Niu Xinjing's ability to overcome the calamity and form the elixir made many families around Xuefeng Lake feel stressed and at the same time feel more at ease.
Nowadays, the magic path in the south is becoming more and more active, and even the dullest families have noticed that something is wrong.
The situation in the Great Zhou Kingdom was particularly chaotic.
It is a great benefit for Taoist Lord Chixiao to transform into a god and True Lord Chu Mu to become a Nascent Soul.
Unexpectedly, this person actually took charge of Xuan Palace and parted ways with the royal family. On the Great Monday, they suddenly lost the white jade pillar that held the sky, and the purple golden beam that built the sea, making them appear weak among the surrounding countries.
Subsequently, Master Qingya of Yanling Valley was attacked during the calamity, and Nascent Soul was captured. Fortunately, Master Qingli turned the tide, and now his momentum is rising instead of falling.
As a result, Yanling Valley recently had a conflict with the royal family due to the issue of profit distribution.
This made all the families in Xuefeng Lake who were originally located in Yanling Valley's sphere of influence, remain silent.
Fortunately, with Niu Xinjing's elixir formation, Xuefeng Lake now has two elixir formation masters and one is the Lord of the Blessed Land.
They also share the same spirit and have a close relationship, which undoubtedly increases their ability to withstand risks.
Therefore, as the news spread, all the major families could not wait for the Pill Formation Banquet, so they came to the door one after another, offering congratulatory gifts and seeking shelter.
The same situation has already happened to the Sang family of Yanglong Lake and the Li family of Kunpeng Blessed Land, so the Niu family didn't spend much time dealing with it.
In the quiet room, Li Qing, Sang Yuwan and Niu Xinjing planned the future.
Sang Yuwan said: "Now that the Yanling Valley is more powerful, it is impossible to give up more territory. If we want to make the plate bigger, we probably have to expand southward."
Niu Xinjing frowned slightly: "There are still two established alchemy-forming forces in the south, Moyun Peak and Changsheng Valley. Their alchemy-forming masters are at their peak in the Spring and Autumn Period, so they are not easy to mess with."
Li Qing pointed his finger at Chang Yan Immortal City: "Maybe we can start from here."
"I have had an acquaintance with the real person Zhao Xuan who is guarding this place. If he wants to use my blessed land magical power, he will have a bargaining chip."
Sang Yuwan's eyes lit up: "This is a good way. Although Zhao Daoyou was born in Qintian Prison, his relationship with the royal family is not good."
"Now that he has no support from both sides, he can only try to support the situation and cannot fully control the territory under his control. If we negotiate, he may give up some areas."
Niu Xinjing pondered for a moment: "Maybe, there is still a bargaining chip."
He drew a long and narrow area on the map: "We will directly extend the guard area to the border of Dalue, and promise to help fellow Daoist Zhao share the pressure of dealing with foreign enemies."
Li Qing nodded slightly: "In this case, there is a high chance that Master Zhao will agree."
Sang Yuwan smiled and said: "That being the case, it's not too late. Why don't you bother fellow Daoist Li and go to Changyan Fairy City?"
Li Qing waved his hand: "There is no need to be so anxious. Master Zhao will come to Kunpeng Blessed Land in a year. At that time, the two Taoist brothers will go there together and meet him."
"That's great!" Sang and Niu said in unison.
After agreeing on the future development of the situation, Li Qing and Sang Yuwan did not stay at Niu's house for long, and went back to their respective homes with the juniors who came to watch the ceremony.
Two days later, news came out that Master Jiang Xuan had passed away.
The Niu family in Xinghua Village and Tianyun Mountain thousands of miles away were all hung with white flags.
Li Qing asked people to come to the door and put up incense sticks to express his condolences, but paid no attention to him anymore.
Because of Li Hu's unexpected breakthrough in Xinghua Village and the foundation of Heavenly Dao, the entire Kunpeng Blessed Land is now in a state of uncertainty.
In particular, Li Wei, Li Zhao, Li Rong, and Li Ren secretly obtained Li Qing's promise of the Foundation Establishment Pill and were already gearing up to start a breakthrough.
Li Qing didn't keep them waiting, he started refining the elixir directly and turned the materials collected by his family over the years into the finished elixir.
Unfortunately, due to the limited quality of spiritual materials, I only got two genuine pills. Adding the original three pills, it was enough, and I could still save one.
On the same day, Li Qing summoned four people and gave them the Foundation Establishment Pill.
"My grandson thanked my uncle!" Li Wei's eyes flashed.
"Disciple, thank you Master!" Li Zhao looked excited.
"When I thank Qingzu, I will definitely live up to the high expectations and build the foundation of Taoism!" Li Rong and Li Ren shed tears of gratitude.
Li Qing did not give any further instructions. He only took out a jade slip and distributed it to everyone: "You already know about the crossing between the two realms."
"You should also have heard about the wizard's meditation method in that world, or even come into contact with it personally. This method is quite effective in anchoring the spiritual platform."
