Cultivation Begins From The Desert

The sudden addition of "Tianjian Daoist" was obviously beyond Zhou Yang's expectations, and he almost fell into the trap of the other party.

Obviously, if he publicly admits that he is a traitor of the "Back to the Light League", then "Tianjian Daoist", as the leader of the alliance, can naturally kill him with a single sword.

No matter what his reasons, betrayal is always betrayal!

Fortunately, he woke up in time, kept silent and did not answer the other party's question.

Lu Xuanji also reacted quickly, and quickly moved Zhou Yang behind him to protect him.

"Reverend Chihua" saw this scene, his face darkened, he looked at "Reverend Tianjian" coldly and sneered: "Why, Tianjian, you are getting angry from embarrassment, do you want to use an excuse to vent your anger on a junior? "

"Tianjian Daoist" didn't deny this, but said lightly: "The one who deceives the master and destroys the ancestors should be killed!"

"Daoist friends are so majestic!"

Lu Xuanji sneered, then squinted his eyes at "Tianjian Daoist" and said: "Then Guo Jinhong's death also owes to this old man, do you want to kill this old man too?"

"You are not from my land in the far west, but you enter my land in the far west to kill people, of course this seat will not ignore you!"

"Tianjian Daoist" responded with a very firm voice, and just as the words fell, the long sword behind his back came out of its sheath with a "clang".

"Today, let me come to experience Your Excellency's brilliant move!"

If there is a disagreement, the sword will be drawn, and "Tianjian Daoist" is indeed a pure swordsman.

Although Lu Xuanji is not a swordsman, he is also a person who is good at controlling swords. Immediately, he sacrificed his flying sword and started a sword fight with "Tianjian Daoist".

His flying sword is a red gold flying sword, named "Xuanyang Zhuxie Sword". It is a sixth-grade high-grade flying sword handed down from ancient times. The Supreme Great Elder is used for sacrificial refining, and the quality is absolutely top-notch.

However, the flying sword of "Tianjian Daoist" is a silver flying sword, the sword is three feet long, and when it is unsheathed, it exudes an extremely sharp sword energy. This sword is the secret method of his Taixuan Sword Sect The natal flying sword that was sacrificed was called "Taixuan Zhan Dao Sword", which had also been refined by him to reach the sixth-level top grade.

These two flying swords, one gold and one silver, fought back and forth under the envoys of the two "half-step true immortals" on the ninth floor of the Nascent Soul. In the sky, only countless gold and silver two-color swords were seen. Zhou Yang couldn't even see where Feijian's body was.

Fortunately, the two "Half-Step True Immortals" have reached the ultimate level of control over the power of the flying swords. Although it was a sword fight, there was very little sword energy overflowing, and the power was restrained and controlled to the two flying swords.

After such a sword fight lasted for about half a quarter of an hour, it ended with Lu Xuanji taking the initiative to withdraw his sword.

"Fellow Daoist's swordsmanship is exquisite, close to Dao, the name of Heavenly Sword is well-deserved!"

"Only talking about the skill of controlling the sword, Lu is willing to bow down."

Lu Xuanji withdrew the flying sword, made it hover above his head, and looked at the opposite "Tianjian Daoist" with a solemn expression, and admitted that his skills were inferior to others.

"What magical powers do you have, just use them."

"Tianjian Daoist" stood with his sword hanging, but he didn't want to let it go.

Lu Xuanji knew that "Tianjian Daoist" wanted to measure his true strength in order to decide how to solve today's matter.

If he behaved mediocrely, then "Tianjian Daoist" would definitely not give up easily, maybe he would summon the "Tianlei Daoist" Lei Wanpeng and others who were watching the battle from behind to besiege him, in order to keep one or two of them.

Therefore, he didn't talk nonsense, and directly responded: "Since fellow Taoist said so, Lu will learn from fellow Taoist again."

As soon as the words fell, he waved his sleeves, and once again sacrificed several powerful sixth-order magic weapons, and combined with his own magical powers, he fought against the "Tianjian Daoist" in the air.

