Cultivation Begins From The Desert

The Yuquan Peak, which is hundreds of meters high, has a strong spiritual energy as the height increases. Generally, it is enough for the Zhou clan to practice on the mountainside during the Qi training period. There are also comfortable palaces and pavilions for people to live in. There are also special facilities for food, clothing, housing and transportation. Secular people take care of.

Only monks in the foundation-building period would stay in the monk's cave on the top of Yuquan Peak and use the rich spiritual energy there to practice.

The entire Yuquan Peak is covered by a third-order mid-grade formation "Wanmu Qingtian Formation". Since this formation can absorb the spiritual energy of the grass and trees inside the formation to enhance its power, Yuquan Peak is from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, except for those opened up. Outside the Lingtian and Lingyao Garden, there are all kinds of tall trees, some of which are thousands of years old.

The canopies of these towering trees are connected together, blocking the sunlight, making the temperature in the mountains several degrees lower than outside the mountains, and there are bursts of cool mountain winds passing through the forest. cool.

Zhou Yang, who was dressed in fluttering white clothes, used his light-weight spells to climb up the mountainside, and quickly climbed along the stone steps carved out between the woods, and soon reached the top of the mountain.

The top of Yuquan Peak has been artificially trimmed and has become very flat. The area of ​​the top of the mountain is only tens of acres. Because of the strong spiritual energy on it, except for the three monks' caves built in three places, the rest of the places have been opened up as spiritual medicine fields. Planted with various grades of elixir.

When Zhou Yang walked here, the scent of medicine mixed with the aromas of various spiritual medicines wafted into the nostrils. One sip of it made one's spirits refreshed, and the whole body's mana movement accelerated a lot.

It is conceivable that if you can practice here all year round, the speed of practice will definitely be much faster than on the mountainside.

But that's simply not possible.

The Spirit Medicine Garden is an important place for the Zhou family. Many of the spirit medicines in it are cherished varieties that the Zhou family has cultivated for one or two hundred years. The loss of any one is enough to make the old patriarch Zhou Minghan feel distressed for decades.

Therefore, with the exception of the two second-order spiritual plant husbands in the clan, even a genius disciple of the clan, like Zhou Yang, who is much loved, is strictly forbidden to step half a step on the top of the mountain without being summoned by the clan leader.

And the top of the mountain is not for anyone who wants to set foot in it. This is the core area of ​​the formation eye of the "Wanmu Qingtian Formation". When the cultivator came, there was only one way to go.

"Zhou Yang, the younger son, was ordered to visit the old patriarch, and asked the elder to let him go."

He stood outside the formation on the top of the mountain, bowed his hands respectfully towards the area covered by the white fog of the formation in front of him, and gave a salute.

"It turned out to be Xiao Jiu. The patriarch has already explained it. Come in first."

An old voice came from the white fog, and then the white fog in front of Zhou Yang surged, revealing a safe passage for one person to walk.

Seeing this, Zhou Yang hurriedly thanked him and said, "My grandnephew thanked the seventh grandfather."

Then he followed the path all the way, and finally came to a white-haired old man sitting cross-legged under a tree dozens of meters tall.

The white-haired old man sitting cross-legged under this tree is named Zhou Yun, who has practiced Qi at the ninth level and is the fourth elder of the Zhou family. One of the second-order Lingzhi husbands.

The youngest of the Zhou family's "guang" cultivators are over 80 years old, and the fourth elder, Zhou Yun, is nearly 100 years old, which is very close to the 120-year-old lifespan of a qi-training cultivator.

Although the cultivator's fighting ability will not be reduced much due to the increase of age, generally speaking, those monks who are close to 100 years old in the major cultivating families who are close to the age of 100 will retire to the ancestral land of the family to spend their old age in peace, instead of encountering genocide. For a major event, no one will disturb them, the heroes who have served the family for most of their lives.

In particular, Zhou Yun was still a second-order spiritual plant husband, and let him live in seclusion on the top of the mountain, just to take care of the spiritual medicines in these dozens of acres of medicine gardens.

Seeing Zhou Yang approaching at this time, the old man waved his sleeves, and in front of him there was a tea table, a tea set, and a futon. Xiao Jiu, you are here to have a cup of tea with the old man, nagging nagging."

It is rare for the juniors of ordinary families to come to the top of the mountain. The patriarchs, who are higher than themselves, often retreat and practice. The old man usually stays alone on the mountain without even a word to speak, and he is too bored to panic.

Of course, I am very happy to see Zhou Yang, the most outstanding junior in the younger generation of the family, come here.

Most young people may not understand the psychology of the elderly, but Zhou Yang, who has been a man of two generations, understands it quite well, and is willing to chat more with these elderly people without interfering with the business. .

"It's not easy to drink a cup of the herbal tea made by Grandpa Seven on weekdays. Today, my grand-nephew needs to be full."

He smiled and went to sit on the futon, took the tea set and made tea.

Of course, immortal cultivators are different from mortals when they make tea. The flame used to make tea is transformed by mana. It only takes a moment to make the tea boil, and there will be no smell of fireworks.

