Cultivation Begins From The Desert

Chapter 16: : 7 Grandpa's Shock

After leaving the Shuwu Hall, Zhou Yang went straight to the top of Yuquan Peak.

The monk stationed on the top of the mountain is still the seventh grandfather Zhou Yun. The old man sat under the tall [Dragon Scale Tree] on the top of the mountain as always. When he saw Zhou Yang coming up, he forced him to sit down and taste his new medicinal tea. .

The elders invited him so warmly, so Zhou Yang naturally couldn't refuse. Besides, he really liked the herbal tea made by the elders.

However, when he was drinking tea with the old man this time, his eyes were mostly on the [Dragon Scale Tree] beside him.

[Dragon Scale Tree] is a very rare special spiritual wood, named for the scales that grow on the tree like dragon scales.

The scales of the hundred-year-old [Dragon Scale Tree] are black, as hard as fine iron, and can be used to refine a first-order defensive magic weapon, which is a first-order spiritual wood.

[Dragon Scale Tree] that is more than 500 years old, the scales of the tree will turn into silver-gray, and the hardness is higher than that of black iron.

If the [Dragon Scale Tree] can grow for more than a thousand years, the scales will turn silver. At that time, the scales can be used to refine the third-order defensive magic weapon, which is the third-order spiritual wood.

It is said that once the age of the [Dragon Scale Tree] exceeds 5,000 years, the scales of the tree will become golden like the real dragon scales, which can be used to refine the fifth-order defensive instruments. Steal treasure.

The Zhou family's [Dragon Scale Tree] is about 800 years old, and it is not far from becoming a third-order spiritual wood. When Zhou Yuquan, the ancestor of the Zhou family, discovered Yuquan Peak, this spiritual wood grew on the mountain.

Since then, every ten years or so, the Zhou family will take a few tree scales from the [Dragon Scale Tree] and use it to refine it into a magical tool. The main material of Zhou Yang's [Silver Shield] magical tool is one piece Scales taken from a tree.

In the past, although Zhou Yang knew the origin of this tree, he had seen many hundred and thousand-year-old giant trees on the mountain. He didn't have much feeling for this spiritual wood that looked like a pine tree.

In his eyes at that time, the value of this second-order spirit tree was far less than that of the second-order spirit fruit trees "Huojing Jujube Tree" in the spirit orchard on the mountain.

At least the "Huojing Jujube Tree" can bear fruit every five years. For a cultivator below the late stage of Qi training who practiced masculine techniques like this, the benefits of eating a single jujube are worth ten days of hard work, let alone ten days of hard work. The jujubes also tasted fantastic, far superior to any fruit he had eaten in his previous life.

But now that he has become an artifact refiner, the value of [Dragon Scale Tree] in Zhou Yang's eyes has soared.

"Hehehe, Xiao Jiu, do you also want to play this [Dragon Scale Tree]? It's not that the old man looks down on you, although you are already a second-order refiner, but the tree scales of this [Dragon Scale Tree] are still not in your turn. You use it. Each piece of these tree scales falls into the hands of the old patriarch. It is a second-order high-grade magic weapon. Even if the old man values ​​you again, he will not let you waste these treasures in vain. Wait until you become a second-order It's almost the same time as a top-grade refiner!"

Seeing that Zhou Yang's eyes were always looking at the [Dragon Scale Tree], the old man Zhou Yun still didn't know what he was thinking.

For the elderly, it is also a very fulfilling thing to see such an outstanding younger generation as Zhou Yang shriveled.

Just a few seconds after the smile on the old man's face bloomed, he was shocked by Zhou Yang's next words.

"Seventh grandfather said that with the strength of the second-order middle-grade artifact refiner of the grand-nephew, it is indeed not enough to use the scales of the [Dragon Scale Tree] to refine the artifact. When you are promoted to the second-order high-grade, it is not too late to start refining when you have enough confidence."

"What? Your artifact refining technique has broken through to the second-rank middle grade!"

The old man Zhou Yun looked at Zhou Yang with a shocked face, his voice was a little out of tune.

Didn't you say that this kid only became a second-order low-grade craft refiner last year?

How come it has only been a year since he became a second-tier middle-grade craftsman?

Could it be that the old patriarch quietly went down the mountain to give him a make-up lesson?

The old man looked at the young junior in front of him in shock, feeling that his brain was not enough.

Could it be that in addition to being a genius in cultivation, this young generation also has a talent for refining weapons?

Otherwise, in less than five years, why did you change from a layman who doesn't understand anything to a second-tier middle-grade craftsman?

If he remembered correctly, even the old patriarch, the third-rank high-grade craftsman with the most talent for crafting in the history of the clan, spent a lot of time in going from a beginner to becoming a second-rank middle-grade craftsman. Twelve years!

"Seventh grandpa? Seventh grandpa?"

Zhou Yang looked at the old man Zhou Yun, who was shocked by the news revealed in his own words, and said in his heart that it was a lie.

After all, a twenty-two-year-old second-rank middle-grade craftsman is indeed something to brag about, not to mention the Zhou family, a foundation-building family with a family history of only more than two hundred years, that has passed down more than two thousand in the sect In the Huangshamen of 2010, this speed is enough to rank among the top few in history.

