Cultivation Begins From The Desert

"Father, this is a gift from Ying'er to you. It records her master's lifelong experience in alchemy, as well as five third-order alchemy recipes."

In Zhou Minghan's cave, after Zhou Yang and the old patriarch Zhou Minghan finished talking about the family affairs, they took out a jade slip and handed it to his father Zhou Xuanhao.

Master Xiao Ying was a top-ranked third-rank alchemist during his lifetime. He had made countless alchemy in his life, had a lot of experience in alchemy, and also mastered five third-rank alchemy formulas.

Now that Xiao Ying gave these as gifts to Zhou Xuanhao, father-in-law, it was not insignificant to Zhou Xuanhao.

"Is this...is this appropriate?"

Zhou Xuanhao looked at the jade slip in Zhou Yang's hand, needless to say he was pleasantly surprised, but he was also worried and did not dare to reach out to take it.

It is almost impossible for the monks in the family to give away the inheritance, and it is strictly prohibited.

So even though it was a gift from his daughter-in-law to his father-in-law, Zhou Xuanhao was a little afraid to accept this great gift for a while.

"Don't worry, father, Ying'er was the only apprentice of her master before she was alive, and now this thing is also handled by her."

Zhou Yang knew what Zhou Xuanhao was worried about, so he quickly expressed his worries with a smile.

Hearing what he said, Zhou Xuanhao immediately took the jade slip overjoyed, and then smiled kindly at Xiao Ying: "Yinger, you have the audacity to accept this great gift for your father. I don’t have anything good to give you, so I can only promise you that even if I become a third-rank alchemist in the future, my Zhou family’s future alchemy resources will still be based on you first, and I will never compete with you for a point as my father!”

A family, even the Zifu family, has limited resources in all aspects of cultivating immortals, and they must be given priority to monks with higher skills.

If Zhou Xuanhao was promoted to a third-tier alchemist, although it would be a great thing for the Zhou family, but with the size of the Zhou family, it is impossible to support the growth of two third-tier alchemists at the same time, so there must be someone So make a concession.

Zhou Xuanhao originally made the decision to give in when he learned that Xiao Ying was a third-rank alchemist. After all, Xiao Ying was much younger than him. From this point of view alone, cultivating Xiao Ying is far more important than cultivating him. cost-effective.

Now that he has received such a big gift from Xiao Ying, he has no reason to compete with Xiao Ying.

However, when Xiao Ying heard what he said, she shook her head anxiously and said: "No, no, father, you misunderstood, my daughter-in-law definitely has no intention of this!"

"I know, this is just my promise to you, and it is also the most suitable approach for the Zhou family. I am already old, and if I can be promoted to the third-rank alchemist in this life, I have fulfilled my lifelong wish, and I will die without regret! "

Zhou Xuanhao waved his hands, sighed and expressed his true thoughts.

Then he held the jade slip in his hand tightly, turned his head to Zhou Minghan and Zhou Yang and said, "Old patriarch, Yang'er, I'll go back to retreat to heal my wounds first, and I won't attend the family meeting. Whatever decision you make, I will I support you unconditionally!"

After speaking, he hurriedly left the cave with the healing elixir, and went back to retreat to heal his injuries.

Seeing this, Zhou Minghan couldn't help nodding his head and said: "Xuan Hao is a generalist and understands things. I see that he has such a state of mind. There must be no problem in being promoted to the third-level alchemist!"

"I also believe that my father will be able to succeed."

Zhou Yang nodded, also very confident in his father.

Then he had a flash of inspiration, but he took out the third-rank top-grade spiritual fruit "Qinghua Biyue Fruit" that he had picked at the beginning.

"Great-grandfather, my grandson picked two [Qionghua Biyue Fruit] back then. This spiritual fruit is a gift from my grandson. If you can take this spiritual fruit, then take the next [Fire Dragon Pill] ], it shouldn’t be a problem to advance to the ninth floor of Foundation Establishment within a few years.”

This "Qinghua Jade Moon Fruit", when Zhou Yang picked it up, he had already decided to give it to the old patriarch Zhou Minghan. Otherwise, it was precious enough to be auctioned at the auction meeting.

Including the third-order high-grade panacea "Huo Jiao Pill", which he bought only for monks in the late stage of foundation establishment, it was also bought by Zhou Minghan.

The "Fire Flood Dragon Pill" is said to be refined from the blood of the fifth-order spirit beast "Red Fire Flood Dragon" raised in the Xuanyang Immortal Sect as the main material. Pain like the body, but it can also greatly enhance the mana cultivation of the monks in the late stage of the fire system.

"This, this thing is too expensive, let's save it for Ying'er to use in the future, the old man's lifespan is running out, even if he takes this thing to advance to the ninth floor of foundation building ten or twenty years in advance, it will have no effect!"

After Zhou Minghan stared at the green spiritual fruit in Zhou Yang's hand for a few moments, he hurriedly shook his head and waved his hands, unwilling to take it. transformed person.

