Chapter 61: Transferring to Cultivation Techniques
While his father Zhou Xuanhao took thousands of secular Zhou family members to the Baisha River Oasis to establish a family branch, Zhou Yang also bid farewell to the old patriarch Zhou Minghan and went to Haoyang Cave to take charge.
He had an agreement with the old patriarch Zhou Minghan that he could take over the position of patriarch, but Zhou Minghan would still help him handle some of the daily trivial matters of the family. If there were major issues that he, the patriarch, must make the decision, he would be notified to come back.
Discuss and decide.
From the Yuquan Lake Oasis to the Haoyang Cave Oasis, it takes several days to get there by riding a Shatuo Beast, but if you switch to flying with a sword, you can get there in less than two hours.
Regarding the flying speed of the sword, Zhou Yang's current level of cultivation at the foundation level can be used as a yardstick.
With his level of cultivation at the foundation level, the newly obtained third-level low-grade flying sword can fly thousands of miles in an hour without bringing anyone else with him.
However, flying at full strength like this consumes mana. With his first-level cultivation, he would need to stop to rest and recover mana after flying for two hours at most.
This is not to say that his mana can only support two hours of flight, but because he must reserve at least half of his mana at all times to deal with emergencies.
The speed of the immortal cultivator's sword flight is mainly related to three aspects.
The first is the cultivation level. The higher the cultivation level, the faster the sword will fly.
Next is the "Sword Controlling Technique" method. The better the method, the more obvious the speed increase.
The third is the type of flying sword. Note that it is type, not grade.
Under normal circumstances, the main function of the immortal cultivator's flying sword is combat, while flying with the sword only has a side effect.
But sometimes, after obtaining relatively unique materials, the weapon refiner will specially refine a flying sword that can only be used by monks to fly.
This kind of flying sword is usually equipped with multiple acceleration spells. If a cultivator in the early stage of foundation building wields such a third-order low-grade flying sword, the flying speed of the sword will be faster than that of a normal third-order mid-grade flying sword.
The monks in the middle stage of foundation building are much faster, and it is not completely impossible to compete with the monks in the late stage of foundation building.
However, materials for refining flying swords specifically for flying are rare, and there are not many weapon refiners who know how to make such flying swords. Therefore, there are still only a handful of monks who can possess such unique flying swords.
.
What's more, the flying method of high-level immortal cultivators is not limited to flying with a sword. The giant ship flying magic weapon in the hands of the ancestor of the Chen family is one of the flying methods commonly used by high-level monks when they are on the road.
More than a year later, the oasis here at Haoyang Grottoes has become a bit bigger. After Zhou Yang returned here, he first met with his eighth aunt Zhou Xuanyan, who has been here all year round, and explained what happened to the Zhou family recently.
, and said that he would also transfer Ba Gu’s son Zhou Yu to Haoyang Cave to create an oasis, which would be regarded as a reward for Ba Gu’s creation of an oasis.
After Zhou Yu narrowly escaped with his life during the bandit rebellion on the Baisha River Oasis, he had already developed a fear of going to the Baisha River Oasis. In addition, he was also planning to take a concubine and raise children this time, so Zhou Yang decided on the beauty of adulthood.
Let him come to Haoyang Cave to help his mother build an oasis.
Zhou Xuanyan was frightened when she heard that her son almost died, so when she heard Zhou Yang's arrangements, she was immediately grateful for his arrangements.
"The family is very short of people now. The construction of the oasis depends entirely on you, Eighth Aunt. In addition, when I set out, Thirteenth Aunt, Eighth Brother, and Eleventh Brother also migrated here with 10,000 mortals from the family. Wait.
After they arrive, they will help station here for five years. At that time, these tribesmen will be commanded by you, Ba Gu. The task given to you by the family is to create a small oasis that can accommodate 10,000 people within twenty years!
"
A small oasis that can support 10,000 people must have an area of at least one hundred square kilometers, and the current area of the oasis at Haoyang Grottoes is only a dozen square kilometers.
Therefore, the family tasks mentioned by Zhou Yang are not unimportant.
However, Zhou Xuanyan did not say anything more. Instead, she replied with a firm face: "Please rest assured, patriarch, as long as I am still alive in twenty years, the Haoyang Grotto oasis will be built as you wish."
When Zhou Yang heard this, he felt quite unhappy, because it was only then that he remembered that the eighth aunt was almost ninety years old. He set a time limit of twenty years, which was equal to the remaining life of the eighth aunt.
All will be contributed to this yellow sand desert.
"I'll leave everything to you, Ba Gu!"
He looked at the old woman whose hair had begun to turn gray, and bowed deeply.
Zhou Xuanyan said nothing and silently accepted this gift from him.
it is more than words.
After saying goodbye to his eighth aunt Zhou Xuanyan, Zhou Yang went to visit his second brother Zhou Bao, who was the mortal city lord.
It can be said that his second brother was a fool with good luck. More than a month before the bandits attacked the Baisha River Oasis, he happened to return to the family from the Baisha River Oasis with Ba Gu's husband Chen Ting, and was able to survive.
