Chapter five hundred and sixty-three: robbery on the road! Ask for a monthly ticket]
While Li Mubai took the heads of hundreds of Geng family monks out of the city to pay homage to his clan members, Zhou Yang raided the treasure troves of many families, including the Geng family.
The reason why Geng Zhong actively massacred the Li family in the first place was not only to carry out Guo Jinhong's order, but also to express the bad temper of being beaten by Zhou Yang. The most important reason was because he coveted the Li family's property.
"Cangyuan Sanren" Li Cangyuan is the founder of Cangyuan Fairy City. Over the past hundreds of years, the Li family and he have accumulated an unknown amount of wealth because of this fairy city.
Even though "Cangyuan Sanren" Li Cangyuan gave Geng Zhong a lot of things before his death in order to let Geng Zhong let go of the Li family, he still could not satisfy him.
Currently, most of the Li family's wealth is stored in the underground treasure house of the City Lord's Mansion.
Any treasure house used to store family savings is always heavily defended, and some even have "bloodline divine bans" installed to prevent enemies from obtaining the treasures inside.
But since Zhou Yang had this plan, how could he not be prepared?
Geng Zhong's private treasure house in the city lord's palace was looted after he destroyed the outer defensive array and burned it through the thick alloy walls with the enhanced version of "Qianyang True Fire".
The Geng family's treasure house with the "Bloodline Divine Forbidden" was easily opened by him using Geng Zhong's own blood and the treasure house opening secret learned from his memory through the "Soul Searching Technique", and he also looted the precious things. Empty.
As for those Zifu families, they have not yet used such advanced things as the "Bloodline Divine Forbidden". For Zhou Yang, the treasure house can be destroyed with one strike without any effort at all.
He moved very quickly, and in less than half a day, he completed the search for all the destroyed families in the city and their shops and other properties in the city.
Then he handed Geng Zhong, who had become dementia due to the "Soul Searching Technique", to Li Mubai and chopped him into pieces with a knife. His head was placed on the top of the Jingguan built with the heads of hundreds of Geng family monks, and he left Cang directly with Li Mubai. Yuanxian City disappeared in front of people.
It was not until Zhou Yang left with Li Mubai that the other residents of Cangyuan Immortal City, who were trembling with fear and hiding at home because of this bloody revenge, dared to come out to check the specific situation, and then a large-scale robbery inevitably occurred.
Although Zhou Yang had obtained all the essence from the treasury of each destroyed family, the storage rings on his body were also limited, and it was impossible to carry everything away. In fact, he had thrown away many large and not particularly valuable spiritual objects. They didn't take it away, let alone the spiritual plants planted on each spiritual mountain and the spiritual minerals hoarded.
In addition, there were many corpses of monks who were killed and he had no time to search them. He only searched the storage magic tools that important people carried with them.
He couldn't take these things away, nor did he destroy them. Now they were all ownerless things, and anyone could snatch them away.
And because there is no city lord Geng Zhong, and there are no monks close to the city lord Geng Zhong to suppress them in the city, other residents in the fairy city have no psychological pressure at all when they loot these things.
Even many monks who originally belonged to the Cangyuan Immortal City Guards joined in the looting, and many bloody fights took place.
When the Jindan monks from other forces in Yu Kingdom heard that Zhou Yang, an important wanted criminal from the "Counter Light Alliance", appeared in Cangyuan Immortal City and came to hunt Zhou Yang, they used their overwhelming force to stop the looting and restore order to Cangyuan Immortal City. Returned to normal again.
Next, as the news spread, various small family forces, like the Zhou family, who had fled Cangyuan Immortal City because of the change of city lords, gathered like wolves that smelled fishy smell, including several people led by Li Hong. A Zhou family foundation-building monk.
There are more than a dozen Jindan monks in the Yu Kingdom. Behind these people are seven or eight different forces. Cangyuan Immortal City, which used to be extremely prosperous, suddenly lost its owner. Everyone wants to reach out and take this Immortal City, which is making money every day, under their own influence.
middle.
But under mutual constraints, no one can achieve what they want.
At this time, forces like the Zhou family that originally belonged to Cangyuan Immortal City would be readily accepted as long as they showed a slight intention of joining a certain force.
The two sides hit it off immediately. One side needs to find a strong enough backer for itself, and the other side needs an excuse to legitimately intervene in Cangyuan Immortal City. It can be said that they are getting what each other needs.
