I use my future dreams to prove immortality.

Chapter 85 Spirit Stones

"My senior sister is a celestial master of the Blackwater Sect. She gave me a spot as a Dao soldier, so I can now enter the inner city celestial sect to cultivate."

When Zhou Qiuyuan returned home, he couldn't wait to tell his parents the good news.

The two looked on in disbelief, unable to recover for a long time.

Zhou Chengwu and Shen Wan's faces lit up with ecstasy, exclaiming, "This is incredible news!"

The two didn't know what Dao soldiers were, but anything related to the Immortal Master was unusual.

Even a tiny bit of something leaking from between the fingers of a sage can bring immense benefits.

As the saying goes, "being near the water tower gives you an advantage," and Zhou Qiuyuan's son will truly have the opportunity to embark on the path of cultivation in the future.

Zhou Qiuyuan looked at the Fire Feathered Chickens in the West Wing Chicken Coop, and for a moment, he didn't know what to do with them.

After entering the inner city immortal sect, he had no time to take care of the Fire Feather Chicken. If the matter of the Fire Feather Chicken were to be exposed, it would bring disaster upon his parents.

The Fire Feather Chicken isn't very useful for cultivating immortality, so there's no need to hide it. Perhaps it can be properly disposed of by my senior sister, or sold for a good price.

After informing his parents, Zhou Chengwu and Shen Wan were reluctant, but they understood that their son's worries were not unfounded, so they could only reluctantly agree.

Zhou Qiuyuan put the fire-feathered chicken into a cage and covered it with a black cloth. After carefully confirming that there were no hidden dangers, he strode towards the Wei residence.

The people from the Wei family carried very little luggage and had to hurry to the inner city. If he arrived even a moment later, he would be disappointed.

Wei Jin was somewhat surprised to see his young apprentice return: "Why are you back so quickly? Have you taken care of everything at home?"

"Master, I have something I don't know how to deal with. Please give me some guidance." Zhou Qiuyuan lifted the black cloth, revealing a fire-feathered chicken with bright red feathers inside the cage.

When the Fire-feathered Chicken saw a stranger, it looked around curiously.

Wei Jin exclaimed in surprise, "Huh, a mutant chicken?"

"Where did you get it?"

The crowd, impressed by his exceptional knowledge, wore expressions of astonishment.

Most mutated beasts are violent, making these docile and bred mutated chickens extremely valuable.

Wei Xia stepped forward and patted the Fire Feather Chicken's head, laughing, "A fire-type mutation; eating it is a great tonic for fire-type body cultivators."

Zhou Qiuyuan nodded and said, "Senior Sister is indeed insightful."

"The turkey is unique."

Lu Chengping glanced at it, then looked away indifferently.

After the Lu family was destroyed, the mutated creatures that could be raised were of little value to him.

Wei Xia asked, "Junior brother, what are your plans? To find someone to raise it? Or are you planning to sell it for a good price?"

Gu Hongzhuang, who had been following Wei Xia closely, looked at the Fire Feather Chicken with burning eyes. She took the initiative to step forward and bow, saying, "Immortal Master, I have a favor to ask."

"Could we give this turkey to the Gu family?"

Wei Xia glanced at Zhou Qiuyuan and replied, "You two talk it out yourselves."

Zhou Qiuyuan was surprised to find a buyer so quickly and asked with a smile, "What price are you planning to offer?"

Both of them are Dao soldiers under Wei Xia, and they will inevitably spend time together in the future. As long as the price is right, the person next to him will naturally be given priority.

He could barely accept selling a few hundred taels of gold, or receiving a commission of 30% or more.

Gu Hongzhuang hesitated for a moment before saying, "How about a low-grade spirit stone?"

"This is, after all, just a mundane item; it can only assist in body refinement, not in the cultivation of immortality."

"The Gu family has a special bloodline, with many members being fire spirits. This item is of great benefit to the family's body cultivators, which is why they are willing to spend spirit stones to purchase it."

Ah!

Zhou Qiuyuan was stunned for a moment, his face filled with ecstatic joy.

He originally wanted to earn some money to improve his parents' lives so that they could enjoy a comfortable life in the outer city.

Unexpectedly, Gu Hongzhuang was incredibly generous, actually willing to exchange spirit stones for it.

