Chapter 274 Cave Mansion
"Hahaha~ Come on, Xu Qing, I'll introduce him to you!"

In Baiyujing, Zheng Yi took Xu Mujun's hand and introduced them one by one:
"This is Taoist Priest Tian Xingzi, a cultivator in the late stage of Qi training. He is the descendant of the Tianji Sect, a major cultivation sect from a thousand years ago. He is best at astronomical divination and astrological formations."

"The mountain protection formation of our dynasty was created by Taoist Tian Xingzi."

Xu Mujun nodded and said, "Greetings to Taoist Tianxingzi."

Tian Xingzi responded repeatedly, "General Xu, you are too polite. I have often heard your majesty and other ministers mention you. Seeing you today is really an eye-opener!"

It's more than an eye-opener, it's simply mind-blowing!

How can a mere mortal, even if he is a warrior above the innate level, be so powerful!

It took less than a cup of tea to defeat a cultivator who had just started the foundation-building stage!

If this matter were to get out, I wonder how many people would be shocked.

Tuoba Qingying is a cultivator with water-attributed spiritual roots.

Even the Jindan puppet couldn't take it down in a short period of time, but I didn't expect Xu Mujun could do it!

and……

In his mind, he kept recalling the knife strike by Xu Mujun just now, which clearly had the meaning of "spiritual thoughts taking shape".

You know, the art of transforming one's mind into a form is rumored to be a magical power that only cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage can master.

At the very least, they must be some Jindan stage cultivators who have practiced spiritual thoughts intensively!
I didn't expect that Xu Mujun, a mere mortal, could master this technique.

It’s really... too scary!

"There is also this person, Xuanjizi, the descendant of Xuanji Sect. He has reached the late stage of Qi training and has superb swordsmanship. He is also the teacher who teaches the new disciples of our dynasty."

Xuanjizi looked at Xu Mujun carefully with her beautiful eyes, and was somewhat shocked.

She had also seen what Xu Mujun had done just now, so she calmed down and said, "I am Xuanjizi, nice to meet General Xu."

"Master Xuanjizi, you are too polite."

Xu Mujun nodded in response, and then asked, "Your Majesty, what does it mean for our dynasty's new disciples to be accepted?"

Zheng Yi said calmly: "This is a simple matter. I held a 'Spirit Testing Ceremony' half a year ago to search for people with spiritual roots in the capital area."

"God will not let down those who work hard. The Spirit Testing Ceremony has received more than ten people with spiritual roots. They are all practicing in Yuelong Palace now."

"Among them are your clansmen, Xu Qing... Feng Xiong, come here!"

Xu Fengxiong, who was outside the hall, quickly walked in and bowed respectfully, saying, "I am Xu Fengxiong, your humble servant, and I pay my respects to your Majesty!"

"Join...General!"

"You are... Feng Xiong?"

Xu Mujun looked at Xu Fengxiong and quickly recognized him. He frowned and asked, "A member of the Xu family?"

"Yes……"

Xu Fengxiong gritted his teeth and said, "My father, Xu Mushan, is from the fourth branch..."

"His Majesty!"

Xu Mujun said in a deep voice: "The war in the south is over. I will ask for your permission to return to my tribe, so..."

"Ah~"

Zheng Yi stopped Xu Mujun and said, "Mr. Xu, Feng Xiong is not only a member of your Xu clan, but most importantly, he has spiritual roots and is a cultivator from Dayu."

"And I won't hide it from you. Feng Xiong's spiritual roots are of heavenly spiritual roots. He is a top-notch cultivation talent in the world. Any sect that comes will be eager to get him!"

"You can't take him back. I am still waiting for him to grow up and become the foundation of the Great Yu nation!"

"His Majesty……"

Xu Mujun wanted to say something but was interrupted by Zheng Yi again.

He waved his hand, signaling Xu Fengxiong to step back.

Then he pulled Xu Mujun to Zhao Suzhen and said, "Zhao Suzhen is the beloved disciple of Master Zhao Xizheng of Taiyi Sect. He is a foundation-building cultivator and truly a rare talent!"

Zhao Xizheng quickly bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Liao Zan, I am just a man from the mountains and fields."

For some reason, when Zhao Xi was facing Xu Mujun, he always felt that he was facing his own master.

Not angry.

A vague aura has been suppressing me.

