Chapter 18

There are not so many vulgar rites for immortal practitioners. Even if Zhou Qian, the great elder of an immortal family like the Zhou family, died, he just called all the family friars on the oasis of Yuquan lake to the ancestral temple to keep their spirits for three days. Then the old patriarch Zhou Minghan personally cremated the old Zhou Qian's body with a real fire to build a foundation, and the ashes were buried in the family cemetery.

Cremate the dead body of the family friar, which is the helplessness of the little Xiuxian family.

Because the little Xiuxian family doesn't have enough strength to protect the family cemetery, it can't stop those demons who have practiced the corpse refining magic of the devil road from stealing the corpses of their ancestors and refining them into zombies.

Once the corpses of the family ancestors are made into zombies by magic cultivation, it is not only a great desecration of the corpses of the ancestors, but also the lives of the family friars and mortals under the rule of the family.

This is because newly refined zombies need a lot of blood food for their growth, and it is better to feed zombies with people of the same blood origin as zombies.

Therefore, a small Xiuxian family like the Zhou family will cremate their bodies and bury them if someone in the family dies, so as not to be used by demons.

Only when a large family, like the Huangsha gate, which has the ancestors of the golden elixir and even the great friars in the yuan and infant period, dies, will the body be buried in the cemetery and specially cared for by the Dharma array and special personnel.

After handling the affairs of the eldest elder Zhou Qian, Zhou Yang was summoned by the old patriarch Zhou Minghan to enter the cave on the top of the mountain to ask questions alone.

"You also know the reason why your grandfather died. The family is about to dispatch people to eliminate the monsters on the red flame iron vein. You have just broken through the seventh floor of Qi training, which is also the foundation building hope of our Zhou family in the future. I can decide to let you not participate in this matter. What do you think?"

"Please don't do that!"

As soon as Zhou Yang's face changed, he bowed deeply to the old clan leader, then raised his head and said loudly, "the ChiYan iron ore vein was discovered by his grandson, and he will give his grandson a dividend in the future. If his grandson doesn't participate in the war, how can he convince other clansmen? How to embody the fairness and justice of family rules? "

"Although my grandson is not talented, he is willing to make a modest contribution to the opening up and expansion of the Zhou family with what he has learned all his life!"

At last, Zhou Yang couldn't help taking out a [armor breaking dagger] magic weapon from his waist and holding it in his hand, as if to prove his determination.

Seeing his impassioned appearance, the old patriarch Zhou Minghan felt relieved and funny.

"Well, well, I know your determination. Put away the magic tools first. You'll be one head at that time!"

The old man smiled and waved his hand. He really appreciated Zhou Yang's courage to use a knife in front of him.

It is a great courage for a friar in the Qi training period to dare to use his knife in front of a friar in the foundation building period, no matter what the reason is.

And this also proved Zhou Yang's loyalty to the Zhou family. If he didn't really agree with the family, how could he say such impassioned words just now? Why can't you help drawing a knife in front of the head of the family during the foundation period?

It doesn't hurt in vain, boy!

The old man sighed with relief, and his face softened a lot. His eyes to Zhou Yang were as full of love as his own grandson.

"Since Xiao Jiu has this determination, I'll tell you again. In about ten years, not more than 15 years at most, the ancestors of the Chen family in jinshafang city will organize people to plan the refining of Jidan. Our Zhou family and the Chen family are in an alliance. At that time, as long as a monk in the foundation period participates in this matter, he can get the bidding right of Jidan."

"Once the family gets the building foundation pill in the auction, it will be taken immediately, so Xiao Jiu, you must strive to practice to the ninth floor of Qi in the next ten years, otherwise this opportunity will be missed in vain!"

The old patriarch looked at Zhou Yang lovingly and spoke slowly in a dignified tone, which was enough to shock the friars of the Zhou family.

After listening to the old patriarch's words, Zhou Yang's pupils suddenly contracted and his breathing became heavy in an instant.

That's "building Jidan"!

Over the years of cultivation, Zhou Yang has never been particularly interested in a spiritual object, but the spiritual object "building a foundation pill" is the only thing he cares about and wants to get.

In terms of grade, "building foundation pill" is only a third-order lower level elixir, but its attraction to the majority of friars in the Qi training period is unmatched by the fifth level elixir.

It is well known that "building Jidan" is rare.

Refining a furnace of "foundation pills" requires not only a rare fourth-order elixir [Ningyuan fruit] or a fourth-order monster elixir, but also 36 extremely rare third-order elixirs as auxiliary drugs. The combined value of these elixirs is greater than that of refining a furnace of fourth-order elixirs.

Even the Huangsha sect, which has been handed down for thousands of years and has the ancestral seat of the golden elixir, can refine a furnace of "building foundation elixir" every ten years. The number of pills produced each time is only five to seven.

Such a small number means that there are not enough people in the Huangsha sect, let alone the small Xiuxian family attached to the Huangsha sect like the Zhou family.

Therefore, if a small Xiuxian family like the Zhou family wants to obtain zhujidan, they can either exchange a main medicine for refining zhujidan, or cooperate with other Xiuxian families to refine pills.

