Cultivation Begins From The Desert

Immortal cultivators do not have as many customs as ordinary people. Even for a cultivating family like the Zhou family, when the great elder Zhou Qian passed away, all the monks from the family on the Yuquan Lake Oasis were called to the ancestral hall to guard the spirit for three days, and then the old patriarch Zhou Minghan personally cremated the body of old man Zhou Qian with the real foundation fire, and buried the ashes in the family cemetery.

Cremation of the corpses of the family monks after death is the helplessness of the Xiao Xiuxian family.

Because the Xiao Xiuxian family does not have enough power to guard the family cemetery, and cannot prevent those demon cultivators who have practiced the magic method of refining corpses from stealing the corpses of the family ancestors and refining them into zombies.

Once the corpses of the ancestors of the family are turned into zombies by demon cultivation, it is not only a great desecration of the corpses of the ancestors, but also the lives of the family monks and mortals under the family rule.

This is because the newly refined zombies need a lot of blood for their growth, and it would be better to feed the zombies with people of the same bloodline as the zombies.

Therefore, if someone from a minor cultivator's family like the Zhou family passed away, their body would be cremated and buried to avoid being used by the demon cultivators.

Only big sects and big families like the Huang Shamen, who have Jindan Patriarchs or even Nascent Soul stage monks, will bury their bodies in the cemetery after the high-ranking monks of their sect or family die. The magic circle and special personnel will take care of it.

After dealing with the funeral of the Great Elder Zhou Qian, Zhou Yang was summoned by the old patriarch Zhou Minghan to enter the mountaintop cave for questioning alone.

"You also know the reason of your grandfather's death. The family is about to mobilize manpower to wipe out the monsters on the red flame iron vein. You have just broken through to the seventh level of Qi training, and you are the hope of our Zhou family's future foundation building, old man I can decide to let you not participate in this matter, what do you want?"

"Please, great-grandfather, please don't do that!"

Zhou Yang's complexion changed, and he bowed deeply to the old patriarch, then raised his head and said loudly: "The red flame iron vein was discovered by my grandson, and I will give my grandson a share of dividends in the future. How do you convince other clansmen that you can sit back and reap the rewards without participating in the war? How can you reflect the fairness and justice of the family rules?"

"Although the grandson is not talented, he is willing to use what he has learned all his life to contribute a small amount to the expansion of our Zhou family's territory!"

At the end, Zhou Yang couldn't help but took out an [Armor-piercing Dagger] magic weapon from his waist and held it in his hand, as if to prove his determination.

Seeing his impassioned appearance, the old patriarch Zhou Minghan felt relieved and amused at the same time.

"Okay, okay, the old man knows your determination, put away the magic weapon first, and you will be counted as your head when the time comes!"

The old man smiled and waved his hands, and he really appreciated Zhou Yang's courage to use a knife in front of him.

No matter what the reason is, it is a kind of great courage for a monk in the Qi training period to dare to use a knife in front of a monk in the foundation establishment period.

Moreover, this incident also proved Zhou Yang's loyalty to the Zhou family. If he didn't really agree with the family, how could he say such impassioned words just now? And why can't he help but draw his sword in front of the patriarch of the foundation-building period family?

It's not in vain to hurt this kid!

The old man sighed with relief in his heart, and his complexion softened a lot. He looked at Zhou Yang with the same kindness as he looked at his own grandson.

"Since you have this determination, Xiaojiu, I will tell you the truth again. After about ten years, no more than fifteen years at most, the ancestors of the Chen family in Jinshafang City will organize people to plan the refining of the Foundation Establishment Pill. The matter, our Zhou family and the Chen family are in an alliance, so as long as a monk of the Foundation Establishment Stage participates in this matter, he will be able to get the bidding right for the Foundation Establishment Pill."

"Once the family obtains the Foundation Establishment Pill in the auction, people will definitely take it immediately, so Xiaojiu, you must work hard to cultivate to the ninth level of Qi training in the next ten years, otherwise this opportunity will be missed in vain. !"

The old patriarch looked at Zhou Yang lovingly, and slowly revealed this secret matter in a dignified tone, which was enough to shock the entire Zhou family monks.

After listening to the old patriarch's words, Zhou Yang's pupils shrank suddenly, and his breathing became heavy in an instant.

That's "Building Foundation Pill"!

Over the years of practicing, Zhou Yang has never been particularly tempted by a certain spiritual object, but only the spiritual object "Building Foundation Pill" is something he is particularly concerned about and determined to obtain.

In terms of grade, "Building Foundation Pill" is only a third-rank low-grade panacea, but its appeal to the majority of monks in the Qi training period is incomparable to fifth-rank pills.

"Building Foundation Pill" is rare, this is a well-known fact.

To refine a furnace of "Building Foundation Pill", not only the rare fourth-order elixir [Ning Yuanguo] or a fourth-order monster pill, but also thirty-six kinds of extremely rare third-order elixir are needed as the main medicine. Auxiliary drugs, the combined value of these elixir is greater than the value of the elixir needed to refine a batch of fourth-order panacea.

Even the sect like Huang Shamen, which has been passed down for thousands of years and has the ancestor of Jindan, can only refine a batch of "Building Foundation Pill" every ten years, and the number of pills released each time is only five to seven. pieces.

With such a small number, there are not enough people in Huang Shamen's own sect, let alone a small cultivator family like the Zhou family attached to Huang Shamen.

Therefore, if a small Xiuxian family like the Zhou family wants to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill, they must either exchange a main medicine for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill, or cooperate with other Xiuxian families to refine alchemy.

