Chapter 360 Target Purple Mansion [Subscribe]

"Huh, it finally came out!"

On the white snowfield under the blue sky, Zhou Chun, who had just climbed out of the thick ice below, looked up at the sky and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

It was already the third month since he encountered the collapse and fell to the bottom of the lake.

After capturing the Snow Crystal Worm King, he began his quest to reach the ground.

But the process was not smooth.

It took him nearly a month to dig out this passage leading to the ground, and in the process he damaged a second-tier magic weapon. Even his frequently used [Sun-Shining Golden Wheel] was worn out.

But now all that is in the past.

Anyway, now that he is out, the road ahead is smooth.

Afterwards, Zhou Chun rested for half a day on the snowfield. After recovering his magic power, he rode the golden-winged tiger away from the snowfield.

That’s right, Zhou Chun didn’t plan to bring the Snow Crystal Bug King to exchange for the [Snow Soul Pill] directly as he did when he exchanged the Foundation Establishment Pill before.

He was a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building, and had a foundation building pill on him. Few people would be stupid enough to attack him for this.

But if you bring the Snow Crystal Worm King to exchange for a [Snow Soul Pill], then everything will be difficult to say.

This is not Zhou Chun judging others by his own standards, but something that must be guarded against.

It was as if Lin Hongyu had clearly spent money to buy the spiritual objects that aided in forming the elixir, but still did not dare to leave Xiandu Market with these treasures.

Zhou Chun was not a native cultivator of Yang State, and he had no background in Yang State. The cultivators of Xuepo Palace sold him away without any psychological burden.

Therefore, Zhou Chun had no choice but to leave the Snow Plain, leave Yang State, and find another place to trade with the Xuepo Palace.

A few days later, Zhou Chun returned to the Hongyu Peak stronghold which he had left for more than a year.

At this time, most of the wandering cultivators who had gone to the snowfield to exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill, as long as they were still alive, returned to the stronghold.

But when many of them came back, they found that there was no place for them in the stronghold.

This is the reality. Many times, a wrong choice will cause you to suffer irreparable losses.

Everyone has to pay for their own choices.

Of course, as long as a capable late-stage foundation-building cultivator like Fu Changqing is willing to come back, Lin Wan'er will definitely continue to accept him.

Zhou Chun returned to the base at this time. After having a conversation with Lin Wan'er, he left her a letter and left alone.

This time when he left, Zhou Chun directly returned to the Zhou family with the [Earth Yuan Crystal Jade] ore accumulated in the stronghold.

Twenty days after Zhou Chun left, someone arranged by Lin Wan'er delivered the letter Zhou Chun left behind to Xuepo Palace.

Not to mention what Xuepo Palace will do after receiving the letter left by Zhou Chun.

Zhou Chun's journey from Yangguo to Jingguo was very smooth. It took him only a dozen days to successfully return to the family's mountain gate.

Zhou Mingde was also a little surprised at Zhou Chun's return.

However, when he knew the purpose of Zhou Chun's return this time, he suddenly became happy.

Especially when he learned that Zhou Chun had actually captured a wood spirit in Shen State and tamed it and made it into a spiritual pet, he was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

"Great, great, Zhengchun, you really gave me a big surprise this time!"

Zhou Mingde looked at Zhou Chun with a smile on his face, and immediately asked him to call Mu Mei out for him to see.

After seeing Qinglu, the incarnation of the wood spirit, and witnessing Qinglu's miraculous wood escape technique with his own eyes, Zhou Mingde was so surprised that his mouth opened wide and he was speechless for a long time.

"It really is worthy of being a monster created by the creation of heaven and earth!"

"How can ordinary monsters have such magical powers?"

"Having such a monster as a pet is better than having a dragon!"

He was full of praise for Qinglu and couldn't help but feel envious of Zhou Chun's opportunity.

As for which one is better, a dragon or a monster, every cultivator may have a different opinion.

But in terms of rarity, monsters are undoubtedly much rarer than dragons.

From this point of view, it is not wrong to say that getting a monster is better than getting a dragon.

After all, rare things are valuable!
But if Zhou Chun were asked to choose, he would of course choose both.

The dragons are powerful in combat, can reproduce, and produce dragon blood and spiritual creatures, and are extremely useful.

The magical powers of the monsters are mysterious, and their ability to find medicine and minerals is unmatched. There is almost no limit to their growth, and their uses are infinite.

