Cultivation Begins From The Desert

When Li Mubai took hundreds of Geng's monks' heads out of the city to pay homage to his clansmen, Zhou Yang searched the treasuries of several families including the Geng's.

The reason why Geng Zhong actively slaughtered the Li family at the beginning was not only to carry out Guo Jinhong's order, but also to express the anger of being hanged and beaten by Zhou Yang, the most important reason was to covet the Li family's property.

"Cangyuan Sanren" Li Cangyuan is the founder of Cangyuan Immortal City. For hundreds of years, the Li family and he have accumulated a lot of wealth because of this Immortal City.

Even though "Cangyuan Sanren" Li Cangyuan gave him a lot of things in order to let Geng Zhong let Li's family go, he still couldn't satisfy him.

Now most of the Li family's wealth is stored in the underground treasure house of the City Lord's Mansion.

But all the treasure houses used to store family savings are always heavily guarded, and some even have "bloodline gods" to prevent the enemy from obtaining the treasures inside.

But since Zhou Yang had such a plan, how could he not be prepared?

Geng Zhong's private treasury in the City Lord's Mansion, after he destroyed the outer defense circle, he directly used the enhanced version of "Qianyang True Fire" to burn through the thick alloy wall and ransack it.

The Geng family's treasury with the "Blood Vessel God's Forbidden" was easily opened by him with Geng Zhong's own blood and the treasure house opening formula he learned from his memory through the "Soul Search Dafa", and he also ransacked the precious things empty.

As for those Zifu families, they haven't used such high-level things as the "Bloodline Divine Forbidden". For Zhou Yang, the treasure house can be destroyed in one blow, and it doesn't take much effort at all.

He moved very quickly, and in less than half a day, he completed the search of all the exterminated families and their stores in the city.

Then Geng Zhong, who became demented because of the "Soul Search Dafa", was handed over to Li Mubai and chopped up, and his head was placed on the top of the Jingguan built by hundreds of monks from the Geng family, and he took Li Mubai directly to leave Cangzhong. Yuanxian City disappeared in front of everyone.

It wasn't until after Zhou Yang took Li Mubai away that the other residents of Cangyuan Xiancheng who were shivering because of this bloody revenge and hid at home dared to come out to check the specific situation, and then a big looting inevitably happened.

Although Zhou Yang had obtained all the essences in the treasuries of the exterminated families, his storage rings were limited, and it was impossible to pretend to take everything away. In fact, many large and not particularly valuable spiritual objects were thrown away by him. He didn't take it away, let alone the spiritual plants planted on various spiritual mountains and the spiritual mines hoarded.

In addition, there were many corpses of monks who were killed, and he didn't have time to search them. He only searched for the magical storage tools carried by those important people.

He couldn't take these things away, and he didn't destroy them. Now they are all ownerless things, and anyone can go up and snatch them.

And because there is no city lord Geng Zhong, and there are no city lord Geng Zhong's confidant monks to suppress them in the city, when other residents in the fairy city looted these things, they did not have any psychological pressure at all.

Even many monks who originally belonged to the Cangyuan Immortal City Guard joined in the looting, and there were many bloody fights for this reason.

When the Jindanqi monks from other forces in the Yu Kingdom heard that Zhou Yang, an important wanted criminal of the "Backlight Alliance", had appeared in Cangyuan Xiancheng and rushed to hunt him down, they stopped the looting with overwhelming force and brought order to Cangyuan Xiancheng. Back to normal again.

Next, as the news spread, all kinds of small family forces like the Zhou family who fled Cangyuan Immortal City because of the change of the city lord gathered together like wolves who smelled fishy smells, including several people led by Li Hong. A foundation-building monk of the Zhou family.

There are more than a dozen monks in the Golden Core Stage of the Yu State, and behind these people are seven or eight different forces. The formerly prosperous Cangyuan Immortal City suddenly lost its owner, and everyone wants to reach out and take this ever-prospering Immortal City under their influence. middle.

But in the case of mutual restraint, no one can get what they want.

At this time, as long as the Zhou family and other forces that originally belonged to Cangyuan Immortal City showed a slight willingness to join a certain force, they would be readily accepted immediately.

The two sides hit it off, one side needs to find a strong enough backer for oneself to rely on, and the other side needs an excuse to legitimately intervene in Cangyuan Immortal City, which can be described as mutual gain.

Zhou Yang didn't pay attention to how Li Hong got the best of both worlds among the many powerful forces and gained benefits for the Zhou family.

