Cultivation Begins From The Desert

After the news of Gao's family being exterminated spread out, it really caused an uproar in the world of cultivating immortals in Baisha River just as Zhou Yang thought.

Except for the last chaos, the Baishahe Immortal Cultivation Realm has not had a foundation-building family destroyed by casual cultivators for one or two hundred years.

A majestic foundation-building family was single-handedly slaughtered by a casual cultivator to slaughter all the high-ranking members of the family. This incident is not only a shame for the various cultivating families, but also makes them very nervous.

Of these cultivating families that have been passed down for hundreds of years, who hasn't done some dark and shameful things for so many years?

Even the Zhou family must have done such a thing!

The Gao family was wiped out, although there was a reason why the Zhou family was behind the scenes, but more importantly, they were not secretive, and they were caught by Zhou Minghan.

So at this time, while the various families were nervous, they also conducted a major internal review to see if the dirty things of their own families over the years were similarly caught by others? Have you provoked potential enemies that you can't provoke!

As for avenging the Gao family, and going through the entire Baishahe oasis to cultivate immortals, only the ancestor of the Chen family couldn't save face, saying that if he saw Zhong Ziming appearing in the Baishahe oasis, he would take his life to pay homage to the dozens of members of the Gao family who died tragically. people.

Then there is no more text.

In the world of cultivating immortals, avenging a friend is a just thing worthy of commendation. Zhong Ziming killed dozens of members of the Gao family. The ancestors of the Chen family can use him as an excuse to kill innocent people, but they must not accuse him of doing something wrong. .

This is a matter of principle.

And the attitude of the ancestors of the Chen family to cherish their feathers obviously made some families who originally intended to fall to the Chen family feel very disappointed.

Different standpoints lead to different ways of looking at issues.

In the eyes of the Chen family, although the Zhou family already had the strength to threaten the status of the Chen family, if they really wanted to wrestle with the Chen family, it would be a joke.

Even if they don't have the help of any family, they still have the strength to easily suppress the Zhou family. Of course, they don't want to ruin their reputation for the sake of a Gao family, making the Chen family lose credibility in the eyes of many casual cultivators.

At most, it is to keep this account on the Zhou family.

But in the eyes of those families who intend to help the Chen family to suppress the Zhou family, the Chen family is not even willing to go all out to protect the Gao family who was the first to join in the past. How can they guarantee that they will fall to the Chen family camp and face the attack of the Zhou family? , the Chen family will definitely help them?

Although they wanted to follow the Chen family and share the body of the fallen Zhou family, they were even more afraid of becoming the next Gao family.

So after the Gao family was wiped out, the Zhou family's effect of "killing chickens to scare monkeys" was indeed achieved.

Before the matter became clear, before the Chen family and the Zhou family really broke their faces, no other family would dare to stand in line with the Chen family like the Gao family. .

Zhou Yang didn't care if anyone sided with the Zhou family, as long as no one sided with the Chen family, it would be a victory for the Zhou family.

He was happy about it for a long time.

And after the Gao family's extermination, the Zhou family seemed to be turning around. Not long after that, Zhou Yang received two more good news.

The first good news is that Zhou Yuanpeng, a monk of the "Yuan" generation from the Zhou family who went out to practice, discovered a food crop that can be planted on sandy soil in a mortal village on the small oasis when he traveled to a small oasis. "White sand taro".

This "white sand taro" can also be planted on the bordering sandy land between the oasis and the desert. Its ground part is short like the common desert plant "aloe vera", and its underground part is an edible massive rhizome.

Zhou Yang also tasted this product, and found that although the taste is a bit bland and astringent, the nutritional value is not bad, and it can be grown and eaten as miscellaneous grains.

The area of ​​the Yuquan Lake Oasis is actually not small. The reason why it is difficult to feed 200,000 people is that there is very little arable land that can grow food crops. The shrubs and grasslands can only be used for light grazing, providing essential meat for the mortals on the oasis.

Now with this kind of "white sand taro", food crops can be planted on those sandy soils, and this alone can at least feed tens of thousands of ordinary people.

Therefore, after Zhou Yang investigated and verified the production of "White Sand Taro", he directly rewarded Zhou Yuanpeng who discovered "White Sand Taro" with 1000 special contribution points on behalf of his family.

The reason why there are only so many is because "white sand taro" can be planted on sandy soil, but it cannot be planted intensively, because it needs a lot of water if it wants to grow quickly, and water shortage is always the problem of all desert oases. the problem we are facing.

The second piece of good news is that after Xiao Ying followed Zhou Yang's instructions to hybridize the main grain crops of Zhou family mortals, she finally bred a hybrid crop with a yield 20% higher than the original grain crops.

The cultivation of this hybrid crop not only truly alleviated the food crisis faced by ordinary people in the Zhou family, but also allowed Xiao Ying to find the inspiration to be promoted to the third-rank Lingzhi husband, which can be said to be a double win with one stone.

