Cultivation Begins From The Desert

As the saying goes, if you want a horse to run, you have to feed the horse.

After Zhou Yang drove the three "golden wool sheep" to the junction of the sand sea and the oasis, no matter how he drove them, the three monster sheep refused to step into the sand sea.

It wasn't until he had a flash of inspiration in his mind that he took out a handful of the first-order spiritual grass "Moon Dew Grass" that the demon sheep loved most and threw it into the sea of ​​sand. Jumped into the sand and grabbed food.

So in the following time, he used all kinds of low-level spiritual herbs and elixir that he harvested in the elixir garden to lure the three "golden blue sheep" all the way deep into the sea of ​​sand.

When he took the three demon sheep deep into the sand sea for a hundred miles, and there was boundless yellow sand in all directions, the three demon sheep were reluctantly driven by him to the Baisha River Oasis.

Herding sheep is not an exhausting task. While driving sheep, Zhou Yang also checked the magic repair storage bags that died under his hands today.

After careful calculation, there were three demon cultivators who were directly killed by him before and after, and the storage bag of the fifth-level demon cultivator who was first attacked by him with the "Destroyer Needle" secret technique also fell to the end. In the hands of the fourth-level foundation-building demon cultivator he killed, he actually got four trophies.

This is the first time that Zhou Yang has obtained a real Moxiu's storage bag. When he erased the imprint of the spiritual consciousness left by Moxiu in the storage bag, and his spiritual consciousness penetrated into the storage bag, his face suddenly became very pale. is ugly.

Among these storage bags, the most filled ones are of course spirit stones, which add up to tens of thousands of pieces, which is more than the sum of the original spirit stones on his body.

But apart from spirit stones, the most common ones are corpses.

The corpses included men and women, old people and children, and they were all sealed in ice coffins.

Through the ice coffin, Zhou Yang could clearly see the expressions of anger, panic, puzzlement, confusion, etc. left on the faces of the corpses. Each of these expressions can almost make people deduce what happened to the owner of the corpse. What is it.

Obviously, the owners of these corpses are all people with spiritual roots. In front of them are either relatives and friends of the four foundation-establishing demon cultivators, or casual cultivators who were deceived and murdered by them.

These demon cultivators brought the corpses of the people they killed with them, of course not as souvenirs, but as "spare food".

The Blood Fiend Demon Sect naturally has a set of secret techniques to preserve the vitality of the corpses. When they are injured, or when they want to refine some magic pills, magic weapons, or simply practice, these corpses are their healing, alchemy, "Materials" for refining and practicing.

During the four foundation-building stage magic cultivators, there were twenty or thirty corpses accumulated in the storage bags. Zhou Yang took out all these corpses, and burned them together with some refined magic pills and magic weapons. The bags were burned together.

In the end, the things he left behind, apart from spirit stones, were magic tools, elixir and materials of some immortal cultivators, as well as jade slips that recorded knowledge.

There are not many materials for the magic tools of these immortal cultivators that can be collected by the four foundation-building demon cultivators, there are only more than ten kinds, but they are all three-level treasures.

Among them, one middle-grade third-grade magical artifact, three lower-grade third-grade magical artifacts, one bottle of unknown third-grade panacea, a set of second-grade top-grade formation "small five elements lost trace formation", and five or six kinds of refining tools, A third-order spirit for alchemy.

In addition to these spiritual artifacts for cultivators, Zhou Yang also kept a third-tier middle-grade magic sword and a third-tier low-grade magic shield. These two magic weapons are made of metal minerals, not monk bones.

Of course, he kept the magic weapon for his adoptive mother Zhou Xuanyu. Although Zhou Xuanyu practiced magic skills, Zhou Yang didn't want her to kill people and practice kung fu like a magic cultivator, using people to refine weapons.

Because of this, he didn't hesitate at all when destroying those magic pills refined with human blood materials.

No matter what Zhou Xuanyu did during the years when she disappeared, the three foundation cultivators of the Zhou family made a decision after they decided to take her in. Even if her cultivation base can no longer increase in the future, she must not be allowed to do any demonic acts again. things.

Regarding this point, Zhou Xuanyu himself had assured the three of them.

Zhou Yang believed that even if it was for his two daughters, this foster mother would never do such stupid things again.

Because there is no shortage of magic weapons in his hands, and the few magic weapons he got are not very good, Zhou Yang didn't spend time on sacrifices, but kept them for sale or threw them in the family treasury to enrich his family heritage.

Then he looked at the seized jade slip.

Although there are dozens of jade slips found in the storage bags of the four magic monks, there are not many related to magic skills and secret techniques, only a few, which is probably because their skills are all learned by Xue Moya. pass on.

Because the secret arts and skills were all passed down by Xue Moya, and they had no contact with other monks of the magic way before, the four of them certainly didn't have many magic skills and secret skills in their hands.

Zhou Yang picked out all those magical secret arts and looked at them, but found another magical secret art that cultivators can use.

This magical secret technique is called "Spirit Extraction". It was originally a vicious sorcery used by demonic monks to extract human souls to refine demons and ghosts.

However, Zhou Yang knew that among the high-level monks, there were not many people who practiced this "spirit drawing technique".

It's not that high-level monks also like to extract human souls to refine devils and ghosts, but that when high-level monks hunt and kill fourth-level monsters, if they practice the "soul extraction technique", they can kill the beasts after the monsters die. The soul is extracted and preserved.

The monks in the Zifu period opened up the Zifu, and their souls appeared and lived in the Zifu, possessing various mysteries.

And after the monster has cultivated to the fourth level, it will directly condense the monster core, awaken the supernatural power of life, and at the same time greatly increase the spiritual wisdom to form the beast soul.

