317: Xiancheng core area

Qingyuan City, Core Area.

After submitting his identity token and having it verified, Zhou Luo headed towards his residence.

On the way, some Cultivators occasionally passed by and were surprised to see such a large Family.

"Who is this person? He actually brought his whole Family to the Core Area?" someone asked via voice transmission.

"I don't know him, but that person must have quite a background, he's so generous," others also said with solemn expressions.

They looked at the handsome man leading the group, their hearts filled with immense surprise.

The Core Area is located above the Spirit Veins, and the spiritual energy is abundant, so anyone who comes here and possesses a Ling Gen (Spiritual Root) must pay a considerable amount of Spirit Stone.

Because the spiritual energy of a Spirit Veins is limited.

One more person practicing Cultivation consumes one more portion of spiritual energy.

Although the spiritual energy of the Spirit Veins underground is abundant enough that a few more people wouldn't matter.

But this is an area open to the public after all. If any Cultivator who moved in could bring their Family and friends casually, wouldn't the Core Area be overcrowded?

Now, the other party brought so many people, and all of them possess Ling Gen (Spiritual Root), so the Spirit Stone they need to pay is probably not small.

Looking at the entire Qingyuan Domain, perhaps only large forces and large families can be so extravagant.

After all, this is the Immortal City Core Area. The Spirit Stone for living here is much more than outside.

Zhou Luo didn't care about this.

Whether it was the pile of Family assets from the Lu Family or the profit share the Xue Family promised to provide annually, he was making a fortune. Not to mention the Xian Yuan Pavilion bringing him profits.

It can be said that in the entire Qingyuan Domain, apart from the Immortal Sect, the Lin Family has the most wealth.

And as the controller, Zhou Luo, spending some Spirit Stone to let his Family move into the Core Area was naturally not a problem.

He walked with his Family all the way, attracting continuous glances from others.

Everyone speculated about his origin.

And when the group reached a newly built large residence, those observing in secret were all taken aback.

Not long ago, there were rumors in the Core Area that Zhou Luo of the Lin Family would be moving here, so someone was specifically sent to renovate a residence.

Regarding this, the Immortals living here were all extremely curious.

They had also heard the rumors about Zhou Luo, knowing that he had consecutively killed two Foundation Establishment cultivators, was a Second-Order Alchemist, and could even refine Foundation Establishment Pills.

Among these, the most crucial point was being able to refine Foundation Establishment Pills.

There are only three types of people who can move into the Core Area: Foundation Establishment cultivators, Cultivators who are currently undergoing Foundation Establishment, and Cultivators preparing for Foundation Establishment.

The first two types are fine, but the most crucial is the last type.

Their desire for Foundation Establishment Pills is no less than that of outsiders.

Therefore, upon learning that Zhou Luo could refine Foundation Establishment Pills, these people were all eagerly waiting for him.

Now that he had finally arrived, he naturally attracted their attention.

Zhou Luo stood in front of the ancient and elegant residence. Above the plaque, the two large characters "Zhou Residence" were specifically written with a spiritual brush, the calligraphy grand and imposing.

Most of the Core Area is used for caves where people break through to Foundation Establishment or prepare for Foundation Establishment. There are only about a dozen large residences like this, specifically provided for Cultivators of extraordinary status.

Like Sun Alchemist before, or some Foundation Establishment cultivators, etc.

With Zhou Luo's dual identity, he was naturally allowed to live here.

Creak—

Pushing open the door, the first sight was a large road paved with bluestone bricks, with flowers blooming profusely and rock gardens standing tall on the sides. On the left and right were rows of simple and ancient rooms connected by long corridors, the layout very simple and comfortable.

This is the front courtyard, and Zhou Luo planned to arrange the servants here.

After all, with such a large Family, servants must be arranged to serve them.

Anyway, ordinary people living in the Core Area do not need to pay Spirit Stone.

Walking further in, one could see a pavilion that was five stories high. The pavilion was built with special wood and stones, and exquisite patterns were painted on it, making it look magnificent.

This is the main building. Adjacent to the main building is a single-story redwood building. Spiritual light flickers around the building, and array patterns are imprinted on it. It occupies a vast area and is a Pill Refining Room specially prepared for Zhou Luo.

Besides these, the surrounding buildings are fully functional and have everything one needs.

Zhou Luo was very satisfied with this residence, so he let Yao Wu take the two children to choose their rooms in the main building, while he led the other concubines to the other rooms nearby.

He glanced at the concubines with skin like congealed fat and faces like spring peaches, and said gently, "From now on, you will live here. Try not to go out to avoid attracting any trouble."

"After some Time, I will have someone send a batch of servants over. When that Time comes, whatever you need, just tell them."

"I've already made it clear to you before coming, and I'll say it again. If you don't want to live here, tell me anytime, and I will arrange for someone to send you back."

His voice was mellow and calm as water, giving the women a heads-up.

This Core Area is different from the outside world. You can encounter Second Order skill masters or Foundation Establishment cultivators everywhere, so you must be extra cautious.

Hearing this, the women nodded one after another.

Although they couldn't go out after living here, everyone was actually very grateful in their hearts.

Because cultivating in the Core Area is much better than cultivating outside.

Especially the concentration of spiritual energy here, which is far beyond the outside.

They were originally tools for Family marriages, and some were even purchased Concubine (concubines). At first, they only hoped to live a stable life.

But now, having such an excellent place for them to practice Cultivation, without having to worry about outside influences, they are naturally extremely satisfied.

How could they dare to have other thoughts?

After briefly finishing speaking, he let the women disperse to prepare.

Outside.

The news of Zhou Luo moving into the Core Area quickly spread throughout the entire Qingyuan City like a tornado.

Those Cultivators who had been waiting for a long Time gathered in the Core Area, wanting to visit.

It's a pity that the Core Area regulations stipulate that unless invited by the Master, unrelated people are not allowed to enter.

To enter, one must purchase a residence in the Core Area.

The Spirit Stone required for these residences is not small, and they are all for a period of one year.

This step stopped many Cultivators who wanted to visit, but there were also some Cultivators who gritted their teeth and bought residences in the Core Area.

As for the people in the Core Area, they also wanted to visit.

But thinking that the other party had just moved in and must still have a lot of things to do, they were very sensible and did not go directly to the door.

On the third day of Zhou Luo's arrival, Wang Lang led a group of capable and clever servants to this large residence.

Looking at this magnificent and grand residence, as well as the dense spiritual energy of the sky and earth around it, Wang Lang couldn't help but sigh, "This Core Area and the Inner City are truly like night and day."

Entering the residence, Zhou Luo sat upright in the main seat of the main building's great Hall Master.

Wang Lang bowed respectfully, his manner deferential, "Grand Manager, the people have been brought."

"Okay, how is the Xian Yuan Pavilion doing recently?" Zhou Luo asked.

"Thanks to the Grand Manager, the store's business is booming now, and it's packed with people every day," Wang Lang replied truthfully.

Due to Zhou Luo's great reputation, the Xian Yuan Pavilion is now the hottest place in the Immortal City, bar none.

Countless Cultivators used the excuse of buying things to see if they could strike it lucky and accidentally meet Zhou Luo, the Grand Manager, there.

Since they came, they would definitely buy something more or less.

Therefore, the business of the Xian Yuan Pavilion is now even better than when it first opened, not worse.

Zhou Luo nodded with satisfaction and asked about some other matters.

Wang Lang answered them one by one, and when mentioning the expansion of the business, his expression was serious, "Grand Manager, I was just about to tell you about this."