The two of them directly fought in the "Nine Heavens Absolute Territory", where the inexhaustible "Nine Heavens Stellar Wind" could eliminate the aftermath of their fighting skills and not cause too much damage to the ground below.

Otherwise, if a strong man of their level fights below, a sword qi will fall to the ground, and it will immediately smash the mountains and rivers and cause great trauma to the earth.

Zhou Yang looked up to the sky from below, and saw the sword light and the thunder light shining above the sky. He couldn't see the figures of the two sides at all, and could only see the sound and light caused by the power of the two sides.

Occasionally, a sword energy that has not been completely dissipated by the "Nine Heavens Gangfeng" falls from the sky to the ground, and it will immediately leave a crack on the ground that is hundreds or hundreds of feet long. All the fish and insects were shattered into dust by the sword energy.

Sometimes there will be purple lightning falling, crashing the ground, causing a fire that spreads for dozens of miles.

These are just the aftermath of the aftermath. It can be seen how terrifying the power will be if the two "half-step true immortals" fight with all their strength and hit a real fire.

This battle lasted for nearly half a day before it ended.

When the last two returned, their images were in a bit of a mess.

Lu Xuanji's magic robe was torn many times by the sword energy, and became a beggar's attire, and a pink and tender new skin can be seen on his cheek.

"Tianjian Daoist" has simply changed into a magic robe, but the white hair on his head is much shorter, and it seems that he is also a newborn.

"I won't let this matter go. Fifty years later, I will fight Chihua on the West Sea to the death!"

The returning "Tianjian Immortal" took a deep look at Lu Xuanji, then turned his gaze to "Chihua Immortal", and said his decision in a cold tone.

This is what he did with Guo Jinhong's death.

"Okay, then as you wish, we will fight for life and death fifty years later!"

"Reverend Chihua" complexion darkened, but he agreed on the spot without showing any weakness.

Being able to let the two "half-step true immortals" of the ninth level of Nascent Soul fight for their own life and death, Guo Jinhong can be regarded as an unjust death.

Therefore, even Peng Yuanjing, the only Nascent Soul cultivator of the Haoyang Sect, did not object at all when he heard the decision of "Tianjian Daoist".

So, the matter was settled.

After that, Zhou Yang, together with Lu Xuanji and others, left the territory of the "Backlight League" under the "escort" of a group of nascent stage monks from the "Backlight League", and entered the territory of the Great Bright Immortal Palace.

It is foreseeable that after this incident, not only will Zhou Yang's arrest warrant in the "Backlight League" not be cancelled, but more rewards will be added.

However, this is of no use to him who is planning to develop in the world of cultivating immortals in Liuyunzhou in the future. Anyway, the benefits he got this time are big enough, and paying such a small price for it can be said to be a huge profit.

And don't look at the additional rewards, in fact, because Guo Jinhong, who has the deepest hatred against him, is dead, even if he shows up on the "Backlight League" site in the future, he will at most attract the siege of some Jindan stage monks. It is unlikely that he would personally come forward to hunt down a golden core stage monk for that point of reward, unless he killed someone the other party cared about.

But with his current strength, would he be afraid of being besieged by some monks of the same realm?

"Zhou Xiaoyou, this matter is over, the old man is going back to Liuyunzhou to cultivate immortals, do you want to leave with the old man?"

On a certain mountain peak within the Great Bright Immortal Palace, Lu Xuanji and Zhou Yang, who had parted ways with Yin Hanguang and the "Reverend Chihua", stood on the top of the mountain, and they were also saying farewell.

"This junior still has a few things to deal with in this far western land, so I won't accompany you to leave, Senior Lu. This is the map of the place where the teleportation array is located. There is a ghost servant kept by the junior in captivity to guard it. Senior, if you If you want to use the teleportation array, you can go there."

Zhou Yang respectfully presented the map of "Fallen Valley" and gave his answer.

"I don't need a map. It's too extravagant for me to use this large teleportation array by myself. It only takes less than a month. If there is no urgent matter, there is no need for such a luxury at all."

