Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal Chapter 372 - 120: Reunion with Old Friends!
"Greetings, fellow Daoists. I am Feng Yue,"
The young man approached, cupping his hands in courtesy as he spoke first.
Zhou Xun swept his Divine Sense over the man, noting that he had Middle-Stage Core Formation Cultivation.
"Ah, Daoist Feng, may I ask what guidance you have for ?" Zhou Xun returned the gesture of respect.
"Oh, it’s nothing much. I just noticed the flying spirit beast you were riding seems to be a Crimson Fla Simurgh?"
The young man smiled, speaking with a hint of deeper aning.
"Daoist Feng, you have a keen eye. My flying spirit beast is indeed a Crimson Fla Simurgh, though its grade is sowhat lower." Zhou Xun replied calmly.
Upon hearing this, the young man’s eyes lit up, exuding a gleam of delight, and he hastily said:
"This is wonderful. I have an immodest request."
"I’ve been searching for this Crimson Fla Simurgh for decades. Now that I’ve finally seen it, I wonder if you could part with it. I’m willing to pay a high price."
Zhou Xun frowned upon hearing this.
This Crimson Fla Simurgh was his flying spirit beast, possessing a high-grade bloodline, and had been nurtured for decades, forming a strong bond with him and Song Yiqing.
Additionally, Zhou Xun had previously slain nurous cultivators of the sa level, reaping great rewards, and had millions of spirit stones on him, lacking nothing in terms of wealth.
Naturally, he had no intention of selling his flying spirit beast for spirit stones.
Upon hearing this, Song Yixin’s heart tightened. This Crimson Fla Simurgh had been raised for a long ti, with significant emotional attachnt.
Thus, he was naturally reluctant to sell it.
So, she tugged on Zhou Xun’s sleeve.
Zhou Xun noticed this, gently patted Song Yiqing’s hands, signaling her to be at ease.
Then he turned to Feng Yue and decisively refused, saying:
"Daoist, I admire your spirit!"
"However, this Crimson Fla Simurgh has been with for a long ti, and our bond is deep. I truly have no intention of selling it. I hope you can understand."
Seeing this, the young man grew anxious and continued:
"Daoist, don’t be so quick to refuse, why not listen to my offer first,"
"I’m willing to offer 300,000 spirit stones and, in addition, compensate you with the egg of a high-grade bloodline flying demon beast. What do you think?"
300,000 spirit stones are enough to purchase so low-grade magical treasures.
Plus, the added compensation of the flying demon beast egg showed genuine sincerity.
However, Zhou Xun truly lacked nothing in terms of spirit stones and still shook his head:
"Your offer is indeed generous, but I really have no intention of selling, and I must decline your kindness!"
"500,000, I can increase to 500,000 spirit stones!"
The young man thought Zhou Xun was holding out for a higher price, so he continued to increase the offer.
"Daoist, I have made myself clear, this Crimson Fla Simurgh is not for sale!"
Seeing the young man persistently pestering him, Zhou Xun couldn’t help but feel sowhat displeased, and even his tone grew colder.
The young man seed to sense Zhou Xun’s impatience and grew a bit anxious.
"Why not na your price, as long as it’s within Feng’s capability to et, I will spare no effort!"
Hearing this, Zhou Xun no longer spoke, took Song Yiqing’s hand, and turned away.
The young man unyieldingly pursued, shouting from behind: "Daoist!"
"Daoist, please wait!"
Zhou Xun and the others acted as if they hadn’t heard, heading straight for the city gate.
Seeing this, the young man ceased his pursuit, standing his ground, watching Zhou Xun and others’ departing figures intently.
A fierce glint flashed in his eyes.
He deftly patted a certain place on his waist and asked softly, "Did you manage to rember the aura of those people?"
"Rest assured, Master, I have morized the aura of those people completely. Even if separated by thousands of miles, I could track them down!"
