Chapter five hundred and sixty-six: Xiao Ying forms a pill!
Ye Yunshan is a casual cultivator.
She was a casual cultivator born and raised in Anguo. When she was born, Anguo had just returned to the "Tiandao Alliance". Of course, this had nothing to do with her.
As a casual cultivator, as long as you don't get involved in the war games of those big forces, and as long as you stay away from places that would bring you great danger, you are still very free and safe.
But that's for male cultivators.
As a female cultivator, and a rather pretty one at that, Ye Yunshan has encountered a lot of trouble over the years because of this.
In the past, when she was still young and her body had not yet grown, and at that time she was still taken care of by the old master who brought her into the world of immortality, there were not many people who had any ideas for her.
But when she was sixteen years old, the old master who brought her into the world of immortality died without any explanation and never came back. Since then, she lost her supporter and began to really come into contact with the dangers of this world of immortality.
Already.
This situation did not get better until she met her current eldest brother Wang Yanzhang.
Her eldest brother Wang Yanzhang is a well-known hero among the casual cultivators in southern Anguo.
The reason why the two met in the first place was because a few casual cultivators took a look at Ye Yunshan's beauty and followed her when she left the market, hoping to capture her and do evil things.
Ye Yunshan was also a fierce person who was soft on the outside but strong on the inside. She would rather die in battle than suffer humiliation, so she fought fiercely with the thugs to the death.
But there was a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, and her struggle was of no use. She was quickly injured by several thugs and lost the ability to resist.
However, just when she was desperate and wanted to reverse her magic and break her Dantian meridians to commit suicide, the tall and mighty Wang Yanzhang suddenly appeared to save her and killed the villains who wanted to do evil.
Since then, Ye Yunshan has recognized this big brother and has been following him, refusing to leave no matter what.
Later, Wang Yanzhang couldn't get enough of her, so he recognized her as his adopted sister, and the two of them started hanging out in the world of immortality together.
On this day, Wang Yanzhang was testing a second-level high-grade spell that he had newly mastered in a valley. Ye Yunshan suddenly ran over from outside with excitement and joy on her face, shouting as she ran: "Brother, stop quickly, I
I have great news for you."
Wang Yanzhang had not seen his adopted sister so happy for a long time. He immediately realized that something big must have happened, but there was no expression on his face. Instead, he smiled and joked: "What great news is worthy of you?"
Are you so happy? Could it be that you have finally figured it out and want to find someone to marry?"
"Huh, I've said it a long time ago. If you don't marry someone other than the eldest brother in this life, don't ever get rid of me, eldest brother!"
Ye Yunshan pouted her lips, snorted lightly, looked at Wang Yanzhang without concealing her feelings and said the words she had said countless times.
As before, after hearing her words, Wang Yanzhang immediately turned his head away in embarrassment, not daring to look into her fiery eyes.
I can only change the subject and say: "Tell me, what good news makes you so happy?"
"coward!"
Ye Yunshan cursed in a low voice, and then said with a look of joy on her face again: "Today I heard great news from Fairy Yuzhi, saying that one month later, the elder of the Yuqing Taoist Sect on Chongxuan Mountain [Qingyun San"
People] want to open the gates of the mountain to recruit a group of registered disciples. It is said that those who are successfully selected will have a high chance of receiving the foundation-building pill reward, and those who perform well are more likely to be accepted as official disciples!"
When Wang Yanzhang heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and he seemed to be tempted.
But soon he thought of something again, and couldn't help but frown and said: "But Anguo is now owned by the [Tiandao Alliance], and Chongxuan Mountain is an enclave under the jurisdiction of the Yuqing Dao Sect. If there is another conflict between the two sides in the future, I'm afraid,
The other party will never stick to this place."
"If we are selected to be his registered disciples, if we cannot defend Mount Xuan, that [Qingyun Sanren] will naturally be able to walk away. I am afraid we will not be able to escape the liquidation of the [Tiandao Alliance]!"
Ye Yunshan was slightly stunned when she heard what he said, but she didn't think so much.
After she heard the news, she only thought about the benefits of being selected as a registered disciple of the Golden Core Monk. She never thought that she would be involved in a war between two super powers.
