Chapter 631: Killing Qinglian Temple [Subscribe]

The Jiaolong and the Fire Phoenix are both top-level demon beast bloodlines.

Any monster that possesses the blood of these two monsters will be stronger and have greater potential than ordinary monsters of the same level.

Moreover, many special elixirs and secret methods in the world of immortal cultivation, as well as magical instruments and talismans, require the blood of these two kinds of monsters as a medium.

The Zhou family's dragon blood monster is now widely known. Every year, individual cultivators or immortal forces come to purchase dragon blood.

Zhou Chun also made deals with several Jindan-stage cultivators who came to him to purchase the dragon's spiritual blood.

It can be said that now, just by extracting blood from various low, medium and high-level dragon-blood monsters and selling it, the Zhou family can earn 10,000 to 20,000 spirit coins every year.

And this income is very stable, basically it will only go up and never go down.

As the Fire Phoenix bloodline is as famous as the Flood Dragon bloodline but even rarer, its value will only be higher.

In fact, after seeing Zhou Chun's Flame Prison Fire Phoenix, more than one Jindan stage cultivator came to the Yanyang Sect, wanting to exchange the Fire Phoenix Feather with him, and the conditions they offered were very generous.

But Zhou Chun naturally rejected such things sternly and ignored them completely.

At the beginning, he was unwilling to compromise even with Master Yan Cang, the great weapon-refining master, let alone these Jindan-stage cultivators.

As for the Yuanying stage master of Yanyang Sect, unless he was suppressing him intentionally, he would definitely not embarrass a junior like him.

In short, being able to give those Yan Yang Sect monks a few drops of Fire Phoenix blood would already be considered as a way of saving the reputation of the Yan Yang Sect.

Under such circumstances, the Zhou family has now cultivated a mid-level demon beast with the bloodline of the Fire Phoenix, which is naturally of great significance.

Not to mention whether these monsters have the hope of condensing the true feathers of the Fire Phoenix in the future and transforming into real Fire Phoenix.

Just to say that after they become phoenix-blood monsters, they can bring industrial expansion to the Zhou family, which is a treasure with infinite potential.

With the precedent of the five-colored pheasant, the Zhou family can continue to develop along this line of thought in the future and continue to explore and cultivate more varieties of phoenix-blood monsters.

Anyway, the Fire Phoenix's Essence and Blood, if only a small amount is extracted, will not affect the growth of the Hell Fire Phoenix too much. It can be replenished by eating a few more thousand-year-old elixirs.

And when the phoenix-blood monsters such as the five-colored pheasants multiply into groups, the Zhou family will be able to earn a large amount of spiritual coins just by selling their feathers and spiritual blood.

Therefore, Zhou Chun was very happy after hearing the news. He even made an exception and personally met with the younger Qi training cultivator named Zhou Gaoping, and bestowed upon him a foundation-building pill, which was the most precious for Qi training cultivators.

"I would like to thank the clan leader for his reward. I will never forget your kindness!"

Zhou Gaoping, who got the Foundation Establishment Pill, held the pill bottle in trembling hands, knelt on the ground with an extremely excited expression, and kowtowed to Zhou Chun repeatedly to express his gratitude.

He only has low-grade spiritual roots, and his parents are ordinary mortals. Now he is over sixty years old, but he has only cultivated to the twelfth level of the Qi training stage. This is all thanks to the Zhou family's taking over the Qinglian Mountains, allowing him to enjoy the training environment that only the foundation-building cultivators of the Qinglian Temple could enjoy.

Given his situation, it would have been impossible for him to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill even in the Zhou family.

Now that he has made great contributions, he has been received by the clan leader Zhou Chun, who has personally bestowed upon him the Foundation Establishment Pill, giving him a chance to ascend to heaven. How can he not be extremely excited and grateful?

"Stand up, this is the reward you deserve. The family will never mistreat any meritorious person. No matter what his background is, as long as he can make great contributions to the family, he deserves a reward!"

Zhou Chun waved his hand, said some words of encouragement, and asked people to leave.

The reason why he summoned the other party this time and bestowed the Foundation Establishment Pill upon him was just to make a gesture to the other young members of the tribe and reiterate the policies and clan rules that he had set when he was in power.