Zhou Yang did not pay attention to how Li Hong manipulated many powerful forces to gain benefits for the Zhou family.
After he and Li Mubai evacuated Cangyuan Immortal City, he began to recall the various Zhou family foundation-building monks who had returned from traveling to the Far West, and prepared to leave the Far West.
In the end, a total of fifteen of the seventeen Zhou family foundation-building monks he brought to the Far West for training came back, and two more had their soul cards broken, proving that they had been killed.
For the two Zhou family foundation-building monks who were killed, Zhou Yang, apart from expressing his condolences, had no idea of helping them avenge themselves.
He didn't even know the place where these two people were killed, let alone find their murderer. The land in the far west is not the boundless sand sea cultivation world where the Zhou family makes the decision, and they can be allowed to search all sides to track down the murderer.
What's more, traveling to the world of immortality is a dangerous thing in itself. Even if you are a disciple of a top sect like the Xuanyang Immortal Sect, not everyone who travels can come back every time.
Identity and background can only bring security and dependence to people in public places. When you go to a deserted land and face a life-and-death battle, who will care about the background of your opponent.
Although two foundation-building monks were lost, the number of Zhou Yang and others who returned to the boundless sand sea to cultivate immortality increased instead of decreasing.
Li Mubai finally chose to leave this sad place with Zhou Yang and go to the boundless sand sea to rebuild their Li family. Among the people accompanying them were him and his two children, Li Zifeng and Li Zinan.
In addition, Zhou Fuyun, Zhou Zeqian's mother and son, who Zhou Yang promised to bring back to the boundless sand sea to cultivate immortality, naturally increased the number of people.
In fact, after the few foundation-building monks from the Zhou family in the far west heard about the situation in our family, they all expressed their willingness to follow Zhou Yang to the boundless sand sea to the immortal world to recognize their ancestors and return to their clan. In fact, they were unwilling.
Here in the extreme west, I am frightened and struggling to survive in the cracks.
However, Zhou Yang considered that Li Hong needed manpower to develop the Zhou family, so he tried to reassure those people and gave up the idea.
Of course, in order to appease these people, he still upgraded their treatment to the level of the Zhou family, without requiring them to undergo assessments like the monks of his family.
At the same time, he privately transferred the treasures obtained from the treasure houses of various families in Cangyuan Immortal City this time, and selected some general spiritual objects that could explain their origins and put them into the Zhou family's treasure house, so that these people could redeem them with their family contribution points.
Speaking of which, this house raid also made Zhou Yang a windfall.
Just from the colorful spiritual stones, he confiscated a total of 1.56 million low-grade spiritual stones, and also confiscated 37 high-grade spiritual stones.
As for other treasures such as elixirs, magic weapons, spiritual talismans, exercises, elixirs, and minerals, there are so many that they fill three storage rings, which are worth at least two to three million low-grade spiritual stones.
In other words, after finishing this job, he not only made up for the spiritual stone materials he invested in the Zhou family in the far west, but also made a huge profit.
The person who saw off Zhou Yang and his party was a foundation-building monk from the Zhou family. However, this person was just waiting outside the "Demon Falling Valley". After Zhou Yang and others left, the ghost cultivator Xu Song took it down and placed it on the teleportation array.
Thirty-six high-grade spiritual stones were obtained, and an imp was sent to take them out of the "Falling Demon Valley" and hand them over to the Zhou family's foundation-building monk.
Thirty-six complete high-grade spiritual stones can be used to use the teleportation array three times. These spiritual stones are left in the Zhou family and can be used as emergency reserve funds. They can also be used to activate the teleportation array when Zhou Yang comes over next time.
use.
On the other side, after returning to the Immortal Cultivation World of the Boundless Sand Sea, those Zhou family foundation-building monks followed what Zhou Yang had said before and first wrote down what they saw and heard during this trip to the far west as travel notes, and put them in the Sutra Pavilion and the School.
It is for all the monks to read, and then they all return to their original posts to resume work.
As for Zhou Yang, he called Zhou Guangxiang to the cave on Lingxi Peak to talk alone.
"Although this trip to the Far West is short, it must have opened your eyes to the vastness of the outside world. Tell me what you think."
In the cave, Zhou Yang made a cup of spiritual tea for himself and Zhou Guangxiang, then took the tea and enjoyed the aroma of this special spiritual tea from the far west, while gesturing to his nephew to talk about his thoughts on this trip.