But she seems to be more open-minded than Wang Yanzhang on this matter.
She shook her head slightly and said: "These are just your inferences, big brother, and wars between big forces such as [Tiandao Alliance] and Yuqing Dao Sect are not common. They may not happen once in hundreds of years. We may lose our life span in the future."
I can’t even see it even if I sit down.”
After saying that, she looked at Wang Yanzhang with a worried look and said: "Brother, you were unlucky last time and failed to build the foundation. All your years of savings were destroyed. Now you are about to turn sixty in four or five years. If
If you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to build a foundation in the future!"
That's right, Wang Yanzhang is now a rare monk who has mastered the tenth level of Dzogchen Qi. He spent his life savings to buy a foundation-building pill five years ago, but he had bad luck and failed to build the foundation.
As a casual cultivator, it is very difficult to be able to collect enough spiritual stones to purchase a foundation-building pill before the age of sixty. If you want to buy a second one in a short period of time, it is almost impossible.
It's impossible to do.
Wang Yanzhang had originally planned that after he mastered a few more second-level high-grade spells, he would set out to become a monster hunter in places where monsters gathered, and try to collect enough spiritual stones to buy a monster before he turned eighty.
Take a foundation building pill.
However, monster hunters are a high-risk profession. It is impossible to be a monster hunter and still alive for twenty years in the Qi training period. Although Wang Yanzhang has reached the tenth level of Qi training, he does not have much confidence in this.
.
Especially, if he becomes a monster hunter, Ye Yunshan will definitely follow him. At that time, Wang Yanzhang will not have much confidence that he can ensure the safety of his adopted sister in the extremely dangerous monster hunting operation.
Therefore, after hearing Ye Yunshan's words, he couldn't help but relax his frown, and nodded slowly: "It's because of my brother that I think too much. Everything has pros and cons. We can't just get the benefits without taking the risks!"
"Then, brother, have you agreed to go to Chongxuan Mountain to participate in the selection?"
Ye Yunshan looked at Wang Yanzhang in surprise, her eyes full of joy.
"Agreed, let's pack up and set off in a few days."
Wang Yanzhang nodded and quickly decided on the departure date.
This same scene is playing out in the casual cultivating circles of Anguo and Changguo.
More than a month later, when the day came for the "Qingyun Sanren" to select registered disciples, no less than a thousand people had gathered in the open space temporarily opened outside Chongxuan Mountain as the selection venue.
Among them were casual cultivators who came to participate in the selection like Wang Yanzhang and Ye Yunshan, as well as cultivators from various families and sects who came to watch the excitement after hearing the news. There were even some foundation-building cultivators among them.
Of course, monks above the Zifu level will definitely not come here.
Zhou Yang, who goes by the pseudonym "Qingyun Sanren", actually doesn't pay much attention to this recruitment of registered disciples. After all, he is actually just recruiting a group of free coolies.
Therefore, he also relaxed the recruitment conditions for registered disciples. As long as they are clean-blooded monks, under the age of sixty, with pure and reliable character, regardless of gender, regardless of their qualifications, they can participate in the selection. In the end, twenty people will be selected.
.
The selection method is also very simple. Those who are good at spiritual planting skills and have upgraded their spiritual planting skills to the second level of high-grade can be admitted without taking the test.
Those who have reached the second level of Lingzhifu skills will be given priority for admission. The last resort is the fighting method commonly used in the world of cultivating immortals to select disciples.
Zhou Yang did not personally select these registered disciples. The people responsible for selecting the registered disciples were Zhou Ronghua and Zhou Rongxiang, who had already successfully established the foundation.
At this time, thirteen years have passed since Zhou Yang moved to Chongxuan Mountain. Zhou Ronghua, Zhou Rongxiang and other five descendants of the Zhou family who followed him to Liuyunzhou to cultivate immortals, three of them have reached the ninth level of Qi training and have taken the Foundation Establishment Pill for impact.
The foundation building period began, but only Zhou Ronghua and Zhou Rongxiang successfully built the foundation.
Now, the two people who successfully built the foundation have naturally become the leaders of the monks on Chongxuan Mountain starting from Zhou Yang and his wife, responsible for managing the other three people and this group of new disciples who are about to start.