"I have one more thing to tell you. It's about the jade bead in my dantian. I may know its use!"

Zhou Chun looked at Zhou Mingde, whose face was full of envy, and told him about how the magic weapon automatically protected its master after he was ambushed by the salamander monster.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Zhou Mingde was shocked as he expected, and hurriedly asked him for the details.

Zhou Chun did not hide anything and expressed all his related guesses.

"Zhengchun, you guessed right. As you said, since the jade bead can automatically protect its master when you are in a life-and-death crisis, it must not be an ordinary magic weapon. It must be a spiritual treasure with extremely high spirituality!"

"In that case, the white toad we saw at the beginning must be the spirit of this magic treasure!"

When Zhou Mingde said this, his eyes couldn't help but look at Zhou Chun's dantian in his lower abdomen.

Then he said in a solemn voice with an extremely serious expression: "This matter must be kept strictly confidential. Before you can control this magic treasure, no one other than you and me can know of its existence!"

"I understand, and I will keep it strictly secret."

Zhou Chun nodded, indicating that he knew what was going on.

The man is innocent unless he is in possession of a treasure. How could he not understand this truth?

Lingbao is such a precious thing that not everyone can possess it, even a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage.

If people knew that Zhou Chun, a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building, had such a treasure, not only would he die, but his entire family might also be implicated.

So whether it is for his own sake or for the sake of his family, the fewer people who know about this, the better.

After that, Zhou Chun waited for more than ten days inside the family mountain gate, and finally the person he was waiting for appeared. On this day, a strong aura of a Jindan-stage cultivator suddenly appeared outside the Zhou family mountain gate.

On the Pagoda Peak, after Zhou Chun and Zhou Mingde sensed the undisguised aura of this Jindan-stage cultivator, they immediately quickly soared into the air and left the mountain gate.

When they came out of the mountain gate, they saw a man in blue with a cold temperament floating in the sky. The source of the powerful aura came from this man.

Seeing this, the two of them hurriedly bowed to the man in blue and said, "Juniors Zhou Mingde and Zhou Zhengchun, greetings to the senior."

Facing the two people's greetings, the man in blue had no intention of being polite. He said directly in a cold tone: "I think you know where I come from, so there is no need to waste time. Take out the Snow Crystal Insect King!"

His attitude doesn't make him seem like he's here to do a deal, but rather to rob.

But his cultivation strength was there, and although Zhou Chun and Zhou Mingde were very uncomfortable with his tone, they did not dare to neglect him.

Zhou Chun immediately replied respectfully: "The Snow Crystal Insect King is kept in the family treasury by this junior. I will go and get it for you now."

After saying that, he bowed again to the man in blue, then turned around and flew back into the family’s mountain gate.

Not long after, Zhou Chun returned outside carrying the box containing the Snow Crystal Worm King.

"Senior, please look, what's inside is the Snow Crystal Insect King."

In front of the man in blue, Zhou Chun opened the three-layer box, revealing the Snow Crystal Worm King that was packed in the cold jade box.

I don’t know if it’s because he has been away from his comfortable environment for too long, but the Snow Crystal Insect King now looks quite listless and half-dead.

But after seeing it, the cold-looking man in blue opposite him suddenly had a gleam of light in his eyes, and immediately raised his hand to take the Snow Crystal Worm King in the box in front of him.

Then he raised his hand and patted the storage bag, and took out a white jade bottle magic weapon, and directly sucked the Snow Crystal Insect King into the jade bottle.

Then he waved his sleeves and a beam of white light fell in front of Zhou Chun, revealing a white pill bottle.

"This is our sect's secret recipe, the Snow Soul Pill. Keep it for yourself!"

Seeing this, Zhou Chun heaved a sigh of relief. He quickly reached out and grabbed the pill bottle. He bowed to the man in blue and thanked him, "Thank you, senior."

I thought the man in blue would leave here.

Unexpectedly, the other party looked at him and said, "Where the Snow Crystal Insect King is, there are usually rare treasures. Can you tell me where that place is?"

Hearing this, Zhou Chun hurriedly explained, "Senior, please understand. When I was exploring the ice cave, I fell to the bottom of the Sun-Crystal Lake due to an accidental collapse. Then I entered the ice cave where the Snow Crystal Insect King was. Although the cold air in that place was extremely dense and pure, I did not find any rare treasures."

