Cultivation Begins From The Desert

Time flies, and ten years have passed in an instant.

In the past ten years, Zhou Yang spent the rest of the time in retreat in the Extreme Yang Fire Pool, except for occasional breaks, talking with Xiao Ying, his Taoist companion, and doing double cultivation.

And in ten years of ascetic cultivation, his cultivation base has also been successfully promoted to the third floor of Nascent Soul.

After he was promoted to the third floor of Nascent Soul, less than 30% of the fire attribute aura in the Extreme Yang Fire Pool was consumed, which was very different from what he had expected in advance.

So with the idea of ​​a rare opportunity, he continued to practice here for fifteen years, until the fire attribute aura in the extreme sun fire pool was less than 10%, and then it stopped.

At this time, after his twenty-five years of absorption and refining, the originally hundreds of feet in diameter of the extremely yang fire pool has shrunk to less than twenty feet, and it will collapse completely in just one step.

Zhou Yang stopped at this time, also because he felt that the formation of this extreme Yang fire pool was not easy. It would be a pity if it collapsed and dissipated because of his excessive demands.

And with his current cultivation, even if he absorbs and refines the last remaining 10% or less of the fire attribute aura, it will only add another 20 to 30 years of cultivation.

"The most important thing is that more than 30 years have passed, and the [Millennium Dharma Conference] of the Liuyunzhou Immortal Cultivation World should be held soon. If you can't rush back before the conference, the loss will not necessarily be more than these two or three. Ten years of cultivation is less!"

By the side of the extreme sun fire pool, Zhou Yang stood up after his merits, looking at the southern sky with deep eyes, but he was already ready to return to the Floating Cloud Continent Cultivation Realm.

After absorbing almost the entire fire-attribute aura contained in the Jiyang Fire Pool, his current cultivation is not far from being promoted to the middle stage of Nascent Soul. After returning, he only needs to retreat for another 20 to 30 years to refine some of the essence he has accumulated in his hands. Advanced training for elixir and elixir, promotion to the middle stage of Nascent Soul can be said to be a sure thing.

But how could he just be content with this!

The [Millennium Dharma Meeting] is only held once every thousand years. At that time, dozens or hundreds of monks from the Nascent Soul stage will gather together to exchange what they need, which naturally includes all kinds of spiritual things that can be diligently cultivated.

Zhou Yang now has all kinds of sixth-order magic tools and spiritual objects that he can't use, but there are quite a few pieces. Spiritual creatures of diligent cultivation.

"After so many years, it's time to go back!"

This is bound to be a long journey.

From the depths of the Arctic Icefield, which is thousands of miles away from the Beitingzhou Immortal Cultivation Realm, traverse the entire Beitingzhou Immortal Cultivation Realm and the boundless snowfield, and finally arrive at the Liuyunzhou Immortal Cultivation Realm.

Such a long distance, even the straight-line distance is more than 20 million miles!

And even for a third-level Nascent Soul cultivator like Zhou Yang, even if he himself and the demon servant Bi'er and the avatar outside the body alternated to fly and hurry on the road without sleep, it took a full two and a half years before and after!

Naturally, this journey cannot be completely peaceful. Whether it is the beasts on the Arctic Icefield and the Boundless Snowfield, or the "Frozen Yi People" who have strong territorial awareness, they will not be wary of those who pass across their own territory. Zhou Yang turned a blind eye.

In the past two and a half years, Zhou Yang has been attacked by the same rank powerhouses more than a dozen times. At the most dangerous time, five "Frozen Yiren" sixth-rank powerhouses were besieging and killing him at the same time. The strength of the leader has even reached the level of a late Nascent Soul monk.

However, those "Fingyi people" obviously seriously underestimated his strength, and they had no idea how terrifying the real strength of this early human Nascent Soul cultivator they besieged and killed.