The selection lasted for one day and ended. Wang Yanzhang and Ye Yunshan were both lucky enough to become one of the twenty people.
Among them, Wang Yanzhang was able to get through with his tenth level of Qi training, while Ye Yunshan was admitted because of his status as a second-level mid-level spiritual cultivator.
There is no way, there are not many monks who know a certain skill among casual cultivators, especially the skill of Ling Zhifu, which requires spiritual fields and medicine gardens to improve, is not an option for casual cultivators.
Ye Yunshan also has talent in this area, and with some good luck, she only reached this requirement at the age of thirty-two.
After the selection, Wang Yanzhang, Ye Yunshan and the other eighteen selected monks were taken to Chongxuan Mountain by Zhou Ronghua and Zhou Rongxiang. There, they finally met Zhou Yang, whose pseudonym was "Qingyun Sanren", and Meng.
Xiao Ying wearing a veil.
The reason why Xiao Ying wore a veil was naturally because she was afraid that after these registered disciples saw her true face, the news would spread and expose Zhou Yang's identity.
This is not the first time that Wang Yanzhang and Ye Yunshan have seen a Golden Core monk, but it is the first time they have seen a Golden Core monk so close. Moreover, the other person is about to become their master and control their life and death.
.
Both of them were a little nervous.
"The fact that you are able to come here through selection means that you are all people with some talents and opportunities. Today I accept you as registered disciples and allow you to practice with me on Chongxuan Mountain. You should cherish this opportunity and work hard."
"I have asked the senior brothers and sisters who selected you to record your information. Three years later, I will personally assess you. The winners of the assessment will receive the Foundation Establishment Pill reward. There are only three people in this position."
"Okay, that's all I have to say. Regarding the rules here, your senior brothers and sisters will explain to you later. If you have any questions about practice in the future, you can also ask these two senior brothers and sisters."
On Chongxuan Mountain, after Zhou Yang gave a speech to these registered disciples, he and his Taoist companion Xiao Ying went back to the cave to practice respectively. Only Zhou Ronghua, Zhou Rongxiang and three other monks from the younger generation of the Zhou family were left to help these newcomers.
Disciple tells the rules.
There are actually not many rules on Chongxuan Mountain. It can even be said to be very few. Except that you cannot go down the mountain easily and cannot go up to the top of the mountain above 1,500 feet without permission, there are no big rules.
This made Wang Yanzhang and Ye Yunshan, who were accustomed to the free life of casual cultivators, feel relieved in their hearts. They also felt a little better about the so-called master who only met them and others once and said a few words.
At least from this aspect, the other person shouldn't be the kind of moody and difficult-to-serve person.
And through inquiring, they also found out what the master was talking about about the assessment.
This assessment is actually divided into two parts, the cultivation part and the spiritual planting skill part.
The assessment is based on the improvement progress of twenty people in the past three years. Since everyone has a different level of cultivation when they start, the criteria for assessing the progress of their cultivation are actually based on the opinions of Master Zhou Yang.
.
The Spiritual Planting Technique part is mainly aimed at monks like Ye Yunshan and others who rely on the Spiritual Planting Technique to get started. If they can significantly improve the Spiritual Planting Technique by one small realm, or even two small realms, within three years, they will be able to obtain Foundation Establishment.
The chances of Dan being rewarded are equally great.
This makes Wang Yanzhang very distressed, because his cultivation level has already reached the tenth level of Qi training, which cannot be promoted. Let alone three years, it is thirty years. As long as he does not succeed in building the foundation, his cultivation level will not be improved.
change.
So the only chance he had left seemed to be to learn the skills of Ling Zhifu.
From the two senior brothers and sisters, they have learned that the Sutra Pavilion on the mountain contains a complete inheritance of Ling Zhifu and other immortal cultivation skills, all the way to the third level. This is better than the high-end goods they can buy outside.
Much more.
Moreover, it is said that the master's wife, who has never spoken to her, is also a high-level spiritual planter, and often gives lectures to the disciples on the mountain to impart spiritual plantation techniques, and even answers questions about their practice.
