When the external incarnation is first completed, it is during the Qi training period. It needs to be improved through practice like a real monk.
Moreover, the incarnation is not a real physical body, so you cannot take spiritual pills to increase your cultivation level. You can only improve your cultivation level by refining and absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The speed of its cultivation is related to the spiritual object used to refine the incarnation, and the place where the incarnation is practicing.
Environmentally related.
The advantage is that the incarnation has no real meridians, so as long as it is not allowed to do other things, it can almost continue to run the exercises and practice, unlike real monks who need to rest to relieve the pressure on the meridians and mental stress.
In addition, unlike real monks, the incarnation will not have any realm bottleneck restrictions, and even if it reaches the golden elixir stage, it will not form a golden elixir, and naturally there will be no Nascent Soul.
Because there is no golden elixir and Yuanying to store mana, even if the incarnation has reached the realm of cultivation, its mana will be weaker than that of a real monk. The specific amount of mana will be weaker depends on the spiritual object that the incarnation is refined and the practice.
It depends on several aspects such as the exercises.
The spiritual objects used in Zhou Yang's incarnation were seventh-level spiritual objects, and the exercises he practiced were also the top-level exercises that [Donglai Zhenren] relied on to become an immortal, the "Nine-Heaven Yuanyang Immortal Sutra of Immortality."
Therefore, in terms of mana, his incarnation is only about 10% weaker than the real monks of the same level. This can be said to be the limit of the mana of the incarnation without the golden elixir and Nascent Soul.
And because he lost a lot of essence, blood and vitality when refining the incarnation, and when he finally "enlightened the soul" for the incarnation, he tore apart part of his soul source, Zhou Yang went into seclusion for a long time after the incarnation was completed.
It took five years to get out of the country.
The reason he was able to get out of seclusion so quickly was because he used the [Ten Thousand Years Soul-nurturing Wood] obtained on the Fairy Island to restore the damage to his soul. Otherwise, let alone five years, even fifty years, he might not be able to heal the damage caused by tearing his soul apart.
The injury has fully recovered.
Fortunately, the [Ten Thousand Years Soul-nurturing Tree] he got was big enough, and he only used less than one-tenth of it for this time.
Five years have passed, and his incarnation has raised its cultivation level to the seventh level of foundation building. If this continues, it is estimated that in less than twenty years, his incarnation's cultivation level will reach the golden elixir stage.
I saw that the incarnation at this time could no longer look like the original wooden man.
His appearance was specially shaped by Zhou Yang to look like that in his previous life. He looked ordinary. If it weren't for his pair of purple eyes and long purple hair that were so conspicuous, no one would have even looked at him when he was thrown into a crowd.
And if it weren't for the fact that it didn't have the unique breath of flesh and blood of a living person, others wouldn't be able to tell that it was an incarnation.
After Zhou Yang looked at the body of the incarnation, he ordered in a commanding tone: "You can practice well here. Without my order, you are not allowed to leave the secret room."
"yes."
He transformed into a pair of purple eyes and took a look at Zhou Yang, then responded in a low voice.
In fact, with the intimate soul-soul connection between the body and the incarnation, there is no need for Zhou Yang to make such unnecessary moves.
However, he is still not quite used to this special state of two-in-one body and incarnation. He always feels that it would be more comfortable if he expressed it in words.
Shaking his head, Zhou Yang suppressed the distracting thoughts in his heart, turned around and walked out of the cave.
When he got outside, he scanned his consciousness and discovered that Jiang Fengxian was not practicing in the cave, but on the mountain, tending to the elixirs grown.
"Zhou Lang, you are finally out of seclusion, are things still going well?"
Upon discovering that Zhou Yang had left seclusion, Jiang Fengxian quickly put down what she was doing and returned to him. She smiled and asked him about his gains from this seclusion.
Of course, Zhou Yang would not hide such a major matter as refining his external incarnation from the person next to him, so Jiang Fengxian would ask this question.
"Everything goes well. Now that the incarnation is complete, all we need to do next is to improve his cultivation level step by step, so that he can really put it to use."
