Li Hong's timely statement of awakening was also richly rewarded.
Including the number of [Jade Liquid Golden Elixir] obtained from the trip to the Immortal Cultivation World in Beitingzhou, the number of [Jade Liquid Golden Elixir] in Zhou Yang's hands now exceeds twenty.
This time, he gave Li Hong five copies of [Jade Liquid Golden Elixir] and thirty copies of [Purple Heart Chalcedony] obtained at the exchange meeting and deposited them in the Zhou family treasury for the use of the Zhou family monks.
Of the remaining [Jade Liquid Golden Elixir], he not only kept five copies as rewards for his descendants in the future, but also deposited them in a private treasure house in Huohua Mountain Cave.
In the future, even if he is no longer in the family and the amount of [Jade Liquid Golden Elixir] stored in the Zhou family's treasury is exhausted, Li Hong can ask his Taoist companion Xiao Ying or his son Zhou Guangcheng to open the treasury and take it out.
In addition, he also handed over many spiritual objects that he did not need from the Beitingzhou Immortal Realm to Li Hong and took them back to the Zhou family to enrich the family treasure house.
When giving these things, he also suggested to Li Hong: "Now that our Zhou family has sufficient resources, we might as well hold more intra-clan competitions to increase resources for those clansmen who are qualified and have the understanding to go further.
Invest and strive to cultivate more monks of the Purple Mansion Stage and even the Golden Core Stage."
When Li Hong heard what he said, he quickly and respectfully responded: "Junior, I understand. When I return, I will definitely inform all the monks of our ancestors' decrees, so that everyone knows that you are still thinking about us, the younger generations of the family."
"Ancestor, I can rest assured that you are doing the right thing. Let's do this. You can return to your family now. Ancestor, I will arrange for someone to protect you secretly."
Zhou Yang nodded slightly, didn't ask any more about family affairs, and just let Li Hong and others leave.
And the person he arranged to secretly protect Li Hong and others was naturally the demon servant Bi'er.
Originally, the witch Huan Qianqian was more suitable for protecting people secretly, and it was easier to hide herself from being discovered.
But Zhou Yang really couldn't trust this witch and didn't dare to let her out of his sight, so he had no choice but to leave this task to Bi'er.
Not long after everyone in the Zhou family left, Master Qingyang received the news and personally escorted his apprentice Zhou Guangcheng back home to visit relatives.
Decades have passed, Zhou Guangcheng has successfully formed the elixir, and is now a true golden elixir stage monk.
When Yulong Xingyu was guarding Zhou Yang, he also encountered several assassinations. Although nothing happened in the end, it really scared him. Invisibly, it made him grow a lot, and he was no longer the same as before.
Pride is irritating.
When he saw his parents who had been separated for decades, he also showed his true feelings, and his eyes turned red in a rare sight.
"After Senior Brother Wang returned home, he talked a lot with me. He said that he regretted what happened back then. I hope you, fellow Daoist Zhou, would not remember this matter in the sect because of him."
"This half bottle of [Qiyang Juyuan Pill] was brought to you by Senior Brother Wang before I and Cheng'er came here. He said it was a little compensation from him for what happened that year. I hope you can accept it, Fellow Daoist Zhou!"
In Huohua Mountain Cave Mansion, after sending his disciple Zhou Guangcheng away and letting him and his mother Xiao Ying go to another room to talk, Master Qingyang looked at Zhou Yang and talked about another reason for his visit.
When he said this, he was filled with emotion in his heart.
Thinking back to the beginning, he tried many times to persuade him, but he still couldn't change the minds of Wang Lingxiao and several fellow disciples, and he couldn't make those people really take Zhou Yang's potential seriously.
But now, only two or three hundred years have passed, what Zhou Yang has done has already frightened Wang Lingxiao, a late-stage Nascent Soul monk in charge of a seventh-level immortal weapon, and he couldn't help but give in.
If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place?
These words were words he endured and refrained from saying when he received Wang Lingxiao's commission before coming here.
