In the past five years, Zhang Sidao's weapon refining skills have been promoted to the third level of low-level. Qingchan also broke through the sixth level of foundation building four years ago. He is afraid that he will catch up with Zhang Zhixuan in a year or two.
Last year, relying on the abundant spiritual energy of Chaoyin Mountain, the clan leader's cultivation level took another step forward, breaking through to the eighth level of foundation building like Han Yan.
However, the clan leader is already more than three years old, and his vitality was damaged in his early years. His longevity is only less than forty years, and there is no possibility of opening up the Zi Mansion.
In the past five years, four monks from the Zhang family have broken through to the ninth level of Qi training, and the number of family elders has exceeded thirteen.
It's a pity that Zhang Siyang and Zhang Zhixing still don't have the guts to take the risk and pass the test, and their good deeds are not enough to exchange for the foundation building pills. So they passed the age of sixty and missed the opportunity to build the foundation.
Of these four new ninth-level qi-training monks who have made breakthroughs, except for one monk of the Zhi generation, the rest are all of the Si generation. When Zhang Zhixuan was seventy years old, the Si generation monks had already grown up, while the Meng generation monks had already grown up.
Gradually wither.
Among the monks of the Meng generation, the eleventh uncle had passed away the year before last and died peacefully at home. Of the six elders in the family when Zhang Zhixuan first started practicing Taoism, now only the nineteenth uncle is left.
Below the eleventh uncle, there are only five or six monks of the Meng generation in the family left. The youngest of their generation is Han Yan, who is now seventy-seven years old. The remaining brothers and sisters have either passed away or died of cruelty.
in the fight.
The thirteenth uncle, Zhang Menghan, has also been bedridden for a long time, and it is estimated that he has reached the end of his life. He is almost 116 years old, and is very close to the end of his life as a Qi Refining monk.
The sixteenth uncle Zhang Menggong also retired from the post of magistrate of Lushan County and went to Tiantai Peak to spend his old age. The grandson of the ninth uncle, Zhang Siheng, took his place and assumed the post of magistrate of Lushan County.
This child's spiritual power is very poor. He is now over fifty years old and his cultivation is only at the second level of Qi Refining. Even if Zhang Zhixuan wants to take care of him, he can't find the strength at all. Fortunately, he is very happy in Lushan County. As long as the Zhang family does not collapse, he
You can enjoy a lifetime of glory and wealth, and live a majestic life among mortals.
Five years ago, the Zhang family anticipated that a war would break out and began to hoard resources to prepare for the war.
Zhang Zhixuan's guess was right. Only five years had passed, and just when Zhang Sidao had finished revising the classics and was about to return to the sect, the war finally broke out.
Qingxuanzong issued an unprecedented recruitment order. Almost all the foundation-building monks in the entire Zhang family were included in the recruitment order. Even Qingchan and the old and frail patriarch, who rarely showed up, were asked to participate in this operation.
The scale of this mobilization almost exceeded that of the monster rebellion every hundred years. The entire Zhang family had to mobilize ninety Qi-refining monks to participate in the war.
Zhang Zhixuan has been practicing Taoism for more than 50 years. Over the past 50 years, his family has developed smoothly, and the population has almost doubled. Now there are 163 monks registered in the family tree alone, and the rest are still there.
There are thirty-two guests with foreign surnames.
When a war breaks out this time, Zhang Zhixuan will naturally not be polite. As long as these guests do not have any skills, all of them will be added to the recruitment list. In addition, Zhang Zhixuan also recruited about thirty people from the Zhou family and other vassal families.
Soon Zhang Zhixuan led ninety monks to gather towards Yanlai Peak, ride a large magic weapon flying boat over the Duanyun Mountains, and then obey the orders at the foot of Yuntai Mountain.
Because the space of Qingxuanzong's flying boat was not large and could not hold too many people, the Jin Patriarch specially borrowed his large flying boat from Liang Taixu, and even purchased twenty large whale beasts from the Song Dynasty to carry it.
Transport baggage.
Even Zhang Zhixuan's flying magic weapon must be donated and handed over to the monks of Qingxuanzong for transportation. The family's horse team must also be dispatched by Qingxuanzong to transport baggage for the front line in Taicheng County.
After five years of preparation, Qingxuan Sect has accumulated a large amount of spiritual rice in Chaoyin Mountain. The Zifu monks even took action and spent five years to open three tunnels in Duanyun Mountain to climb over the three most dangerous ones.
peak.
Zhang Zhixuan led his people to Yanlai Peak and found that the Wu and Liu families had already arrived. When Zhang Zhixuan and his people arrived, they took a whale beast to gather at Chaoyin Mountain.
The whale beast has a docile character. Its body is ten feet long, about three feet wide, and one foot eight feet tall. Its body is streamlined. It also has a pair of huge wings on its two ribs, which are more than thirty or forty feet long when fully stretched.
Although this large monster beast is only at the third level, it is the most important kind of domesticated monster beast for humans. Whale beasts are extremely powerful, have great endurance and are good at flying. The monks almost completely rely on them for their luggage transportation.
The price of a whale beast is very expensive, almost more than the price of a foundation-building pill, and these whale beasts have been castrated and cannot breed.
Qingxuanzong mined the Lingshi mine in Chaoyin Mountain, which increased their income by 20,000 Lingshi every year. Now that the Lingshi mine has been mined for twenty years, the accumulated income has been very considerable. It is precisely because of the huge increase in income that they
I have enough money to buy whale beasts and prepare for the war with Hongshan Sect.
Under the whale beast, there is a huge pod. The pod has a huge space and can accommodate thirty people at a time.
When Zhang Zhixuan and the others arrived, the Qingxuan Sect monks counted the number of people and immediately rode on the whale beasts to assemble towards Chaoyin Mountain.
The flying speed of the whale beast is not fast, and it is far inferior to the sword-flying of the foundation-building monks. However, compared with the speed of the Qi-training monks, it is still much faster. In just seven or eight days, everyone arrived at the foot of Chaoyin Mountain.
Chaoyin Mountain Lingshi Mine has been mined for twenty years, and the mortals on the mountain have multiplied and multiplied, forming four towns.
Over the past twenty years, the number of 60,000 mortals on the mountain has grown to more than 80,000.
In order to facilitate the cultivation of these newborn children, Qingxuan Sect established a spiritual detection platform in Chaoyin Mountain. Some children born in Chaoyin Mountain have had their spiritual roots detected.
In the past twenty years, three children of the Zhang family alone were born in Chaoyin Mountain. After their spiritual roots were detected, they returned to Lingjing Mountain to practice.
Since the clan leader took control of Chaoyin Mountain, the two of them have rarely seen each other, and usually can only communicate through letters.
After the two met, they chatted all night. They waited for a few more days, and when Qingchan settled things at home, he came to Chaoyin Mountain to join everyone.
This time to attack the Hongshan Sect, the Qingxuan Sect almost came out in full force, including Han Yan, the seed that opened up the Zifu. The number of foundation-building monks gathered in Chaoyin Mountain soon exceeded one hundred.
Han Yan had completed the task of guarding the spiritual field two years ago and regained his freedom. This time he also followed everyone to Chaoyin Mountain. Among the five foundation-building monks of the Zhang family, except Zhang Sidao, who stayed in the sect, the rest