Even he himself never thought that his talent for refining would be so good.

Originally, when he was a first-order craft refiner, he didn't show anything unusual, but after being promoted to second-order craftsman, he only realized that he was in the most critical metal when he needed to use several materials to mix and refine magic tools. It has an excellent control ability in the control of the amount of the solution and the control of the fire temperature.

Later, comparing the deeds of other artifact refiners recorded in the artifact refining books, as well as the artifact refining experience notes given by the old patriarch, he found that his talent in this area was several times stronger than that of most artifact refiners of the same level. .

If it weren't for the fact that his cultivation was still poor, and he didn't have the materials for refining second-order high-grade artifacts, he felt that he could try to make second-order high-grade artifacts now.

"Is Xiao Jiu here? Come to the cave, the old man just has something to explain to you."

The greeting from the old patriarch Zhou Minghan was regarded as a timely relief for the embarrassed old man Zhou Yun. I saw that the old man's tense face was relieved because he was too shocked, and his face relaxed and said quickly: "Xiao Jiu, did you hear it? The old patriarch is calling you, hurry up and don't let his old man wait for you."

Seeing it through but not saying it, it's still a good grandson.

Of course, Zhou Yang wouldn't really embarrass the old man just because of his anger. When he saw this, he forced a smile and bowed to the old man to say goodbye. He strode briskly towards the old patriarch Zhou Minghan's cave.

"Hey, old, old, can't keep up with the pace of young people!"

Under the [Dragon Scale Tree], the old man looked at Zhou Yang's leaving back, and couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.

However, this sigh only lasted for a few seconds, and the expression on the old man's face changed, and his face instantly turned red, and his eyes were full of light and he laughed: "Hahaha, the young people today are really amazing, twenty A two-year-old second-tier middle-grade craftsman, tsk tsk tsk, I didn’t expect my old man to see such a genius in my Zhou family, God bless my Zhou family, God bless the Zhou family!”

For a family elder like Zhou Yun who has worked hard for the family all his life, there is probably nothing that makes him happier than seeing outstanding juniors in the family.

Those big families with Jindan stage ancestors and even Yuanying stage great cultivators who have inherited hundreds of thousands of years may have internal fights due to things such as disputes between descendants and resource allocation issues, and the secret fights will not stop.

But for a small family like the Zhou family that has only been passed down for five or six generations, the family history is less than three hundred years, and there is only one foundation-building cultivator to support the facade, the only way to unite and unite is to unite the strength of all people in one place. Concentrating all resources to cultivate talented children with foundation building qualifications in a few families is the only right way.

Think about it, under the circumstance that buying a "Foundation Pill" will deplete the savings of the whole family, if the family fights again to divide factions, then the final result will definitely be that no one will be able to build the foundation, which will eventually lead to the death of the entire family. Inheritance is cut off.

Cultivators have a lifespan far beyond that of ordinary people, and their wisdom is far beyond that of ordinary people. Of course, they would not make such stupid mistakes.

Under such a big environment, even if there is someone who is greedy for profit and wants to harm the public and private, if they are discovered, they will definitely be attacked by other groups to correct the family rules.

Therefore, seeing Zhou Yang as such an outstanding descendant, even if he is not his own direct descendant, Zhou's elders like Zhou Yun, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com are also greatly relieved and happy from the bottom of their hearts.

The stronger the family is, the better their younger generations will be, the more resources they will acquire in the future, and the more likely they will be to build foundations. The reason is that simple.

On the other side, after Zhou Yang entered the cave mansion on the top of the mountain and saw the old patriarch Zhou Minghan again, before he could salute, the old patriarch took him directly to his refining room.

"I heard what you said outside just now. Now you make a second-order mid-grade magic weapon and show it to me. Tell me what materials you want, and I have opened a supply for you!"

The old patriarch Zhou Minghan deserves to be the leader of the clan. He speaks with confidence. In his eyes, the second-order spiritual items that the monks in the ordinary Qi training period smash their heads and compete for are like Chinese cabbage, which can be opened for supply.

What else does Zhou Yang have to say?

Of course, just roll up your sleeves and start dry.

In this way, after wasting three materials in a row, he succeeded in refining a second-order mid-grade magic weapon Feijian in the fourth refining.

"Not bad, your artifact refining skills have really improved a lot. Even if you put this flying sword in those shops in the market, it will still meet the standard. It seems that your artifact refining talent is much higher than the old man originally expected. ."

After the old patriarch inspected Zhou Yang's newly refined magic weapon, the flying sword, he, who has always been unsmiling in front of other clan juniors, couldn't help but show a happy smile this time.

The old man was in a happy mood, and naturally he was given a reward. He stretched out his hand and said to Zhou Yang with a smile: "Now you come to see the old man's forging tools, and use the [Golden Rat] mouse skin and rat that you obtained at the beginning. Take the teeth out and give them to the old man, this time I will refine two second-grade high-grade magic weapons for you, one for attack and one for defense, which is a reward for you to become a second-grade artifact refiner.”
