I use my future dreams to prove immortality.

Chapter 89 Darkness

"Thank you so much, Senior Sister!"

Even though Zhou Qiuyuan was a novice, he knew that Wei Xia had given him preferential treatment.

Dao Bing's annual salary and the spirit stones he earned from purifying spiritual energy all belonged to him. The spirit stones he accumulated over time were not a small amount, making it easier for him to embark on the path of cultivation.

Harmfulness is not allowed, and defensiveness is indispensable.

The Golden Essence is crucial to whether Zhou Qiuyuan can successfully embark on the path of cultivation. He dares not take the risk before confirming it through his future dream.

He doesn't mind waiting a while longer, and if the dream cannot be restored in the future, he will make the worst-case scenario plan.

"Dao soldiers are not allowed to enter and leave sects at will. Do not wander around the Blackwater Sect to avoid causing trouble."

"Senior sister spends most of her time in seclusion cultivating. You are responsible for guarding this place. If any outsiders come, notify them according to the importance of the situation."

"If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask Gu Hongzhuang."

After speaking, Wei Xia went into seclusion to cultivate.

Her cultivation level had broken through to the mid-stage of Qi Refining, and her master had just bestowed upon her a suitable high-grade magic weapon. During this time, she still needed to familiarize herself with the new magic weapon and earn cultivation resources.

There were quite a few vacant rooms here, so Zhou Qiuyuan found a side room in the east building to use as his residence.

Knowing that Zhou Qiuyuan was new to the area, Gu Hongzhuang took the initiative to explain the rules of the Blackwater Sect.

"This place is not the main sect of the Blackwater Sect, but a branch sect. After the changes in the world, the Blackwater Sect established branch sects in every market town, and each branch sect has a Golden Core stage branch sect master in charge."

"There are seven Foundation Establishment stage elders in the Blackwater Sect, and Wei Xia Xian Shi's master is one of them. She has a high status in the sect."

"You must not be arrogant, lest you bring trouble upon Master Wei Xia."

Zhou Qiuyuan nodded and replied, "I will not cause trouble for my senior sister."

Gu Hongzhuang explained, "Inner disciples receive one Dao soldier upon entering the sect. Reaching the mid-stage of Qi Refining grants an additional Dao soldier, and reaching the late-stage of Qi Refining grants two more Dao soldier slots."

"Do outer disciples have Dao soldiers?" Zhou Qiuyuan remembered that after becoming a cultivator, a Dao soldier could be promoted to an outer disciple.

Gu Hongzhuang shook her head and said, "This is a privilege only inner disciples receive! Outer disciples can only support themselves, and only those who reach the late stage of Qi Refining can have a Dao Soldier quota."

"Normally, only body cultivators at the Vajra Realm can become Immortal Masters and Dao Soldiers. This level of strength is more efficient at purifying the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. When completing sect missions, Dao Soldiers can also protect the Dharma and safeguard the Dao."

"Your body refinement level is too low. You can only purify the equivalent of three spirit stones' worth of spiritual energy each month. For now, focus on cultivating diligently and reach the Vajra Realm as soon as possible before using the Furnace Scripture to purify the spiritual energy of heaven and earth."

"Dao soldiers can receive ten portions of Vajra Realm cultivation medicines each month. I have quite a few Inner Refinement stage medicines that I can exchange with you. Ten Inner Refinement stage medicines for one Vajra Realm medicine."

Zhou Qiuyuan asked many more questions about the Blackwater Sect, and Gu Hongzhuang, wanting to befriend him, patiently answered them.

"Thank you for your explanation, Miss Gu. I am willing to exchange for the secret medicine."

The Vajra Soul-Piercing Pill is a secret medicine for the Vajra Realm, and it is useless to Zhou Qiuyuan. He can exchange it for a secret medicine for the Inner Refinement Stage to improve his strength.

Zhou Qiuyuan took out ten Vajra Soul-Penetrating Pills and exchanged them for a full one hundred Crimson Origin Cleansing Pills.

The Chiyuan Tongzang Dan has extremely strong and universal effects, and it has remarkable effects on tempering the five internal organs and six bowels.

