Chapter 174 Hot Discussion
After leaving Lin Shikang’s small courtyard, the grandfather and grandson returned to their father’s cave together.
The mother and sister have received the news that they have returned to the family, and they have left the country to prepare for a reunion.
A family of five is sitting in a small courtyard chatting. They haven’t seen each other for half a year. My mother’s cultivation is still at the ninth level of Qi Refining. With her talent of four spiritual roots, if it were not for the assistance of the Barrier-Breaking Pill, she would be able to rely on meditation. It will take at least several years to achieve a breakthrough in cultivation.
My sister has changed a lot over the years. Now she is twenty-four years old, she has grown taller and taller, her face has become more delicate and charming, and her personality has matured a lot. She has always regarded her brother as a role model and wants to follow her. His footsteps.
Since she had no worries about the elixir she cultivated, and because she liked adventure, she joined the demon hunting team with her peers many times and went into the mountains to experience.
Her cultivation has also improved by leaps and bounds over the years. She has reached the seventh level of Qi training, and her strength ranks among the top three among the female clansmen of her generation. Together with Lin Tianqin, she is known as the two golden flowers of the Lin family.
As their cultivation level got higher and higher, the brother and sister often went into seclusion, and rarely met each other. Lin Tianming looked at his sister and joked:
"Tianyue, you have been quite good these years. Dare you run into the Luoyun Mountains?"
Seeing Lin Tianming looking down on her, Lin Tianyue was very reluctant, and then retorted with a pout.
"Brother..."
"We are all members of the family. You are at the fifth level of Qi refining and dare to guard Qingfeng Town alone. You even went into the mountains for a while. I am already at the seventh level of Qi refining. There are also groups of the same clan. Team, why can’t we go into the mountains to practice?”
Lin Tianming was speechless. He didn’t expect his sister to be so strong and rebuttal to him without any scruples.
As for his younger sister who is quite courageous and also likes to practice fighting skills, Lin Tianming agrees with it. This is good, so as not to waste her talent and become a showman with only cultivation but no strength.
Thinking of this, Lin Tianming was very happy.
Seeing that Lin Tianming stopped answering, Lin Shigong chuckled and then brought up the matter of the ten heroes of the family.
"Tianyue, your brother is a key training target in the foundation building period. There are also seven places in the Qi refining period. The youngest clan member at the seventh level of Qi refining has a family subsidy of four hundred spirit stones every year. This is amazing. It's not a small amount of money."
"Yes, you have to work harder and try to get a spot. In this way, you can improve your cultivation faster." Lin Xingrong said.
"Grandpa, is this true?" Lin Tianyue asked in surprise.
Faced with Lin Tianyue’s questioning, Lin Tianming interrupted and replied affirmatively:
"Of course it's true. The three of us just came out of Third Grandpa's cave and were talking about the ten heroes of the family. I think the family will officially make an announcement tomorrow."
Before he finished speaking, he heard Lin Tianyue was very excited about this big news and started dancing.
Before this, her cultivation speed was very fast. If she could be selected into the top ten of her family, she would not only make her grandpa and others look good, but she could also quickly improve her cultivation with the help of family rewards.
Thinking of this, Lin Tianyue was very excited, with a confident smile on her face.
Lin Tianming and others looked at her smile, and under her influence, everyone looked pleased.
The implementation of this family policy will definitely cause an uproar. After all, after the fourth level of Qi Refining, there will be a subsidy of one hundred spiritual stones per year. This amount is not small. Many casual cultivators in the later stage of Qi Refining have a net worth as well. Just a few hundred spirit stones.
As for the Lin family members, as long as they show their talents, they can obtain the Great Spiritual Stone. I believe that every member of the family will not give up this important benefit.
Lin Tianming couldn't help but guess that under this decision, after only a few years of competition, the family's overall strength would be able to reach a higher level again.
Returning to his mind, his mother also got up and left to prepare for dinner. Lin Tianming's grandfather and grandson chatted about their respective cultivation situations.
Grandpa has lived in the family for a long time and rarely leaves the clan unless there are important matters.
In terms of cultivation, he seems to know that his talent is limited. He spends a few days every month to teach the alchemy master of his family. He puts most of his energy into cultivating his tribe and alchemy. He spends the rest of his time practicing in seclusion. Although his cultivation has increased, It was slow and comfortable.
Lin Xingrong is much simpler. He used to stay in Luoyunfang City all year round, busy with the family, but these years he has been free. When he is responsible for guarding Jinjiao Mountain, he can also practice wholeheartedly, with the help of a large number of With regard to elixirs, his cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds, and he was the first to break through the second level of foundation building among the tribesmen who followed him up.
That night, a family of five sat together for a meal. After they had had enough wine and food, they left separately.
Lin Tianming returned to his cave, lying on his stone bed, Lin Tianming was thinking about the follow-up arrangements.