If the immortal cultivator successfully extracts the beast soul, one can use the beast soul to refine a special kind of spiritual talisman "Beast Soul Talisman", and the other can imprison the beast soul in a fourth-order or higher magic weapon to form a "vehicle". soul".

"Beast Soul Talisman" can summon a soul beast with powerful fighting power. "Soul Talisman", which can make the soul beast display 60% of its previous strength.

That is to say, using a "beast soul talisman" refined from a fourth-rank high-grade monster beast soul, at most a soul beast that is stronger than a fourth-rank middle-grade monster can be summoned.

The most rare thing is that this "Beast Soul Talisman" does not have any requirements for the user's cultivation level. A monk in the Qi training period can easily use a "Beast Soul Talisman" refined with a fifth-level monster beast soul. It is the best hole card used by high-level monks to save the lives of younger generations.

As for the "artifact soul", it is even more rare.

If a Tier 4 Magical Artifact possesses an Artifact Soul, its power may not be comparable to that of a Tier 5 Magical Artifact, but it can have more supernatural powers than the Beast Soul had before it was alive, and it can also display the supernatural power of "Travel Soul Transformation" , using the main body of the magic weapon as the demon body, temporarily transforming into a monster to help the master fight.

In the world of cultivating immortals, the normal price of a fourth-tier high-grade magic weapon is about 80,000 to 100,000 spirit stones, but it is not difficult to double the price of a fourth-tier top-grade magic weapon with a "device soul". The rareness of "device soul".

It's just that if you want to refine the beast soul into the magic weapon to form an "artifact soul", it not only tests the skill of the craftsman, but also considers whether the magic weapon and the beast soul are compatible.

Generally speaking, the easiest way to succeed is to use the magic weapon refined from the body of the beast soul before its death, but the success rate will not exceed 30%.

In short, whether it is "Beast Soul Talisman" or "Apparatus Soul", they are very practical and precious things. Although Zhou Yang is not qualified to make these things now, it does not prevent him from preparing for the future.

Therefore, even though the "spirit drawing technique" is a magic secret technique, he still copied it separately and preserved it.

As for those real magical skills and secret techniques, of course he burned them all and completely destroyed them.

After destroying the magic skills and secret techniques in the jade slips, Zhou Yang began to inspect the jade slips that recorded the cultivation skills and secret techniques of immortal cultivators. Seeing this, he immediately brows with joy and said "I made it".

It is indeed earned, and it is a huge profit!

Among those dozens of jade slips, there are as many as seven exercises suitable for cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Period. Excluding four of them that coincide with the exercises collected by the Zhou family, Zhou Yang also got three more exercises that can be practiced to The exercises of the Zifu period.

In addition, in these jade slips, Zhou Yang also discovered a complete set of third-level inheritance of Ling Zhifu, and a complete set of third-level inheritance of animal trainers.

These two sets of inheritance are very complete. Not only are there records of the experience of several third-level lingzhi husbands and third-level animal trainers, but also a variety of spells and secrets that must be learned by lingzhifu and animal trainers. The domestication experience left by the teacher about the domestication of "golden blue sheep".

However, these two sets of inheritance are not the most exciting thing for Zhou Yang. What excites him the most is that in these jade slips, he also found two third-order pill formulas, seven or eight second-tier pill formulas, and many records. It is a handbook of alchemy that describes the alchemy experience and techniques of alchemy.

Although these alchemy recipes and alchemy handbooks are not a complete inheritance of a third-tier alchemist, if Zhou Yang's father, Zhou Xuanhao, can be promoted to a third-tier alchemist, then the Zhou family will truly have a third-tier alchemist. The alchemist passed on.

The importance of alchemists to a cultivating family is unquestionable. If the Zhou family can have their own third-tier alchemists, then the foundation-building monks in the family will not have to ask grandpa and grandma to come to the door to ask for help if they want to buy elixir to assist in their cultivation. , this is so important!

"It's true that people can't get rich without windfall, and horses can't get fat without night grass!"

Zhou Yang looked at the jade slips in his hand that recorded the third-order alchemy formula, and sighed with joy on his face.

Previously, the Zhou family had spent a lot of hard work in order to obtain a third-order pill, and no one was willing to sell the pill even after offering a sky-high price of 5,000 spirit stones.

Those forces who possessed the third-order alchemy formula all held this thing as a treasure, and it was impossible to sell it and share it with others.

If it weren't for this time he took advantage of the chaos to loot a family of cultivators that had been passed down for hundreds of years, beheaded most of the senior members of the family who switched to magic arts, and gained the foundation accumulated by the family of cultivators for hundreds of years, the Zhou family wanted to get three I don't know how many years and how much hard work I will have to wait for the first-level pill formula!

The invasion of magic cultivators is both a crisis and an opportunity.

If the Wang family hadn't fallen into the devil's way, the whole family would have been liquidated by Huang Shamen. How could Zhou Yang dare to take the risk of ransacking his family's Lingshan?

How could he dare to leave swaggeringly after killing a few foundation-building monks of the Wang family, not to be afraid that Huang Shamen would be held accountable afterwards.

He was not so naive as to think that his looting of the Wang family was so flawless that no one would know, but he believed that under the circumstances that he had contributed to the rescue without leaving any obvious evidence, under the current situation, even Xiao Afterwards, Bufan guessed that he looted the Wang family Lingshan, and he would probably acquiesce in his actions. It is impossible to really hold on to this matter and chill the hearts of other monks.

If you have to hand in all the things you get from "eliminating demons and defending the way", then who would dare to risk their lives to respond to Huang Shamen's call to slay demons and eliminate demons?