As it turned out, the young man had never intended to trade for spirit stones when calling out to Zhou Xun and the others.
Instead, he had secretly arranged for his exotic beast to collect the aura of Zhou Xun and his companions.
And thereafter execute a plan of robbery cultivation.
"Very well, in ti, Feng shall let you Eastern Wilderness Barbarians see what a true Core Formation Cultivator is!"
...
The city walls of Tianhan City soared a hundred zhang high, constructed entirely from specially refined black stone.
Engraved with various restrictions, even a Tier Three Great Demon would find it difficult to forcibly breach them.
This was the foundation of Tianhan City.
Zhou Xun and his companions appeared insignificant as they walked beneath them.
The city gate was over ten zhang tall, flanked by two squads of ten guards each, with Peak Qi Refining Cultivation.
Clad in blue-black standard spirit armor, wielding magic weapon long halberds, Zhou Xun imdiately noted their high-grade level.
"Tianhan City is truly wealthy, with even common guards sporting high-grade level spirit armor,"
Such standard spirit armor could often communicate with each other, forming arrays in battle.
Despite being Qi Refining Stage cultivators, if faced against them, even a Middle-Stage Foundation Establishnt cultivator might be hard-pressed against one of their teams.
Moreover, the captain, dressed as the leader, was also a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator.
Along with the gate’s restrictions, unless a Core Formation Cultivator steps in, it would be impossible to overco them in a short ti.
Zhou Xun and his two companions approached the city gate to register.
The registrar was a middle-aged man, fair-faced and beardless.
Upon seeing Zhou Xun and his companions, his expression imdiately beca respectful.
"Greetings, Senior. Is this your first ti visiting Tianhan City!"
"Yes!"
Zhou Xun nodded.
The middle-aged man didn’t say much, reaching to his waist to produce three blue-black tokens.
"These are the passage tokens for Tianhan City. Please refine them, Senior!"
Zhou Xun and his companions took the tokens upon hearing this.
"What is the cost for passage?"
Zhou Xun pointed to the young man who had just passed by.
"Ah, Senior is a Core Formation Cultivator, so the entry is naturally free!"
The middle-aged man replied respectfully.
Hearing this, Zhou Xun nodded and then entered Tianhan City with Master Profound Cloud and Song Yiqing.
...
Beyond the gate was a street over ten zhang wide, paved entirely with bluestone,
This was the main road of Tianhan City, with a trendous flow of people, extending upwards along Tianhan Mountain.
The flow of cultivators was endless.
Elderly people, children, young n, burly n...
So dressed as Confucian scholars, so wore Dao robes, so carried swords on their backs, so rode spirit beasts, all sorts!
"As expected of one of the Three Great Immortal Cities of the Eastern Wilderness, it truly is extraordinary!"
The White Cloud Immortal City and Fengyuan City that Zhou Xun had seen paled in comparison, resembling re villages.
Along the main road were various types of buildings, lined up in rows, their eaves interlinking, imposing and grandiose.
"Celestial Star Pavilion"
"Spirit Treasure Pavilion"
"Xianyun Residence"
"Drunken Immortal Tower"
...
One after another, extrely prosperous.
"Husband, this Tianhan City is indeed majestic. If only our Wangchuan Immortal City were as prosperous!"
Song Yiqing was wide-eyed in admiration!
The pedestrians bustling about were mostly Late-Stage Qi Refining or higher, with Foundation Establishnt cultivators being frequently encountered.
Even the rarely seen Core Formation Great Powers were nurous enough that Zhou Xun saw several!
"It seems, this ti I’ll be able to purchase sothing good!"
Zhou Xun had co, well-prepared with spirit stones!
Without delay, Zhou Xun and his companions first sought out an inn to stay.
Unexpectedly, the grand event in Tianhan City was so popular that all major inns within the city were fully occupied!
As the three smiled wryly, a distinctly familiar voice suddenly echoed from behind.
"Junior Brother Zhou!"
