Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 476: Chapter 85: Encountering an Old Friend in the Secret Realm

Zhou Xun reached for his waist, and two beams of light flew out and landed in front of him,

one transformed into a treasure shaped like a compass, which was Zhou Xun’s ”Small Divination Compass”.

He was about to use the ability of this treasure to perform the Tracking Technique to find the location of the Profound Jade Lotus.

The other transformed into a Jade Box!

With a wave of his finger, the Jade Box opened automatically, revealing a thumb-sized, white jade-like Lotus Seed, which was the Master Profound Cloud.

Zhou Xun made gestures with both hands, operating the Divination Technique’s spell, mana flowing from his fingertips, and then gently pointed towards the ”Small Divination Compass”,

sending a ray of Spirit Light onto it,

after a moment, a pointer appeared on the Divination Compass, pointing northwest.

Seeing this, Zhou Xun smiled slightly and breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhou Xun was originally uncertain if he would get a result when using the Divination Compass,

after all, the Profound Jade Lotus, as a Tier Four High-Grade Spirit Medicine, could very likely have been eaten by other Demon Beasts.

But now that it was successfully calculated, it meant the Profound Jade Lotus was still there!

This is a Tier Four High-Grade level, higher than the Tier Four Middle-Grade he originally expected, and based on his previous experience cultivating Spirit Plants,

there’s a high probability it could reach Tier Five Low-Grade Level,

The Spirit Plant Essence of this level, even for Zhou Xun with a Celestial Spirit Root, can increase the Spirit Root Sensitivity by at least two points.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xun couldn’t help but feel a burst of joy, immediately summoning the Divination Compass and Master Profound Cloud into his Storage Bag,

and then hurriedly followed the direction indicated by the compass.

...

On the way, Zhou Xun concealed his presence to avoid alerting other Cultivators or Demon Beasts,

not because he feared he couldn’t defeat them,

but because his main goal for entering the Secret Realm had already appeared, so he naturally had to go all out,

previous activities had to be set aside for now,

otherwise, seeing a Spirit Medicine or discovering a Spirit Beast and gathering it in this resource-rich Secret Realm,

he wouldn’t know when he’d arrive at his destination, and if that Profound Jade Lotus was snatched by someone else, he would regret it deeply.

So he simply hid his form and aura to prevent being discovered, to avoid wasting time,

along the way, Zhou Xun encountered four or five Tier Three Demon Beasts, and even a group of human Cultivators being pursued by a large group of Demon Beasts.

Judging by their attire, they seemed to be from the Celestial Dao Alliance.

In response, Zhou Xun simply bypassed them from afar, without any intention of assisting.

In this way, it would take at most two days to reach the location of the Profound Jade Lotus.

Thus, Zhou Xun ignored everything else along the way, heading straight for the Profound Jade Lotus,

until, when he was one day away from his destination, he suddenly saw a familiar figure a few dozen miles away!

...

At the same time, a thousand miles away in the direction Zhou Xun was heading,

two Cultivators were in a heated dispute.

One was an ethereal, ice-like dust, resembling a Fairy descending to the world, a Female Cultivator,

the other was a youth in brocade robes with sword-like brows and bright eyes.

”Li Buxiu, according to the agreement between us, this Spirit Medicine should belong to me. Do you intend to go back on your word?”

The Female Cultivator frowned slightly, holding a transparent cone-shaped Magical Treasure, ready to activate it at any moment.

”Fairy Jiang, although we have had an agreement allowing you to take the first plant, this is an Earth Spirit Flower of Tier Four Low-Grade. Even a Nascent Soul Cultivator would covet it,”

”If I gave it all to you, wouldn’t I suffer a big loss!”

The young man shook his head, clearly intending to renege.

”How can you be so shameless? Previously, that Tier Three Middle-Grade Demon Pill, if it weren’t for you begging relentlessly, claiming it was crucial for your cultivation, and promising that the next Spirit Medicine would compensate me,”

”I would never have agreed to let you have such a rare Inner Core!”

”Now, seeing this Spirit Medicine is precious, you want to renege again. How can there be such logic in the world? Do you think my Profound Ice Cone is insignificant?”

The more the Female Cultivator spoke, the colder her eyes became, ready to deploy her Magical Treasure at any moment!

”Fairy Jiang, don’t be hasty. If it were ordinary treasure, it would be fine, but this is a Tier Four Spirit Medicine and cannot be treated the same way,”

”Either this Tier Four Spirit Medicine is redistributed, and you still keep the right to acquire the next one,”

”Or return my Inner Core and redistribute it with this Tier Four Spirit Medicine!”

”Otherwise, Daoist Jiang, please go ahead, for I also wish to see your skills!”

The youth knew he was wrong, but faced with a treasure like the Earth Spirit Flower, he simply couldn’t let go.

”Next plant?”

”If another rare Spirit Medicine is found, you might break your promise again and redistribute it!” The Female Cultivator said mockingly.

”As long as Fairy Jiang agrees to this condition, the next Spirit Medicine, regardless of its level, will be yours. I am willing to take a Heart Demon oath, how about that?”

Hearing this, the Female Cultivator’s expression changed several times,

The person in front of her was a Peak of Early-Stage Core Formation Cultivator, much higher than her Cultivation, really fighting would be unfavorable for her!

Just then, a powerful wave of mana came from afar,

immediately drawing the attention of both of them!

”Fairy, someone is coming. Shall we join forces to deal with this person first and then divide the spoils?” The young man, sensing the newcomer’s aura, changed his expression and quickly suggested.

The Female Cultivator, recognizing the newcomer, felt relieved and declined without hesitation!

”Hmph, how dare I team up with someone as faithless as you again!”

The young man was taken aback, exclaiming, his tone almost desperate!

”Fairy Jiang, we have worked together for some time. If we don’t get rid of this person, neither of us will get the Spirit Medicine!”

At this moment, the figure had already arrived and descended from the sky!

”What’s going on, fellow Daoists!”

Descending in front of the two, without concealing the mana of a Middle-Stage Core Formation Cultivator,

At the same time, the Profound Thunder Sword beneath his feet emitted arcs of Thunder, clearly showing Zhou Xun to be a powerful Thunder Cultivator.

This entrance immediately shocked the two, causing the young man who was prepared to act to instantly retreat.

This person was none other than Zhou Xun, on his way to find the Profound Jade Lotus,

Seeing the dispute between these two, Zhou Xun had no intention of intervening, but upon seeing one of them, a familiar face - Jiang Wanning!

Remembering the brief moment they had shared, Zhou Xun didn’t mind lending a small hand in this situation!

So he changed into the guise of Lii Feiyu,

”My lord!” Jiang Wanning exclaimed with joy, immediately stepping forward to greet him!

The young man paused, his face changing dramatically, looking at Jiang Wanning with disbelief!

”You... you know each other!”

”Miss Jiang, what happened?” Zhou Xun ignored the young man and turned to Jiang Wanning!

Jiang Wanning promptly explained how she teamed up with this young man, their agreement, how they found the Earth Spirit Flower, and how the dispute arose!