Zhou Yang said this with a smile on his face, and suddenly pointed to the large amount of elixirs replanted on the mountain and asked: "Why do you suddenly want to learn the art of spiritual planting? Haven't you always wanted to be distracted from doing these things?
"
Hearing him ask about this, Jiang Fengxian couldn't help but smile slightly and said: "I didn't want to be distracted in learning these immortal cultivation skills. Firstly, it was because scattered cultivators had no fixed place. It was easy to make wedding clothes for others when doing such things. Secondly,
I don’t want to delay my practice because of this.”
"But now that I have given birth to a baby, and you don't have to worry about this [Donglai Fairy Island] being occupied by others, you can take some time to learn a few skills, which can just kill some boring time."
Of course it was an excuse to kill boring time. Zhou Yang knew that Jiang Fengxian would choose to learn spiritual planting skills or to help him manage this [Donglai Immortal Island].
Because if there are no accidents, after they return to the Immortal Cultivation World of Donghua Continent to seek revenge from the Goddess Palace, and then return to the Immortal Cultivation World of Liuyun Continent to resolve some matters, Jiang Fengxian will take her daughter Jiang Yufeng back to this [Donglai Immortal Island] to live in seclusion.
.
And he definitely couldn't come here with him so quickly.
Knowing this in his heart, Zhou Yang didn't say anything about his thoughts. He just stretched out his arms to hug the beautiful lady into his arms and walked into the cave.
In the cave, after some spiritual and physical cultivation with his beloved, Zhou Yang stood up slightly, hugged the beauty with his back against the bedrail and asked softly: "Fengxian, what have you gained from exploring the whole island in the past few years?"
?”
[Donglai Immortal Island] spans thousands of miles. In addition to rich elixir resources and spiritual wood resources, it also has rich mineral resources. However, Zhou Yang had not had time to explore the island's resources due to various reasons.
Before practicing the secret art of external incarnation in seclusion this time, he specially entrusted this matter to Jiang Fengxian and asked her to help investigate.
Now that she heard him ask about this matter, Jiang Fengxian gently stretched out her hand to tuck her somewhat scattered hair, and replied softly: "Of course there is a harvest, but this harvest may make you a little disappointed, Zhou Lang."
"How do you say this?"
Zhou Yang frowned slightly and looked at the beauty in his arms in confusion.
"Let's talk about the most important giant spiritual stone mine on the Immortal Island first. Although there are still a large number of low-grade spiritual stones and medium-grade spiritual stones stored in it, the number of high-grade spiritual stones is already very small. It is estimated to be less than a thousand. As for the top-grade spiritual stones,
Not even a single stone!"
"As for the other spiritual mines on the island, there are only a few scraps of the higher-grade fifth-level spiritual gold mines left, while the ordinary second- and third-level spiritual mines are intact, but they don't have much mining value!
"
"Also, although the island is rich in spiritual wood resources, fifth-level spiritual trees are almost difficult to see. According to the two demon kings, basically all fifth-level spiritual trees were eaten by Mu Qingyun!"
"As for the elixirs, most of the high-level elixirs on the island were picked by the two demon kings and fell into our hands. Although there are still a large number of immature high-level elixirs and middle- and low-level elixirs growing everywhere, in a short time
It won’t be of much use inside.”
Zhou Yang's face became uglier with every word Jiang Fengxian spoke, and by the end, his face was as black as coals.
"This damn old monster!"
He cursed with an ugly expression, and couldn't help but think of the several "transformation elixirs" wasted by Mu Qingyun.
Except for the spiritual objects he obtained in the Dao Palace, the real good things on this fairy island have undoubtedly fallen into Mu Qingyun's hands long ago.
And as Mu Qingyun died under the calamity, those treasures were turned into powder in the calamity thunder.
What is left for Zhou Yang now is not many good things except for a large number of middle and low-level spiritual objects that he can no longer use.
"Forget it, that's it. After I take care of the remaining trivial matters in my hands, we will leave the Immortal Island and return to the Immortal Cultivation World of Donghua Continent!"
Shaking his head, Zhou Yang suppressed the anger in his heart, stopped thinking about these unchangeable things, and whispered his plan in a low voice.
