The old patriarch Zhou Minghan, a third-order high-grade refiner, personally refined the second-order high-grade magic weapon, so naturally there was no possibility of failure.

The monks of the foundation building period can already convert mana into the foundation building true fire, although the temperature of this true fire is a little worse than the earth fire, but it is much higher than the temperature of the white flame formed by the burning of the [Burning Sun Wood].

What's even more rare is that the true fire is originally transformed by the monk's mana, and it is gathered and dispersed by the heart, and it is extremely convenient to control, which is completely incomparable to the flames of spiritual objects such as earth fire and sky fire.

In order to let Zhou Yang see carefully, the old patriarch deliberately slowed down when refining the weapon, and in some key places, he would be distracted and used to explain to him with divine sense transmission, which was a treatment only for personal disciples.

Obviously, in the eyes of the current old patriarch, Zhou Yang, the junior, is the successor of alchemy that he finally selected.

Zhou Yang also understands that the opportunity is precious, and whether he understands the things explained by the old patriarch, whether he understands it or not, he will write it down by heart, and when he is free, he will also take notes and write it down, so as not to forget it in the future.

Although immortal cultivators have the ability to remember things, they still forget some memories when they remember a lot, so it is still necessary to take notes on some important things.

It is said that after the great monk of the Yuan Infant period cultivates the Yuan Baby, he will obtain the great power of "memory retrieval", and as long as he has the heart, the memory in the mother's womb during the fetal period can be traced back, and there is no need to take notes at that time.

After about two hours, the old patriarch completed the refining.

These two magic weapons are a defensive inner armor made of rat skin, and a set of four short daggers refined from four rat incisors.

Because when refining the weapon, two drops of Zhou Yang's essence blood sacrificial weapon were taken, and once the magic weapon was refined, it could be used directly.

He was not polite to the old patriarch, and even though he took off his outer robe and put on the defensive inner armor on his body, he inserted four short daggers about seven inches long into the leather sheath and tied them around his waist so that they could be easily accessed at any time.

After he had done this, the old patriarch Zhou Minghan said: "Your cultivation should be able to break through to the seventh layer of qi training soon, right?

The monk's cultivation determines the number and level of his imperial envoy magic weapons, with Zhou Yang's current cultivation of the sixth layer of qi training, and at the same time, the two second-order high-grade magic weapons are a little difficult, if he can break through to the seventh layer of qi training, his mana and divine sense will greatly improve, and he can truly exert the power of the three second-order high-grade magic weapons on his body.

As for the more powerful third-order magic weapon, even if he was given sacrifice, with his current mana divine sense, he would not be able to exert half the power of the magic weapon, and it would be better to use a second-order high-grade magic weapon.

Therefore, the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, as a third-order high-grade refiner, obviously had an excess inventory of third-order magic weapons in his hand, and he would not give them to Zhou Yang for sacrificial refining, not to mention that it would be a waste of resources, and it would also bring Zhou Yang the disaster of killing.

After all, many monks in the foundation building period who are scattered in the foundation building period also use second-order high-grade magic weapons after building the foundation, if they see Zhou Yang, a monk in the Qi cultivation period, with a third-order magic weapon on his body, it would be strange if he didn't kill him.

Zhou Yang also understood this truth, so even if he was valued by the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, he would not make such a request.

At this time, when he heard the words of the old patriarch, his face suddenly straightened, and he replied with a respectful face: "Grandson is trying to tell his great-grandfather about this, recently his grandson has already felt the barrier of the late stage of qi training, and he is about to break through with the help of the abundant aura here in the Cave Mansion on the top of the mountain, and he also asks his great-grandfather for permission." ”

"Very good, then you can go to the cave opposite the old man's cave to retreat and break through, this is the formation token of the cave, remember to return it to the old man after you use it. ”

With a wave of his hand, the old patriarch took out a Dongfu token and handed it to Zhou Yang.

"Great-grandfather Xie, grandson retired. ”

Zhou Yang took the token and couldn't wait to say goodbye to the old patriarch Zhou Minghan and live in the cave mansion opposite.

