Chapter 363: Welcoming Elder Taishang Back to the Mountain [One Watch]
Phew, after seventeen years away from home, I'm finally back!"
In the vast sea of sand, Zhou Yang, who had just left the range of the snow peak of the Broken Cloud Mountain Range, stood on the flying boat and looked at the endless yellow sand in front of him, only feeling extremely kind.
The so-called golden nest and silver nest are not as good as their own kennels.
No matter how good Liuyun Continent's immortal cultivation realm is, he is also an outsider there, and his actions are controlled by others, and he is not happy.
And in this boundless sand sea cultivation immortal realm, he is one of those people at the top of the pyramid, and he is the same.
Rather be the head of the chicken than the tail of the phoenix, this is also what Zhou Yang has always thought.
Speaking of which, this trip home is very smooth, the "Phantom Cloud Boat" and the "Hidden Spirit Incense" travel through the cloud and mist areas of the Broken Cloud Mountain Range, as long as it is not a chance to pass by with the fourth-order demon beast, there is basically no possibility of being discovered.
Zhou Yang did not hesitate to exchange for this magic weapon, and he was really right.
"Let's go, let's go back to Chihu Mountain first, and I have been away from home for more than ten years, and I don't know how my Zhou family has developed under the leadership of Guangxiang. ”
The straight-line distance between Chihu Mountain and the Broken Cloud Mountain Range is less than 10,000 miles, and although the location of Zhou Yang and their exit from the Broken Cloud Mountain Range is not on this straight line, they can't go far away, just a few hours have passed, and the green Chihu Mountain Oasis has appeared in sight.
Wanting to test the vigilance of the family monks, Zhou Yang just turned the "Phantom Cloud Boat" into a white cloud and hid it in the clouds in the sky after seeing the Chihu Mountain Oasis, and then released the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle to release a hostile momentum and flew towards the Chihu Mountain Oasis.
This golden-winged thunder eagle was hatched by him in the Liuyun Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm, even Zhou Guangxiang didn't know that he had this pet, and with his third-order high-grade demon beast cultivation, he wouldn't let Zhou Guangxiang send a warning signal to Huangshamen for help, so as not to make a fuss.
Because there was a precedent for the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle to attack the Chihu Mountain Oasis, when the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle, which exuded strong hostility, appeared in the sky above the Chihu Mountain Oasis, it was first discovered by the garrison monks arranged by the Zhou family on the borders of the oasis, and then these garrison monks hurriedly lit a special wolf smoke to report to Chihu Mountain.
This special wolf smoke is red, yellow and blue, indicating that there is a third-order high-grade flying demon beast invading the oasis, once the wolf smoke rises, it can be seen within hundreds of miles, and after the Zhou family monk in the rear finds out, he will naturally immediately follow the lighting of the wolf smoke to warn the rear.
"Yes, yes, the Lingshan outpost has been established to the edge of the oasis, it seems that the family's financial income over the years should be quite considerable, otherwise Guangxiang would not have spent the Lingshi in this regard. ”
In the sky, Zhou Yang looked at the beacon fire in the sky, and smiled slightly, quite satisfied.
This is not the first thing to establish an artificial spiritual vein at the border of the oasis and send monks to garrison, Zhou Yang went to the Baisha River Oasis for the first time, and rested on one such spiritual mountain for a night, and was also extorted a spirit stone by Chen Fangping, the son of Chen Ping'an of the Chen family.
After the Zhou family obtained such a large oasis as the Chihu Mountain Oasis, for the sake of the family's long-term consideration, of course, they also formulated a development plan to establish a border Lingshan outpost.
However, when Zhou Yang left, he took away seventy or eighty percent of the Zhou family's inventory of reserve spirit stones, this plan should be postponed for a long time before it can be implemented, but I didn't expect that it has been implemented now, which undoubtedly shows that the Zhou family's financial income must have increased greatly over the years.