Next, after Zhou Yang and the beautiful woman had been cocooning for a few days, they entered the refining room, took out the tribulation thunder that they had collected earlier, and refined the thunder beads using a secret method.
After many failures, Zhou Yang exhausted all three thunder balls and finally refined four [Sky Thunder Beads].
Because they are made using the power of the tribulation thunder dropped by the True Spirit Sky Tribulation, each of these four [Sky Thunder Beads] is as powerful as a full-strength strike from a monk in the middle stage of Yuanying. Use all four together.
If so, the power will probably not be worse than the power of the first thunderbolt of the True Spirit Heavenly Tribulation.
With these four thunder beads as trump cards, and the complete seventh-level immortal weapon [Suzaku Fan] in hand, Zhou Yang dared to fight against a late-stage Nascent Soul monk.
After refining the thunder beads, Zhou Yang dealt with another matter that had been delayed for hundreds of years.
I saw him walking out of the cave and onto the fairy mountain outside. Then with a wave of his hand, two dragons, one green and one silver, flew out from the [Exquisite Jade Bracelet] on his wrist.
When he first obtained the magical artifact [Linglong Jade Bracelet] from Yulong Jinhuang, he found that the other party's two dragons were sleeping and recuperating inside.
Over the years, he never woke up these two dragons because he didn't know how to deal with them.
Now that he has reached the Nascent Soul stage, and the two dragons have recovered from their injuries after sleeping for hundreds of years, he is ready to take advantage of the situation and deal with this matter.
"Thieves shall die!"
As soon as the two dragons came out, they roared and released lightning, and the wind blades attacked Zhou Yang. It seemed that although they were sleeping, they also knew that the owner of the [Linglong Jade Bracelet] had changed, and they understood that it was Zhou Yang who killed their original one.
Owner.
"Noisy!"
Zhou Yang's face darkened, he raised his hand and punched out, directly scattering all the lightning and wind blades, and then punched out two more times, beating both dragons on the spot until they vomited blood and collapsed on the ground.
"If you want to die, I will help you!"
His eyes were like lightning as he glanced at the two dragons. The aura and pressure of the Nascent Soul Stage monks pressed hard on the two dragons, making it difficult for them to even raise their heads.
"Nascent Soul stage! How is this possible!"
The silver dragon exclaimed and looked at Zhou Yang in disbelief, almost suspecting that he had seen it wrong.
The green dragon also had its eyes widened, finding it difficult to accept this fact.
Zhou Yang was very satisfied with the reaction of the two dragons. If he didn't have the cultivation level of Nascent Soul stage, his method of dealing with these two dragons would basically be to kill them, skin them and cramp them.
But now, he looked at the two dragons with sharp eyes and shouted coldly: "Tell me, do you want to die or live?"
"You want our sisters to surrender to you? It's impossible! It's impossible for me, the Dragon Clan of the East China Sea, to surrender to a human being, absolutely impossible!"
The silver dragon's eyes suddenly widened, and he roared with anger.
They are all adult dragons, how could they be willing to surrender to a human monk, an enemy who killed their original master!
"Hey, the Dragon Clan of the East China Sea, even a mere dragon, dares to brag about it to put money on their faces. Why didn't you say this when you were being treated like dogs by the Yulong Clan?"
Zhou Yang sneered and mercilessly slapped him in the face to mock the silver dragon.
"you……"
The silver dragon was so angry that all its dragon scales stood upright, but it stimulated the internal injuries caused by Zhou Yang's previous punch on her body, causing her dragon body to twist in pain, and she did not dare to say the rest of the words.
The green dragon was still calmer, but he looked at Zhou Yang coldly without any hint of timidity in his eyes and said: "If you think that you can make us surrender with your advanced cultivation and strong strength, you'd better give up as soon as possible.
That’s the idea!”
"So, you chose death?"
Zhou Yang's face darkened, but he didn't expect the two female dragons to react so strongly.
"In short, if we are allowed to be slaves to others for the rest of our lives, we would rather die!"
