Chapter 596: The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat!
Lu Xuewei, the official disciple, returned, and Zhou Yang happened to give her the task of teaching the registered disciples on the mountain, and then he went into the retreat room to comprehend the God-killing Sword Technique presented by Lu Xuewei.
As for Lan Cailian, after Zhou Yang agreed to help her purchase auxiliary pill-forming spiritual objects, she went into seclusion in a cave on the mountain, preparing to attack the ninth floor of the Purple Mansion.
Time goes by, and ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Ten years passed, and Zhou Yang finally successfully mastered the practice of the God-killing Sword Art.
Lan Cailian asked him to purchase the auxiliary elixir-forming spiritual objects. In ten years, he found two kinds, namely a "Coagulating Pill Grass" and a portion of the heaven and earth spiritual water "Xuanyin Spiritual Water".
After these things were delivered to Chongxuan Mountain, they were all handed over directly to Lu Xuewei, and Zhou Yang had not touched them.
Even when Zhou Guangxiang brought several members of the Zhou family to Chongxuan Mountain during this period, he was never seen. He only received some prepared "Hidden Spirit Incense" from Xiao Ying and left on his own.
In the next thirty years, Zhou Yang never left the retreat room. No matter who came, Xiao Ying and Lu Xuewei would receive them on his behalf.
In the fortieth year of his retreat, Zhou Yang was successfully promoted to the sixth level of the Golden Core.
At this time, he had already practiced the "Hidden Dragon to Avoid Disaster Skill" to a small level, reaching the level that "Tattooed Man Slaughter" Wu Biao had reached.
The "Hidden Dragon Avoidance Technique" at the Xiaocheng level can not only conceal one's body and aura, but also avoid being tracked and locked by various tracking spells.
Zhou Yang took a fancy to the function of avoiding being tracked and locked by tracking spells, so he devoted himself to practicing this magical power during these decades of practice.
Coincidentally, not long after he developed this magical power, Zhou Guangxiang, who was traveling in the Immortal Cultivation World of Liuyun Continent, sent a letter asking for help, asking him to go to where he was to help deal with a Golden Core monk.
It turns out that Zhou Guangxiang has traveled to the immortal world of Liuyun Continent for more than 40 years. After covering most of the immortal world of Liuyun Continent, he finally found a spiritual substance called Dihua Spirit Milk during an adventure that could help him form elixirs.
Earthly Flower Spiritual Milk is a treasure formed from the essence of the earth. It can be used as an auxiliary elixir for earth-based martial arts monks, and the effect is quite powerful.
Zhou Guangxiang found a lot of Earthly Flower Spiritual Milk. In addition to his own use, he also had a lot of surplus, so he wanted to exchange this thing with others for other spiritual things that can assist in forming pills.
Unfortunately, he had just exchanged spiritual objects with someone at an exchange meeting. Not long after he left the fairy city, he was intercepted and killed by a Golden Core monk.
Fortunately, he had the trump card of the fifth-level puppet beast given to him by Zhou Yang to save his life. In the end, he relied on this puppet beast to gain a chance to escape. At the cost of abandoning the puppet beast, he used the secret method of "blood escape" to escape.
Born.
However, the continuous use of "Blood Escape Technique" also damaged Zhou Guangxiang's vitality, so now he can only hide in a fairy city to rest, and then hire someone to send the news to Chongxuan Mountain, asking Zhou Yang to help find this place.
After Zhou Yang received the news, he quickly rode the golden-winged thunder eagle to the fairy city where Zhou Guangxiang was. Then he gathered his cultivation aura and entered the city, where he met Zhou Guangxiang who was recovering from his injuries.
I don't know whether it's because he hasn't seen him for more than 40 years, or because this time he used the "Blood Escape Technique" to really damage his vitality, but Zhou Guangxiang's face has shown an obvious look of age.
When Zhou Yang saw him, his face was as white as frost and snow, and his face was wrinkled with wrinkles. He looked like a sixty-year-old man among mortals.
"What's going on? How could you lose so much energy!"
Zhou Yang looked at his nephew with a gloomy expression, anger rising in his eyes.
"My nephew was severely injured by that guy, and he used the blood escape technique three times in a row to escape the guy's pursuit. This loss of vitality cannot be made up for in a short time even if he takes the elixir refined by Aunt Ninth!"
Zhou Guangxiang's face turned pale as he told what happened, with a sense of resentment rising in his eyes.
He originally had less than a hundred years left to live, but this time he suffered such a heavy blow that he would not be able to recover without resting for ten or twenty years.
When his body fully recovers, there will only be one chance to reach the Golden Core Stage.