In the last siege, Zhou Yang played all his cards. Not only did he release the avatar, the demon servant Bi'er, and the sixth-order puppet to participate in the battle, but he also kept the one who had been thrown into the [Dong Xuan Zhu] to recuperate. The witch Huan Qianqian was also released to participate in the battle.

In a five-on-five situation, facing Zhou Yang holding the [Vermilion Bird Fan], the "Fingyi People" who surrounded and killed him soon tasted the bitter fruit.

After the final battle, the leader of the "Fingyi People" whose cultivation was comparable to the late Yuan Ying monks was severely injured by Zhou Yang's [Vermilion Bird Fan], and the remaining four "Fingyi People" also suffered one death and two injuries. The price, embarrassed fled the battlefield.

After that battle, Zhou Yang had never encountered an existence of the same rank on his way, until he successfully arrived at the Floating Cloud Continent Cultivation Realm.

"Finally back!"

Over a mountain full of verdant green plants, Zhou Yang, who had returned from a long trip, couldn't help showing a smile on his slightly tired face, looking at the verdant mountains below.

After staying in a place like the Arctic Ice Plain for a long time, the scenery in front of him that can be seen everywhere in the Immortal Cultivation World of Liuyun Continent has become a rare beauty in his eyes.

It's not that Zhou Yang has never seen a desolate place. Many places in the boundless sand sea are also extremely desolate, and there is only yellow sand that can't be seen.

But even in the sand sea, some desert plants with tenacious vitality can still be seen, and there are still animals such as sand scorpions and sand sparrows.

But in the depths of the Arctic Icefield, in addition to ice and snow, not to mention ordinary plants, even some cold-resistant spiritual woods, it is difficult to grow in that kind of place, let alone ordinary animals.

"Well, first hide your identity and find a nearby immortal city to contact Senior Qingyang to find out about the situation, and then decide where to go."

The light in his eyes flickered, Zhou Yang waved his sleeves and sacrificed the fifth-order magic weapon [Illusory Orb] that he had not used for a long time, transformed into a red-haired middle-aged man with a mid-level Jindan cultivation base, and set off for the nearest immortal city.

A few days later, in an immortal city called "Red Jade Immortal City", Zhou Yang found a branch of the intelligence agency of Xuanyang Immortal Sect, and contacted Qingyang Zhenren through the communication array arranged here.

In this way, after a half-day of communication with Qingyang Zhenren through the communication array, Zhou Yang left the "Red Jade Immortal City" with a gloomy expression.

The situation was really bad for him.

Now it is basically certain that Yulong Xingyu has come to Liuyunzhou Immortal Cultivation Realm, and he is not sure where to squat and wait for Zhou Yang to appear.

The reason why he made this decision is that in the past few decades, several monks of unknown origin pretended to be Zhou family monks and Xuanyang Xianzong disciples and tried to approach his son Zhou Guangcheng, intending to kidnap him and bring him out of Xuanyang Xianzong. .

These people are all at the Jindan stage, and they have never appeared in the Floating Cloud Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm before, apparently from other Immortal Cultivation Realms.

And it's not only Zhou Guangcheng who has taken action, but the Zhou family has also disappeared and lost many cultivators over the years, including Zhou Shengyu and other three Zifu period cultivators!

What worries Zhou Yang the most is that there are also monks from the Zhou family in the boundless sand sea cultivating world who disappeared inexplicably on their own spiritual mountain, and even their bodies could not be found.

This shows that the Yulong family has thoroughly figured out the origin of the Zhou family, not only focusing on the Zhou family on the side of the Floating Cloud Continent of Immortal Cultivation.

Although after he formed the Nascent Soul, he was no longer afraid of being known about the origin of the Zhou family, but now that the enemy has really found the old nest of the Zhou family, Zhou Yang couldn't help but worry.

He knew in his heart that as he did not show up for a long time, Yulong Xingyu's patience would get worse and worse, and eventually he would put down all scruples and take action against the entire Zhou family, using the lives of thousands of Zhou family cultivators as bargaining chips to force him come out.

