Cultivation Begins From The Desert

Practice has no years, and the cold and heat do not know the years.

In the blink of an eye, Zhou Yang retreated for twelve cold and hot days in the training room in the "Extreme Sun Cave".

During the period, because the rent he paid for his practice room was due, Xiao Ying, who had been instructed by him before retreat, rushed over to help him renew the rent for five years.

And after 12 years of retreat, Zhou Yang used up all the pills to improve his cultivation, and used up the two spirits "Ziyang Zhuguo" and "Yunwu Immortal Tea", and finally succeeded in raising his cultivation to the level of Ziyang. The ninth floor of the mansion.

At the age of 257, he cultivated to the ninth floor of the Purple Mansion. Even if this speed is placed in the top sects like Xuanyang Xianzong, he can still compete with those true disciples.

This means that as long as Zhou Yang doesn't die halfway, he will have at least four or five chances to hit the golden core stage.

And most of the Zifu monks, even if they can cultivate to the ninth floor of the Zifu, they will be at least four hundred years old when they reach the ninth floor of the Zifu. Chance.

"This time is really dangerous. I didn't expect that the spiritual fruit that is suspected to be [Purple Sun Vermillion Fruit] actually contains the extremely vicious extreme yang fire poison. If it wasn't for my Qianyang treasure body, which is as strong as the yang body, it would be Practicing the extreme yang skills such as "Qianyang Immortal Scripture", I am afraid that not only will you not be able to use the power of medicine to improve your cultivation, but you will also be eroded by the extreme yang fire poison and your mana will destroy your cultivation foundation, and you may even go crazy and explode and die!"

"Eat a pit, gain a wisdom, if you encounter this kind of spiritual fruit and panacea whose authenticity cannot be determined in the future, you must not take it rashly, otherwise you may not have such good luck next time!"

In the training room of "Extreme Sun Cave", Zhou Yang, who had already stabilized his cultivation base, still felt terrified when he recalled the dangers he encountered during his retreat and breakthrough.

He is now sure that the purple-red spiritual fruit must not be the normal "Purple Sun Vermilion Fruit", because after he took this spiritual fruit in the end, although there was also a burst of pure fire-type spiritual power bursting out of his body, he could directly help him after refining it. He rushed to the ninth floor of the Purple Mansion, and even directly used the majestic and pure spiritual power inside to stabilize his cultivation on the ninth floor of the Purple Mansion.

However, there was also an extreme yang fire poison that could not be detected before, which eroded the meridians all over his body with the power of the spirit fruit, and almost killed him directly.

At that time, if he had changed to a cultivator of the Zifu period, he would definitely have died.

Even the monks at the golden core stage will definitely be injured by the extremely yang fire poison, and then let alone relying on the power of the spiritual fruit to improve their cultivation, even the body and the golden core will be injured by the extremely yang fire poison. It may not be possible to completely eradicate the fire poison without recuperating for decades.

But Zhou Yang didn't know that the spiritual fruit was indeed "Purple Sun Vermillion Fruit".

Outsiders only know that the Haoyang School has the only "Purple Sun Vermillion Fruit" tree in the Far West, but they don't know that the "Purple Sun Vermilion Fruit" tree is rooted on the underground fire veins, and grows by absorbing the power of the underground fire veins. In the process, it will also be eroded by the fire poison contained in the power of the underground fire veins.

The way for fruit trees to get rid of the fire poison is to introduce the fire poison into one or several spiritual fruits every time they bear fruit, and then use the opportunity of the immortal cultivator to remove the fire poison to expel the fire poison.

The monks of the Haoyang School didn't know about this situation at first, and there were also many immortal cultivators who were enlightened, and even some Jindan stage monks were directly destroyed by the Taoist foundation, and they have never made any further progress since then.

Later, the Nascent Soul Stage monks of the Haoyang School discovered this situation. Every time the "Purple Sun Vermillion Fruit" was ripe, the Nascent Soul Stage monks would personally pick it, and pick out the poisonous fruit inside and dispose of it.

The "Purple Sun Vermillion Fruit" that Zhou Yang obtained at an underground auction is such a poisonous fruit.

It was because of his great fortune and destiny that he was not hurt by the poisonous fruit. Instead, it was a blessing in disguise and he successfully raised his cultivation base to the ninth floor of the Purple Mansion.

