Given True Lord Kuishui's character, he naturally wouldn't really care about the lives of the two Jindan stage cultivators.
The main reason why he let the two Zhou brothers go was because of Lin Zhongtian's order...
After achieving the golden elixir, Lin Zhongtian's clone learned many basic spells and magical powers without any instruction, including calling the wind and rain, as well as the ability to sense danger and calculate opportunities.
And because of his extremely powerful spiritual awareness, this basic magical power has become extremely powerful.
Therefore, before the two people came close, Lin Zhongtian keenly sensed the importance of these two people, as if they had a close relationship with the time traveler he was looking for.
Therefore, Lin Zhongtian used his spiritual sense to transmit a message to True Lord Kuishui to let the two of them go, and secretly tracked them down to find out their background.
Of course, Lin Zhongtian also knew very well that this so-called perception and calculation ability actually came from the feedback of the way of heaven.
The Way of Heaven constrains the long river of time in the multiverse of immortal cultivation, and the information it conveys will basically not be wrong or missed.
When in Rome, do as the Romans do. With a mechanical consciousness that is half a degree higher than him helping him, Lin Zhongtian was too lazy to do it himself.
He had originally planned to break through directly to the Spirit Transformation Stage and reach the peak of cultivation in this world, but now that he had obtained clues about the time traveler, Lin Zhongtian changed his mind and decided to look for his fellow villager first.
"Come on, follow me to Qingli Island."
"Yes, Master!"
True Lord Kuishui saluted respectfully, and then waved his hand, and a hundred-meter-long ice dragon covered with ice-blue scales appeared in the air.
This is the mount of True Lord Kuishui, a fifth-order ice dragon equivalent to the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.
Lin Zhongtian looked at the ice-blue dragon with great interest, and suddenly felt that he should also have a mount.
After a little thought, Lin Zhongtian waved his hand and tore the space apart.
The next moment, a deafening tiger roar came from the crack.
A silver light shot out from the space crack, and the originally mountain-like body quickly shrank in mid-air, and finally turned into a silver cub the size of a house cat, which excitedly jumped into Lin Zhongtian's arms.
"Changan, how is the practice of the technique I taught you going?"
Lin Zhongtian smiled and rubbed the silver tiger head in his arms.
Chang'an raised his head excitedly and let out a coquettish growl at Lin Zhongtian.
The tiger's roar turned into sound waves that spread out, mixed with an extremely ethereal aura.
Sensing this breath, the ice dragon under True Lord Kuishui trembled immediately and didn't even dare to make a sound.
Neither Lin Zhongtian and Chang'an, nor Kuishui Zhenjun who was standing on the back of the ice dragon were surprised by this.
After all, Chang'an is a pet bred by Lin Zhongtian using special methods. To a certain extent, it is a follower of his subjective consciousness and naturally carries the aura of his subjective consciousness.
Although True Lord Kuishui was not clear about the true meaning of this aura, he believed that his master was the reincarnation of a powerful being from the immortal world.
This silver tiger that was summoned from somewhere was probably the descendant of some immortal beast, or even the immortal beast itself.
It is very normal for such an existence to suppress the bloodline of a mere fifth-order ice dragon.
Lin Zhongtian was intimate with Chang'an for a while, then he rubbed its head, hugged its body and threw it forward.
In an instant, Chang'an's body swelled up in the wind, from a small tiger the size of a house cat, into a three-meter-long silver giant tiger. Silver light emerged from both sides of its back, forming two silver wings.
"roar!!"
Chang'an turned his head in mid-air and roared at Lin Zhongtian.
Lin Zhongtian flew to the back of the winged silver tiger, and then looked at True Lord Kuishui and said.
"From today on, call me Northern Water Virtue Star Shichen Zhenjun, or Water Virtue Zhenjun for short!"
Kuishui Zhenjun was slightly startled, then bowed respectfully: "This old slave understands!"
Lin Zhongtian nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand to signal Kuishui Zhenjun to lead the way.
The reason for this name, in addition to corresponding to his water-based skills and water-based magical powers, is also to allow travelers from this world to know his identity at the first opportunity.
As for whether it would offend the genuine Water Virtue Master of the next multiverse...
To put it bluntly, Lin Zhongtian didn't think that offending him was a big deal.
"Let's go, lead the way."
"Yes, Master!"
Kuishui Zhenjun saluted respectfully, then controlled the dragon and flew towards Qingli Island.
…
…
Starry Sea, Qingli Island.
The Dantang Quiet Room next to the Qingyu Hall in the north.
Zhou Shengwei and Zhou Shengzhi, who had just escaped from danger, came here and called out the head of the family Zhou Tianyi who was refining medicine. With a horrified look on their faces, they told Zhou Tianyi everything that had just happened.
Zhou Tianyi frowned and couldn't help but let out a long sigh after listening to it.
"Uncle, you are confused!"
“When the precious Immortal Root came to the world, the three major sects and the two major families called for reinforcements from the upper realms, but they still returned empty-handed. Moreover, they kept it a secret afterwards. You are just a Jindan stage cultivator, how dare you take the risk alone? If you really die at the hands of that mysterious senior, the great situation that my Zhou family has built up for decades will be ruined in an instant by you!”
Zhou Tianyi had a look of disappointment on his face.