As the head of the Zhou family, Zhou Yang also rewarded Xiao Ying with 1000 family special contribution points according to the rules set before.

Zhou Yuanpeng and Xiao Ying set an example successively. Those monks in the Qi training period of the Zhou family were all inspired to go out for adventure. Every month, some people could not restrain their restlessness and submitted an application to the family to go out for adventure and travel. .

Zhou Yang is naturally happy to see this kind of thing come to fruition, and even promulgated a new decree, as long as the family members are willing to go out to experience adventures, he will use his personal savings to give a second-level top-grade magic talisman for self-defense for free, only for the first time out experience.

A second-order high-grade spirit talisman is worth thirty or forty spirit stones, which is nothing to Zhou Yang now, but to those Zhou family monks who are in their twenties and thirty years old and whose cultivation base is only in the middle and late stages of Qi training, it is almost worthless. It's almost time to catch up with their one-year welfare offering.

If Zhou Yang didn't give away one for free, some fledgling Zhou family monks might not be able to afford or be willing to exchange for this consumable treasure after exchanging for the self-defense magic weapon.

Time passed slowly, and two or three years passed in a blink of an eye.

Zhou Minghan's injury finally returned to normal after two or three years of recuperation, and Zhou Guangxiang had already completed the transfer of exercises.

In addition, after several years of practice, Xiao Ying's cultivation base has also been promoted to the third floor of the foundation building.

At this time, Zhou Yang used the excuse of celebrating Zhou Guangxiang's success in building the foundation, and summoned all the Zhou family's traveling and dispatched monks back to Yuquan Peak.

"Patriarch, the monks of the Zhou family who are traveling now, except for the two who did not return on time, the rest have all returned to the family."

On Yuquan Peak, Zhou Xuanhe, the new elder of the Zhou family, respectfully reported the current personnel movements of the Zhou family to Zhou Yang.

At this time, five or six years had passed since Zhou Yang returned from the world of cultivating immortals in Liuyunzhou. The older elders of the Zhou family, such as Zhou Xuankun, Zhou Xuanchen, Zhou Xuanying, and Chen Ting, all died one after another after their longevity.

So now there are only five elders on the ninth floor of the Zhou family's qi training, including Han Yushu and Tan Qiu, two relative elders, not as many as the foundation-building monks.

But this is only temporary, because several monks of the younger generation of the Zhou family have already reached the eighth level of Qi training and the seventh level of Qi training. It is not a problem for the number of elders to exceed ten.

"For those who didn't come back, record their names. If they come back later, each of them will be fined for five years. If they don't come back, forget it!"

Zhou Yang pondered for a moment, then said his decision in a cold voice.

Being late wasn't a big deal, but Zhou family monks were told to return to the Zhou family a month before going out for training.

It has been more than a month and they haven't come back. No matter what the reasons are for those two people, they are ignoring the family law and must be punished.

After dealing with this trivial matter, Zhou Yang and Zhou Xuanhe rushed to the outside of the Zhou Family Ancestor's Temple.

At this time, outside the ancestral temple of the Zhou family, more than a hundred Zhou family monks, big and small, have all gathered here, even some children with spiritual roots who have just learned to walk.

When Zhou Yang came over, all the monks bowed and saluted, except for those grand elders in the Foundation Establishment Period: "I have met the patriarch."

"Hello, fellow clansmen."

Zhou Yang waved his hand, looked at all the clan members with a serious face and said in a loud voice: "Today, everyone is summoned here to announce a major event concerning the prosperity and decline of my Zhou family!"

When he said this, he paused deliberately, and waited until all the clansmen were attracted by his words, and then continued: "The big thing is that after several years of searching, our Zhou family finally found another one that can build The third-order spiritual vein of the oasis!"

"So, the purpose of gathering everyone this time is to practice what I said at the family meeting last time, to lead everyone to exterminate the monsters occupying the spiritual veins, and to establish the spiritual veins as the third seat of our Zhou family. Step Spirit Mountain!"

After saying this, he looked at the group of people who were excited by his words, and let out a deafening roar: "Now, on behalf of the family, I would like to ask you, are you willing to use the magic weapon in your hand, use your own Are you willing to sacrifice your life and shed blood for the prosperity of the family?"

"willing!"

Hundreds of monks from the Zhou family shouted loudly because of what Zhou Yang said.

The education they have received since they were young, and their personal experience growing up, have told these Zhou family monks a truth, only when the family is strong, their own path of cultivation will be smoother, and their offspring will have a better life.

Now an opportunity to make the family stronger is in front of them. As family monks, how can they shrink back because of fear of hardship, fatigue and death?

"Very well, on behalf of the family, thank you for your support."

Zhou Yang nodded in satisfaction, bowed his hands solemnly to all the clansmen, and then waved his hands: "Now, all monks whose cultivation base is above the middle stage of Qi training are invited to come out, this time you will join me and everyone The elders of the family are fighting side by side, shoulder to shoulder for the family's road to prosperity, and create brilliance together!"
