In the new practice secret room, Zhang Hao slowly opened his eyes, and the aura of the middle stage of the golden elixir spread out faintly. After starting school at Beidou Academy and officially getting on the right track, Zhang Hao began to practice in seclusion.
During this period, I occasionally went out to pay attention to the development, occasionally checked in with the Zhang family and Dayang Group, and then continued to retreat.
Since things are on the right track, Zhang Hao can finally be a hands-off shopkeeper and can rest assured that he will be in seclusion for a while.
This retreat lasted for more than three months. Zhang Hao sorted out everything that had happened since time travel, especially focusing on sorting out his own practice, consolidating his cultivation and foundation. He focused on clarifying the meaning of Zhou Tianxingdou
.
Zhang Hao had been puzzled before, there were tens of thousands of stars in the sky, how could there be a '366 Stars in the Sky'. Now he finally figured it out, those are 366 acupuncture points! They are acupoints in the starry sky!
In the traditional thinking of the Zhoutian Xingdou, or from the ancient ruins excavated there, the Zhoutian Xingdou is modeled on the human body, and the stars in the sky are distinguished according to the acupoints on the human body, and then the so-called 366 'acupoints' are distinguished.
This is the general meaning of Zhoutian Xingdou.
The actual meaning is very complicated. To match the starry sky with the human body one-to-one, the knowledge involved is extremely complicated. Zhang Hao spent a lot of effort and only understood one thing. This knowledge is very unfamiliar. This kind of star official,
Mixed with animal names, combined with the yin and yang, five elements and the starry sky division of the human body, it is very complicated and cumbersome.
Zhang Hao bit the bullet and thought about it for a long time, but in the end he just barely got a rough idea, which was helpful for his practice.
Withdrawing his mind, Zhang Hao felt the power of the golden elixir at its peak in the middle stage and smiled lightly.
With the help of the roots of the Nine Earth Red Lotus brought back from the Red Lotus Sect, the Zhang family established a perfect practice base (Secret Realm). The base has rich, active spiritual energy to assist in practice, and there are also Nine Earth Red Lotus.
The breath of fire helps tempering.
Although practicing in such an environment is a bit painful, the progress is rapid and the foundation is stable.
In fact, the aura of the Nine Earth Red Lotus is equivalent to a kind of strange fire. Zhang Hao had this realization when he watched Feng Zhiling refining the flying sword, but such a strange fire cannot last. But with the Nine Earth Red Lotus
After Lian, the Zhang family established a long-lasting practice base.
The roots of the Nine Earth Red Lotus are not dead. The Zhang family can feed them through spiritual stones, monster flesh and blood, etc. Now, the Nine Earth Red Lotus' roots have actually sprouted!
Zhang Hao walked out of his secret room and saw that there were closed hermitage rooms all around. There were people in solitary confinement in them. Even if there was a seal to isolate them, they could still feel the tyrannical atmosphere inside.
After such a long time, there are more and more masters from the Zhang family and Dayang Group. As the theory of the round earth spreads, and as the great voyage proceeds, a large number of masters come to seek refuge. Almost all of these masters are in the Nascent Soul stage.
Most of them are in the middle Nascent Soul stage or above.
Zhang Hao walked towards the center of the base. The closer he got to the center, the stronger the aura of flames became. And the aura coming from the surrounding secret rooms became more intense.
Finally, Zhang Hao came to the end of the secret room and happened to see Fu Yun's secret room slowly opening, and Fu Yun and his disciple Ge Dong walked out of it.
At this time, Ge Dong was sweating profusely, and there was another layer of dirt on the surface of his body. Zhang Hao saw it and immediately stepped forward to congratulate him, "Congratulations, Brother Shi, on your rebirth. Are you about to enter the Nascent Soul stage?"
Fu Yun gave Zhang Hao a gentle smile, "It's still early. We have just entered the late stage of the golden elixir. But you have made great progress."
"Of course we have to make progress, otherwise we would have wasted such a good environment and time. I want to see the roots of the Nine Earth Red Lotus. Senior, do you want to come and have a look?"
Fu Yun shook his head, "Forget it. Although I am also curious, it is an important thing of Dayang Group after all, so I won't go there."
"Okay. Senior should be in the middle stage of becoming a god, right?"
"It's not that fast!" Fu Yun laughed a little, "It's just like the peak in the early stages. If you want to break through, you still have to work hard."
"Then if you have the spirit of a fairy, can you speed up your cultivation?"
"Fairy spirit energy?" Fu Yun frowned slightly, "Of course it will be much faster if it is used for cultivation. But fairy spirit energy is not consumed in this way."
"Senior, don't get excited, I'm just asking. Okay, I'll go inside and take a look first." After Zhang Hao finished speaking, he left, leaving Fu Yun in a daze.
I'm just asking...that's all...that's all...
It wasn't until Zhang Hao's figure disappeared behind the core door that Fu Yun laughed and said to himself, "I really want to stop you and beat you up. But, based on my understanding of you, since you said that, then
You must have thought about it. I don’t know where you want to get the fairy spirit from?"
