After twelve years, when Zhou Chun returned to the Yu Kingdom, he immediately discovered some differences.
When he left before, it is not an exaggeration to say that it was difficult to find people in the Yu Kingdom. It might be necessary to fly hundreds or thousands of miles to see a few immortal cultivators.
But when Zhou Chun came back this time, he found that the number of active immortal cultivators in the Yu Kingdom was much higher than before.
He flew over the sky above the blue sky, overlooking the land thousands of miles away. In many places, he could see the spiritual light that erupted when the immortal cultivators cast spells and activated their magic weapons. Some foundation-building monks and even purple-level monks could also be seen flying by in the sky.
figure.
Since Zhou Chun went straight to Kunwu Mountain, the monks operating in this land were unlikely to be monks from the Jinyue Sect or the Qingyun Sect.
But it seemed that those people were not monks from the Zhou family.
Therefore, there is a high probability that they are all monks from the outside world who came to Yu Kingdom for adventure.
"It seems that the plan I told my uncle before has worked, but I don't know how effective it is!"
Zhou Chun's eyes flashed, and he probably understood what was going on.
Before he left, he discussed with fellow Taoist Zhou how to attract foreign monks to the Yu Kingdom.
Because the Yu Kingdom is vast in area and borders other foreign tribes in the Tianman Plain, it is impossible to control the monsters in most areas of the country solely by relying on the Zhou family, the Jin Yue Sect, the Qingyun Sect, and their vassal forces.
All the beasts have been wiped out.
Therefore, we can only introduce a large number of foreign monks to come here to search for treasures, help eliminate and hunt those monsters, and truly clean up a human paradise that is enough for ordinary mortals to settle down and survive!
Zhou Chun's suggestion at the time was to set an example and arrange for people to go to neighboring countries to preach that the Yu Kingdom was rich and full of gold, and then ask some bribed monks to show up and explain how they could easily find the extremely precious thousand-year-old elixir in the Yu Kingdom.
.
In this way, as long as there are enough people who advocate it, and it is indeed easier for Yu State to harvest some rare spiritual objects than other countries, there will naturally be no need to worry about no immortal cultivators coming to take risks.
Obviously, judging from the situation where cultivators can be seen everywhere in Yu State, this plan should be very successful.
Not long after, Zhou Chun returned to Kunwu Mountain.
On Kunwu Mountain, the scenery remains the same, not much different from when Zhou Chun left.
As soon as he came back, several spiritual pets who had stayed here showed up to greet him.
"Congratulations, master, for your great improvement in cultivation and your successful breakthrough!"
Lord Silver Dragon transformed into a young man in silver armor and soared into the sky, saluting and congratulating Zhou Chun with a beaming face.
After being promoted to the Demon King for hundreds of years, he has become very skilled in the art of transformation. Now that he has transformed into a human form, he is more like a human than some fifth-level mid-level demon kings.
After all, his bloodline is extraordinary, so he is not comparable to ordinary demon kings in this aspect, and he is willing to work hard to practice in this area, unlike most demon kings who just deal with it casually.
And just after Lord Silver Dragon, Lord Fushan also appeared in mid-air in the form of a burly man wearing tortoise shell, and also congratulated Zhou Chun in a muffled voice.
Looking at these two old friends whom he had not seen for more than ten years, Zhou Chun was also in a very happy mood and smiled repeatedly: "Okay, okay, you all seem to be recovering well, so I'm relieved."
At the same time, due to the sudden appearance of Silver Dragon Lord and Negative Mountain Lord, many Zhou family monks inside the mountain gate also spotted Zhou Chun.
Soon Zhou Mingde, who was staying inside the mountain gate, also greeted him and asked him to come over and talk.
Zhou Chun also took advantage of the situation and left everyone's sight, arriving outside Zhou Mingde's cave.
"Hahaha, as expected, I knew that you, Zhengchun, would definitely succeed, as expected!"
Outside the cave, looking at the master and servant Zhou Chun who came over, Zhou Mingde also smiled happily and congratulated him.
For hundreds of years, Zhou Chun's cultivation has been vigorous and diligent, and he has never been stuck in a certain state for a long time.
Therefore, elders like Zhou Mingde have formed an inexplicable confidence in him. As long as he wants to do something, they all believe that he will succeed!
Zhou Chun was also a little bit dumbfounded by this, but he also knew that there was no need to explain anything more. He could only maintain his modest persona, waved his hands and said: "Old Ancestor is so complimentary. I can successfully break through the realm this time, all thanks to
The opportunity given by Senior Tai Geng God, otherwise I would not have been able to break through just by relying on myself!"
