Cheng Ling nodded and said, "Yes, the head of the Zhou family must know the grievances between the Famous Sword Academy and the major forces in the south, if he can find the help of the few people I said, he will definitely be able to eliminate all the major forces!"

"In this way, isn't the Zhou family still a top force in the south?"

Zhou Changtian was dumbfounded, looked at Cheng Ling incredulously, and muttered in his mouth: "Impossible, there are millions of monks from the major forces, how can they be defeated so easily, not to mention that behind them there is the Ouyang family, one of the nine major forces in the Canglan Continent." ”

Cheng Ling sneered and said: "The major forces in the south are already vassals of the Famous Sword Academy, where can their strength be matched. As for the Ouyang family, among the nine major forces, isn't there anyone who can't deal with them?"

Zhou Changtian was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously: "Senior, what do you mean by Feng Yanzong?"

Cheng Ling's heart moved slightly, this Zhou Changtian's cultivation is not high, but he is extremely shrewd. According to Jian Yinghao, the discord between Feng Yanzong and the Ouyang family was not known except for a few high-level officials among the nine major forces, and the rest of the people did not know, and they didn't expect him to know about it.

He said: "Is it Feng Yanzong, this is a pass, and it is not the time to say it clearly, so I only ask the head of the Zhou family if he is willing to gamble with him." ”

Zhou Changtian pondered for a long time and asked: "It's not that the old man doesn't know what to do, each of the major forces in the south is a hundred times stronger than my Zhou family, what kind of certainty can the predecessors be able to defeat them?"

Cheng Ling said with a smile: "It's very simple, cultivators, the most fundamental thing is nothing more than the four items of law, couple, wealth, and land. Fa, the Zhou family can stand for 10,000 years, presumably there must naturally be a unique inheritance of exercises, but there are no disciples with excellent qualifications. This point is not difficult to solve, as long as I am given a little time, I can naturally help the Zhou family cultivate several outstanding children. ”

"Couple, with my help, coupled with the power of the Famous Sword Academy, the strength of the Zhou family can make a great leap in a short period of time, and it is not difficult to catch up with the rest of the southern forces. ”

"Cai, the Zhou family is good at making talismans, we can communicate with each other about this, and we can cultivate Dan Dao Grandmasters for you and loot southern resources in large quantities. ”

"At this time, the Zhou family's law, couples, and wealth have all made great progress, so that one advance and one retreat, the rest of the forces and resources have been plundered in large quantities, and it will not take a few years for the strength of the Zhou family to catch up with them. At that time, does the Zhou family master still think that it is not enough to compete?"

Zhou Changtian's mind suddenly brightened, and the beautiful blueprint depicted by Cheng Ling was exactly the path of the strong man he dreamed of. However, he still had scruples in his heart, and asked: "What my predecessor said, it is indeed an excellent method, but the number of my Zhou family is only a thousand, even if there are a few outstanding disciples, in the face of millions of southern power cultivators, how can they resist." ”

"This is very simple, if your Zhou family can have a cultivation blessed land, as long as you launch an attack, you don't need to defend at all, what should you do?"

"But where to find such a blessed land, the general areas with sufficient spiritual sources are all occupied by several major forces, and they can't be snatched by the Zhou family's current strength. ”

"Doesn't your Zhou family have a certain territory outside Xiangcheng, so how should the children of thousands of families be settled?"

Zhou Changtian smiled awkwardly and said: "Outside Xiangcheng, there is indeed a mountain, but the aura of that mountain range is not high, and it is better to be in Xiangcheng." ”

Cheng Ling suddenly, no wonder Zhou Changtian had to stay in Xiangcheng to heal after being injured, originally

It's a matter of Reiki. However, such a thing was simply easy for him, he smiled indifferently and said, "At this point, the Zhou family master does not have to worry, he will naturally help you turn that clan land into a cultivation blessed land." ”

Zhou Changtian's mind flashed with inspiration, and he asked in shock: "Is the senior still good at arranging formations?"

Cheng Ling smiled and said, "I know a little bit about it!"

Zhou Changtian frowned, and he paced back and forth in the guest room, and after a long time, he said categorically: "Senior, my Zhou family has been suppressed by several major forces for tens of thousands of years, and now it is declining, and we will definitely not let go of this opportunity to regain our prestige, we will do this thing!"

After finishing speaking, it was as if I had made some kind of determination, and my mood felt much more relaxed.

Zhou Zhiyuan stood beside him, also with a resolute look on his face. He has never been angry with the Ouyang family for being aggressive, but his father has always advised him to be patient, and he does not have enough strength not to conflict with the Ouyang family.

This time, I saw that my father was killed by the Ouyang family and almost died, where can I still endure it. Now in the face of the blueprint for the rise drawn by Cheng Ling, he dare not let it go easily.

Cheng Ling smiled and said, "Okay, since the head of the Zhou family has such ambitions, I will help you in the future." Now, let's plan how to act. ”

The two fathers and sons looked happy, bowed down and said, "But please ask the seniors to command!"

Cheng Ling said slowly: "First of all, I want to go to the mountain where the Zhou family master said, where I want to set up a few formations, so that you have no worries." Secondly, I have a few pills here, which are just right for the Zhou family master to cultivate and improve his cultivation, and I think the Zhou family master will make the best use of the rest. ”

Zhou Changtian took the pill handed over by Cheng Ling, opened it, and said in shock: "Spirit Void Pill, Destruction Pill, and one pill is full of Dao rhyme, I don't know what kind of pill?"

