Cultivation Begins From The Desert

Zhou Yang greeted his fifth uncle Zhou Xuanbin, explained the situation, and then came to the ground of the "Haoyang Grotto".

Eight years later, a large number of desert plants have regrown around the sandy **** on the ground. Because of the care of the Zhou family, these plants have grown more lush than before, and there are many more types of plants. Even some mortals have kept animals such as sand chickens, sand antelopes and sand rabbits here.

And not far below the sandy slope, is the Tucheng where the people of the Zhou family lived, and more than 2,000 meters to the west of the Tucheng, is the oasis under construction.

Because the oasis was newly built only a few years ago, there was only a circle of grass tens of meters wide around the desert lake formed by the underground water.

Zhou Yang stood on the sandy **** and looked from afar. Thousands of mortals from the Zhou family were divided into four teams standing on all sides of the lake and lined up in four long dragons. Then the person at the front filled the lake with wooden buckets, and passed them one by one. Water the sand in the hands of the last man.

When a bucket of water is poured on the sandy ground, it can only soak the sandy soil at a depth of half a meter, and the thickness of the sandy soil in the place chosen as the oasis is more than five meters on average.

If only these thousands of people irrigated the sand with such primitive methods, it would be difficult to create an oasis of 100 square meters in one year. This still did not take into account the factors of desert erosion.

So now it was the turn of the cultivators to perform.

Among the first-order spells commonly used by immortal practitioners, there is a small spell called "Gathering Clouds into Rain". As long as this spell is used, even in the hottest part of the boundless sand sea, water can be condensed.

And if this first-order spell is used by the immortal cultivator in the foundation-building period near the sea and the big lake with abundant water vapor, then it can really rain a heavy rain within a few miles as the name of the spell.

The words "big lakes" and desert lakes formed by underground dark rivers are completely irrelevant, and Zhou Xuanyan, a ninth-level qi-cultivating cultivator, cannot be compared to a foundation-building cultivator.

However, as a ninth-level qi cultivator who majored in water-based exercises, he used a second-level high-grade magic weapon "Shuiyunqi" specially used to enhance the power of water-based spells, and after performing the "cloud-gathering rain-turning technique", he fell down. It is also barely able to make a moderate rain fall on one square kilometer of land.

In order to create an oasis as soon as possible, every morning, noon, and evening, Zhou Xuanyan would perform dozens of "cloud-gathering rain spells" to water the land around the desert lake until the mana was exhausted.

Therefore, the sandy land that Zhou Yang sees now being watered by mortals is actually the land that has been watered by Zhou Xuanyan's spell. These mortals are watering now, but it is a small supplement, barely wiping out the desert temperature evaporation. water vapor.

"It's really hard work Aunt Xuanyan. Originally, this kind of trivial thing should be done by the low-level cultivators of the family, but now she is an elder to do this kind of thing.

Zhou Yang couldn't help shaking his head and sighing. In the final analysis, the Zhou family was too weak.

In the eyes of ordinary scattered cultivators, the Zhou family occupies a medium-sized oasis, and the cultivator family with foundation-building cultivators in charge is an existence that they cannot afford to climb.

But in the eyes of those high-level cultivators, a cultivator family like the Zhou family, with only one foundation-building cultivator in charge, belongs to an existence that anyone can step on.

If it is known that the Zhou family now occupies a third-order spiritual vein in addition to the Yuquan Lake Oasis, it will not take a month before other monks at the foundation-building stage will come to the door and force the Zhou family to give up the "Haoyang Grotto" spirit. Veins and Hematite Veins.

If you encounter those ruthless, maybe you will use this as an excuse to take the opportunity to join other foundation-building cultivators or families to directly break the Yuquan Peak Mountain Protection Formation and divide up the entire Zhou family!

This kind of thing hasn't happened before.

To prevent this from happening, only a new foundation-building cultivator appears in the Zhou family.

So now, all the senior members of the Zhou family who know about the "Haoyang Grotto" are secretly looking forward to it, expecting that Zhou Yang, the younger generation who has placed the hope of the whole family, can successfully build the foundation and lead the Zhou family through the difficulties.

Seeing that Zhou Yang did not break through to the ninth level of Qi practice before leaving the customs, Zhou Xuanyan and Zhou Xuantai both felt a pity in their hearts, but also secretly relieved.

Now that Zhou Yang is no longer in seclusion, they don't need to assign one person to protect the Dharma for him every day. If one more person shares the work of creating the oasis, they can relax a lot. Besides, Zhou Yang occasionally takes time to help out.

Creating an oasis is not an overnight thing. Zhou Yang and the others are just laying the foundation first. If they really want to build a large oasis in the "Haoyang Grotto", it will take at least several generations of poor people, and it will take dozens to hundreds of years. to do it.

Therefore, Zhou Yang's main energy after leaving the customs was actually on improving the refining technique.