The old patriarch Zhou Minghan mentioned the Chen family, which Zhou Yang had heard of since he was a child. The Chen family was a cultivating family that had been passed down for more than 700 years. Grade alchemist.

As a monk who was not born in a sect, even if the ancestor of the Chen family was a master of the Zifu period, it was impossible for him to obtain the "Building Foundation Pill" from the Huang Shamen for the younger generations of the family to take.

Therefore, after the ancestors of the Chen family advanced to the purple mansion stage, they will organize a "foundation conference" every 30 to 50 years. At that time, the invited Xiuxian family or scattered foundation builders, as long as they are willing to send people to join the Chen family Zu Yiyi teamed up to hunt the fourth-level monsters in the boundless sand sea to obtain the fourth-level demon pills. After refining them into "Building Foundation Pills", they could obtain the right to bid and purchase "Building Foundation Pills".

That's how the "Building Foundation Pill" purchased by the Zhou family more than 60 years ago came about.

At that time, in order to buy the "Building Foundation Pill", not only emptied the Zhou family's savings, but also let the Zhou family's second foundation cultivator after Zhou Yuquan's ancestor Zhou Jian, who was of the "Hua" generation, be seriously injured. The yuan was greatly reduced, and the life expectancy was less than two hundred years old.

And that ancestor Zhou Jian was the grandfather of Zhou Qian, the great elder of the Zhou family who passed away a few days ago.

Now that the old patriarch Zhou Minghan learned that the Zhou family was going to participate in the "Foundation Establishment Conference", Zhou Yang was excited, but at the same time, he couldn't help showing a hint of worry.

He was not worried about the fact that he only had more than ten years to prepare, but was worried about the old patriarch Zhou Minghan's participation in the "Foundation Establishment Conference".

Although the old patriarch Zhou Minghan is already a late-stage foundation-builder of the seventh-floor foundation-builder and a third-tier high-grade craftsman, but when faced with a fourth-tier monster whose strength is equivalent to that of a purple mansion monk, this strength is not enough. It's not enough to see at all, as long as the fourth-order monster beast hits with all its strength, it can make the old patriarch fall.

As the only surviving monk of the Zhou family in the Foundation Establishment period, once the old patriarch Zhou Minghan was seriously injured or fell, it would be a terrible news for the entire Zhou family, and it might lead to the demise of the Zhou family.

At that time, even if Zhou Yang successfully obtained the Foundation Establishment Pill, he would not be able to feel at ease for the rest of his life.

Therefore, he thought and thought, and finally couldn't help asking: "Great-grandfather, my grandson once heard that you can reach Liuyun Continent by crossing the sandy sea forty thousand miles in the east and crossing the Duanyun Mountains high into the clouds." In the world of cultivating immortals, there are abundant resources for cultivating immortals. Even foundation building pills can be bought in the market with spirit stones. Why don’t we go there to buy foundation building pills? We insist that foundation building monks like you take risks to hunt down fourth-order monsters beast?"

About Liuyunzhou's world of cultivating immortals, Zhou Yang accidentally learned from the notes of a craftsman when he was reading those classics of craftsmanship in the past few years.

Later, he asked old man Zhou Quan, but even old man Zhou Quan, who had lived for more than a hundred years, only knew the place name of Liuyunzhou Cultivation World, and he didn't know much about the specific situation.

Originally, when he returned to the family this time, he also wanted to ask the old patriarch Zhou Minghan about this matter, but unfortunately he went into seclusion after returning, but he forgot about it for the time being. Think of it.

And the situation was just as he expected, as a monk and the head of the clan during the foundation establishment period, the old patriarch Zhou Minghan really knew a lot about the world of cultivating immortals in Liuyunzhou.

"It's rare that Xiao Jiu also knows about the world of cultivating immortals in Liuyunzhou. Unfortunately, you only know the prosperity of the world of cultivating immortals in Liuyunzhou, but you don't know how many dangerous places you have to go through from us to the world of cultivating immortals in Liuyunzhou!"

"Not to mention how many powerful monsters and sand bandits are hidden in the 40,000-mile sand sea, even in the Duanyun Mountain Range, various monsters of the third and fourth ranks are not uncommon. The sixth-order monster of the Nascent Soul cultivator lives in seclusion!"

"Crossing the Duanyun Mountain Range without the cultivation base of the Zifu period, it is a gamble on whether you will be discovered by monsters and become the rations of monsters!"

"Finally, even if you were lucky enough to cross the Duanyun Mountains and arrive at the Immortal Cultivation Realm of Liuyunzhou, and bought the Foundation Establishment Pill, do you think that a foreign Foundation Establishment cultivator with this treasure can safely return to the Far West? "

Zhou Yang was speechless for a moment.

Everyone is innocent, but pregnant is guilty!

The old patriarch was right, the spiritual item "Building Foundation Pill" is too precious, so precious that even if a monk in the Foundation Establishment period carries it on his body, it will easily lead to a fatal disaster.

If a small family like the Zhou family obtains this kind of treasure, they usually let the ninth-level Qi training monks in the family take it immediately, otherwise the news will be known to outsiders, and it may cause the family to be wiped out.

That's why the old patriarch told him before that before the "Foundation Establishment Conference" more than ten years later, he must cultivate to the ninth level of Qi training, otherwise the family will get the "Building Foundation Pill" by then, and he will definitely It is not his share.

"Grandson understands. Please rest assured, great-grandfather, grandson will definitely reach the ninth level of Qi training before the [Foundation Establishment Conference], and the efforts of you and your family will not be in vain!"

He pursed his lips and watched the old patriarch issue the military order with firm eyes.
