Cultivation Begins From The Desert

Although there are many forbidden places in [Kunxu Realm], there are only six or seven forbidden places where the sixth-level demon king sits in charge.

It took Zhou Yang about three months to kill the sixth-rank demon kings in the four forbidden areas, and collected all the treasures in the demon king's lair.

It's just that when he rushed to the fifth demon king, he found that other monks who had entered the Nascent Soul stage were already fighting with him. Seeing this, he could only stop and run to the sixth demon king.

But the sixth demon king didn't know if he had received some rumors in advance. When Zhou Yang arrived, his lair was empty and he disappeared.

[Kunxujie] It's not big, but it's not small at all. A sixth-level demon king wants to hide and escape, and Taoist Lan doesn't have the ability to find it out.

So Zhou Yang could only temporarily abandon the demon-slaying plan, and explored and searched some treasure places guarded by formations and puppets.

There are dozens of places where treasures are hidden in [Kunxu Realm], some of which even Lan Taoist has no right to enter. For example, the "Wanbao Building" that Zhou Yang visited last time is one of them.

Last time in the "Wanbao Building" Zhou Yang obtained the practice method of [Enlightenment Xuanzhen Fruit], the spiritual fruit of heaven and earth and the supernatural power [Xuantian Huo Leizhu], all of which helped him a lot in his practice. He came here first.

At this time, there were already many monks who came to the "Wanbao Building" to fetch treasures. After Zhou Yang and Qin Yueer arrived here, they did not rush in to search for treasures immediately, but looked at Qin Yueer and asked, "Yueer, are you here?" [Kunxu Realm] has practiced for 800 years, so I should have been here too, do you know where there are treasures hidden?"

Qin Yue'er heard the words, but replied with a troubled face: "Master Mingjian, although I have been here a few times and got some treasures from it, I really don't know where the treasures are hidden. I'm afraid even Senior Lan may not be there. Know."

"That's it..."

Zhou Yang looked at the continuous buildings in the mountains in front of him, pondered for a while, then nodded lightly and said: "It doesn't matter if you don't know, Yue'er, you just follow Zhou to protect yourself when you come down, it's about getting treasures." I will leave it to Zhou."

After speaking, he took the lead towards the building complex.

Flying is prohibited in the "Wanbao Building" area, but that is for Jindanqi monks. A Nascent Soul sixth-floor monk like Zhou Yang can forcefully fly in it with the power of the air-forbidden circle.

It's just that if you don't abide by the rules, it is likely to trigger attacks from other formations and cause trouble for yourself.

So if it is not necessary, he will not do this kind of thing because of a small loss.

He led Qin Yue'er all the way deep into it, and soon passed through the outer areas for Jindan stage monks to explore, and entered the inner treasure place.

The danger in this inner area is indeed far greater than that in the outer area. As soon as Zhou Yang entered it, a group of five stone figurine puppet soldiers suddenly rushed out from the mountainside and rushed towards him.

The aura emitted by these stone figurine puppets ranges from the early stage of Golden Core to the late stage of Golden Core. In the case of five stone puppet soldiers fighting together, it will be very difficult for the ninth-level monks of the Golden Core to cope.

But this time they found the wrong opponent.

Zhou Yang didn't even need to sacrifice any magic weapon, he punched several dragon-shaped fists with his fists, blasting those stone puppets into ashes.

Stone warrior puppets, stone monsters, stone knights...

In the mountainside of the inner area, it seems that some emperor's mausoleum is buried. Every time Zhou Yang travels a certain distance, there will be these dead puppets blocking the way.

These stone figurine puppets were obviously refined by monks in ancient times using special techniques, and their individual strength was far inferior to that of monks and monsters in the realm, or even puppets refined by immortal cultivators today.

But I can't stand the number of stone puppets!

Today's cultivators refine a fifth-order puppet, and the value of various materials consumed will cost at least five or six hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones. This is only the cost of materials. is difficult to measure.

However, these stone figurine puppets, which were easily destroyed by Zhou Yang, were all made of humble stones, and what was used to drive them to fight was not spirit stones, but a jade core carved with mysterious and complex spirit patterns.

The jade core, combined with the spirit pattern engraved on the stone puppet, can absorb the aura of heaven and earth and store it in it for use in the actions and battles of the stone puppet, and it will also self-destruct after the stone puppet is destroyed.

Zhou Yang didn't know how much spiritual stone materials those ancient monks needed to make such a stone puppet, but it would definitely be much lower than the current puppet, otherwise they wouldn't be so extravagant to make a large number of such stone puppets to guard the cave.

