Chapter 278: Five Years!
After the family meeting, the atmosphere of the Zhou family was obviously different.
First of all, the number of monks who took concubines reached forty or fifty in just one month, and every day on the various spiritual mountains, you could hear and see the spell fireworks released by a certain child of the Zhou family because of taking concubines.
Although it is said that after a mortal woman marries an immortal cultivator, her status in the family is not high, but taking a concubine is always a happy event, and putting a spell fireworks to make the bride happy and happy, many immortal cultivators will still do it.
Moreover, showing the powerful power of immortal cultivators in front of mortal women in this way is also very easy for mortal women to have a sense of worship and admiration, making family life more harmonious in the future.
Some of these people are busy taking concubines and giving birth to children, and they want to win a generous maternity subsidy fund and special contribution point rewards, but some people are worried about when Zhou Yang said at the family meeting when the spirit stone dividends will arrive, and they will get together to discuss this matter whenever they have free time.
Of course, the most discussed thing by these people is actually the feasibility of the Zhou family's self-production of Zhujidan.
Throughout the entire Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm, up to now, it is estimated that only Huangshamen has the power to achieve self-produced Zhuji Dan.
Of course, if the Chen family and the Nie family cooperated, it would be possible for them to produce their own Zhuji Dan, after all, these two families had third-order alchemists and Purple Mansion cultivators.
If the Zhou family can achieve self-production of Zhujidan on their own, the significance is very extraordinary.
Just like the original White Camel Ridge Chen family, because the ancestor of the Chen family could produce his own foundation building pill, the entire Baisha River Oasis Immortal Cultivation Realm was much more than other large oases in terms of the number of monks in the foundation building period and the number of monks in the Qi cultivation period.
It can be said that in this boundless sand sea immortal cultivation realm, whoever masters the Zhuji Dan will control the fate of countless Qi cultivation period cultivators.
If the Zhou family can produce Zhuji Dan by itself, they don't plan to outflow Zhuji Dan, as long as the news is released, there will naturally be countless scattered cultivators and small family cultivators flocking to it.
Who hasn't been lucky?
As long as the Zhou family can refine the Zhuji Dan, from the side, the value of this thing for the Zhou family is no longer as valuable as before.
If someone can really exchange the treasures that make it difficult for the Zhou family to refuse, can the Zhou family really hold back and not change them?
Although the monks of the Zhou family did not want to build the foundation to outflow, they wanted to make the Chihu Mountain Oasis as prosperous as the Baisha River Oasis, because then not only could the Zhou family make profits from it and become stronger and stronger, but they could also gain great benefits from it.
Zhou Yang had also heard the voices of those clansmen, but he didn't care much.
The clansmen talked about what to do, and he always had a rod and scale in his heart.
Therefore, after the family meeting, he began to fully hand over the affairs of the clan to the deputy patriarch Zhou Guangxiang, and he concentrated on retreating in the "Qianyang Cave" to improve his alchemy.
His alchemy technique was still at the middle grade of the third order, which was very inconsistent with his status as a cultivator in the Purple Mansion period.
Moreover, after arriving in the Purple Mansion Period, although he obtained many powerful magic weapons, the "Dayan Sword Technique", which had always been regarded as a killer weapon by him, could not fully exert its power because he did not have a sufficient number of fourth-order flying swords.
This undoubtedly made him feel very uncomfortable, after all, he spent a lot of time and energy on the "Great Yan Sword Technique".
Therefore, now that he is free, he wants to rush up the alchemy technique, and then collect materials by himself to refine a set of fourth-order flying swords that are most suitable for his own use, just like Jia Yunzhen, who taught him the "Great Yan Sword Technique", refining a set of flying swords with the same attributes and materials.
Zhou Yang had a large number of third-order refining materials on his body, and there were also a lot of accumulated third-order refining materials in the Zhou family's treasure house, so the prerequisites for him to improve his alchemy skills were still very good.
Moreover, when the Divine Soul was subsumed into the Purple Mansion Dao Palace and entered the state of "Divine Journey Heaven and Earth", he also had a deep understanding of alchemy, which was also of great help to him to improve his alchemy now.
And the fourth-order high-grade magic weapon "Lihuo Vermilion Bird Furnace" that he obtained from the "Golden Light Master" storage ring is also a very precious fourth-order high-grade refining furnace, which is enough to make many fourth-order refiners break their heads and compete for a heavy treasure of refining weapons.
In this way, coupled with the "Qianyang True Fire" that he himself has mastered, if he only talks about the external conditions, I am afraid that even if he searches the immortal cultivation world, he will not be able to find a person who can be better than him.
Therefore, when he really calmed down to improve his alchemy, the level of alchemy was almost the same every month.
In less than three months, he was successfully promoted to a third-order high-grade refiner.
Of course, becoming a third-order high-grade refiner was not his goal, his real goal was to become a fourth-order refiner.
Therefore, after he became a third-order high-grade refiner, he did not stop refining, but instead accelerated the refining speed.
After three years of retreating in this way, Zhou Yang's own many third-order refining materials were consumed by him, not to mention that even the third-order refining materials accumulated in the Zhou family's treasure house were consumed by him.
