Chapter 626: The choice of the mountain protection formation(1/2)
Wilderness place.
Not long after Zhou Chun returned from the Great Zhou Kingdom, he quietly reached the wilderness through the underground waterways of Lanzhou.
As Yunzhou was occupied by monsters and turned into a monster realm, the importance of this underground waterway became more obvious.
Because the situation was unclear before, and he was concerned about whether his attempt to conquer the Qinglian Mountains would be successful, Zhou Chun came to the wilderness immediately after the war.
The Zhou family monks who are holding on here don't know that the war is over yet.
At this time, after Zhou Chun arrived near the Caiyu Mountain stronghold, he couldn't help but feel relieved when he looked at the Caiyu Mountain stronghold in front of him, which was still functioning normally.
Now that the Zhou family wants to develop the Qinglian Mountains, all kinds of expenses are huge. It can be said that the money is flowing like water.
Even with the income gained from killing a large number of monsters in this beast wave, it is far from enough to sustain the situation.
Therefore, the importance of the Caiyu Mountain stronghold has become highlighted.
If even this stronghold is lost, with the current need for people everywhere, it is basically impossible for the Zhou family to allocate manpower to rebuild the pioneer stronghold in the wilderness.
Seeing that nothing happened at the stronghold, Zhou Chun immediately revealed his identity and entered the stronghold easily.
"My subordinates pay homage to the clan leader."
In the stronghold, Xu Fu learned of Zhou Chun's arrival and hurriedly came out to greet him.
"I have worked hard for you during this period. Now that the beast tide has ended, you don't need to worry too much anymore."
Zhou Chun looked at the Zhou family's son-in-law in front of him, nodded slightly, and said the good news in a gentle tone.
Hearing his words, Xu Fu's face suddenly showed a look of relief and joy, and then he quickly replied respectfully: "It's not hard for me, and no monsters have come here during this time. What happened at the beginning should be just an accident.
!”
"Since it was just an accident, there is no need to continue to huddle in the stronghold. The production that was stopped before should be ready to resume."
"Furthermore, this beast tide has taken away most of the demon beasts in this area. In the next few decades, the number of demon beasts in nearby areas should be reduced a lot. You can try to send people to explore undeveloped areas further away.
, looking for more resources worth picking!”
Zhou Chun's eyes flashed and he immediately expressed his opinion.
It is said to be an opinion, but when spoken in his capacity, it is actually an order.
Therefore, after Xu Fu heard what he said, he immediately responded respectfully: "Yes, I will obey the patriarch's instructions."
"You may not be clear about some situations, and the burden on your side may be a bit heavy next."
As Zhou Chun spoke, he told the story that the Zhou family had taken over the Qinglian Mountains.
After learning about this, Xu Fu was really surprised and happy, and quickly understood what he meant.
Immediately, he also solemnly expressed his position: "I understand, and I will definitely go all out to manage this financial resource for the family, and will never hinder the family!"
"Well, I still believe in your ability. During this beast tide war, the family also obtained a lot of third-level demon elixirs. I have already asked people to refine those elixirs that improve mana. When the time comes, in addition to giving them to Ying'er
Except for a part, you guys can redeem the rest with your contribution points!"
Zhou Chun nodded with satisfaction, and was well versed in the ways of serving his subordinates, so he gave the expected reward on the spot.
Afterwards, Zhou Chun inspected a circle of strongholds and left some medicinal pills and talismans before leaving.
He is quite popular now, so he still cannot easily stay away from the public eye for too long, lest someone discover something.
Moreover, the Zhou family still has many things that need him to solve.
For example, the spiritual trees and elixirs that had been transplanted to Bamboo Leaf Island in Le Country had to be transplanted back with the wood charm.
He also needs to be involved in communicating with the Su family and other families and seconding manpower.
In the subsequent collection of materials for setting up the mountain protection formation, he will still have to be the main force.
In short, he should be very busy in the next few years.
In the next six months, Zhou Chunye was really busy running around, relying on the time he squeezed out to maintain his daily practice.
Not only him, but also Lin Hongyu and Zhou Mingde also have their own things to do.
Except for some younger members of the Zhou family who have just entered Taoism, almost every monk in the Zhou family is busy with secular affairs and has their own livelihood.
On this day, Zhou Chun rarely had time to spare, so he immediately went to the Qinglian Mountains to find the Gongsun brothers and sisters and inquire about the layout plan of the mountain-protecting formation.
More than half a year is not too long, but it is not too short either.
What's more, the Zhou family has already conducted relevant exploration of the mountains, rivers, landforms, spiritual veins, and earth veins of the Qinglian Mountains before, which is equivalent to saving them a lot of effort in advance.
"Senior Mingjian, after six months of exploration, we found that the spiritual veins of the Qinglian Mountains belong to the wood virtue. It is mainly wood and secondary to earth, accompanied by metal and water. The fire virtue is weak, and it is suitable for setting up some forbidden formations for main defense and trapping enemies.
!”
On the Qinglian Peak, the main peak of the Qinglian Mountain Range, facing Zhou Chun's inquiry, Gongsun Yuanji and his sister Gongsun Yuanzhi expressed their opinions with a respectful expression.
Compared with the great Zhou Kingdom at that time, his respect for Zhou Chun now is truly respectful from the bottom of his heart.
Because in the past half year or so, they had heard various legends about Zhou Chun from the accompanying monks of the Zhou family.
Especially in the recent battle of the beast tide, Zhou Chun killed two fourth-level high-grade monster beasts with one force, which shocked Gongsun Yuanji.
