Immortal cultivation begins in the desert

Zhou Minghan has great expectations for Zhou Yang.

Since Zhou Yuquan, the founder of the family, there have always been friars in the foundation period, so that they can develop to this scale in just over 200 years.

But up to now, the Zhou family in Yuquan seems to have run out of luck. Since Zhou Minghan, no new foundation building friars have been born for hundreds of years.

This is dangerous.

A family of nuns is most afraid of the sudden death of high-level monks.

Once they lose the protection of friars during the foundation period, the Zhou family, let alone continue to develop and expand the family scale, may not be able to defend the ancestral land of Yuquan Lake oasis and Yuquan peak.

Therefore, under the secret inspiration of Zhou Minghan, the development of the Zhou family in recent years has actually stopped secretly. The fear is that further expansion will cause others to peep at him, resulting in the disaster of extermination of the Zhou family after his fall.

But after all, this is not the cure. The best way is for the Zhou family to give birth to a new family of friars in the foundation period before he fell.

As long as there are friars in the foundation period, with the help of the third-order array [WanMu Qingtian array] on Yuquan peak and dozens of people in the Qi training period, multiple friars in the foundation period will attack, which will not hurt the foundation of the Zhou family.

Originally, Zhou Minghan put his hope on the younger generation of the "Xuan" generation, and even made up his mind. If no one in the Zhou family had been promoted to the foundation period before his fall, he would rather dedicate most of the output of the Yuquan Lake oasis and the Zhou family to huangshamen in exchange for the protection of Salmonella Huang, rather than let the Zhou family be jealous and exterminated because they occupied a lot of interests.

But now, Zhou Minghan found that maybe he should change his mind.

With the potential of Zhou Yang, the younger generation of the "Yuan" generation, as long as it is given another two or three decades, its hope of building a foundation is probably much greater than those of the "Xuan" generation.

He looked carefully at the young man standing in front of him. The handsome and elegant appearance and temperament of the young man was not the focus of his attention. What he valued was the kind of unassuming attitude that the young man showed in front of him, and the calm state of mind that he knew he was examining him and could still face him calmly.

After reading it, he had only one idea in his mind.

This son can be of great use!

Of course, as an elder, no matter how satisfied and happy he is, he won't show too much on his face and can't encourage the pride of young people.

Therefore, although he was very happy in his heart, his face returned to a cool color. He looked at Zhou Yang calmly and asked, "do you know my intention to let you come here?"

"My grandson doesn't know." Zhou Yang replied honestly.

"According to the rules of the clan, young monks in the clan must go down the mountain to practice and work for the family for a period of time after they are 20 years old before they can return to the mountain for retreat."

"But you are in a special situation. Although you are only 17 years old, you have already practiced the six-layer cultivation of Qi. In the past 100 years, no one in the family has your cultivation when you go down the mountain at the age of 20."

"It happens that you have just broken through with the help of the earth pulse aura, and it will take at least five years to fight the mana in the future. If you stay on the mountain, isn't it a waste of manpower?"

"So I decided to do something special and let you go down the mountain to work for the family in advance, which is also good for your experience and your future practice."

Zhou Minghan looked at Zhou Yang with a face full of ears. The corner of his mouth tilted slightly and said his arrangement in a deep voice.

Sure enough, as he expected, Zhou Yang's face changed after hearing his words. Obviously, he didn't think it would be such a thing to ask him to come here.

However, he didn't know whether he was happy or depressed. After Zhou Yang's face changed slightly, he immediately recovered his calm, and then bowed respectfully and said, "my grandson understands and is willing to obey the arrangement of the family."

Seeing this, he asked strangely, "don't you want to know where I'm going to arrange you?"

"My grandson believes that no matter how my great grandfather arranges, he will ultimately be good for his grandson."

Zhou Yang smiled and directly threw out the words that made Zhou Minghan speechless for a long time.

After a long time, he smiled and scolded angrily: "it's really a little slick. Xuanhao's child and his wife are honest people. How could they give birth to a little slick like you!"

With that, he took the initiative to say his arrangement for Zhou Yang without waiting for Zhou Yang to complain.

"Your spiritual root attribute is biased towards gold and fire. You practice the masculine and domineering skill of Jinyang fire formula. In addition to some lack of combat experience, your fighting ability is not weaker than that of any friar at the same level."

"It's just that the friar of the family stationed in Qingping mountain has reached the garrison deadline. Go and take over his Garrison for five years. I'll let others take over after five years."

"In addition, I hope you can find time to learn the art of refining tools in the hundred skills of cultivating immortals during this period. There are no good seedlings in the family to take over my class. If you can make achievements in this field, it will be a great thing for the whole family."

After finishing his arrangement, Zhou Minghan waved his hand and threw a gray storage bag and a small silver shield into Zhou Yang's hand.