Now that I have become the mortal city lord, in less than a year, I have already married eight concubines, and even three concubines have become pregnant with children.
He looked at Zhou Bao, who had gained weight in less than a year, and then looked at the mortal women who had lowered their eyebrows and dared not look at him. He didn't have much to say, but nodded lightly.
He said: "Since the second brother likes his current life, he should enjoy the rest of his life. By the way, after the child is born, remember to ask Bagu to check whether he has spiritual roots."
When Zhou Bao heard what he said, he immediately looked at the three concubines with children with a smile on his face and nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, I will never forget this if I forget anything. I don't have much hope in this life."
I hope to give birth to a descendant with spiritual roots to pass on my bloodline. This is also the task that grandpa set for me before his death!"
Then you have to work hard!
Zhou Yang burst into laughter in his heart, and his originally dull mood suddenly became much more relaxed.
Now he somewhat understood the thoughts of those brothers in the family who wanted to take concubines and have children.
These people are busy taking concubines and giving birth to children. I am afraid that in addition to coveting the maternity subsidy fund, they also have the idea of producing an outstanding offspring to prove themselves.
They know that they will definitely not be able to compare with Zhou Yang, the patriarch of the clan, and they can only place their hopes on their descendants. If they can give birth to a descendant with high-grade spiritual roots, the person who will be the head of the Zhou family in the future will have to be
It will be their descendants.
Moreover, the current situation of the Zhou family is no better than before. Now the Zhou family has three foundation-building monks in charge, and they have developed the Haoyang Cave spiritual vein and the Red Flame iron ore vein. Both the number of powerful people and the financial situation are better than ever before.
.
In this case, anyone with a little bit of savvy would know that now is the best time to have offspring.
They are now giving birth to offspring, and when their offspring begin to practice and grow, the resources they will receive for practice will be much better than their own, and their paths in the future will be smoother and farther than theirs.
"This is a good thing!"
"Let Dali give birth. As long as you dare to give birth and can give birth, my Zhou family can afford to support you!"
"If God is so kind and allows my Zhou family to produce a top-grade spiritual root monk, then I, the patriarch, will laugh out of my dreams!"
With a smile on his face, Zhou Yang left Tucheng, where mortals gathered, in a good mood.
Haoyang Grottoes are still the same Haoyang Grottoes. Because after Zhou Xuanhao built the foundation, he went to the Yuquan Lake Oasis to rest and stay. Everything here is no different from before Zhou Yang left.
He has stayed here for eight years, spending almost a quarter of his life here. He naturally has feelings for this place, and he doesn't want to see this place change drastically as soon as he comes back.
However, after he comes back this time, the Haoyang Cave spiritual vein development plan will also start. After all, this is a third-level spiritual vein. If it is developed well, it will not be a problem to provide the family with a net income of several hundred spiritual stones every year.
of.
"There's no rush now. Thirteenth Aunt and his friends are moving with tens of thousands of mortals. They won't be able to get here in a few months. After they arrive, I'll go back to the family and ask Uncle Twelve to help open the medicine field."
Not too late."
After the foundation was established, his life span was suddenly extended to 240 years. Zhou Yang's mentality has changed a lot. He is becoming more calm and steady in doing things.
What's more, his most important thing now is not to develop the spiritual veins of Haoyang Cave, but to quickly change his practice methods to "Qian Yang Immortal Sutra". When it comes to the foundation building period, he can practice the same techniques as in the original Qi training period. The effect of practice is simply
It was terrible, and he had already had enough of this situation.
Of course, only he himself knows about the "Qian Yang Immortal Sutra". On the surface, the method he practices is still the "Golden Light Fiery Yang Technique".
As a technique created by a true immortal who has transcended the tribulation period, the "Qian Yang Immortal Sutra" is certainly many times more profound and mysterious than ordinary things like the "Golden Light Fierce Yang Technique", but Zhou Yang possesses the "Qian Yang Treasure Body"
, I was born with a perfect fit for this technique. When I practice this technique, it is much smoother than when I first practiced the technique during the Qi training period.
In just half a year, he completely transformed his magic power into "Qianyang True Essence" and completed the introductory practice of the technique.
Generally speaking, the exercises above the foundation-building stage will come with unique magical powers. For example, the "Golden Light Fierce Sun Technique" recommended by the old patriarch Zhou Minghan to Zhou Yang to practice will automatically give the monks two unique magical powers after completing the introductory practice.
One is a protective golden light similar to the "Golden Light Protection Technique", and the other is an offensive magical power "Fire Sun Fire Pearl".
Compared with ordinary spells, the magical powers attached to this kind of exercise have many advantages. One of them is that it comes with the exercise. As long as you practice the exercise to a certain level, you will automatically master this magical power without spending time on it.
study.
The second is that spells are released quickly and are generally instantaneous.
The third is that the power of spells will automatically increase as the monk's cultivation level increases. That is, if the monk breaks through to a higher level in the future, as long as he does not change his practice skills, the power of the spells will also be increased to a higher level.
After Zhou Yang completed the introductory practice of "Qian Yang Immortal Sutra", he also obtained two kinds of magical powers.