Qingjiao raised his head high and expressed his choice with an unyielding look in his eyes.
"Sister is right, we would rather die than be slaves of humans!"
The silver dragon quickly shouted in response to the green dragon's words, looking at Zhou Yang with eyes full of hatred.
Seeing this, Zhou Yang was naturally very angry.
If he really wanted to kill these two dragons, he would have killed them directly. How could he wait until today?
It is estimated that his thoughts have been guessed by the green dragon, which is why the other party confidently contradicted him.
After understanding this, he could only show his cards and said: "Who said that I want you to be slaves for life? You just need to obediently offer your demon soul to Zhou to refine the [Best Soul Card], and wait until Zhou ascends or becomes immortal in the future.
, we will release you back to freedom!"
Hearing his words, before the green dragon could speak, the silver dragon had already scolded him with disdain: "Hmph, do you think we will fall into your trap? If we really sacrificed our demon souls and were refined by you [
[Bird Soul Card], don’t we really have to work for you all our lives? Maybe after you die, you will be driven by your descendants. Do you really think we are fools?"
Qing Jiao also strongly agreed with Yin Jiao's words this time. She looked at Zhou Yang coldly and said: "What Ling Mei said is absolutely true. You should not mention the matter of refining the [Born Soul Card] again, even if you are pregnant with a real dragon."
The direct members of the Yulong Family, let alone a pure-blooded human like you, didn’t ask us to offer the demon soul to refine the [Born Soul Card] for them to drive!”
"The [Birth Soul Card] must be refined. If Zhou doesn't have your [Birth Soul Card] in hand, how can he ensure that you will sincerely surrender?"
Zhou Yang looked at the two dragons and said in a tone that was unquestionable: "This is a matter of principle. If you don't even agree to this, then Zhou will have no choice but to help you and send you to reunite with the imperial dragon Jinhuang!
"
"Just die, do you think we are afraid of death? We would rather die than be your slaves!"
Yin Jiao responded to Zhou Yang's words very forcefully, and was really not afraid of death at all.
However, Zhou Yang ignored the silver dragon, who had a somewhat unclear mind, and just looked at the green dragon with a deep look.
He already knew that this green dragon was the key to conquering the two dragons.
Sure enough, Qing Jiao was not as reckless as Yin Jiao. Instead, he looked at him calmly and said, "Your Excellency, you are worried that we will not sincerely surrender, but you don't know how to ensure that we will not go back on our word? Just like what Ling Mei said just now, in any case,
Once you pass our [Birth Soul Card] to your descendants after your death, won’t it be too late for us to regret it?”
"There is one more thing that you seem to have forgotten. With your longevity in the Nascent Soul stage, if we surrender to you, we probably won't have many years to live until your true life span is exhausted and you die. At that time, even if you keep your promise,
If we return the [Birth Soul Card], our lives will be over!"
This is negotiating terms!
Zhou Yang felt happy in his heart, but said without any joy on his face: "What you said makes sense, so let's change the conditions a little. You have served Zhou for a thousand years. After a thousand years, if you don't want to follow Zhou anymore,
, Zhou will return your [Born Soul Card] to you, that’s all!”
Unexpectedly, Qingjiao heard what he said and shouted: "A thousand years is still too long, five hundred years, five hundred years at most, and you can't prove it, you must swear to keep your promise!"
She was ready to go even further.
Of course Zhou Yang would not condone this kind of thing. Five hundred years is not a long time at all for him now.
He immediately stared at the green dragon coldly, flicked his sleeves and said: "No, a thousand years is my bottom line. There is no need to bargain on this point. As for the oath, I can agree to it!"
The disappointment in Qingjiao's eyes flashed away, and he probably understood that Zhou Yang really couldn't give in anymore. He just hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, then it's settled!"
"Sister Qingluo, you..."
Yin Jiao looked at Qing Jiao in shock. He didn't expect that his sister of the same race, whom he trusted so much, would succumb to the enemy's Yin power.
Qing Jiao seemed to know what Yin Jiao wanted to say, and interrupted her before she finished speaking: "Sister Yin Ling, we are all immortal species with a life span of thousands of years. There is no need to waste our lives just for a moment's pleasure.
