484: The last main ingredient of the golden elixir

Zhou Changtian displayed terrifying talent, which led him not to join the Azure Origin Sect but instead follow Yao Wu into the Wan Gu Sect, becoming her first direct Disciple.

Don't look at how the Wan Gu Sect and the Ice Snow Sect are currently probing and fighting each other; the entire Sect is still trending towards stability.

During these five years, with the help of the Sect, and relying on her powerful Gu technique talent, Yao Wu's strength has advanced by leaps and bounds.

In just a few short years, she has already reached the Foundation Establishment Late Stage.

Now, she has completely taken control of Lieyang Mountain, and at the same time, the Sect's monthly benefits have returned to their previous state.

This way, it's equivalent to her alone enjoying the benefits of the entire mountain peak.

This naturally aroused the covetousness of others in the Sect.

After all, on the other mountain peaks, there are many monks and little porridge; everyone is desperately striving for their own benefits.

And you, being just one person, monopolize an entire cake; everyone will naturally feel dissatisfied.

Some Elders have even begun to submit applications to the Sect, requesting that benefit distribution be restricted while Lieyang Mountain has not yet truly entered normal operation.

Because of this matter, Yao Wu had to start considering recruiting Disciples.

This way, those secretly covetous individuals suddenly became extremely enthusiastic, all wanting to send themselves or the people around them into Lieyang Mountain.

Because this large piece of cake currently has few people, anyone who can enter Lieyang Mountain will surely enjoy many benefits.

This also led to a large number of uneven Cultivators pouring in, and some Elders even actively sent their own Disciples to Yao Wu.

After Zhou Luo learned about this matter, he chose to send Zhou Changtian over.

Over the years, under his guidance, Zhou Changtian has perfectly inherited his strengths, being extremely cautious in his actions and wise, with a strong sense of the overall situation.

Sending him over can also help the other party better.

Now, Zhou Changtian has become Yao Wu's first direct Disciple and the Senior Brother of Lieyang Mountain.

And with his help in screening, Yao Wu has taken in more than a dozen Disciples.

Naturally, some people were also sent over by other Elders, their purpose naturally being to share the cake.

Zhou Luo is not worried about this.

He believes that with Zhou Changtian there, everything should be fine.

Besides the Wan Gu Sect side, over the past five years, the Azure Origin Sect, after experiencing that great battle and undergoing a large-scale recruitment of Disciples, has also gradually recovered.

It's just that Zhou Changle had refused his Revered Master's suggestion back then.

This has led to the Heaven Alliance being heavily targeted, and its internal Disciples have been continuously divided, with its influence far less than before.

This is the result Zhou Luo had already anticipated.

It's also good to show weakness appropriately, saving the Sect from directly disbanding this organization.

Although the Heaven Alliance is not as good as before, as long as either Zhou Changle or Zhou Changqing becomes a Golden Core True Person, the situation will undergo a world-shaking change.

Currently, what they need to do is slowly build a solid foundation for the Heaven Alliance so that it can maintain stable operation.

Moreover, as his children and the Zhou Family's descendants continuously enter the Azure Origin Sect, the basic framework of the Heaven Alliance has been constructed, and its final formation is only a matter of Time.

In addition, the latest leak of the whereabouts of the fleeing Long Yunshuang was in the Snow Region.

The Snow Region is located at the border between the Jinyun Continent and the Central Continent. Once she crosses the Snow Region, she can directly enter the Central Continent and head to the Imperial City where the Fiery Cloud Royal Family is located.

By then, Long Yu's position as Prince would likely be in jeopardy.

Therefore, Long Yu showed exceptional determination regarding this matter. He didn't hesitate to mobilize a large number of troops to the Snow Region for searching and even wanted to directly blockade the border.

But the Ice Snow Sect is currently in full swing; how could they allow the other party to enter their vast territory so wantonly?

So both sides also started bickering with each other, and there has been no result yet.

This, from another perspective, alleviated the conflict between the Ice Snow Sect and the Wan Gu Sect.

"Father, is Aunt Yuwei really not coming back?"

On the stone stool in the backyard, Xiao Shiyi asked in a childish voice.

In these five years of being together, although she didn't know that Wang Yuwei was her biological Mother, that natural sense of closeness made her extremely fond of the other person, often going to play with her.

Now that she heard the other party had left, the little one couldn't help but feel a bit sad.

Zhou Luo smiled faintly: "Although Aunt Yuwei is not coming back, you can go find her when you grow up."

"Really?" Xiao Shiyu said with surprise on her little face.

Zhou Luo nodded: "So you must cultivate diligently. When you join her Sect in the future, you will be able to find her."

"That will take a long time. But what if Aunt Yuwei forgets me?"

Xiao Shiyu pouted, saying with helplessness.

Although this little one is only five years old, due to her Ling Gen (Spiritual Root), she is more precocious than her peers, and her speech and actions far surpass others'.

"How could that be? Don't you have the jade pendant she gave you around your neck?" Zhou Luo chuckled.

A phoenix-shaped jade pendant hung around Zhou Shiyu's neck, and a faint glow still circulated on it.

This was a top-grade Foundation Establishment magic tool, and it was also the only treasure Wang Yuwei, as a Mother, gave to her child.

"That's right."

Xiao Shiyu nodded, then covered the jade pendant with her small hand: "Then I must keep it safe."

Just as he was talking to his daughter, Wang Lang walked in from outside with quick steps.

He had followed Zhou Luo for so long. Although he hadn't successfully reached Foundation Establishment yet, he had already entered the ninth layer of Qi Training early on, and he wasn't far from breaking through.

"Grand Manager, good news! There's news about that immortal wood heart." Wang Lang looked at Zhou Luo holding the child in the backyard and said with joy.

That year, after I killed Zhu Zhifeng, I obtained a large pile of Materials for condensing a Golden Core.

It's just that five years have passed, and those Materials are still missing one main ingredient, which is this immortal wood heart.

It is said that this immortal wood grows on Penglai Immortal Island, soaked in Essence Qi. Even if cut down, it will not rot for ten thousand years. If it can be ground into medicinal powder and consumed, it can greatly increase Lifespan.

And this immortal wood heart is even rarer; basically, only one will be born among a hundred immortal woods.

Therefore, for five years, Zhou Luo had not found this item.

Now, there is finally some news.

"Where?" Zhou Luo immediately asked.

"It's at this year's Golden Cloud Auction House," Wang Lang replied.

The large-scale auction in Golden Cloud Immortal City is usually held only once every five years.

Unexpectedly, there will be an immortal wood heart this time.

Zhou Luo's heart immediately stirred.

If he could obtain this immortal wood heart, then to condense a Golden Core, he would only need Time to stabilize his Realm.

It's just that the last time he went to Golden Cloud Immortal City, he encountered many crises, and many problems arose later on.

If he goes this time, it's uncertain whether he will be coveted by others again.

But his Breakthrough is imminent. If he misses this immortal wood heart, it's unknown when he will be able to obtain it again.

With this thought, Zhou Luo finally chose to go to the Golden Cloud Auction House.
