Ordinary mortals will try to avoid going out at this time to avoid getting sunburned and fainted by the harsh and blazing sunshine.
However, on the top of the highest mountain of Huohua Mountain, there was a person bathing in the golden sunlight that seemed to be a substance, with his hands forming a seal and practicing hard.
If you look carefully, you will find that the place where the golden sunlight, which is like a substance, is flowing, is not the person himself, but a palm-sized golden stone on the ground in front of him.
This golden stone is an extremely rare treasure in the world of immortality [Sunshine Divine Stone], a treasure that can absorb a large amount of the energy of the sun under sunlight.
Apart from Zhou Yang, there is probably no one else who can use the [Sunlight Divine Stone] to practice on Huohua Mountain.
At this time, another ten years have passed since Zhou Yang's cultivation level broke through the middle stage of Nascent Soul and came out of seclusion.
In the past ten years, he has not been in seclusion and practiced hard. Instead, while stabilizing his cultivation realm, he has developed the magical power of [Golden Photovoltaic Curse] with the help of [Sunlight Divine Stone].
The [Sunlight Divine Stone] is indeed well-deserved. Although the [Sunlight Divine Stone] in his hand is only the size of a palm, with its assistance, Zhou Yang's [Golden Photovoltaic Curse] magical power is still progressing rapidly, and he can feel its power almost every day.
growth.
According to his estimation, in five or six years at most, he will be able to practice this magical power to the state of Dacheng. Together with the state of perfection after Dacheng, it will be a matter of course.
More than two hours later, as the sunlight gradually weakened, Zhou Yang also slowly put away his magical power. With a wave of his hand, he put the [Sunlight Divine Stone] under his feet into the storage ring and stood up.
He stood up and stood on the top of the mountain, looking up at the red sun slanting to the west. He didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly sighed deeply: "Hey! Ying'er is a little hasty this time in seclusion to have a baby. Now she just hopes that she can refining her heart."
The method is really useful, I hope [Ice Tears] can work properly!"
It turned out that more than a year ago, after Xiao Ying had mastered the heart-refining method provided by the witch Huan Qianqian, she left a letter to Zhou Yang and resolutely entered the secret room to attack the Nascent Soul realm.
Zhou Yang also didn't expect that Xiao Ying, who had always been weak and had no independent opinions, would have such determination and courage this time.
So much so that when he found the note, he didn't know whether to be happy or angry.
But in the end, he did not forcefully interrupt Xiao Ying's retreat and call her out of the secret room.
In order to persuade Xiao Ying to make up her mind to attack the Nascent Soul stage, he had spent a lot of words and energy over the years. It made no sense that now that she had made up her mind, he would come out and interrupt her.
If Xiao Ying's retreat is interrupted this time, given her weak character, Zhou Yang is afraid that it will be difficult for her to have such determination to do this again in the future.
After all, this path of spiritual practice has to be walked by the monk himself. The most others can do is to help him level the road and straighten it, but they cannot help him reach the sky in one step.
At the same time, because Xiao Ying was in seclusion to conceive a baby, Zhou Yang was naturally unable to leave Huohua Mountain even half a step before the results came out, let alone go into seclusion.
Even after Zhou Guangcheng and Lu Xuewei got the news, they each came to Huohua Mountain to wait.
The two of them, one is Xiao Ying's biological son and the other is the female disciple who was raised by Xiao Ying, are much closer emotionally than others.
"Master, I have something to tell you. The places where Junior Brother Wang and Junior Sister Ye were buried have been found. Now their remains have been collected and enshrined by their descendants. There is a suicide note left for you, Master.
Yes, please take a look at it."
On Huohua Mountain, after Lu Xuewei came here to protect his master's wife Xiao Ying, she also reported to Zhou Yang the situation of his other disciple Wang Yanzhang.
Speaking of which, Master Zhou Yang is indeed somewhat incompetent. Although he has accepted two disciples, apart from giving some practice techniques and resources, he rarely personally teaches these disciples to practice, and almost always leaves them in a free-range state.
.
Lu Xuewei is a little better. She has excellent spiritual qualifications and has the blood of the Zhou family. In addition, she has been following Zhou Yang and Xiao Ying since she was a child. In terms of relationships, she is not as good as Wang Yanzhang and his wife who were just beginners. Although Zhou Yang has taught her little.
, but various cultivation resources have never been lacking for her, which made her successfully form elixirs early.
In comparison, Wang Yanzhang is far behind.
