Zhou Daoyi successfully broke through to the late stage of foundation building. There is no need to hide this news.

Soon all the monks in the Zhou family learned the good news.

All Zhou family members are also happy for this from the bottom of their hearts.

But to say who is the happiest person, it must be Zhou Chun and Zhou Daoquan.

For Zhou Chun, Zhou Daoyi's breakthrough to the late stage of foundation building meant that he could safely switch to "Jin Ding Xuan Gong".

As for Zhou Daoquan, after Zhou Daoyi's breakthrough, he could safely leave his family and travel far away, looking for opportunities to open up the Zifu.

Therefore, not long after Zhou Daoyi came out of seclusion, Zhou Chun asked him to take charge of the family affairs again, and he was ready to go out to find the materials for refining Jin Ling Tiao Qi Powder.

Medicinal pills like Jin Ling Tiao Qi Powder have very few uses, so it is unrealistic to buy and exchange them.

But without this item, the tripod-making level of "Jin Ding Xuan Gong" will become very difficult.

So Zhou Chun must get this thing.

Now through various channels, he has gathered the other auxiliary ingredients for refining this substance. He only needs two important main ingredients before he can ask someone to open a furnace to refine the medicine.

"The world of immortality is in crisis. Although your silver lightning python has been promoted to the second level, you still have to be careful when going out alone. Remember the lesson of exchanging pills last time!"

Before Zhou Chun went out, Zhou Daoyi also gave him some serious advice, asking him to be more careful.

Although foundation-building monks in the world of immortal cultivation have initially acquired the ability to travel far alone, they are not completely without danger.

Especially monks like Zhou Chun who go out alone to look for certain materials are even more likely to be targeted for this reason.

And being alone in a foreign land, even if someone plotted against him, the family would not be able to avenge him at all, and they would not even know who plotted against him.

Therefore, Zhou Daoyi could only tell him to be careful and not to expose his wealth or cards easily.

"The younger generation must remember the patriarch's instructions."

Zhou Chun nodded seriously and then left the family alone.

The place he was going to on this trip was Cangzhou, Jingguo, thousands of miles away, which was the territory of Yanyang Sect, the great sect of Jingguo.

The two main ingredients for making Jin Ling Tiao Qi Powder are more commonly found there.

After leaving Jiufeng Ridge, he directly took to the air and headed towards Cangzhou.

This was also Zhou Daoyi's advice to him. Don't easily reveal his possession of a second-level flying magic weapon on the road, and don't expose the existence of a second-level silver lightning python.

In this case, those powerful bandit cultivators with malicious intentions will not look down on him at all, and if the weak ones really attack him, he will kill them instead.

However, when flying with air control, not only is the speed average, but it also consumes a lot of mana.

Generally, in order to retain enough mana to deal with the enemy in the early stages of foundation building, monks should first find a place to restore their mana after flying thousands of miles away.

But this is not a problem at all for Zhou Chun.

He doesn't have to make any detours to find places where he can recover his mana along the way, he just needs to fly in a straight line along the way.

When the mana consumption is too high, just find a place in the forest and meditate to recover.

In this way, he would not enter the market or the monks' settlement, so he would avoid the trouble of being watched.

So it took him just over three days to arrive in Cangzhou.

Cangzhou is located in the central and western part of Jingguo, and its adjacent Yanzhou is where the Yanyang Sect's mountain gate is located.

This state has many mountainous areas and rich mineral deposits. The environment for cultivating immortals is better than that of Lanzhou, and it is also more prosperous overall.

However, the situation in this state is also relatively complicated. Although the Yanyang Sect is the nominal ruler, in fact because of the rich mineral resources in Cangzhou, the Yuelun Sect and Qinglian Temple have also intervened here and supported some forces.

.

In the past, reshuffles between small forces would occur here every few years. Except for a few families with deep roots, not many local cultivating families could survive here forever.

Especially when new mineral veins are discovered, wars often start over the competition for the mineral veins.

Zhou Chun also knew that the situation here was complicated before he came, so after arriving in Cangzhou, he did not use the name of the Zhou family.

But this time he did not use the identity of a casual cultivator. Instead, he assumed the identity of a descendant of a cultivator family in Yunzhou who relocated his family's monastery due to the invasion of the Hualong Cult.

After all, casual cultivators of his age, not only unique, but also extremely rare, would be too eye-catching with this status.

Although it is relatively rare to be a family monk, it seems much more normal.

Cangzhou and Yunzhou are thousands of miles apart. Unless you happen to meet someone who is familiar with the situation in Yunzhou, this will not be exposed easily.

After searching for people in Cangzhou, he easily entered Jinquanfang City, the largest city in Cangzhou.

Compared with Hongyafang City and Donglingfang City that Zhou Chun had visited before, Jinquanfang City is much larger, with more shops and a lot more monks.