Even though he was already a foundation-building cultivator at this time, he did not dare to respond casually.

after all……

Just now, Xu Mujun defeated a foundation-building cultivator in front of him with his own hands.

Moreover, he is a cultivator with natural spiritual roots!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little bitter.

Didn’t Master say that there are no foundation-building cultivators on this continent?

If I advance to the foundation building stage, I will definitely become the best in the world. How...

Just as he succeeded in building his foundation, he discovered that someone had built his foundation before him, and that person was a cultivator with natural spiritual roots.

Before he could react, another warrior suddenly appeared and defeated the cultivator with heavenly spiritual roots in just a few moves.

This……

Could it be that he has become a fake immortal?

"So you are the disciple of the old Heavenly Master. How has the old Heavenly Master been doing in recent years?"

Zhao Suzhen said respectfully: "I haven't been back to Taiyi Dao for three years. I need to go back after this breakthrough."

Facing Xu Mujun, he had to call himself a junior.

In the world of cultivation, strength is respected.

Xu Mujun is able to overwhelm the foundation-building cultivators. Even though he is just a mortal, he can still gain the respect of all cultivators.

Zheng Yi suddenly said, "Gentlemen, please take a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Only then did Zheng Yi let go of Xu Mujun's big hand and motioned for them to sit down.

"Suzhen, tell me about your experiences in the past few years."

Zheng Yi said, "Three years ago, Tianshi Zhao Suling asked me for a Shangwu Command Card. I am also very interested in your experiences in the past few years."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhao Suzhen stood up and said after a few moments of hesitation: "My experience... can be described as simple."

"Three years ago, I was ordered by my master to go down the mountain to practice. After traveling to most of the Jingji area, I found that the Jingji area was full of spiritual energy, far more than other places."

"I continued my journey and unexpectedly found a large number of spiritual medicines at the foot of Tianshou Mountain. However, there were a large number of imperial guards guarding the area at that time, so I did not approach."

"Then, under a deep pool at the foot of Fairy Peak in Tianshou Mountain, a cluster of the century-old elixir 'Deep Water Green Lotus' was discovered."

"This lotus is a pure water-attributed elixir. It is of great benefit to water-attributed cultivators. It can purify their magic power, making it easier for them to break through."

"And this lotus is different from other spiritual medicines. It grows in large numbers. I found at least thirty of them at that time."

"Just when I wanted to pick it, I found that the lotus was guarded by... the woman from the Tuoba family."

"After some communication, Tuoba Qingying used the location of a 'Thunder Flash Wood' spiritual plant as information in exchange for the ownership of this deep water blue lotus."

"According to Tuoba Qingying's information, I indeed found the lightning wood at the foot of Canglong Peak next to Fairy Peak."

"I am a cultivator with a special spiritual root of thunder attribute, so this item is also very important to me. I opened a cave next to the thunder flash tree and started to practice in silence."

Zhao Suzhen suddenly said: "Your Majesty!"

"The spiritual energy in the capital area is abundant, far exceeding that of other places, especially Tianshou Mountain, which is truly a blessed place!"

"I had an epiphany that day and had to practice in seclusion here. I have occupied your majesty's sacred place. I beg your majesty to forgive me."

Tian Xingzi suddenly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, this matter was caused by the old Taoist's negligence."

“Although Fairy Peak and Canglong Peak are not the main peaks of Tianshou Mountain, they are not far from the main peak. I, an old Taoist, did not even notice that two people had made a breakthrough here... Please forgive me, Your Majesty!”

"Hahaha~"

Zheng Yi laughed and said, "How could I be such a stingy person?"

"You two are both my people of Dayu, and have made great contributions to my country. What is the importance of a mere spiritual land?"

"After the construction of the mountain gate is completed, each of you can choose a peak as your own cave residence!"

As soon as the words fell, several people's eyes suddenly lit up.

Cave!

They all know that the place with the most spiritual energy in the capital area is Tianshou Mountain.

And Your Majesty was willing to grant them other peaks of Tianshou Mountain as cave dwellings.

This kind of kindness is greater than the sky!

Several people said in unison: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"His Majesty……!"

At this moment, Chen Liancang walked in quickly: "There is a cultivator named Xiong Gang outside the hall who wants to see you. I can't stop him..."

"Hahaha~!"

Before he could finish his words, a loud laugh accompanied by a tall figure walked in.

"Brother Xu! You are really fast. It seems that everything has been resolved."

"Is your beloved little emperor okay?"