He plans to take a short break in the past few days before setting off again and returning to Qianchuanfang City. At that time, he will start refining the Dragon Bone Pill, and then use the Sparse Star Fruit to practice and strive to break through the foundation building as soon as possible. Second floor.
Unknowingly, he fell into a deep sleep with so many thoughts on his mind.
......
The next morning, a large notice was posted in front of the family's major institutions, which was particularly conspicuous.
In front of the family general affairs hall, this is the peak period for clan members to come and go. Seeing the notice posted in front of the door, a large number of clan members are gathering around to watch.
Seeing the crowd gathering, some tribesmen who were passing by were attracted, and soon a large number of tribesmen gathered.
In front of the notice, every clan member carefully observed the golden characters on it and were quickly shocked.
A tribesman at the fourth level of Qi Refining seemed a little unbelievable. He looked at the shocked tribesmen and said:
"Do you think the story about the ten heroes of this family is true or false? ”
"Nonsense, how can this be false? It's clearly written on the notice. Do you still need to question it?"
"That's right, this is blatantly posted at the door of the General Affairs Hall, how can it be false?"
...
Everyone who had regained their consciousness was discussing the things mentioned on the notice. The scene was very lively.
The tribesman who spoke first was full of excitement, and said to the tribesmen beside him:
"The family's subsidies are really quite large. The fourth level of Qi training provides a yearly subsidy of one hundred spirit stones. , plus the basic salary provided by the family, you can also save a lot of spiritual stones in a year. With these resources, you can quickly improve your cultivation."
But thinking that I am already in my forties, I am still in trouble. The cultivation level of the fourth level of Qi refining said helplessly and regretfully:
"It's a pity that with my qualifications and cultivation, it is absolutely impossible to occupy a seat."
"Yes! Our talents are destined to miss this benefit!" A tribesman on the sixth level of Qi Refining agreed. One sentence.
At this time, a tribesman at the fourth level of Qi Refining said something.
“Why don’t the family average these spirit stones and increase the basic benefits and mission rewards like last time? In this case, we can also take advantage of it, right?”
Hearing this, the crowd Many people's expressions changed, and Lin Xingqu, who was standing in the crowd, immediately interrupted:
"Be careful!"
"You must know that the family has improved the basic welfare of the clan members twice. As far as I know, the basic welfare of our family members is much higher than that of other families in Qiluoyun Mountain, even if The Jin family is a lot worse than before!”
“That’s right, I’m lucky enough to be born in the Lin family, why do I still think about a bowl of water? Duan Ping?”
“You have to know that Tianming is only in his twenties, he is already a foundation builder, and he is still a second-level alchemist. How much contribution he has made to the family, a Qianlong like him wants to compete with you. Is it the same?”
For a while, several members of the Xingzi tribe started scolding each other, and the tribesman who made the suggestion was ashamed and left the place in a hurry.
Seeing this, Lin Xingqu in the crowd said at this time: "My fellow tribesmen don't have to be discouraged. Those with high talents only have the upper hand. If given the chance, those with poor talents will not be much worse than those geniuses!"< br>
“Exactly!” A tribesman agreed.
“Many casual cultivators with poor talent can also succeed in building foundations, and there are even seniors who have broken through the Golden Core stage. We don’t need to shake our hearts towards the Tao because of this!”
After receiving encouragement from several people, some of the dejected tribesmen regained their confidence and expressed that they would work hard to practice regardless of whether they could be selected into the Seven Qi Refining Masters.
As some clan members left, news of the family's top ten heroes quickly spread throughout the family and became a topic of discussion among the clan members.
Some clan members who had different views on this matter even went to the clan leader Lin Shihua, hoping that the family could treat him fairly.
Almost all of the tribesmen who objected to these opinions were tribesmen with poor talents. They were usually lazy people and had not made much contribution to the family.
Lin Shihua was not polite at all to these lofty-minded tribesmen. After scolding them, everyone became honest.
With such a lesson learned from the past, no one in the clan who was waiting and watching dared to raise objections. After all, the senior family members were resolute and could not cause any trouble with their cultivation.
In the early morning of this day, Lin Tianming left the cave and walked towards the family elders' meeting. I met many tribesmen along the way, which caused quite a stir.
Many monks of the younger generation are well aware of the reputation of the family's number one genius, but have never seen him in person.
Lin Tianming greeted all the tribesmen, encouraged some young tribesmen, and then left calmly, leaving only his handsome figure.
After a while, he arrived at the family council of elders.
The main reason I came here today was for the Qingxu Snake Eggs and the Star Fruit Tree. When he left Qianchuanfang City, Lin Shiluqian told Wan to supervise this matter.
It happened that he also wanted to visit the family's elixir garden, so he came to see the clan leader.
