Cultivation Begins From The Desert

Chapter 25 Haoyang Grotto

"[Earth Yuan Spiritual Milk] is a necessary auxiliary drug for refining the foundation building pill, but it also has another effect, that is, after taking it, the ninth-level monks who are less than a hundred years old in the qi training period can restore their physical vitality to sixty. The state before the age of 10, has a precious opportunity to hit the foundation building stage!"

The old patriarch Zhou Minghan ignored Zhou Xuanhao's wildly changed expression, and said in a low tone what Zhou Xuanhao had deliberately ignored before.

"Old patriarch, you..."

Zhou Xuanhao opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but as if he had something to hide, he couldn't say it, his expression was very ugly.

Unexpectedly, the old patriarch did not let him go, but looked at him and shouted in a deep voice: "Xuan Hao, I know what you want to say, but I tell you that since you have embarked on the road of cultivating immortals, you can only go forward move forward!"

"If you cultivated immortality just to live 20 or 30 years longer than ordinary people, just to have such a weak ability now, then it would be better to be an ordinary person and live an ordinary life in peace and stability!"

Zhou Xuanhao was shocked, and a strong look of struggle suddenly appeared in his eyes.

At this moment, the old man Zhou Quan also said: "Xuan Hao, you also know that your spiritual root aptitude is actually no worse than Xuan Yu's. If it weren't for the lack of alchemists in your family, you would have spent a lot of time practicing If you put it on alchemy, you will not be promoted to the ninth level of Qi training at the age of sixty-three!"

After the old man Zhou Quan finished speaking, the third elder of the Zhou family, Zhou Dan, also hurriedly said: "Yes, Xuan Hao, the old patriarch and the third brother are right, you delayed the opportunity to attack the foundation for the sake of the family. Given a chance to do it all over again, why can't you make up your mind to try again? To put it bluntly, even if you fail, you still have Xiao Jiu, an outstanding junior, to inherit your career, and you can have no regrets in this life!"

When Zhou Xuanhao heard this, the look of struggle in his eyes suddenly became more intense. He looked at the confused Zhou Yang with complicated eyes, and his throat twitched, as if he had something to say.

"Okay, don't talk about it, it seems that this [Earth Yuanling Milk] will take about ten or eight years to condense. Xuan Hao, you still have a lot of time to think about it. If you think about it by then, you can Come and tell the old man, as long as you want, this first copy will definitely be kept for you!"

With a wave of his hand, the old patriarch Zhou Minghan stopped the words of the "Guang" elders who wanted to persuade them again, and also made Zhou Xuanhao's words rush back into his stomach again.

He held back what he wanted to say, nodded his head heavily and said: "Xuan Hao understands, the younger generation will definitely consider seriously what the old patriarch and the elders have said."

Zhou Yang remained silent all this time, because he didn't know what riddles the old patriarch and the others were playing.

But after hearing it now, if he still doesn't understand what the old patriarch and the others are talking about, then all these years of his life will be in vain.

"It turns out that the old patriarch and the others wanted my father to take [Earth Yuan Spiritual Milk] to impact the foundation-building period. No wonder my father, who has always respected his elders, would be so embarrassed this time!"

Zhou Yang wanted to understand this matter, and his heart suddenly became extremely heavy.

Zhou Xuanhao is already eighty-seven this year, and he has lost Yuanyang again. Even if he takes [Earth Yuan Spiritual Milk] to restore his body vitality to the state before he was sixty years old, the probability of successful foundation establishment will not exceed 100% five!

With such a low probability of building a foundation, it's no wonder Zhou Xuanhao couldn't make up his mind.

After all, he is not alone now, he already has a wife and a son, these are his concerns.

But on the other hand, as the old man Zhou Dan said, after having a wife and son and having lived for nearly a hundred years, at this time there is another chance to hit the foundation-building period. Even if it fails, life can be regarded as No more regrets.

"Will Father agree? If it were me, how would I choose?"

Zhou Yang secretly glanced at the heavy-faced father, even though there were thousands of words in his heart, he couldn't utter a single word.

As a son of man, if he persuaded his father to agree, once his father failed to attack the foundation establishment and fell, that would be unfilial.

But as a cultivator, if he persuaded his father not to agree, it would be tantamount to cutting off his father's path with his own hands, which is also a kind of unfilial piety.

At this time, I can only pretend to be stupid!

Fortunately, at this time, other elders of the Zhou family entered the stone room to report the information about the cave exploration to the old patriarch, helping him relieve this embarrassment.

"Qi old patriarch, I have explored the dark river, but I didn't find any other monsters hiding, nor did I find any traces of spirits. It seems that it is just an ordinary branch of the underground river passing by."

The person who spoke was Zhou Xuanyan, the eighth-ranked female monk in the "Xuan" generation of the Zhou family. She is a relatively rare water-type kung fu monk in the boundless sand sea. Therefore, after entering the cave, she took the initiative to accept the task of exploring the underground river.

The underground river is a strange place. Even in a dry place deep inland like the boundless sand sea, some water-type monsters may appear in the underground river. These water-type monsters live in the underground river, almost There are no natural enemies, and sometimes there will be third-tier or even fourth-tier monsters.