If he really gets to that point, even if he can survive this catastrophe, the Zhou family will be severely damaged, even...

"It seems that this matter can't be delayed any longer. Once the [Millennium Dharma Conference] is over, let's start to solve this matter, even if it pays more!"

Zhou Yang pursed his lips, and a cold and cold light flashed in his eyes.

The Yulong Xingyu of the ninth-level Yuan Ying cultivation base is very strong, but it is not impossible to defeat and kill.

As long as someone can directly contain and block the seventh-order immortal weapon in his hand, and there are several late Nascent Soul cultivators with similar strength to attack him, it is not without hope that he will be killed.

Just besieging and killing such a ninth-level "half-step true immortal" of Nascent Soul who is in charge of a seventh-order immortal artifact, the people involved in the besieging will also take a lot of risks. Zhou Yang wants to find such a risk-taking expert, and pays The price will hurt even him for a long time.

But even so, he decided to do it.

Compared with the things outside his body, he values ​​the lives of his relatives and clansmen more. For him, if the treasures are gone, they can be found again, but if the lives are gone, they cannot be saved.

"It's too scary. The Zhou family didn't tell them about my return. Now that the [Millennium Dharma Conference] will be held in more than a year, I still want to find another identity for myself that can participate in the Dharma conference. , wait until the end of the dharma before taking action!"

Zhou Yang made up his mind, and immediately turned to Floating Cloud Immortal City, preparing to participate in the upcoming [Millennium Dharma Conference].

It didn't take long for him to hid his identity and rushed to Floating Cloud Immortal City, and then secretly contacted Xu Tianlin, a local snake, and informed the other party of his intention to hide his identity to attend the Fa conference.

The two sides have a friendship that fought side by side in Beitingzhou Xiu Xianjie. Zhou Yang saved his life indirectly in the Demon Realm. Xu Tianlin would naturally not refuse Zhou Yang's small request.

He quickly used the organizer's authority to re-issue an invitation to Zhou Yang. On this invitation, Zhou Yang had become Lu Tianyang, a third-floor cultivator of Nascent Soul from the Xiuxian Realm in the far west.

Since the communication between the immortal world in the extreme west and the outside world is basically cut off, Zhou Yang does not have to worry that this disguised identity will be seen through.

What's more, in order to help him hide his aura and identity in the dharma meeting, Xu Tianlin also helped him borrow a sixth-order mid-grade magic weapon [Mitian Banner].

The [Missionary Banner] is the famous magic weapon of a monk in the Nascent Soul stage in the [Liuyun Merchant Alliance]. With this magic weapon to help cover up, even a monk in the "half-step true immortal" realm of the ninth layer of the Nascent Soul, does not use it. With some special pupil skills, it is difficult to see Zhou Yang's true face clearly.

On the occasion of [Millennium Dharma Meeting], even a ninth-level "half-step true immortal" cultivator of Nascent Soul is unlikely to use such magical powers in person to identify other people's identities one by one.

With Xu Tianlin helping to cover, Zhou Yang temporarily stayed in Floating Cloud Immortal City.

At this time, due to the approaching of the [Millennium Dharma Assembly], many Nascent Soul cultivators who have come from afar have rushed to live in Floating Cloud Immortal City first. At the suggestion of Xu Tianlin, Zhou Yang took the initiative to visit some of the same level as Lu Tianyang. Cultivator, let people know that there is a person like himself to participate in this grand event.

A year passed quickly, and the [Millennium Dharma Conference], which was held once in a thousand years, was finally held in anticipation of many people.

Since it is a dharma meeting, it is not necessary for the monks in the Yuanying period to close their doors to communicate, but to hold it in public.

In response to the convening of this dharma meeting, Liuyun Xiancheng even released a part of the mountainside area of ​​Floating Cloud Immortal Mountain, and placed the meeting place on an open area above the mountainside.