Any member of the Zhou family who can make great contributions to the family, regardless of their background or qualifications, will receive special rewards from the family.

Whether it is a foundation-building pill or a spiritual object that assists in opening up the Purple Mansion, the family will reward you generously.

As long as there is such an upward channel, even if some middle and senior levels within the Zhou family abuse their power for personal gain, those members of the family who have no background and poor spiritual roots will not completely lose the opportunity to seek the Tao.

this point is very important!
Speaking of which, with the Zhou family occupying the Qinglian Mountains and carrying out large-scale development everywhere, many members of the family have gained personal opportunities in recent years.

After all, the Qinglian Mountains are a blessed mountain that has been managed by the Qinglian Temple for a long time. Even though it has been ravaged by hundreds of thousands of monsters before, there are still many treasures left that have not been destroyed.

Moreover, after the gate of Qinglian Temple was breached, many disciples of Qinglian Temple died in the mountain while fleeing, and some of their magic weapons and storage bags were not destroyed by the monsters.

After the Zhou family took over this place, many clansmen were lucky enough to discover these things while patrolling and exploring in the mountains, and made a fortune.

The family would not ask these tribesmen to hand over what they had gained through their own chance, and would tacitly acknowledge that it belonged to them.

Even if those hired cultivators gained something in the Qinglian Mountains, the Zhou family would not rob them.

Even Zhou Mingde didn't have that idea.

As decision-makers of the Zhou family, he and Zhou Chun both knew that compared to those petty profits, a good reputation was more important to the Zhou family.

Stealing the spoils of those independent cultivators would not benefit the Zhou family at all, but would bring harm to the entire independent cultivator group.

The family leaders would never do such a thing as picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons, and would also forbid their family members from doing so.

What really deserves Zhou Chun's attention is the secret library of Qinglian Temple and the inheritance taken away by Qingweizi and others.

For a sect like Qinglian Temple that once produced a cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, there might be objects connected to infant spirits in the secret library!
After all, if such a sect really wants to use the secret treasury and revive, it must have a Nascent Soul cultivator in charge.

Therefore, it is possible to store spiritual objects for forming infants in the secret library for future generations to use.

Judging from the time, the protection period of Qinglian Temple is about to end, and Zhou Chun has already started preparing for this matter in secret.

Three years later, Gongsun Yuanji and Gongsun Yuanzhi, brother and sister, suddenly came together to pay a visit to Zhou Chun and bid him farewell.

The brother and sister have been working for the Zhou family to pay off their debts for more than ten years. During this period, because they wanted Zhou Chun to give them a thousand-year-old elixir to replenish their life energy, their work schedule had to be delayed for a few years.

Now, I have finally paid off the corresponding debts and can be free.

They obviously had no intention of staying in the Zhou family any longer, and now all the places where formations should be set up had already been set up, so there was no place for them to play a big role.

So at this time the two of them came over to say goodbye to Zhou Chun.

"Since you two have finally decided to leave, I will not say anything more to persuade you to stay. I wish you two safe journey."

Inside the cave, Zhou Chun looked at the Gongsun brothers and sisters in front of him and agreed to their request without trying to persuade them to stay.

"Senior is so magnanimous, and I, your younger brothers and sisters, are grateful. I wish you a smooth journey and a long life as an immortal!"

Gongsun Yuanji's expression relaxed and he quickly expressed his gratitude, then left with his sister Gongsun Yuanzhi.

About three days after the two left, Zhou Xinyan suddenly came to pay a visit to Zhou Chun.

After seeing Zhou Chun, he took out a silver-white box and held it in his hands. He held it in both hands and said to Zhou Chun respectfully: "Patriarch, please understand. Today, a Qi training period member of the clan came to see me with this item. He said that Daoist Gongsun and his siblings specifically asked him to pass it on. I dare not act on my own, so I came to see you."

"Oh, is there anything else?"

Zhou Chun raised his eyebrows, and immediately raised his hand and took the silver-white box into his hand.

This silver-white box was obviously subject to some kind of restriction and could not be opened by ordinary cultivators.

But to him, it's not worth mentioning at all.

He just raised his hand and touched the box. A golden light flashed, and the restriction on the box was removed.

