Qinglian Peak.

After Zhou Zhiying returned to the family, he stayed in Zhou Chundong Mansion in a very low-key manner.

And Zhou Chun got her reminder, and he and Zhou Mingde were also distracted by the situation of Xu Fu and his wife, and prepared to break the ban and save people immediately once there was an accident.

The secret rooms where the monks of the Zhou family retreated and formed the Dan all had a full set of individual forbidden protections, and even if the mountain protection array was attacked, it would not affect them.

In the entire Zhou family, only Zhou Mingde and Zhou Chun had the forcible opening method.

In this way, on the third day of Zhou Zhiying's return to Qinglian Peak, Zhou Yuanyuan's retreat room suddenly had abnormal spiritual power fluctuations, but he did not see the Heavenly Phenomenon of the Jie Dan revealed for a long time.

Seeing this situation, after consulting Zhou Zhiying's opinion, Zhou Chun immediately did not hesitate to forcibly break the protective prohibition law here, and forcibly opened the door of the secret room from the outside.

When the door opened, he saw that Zhou Yuanyuan inside had collapsed on the ground with blood in his mouth, his anger was like a gossamer, and his consciousness almost dissipated.

"Mother!!"

After all, it is his biological mother, a loved one who is connected by blood, even if Zhou Zhiying did not have a deep relationship with his mother before, after seeing his dying appearance at this time, he couldn't help but quickly stepped forward to hug his mother with tears in his eyes.

And it seems that it was her cry that awakened the obsession in her heart, Zhou Yuanyuan, whose consciousness was almost dissipated, moved her eyelids slightly, and there were also signs of waking up.

Zhou Chun, who noticed this, hurriedly released Mu Mei Musang and let it take action to treat Zhou Yuanyuan.

With Zhou Yuanyuan's state at this time, it is of course impossible to really save her.

But if she returns to the light for a while, there is no problem.

Under Mu Mei Mu Sang's treatment, the rapidly lost life essence in her body was suddenly partially contained, and her consciousness quickly regained consciousness.

When she opened her eyes, she saw her daughter who was already crying in her arms.

After seeing this daughter who made her the proudest in her life, the loss and despair caused by the failure of Yudan seemed to have dissipated most of them at once, and she couldn't help but raise her hand and gently caress her daughter's pretty face and murmured: "Ying'er, you are back, and you can be by your side before my mother dies, and I will die without regrets!" ”

"It's my daughter who is not filial, I knew that my mother was going to impact Yudan, and my daughter should have come back early!"

Zhou Zhiying cried and blamed himself, his eyes full of remorse.

"Silly boy, I don't blame you, I just blame my mother for not having that ability and opportunity, and after all, she still lived up to the trust and high hopes of the patriarch!"

Zhou Yuanyuan said in his mouth, and also cast an apologetic look at Zhou Chun, who was standing on the side.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun also sighed lightly: "Hey! Xiaoyuan, you don't need to think so, it's come to this, you mother and daughter have a good chat, I won't bother you! ”

After saying that, he shook his head, turned and left the secret room.

After waiting outside like this for almost half an hour, accompanied by Zhou Zhiying's heart-rending cry inside, Zhou Chun and Zhou Mingde, who rushed over, glanced at each other, and couldn't help but shake their heads again and again.

Zhou Yuanyuan's failure not only cost her life, but also made the Zhou family lose another knot seed and one less Purple Mansion Elder.

This is also a big loss for the family.

It's a pity that because Xu Fu is still in retreat, and it is inconvenient to interfere with his retreat for this matter, he didn't even have time to see his Taoist companion for the last time.

However, at Zhou Zhiying's plea, Zhou Chun and Zhou Mingde both agreed to her request, and temporarily did not mourn Zhou Yuanyuan, only froze his body, and waited for Xu Fu to preside over the funeral after leaving the customs.

If Xu Fu can succeed in marrying Dan!

This is more than three years.

One day three years later, Zhou Xinyan's retreat suddenly appeared in the place where the spiritual energy surged, which soon led to the celestial phenomenon of the knot.

This scene immediately made many Zhou family monks rejoice and be overjoyed.

The fact that the family can have an extra Jindan monk is a very happy thing in itself, not to mention that Zhou Xinyan is still the elder who managed the family's affairs on behalf of the previous generation, which can be regarded as quite popular.

"Not bad, Xinyan, this kid is still competitive, and he finally got off to a good start!"

Zhou Chun looked at the dark clouds gathering in the sky, and he was also relieved, and couldn't help but nod and smile.