Therefore, once an immortal cultivator finds an underground river, he will carefully investigate the situation before deciding whether to build a settlement nearby.

"You can't be careless about this matter. The old man remembers that Qian'er restored a second-tier water-attribute top-grade formation and put it in the family's treasure house. Later, the old man will ask Xuantai to fetch it and set it up in the dark river. When the time comes, Xuanyan, you will help him. "

The old patriarch Zhou Minghan pondered for a while, and decided it was better to be more cautious.

Although the second-tier top-tier formation cannot defend against the attacks of third-tier and fourth-tier monsters, it can still serve as a warning, allowing the family monks who will be stationed at the stone room in the future to have time to react.

But when he thought of Zhou Qian, the great elder of the Zhou family who had passed away, Zhou Minghan's mood became heavy again for no reason.

He glanced at the monks of the Zhou family in the stone room, and with a move, a metal disc with more than a dozen light yellow flags appeared in his hand.

"This [Golden Spear Formation] is Qian'er's last work left in the world. Although it is only a low-grade third-rank, it is very suitable for the attributes of the spirit veins here. You can go and assist Xuantai to set up this formation right now! "

Sighing and telling the origin of the metal disc, Zhou Minghan tossed it lightly, and the array fell into the hands of old man Zhou Quan beside him.

When everyone was ordered to leave one after another, he seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly said: "By the way, Xiao Jiu stayed."

"Xiao Jiu, strictly speaking, you discovered this spirit vein. Have you thought about how to name it?"

Zhou Yang, who was named and left, was wondering what the old patriarch wanted to say when he named and left him, but he waited for such a question.

He was taken aback for a moment, and finally answered after a while: "Since great-grandfather asked my grandson this, my grandson will be daring. What do you think of Haoyang Grotto?"

"Haoyang Cave, Haoyang Cave, well, from now on, this place will be called Haoyang Cave!"

The old patriarch chanted the name of "Haoyang Cave", waved his sleeve, and a beam of flashing sword light flew out quickly, and carved the three characters "Haoyang Cave" on the wall of the stone room.

After finishing this, the old patriarch took back the flying sword, looked at Zhou Yang with a straight face and asked, "Xiao Jiu, this Haoyang Cave is a natural spiritual vein of the third-order low-grade, and it is connected by an underground underground river. It has great potential for future development." , the old man is thinking about your foundation building in the future, so he moved here to sit in town, what do you think?"

Why do you ask yourself now about things after foundation establishment?

There was a flash of doubt on Zhou Yang's face, and suddenly his heart moved, and he couldn't help blurting out: "The meaning of great-grandfather is that he wants his grandson to practice in seclusion here for the rest of the time?"

"Children can be taught!"

Zhou Minghan looked at Zhou Yang approvingly and nodded, and then said his plan.

"Haoyang Grotto is a third-order natural spiritual vein, and it is adjacent to the red flame iron mine. In terms of actual value, it is not much inferior to the Yuquan Lake Oasis. Before there are no foundation-building monks guarding it, the old man will not let the family's low-level The monks came here to prevent the news from being leaked to outsiders."

"When the [Golden Armor Formation] is set up, the old man will take Xuan Hao and the others back to the family. At that time, Quan'er, Dan'er, Xuan Yan, and Xiao Jiu will guard the place. With the four of you practicing The monks guarding this place in the late stage of Qi, relying on the power of the formation, even if there are third-order monsters attacking, they can still resist the old man coming to rescue, so there is no need to worry about safety issues at all!"

"Of course the most important thing is that the environment here is more suitable for your practice than Yuquanfeng. If you practice here, you will be more confident of being promoted to the ninth level of Qi training within ten years."

Zhou Yang knew the truth, but when he thought that he would be separated from his parents not long after reuniting, Zhou Yang still felt very sad.

In fact, he really wanted to tell the old patriarch that his father, Zhou Xuanzhen, should also stay with him.

But he knew better that his father, as the family's only second-tier top-grade alchemist, could only play his role by sitting in the Fangshi shop.

And if his father Zhou Xuanzhen is determined to hit the foundation-building period, in the next ten or eight years, he will definitely choose an heir from among the "Yuan" juniors to teach alchemy, just in case he fails, The alchemist of the family broke the inheritance.

"Grandson understands."

He suppressed the discomfort in his heart and responded in a low voice.

"Hey! Thank you father and son for your hard work!"

Zhou Minghan let out a long sigh, and couldn't help reaching out and patting Zhou Yang's shoulder lightly, signaling that he understood everything.

If he had a choice, Zhou Minghan would not want to do it, but the predicament the Zhou family is facing now forces him to do so.

If a family wants to develop and grow, someone will always have to make sacrifices.

As a family monk, one cannot enjoy the benefits of the family without doing things for nothing. The more benefits one enjoys, the more one will naturally pay more than others.

Zhou Qian was like this back then, Zhou Xuanyu was like this, how can Zhou Xuanhao and Zhou Yang father and son be an exception now?
