Chapter 12

Jiufengling, Baozhi Peak.

On this day, after Zhou Chun came out of the Jingling Pavilion, as usual, he first went back to his residence to meditate to recover his mana.

But he had just meditated for less than a quarter of an hour when he felt that the formation in the courtyard was touched by outsiders.

After he got up and opened the courtyard door, he saw Zhou Yong anxiously waiting for him.

Seeing him come out at this time, Dang even said in a deep voice: "The patriarch has an order. Except for the monks guarding the Jingling Pavilion and the mountain protection circle, all the clansmen in the mountain gate will gather at the Pagoda Peak. There is an important matter that needs to be announced in public! "

After finishing speaking, he cupped his hands and said, "I still have to inform other people, Brother Chun, you should go to Baota Peak as soon as possible."

Have something important to announce in public?
Suspicion flashed in Zhou Chun's eyes, and he looked at the back of Zhou Yong's leaving, Dang even tidied up, and set off to Pagoda Peak.

When he reached the top of the Pagoda Peak, he found that dozens of Zhou family monks had gathered here.

They ranged from centenarians to teenagers, all with dazed eyes, obviously like Zhou Chun, they were all called here suddenly.

Seeing this situation, Zhou Chun also stopped thinking about asking someone to inquire, and immediately greeted some familiar clansmen, and then waited together.

After waiting like this for more than half an hour, when the number of Zhou family monks gathered on the mountain approached a hundred, the patriarch Zhou Guyi and the three elders finally walked out from the "Zhongping Hall".

But just when Zhou Chun and the others thought that they were going to start announcing the reason, the patriarch Zhou Guyi and the other four Foundation Establishment cultivators suddenly bowed to the top of the mountain and saluted: "Welcome the Supreme Elder to leave the customs."

As soon as the words fell, a ball of blue light shot up from the top of the mountain, and soon fell to the middle of the mountain, where an old man with white hair and green clothes appeared.

This old man in Tsing Yi is the current pillar of the Zhou family, Zhou Wende, a cultivator of the Zifu period.

Although it looks a bit old, Zhou Wende's lifespan is actually not high among the monks of the Zifu period.

The lifespan of monks in the Zifu period generally exceeds 400 years, and some can even live to nearly 500 years.

Zhou Wende is only over 200 years old now, the reason why his head is full of gray hair is because he was already over [-] years old when he reached the Zifu stage, and he was approaching the life span of a monk in the foundation stage.

Speaking of it, Zhou Wende was able to break through the Zifu period more than ten years ago. For the Zhou family today, it can be said that God bless the Zhou family.

Because if it wasn't for Zhou Wende, a cultivator of the Zifu period who dared to stand up, when the Sanjue Sect was split up, I am afraid that few Zhou family monks would have dared to face Yu Jinghua, who was at the Jindan period, and would not have dared to say that he would Chengyi faction established the words of the Zhou family.

So in today's Zhou family, Zhou Wende, the Supreme Elder, is still very popular and respected.

Seeing him appear at this time, under the leadership of the patriarch Zhou Guyi, all the monks of the Zhou family present bowed to him and said: "The younger generation pays homage to the Supreme Elder."

"Every clansman, there is no need to be too polite, let's enter the ancestral hall with the old man first!"

With a wave of Zhou Wende's sleeves, Dang even led the way to the ancestral hall that had been closed since its establishment.

As a cultivating family organized by the family, the Zhou family's ancestral hall naturally focused on construction, and all the materials used were precious, and there was a separate magic circle to guard it.

Usually, if one wants to open this ancestral hall, only the Supreme Elder Zhou Wende and the Patriarch Zhou Guyi are qualified.

At this time Zhou Wende opened the gate of the ancestral hall, and Zhou Chun and other monks from the Zhou family followed him, seeing the scene inside the ancestral hall for the first time.

After entering the door, you can see a square patio, with a few lotus leaves floating in the middle pool, the lotus leaves are as green as jade, and the aura is compelling.

Under the lotus leaves, in the clear pool, a few huge golden carps were swimming in it, and their bodies exuded a faint aura.

Looking at the corridors on both sides of the patio, the walls of the corridors describe the history of the Zhou family in the form of murals and text, and record some of the feats that Zhou's ancestors have done.

For example, an ancestor of the Zhou family named Zhou Tong, together with two Jindan period friends, once beheaded the fourth-order dragon that harmed the world of cultivating immortals.

On the mural, you can see the picture of the ancestor of the Zhou family beheading the dragon.

Another example is that an ancestor of the Zhou family named Zhou Xia once entered a strange land and brought back a kind of spirit insect called [Jade Spirit Bee] from it, which greatly benefited the Zhou family.