He also tried to imprison the stone puppets with magical powers, trying to research the method of making such puppets.

It's a pity that the jade core in the stone figurine puppet's body will collapse on its own as soon as it touches the monk's consciousness, and it cannot be used for research at all.

After trying a few times, Zhou Yang put out his thoughts and didn't bother to do such useless work anymore.

After traveling in the inner area for more than half a day, he finally found a target worth shooting.

It was a cave mansion covered by the light curtain of the cyan formation. From the outside, the cave looks very large, occupying a small half of the hilltop. Because of the cover of the light curtain of the formation technique, everything inside cannot be seen from the outside.

After Zhou Yang studied outside for a while, he found that the formation of this cave was hardly damaged, which means that the monks who came here in the past could not enter it, and the treasures inside may not have been taken away.

He came here to hunt for treasure, of course he didn't want to spend all his efforts to break through the protection of the formation, but in the end he was in vain.

So after discovering this cave with intact guarding formations, he decided to use it for surgery.

To deal with this ancient formation, most monks have only one way, and that is to forcibly break the formation.

After Zhou Yang decided to make a move, he asked Qin Yue'er to step aside to guard himself, and then summoned an avatar outside his body to attack the cave guard formation together with him.

Since this cave has not been raided by others for so many years, the protective formation is naturally the strongest.

Zhou Yang just attacked outside, which caused a counterattack from the formation.

The counterattack of the formation came quite suddenly. As soon as Zhou Yang and the avatar outside his body sacrificed their magic weapon to attack the light curtain of the formation, countless sharp wind blades shot out from the cyan light curtain, attacking him and the avatar outside him. The location forms a cover strike.

Because of the existence of the air-forbidden circle, Zhou Yang and the avatar outside his body had no time to dodge this wave of attacks, so they could only use their own means to protect themselves and retreat.

Fortunately, he had a good magic weapon in his hand, and even though the formation counterattack was fierce, it was not beyond the range of his response. After a while of panic, he quickly stabilized his position.

With this lesson learned, Zhou Yang will be more cautious in the future, and he will not forget to protect himself when attacking.

Fortunately, among Taoist Lan's hidden treasures, he refined a wood attribute sixth-level low-grade defensive magic weapon [Iron Wood Shield] for his external incarnation, and a pure defensive weapon made of [Wannian Iron Wood] At this time, the avatar can safely hide behind the magic weapon and envoy [Jiamu Leiyuan Card] to output.

It is worth mentioning that during the more than 100 years of Zhou Yang's retreat, his incarnation outside the body has not been idle, but is also studying the method of fusing "Jiamu Shenlei" and "Yimu Shenlei" in retreat.

Although we haven't found a feasible way to combine the two kinds of wood attribute lightning into one, we have also researched a secret technique that can increase the power of "First Wood Thunder" The power of the "Jiamu Shenlei" displayed increased by 30% out of thin air.

It's a pity that this kind of secret technique can only be used by his external avatar, because apart from his external avatar refined with special materials, other wood attribute kung fu monks don't have this condition at all.

Zhou Yang and the others made a lot of noise here, not to mention the inner area, even those monks hunting for treasure outside could hear the roar and powerful mana fluctuations coming from here.

Soon after, a Nascent Soul monk from the same inner area came over to investigate the situation.

It's just that when the monk who came to investigate the situation saw him from a distance, he backed away like a snake and a scorpion, not daring to come again.

Obviously, it was the monk who had recognized him as the famous [Gen Yang Daoist], and retreated voluntarily because of his reputation.

In the following two months, several Yuanying stage monks were attracted by Zhou Yang's movement to check the situation, and without exception, they were the same as the first person who came here, and retreated immediately after recognizing his identity up.

Just kidding, he used to be at the second level of Nascent Soul, and he was able to kill the [Blood Cloth Patriarch] at the sixth level of Nascent Soul.

Now, the mana aura of the sixth level of the Nascent Soul is revealed without any concealment. Unless he is a monk at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul, a "half-step true immortal" monk, no Nascent Soul cultivator would dare to compete with him for treasures.

And it's not so much that those Nascent Soul cultivators were driven away by his reputation, it's better to say that they were scared away by the speed of his cultivation.

It's only been a few years since the catastrophe in the world of cultivating immortals in Beitingzhou. It is widely rumored that he, who was only at the second level of Yuanying at that time, had already advanced to the sixth level of Yuanying.

Such an astonishing speed of practice really frightened those who were also in the Nascent Soul stage.

