Zhou Xuanyu quickly sat down.

She didn't have much longevity in the first place, and she was able to support it until now, and it can even be said that it is all supported by a faith.

And after returning to Zhou's house and returning to Yuquan Peak, where she was born and raised, this belief that supported her to continue to live had no soil for survival.

Later, after learning from Zhou Yang's mouth about the changes that have taken place in the Zhou family over the years, and knowing that everything in the Zhou family is now beyond imagination, she has made up her wish, and she has no more worries.

So less than three months after returning to the Yuquan Lake Oasis, she sat on the Yuquan Peak with a smile and a peaceful face.

Because she had already been declared a dead person in the Zhou family, after Zhou Xuanyu sat down, Zhou Yang and Zhou Yuanyao could not hold any mourning activities for her, let alone invite various forces to send people to mourn like Zhou Xuanhao's death.

In the end, she could only follow her last wish, and Zhou Yang used the "Qianyang True Fire" to turn her body into ashes and bring her back to Chihu Mountain, and buried it next to the cemetery of the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, so that the two ancestors and grandchildren who had been separated for decades could always be together under the Nine Springs.

After dealing with Zhou Xuanyu's aftermath, Zhou Yang's life returned to normal.

Most of the time, he is used to retreat and improve his cultivation, and the rest of the time, he is either used to accompany the Taoist companion Xiao Ying, or to refine weapons, make talismans and practice swords, and his life is easy and happy.

During this period, he also studied the white orb that was suspected to be the "Eye of Light", but no matter how he tried, he couldn't refine this treasure, so he couldn't use it.

This made him admire Xu Song's old ghost's eyesight even more, and after just a few glances, he judged that this thing must master the power of the light attribute before it can be used for sacrifice.

Another thing that made Zhou Yang feel happy was that after nearly 80 years of practice, Zhou Yuanyao finally transformed his love for him as a girl into family affection between brothers and sisters, and was no longer hostile to Xiao Ying.

Even because she was trapped in the underground ruins for nearly 80 years and almost forgot about alchemy, she also took the initiative to ask Xiao Ying for alchemy, wanting to inherit Zhou Xuanhao's original position and contribute to the Zhou family's alchemy cause.

Of course, Zhou Yang was happy to see this, and at the same time, he couldn't help but sigh that the power of time was really strong.

Zhou Yuanyao, a girl who was so willful at the beginning, was also smoothed out by the years and succumbed to reality after being trapped in a place for nearly 80 years.

This may have something to do with Zhou Xuanyu's decades-long teachings, but no one can deny the importance of the power of time.

If it weren't for decades of calm thinking and seeing the truth clearly, Zhou Yuanyao would probably still regard Zhou Yang's family care for him like a sister as an expression of love between men and women.

In this way, the good time is another twelve years in the blink of an eye.

Twelve years have passed, and Zhou Yang's cultivation is still the fifth layer of the Purple Mansion, and it is not far from the sixth layer of the Purple Mansion.

However, during this period of time, he finally understood the second advanced sword formation in the "Great Yan Sword Technique", the "Twelve Yuanchen Sword Formation", and let his sword art rise to a higher level again.

At the same time, his talisman making skills were also successfully promoted to the fourth order after years of hard work, becoming the first fourth-order talisman master in the history of the Zhou family.

There is also good news that half a year ago, his spirit pet Golden-winged Thunder Eagle also fell into a deep sleep, if there is no accident, when he wakes up, he will officially enter adulthood, condensing the demon pill and becoming a fourth-order demon beast.

These are just the changes that have occurred in and around Zhou Yang.

As far as the Zhou family is concerned, twelve years have passed, and the Zhou family has added two new foundation building period monks, one of whom is Zhou Yang's eldest apprentice Lu Xuewei.

Lu Xuewei, who has the qualification of a high-grade spiritual root, easily succeeded in building a foundation after taking a foundation building pill, and her age when she built the foundation was the same as Zhou Yang, who was thirty-four years old, and after she successfully built the foundation, she quickly became a third-order low-grade talisman maker.

As for the other foundation building monk, named Zhou Tongyao, his parents were both ninth-level Qi cultivation monks of the Zhou family, and because he had a good formation talent, he was successfully selected into the Zhou family's "seed plan".

He was able to build a foundation successfully by relying on the family contribution points inherited from his parents, and then by virtue of his status as a member of the "Seed Project", he exchanged 10,000 family contribution points for half price for Tsukidan.

In fact, over the years, of course, it is not only Lu Xuewei and Zhou Tongyao who have used Tsukidan, but also a monk of the Zhou family who has exchanged it for Tsukidan.

Unfortunately, even with Tsukidan's help, the man ultimately failed.

At the beginning, Xiao Ying listened to Zhou Yang's words and practiced two furnaces of Zhuji Dan, and a total of nine Dan pieces were produced.

As a result, the Fang Market auction removed two pieces, rewarded Huang Yi with one, Liu Xuanxuan used two pieces to build the foundation, plus the three pieces used by Lu Xuewei and the others, and now there is only one one left in the Zhuji Dan in his hand.

In this way, counting the two people who have newly built the foundation, the Zhou family currently has as many as seven monks in the foundation building alone, including Zhou Guangxiang, Zhou Guangxiang, Zhou Yuanyao, Zhou Guangtai, Zhou Guangqing, Liu Xuanxuan, and Lu Xuewei.

One door is a double purple mansion, and seven foundations are built.

