Upon hearing this, Zhou Xun showed a look of surprise.
Unexpectedly, after this breakthrough, this person's artifact refining skill greatly increased, allowing him to refine top-grade spiritual artifacts and master the method of handling magical treasure materials,
it seems his artifact refining heritage is quite extraordinary.
It can be said that with such mastery, his status in White Cloud Immortal City is by no means inferior to that of those Middle-Stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.
As for that Fairy Mingyue, she offered a Tier Two magic robe, entirely blue with cloud patterns as decoration, extremely remarkable.
"Rumeng has no other skills, only the art of weaving magic robes is passable. This Qingyun Robe is refined from the silk of the Feiyunn Silkworm, impervious to water and fire, and ordinary Tier Two entry-level spells cannot harm it!"
The Feiyunn Silkworm is a peculiar insect, its silk is the top-grade material for magic robes, and the refined robes not only feel comfortable to wear but also have excellent defensive effects.
It is an extremely superior item.
The two people in front of him, one mastered superior artifact refining techniques, and the other mastered the art of breeding Feiyunn Silkworms and weaving magic robes, both are exceptional talents.
"You two Daoists are so polite, Zhou Mou will not decline and will accept them!"
Saying this, he put the two treasures into his storage bag.
"By the way, the two of us have another matter for coming here!"
"Nine months ago, after we both achieved Foundation Establishment, we joined the Immortal City as honored guest elders and, influenced by Alchemist Zhou, we also rented Wuli Mountain as our Dao field!"
"As neighbors, naturally, we need to pay a visit!"
Speaking of Wuli Mountain, both of them showed satisfied expressions.
Wuli Mountain is located seven thousand miles west of Wangchuan Lake, it is a Tier Two Low-Grade Spirit Vein under the jurisdiction of White Cloud Immortal City.
The spirit vein covers more than ten miles, much larger than Zhou Xun's place.
"Haha, in that case, we are neighbors once again, let's keep in touch often in the future!" Zhou Xun laughed.
"Indeed so!"
Afterward, the three of them had a pleasant conversation, which lasted till the evening before they left.
Before leaving, Zhou Xun gifted the two of them Yuan Condensing Pills for Early-Stage Foundation Establishment expenses.
In the following half-year, the two of them visited several times, and each visit was accompanied by generous gifts.
Even Song Yiqing received a high-grade spiritual artifact and a high-end magic robe from them.
"Husband, Elder Fang and Elder Li are truly generous people!" Song Yiqing said joyfully.
"But seeing how they are inseparable, it seems they are about to become Dao companions!"
Zhou Xun nodded.
After half a year's acquaintance, Zhou Xun also understood the story between the two of them.
It can be said to be rather unusual.
Originally, Fang Tianlun was a downtrodden artifact refiner who accidentally met Fairy Mingyue of Junyue Tower, Li Ruming.
Somehow, the two of them took a liking to each other.
With Fairy Mingyue's substantial support, Fang Tianlun's talent in artifact refining was quickly brought out.
In just over a decade, he became a high-grade artifact refiner and established a foundation in Golden Spring Lane.
Subsequently, the two of them supported each other and even sought the materials for Foundation Establishment Pills.
With Zhou Xun's help, they obtained two Foundation Establishment Pills and both achieved Foundation Establishment, making it a remarkable story in White Cloud Immortal City.
"Daoist Fang is affectionate and righteous, Fairy Mingyue has a discerning eye, both of them are truly outstanding talents of their time!"
Zhou Xun highly praised them.
Half a year later, Fang Tianlun and Fairy Mingyue held a Dao companion ceremony at Wuli Mountain, having supported each other for years, the lovers finally became a couple,
achieving a perfect ending.
Decades later, they founded a new cultivation family, the Wuli Fang Family, and later even followed Zhou Xun
embarking on an even higher path, but those are stories for another time.
...
Time flew by, and a year and a half passed.
The door to the cultivation room, which had been closed for a month, finally opened once more.