Although there have been examples of Zhou Yuanlian's successful marriage before, Zhou Yuanlian's identity is a little sensitive after all, and she is destined to only exist as an invisible person in the family, and she can't take the lead in the open.

And Zhou Xinyan is different.

As the first high-grade spiritual root qualification monk born after the Zhou family took root in Jiufengling, he is a true disciple of the Zhou family, and he has always been widely praised in the family.

At the same time, in the past two hundred years, he has taken care of family affairs instead of Zhou Chun, and he has also managed all aspects in an orderly manner, showing good management ability.

In this way, once he succeeds in marrying Dan, he will be the best propaganda example of the Zhou family, and he will be a person who can act as a façade.

"It just so happens that I'm going to be busy with the matter of Hua Dan's baby, and I can't be distracted from family affairs at all, so when Xinyan's child is out of the customs, I'll talk to him about the handover of the patriarch!"

Zhou Chun thought secretly in his heart, and also had new ideas and plans.

Not long after, as the celestial phenomenon of the knot pill dissipated, the news of Zhou Xinyan's success in the knot pill also spread quickly.

This news not only caused a sensation in the Zhou family, but also caused some discussion in the outside world, especially some older Purple Mansion monks, who seemed to dream back to two hundred years ago for a moment.

More than 200 years ago, it seems that the Zhou family also had this kind of thing of people marrying people one after another.

At that time, Zhou Chun first returned from the Dan outside, and completely announced that the Zhou family had returned to the Jindan family.

Then Zhou Mingde succeeded in marrying Dan at the age of more than 400 years, causing a sensation in the Yasukuni immortal cultivation world.

Now that the Zhou family has succeeded in marrying Zhou Yuanlian, and now there is another Zhou Xinyan, how similar the situation is to that time!

It's just that at that time, the Zhou family was just a Jindan family that made a comeback, but now it has become the third largest force in Yasukuni, with Yuan Infant Stage monks as backers, and there are as many as five Jindan Stage monks on the surface!

In the next month or two, various congratulatory letters were sent to the Zhou family from all over Yasukuni, and many forces had nothing to do with the Zhou family.

Obviously, with the emergence of the new generation of Jindan monks of the Zhou family one after another, the three words "nouveau riche" no longer apply to the Zhou family.

If in a certain period of time, a certain generation has several geniuses who lead a family to grow and develop, and this family can also be described as an "upstart".

Then, after hundreds of years, when this family can still continue to produce Jindan monks, no one can measure each other by "nouveau riche".

Therefore, in the face of the Zhou family, which is now a general trend, many forces will be willing to take the initiative to release goodwill to make friends even if they have nothing to do with the Zhou family because of the distance, and in line with the principle of multiple friends and multiple paths.

On the contrary, the Moon Wheel Sect and the Yanyang Sect didn't seem to care much about the fact that the Zhou family had people marrying Dan one after another, but they just sent a Purple Mansion monk to send a congratulatory letter to them.

And Zhou Chun is happy to see it.

He is not afraid that the two factions will despise the Zhou family, but he is afraid that the two factions will value the Zhou family too much.

Of course, there is a reason why the two factions don't care.

Because in the past few years, the two factions themselves have also succeeded in marrying Dan one after another, all because of the great benefits they have received from the previous beast tide.

In this way, with the same number of talents in their own forces, the high-level leaders of the two factions have no reason to worry that a mere Zhou family will pose a threat to themselves.

As long as there are no Yuan Infant Stage monks in the Zhou family, the more Jindan Stage monks appear, it will be a good thing for the high-level of the two factions.

At least it can alleviate the pressure on the monks of the two factions facing the Yunzhou Demon Clan, and let the Zhou family also arrange for the Jindan period monks to participate in the rotation.

In this way, time passed slowly, and soon more than a year passed.

The discussion about Zhou Xinyan's success had long since stopped at this time, and no one even talked about it within the Zhou family anymore.

It was under these circumstances that the place where Xu Fu retreated suddenly appeared in the place where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth changed, and then there was a celestial phenomenon that everyone could see.

Someone in the Zhou family has succeeded in marrying Dan again!

Looking at the celestial phenomenon that appeared in the sky, many Zhou family monks were stunned.

Even the Heavenly Mirror True Person, who was cultivating in the Cave Mansion, couldn't help but take a second look at where the Celestial Phenomenon of the Jie Dan was.

"Isn't this week's family really favored by God? In this way, some people have succeeded in marrying Dan one after another, but it is not a sentence of luck that can explain the past! ”

He muttered to himself, and his heart was also amazed.

