Chapter 528: Chapter 137: Zhou Xun: Truly Daoist Brother Tianci!

"True Monarch Tianci, could it be Daoist Brother Tianci!"

More than thirty years ago, Zhou Xun personally sent Master Tianci to the Central Continent Cultivation Realm,

He was at Peak Core Formation Cultivation at the time,

Although he only had a few decades of lifespan left, with his Celestial Spirit Root, it was possible for him to succeed in Nascent Soul Formation.

Besides, Zhou Xun had wandered in the Central Continent for many years and had never heard of the title "Tianci."

The more Zhou Xun thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

Thus, he reached for his waist, took out a Sound Transmission Talisman, whispered a few words, and then tossed it into the air,

The Sound Transmission Talisman turned into a flame and flew out of the cave mansion.

Before long, Luo Yuancheng arrived at Zhou Xun’s cave mansion.

"Greetings, Elder Wang!"

Luo Yuancheng bowed deeply, showing great respect to Zhou Xun.

Not only because Zhou Xun was powerful, but also because Zhou Xun had saved their Celestial Talisman Sect from peril.

At this time, Luo Yuancheng had reached the Seventh-Layer Foundation Establishment, his aura even stronger than before.

"Not bad, I remember you’re just over eighty this year, right?" Zhou Xun asked with a smile,

"Eighty-two, thanks to the elixirs given by you, Elder, that my progress has been so rapid!" the young man replied with cupped hands.

"I reckon in no more than forty years, you could reach Foundation Establishment Peak and attempt Core Formation. By then, your master will be relieved!"

Zhou Xun nodded slightly, then began advising Luo Yuancheng on his cultivation issues.

This young man was honest and sincere, similar to Zhou Xun’s first disciple, Zhou Jingsong, which made Zhou Xun fond of him,

He often gifted him elixirs and offered cultivation guidance.

After resolving all his doubts, Zhou Xun finally mentioned the reason he had called him over.

"You are responsible for the intelligence of the Celestial Talisman Sect. Do you have more detailed information about this ’True Monarch Tianci’?"

"True Monarch Tianci?"

Luo Yuancheng thought for a moment with his head down, then shook his head, saying:

"Forgive me, Elder, but about True Monarch Tianci, I only know he came to Sea Suppression Immortal City three years ago; I know nothing else!"

"No matter!"

Zhou Xun waved his hand, having already anticipated this result, and continued:

"I called you for another matter: to arrange someone to investigate True Monarch Tianci thoroughly, regarding his appearance, cultivation, and so on, as detailed as possible!"

"Yes, I will handle it right away!"

Luo Yuancheng bowed, noting that Zhou Xun rarely had matters to inquire about, which he had not adequately prepared for at the moment, but now he naturally had a way to spare no effort.

...

Celestial Talisman Island is not close to Sea Suppression Immortal City, coupled with the current Human-Demon War, making travel very inconvenient.

It would take at least half a year for Luo Yuancheng to gather information and send it back to Celestial Talisman Island at the fastest.

Thus, after he left, Zhou Xun entered closed-door cultivation once more.

Two months later, in the cultivation room, Zhou Xun sat cross-legged on the ground, his eyes suddenly opened,

With a thought, a small blue flying wing flew out from his body, suspended before Zhou Xun, its surface flashing with thunder arcs, its spirit charm circulating, making it immediately appear extraordinary.

"After twenty years of sacrificial refining, its power is close to great success!"

It had been twenty-four years since Zhou Xun first refined the Thunderbolt Wings,

Zhou Xun summoned it today naturally for the eighth sacrificial refining.

Zhou Xun formed a spell with his hands, casting one spirit light after another on the Thunderbolt Wings in front of him, drawing arcs of thunder.

It had been twenty-four years since Zhou Xun first refined the Thunderbolt Wings,

Zhou Xun summoned it today naturally for the eighth sacrificial refining.

Zhou Xun formed a spell with his hands, casting one spirit light after another on the Thunderbolt Wings in front of him, drawing arcs of thunder, while continuously casting magic,

The thunder light on the Thunderbolt Wings became increasingly dazzling, and the wings began to tremble slightly.