Lin Shihua was quite happy to see Lin Tianming. When he learned of his intention, he immediately offered to go to the elixir garden together.
The two of them left the Presbyterian Hall together and soon came to the back mountain, a secluded canyon.
Looking at the canyon filled with birds and wild flowers, Lin Tianming looked carefully.
This was his first time to the Spiritual Medicine Garden, and he was curious about what it looked like inside.
Lin Shihua chuckled, then took out a token and entered it into a spell. A stone gate suddenly appeared on the edge of the invisible and colorless valley.
Feeling the rich spiritual energy and medicinal fragrance coming to his face, Lin Shihua walked in and introduced as he walked:
"Tianming, the family's elixir garden is in this valley. , there are forbidden guards all year round, and several tribesmen are sent to guard this place day and night."
Hearing Lin Shihua's introduction, Lin Tianming nodded, showing an expectant expression.
In the world of immortality, every family or sect attaches great importance to treasure houses and elixir gardens. Since they are of high value, they will almost always do the best to protect them.
Lin Tianming secretly thought that the Lin family had acquired a lot of resources over the years, so they must have many treasures.
After a while, the two came to the depths of the valley.
In front of the two of them, there was a large mound and a vast spiritual field. The square spiritual field was neatly organized, and a large number of elixir materials were planted in it.
Looking around, there are golden cow grass, earth xuanzhi, golden flower treasure, xuanteng flower...
There are many from the lowest level bigu pill main medicine to third-level elixir.
Hundreds of elixir materials are classified and planted in the planned spiritual fields. The breeze blows, the elixir leaves wave, and the rich medicinal fragrance spreads throughout the valley.
“Hidden Spirit Grass!”
Lin Tianming discovered that the young Hidden Spirit Grass he had obtained from himself was growing in the place with the strongest aura, but the medicinal age was still too short. If you want the medicine to be two hundred years old, it will take at least nearly a hundred years to refine the Small Foundation Establishment Pill.
Not far away, there are a large number of third-level elixirs growing, many of which are precious varieties obtained from the Jin family.
Looking at hundreds of high-level elixirs and a large number of second-level elixir materials, Lin Tianming's face was filled with excitement.
These are only some of the elixir materials of the Lin family. There are two large-scale elixir gardens in the Jin family and the Wu family. However, they are all ordinary varieties. Except for elixirs and fruits that cannot be transplanted, there are a few elixirs. All the precious things are gathered here.
After regaining their consciousness, the two of them walked through the medicinal fields and walked towards the mounds deep in the valley.
Coming deep into the valley, the terrain here is different from that of the medicinal fields. The medicinal fields are flat and delicate, while the mounds look like natural formations.
In addition, the soil in the medicinal fields is dark brown, and the soil on the mounds is all green and yellow, giving people a very obvious difference.
Looking up, there are different numbers and varieties of spiritual plants on each mound.
The Yuling fruit tree we got earlier is now growing on a mound, and its green leaves look good.
At this time, several tribesmen were digging caves on the mound with tools in their hands, as if they were transplanting something.
The two of them did not stop, they walked on the path between the mounds and came to a few people.
Seeing Lin Tianming and the others, several busy people stopped what they were doing and ran over to greet them.
Lin Shihua and the others nodded in return, then took out three Star Fruit Trees and placed them in front of a few people.
"Xing'an, these three Star fruit trees are quite important and precious. They need to be transplanted immediately. You and two people will start work on this immediately!"
The leader Lin Xing'an nodded and ordered the people behind him to transplant them immediately! Mi Xingguo moved to a bare mound.
Feeling the rich aura of this place, he waved the spiritual weapon in his hand and dug a deep pit in the mound.
After doing this, he then took out dozens of spiritual stones and threw them into the pit. Then he put the Star Fruit Tree in and covered it with soil.
After transplanting the Maoxing fruit tree, Lin Xing'an pinched it with both hands and cast a five-element spell, which condensed a large dark cloud in the sky and required a lot of rain to irrigate it before calling it a day.
Lin Tianming and Lin Tianming watched the whole process, while Lin Shihua opened his mouth to introduce.
“It is not difficult to grow spiritual medicine and transplant spiritual plants. As long as there are good spiritual fields and spiritual grounds, there will be no problem. The main thing is the later maintenance, which requires investing a lot of spiritual stones to increase spiritual energy. Regularly checking the growth of spiritual plants and providing timely sunlight and rainfall is a long-term process!"
Lin Tianming nodded and quickly understood the process.
Whether it is elixir materials or spiritual fruit trees, the requirements for the medicinal land are quite high. A lot of resources and maintenance are needed to survive a few years after transplantation, but we spent the first few years together. , it was much easier in the later stage.
Half a day passed quickly, and the three mermaid trees were successfully transplanted.
After Lin Shihua gave a few instructions and told Lin Xing'an to take good care of it, the two left the elixir garden together.