Moreover, Zhou Chun also discovered that there are quite a lot of foundation-building monks coming and going here.

When he was in Hongyafang City, it was difficult to see a foundation-building monk even when walking around the streets.

But after he walked around Jinquanfang City, he saw three foundation-building monks passing by.

Obviously, being able to attract so many foundation-building monks here means that they can find what they need in the shops in Jinquanfang City.

This made Zhou Chun feel more hopeful.

After some investigation, he walked into a shop called "Mushi Zhai" in Fangshi.

This "Mushizhai" is a general store that sells elixirs, spiritual gold ores and other items, but the price is slightly higher than the market price.

After Zhou Chun entered, he saw the shopkeeper conducting a transaction with a customer.

Seeing him come in at this time, although the shopkeeper was only in the Qi Refining stage, he did not immediately neglect the previous customer because he was a Foundation Establishment monk.

Instead, he bowed his hands apologetically and said, "Senior, please wait a moment. After this junior completes the transaction with this Taoist friend, I will entertain the senior."

Perhaps it was precisely because of this attitude that the customer who had cultivated in the Qi Refining Period was greatly satisfied.

He quickly paid the spirit coins and left the store with the purchased items.

At this time, the grey-haired shopkeeper stepped forward with an apologetic expression and saluted Zhou Chun and apologized: "Senior, I have troubled you by waiting for so long. I would like to apologize to you."

"It doesn't matter. Everything is first come, first served. The shopkeeper didn't do anything wrong."

Zhou Chun waved his hand, indicating that it was okay.

Then he looked at the shopkeeper and asked: "I wonder if your store sells golden leaf bamboo roots and top-grade golden rat galls that are over 500 years old?"

Hearing his words, the shopkeeper immediately shook his head and said: "Senior, the two kinds of spiritual things you mentioned are available in the store, but the age and quality of the medicines do not meet your requirements."

Zhou Chun had already expected this answer.

After all, golden leaf bamboo roots that are more than 500 years old can not only be used to refine Jin Ling Qi Tiao Powder, but can also be used to refine some more advanced elixirs, which cannot be bought in ordinary stores.

The high-grade gold-eating rat gallbladder needs to be harvested alive from the body of a first-grade high-grade monster beast, the gold-eating rat.

Generally speaking, this kind of first-grade high-grade gold-eating rat is the rat king of a rat group. It is extremely difficult to capture it alive to extract its courage!

So he didn't show any disappointment at this time, but continued to look at the shopkeeper and said: "Jiang heard that your store has a business offering rewards for found objects. If Jiang is willing to buy these two items at a price higher than half the market price,

, what do you think, the shopkeeper?"

Offering rewards for finding objects is a special business of some shops in the city.

Generally, only stores with a wide range of channels will open this kind of business.

They will ask the customer to add a certain amount of reward based on the value of the spiritual object they are looking for, and then use their strong network of contacts to collect relevant spiritual objects for the customer.

Zhou Chun also came here to inquire after finding out that "Mu Shi Zhai" had such a business.

When the shopkeeper heard what he said, he quickly replied: "Our store does engage in the business of offering rewards for finding objects, but if the seniors want to do this business, it is not the juniors who can make the decision."

"Then please ask the shopkeeper to invite someone who can make the decision."

Zhou Chun waved his hand and asked him to invite someone.

When the shopkeeper heard this, he cupped his hands and said, "Senior, please come back in the evening. The manager of our store should be able to come to the store by then."

"Okay, then Jiang will come back in the evening."

Zhou Chun stared at the shopkeeper for a while, then finally nodded, turned and left the store.

After he left, the shopkeeper quickly closed the door and went to the backyard of the store.

Soon after, he returned to the front hall, reopened the door and started business.

In the evening, Zhou Chun arrived at the "Mushizhai" store as scheduled.

Seeing his arrival, the shopkeeper also hurriedly stepped forward to greet him and said: "Junior has met senior. The manager of our store is already waiting in the backyard. Junior will take you over to meet him."

After saying that, he took Zhou Chun outside a living room in the backyard, and then returned to the front hall.

Zhou Chun walked into the hall with the door open and saw a middle-aged woman with mid-level foundation-building cultivation sitting inside making tea.

When he saw him entering the room, he stood up and greeted him: "You are so polite, fellow Daoist Jiang. My surname is Luo and my name is Qingyi. I am currently the steward of Mushi Zhai."

"You are so polite, Fellow Daoist Luo. My surname is Jiang Zishan and I come from Yunzhou."

Zhou Chun bowed his hand and gave a salute, and also reported the origin of his pseudonym.

Hearing what he said, the woman named Luo Qingyi just smiled, not knowing whether she believed it or not.
