Cultivation Begins From The Desert

v3 Chapter 146: 2 female contenders

The upgrade of the spiritual veins is not an overnight thing. The level of the spiritual veins in Haoyang Cave has truly been upgraded from the third-order low-grade to the third-grade middle-grade.

After the spiritual meridian was upgraded to the third-rank mid-level, the spiritual energy of the spiritual meridian in Haoyang Grotto was finally successfully channeled to a sand dune on the ground, which could not actually be called a sand dune.

Because after the water demon flooded the Haoyang Cave, the sand and dunes around the Haoyang Cave accumulated a lot of water vapor underground, and a large number of desert plants grew in a few years, and the Zhou family had already arranged for mortals Plant trees and grass everywhere on the dunes chosen as Lingshan.

So now this sand dune, which is no more than 300 meters high, has now become a lush mountain. The transformation of the sand dunes into a spiritual mountain is not only a change in appearance. After the spiritual energy is brought from the underground to the ground, it means that the Zhou family can open up a large number of spiritual fields on this new spiritual mountain in the future like they did on Yuquan Peak.

In fact, it was also because the spiritual meridians were able to obtain at least hundreds of acres of spiritual fields after they were upgraded, which prompted Zhou Yang and Zhou Minghan to finally make up their minds to upgrade the spiritual meridians.

There is no doubt about the importance of Lingtian to a cultivating family. The spiritual rice produced in the spiritual field is not only the food that the monks of the family must eat, but also can be used for sale in exchange for spiritual stones. Compared with Yuquan Peak, which is the same third-tier middle-grade spiritual vein, the total value of the annual output of Lingmi on one mu of Lingtian on Yuquan Peak is between 15 and 20 spiritual stones. Even if the costs are removed, the net income is also Can reach more than 10 spirit stones.

If one hundred acres of spiritual fields can be developed here in Haoyang Grotto, even if the output of the new spiritual fields here cannot catch up with the spiritual fields of Yuquan Peak, it will not take 60 years to make a return.

Therefore, this investment, in the long run, must be more than the investment.

The only thing Zhou Yang regrets is that the "Golden Guards Array" that originally guarded the spiritual veins of Haoyang Grotto was not able to put away all of them because he was so eager to retreat. As a result, the water demon destroyed several array flags. , is no longer available.

Such a third-order spiritual mountain is not guarded by a third-order formation, and security is a big problem. Without the protection of the third-order formation, then only the monks of the Foundation Establishment period can be stationed in order to protect the safety of Lingshan.

Originally, Zhou Yang wanted to stay here to guard Lingshan Mountain, but Zhou Minghan strongly disagreed with this, thinking that his patriarch should be stationed in the family ancestral land of Yuquan Peak, so the final task of guarding Haoyang Mountain fell. It came to Zhou Xuanyu.

Shortly after the completion of Haoyang Mountain, Zhou Xuanhao also collected all materials through his family, and successfully refined two pots of "Qingling San" elixir.

He is currently injured and cannot refine the third-order elixir, which takes a long time, but refining the second-order high-grade elixir is not a problem.

With the help of these two "Qingling San" elixir, in the next two years, Zhou Xuanchen, Zhou Xuanying, Zhou Xuanhe, Zhou Xuanjin, and Chen Ting, five cultivators in the Qi training period, will raise their cultivation base to the ninth level of Qi training. , became the new elder of the Zhou family.

Among them, Zhou Xuanchen and other four Zhou family cultivators naturally became the elders of the Zhou family after breaking through the ninth level of Qi training.

As for Chen Ting, the husband of Zhou Xuanyan, the fourth elder of the Zhou family, after Zhou Yang held an elders meeting to vote, he was specially approved to become the elder of the Zhou family. He is also the only elder with a foreign surname among the ten elders of the Zhou family at the ninth level of Qi practice.

Chen Ting is actually a little younger than Zhou Xuanyan. He joined the Zhou family when he was in his forties. He has been loyal to the Zhou family for decades, so for his identity as a monk with a surname other than Zhou, he became the elder of the Zhou family. Most monks still have no opinion.

Moreover, Zhou Yang also intends to use Chen Ting to set an example, attracting outstanding cultivators from the outside world to join the Zhou family and enhance the strength of the family.

He would have such a thought, and it was also recently that his adoptive mother, Zhou Xuanyu, sent him a message that Zhou Yuanchun and Zhou Yuanzhen, two female monks of the Zhou family's "Yuan" generation, should find a husband-in-law for them and start a family.

After careful calculation, Zhou Yang is now fifty-two years old. Zhou Yuanchun is the sixth oldest, seven years older than him. Although Zhou Yuanzhen is a little younger, he is in his forties.

These two women are both low-rank spiritual root cultivators, and there is no hope of foundation building in this life. Zhou Yuanzhen, who is young, is only at the fifth level of Qi training, and has just broken through.

According to an unwritten rule within the Zhou family, even if the cultivators of the Zhou family were separated by blood, they would not agree to form a daoist.

Although this rule is not written into a book, it is written into the family rules, but the elders have warned the younger monks from childhood.

As for Zhou Yuanchun and Zhou Yuanzhen, as they grew older and gained more knowledge, the little bit of admiration they had for Zhou Yang had long been shattered by reality.

Therefore, when they reach the age of marriage, they are bound to recruit their son-in-law and get married like their female elders such as Zhou Xuanyu and Zhou Xuanyan.