After that, he continued, "Please wait a moment, senior. I will draw a map for you right away."

After a while, Zhou Chun marked the location of the ice cave he had dug to escape on the snowfield map and handed the map to the man in blue.

At the same time, he said, "There were still many snow crystal insects there, but I was only focused on capturing the Snow Crystal Insect King and didn't have the energy to capture them."

Hearing what he said, the man in blue seemed to understand what he meant. He glanced at him and said calmly, "If you still have snow crystal bugs, you can take them out. I will pay you one thousand spirit coins each!"

One thousand spirit coins for a snow crystal worm, which is much lower than the reward offered by the Xuepo Palace at that time.

But Zhou Chun knew that it was a special case and deserved special treatment, so he did not complain about the low price at this time. He quickly took out forty snow crystal insects he had caught and handed them to the other party in exchange for forty thousand spirit coins.

As for the remaining ten snow crystal worms, Zhou Chun planned to put them into the ice cave in the wilderness to see if they could reproduce there.

If successful, this will be another stable source of income in the future.

After completing the two transactions, the man in blue from Xuepo Palace left without even leaving his name.

After Zhou Chun and Zhou Mingde returned to the mountain gate, they also started a discussion about the [Snow Soul Pill] they had obtained.

Zhou Mingde said first: "Although this [Snow Soul Pill] is a magical pill that can help open up the Purple Palace, it is hard to say how effective it is. In my opinion, Zhengchun, you should wait a few more years until you find another magical item to use with more confidence."

This is a safe strategy and it is also for Zhou Chun's sake.

But Zhou Chun has his own opinion.

Zhou Chun slowly said, "The [Snow Soul Pill] is an auxiliary elixir used by the disciples of the Snow Soul Palace to open up the Purple Palace. It can be determined by a large sect like the Snow Soul Palace as a must-have elixir for its disciples to open up the Purple Palace. It can be seen that its effect must be excellent, and it will not be worse than the [Mysterious Heart Purple Return Pill] refined by the three major sects."

"So I thought I could give it a try first, maybe it would work!"

Just like a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage who has a Foundation Establishment Pill in his hand, he will not be able to resist the temptation and not take it.

Now that Zhou Chun has obtained a treasure like the [Snow Soul Pill], and his own cultivation is enough to impact the Purple Mansion, he certainly wants to give it a try.

In fact, Zhou Chun himself has his own unique confidence in opening up the Purple Mansion.

After all, he is different from ordinary people, and his soul comes from another world.

When a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage opens up the Purple Palace and manifests his spirit and soul, he is actually awakening the human soul and causing it to move to the Purple Palace, becoming the central existence that controls everything.

After Zhou Chun understood the process of opening up the Purple Palace, he had a feeling that it might be much easier for him to open up the Purple Palace than for others.

Because his soul itself should have been awakened, what was lacking was just to break through the Niwan Palace in the upper Dantian and open up the Purple Mansion.

However, these were secrets that concerned his most fundamental nature and could not be revealed to outsiders. At this point he could only argue with reason and use firm words to convince his elder Zhou Mingde.

In the end, Zhou Mingde was convinced by him.

"Forget it! Since you are determined to do this, can I still stop you by force? I just hope you can act cautiously and not force success in one go!"

Zhou Mingde shook his head with a wry smile and could only agree with Zhou Chun's decision.

Although he is an elder, he cannot forcibly stop the younger generations from reaching higher levels. He can only try his best to persuade them.

If persuasion fails, then you can only agree.

In order to reassure him, Zhou Chun nodded seriously and said, "Don't worry, I am not a reckless person. If I really cannot do it, I will stop in time!"

However, opening up the Purple Palace is not something that can be done overnight. Even if you succeed, you will need to practice meditation for a year or so to consolidate your cultivation.

Moreover, for Zhou Chun, opening up the Purple Palace is not the most dangerous thing. The most dangerous thing is, instead, the problem of breaking the cauldron and recasting it when practicing the second chapter of "The Mysterious Art of the Golden Cauldron" after opening up the Purple Palace.

If you fail at this level, the tripod will be destroyed and you will die. There is no chance of luck at all.

Therefore, before he actually began to retreat and open up the Purple Palace, he still had a lot of preparatory work to do.

In addition, the Hongyu Peak stronghold of Yang State must also give Lin Wan'er a safety guarantee to prevent the previous incident from happening again.