Zhou Shengwei looked ashamed, but this shame was not because he was scolded by his nephew, but because he really regretted his behavior.
This situation where the head of the family scolds the family ancestor is naturally rare in other immortal cultivation families.
But the Zhou family is different. Zhou Tianyi knows that his cultivation level is low and his seniority is low. Therefore, when doing things within the clan, he always likes to use the moral kidnapping method that keyboard warriors in his previous life were best at. In the name of the head of the family and the family, he forces those ancestors with higher cultivation levels than him to submit.
What the immortal cultivation family values most is to cultivate the family members' sense of belonging to the family.
Whether it is the Jindan ancestor or the young child practicing Qigong, they all like Zhou Tianyi's methods very much.
With the skills he learned in his previous life, Zhou Tianyi, with his cultivation in the foundation-building stage, became the undisputed helmsman of the entire family.
Even Jindan cultivators like Zhou Shengwei and Zhou Shengzhi have to submit in front of Zhou Tianyi.
After a moment of hesitation, Zhou Tianyi said with a serious face: "Zhou Shengwei, I order you in the name of the Zhou family's Patriarch. From now on, you are not allowed to step out of Qingli Island for ten years until this incident is over. Do you understand?"
"Understood."
Zhou Shengwei sighed and nodded in agreement.
Zhou Tianyi was still worried, so he turned to look at Zhou Shengzhi: "Third Uncle, please help me keep an eye on Second Uncle. Don't let him act rashly again."
Zhou Shengzhi nodded slightly, glared at his second brother beside him, and said, "Don't worry, nephew Tianyi, I will take good care of him."
After getting the assurance from his calmer uncle, Zhou Tianyi felt a little relieved and turned around to walk into the Alchemy Hall.
"Wait!" Zhou Shengwei hurriedly called him, and then took out a green porcelain bottle from his arms, "I almost forgot, this is a bottle of Yunmai Dan that the third brother and I exchanged in Tianqing Market. With it, your chances of forming a pill will be greatly increased."
"...Thank you, uncle."
Zhou Tianyi took it with some surprise, and then said seriously: "But let's be honest, don't expect me to take back my order."
"I know." Zhou Shengwei smiled bitterly, then straightened his face and said, "Regarding the formation of the elixir, no matter what questions you have, just ask. My third brother, ancestor Wenyuan and I will tell you everything we know."
"The Zhou family can live without me, Zhou Shengwei, but it can never live without you, Zhou Tianyi!"
Zhou Tianyi felt warm in his heart and nodded gently, "I saved it."
After returning to the Alchemy Hall, Zhou Tianyi walked to the deepest part of the hall and passed through dozens of restrictions before entering the alchemy room.
At this time, there was a woman in a purple gauze skirt sitting cross-legged in front of the hot alchemy furnace in the alchemy room, controlling the flames and concentrating on refining a furnace of second-level pills.
Zhou Tianyi walked into the room, leaned against the wall, played with the green porcelain bottle in his hand, and silently watched the woman making the elixir.
The woman was wearing a purple gauze skirt and had a slim and well-proportioned figure. Her face, illuminated by the purple fire, was breathtakingly beautiful, enough to make any man unable to help but feel desire when he looked at it.
Not long after, the fairy in purple skirt made a seal with her hands, and the alchemy furnace in front of her suddenly opened, and six round pills flew out of it.
Seeing this scene, both the Fairy in Purple Skirt and Zhou Tianyi couldn't help but smile.
"Another six foundation-building pills, Fairy Liu, your alchemy skills are becoming more and more sophisticated!"
"Thanks to you for finding enough materials for me."
Fairy Liu stood up with a smile, and with her bare hands, she divided the six foundation-building pills into two piles.
She took two of them away herself and put the other four into the prepared white porcelain bottle and handed them to Zhou Tianyi.
Zhou Tianyi took the white porcelain bottle with a smile, and then handed over the green porcelain bottle in his hand.
"Fairy Liu, this is a bottle of Meridian Pill that my second uncle got in exchange. I believe you need it more than I do."
“…”
Fairy Liu was slightly startled, then shook her head and said, "I have the Four Seas Sect's secret technique for forming a pill, which can increase the success rate of forming a pill. This Yunmai Pill is a gift from your second uncle, and it is very precious. You should use it yourself!"
Zhou Tianyi shook his head and shoved the green porcelain bottle into Fairy Liu's hands in a tough manner.
"I am the patriarch of the Zhou family. My cultivation level is not important. But you are different. Only if you can form a pill as soon as possible and cultivate the Four Seas Tempering Spirit Art, can we enter the secret realm left by the Four Seas Sect..."
Fairy Liu looked at him steadily, and suddenly said in a faint voice: "So, you are still after the Four Seas Sect Secret Realm, right?"
Zhou Tianyi sighed softly: "As I just said, I am the head of the Zhou family, so I naturally have to put my family first."
Fairy Liu lowered her eyes and whispered, "Is family so important to you?"
Zhou Tianyi said softly: "My parents died young, and I was raised by countless elders of the Zhou family. Ancestor Wenyuan admired my methods, so he recommended me as the head of the family against all odds. I will naturally do my best to repay the kindness of raising me and recognizing my talents."
Fairy Liu was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Then... when can I pay it back?"
