Chapter 845 Prelude to Ascension
Zhou Xiaofeng's success in conceiving a baby is an extremely exciting and meaningful event for the entire Zhou family.
Zhou Yang was also very pleased with this matter, and specially summoned him to talk to him after he left the customs, and gave him a sixth-order low-grade magic weapon as a gift for his success in conceiving a baby.
"By the way, how is the disciple you accepted back then?"
In the cave mansion, Zhou Yang looked at Zhou Xiaofeng, who was thanking him endlessly after presents from his men, and suddenly remembered something, and suddenly asked about the son of the witch Huanqianqian.
At this time, the witch Huan Qianqian had passed away for many years, and her son Zhou Weixian was over 300 years old. If he hadn't been able to open up the Purple Mansion, he might have died long ago.
But Zhou Yang remembered that the boy was also a top-grade spiritual root aptitude, and he worshiped Zhou Xiaofeng as his teacher, so it was impossible to pass the Zifu test.
Sure enough, when he heard him ask about this matter at this time, Zhou Xiaofeng immediately responded respectfully: "If you go back to your ancestors, Xian'er is now at the ninth level of the Zifu, and the younger generation is preparing to train him for a few years. He exchanged a [Jade Liquid Golden Pill] from the family treasury to form a pill."
Hearing this, Zhou Yang couldn't help nodding his head slightly and said: "If this son succeeds in forming the alchemy, the memory sealed by my ancestor back then will probably be broken. When you think of his biological mother, you should pay more attention to this matter. Don't let him What happened."
After speaking, he told Zhou Xiaofeng about the witch Huanqianqian.
After successfully conceiving a baby, Zhou Xiaofeng is also qualified to be among the top circle of the Zhou family, and he is also qualified to know about it.
After Zhou Xiaofeng learned of the true origin of his apprentice, his face was also shocked, not a little surprised.
But looking at the indifferent Zhou Yang, he was determined, and he quickly replied solemnly: "Your junior understands, please rest assured, my ancestor, this junior will definitely pay close attention to this matter, and will never let Xian'er do anything wrong !"
Seeing that he understood the matter, Zhou Yang waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's nothing important to call you here this time, and now I've said everything that needs to be said, so you can step back first."
"Yes, this junior will leave."
Zhou Xiaofeng bowed respectfully again, then retreated.
Afterwards, Zhou Yang did not attend the Nascent Soul Ceremony held by the Zhou family for Zhou Xiaofeng, but asked Qin Yueer to take his grandson Zhou Tonghui and granddaughter Zhou Tongyue to represent him.
Brothers and sisters Zhou Tonghui and Zhou Tongyue, because of their noble backgrounds and their own high-quality aptitude, are already late-stage monks in the Purple Mansion when they are less than two hundred years old. Seeing that they can successfully form alchemy within two hundred years, it will not be difficult .
Moreover, after Zhou Yang returned, from the moment it was confirmed that the siblings would stay in the Zhou family in the future, Zhou Tonghui was directly established as the young patriarch of the Zhou family. In addition to practicing, he has learned to handle various affairs over the years.
Now what he said in the Zhou family is more useful than the patriarch Zhou Chuanxing.
Some Jindan elders of the Zhou family may still dare to complain about certain decisions and actions of the patriarch Zhou Chuanxing, or even speak out against them.
But no one dared to say "no" to what Zhou Tonghui did.
This made Zhou Tonghui, although he was only a cultivator at the Purple Mansion Stage, but his aura seemed to be much stronger than that of a cultivator at the Golden Core Stage.
Especially this time, because of Zhou Yang, the ancestor of the Zhou family, many monks of the Nascent Soul stage came to Zhou Xiaofeng's Nascent Soul Ceremony.
Sitting among them, Zhou Yang, a representative of a cultivator of the Zifu stage, he was not stage fright at all, without any sense of restraint, and his manner of talking and laughing happily made people almost think that he was a cultivator of the Nascent Soul stage.
Although Zhou Yang did not attend Zhou Xiaofeng's Nascent Soul Ceremony, he paid attention to the situation at the ceremony.
After seeing Zhou Tonghui's performance, he felt both gratified and dissatisfied.
"It's a bit outrageous. When a monk of the Zifu period talks to a monk of the Yuanying period, he is so casual, without even a little respect on the surface. Does he really think that he can sit on an equal footing with the monks of the Yuanying period?"
Zhou Yang frowned, and decided that he should beat the grandson up afterward.
Although Zhou Tonghui will be the patriarch in the future, no matter what he does, there will be no major problems for the Zhou family.
But this does not mean that Zhou Yang can tolerate his offspring, who are the second generation of immortals who can only bully others.
He doesn't ask his grandson to be as humble and prudent as himself, but he must not live like the kind of person he hates.