Lu Xuanji shook his head slightly, he didn't go to pick up Zhou Yang's map, and he didn't intend to use the teleportation array to leave.

Indeed, even if he is a "half-step true immortal" of the ninth level of the Nascent Soul, it is too extravagant to spend thirty-six high-grade spirit stones in less than a month just to hurry.

The role of the large teleportation array is mainly for monks below the Nascent Soul stage who cannot easily pass through the "death sand sea", or for quick support.

Even in the Great Bright Immortal Palace in its heyday, no Nascent Soul cultivator could afford to use such a large teleportation array alone, saving him less than a month of travel time.

After Zhou Yang heard his words, he could only take back the map, then looked at him with admiration and sighed: "Senior Lu is so cultivated and frugal, this junior really admires and is ashamed!"

I never thought that when Lu Xuanji heard his words, he looked at him with a strange expression and said, "You really know how to flatter me, you kid. You already knew that this old man can't use teleportation arrays, so you said that?"

You have seen it all!

Zhou Yang thought to himself.

On the surface, he said with no embarrassment at all: "If it weren't for Senior Lu himself being a frugal person, this junior would have no way of expressing his admiration for senior, so these words are definitely from the bottom of my heart. There is no falsehood!"

Lu Xuanji was slightly taken aback, then couldn't help laughing and said: "Hahahaha, you are interesting, if I met you hundreds of years ago, I might be moved to accept disciples like Junior Brother Qingyang. What a pity, what a pity!"

It's a pity that he doesn't have much lifespan now, and Zhou Yang's wings are gradually growing, so it's impossible to talk about the theory of recruiting disciples.

Lu Xuanji left, and soon disappeared from Zhou Yang's sight as a stream of red light.

But before he left, he left a gift for Zhou Yang, which was ten dragon scales picked off from the sixth-order dragon "Chi Xiao".

If the scales of the sixth-level flood dragon are sufficient, and a sixth-level master refining master with superb refining skills can refine it, it is very likely that a rare sixth-level defensive magic weapon can be refined.

However, this kind of sixth-order master craftsman is more difficult to find than sixth-order dragon scales, and the price of inviting him to refine weapons will not be lower than the value of sixth-order dragon scales used for refining.

So Zhou Yang quickly dispelled this idea, and decided to wait until his refining technique was promoted to the fifth level, and then use this thing to refine a powerful defensive magic weapon for himself.

Next, Zhou Yang secretly infiltrated into the territory of the "Backlight League", and then infiltrated into the territory of Dayun State adjacent to Yu State.

Dayun Country is located between Yu Country and Jinyang Country. When Zhou Yang came to the Far West for the first time, he set off from Yu Country to Jinyang Country, which was through Dayun Country.

However, the territory of Dayun Kingdom is mountainous and the terrain is complex. In addition, there are only three sects of great cultivators in this country. Unlike Yu Kingdom, there are many sects. For some small families and casual cultivators, it is an excellent practice environment.

In some remote mountains of Dayun Kingdom, there are many second-order or third-order spiritual veins that the great practice sects and the great Xiuxian family look down on. Product output has never been valued by big forces.

But for some casual cultivators and small family monks who only want a place to live, this kind of place is worth fighting for.

The Zhou family of Cangyuan Immortal City occupied a second-order high-grade spiritual vein in a remote place called the Gray Rock Mountain Range in Dayun Kingdom more than 30 years ago, and spent spirit stones to upgrade it to third-order Low grade.

Most of the Zhou family monks who have withdrawn from Cangyuan Immortal City have moved here.

For the remote gray rock mountains, the Zhou family, which has more than ten foundation-building monks, is undoubtedly a giant. Therefore, since the Zhou family monks migrated here, some other small families and casual cultivators living on the spiritual veins here have all They all expressed their surrender and sent some local specialties as tributes.

Zhou Yang is currently on the Zhou family's spiritual mountain, enjoying a second-order spiritual fruit called "Shu'er Fruit".