It is almost impossible for non-spiritual monks to succeed in forming an elixir once. This makes Zhou Guangxiang not hate the golden elixir-level monk who intercepted him.
Of course Zhou Yang felt the resentment of his nephew, and he also knew that no words of comfort would work at this time, so he asked directly: "Have you found out the origin of the other party?"
Zhou Guangxiang had been waiting for his words, and he said bitterly: "That guy is the ancestor of the Golden elixir of the Wu family, a great immortal cultivating family. His name is Wu Baitong. He has the cultivation of the fourth level of the Golden elixir. The Wu family is a beast-controlling sect.
The vassal cultivating family under his command, in addition to this Wu Baitong, also tames a fifth-level middle-grade clan spiritual beast, the green-scaled poisonous python."
"Oh, is it the Beast Controlling Sect again? It seems that our Zhou family and their Beast Controlling Sect are really in conflict with each other!"
Zhou Yang raised his eyebrows, and the look on his face suddenly became extremely strange.
Over the years, he had been cultivating hard on Chongxuan Mountain, and the Beast Control Sect had not given him any trouble, so much so that he had almost forgotten that he still had such an enemy.
Unexpectedly, before the feud between him and the Beast Control Sect was resolved, Zhou Guangxiang was harmed by a vassal monk of the Beast Control Sect. It seemed that there was really no way to resolve this feud.
He pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly and said: "I understand the situation. Your injury cannot be delayed. It is better to go back to Chongxuan Mountain to ask your ninth aunt for help in treating it. I will ask Jinpeng to take you back."
After he finished speaking, he paused, his face suddenly became stern, and he said sternly: "As for the Wu family, since they dare to murder the high-level monks of my Zhou family, Uncle Ninth, of course I can't spare them, and I will definitely take the head of Wu Baitong and give it to you.
revenge!"
When Zhou Guangxiang heard this, he immediately fell to his knees with excitement, kowtowed heavily and said, "Nephew, thank you Uncle Ninth for your great kindness!"
He never worried about whether Zhou Yang would help him take revenge, because he knew that Zhou Yang would definitely not sit idly by and ignore such a thing.
But Zhou Yang's unhesitating decision to fight a life-and-death battle with a monk of the same level for him still moved him deeply.
Next, Zhou Yang took Zhou Guangxiang out of the fairy city, and then released the golden-winged thunder eagle from the spirit beast ring, asking it to escort Zhou Guangxiang back to Chongxuan Mountain. He himself changed his appearance through the disguise mask, and converged his aura towards the Wu family's spiritual mountain.
Rushed over.
As a Jindan family and a vassal of a top sect like the Beast Control Sect, the Wu family is naturally extremely powerful.
In addition to Wu Baitong, a Jindan-level monk and a fifth-level mid-level clan spirit beast, the Jade Scale Poison Python, the Wu family also has five Zifu-level monks, including a ninth-level Zifu monk.
Wu Baitong intercepted and killed Zhou Guangxiang in order to seize the auxiliary pill-forming spiritual object on his body for the ninth-level descendant of the Purple Mansion to use.
At this time, because he failed to intercept Zhou Guangxiang and discovered that Zhou Guangxiang actually had a rare treasure like a fifth-level puppet beast on his body, the cunning Wu Baitong already knew that he had provoked a terrible enemy.
So after he returned to the family, he summoned all the high-level monks in the family to the family ancestral land to prevent the enemy from coming for revenge.
The ancestral land of the Wu family is located on a fifth-level mid-level spiritual mountain. Not only is the fifth-level mid-level mountain protection formation helped by the high-level formation masters of the Beast Control Sect, but there is also their clan spiritual beast, the green-scaled poisonous python.
In this way, Wu Baitong was still not completely relieved, so he quietly contacted a Jindan monk of the Beast Control Sect with whom he had made friends, and paid a lot of money to invite him to his ancestral land to secretly take charge.
Fortunately, because the matter involved the top sect of the Beast Control Sect, Zhou Yang also had more foresight and did not rely on his own strength to rush directly to the Wu family's ancestral land.
He went to Fangshi established by the Wu family in advance. He originally wanted to secretly capture the Wu family's Zifu period monk who was in charge of the city and inquire about the situation. However, when he did not find the aura of the Wu family's Zifu period monk in Fangshi,
, and immediately realized that the Wu family was ready for the enemy to come.
So he changed his mind and captured a Wu family foundation-building monk in the city to interrogate the information.
When Zhou Yang threatened him with the "Soul-Searching Technique", the Wu family's foundation-building monk had no choice but to honestly accept his "Mind Questioning Technique" for interrogation.