If they had listened to his advice and not been so fussy about Zhou Yang and made everything clear and practical, I am afraid that all of them would be happy now that Xuanyang Immortal Sect has such a guest queen.
Let's celebrate as an elder.
"Senior Qingyang, you'd better keep this spiritual pill and return it to Senior Wang. You won't be rewarded for your merits. Zhou is not willing to owe a favor in vain!"
After Zhou Yang was silent for a while, he shook his head and declined the elixir offered by Master Qingyang.
It is true that he needs these elixirs to improve his cultivation, but there is no reason to go to any lengths to obtain these things.
The impression Wang Lingxiao left on him at first made him quite unhappy. If the situation hadn't been critical at that time, his temperament would never tolerate the other party's behavior, which was almost taking advantage of others' misfortune.
Now that hundreds of years have passed since the incident, the other party is trying to make up for this rift, and they still ask Qingyang Master to do it for them in such a secretive manner. The sincerity is really doubtful.
"Hey! I also know Daoyou Zhou's character. Since you are determined to do this, I will not force you. I just hope that you will not have any opinions about the sect and me because of this matter. There are some things that I and the sect also have difficulties in.
!”
Master Qingyang sighed and put away the elixir with a helpless expression on his face.
When Zhou Yang heard what he said, he smiled calmly and said: "Senior Qingyang is worried too much. I have always admired my senior very much. I will never forget the kindness of my senior who helped me when I was in my weak years."
How can you blame senior for other people's things?"
"Being kind to fellow Taoist Zhou was actually the wisest decision and the most correct thing I have ever done in my life. To be honest, I also want to see where Taoist friend Zhou will go in the future and whether he can take it with his talent.
That step!”
Master Qingyang looked at Zhou Yang with emotion on his face and said, his words full of expectations and expectations.
Now Zhou Yang's cultivation level has reached the same level as his. Judging from this speed, he still has great hope of seeing Zhou Yang take that step forward in his lifetime.
"The road is vast, and no one knows where we will go in the future. The younger generation can only see clearly how to walk on the road under our feet, and we only hope that the road under our feet is the right one and we will not go astray!"
Zhou Yang thought of Du Chongyang, whom he had seen in the Immortal Cultivation World of Beitingzhou, and for a moment seemed to feel something, and expressed his inner feelings with emotion on his face.
The path of spiritual practice becomes more and more difficult the further you go.
Master Qingyang was amazed at the speed of Zhou Yang's improvement in cultivation, but he didn't know that Zhou Yang's own feelings about this were completely opposite.
A closer look shows that it has been two to three hundred years since he successfully formed a baby, and it took almost more than a hundred years to advance to the next level of cultivation. This speed may be a good thing that other Nascent Soul stage monks can only dream of.
But compared with his speed when he was in the golden elixir stage, it was really far behind and incomparable.
Moreover, the dangerous things he went through in order to improve these two levels of cultivation were better than each other.
Many of the Nascent Soul Stage monks who traveled with him failed to survive, and their thousand years of cultivation turned into ashes!
Although Zhou Yang has now gathered a large number of spiritual objects that are enough for him to cultivate to the middle stage of Yuanying, these things can only help him improve his cultivation level by two or three levels at most, and cannot even help him to cultivate to the late stage of Yuanying.
And the middle stage of Yuanying breaks through the late stage of Yuanying, from the seventh level of Yuanying to the ninth level of Yuanying, each level is difficult and difficult.
Zhou Yang did not dare to guarantee how long he would stay in front of these checkpoints, or whether he would stay here like Wang Lingxiao and many other monks for the rest of his life.
Master Qingyang didn't stay in Huohuashan Cave for long before returning to Xuanyang Immortal Sect alone, while Zhou Guangcheng stayed here to accompany his parents and refine some of the treasures given by Zhou Yang.
And Zhou Yang was not in a hurry to go into seclusion and practice hard, but deliberately took out time to accompany his wife and children, and the family shared the happiness of family.
