Chapter 6: Attack of the Monster Beast

The failure of refining the weapon for the first time did not dampen Zhou Yang's enthusiasm, because he had never imagined that he could succeed in the first attempt.

If the art of weapon refining were so easy to master, the profession of weapon refiner would not become the most popular profession in the world of immortality.

It is impossible for any weapon refiner, even the most talented one, to succeed in refining the weapon for the first time.

Most weapon refining masters have a little talent for refining, and then rely on countless materials to accumulate weapon refining skills.

Therefore, in the world of immortality, among those casual cultivators who have no sect or family, there are very few weapon refiners and alchemists, because they simply cannot afford the waste of materials and money required to learn these two skills.

Even for a foundation-building family like the Zhou family with foundation-building monks, it is very difficult to train a second-level weapon refiner who can truly make money. They must select talented children and then invest a lot of money.

Before Zhou Yang, there were many monks of the "Xuan" generation in the Zhou family who learned the art of weapon refining, but only his seventh uncle Zhou Xuanlin was barely promoted to the second-level weapon refiner. However, he still had Zhou Minghan, a third-level weapon refiner, to guide him step by step.

I spent thousands of spiritual stones worth of materials to cultivate it.

However, the limit of Qi-training stage monks is the second-level weapon refiner. If you want to become a third-level weapon refiner, you must first become a foundation-building period monk.

Therefore, when Zhou Minghan said that he hoped Zhou Yang could inherit his weapon refining skills, the hidden meaning was that he hoped that he could succeed in building the foundation.

As long as he can successfully build the foundation and show some talent in weapon refining, Zhou Minghan is sure to turn him into a third-level weapon refiner even if he is smashed with spirit stones!

Of course Zhou Yang didn't know this. He just felt that the materials for making weapons were hard to come by and it was a pity to waste them. Therefore, after the failure, he did not rush to try again immediately. Instead, he packed up the scraps in the pot and carefully summed up his experience and lessons.

Only after he felt somewhat confident did he start a new attempt.

Fail like this, summarize, fail again, summarize again...

After seventeen failures, Zhou Yang finally succeeded in refining a finished [Qingfeng Sword] and officially became a first-level weapon refiner.

With the first successful experience, Zhou Yang's success rate will be much better when he refines the weapon again. Basically, he can succeed once in ten times.

When he refined it hundreds of times and controlled the success rate to two-tenths, he stopped refining the first-level magic weapon [Qingfeng Sword] and changed to refining another first-level magic weapon [Qingfeng Sword].

Flame Knife].

The main material of the first-level magic weapon [Flame Knife] is also fine iron, but at the same time, two-tenths of the fire-attribute spiritual gold red copper must be mixed. After the magic weapon is completed, the innate realm monk holds the magic weapon and injects the innate true energy.

It can activate flames to adhere to the knife and cause burning damage to the enemy, and it can also deal with some ghosts that cannot be attacked by simple physical attacks.

The refining process of [Flame Knife] is roughly the same as that of [Green Edge Sword]. The difference is that when refining [Flame Knife], the restriction placed in the blade is not [sharpness], but [flame] restriction.

Although Zhou Yang had a successful experience in refining the [Qingfeng Sword], he still failed to refine the [Flame Knife] for the first time.

However, he summed up the experience of failure and succeeded by luck the second time. After dozens of refining attempts, he successfully refined the [Flame Knife] with a yield rate of over 20%.

At this time, there were still a lot of basic weapon-refining materials given to him by the old patriarch, but he did not continue to refine them. Instead, he used the finished magical weapons that he had refined, as well as the weapons that he had summarized while refining them.

The experience, as well as the letter written to his parents, were given to Zhou Qi, a fellow family monk who came to collect the output of the concentrated iron ore, and asked him to take it back to the family and give it to the old patriarch and pass it on to his parents who were far away.

Zhou Qi ranks third in the "Yuan" generation of the Zhou family. Both of his parents are ordinary mortals. He is thirty-two years old this year. However, because the quality of his spiritual roots is only low-grade, he has only reached the third level of Qi training with mediocre cultivation.

, there is no hope of building a foundation in this life.

After he heard about Zhou Yang becoming a first-level weapon refiner, he was naturally surprised at first, and then he took the things with joy and nodded vigorously: "Ninth brother, don't worry, I will definitely bring the things and letters to the old patriarch.

With my uncle and aunt."

After speaking, he paused, and then said earnestly and earnestly: "But you must also practice well and don't focus all your energy on refining weapons. You are the hope of our entire Zhou family. The elders and

We brothers and sisters are counting on you to successfully build the foundation and lead our Zhou family to continue on!"

"What Third Brother said is that I will work hard to practice and will never let my elders down!" Zhou Yang nodded and responded with a serious face.

"As long as you know what's going on, I'll leave first."

Watching his clan brother Zhou Qi leave, Zhou Yang controlled the formation to restore it to its original state, and behind closed doors he read the long letter that his parents had asked his clan brother to bring him.

Zhou Yang's father, Zhou Xuanhao, devoted himself to spiritual practice in his early years. It was not until he was over sixty that he realized that he had no hope of building a foundation, so he followed the advice of his family elders to marry and have children.

It happened that at that time, his mother Lin Yuting was being hunted by her enemies, and she fled near the Yuquan Lake Oasis and was rescued by them. The two became married and gave birth to Zhou Yang within a few years.