After interrogating this foundation-building monk and learning that all the high-level monks of the Wu family had been summoned to the ancestral land, Zhou Yang knew that the Wu family's ancestral land must have become a dragon's pond and a tiger's den at this time. If he went there rashly, he might not be able to get it.
The benefits go.
But this didn't bother Zhou Yang. After thinking for a while, he thought of a feasible strategy.
I saw that he changed his appearance and replaced it with a middle-aged man who was 70% similar to Zhou Guangxiang. Then he lowered his cultivation level to the fourth level of Jindan and appeared directly in Wujiafang City.
"Wu Baitong, don't think that you can escape by hiding in your lair. You plotted against my son. I will settle with you later. Today I will destroy a market in your Wu family as interest!"
In Wujiafang City, Zhou Yang appeared in Wujiafang City and shouted loudly, then directly destroyed the city's protective formation, and then ejected a stream of magic power, destroying the Dantian of all the Wu family monks in the city.
After doing all this, he waved his sleeves and collected all the spiritual stone goods in the shops belonging to the Wu family in Fang City, and left Fang City directly in the clouds.
From the time Zhou Yang showed up with a loud shout to the time he left in the clouds, only half a quarter of an hour passed.
After his figure completely disappeared, the surviving passers-by in the city recovered from the shock, and then all kinds of comments started to spread uncontrollably.
At this time, it had only been half a year since Zhou Guangxiang was attacked. The story of the battle between two high-level monks, Zhou Guangxiang and Wu Baitong, had long been spread in the nearby immortal world, but few people knew who the protagonist of that battle was.
.
At this time, through the information revealed by Zhou Yang's loud shout, some bright-minded people immediately guessed the truth of the matter, and then spread the word quickly.
It happened that at this time, all the monks of the Wu family in Fang City were deactivated by Zhou Yang. They wanted to stop such rumors that were detrimental to the family's reputation, but they did not have the strength to stop them. They could not even report to the family what happened here.
In the end, a foundation-building monk from the Wu family whose cultivation was abolished spent a lot of money to find a foundation-building monk in Fang City who was a good friend of the Wu family and took him back to the Wu family's ancestral land to report the news.
A foundation-building monk flying with a sword cannot go very fast, so when Wu Baitong learned about what happened in Wujiafang City, it was already more than two hours later.
"Fellow Daoist Gongsun, you are an elder of the Beast Control Sect and you are well-informed. Can you recognize this person?"
On Lingshan Mountain, the ancestor of the Wu family, after Wu Baitong sent the tribesmen who came to report the news to go down to rest, he went to Gongsun Xin, the golden elixir monk of the Beast Control Sect whom he invited to take charge, and showed him the portrait drawn by the tribesmen who reported the news.
"I am disappointed with Fellow Daoist Wu. I have never seen this person before. I think he is not from the nearby immortal world."
Gongsun Xin stared at Zhou Yang's disguised face in the portrait for a while, then shook his head and gave an answer that disappointed Wu Baitong.
When Wu Baitong heard this, he immediately said with a gloomy face: "According to the description of the descendants of Wu's family, this person's cultivation level should also be in the middle stage of Jindan. He may be at the fourth or fifth level of Jindan like Wu. He has now looted
The market of my Wu family has ruined the cultivation of dozens of members of my Wu family, and they also claim that these are just interest rates, which is really annoying!"
What are you so angry about?
Who told you that you didn't do your job cleanly and left something behind for others to catch? If it weren't for the demon pill you presented, I wouldn't be bothered to come here and listen to your nonsense!
Gongsun Zixin rolled his eyes for a moment and was very disdainful of Wu Baitong's words.
He understands the cause and effect of the matter. Wu Baitong's intention to kill people and seize treasures is not a big deal in his opinion. However, Wu Baitong's murder and seizing treasures did not kill the target, but instead attracted the revenge of the Golden elixir monk behind the target. This matter became troublesome.
Somewhat big.
If it weren't for the gift Wu Baitong gave him that he couldn't refuse, he wouldn't have come into this troubled waters.
But the enemy was short-handed. When he heard Wu Baitong's words, although he was very disdainful in his heart, he still said responsibly on his face: "Now that we know the appearance of the enemy, it will be easier. I can help Wu Daoyou take care of this."
Give the portrait to Senior Brother He, who is in charge of intelligence in the sect, and ask Senior Brother He to help investigate this person's origins. I believe there will be results soon."
When Wu Baitong heard what he said, his face suddenly relaxed, he smiled and cupped his hands and said, "With these words from Taoist Fellow Gongsun, Wu is really relieved."
