Immortal Cultivation: Starting from Improving Spiritual Root Qualification

Shiba Village is a small village on the edge of the Li River. There are more than 800 people in the village, half of whom make a living by fishing.

Sun Ergou is an orphan in the village. He is eleven years old this year. Not long after his birth, his parents were caught in a heavy rainstorm while fishing in the Lijiang River, and their boat was destroyed.

Fortunately, he also has a grandfather who is over sixty years old. They depend on each other, which allows him to live until now.

On this day, Sun Ergou was getting into a cage by the river.

Suddenly, a white shadow appeared in the river upstream.

Big fish!

This was the first thought in Sun Ergou's mind.

He immediately took off his shirt, picked up a harpoon, and plunged into the water.

They rely on mountains to eat mountains, and rely on water to drink water. The people on the Li River are all good at water. In addition, everyone in the village practices martial arts, so they can come and go freely in the water.

Sun Ergou is one of the best.

With just one harpoon, you can always gain something on this Li River!

As soon as Sun Ergou entered the water, he dived into the river, swinging his waist and abdomen like a flexible fish.

He soon swam to the side of the white shadow.

Only then did he become dumbfounded:

This isn't a big fish, it's clearly a person!

I don't know what evil you have done, but you were taken away by the River God!

Oh, I'll just dig you into the ground and put you to rest! When Sun Ergou saw this man, he really thought of his parents.

This person's relatives also hope that someone can bury him, just like I also hope that someone can see the bodies of my parents and bury them properly.

So he held the man's ankle with one hand and paddled the water with the other.

In a short time, they reached the riverside and struggled to pull the man ashore.

I looked towards this person inadvertently and saw that his chest was still rising and falling!

This man is not dead!

Sun Ergou took him back to his home without hesitation.

cough!

Zhou Xun struggled to open his eyes.

What you see is a somewhat shabby but extremely clean house.

Hanging on the mottled wall are fishing nets, ground cages and a harpoon.

Where am I?

He remembered cutting a huge piece of wood and hollowing it out, then lying in it and swimming down the river. He had no memory after that.

Wake up here.

Using his magic power, bursts of tingling pain came from his meridians.

Looking inside, there were faint cracks in the meridians.

Most of the magic power in Dantian is also silent.

What can be used now is equivalent to the first level of Qi training.

This time when I ran for my life, my foundation was severely damaged.

Fortunately, I escaped!

This can be said to be the most dangerous time in Zhou Xun's training career.

The true elixir cultivator was chasing her. If he hadn't had divination skills and he would never have been able to discover the mark of divine consciousness, then he would have been caught up by her, and his fate would be self-evident.

If you can't solve the problem, just solve the person who caused the problem!

The Zhendan monk is really domineering!

Shaking his head, he took out a healing pill from the storage bag and took it.

At this moment, a clear young voice sounded.

you're awake!

Zhou Xun looked at the plain-looking, dark-skinned young fisherman in front of him.

You are the one who saved me!

It doesn't matter whether we can save him or not, we fishermen will help others when we see them in trouble! The young man didn't care.

Thank you! Zhou Xun said.

You just woke up and are feeling weak. Here is a bowl of fish soup. Drink it and you will recover quickly! The young man brought a bowl of fish soup with several pieces of fish meat lying in it.

Zhou Xun had never eaten this mortal food since he traveled through time, so he was a little hesitant.

Looking at the young man's innocent eyes, Zhou Xun took it and ate it all.

It tastes very good! Zhou Xun commented.

Seeing Zhou Xun finish drinking the fish soup, the young man also smiled happily.

Early the next morning, Zhou Xun walked out of the room.

After taking the healing pill, Zhou Xun felt that his body was slowly recovering.

He decided to stay in this village until his health recovered.

Then absorb the essence of the elixir to restore the foundation.

It had only been four months since he last absorbed the essence, so he would have to wait eight months to recover.

In the evening, the young man came back, and with him was a rickety old man with white hair and a haggard face. He had to use a cane to walk.

Zhou Xun glanced at it and knew that this man was seriously ill and would die soon.

Brother, how are you? Are you feeling better?

Much better! Zhou Xun replied.

After dinner, the young man found Zhou Xun but stopped talking.

What seems to be the matter with you? Zhou Xun took the initiative.

Brother, are you literate?

Zhou Xun nodded.

Can you teach me then? the young man asked anxiously.

Can!

That's great, thank you, brother! the young man said happily.

Then he talked about the benefits of literacy.

After you become literate, you can work as an apprentice in the town, so that you can earn money and treat your grandfather's illness.

In fact, the old man's illness is a big deal to a mortal, but to Zhou Xun, it is just a trivial matter.

But he doesn't plan to take action now.

Wait until he leaves and then heal the old man.

Moreover, he will also give the boy a gift.

Next, every day is about healing and teaching teenagers how to read.

In this way, two months have passed. Zhou Xian's cultivation and body have recovered a lot. Now the magic power he can use has reached the fourth level of Qi training.

On this day, the village chief suddenly notified the whole village to gather.

Said something big was announced.

On the high platform, a somewhat wealthy middle-aged man was announcing loudly.

“Next month is our town’s triennial River God Festival!”

As you all know, the River God Festival requires a boy and girl. This time, it is our Shiba Village's turn!

Hearing this, there was a commotion below!

Quiet! the village chief shouted.

This is Master Kunai. He will select the boys and girls for this sacrifice! He said and respectfully invited out a middle-aged man dressed in yellow robes and dressed as a Taoist priest.

Immortal cultivators, practice the third level of Qi!

One look at this person and Zhou Xun knew his true identity.

The middle-aged Taoist priest came on stage,

Today, I will be responsible for selecting the men and women for sacrifice!

After saying a simple word, he immediately took out a talisman with a small ruler drawn on it. The man pretended to work for a while, and then shot out a magic formula.

A green ruler flew out and hovered over the heads of the villagers.

Seeing this scene, everyone bowed down and called him Immortal Master!

At this moment, the ruler fell down and rested on the head of an eleven or twelve year old girl.

The girl chose her! The middle-aged Taoist priest said calmly with an expressionless face.

The mother next to the girl was shocked when she heard this. She immediately knelt down and cried bitterly.

Master Immortal, I only have one daughter, please spare her!

Sacrificing the River God is related to the livelihood of the entire Miandu Town in the next three years. How can we just change it! the middle-aged Taoist priest said coldly.

Upon hearing this, the villagers immediately spoke up.

Yes, this is related to our livelihood in the next three years. Second Aunt, you can't be stupid!

Yes, what should we do when the river god is angry!

Some people even forcibly picked up the girl.

No, give me back my daughter! The woman was heartbroken and yelling at the heavens and the earth.