"Great-grandfather, what are you talking about? Not to mention that Ying'er is a top-grade spiritual root, and there is no problem at all in cultivating to the ninth floor of the foundation building. It is that you have worked hard for the Zhou family all your life, and the credits will be counted together." , this spiritual fruit should also be taken by you!"

"And don't forget, that undeveloped oasis is still waiting for us to occupy and develop it. If you break through to the ninth floor of the foundation building earlier, we can go there and occupy that oasis earlier!"

Zhou Yang almost stuffed the fruit into Zhou Minghan's hands forcefully. At the same time, Zhou Minghan couldn't find any faults with the reasons he said.

Now Zhou Minghan didn't say anything more, and silently took the spiritual fruit and put it away.

"Since this is the case, the old man Lingguo has accepted it. Now the old man will go to the Baisha River Oasis in person to inform all the families of the news of your return, and then release the news about Xuanqing Pill. After the old man comes back, we will hold a meeting Family meeting."

Immediately, Zhou Minghan left the cave and flew straight to the Baisha River Oasis with his sword flying.

At this time, Zhou Yang also took Xiao Ying out of the cave, introduced her to the Qi training period members of the Zhou family, and then went to worship in front of his mother's grave. The couple respectfully kowtowed a few times in front of the grave.

Most of the people in the Zhou family were happy to support the fact that the patriarch brought back a beautiful foundation-building Taoist companion after more than ten years of absence.

The idea of ​​these people is very simple. The patriarch Taoist is a monk in the foundation period, which means that the family has an extra person to suppress the family movement without paying any price, which means that the family's strength has risen to a higher level.

With the strength of the family, these monks in the qi training period will have a better life in the future, so they are naturally happy.

After careful calculation, if Zhou Yuanchen, Zhou Xuanyu, and Gryphon from Huangshamen are also counted, the Zhou family's foundation-building strength now has as many as seven.

Among them, Zhou Yang's combat power is stronger than ordinary ninth-level foundation-building monks, and the Gryphon's combat power is equivalent to that of a nine-level foundation-building monk. It is the nine-story monk who established the foundation of the Eight Classics.

This kind of lineup, searched the entire Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation World, and couldn't find a foundation-building family that could compare with it.

Under such circumstances, many well-informed Zhou family monks know that the next ten or twenty years must be a period of high-speed take-off for the Zhou family.

It is no longer possible for the small Yuquan Lake Oasis and Haoyang Mountain Oasis to accommodate so many foundation cultivators. The Zhou family is bound to leave the Yuquan Lake Oasis and open up a new family branch!

And when Zhou Yang brought Xiao Ying and the Zhou family members to know each other and accept their blessings, he was also using this face-to-face contact to understand the changes in family members, collect family intelligence information, and prepare for the next family meeting .

Through this kind of face-to-face contact and talking with the clansmen, Zhou Yang learned that although the Zhou family passed away three qi-training ninth-level elders successively in the past ten years, and several others did not live long.

But the remaining "Xuan" monks benefited from the development of the Zhou family over the years. Except for the youngest seventeenth uncle Zhou Xuanzhao, all of them have been promoted to the ninth level of Qi training and become the new family elders.

So now there are still seven elders in the ninth floor of the Zhou family's Qi training.

Moreover, in the more than ten years since Zhou Yang left, the management system formulated in the last family meeting has basically been established. Relevant stewards have been appointed to manage the resource points.

These stewards cover the monks of the "Xuan" generation, the "Yuan" generation, and the "Guang" generation. They may have different cultivation bases, but they are by far the most suitable among all the Zhou family monks. The person in charge of the position.

"Patriarch, in the past ten years, the number of mortals in the family has also increased by several tenths. The Yuquan Lake Oasis is no longer able to support so many mortals. Please pay attention to this issue when you hold a family meeting this time, otherwise the longer it drags on, the more troubles will follow. so big!"

On Yuquan Peak, when Zhou Yang was talking with Zhou Xuankun, the elder of the Zhou family who was in charge of personnel affairs, the 116-year-old white-haired old man worriedly told him bad news.

The number of mortals in the Zhou family had been deliberately controlled by the immortal cultivators before to a fixed value. Otherwise, after more than two hundred years, how could there be only a few hundred thousand mortals.

It's just that in recent years, as the strength of the Zhou family has greatly increased, and some mortals have been diverted from the spiritual veins of Haoyang Mountain, the Zhou family has slightly relaxed its control over the number of mortals.

However, no one expected that the mortal group of the Zhou family, whose ability to reproduce had been suppressed by various means for a long time, would increase by more than half in just a dozen years because of this relaxation!

Most of these mortals are people of the same race and the same sex with the same bloodline as the monks of the Zhou family. Everyone was an ancestor more than two hundred years ago. Root's baby to strangle, right?

So now the Yuquan Lake Oasis is almost unable to support the surge in the number of mortals!

There was a mistake in the last chapter, the ones who passed away should be the second uncle, fifth uncle, and eighth aunt. I have edited it. In addition, I spent a lot of time today to sort out the outline and update the list of family members. In two days, I will open a pinned post in the book review area and post it.