"Brother, don't be impatient. Even if you can't do it, don't you still have me? I'm still very talented in spiritual cultivation. Now there is a systematic inheritance and large areas of experimental spiritual fields and spiritual objects on the mountain. In three years, I
I will definitely be able to improve my Ling Zhifu skills to the second level, and when I get the Foundation Establishment Pill, you can take it and hit the Foundation Establishment stage again!"
Having been together for many years and spending time with each other every day, Ye Yunshan soon discovered where Wang Yanzhang was worried, and then found an opportunity to be alone with each other, and gently enlightened him.
Unexpectedly, after Wang Yanzhang heard what she said, his face changed drastically and he said angrily: "How can that be done! I, Wang Yanzhang, am not the kind of person who would take away the opportunity from my sister!"
"Don't mention this again!"
After saying that, Wang Yanzhang directly threw up his sleeves and left without waiting for Ye Yunshan to say anything else.
Seeing this, Ye Yunshan was immediately angry and annoyed. She couldn't help but cursed at his leaving back: "Wang Yanzhang, you big fool, big fool, who wants to be the sister of a big fool like you? You are so stupid.
!”
Wang Yanzhang, however, quickly disappeared from her sight as if he had never heard of him.
Seeing this, she stamped her feet angrily and gritted her teeth secretly: "Just wait for me. After I get the Foundation Establishment Pill, I will naturally find a way to make you obey!"
After saying that, a look of pride appeared on her face, and she hummed proudly: "Hmph, after you use my Foundation Establishment Pill to build the foundation, let's see if you still have the nerve to refuse my marriage proposal!"
However, what Ye Yunshan and Wang Yanzhang never expected was that what they discussed in private would be seen by Zhou Yang, who happened to be using his spiritual consciousness to observe the situation of various registered disciples on the mountain.
"It's interesting. I didn't expect that among these disciples, there is such an interesting pair of brothers and sisters. If I have a chance in the future, I would like to hear their stories!"
In the cave, Zhou Yang withdrew his consciousness and spoke about what he had just seen with a joking smile.
It wasn't that he deliberately peeked at the young lovers talking in secret, but because his practice was not going well just now and he was in a depressed mood, he wanted to see what the new registered disciples were doing.
Speaking of which, it has been thirteen years since he moved to Chongxuan Mountain. During these thirteen years, he has devoted himself to practicing the body-refining magical power "Canglong Body Refining Technique" in the cave.
With sufficient support from the spiritual blood of sixth-level dragons, and his own conditions being very suitable for this magical power, he progressed very quickly, and it only took eight years for him to reach the third level of magical power.
But in the next five years, he clearly felt that the speed of practicing this magical power had slowed down.
What depressed him the most was that he didn't know why this happened.
The effect of the sixth-level dragon's spiritual blood has not disappeared. Every time he practices, he can feel the increase in physical strength. However, five years later, he found that his progress was only a tenth of the way through.
According to this calculation, it will take him at least forty-five years to practice this magical power to the fourth level.
But the remaining dragon spirit blood in his hand can only support him to practice in the current way for ten years before it is exhausted!
This shouldn't be the case!
Zhou Yang knew that there must be something wrong somewhere, and he guessed that there might be something wrong with his practice method.
If you want to practice the "Canglong Body Refining Technique" to the fourth level, the method should be different from the previous one.
This information was obviously concealed and was not recorded in the practice method of this magical power.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yang couldn't help but frown and murmured to himself: "It seems that the only way to stop practicing the "Canglong Body Refining Technique" for the time being is to ask Senior Qingyang for advice next time.
Question, let’s see if he can help me find the reason.”
The most taboo thing in spiritual practice is to act recklessly, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but can also easily result in nothing.
When you find a problem, you need to stop temporarily and wait until you find a solution to the problem before continuing. This is the correct way to practice.
Zhou Yang has been cultivating along the way. Except for the fact that when he was a young monk in the Qi training stage and the foundation building stage, his family elders often gave him guidance on his practice, he has slowly walked through it step by step.
Therefore, he still has a lot of experience in the aspect of spiritual practice and will not easily go into a dead end.
There is a saying: the east is not bright, the west is bright.