After a pot of tea was brewed, Zhou Yang poured tea for the two of them, and couldn't wait to take up his cup of fragrant hot tea and drank it.

Ordinary people drink tea like this, and the hot tea might even burn their throats, but for immortal cultivators whose bodies have been tempered by mana, this temperature is the same as ordinary people drinking warm water, and it is nothing at all.

When the old man saw him drinking tea like this, not only did he not feel dissatisfied, but looked at him happily and asked with a smile, "How is it? Does this new medicinal tea make you satisfied?"

After asking, he didn't wait for Zhou Yang to answer, he also took a sip from the teacup, then closed his eyes with a look of enjoyment, and said in a smug tone: "This is the dryness of the second-order elixir [Xianyuncao] used by this old man. The leaves, plus the 20-year-old [white jade ginseng] ginseng whiskers, the first-order elixir [Scented Leaf Chrysanthemum] and other five kinds of elixir, are only prepared in a total of three or two. Even the tea used for making the tea is also The spirit dew just collected from those spirit medicines in the medicine garden this morning."

"It is indeed a good tea. No matter the taste or efficacy of this medicinal tea, Grandpa Seven is no worse than the spiritual tea that my grand-nephew had drunk before. If it can be produced in large quantities, it can provide an extra income for my Zhou family. what!"

Zhou Yang put down the teacup, silently felt the changes in the mana in his body, and sniffed the aroma of the medicine remaining between his lips, his face full of admiration.

When the old man heard his admiration, his face was filled with joy, and then he shook his head with depression and helplessness: "The old man also has this idea, but [Xianyuncao] is the one that refines the second-order spiritual pill [Xianyundan]. The main medicine, you can't just waste this kind of elixir just to make tea, right? If you only use the naturally withered leaves, the amount will be enough for the old man to drink!"

"this…"

Zhou Yang bowed his head in embarrassment, and decided not to pick up the old man.

There is only one second-tier alchemist in the family, and that is his father Zhou Xuanhao. Once the [Xianyuncao] matures, it will be used by his father for alchemy. If he dares to say that the spiritual grass is used to make tea, his father must slap him. He can't die.

"Hey, you're a sly little slicker, don't worry, is this old man the kind of person who doesn't care about the overall situation? I was just talking about it casually!"

The old man smiled, but he didn't know what Zhou Yang was thinking. He first spoke to him to comfort him, and then picked up some interesting things he had experienced when he was young and told him to help him resolve the embarrassment just now.

The two chatted like this. After chatting for about a quarter of an hour, the gate of the cave where the old patriarch practiced at the top of the mountain suddenly opened automatically, and the old and majestic voice of the old patriarch came from it: "Is Xiao Jiu here? Come in first."

Hearing this voice, the two people who were talking stopped together, and then Zhou Yang immediately stood up and cupped his hands to Zhou Yunyi: "Seventh grandfather, the grand nephew is going to see the old patriarch first."

"Go, go, don't let the old clan wait for a long time."

Saying goodbye to Zhou Yun, Zhou Yang walked directly through the open door of the cave, and soon saw the contemporary patriarch of the Zhou family, Zhou Minghan, a monk at the foundation-building period, in the training room deep in the cave.

Zhou Minghan is more than 150 years old this year, but his face looks much younger than Zhou Yun outside. His hair is not completely white, and his complexion is as ruddy as a baby.

This is normal. The lifespan of a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment period is more than two hundred years old. If there is no accident, Zhou Minghan will have at least four or five years of lifespan, and his cultivation base is high, so he naturally looks younger than Zhou Yun. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

When Zhou Yang saw Zhou Minghan, the patriarch of the Zhou clan was sitting cross-legged on the cold jade bed and meditating. He didn't dare to look at it too much. After he came in, he bowed deeply and paid homage, saying, "My grandson sees my great-grandfather."

Zhou Minghan, as the only surviving monk of the "Ming" generation in the Zhou family, and a foundation-building period, naturally became the great-grandfather of all the monks of the "Yuan" generation.

"Xuanhe has already sent a letter to the old man about your performance in [Yuyang Cave]. You have done a good job in this matter, Xiao Jiu, even though the old man was your age back then, compared to you in terms of the overall situation, it is still far away. Far better!"

Zhou Minghan on Hanyu's bed opened his eyes slightly and looked at Zhou Yang with undisguised admiration.

Zhou Yang heard the words and said in his heart that he was unhappy. The status will definitely rise again.

However, he was happy, but he didn't get carried away because of it, and quickly replied respectfully, "The great-grandfather is serious, the grandson just did what he should do, but he can't be praised by the great-grandfather."

"What a good thing to do! If every child of my Zhou family has Xiao Jiu, you are so sensible, why should the Zhou family be worried?"

Zhou Minghan couldn't help showing a happy smile on his face, obviously it was Zhou Yang's answer, he couldn't be more satisfied if he was satisfied.

He smiled and stretched out his hand, an invisible force dragged Zhou Yang's bowed body up.

"Come on, stand up straight and let this old man take a good look at my Zhou family's unicorn!"

As soon as the old patriarch was happy, he even shouted out the word "Qilin'er", which shows that he loves Zhou Yang as a junior.