Zhou Xun’s face grew solemn as he took a deep breath, muttering incantations under his breath,

while casting the spell more frequently with his hands.

Suddenly—

A burst of dazzling thunder light covered the entire wing, emitting a powerful energy wave.

Then, without hesitation, Zhou Xun released his divine sense, enveloping the Thunderbolt Wings, constantly cleansing and refining,

Beads of sweat appeared on Zhou Xun’s forehead, but a gleam of excitement sparkled in his eyes.

He could feel that the Thunderbolt Wings after this sacrificial refining were stronger than ever before,

Three days later, the Thunderbolt Wings let out a crisp cry, as if it gained spirituality.

Seeing this, Zhou Xun revealed a satisfied smile.

"In three years, the last sacrificial refining, and these Thunderbolt Wings will be successfully refined!"

Saying so, he opened his mouth and absorbed the Thunderbolt Wings into his dantian for nurturing.

...

Time flew by, and another six months passed.

On this day, Zhou Xun was cultivating inside the cave mansion,

When suddenly a flame flew in from outside, hovering above the array, Zhou Xun flicked his finger, sending spirit light to the talisman.

"Luo Yuancheng requests an audience!"

"Yuancheng?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xun’s heart stirred,

"Could it be he has probed the news of True Monarch Tianci!"

Zhou Xun immediately ceased his spell, stepping out of the cultivation room.

...

"Greetings, Elder, Yuancheng hasn’t let you down!" Luo Yuancheng strode into the cave mansion, his face beaming with joy.

"Hahaha, I knew it, Yuancheng would surely not disappoint my expectations!"

"Come, have a seat and talk!"

Zhou Xun gestured to the stone table in front of him.

"Yes!"

After Luo Yuancheng sat down, he flipped his hand, taking out a Jade Scroll and handing it to Zhou Xun,

"All the information about True Monarch Tianci is in this Jade Scroll, I ask Elder to review it!"

"Yuancheng’s been through hardship, have a taste of my Spiritual Mist Tea!" Zhou Xun said as he took the Jade Scroll in hand, his divine sense probing into it to start reviewing.

"True Monarch Tianci, from the Central Continent Cultivation Realm, Early-Stage Nascent Soul Cultivation..."

When Zhou Xun saw the engraved appearance of True Monarch Tianci in the Jade Scroll,

clean features, gray hair, a Confucian scholar’s attire, giving off a sense of goodwill at first glance.

"Daoist Brother, it really is you!"

Zhou Xun couldn’t help but smile, surprised that both of them had come to this Land of the South Sea.

However, since Master Tianci had come to the South Sea, he wondered if Master Iron Mountain was also here.

After all, back then, the two of them had left together.

Thus he spoke to Luo Yuancheng before him:

"This True Monarch Tianci is an old friend of mine, I didn’t expect him to also come to the South Sea, I wish for you to make a trip to Sea Suppression Immortal City,"

"Would you deliver a letter to him for me?"

"With Elders’ instructions, Yuancheng will fully commit!" Luo Yuancheng assured.

"Good!"

"Please wait a moment!"

Saying this, Zhou Xun took out a Blank Jade Scroll, imprinting it with his divine sense, completing it after half a cup of tea’s time,

Then he formed a spell with his hands, placing a restriction on the Jade Scroll.

"Remember to hand this letter to True Monarch Tianci personally, to gain trust, you may say the phrase ’Do you still remember the old friend from Tianhan thirty years ago!’ when the time comes!"

Saying this, Zhou Xun handed the Jade Scroll and a Tier Three Low-Grade Escape Talisman to the young man.

"Here is also a Tier Three Escape Talisman, to ensure your safety!"

...

After Luo Yuancheng left, Zhou Xun did not continue his closed-door cultivation.

Because he had been sacrificially refining the Spirit Plant "Profound Jade Lotus" for fifteen years, and it had also been stagnant at Tier Four Top-Grade for several years.

A few days ago, this Spirit Plant suddenly showed a sign of change,

As if it was about to advance again!
