Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal-Chapter 396 - 5: True Monarch’s Bounty!

"Not only is there a reward of five million Spirit Stones, but you can also get in the good graces of the True Monarch of Profound Control. Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Brother Qin, are you interested?"

The big man’s eyes were burning as he looked at the elder.

"This..."

"This person managed to escape from the True Monarch of Profound Control. His means are probably not ordinary!" the elder hesitated.

As the saying goes, Spirit Stones are good, but you need to be alive to spend them.

If you hit a steel board, things could get ugly!

He once heard a saying from ancient texts:

"The high-end hunter often appears in the form of prey!"

By then, who is the hunter and who is the prey might not be certain!

Seeing the elder’s hesitation, the big man became anxious and said:

"Could it be that years of Cultivation have made Brother Qin timid? Both of us have reached the Peak of Middle-Stage Core Formation Cultivation,"

"No matter how strong that person is, he won’t exceed Late-Stage Core Formation!"

"Even if we can’t defeat him, together, it won’t be hard to save our lives!"

"Moreover, the True Monarch of Profound Control’s reward makes it clear that the person’s Cultivation isn’t high, only at Early-Stage Core Formation. He escaped merely using the legendary Shifting Talisman!"

"This person has such a treasure as a Shifting Talisman, maybe there are other Treasures of Heaven and Earth in his Storage Bag!"

If not for Zhou Xun escaping with his life from the True Monarch of Profound Control, he would have gone alone!

Hearing the big man speak so, the elder also made his decision!

"Fine, in that case, let’s go on this journey!"

The big man was overjoyed when he heard this,

"With Brother Qin’s help, the great cause is certain!"

"But there’s something to say beforehand, since this matter started with me, and I also took out a twenty thousand Spirit Stone intelligence fee,

"after obtaining the reward, I need to take ten percent more, I take fifty-five percent, and you take forty-five percent,"

"As for the spoils of war, we split them evenly, how about it?"

The elder listened and did some calculations; forty-five percent would be two million two hundred fifty thousand Spirit Stones!

"Alright, Brother Zhu has put in a lot of effort, you should take more!"

"Good, Brother Qin is straightforward,"

"Brother Qin, look, here is the information on that person!"

The big man was very happy to hear this, then took out the information delivered by Wind and Cloud Tower and began to study it!

...

Zhou Xun purchased the solution to the ’Blood Shadow Technique’ and, without further delay, left Qingyang Square and flew straight towards the largest Immortal City in Zheng Country—Luoyuan Immortal City.

Luoyuan Immortal City belongs to Luoyuan Sect.

And Luoyuan, is one of the ten major righteous sects in the Central Continent Cultivation Realm, with four True Monarch Nascent Souls in the sect, including the Grand Elder, True Monarch Fengqi, who is a Middle-Stage Nascent Soul Cultivator.

As an important sect on the righteous side, within its jurisdiction of Luoyuan Immortal City, there is a Teleportation Array,

allowing travel to other Immortal Cities of righteous forces in the Central Continent!

His trip was to use the Teleportation Array of Luoyuan Immortal City to get away from here!

After flying five hundred miles from Qingyang Square, Zhou Xun summoned the Earth Element Beast and sat on its back,

taking out the two Jade Scrolls and began to check them:

The so-called Blood Shadow Technique was a Magic created by a Powerful Cultivator to protect sect members and disciples,

If someone kills the one who cast the Blood Shadow Technique, this Magic, like a worm that attaches to bones, will attach to the killer,

As long as the killer is within three thousand miles of the caster, they will be discovered, and within ten thousand miles, their approximate location can be tracked!

Moreover, as the caster’s Cultivation level increases, the distance this Magic can detect becomes farther!

It is said that a Divinity Transformation Cultivator using this Magic can reach hundreds of thousands of miles!

Seeing this, Zhou Xun called it a narrow escape,

Fortunately, the distance of his Shifting Talisman was just three thousand miles, plus he kept using the Thunder Escape Technique, barely escaping the pursuit of the True Monarch of Profound Control.