This open area is not too crowded even if it accommodates tens of thousands of monks, and looking down from here, many magnificent scenery of Liuyun Xianshan and the immortal city below can be seen, and the scenery is infinitely beautiful.

Obviously, it is not without requirements that the monks who can come here to listen to the monks in the Nascent Soul stage talk about the Dharma and the Tao.

This requirement is not difficult, nor is it easy.

There are three ways to enter the hall to listen to the sermon. The first is that the Jindan stage cultivation base can enter the venue free of charge, the second is that the Yuanying stage monks who attend the dharma meeting can bring 30 juniors with them, and the third is to buy admission. Tickets, each ticket is priced at 10,000 low-grade spirit stones, and can be transferred.

Not to mention the first two methods, only the third method, because there are a total of 3,000 admission tickets issued, and directly earned more than 30 million low-grade spirit stones for [Liuyun Merchant Alliance]!

There is no need to worry that no one buys the admission ticket. Although 10,000 low-grade spirit stones are quite a lot, but in the vast Liuyunzhou Immortal Cultivation Realm, the number of cultivators in the Zifu period adds up to not 10,000, but also 8,000.

For the vast majority of monks in the Zifu period, taking out 10,000 low-grade spirit stones and listening to dozens or hundreds of monks in the Nascent Soul period is a good thing that is hard to find even with a lantern.

Even some wealthy foundation-building cultivators will grit their teeth and take out such a sum of spirit stones to participate in this thousand-year-old event. Even if they don’t get anything in the end, it will be a great bragging capital in the future. Always

Thanks to the early publicity of the [Floating Cloud Business Alliance], as long as they are not the kind of monks in the Floating Cloud Continent who are completely isolated from the outside world, they all know that the [Millennium Dharma Assembly] is held in Floating Cloud Immortal City this time.

Therefore, 3,000 admission tickets will only be in short supply in the end, and there will be no possibility of empty tickets.

"Tiannanzhou Immortal Cultivation Realm Wang He is here!"

"The real person Bai Lan from the overseas immortal world has arrived!"

"Lu Tianyang and Lu Zhenren from the Xiuxian realm in the extreme west have arrived!"

...

In the high voice of the welcoming cultivator, Zhou Yang, who goes by the pseudonym Lu Tianyang, came along with two early Nascent Soul monks, a man and a woman, and landed on the dharma platform specially prepared for these Nascent Soul monks at the ceremony site.

The two people who came with him were all cultivators he had known each other in the past year. The three came from various immortal worlds in the south and the north. They had never heard of each other's names before, but they communicated with each other a lot. Talking, you will be familiar with it.

Coming together today is also an appointment long ago.

"Hehe~www.wuxiamtl.com~ It's really an honor for the alliance that the three daoists have come from thousands of miles away to participate in this [Millennium Dharma Assembly]. Xu, on behalf of the alliance, would like to thank the three in advance. ."

On the podium, Xu Tianlin, who represented the organizer, and the other three landed, and he took the initiative to bow to the three of them with smiles and greeted them.

His eyes didn't stay on Zhou Yang for more than half a minute, it was completely businesslike.

"Fellow Daoist Xu is very polite. It is my honor and opportunity to be able to participate in this [Millennium Dharma Assembly] and to exchange Dao cultivation with fellow practitioners. It is my honor and opportunity to thank your alliance for giving me such an opportunity."

Wang He, the eldest of the three, returned a salute to Xu Tianlin on behalf of the three with a smile on his face, and what he said was extremely beautiful.

After a few words of courtesy, Xu Tianlin asked the three of them to sit down first.

At this time, there were not many Yuan Ying monks arriving on the Dharma platform, only less than thirty, most of them were local monks from the Liuyunzhou Immortal Cultivation Realm.

However, the number of cultivators who came to listen to the sermon below the Dharma platform was as many as six or seven thousand, of which there were hundreds of cultivators at the Jindan stage!
