Beast-controlling fairy clan.

Chapter 21: Pills and Magical Instruments

Although Mu Xuanfeng was being polite, he was asking Zhou Chun to leave the Mu family.

But how could Zhou Chun not understand the meaning of the word "please" and he did not dare to oppose his "good intentions".

So before he could even get comfortable in the Mu family, and even before he had time to say hello to Mu Ziying, Mu Yunqing and other Mu family cultivators with whom he had a decent relationship, he was personally taken to the Zhou family in Jiufengling by Mu Xuanfeng.

After arriving at Jiufeng Ridge, Zhou Chun, a cultivator from the Zhou family, was left waiting outside the "Zhongping Hall".

He waited for nearly half an hour before he saw Zhou Daoyi, the head of the Zhou family, escorting Mu Xuanfeng out of the hall with a smile on his face, and then he came back after escorting him to the outside of the mountain gate.

After returning to the "Zhongping Hall", Zhou Daoyi called Zhou Chun, who was waiting outside the hall, into the hall and told him about the arrangements for him.

"Fellow Daoist Mu Xuanfeng has told me about what happened to the Mu family. Zhengchun, you have indeed worked hard this time. I and the family will remember your contribution to the family."

"Take my token and go to Baiyao Peak to find the Great Elder to receive a bottle of [Spring Yang Pill] and three bottles of [Shouling Pill] as the family's reward for your mission."

"From now on, you should stay in the family and practice well. If there are other tasks, I will summon you again."

This arrangement was not unexpected to Zhou Chun himself and was considered a very normal arrangement.

And the rewards he was given were very good, all what he needed.

He immediately bowed and thanked her, "Thank you for the reward, Chief."

Then he left Pagoda Peak with the token given by Zhou Daoyi.

Afterwards, Zhou Chun did not rush to Baiyao Peak where the family elder was to collect the elixir, but first returned to his residence on Baozhi Peak.

Zhou Chun had not been back for more than a year, and many dead branches and leaves had fallen into the air in his residence, and a layer of dust had settled on the tables and chairs.

Seeing this, he opened the doors and windows, made a gesture with his hands, and with a "dust removal technique" all the dust on the tables, chairs and benches fell off, and was blown to the yard outside by a breeze.

Looking at the much cleaner and brighter room, Zhou Chun nodded with satisfaction, closed the doors and windows again, and began to count his harvest.

He opened the storage bag that Mu Xuanfeng gave him and poured out everything inside.

To Zhou Chun's surprise, there were actually quite a lot of things inside.

In addition to the few magical instruments that he cared about, there were also talismans, books, spirit coins, clothes and other things used by cultivators.

This shows that Mu Xuanfeng really did not touch anything in the storage bag.

"Indeed, as the head of the Mu family, this little thing is nothing to him. Why should he be so stingy and make others laugh at him?"

After Zhou Chun figured it out, he couldn't help but laugh, realizing that he had been a little mean.

Shaking his head, he immediately counted the pile of things on the ground.

In addition to the magic weapons, there were seven magic talismans on the ground, including five first-level low-grade magic talismans and two first-level mid-grade magic talismans.

The other books include a book of exercises and notes on personal practice experience, as well as several classics that record knowledge about related elixirs and monsters.

There are also fifty-seven spirit coins.

As for the magic weapons, there are four in total, namely the bamboo leaf flying magic weapon that Zhou Chun has seen, the black iron shield magic weapon, the silver-white short sword magic weapon, and a black long knife magic weapon.

Among these four magic weapons, the bamboo leaf flying magic weapon is equivalent to a first-level mid-grade magic weapon, the iron shield magic weapon and the short sword magic weapon are both first-level mid-grade magic weapons, and the black long sword magic weapon is only a first-level low-grade magic weapon.

After Zhou Chun checked several magical instruments at this time, he immediately started to refine three first-grade medium-quality magical instruments.

If a cultivator wants to use the magical instrument as he wishes, he must first leave the imprint of his own spiritual consciousness in the instrument and then use his magic power to refine it.

The spiritual imprints left by the original owners of the three magic weapons in Zhou Chun's hands have been erased. It should be done by Mu Xuanfeng, the head of the Mu family. This saves him a lot of trouble.

Otherwise, with his cultivation level of the seventh level of Qi Refining Stage, if he wanted to erase the imprint of the consciousness of the middle-aged man in yellow, he would have to concentrate his energy and spend at least several days.

At this time, he only needs to use the magic formula of refining the magic weapon to leave the imprint of his own spiritual consciousness in the magic weapon, and then inject his own magic power to flush out the remaining breath of the previous owner in the magic weapon.

In this way, it took Zhou Chun less than two days to complete the refining of the three magic weapons.

The power of the new magic weapon also made Zhou Chun very satisfied.

That silver dagger is extremely sharp. When wielded, it can generate sharp sword light to kill the enemy. If it is not a magic weapon of the same grade, it is difficult to resist its sharpness.

The jet-black iron shield is even more mysterious. After being refined, it can fly back and forth to protect the owner as he wishes. Except for the fact that it cannot protect the whole body, its defensive power is much better than the first-level intermediate spell "Vajra Shield".

The key is that as long as the magic weapon is not damaged, it can be used all the time, while spells and magic symbols are time-limited. As for the flying magic weapon, because it is too conspicuous, Zhou Chun did not dare to fly it to a high altitude to try it. He just found an open space outside the yard and flew a few circles. It felt very good.

