The banquet broke up unhappily, and Zhou Yang returned to Lingtian gloomily, meditating alone in the room.
When Xing'er saw this, she wanted to ask, but seeing Zhou Yang's mood was waning and his expression worried, she didn't dare to disturb him, but she felt a little worried in her heart.
The next day, Zhong Pengfei came to Lingtian and handed several jade slips to Zhou Yang. He just said "good luck" and returned to Tu Yan without stopping.
Zhou Yang picked up the first jade slip and put it between his eyebrows. It contained some insights from practicing from Kaiyuan to Tianyuan Realm, and contained a lot of content. He put it aside to look at it later.
The second jade slip records the experience of a cultivator, including an introduction to spiritual consciousness.
This cultivator's name was Qi Xie. His consciousness was injured during an experience, which was extremely difficult to treat. At that time, he visited famous doctors, but the treatment results were not ideal.
It wasn't until he broke through from the early stage to the middle stage of Tianyuan that he felt that the injury to his consciousness had improved. He felt happy and settled down to practice hard.
After breaking through to the late Tianyuan period, Qi Xie's spiritual injury actually improved a lot. However, the further he went, the more difficult it became to practice, and the progress became slower. Each step required a lot of effort and time.
Fifteen years later, Qi Xie finally broke through to the peak of Tianyuan, and his injuries to his consciousness were healed to some extent, but there were still some hidden dangers.
Later, he also successfully understood some of the power of the golden elixir and became a master of fake elixirs. However, until his life was approaching, he did not break through to the true golden elixir state, and his injuries to his consciousness were not healed.
But during that time, the injury to his consciousness never occurred. It was only in his final stage that his consciousness began to penetrate, and the pain was excruciating. In order to avoid the pain, he ordered his son to kill him, but his son could not bear to do it.
This is the end of Qi Xie's self-report.
However, some descendants have commented on this self-report, saying that each practitioner has a different physique and different skills. Some injuries to the consciousness can be alleviated and even cured by breaking through the realm.
Those who have cultivators cannot do it, and their injuries will worsen when they break through. As for which situation is more common, the reviewer has not done any research and cannot say.
It seemed that Uncle Zhong had only read the first half and not seen the comments at the end. No wonder he repeatedly warned that if Zhou Yang's consciousness worsened after his breakthrough, he would definitely feel guilty for the rest of his life.
Fortunately, Zhou Yang belongs to the former group. As long as he continues to break through, there is a possibility of recovery.
Judging from Qi Xie's self-report, although his spiritual injury was alleviated after the breakthrough, it suddenly broke out when his life span was about to expire. Could this be the consequence of the unrecovered spiritual injury?
If it doesn't show up on weekdays and only occurs when your life is short, you don't need to worry too much. The left and right are about to die, and it doesn't matter whether they have the pain of consciousness or not.
Therefore, maximizing longevity is the key.
There is only one way to increase longevity, and that is to break through the realm again and again.
If Qi Xie can break through the Golden Core realm, perhaps the injury to his consciousness will be healed.
Some of the other jade slips are about cultivation, and some are about the customs and customs of northern Hezhou. As for other places in Hezhou, there are some mentions on the jade slips, but not much.
As for the situation outside Hezhou, there are only a few strokes.
In the jade slips on cultivation, there are records of various magical powers after reaching the seventh level of the Lingtai. In addition to the ones that were passed down orally from the master uncle, there are also some more powerful ones.
These powerful magical powers are all related to the attributes of the cultivator. For example, metal cultivators can only cultivate gold magical powers, and wood cultivators can only cultivate wood magical powers.
Zhou Yang's essential attribute is gold, and there is a kind of gold magical power in the jade slips that is suitable for him to practice, which is the golden light finger.
The Golden Light Finger is a magical power based on spiritual light. It can only be practiced after reaching the later stages of the spiritual stage, because only then will the power of spiritual light be greatly improved.
After the Golden Light Finger is cultivated, it is much more powerful than the spiritual light, but the spiritual power used is much smaller. Therefore, it is a magical power that practitioners above the late stage of the Golden Spirit Stage compete to cultivate.
The mental method of the golden light finger requires a strong understanding, so it is not too difficult for those with good qualifications to practice this magical power. They only need to study hard and practice according to the mental method.
However, it is extremely difficult for people with ordinary qualifications to practice it, and they may even struggle to understand it in their entire lives. Therefore, the sect will teach it according to aptitude and skill, and ordinary disciples and elite disciples with little contribution to the sect cannot teach it lightly.
The above jade slips cannot be bought even if there are spiritual stones on the market. They were all rubbed by Zhong Pengfei secretly in the Ziyuanzong Library. It can be regarded as an act of asking for personal information. In the past, he would never have done this. , but now he also thinks about it.
Jin Guangzhi cannot practice in a short time, so he can only take his time. Zhou Yang did not continue to study other jade slips, but closed his eyes and looked inside.
The next day, he applied the disguise potion on his face and took a photo of it against the copper realm. It was indeed not as good as the old man's skill in cleaning his face.
At this time, his whole face was bulging. He touched it with his hands and always felt very uncomfortable, but there was no other way, that was all he could do for now.
He put on two more strokes of mustache and went out of the house.
It happened that Tie Hu had just come out, and was startled when he saw Zhou Yang, but he immediately realized it, with a strange look on his face, and said with a smile: "Little Yangzi, you can be called the Almighty Man from now on!"