After he evacuated Cangyuan Immortal City with Li Mubai, he began to recall the foundation-builder monks of the Zhou family who had returned from traveling to the Far West, and prepared to leave the Far West.

In the end, a total of 15 of the 17 Zhou Family Foundation Establishment cultivators he brought back for training in the Far West came back, and the soul cards of the other two were broken, proving that they had been killed.

Regarding the two murdered Zhou Family Foundation Establishment cultivators, Zhou Yang had no intention of avenging them other than to express his condolences.

He didn't even know where the two were killed, let alone find the murderer for them. The Far West is not the boundless sand sea cultivation world where their Zhou family decides, and they can let them search everywhere to find the murderer.

What's more, traveling to the world of cultivating immortals is a dangerous thing in itself. Even if they are disciples of the top martial arts sect like Xuanyang Xianzong, not all those who go out to travel can come back in full.

Identity and background can only bring security and reliance to people in public places. In the wilderness and uninhabited land, facing a life-and-death struggle, who cares about the background of the opponent.

Although two Foundation Establishment monks were lost, the number of Zhou Yang and the others returning to the world of cultivating immortals in the boundless sand sea did not decrease but increased.

In the end, Li Mubai chose to leave this sad place with Zhou Yang, and went to the Boundless Sand Sea to rebuild their Li family. Among the accompanying people were him and a pair of children, Li Zifeng and Li Zinan.

In addition, Zhou Fuyun, Zhou Zeqian, mother and son who Zhou Yang promised to bring back to the world of cultivating immortals in the boundless sand sea, the number of people was naturally a few more.

In fact, the few foundation-building monks on the Zhou family’s side in the far western land heard about the situation in their own family, and they all expressed their willingness to follow Zhou Yang to the boundless sand sea to cultivate immortals to recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors. In fact, they just didn’t want to. Then in the Far West, we will be frightened and frightened, trying to survive in the cracks.

But Zhou Yang considered that Li Hong needed manpower to develop the Zhou family here, so he calmed down those people and gave up this idea.

Of course, in order to appease these people, he still raised the treatment for these people to the level of the Zhou family's main family, and didn't need them to undergo assessment like the monks of the main family.

At the same time, he privately selected some of the treasures obtained from the confiscation of the treasure houses of Cangyuan Immortal City this time, and filled them into the treasure house of the Zhou family, so that these people could exchange them with family contribution points.

Speaking of which, the ransacking of the house this time also made Zhou Yang a windfall.

Just for the colorful spirit stones, he got a total of 1.56 million low-grade spirit stones and thirty-seven high-grade spirit stones.

As for other treasures such as medicine pills, magic tools, talismans, exercises, elixir and spirit mines, there are so many of them that they are filled with three storage rings, which are worth at least two to three million low-grade spirit stones.

That is to say, after completing this vote, he not only fully made up for the spirit stone materials invested in the Zhou family in the Far West, but also made a fortune.

The person who sent Zhou Yang and his party off was a foundation-builder from the Zhou family, but this person was just waiting outside the "Valley of Falling Demons". The thirty-six pieces of top-grade spirit stones were sent to the Zhou Family Foundation Establishment Cultivator by sending an imp to take them out of the "Valley of Falling Demons".

Thirty-six complete high-grade spirit stones can use the teleportation array three times. These spirit stones are kept in Zhou's house, which can be used as emergency reserve funds, and can also be used as a way to activate the teleportation array when Zhou Yang comes next time. use.

On the other hand, after returning to the world of cultivating immortals in the boundless sandy sea, those Zhou family foundation-building monks followed what Zhou Yang said before, and first wrote travel notes of what they saw and heard during this trip to the extreme west, and put them in the scripture storage pavilion and the school. It is for the monks of the whole family to read, and then they return to their original positions to resume work.

As for Zhou Yang, he called Zhou Guangxiang to the cave on Lingxi Peak to talk alone.

"Although this trip to the Far West was short, it must have opened your eyes to the vastness of the outside world. Let's talk about it and see what you think."

In the cave mansion, Zhou Yang brewed a cup of spiritual tea for himself and Zhou Guangxiang, and then picked up the tea while enjoying the fragrance of this special spiritual tea from the far west, while beckoning the nephew to talk about his impressions of the trip.

"If you want to talk about the biggest impression, just like what you said at the beginning, Uncle Jiu, the frog at the bottom of the well saw the vastness of the world outside the well, and it was extremely shocking!"