On the mural, you can also see the figure of the ancestor of the Zhou family raising bees and collecting honey.

In short, the ancestors of the Zhou family who can appear in the form of murals in this ancestral hall are all existences that have made great contributions to the Zhou family, and they deserve to be remembered by the Zhou family monks forever.

"One must not forget one's roots, let alone one's ancestors!"

"My generation of immortal cultivators seek immortality and immortality, but as human beings, we must put people first, behave in human affairs, and walk in the human way."

"If it weren't for the dedication of the ancestors of the Zhou family on the two sides of the wall of merit, how would you and I have the opportunity to stand here today? How could we have this level of cultivation?"

"So, no matter how high your cultivation is in the future, no matter where you are, don't forget the achievements of your ancestors, and don't forget whose blood is flowing in your body!"

"Of course, the old man hopes that one day in the future, one of your names will appear on this wall of merit, so that the spirits of the ancestors and the descendants of the Zhou family will be proud of you and be proud of you!"

The majestic and deep voice slowly uttered from Zhou Wende's mouth, echoing leisurely in the ancestral hall.

All the monks of the Zhou family who were in the ancestral hall felt a strange emotion in their hearts when they heard his words.

Some old people showed shame and shame on their faces, and their heads were lowered, as if they felt ashamed of their ancestors.

Some teenagers and young people couldn't help puffing out their chests, with yearning in their eyes.

Even Zhou Chun's eyes froze slightly, a little touched.

Sacrificing ancestors, glorifying ancestors, these things were respected and recognized by the people of the country even in his previous life.

I still remember that when he was admitted to university, his parents, grandparents and other blood-related relatives were all happy to talk about it, and the villagers also praised him for his promise.

That should be the brightest time in his previous life!

It's a pity that after entering the society, that kind of thing never happened again, and even because I never got married, I didn't even dare to go back home often!

Thinking about the past life in his mind, Zhou Chun followed the crowd to the main hall of the ancestral hall before he knew it.

Because the Zhou family has a history of more than 1000 years, and the number of monks who have lived in the past is countless.

Therefore, except for the ancestors of the first generation and the second generation, those who can keep the tablets in the main hall are those who have cultivated above the foundation stage.

For those monks of the Zhou family who did not reach the foundation building stage, their memorial tablets were enshrined in the side halls on both sides of the main hall of the ancestral hall.

But in fact, because mortals are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall, the descendants of many tablets in the ancestral hall are already difficult to find the corresponding people among the monks present today.

Taking Zhou Chun as an example, his parents and grandparents in this body were all mortals, and he, a cultivator with spiritual roots, came out within five generations.

If he didn't look up the genealogy, he really didn't know the names of the ancestors of those immortal cultivators in his lineage for more than three generations, and where the tablets are enshrined now.

Among the Zhou family monks present here, there are quite a few monks who are in the same situation as him.

So in order not to affect the unity of the clansmen, Zhou Wende simply led everyone to start from the main hall, and bowed and offered incense to all the memorial tablets.

After the sacrificial ceremony was over, everyone returned to the main hall of the ancestral hall. Zhou Wende turned around slowly, turned his back to the spirit tablets of the ancestors behind him, and looked at everyone with a serious expression.

Seeing this, everyone tensed up, knowing that he was going to announce something important.

Immediately, one by one cheered up and waited with breathless concentration.

"My Zhou family has existed since our ancestors created the Sanjue Sect. It can be said that my Zhou family has been passed on for as many years as the Sanjue Sect has been passed down."

"For so many years, my Zhou family has shared weal and woe with the Sanjue Sect, and in order to maintain the inheritance of the sect and maintain the unity of the sect, the ancestors of the Zhou family have always deliberately downplayed the influence of the family."

"Now that the Sanjue Sect is no longer there, the Zhou family has suffered a catastrophe and is divided into two, and the clan members are falling apart."

"Since we, members of the Zhou family of Jiufengling, have inherited the orthodoxy of the Zhou family and the incense sacrifices of our ancestors, we must use the family as the foundation and the blood as the bond to work together to create brilliance and bring Zhou to glory. Let our ancestors and future generations be proud of us!"

When Zhou Wende said this, he paused slightly, and looked at the clansmen who were listening carefully.

Then his tone suddenly sank, and he said solemnly: "So in order to carry forward the Zhou family, for the smoother and more convenient cultivation of all clan members in the future, and for the Zhou family to become stronger and better, changes are imperative!"

"After several months of discussion between the old man, the patriarch and the elders, most of the places that need to be changed have been preliminarily drawn up. Today, I will announce it publicly here, in front of the ancestors."