Not long after, some old friends who heard about Zhou Yang's return also came to visit Huohuashan Cave one after another.
Most of these people didn't know about Zhou Yang's organization of masters to kill Yulong Xingyu, a ninth-level Nascent Soul monk. However, they had all heard about Zhou Yang's cultivation of immortality in Beiting Continent to eliminate demons and protect the Tao. When they came to visit him, they were also very interested.
Talk about this.
Zhou Yang also welcomed the visits of these people. Immortal cultivators pay attention to "Dharma couple, wealth and land". In addition to Taoist couples, the "couples" also include other fellow monks with whom they can get along well.
Just like the siege of Yulong Xingyu this time, if he hadn't had a wide network of contacts and established friendships with many powerful people by chance, how could he have asked so many people to help him.
It is true that if you gain the right way, you will get many help, but if you lose the right way, you will get little help.
"Is Fellow Daoist Liu still busy working on improving the spiritual veins of the mountain gate recently?"
On Huohua Mountain, when Zhou Yang was receiving the visiting Supreme Elder Liu Yunxiang of the Suyun Sect, he seemed to have inadvertently asked the other party this question after chatting with him about his experience of traveling to the world of immortality in Beitingzhou.
As soon as she heard him mention this matter, Liu Yunxiang seemed to have a belly of bitterness that needed to be poured out. She sighed with a look of exhaustion in her eyes and said: "Yeah, I'm still running around about this matter, and I don't know what else to do."
How many years will it take for me to accomplish this great thing as I wish?"
She successfully conceived a baby earlier than Zhou Yang, but now two or three hundred years later, Zhou Yang's cultivation level has reached the third level of Yuanying, but she is still far from being promoted to the second level of Yuanying.
This is of course not because her qualifications are so many times worse than Zhou Yang's, but because she has not practiced well at all in the past two or three hundred years, and all her time and energy have been spent on upgrading the sect's spiritual veins.
Now that this matter has been mentioned, and Zhou Yang has been a friend for many years, and they have fought side by side to save everyone in his family, Liu Yunxiang doesn't mind exposing her inner weakness in front of him, and wants to take this opportunity to vent her heart.
The frustration of not being able to talk to my classmates.
He couldn't help but take the opportunity to confide to Zhou Yang: "When I started, my master and elders helped me raise resources for cultivation and other matters. Although I went through a lot of experiences during this period, I didn't have much time to worry about these things.
"
"Now that I have personally worked on this matter for hundreds of years, I have now fully realized how difficult it was for the founders to establish the sect back then!"
"As the saying goes, the ancestors planted trees, and the descendants enjoy the shade. The ancestors of the past generations planted saplings for the Suyun Sect and cared for them to grow. Only then can I and many of the disciples of the Suyun Sect thrive under the shelter of the trees."
"Now that the Suyun Sect is getting bigger and bigger, the big trees planted by the founders can no longer meet the needs of all the disciples of the Suyun Sect. As the person with the highest cultivation level in the Suyun Sect, I have the responsibility and obligation to serve the sect.
Plant a taller and bigger tree so that the next generation of disciples can enjoy the shade of the tree and avoid following the same old path I’m on now!”
As the old saying goes, it is easy to start a business but difficult to keep it.
It is even more difficult to develop and expand the foundation left by our ancestors.
With Liu Yunxiang's success in conceiving a baby, Suyun Sect already has the foundation to become a major sect, but in order to truly become a major sect, it depends on whether their sect's mountain spiritual veins can successfully advance to the sixth level.
With Nascent Soul Stage monks at the helm and sixth-order spiritual veins as the foundation of the mountain gate, only when these two hard indicators are complete can the Suyun Sect be called a great sect.
And with sixth-level spiritual veins as the foundation of the mountain gate, Liu Yunxiang has the possibility of further cultivation.
If any of the Suyun Sect monks after her could successfully conceive a baby, they would not follow her old path again!
Zhou Yang understands Liu Yunxiang's current mood and hardship very well. The Zhou family under his leadership actually went through similar experiences.
