Cultivation Family: Starting by Taking a Concubine and Practicing the Sun and Moon Sutra

Even if it is the Zhou family, owning this spiritual vein will increase their income in the future, and more importantly, deepen the family's foundation.

Zhou Daocheng explored the surroundings and found that the three sides of Bailin Lake were surrounded by mountains. Only the northern forest had a road leading to Bailin Lake, which was the road the two took when they came.

Outside the northern forest, near the west, there is a very large wetland with a large number of green-winged herons.

On the shore of Bailin Lake, there are four or five small boats, only the size of two or three people, with a small and neat "Zhou" engraved on the oars.

When the head of the family came to check in advance, he brought a group of clansmen with him, but they were not cultivators, but some mortals in the clan.

Although Zhou Daocheng and the other two were asked to manage Bailin Lake, it was impossible for them to do everything by themselves. Their main task was still cultivation, and at most they needed to control the development direction of the island.

When the head of the family issued the task to the three people, he had already set the rules: if clansmen were needed to help, they could be hired at the market price.

Among the three, Zhao Yunzhi and Zhou Daobai asked for more than a dozen people for daily servants and simple tasks such as planting and harvesting.

Only Zhou Daocheng did not ask for any help.

After all, from the beginning, he used the excuse of coming to Bailin Lake to try to find a place that was hidden enough to develop secretly.

He had too many secrets to hide, whether it was the purple air green spirit bamboo, the "Wu Tu Kun Yue Gong" he practiced, or the array inheritance, they were not suitable for outsiders to know.

Besides, he did not plan to plant too many crops.

According to the requirements of the head of the family, 1,300 spirit stones need to be handed in every year, and he only needs to complete this indicator.

Zhou Daocheng found a small boat, said goodbye to Zhao Yunzhi, and rowed directly to the island in the distance.

As early as when he was in Tianchi Mountain, the ownership of the three islands had been allocated.

Zhou Daocheng chose the island with the worst conditions, the smallest area, the least number of spirit fields, and relatively poor resources, but the only advantage was that the location was relatively remote.

The other two islands are in the central area of ​​Bailin Lake. Not only is the terrain very flat and vast, but the surrounding fishery resources are also very rich, and the overall quality is much higher.

Only the island chosen by Zhou Daocheng is close to the southernmost part of Bailin Lake, very close to the mountains on the edge, and the location is very remote.

However, this also meets Zhou Daocheng's needs.

For Zhou Daocheng's choice, both the head of the family and the eldest brother Zhou Daobai are ten thousand incomprehensible.

Zhou Daobai privately approached him, wanting to run out of the richer central island, but Zhou Daocheng had a tough attitude and directly rejected this good intention.

He really has no interest in competing for the foundation-building quota and the position of the head of the family.

In his opinion, the eldest brother Zhou Daobai is definitely the most suitable candidate for the family. He is kind and kind, knows how to consider the overall situation when thinking about problems, and is also shrewd and cunning. He is excellent in all aspects, otherwise the elders of the family would not value him so much.

As for himself, it is safer to hide behind and slowly improve his strength.

Not long after, Zhou Daocheng rowed a boat to his own island.

The surrounding environment is extremely beautiful. Not far away are towering mountains, which are reflected in the water, which is green and refreshing.

The island is about 16 acres, which is not large in area, but the terrain is very flat. There are 8 acres of natural first-level low-grade spiritual fields, but there are no first-level medium-grade spiritual fields.

The three islands together have a total of 30 acres of first-level low-grade spiritual fields and 2 acres of first-level medium-grade spiritual fields, but most of them are distributed on the other two islands.

After walking around the island, I found that these 8 acres of spiritual fields are close together, concentrated on the north side of the island. This is mainly because the spiritual vein is in the center of the lake, which is the north side of the island.

The shapes of these spiritual fields are not regular and cannot be used directly at present. They need to be adjusted manually before they can be cultivated normally.

In the south of the island, there is a slightly raised hill with little undulations. It barely forms a relatively flat valley, which is just suitable for settling.

After clearing the weeds and trees around, Zhou Daocheng kept everything simple and built a simple residence for cultivation, which only had a kitchen, bedroom, and cultivation room, as well as a cellar of considerable size for storing moon wine.

Then the first thing he did was to quickly take out the purple-air green bamboo, find a fertile soil near the cultivation room, and replant it.

Because it was well protected and the quality of the purple-air green bamboo itself was high, it was not damaged too much, but its breath was slightly weaker.

After replanting, it will probably recover in no time.

Next, Zhou Daocheng should consider the future development of the island. After all, earning 1,300 low-grade spirit stones a year is not an easy task.

If you just plant the first-grade low-grade spirit valley, the annual income will certainly not be that high, and you may not even have a net income of 500 spirit stones.

Zhou Daocheng thought about it and found that almost all first-grade low-grade spirit plants could not earn 1,300 spirit stones in a year.

With a helpless sigh, he understood the master's idea: since the goal of 1,300 a year was set, it meant that he could not follow the routine and had to find other ways to make money on the basis of planting spiritual plants.

For example, he could process the spiritual plants again to increase their value and sell them for a higher profit.

And Zhou Daocheng happened to have a valuable economic crop in his hands - Yuehua Grass.

If it can be planted in a first-grade medium-quality spiritual field, the yield of Yuehua grass per mu can reach 500 jin, and it can brew 50 jin of Yuehua wine, which is worth 250 low-grade spiritual stones.

In two seasons a year, that one mu of spiritual field can produce 500 low-grade spiritual stones, and 8 mu is 4,000 spiritual stones, far exceeding the goal set by the head of the family.

But the biggest problem now is that he doesn't have 8 mu of good quality first-grade medium-quality spiritual fields!

"In the final analysis, it is still necessary to solve the problem from the formation! If the spirit gathering formation is arranged, then everything is not a problem."

Zhou Daocheng also sighed, the skills of cultivating immortals are really amazing, and the problems that ordinary cultivators can't solve with all their efforts can be easily solved in front of the formation master.

After thinking about it, Zhou Daocheng no longer hesitated. The way to solve all problems is to start with the formation, especially the spirit gathering formation.

...

After settling down, Zhou Daocheng officially began to learn the formation.

The vast amount of knowledge and the complicated and tedious process, even though he had a high level of comprehension and his mental power far exceeded that of other cultivators, he still had a splitting headache.

It took him three days to barely memorize all the key points of arranging the spirit gathering array.

Seven days later, he arranged it for the first time.

The materials for arranging the array had been purchased before when he was in the family, and it cost 50 low-grade spirit stones, which was not a small number.

So during the refining process, Zhou Daocheng was as careful as possible, for fear that mistakes would destroy the entire set of array materials.