At this time, although he knew that he had been plotted against, because he didn't understand the inside story, he could only blame his poor eyesight, but he didn't say anything about wanting revenge.

After all, the things at the underground auction had come from wrong paths, and the monks who went there to buy things had already prepared themselves in various ways.

What's more, he didn't know who held the auction, and who consigned the "Ziyang vermilion fruit", and he couldn't find anyone to seek revenge.

This is the case in the world of cultivating immortals. Without your noticing, it will show you its cruel scene.

What Zhou Yang can do is to make every effort to adapt to this cruel world, and use his own powerful strength to smash all the plots and schemes.

Because his cultivation had reached the ninth floor of the Purple Mansion, there was no room for further promotion. After Zhou Yang stabilized his cultivation, he quickly walked out of the training room and refunded the rent for the remaining three years.

Then he went to Taoist Xiao Ying's cave in the "Wanmu Spiritual Land", and asked her about what had happened during the years of his retreat.

Xiao Ying has been promoted to the sixth floor of the Purple Mansion with the help of the "Wanmu Spiritual Land" cave and spiritual pills in recent years. If she hadn't put her mind on cultivation, she should have become a A late monk in the Zifu.

But being distracted is not all a bad thing. After several attempts over the years, she finally succeeded in refining a fourth-tier middle-grade elixir, and became a fourth-tier middle-grade alchemist.

Zhou Yang was also sincerely happy when he learned the news after leaving customs.

It should be noted that the higher the cultivation level of the immortal cultivator, the more difficult it is to upgrade the various skills of cultivating immortality to the corresponding level of cultivation.

For those Jindan stage monks who have thoroughly practiced all the arts of cultivating immortals before the golden core stage, it is difficult for two or three of them to advance to the fifth level of the hundred arts of cultivating immortals. They are very popular in the circle of senior monks.

Zhou Yang's ability to raise the Artifact Refining Technique to the fourth-level top-rank is also the result of the superposition of various factors.

Among them, Xu Song, the fifth-level refining master, pointed out the help of "Qianyang True Fire", the most suitable refining real fire, and the suitable refining materials that have never been lacking. What are the three missing? It is impossible for a single factor to allow him to become a fourth-tier high-grade refiner so quickly.

Compared with him, Xiao Ying, except for his help in mastering the "Jing Mi Qinglianhuo", a heaven and earth spiritual fire suitable for alchemy, other achievements in alchemy were all achieved by her own research. of.

He can get enough refining materials for refining by slaughtering a fourth-order monster casually, but it takes a lot of time to collect relevant elixir for alchemy. This is the biggest difference between an alchemist and an alchemist.

Therefore, in the world of cultivating immortals, the status of alchemists of the same level is much higher than that of weapon refiners and talisman masters of the same level, and is second only to array mages of the same level.

"Husband, during these years of your retreat, Jin Qu came to my concubine several times to inquire about you. According to my concubine, he might not give up and wants you to go to the battlefield!"

"Now that your cultivation base has reached the ninth floor of the Purple Mansion, and if there is a request from Guangxiang, we might as well leave Haoyang Immortal City and return to Cangyuan Immortal City, completely cutting off his thoughts!"

In Xiao Ying's cave, after she explained to Zhou Yang who came to the door what had happened in these years, she actually actively persuaded Zhou Yang to move out of Haoyang Immortal City.

It turns out that as the war between the Great Bright Immortal Palace and the Anti-Light Alliance has progressed to its fifteenth year, the intensity of the war between the two sides has become more and more intense, and it is not uncommon for high-ranking monks to fall.

In the fifteen years since the war started, the number of purple mansion stage monks who have fallen together on both sides has exceeded fifty, and even three golden core stage monks have fallen.

If we compare the situation of the last two wars, the shortest period is three to five years, and the longest period is ten years or eight years. I am afraid that the life-and-death struggle of high-level monks will be staged, and the number of high-level monks who will die will increase significantly. up.

Even Xiao Ying had already guessed that Jin Qu was eager to find Zhou Yang to "fight on his behalf" at this time, and he must be counting on Zhou Yang to replace their Qingyuan Sword Sect monks to participate in the life-and-death struggle, so as to avoid Zi Zi, who was expected to form an alchemy. In the late period of the palace, the monks fell on the battlefield.