As the saying goes, it takes a thousand days to be a thief, but not a thousand days to guard against a thief.
If the enemy's identity and origin are still unclear, not only will he dare not leave the family's ancestral land easily, but the middle- and high-level monks in the family will also be trapped here and not allowed to go out.
At that time, the Wu family's properties in various places will inevitably go into trouble, affecting the operation of the entire family.
But if the identity and origin of the enemy is clear, then whether it is war or peace, the Wu family can make arrangements calmly.
At this time, with Gongsun Xin's guarantee, Wu Baitong breathed a sigh of relief and said thanks, "Just in case, I would like to ask fellow Taoist Gongsun to continue helping Wu to stay in charge of the family for a while. Wu is going to Fangshi now."
At the same time, I want to appease people's hearts and clarify some rumors."
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Wu, as long as I'm here, nothing will happen to the Wu family!"
Gongsun Xin nodded slightly and agreed with pride.
"Then please leave it to fellow Taoist Gongsun."
Wu Baitong thanked him again and left the Wu family's ancestral land with peace of mind.
The purpose of going there this time was to show off his power and curb the rumors that were not good for the Wu family. Therefore, when Wu Baitong set out, he directly invited the green-scaled poisonous python tamed by the Wu family to ride on this giant hundreds of feet long.
The python flew to Fangshi.
The green-scaled poisonous python is a fifth-level monster, and its flying speed is no slower than that of a golden elixir-level monk flying on the clouds. He quickly carried Wu Baitong to Fangshi.
At this time, the monks in Fang City have not dispersed yet, and many monks want to know how the Wu family will handle this matter.
When Wu Baitong rode the fifth-level mid-level demonic beast, the green-scaled poisonous python, and descended from the sky to the ground, the middle and low-level monks in Fang City were immediately overwhelmed by the aura emitted by the green-scaled poisonous python. Those who had previously rumored to criticize Wu Baitong for killing
The monk who was worried about Baozhi was so frightened that his head almost retracted into his crotch.
"I Wu Baitong, I heard that someone here is slandering my reputation. Do you dare to stand up and let me see it?"
Above the raised head of the green-scaled poisonous python, Wu Baitong stood with his hands behind his back, scanning everyone in the city with cold eyes, and his voice was so cold that it made people's hearts tremble.
The reputation of a Golden Core Stage monk, coupled with the huge monster body of the Green Scale Poison Python, is more than enough to intimidate a group of middle and low-level monks who are not even at the Purple Palace stage.
When Wu Baitong saw this, he couldn't help but snorted: "Humph, what happened today, if I hear anything about it afterwards..."
His original intention was to threaten the monks here not to say anything harmful to himself and the Wu family that he heard today, but just in the middle of his words, he suddenly felt like being struck by lightning, and a scream of "Ah" came from Bi.
The scaled poisonous python fell on its head and fell to the ground.
hiss!
An extremely frightened snake hissed from the mouth of the green-scaled poisonous python. This fifth-level demonic python had already sensed the danger from Wu Baitong's attack. While spitting out a demonic wind, Wu Baitong was swept back to him, and at the same time, he spit out another
A green poisonous mist blew towards all the monks in the city.
The wisdom of fifth-level monsters is no less than that of humans. This green-scaled poisonous python has followed two generations of Wu family's golden elixir monks, and it is even more insidious and clever. The moment Wu Baitong was attacked, it judged that the enemy must be hiding his cultivation.
Among the monks in Liofang City.
It's a pity that it guessed the result correctly, but not the ending.
Zhou Yang really didn't pay much attention to a mere fifth-level mid-level monster.
He used the "Hidden Dragon Aversion Technique" to hide his figure and aura in Fang City. He secretly used the "God-killing Sword" to sneak attack and severely damaged Wu Baitong's soul. He immediately shouted loudly and knocked out all the middle and low-level people in Fang City.
The first-level monk then waved his hand and directly fired out a ball of golden real fire, burning the green poisonous mist into blue smoke.
Then he used various means to kill both Wu Baitong and the Jade-scaled Poisonous Python in less than half a quarter of an hour, and then calmly erased all traces of the battlefield before cutting off Wu Baitong's head and leaving with the trophies.
It was not until more than an hour after Zhou Yang left that Gongsun Xin, who had been galloping all the way after learning from the Wu family that Wu Baitong's soul tablet was broken, arrived at Fangshi.
"Who did this? Answer me, who did this!"