There are three caves on the top of Yuquan Peak, except for the one where the old patriarch Zhou Minghan lives, the other two are ownerless, if anyone in the family wants to break through the realm with the help of the abundant aura of the cave on the top of the mountain, they can apply to the old patriarch to temporarily live in retreat.

However, there are not many monks in the late stage of Qi cultivation in the Zhou family, and it often takes more than ten years for the late stage monks to improve their cultivation level, so eight of the two ownerless mountaintop cave mansions have been vacant for eight out of ten years.

The cave is equipped with a dust removal array, even if it has been uninhabited for many years, it is as clean as new, Zhou Yang entered it with the cave control token in hand, and after a little tour of the layout in the cave, he went directly to the retreat room in the deepest part of the cave.

The retreat room of this mountaintop cave is directly connected to the spiritual eye of the spiritual veins of Yuquan Peak, and it is the place where the spiritual energy of the entire Yuquan Peak is the strongest, and each retreat room has a cold jade bed carved with a second-order spiritual object, cold jade.

The cold air emitted by the cold jade bed helps the monks to clear their minds and prevent them from going mad.

And some monks in the foundation building period who are rich in wealth, in addition to the cold jade bed, will also prepare treasures such as pure heart futons, contemplation incense and other treasures to assist in cultivation to carry with them.

Zhou Yang sat down cross-legged on the cold jade bed, and immediately felt a chill that penetrated his heart and spleen pouring into his body from the cold jade bed under him, rushing straight to his brain.

Rushed by this cold air, his whole person was much more energetic, and the time to settle down was almost twice as fast as usual.

In the next few months, Zhou Yang retreated in the cave on the top of the mountain without taking a single step, he cooked a bowl of [Jinzhu Rice] rice by himself when he was hungry, and when he was thirsty, he directly used spells to condense water to drink, without stepping into the seventh layer of qi training, and never left the cave mansion.

With this determination, one day three months later, the door of the retreat room opened from the inside with a "creak", and Zhou Yang, who had already practiced Qi at the seventh level, walked out of it with a tired face.

During the three-month retreat, each day was filled with meditation instead of rest, and Zhou Yang's spirit could be described as exhausted to the limit.

It was with this breath that he broke through the barrier from the middle stage of Qi training to the late stage of Qi training, and as soon as the barrier was broken, he could no longer hold on and walked into the bedroom next to the retreat room, and fell asleep on the warm jade bed in the bedroom.

It took three days and three nights to wake up, and after waking up, Zhou Yang felt indescribably comfortable all over his body, and he felt that he had never slept so well in his life.

Of course.

Not to mention that he slept for such a long time for the first time in his previous life and this life, it was the warm jade bed he was sleeping on now, and it was also a treasure that he was not qualified to enjoy before.

The difference is that the cold energy emitted by the cold jade can help the monk to calm his mind and avoid going mad, while the heat emitted by the warm jade can help the monk soothe his spirit and greatly improve the quality of sleep.

"No wonder everyone wants to become a high-level monk, compared with a low-level monk, this high-level monk is not only the difference between longevity and supernatural powers, but also the treatment enjoyed by these food, clothing, housing and transportation, and it is also a different treatment of nobles and commoners!"

Zhou Yang looked at the smooth and warm jade bed under him, and couldn't help but sigh with feeling.

Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road.

In the world of immortal cultivators, the problem of uneven distribution of resources is much more serious than the world in which he was in his previous life.

The low-level cultivators could work hard to fight for a low-grade spirit stone, but they didn't know that they had been fighting hard for decades, and they couldn't afford a bed for the high-level monks to sleep in.

"Fortunately, I'm the one who sleeps in the bed now!"

He didn't know what he thought of, muttered something with a strange face, and then walked out of the cave in a chic manner.

Walking out of the cave mansion where he had been staying for three months, Zhou Yang originally wanted to meet the old patriarch Zhou Minghan and tell the other party the good news that he had broken through the seventh layer of Qi training.

