Cultivation Begins From The Desert

After leaving the General Affairs Hall, Zhou Yang went straight to the top of Yuquan Peak.

The monk stationed on the top of the mountain is still the seventh grandfather Zhou Yun. The old man sat under the tall [Dragon Scale Tree] on the top of the mountain as always. When he saw Zhou Yang coming up, he forced him to sit down and taste his new herbal tea. .

Zhou Yang naturally couldn't refuse the invitation from the elders so warmly, not to mention that he really liked the herbal tea made by the elders.

But this time when drinking tea with the old man, his eyes were mostly on the [Dragon Scale Tree] beside him.

[Dragon scale tree] is a very rare and special spiritual wood, named for the scales that resemble dragon scales growing on the tree.

The hundred-year-old [Dragon Scale Tree] grows black scales, as hard as fine iron, and can be refined into a first-order defensive magic weapon. It is a first-order spiritual wood.

[Dragon Scale Tree] that is more than five hundred years old, the tree scales will turn into silver-gray, harder than black iron, and can be refined into second-level defensive magic tools, it is a second-level spiritual wood.

If the [Dragon Scale Tree] can grow for more than a thousand years, the tree scales will turn silver, and then the tree scales can be used to refine a third-tier defensive magic weapon, which is a third-tier spiritual wood.

It is said that once the [Dragon Scale Tree] is more than five thousand years old, the tree scales will turn golden like real dragon scales, which can be used to refine fifth-order defensive magic weapons. Looted treasure.

The [Dragon Scale Tree] of the Zhou family is about 800 years old, and it is not far from becoming a third-order spiritual tree. When Zhou Yuquan, the ancestor of the Zhou family, discovered Yuquan Peak, this spiritual tree grew on the mountain.

After that, about every ten years or so, the Zhou family would take a few pieces of tree scales from the [Dragon Scale Tree] to refine them into magic weapons. The main material of Zhou Yang's [Silver Gang Shield] magic weapon was a piece of A tree scale removed from a tree.

Although Zhou Yang knew the origin of this tree in the past, he had seen many kinds of centuries-old and thousand-year-old giant trees on the mountain. He didn't have much feeling for this spirit tree that looked like a pine tree.

In his eyes at that time, the value of this second-order spiritual tree was far inferior to the several second-order spiritual fruit trees "Huojing jujube trees" in the spiritual orchard on the mountain.

At least the "Huojing jujube tree" can bear fruit every five years. For a monk below the late stage of Qi training who practices masculinity like this, the benefit gained from eating a jujube is worth ten days of hard work, let alone The taste of jujube is also great, far surpassing any fruit he has eaten in his previous life.

But now after becoming a craftsman, the value of [Dragonscale Tree] in Zhou Yang's eyes has risen instantly.

"Hehehe, Xiaojiu, you also want to make an idea of ​​this [Dragon Scale Tree]? It's not that the old man looks down on you. Although you are already a second-level craftsman, the scales of this [Dragon Scale Tree] are not yet available." You use it, each of these tree scales falls into the hands of the old patriarch, it is a second-order high-grade magic weapon, no matter how much his old man values ​​you, he will not let you waste this kind of treasure until you become a second-order It's almost the same as a top-rank refiner!"

Seeing Zhou Yang's eyes always looking at [Dragon Scale Tree], old man Zhou Yun didn't know what he was thinking, so he just laughed and hit him with unceremonious words.

For the elderly, it is also a very fulfilling thing to see such an outstanding junior like Zhou Yang suffer.

It's just that the smile on the old man's face had just bloomed for a few seconds before he was shocked by Zhou Yang's next words.

"What Grandpa Qi said is that with the current strength of the nephew's grand-nephew as a second-rank middle-grade craftsman, it is indeed not enough to use the scales of the [Dragon Scale Tree] to refine weapons. Like this kind of treasure, it is better to wait for the grand-nephew to master the craft of refining in the future. When it is promoted to the second-level high-grade, it is not too late to start refining with enough confidence."

"What? Your refining technique has broken through to the second-tier middle class!"

The old man Zhou Yun looked at Zhou Yang in shock, his voice was a little out of tune.

Didn't it mean that this kid only became a second-tier low-grade refiner last year?

How come it's only been a year, and you've become a second-tier middle-grade craftsman again?

Could it be that the old patriarch quietly went down the mountain to give him extra lessons?

The old man looked at the young junior in front of him in shock, feeling that his brain was not enough.

Could it be that in addition to being a genius in cultivation, this young junior also has an even more talented talent for refining weapons?

Otherwise, why did he change from a layman who didn't know anything to a second-tier middle-grade craftsman in less than five years?

If he remembers correctly, even the old patriarch, the third-rank high-grade craftsman with the most talented crafting talent in the history of the clan, spent a lot of time from learning how to refine weapons to becoming a second-rank middle-rank craftsman. Twelve years!

"Seventh Grandpa? Seventh Grandpa?"

Zhou Yang looked at the old man Zhou Yun who was stunned by the news revealed in his words, and it would be a lie to say that he was not satisfied.

