Immortal cultivation begins in the desert

"Brother Liu and brother Yang, please walk slowly. When the foundation building ceremony of Xiaojiu will be held in the future, please be sure to patronize."

"Certainly, others can not go to the foundation building ceremony. We will not be absent from Zhou Xiaoyou's foundation building ceremony."

The Zhou family on Jingming peak is located outside the ground. After discussing with the visiting Liu Qingsong and Yang Xingyan for nearly an hour, Zhou Yang and Zhou Minghan's grandparents and grandchildren personally sent them out of the courtyard.

Looking at the smiling faces of several people, it is obvious that they have had a good talk and have reached some agreement.

After seeing off the visiting Liu and Yang, Zhou Minghan and Zhou Yang returned to the quiet room, laid a sound insulation barrier and talked about the things previously agreed with Liu and Yang.

Zhou Minghan first said with a worried face: "I don't know whether we're doing this right or not. If it wasn't led by Liu and Yang, I really don't dare to think about it. It's a tiger's mouth snatching food!"

When Zhou Yang heard this, he shook his head and said, "great grandfather's words, please forgive my grandson for disagreeing!"

He looked at the worried old patriarch and said calmly, "Yang Xingyan is right. For the Chen family, it is a matter of harmony and mutual benefit for us to do this. Baisha River Oasis needs our strength to help protect it. The Chen family can't eat all the scattered repair resources here."

"Our move may make some friars of the Chen family uncomfortable, but with the wisdom of Chen Laozu, we should be able to see our determination to this matter and the importance of this matter to our families."

"This matter is better blocked than sparse. If the Chen family refuses to give up this benefit, it means that they don't treat us as allies at all, but treat us as enemies threatening their Chen family's status. In that case, why should we use our own resources to help them rebuild the market?"

When Zhou Minghan heard him say this, his face became even more worried. He couldn't help sighing: "Hey! Xiao Jiu, I also understand what you said. Although my Zhou family is no longer lack of high-end combat power because of your father and son's foundation, the number of friars in the following Qi training period has lost a lot, which is difficult to supplement in a short time. "

"In order to avoid the situation of strong guests and weak masters, our families linked by blood can't wantonly absorb outsiders like the sect. The Chen family's [Fengyue building] model is the only choice to quickly improve the family scale."

"It's just that I look at Liu and Yang. If the Chen family doesn't agree with the three of us to open a family branch in Baisha River Oasis this time, I'm afraid they will really join hands to set up a workshop and compete with the Chen family for scattered repair resources. Where should we go at that time?"

Where should the Zhou family go?

Zhou Yang looked at the worried old patriarch and wanted to say, do you want to ask this question?

But that would be disrespectful.

He could only say with a wry smile: "great grandfather, you think too much. If the Chen family doesn't even agree to our little request, even if we don't work with Liu and Yang, we have to find another backer. In short, the Chen family, who refuses to pull out a hair, is certainly not a suitable object to follow!"

Zhou Minghan was stunned.

He looked at Zhou Yang in amazement, frowning as if he wanted to say something.

But when he saw Zhou Yang's young face, he suddenly woke up and seemed to understand something. He couldn't help laughing bitterly and said, "Xiao Jiu, you're right. If the Chen family refuses to agree to our request, it's tantamount to making it clear that they don't want to see our families grow, so what's the need for us to follow them again? I understand what to do! "

He wanted to understand that Zhou Yang was not him. He was old. For the rest of his life, he would be very satisfied to see that the Zhou family could pass on in his own hands.

However, young people like Zhou Yang must have ambitions and want to lead the family to grow. Once upon a time, he had such ambitions when he was young.

In his opinion, the event planned by Liu and Yang is a dangerous move. If they are not careful, they will be suppressed by the Chen family, the purple family.

However, in the view of Zhou Yang with ambition, this is a great opportunity to test the Chen family. If the Chen family does not have the capacity to accommodate people, the Zhou family under his leadership will no longer follow the Chen family.

As for the Chen family's crackdown that followed, we were so far apart. At most, the friars of the Zhou family no longer set foot in the Baisha River Oasis. Can the Chen family go on an expedition to the Yuquan Lake oasis to destroy the Zhou family?

As long as the ancestors of the Chen family have not lost their mind, they can't do so.

"It seems that I'm really old. Even Liu Qingsong, an old man who has half his feet buried in the earth, is still ambitious, but I just want to be a successful dog. Thanks to Xiao Jiu you today, otherwise my Zhou family will miss a great opportunity!"

Zhou Minghan, who wanted to understand, shook his head with a gloomy face and was very frustrated.

Old people are not terrible. The terrible thing is that ideas age with each passing day. Especially for those in power in a family, once ideas age, the whole family will be affected by themselves and decline.

Seeing this, Zhou Yang quickly comforted: "your great grandfather was just old and prudent. In the past, the burden of the whole Zhou family was on you. Of course, you didn't dare to take any risks. If you didn't support the family, your grandson and father might not be able to build a foundation safely. Everyone can see your contribution to the family. Why should you blame yourself for this."