He didn't think that just a few steps out of the cave mansion, he found that Zhou Yun, the seventh grandfather who had been sitting under the [Dragon Scale Tree] for a long time, was missing, and a white cloth was hung on the tree.

Seeing the white cloth, Zhou Yang's face changed suddenly, and the [Dragon Scale Tree] was hung with a white cloth, which was something that only the elders of the family would do when they died.

"Which elder died?"

His heart sank, and the joy of breaking through the seventh layer of Qi cultivation was instantly washed away by this bad news.

There are only eight elders in the Zhou family in total, and this is suddenly one less person, not only is it as simple as one less elder, but also one less high-end combat personnel, and the loss brought to the family is definitely not something that one more seventh-level Qi cultivator can make up.

Not daring to slack off, Zhou Yang immediately changed his itinerary and rushed to the family ancestral hall at the foot of the mountain.

When he arrived at the ancestral hall, he found that as long as the family monks were in the Yuquan Lake Oasis, including the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, they were all here to take care of the funeral affairs of the deceased elders.

At this time, he knew that the elder who had passed away was none other than Zhou Qian, the great elder of the Zhou family, who was the tenth-layer Great Perfection monk who had taken the "Zhuji Dan" but failed to build the foundation.

Zhou Qian, the great elder of the Zhou family, is the eldest of the "light" generation, a middle-grade spiritual root cultivator, and a rare second-order high-grade array mage.

It was precisely because Zhou Qian's talent in the formation was extremely high and his spiritual root qualifications were good that the Zhou family would press the treasure on him back then, and give him the "Zhuji Dan" that he had purchased with the savings of the whole clan.

If he can successfully build the foundation, then the Zhou family will not only have one more foundation building period monk, but also one more rare third-order array mage, and the strength of the entire Zhou family will double at that time.

It's a pity he failed!

His failure this time not only caused the Zhou family to waste an incomparably valuable "Zhuji Dan", but also caused his Dao heart to be dusted, and he never had the chance to break through to the third-order array mage again, and spent the rest of his life working hard to repay the family debts, and he didn't even have a descendant.

"Your grandfather is only three years older than the old man, and with his cultivation of Qi Cultivation and Great Perfection, he should have been able to survive for a few more years, but unfortunately, after knowing that the family was going to develop the Red Flame Iron Mine, he resolutely gambled all his Shouyuan to forcibly impact the third-order array mage realm, wanting to leave a third-order formation and a third-order formation mage inheritance for the family!"

Outside the ancestral hall, when Zhou Yang came out after worshipping the deceased old man Zhou Qian, he happened to see the old man Zhou Quan's eyes were red, and then he heard the old man's voice hoarse and said the reason for the death of the old man Zhou Qian.

Zhou Yang was originally not very impressed by this grandfather, because this grandfather was not like Old Man Zhou Quan or Old Man Zhou Yun, who often appeared in front of the juniors of the family and taught the juniors to practice.

Count carefully, in the past twenty-two years, he has seen this grandfather more times, I am afraid it is less than five times, and every time he meets is at some important family gatherings, and the meeting is just to obey the instructions of his parents to bow up, and the intersection between the two is really rare.

But now, after hearing the old man Zhou Quan talk about the reason for the death of this grandfather, he was in awe, and he had great admiration for this old man who had been dedicating himself behind the scenes in obscurity.

Then he looked at the old man Zhou Quan, whose eyes were red and seemed to be crying, and comforted him in a low tone: "Third grandfather's Day mourning, although the eldest grandfather has passed away, but his old man's meritorious contributions to the family will always be remembered in the hearts of the living!"

He didn't ask Old Man Zhou Qian if he had succeeded, because it didn't matter anymore.

Many people tend to focus only on the outcome, but don't know that the process is sometimes more important than the outcome.

If Old Man Zhou Qian hadn't made up his mind to impact the third-order array mage realm, how could there be results?

So sometimes the result is not important, the important thing is to have a heart to achieve the result!