Although the benefits obtained from Master Zhou Yang are no less than those of any direct disciple of a golden elixir monk, with Wang Yanzhang's not very good spiritual root qualifications, it really depends on luck to form elixirs.
But luck is obviously not reliable every time.
Before Zhou Yang went to Beitingzhou to cultivate the immortal world, he had already given a [Jade Liquid Golden Pill] to Wang Yanzhang for use.
But unfortunately, even with the help of [Jade Liquid Golden Pill] and several auxiliary pill-forming spiritual objects, Wang Yanzhang still failed to form the pill this time.
By the time Zhou Yang returned from the Beitingzhou Immortal Realm, Wang Yanzhang and his wife had exhausted their lifespan and had been dead for many years.
In fact, if he hadn't given Wang Yanzhang and Ye Lingshan two magic pills that could extend the life of monks in his early years, they would have had to take it before he went to Beitingzhou to cultivate immortality.
Sitting down.
I just don’t know what happened in the last few years, so that Wang Yanzhang and his wife did not choose to die in the cave, but left their property to future generations, and then both of them suddenly disappeared.
Several years later, the descendants of the Wang family learned of the death of the two people after they saw their soul lamps extinguished in the ancestral temple.
Therefore, after hearing Lu Xuewei's words, Zhou Yang's expression changed, and he looked at her and said, "Since there is a suicide note left, let me show it to my teacher."
When Lu Xuewei heard this, she immediately took out a jade slip from the storage ring and handed it over.
Reaching out to take the jade slip, Zhou Yang threw his spiritual consciousness into it. After a while, he withdrew his consciousness, and a ball of flame came out of his palm and burned the jade slip into ashes.
"They are also a pair of idiots!"
With a sigh, Zhou Yang met Lu Xuewei's curious gaze, shook his head slightly, and had no intention of revealing the contents of the jade slip to her.
In fact, the jade slip didn't say much, except for the words of gratitude expressed by Wang Yanzhang and Ye Lingshan.
This secret technique has only one function, and that is to help monks form elixirs.
But after Zhou Yang read the contents of this secret technique, he destroyed it without even thinking about remembering it.
Because if you want to use this secret technique, one of the two monks must take the initiative to use themselves as a sacrificial cauldron. In the process of dual cultivation, all the magic power of the body, including the soul, essence and blood, is transferred to the other party through the secret technique.
, and then the other party uses this huge energy and life essence to forcibly condense the golden elixir.
However, even if the secret technique is successful, the golden elixir condensed through this secret technique will no longer have any possibility of progress. Apart from adding hundreds of years of life, it will be useless at all.
Sacrificing his favorite Taoist companion only in exchange for hundreds of years of life, and making it difficult for him to improve his cultivation for the rest of his life. In Zhou Yang's view, the person who created this secret technique is simply mentally ill.
The same is true for people with skills.
In the case of Wang Yanzhang and Ye Lingshan, Ye Lingshan intended to sacrifice herself to fulfill Wang Yanzhang, but in the end Wang Yanzhang took the initiative to break his heart and dispersed his magic power, interrupting the secret technique. After that, the two only had time to leave a few suicide notes, and they died together in an unknown building.
In the secret mansion in the barren mountains that everyone knows.
That's why Zhou Yang sighed like before.
"After all, we are from the same sect. If the descendants of your junior brother Wang's family encounter any difficulties in the future, if they come to you, I will help you if I can!"
"Yes, my disciple knows."
In the following days, Zhou Yang would practice the magical power of [Golden Photovoltaic Curse] with the help of [Sunlight Divine Stone] during the day, and then meditate at night for daily practice. Occasionally, he would take time to give guidance on the practice of his son Zhou Guangcheng and his apprentice Lu Xuewei.
The [Tian Shuang Xuan Ming Finger] magical power cultivation method that he obtained in the Beitingzhou Immortal Realm also took this opportunity to pass on to Lu Xuewei, so that she could consider this method in advance and prepare for her future practice after giving birth.
Make preparations.
After seven years of this, he practiced the magical power of [Golden Photovoltaic Curse] to the level of great achievement.
The [Golden Light Voltage Curse] at the Dacheng Realm is indeed much more powerful than before. The ball of "golden light that subdues demons" can even be driven by Zhou Yang to turn it into a robe and put it on the body, playing the role of the [Evil-Repelling Treasure Clothes].
part of the effect.
He secretly tried this magical power on the witch Huan Qianqian who was imprisoned by him, and found that even a demon cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage was extremely restrained when faced with the attack of this magical power, and any magical power would be destroyed under its effect.
The power is greatly reduced and the original power is no longer restored.
