Chapter 745: Nine-layer Golden Core

After returning to the mountain gate, Zhang Zhixuan sent Kang Duhe, the head of the Zhikeyuan, to go to Feixing Sect and Wuxiang Sect and give each of them a fifth-level demon pill as a gift.

In addition to Huangji Sect, Ji Sanyin, Ren Tianqiong and others helped a lot in getting the Jiuxiao Gangyu this time. If it weren't for the three Yuanyings of the two sects holding back the reinforcements of Shuangxiu Mansion, it would be difficult for the five people of Ziyang Sect to kill the demon cultivator within three hours.

If Ziyang Sect got the Jiuxiao Gangyu, Ji Sanyin and others would definitely be jealous. If this matter is not handled well, they may lose three helpers.

Feixing and Wuxiang Sect are far less powerful than Ziyang Sect, and Ji Sanyin and others also know that they are not Ziyang Sect's opponents. Ziyang Sect will never give up the Jiuxiao Gangyu, and getting a fifth-level demon pill is also a big benefit. So they happily accepted the gift and promised to maintain the order of the Southern Wilderness with Ziyang Sect as the leader.

In order to show their sincerity, Ji Sanyin, Ren Tianqiong and other Yuanying cultivators also signed a blood oath, promising to live in peace with Ziyang Sect and not to attack each other or invade each other's territory.

Since the contract has been signed, as long as Zhang Zhixuan and Ji Sanyin's generation of cultivators are alive, the peace of the three sects can be guaranteed.

With a peaceful environment, the three sects have increased their investment in Danxia Mountain Market. Even the headquarters of Ziyang Tower has moved to this spiritual vein, and Xia Youqing and Tang Fenglan, two late Jindan cultivators, have come to Danxia Mountain to take charge.

There are already five Jindan cultivators stationed in this market.

After the exchange of territories, the original territory of Song was divided up by seven small countries, and part of it was occupied by Ziyang Sect. Located in the buffer zone of the three countries, Song has frequent material exchanges. Not long after the opening of Danxia Mountain Market, it attracted a large number of customers.

Even Ziyang Sect cultivators like to go to Danxia Mountain to buy spiritual objects.

Many high-level casual cultivators who have no foundation and are ready to go deep into the southern wilderness to hunt monsters have also come to Danxia Mountain to buy one or two fifth-level talismans.

In this market, not only can you buy fifth-level elixirs, talismans, formations, and materials, but sometimes some high-level skills will also flow out. The high-level talismans drawn by Qingchan have already made a name for themselves and are hard to come by.

The gross profit of the Danxia Mountain market alone is 140,000 spiritual stones a year. Excluding the loss of formations, market expenses, and staff salaries, the net profit is about 60,000 spiritual stones a year.

Since Qingchan formed her infant, Ziyang Sect has given her a salary of 50,000 spiritual stones every year. In addition to the income from refining talismans, even without external income, Qingchan's annual income is about 100,000 spiritual stones.

As the head of Ziyang Sect, Zhang Zhixuan's annual salary is also quite good. He is also a fifth-level top-grade alchemist who monopolizes almost all of Ziyang Sect's high-level elixirs, and his annual income is also more than 50,000 spiritual stones.

The couple already had 5.6 million good deeds in the sect, and they also carried about 300,000 spiritual stones.

It was difficult to exchange spiritual objects above the sixth level with spiritual stones. After they had cultivated to their level, they no longer needed to worry about spiritual stones.

After Kang Duhe left, Zhang Zhixuan entrusted Qingchan to take charge of the sect, and he and Liu Guyan returned to their respective caves.

One of them had just formed a fetus, and his realm was not stable, while the other had cultivated to the last stage of the eighth level of the golden elixir, and was only one step away from a breakthrough. Both needed to practice in seclusion.

It had been 30 years since Zhang Zhixuan broke through to the eighth level of the golden elixir. At this stage of the golden elixir period, it took the longest time to get stuck at this level.

He was a cultivator who created his own practice. It was reasonable that his cultivation speed was extremely fast. If it were not for the sacrifice of the Pure Yang Cauldron, Zhang Zhixuan would have reached the point of breakthrough more than ten years ago.