We also know why Zhou Chun still dared to be so strong when facing Gongsun Xuanlu who could mobilize the mountain guard formation inside the mountain gate of the Gongsun family!
Facing such a strong man, he didn't dare to show any signs of neglect.
After listening to his analysis, Zhou Chun nodded first, and then asked: "In your opinion, what kind of formation should be deployed here?"
Hearing this, Gongsun Yuanji raised his head and glanced at Zhou Chun, then lowered his head and slowly expressed his opinion in a low tone.
"My sister-in-law's opinion is that if Senior Zhou can find nine fourth-level stone heart trees, transplant them to nine spiritual energy nodes in the mountain as the base of the formation, and then use [Earth Element Crystal Jade], [Wu Earth Xuan Stone], [Century Yellow Yellow Stone]
Copper] and other materials are used to refine three formation platforms, supplemented by fourth-level high-grade spiritual wood, fourth-level spiritual silk, [Yi Mu Yuanjing] and other materials to refine a main formation flag, and then the secrets of my Gongsun family can be laid out.
The big formation [Wood and Stone Spirit Locking Formation]!”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "This [Wood and Stone Spirit Locking Array] uses the two qi of wood and earth to circulate. In addition to having powerful defense and trapping enemies, it can also lock spiritual veins and stabilize earth veins, allowing
Many formation-breaking techniques that shake the spiritual veins and earth veins are difficult to work. It can also control the four-season climate and the distribution of spiritual energy in the mountain gate, with endless wonderful uses!"
After the words fell, Zhou Chun's expression changed slightly, and then he didn't speak for a long time.
To be honest, although he had known for a long time that setting up the mountain protection formation this time would not be easy, Zhou Chun did not expect it to be so troublesome.
It is true that the [Wood and Stone Spirit Locking Formation] mentioned by Gongsun Yuanji is very extraordinary, and in terms of mystery, it is far superior to the forbidden formation [Nine Palaces and Yellow Dragon Formation] that the Zhou family once used to protect Tuyun Ridge.
If such a formation can really be arranged, even if a Nascent Soul Stage monk takes action, it will be difficult to break such a large formation easily.
But where can Zhou Chun find the materials to set up such a formation?
Stone Heart Wood is originally a relatively rare spiritual tree. The fourth-level Stone Heart Wood must grow in a place with strong spiritual energy for at least a thousand years.
That's all.
If Zhou Chun was willing to give up some treasures, it would not be difficult to collect one or two fourth-level stone heart trees.
But it would be too difficult for him to transplant nine fourth-order stone heart trees!
Unless he happened to find a secret cave where Stoneheart Trees grew together, where would he find so many fourth-level Stoneheart Trees?
Therefore, after Zhou Chun was silent for a while, he shook his head slightly and said: "The other materials are easy to say, it won't be too difficult for Zhou to get them, but the number of nine stone heart trees is really too large. Even if Zhou can
Even if I can get the corresponding exchange items, I have nowhere to look for these spiritual trees!"
After saying that, he looked at the brother and sister Gongsun Yuanji and asked: "I wonder if other than this [Wood and Stone Locking Spirit Formation], do you two have any other alternatives? It would be best if they don't take too long to collect materials.
plan!"
Hearing what he said, Gongsun Yuanji immediately responded: "The [Wood and Stone Locking Spirit Formation] is the most suitable formation for this place among the formations mastered by my sister-in-law. If this formation is not used, the effect will be much worse."
The [Thousand Layers of Forest and Sea Formation], or the [Yimu Panlong Formation]!"
"But to tell you the truth, junior, neither the [Thousand Layers of Forest Formation] nor the [Yimu Panlong Formation] can pose any obstacle to the Yuanying Stage Daoist. The former cannot even trap the Yuanying Stage Daoist for even a quarter of an hour. The latter
Those who pay more attention to attack will find it even more difficult to resist the invasion of real people in the Nascent Soul Stage!"
It is not difficult to tell from Gongsun Yuanji's words that he did not agree with Zhou Chun's arrangement of the latter two formations.
Zhou Chun didn't know whether he felt that it was a waste of resources to arrange such an array in a blessed land like the Qinglian Mountains, or whether he could get more rewards for arranging the [Wood and Stone Spirit Locking Array].
But Zhou Chun immediately asked him about the relevant materials required for the latter two formations.
Obviously, compared with the [Wood and Stone Spirit Locking Formation], whether it is the [Thousand Layers of Forest and Sea Formation] or the [Yi Wood Coiled Dragon Formation], the materials required for their arrangement are much easier to find.
If he chooses these two formations, Zhou Chun is confident that he can gather the relevant materials within three years.
This made him immediately excited.
For him, it is actually not very important whether the formation can withstand the Nascent Soul stage real person.
He just wanted to have a good formation to build the mountain gate first and start construction as soon as possible.
As for the [Wood and Stone Spirit Locking Formation] and other mountain-protecting formations, if he can successfully transform elixirs into infants in the future, he will naturally have plenty of time to slowly collect materials and arrange them.
Even Gongsun Xuanlu would definitely not dare to refuse his invitation at that time.
But just when Zhou Chun wanted to speak out his choice, Gongsun Yuanzhi suddenly spoke: "If Senior Zhou just thinks that the fourth-order Stone Heart Wood is difficult to find, this junior knows that there must be a large amount of Stone Heart Wood in one place, so
Perhaps you can try to exchange for your senior’s cultivation strength!”