Zhang Hao entered the core area of the secret room and walked underground. There is also earth fire here in the Zhang family, and the roots of the Nine Earth Red Lotus are planted here.
Under the environment of Zhangjia's man-made holy land and the support of a large number of spiritual stones, the roots of the Nine Earth Red Lotus have become full of life. At the cutoff point, among the withered remains more than ten meters thick, a crystal clear plant looks like a coral.
Ordinary buds are growing vigorously.
This bud is already more than three meters tall, with a small flower bud at the top. Feeling Zhang Hao's arrival, the flower bud actually swayed slightly.
Zhang Hao slowly flew up, came to Huagu Duo and gently touched it. After communicating for a while, or cultivating feelings for a while, he dripped a few drops of blood, and then Zhang Hao came to the ground.
On the ground, a full ten 'spiritual stone cooking' devices are operating, and vigorous spiritual energy bursts out from them. This spiritual energy is either absorbed by the roots of the Nine Earth Red Lotus, or enters the secret chamber passage.
The entire training base is shrouded in a barrier, and the spiritual energy inside the base is billowing. The spiritual energy is ten times more intense than that of the Holy Land. It is only less active than the Holy Land and lacks a sense of vitality and nature. But as a training environment, it is enough.
The people responsible for taking care of Jiudi Honglian are the Swordsmen and Swordsmen. This couple has now fully joined the Zhang family. They are the Zhang family, not the Dayang Group.
Since returning from the first voyage, the two of them vowed to join the Zhang family. After going out for a while and seeing what happened in Taotu Continent, the two of them felt more and more that the future of the Zhang family was limitless. Taking advantage of the development
When you first join the Zhang family, you can at least become a senior member.
The most important thing is that the two also want to use the power of the Nine Earth Red Lotus to see if there is a way to enter the divine transformation stage without using the spirit of the fairy.
The Nine-District Red Lotus of the Red Lotus Sect is too dangerous, and now this weak, newly sprouted Nine-Division Red Lotus may be an opportunity.
At this time, the two of them were practicing, and Zhang Hao didn't bother them. He walked around, checked his territory, and left proudly.
Arriving outside the training base, Zhang Hao stretched hard. This retreat lasted for three months. The reason why Zhang Hao left the retreat was because according to the agreement between Qixia Country and Xuanzhen Sect, he would not be allowed to retreat again.
In about ten days, it will be half a year.
At this time, the entire western part of the Fertile Continent was brewing with unrest! We arrived in half a year, and we still don’t know what to do.
Now not only the other five countries are preparing for war, but also the country of Qixia. Both sides are preparing for a war! A war that truly has no room for maneuver.
A few months have passed, and rumors that the Kingdom of Qixia wants to unify the West have spread all over the sky. The Kingdom of Zhongshan was still somewhat dissatisfied with the other four countries, but now it has no choice but to fully join.
Zhang Hao will pay attention to these news even if he is in retreat. In other words, Zhang Hao will spend about ten days and a half in retreat each time, and then he will take three or two days to inspect Dayang Group and pay attention to the development of the country. After processing,
will continue to retreat.
Zhang Hao was thinking as he slowly walked towards the seaside, with cars passing by all the way. The railway from the port to Changshan Town, and then to Luanci Mountain and Ninghe County has been expanded to four tracks.
The structure of the locomotive has been optimized a lot, and the speed has also been improved.
A train rumbled past, and the locomotive was loaded with profiles from Luancishan Xuantie Factory, including I-beams, steel plates, etc.
More than three months have passed, and more than 300 of the first batch of 1,000 seeds who went to Xuanzhen Sect have entered the Nascent Soul stage and returned. These people are guarding every position of Dayang Group. As for the Zhang family's steel production base,
Also moved to Luanci Mountain.
Due to industrial reintegration, steel costs have further declined and output has increased rapidly.
However, the price of high-purity black iron and steel sold by Dayang Group has dropped slightly, but it is very small. Today, black iron and steel still have a wide market.
As Feng Zhiling led more than 300 people to open up land trade routes, Xuanzhen Sect saw the benefits and got involved. Now Lingfeng Group is almost controlled by Xuanzhen Sect, with Feng Zhiling only retaining a small share.
Today, Lingfeng Group has become the largest business group in the West of the Fertile Continent. Every day, it purchases a large amount of dark iron, steel, profiles, elixirs, etc. from the Kingdom of Qixia and the Ocean Group, and then sells them to various Western countries in the Fertile Continent.
, and even caravans have entered the central part of the Fertile Continent. The Xiaoyao faction's blockade has completely failed.
Similarly, Lingfeng Group will also bring a large amount of medicinal materials, precious spiritual materials, etc., to inject impetus into the development of Qixia Country and Dayang Group.
