Chapter 455: Sprint to the ninth floor of the Purple Mansion!
Although he did not agree to Jin Qu's request, the fact that the Reversible Light Alliance was about to go to war with the Great Light Asgard inevitably affected some of Zhou Yang's decisions.
He originally wanted to open a shop in Haoyang Immortal City, but he no longer had that intention. Zhou Guangxiang, who had just been promoted to the Zifu a few years ago, was also assigned the task of going to Cangyuan Immortal City to protect the Zhou family.
"The two sides are really starting a war. Cangyuan Immortal City has no choice but to send people to participate in the war. Tongyue and the others, as newcomers to Cangyuan Immortal City, have not yet made any achievements. There is a 80% chance that they will be used as chess pieces and sent to the battlefield as cannon fodder."
"If something like that really happens, in the name of accepting a disciple, you will accept a new member of the Zhou family as a disciple, and use this as a reason to provide shelter to the Zhou family so that others will not dare to touch the Zhou family."
"These things are also for you to take with you. If Tong Yue is really drafted into the battlefield, you will give these things to him for self-defense."
In the cave, Zhou Yang called Zhou Guangxiang out and explained that the war was about to start. Then he took out some things and gave them to her, explaining his arrangements for her.
The things in the storage bag were a set of magical equipment that he specially purchased materials to tailor-make for Zhou Tongyue after he knew that the war was about to start, as well as a third-level high-grade puppet beast, and some healing tools refined by Xiao Ying.
Life-saving elixir.
Zhou Tongyue himself was born as a monk in the Zhou Family Battle Hall. After successfully building the foundation, he practiced the advanced technique "Golden Light Shining World Art", and his fighting ability is definitely above the same level.
The set of equipment Zhou Yang prepared for him was actually an enhanced version of the original set of the monks of the Zhou Family Battle Hall, and each piece was a third-level magic weapon that he personally refined.
In order to create this set of magical tools, Zhou Yang spent 40,000 to 50,000 low-grade spiritual stones on materials, which shows its effect.
Zhou Tongyue has this set of magic weapons in hand, and with the help of the third-level high-grade puppet beast, as long as he does not encounter the top ninth-level foundation-building monks, he should have no problem in saving his life.
"Xiang'er understands what to do. Please rest assured, Uncle Jiu, Xiang'er will definitely take good care of the Zhou family in Cangyuan Immortal City and will never let your hard work go to waste!"
Zhou Guangxiang took the storage bag from Zhou Yang, nodded vigorously, and made a solemn promise.
Seeing this, Zhou Yang nodded first, then shook his head and said: "As long as the Zhou family is not lost, there is no need to get too close to them, otherwise the relationship between us will be exposed, which will harm them.
You must control the speed!"
"Yes, Xiang'er will follow Uncle Jiu's teachings and will never expose the relationship between the Zhou family and Uncle Jiu!"
Zhou Guangxiang responded with a serious face, said goodbye to Zhou Yang immediately, and left the city overnight to rush towards Cangyuan Immortal City of Yu State.
After she left, Zhou Yang also officially went into seclusion for meditation.
Seven years later, the war between the Great Light Immortal Palace and the Counter-Light Alliance really started. Each side recruited more than 100,000 monks to fight in the border area. Every day, monks from both sides fell at the hands of the other side.
The Zhou family of Cangyuan Immortal City was forced to send several Qi-training monks to join the battlefield together with the family leader Zhou Tongyue, as Zhou Yang had not expected.
This large-scale war between immortal cultivators is different from the war between ordinary mortal nations.
The war between immortal cultivators, unless they have invaded deep into the enemy's territory and started to attack the enemy's mountain gate, generally follows the principle of soldiers against soldiers and generals against each other.
The two warring parties will set up a formation camp in an uninhabited area, and then each will send a certain number of Qi-training monks and foundation-building monks to enter a battlefield hundreds of miles deep to fight.
Every time a monk enters the battlefield to fight, he must stay in the battlefield area for a full day before coming out, otherwise he will be directly regarded as a deserter by the Jindan monks who supervise the battlefield and directly kill him.
And every half a month or a month, the monks of the Purple Mansion Stage and even the Golden Core Stage of both sides have to go out in person to fight with the enemy's monks of the same level.
One of the advantages of fighting between high-level monks compared to low- and mid-level monks is that they are allowed to evacuate the battlefield if they are defeated.
However, if the high-level monks fail in the battle, the next time the low- and middle-level monks enter the battlefield to fight, the number of monks the enemy can invest will increase. For every more high-level monks who lose, the enemy can add one more.
formed military strength.
Therefore, the high-level monks who participated in the fighting did not dare to retreat easily unless absolutely necessary.
Because if they dare to deliberately abandon the battle and retreat, they will definitely be severely punished by their own high-level officials, and will also be resented and hated by countless low-level monks.
In the later stages of the war, even high-level monks will be forced to engage in death-match mode. Each side selects several high-level monks to fight to the death.
The death match mode is supervised by Nascent Soul stage monks. Even if it is a Golden Core stage monk, the only way to win is to kill the opponent and win!
The victorious party can not only kill the enemy's high-level monks, but also win the spiritual mountains and spiritual mines that the enemy has used as bets.
This unique war model was finally determined by the high-level monks of both sides after countless battles between the Great Light Immortal Palace and the Counter-Light Alliance.
Since neither of them has the ability to destroy the other, they can only use this unique war mode to continuously engage in bloodletting tactics for the other side and consume the other side's war potential.
It should be noted that the monks in the Nascent Soul stage also grow up step by step from the monks in the Qi training stage.