For more than eight years, he has been focusing on cultivation, and has rarely used weapon refining, and his craftsmanship is somewhat unfamiliar.

However, after all, he still has the foundation. After a few times of refining the tool to get familiar with the feel, he regained his state.

In the battle to exterminate the poisonous fire scorpions, the Zhou family harvested a lot of second-order monster materials, and Zhou Yang, as a second-order middle-grade craftsman, also got a lot of it, and now there is no shortage of crafting materials.

However, it was the first time for him to use the material refining equipment on the monster beast, and it was not a small challenge.

The material on the monster's body is no better than metal ore, and it can be melted into liquid for shaping. When using the material on the monster's body, the type of magic weapon must be determined according to the shape of the material.

For example, the scorpion needle of the poisonous fire scorpion can only be used to refine the flying needle artifact.

If the scorpion needle is melted, the fire poison unique to the poisonous fire scorpion on the scorpion needle will also dissipate, and the material will be useless.

Of course, the monster beast material refiner also has advantages over metal ores, that is, the materials on the monster beast are all refined by the monster's own monster power for many years, not only there are few impurities, but also it is more convenient for the refiner to arrange the law ban in it. After some special monster materials are refined into magical instruments, they will also be accompanied by some kind of magical powers that the monsters mastered during their lifetime.

Because he had never used monster beast materials to refine a weapon, Zhou Yang did not dare to use precious second-order materials to refine a weapon. "There is a lot of storage in the warehouse, and it doesn't hurt to waste it.

Only two scorpion pincers and scorpion needles can be used for refining the first-order poisonous fire scorpion. ".

Compared with the finer "Poison Fire Flying Needle", the thick and bulky "Iron Arm God Hook" is undoubtedly more suitable for novice refining.

This so-called "iron arm hook", in scientific terms, is "exoskeleton armor", which is a mechanical arm.

Zhou Yang took out the scorpion tongs in stock, first shaved off all the air-dried shredded meat remaining inside the scorpion tongs, put it into the refining furnace, poured it into a special solution prepared with a variety of acidic ores and plant juices, and then set it on fire. The fire scorched the scorpion cauldron with fierce fire to soften the scorpion tongs inside.

At this time, he put his consciousness into the cauldron to observe the softening degree of the scorpion tongs. When the scorpion tongs began to soften under the action of high temperature and acidic solution, he began to play the shaping-related refining methods recorded in the refining books. The softened scorpion pliers are fine-tuned and shaped into an "iron arm hook" shape.

After the shaping, Zhou Yang maintained the temperature of the flame while playing the artifact refining technique, placing a "shock" technique in the "iron arm divine hook".

After the arrangement of the legal ban was completed, he used the "Shooting Art" to pick up the "Iron Arm God Hook" and put it into the quenching pool that had been prepared a long time ago. It is a successful refining.

The first-order magic tool does not need to be sacrificed, and can be used by injecting infuriating mana. Zhou Yang randomly cast a mana into the newly trained magic tool, and two "iron arm hooks" weighing dozens of kilograms smashed heavily on the ground. On the iron man used to test the power of the magic weapon.

After hearing a loud "bang", dozens of slender cracks with the thickness of chopsticks suddenly appeared on the iron man made of fine iron, and then two pale yellow auras spread out from the "Iron Arm God Hook". The entire refining room was shaken, and the refining pot on the ground was almost overturned.

"Well, the power of this is close to that of a second-order low-grade magic weapon. It seems that my artifact refining technique is very close to the second-rank high-grade magic weapon. Very good, continue to try."

With a wave of his sleeves, he cast a mana to straighten the refining cauldron. Zhou Yang took out another material and put it into the cauldron. UU read www. uukanshu. com continued to refine.

After about half a year in this way, after hundreds of refining attempts, Zhou Yang finally succeeded in breaking through to the second-rank high-grade craftsman, becoming the youngest second-rank top-ranking craftsman in the Zhou family's history.

The weapon refining technique broke through to the second-rank high-grade, and Zhou Yang immediately passed the good news to the old patriarch Zhou Minghan and his parents. Then, not long after, he saw the parents who came here in the "Haoyang Grotto".

"Father, have you decided?"

Zhou Yang looked at the sudden arrival of his parents, and after a slight stunned moment, he immediately understood what the two of them were doing here.

"Why, as a father, can't I come to see you because I miss you?"

Zhou Xuanhao smiled slightly, as if he didn't see Zhou Yang's suddenly heavy face at all.

"Okay, you father and son don't make it look like enemies as soon as they meet. What are you talking about on this happy day when father and son meet?" Lin Yuting saw that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly interjected to ease the atmosphere.

After speaking, he grabbed Zhou Yang's hand and said with a smile, "Let's go, Yang'er will bring Weiwei to your cave, and this time, my mother has brought you a lot of local delicacies that can only be found in Fangshi. "