With this discovery, Zhou Yang became more determined to cultivate this magical power to a perfect state.
Eight years later, Zhou Yang successfully practiced the [Golden Photovoltaic Curse] magical power to a perfect state, and successfully condensed the "Golden Wheel of Subduing Demons" that represents the highest achievement of this magical power.
This "Golden Wheel of Conquering Demons" is completely transformed from the original "Golden Light of Conquering Demons" and has some effects of a magic weapon, but it is essentially a magical power.
As for the effect, after Zhou Yang tried it with the witch Huan Qianqian, her injuries that were almost healed worsened and regressed for decades.
The first seven and the last eight years add up to fifteen years, and sixteen years have passed since Xiao Ying went into seclusion.
Sixteen years is not a long time for a monk entering the Nascent Soul stage. It also took Jiang Fengxian such a long time to successfully conceive a baby.
But for Xiao Ying, sixteen years is a long time.
You must know that it took Zhou Yang less than ten years to conceive a baby, and this time Xiao Ying attacked Nascent Soul, but like him, she had prepared [Holy Infant Fruit], [Ice Tears] and other things to assist in conceiving a baby.
Considering that the concentration of spiritual energy in Huohuashan Cave is not as high as that of [Donglai Immortal Island], it stands to reason that it will not take that long.
Although Zhou Yang knew that nothing happened to Xiao Ying through the connection between Taoists and Taoists, he still became a little anxious.
He couldn't help but be in a hurry. It would be better if the stage of conceiving a baby didn't reach the stage of "transforming into a baby". Once that step was reached, there would be no turning back. It could be said that it was do or die.
But he was so anxious that at this time, apart from praying for the Taoist companion, he had no other way to help him.
"Dad, Mom has been in seclusion for sixteen years, and there is still no news. You see..."
Zhou Guangcheng is now also from a famous family. Although his cultivation is still in the early stage of Jindan, he is not ignorant about the matter of conceiving a baby. After seeing that his mother has been in seclusion for sixteen years and there is no news, he is also extremely anxious and has no intention at all.
While practicing, I couldn't help but talk to my father, Zhou Yang, about this matter.
"Don't worry, your mother is in good condition now. Sixteen years is not a long time to attack the Nascent Soul. Your master still spent 21 years in seclusion to form a Soul!"
Zhou Yang looked at his son calmly and said, as if he was not worried at all that something would go wrong.
When Zhou Guangcheng heard what he said, he couldn't help but nodded and said to himself: "Yes, Master, since it took him twenty-one years to successfully conceive a baby, my mother has only been in seclusion for sixteen years, which is really not a long time."
."
Then both father and son fell silent.
In fact, both of them knew what the actual situation was. If they hadn't been worried, they wouldn't have had this conversation.
But neither of them wanted to think about this result from the bottom of their hearts.
Amidst this anxiety and worry, Zhou Yang and his son spent another two years suffering from inner suffering.
Eighteen years later, even Zhou Yang himself can no longer remain indifferent.
Lu Xuewei could often see him sitting alone on the top of the mountain, quietly looking at the retreat where his master wife Xiao Ying was in a daze.
This kind of daze appeared in a Yuanying stage monk, which shows how Zhou Yang was feeling at this time.
An invisible haze enveloped Huohua Mountain, and many Xuanyang Immortal Sect monks who originally practiced here seemed to have a premonition of something and left here with various excuses.
Only those monks who had garrison duties had no choice but to leave. Every day they nervously completed tasks such as changing of guard and handover. They tried to lower their voices or simply communicated through spiritual consciousness. No one dared to make a loud noise.
When the time comes to the twentieth year, Huohua Mountain seems to have become a volcano that has been brewing for thousands of years and is ready to erupt. When any monk who opens the Zifu enters this place, he can clearly feel the terrifying pressure from the top of the mountain.
.
Zhou Yang could no longer control his emotions, or in other words, he had no intention of controlling these emotions, nor did he think about how much pressure his state would put on other monks.
Others had already sat outside the gate of Xiao Ying's retreat cave, and were already ready to force the door open.
In fact, he had already prepared a next step, that is, if Xiao Ying really couldn't pass this level, he would rescue her soul before she completely fell, and then let her convert to the ghost path.
He did not explain this matter to Xiao Ying in advance, because once he did, it might leave a flaw in her mind.
But when things really came to pass, it was difficult for him to make up his mind to do so.
After all, although there is no good news coming now, there is no worst-case scenario either.
And once he takes action, Xiao Ying will really have no chance of succeeding in conceiving a baby this time.