After all, a 22-year-old second-tier middle-grade craftsman is indeed something to brag about, not to mention the Zhou family, which has a family history of only two hundred years and a foundation-building family that has inherited more than two thousand pieces in the sect. In the Huangshamen in 2010, this speed is enough to rank among the top few in history.

Even he himself never thought that his talent for refining weapons would be so good.

When he was a first-level craftsman, he didn't show any abnormalities, but after he was promoted to a second-level craftsman, he needed to use several materials to mix and refine magic weapons, and he found that he was in the most critical metal. It has an excellent ability to control the amount of solution and control the temperature of the fire.

After comparing the deeds of other refiners recorded in those refiner books, and the refiner notes given by the old patriarch, he found that his talent in this area was several times stronger than most refiners of the same level .

If it wasn't for his poor cultivation and lack of materials for refining a second-tier high-grade magic weapon, he felt that he could try to refine a second-level top-grade magic weapon now.

"Is Xiao Jiu here? Come quickly to the cave, the old man happens to have something to tell you."

The greeting from the old patriarch Zhou Minghan was a timely relief for the somewhat embarrassed old man Zhou Yun. The old man's face relaxed because of being too shocked, and he said with a relaxed face: "Xiao Jiu, did you hear that?" The old patriarch is calling you, hurry up and don’t let him wait for you.”

If you don't tell the truth, you are still a good grandson.

Of course Zhou Yang would not really embarrass the old man just because of his temper, so he suppressed a smile and bowed to the old man to say goodbye, and walked briskly towards the cave of the old patriarch Zhou Minghan.

"Hey, old, old, I can't keep up with the pace of young people!"

Under the [Dragon Scale Tree], the old man looked at Zhou Yang's leaving back and couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.

However, the sigh only lasted for a few seconds, and the expression on the old man's face changed, and he became flushed in an instant, and he laughed loudly with bright eyes: "Hahaha, the young people nowadays are really amazing, twenty A two-year-old second-tier middle-grade craftsman, tsk tsk tsk, I never thought that my old man would still see such a genius in my Zhou family in his lifetime, God bless my Zhou family, God bless the Zhou family!"

For an old man like Zhou Yun who has worked hard for the family all his life, there is probably nothing that makes him happier than seeing an outstanding junior in the family.

Those big families with Jindan stage ancestors or even Nascent Soul stage great monks who have been in charge for hundreds of thousands of years may have infighting due to things such as disputes between sons and concubines and resource allocation issues.

But for a small family like the Zhou family, which has only been passed down for five or six generations, with a family history of less than three hundred years, and only one monk in the foundation building period to support the facade, the only way to unite and unite is to unite everyone's strength in one place. The only right way is to concentrate all resources to cultivate talented children with foundation building qualifications in a small number of families.

Think about it, under the circumstances that buying a "Building Foundation Pill" will exhaust the savings of the whole family, if the family fights and divides into factions, then the final result will definitely be that no one can build the foundation, which will eventually lead to the collapse of the entire family. Inheritance is cut off.

Immortal cultivators have a lifespan far exceeding that of ordinary people, and their wisdom far exceeds that of ordinary people, so of course they would not make such stupid mistakes.

In such a big environment, even if someone is greedy for profit and wants to harm the public and private interests, once they are discovered, they will definitely be attacked by other groups of people to rectify the family rules.

Therefore, seeing Zhou Yang as an outstanding junior, even if he is not a direct descendant of his own, the seniors of the Zhou family like Zhou Yun are all very relieved and happy from the bottom of their hearts.

The stronger the family, the better off their descendants will be, the more cultivation resources they will obtain in the future, and the greater the possibility of building foundations. The reason is as simple as that.

On the other side, after Zhou Yang entered the cave on the top of the mountain and saw the old patriarch Zhou Minghan again, he was taken directly to his refining room by the old patriarch before he could salute.

"The old man heard what you said just now. Now you refine a second-order middle-grade magic weapon and show it to the old man. Tell the old man what materials you want. The old man will open the supply for you!"

The old patriarch Zhou Minghan is worthy of being the head of the clan, and he speaks with confidence. In his eyes, the second-level spiritual things that monks in the ordinary qi training period fight over are like Chinese cabbage, which can be freely supplied.

What else can Zhou Yang say?

Of course, just roll up your sleeves and get right to work.

In this way, after wasting three materials in a row, during the fourth refining, he successfully refined a second-order middle-grade magic weapon, the flying sword.

"Not bad, your refining skills have really improved a lot. Even if this flying sword is placed in those shops in the market, it is up to the standard. It seems that your talent for refining is much higher than the old man originally expected. .”

After the old patriarch inspected Zhou Yangxin's magic weapon, the flying sword, he, who had always been serious in front of the younger generations of other families, couldn't help showing a hearty smile this time.

The old man is in a happy mood, so he will naturally reward him. He stretched out his hand and said to Zhou Yang with a smile: "Now you come to see the old man forging weapons, and take the [gold-eating mouse] mouse skin and mouse skin you got back then." Take out the tooth and give it to the old man, this time the old man will refine two second-level high-grade magic weapons for you for free, one for attack and one for defense, which can be considered as a reward for you to become a second-level craftsman."