"Haha, it's only because of your outstanding performance that Zhengchun can be valued by Senior Tai Geng. Others don't have that kind of luck and ability!"
Zhou Mingde laughed and said with a proud look.
Being able to have a relationship with a venerable person in the form of a god and receive the protection of a venerable person in the form of a god is something Zhou Mingde never dared to dream about before.
Even after Zhou Chun gave birth to a baby, he never dared to think of such a good thing.
But now, this kind of good thing has indeed happened to the Zhou family, which makes him smile proudly every time he thinks about it.
As the founder of the Zhou family today, he has no regrets in his life as he has been able to witness the Zhou family come to this point and achieve today's achievements!
"Why can't I see my uncle? Where did he go?"
Zhou Chun didn't want to talk about these insignificant things, so he immediately changed the subject and asked about Zhou Daoyi's whereabouts.
Zhou Daoyi was obviously not inside the mountain gate, otherwise he would have come out to congratulate him on such a big event that he successfully returned from the border.
After listening to his words, Zhou Mingde immediately replied: "Dao Yi, he was invited to a sect in Hengguo to attend a celebration. By the way, he planned to visit the ordinary people in the family. He should be able to come back in the next few days.
Already."
"That's it. Does the ancestor know where Yu Zhen, Xin Yuan, mother and son have gone? The younger generation's current connection with Lu Yuanjun is a little weak. I'm afraid the place they went to is not close!"
Zhou Chun nodded, but then asked about the whereabouts of his wife and children.
After hearing what he said, Zhou Mingde immediately replied again: "Three years ago, after Ying'er completed the secret method, he entered Zhengchun's cave to retreat, so Yu Zhen and Lu Yuanjun also brought the newly broken through
In the middle stage of foundation building, Xin Yuan left the Yu Kingdom and traveled to the world of heaven, spirit and earth."
"Oh, did you go to the world of heaven, spirit and earth? No wonder the connection between Lu Yuanjun and I is so weak!"
Zhou Chun nodded with a sudden look on his face and no longer worried about this matter.
Lu Yuanjun's current strength is not what it used to be.
With two fifth-level [Tianmu Dao Weapons] in his possession, even if he encounters a mid-level Nascent Soul monk or a fifth-level mid-level demon king, he will not be weak at all.
What's more, his ability to escape has already been proven by Blue Dragon King Nu Tao.
Su Yuzhen, mother and son have him following and protecting them, so there is no need to worry about their safety at all.
He immediately nodded and said: "Since Ying'er is now in seclusion and having a baby, I will no longer practice on Kunwu Peak, so I will go to the Xuandan Peak of Fellow Daoist Luo first!"
He is currently in the middle stage of Nascent Soul cultivation. During his cultivation, his demand for the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is quite large.
If you practice on Kunwu Peak, there will be no small movement, and it is likely to disturb Zhou Zhiying who is in seclusion.
So before he came back, even Fushanjun, who had been practicing in the belly of Kunwu Peak Mountain, had temporarily moved to Xuandan Peak where Luo Qingni was to practice.
Of the three spiritual peaks within the Zhou Family Mountain Gate, Kunwu Peak is naturally the main peak, but the spiritual energy concentrations of Xuandan Peak and Changgeng Peak, where the Taigeng God is incarnated, are almost the same.
In the Zhou family's plan, Xuandan Peak is the place for medicinal gardens. Except for Luo Qingni's cave, there are only a few other caves on the mountain. Most of the aura of the entire mountain is actually intended to support a large number of plants planted on the mountain.
Panacea.
It's just that the elixir here has just been planted not long ago, and the demand for spiritual energy is still very low. Zhou Chun coming here to practice will not have any impact.
If the mountains are planted with various thousand-year-old elixirs or even thousand-year-old treasures, the demand for spiritual energy will be great. Two Nascent Soul Stage monks practicing on the mountain will seize the spiritual energy of these elixirs, which will affect their growth and survival.
Very disadvantageous.
Zhou Chun came to Xuandan Peak and wanted to meet Luo Qingni, but unfortunately, Luo Qingni had already gone into seclusion to practice.
Therefore, he could only choose a cave in the mountain to stay temporarily, and by the way, he also explained to Negative Mountain Lord about the search for the Nine-Blade Barbarian Saint.
The best candidate for this matter is actually Lu Yuanjun.
But now that Lord Lu Yuan has gone to the realm of heaven, spirit and earth to protect Su Yuzhen and her son, he can only let Lord Fu Shan take his place.
When Zhou Chun has his free time, he should go to the areas where the three major alien races are located to see if he can discover anything.
A few days later, Zhou Daoyi also returned from Hengguo.
After he came back, he was very happy to know that Zhou Chun had successfully returned from breaking through the border, and he was very happy to send congratulations to Zhou Chun.