"But at the same time, this method will also pollute the newly born true essence, causing unpredictable consequences. I can't fully understand it."
"It seems like you, Yu Ancestor, went wrong while building the foundation because of this method, so you can only switch to the way of Narcissus. How you choose is up to you."
Li Wei shook her head and put the jade slip aside: "I have the help of Jiuxuanfu, and the success rate is acceptable, so I don't need this method."
Li Zhao also put down the jade slip: "I intend to follow the master's example and build the foundation first, and then also practice the wizard's method, so as not to disturb the foundation and affect promotion."
Li Rong felt a little confused when she thought about what happened to her great-uncle, and declined: "I don't need it anymore."
In the end, only Li Ren accepted the jade slip: "Thank you Qingzu for giving me the law."
Seeing that they each had their own choices, Li Qing didn't say much and talked about the breakthrough.
He first looked at Li Wei: "With the help of Jiu Xuan Blessing, you can retreat in Jiu Xuan Peak and attack the foundation. You and I have the closest relationship. Even if we become friends, it is natural and no one will delve into it."
< br>
Li Wei nodded: "I listen to my uncle."
Li Qing looked at the other three people again: "Now, my Li family in the blessed land of Kunpeng is covered with flowers and brocade, and the power of burning oil is really too eye-catching."
"I want you to go to the Elf World and make a breakthrough there. Even if you succeed, you will have to hide your realm when you come back. I wonder if you are willing?"
Li Zhao, Li Rong, and Li Ren looked at each other and nodded in unison: "We are willing!"
Li Qing smiled slightly: "That's great!"
He took Li Wei to Jiuxuan Peak, sorted out the ideas in the Earth Immortal Dharma Realm, and then asked Li Wei to retreat and attack the foundation.
Three months later, Li Wei successfully established the foundation, and the contracted Nine Mysterious Elf Insects also transformed into foundation-building elves.
After finishing Li Wei's foundation building matter, Li Qing brought Li Zhao, Li Rong and Li Ren to the elven world through the teleportation array.
After consulting the opinions of the three people, he took people to the cave dojo located on the bottom of the sea.
There is the aura left by Li Qing here, which is very helpful for breakthroughs.
Unfortunately, foundation building is the first major threshold for spiritual practice. Even with the help of the foundation building pill, not everyone can achieve it.
Li Qing trained him for nearly thirty years, and Li Zhao persisted for a long time before he successfully established the foundation.
Li Rong failed in building the foundation, and wanted to imitate Li Yu and become a narcissus, but she lacked some talent, and ultimately failed, and her vitality was severely damaged.
Like Li Yu, Li Ren was affected by the meditation method and failed to successfully build the foundation.
But this kid had a ruthless spirit, and he directly used his true energy as witchcraft power, made a second breakthrough, and accidentally became a fourth-level wizard.
It's just that his wizard is different from ordinary wizards. The witchcraft he has cultivated is too powerful and is not bound by the meditation method.
There are still many areas that need to be adjusted in the future.
Li Qing looked at Li Zhao with gleaming eyes, Li Bi with a complicated expression, and Li Rong with an ashen face, and sighed softly. "From now on, Li Ren will be stationed in the Elf World for a long time, just in time to take care of the Ling Coco Blessed Land for me. This volume is my newly revised meditation method, you can refer to it."
Li Ran cheered up: "Please rest assured Qingzu, I will run the Lingye Blessed Land well!"
Li Qing looked at Li Zhao: "I will pass on the second-level alchemy path to you. You go back to the world of cultivation, study hard, and teach it to the family alchemist on my behalf."
Li Zhao looked solemn: "I will obey my master's orders!"
Li Qing paused, and finally looked at Li Rong: "Failure to build the foundation does not mean there is no way out. You go back, find your uncle, and follow him to practice the way of Narcissus."
"With the Hexi Water Mansion here, this road may not be impassable. If you can cultivate into the second-level Narcissus, it will also be a blessing to our Li family."
Li Rong was unwilling to accept it, but knowing that he could have a foundation-building pill to save his life when the breakthrough failed, it was not easy, so he had to accept it sadly.
Li Qing shook his head and without any further persuasion, he first sent Li Ren to the Lingye Blessed Land and introduced him to the Coconut Blue Crab, Morning Light Lingxiao, and Golden Scale Tuna.
Seeing that his ancestor actually had three second-level spiritual beasts, Li Bi was shocked and encouraged: "Don't worry, Qingzu, I will cooperate well and protect the blessed land of spiritual coconut."
Li Qing took Li Zhao and Li Rong back to Kunpeng Blessed Land without any further instructions.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
As soon as the former came back, he was invited by Li Wei to ask for his experience in foundation building.
The latter reported to Li Yu and learned the narcissus method from him.
Also studying here is her clan brother Li Jie.
When the other party saw that she failed to build the foundation, he did not gloat: "Oh, think on the bright side, at least I'm still alive..."
Li Rong nodded and said nothing.
Li Qing didn't care about the affairs of these juniors. As soon as he returned to the cave, he was greeted by the clan leader Li Pu.