Unfortunately, providing vitality for the Pure Yang Cauldron had slowed down Zhang Zhixuan for more than ten years.

After 30 years of accumulation, Zhang Zhixuan's magic power was already extremely strong.

He slowly urged his magic power, and it was as if a war drum was beating in his dantian.

The magic power was like a huge wave, constantly washing the tendons, meridians and acupoints in his body.

His dantian had expanded to the limit, and he was only a little bit away from reaching the level of golden elixir perfection.

This was Zhang Zhixuan's many breakthroughs in the golden elixir bottleneck. After more than three hundred years of hard practice, he had extremely rich experience in breaking through the closed-door practice.

He spit out a mouthful of pure yang fire, and there was a trace of purple air on the pure yang fire.

After more than three hundred years of hard practice of Qi Condensation, Zhang Zhixuan has accumulated innate purple air for more than six decades. The innate purple air seemed endless, gradually blending into the middle dantian, wrapping the golden elixir in the body and dyeing it purple.

The golden elixir had been refined to the extreme, and a dull thunder suddenly exploded. The purple golden elixir slowly turned and broke through the bottleneck in an instant.

After only three months of closed-door practice, Zhang Zhixuan successfully broke through the realm and cultivated to the last step of the golden elixir stage.

After the successful breakthrough, Zhang Zhixuan stabilized his cultivation and immediately started to get busy again.

After returning from the Demon Cloud Cave, Zhang Zhixuan immediately issued an edict to the sect monks, mobilizing the power of all the monks of Ziyang Sect to find the news of the sixth-level spiritual object Pure Lotus.

With the Pure Lotus, Zhang Zhixuan can prepare to refine the Purple Heart Jade Lotus.

After refining this magic weapon, he has completed the final preparations before forming the infant. After accumulating thirty or forty years of effort, he can try to break through the bottleneck of the infant.

The Pure Lotus is a special sixth-level spiritual medicine that can be refined into the Demon Repellent Pill. This spiritual pill is specifically used to restrain the possession of the inner demon and is very helpful for the cultivator to survive the inner demon disaster. It is also a precious spiritual pill that assists in forming the infant.

This spiritual object is very rare. The monks of Ziyang Sect have been busy looking for it for ten years, but still found nothing.

For this reason, Zhang Zhixuan also wrote a letter in person and asked some friends such as Bai Mengyao and Yuwen Hong.

In the end, it was Yuwen Hong who consulted the sect's classics and gave Zhang Zhixuan a positive answer.

Huangji Sect has a long history and is one of the oldest among the ten major sects in the Great Zhou Dynasty. From the classics collected by his family, Zhang Zhixuan knew that even among the ten major sects in the Great Zhou Dynasty, there was no spiritual object such as the Pure Lotus in the spiritual medicine garden.

In the entire world of immortal cultivation, there is only one place where the Pure Lotus can be found, and this place is the Buddhist holy land Lotus Temple.

Lotus Temple is located in the west of Wan Yao Country, in Xiyaozhou.

In the ancient war tens of thousands of years ago, the tradition of Lotus Temple was cut off.

In the tens of thousands of years since then, Pure Lotus has rarely appeared in the world of immortal cultivation.

If you want to find this object, you can only go to the ruins of Lotus Temple in Xiyaozhou to look for opportunities.

Although Nanyazhou and Xiyaozhou are only separated by the Nine Dragon Sea, unfortunately, there is Wan Yao Country in the middle. For tens of thousands of years, the two places have never communicated with each other.

If you want to sneak through Wan Yao Country, it is difficult even for a Yuanying cultivator.

However, in Qingli Sea, there is an intercontinental teleportation array connected to Xiyaozhou.

If the monks of Nanyazhou want to go to Xiyaozhou, they often have to take a detour through Qingli Sea.

It was ten years later when he heard the news.

With powerful enemies such as Yanghuo Palace and Wuji Sect, Zhang Zhixuan did not dare to enter Dazhou easily, and could only entrust someone to send a letter to Huangji Sect. As a ninth-level Yuanying cultivator, Yuwen Hong might need several years of seclusion for an ordinary retreat, so it was not convenient for the two sides to communicate.

It might take a long time to just deliver a message.