Zhou Yang has also heard of the Chen family in the mouth of the old clan leader Zhou Minghan since childhood. The Chen family is an immortal family that has been inherited for more than 700 years. The ancestors of the contemporary Chen family are not only a master in the later period of the purple mansion, but also a fourth-order middle-class alchemist.

As a non sect born monk, even if the ancestors of the Chen family were Zifu period masters, it was impossible to obtain the "building foundation pill" from the Huangsha gate for the family's descendants to take.

Therefore, after the ancestors of the Chen family advanced to the purple mansion, a "foundation building meeting" will be organized every thirty or fifty years. At that time, the invited Xiuxian family or scattered Xiuji experts, as long as they are willing to send people to form a team with the ancestors of the Chen family to hunt and kill the fourth order monsters in the boundless sand sea and obtain the fourth order demon pill, they can be refined into a "foundation building pill", Obtain the bidding and purchase right of "zhujidan".

This is how the Zhou family bought the "building foundation Dan" more than 60 years ago.

At that time, in order to buy the "foundation building pill", he not only emptied the savings of the Zhou family, but also made the second foundation building friar of the Zhou family after the ancestor of Zhou Yuquan. The ancestor of "Hua" generation Zhou Jian was seriously injured, his life yuan was greatly reduced, and his life was lost when he was less than 200 years old.

The ancestor of Zhou Jian is the grandfather of Zhou Qian, the great elder of the Zhou family who died a few days ago.

Now from the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, he learned that the Zhou family was ready to participate in the "foundation building conference". Zhou Yang was excited, but he couldn't help showing a look of anxiety.

He was not worried that he had only more than ten years to prepare, but worried about the old patriarch Zhou Minghan's participation in the "foundation building conference".

Although the old clan leader Zhou Minghan is already a monk in the later stage of building the foundation on the seventh floor and a third-order top-grade tool refiner, his strength is not enough in the face of a fourth-order monster whose strength is equivalent to that of the friars of the purple mansion period. As long as the fourth-order monster hits with all his strength, the old clan leader can fall.

As the only existing foundation building friar of the Zhou family, once the old patriarch Zhou Minghan is seriously injured or falls, it will be great bad news for the whole Zhou family, which is likely to lead to the demise of the Zhou family.

At that time, Zhou Yang will succeed in building the foundation Dan, and it will be difficult to feel at ease all his life.

Therefore, he thought again and again, and finally couldn't help but ask, "great grandfather and grandson once heard that across the sand sea of 40000 miles in the East and over the duanyun mountains high into the clouds, we can reach the immortal cultivation world of Liuyun island. There are rich immortal cultivation resources. Even the foundation Dan can be bought in the square market with spirit stones. Why don't we go there to buy the foundation Dan, Do you want a friar like you to take risks to hunt and kill the fourth order monster? "

About the immortal cultivation world in liuyunzhou, Zhou Yang accidentally learned from the notes of a tool refiner when he read the ancient books on tool refining in recent years.

Later, he asked the old man Zhou Quan, but even the old man Zhou Quan, who had lived for more than 100 years, only knew the place name of the Xiuxian community on Liuyun island. He didn't know much about the specific situation.

Originally, when he came home this time, he also wanted to ask the old patriarch Zhou Minghan about it. Unfortunately, he closed his door after he came back, but he forgot about it for the time being. Now he remembered it again after listening to the old patriarch talking about "building Jidan".

The situation was just as he expected. As a friar and head of the clan during the foundation period, the old patriarch Zhou Minghan knew a lot about the immortal world in Liuyun island.

"It's rare, Xiao Jiu. You also know the immortal cultivation world of liuyunzhou. Unfortunately, you only know the prosperity of the immortal cultivation world of liuyunzhou, but you don't know how many dangerous places we have to pass from us to the immortal cultivation world of liuyunzhou!"

"Not to mention how many powerful monsters and road robbing sand bandits are hidden in the 40000 mile sand sea, all kinds of third-order and fourth-order monsters are also common in the duanyun mountain. It is also rumored that there are six-order monsters living in seclusion in the depths of the mountain, which is comparable to the great friars in the yuan infant period!"

"It's a gamble to cross the broken cloud mountain without Zifu's cultivation. It's a gamble whether you will be found by the monster and become the ration of the monster!"

"Finally, even if you are lucky enough to cross the broken cloud mountains, arrive at the immortal world of Liuyun island and buy the foundation building pill, do you think a foreign foundation building friar can return to the Far West safely with this treasure?"

Zhou Yang was speechless.

Every man is innocent and bears his sin!

The old clan leader was right. The spirit of "building a foundation Dan" is so precious that even if the friar took it with him during the foundation building period, it would easily lead to death.

If a small family like the Zhou family gets this treasure, they usually let the nine layer friars practicing Qi take it immediately. Otherwise, if the news is known to outsiders, it may lead to the disaster of killing the family.

That's why the old patriarch told him earlier that he must practice to the ninth floor of Qi before the "foundation building meeting" more than ten years later, otherwise the family will get the "foundation building pill" at that time, and he must not have his share.

"My grandson understands. Please rest assured that my grandson will practice Qi on the ninth floor before the foundation building meeting, and will not let you and your family pay in vain!"

He pursed his lips, looked firmly at the old clan leader and made a military order.