However, his luck was much better than Liu Yunxiang's, and the difficulties he encountered at the time were not as great as Liu Yunxiang's. With his careful planning, he was able to successfully capture the Rhinoceros Horn Oasis, laying the foundation for the Jindan family for the Zhou family.
Listening to Liu Yunxiang's words at this moment, he was also deeply touched. He couldn't help comforting the other party and said: "Fellow Taoist Liu is a responsible person. Zhou believes that the future generations of monks from Suyun Sect will definitely remember Taoist Friend's achievements and kindness."
, in the future, the ranking of fellow Taoists in Suyun Sect’s Patriarch Hall will definitely far exceed that of the Patriarchs of the past generations, and will be tied with the Patriarch of the founding sect!”
When Liu Yunxiang heard what he said, she sighed with a wry smile: "What I do is just to live up to my own conscience and responsibility. I don't expect this. I just hope that this tiring day of running around will end soon."
That’s good!”
After she finished speaking, Xiao Ying, who had been accompanying her, suddenly smiled and said: "Hehehe, Sister Liu's wish will come true soon. When the time comes, your sect's spiritual veins will be successfully upgraded, but remember
Invite us to a wedding banquet!"
"Why did sister Ying'er say this..."
Liu Yunxiang looked at Xiao Ying with a look of astonishment on her face. Thoughts were running through her mind. She seemed to have thought of something. She couldn't help but turn her head to look at Zhou Yang with her delicate body trembling.
"On this trip to the Immortal Realm of Beitingzhou, Zhou was lucky enough to make some merits. When discussing merits and rewards, fellow Taoist Nie Yushuang of the Xuanming Immortal Sect happened to give Zhou a top-quality spiritual stone. The Zhou family still uses it now.
If you are not at the sixth level of spiritual veins, and Zhou has Huohua Mountain Cave, if fellow Taoist Liu is in urgent need of this thing, Zhou can also give this thing to fellow Taoist for use first."
Facing Liu Yunxiang's disbelieving and expectant gaze, Zhou Yang nodded slightly and expressed his intention with a faint smile.
While speaking, he had already raised his palm and took out the top-grade wood attribute spirit stone given by Nie Yushuang.
When Zhou Yang went to Beitingzhou to cultivate the world of immortality, another top-quality spiritual stone was mined from the giant spiritual stone mine in the wild jungle. Therefore, Zhou Yang now has as many as six top-quality spiritual stones in his hand, and they contain several attributes.
.
Most of Suyun Sect's techniques are based on wood and water elements. Since he decided to do this favor, and he happened to have the right thing in his hand, of course he wanted good people to do it to the end and give them a piece of wood that is most suitable for improving their spiritual veins.
The spiritual stone with the best attributes.
"This, this, this...this, this..."
Liu Yunxiang's beautiful eyes were wide open and her lips were wide open as she looked at the emerald green spirit stone in Zhou Yang's hand. She was so excited that she couldn't even finish her words.
What Chao Si had dreamed about for hundreds of years now appeared in front of her in a way that she had never expected. Her excitement was beyond words.
"Sister Liu, don't be too excited. Since my husband is willing to lend you this thing, you should take it quickly. Don't wait until he regrets it again. Then you will really be happy for nothing!"
Xiao Ying smiled softly, took the top-quality wood-attribute spirit stone from Zhou Yang's hand with a teasing smile, and handed it to Liu Yunxiang's jade hand.
And Liu Yunxiangyu held the top-quality spiritual stone in her hand, feeling the pure and rich wood-attribute spiritual power in it, and felt extremely solid and peaceful in her heart.
Her trembling body finally calmed down under the influence of this solidity and stability.
After she calmed down, she clenched the spirit stone in her hand. Her beautiful eyes were full of gratitude and she bowed deeply to Zhou Yang and thanked him: "Fellow Daoist Zhou, for the kindness of reincarnation, Liu Yunxiang and all the disciples of Suyun Sect, Wu Te"
It’s unforgettable, please accept my concubine and bow to me!”