And as the wolf smoke spread throughout the oasis, the Zhou family monks and mortals on the oasis immediately acted according to the two sets of plans.
Those immortal cultivators saw the wolf smoke, except for the low-level monks who sat in command of mortal towns and needed to command mortals and could not move without permission, the rest of the Zhou family monks and the vassal Zhou family monks all converged towards the nearest spiritual mountain, preparing to rely on the spiritual mountain guardian formation to resist the attack of demon beasts.
And the mortals in those mortal towns quickly retreated into the underground safety cave under the organization of the official personnel of the City Lord's Mansion.
These two different sets of action plans were determined when Zhou Yang was still there.
He now sees that everything is going according to the plan he had made at the beginning, and a sense of satisfaction arises in his heart.
"Yes, yes, Guangxiang seems to have put in some hard work over the years, and he can make these mortals adapt to this plan so quickly, and there must be no shortage of various anti-monster attack drills at ordinary times. ”
After he condescendingly looked at the Zhou family monks and mortals below and commented on the movements, the people had already followed the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle into the oasis for thousands of miles.
At this time, Zhou Guangxiang and other foundation building monks on Red Tiger Mountain rode the two third-order demon beasts of the Eagle Lion Beast and the Flying Heavenly Leopard to intercept them halfway.
When Zhou Yang left, the Zhou family only had Zhou Xuanhao, Zhou Guangxiang, and Zhou Guangxiang, three foundation building monks of their own family, and the rest such as Huang Yi and Ma Shaoyang were just vassals.
But now the Zhou family foundation building monks on the backs of the two third-order demon beasts have one more Zhou Guangtai in addition to Zhou Guangxiang and his wife.
And according to the plan formulated by Zhou Yang at the beginning, if a third-order high-grade demon beast attacks the oasis, there must be a foundation building monk on the Red Tiger Mountain of the Zhou family to control the formation.
In other words, if Zhou Guangxiang hadn't changed his plan to deal with the enemy, in the seventeen years since he left, in addition to the former security elder Zhou Guangtai, a newly promoted foundation-building monk, the Zhou family would have other people to build the foundation.
After discovering this, while Zhou Yang was happy, he couldn't help but show a trace of worry in his eyes.
"When I left, I gave Guangxiang four Zhuji Dan, and only seventeen years have passed, and the Zhou family has produced two Zhuji monks, so he won't change the exchange standard!"
20,000 family contribution points to exchange for a Tsukidan, this is the clan rule he set, if Zhou Guangxiang takes advantage of him to leave the family to change this clan rule, then he will really be disappointed in this heir.
It's not that the clan rules can't be changed, after all, when he himself was the patriarch, he changed the clan rules more than once.
But in Zhou Yang's opinion, the clan rule he set was relatively a clan rule that took care of the monks in the clan before he came back.
Zhou Guangxiang didn't have the ability to anticipate things like a god, knowing that he would come back with more than a dozen fourth-order demon pills and the "Ning Yuan Fruit" tree, in this case, if he changed this family rule without permission, he would be joking with the family's inheritance.
"Let's take a look and see how effective they are!"
Suppressing the displeasure in his heart, Zhou Yang secretly gave the golden-winged thunder eagle an attack order, and the golden bird launched a fierce attack with a roar.
The combat power of the third-order high-grade golden-winged thunder eagle can be fought by a monk in the early stage of the Purple Mansion, not to mention that Zhou Yang, the golden-winged thunder eagle, has also taken the "Enlightenment Pill" and the heart of a brute beast, awakening the bloodline of a barbarian bird.
As soon as its wings fanned, there were pale golden thunderbolts slashing towards the three people and two beasts on the opposite side, these pale golden thunders were extremely powerful, and the flying divine leopard who had just been promoted to a third-order demon beast screamed and fell to the ground, and the distressed Zhou Guangxiang almost didn't shed tears.