Later, when the two of them talked about the changes in the family over the past ten years, he also said with a smile on his face: "Zhengchun, the proposal you made before has been very effective after being implemented. Now we only have access to and from Kunwufang City every month."
The number of monks has reached hundreds, and Jin Yue Sect and Qingyun Sect even want to follow the example of our Zhou family and build a market on their territory!"
When Zhou Chun heard this, he immediately smiled and said: "This is a good thing. They want to build a city. Our Zhou family strongly supports it and can even help them to increase their popularity."
"Yes, I think so too. If Yu State wants to truly develop, it must have cities and strongholds scattered everywhere."
Zhou Daoyi nodded repeatedly, fully agreeing with Zhou Chun's statement.
Then he sighed with emotion: "It's a pity that the previous war really dealt a huge blow to the world of immortal cultivation in the surrounding countries. Too many middle- and low-level monks were killed and injured. As a result, all countries are now recovering, and many middle-level monks are recovering.
Because the competition in their own country is not fierce, the low-level monks don’t want to take risks in Yu Country!”
"Let's do it step by step. Let's clean the house first. Then there will be no shortage of people with vision and courage to come and move in!"
Zhou Chun said calmly, not caring about it.
The Zhou family now has plenty of resources, and the family momentum is booming. There is really no need to rush to achieve anything.
In Zhou Chun's view, within a thousand years, if the Yu State can have 70% of the original population of the Jing State, it will be regarded as reaching the standard.
So he was not in a hurry.
Of course, for Zhou Daoyi, who does not have a long life span, it is understandable that he is a little regretful and anxious.
"By the way, Qingqing is not too repelled by the thunder dragon. He has already mated several times. He just wants to lay dragon eggs. He doesn't know how long he will have to wait."
"And Ying'er's Tianfeng Thunder Eagle has also mated with a [Golden Crowned Black Roc] several times, but there are no results yet."
As if he suddenly remembered something important, Zhou Daoyi quickly told Zhou Chun two pieces of good news that were quite gratifying.
When Zhou Chun heard this, he nodded slightly and said: "This is indeed good news. I hope they can all have good results!"
"It's hard to say what their outcome will be, but my great-uncle's [Vulcan Jackal] has successfully bred with the third-level wolf monster [Red-Eyed Flame Wolf] bred by a descendant, causing it to give birth to a child.
The hybrid jackal, judging by its bloodline, must be a high-level monster!"
Zhou Daoyi smiled slightly and said another related thing.
Zhou Chun couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "With the result so quickly, [Vulcan Jackal] must be considered strong and strong!"
After saying that, he and Zhou Daoyi laughed together.
After chatting about some family-related matters, Zhou Daoyi left Xuandan Peak, and Zhou Chun also calmed down and started a new round of practice.
Although he lost the opportunity to practice in the Wanren Sword Cave, it did not mean that he could not continue to improve bravely and diligently.
After all, he still has four Demon King Great Pills and five [Hunyuan Xuanzhen Pills] in his hand.
However, he was not in a hurry to take those elixirs. Instead, he first took out the fifth-level high-grade spiritual fruit [Jiuhua Immortal Plum] given by Lord Tai Geng as a reward.
This fruit is produced by a spiritual root in the Changchun Venerable Cave. It is said that it only matures once every thousand years, and the number of fruits it bears does not exceed two palms each time. Needless to say, it is precious!
Even if a monk in the middle stage of Nascent Soul swallows one [Nine-Hua Immortal Plum], he can save hundreds of years of hard work in meditation.
Zhou Chun had not taken this medicine before because he was afraid of wasting the power of the medicine.
Now that his cultivation has reached the middle stage of Nascent Soul, it is the best time to take and refine this substance.
He took out the jade box that sealed the treasure, opened it, opened his mouth slightly, and the fist-sized golden spirit fruit in the jade box flew into his mouth.
As soon as he took a bite, the fruit turned into a fragrant and sweet spiritual liquid and poured into his stomach.
Immediately, an ecstatic feeling of satisfaction filled Zhou Chun's body. He felt as if he was really going to become an immortal, and his whole body felt indescribably comfortable.
The word "Xian" in [Jiuhua Xianli] is really not chosen casually.
After quietly experiencing and enjoying the feeling for a moment, Zhou Chun began to meditate and refine the pure spiritual power contained in the spiritual liquid in his body.
While he was meditating, the spiritual energy from the surrounding world also surged towards him.
Luo Qingni, who was in seclusion deep in the cave, seemed to be aware of such a big movement. He couldn't help but slightly opened his beautiful eyes, and then saw her smile slightly, and continued to focus on his practice.