In the matter of educating future generations, he has never had any doting heart.
Zhou Yang’s method of beating his grandson is also very simple, that is, to seal his cultivation to the Qi training period, throw him to the world of cultivating immortals in the far west to hone, and arrange a Zhou family Jindan period monk to follow him secretly, and he is not allowed to reveal A little bit of original identity.
From a cultivator at the Zifu stage to a cultivator at the Qi training stage, the goal is to earn 10,000 low-grade spirit stones. During this period, the reputation and influence of the Zhou family cannot be used.
Although Zhou Yang's arrangement is not the kind of hell-level difficulty that is difficult to complete, it is not an easy task.
If Zhou Tonghui could do this, he would naturally learn to be in awe.
At this time, Zhou Guangzheng was about to reach adulthood, so Zhou Yang took him to the Great Bright Immortal Palace again, to inherit the "Great Bright Immortal Sutra" which is an immortal sutra-level exercise.
Qiao Yangming begged again this time, begging on his knees, wanting to keep Zhou Guangzheng in the Great Bright Immortal Palace as the Holy Son.
Although he now understood the truth about the reincarnation of [True Bright Lord], this did not hinder his plan to revive the reputation of the Immortal Palace with the help of Zhou Guangzheng.
"What do you mean? You are about to come of age now, what's your opinion on this matter?"
In the [Bright Palace], Zhou Yang looked at Qiao Yangming, who was begging on the ground, and did not help him up this time. Instead, he looked at his son Zhou Guangzheng, who had just received the inheritance, and asked for his opinion.
Zhou Guangzheng was already at the foundation-building stage, but because he wanted to switch to the "Great Light Immortal Scripture", he deliberately suppressed his cultivation at the foundation-building stage.
In the past ten years or so, he actually spent most of his time in the Zhou family's school, during which time he even went out to practice.
Although the face looks a little immature now, but the heart is mature, but it is not inferior to some adults in their twenties.
Hearing his father Zhou Yang's question at this time, he couldn't help but glance at Qiao Yangming who was looking at him eagerly on the ground, and said in a calm tone: "I don't care, anyway, no matter where you practice, it's the same for you."
He possesses [Pure Yang Dao Physique], and he will not have any practice bottlenecks before the Tribulation Period, which means that his demand for practice resources is many times lower than that of other monks.
So for him, it really doesn't matter where he practices.
But Zhou Yang was a little dissatisfied with his answer, so he couldn't help but said in a deep voice: "I'm asking if you agree to be the master of the Great Bright Immortal Palace in the future, whether you agree or not, before you conceive a baby , must not stay here to practice in the Great Bright Immortal Palace."
The Great Bright Immortal Palace is not the only overlord of the Immortal Cultivation Realm in the Far West, there is also a [Backlight Alliance] that has been hostile to them for thousands of years!
If the people of [Backlight League] knew that there was a "holy son" in the Great Bright Immortal Palace, even if Zhou Yang disclosed Zhou Guangzheng's identity, there would be no guarantee that the people of [Backlight League] would not rush to assassinate Zhou Guangzheng.
So even if Zhou Guangzheng agreed to join the Great Bright Immortal Palace, before his cultivation reached the Nascent Soul stage, until he could inherit and master the three inherited immortal artifacts of the Great Bright Immortal Palace, and had enough power to protect himself, Zhou Yang would not be able to let him go. He practiced in the world of cultivating immortals in the far west.
Zhou Guangzheng didn't think so far. After listening to Zhou Yang's words, he hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Then the child agrees. Anyway, since the Zhou family has confirmed that Tonghui will be the patriarch, my child As an uncle, he can't compete with his nephew for power!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qiao Yangming was overjoyed and shouted again and again: "Young fellow Daoist Zhou is so young, but he understands righteousness so well. Qiao really admires him. It is thanks to Qiao and Xiangong that the fairy palace can get a little fellow Daoist to join. Blessings for disciples!"
Zhou Yang couldn't look directly at such flattering words.
He didn't look at Qiao Yangming's fawning face, but just looked at Zhou Guangzheng with a straight face and said, "Zhenger, you have to think about it carefully. Although the owner of the Great Bright Immortal Palace is powerful, he also has a lot to do with it." , and even affect your safety in ascending to the upper world in the future!"
Zhou Guangzheng heard the words, but he laughed at himself and said: "Who can say what will happen in the future, father, you have also said that although the child is extremely talented, it may not necessarily be able to survive the calamity and become a fairy!"
After speaking, he shook his head and said: "What's more about the matter of ascending to the upper realm, even if the boy really has that day in the future, if the boy himself doesn't say that he is from the Great Bright Immortal Palace, who can really know about it?"