Zhang Hao walked slowly towards the seaside, greetings from strong men with various accents from time to time along the way. Today's Dayang Group has attracted hundreds of masters from the Continent of Big Earth, the Continent of Fertile Earth, and even the Continent of Kunlun to join after passing the review
There are hundreds of people from Dayang Group.
Many of these masters have certain professional knowledge, such as weapon refining, alchemy, formations, special cultivation secrets, etc. There are even beast tamers. Those who came from the Taotu Continent naturally include demons.
Practitioner.
A considerable number of people are astrologers, or have relationships with astrologers. They are attracted by the theory of a round earth.
Also, with the rise of the round earth theory, the legend of the Nine Immortals Mountain overseas has once again become popular. And the steel battleships of Dayang Group have also given many people new hope.
Perhaps, we can explore the outer sea through steel battleships!
Zhang Hao heard a lot of talk along the way. When he arrived at the port, Zhang Hao looked at the busy port and smiled confidently.
Today, the port has been expanded to three kilometers in length, and four steel warships are moored in the port. The flags hanging on the steel warships are not the Sea Eagle flag of Ocean Group, nor the Zixia Golden Phoenix flag of the Qixia Kingdom. There are two kinds of Qixia Kingdom,
One is the national flag, the Zixia Golden Phoenix Flag, and the other is the Queen's exclusive flag, the Black Background Fire Phoenix Flag.
Hanging on the battleship is the Jinyun Ziyang Flag, the flag of the Xuanzhen Sect. This is the newly designed flag of the Xuanzhen Sect. Among the misty golden clouds, a mountain peak is looming; a purple-red morning sun rises slowly in the misty golden clouds. This
The flag draws on the meaning of Xuanzhen's 'Purple Yang Gong'.
Since signing the agreement with Xuanzhen Sect, Dayang Group has also been continuously improving its shipbuilding technology and increasing its shipbuilding scale.
The shipyard can now build five battleships at the same time.
Today, Dayang Group has frantically produced 13 warships, of which Dayang Group owns six. One has been sold to the Country of Canglan and has now entered the final testing phase.
Four more were given to the Xuanzhen Sect. The last two warships were given to the Kingdom of Qixia.
Now Dayang Group has built the "Dayang Group First Fleet", with the general person in charge and the commander-in-chief Dugu Junjie. It includes one Zhiyuan battleship and five Iron Duke-class 10,000-ton battleships.
Xuanzhen Sect also built its own fleet, four steel battleships, all of the Iron Duke class. The name of the fleet is very loud, Weihai Fleet. Yes, it is Weihai Fleet. When Zhang Hao heard this name, he almost bit off his tongue.
But having said that, there is really nothing wrong with this name, it is a very powerful name.
The person in charge of the fleet is Lu Xuanyu, a disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall, with the Taoist name Zhengxuanzi. He is Zhang Hao's senior brother. He is slightly younger than Feng Zhiling and is Feng Zhiling's junior brother. However, his military ability is far ahead of Feng Zhiling's.
A street.
Finally, there is the Xiaoshou state, the "Pearl Fleet" of the royal family of Qixia Kingdom, which has only two ships in total. The captain is of course Shu Bennan.
Today, the Weihai Fleet of the Xuanzhen Sect has just returned from the south, bringing back a huge amount of resources. Mountains of medicinal materials, a large amount of materials (flesh, bones, fur, etc.) from sea monsters and land monsters), as well as a variety of spiritual materials.
Boxes of precious medicinal materials were priced by the ton, and merchants on the seaside were bidding at the top of their lungs. Almost all transactions between the two parties used checks from Green Boat Bank, and the entire port was busy.
The train stopped directly at the port, and a large number of people on the sixth and seventh floors of the Qi Refining Stage shouted slogans and piled a large amount of goods onto the train board.
The cargo carried on one battleship can carry three to four trains.
Zhang Hao was watching when a melodious whistle sounded from the sea in the distance, and he saw six warships flying the flags of the Ocean Group and the Qixia Country slowly approaching, four from the Ocean Group and two from the Royal Family.
Far away, Dugu Junjie couldn't help but fly up and shouted, "Big news, big news. This fleet went south for more than 20,000 kilometers to establish contact with the Heavenly Demon Sect in the south of Taotu Continent, and purchased the Heavenly Demon Sect's Jingzhou."
Peninsula', 1 million square kilometers!
This time, we have brought resources from the south of Taotu Continent. I guarantee that no one has seen them before!
Get ready to go crazy..."
This time, even Zhang Hao was shocked. This time he actually purchased 1 million square kilometers! What is this concept? It is almost one-third of the current Qixia Kingdom!
The entire beach was stunned, but the next moment it broke out.
The four Xuanzhen Sect warships in the port quickly unloaded their cargo and immediately moved to the side; the six 10,000-ton warships rolled up huge waves and slowly approached.
Far away, Zhang Hao saw a "familiar yet strange" creature on the battleship.
giraffe!
However, this giraffe has a sharp horn on its head, which grows twice. At this time, the giraffe is in a sealed state.