"That's the Little Enlightenment Dao Pill, which can help you comprehend the Heavenly Dao and break through the shackles of the Tribulation Period!"

Zhou Changtian was overjoyed and said, "This ....... This....... , The kindness of the predecessors to the Zhou family is really unforgettable, could it be that you are the Grandmaster of the Eight Rank Dan Dao?"

Cheng Ling smiled and did not answer positively, but said: "My Dan Dao grade, the Zhou family master doesn't need to know, as long as he knows that these pills are the key to opening the way for the Zhou family to rise." ”

Zhou Changtian took a deep breath, bowed to Cheng Ling and said: "The kindness of the predecessors to the Zhou family is unforgettable, if it can really become the top force in the south, the Zhou family will definitely look forward to the predecessors in the future." ”

"Okay, then let's see where we go from here. It's late today, how about tomorrow the head of the Zhou family will lead me to the mountain where the family is located?"

"Obey the orders of your predecessors!"

At this point, the conversation between the two ended, and Zhou Changtian left the guest room with Zhou Zhiyuan. On the way back, Zhou Zhiyuan asked, "Dad, have you really decided to be the enemy of the forces in the south?"

Zhou Changtian took a deep breath, looked up at the starry sky, and said softly: "Zhiyuan, that senior has such a cultivation at a young age, and he is proficient in both the Dan Dao and the Array Dao, such an opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. My Zhou family, with the help of this person, I will definitely be able to restore the glory of the past, remember, when the opportunity comes, we must grasp it well, and we must not let it slip away easily!"

Zhou Zhiyuan nodded silently, and at the same time there was a hint of war intent in his eyes, the revival of the family is at this moment!

The next day, Zhou Changtian came to Cheng early

Outside Ling's guest room, after he got up to freshen up, he took him to the hill outside the city. There were also Fu Bo, Zhou Zhiyuan, and Zhou Qi.

With the Spirit Void Pill given by Cheng Ling, in just one night, the cultivation was restored to the late stage of the merger. Along the way, he was very respectful to Cheng Ling, and explained to him the major forces in the southern region.

At this time, Cheng Ling knew that there were not only the seven major forces in the southern region, but also many small and medium-sized families and sects, and there were thousands of them. Among these forces, the Zhou family can only be ranked last, and the suppression of local forces by southern monks for tens of thousands of years can be regarded as reaching the limit.

From his mouth, Cheng Ling also knew that the Ouyang family was not a native of the south, but migrated from the central region of the Canglan Continent to the south ten thousand years ago, relying on the large number of family monks, wantonly looted the resources of the south, and after ten thousand years of accumulation, it reached its current situation.

It can be seen that among the nine major forces, the Ouyang family has the shallowest background, no wonder it has always been at the bottom, and when it encounters Feng Yanzong, it can only rely on its snort. If it weren't for the latter's own existence of a small heavenly domain, it would have been destroyed long ago.

However, the successive heads of the Ouyang family were all scheming and calculating, and they were suppressed by Feng Yanzong, so they found another way, cultivated a large number of tentacle families, and developed various auxiliary means to consolidate the family resource base and forcefully suppress the local forces in the south.

Talking all the way, it took half a day, and everyone came to the clan land.

Cheng Ling raised his eyes and saw in front of him a deep valley surrounded by mountains on three sides, several towering mountains surrounded a deep valley with a radius of thousands of miles, and only a wide road in the front direction led directly to the outside of the mountain, which was much worse than the small hill he imagined.

Zhou Changtian explained: "In the southern region, there are many mountain ranges, and because of the sparse population, the Zhou family can have such a piece of their own clan land. This is still the result of being strongly compressed in recent centuries, if it is in its heyday, the mountains within a radius of thousands of miles are the territory of the Zhou family. ”

Cheng Ling nodded with satisfaction, such an area is not big or small, and it is suitable for arranging the formation. However, the aura in the valley is not strong, and the rest of the forces must not be able to look down on it, which is why the Zhou family occupies such a mountain area.

However, this point is not difficult to solve, the Chongling Mountains in the south are all over the place, and there must be enough spiritual veins under the ground, as long as you search for it yourself and carry a few spiritual veins into the bottom of the valley, the spiritual energy concentration here will soon increase.

He stopped outside the mountain gate for a long time, secretly remembering the distribution of these mountain ranges and preparing for the future formation. Zhou Changtian stood beside him, not daring to disturb easily, and after a while, he saw Cheng Ling retract his gaze before he said, "Senior, the old man will take you to the cave first!"

"Oh, and my cave here?"

Zhou Changtian said: "Last night, I had a good conversation with my seniors, and the old man instructed the disciples of the clan to build a cave for my seniors overnight. ”

Cheng Ling nodded silently, and as he walked towards the deepest part of the valley, soon everyone came to the entrance of a cave. The entrance of the cave is not large, and the outside is densely covered by rattan plants, and when you enter the cave, you have all the equipment inside.

Cheng Ling nodded in satisfaction and was about to speak, but saw that Zhou Changtian was still leading him towards the depths of the cave. He hesitated, then followed. After walking for a while, the light in front of me was bright, and when I looked up, there was another exit in front of me.