"It seems that, without resolving this ’Blood Shadow Technique’ in the short term, I cannot return here!"

Zhou Xun continued to look down,

The preventive method for Blood Shadow Technique requires Top-Grade Tier Four Bodhi Wood Leaves, and Tier Four High-Grade Brahma Flower,

Refined into a Protective Talisman, it can block the Blood Shadow Technique once!

And there are three solutions, one is to consume a Top-Grade Tier Four Bodhi Fruit, the second is the Celestial Pure Water that Zhou Xun consumed many years ago,

And another method is to combine with a Female Cultivator possessing a Purifying True Spirit Body and use its Power of Yin Essence, which can also solve the Blood Shadow Technique!

Seeing this, Zhou Xun frowned!

These three methods are not easy to achieve!

Not to mention the Top-Grade Tier Four Bodhi Tree, the Spirit Fruit it bears can enhance a cultivator’s Comprehension in a short time, even Nascent Soul Cultivators would be eager for it!

It’s unlikely it would fall to him!

As for Celestial Pure Water, it is a heaven-defying item that can enhance a cultivator’s Mana Foundation. It was already a great fortune for him to have obtained a bottle back then.

He doesn’t dare to hope for a second bottle!

As for the Purifying True Spirit Body, it’s extremely rare. Zhou Xun only saw it in an Ancient Classic back then, or he wouldn’t have known its name.

"It seems that the Blood Shadow Technique can’t be resolved in the short term, so it’s best to leave here as soon as possible!"

Saying this, he put away the Jade Scrolls.

At this moment, Zhou Xun’s expression changed, and he stopped the Earth Element Beast!

Mana surged around his body, and the Middle-Grade Defense Treasure Golden Cloud Disc instantly flew out,

hovering above Zhou Xun’s head, emitting a golden light shield that enveloped him, giving him a full sense of security!

Zhou Xun looked serious as he stared ahead.

"For what purpose do you two Daoist friends block my path?"

Before Zhou Xun, two figures gradually emerged from a thousand-zhang distance.

It was the Big Man surnamed Zhu and Elder Qin!

Seeing the Earth Element Beast in front of Zhou Xun and sensing Zhou Xun’s Early-Stage Core Formation Cultivation, the big man laughed heartily:

"Not bad, not bad, the Earth Element Beast is indeed the mount of Feng Yuee, True Monarch of Profound Control’s favored disciple. Combined with this person’s Early-Stage Core Formation Cultivation, he must be the one with the reward!"

"Brother Qin, today, we are destined to make a fortune!"

The elder stroked his beard and laughed. This trip, not to mention the reward of more than two million Spirit Stones, with this person’s Storage Bag, Magical Artifacts, and Earth Element Beast,

The gain is at least over three million Spirit Stones!

This trip indeed was the right one to take!

"What Brother Zhu says is true. This time, I owe you a favor!"

Seeing these two talking to themselves, Zhou Xun snorted coldly, opened his mouth, and twenty-four Thunder Seeds shot out, occupying hundreds of zhang.

If not for Zhou Xun previously losing five Thunder Seeds to escape the True Monarch of Profound Control’s pursuit,

relying solely on the Purple Sky True Thunder Array, would let these two drink plenty!"

"Brother Qin, that Earth Element Beast is Tier Three Middle-Grade, I’ll leave it to you, and as for that man, leave him to me!"

The big man said while looking at Zhou Xun, eyes like he was looking at prey.

"Hahaha, I’ve long wanted to witness Brother Zhu’s Flaming True Technique, today my wish is fulfilled!" the elder laughed, then waved his hand,

A floating dust rose, transformed into more than ten zhang, and then countless strands of thin silk flew, attacking the Earth Element Beast!

And that Big Man surnamed Zhu, as Mana surged from him, immediately nine bright yellow flames flew out, encircling him!

Then a fiery red large blade flew out and instantly absorbed the nine flames.

The flames surged, wrapping the large blade,

then came killing towards Zhou Xun!