But when he opened the box, he saw a thick book inside with four big characters "Detailed Explanation of the Art of Formations" written on the cover.

Zhou Chun took out the book, flipped through it casually, and then showed a look of surprise.

This book, "Detailed Explanation of the Art of Formation", was actually a teaching book for formation masters written by Gongsun Yuanzhi specifically based on the situation of the Zhou family.

This book does not record the Gongsun family's secret formations, but uses some formations widely circulated in the world of immortal cultivation as models, and teaches formation master apprentices step by step how to set up and resolve formations, how to learn a new formation more effectively, and how to construct a complete formation system!

A lot of the knowledge here should be what the formation masters of the Gongsun family have learned since childhood, and it is not a secret in their family.

However, for a family like the Zhou family, which is not good at formations, it is a very precious thing.

In the future, no matter whether you are a new formation apprentice or a formation master like Zhang Liang, through this book "Detailed Explanation of the Way of Formation", you can avoid many detours in the research of formation.

From this, it can be seen that Gongsun Yuanzhi also truly investigated the situation of the Zhou family's formation masters before choosing to leave such a teaching book to help the Zhou family.

"Senior Zhou is a man of high moral integrity and magnanimity. Brother and sister Yuan Zhi admire and appreciate him very much. However, I am a junior whose inheritance of formations is the foundation of the Gongsun family. I dare not do anything that goes against the ancestral teachings and pass it on to outsiders. I only present this book to you, hoping that it will be of some benefit to the Zhou family's inheritance of formations!"

Zhou Chun turned to the end of the book and saw the comments left by Gongsun Yuanzhi.

Seeing this, he could not help but nod his head and whispered to himself, "She is really thoughtful. It seems that those thousand-year-old elixirs were not given in vain!"

Then he threw the book in his hand to Zhou Xinyan who was still waiting and said, "Have someone make a few copies of this book and then give it to Zhang Liang."

"Yes, junior, I obey."

Zhou Xinyan responded and left with the book "Detailed Explanation of Formations".

Time passed, and soon another three years had passed. On this day, inside Zhou Chun's cave, under his watchful eyes, four small insects that looked like six-winged ice silkworms each spun silk into cocoons, sealed themselves inside the cocoons, and began their own transformation.

Up to this point, he had not discovered any powerful abilities of the four little bugs.

After waiting for another year with anticipation, Zhou Chun finally saw four little insects break out of their cocoons.

After emerging from their cocoons, the four little insects were smaller than before. I wonder if it was because they had not eaten for a long time.

Apart from their improved stealth capabilities, they have not undergone any changes and have not grown wings.

This made Zhou Chun quite disappointed.

He then observed for another six months and found that the four insects did not show any abnormal abilities except that they grew larger with sufficient food supply.

Such behavior made him completely disappointed. He no longer paid too much attention to them, but just threw some food to them every once in a while.

After more than ten years of construction and operation, the Zhou family has finally taken complete control of the Qinglian Mountains, a blessed land, and all the sacred places in the mountains have been put into development.

Of course, due to the shortage of manpower, many places are just randomly arranged with formations for protection, and people are arranged to patrol regularly, so the actual development level is not high.

Despite this, because of the setting up of many formations and the hiring of many independent cultivators, the Zhou family's savings were almost emptied.

Family executives such as Zhou Chun and Zhou Mingde also paid out of their own pockets to subsidize a lot of spirit coins.

Only at this time did the Zhou family have some energy to take care of areas outside the Qinglian Mountains.

For example, other immortal cultivation families or independent cultivator bases in Lanzhou and Lianzhou.

In the future, these forces will be directly controlled and led by the Zhou family, and will nominally become vassals of the Zhou family.

At the same time, the rights to open markets in the two places will also belong to the Zhou family.

Some ownerless spiritual lands are also under the jurisdiction and distribution of the Zhou family.

Because the entire central and southern parts of Jingguo were in the reconstruction period, neither the Zhou family nor those families had the energy to pay attention to these things.

But now, more than ten years have passed, each family has rebuilt their mountain gate and started a recovery period, so these things have to be brought to the table and dealt with.

In particular, the market town where cultivators communicate and trade with each other is in urgent need of reconstruction.