"Especially during the trip to the Jinyang Kingdom, after observing the huge glazed tiankeng, my nephew really intuitively realized the power of the Nascent Soul stage powerhouse, and also understood why Uncle Jiu must go to Liuyunzhou to practice in the world of cultivating immortals."

"I remember Uncle Jiu, you taught your nephew before, saying that how to improve the family monks' sense of identity and loyalty to the family, the best way is to give them a path to progress, let them know that as long as they are loyal to the family, they will pay enough for the family. With the help of the family, we can continue to improve and step into a higher realm through the help given by the family."

"My nephew only now understands Uncle Jiu's real intention to teach my nephew like this, and understands your good intentions!"

"You don't want to abandon the Zhou family, but you want to shoulder everything alone, and open up a road for the younger generations of the Zhou family to become immortals, a road full of hope and light to reach the sky!"

Zhou Guangxiang looked at Zhou Yang reverently, with an excited expression, full of admiration and worship, and boldly expressed his feelings in a tone full of passion.

Did you think so?

Zhou Yang looked at his nephew with adoring eyes like a fanboy in front of him, somehow secretly pleased in his heart.

The main reason he went to Liuyunzhou to practice in the Immortal Cultivation Realm was of course to improve his cultivation base and to find all kinds of spiritual things he needed more conveniently.

The second is to open a road to the outside world for the Zhou family, so that the younger generations of the Zhou family can walk out of the boundless sand sea like themselves, and see the vastness and splendor of the outside world.

As for resisting everything by one person and opening up a road to immortality for the younger generations of the family, this is purely Zhou Guangxiang's own imagination.

Perhaps when he becomes a fairy and becomes the queen, this can be said in this way.

But now, it's nothing to talk about in private, and if it gets out, I'm afraid it will become a laughing stock in the circle of high-ranking monks.

Now, in response to Zhou Guangxiang's overly imaginative answer, Zhou Yang didn't deny anything, but nodded slightly, expressing his own opinion.

"It's good that you understand these things. With the Zhou family's current power, this boundless sandy sea of ​​cultivating immortals has now become a cage that traps us. What we will do in the future is to break this cage and get in touch with the wider world outside. "

"Uncle Ninth, I can be the hammer to break this cage, but after getting out of the cage, whether the Zhou family can survive in the crueler world outside still depends on your own abilities."

"How to lead the family to survive and develop in an environment surrounded by strong people, Li Hong has done a good job in the Far West. This time, Fu Yun's mother and son have also returned together. You can learn about it through them. The Zhou family's experience over the years, draw useful experience and measures to help you optimize the family management method."

"You must have known about the previous wars between the Great Bright Immortal Palace and the Backlight League in the Far West. As far as I know, Uncle Nine, the battles between monks in the world's major immortal worlds are all similar to this. , in the future the Zhou family will walk out of the boundless sand sea to cultivate immortals, and they will definitely participate in the monk wars. You can organize more family monks to conduct large-scale war drills in the future and form a family tradition. In this way, if you really go out in the future, you can save a lot of blood .”

"This may also be the last time Uncle Jiu will teach you these things. In the future, the Zhou family will be completely entrusted to you!"

At the end of Zhou Yang's speech, he couldn't help but sigh softly, feeling reluctance, nostalgia, and a sense of relief.

With the higher cultivation base, more and more things to do on the cultivation level, he really doesn't have much free time to worry about family affairs.

At that time, he would rather learn a few more supernatural powers, or improve the skill of refining weapons and talismans, or even accompany Taoist companions to travel in the world of cultivating immortals, it is much better than worrying about these things.

The main reason is that doing the above-mentioned things is beneficial to his practice, and he can really benefit from it.

And worrying about family affairs is not only of no benefit to one's own practice, but may also kill the talents of younger monks in this area.

The Zhou family has developed to the present, and various systems have been perfected. Zhou Yang doesn't think that if he does it himself, he can do much better than Zhou Guangxiang.

As he said, the reason for restricting the Zhou family from going further lies in the geographical environment of the boundless sand sea and the world of cultivating immortals, which is not what he and the Zhou family are capable of changing.

That being the case, he can only withdraw temporarily and work hard to improve himself. After gaining the strength enough to break this shackle, he will lead the Zhou family to break through the shackles and enter a new world.

Before that, the Zhou family only needed to stabilize the internal situation, and in this regard, Zhou Yang believed that Zhou Guangxiang, a nephew, could fully do it.