Zhou Minghan was so smart that he couldn't hear his comforting words. After hearing his words, he couldn't help staring and saying, "well, don't comfort me, boy. I'm wrong, I'm wrong, and I'm not afraid to admit it. When I return to the family this time, I'll give you the position of clan head, and then be a carefree man with peace of mind and enjoy my happiness."

When Zhou Yang heard this, he was in a hurry. He shook his head and said, "how can this work? Great grandfather, you are a good patriarch, and your grandchildren are far from qualified in terms of cultivation. How can you shoulder this important task? "

"I'm the patriarch. I said you could do it. That's it!" Zhou Minghan seemed to be really hit. He didn't listen to Zhou Yang's advice at all. He decided to pass on the position of patriarch to him when he went back.

Ren is how eloquent Zhou Yang is. In this case, he has no choice.

He is not unwilling to take over the position of patriarch, but that should be what happened after the old patriarch Zhou Minghan sat down.

Now Zhou Minghan suddenly said that he would pass on the position of patriarch to him. He was not in a hurry.

Not to mention that once he takes over the position of patriarch, it is bound to delay his practice. It is easy to provoke gossip when the old patriarch Zhou Minghan has dozens of years of life and Yuan to pass on the position of patriarch to him.

People who don't know will probably say that he and his father Zhou Xuanhao jointly forced the palace and forced Zhou Minghan to give way to him in advance.

This will have a great reputation on him, his father Zhou Xuanhao and even the reputation of the whole Zhou family. Zhou Yang doesn't understand how the shrewd old clan leader can suddenly be so unwise.

"It's hard. It seems that we can only ask our father to persuade the old patriarch when we return to the family."

He secretly complained. He could only place his hope on his father Zhou Xuanhao and other family elders, hoping that these elders could persuade the old patriarch to take back his decision at that time.

On this day, as if it had been discussed in advance, the heads of the Liu family in chixiashan, the Yang family in jinquangu and the Zhou family in yuquanhu suddenly boarded the white hump of the Chen family and directly requested to meet with Chen Laozu to discuss important matters.

Except for the Chen family's foundation building friar, no one knows what the clan leaders of the three families discussed with Chen Laozu. The other families on Jingming peak only know that after the clan leaders of Liu, Yang and Wednesday came back from the white hump, everyone's face was full of uncontrollable joy. When they came back, they returned to the family with the clan people.

Baisha River Oasis and Yuquan Lake oasis are thousands of miles apart. In order to take care of Zhou xuantai and other friars in the Qi training period, Zhou Minghan and Zhou Yang, two friars in the foundation building period, can only ride the Shatuo beast with them.

The five Shatuo beasts were rode by Zhou xuantai at that time and kept in the animal garden of the Chen family. Fortunately, they survived the attack of sand bandits. However, the two Shatuo beasts that Zhou Yang and Zhou Xuanyu rode were slaughtered when they fled Jinxia mountain.

In addition to the material loss of thousands of spirit stones in the "Yuquan building", six people including Zhou Xuanyu, Wu Tao, Luo Meiwei, Zhou yuanxia, Zhou Ping and Zhou Qi are missing. If you add Zhou Yun, Zhou Qi and Zhou xuanjing who died at the mouth of the monster, the number of monks in the whole Zhou family will be reduced by 20%.

The Zhou family lost nine family friars for the first time in nearly a century.

Zhou Yang can already foresee how sad it will be when the people waiting in the family know the news.

But since we have embarked on the road of cultivating immortals, we will inevitably encounter this situation, which is the price of pursuing longevity!

It was a long way home. Zhou Yang didn't want to have nothing to do for a month or two, so while he was on his way, he and the old patriarch Zhou Minghan learned the "sword defense" that friars could practice during the foundation period.

The so-called "sword technique" does not refer to a single spell, but refers to the decision of flying sword.

The real name of the "sword technique" collected by the Zhou family should be "flying star sword formula". This sword formula is divided into three layers. After practicing the first layer, you can turn the sword light into a sword flying. If you use the sword formula to control the flying sword in battle, the power of the flying sword can be greatly increased and various changes can be derived.

Generally, friars in the foundation period can only learn the first level of flying star sword formula. Only those friars with outstanding talent can learn the second level of flying star sword formula in the foundation period.

According to Zhou Yang, the reason why Chen Ping'an of the Chen family was able to kill the third-order top-grade monster "swallowing Golden Toad" with one sword at the beginning is that in addition to the fact that the flying sword in his hand is a fourth-order magic weapon, another reason is that he has cultivated the sword defense decision of the Chen family to the second level.

The first level of flying star sword formula is not difficult to learn. According to the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, it took him about a year to learn the first level of sword formula.

Zhou Yang benefited from his increased divine knowledge after building the foundation, and the old patriarch taught him by example all the way. When the team just returned to Yuquan Lake oasis, he successfully practiced the first layer of sword formula.