"The biggest impression is that, just like Uncle Jiu said at the beginning, the frog at the bottom of the well was shocked to see the vastness of the world outside the well!"
"Especially during the trip to Jinyang Kingdom, after observing the huge glazed sinkhole, my nephew truly intuitively realized the power of the Nascent Soul Stage masters, and also understood why Uncle Jiu must go to Liuyun Continent to practice in the Immortal Realm."
"I remember that Uncle Jiu once taught my nephew how to improve the family monks' sense of identity and loyalty to the family. The best way is to give them a way to make progress and let them know that as long as they are loyal to the family and pay enough for the family,
With your contribution, you can continue to improve and reach a higher level through the help provided by your family."
"My nephew now understands Uncle Jiu's true intention of teaching my nephew this way, and understands your good intentions!"
"You are not abandoning the Zhou family, but you are going to carry everything on your own and open up a path to immortality for the descendants of the Zhou family that leads directly to the true immortal road, a road to heaven full of hope and light!"
Zhou Guangxiang looked at Zhou Yang with reverence, his expression was excited, full of admiration and admiration, and he proudly expressed his feelings in a passionate tone.
Is that what you thought?
Zhou Yang looked at his nephew who was looking at his nephew with admiration like a fanboy, and he felt a sense of secret joy in his heart.
The main reason why he went to Liuyun Continent to practice in the Immortal Realm was of course to improve his cultivation and make it easier to find the various spiritual objects he needed.
The second is to open a road to the outside world for the Zhou family, so that the younger generations of the Zhou family can step out of the boundless sand sea and experience the breadth and excitement of the outside world like themselves.
As for why one person can resist everything and open up a path to immortality for the family's descendants, this is purely an overthinking exercise by Zhou Guangxiang.
Maybe after he becomes an immortal and becomes an ancestor, he can say this.
But now, it's okay to talk about it in private. If word gets out, I'm afraid it will become the laughing stock of a high-level monk circle.
Now, in response to Zhou Guangxiang's overthinking answer, Zhou Yang did not deny anything, but nodded slightly and expressed his opinion.
"As long as you understand this, with the current power of the Zhou family, this boundless sea of sand and immortality has now become a cage that traps us. What we will do in the future is to break this cage and contact the broader world outside.
"
"Uncle Jiu, I can be the hammerhead to break this cage, but after being released from the cage, whether the Zhou family can survive in the more cruel world outside still depends on your own abilities."
"Li Hong has done a very good job in the Far West when it comes to how to lead a family to survive and develop in an environment surrounded by strong men. This time Fuyun mother and son are also back together. You can learn about it through them.
From the experience of the Zhou family over the years, we can learn useful experience and measures to help you optimize your family management methods."
"You must have learned about the previous wars between the Great Light Immortal Palace and the Niguang Alliance in the far west. As far as Uncle Jiu knows, the war situations among the monks in the major immortal worlds in this world are similar to this.
, in the future, when the Zhou family leaves the boundless sea of sand to cultivate immortals, they will inevitably participate in the monks' war. You can organize more family monks to conduct large-scale war drills in the future and form a family tradition. In this way, a lot of blood will be shed when you really go out in the future.
.”
"This may be the last time Uncle Jiu will teach you these things. From now on, the Zhou family will be completely left to you!"
When Zhou Yang finished speaking, he couldn't help but let out a sigh. There was reluctance, nostalgia, and a sense of relief.
As his cultivation level got higher and higher, he had more and more things to do in cultivation, and he really didn't have much free time to worry about his family's affairs.
At that time, he would rather learn a few more magical powers, or improve his weapon refining and talisman making skills, or even accompany his Taoist companions to travel to the world of immortality. It was much better than worrying about these things.
The main thing is that the above-mentioned things he does are beneficial to his practice and he can actually benefit from them.
Worrying about family affairs will not only be of no benefit to your own practice, but may also stifle the talents of younger monks in this area.
The Zhou family has developed to this point, and various systems have been perfected. Zhou Yang does not feel that if he does it himself, he can do much better than Zhou Guangxiang.
As he said, the reason that restricts the Zhou family from going further is the geographical environment of the boundless sand sea cultivation world, and this is not something that he and the Zhou family have the ability to change and break now.
In this case, he can only temporarily withdraw and work hard to improve himself. After gaining enough strength to break this shackles, he can lead the Zhou family to break through the shackles and enter a new world.