Zhou Guangxiang already understood his heart at this time, and he understood and agreed with his choice.

Therefore, after listening to his last words of warning, Dang even got up and bowed deeply to him, and said solemnly and solemnly: "My nephew can only do my best to protect the family for Uncle Jiu and wait for Uncle Jiu." The day when Uncle King returns will come!"

"It is the return of enlightenment!"

Zhou Yang corrected a sentence.

Zhou Guangxiang quickly changed his words: "Yes, my nephew can only do my best to protect the family for Uncle Jiu, and wait for the day when Uncle Jiu will return!"

Then the uncle and nephew looked at each other and smiled, everything was kept silent.

Next, Zhou Yang didn't stay in the world of cultivating immortals in the boundless sand sea. After entrusting everything to Zhou Guangxiang, he took his apprentice Lu Xuewei and five young Zhou family monks to the world of cultivating immortals in Liuyunzhou.

When he left this time, Zhou Yang left the magic weapon "Illusory Cloud Boat" to Zhou Guangxiang, so that it would be convenient for Zhou family monks to cross the Duanyun Mountains to the world of cultivating immortals in Liuyunzhou in the future.

In the future, unless there is a major event in the world of cultivating immortals in the boundless sand sea, something that Zhou Yang has to come back to solve, otherwise he will not come back easily, and the task of connecting the two places can only be handed over to Zhou Guangxiang and the others. to bear.

The two uncles and nephews have already negotiated that every 30 to 50 years, people will go to Liuyunzhou Immortal Cultivation World to find him and report some of the family's situation, and take away from him all kinds of spiritual objects purchased for the family.

Without the Magical Artifact "Illusory Cloud Boat", Zhou Yang took many people across the Duanyun Mountain Range at one time, and it was really dangerous. On the way, he bumped into monsters that appeared suddenly several times.

Fortunately, he has a strong spiritual sense, so he can always spot the figure of the monster in advance, or take it down brazenly, or turn to avoid it in time, and finally nothing happens.

After arriving in the world of cultivating immortals in Liuyunzhou, Zhou Yang separated from his apprentice Lu Xuewei when he was in Zhenyue Immortal City.

It was already inconvenient for Lu Xuewei to appear in the territory of the "Liuyun Merchant Alliance", so Zhou Yang asked her to take the five Zhou family descendants with her to settle in Xianyang City first, waiting for his next arrangement.

He himself went straight to Liuyun Immortal City.

When he arrived outside Liuyunxian City, Zhou Yang, who changed his appearance into a monk from the Far West, found out that the Guo family had issued a warrant for him, but the appearance on the warrant was the same as the last time he disguised himself look after.

The Guo family is not stupid. They guessed that he might have changed his appearance, so Lu Xuewei's portrait was also attached to the arrest warrant, and information about the magic weapon and magical powers he used in the battle outside "Yanyun Mountain" was also attached. write on it.

It's a pity that this kind of arrest warrant that doesn't even have the specific name of the person wanted is more symbolic than practical, and it's strange to be able to find the person.

When the Emperor Beast Sect wanted Zhou Yang, he posted all kinds of information about him on the arrest warrant. Just like that, it was just luck to catch him once.

After all, the world of cultivating immortals is too big, the number of cultivators is too large, and the mobility is even greater.

Unless you have the blood, hair, etc. of the wanted person, and then use various secret methods to track them down, otherwise, if you want to find someone by issuing a wanted warrant, you are really looking for a needle in a haystack. Whether you can find someone depends on luck.

But just in case, Zhou Yang was still not in a hurry to meet Taoist companion Xiao Ying, but after advising her that he was safe through the "Spiritual Rhinoceros Jade Pendant", he started shopping in Liuyun Immortal City.

When he came this time, he brought all the twenty-three spiritual fruits from the Zhou Family's "Condensing Yuan Fruit" tree, which were all used to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill.

As for the refining of dozens of furnaces of Foundation Establishment Pill, even if there are main materials, the auxiliary materials required are not available in ordinary places.

Fortunately, he is now in Liuyun Immortal City, a place where most of the spiritual things in the world of cultivating immortals can be bought with spirit stones.

Hundreds of thousands of low-grade spirit stones were sprinkled, and he purchased a full thirty copies of auxiliary materials for refining the foundation pill.