He didn't know when the dream would return, so he stayed here to cultivate peacefully and wait for it to recover.

Gu Hongzhuang brought over bedding and a few well-fitting clothes, which must have been prepared in advance by her master.

A warm feeling welled up in Zhou Qiuyuan's heart. After closing the door, he began to cultivate.

Thunder Heart is one of the core elements of Yang Thunder Transformation. The medicinal properties of Crimson Origin Cleansing Pill are fire-oriented, making it extremely effective in tempering Thunder Heart.

After swallowing a pill, an extremely powerful medicinal force spread throughout the body, making the body feel as if it were in a furnace.

Its efficacy is five to six times stronger than ordinary pills purchased on the market, and it is far superior to the Dragon Tiger Bright Bone Pill that I used before.

Zhou Qiuyuan took it together with a pill called Shenyuan Milu Pill, which greatly shortened the time spent on internal cultivation.

……

Five days passed in the blink of an eye. Zhou Qiuyuan had tempered his heart, liver, spleen, and kidneys once, and with the addition of the Yang Lei lung, which had been tempered the earliest, all five internal organs had now been tempered.

The focus can then be on refining the Thunder Heart and Thunder Liver.

Zhou Qiuyuan looked up into the distance. Wei Xia had never gone out and saw Gu Hongzhuang every day.

The daily meals of body cultivators are delivered to their door by servants from the Blackwater Sect, or they can go to the dining hall to eat with others.

Zhou Qiuyuan was unfamiliar with the place and had no interest in making friends with the soldiers of other immortal masters. So, as Gu Hongzhuang had arranged, his three meals a day were delivered to his door by servants.

After a day of cultivation, he felt slightly tired and fell into a deep sleep.

Sleepiness came quickly and disappeared even faster. When Zhou Qiuyuan opened his eyes again, a hazy gray mist appeared before him, giving him the feeling of seeing flowers through a fog.

The Dream of the Future is back!

The weight that had been hanging over Zhou Qiuyuan's heart finally lifted.

If you die in a future dream, is the recovery time seven days?

Zhou Qiuyuan did not experience a second death in a future dream, so he could only silently remember the incident.

He moved his body from side to side, in high spirits. He suppressed the impulse surging in his heart and silently began to cultivate the Zhen Shen Yin technique, which he had not yet mastered.

He cultivated until dawn before suppressing his excitement and arriving at Wei Xia's cultivation spot, where he activated the restriction.

"Senior sister, I have a favor to ask."

Wearing a Xuan Shui Daoist robe, Wei Xia slowly walked out of the cultivation grounds, the phoenix on the Li Huo Feng hairpin on her head emitting a faint red light.

Disturbed by external affairs during her seclusion, she frowned and asked, "What is it?"

Now in the dream of the future, Zhou Qiuyuan did not hide anything and said, "Junior brother has a piece of golden essence. I wonder if this can be exchanged for a low-grade thunder spirit root."

Wei Xia's gaze sharpened as he carefully examined Zhou Qiuyuan.

"Golden essence? Why didn't you mention that you have this? Don't you trust your senior sister?"

"This item is still in the outer city? You didn't bring it directly into the inner city, did you?"

"In the early years, many people obtained the opportunity to become immortals outside the city and embarked on the path of cultivation. The rare and precious materials they obtained attracted the covetous eyes of many cultivators with ulterior motives."

"A special restriction has been deliberately set up in the array at the entrance to the inner city, which can detect whether those entering the inner city are carrying precious rare and precious materials."

"Without a storage bag to conceal it, you cannot hide the restrictions when carrying the gold essence into the inner city, let alone enter the inner city safely."

Zhou Qiuyuan broke out in a cold sweat, extremely relieved that he hadn't brought the golden essence into the inner city.

At that moment, he sensed the dark side of the inner city that no one knew about.

I never expected that there would be such a secret when entering the inner city from the outer city.

Unbeknownst to ordinary people, they happily brought rare and precious materials into the city, hoping to exchange them for the opportunity to embark on the path of cultivation.

But before they could turn their rare treasures into cash, they were targeted and eventually devoured, leaving not even bones behind.