A young man dressed in a blue robe stepped out from inside.
"Finally, reached the sixth layer of Foundation Establishment!"
Perhaps it was due to the extreme of his High-Grade Spirit Root, this time during his seclusion, Zhou Xun broke through to the sixth layer without any obstacles.
Originally, he thought he would be stuck at the peak of the Fifth-Layer Foundation Establishment for a while.
Unexpectedly, everything went so smoothly.
This year, Zhou Xun was fifty-three years old.
It had been six years since his last breakthrough, roughly one year faster than Zhou Xun had estimated.
Based on the current pace, it's estimated that in another six years, he would reach the peak of the sixth layer of Foundation Establishment.
By then, he would only be fifty-nine years old.
It's conceivable that he might achieve the Late-Stage Foundation Establishment before turning sixty.
Actually, he had anticipated all of this.
After all, as his cultivation deepened, his Spirit Root talent continued to improve, like a snowball effect.
The further he progresses, the faster it becomes.
His current cultivation progression, even within the Cloud Light Sect, would be considered a prodigy.
Exiting the cultivation room, he heard Song Yiqing's joyful voice:
"Husband, you've come out of seclusion, have you had another breakthrough!"
Zhou Xun smiled and nodded.
"Congratulations, husband!" Song Yiqing said with a smile.
"Coincidentally, Sister Weih has sent over a Middle-Grade Red Spirit Dragon Fish, I'll prepare it for you to taste!"
"Oh, that spirit fish has been cultivated to the Tier One Middle-Grade level!" Zhou Xun said in surprise.
He remembered that five years ago, those dragon fish had not even reached the entry tier.
"There are only a few of them for now, but Sister Weih said it's good news worth letting you, the master of the Dao field, taste!"
"Hahaha, she is considerate, you go to the warehouse and get a few bottles of Late-Stage Qi Refining pills for her, encourage her to cultivate more middle-grade spirit fish!" Zhou Xun said.
"As for that spirit fish, no need to rush!" Zhou Xun looked at Song Yiqing with eyes full of affection.
Wearing a plain silk palace skirt, the curves of her figure were faintly visible beneath it.
"This girl is becoming more and more attractive!"
Zhou Xun praised her in his heart, immediately scooping her delicate body up.
"Ah!"
A coquettish voice was heard, followed by a green spirit light rising to the sky, stopping on a white cloud.
The following morning, the flying shuttle slowly descended, stopping in the courtyard.
Song Yiqing, her hair in disarray and face a little flushed, stepped down from the flying shuttle.
Recalling yesterday's frenzy, she couldn't help but savor it.
"Husband is becoming more formidable!"
Then she looked at Zhou Xun and said:
"Qing'er will go cook that Red Spirit Dragon Fish!"
"Go ahead!" Zhou Xun smiled as he put the flying shuttle back into his storage bag.
A moment later, a pot filled with rich fish soup was brought up.
As the lid was lifted, an intoxicating aroma spread throughout the room, the milky white fish soup coupled with the tender white fish meat glowed with a jade-like luster.
Zhou Xun took a deep breath, his appetite stirred.
Song Yiqing extended her jade-like hands and served Zhou Xun a bowl, placing it in front of him.
"Husband, please!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Xun nodded, picked up a jade spoon, scooped up a mouthful, and gently placed it in his mouth.
An intense fragrance instantly erupted, lingering in his mouth and teeth.
Exquisite! Delicious!
As if standing amidst the clouds!
At the same time, a pure spiritual qi rose from his abdomen.
Unfortunately, it was too thin to make much difference for Zhou Xun at his current level, though it was a valuable supportive item for Song Yiqing, saving her several days of arduous cultivation with each sip.
Thus, Zhou Xun returned to his peaceful life of cultivation.
Every day, he cultivated, drank tea, and enjoyed the scenery.
Just like that, half a year flew by.
One day, while Zhou Xun was practicing drawing talismans, a strong mana aura suddenly rose from a distance.