And Zhou Chun was also slightly relieved after seeing the Jiedan celestial phenomenon.

couldn't help but say to Zhou Zhiying beside him: "Ying'er, you have also seen that your father has succeeded, now you can rest assured!" ”

Hearing his words, Zhou Zhiying was also happy and sad, and couldn't help but sigh in a low voice: "It's a pity that my mother didn't see this day!" ”

"There may be some excitement in the family in the future, you better stay away for a while, and when your father is out of the customs, I will let him go to Jiufeng Ridge to mourn your mother with you!"

Zhou Chun glanced at the depressed apprentice and whispered his own arrangements.

"Yes, disciple understands."

Zhou Zhiying answered softly, but there was no objection.

And just like Zhou Chun said, when the news of the success of the Zhou family after more than a year came out, the entire Yasukuni Immortal Cultivation World was a sensation!

Not only in the Yasukuni Immortal Cultivation Realm, but in the entire Immortal Cultivation Realm, the Jindan period is the highest pursuit in the lives of the vast majority of monks.

Yuan infant monks are too rare, and some small countries may only have one in a thousand years, not the kind of monk with the best spiritual root qualifications, not with a great background, and dare not think about the beauty of turning into a pill and marrying a baby.

Therefore, in less than 30 years of the Zhou family, three people have succeeded in marrying Dan one after another, which is really surprising.

Even if it is a great sect like the Moon Wheel Sect that has been inherited for thousands of years, the number of times this has happened is only a handful!

Therefore, many people have to wonder if the Zhou family has any special knot pill spirit object, such as the [Five Elements Spirit Fruit] tree, or some kind of anti-heaven secret method that can improve the success rate of knotting!

This kind of skeptical remarks soon spread in the Yasukuni Immortal Cultivation Realm, and even in the two major sects of the Moon Wheel Sect and the Yanyang Sect, there were many monks who were talking about this, including some elders of the two sects of the Jindan Period, who were also suspicious.

In this case, the two major sects were also investigating the intelligence of several people who had joined the Dan this time, and at the same time sent Elder Jin Dan to the Zhou family to congratulate them.

is called congratulations, but in fact, it is naturally a test of the Zhou family.

However, Zhou Chun is not afraid of shadows this time, and he is not afraid of being investigated and tempted at all.

Because this time, the three Zhou family monks were able to succeed in marrying Dan, which was really created by their own luck and strength, and had nothing to do with him Zhou Chun.

Except for Zhou Yuanlian who used a [Calendula Poison Dragon Fruit], the other two people used the knotted spirit objects were all normal spirit objects, and they were not afraid of investigation at all.

Even if it was the [Calendula Poison Dragon Fruit], it was also the spoils he had seized on the Immortal Demon Battlefield back then, and it could withstand investigation.

Therefore, when Zhou Chun dealt with the Jindan period monks sent by the two major gates, it was also reasonable and easy.

After making a fuss like this for a while, the two major sects that did not find anything abnormal could only blame the luck of the Zhou family.

After a few more months in this way, Zhou Xinyan, who had successfully married the Dan first, finally got out of the customs after two years of consolidating his cultivation.

"Congratulations to the virtuous nephew Jin Dan Dacheng, immortality can be expected!"

On Qinglian Peak, after Zhou Chun saw Zhou Xinyan who was out of the customs, he also smiled and congratulated him.

"Thank you Uncle Thirteen for your congratulations."

Zhou Xinyan responded with joy on his face, and then saluted Zhou Chun with gratitude in his eyes and said: "Thanks to the thirteenth uncle who gave him the knot pill spirit object, the younger generation can succeed in the knot, the thirteenth uncle, your kindness, the younger generation will not dare to forget it in this life!" ”

Seeing this, Zhou Chun was also quite pleased in his heart, but he said: "There is no need to be so polite, you have worked hard for the family for many years, and the merits and hard work you have made are all in our eyes, and those knotted spirit objects are also exchanged for your own merits." ”

"Yes, the younger generation will definitely work harder in the future to repay the trust and support of you and the family, Uncle Thirteen!"

Zhou Xinyan responded very artistically.

Then the uncle and nephew discussed the issue of holding the Jindan Festival with a relaxed face.

At the same time, Zhou Chun also hinted at his intention to abdicate and make way for Xian.

But maybe after the marriage, the mood is different, Zhou Xinyan doesn't seem to be very interested in taking over as the patriarch, and he doesn't want to take over.

Zhou Chun was also a little helpless about this.

If Zhou Xinyan is unwilling, he can't force the other party to agree.

After all, the other party is also a Jindan monk now, and the respect he should have is still there.

So Zhou Chun could only let him continue to grasp the family affairs in the future, and at least cultivate a qualified agent before letting go.