Because both of them are immortal cultivators, the first child was lucky enough to detect a medium-quality spiritual root. From then on, Zhou Yang became the heart of the parents.

It's melted, and the baby is incredible.

It is precisely because of the loving care of his parents since he was a child that Zhou Yang, a time traveler with twenty or thirty years of memories of his previous life, slowly let go of everything in his previous life, and accepted and recognized his parents in this life from the bottom of his heart, and recognized the entire Zhou family.

.

In order to allow this son to go further in spiritual practice than the two of them, Zhou Xuanhao and Lin Yuting did not have any other children since then, and focused all their energy on earning spiritual stones and taking care of Zhou Yang.

.

Later, when they discovered that Zhou Yang had the gift of precocious wisdom and could take care of himself, the couple handed him over to the care of the elders of the clan, and then stayed in the family's shop in Xiuzhefang City all year round, using

The alchemy and brewing skills he mastered earned him spiritual stones for his family and his son.

As a "experienced person", Zhou Yang understands the thoughts of the couple Zhou Xuanhao and Lin Yuting very well.

Just like his parents in his previous life left his hometown to work in the city at a young age in order to support his education, everything Zhou Xuanhao and Lin Yuting are doing now is also to build a foundation for him in the future and to be able to advance on the path of spiritual practice.

Go further.

Therefore, he has never resented not being able to see his parents all year round. Instead, he writes many letters every year to his parents and asks his family elders to tell them about his daily life experiences. He knows that these seemingly ordinary and boring things are just

What parents want to see most.

"Yang'er, Qingping Mountain is far away from the family. You must think twice before taking any action, and everything should be done to protect yourself..."

"Son, the business of mom's restaurant has been getting better and better recently. The hunger marketing method you told mom last time is really great. My son is indeed a genius. He will definitely become a foundation-building monk in the future. No, he will definitely.

Become the ancestor of the golden elixir stage!"

Zhou Yang read the letter written by his parents to him word by word, with a sincere smile on his face. A simple letter from his parents inspired him far more than a thousand words from others.

After reading the entire letter, he carefully put the letter away and whispered to himself: "There are still two years left. When I complete the remaining two years of garrison duty, I will return to my family and prepare to break through to the seventh level of Qi training. As long as

After breaking through to the seventh level of Qi training and advancing to the later stage of Qi training, I applied to the old patriarch to station in Fang City, and then our family can be reunited!"

On the other side, when Zhou Qi returned to the family with the magic weapon and experience refined by Zhou Yang and handed it over to the old patriarch, he immediately attracted Zhou Minghan's great attention.

He personally inspected the magic weapons that Zhou Yang refined one by one, pointed out the shortcomings and gave suggestions for improvement, and gave answers to the questions Zhou Yang recorded on the weapon refining experience one by one, and then asked a

The family elder of the "Light" generation personally made a trip and delivered some higher-level weapon refining materials and experience to Zhou Yang.

"Hahaha, Xiao Jiu, you are so impressive. I have lived for hundreds of years, and this is the first time I see the old patriarch so happy and paying so much attention to a younger generation. Now your name as Qilin'er of the Zhou family has spread throughout the clan.

, even the secular tribesmen are talking about your deeds!"

The "Guang" elder of the Zhou family who is responsible for delivering things to Zhou Yang is named Zhou Quan. He is the third among his peers and the second elder among the eight elders of the Zhou family.

The old man is already one hundred and twelve years old, very close to the lifespan of a monk in the Qi training period. If Zhou Minghan hadn't personally ordered him to go there by name this time, no one in the family would have dared to disturb this dying monk.

elder.

"It's so hard for Third Grandpa to make this trip. It's really a sin for my grandnephew, it's really a sin!"

Zhou Yang looked at the old man who was laughing so hard that his mouth was leaking. He was moved and sighed secretly at the same time.

He knew that if it weren't for the late-stage qi-training monks in the family who all had their own tasks, the old patriarch would never have allowed Zhou Quan, an old man who was about to retire, to make this trip.

Zhou Quan's arrival not only showed that the old patriarch and the family valued him, but also exposed the family's shortcomings in available manpower.

"Hehehe, I'm old. It doesn't matter if I pass away tomorrow. If I can see an outstanding descendant like you in the family before I pass away, I can die with peace of mind!"

Old man Zhou Quan smiled cheerfully, reached out and patted Zhou Yang's shoulder gently to show his closeness, but he had already taken life and death lightly.

However, he said this, and after the next second, he couldn't help but sigh with regret: "It's a pity, it's a pity that I can't wait until the day when you build the foundation, otherwise I will be shameless when I die and go to hell.

Went to meet Ancestor Yuquan!"

Zhou Yang was silent, and his mood became heavy.

In the past one hundred years or so, several generations of monks in the Zhou family have been stuck in building the foundation, so that old people like Zhou Quan have developed deep obsessions in their hearts. The only obsession in their hearts is

I hope to see another foundation-building monk emerge from the Zhou family in my lifetime to take over from the old patriarch and protect the family.

His father, Zhou Xuanhao, actually had this obsession, otherwise he wouldn't have tried his best to earn spiritual stones outside to prepare for his future foundation building.

And just when Zhou Yang was thinking about how to break this heavy atmosphere, a ray of fire suddenly fell through the sea of ​​clouds outside Qingping Mountain and fell in front of him, from which came the extremely panicked voice of the steward of Zhou's family at the iron mine outside.

: "Master Immortal, help me, there is a powerful monster attacking the mine!"