Before that, the Zhou family only had to stabilize the internal situation, and in this regard, Zhou Yang believed that his nephew Zhou Guangxiang could do it.
Zhou Guangxiang already understood his thoughts at this time, and fully understood and agreed with his choice.
Therefore, after listening to his last words of warning, Dangjie stood up and bowed deeply to him, and said solemnly and solemnly: "My nephew can only do my best to protect the family for Uncle Jiu and wait for Uncle Jiu."
The day has come when the king will return!"
"It's the return of enlightenment!"
Zhou Yang corrected him.
Zhou Guangxiang quickly changed his words: "Yes, my nephew can only do my best to protect the family for Uncle Ninth and wait for the day when Uncle Ninth returns from enlightenment!"
Then the uncle and nephew looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.
Next, Zhou Yang did not stay in the Immortal Cultivation World of Boundless Sand Sea for too long. After leaving everything to Zhou Guangxiang, he took his disciple Lu Xuewei and five young monks from the Zhou family to the Immortal Cultivation World of Liuyun Continent.
After leaving this time, Zhou Yang left the "Fantasy Cloud Boat" magical weapon to Zhou Guangxiang, so that it would be convenient for the Zhou family monks to cross the Duanyun Mountains to the Liuyun Continent to cultivate immortality.
Unless something big happens in the Boundless Sand Sea Cultivation World and something happens that Zhou Yang has to come back to solve, he will not come back easily. At that time, the task of connecting the two places can only be left to Zhou Guangxiang and other Purple Palace monks.
to bear.
The uncle and nephew have already agreed that every thirty or fifty years, someone will go to the Immortal Cultivation Realm of Liuyun Continent to find him to report some of the family's situation, and take away various spiritual objects purchased for the family from him.
Without the magic weapon "Huan Yunzhou", Zhou Yang led many people to cross the Duanyun Mountains at one time, which turned out to be a lot more dangerous. He ran into monsters that suddenly appeared several times on the way.
Fortunately, because of his strong spiritual consciousness, he could always detect the presence of monsters in advance, and either attack boldly to capture them, or avoid them in time, so nothing happened.
After arriving in the Immortal Realm of Liuyun Continent, Zhou Yang separated from his apprentice Lu Xuewei when he was in Zhenyue Immortal City.
It was no longer convenient for Lu Xuewei to appear in the territory of the "Liuyun Merchant Alliance" again, so Zhou Yang asked her to take the five descendants of the Zhou family who were accompanying her to Xianyang City to settle down and wait for his next arrangement.
He himself went straight to Liuyunxian City.
When he arrived outside Liuyunxian City, Zhou Yang, who had disguised himself as a monk from the Far West, discovered the wanted order issued by the Guo family for him. However, the appearance on the wanted order was the same as the one he had last time in disguise.
The way it looks after.
The Guo family was not stupid. They guessed that he might be disguised, so the wanted order also included Lu Xuewei's portrait, and also included the magic weapon and magical power information he used in the battle outside "Yanyun Mountain".
written on it.
It's a pity that this kind of wanted order does not even have the specific name of the wanted person. Its symbolic meaning is greater than its practical significance. It is strange that the person can be found.
When the Beast Control Sect wanted Zhou Yang, they put all his information on the wanted notice. It was just a bad luck to catch him once.
After all, the world of immortality is too big, there are too many cultivators, and the mobility is very high.
Unless you have the blood, hair, etc. of the wanted person and then use various occult means to track them, if you want to find the person by issuing a wanted warrant, you are really looking for a needle in a haystack. Whether you can find the person depends on luck.
However, just in case, Zhou Yang was not in a hurry to meet the Taoist companion Xiao Ying. He just reported her safety through the "Lingxi Jade Pendant" and then started shopping in Liuyun Fairy City.
He came here this time and brought all the twenty-three spiritual fruits from the Zhou family's "Condensing Yuan Fruit" tree, which were all used to refine the Foundation Building Pill.
As for the refining of dozens of furnaces of foundation-building pills, even if there are main materials, the auxiliary materials required cannot be collected in ordinary places.
Fortunately, he is now in Liuyun Immortal City, a place where most of the spiritual objects in the world of immortality can be bought with spiritual stones.