She was worried that something would happen to her Taoist companion, so of course she would not allow this to happen.

And the reason she was looking for is also very good, that is, since Zhou Guangxiang went to practice in Cangyuan Immortal City, because of her status as a single female cultivator in the purple mansion period, it turned out that the city lord of Cangyuan Immortal City, Cangyuan Sanren, who was also just Not many years after the establishment of the Zifu, the descendants of the Zifu paid attention and wanted to pursue Zhou Guangxiang as his Taoist companion.

Zhou Guangxiang herself doesn't necessarily like the descendant of Cangyuan Sanren who pursues her very much, but she deeply knows how much Zhou Yang and Zhou Guangxiang, the two people closest to her, hope that the Zhou family can walk out of the boundless sand sea and cultivate immortals. The land of the extreme west established a family.

Therefore, she specially asked Li Hong to go to Haoyang Immortal City, told Xiao Ying the news, and asked Xiao Ying to tell Zhou Yang to make up his mind.

If Zhou Yang thinks it is feasible, Zhou Guangxiang decides to accept the pursuit of the descendant of Cangyuan Sanren and become a Taoist couple with him, and then Zhou Yang and his wife will marry her as the parents of the woman.

In this way, not only can she take care of the Zhou family in an open and aboveboard manner, but when Cangyuan Sanren dies and Zhou Yang succeeds in forming alchemy, the Zhou family can take advantage of the trend to occupy the magpie's nest and turn the Cangyuan fairy city into the Zhou family's fairy city.

It has to be said that Zhou Guangxiang's plan has a lot to offer.

First of all, Cangyuan Sanren himself has a lifespan of more than 800 years, and at most he will die when he lives more than 100 years old. If everything goes well for Zhou Yang, he should have already formed a pill by then. I'm not afraid that I won't be able to defend this fairy city.

Secondly, although Cangyuan Sanren also established a family, but because he is dedicated to pursuing the Dao, there are actually not many successful monks among the descendants of the family. Except for the monk who pursued Zhou Guangxiang, there is only one other monk who is more than 400 years old. He is a monk in the late period of the mansion.

If everything goes well in this way, when Cangyuan Sanren sits down, the only one in his family will be the monk of the Zifu period who became a Taoist partner with Zhou Guangxiang.

Such a cultivator in the Zifu period might not even be able to keep the treasures left to his family by Cangyuan Sanren, so how can he inherit the position of the city lord of Cangyuan Immortal City.

At that time, as long as Zhou Yang promises to protect him and his family and help him keep the treasures left by Cangyuan Sanren, he will definitely recommend Zhou Yang to take over the position of Cangyuan Immortal City City Lord.

It’s just that this plan also has a difficulty, that is, Cangyuan Sanren not only has a Golden Core stage monk, Cangyuan Sanren, but also a deputy city lord, who is also a Golden Core stage monk, and has a master-student relationship with Cangyuan Sanren.

From a jurisprudential point of view, it is more reasonable for the other party to succeed as the city lord of Cangyuan Immortal City as the deputy city lord and Cangyuan Sanren's apprentice than Cangyuan Sanren, a descendant of the Zifu period.

Of course, in the world of cultivating immortals, whoever has the biggest fist has the final say. As long as Zhou Yang is recommended by the descendants of Cangyuan Sanren, and then defeats the deputy city lord apprentice of Cangyuan Sanren, he will naturally be able to make the other party honestly surrender the position of city lord.

Zhou Yang heard Xiao Ying's words at this time, but he didn't express his position on leaving Haoyang Immortal City, but said with a sullen face: "Guang Xiang must not have thought of such a plan, and it was probably Li Hong who found out about this situation. Suggest and persuade her to make this plan!"

Recently, I feel a little tired, and I don’t want to say anything. I haven’t had time to thank the big guys for their rewards. Here, I would like to thank you. Thanks to Mu Mu’s steel bar, Wu Qingyun 5, and Drunken Dream Xiaoyao for their rewards. There are also rewards from book friends such as Kunpeng KM, Albert_Newton, Zhuhai Aaron, Long Xiaoshao, etc.! There is no way to add rewards and updates for the time being. The daily update of 6,000 words has exhausted both mental and physical effort, hey!