If it weren't for knowing that it was impossible, those Nascent Soul stage monks who saw his current cultivation base would have wondered if he had been taken away by someone, otherwise how could his cultivation base improve so quickly!

Zhou Yang, who was at the sixth level of the Nascent Soul, and the rumored seventh-tier immortal artifact [Suzaku Fan], this combination made any Nascent Soul cultivator wise not to conflict with him when he saw him.

Unknowingly, Zhou Yang's status in the "Spiritual Realm" has been elevated to an extremely high level by many monks of the same rank, to the point where most Nascent Soul stage monks feel awe when they see him .

It took more than five months before and after. Zhou Yang finally broke the target cave guard formation without any interference and entered the real cave.

Hard work always pays off, and the hard work of more than five months has paid off Zhou Yang generously.

The half of the mountain that was originally thought to be a cave, turned out to be not a cave, but a spiritual nursery and medicine field full of aura.

Due to the long-term lack of care, most of the elixir that had been planted in the Lingpu medicine field had exhausted their lifespan and withered to death, but the small number of elixir that survived were all six-year-old elixir with an age of more than 10,000 years. Tier elixir.

[Ten Thousand Years Vermilion Fruit], [Purple Star Grass] with a medicinal age of more than ten thousand years, [Ten Thousand Years Golden Jade Ginseng], [Ten Thousand Years Longevity Vine], [Ten Thousand Years Wind Spirit Grass]...

The extremely rare sixth-order elixir was placed in front of Zhou Yang's eyes, waiting for him to pick it.

Even though he had seen many such rare and elixir medicines in Taoist Lan's private spiritual garden before, he was a little dizzy and dazzled at this time, and didn't know where to start.

call!

Zhou Yang took a long breath, suppressed the joy and excitement in his heart, and carefully picked these rare elixir plants one by one.

These elixirs have different types and properties, and the utensils used for storage must also be differentiated. Some are suitable for storage in jade boxes with warming yang attributes, some can only be stored in high-level spiritual wood medicine boxes, and some need to be stored in ice-cold medicine boxes. The attribute jade box is sealed.

Fortunately, Zhou Yang has these utensils on his body all year round, so there is no need to worry about the loss of the potency of the elixir due to the lack of suitable utensils at this time.

After picking all the mature elixirs that could be picked locally, Zhou Yang chose to transplant the remaining elixirs that did not meet the requirements for refining sixth-level elixirs but were also thousands of years old.

There is also a medicine field in his [Dong Xuanzhu]. After these elixir medicines are transplanted and planted in it, there is no need to worry about any problems in a short period of time.

After working like this for several days, Zhou Yang finally finished harvesting the entire spiritual garden. After checking again and again, he made sure that there was nothing to harvest here, and then rushed to the next place where the treasure was hidden.

Two years later, Zhou Yang, who had harvested a lot in various places in the [Kunxu Realm], returned to the [Holy Infant Valley].

At this time, Taoist Lan has almost refined the puppet, and all the preparations before leaving can already be started.

After two months of busy work like this, Lan Taoist adjusted the puppet, and after confirming that the puppet could open and close the [Kunxu Realm] on his behalf, he personally helped Zhou Yang transplant the [Holy Infant Fruit] tree to the [Dong Xuanzhu] Inside.

In order to ensure the survival of the [Holy Infant Fruit] tree and the normal growth of the five immature [Holy Infant Fruits] on the tree, Zhou Yang even smashed a top-grade earth attribute spirit stone and buried it at the root of the tree. Next, provide it with enough aura nutrients.

"Okay, there are still three days before [Kunxu Realm] is closed. Lan has already set instructions for the puppet. When the time is up, it will activate the magic circle to send you out. Now it's time for Lan to sleep."

In [Holy Infant Valley], Taoist Lan nodded to Zhou Yang after everything was packed, and then directly lay down in the [Ghost Coffin] that Zhou Yang traded to him 800 years ago.

As a clone puppet specially refined by the "immortals outside the sky" to guard the [Kunxu Realm], even if Taoist Lan has his own independent personality by chance, it is not so easy to leave the [Kunxu Realm].

He himself cannot use [Kunxu Ling] to leave here, and he cannot even be taken away by ordinary storage rings or "Cave Heaven Magical Artifacts". The secret treasure made can help him completely cut off the internal and external connections and avoid the restrictions imposed on him by the [Kunxu Realm] magic circle.

This is also the most important reason why he made that deal with Zhou Yang at that time.

At this moment, Zhou Yang waited for Taoist Lan to hide in the [Nether Dark Coffin], waved it into the storage ring, and waited patiently with Qin Yueer for the time to leave.