In view of this, Zhou Chun arranged for people to send invitations to various forces in the two states in the name of the Zhou family, inviting the leaders of each force to meet in the Qinglian Mountains to discuss relevant matters.

"Patriarch, please be advised. There are no Jindan families in the two states now. There are four major immortal cultivation families with purple mansion cultivators, and sixteen immortal cultivation families with foundation-building cultivators. The remaining small families that have established mountain gates total fifty-two."

“As for the independent cultivators’ bases, there are two independent cultivators in the Purple Mansion Stage from foreign countries who took advantage of the situation and occupied two mountain gates that originally belonged to two large immortal cultivation clans and established their own bases. The other bases established by independent cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage also total six!”

While the invitations were still being distributed, Zhou Xinyan also took the opportunity to report to Zhou Chun the intelligence that the Zhou family had collected on various forces in the country so that he could have a better idea.

After listening to Zhou Xinyan's report, Zhou Chun also showed a look of surprise.

I couldn't help but look at him and asked, "Why are there so few? Didn't the Chen family of Lanzhou also withdraw at the beginning? Don't they even want the family's ancestral land?"

Zhou Chun remembered that in the past, there were as many as six or seven great immortal cultivation clans in Lanzhou alone, not to mention Lianzhou.

Even if the previous beast tide was too fierce and those families misjudged the situation and failed to cope with it, it shouldn't have been possible for only a few families to be left.

After hearing his words, Zhou Xinyan replied with a wry smile, "The Grand Elder of the Chen family in Lanzhou unfortunately died in the beast tide, and they also lost several high-ranking members of their family. In addition, they may feel that it will be difficult for them to get along with our Zhou family in the future, so they have now moved to Tanzhou and occupied a sacred place there to rebuild the mountain gate!"

“As for the other former Purple Mansion clans, either their Purple Mansion cultivators died, or they were wiped out in the beast tide. There are also a few clans that were particularly close to Qinglian Temple, and they seem to have left with Qinglian Temple!”

This answer made Zhou Chun silent.

He was silent for a long time before he smiled faintly and said, "That's it. Since those people don't want to come back, they don't have to come back in the future!"

After all, there are more people than land in this world of immortal cultivation. As long as the sacred mountain and blessed land are there, there will always be a suitable owner to move in in the future.

Those people and forces who have no confidence in the Zhou family will regret their ignorance in the future!
However, with only a few big and small cats present, the rest of the meeting would seem boring.

After representatives from various forces arrived, Zhou Chun simply showed up, representing the Zhou family to acknowledge their sovereignty over the spiritual land they now occupied, accept their loyalty, and then announced that the Zhou family would rebuild the market town as soon as possible.

As for how to deal with these vassal forces in the future, Zhou Chun, a Jindan stage cultivator, doesn't need to worry about it.

Zhou Chun himself was a man of his words. Half a year after convening a meeting with the vassal forces, the Zhou family started construction in two places at the same time, rebuilding new markets at the original sites of Lanzhou and Lianzhou, making it convenient for the cultivators of the two places to exchange what they have through the markets.

At the same time, the former "Zhou Tong Tian Xia" trading company also resumed operations.

But this only means that the situation in the world of immortal cultivation is beginning to improve.

In the mundane world, Lanzhou and Lianzhou are still uninhabited for thousands of miles. The few mortals can only rely on the protection of immortal cultivators to survive the threats of monsters and wild beasts and expand their population.

If we want to restore the two places' immortal world and the mortal world to the situation before the beast tide, it will probably take at least two or three hundred years.

Spring goes and winter comes, and in the blink of an eye another three years have passed.

Inside Zhou Chun's cave, the four little insects underwent another metamorphosis, but there was still no significant change.

At this time, Su Yuzhen had already entered the secret retreat room and began to retreat to the middle stage of the Golden Core.

"The two hundred years have passed. It's time for you to take action, my friend Zhou."

On this day, Tianjing Zhenren, who had been living in seclusion in the Zhou family's mountain gate, suddenly whispered a reminder in Zhou Chun's ear.

Hearing this familiar voice that he hadn't heard for a long time, Zhou Chun was also slightly stunned, and then he bowed to the mountain where Tianjing Zhenren was and said: "Yes, I understand."