When Black Swamp City was first established, it conducted a gold-to-spirit-stone exchange. The price skyrocketed from one hundred taels of gold to one spirit stone to over one thousand taels of gold to one spirit stone.

The attempt to exchange spirit stones for gold failed because spirit stones were valuable but unavailable, and cultivators would not exchange them for gold.

Even spending thousands of taels of gold wouldn't buy a single spirit stone.

Zhou Qiuyuan handed over the chicken coop containing the Fire Feather Chicken, saying, "This is for Miss Gu."

Gu Hongzhuang took out a purse from her bosom, solemnly took out the only piece of white jade she possessed, and handed it over.

This object was about the size of a thumb, and Zhou Qiuyuan could vaguely sense the immense spiritual energy hidden within it.

"Is this the spirit stone?"

Zhou Qiuyuan had seen the spirit stone from afar in the Chu family's secret collection, but this was the first time he had come into close contact with it.

Seeing his young apprentice's excited expression, Wei Jin quickly reminded him, "Don't flaunt the spirit stones in the marketplace, or you'll get into trouble."

"Thank you for the reminder, Master."

Zhou Qiuyuan had not forgotten what happened at Huixianzhai. Once the spirit stones were exposed, body refiners and immortal cultivators in the Vajra Realm would all be targeting him.

He carefully put the spirit stone into his pocket before bowing and saying goodbye.

Gu Hongzhuang's generosity was too much for Zhou Qiuyuan to bear. Once home, he could cook and eat the still-incubating Fire Feather eggs to avoid any resentment should the news leak out.

Zhou Qiuyuan bid farewell to his master and senior sister and strode towards Chen's Grocery Store.

When he goes to the inner city immortal sect in the future, he will probably have difficulty coming and going, and his parents will need someone to take good care of them.

No outsider can compare to family; my sister and brother-in-law are the most suitable candidates.

As soon as Zhou Qiuyuan arrived at the general store, he saw two burly men with knives leave with satisfaction.

"Sister, what happened?"

When Zhou Hui saw her younger brother arrive, she explained, "It's a common practice in the city for the Black Shark Gang to come and collect protection money."

Zhou Qiuyuan suppressed the idea of ​​dragging the two men back.

"Sister, I will be joining the Blackwater Sect in the inner city from now on, so I will have to trouble you to take good care of the two elders."

Before, Zhou Hui would have thought her younger brother had hysteria. But after witnessing Zhou Qiuyuan's journey from nothing to becoming a body cultivator and providing a better life for their parents, she realized that her brother was different.

"Are you going to become a cultivator? I remember you didn't have any spiritual roots, did you?"

Although there are methods for cultivating acquired spiritual roots in the cultivation world, acquired spiritual roots are not something that ordinary people can only dream of.

"Just by serving as a Dao soldier for my senior sister, it will be easier to obtain immortal opportunities once I enter the Immortal Sect."

Zhou Hui was unaware of the rarity of the Dao Soldier quota, but the opportunity to come into contact with a Celestial Master was something countless people dreamed of.

"Sister, don't forget to come home for dinner today."

Zhou Qiuyuan bid farewell to his sister and had only taken a few steps when he caught sight of Cao San, who was wearing a cotton-padded coat.

"Long time no see!" Cao San's smile held a hint of smugness, as if he had been eagerly anticipating this moment. "I've become a Body Refiner!"

"Congratulations!" Zhou Qiuyuan smiled and cupped his hands in greeting.

He knew about this earlier than Cao San, after all, Cao San's spiritual awakening results and cultivation resources all came from Zhou Qiuyuan.

Of course, this was not a free gift; Cao San tracked down Chu Ziyan's residence through a future dream and provided crucial intelligence.

This allowed him to obtain a precious secret treasure of the Chu family, from which he reaped considerable rewards.

Zhou Qiuyuan never shortchanged those who had made contributions. Not only did he give the result of the spiritual awakening, he also rewarded them with an additional 50,000 coins.

Thinking of the mysterious Dark Night faction he had just joined, where money and opportunities were plentiful and the future looked promising, Cao Sanyao said with great enthusiasm, "Don't slack off. I will definitely catch up with you and Qi Lingchuan. We'll meet again on the path to immortality."
