Cultivation Begins From The Desert

The successful advancement of the Gripen Beast means that the Zhou family has added another Zifu battle strength.

When this big event happened, Zhou Yang naturally couldn't care about the preaching ceremony, and even if he waved the elder Zhou Guangxiang to replace him to answer the monks behind him, he flew directly to the top of the Red Tiger Mountain.

When he reached the top of the mountain, he saw the griffin pecking off the feathers on its wings one by one.

"This is……"

Zhou Yang was slightly taken aback when he saw this scene.

Then he seemed to remember something, and muttered to himself: "Is this about moulting? It seems that this step-up has indeed brought you a lot of benefits!"

Ordinary birds molt every year, but the feathers of demon birds are tempered with mana all the year round, so they are extremely hard and rarely need molting.

Once the demon birds start moulting, there is only one reason, that is, their original feathers cannot keep up with the improvement of their strength, so they need to remove the old feathers and replace them with new feathers that match their own strength.

The promotion of the griffin from the third rank to the fourth rank is not only as simple as condensing the demon pill from the third rank to the fourth rank, but also fundamentally breaks the shackles of the griffin's bloodline and improves its bloodline level from the bloodline level.

So it now needs to remove the feathers grown from the previous lower bloodline and replace it with the new feathers grown from the higher bloodline.

"Wait, these feathers are all high-quality refining materials, you give me a good peck, and slowly peck them down one by one, and if one is broken, I will personally pluck the hair out for you!"

Zhou Yang suddenly let out a loud cry, so frightened that the beak of the eagle lion beast that was pecking feathers shook, and it directly pecked the meat wing next to it, and pecked out a fist-sized blood hole.

This time, the pain was so severe that he couldn't help but turn around and look at Zhou Yang sadly.

When Zhou Yang saw this, he was instantly enraged, and he couldn't help but smile and said, "Hey, you **** haven't seen you for a few years, but you are good at wisdom, and you know how to sell miserable sympathy!"

After he finished speaking, he jumped directly onto the griffin, and really pulled out the feathers on the wings of the griffin by himself.

This job is probably not enough to replace the ordinary monks of the Zifu period. After all, those feathers are connected with the flesh and blood of the griffin, and the flying swords are not easy to cut off.

However, Zhou Yang's "Canglong Body Refinement Technique" has become the first level of entry, and his arms are powerful, so little things like plucking hair are not a problem at all.

This time, Zhou Papi directly turned into Zhou Pa Mao!

When all the feathers on the wings of the griffin were pulled off, it was already covered in blood, and it looked extremely terrifying.

However, Zhou Yang knew that this was just terrifying to look at. In fact, it was just a few flesh wounds that would soon recover.

Sure enough, not only did the grippy beast with demonic blood on its fleshy wings show no signs of pain, but after Zhou Yang plucked off the last feathers on its body, it stood up abruptly, raised its neck, and let out an eagle cry full of joy. Voice.

I saw one pair of wings, and on top of the pair of fleshy wings with demonic blood flowing, it was immediately visible to the naked eye that light blue feathers were quickly drilled out. The speed gradually slowed down.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Yang's eyes lit up again and again, and he was amazed.

He knew that the Gripen, whose mana attribute was wind and fire, did not have such a powerful regeneration ability.

The reason why he can grow a feather so quickly now is all because of the law of heaven.

However, even if the laws of heaven are favored and added, it will take a long time for these newly-born feathers to fully stabilize.

He waited for the feathers on the griffin to stop growing, and with a wave of his hand, he took out a large piece of hard frozen turtle meat from the storage ring and threw it in front of the griffin: "This fifth-order monster meat is right. Your advanced reward, as long as you faithfully protect my Zhou family in the future, the benefits will not be without you."

The turtle meat is the spiritual meat of the fifth-order monster "Genshan Turtle". Zhou Yang kept it in the storage ring. He originally wanted to keep it as food for the adult Golden-winged Thunder Eagle in the future. Lion beast.

And the griffin just finished its advanced level, and it was just when it needed to eat a lot to grow its body. At this time, after seeing the fifth-order monster meat exuding rich spiritual energy, it didn't care whether the meat was hard or not. , when even pounced on the frozen turtle meat on the ground.

For the next three months, the griffin will take several third-order essence pills from Zhou Yang every two or three days. and strength.

At this time, the griffin's wings spread out to nearly fifteen or sixty feet wide, and its front and back body was more than eighty feet long, and it really became a behemoth.

In the past, this griffin was used by Zhou Yang as a camel to carry people. At that time, if you squeezed it, it was enough to transport 20 or 30 people at a time.

Now, the Gripen's carrying capacity is undoubtedly more powerful, and it is more than enough for fifty people to stand on the wide lion's back.

The surge is not only in size, but also in strength.

Thanks to the savage beast heart that Zhou Yang gave him, after advancing to the fourth-order monster, the griffin not only awakened several natural powers of wind and fire, but also mastered the skills of savage beasts and savage birds. Universal talent supernatural power "Rage".

In this way, with the excellent wind and fire spells, as well as the powerful demon body, although the griffin has just advanced successfully, its combat power is completely comparable to that of any early Zifu cultivator.

Of course, an outlier like Zhou Yang doesn't count.

Originally, the promotion of the griffin beast to the fourth-order monster is worthy of the Zhou family's celebration.