"There are some low-level refining materials in the storage bag. There are also some experience of the old man about refining skills and a set of copies of the true solution of refining tools collected by the family. You should take good care of these things and don't spread them outside."

"As for this [silver Gang shield] magic weapon, it's the best of many second-order magic tools I refined. It should be my compensation for going down the mountain early."

"Well, if you have nothing else to do, you can quit. The trip to Qingping mountain should be completed within one month."

Zhou Yang was stunned by Zhou Minghan's words and operation. In the end, he almost instinctively grasped the things in his hand and said, "the grandson will leave first."

It was not until he walked out of the cave and heard the sound of the door closing that he was shocked and came back to understand what had happened.

He recalled what Zhou Minghan had just told him in the cave. His eyes were full of confusion and muttered, "what happened to me just now? How can you lose your soul without any reaction? It's not like my character! "

Before the voice fell, his heart suddenly jumped and a bold guess came out.

"Is it the old patriarch who did some magic to me?"

The next moment, he immediately stopped his dangerous idea.

Even if the old clan leader cast some magic on him, he must just play a joke with him. There's no need to think too much about it. Wishful thinking will only harm himself.

Thinking about this, he looked at the storage bag and magic tools in his hand and carefully put them away. Then he said hello to Zhou Yun, the seventh grandfather who was tasting tea alone under the tree, and asked him to help open the array and send him down the mountain.

Finally, before walking out of the array, Zhou Yang looked back at the top of the mountain. He saw seven grandpa Zhou Jun standing under the tree, smiling and watching him leave.

"The boy seems to have found something. It seems that he can't play tricks on him in the future, so as not to cause bad misunderstandings."

In the cave on the top of the mountain, Zhou Minghan saw the change of Zhou Yang's expression after he left through his divine consciousness. He pulled his beard awkwardly and flashed a look of regret on his face.

Just now, when he was talking, he quietly performed a soul absorbing spell he had obtained in his early years to affect Zhou Yang's mind.

It's not that he was afraid of Zhou Yang's resistance to his arrangement. It's just that he couldn't see Zhou Yang's youthful appearance and wanted to tease him.

It's like those adults in mortals deliberately give him some Shaojiu in order to make fun of children, and then look at the pretended mature children with spicy snot, tears and laughter.

This kind of teasing, of course, would make the elders proud of their success at that time, but they would regret it when they found that their teasing would make the younger generation mentally disgusted with themselves.

Zhou Minghan is in this situation now.

Fortunately, Zhou Yang was really mature psychologically, not pretending to be mature. He didn't really complain about the old man who was devoted to the family because of this little joke.

After he walked down the top of the mountain, he soon returned to his attic on the hillside and sorted out today's harvest behind closed doors.

The first is the storage bag given to him by the old clan leader. This kind of storage magic tool made of the demon beast [spirit virtual mouse] mouse skin is almost one for each person. Even the poorest casual practitioners will try their best to buy one for themselves.

Of course, it is also a storage bag, which is also divided into different sizes and grades. Generally, the storage bag used for casual repair during the gas practice period has a space of only three feet square, which is barely enough to hold several sets of laundry and a small amount of sundries.

The Zhou family in Yuquan, a family of immortals, can receive a five foot square storage bag from the family for free as long as their cultivation reaches the Qi training period. Zhou Yang has a good father, so the storage bag in his hand is one foot square.

But now his storage bag has been upgraded.

The gray looking storage bag given by the old clan leader has a space of three feet square. In addition to a tripod for refining utensils and several ancient books on refining utensils, it is also filled with low-level refining materials such as black iron, red copper, Centennial iron and wood.

According to Zhou Yang's rough calculation, if he only refined sabres and swords, these materials would be enough for him to refine them hundreds of times.

"Although ordinary people learn the art of refining utensils, the family will also provide materials to practice their skills for free, they will give me hundreds of opportunities at the top of the sky. The old patriarch gave me so many materials. No matter how stupid a person is, he can succeed two or three times!"

Zhou Yang looked at the full material in the storage bag and said that he was not moved. It was a lie.

He knew that the old patriarch always had a clear distinction between public and private. Even if he was gifted, he would not make an exception for him in this regard.

Then there is only one reason why he can practice with so many materials now. The old patriarch used his private savings to exchange these materials from the family warehouse.

"It seems that the old clan leader really wants me to inherit his weapon refining skill. As the only third-order weapon refiner in the family, he must have seen something. Maybe I really have a good talent in weapon refining."

Zhou Yang thought of his own cultivation method "Jinyang fire formula". Suddenly, if he realized something, a clear smile appeared on his face.

Then he carefully put away the storage bag and looked at another thing given by the old patriarch, the second-order magic weapon [silver Gang shield].
