In the past five years, Zhang Sidao's alchemy has been upgraded to the third order, and Qing Chan has also broken through the sixth layer of foundation building four years ago, I am afraid that in a year or two, he will catch up with Zhang Zhixuan.

In the last year, relying on the abundant aura of Chaoyin Mountain, the patriarch's cultivation took another step forward, breaking through to the eighth layer of foundation building like cold smoke.

However, the patriarch is already more than three Jiazi, and with the injury of his vitality in his early years, Shouyuan has less than forty years left, and there is no possibility of opening up the Purple Mansion.

In the past five years, the Zhang family has had four cultivators break through to the ninth level of Qi cultivation, and the number of family elders has exceeded thirteen.

It's a pity that Zhang Siyang and Zhang Zhixing still don't have the courage to take the risk and rush through the level, and their good deeds are not enough to exchange for Zhuji Dan, so they stumbled past the age of sixty and missed the opportunity to build the foundation.

Of these four newly broken through Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer Cultivators, except for one Zhizi Cultivator, the rest were all Sizi Cultivators. At the age of seventy years old for Zhang Zhixuan, the Sizi monks have grown up, while the Mengzi monks have gradually withered.

Among the monks of the Mengzi generation, the eleventh uncle had been seated the year before last, and died at home in peace, and the six elders of the family when Zhang Zhixuan first started to cultivate, now only the nineteenth uncle remains.

Below eleven uncles, there are only five or six monks left in the Mengzi generation of the family, and the youngest in the middle grade of their generation is Han Yan, who is now seventy-seven years old. The remaining brothers and sisters have either died or died in the brutal fighting.

Thirteenth Uncle Zhang Menghan was already bedridden, and it was estimated that when the oil ran out, he was almost one hundred and sixteen years old, and he was already very close to the Qi Refining Cultivator's Shouyuan Limit.

The sixteenth uncle, Zhang Menggong, also retired from the post of county magistrate of Lushan County, and went to Tiantai Peak to retire for the rest of his life, and Zhang Siheng, the grandson of the ninth uncle, took his place and assumed the position of the county magistrate of Lushan County.

This kid's spiritual root is very poor, he is now more than fifty years old, and his cultivation is not at the second level of qi refining, Zhang Zhixuan just wants to take care of him, but he can't use his strength at all. Fortunately, he is very happy in Lushan County, as long as the Zhang family does not fall, he can enjoy a lifetime of glory and wealth, and live a majestic life among mortals.

Five years ago, the Zhang family expected the outbreak of a major war, and began to hoard resources to prepare for the war.

Zhang Zhixuan guessed correctly, only five years later, just when Zhang Sidao finished revising the classics and was about to return to the sect, the war finally broke out.

Qingxuanzong issued an unprecedented conscription order, and the entire Zhang family, almost all the foundation building monks were in the conscription order. Even Qing Chan, who rarely showed up, and the old and frail patriarch were asked to participate in this operation.

The scale of this mobilization almost exceeds the rebellion of demon beasts every hundred years. The entire Zhang family had to send ninety Qi refining cultivators to participate in the war.

Zhang Zhixuan went down to the mountain to cultivate for more than 50 years, and the family has developed very smoothly for more than 50 years, and the population has almost doubled.

In this war, Zhang Zhixuan naturally will not be polite, as long as these guests do not have a skill, they all join the recruitment list, and Zhang Zhixuan also recruited about 30 people from the Zhou family and other vassal families.

Soon, Zhang Zhixuan led ninety monks to assemble towards Yanlai Peak, took a large magic weapon flying boat over the Broken Cloud Mountain Range, and then obeyed the order at the foot of Yuntai Mountain.

Because Qingxuanzong's flying boat did not have much space and could not fit too many people at all, Jin Laozu specially borrowed his large flying boat from Liang Taixu, and even purchased twenty large whale pack beasts from the Song Kingdom to transport the baggage.

Even Zhang Zhixuan's flying magic weapon had to be contributed and handed over to the Qingxuanzong monks to transport people. The family's horse team also belonged to the Qingxuanzong to transport baggage for the front line in Taicheng County.

After five years of preparation, Qingxuanzong had already hoarded a large amount of spiritual rice in Chaoyin Mountain, and the Purple Mansion monks even took action and spent five years opening three tunnels in the Broken Cloud Mountain Range to climb over the three most dangerous peaks.

Zhang Zhixuan led people to Yanlai Peak, and found that the Wu and Liu families had arrived, and when Zhang Zhixuan brought people to come, they took the whale pack beast to Chaoyin Mountain to assemble.

The whale beast has a docile personality, with a body length of ten zhang, a width of about three zhang, and a height of one zhang and eight feet, and its body is streamlined. There are also a pair of huge wings on the two ribs, which are more than thirty or forty zhang when fully stretched.

Although this large demon beast is only of the third order, it is the most important domesticated demon beast of human beings, and the whale pack beast has great strength, and it has a lot of endurance and is good at flying, and the monk's baggage transportation almost completely depends on them.

The price of a whale beast is very expensive, almost more than the price of a Tsukidan, and these whale beasts have been castrated and cannot breed a herd.

Qingxuanzong mined the spirit stone mine in Chaoyin Mountain, which could increase the income of 20,000 spirit stones every year. Now that the spirit stone mine has been mined for twenty years, the accumulated income is already very considerable, and it is precisely because of the large increase in income that they have the spare power to buy whale beasts to prepare for the war with the Hongshan Sect.

Underneath the beast, there is a huge pod, the space of the pod is huge, and it can seat thirty people at a time.

When Zhang Zhixuan and the others arrived, the Qingxuanzong monk counted the number of people and immediately rode the whale pack beast and assembled towards Chaoyin Mountain.

The speed of the whale beast is not fast, it is far inferior to the flight of the foundation building monk Edgeworth, but compared to the speed of the monk in the Qi training period, it is still much exceeded, and in just seven or eight days, everyone arrived at the foot of Chaoyin Mountain.

The Chaoyin Mountain Spirit Stone Mine has been mined for twenty years, and the mortals on the mountain have multiplied, forming four towns.

Over the past twenty years, the 60,000 mortals on the mountain have grown to more than 80,000.

In order to facilitate the cultivation of these newborn children, Qingxuanzong established a spiritual testing platform in Chaoyin Mountain, and some children born in Chaoyin Mountain have already been detected with spiritual roots.

In the past 20 years, the Zhang family alone has had three children born in Chaoyin Mountain, and after the spiritual root was detected, they returned to Lingjing Mountain to practice.

Since the patriarch sat in Chaoyin Mountain, the two have rarely been able to see each other, and usually can only rely on correspondence.

After the two met, they talked all night, and the two waited for a few more days, and when Qingchan settled down at home, they also came to Chaoyin Mountain to meet everyone.

This time to attack the Hongshan Sect, the Qingxuan Sect almost poured out, and even the seeds of Hanyan, which opened up the Purple Mansion, had to be dispatched. The number of foundation-building monks gathered in Chaoyin Mountain soon exceeded a hundred.

Han Yan had already completed the task of guarding the Lingtian two years ago and regained his free body. This time, they also followed everyone to Chaoyin Mountain, and the five foundation building monks of the Zhang family, except for Zhang Sidao, who stayed in the sect, the remaining four people had to participate in this war.