"Why don't you go to Tu Yancheng and take charge of the Yangtian Pavilion from now on, so you don't have to make fun of me!" Zhou Yang saw Tiehu gloating about his misfortune, rolled his eyes at him, and said angrily.
"Okay, you are easy to do well. No one can see it. Okay! I'm going to supervise the work of those mortals. You can do yours." When Tiehu heard that he was asked to slaughter Yan, he was very nervous at first. I was happy, but when I heard that I wanted to host Yangtian Pavilion, I waved my hands and ran away like a smoke.
"You are optimistic about Lingtian, Yangtian Pavilion's business is not good, I have to stay there longer!" Zhou Yang shouted at Tiehu's back.
"knew!"
After entering the city, he passed by Wuji Hall, but Zhou Yang didn't go in. He didn't have many spiritual stones with him at this time, and he had to go back to Tu Yan to get them.
Because the breakthrough had relieved the injury to his consciousness, he was not too anxious.
After not returning for nearly two months, Tu Yan City has changed a lot. The city walls have returned to what they were before the beast wave and became stronger. There are many more buildings in the city, and the streets are much neater and wider.
The cultivators wandering on the streets disappeared, and there were more people in Free Market and shops. The whole city was bustling with activity, and the city that had been severely damaged by the beast tide gradually recovered.
This was originally a happy thing, but Zhou Yang was too worried to pay attention to it, and went straight to Zhou Tiange according to the location mentioned by Li Tong.
Coincidentally, this store happens to be located at the former site of Jubaozhai.
It seems that Jubaozhai was destroyed by the beast tide and was not rebuilt after that. I don’t know what is happening to the steward Gao De now.
Zhoutian Pavilion is much more impressive than Jubaozhai in the past, with a three-story pavilion and a six-bay facade. The top and bottom decorations are rich and luxurious, showing luxury.
The three characters "Zhou Tiange" are also made of iron hooks and silver strokes. They are as powerful as a swimming dragon. They must have been written by everyone.
The business of Zhoutian Pavilion is good, and there is an endless stream of cultivators coming in and out. Zhou Yang glanced around and then stepped into the shop.
The decoration inside the store is also magnificent. The young waiters are all wearing black brocade robes, all with smiles on their faces. They are welcoming and sending guests off, which is very lively. There are also many low-level cultivators who are exchanging monster materials for elixirs and other items.
When a young boy saw Zhou Yang coming in, he greeted him enthusiastically and asked Zhou Yang what he needed. Zhou Yang smiled and asked about some of the products in the store, looked at them while walking, and then bought some spiritual talismans and elixirs, spending hundreds of spiritual stones.
Seeing that this young man in the late stage of Lingtai was very generous and enthusiastic, the young man took the initiative to introduce Zhou Tiange.
Zhou Yang wanted this kind of effect. He listened and asked questions, and soon he had a deep understanding of the store's situation.
Zhoutian Pavilion is managed by the Tong family, and Tong Zhao, the young master of the Tong family, serves as the chief shopkeeper. There is also a second shopkeeper in the store, who I heard from the boy is from Dingbeicheng. He assists Tong Zhao in managing the store and transports the collected monster materials to Dingbeicheng.
And Tong Lianxue had returned to the teacher's school a few days ago.
Zhou Yang secretly gave the boy some spiritual stones and quietly asked about the specific situation of the Tong family. The young boy got the spirit stone and told Zhou Yang everything he knew.
As expected, although the Tong family's vitality was severely damaged by the beast tide, the family's situation improved greatly after Tong Lianxue came back.
The family had a lot more spiritual stone materials, and they also recruited some casual cultivators and certain forces. Suddenly, their strength increased greatly, their waist straightened up, and they regained their position as the second most popular person in Tu Yancheng.
Originally, there was another big family in Tu Yan City, the Gong family, which used to be on par with the Tong family in terms of power, but now it is far behind. Not only is it ranked third in Tu Yan, but the gap between it and the second oldest family is getting wider and wider. .
The young man also heard that the Tong family had recently made representations to Ziyuan Zong, requesting the reallocation of the shares in Daqingshan Iron Mine.
The reason given by the Tong family is simple. We had shares in the iron ore before, and we should have it now.
But Zi Yuanzong flatly refused.
They believe that the refined iron mine was rebuilt by the Ziyuan Sect after the beast tide. The Tong family had abandoned the mine before the reconstruction and did not contribute at all in the reconstruction, so they should not continue to own shares in the mine.
For this reason, the Tong family and Zi Yuanzong were very unhappy, and the conflicts became deeper and deeper. It was not until the end that Tong Lianxue personally came forward to negotiate with the latter, and Zi Yuanzong reluctantly agreed to sit down and negotiate.
Although due to the face of Zhou Tianzong, Ziyuanzong sent an elder to negotiate with the Tong family, they still insisted that Ziyuanzong should monopolize the mine, but they could give the Tong family appropriate compensation.
This move was rejected by Tong Lianxue. She did not want compensation and insisted on getting back the shares belonging to the Tong family. In the end, the negotiations broke down and they broke up unhappy.
When Zhou Yang heard this, he couldn't help but feel waves in his heart.
The Tong family dared to challenge Zi Yuanzong, it must be because of Zhou Tianzong's support, otherwise they would not dare to do so even if they had the courage of the Tong family. It seems that Tong Lianxue still holds a lot of weight in Hai Tianxiao's mind.
After leaving Zhou Tian Pavilion, Zhou Yang went straight back to his shop.