In fact, the effect of this thing on him is greater than that on any other cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage.

Because other Qi Refining cultivators have to worry about the consumption of their mana when they are outside, they dare not use this thing to fly and travel.

But he can just sit in meditation in the wild to restore his mana without worrying about mana depletion.

However, using this thing to fly and travel was indeed a bit eye-catching. Zhou Chun's current cultivation level might not be enough to intimidate those bandit cultivators.

Therefore, his idea of ​​how to use this thing was similar to that of the middle-aged man in yellow, and it was only used in certain emergency situations.

After refining and trying out the new magic weapon, Zhou Chun suddenly remembered that he had something else to do, so he hurried to do it.

He walked into the yard with a stone jar of purifying spiritual water and fed half of the jar directly to the rock turtle that was sleeping beside the gate.

It is interesting to note that rock turtles basically do not drink water and only rely on eating tree bark and leaves to obtain water.

However, the purifying spiritual water was an exception. Zhou Chun did not feel any taste when he drank this water. It seemed that he could taste a flavor that Zhou Chun could not feel, and it basically accepted all flavors.

Zhou Chun was also happy to see this happen.

Although according to the research and comparison of senior immortal cultivators, the monsters are not as affected by the turbid evil energy as the immortal cultivators, but they will also be affected.

Therefore, even if there are no immortal cultivators feeding them various elixirs and spiritual objects, the monsters that grow up in places without turbid evil energy will be faster than those in the wild, have a much gentler temperament, and even be smarter.

In this case, cultivators who usually raise spiritual pets will try their best to prevent their pets from absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the wild, so as to prevent them from being contaminated by the foul evil energy.

However, monsters do not have the same control over this aspect as cultivators. Even if low-level monsters have orders from their masters, once they use spells and consume their mana, they will more or less passively absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to replenish their mana. This is their bloodline innate instinct, and it is difficult for them to control it.

Zhou Chun's Rock Turtle had fought in the wild before, and naturally absorbed the spiritual energy that was tainted with turbid evil energy.

Although the amount of turbid evil energy was relatively small, he still didn't want the Rock Turtle to be affected, so he gave it purifying spiritual water to remove the turbid evil energy from its body.

After ensuring that the turbid and evil energy in the rock turtle's body was purified, Zhou Chun patted the rock turtle's head, which conveyed a feeling of happiness and satisfaction to him, and left the yard.

Next, he should go to Baiyao Peak to receive the elixir rewarded to him by clan leader Zhou Daoyi.

Baiyao Peak is located twelve miles south of Pagoda Peak. It is a mountain with very rich spiritual energy, second only to Pagoda Peak.

Compared with other peaks of Jiufeng Ridge, the soil environment of Baiyao Peak is more suitable for growing various spiritual medicines. Therefore, after the Zhou family occupied Jiufeng Ridge, they used this peak as the family's future spiritual medicine garden and let the family's eldest elder Zhou Mingshan sit in charge of this peak.

As the eldest elder of the Zhou family, Zhou Mingshan is the oldest man in the Zhou family whose seniority and cultivation are second only to the supreme elder Zhou Mingde, and he has a very high status.

Moreover, he is currently the person with the best alchemy skills in the Zhou family. Most of the elixirs taken by the Zhou family's cultivators and pets are made by him.

Unfortunately, as far as Zhou Chun knows, the old man of the Zhou family has very little time left and may pass away within ten years.

Therefore, unless it was a particularly important matter, members of the Zhou family rarely saw the great elder leave Baiyao Peak.

Zhou Chun arrived at Baiyao Peak at this time. After reporting his purpose, an alchemy apprentice who received him passed the message to the great elder Zhou Mingshan on his behalf.

While he was waiting outside the door, he also took the opportunity to look around Baiyao Peak.

When the medicinal fields were first being developed, Zhou Chun also came to Baiyao Peak to work and turned the soil.

Two years have passed at this time, and the newly opened medicinal fields have been planted with magical medicinal seeds. Green seedlings can be seen emerging from the soil in many of the medicinal fields. Some fast-growing species are even more than one foot tall.

At a glance, Zhou Chun easily recognized common medicinal herbs such as ginseng, polygonatum, polygonum multiflorum, and poria cocos.

These medicinal herbs look no different from those with the same name sold in ordinary mortal pharmacies, but in fact they are excellent spiritual species that have been screened and cultivated by immortal cultivators, and the mother plants are all high-quality century-old spiritual medicines.

After growing for twenty to thirty years in the medicinal field, they can be used as medicinal herbs. When they grow to a hundred years old, they become extremely valuable century-old medicinal herbs.

For any immortal cultivation force with a long heritage, the spiritual medicine garden is one of the greatest treasures and one of the most important places.

When the Three Absolute Sect evacuated Feng Country, the spiritual medicine garden that had been passed down for thousands of years was the priority target for transfer.

But now when Zhou Chun looked at the tender seedlings in the various medicinal fields on Baiyao Peak, he knew in his heart that those rare elixirs transferred away from the Sanjue Sect were probably divided up by the three forces with Jindan-stage cultivators in charge.

From this point of view, although the Zhou family is nominally a family of immortal cultivation with a heritage of more than a thousand years, apart from the family-inherited beast-taming techniques and some manuals on martial arts, in terms of spiritual medicine resources and mineral resources, it is no different from a newly established family. Everything has to start from scratch and be accumulated again.