This kind of force has not appeared for the third time in this boundless sand sea cultivation immortal realm, except for the original Chen family, in a thousand years.

What's more, in addition to the strength of these monks, the Zhou family also has a fourth-order low-grade spirit beast Eagle Lion Beast, a Golden-winged Thunder Eagle who is about to be promoted to a fourth-order demon beast, and a third-order middle-grade demon beast Flying Heavenly Leopard.

Combined, in addition to the fact that the number of monks in the foundation building period is not as good as Huangshamen, the high-end strength is not inferior to Huangshamen, the ruler of the boundless sand sea cultivation immortal realm.

Now when the monks of the Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm mentioned the Zhou family, no one was not envious, and no one was not in awe.

And it only took more than a hundred years to lead the Zhou family from a family whose inheritance was almost severed to such a prominent position today, and Zhou Yang has become a legendary figure in the hearts of the entire Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm cultivators.

The current younger generation of monks in the Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm may not know the name of Cao Wenjin, the last Jindan stage monk in the Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm, but they will definitely not have heard of the name of Zhou Yang of the Zhou family.

Giving birth to a son should be like Zhou Yuanyang, this has become a word that is often on the lips of the elders in the immortal cultivation family.

"Look at Zhou Yuanyang, who is also a middle-grade spiritual root monk, but he successfully built a foundation at the age of thirty-four, and you are also a middle-grade spiritual root monk, why don't you seem to be learning?"

"Son, you have to fight for some energy, for your father, I don't want you to be able to do Zhou Yuanyang's level, but you must build a foundation to successfully continue our family's inheritance!"

"Rebel, you know that you are eighteen years old, and Zhou Yuanyang has already gone out to practice and take charge of himself at your age, are you going to be angry with Lao Tzu?"

......

When a person becomes a legend by all mouths, his fart is fragrant.

How Zhou Yang succeeded, nine out of ten people will not know, they will only try their best to inquire about Zhou Yang's deeds when he was a teenager, inquire about Zhou Yang's life, and then let their descendants learn to follow suit.

It seems that in this way, they can really let their descendants become the next Zhou Yang.

Of course, Zhou Yang didn't know about these things.

In the past 12 years, he has lived in a simple place and devoted himself to cultivation, except for sometimes participating in the annual preaching and Dharma meeting to teach the Tao to the younger generations of the family to solve doubts, very few children of the Zhou family who have built a foundation and cultivated can see him, let alone outsiders.

If it weren't for Zhou Guangxiang's sudden visit and his statement that he wanted to attack the Purple Mansion again, he might not have realized that so many years had passed.

"Rush to the level with peace of mind, don't have any psychological pressure, even if you fail, the Zhou family still has the ninth uncle I am!"

In the Qianyang Cave, after Zhou Yang handed over the incomparably precious "Purple Heart Chalcedony" to Zhou Guangxiang, he saw a nervous look on his face, and couldn't help but smile and comfort this nephew.

As he said, even if Zhou Guangxiang failed to attack the Purple Mansion again, the Zhou family would still have him, the Dinghai God Needle.

As long as he doesn't die for a day, the status of the Zhou family will be as stable as Mount Tai.

Therefore, he has a very good attitude towards Zhou Guangxiang's impact on the Purple Mansion, of course he is happy for success, and he is a little disappointed at most if he fails.

"Nephew, you must not disappoint Uncle Jiu!"

Zhou Guangxiang nodded, clenched the jade bottle containing the "Purple Heart Chalcedony" in his hand, turned around and left the Qianyang Cave, and returned to his cave to retreat.

Since Zhou Guangxiang has not yet determined the candidate to inherit his position as patriarch, after his retreat, the patriarchal duties of the Zhou family can only continue to be exercised by Zhou Yang.

He took over the duties of the patriarch again, and the first thing he did was, of course, to understand the situation within the clan.

The result made him quite satisfied, in the past ten years, although the growth rate of the Zhou family's monk population has slowed down, but because the number of monks itself is large enough, the number of monks of the Zhou family has now exceeded six hundred, plus those relatives and monks worshipped by the family, the total number is already close to a thousand.

The number of monks has increased, and the spiritual mountains and spiritual mines occupied by the Zhou family have naturally been fully developed, and the financial income has also increased compared to before.

And counting on the fingers, it has been 24 years since the official implementation of the "New Home Plan", and the Zhou family has created nine artificial oases in the boundless sand sea leading to the Rhino Horn Island.

The existence of these nine man-made oases directly pushed the area that the Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Realm cultivators could explore to the depths of the Sand Sea by nearly sixty thousand miles.

Many monks of the Zhou family had entered that area in advance four or five years ago to venture out to explore resources, and had already found several spirit mines and several underground spirit veins.

"Calculate the time, there are still three years before the hands-on time agreed between me and Jiang Yuyan, I don't know how she is preparing?"

"In three years, I should be able to further advance to the sixth layer of the Purple Mansion, and the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle should also be able to advance to the fourth-order demon beast within this time. ”

"In this way, if Guangxiang succeeds in opening up the Purple Mansion again, then our side can participate in the high-level existence, but it will be much stronger than the original plan!"

Zhou Yang counted his own combat power with his fingers, and found that if he didn't count the foundation building period monks, the high-level existence lineup that they went to the Rhino Horn Continent this time would not be much worse than the one that the Huangshamen Organization had at the beginning.

And as far as he knew, there were not many fourth-order demon beasts on the Rhino Horn Continent at all.

"This battle, win it!"

A smile flashed across his face, and his eyes were full of confidence.