Because monks from sect families from all over the world of cultivating immortals in Liuyunzhou often come to Liuyunxian City to purchase bulk materials, Zhou Yang's purchase of materials for refining foundation building pills in large quantities did not arouse any suspicion.

His cultivation at the golden core stage is enough to make many people with ulterior motives dare not have any bad thoughts.

If it wasn't for the fact that he didn't want to make high-profile troubles now, Zhou Yang would have even wanted to post a message asking for a lot of money to buy "Yuye Jindan" on "Yi Gemstone" in the central business district of Liuyunxian City.

You must know that he is carrying close to five million low-grade spirit stones with him now!

The "Yi Gemstone" is a special magic weapon. If a cultivator needs some treasure and cannot buy it through normal channels, he can pay a certain usage fee and enter the name of the thing he wants and the price he is willing to pay into it. , so that as long as someone is willing to make a move, he can learn the contact information left by the person who is looking for treasure through the "Yi Gem" watchman, and contact the transaction by himself.

It's just because there is no guarantee for this kind of transaction. Once you choose to make a private transaction, you will be in danger of being killed and seized if you are not careful.

Now Zhou Yang just wants to find a quiet place to learn the "Canglong Body Training Art" and several other supernatural powers. After he has done these things well and his strength has greatly increased without fear of any monks of the same realm, he will naturally come to Liuyun again A trip to Xiancheng, a lot of money to buy all the treasures you want.

After purchasing the items, Zhou Yang sent a message to Taoist Xiao Ying, asking her to go out of the cave to meet him, and then the two left Liuyun Xiancheng and rushed to Xianyang City together.

It's just that the two of them drove for a few days, and just after officially flying out of the territory of the "Liuyun Merchant Alliance", Zhou Yang suddenly stopped, looked at the Taoist beside him with a serious face and asked, "Ying'er, Did you really follow my instructions and come out without informing the Liu family?"

Xiao Ying and him have been a Taoist couple for many years, when she heard him ask this suddenly, she suddenly realized something, she couldn't help but her pretty face turned pale, she shook her head repeatedly and said: "No, since I received the news from you, my husband, my concubine has followed your advice. He said that he put the panacea refined recently for the Liu family and the entrance and exit tokens of the cave in the cave, and did not inform the Liu family of any news until he left."

"Since this is the case, Weifu understands, you should protect yourself with all your strength, and stay by Weifu's side. Don't leave the auspicious clouds under Weifu's feet."

Zhou Yang nodded slightly, explained a few words to the Taoist couple, then smiled coldly, and said solemnly: "Since there are people who are tired of life and want to die, let them be fulfilled!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to understand that he had discovered his whereabouts. Twenty or thirty miles away behind him, suddenly a white light flashed, and there appeared an ugly big man with a hideous knife scar on his right cheek.

Although this ugly man looks ugly, his cultivation base is actually the seventh level of the golden core, and his unique appearance, after seeing it, Zhou Yang also felt a little familiar.

After he thought about where this sense of familiarity came from, he couldn't help squinting his eyes and asked, "Your Excellency is Wu who once bloodbathed the Fallen Star Sect and looted the Red Moon City, and was given the nickname [Tattooed Rentu]." Biao?"

"Tattooed Human Slaughter" Wu Biao, whose true origin is unknown, once slaughtered the Luoxingzong, a small sect with monks at the Golden Core Stage, who was in charge of it, and killed all the 708 disciples in the Luoxingzong's mountain gate at that time, and none of them escaped. .

Later, he sneaked into the Red Moon Fairy City, killed the monks guarding the Jindan period in the town of Red Moon Fairy, looted the entire fairy city, and killed hundreds of people.

These are just the two biggest evil deeds committed by "Tattooed Rentu" Wu Biao. I don't know how many other evil deeds he has committed, and he probably didn't count them himself.

This person is extremely vicious, and was jointly offered a reward by many powerful forces in the world of cultivating immortals in Liuyunzhou. The reason why Zhou Yang felt that this person looked familiar was that when he entered Liuyunxian City, he saw the arrest warrant for him from the Guo family by the way. A wanted warrant for this person.

And if he remembered correctly, the value of this person's head was not much lower than his.

At this time, facing Zhou Yang's question, the earthworm-like scar on Wu Biao's face trembled slightly, and he looked at him sharply and replied: "Since you know me, you are still so calm, look at me. Come on, you are just like what they said, you can't be treated as an ordinary mid-stage Golden Core cultivator!"

them?

Zhou Yang was stunned for a moment, and then revealed a thoughtful expression.