The Eagle Lion Beast, which is also a third-order high-grade demon beast, is much better, although it has also burned some feathers by lightning, it is not a big problem.
"The beast is rampant!"
Zhou Guangxiang has been the patriarch for more than ten years, and the majesty of the patriarch has been initially cultivated, at this time, he stood on the back of the eagle lion beast and shouted majestically, pointed his hand at the golden-winged thunder eagle, and an earthy yellow aura fell on the golden-winged thunder eagle.
The Golden-winged Thunder Eagle, which was originally as fast as lightning, was pressed by this earthy yellow aura, and its speed instantly slowed down by two or three percent.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the magic weapons sacrificed by Zhou Guangxiang and the wind and fire breath from the mouth of the eagle lion beast instantly submerged the sky around the golden-winged thunder eagle.
Such a fierce attack, replaced by an ordinary third-order high-grade Golden-winged Thunder Eagle, will be seriously injured if it does not die.
But Zhou Yang's Golden-Winged Thunder Eagle was different, after this Golden-winged Thunder Eagle devoured the heart of the barbarian beast and awakened the bloodline of the barbarian bird, the physical strength was only slightly worse than that of the barbarian bird of the same rank.
The attack of Zhou Guangxiang and others hit it, but it only made it lose some feathers, and it was not even a minor injury.
However, it was completely enraged by the attack of Zhou Guangxiang and the others, and saw that its dark golden eagle eyes flashed with blood, and it was about to display the "berserk" talent it had obtained after awakening the bloodline of the barbarian bird.
Seeing this, Zhou Yang, who was watching the battle in the sky, hurriedly appeared and shouted: "Enough, stop it!"
"Uncle Nine!"
"Elder Taishang!"
The exclamations rang out repeatedly, but it was Zhou Guangxiang and the others who saw Zhou Yang who appeared behind him.
Several people looked at Zhou Yang and his wife in the sky with surprise and joy, and then looked at the golden-winged thunder eagle who put away their hostility and stopped the offensive after hearing Zhou Yang's order, and they didn't understand what was going on just now.
"Okay, don't talk about it, let's send a message to let the clansmen from all over the world return to normal life, and let's go home and talk about it if we have something to say!"
Zhou Yang waved his hand, stopping the words of several junior clansmen who wanted to salute and greet.
Seeing this, the patriarch Zhou Guangxiang immediately sent a summons to the flying sword to explain the situation to the monks left behind on Chihu Mountain and ask them to lift the state of emergency.
Then several people got on Zhou Yang's "Phantom Cloud Boat" and returned to Chihu Mountain with Zhou Yang.
After the "Phantom Cloud Boat" appeared outside the Red Tiger Mountain, Zhou Guangqing, the foundation building monk left behind by the Zhou family, had already opened the mountain protection array and led hundreds of Zhou family members on the Red Tiger Mountain to wait outside the mountain.
"Zhou clansmen, welcome Elder Taishang back to the mountain!"
"Zhou clansmen, welcome Elder Taishang back to the mountain!"
"Zhou clansmen, welcome Elder Taishang back to the mountain!"
Hundreds of Zhou family members, led by family elder Zhou Guangqing, as if they had been trained many times, bent down and saluted to Zhou Yang who had landed, and shouted in unison.
This shout sounded from the Chihu Mountain, and it spread to the entire Chihu Mountain Oasis in less than half a day.
All the members of the Zhou family who heard the news of Zhou Yang's return to the mountain, whether they were monks or mortals, all bent down and bowed in the direction of Chihu Mountain with joy.
After receiving the news, the patriarch of several vassal Zhou family's immortal cultivation families rushed towards Chihu Mountain as soon as possible, for fear that if they were late, they would leave a bad impression on Zhou Yang and the Zhou family.
What's more, after receiving the news, Zhang Yunpeng, the head of Huangshamen, hurriedly sent Zhou Yuanchen to the Chihu Mountain Oasis to inquire about the situation.