"Forget it, since you have really made up your mind, then I will support your decision as a father, so let's settle this matter!"
Zhou Yang sighed and nodded slightly, agreeing to the matter.
When Qiao Yangming heard his words, he was overjoyed immediately, kowtowed and thanked him again and again: "Thank you for your kindness, the immortal, the kindness, this junior and the immortal palace will never forget it!"
"Fellow Daoist Qiao, get up. Although this matter is settled, just like what Zhou said before, before Zheng'er's cultivation reaches the Nascent Soul stage, no second monk from the Immortal Palace besides you can know about this matter." Otherwise, not only will this matter be invalidated, but Zhou will punish him severely!"
Zhou Yang waved his hand, looked at Qiao Yangming sternly and gave a warning.
"Rest assured, the junior understands the importance of this, and must keep his mouth shut and never reveal a word!"
Qiao Yangming nodded emphatically, and agreed wholeheartedly.
After the two parties reached an agreement, Zhou Yang asked Qiao Yangming to fetch some previous palace masters of the Great Bright Immortal Palace, including [True Lord Guangming]'s own cultivation experience in the "Great Bright Immortal Scripture", as well as some exercises suitable for the light attribute. Zhou Guangzheng handed over all the magic tools used by the monks for sacrifice, and then left the Great Bright Immortal Palace with his son.
After returning to Zhou's house, Zhou Guangzheng was handed over by Zhou Yang to his mother, Qin Yue'er, to take care of him, while he himself continued to retreat and comprehend the "Xuanyang Treasure", seeking a way to complete it.
Two years later, Jinpeng and Bi'er, who went out to look for refining materials for him, also returned one after another, bringing him several top-notch refining materials currently available in the world of cultivating immortals.
With these materials in hand, Zhou Yang immediately stopped comprehending the exercises, and entered the refining room to refine the defensive treasures required by [True Deadwood].
In this way, after almost a year of refining, a top-tier sixth-tier high-grade defensive magic weapon was refined by Zhou Yang.
After the magic weapon was refined, Zhou Yang didn't delay, and immediately asked Jin Peng to take the "Kurong Valley" that was sent to the world of cultivating immortals in Tiannan Continent, and hand it over to [True Dead Wood] for sacrifice.
But he himself went to the Xuanyang Immortal Sect alone, and together with his eldest son Zhou Guangcheng, deduced the "Xuanyang Treasure", trying to complete this incomplete immortal scripture as soon as possible, so as not to delay Zhou Guangcheng's future breakthrough.
As a practitioner of "Xuanyang Treasure", although Zhou Guangcheng has not practiced to the end of the original version of this exercise, he naturally has his own uniqueness in the understanding of this exercise. , a condition that does not exist.
Now the father and son are working together to deduce and study the follow-up exercises, and the progress is indeed much faster than Zhou Yang alone.
Moreover, this kind of deduction also helped Zhou Guangcheng gain a deeper understanding of this technique, and the bottleneck that blocked him from breaking through the late Yuanying stage was also slightly loosened.
After discovering this benefit, he also paid more attention to this matter, hoping to use this opportunity to completely break through the bottleneck.
Time flies, and thirty-two years have passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, Zhou Yang was performing the exercise of "Xuanyang Treasure" as usual, but the [Xu Tianzhu] left by [True Dead Wood] suddenly activated automatically.
"The news came from Du Xianyou a few days ago, and half a year later it will be the time for us to ascend. Before that, I hope Zhou Xianyou can come to talk about it."
In mid-air, as soon as the primordial spirit avatar of [True Deadwood] condensed into shape, he explained the reason straight to the point.
When Zhou Yang heard this, his expression froze, and he immediately nodded and said, "I understand, please wait a moment, withered tree friend, Zhou will set off for the fairy cave."
After accepting this matter, Zhou Yang thought about it, and took his son Zhou Guangcheng with him to the "Kurong Valley".
He expected Taoist Xiao Ying to try the effect of [Dry Rong Life and Death Qi] this time, and Zhou Guangcheng, as the son of the two, would be better present at this time.
The father and son traveled all the way, and under the leadership of Zhou Yang, a true immortal in the Transcending Tribulation Period, they arrived at the "Kurong Valley" in less than three months.
But when Zhou Yang rushed here, he found that [Renowned Kurong] not only notified himself, but another human immortal, Feng Wuji, had already arrived here before him.
"Feng Xianyou was invited by the old man to witness on his behalf, and the old man's two disciples and granddaughters have also become Taoist couples with Feng Xianyou's two apprentices. In the future, the human race will rely on Zhou Xianyou and Feng Xianyou to take care of them!"
[Real Man with Dead Wood] The main body smiled slightly at Zhou Yang, and told the whole story in a flat tone.