The majesty of his patriarch still existed, and Zhou Xinyan didn't dare to refuse his request, so he agreed on the spot.

A year later, Zhou Xinyan's Jindan Celebration was held on Qinglian Peak with a high profile, and as many as fifteen Jindan monks were present, including many Jindan elders from the Moon Wheel Sect and the Yanyang Sect.

In terms of momentum, Zhou Chun's Jindan celebration back then was also quite inferior in comparison.

After this Jindan celebration, Zhou Xinyan was also officially promoted to become the elder of the Zhou family.

Another two years have passed, and Xu Fu has also been out of the customs in a low-key manner.

He had already learned about the failure and fall of the Taoist companion Zhou Yuanyuan after the marriage, and he only met Zhou Chun in a hurry after leaving the customs, and then went to Jiufengling to meet his deceased wife and daughter.

A few days later, the funeral of Zhou Yuanyuan, the elder of the Zhou family, was officially held in Jiufengling, and Zhou Chun, Zhou Mingde and other high-level family leaders were all present to participate in the mourning.

After the funeral was over, Zhou Chun had the opportunity to talk to Xu Fu alone.

In the quiet room, Zhou Chun looked directly at Xu Fu and asked, "Elder Xu, what do you think about your future path?" ”

Hearing his question, Xu Fu immediately shook his head and said, "The juniors don't have any ideas, as long as the family has an arrangement, the juniors are willing to obey." ”

This answer seemed to be a bit unexpected by Zhou Chun, which made him stunned for a moment.

After staring at the other party carefully, he smiled slightly: "Elder Xu doesn't have to worry about anything, now that you have successfully married the Dan, you are also a core high-level in the family, if you have any ideas, you can rest assured and boldly say it!" ”

When the words fell, I saw Xu Fu shaking his head again and again: "Patriarch, don't get me wrong, the junior really doesn't have any ideas at the moment. ”

Seeing this, Zhou Chun could only nod and said, "Okay, it seems that I have thought too much, then Elder Xu, you can practice well in the family next, familiarize yourself with the power of the Jindan Period, and when you have more ideas, you can propose it to the family again." ”

"Yes, the juniors obey."

Xu Fu replied respectfully, and then the two ended the conversation.

Although this conversation did not achieve the expected results, what Zhou Chun wanted to do did not change because of this.

Under his arrangement, Zhou Yuanlian secretly went to the Yushan stronghold in the name of traveling.

As for Xu Fu, no matter what he thinks in the future, he will not let him go there again.

In today's Zhou family, a relative of Jindan cultivation is actually not a matter of concern, and he can't turn the sky upside down at all.

However, it is still necessary to prevent relatives from wielding power excessively.

Xu Fu, who cultivated in the Jindan period, will not be restricted by any constraints in the Zhou family in the future, and he can do some things he wants at will.

Correspondingly, he will also lose some real power and can no longer be in charge alone.

This is the rule that Zhou Chun made for those relatives of the family, the monks of the Jindan period!

And with Xu Fu's arrangements coming to an end for the time being, Zhou Chun's matter of going out to marry a baby was also quickly put on his agenda.

He had been delaying the affairs of these juniors for several years, and now he could not continue to procrastinate.

Now many problems and many hidden dangers will no longer be a problem after he really turns Dan into a baby!

So after a long talk with Zhou Mingde, he told his apprentice Zhou Zhiying to explain some things, and went to Sujia Mountain Gate to accompany Taoist Su Yuzhen for a few months, and Zhou Chun left the Qinglian Mountain Range with his five spirit pets.

To the outside world, he went out this time to find an opportunity to break through the barrier of the late Jindan.

Only a few people really know the inside story.

More than half a year later, Zhou Chun's figure appeared outside the Jinxia Mountain Range, a well-known and dangerous place in the Immortal Cultivation Realm in the extreme west.

The Jinxia Mountain Range is located in the territory of Jiang Country in the Immortal Cultivation Realm in the extreme west, and it is a well-known dangerous place in this country and even in the surrounding countries.

The mountain range is not very large, but it is very treacherous.

There are several abundant veins of spiritual gold in this mountain, including a large vein of pure gold.

However, because there is a huge group of "gold-devouring ants" entrenched in the mountains, the major forces of Jiang can only be greedy for this and cannot really invest in development.

It's not that they really have nothing to do with the "gold eater" group.

In fact, if a primordial monk is willing to sit here and continue to sweep away the ant colony, after a few decades, the ant colony will surely be wiped out.

But what infant monk would waste decades here?

Although the ore veins here are of great value, they are not particularly attractive to the Yuan Infant Monks.

