Chapter seven hundred and fortieth: Come home with a reward!
Although there are many forbidden areas in [Kunxu Realm], there are only six or seven forbidden areas where the sixth-level demon king is stationed.
It took Zhou Yang about three months to kill the sixth-level demon kings in four forbidden areas and collect all the treasures in the demon king's lair.
But when he rushed to the fifth demon king, he found that there were already other Nascent Soul stage monks who had entered to fight with him. Seeing this, he could only stop and rush to the sixth demon king.
But the sixth demon king didn't know if he had received some news in advance. When Zhou Yang arrived, his lair was empty of demons and his whereabouts were unknown.
[Kunxu Realm] It may not be big, but it's not small at all. A sixth-level demon king wants to hide and escape, but even Taoist Lan doesn't have the ability to find him.
So Zhou Yang could only temporarily give up the demon-slaying plan and explore and loot some treasure places guarded by formations and puppets.
There are dozens of treasure-hidden places in [Kunxu Realm], some of which Taoist Lianlan does not have the right to enter. For example, the "Ten Thousand Treasures Tower" that Zhou Yang visited last time here is one of them.
Last time at the "Wanbao Tower", Zhou Yang obtained the [Xuanzhen Fruit of Enlightenment], the spiritual fruit of heaven and earth, and the magical power [Xuantian Fire and Thunder Bead], all of which helped him a lot in his practice. This time he
So I came here first.
At this time, there were already many monks who came to the "Wanbao Tower" to collect treasures. After Zhou Yang and Qin Yue'er arrived here, they did not rush in to search for treasures immediately. Instead, they looked at Qin Yue'er and asked: "Yue'er, are you there?"
[Kunxu Realm] I have been cultivating for eight hundred years, and I must have been here before. Do you know where the valuable treasures are hidden?"
When Qin Yue'er heard this, she replied with a troubled face: "Master Mingjian, although I have been here several times and took some treasures from it, I really don't know where the important treasures are hidden. I'm afraid even Senior Lan may not
Know."
"That's it..."
Zhou Yang looked at the continuous buildings in the mountains in front, pondered for a moment, then nodded gently and said: "It doesn't matter if you don't know. Yue'er, just follow Zhou and protect yourself when you come down. It's about getting the treasure."
Leave it to Zhou."
After saying that, he took the lead towards the building complex.
Flying is prohibited in the "Wanbao Tower" area, but that is for Golden Core Stage monks. Sixth-level Nascent Soul monks like Zhou Yang can completely carry the power of the Forbidden Air Array and forcefully fly within it.
If you don't abide by the rules, you may trigger attacks from other formations and bring yourself trouble.
Therefore, if it is not necessary, he will not do such a thing because of a small expense.
I saw him taking Qin Yue'er all the way deep into it, and soon passed through the outer areas for the Golden Core Stage monks to explore, and entered the inner treasure place.
The danger in this inner area is indeed far greater than that in the outer area. As soon as Zhou Yang entered it, a group of five stone figurine puppet sergeants suddenly came out from the mountain and rushed towards him.
The aura exuded by these stone figurine puppets ranges from the early stage of the Golden Elixir to the late stage of the Golden Elixir. When five stone figurine puppet sergeants work together to fight, it will be very difficult for the ninth-level Golden Elixir monks to deal with it.
But this time they found the wrong opponent.
Zhou Yang didn't even need to use any magic weapon, he just punched out several dragon-shaped punches to kill the stone figurines and puppets into ashes.
Stone figurine sergeant puppet, stone figurine monster, stone figurine knight...
The mountains in the inner area were like the tombs of some emperors. Every time Zhou Yang traveled a certain distance, these dead puppets would block his path and intercept him.
These stone figurine puppets were obviously made by monks in ancient times using special techniques. Their individual strength is far inferior to that of realm monks and monster beasts, or even inferior to the puppets made by current immortal cultivators.
But I can’t bear the number of these stone figurine puppets!
Nowadays, when a cultivator refines a fifth-level puppet, the total value of the various materials consumed is at least 500,000 to 600,000 low-grade spiritual stones. This is only the cost of materials. The high-grade spiritual stones consumed when the puppet is used later are even more.
It is difficult to measure.
However, these stone figurine puppets that were easily destroyed by Zhou Yang were only made of inconspicuous stones. The thing used to drive them to fight was not a spiritual stone, but a jade core carved with mysterious and complex spiritual patterns.
The jade core, combined with the spiritual patterns engraved on the body of the stone figurine puppet, can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and store it in it for use in the actions and battles of the stone figurine puppet. It will also self-destruct after the stone figurine puppet is destroyed.
Zhou Yang didn't know how much spiritual stone materials those ancient monks would have consumed to make such a stone figurine puppet, but he thought it would definitely be much lower than today's puppets, otherwise they wouldn't be so extravagant to make a large number of such stone figurine puppets to protect the cave.