With his eyes fixed on Wu Baitong's headless corpse on the ground, Gongsun Xin waved his hand to wake up the middle and low-level monks who had been knocked unconscious by Zhou Yang's loud shouts, and asked about the situation with an angry expression.
Naturally, the result was that I couldn't find out what was going on.
Before Zhou Yang took action, everyone in the city was knocked unconscious by his loud shout before they could see his figure clearly. When Gongsun Xin asked, he didn't know who the murderer was except that he knew Wu Baitong was assassinated.
Of course, he could guess it even without asking.
Afterwards, Gongsun Xin took Wu Baitong's body and the portrait to the Beast Control Sect, and asked the Beast Control Sect's intelligence monks to help investigate the origins of the person on the portrait.
The result, of course, was that no such person was found.
From then on, Gongsun Xin still didn't understand that Wu Baitong and himself were fooled from the beginning to the end by the monk who killed Wu Baitong.
But at this time, even if he wanted to help Wu Baitong take revenge, he was unable to do so.
In the end, what he was able to do was to use his power within the Beast Control Sect to put the portrait of Zhou Guangxiang he obtained from the Wu family monks on a wanted mission, so that the disciples of the Beast Control Sect would notify him when they discovered this person.
It's just that the effect of such a private wanted mission depends entirely on the reward after completing the mission, and how much reward can Gongsun Xin pay for Wu Baitong, whom he only has some friendship with!
Regarding the fact that Gongsun Xin offered a reward for Zhou Guangxiang for Wu Baitong, Zhou Yang also learned about it by inquiring about the information from the Xuanqing Taoist Alliance after returning to Chongxuan Mountain.
He just smiled lightly and didn't care anymore.
After Zhou Guangxiang returned to Chongxuan Mountain, he entered a cave to retreat to heal his wounds. Few of the disciples on Chongxuan Mountain had seen him, let alone the disciples of the Beast Control Sect.
Besides Zhou Guangxiang, the only person who knows that he killed Wu Baitong is Xiao Ying, his Taoist companion. Obviously, neither of them will betray him.
"Guangxiang, you should recuperate here on Chongxuan Mountain. If you are going to form an elixir, remember to tell Uncle Jiu in advance that he will give up the cave for you to use as an elixir."
On Chongxuan Mountain, Zhou Yang, who returned safely, placed Wu Baitong's head and the fifth-level puppet beast recovered from his storage ring in front of Zhou Guangxiang, and softly told his arrangement.
"My nephew understands. Thank you Uncle Jiu for avenging my nephew!"
Zhou Guangxiang saluted him gratefully, and then burned Wu Baitong's head to ashes, finally understanding the grudge.
Zhou Yang looked at this scene, his mouth moved, and finally he just nodded slightly and said: "Then you can take a good rest. Uncle Jiu, I won't disturb your recovery."
Then he exited Zhou Guangxiang's cave and threw the body of the green-scaled poisonous python to the golden-winged thunder eagle and colorful peacock as food.
These two spiritual birds both like to eat the meat of these long worms. The meat of a fifth-level demon snake is also a great supplement for them, enough for them to eat for a long time.
"Ying'er, do you think I'm being a little unkind by doing this? I watched Guangxiang grow up, and he's a bloodline of my Zhou family. Logically speaking, I should take more care of him!"
In the bedroom of Zhou Yang's cave, Zhou Yang, who had just completed a double cultivation with his Taoist companion, suddenly became a little sentimental.
There are some things that he cannot say to outsiders, only to people like Xiao Ying who are beside him.
Zhou Guangxiang's elixir-forming matter is now very unfavorable to him, so he who had been hesitant about giving the jade liquid golden elixir in his hand to him for use has now decided not to let him use it, but to keep it for himself.
The eldest disciple Lu Xuewei will form elixirs and use them in the future.
When Xiao Ying heard what he said, she couldn't help but stretched out her hands to hug his shoulders, making the two of them stick together. Then she buried her head on his chest and whispered along with his words: "Yuye
The golden elixir was obtained by your hard work on the battlefield, and the power of disposal is entirely in your hands, so how can you say it is unkind?"
"And from a practical point of view, Xuewei's chances of forming an elixir in the future are obviously much greater than Guangxiang's. There is nothing wrong with leaving the Jade Liquid Golden elixir to her for use."
"Finally, husband, you also said that the God-killing Sword Technique that Xuewei presented previously was of great use to you, but you haven't rewarded her with anything yet. Isn't this Jade Liquid Golden Elixir a perfect reward for her?
"
"Hey, the palms and backs of my hands are full of flesh!"
Zhou Yang let out a long sigh, acquiescing to the Taoist companion's words.