Of course, the Zhou family's family rules definitely did not state that female monks must recruit husbands to start a family.

However, as a female cultivator with poor spiritual qualifications, she has been given preferential treatment by her family since she was a child, and has been instilled in various ideological teachings by the elders through words and deeds. stay single.

Being single also has strength!

As a female cultivator from a family, she has enjoyed various privileges from her family since she was a child. Unless she can successfully become a cultivator at the foundation-building stage, it is impossible for her to remain single for the rest of her life.

Once you are sixty years old and you are still single, and you are not a foundation-building cultivator, you will be gossiped by other clansmen!

Of course, Zhou Yang did not have the idea of ​​forcing the two sisters of the same clan to marry, but as the patriarch, he must consider the ideas of the clan, especially Zhou Xuanyu, the adoptive mother, who personally sent a message to him to explain this matter, he must pay attention to it. .

Fortunately, Zhou Yuanchun and Zhou Yuanzhen themselves did not reject the matter of recruiting their son-in-law into the marriage, but only said that they would personally select the person to be married, and did not want to accept the forced arrangement of the family.

Zhou Yang, of course, completely agrees with this. A twisted melon is not sweet, of course he understands this truth.

And in order to do this well, after the news spread that cultivator Qi outside Chen Ting became the elder of the Zhou family, he specially let people spread the news of the Zhou family recruiting a son-in-law everywhere in Fangshi.

The recruitment of sons-in-law by various immortal-cultivating families in the foundation-building period has always been a thing that loose cultivators are talking about, because for loose cultivators, joining the cultivating family through this way is the fastest way to achieve class take-off.

No matter what the other worlds of immortality were like, in the boundless sand and sea world of immortality, it was a situation where there were more men than women. On average, there could be one female monk out of every five monks.

Therefore, in the boundless sand sea cultivating world, for most loose cultivators and even family cultivators, being able to marry a female immortal cultivator as a wife is a matter of face.

Loose cultivators join the immortal family. Although it is a marriage, it is also a fact that the wife is a cultivator. This alone is attractive to many loose cultivators.

Not to mention, once you join the Xiuxian family, it means that you have changed from a loose cultivator to a family cultivator. Not only will you be able to get the guidance of the family's senior cultivators on the way to practice, but you can also use the family's name to facilitate your work when you are outside.

There are many people who want to join the Immortal Immortal Clan, and each Immortal Immortal Clan has a lot of requirements when it comes to recruiting a son-in-law.

According to the conditions for recruiting a son-in-law formulated by Zhou Yang, Zhou Yuanchun and Zhou Yuanzhen after negotiating with the sisters, firstly, cultivators over the age of 80 were excluded, and then the lower-quality Linggen-qualified cultivators were excluded. Detailed requirements have been made in all aspects, and a series of checkpoints have been set up.

So, "asking the magic" is really a good spell.

Under the "Ask Divine Technique", even if some loose cultivators pass the primary elections, in the final stage, it will be easy to find out how many times they have been in and out of each "Fengyuelou", and whether they have forced other women. Experienced, or done something wicked.

Those who have bad personalities and low morals, no matter how good Linggen's aptitude is, how high their cultivation bases are, and how handsome they are, will never become the son-in-law of the Zhou family.

So, after a year-long screening, Zhou Yuanchun and Zhou Yuanzhen finally picked out a husband who satisfied them.

Among them, the husband-in-law selected by Zhou Yuanchun was named Tan Qiu~lightnovelpub.net~ fifty-four years old, with seven levels of Qi training, and a mid-grade spiritual root qualification.

Although this person is no longer Yuanyang, he was only brought into the "Fengyuelou" by an old fried dough stick when he was young and ignorant for a month.

The husband-in-law selected by Zhou Yuanzhen was named Huang Yi, forty-seven years old, with seven levels of Qi practice, and a mid-grade spiritual root aptitude.

Compared with Zhou Yuanchun's husband Tan Qiu, Huang Yi not only still maintains the body of Yuanyang, but also looks better.

In fact, both women fell in love with Huang Yi at that time, and almost staged a farce of "two women fighting for husbands".

Fortunately, Zhou Yang directly asked Huang Yi's opinion at that time, and Huang Yi himself was very realistic, and directly chose the younger and more beautiful Zhou Yuanzhen, which made Zhou Yuanchun very angry.

Interestingly, Huang Yi himself showed regret after learning that Zhou Yuanchun was the great-granddaughter of Zhou Minghan, the old patriarch of the Zhou family.

Zhou Yang, as a bystander, almost laughed out loud when he saw this scene.

He understands Huang Yi's feelings very well. As a man, if he wants to choose one of two strange women as his wife, of course, he must first choose the young and beautiful one.

But as a man who wants to achieve a class jump by joining the family, of course, it is cost-effective to choose a richer and more powerful woman as his wife! It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world. As a loose cultivator, Huang Yi is of course not bad in terms of human relationships and sophistication. Naturally, he knows that the Zhou family cannot let him choose again.

And if he had offended Zhou Yuanchun for the first time, if he chooses Zhou Yuanchun again, let alone whether Zhou Yuanchun will ignore him or not, even Zhou Yuanzhen, his now-booked wife, will probably want to treat him like this in the future." "Heartless man" skinned and cramped, so how could he hang around in Zhou's house in the future?