Therefore, to this day, the Jinxia Mountain Range is still a forbidden place for immortal cultivators, except for some low-level monks who will not be afraid of death to enter the periphery of the mountain range to capture and hunt "gold-devouring ants", high-level monks will not come here to find themselves uncomfortable.

But for Zhou Chun, the Jinxia Mountains were obviously a very suitable place for cultivation.

He cultivated in the mountains, and his own cultivation would not fall behind, and he didn't have to worry that he would be disturbed by other high-level cultivators when he cultivated the "Zihua Demon Suppression Spiritual Light".

As for the "Gold Devouring Ants" group that made the monks of the late Jindan Dynasty talk about it, Zhou Chun just had the means to restrain them.

I saw that after he stopped at the periphery of the mountain range for a while, he turned into a golden streamer and flew directly into the depths of the mountain range.

In this way, it was only less than two hundred miles deep into the mountains, and a large golden insect cloud appeared in the sky in front of Zhou Chun.

The golden insect cloud was connected together, more than ten miles wide, and there were some pale golden flying ants the size of fingernails.

The "Gold Eater Ant" is not a strange insect, but it has a very sharp tooth and is born to feed on metal ores.

The magic weapons of the immortal cultivators were in front of them, and they could easily be reduced to food.

However, this kind of demon insect has a body as hard as iron, which is comparable to magic weapons of the same level, and it is not easy for magic powers to kill them.

What's more, after they gather into a group, they also have the talent of group damage transfer, which can share the damage of those large-scale spell attacks with countless demon insects.

Relying on this special ability, as well as the huge population, the vast majority of Jindan stage monks encountered them, and there was only one way to escape.

Fortunately, this kind of demon insect can only inhabit the vicinity of large spiritual gold ore veins, once the ore veins are devoured and depleted by them, they can migrate to other mineral veins in time, if they fail to migrate in time, they will starve to death because they can't eat spiritual gold ore!

Therefore, in addition to being extremely destructive to the spiritual gold veins, this kind of demon insect will not cause any great harm to the immortal cultivation world.

At this time, seeing the swarms of "Gold Devouring Ants" rushing towards him, Zhou Chun immediately quickly fell to the ground below, and then slapped the spirit beast bag on his waist and released the Golden Armor Negative Mountain Turtle Stone.

At this time, those "gold-devouring ants" did not realize the seriousness of the matter, and they did not take the huge gold-armored negative mountain turtle in their eyes, and directly swooped down to the ground with the momentum of Mount Tai.

But as a circle of gray aura spread from the stone of the Golden Armor Negative Mountain Turtle, those "Gold Devouring Ants" suddenly began to rain down towards the ground, and no less than tens of thousands of them died before they could make contact!

Although these demon insects have low intelligence and don't know what death is, their life instinct still makes them temporarily stop diving.

And under Zhou Chun's order, the Golden Armor Negative Mountain Turtle Stone did not move at all, but just surrounded the [Yuan Magnetic Divine Light] around his body.

After a stalemate like this for a while, the ant colony in the sky seemed to have received some signal and launched another wave of sworn charges.

As a result, apart from throwing tens of thousands of flying ant corpses again, nothing could be changed, and he couldn't even touch the gray aura!

This time the ant colony seemed to be completely frightened, and soon took the initiative to leave the place.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun happily put away the corpses of the flying ants on the ground.

The gold content of the corpses of these "gold-devouring ants" is extremely high, and after being smelted with real fire, a special kind of "ant gold" can be obtained.

This kind of "ant gold" has a special effect, that is, it acts as a blending agent to blend other spirit gold with different attributes, so as to fuse and exert their respective characteristics, and refiners are quite sought after for this object.

Next, Zhou Chun rode the turtle, and where he passed, the ants retreated.

The Jinxia Mountain Range, which was extremely dangerous in the eyes of the monks of Jiang Guo, was like his own back garden in front of him, and he walked casually.

And in the end, he also chose a valley in the mountains with strong aura and golden qi as a place to stay, and began his own cultivation life.

In the time that followed, Zhou Chun would collect Chaoyang Purple Qi for condensation every morning, and then collect Yuehua Essence Qi at night to fuse with Chaoyang Purple Qi.

Because all this is carried out above the blue sky and nine days, it will not be affected by the weather changes at all.

Even the Gangfeng in the sky, there are spirit pets who take turns to help him resist, so as not to disturb him to refine the essence of the sun and the moon.

And the "Gold Devouring Ants" group also seemed to acquiesce to Zhou Chun's domination of the area near the valley, and easily did not dare to set foot in the area covered by the stone aura of the Golden Armor Negative Mountain Turtle.