This "rat fruit" looks like a peanut, but it is much bigger than a peanut, the size of a walnut. It is a special product of the Limestone Mountain Range, because there are many kinds of spirited rat demons in this mountain range. Most of them grow in those lairs of rat demons, hence the name.

For monks in the qi training period, this object can heal internal injuries and restore blood and vitality. It is one of the tributes paid to the Zhou family by those small families and casual cultivators in the Limestone Mountains.

But for Zhou Yang, whose cultivation base is as high as the golden core stage, this food is just a kind of food with a unique taste.

"So, you are doing pretty well here now?"

In the cave, Zhou Yang listened to Zhou Tongyue and Li Hong's report on the Zhou family's situation after they moved to Dayun Kingdom, and his face suddenly showed thoughtfulness.

"It's good to say, but it's just fun in the bitterness!"

"This limestone mountain range is so barren that even a second-order elixir can make people fight over their heads. In terms of resources, it is not much better than when we were in the boundless sand sea. Even if the Zhou family can occupy the entire limestone mountain range, I can't support so many monks in the family."

"Now, relying on the spirit stone treasure that you bestowed on us by the ancestor, we can temporarily appease those clansmen. When these things are exhausted, if we don't make any moves, people's hearts may be scattered!"

Li Hong smiled wryly and shook his head, but he did not agree with Zhou Yang's words.

The casual cultivators and small families in the Gray Rock Mountains felt that the Zhou family was extremely beautiful and prestigious, but how could they know that under this beauty, there were actually many hidden dangers.

Then he seemed to be afraid that this would not be enough to attract Zhou Yang's attention, so he said with a worried face:

"Although this gray rock mountain range is remote, it has not escaped the sight of the great families and sects of the Dayun Kingdom. After our Zhou family withdrew to the Dayun Kingdom, several big families have already sent people over to recruit us. "

"Previously, the juniors could use the fact that the old master was still alive and had no foothold to prevaricate them, but after the past few years, the juniors can already feel that their patience is about to run out. If I don't wait, I will choose a family to attach to, and I won't move out. If this gray rock mountain range is concerned, I am afraid that they will join hands to destroy us first, and then divide up our family wealth!"

No matter which world a person lives in, it's like this.

The Zhou family moved from Cangyuan Xiancheng, Yu State, to the limestone mountains of Dayun State. The local powerful forces in Dayun State must know about it, and they will certainly not be indifferent.

If it weren't for their understanding, they only temporarily settled in this remote and barren limestone mountain range, and never expanded outwards, I am afraid that someone would have eagerly found an excuse to wipe them out, so as to collect their wealth.

Even so, it is impossible for them to develop stably here. Those families in Dayun Kingdom who have monks in the Zifu period will not want to see the Zhou family with more than ten monks in the foundation period settling down next to them. One day, a Zifu family appeared on an equal footing with them.

The Zhou family is willing to rely on them as vassals, and they can allow the Zhou family to survive depending on the situation.

Of course, afterward, they must find all kinds of excuses to transfer the Zhou family's foundation-building stage monks to fight monsters, and finally weaken the Zhou family's strength, so that the Zhou family will no longer be able to threaten their main family.

As smart as Li Hong, he naturally wouldn't fail to see these things, so he never thought of living in this gray rock mountain range for a long time.

"So, you still want to go back to Cangyuan Immortal City, right?"

Zhou Yang stared at this shrewd and capable junior of the family, and helped him say what he wanted to say but didn't say clearly.

"Please have mercy on the ancestor!"

Li Hong fell to his knees and kowtowed.

Seeing this, Zhou Tongyue, who was next to him, quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Please have mercy on the ancestor!"

"I can help you kill Geng Zhong and his cronies, but without Geng Zhong, Cangyuan Immortal City would not be ruled by you. With your strength, at most, you will become one of the powerful families!"

"Now that the Li family has been destroyed and Li Mubai is wanted, it is impossible for me to let the Li family take power. Once you return to Cangyuan Immortal City, you will have to fight alone in the future!"

Zhou Yang shook his head while talking.

It wasn't supposed to be like this!