Although the fourth level of "Canglong Body Refining Technique" is not as easy to cultivate as expected, one of Zhou Yang's major achievements in these thirteen years of practice is that he has also raised the natal magic weapon "Qianyang Golden Pagoda" to the fifth level.
Medium grade.
At this time, more than a hundred years had passed since he successfully formed the elixir. The main reason why he was able to warm up the natal magic weapon to this extent in such a short period of time was because the materials he used to refine the natal magic weapon were too high-grade.
Already.
You must know that under normal circumstances, if a piece of "Nine Heavens Mysterious Gold" falls into the hands of a sixth-level weapon refining master, it can easily refine a sixth-level magical weapon, and it is also a high-quality sixth-level magical weapon.
In this way, the "Cang Long Body Refining Technique" has been cultivated to the third level, and the natal magic weapon has been promoted to the fifth level of the middle level. Although Zhou Yang's cultivation level has not increased, his strength has increased a lot.
At this time, he was even vaguely looking forward to his first mission coming soon, so that he could see how strong he was now.
However, in the next three years, everything was calm. Zhou Yang did not receive any mission assignments from Xuanyang Immortal Sect or Yuqing Taoist Sect. Instead, after almost twenty years, his Taoist companion Xiao Ying
After recuperating, I finally went into seclusion again and launched an attack on the golden elixir stage.
Retreating to enter the Golden Core Stage was a major event, so Zhou Yang fully activated the mountain-protecting formation at Chongxuan Mountain, regardless of the fact that doing so would continue to consume a large amount of spiritual energy.
Anyway, except for the two high-level monks on Chongxuan Mountain, there are no other high-level monks. The consumption of spiritual energy by those low-level monks during their cultivation is almost negligible.
In this case, even if the mountain-protecting formation is open all year round, as long as it is not attacked and the consumption of spiritual energy is completely within the tolerable range, it will not be a problem if it lasts for at least ten or eight years.
And the mountain-protecting formation is fully activated. Before the formation is broken, Zhou Yang does not have to worry about Xiao Ying being disturbed in seclusion, nor does he need to deliberately go to guard her outside the seclusion room.
When the mountain-protecting formation was fully activated, Wang Yanzhang, Ye Yunshan and other registered disciples practicing on the mountain panicked, thinking that some powerful enemy was coming.
After learning that it was the kind-hearted master who caused Master "Qingyun Sanren" to activate the mountain protection formation to protect the Dharma during the attack on the golden elixir stage, these disciples quickly settled down, and then they all devoted themselves to Xiao.
Ying knelt down in the direction of the retreat cave, silently praying and blessing the master's wife to successfully form the elixir.
Although it was only a short three years since they started, these registered disciples have deeply remembered the kindness of the master's wife during these three years.
She often comes out to teach them spiritual planting techniques and even alchemy knowledge, and she will patiently answer questions raised by her disciples regarding their cultivation.
Even if some disciples are extremely clumsy in learning spiritual planting skills, she will not beat or scold them. Instead, she will let them try to practice other immortal cultivation skills, and she will help plead with their master to explain the matter.
The most important thing is that this master wife often gives some precious elixirs to those disciples who have performed well. Although those elixirs are only second-level elixirs that are easily available to her, this behavior makes a bunch of
The named disciples were extremely moved and grateful.
You must know that registered disciple is just a nicer name in the world of immortality. In fact, to high-level monks, this so-called registered disciple is a slave and a servant, who can beat and scold the humble existence that controls life and death at will.
These registered disciples on Chongxuan Mountain are all from casual cultivating backgrounds, and have a deep understanding of the coldness and softness of human beings in the world of immortality. That’s why they know what a great opportunity and good thing it is to meet a good master wife like Xiao Ying.
luck.
Therefore, even though they have only been together for three years, these people have already recognized this kind-hearted and kind-hearted master's wife from the bottom of their hearts, and they also hope that this kind-hearted and kind-hearted master's wife will be rewarded with good deeds, form a golden elixir in one fell swoop, and live a long life!
"These little guys still have some conscience. Finally, Ying'er didn't hurt them in vain!"
On Chongxuan Mountain, Zhou Yang looked at the disciples who were kneeling on the ground and praying sincerely for their Taoist companions to form elixirs, and couldn't help but nodded, feeling very pleased.