Take your own life.”
"Yulong Jinhuang was kind to our sisters, but our sisters never disobeyed any of his orders when he was alive, and we didn't do anything to feel sorry for him. Naturally, there is no need to be buried with him!"
"Anyway, that's all my sister said. If you really want to die for Yulong Jinhuang, my sister will respect your decision!"
Yin Jiao immediately stood on the spot.
Only then did she realize that from the very beginning, Qingjiao, whom she trusted so much, had never thought about repaying the Lord's kindness with death. All her words before were just pretentious in order to sell herself at a good price.
As simple as she is, she is so stupid that she really thinks that Qingjiao and herself are sisters!
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it turns out there really is such a stupid dragon in this world!"
"Do you think it's great that you would rather die than surrender? That you have integrity?"
"As everyone knows, even if you die, no one will remember you, and no one will feel sorry for you or shed a tear for you!"
"Oh, maybe you will think that Yulong Jinhuang can see your loyalty, but it is a pity that he has been beaten to death by me long ago, and there is no hope for the illusory reincarnation!"
Zhou Yang looked at Yin Jiao, who looked helpless because his "revolutionary friendship had been betrayed". His face was full of sarcasm and he laughed endlessly. The laughter was full of disdain, and his eyes seemed to be looking at a fool.
Same.
When Yin Jiao heard what he said, she was so angry that she glared at him and opened her mouth to curse, but she didn't know where to start.
Although Zhou Yang's words are unpleasant, they are all true.
Now she recalled Zhou Yang's words and looked at the "betrayed" Qing Jiao next to her. She couldn't refute even if she wanted to.
When Qingjiao saw this scene, his mouth moved slightly, and he sent a message to comfort her: "Good sister, only by living can you have everything, and only by living can you hope to realize your ideals and wishes. If you die, won't the heroic words you said before become useless?
Is it all empty talk?"
"I……"
Yin Jiao turned his eyes and looked at Qing Jiao, who was looking at him with encouraging eyes. Tears burst out of his eyes instantly, and he shed tears of grievance.
The next thing will be easier to handle. With Qing Jiao doing the ideological work, Yin Jiao still has no idea of convincing Zhou Yang in his heart, but he still offers a part of the demon soul along with Qing Jiao, allowing Zhou Yang to refine the [Born Soul Card]
].
Zhou Yang found the refining method of this [Born Soul Card] from the weapon refining classics collected by [Master Donglai]. Nowadays, there are not many monks in the world of immortality who know how to refine this kind of treasure.
After the [Born Soul Card] was refined, the two dragons Qingluo and Yinling officially became Zhou Yang's spiritual pets.
The task Zhou Yang gave to the two dragons was to guard the fairy island after he left and help him take care of the spiritual herbs and elixirs on the fairy island.
In addition, he also dedicated an acre of spiritual field on Donglai Fairy Mountain to plant [Blood Dragon Rice]. The two dragons need to water the spiritual field with their own dragon spiritual blood from time to time to ensure the normal growth of [Blood Dragon Rice].
The two dragons were undoubtedly very satisfied with Zhou Yang's arrangement.
Needless to say, the cultivation environment on [Donglai Immortal Island] is much better than the Dragon Pond specially prepared for them by the Yulong Family.
The most important thing is that they don't have to follow Zhou Yang, which means they don't have to often see Zhou Yang, a human being they find annoying, and they don't have to risk their lives to participate in various wars.
After arranging the tasks of the two dragons and making sure that they could successfully complete the work of taking care of various rare elixirs on the mountain, Zhou Yang sent a messenger Feijian to Demon King Leiyu and Lu Caixia, preparing to take these two demons with them.
Wang left the fairy island and went to the immortal world of Donghua Continent to seek revenge from the Goddess Palace.
With the help of the Thunder Feather Demon King who is unparalleled in the Nascent Soul stage, and the [Five-Colored Deer] who can break all kinds of magic, even if the master of the Goddess Palace, Lou Feifeng, reaches the sixth level of the Nascent Soul, he will definitely be dead!