He also tried to use magical powers to imprison stone figurine puppets, trying to develop this method of making puppets.
It is a pity that as soon as the jade core in the stone figurine puppet comes into contact with the monk's spiritual consciousness, it will immediately collapse on its own and cannot be studied and utilized at all.
After trying it a few times, Zhou Yang gave up on this idea and no longer bothered to do this kind of useless work.
After traveling in the inner area for most of the day, he finally found a target worthy of taking action.
It was a cave that was covered by a cyan formation light curtain. From the outside, the cave seemed very large, occupying half of the hilltop. Because of the formation's light curtain, everything inside could not be seen from the outside world.
After Zhou Yang studied outside for a while, he discovered that the formation of this cave had hardly been damaged, which meant that the monks who had come here in the past had not been able to enter it, and the treasures inside had probably not been taken away.
He came here to hunt for treasure, and of course he didn't want to end up in vain after all his efforts to break the formation protection.
So after discovering this cave with its protective formation intact, he decided to have an operation on it.
Most monks have only one way to deal with this ancient formation, and that is to forcefully break the formation.
After Zhou Yang decided to take action, he asked Qin Yue'er to step aside to protect him, and then summoned his external avatar to join him in attacking the cave's protective formation.
Since this cave has never been looted by others who broke the formation for so many years, the protective formation is naturally first-rate.
Zhou Yang just attacked from the outside and caused a counterattack from the formation.
The formation's counterattack came quite suddenly. As soon as Zhou Yang and his external avatar used their magical weapons to attack the formation's light curtain, countless sharp wind blades shot out from the cyan light curtain, attacking him and his external avatar.
The location formed a coverage strike.
Because of the existence of the forbidden air formation, Zhou Yang and his external avatar had no time to dodge this wave of attacks, so they could only use their own methods to protect themselves and retreat.
Fortunately, the magic weapon in his hand was excellent, and although the counterattack was fierce, it was not beyond his range. After a period of confusion, he quickly stabilized his position.
With this lesson learned, Zhou Yang will be more cautious in the future, and he will not forget to take precautions when attacking.
Fortunately, among Taoist Lan's treasures, he had refined a sixth-grade low-grade wood-attribute defensive weapon [Ironwood Shield] for his external avatar, and a pure defense weapon refined using [Ten Thousand Years Ironwood].
Magic weapon, then the incarnation can rest assured to hide behind the magic weapon and use the [Jiamu Leiyuan Pai] to output.
It is worth mentioning that during the more than 100 years that Zhou Yang was in seclusion, his external incarnation was not idle, but was also studying the method of integrating the "Jiamu Divine Thunder" and "Yimu Divine Thunder" in retreat.
Although a feasible method has not yet been found to combine the two wood-attributed divine thunders into one, a secret technique that can enhance the power of the "Jiamu Divine Thunder" has been developed, which can be used by the [Jiamu Leiyuan Pai]
The power of the "Jiamu Divine Thunder" exerted increased by 30% out of thin air.
It's a pity that this secret technique can only be used by his external incarnation, because except for his external incarnation that uses special materials to refine, other wood-attribute martial arts monks simply don't have this condition.
The noise caused by Zhou Yang and the others was quite loud. Not to mention the inner area, even the monks hunting for treasures on the outside could hear the roar and powerful mana fluctuations coming from here.
Soon after, some Nascent Soul stage monks who were also in the inner area came to investigate the situation.
However, when the monk who came to investigate the situation saw him from a distance, he hurriedly backed away as if avoiding a snake and a scorpion, and did not dare to come over again.
It was obvious that the monk had recognized him as the famous [Master Qianyang] and took the initiative to retreat due to his reputation.
In the following more than two months, several Nascent Soul Stage monks were attracted by the movements on Zhou Yang's side to check out the situation, and without exception, they all retreated immediately after recognizing his identity, just like the first person who came over.
Already.
Just kidding, he who used to be at the second level of Nascent Soul was able to cross over and kill the [Blood-clothed Ancestor] who was at the sixth level of Nascent Soul.
Now that he has the magical aura of the sixth level of Nascent Soul, it is revealed without any concealment. Unless he is a monk at the ninth level of Nascent Soul, "Half-step True Immortal", no Nascent Soul monk would dare to compete with him for treasures.
Moreover, it is not so much that the Nascent Soul Stage monks were attracted away by his reputation, but rather that they were scared away by the speed of his cultivation.
This was just how many years had passed since the demonic disaster in the Immortal Realm of Beiting Continent. It was widely rumored that he, who was only at the second level of Yuanying at that time, had advanced to the sixth level of Yuanying.
Such an astonishing speed of cultivation really frightens those who are also in the Nascent Soul stage.