However, Zhou Yang thought that the big auction that the Zhou family was planning to hold would be held in less than a year, so he put out his mind and concentrated on preparing for this event.

The news about this big auction has spread throughout almost the entire boundless sand sea cultivation world, but all the monks who are not completely closed to the news have heard that there will be an auction of the foundation pills at this big auction.

Therefore, although there is still more than half a year before the official holding time of the big auction, many monks have already embarked on the journey to the oasis of Chihu Mountain in advance.

A large number of monks rushed to the Chihu Mountain Oasis, which is of course a good thing for the Zhou family, because as long as these people come, more or less they will not return empty-handed. At that time, Zhou Jiaguang can collect the "head tax" in the market. to a small sum.

It's just that a large number of monks gather, it is easy to cause a quarrel and fight, and it is easy to provoke the peeping of sand bandits, intercepting and killing those monks who came to the oasis of Chihu Mountain along the way.

Zhou Yang naturally didn't want such a thing to happen, so as not to ruin his reputation and scare away the monks who came from afar.

Therefore, under his order, the newly formed Zhantang cultivators of the Zhou family were divided into three teams to patrol several main roads leading to the oasis of Chihu Mountain in order to protect the visiting cultivators from being plundered by the sand bandits.

In addition, the five patriarchs of the Zhuji family, such as Guo Shaoyang and Ma Xingrui, who were vassals of the Zhou family, were also recruited by Zhou Yang for a year, so that they would serve as mobile patrol cultivators to fight against the hidden sand bandits.

However, just when Zhou Yang was ambitious to make this big auction a once-in-a-millennium event in the boundless sand sea cultivation world, a bad news suddenly came.

After two hundred and fourteen springs and autumns, the only surviving elder of the Zhou family's "Xuan" generation, Zhou Yang's father Zhou Xuanhao, has died!

The normal life span of a foundation-building cultivator is 240 years old. Although there are not many foundation-building cultivators who can truly live to this age, most of the foundation-building cultivators who are naturally sedentary will survive until they are 230 years old. Not a problem.

For example, Zhou Minghan, the third-generation patriarch of the Zhou family, although this old patriarch committed suicide, his Shouyuan was over 230 years old before he committed suicide.

It's a pity that Zhou Xuanhao is different. He was in his 90s and successfully built a foundation without using a foundation pill. He became the first foundation-building cultivator in the Zhou family who did not use the foundation-building pill.

For him, this is certainly an honor worthy of being included in the Zhou family history, and it has greatly inspired future generations.

But he also hurt his vitality when he was building the foundation, and his lifespan would have been lower than that of a normal foundation-building cultivator.

Later, in the battle to destroy the demons that swept the entire boundless sand sea cultivator world, Zhou Xuanhao was unfortunately eroded by the demonic energy of the Zifu period demonic cultivator, which further damaged his vitality. To restore the meridians, this part of the damaged vitality could not be recovered.

These two damages to his vitality caused him to live only two hundred and fourteen years old, and then he died in the cave on Chihu Mountain.

As the only remaining cultivator of the Zhou family's "Xuan" generation, and the elder of the Zhou family's foundation building, Zhou Xuanhao's death naturally cannot be hastily buried in the Zhou family.

According to the Zhou family's clan rules, unless an elder dies, unless there is a war, the entire clan master must mourn in plain clothes, and he will also send people to each vassal family and befriending family to report the mourning for a month.

The Zhou family is now the first immortal cultivator family in the boundless sand sea cultivating world. Naturally, these rules cannot be neglected.

Therefore, the funeral should not only be done, but also a special event. It should be done well, so that all forces will send people to mourning. Only in this way can the influence of the Zhou family be shown, and the living Zhou clan will be more loyal and loving to the family. .

You must know that even in a big family like the Zhou family, most immortal cultivators have not cultivated to the Purple Palace period, but have cultivated to the Jindan period, and the Foundation Establishment period is almost the pinnacle of their dreams.

In such a situation that the cultivation base cannot be improved, most monks will turn to the pursuit of fame and fortune. The Zhou family invited many monks from outside the tribe to come to mourning for the funeral of the elders who died. Of course, these are for the dead. Neither worked.

But in the eyes of living people, it will make many people have the idea of ​​"If I die in the future, there will be so much mourning for me, and it will be worth dying".

Funerals are never for the dead!

So ~www.readwn.com~ Because of the death of Zhou Xuanhao, many monks of the Xiuxian family who had to delay their departure for more than half a year had to set off ahead of schedule and rushed to the Red Tiger Mountain Oasis.

If Zhou Xuanhao was just a foundation-building elder of the Zhou family, they would at most send a younger generation to mourning.

However, Zhou Xuanhao also has another identity as the father of Zhou Yang, a monk of the Zifu period. With this important identity, even Zhang Yunpeng, the head of Huangshamen, rushed to the Zhou family in Chihu Mountain in person after learning the news. condole.

Zhou Yang paid no attention to all of this, and let Zhou Guangxiang, the patriarch and the elders, handle it all.

After Zhou Xuanhao passed away, he followed his last wish, cremated his body and buried him with his mother Lin Yuting, and then sat at his parents' graves all the time, reflecting on his experience in this life.

A hundred years ago, he sent away his mother Lin Yuting with his own hands, and now he sent away his father Zhou Xuanhao himself. He has experienced the joys and sorrows of the world, life and death, and he has a deep understanding of it.