After scattering hundreds of thousands of low-grade spiritual stones, he purchased a full thirty auxiliary materials for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Because monks from sects and families from all over the Immortal World of Liuyun Continent often come to Liuyun Immortal City to purchase bulk materials, Zhou Yang's purchase of large quantities of materials for refining Foundation Establishment Pills did not arouse anyone's suspicion.
His cultivation at the Golden Core stage is enough to stop many people with ulterior motives from having any bad thoughts.
If he didn't want to cause trouble in a high-profile manner, Zhou Yang would even want to post information on the "Yi Gemstone" in the central business district of Liuyunxian City, asking for a large amount of money to purchase the "Jade Liquid Golden Elixir".
You must know that he currently carries nearly five million low-grade spiritual stones!
The "Easy Gemstone" is a special magic weapon. If a cultivator needs any treasure that cannot be purchased through normal channels, he can pay a certain usage fee and enter the name of the thing he wants and the price he is willing to pay.
, so that as long as someone is willing to take action, the "Yi Gemstone" guardian can learn the contact information left by the person who wants to buy the treasure, and contact the transaction by himself.
It's just because there is no guarantee for this kind of transaction. Once you choose to trade privately, you may be in danger of being killed and stealing the treasure if you are not careful.
Now Zhou Yang just wants to find a place to quietly learn the "Canglong Body Refining Technique" and several other magical powers. After he has done these things well and his strength has greatly increased and he is not afraid of any monks of the same realm, he will naturally come to Liuyun again.
A trip to the fairy city, spending a lot of money to buy all the treasures you want.
After purchasing the things, Zhou Yang sent a message to Taoist companion Xiao Ying, asking her to come out of the cave to meet him. Then the two of them left Liuyun Immortal City and rushed to Xianyang City.
The two of them had been traveling for several days, and not long after they officially flew out of the territory of the "Liuyun Merchant Alliance", Zhou Yang suddenly stopped, looked at the Taoist companion next to him with a serious face and asked: "Ying'er,
Did you really follow my instructions and come out without notifying the Liu family?"
Xiao Ying has been a Taoist couple with him for many years. When she heard him suddenly ask this question, she immediately realized something. Her pretty face turned pale and she shook her head and said: "No, since I received the news from your husband, I have been doing what you asked me to do."
He said that he put the elixir he had recently refined for the Liu family and the cave entrance and exit token in the cave, and did not tell the Liu family any news until he left."
"In this case, my husband understands, you can protect yourself with all your strength later, stay with my husband, and never leave the auspicious clouds at my feet."
Zhou Yang nodded slightly, told the Taoist couple a few words, then smiled coldly and said solemnly: "Since there are people who are tired of living and want to die, let's help them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to understand that his whereabouts had been discovered. Twenty or thirty miles behind him, a white light suddenly flashed, and an ugly man with a ferocious scar on his right face appeared.
Despite his ugly appearance, this ugly man was actually at the seventh level of the Golden Core. Moreover, his unique appearance made Zhou Yang feel familiar after seeing him.
After he recalled where this sense of familiarity came from, he couldn't help squinting his eyes and asked: "Your Excellency, you are the Wu who once slaughtered Luo Xing Sect and plundered Red Moon City, and was nicknamed [Tattooed Man Slaughter]"
Biao?"
"Tattooed Man Slayer" Wu Biao, whose true origin is unknown, once single-handedly massacred the Luo Xing Sect, a small sect with Jindan monks, killing all 708 disciples in the Luo Xing Sect's sect at that time, and no one escaped.
.
Later, he sneaked into the Red Moon Immortal City, killed the golden elixir-level monks guarding the town, and plundered the entire Immortal City, killing hundreds of people.
These are only the two most evil things that Wu Biao, the "Tattooed Massacre", has done. He has also done countless other evil things, and he probably has not even counted them.
This person is extremely vicious and is wanted by many major forces in the Immortal Cultivation World of Liuyun Continent. The reason why Zhou Yang thinks this person looks familiar is because when he entered Liuyun Immortal City, he saw the warrant next to the Guo family's wanted order for him.
This person's arrest warrant.
And if he remembered correctly, the value of this person's head was not much lower than his.
At this time, facing Zhou Yang's question, the scar-faced man Wu Biao trembled slightly with the earthworm-like scar on his face, looked at him with sharp eyes and replied: "Since you know me, you are still so calm, see
Come on, you are just as they said, and you cannot be treated like an ordinary middle-stage golden elixir monk!"
them?
Zhou Yang's face was startled, and then he looked thoughtful.