And after so many materials were consumed, the result was as many as more than fifty pieces of various third-order magic weapons, as well as a fifty percent success rate in refining third-order high-grade magic weapons.
The success rate of refining third-order high-grade magic weapons reached fifty percent, which was a realm that Zhou Minghan, the old patriarch of the Zhou family, had not reached at the beginning.
Basically, this is also the limit that Zhou Yang can get by relying on the pile of materials, and if he wants to improve the success rate, he looks at talent and understanding, not practice makes perfect.
It's just that the success rate of this refiner, although it has already met the conditions for impacting a fourth-order refiner, but if you really want to succeed in impacting a fourth-order refiner, it is estimated that it will not be possible to succeed without wasting dozens of materials.
And the fourth-order magic weapon refining materials are not cheap, a material for refining the fourth-order low-grade magic weapon, without four or five thousand spirit stones, cannot be taken at all, and it is often priceless.
The materials in Zhou Yang's hand, plus the materials accumulated by the Zhou family, added up to enough for him to refine seven or eight fourth-order magic weapons.
In this case, how dare he easily attack a fourth-order refiner.
He couldn't easily attack a fourth-order refiner, but that didn't mean that Zhou Yang would give up his goal like this.
A temporary recuperation, just for a better outbreak.
Therefore, he suspended his refining and began to practice the secret technique of controlling fire that Qingyang Zhenren had given him, "Xuanyang Fire Fighting Technique".
This "Xuanyang Fire Fighting Technique" is very profound and obscure, it was originally a secret technique that only monks in the Jindan period were qualified to practice, and it was very difficult for monks in the Zifu period to practice.
But the power of this secret art is considerable.
Although Zhou Yang has mastered the domineering true fire of "Qianyang True Fire", he rarely uses this method in his daily fighting methods.
Of course, there is a reason why he wants to hide that he has the "Qianyang Treasure Body", but the bigger reason is that he does not have a good fire control technique that can allow him to fully exert the power of the "Qianyang True Fire".
However, after he practiced the "Xuanyang Fire Fighting Technique", this situation changed.
In "Xuanyang Fire Fighting Technique", there are not only many fire control and fire control methods that can allow him to better control and control the "Qianyang True Fire", but also several secret techniques that can give full play to the power of the "Qianyang True Fire".
Zhou Yang's practice of "Xuanyang Fire Fighting Technique" not only wanted to improve his ability in controlling and controlling fire, but also wanted to enrich his combat methods, so that the fire magic power of "Qianyang True Fire" could bloom with its due power.
After practicing the "Xuanyang Fire Fighting Technique" in this way for about two years, he finally improved his ability to control and control fire by a large margin, and successfully mastered one of the secret skills, "Flame Dragon Explosion".
After experimentation, Zhou Yang found that the "Flame Dragon Explosion" was not only comparable to a fourth-order high-grade spell in terms of instantaneous lethality, but also the continuous "Qianyang True Fire" burning damage was not comparable to any fourth-order spell.
The only drawback of this secret technique is that it consumes at least 30% of his mana, which means that even in his heyday, he only has the power of three strikes.
However, this shortcoming, as his cultivation improves, will definitely no longer be a shortcoming, so he is still very satisfied with this result.
And after making some achievements in the "Xuanyang Fire Fighting Technique", Zhou Yang tried to refine the third-order high-grade magic weapon again, and sure enough, the success rate of the refining weapon has increased again, although it has not been directly increased by one percent, but there is at least half of it.
There was a fifty and a half success rate in refining a third-order high-grade magic weapon, and Zhou Yang felt that he could give it a try to refine a fourth-order magic weapon.
However, before he could put his idea into practice, Ma Shaoyang, a foundation-building monk who was a vassal of the Zhou family, suddenly came to visit him.
"Ma Daoyou suddenly came to visit, I don't know what happened?"
Zhou Yang sat on the cold jade bed, looking at Ma Shaoyang, who was bowing his eyebrows and respectful in front of him, and a look of curiosity flashed in his eyes.
This Ma Shaoyang was in the limelight at his Purple Mansion Celebration that day, and the fourth-order elixir "Earth Fire Lingzhi" was still in his storage bag, ready to exchange treasures with people in the future.
Of course, he didn't take this heavy gift in vain, and afterwards he not only gave Ma Shaoyang the right to use a shop in the "Liuyunfang" for a hundred years, but also asked Zhou Guangxiang to help Ma Shaoyang occupy the third-order spiritual mountain to arrange a third-order formation.
In terms of value, Ma Shaoyang must have earned this return gift.
"Seniors Mingjian, juniors came to meet seniors this time, because they want to make a deal with seniors!"
Ma Shaoyang glanced up at Zhou Yang slightly, and then immediately lowered his head and said in a deep voice the intention of his sudden visit.
"Oh, you want to make a deal with me?
Zhou Yang suddenly became interested.
Generally speaking, low-level monks find high-level monks to trade, and the things they trade are definitely treasures suitable for high-level monks.
And in this kind of transaction, the high-ranking monk must be the one who earns, but he just earns more and earns less.
"The juniors want to use the news of a heaven and earth spiritual fire to exchange a Tsukidan from the seniors!"
Ma Shaoyang looked up at Zhou Yang and said the transaction with fiery eyes.