He came here this time mainly for the division of power in the Li family.
"Reporting to Qingzu, in addition to your contracted elves and spiritual beasts, the family has only two second-level realms, you and Yu Zu."
"Therefore, the structure of the family, from your two ancestors down, is the clan leader and many elders."
"But now, Li Hu and Li Wei have established foundations one after another. They are too young and senior. If they are the ancestors of the family with you, it would be unfair."
Li Qing thought the same thing: "I wonder what the patriarch's rules are?"
Li Pu then took out a silk document and said: "I want to re-divide the family power and positions. Please take a look at it."
Li Qing took it and took a look and found that the less formal title of ancestor had been deleted.
From now on, the third-level powerful people in the family, including Master Jiedan, the Lord of the Blessed Land, and the fifth-level wizard, will all be called Supreme Elders. If there are more than one, sort them again.
From the Supreme Elder down, a number of family elders have been set up, and they are headed by second-level powerhouses. Currently, one carrot and one pit. If there are too many people in the future, we will make other arrangements.
The elders went down and changed the title of the original clan leader to the family head, in charge of the family's general affairs.
The former elders were renamed deacons. Former deacons and other positions were renamed in turn.
Among them, most of the structures have just changed their names, and their responsibilities have not changed much.
The only two differences were that Li Qing was enshrined in such a high position that he officially surpassed Li Yu in rank and became the only Supreme Elder.
Second, younger generations such as Li Hu, Li Wei, Li Zhao, and Li Ren are on par with Li Yu, the previous Yu ancestor, in terms of fame and position.
Li Qing frowned slightly: "Has this charter been reviewed by Yu Zu?"
Li Pu hurriedly said: "How dare we make our own decisions? This is the decision of his old man himself, saying that there is no rule without rules..."
Li Qing pondered for a moment: "That's all, since the clan brother has no objection, then so be it."
He then pointed to the "Principal" column above: "This is really a bit unfair. At present, there are not many second-level monks in the family, and there are no suitable candidates."
"According to my wishes, you will still hold the position of clan leader for the time being. When personnel changes in the future, the clan will agree on a foundation-building monk to take over."
"In this way, the elders in the past are called chiefs, and the descendants are called deacons, and the names are changed one by one. The whole system will follow your system."
Li Pu took out a red pen on the spot, corrected it according to Li Qing's wishes, and wrote a new copy. After he confirmed and stamped it, he took it back.
The following month, the Li family officially began a new round of personnel reforms.
From now on, the Li family no longer has the title of Yu Zu, only Elder Li Yu.
Li Hu and Li Wei are fellow elders, and Li Zhao and Li Ren are temporarily hiding according to Li Qing's advice, but they still have no shortage of resources to support them.
The patriarch Li Pu is still conscientious and manages the family's general affairs. But everyone knows that he won't be able to sit in this seat for long.
And the former Qingzu Li Qing, as the only supreme elder in the family, still retains the title of "Qingzu".
This is the consensus of everyone in the family.
Li Qing didn't care about these false claims, but he didn't refute everyone's good intentions, so he acquiesced.
Time passed little by little, and by the time all personnel changes in the Li family were in place, it was already the spring of the second year.
On this day, a red fire cloud greeted Kunpeng Blessed Land.
Li Qing, who was sitting in the cave cultivating, hurriedly came out to greet him, and at the same time went to Yanglong Lake and Xinghua Village to send the messenger talisman.
The person who came was none other than the Lord of Changyan Immortal City, Master Zhao Xuan.
Seeing Li Qing, Zhao Xuan showed a hearty smile: "I haven't seen you for many years, my fellow Taoist Li, and he looks even better than before!"
Li Qing smiled: "I can't compare to Brother Zhao Dao, sitting in the fairy city, intimidating Da Le, and being a prince..."
Zhao Xuan shook his head: "Fellow Taoist, please stop making fun of me. I'm just trying to maintain the situation now."
Li Qing's heart moved, and he understood what the other party was implying.
This year, Li Qing, Sang Yuwan and Niu Xinjing all sent their disciples to Changyan Immortal City to contact Zhao Xuan's subordinates.
Over and over again, the demands of the three Xuefeng Lake families have reached Zhao Xuan’s ears.
Now, if he meant anything, he undoubtedly made his position clear: he was willing to give up part of his territory to the Niu family.
To be precise, it is an alliance that is willing to give up to the Li family, the Sang family, and the Niu family.
Understanding Zhao Xuan's attitude, the smile on Li Qing's face became more sincere: "Brother Taoist has come a long way and is so tired, why not take a rest first? Can we talk about the blessed land's magical powers tomorrow?"
Zhao Xuan smiled half-heartedly: "Then I insist on planting the seeds today?"
Li Qing's expression was natural: "That's okay. Everything will be done according to Brother Dao's wishes. I will prepare the blessed land magical power..."
The implication is that he does not intend to use this matter to threaten the other party.
Zhao Xuan was silent for a moment and smiled: "Let's rest first."