If "Cangyuan Sanren" Li Cangyuan could live for a few more years, Zhou Yang could join hands with "Cangyuan Sanren" to perform a play, use his identity as a friend of "Cangyuan Sanren" to kill the domineering Geng Loyalty, and then "Cangyuan Sanren" asked him to sit in Cangyuan Xiancheng and help the Li family continue to hold power.

There were no Yuanying stage monks in Yu country, and Zhou Yang had the disguise mask given by Lu Xuanji to cover his face at that time, and "Cangyuan Sanren" himself testified for him, so he was very confident that he would be able to successfully accomplish this matter.

It's a pity that God's will tricks people, the plan is not as fast as the change, he didn't expect "Cangyuan Sanren" to sit down so quickly, and he didn't expect Geng Zhong to penetrate so deeply into the Li family, Zhou Guangxiang's secret meeting with Taoist couples and children would be exposed come out.

This series of changes made his original plan impossible.

Before coming to this limestone mountain range, Zhou Yang also considered how to arrange the Zhou family here, and he prepared two options for Li Hong and the others.

One is to go to the territory of the Great Bright Immortal Palace, and rely on the Great Bright Immortal Palace. Based on his relationship with Yin Hanguang, he only needs to say hello, and the Zhou family will definitely not suffer any trouble there.

The second is to let the Zhou family develop in the Dayun Kingdom. Anyway, the relationship between the Zhou family and Zhou Yang has not been exposed. It is entirely possible to find a sect of cultivation or a big family in the Dayun Kingdom to join, and then he can still secretly fund some spiritual aids. its development.

At this time, after shaking his head and sighing for a while, he still expressed his two opinions.

"I appreciate the kindness of the ancestor, but if we go to the Great Bright Immortal Palace, our relationship with the ancestor will be fully exposed. When the ancestor is not here, if Haoyangzong wants to take revenge on you, If you take me out of anger, I won't be able to stop it at all, presumably the Great Bright Immortal Palace will not specially send experts to sit in our Zhou family all the time, right?"

"As for the Dayun Kingdom, we can't stay any longer. The size of our Zhou family is here. Even if we find someone to join us, those big families will definitely not fully trust and accept us, and how can those big sects accept us? The family with the foundation of mortals? Are we going to send all the children of the family to the sect?"

Li Hong also shook his head for a while, declined Zhou Yang's two proposals without hesitation, and explained the reasons for his refusal.

Zhou Yang is not unaware of these disadvantages, but even if there are these disadvantages, there is always a way out.

But still the same sentence, Zhou Tongyue and Li Hong are in charge of the Zhou family here, and they know the situation best, so he can't intervene rashly and insist that they do what he says.

Otherwise, if something happens due to his forced arrangement in the future, he will be more responsible. He is most afraid that the Zhou family here will be divorced from the family and completely leave the family.

"Alright, since you all insist on returning to Cangyuan Immortal City, I won't stop you, Patriarch."

He nodded, respecting the choice of Li Hong and his wife, then with a wave of his hand, he took out two jade bottles and threw them to them.

"It just so happened that I bought three copies of [Purple Heart Chalcedony] in the world of cultivating immortals in Liuyunzhou not long ago. These two copies are the rewards from my ancestors and my family for your hard work over the years. Although the two of you have lived more than 210 years Years old, it doesn't meet the family's requirements for using this kind of spiritual thing, but the ancestor and I have done something special this time, I hope you take care of yourself, and don't let down the expectations of the ancestor, me and the family for you!"

To be honest, Zhou Yang had been struggling for a long time whether to give the two precious "Purple Heart Chalcedony" to Zhou Tongyue and Li Hong, two old men in their 210s.

Although the Zhou family is now rich, it still depends on luck if they want to get such spiritual objects. There are not enough young people in the family who meet the conditions!

But Zhou Tongyue and Li Hong have indeed made great contributions, and he has always adhered to the principle of rewarding those who have made great contributions.

Especially Li Hong, Zhou Yang is now very optimistic about this junior, and very much hopes that he can work for another few hundred years, and really wants to see what surprises this junior can bring to him in the future.