If they hadn't known that it was impossible, those Nascent Soul stage monks who saw his current cultivation level would all wonder if he had been taken away by someone. Otherwise, how could his cultivation level improve so quickly!
Zhou Yang, who is at the sixth level of Nascent Soul, coupled with the seventh-level immortal weapon [Suzaku Fan] rumored to be in his control, this combination makes any Nascent Soul monk who sees him wisely not to conflict with him.
Unknowingly, Zhou Yang's status in the "Linghuan Realm" has been raised to an extremely high level by many monks of the same level, a level that makes most Nascent Soul Stage monks feel awe after seeing him.
.
This took more than five months, and Zhou Yang finally broke through the target cave's guarding formation without any interference and entered the real cave.
Hard work always pays off, and more than five months of hard work gave Zhou Yang rich rewards.
The half of the hilltop that I originally thought was a cave turned out to be not a cave, but a spiritual medicinal field rich in aura.
Because no one has taken care of them for a long time, most of the elixirs that were previously planted in the Lingpu medicine field have exhausted their longevity and withered to death. However, the small number of elixirs that can survive are all six-year-old elixirs that are more than ten thousand years old.
Level elixir.
[Ten Thousand Years Red Fruit], [Purple Star Grass] which is more than 10,000 years old, [Ten Thousand Years Golden Jade Ginseng], [Ten Thousand Years Evergreen Vine], [Ten Thousand Years Wind Spirit Grass]...
A bunch of extremely rare sixth-level elixirs were placed in front of Zhou Yang, waiting for him to pick them.
Even though he had seen many such rare elixirs in Taoist Lan's private cemetery before, he was still a little overwhelmed and confused at this time, and he didn't know where to start.
call!
Zhou Yang took a long breath, suppressed the joy and excitement in his heart, and then carefully picked these rare elixirs one after another.
These elixir types have different attributes, and the storage equipment must also be distinguished. Some are suitable for storage in jade boxes with warming and yang properties, some can only be stored in high-level spiritual wood medicine boxes, and some need to be stored in ice-cold boxes.
Attributes are sealed in the jade box.
Fortunately, Zhou Yang has these utensils on him all year round. At this time, there is no need to worry about the loss of the elixir's potency due to lack of suitable utensils.
After picking all the mature elixirs that could be harvested locally, Zhou Yang chose to transplant the remaining elixirs that did not meet the requirements for refining sixth-level elixirs but were still thousands of years old.
There is also a medicinal field opened in his [Dongxuan Pearl]. After these elixirs are transplanted and planted in it, there is no need to worry about any problems in a short period of time.
After working like this for several days, Zhou Yang finally completed harvesting the entire spiritual garden. After checking again and again, he determined that there was no harvest here and rushed to the next treasure hiding place.
Two years later, Zhou Yang, who had gained a lot in various places in [Kunxu Realm], returned to [Holy Infant Valley].
At this time, Taoist Lan had almost refined the puppet, and all preparations before leaving could begin.
After another two months of busy work, Taoist Lan debugged the puppet, and after confirming that the puppet could open and close the [Kunxu Realm] on his behalf, he personally helped Zhou Yang transplant the [Holy Infant Fruit] tree to the [Dongxuan Pearl]
Inside.
In order to ensure that this [Holy Infant Fruit] tree could survive and that the five immature [Holy Infant Fruits] on the tree could grow normally, Zhou Yang even did not hesitate to crush a top-quality earth attribute spiritual stone and bury it at the root of the tree.
Next, provide it with sufficient spiritual energy nutrients.
"Okay, there are still three days until [Kunxu Realm] is closed. Lan has set instructions for the puppet. When the time is up, it will activate the magic circle to send you out. Now it's time for Lan to sleep."
In [Holy Infant Valley], Taoist Lan waited until everything was tidied up, then nodded to Zhou Yang, and then lay directly into the [Netherworld Coffin] that Zhou Yang traded to him eight hundred years ago.
As a clone puppet made by the "Tianwai Immortal" specifically to guard the [Kunxu Realm], even if Taoist Lan has his own independent personality by chance, it is not easy to leave the [Kunxu Realm].
He himself cannot use the [Kunxu Order] to leave here, and he cannot even be taken away by ordinary storage rings or "Dongtian Magical Artifacts". Only the [Netherworld Mysterious Coffin] uses special spiritual materials [Netherworld Ironwood]
The secret treasure he made can help him completely cut off the connection between the inside and outside and avoid the restrictions placed on him by the [Kunxu Realm] magic circle.
This was also the most important reason why he made the deal with Zhou Yang at that time.
At this moment, after Zhou Yang waited for Taoist Lan to hide in the [Netherworld Mysterious Coffin], he waved his hand and put it into the storage ring, and then waited patiently with Qin Yue'er for the time to leave.