A few days later, without the knowledge of many Zhou family elders, Zhou Chun quietly left the Qinglian Mountains.

He first went to Tuyun Ridge, secretly took away the golden-armored mountain turtle Shitou and Mu Mei Mu Sang there, and then went straight to Le Country.

Over the years, the Zhou family has never given up collecting intelligence on the remnants of the Qinglian Temple.

It is now certain that Qing Weizi, the former abbot of Qinglian Temple, has settled down somewhere in Le Country with most of the remaining monks of Qinglian Temple, and seems to have received protection from a major sect in Le Country.

Zhou Chun guessed that Master Qingxiao must have reached some agreement with the Nascent Soul Master of the Le Country's major sect during his lifetime, or the other party owed him a favor, so he took care of the Qinglian Temple, which was like a stray dog ​​now.

However, this kind of care is certainly limited. At best, it can leave a piece of spiritual land for the remnants of Qinglian Temple to live in and protect them from persecution by local forces.

Moreover, as long as Zhou Chun acted decisively and wiped out the remnants of the Qinglian Temple before the Yuanying stage master received the news, even if the other party knew that it was him who did it, they would most likely be helpless.

You can't go to Qinglian Mountains to fight with Master Tianjing just for the destroyed Qinglian Temple.

At this time, Zhou Chun hid his identity and cultivation level all the way. After spending several days on the journey, he quietly arrived at the place where the remnants of Qinglian Temple were.

The place is called Tongmuling. It was originally a branch of the Liyang Sect of the Le Kingdom. The size and grade of the spiritual land are comparable to the Su Family Mountain Gate, and can accommodate several Jindan stage cultivators for cultivation.

The mountain protection formation set up on Tongmuling is also quite exquisite. Even though it is not as good as the forbidden formation that can resist Yuanying period cultivators, it is no worse than the [Yimu Panlong Formation] currently set up by the Zhou family.

If a late Jindan cultivator came here, faced with such a situation, I'm afraid he would find it difficult to take action.

After all, this place is not open to the public, and non-Qinglian Temple monks are not allowed to enter. Even the Qinglian Temple monks inside rarely go out.

Even if one wanted to hide his skills and sneak inside, or blow it up from the inside, there would be no chance.

But Zhou Chun is different.

He has now cultivated the second level of "Small Five Elements Breaking the Profound Light" to the great success realm. As long as he can gather the five elements spiritual objects required for the third level, he will be able to cultivate to the third level soon.

With the mysterious power of this secret technique and the special talent of Stone, the golden-armored mountain turtle, in breaking formations, it was enough to force its way into the formation.

Therefore, after secretly observing outside for a while, he deliberately waited for half a month, and finally chose to take action on a rainy night.

In the rainy night, Zhou Chun's figure suddenly appeared at the edge of the Tongmuling mountain protection formation.

Then he clasped his hands together and performed a secret technique. A ball of colorful light emerged from his hands and turned into a ray of light that broke the ban and rushed forward.

All of a sudden, under the impact of this five-colored light that could break the ban, an unobstructed passage was created in the Tongmuling mountain protection formation ahead, allowing Zhou Chun to easily penetrate into the formation without even being discovered.

It was not until he entered the deepest part of the formation and was about to break through the entire formation's defense line that the monks guarding the formation finally discovered the abnormality because the power of the forbidden light was not enough to easily break through the last invisible barrier of the formation.

"Who dares to trespass into the Qinglian Temple gate?"

As an angry roar filled with shock and anger was heard, the originally restrained power of the Tongmuling mountain protection formation immediately became violent.

However, before the person who spoke could mobilize the power of the formation to deal with the person who had trespassed, Zhou Chun had already directly activated the [Tiangang Thunder Sword] and the forbidden-breaking Mysterious Light to forcibly break through the last layer of the formation barrier and kill his way into Tongmuling.

"Where is Qingweizi? Come out and die!"

In Tongmuling, Zhou Chun flew his sword and shouted loudly, then with a wave of his hand he summoned all the five great monster beasts and pets under his seat, and began to slaughter all the monks of Qinglian Temple without mercy!
Well, after watching the game, I still had time to write 6,000 words
