Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 367: Chapter 115: A Letter from an Old Friend

”Please!”

Zhou Xun gestured to the Spirit Tea in front of him and spoke politely.

”Junior brother’s skill in brewing Spirit Tea is truly extraordinary!” Zhou Buqi marveled.

He was a tea lover himself, and seeing such a unique technique made his heart itch with curiosity.

Xing Huai’an was even more amazed at the spectacle.

”Junior brother, with such a place as this, enjoying the scenery, sipping Spirit Tea, tending to Spirit Grass at leisure, watching flowers bloom and wither, clouds roll and spread, isn’t this the lifestyle of a true Immortal?”

”Senior brother praises me too much!”

The four of them were soon utterly enraptured by the aroma of the Spiritual Mist Tea.

Afterwards, Zhou Xun also treated them to Tier Two Red Spirit Dragon Fish, complemented by Quasi-Third Tier’s Peach Blossom Brew. It was a feast where host and guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves!

After the meal, everyone began discussing serious matters.

”Junior brother, we are here first to visit you, and second to discuss the rebuilding of White Cloud Immortal City!”

Xing Huai’an, leader among the three, spoke first.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xun wasn’t surprised. They mainly came for matters concerning White Cloud Immortal City.

If not, there would have been no need to return to Xui Country.

”I wonder where senior brother plans to rebuild, as the White Cloud Spiritual Vein is too damaged. It might take hundreds of years before it can recover!”

Zhou Xun sighed.

”Upon our return, Junior Martial Uncle Nanyue gifted us a set of arrays to stabilize the Spiritual Vein, but it can only restore it to Tier Two Low-Grade at best, making rebuilding on the White Cloud Spiritual Vein site quite difficult!”

”Our idea is to first establish a small market on the original site, and with this array, the restoration speed of the Spiritual Vein would be quicker,”

”I estimate it might take about two hundred years,”

”However, during this time, we may need to rely on your place for cultivation!”

Xing Huai’an cupped his hands as he spoke.

”Senior brother, feel free to stay here as for the matter of the Immortal City,”

Zhou Xun paused in his speech and continued:

”I am also a disciple of our master. Isn’t my Immortal City the White Cloud Immortal City? Currently, in the ancestral hall within the city, aren’t we worshiping our master, Master White Cloud!”

Upon hearing this, Xing Huai’an felt a trace of shame, stood up, and performed a deep bow.

”In that case, senior brother thanks you!”

Zhou Xun did not dodge or evade this.

As Master White Cloud’s recognized heir, Xing Huai’an bears the responsibility of reviving the lineage of White Cloud Immortal City,

Yet now, it is Zhou Xun who has revitalized this lineage, effectively taking on Xing Huai’an’s responsibility.

Thus, accepting his bow was appropriate!

...

After everyone dispersed, Zhou Xun returned to his Cave Mansion.

Soon, Xing Huai’an came to visit alone.

In the Cave Mansion’s living room, Zhou Xun and Xing Huai’an sat facing each other.

”Thank you for what happened back then!” Xing Huai’an performed a deep bow, cupping his hands in salute!

He was naturally referring to the time when Zhou Xun saved him back then!

”We are fellow disciples, no need for such formality, besides, without that Crystal Condensing Pill back then, I couldn’t have successfully formed a core.” Zhou Xun waved his hand!

Senior Brother Xing being able to understand this saved him trouble.

”This time, my return to Xui Country is also for another matter!”

With this, he took out a letter and handed it to Zhou Xun.

”What is this?”

”This was entrusted to me by Junior Martial Uncle Nanyue, specifically to be delivered to you. It is said that this letter is also related to Master Tianci!”

Xing Huai’an explained.

Master Tianci was someone Zhou Xun had heard of, reputed as the Eastern Wilderness’s Number One Cultivator, with Peak Core Formation cultivation.