Among the Qi-training stage monks and Foundation-building stage monks who have died on the battlefield, there may have been people who could have become Golden Core stage monks or even Nascent Soul stage monks.
The more low- and mid-level monks you kill the enemy in a war, the more resource points you win from the enemy, and the fewer high-level monks the enemy will be able to emerge in the next few hundred years.
When the enemy's high-level monks are completely overwhelmed by the number of our own high-level monks, a true annihilation war can be launched.
For thousands of years, both the Counter-Light Alliance and the Great Light Immortal Palace have launched a war of annihilation that spread to the entire Far West because the number of high-level monks on their side greatly exceeded the number of high-level monks on the other side.
It's a pity that in both wars, no one really defeated the other. When both wars reached a critical moment, the enemy used special means to overturn the situation. The great advantages were ruined, and they had to return to their home base to make a truce.
The war cannot end in a short time. The longest pre-battle war between the Anti-Light Alliance and the Great Light Immortal Palace lasted for more than seventy years before it ended.
The shortest one lasted at least ten years.
Only in this way can we reach the point where the opponent's war potential is consumed and the opponent's strength is broken.
Zhou Yang, who was in seclusion, occasionally came out to inquire about some war news, but most of the time, he closed the door of the cave and retreated in it.
Three years after the war, which was the tenth year of his retreat, he finally raised his cultivation to the eighth level of the Purple Mansion.
After reaching the eighth floor of the Purple Mansion, Zhou Yang was only one step away from the ninth floor of the Purple Mansion. After Zhou Yang got out of seclusion and learned about some of the outside situation, he decided to continue seclusion and directly launched a sprint to the ninth floor of the Purple Mansion.
But before that, he changed the cave to the "Jiyang Cave" which is suitable for fire-based martial arts monks to practice.
The "Jiyang Cave" is located next to an underground fire vein in Haoyang Immortal City. It is a treasured cultivation place created by the Yuanying Stage monks. The cultivation room inside is not only as rich in spiritual energy as a fifth-level spiritual vein, but also can pass through
The power of the formation continuously absorbs and transforms the pure fire spiritual energy in the fire veins under the ground for the refining and practice of the fire system cultivators.
The number of fire-based magic cultivators is the largest in the Far West. Among the six top sects of the Niguang Alliance, Haoyang Sect and Lihuo Sect are both famous for their fire-based magical powers.
Therefore, ever since this "Jiyang Cave" was built, the supply of more than 20 training rooms in it has been in short supply. They have been occupied by famous high-level fire-based martial arts cultivators for a long time, and it is difficult to rent them even if you have money.
.
If it hadn't been for the war between the Counter-Light Alliance and the Great Light Immortal Palace this time, and some high-level monks were recruited to the front line to fight, leaving a few training rooms vacant, Zhou Yang would not have been able to rent such a treasured training place.
This time he wants to sprint to the ninth floor of the Purple Mansion. The "Jiyang Cave" training room with an annual rent of 5,000 low-grade spiritual stones should be of great help.
After paying ten years' rent in advance, Zhou Yang officially moved into the practice room in the "Ji Yang Cave" for seclusion.
"Sure enough, you get what you pay for. Five thousand spirit stones per year can only rent such a training room that is less than seven feet long and less than five feet wide. It seems completely incomparable to a cave, but it speeds up my practice.
It is successful, but it is incomparable to even fifth-level spiritual veins like Lingxi Peak!"
In the training room in the "Jiyang Cave", after Zhou Yang experienced the effects of practicing here for the first time, he couldn't help but praise the benefits of this training room with a face full of joy.
He has long heard that among those sects, there are various cultivation treasures that are also very effective for high-level monks. A few years ago, when he was chatting with Taoist companion Xiao Ying, he also learned that the other party was in the "Ten Thousand Wood Spiritual Land".
When he practiced in the cave, the effect was indeed much better than in the ordinary fourth-level cave. Unfortunately, he never had the opportunity to try it.
Today, after he got what he wanted and tried it, he realized that the rumors were indeed true. There was indeed a reason why the training room in the "Jiyang Cave" was so difficult to rent.
"With the help of this treasure, plus the remaining spiritual elixirs and two cultivation-improving treasures in my hands, there is no need to worry about the big thing failing!"
Zhou Yang recalled the preparations he had made for sprinting to the ninth floor of the Purple Mansion, and a confident smile appeared on his lips.
He spread his hands and took out all the remaining fourth-level high-grade elixirs that could improve his cultivation. Then he carefully inspected the elixirs and took out two other jade boxes.
These two jade boxes, one contains the purplish-red spiritual fruit that he bought at an underground auction, which is suspected to be the fifth-level spiritual fruit "Purple Sun Vermilion Fruit", and the other contains the "Yunwuze" that he originally cultivated in Liuyun Continent.
Three pieces of "Yunmist Fairy Tea" obtained from the game.
The real "Purple Yang Zhu Fruit" can even increase the cultivation level of the golden elixir stage monks by thirty years. If the purple mansion stage monks take it, as long as they can withstand the power of the medicine, there is a high chance that they will directly increase their cultivation level by one layer.
Even if the piece in Zhou Yang's hand is not genuine, after Xu Song's appraisal, it has been proven that it is indeed a fifth-level spiritual fruit containing pure fire spiritual power. After taking it, it can at least offset his ten or twenty years of hard work.
And after three pieces of "Yunwu Xian Tea" are soaked in water and drunk, it can also directly increase the cultivation level of the monks in the Zifu period for ten years.
With the help of these two spiritual beings, plus the remaining fourth-level high-grade elixirs, and the "Jiyang Cave" training room that is of great help to his practice, Zhou Yang can sprint to the ninth floor of the Purple Mansion.