”He is indeed a Celestial Spirit Root Cultivator, if born six thousand years ago, would surely have been a True Monarch Nascent Soul!”

Speaking of Master Tianci, Xing Huai’an was full of admiration, clearly viewing him as a personal goal.

”Senior brother also knows about events from six thousand years ago?”

Zhou Xun grew eager in his heart, having investigated this for many years. If he could gain information from Xing Huai’an, it would truly be worth it.

”All I know is that six thousand years ago, the Eastern Wilderness experienced a major calamity, and since then, we have been unable to produce Nascent Soul Cultivators!”

Xing Huai’an honestly shared all he knew.

Seeing that Zhou Xun didn’t seem to get what he wanted, he added:

”If Junior brother wants to know more, you can go to Tianhan City, where Junior Martial Uncle Nanyue and Senior Tianci should know more!”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xun nodded:

”Thank you, senior brother. If I have the time, I will definitely make a trip!”

”If there is nothing else, I will take my leave!”

With that, Xing Huai’an departed.

After seeing Xing Huai’an to the door, Zhou Xun returned to his Cave Mansion.

He picked up the letter on the desk and examined it closely.

Contrary to Zhou Xun’s expectations, the letter was authored by four individuals.

Aside from Master Nanyue, the others were not familiar to him, particularly Master Dan Ding and Master Iron Mountain, whom he had never heard of.

The letter introduced these four individuals.

It turns out they were among the Four Great Elders of Tianhan City, with Master Nanyue ranked third.

Moreover, each of the four was a master in their respective skills.

Master Tianci was a Tier Three High-Grade Talisman Dao Master.

The letter recounted the history of Tianhan City.

This city had existed for ten thousand years, always serving as the City of Loose Cultivators!

Besides Master Tianci’s lineage, the elders of Tianhan City were composed of Loose Cultivators from various places in the Eastern Wilderness!

For example, Master Nanyue was invited to Tianhan City to serve as an elder due to his outstanding array skills.

Even Master White Cloud was once invited.

However, Master White Cloud was determined to return to Xui Country, which is why he declined Master Tianci’s invitation, but he was inspired by Tianhan City to subsequently establish White Cloud Immortal City.

And the reason why Master Tianci and others wrote to Zhou Xun was to invite him to Tianhan City.

Master Tianci described in detail the sensation of lacking a certain material during his own core formation, which was the reason he could not form an Immortal Golden Core.

And since the significant event six thousand years ago, this material had been absent in the Eastern Wilderness.

As a Cultivator with a Half-Step Golden Core, Master Tianci had been searching tirelessly for a way to leave the Eastern Wilderness over several centuries.

If Zhou Xun was willing to go to Tianhan City, he would share all the information he had gathered over the years regarding the events of six thousand years ago and the clues to leaving the Eastern Wilderness,

all without cost to Zhou Xun.

And this information was why Master Tianci was confident that Zhou Xun would surely go after reading the letter.

Because he knew how crucial it would be for a Cultivator with a Half-Step Golden Core to understand what happened six thousand years ago.

How important the clues to leaving the Eastern Wilderness were.

After finishing the letter, Zhou Xun remained silent for a long time.

Undoubtedly, Master Tianci’s words moved him!

His main body was about to reach Foundation Establishment Peak, ready to attempt core formation, but due to the issue in the Eastern Wilderness, Zhou Xun could only choose to stagnate.

He was unwilling to form merely a Half-Step Golden Core again.

”Perhaps, it’s time to step outside and see the world!”

In the end, Zhou Xun decided to go, coincidentally in five years there would be the grand event held every fifty years in Tianhan City.

At that time, most cultivators of the Eastern Wilderness would gather in Tianhan City to exchange information.

Many rare treasures would appear, including Crystal Condensing Pills, Middle-Grade Magical Treasures, Top-Grade Spirit Medicines, and other Spiritual Objects.

Thus, Zhou Xun decided to set out for Tianhan City in four years!
