Chapter 282 Bloodline Restrictions and Affiliated Forces
Before returning to Evergreen Mountain to build the foundation, Li Xingsheng still visited Li Qianqing.
As usual, when the stone door of the cave opened, before he could enter, the rat on his shoulder had disappeared.
When he came in, he saw Shushu already chewing on the spirit stone.
“Thirteenth uncle.” After seeing Li Qianqing, Li Xingsheng immediately saluted.
"We are ready to build the foundation."
"Yes." Li Xingsheng nodded.
Li Qianqing didn’t feel much about Li Xunming’s foundation building a few years ago, because Li Xunming would definitely succeed in building the foundation. As for Li Xingsheng's foundation building, he didn't have much confidence.
After all, Li Xingsheng only has three spiritual roots. Even with the help of the Foundation Establishment Pill, the success rate of Foundation Establishment is less than 20%.
If Li Xingsheng could master the information he taught well and use it skillfully on himself, the success rate of foundation building would be more than 20%.
"There is plenty of time to prepare. I hope you can succeed in building a foundation." Li Qianqing said this, and then once again emphasized several precautions for building a foundation.
Li Xingsheng listened and nodded.
Li Qianqing had told him these precautions before, and he had kept them in mind.
"Thirteenth Uncle, I hope you can help take care of Shushu while I am building the foundation." Li Xingsheng looked at Shushu who was still enjoying the spirit stone.
Zhushu is different from his contracted monsters. If the contracted monsters communicate with each other a little, they can be quiet in the next few months. It is not a big problem not to see him as their master, and he thinks that Shushu Shu Shu can't do it, he thinks Shu Shu needs companionship.
The breakthrough from Qi refining to the foundation stage is different from the breakthrough during the Qi refining period. In the Qi refining stage, even if the peak of the sixth level of Qi refining, which takes the longest time to break through, breaks through to the seventh level of Qi refining, it will not take much time, while the breakthrough from Qi refining to the foundation stage will not take much time. It takes at least one month.
He felt that the person who could bring the best companionship to Shushu was undoubtedly his thirteenth uncle.
Other than him, the closest person to Shushu was his thirteenth uncle.
"It shouldn't be a big problem if it follows you to Evergreen Mountain." Li Qianqing thought for a moment. He felt that the mutated gold-eating rat would probably not feel lonely. The main reason was that Li Xingsheng was too concerned.
"Thirteenth Uncle, I think it's best for Shushu to follow you during this period." Li Xingsheng insisted.
"Okay." Li Qianqing nodded. He had no intention of refusing. Just now he just reminded Li Xingsheng that the adaptability of monsters should not be underestimated, but the status of rats in his heart was different. He said these things to Li Xingsheng were already unpleasant. Go in.
Li Qianqing also likes this little guy very much. After all, it has brought great benefits to the family, and it will bring even greater benefits in the future.
"Thank you, Thirteenth Uncle."
After Li Xingsheng saluted, he was about to leave. He looked at Shushu, who was still minding his own business eating spiritual stones.
Before coming, he had already told Shushu about this matter. When Shushu heard that he was living with Li Qianqing, he thought at first that Li Xingsheng was abandoning him. Later, Li Xingsheng explained that the time limit for living was two or three. moon.
Shushu nodded happily.
Li Xingsheng was reassured by Shushu's performance. It seemed that Shushu was quite happy to live with his thirteenth uncle.
Now look at the rat in the corner...Isn't it too happy?
When he left, Shushu did not say goodbye, but Uncle Thirteen came out of the cave to take a look.
‘Hope for success…’
Thinking in his mind, Li Qianqing returned to the cave after watching Li Xingsheng disappear from the mountain.
So far Li Xingsheng is still the only beast master in the family, and Li Qianqing hopes that he can build the foundation. If Li Xingsheng can build the foundation, he will have a great influence on the Li family.
Especially Li Xingsheng, the beast control master, also has a mutated gold-eating rat that is like his family, and this gold-eating rat may even be able to enter the second level.
After Shushu broke through the restrictions of his bloodline and became a late-stage first-order monster, he made a particularly great contribution to the Li family.
There are currently two undeveloped metal spirit mines in the Li family. These two metal spirit mines must wait until he has formed a pill before they can be developed, so that all the profits from the metal spirit mines belong to the family.
Li Qianqing, who returned to the cave, took one look at Shushu and continued his practice.
There are still some second-level mid-grade spiritual elixirs in his body that have not been completely refined.
After a long time.
Li Qianqing slowly opened his eyes, and then he saw Shushu looking at him.
“Jiji.”
After seeing him stop practicing, Shushu barked twice.
As soon as Li Qianqing heard this, he knew that this was a mutated gold-eating rat begging for food. "You didn't disturb my practice. If I didn't stop my practice, would you have been waiting for me?"
Shushu tilted his head, seemed to think for a moment, and then continued to bark twice.
“Oh.” Li Qianqing smiled, he probably understood the meaning.
Now he thinks this little guy is cuter.
Ordinary gold-devouring rats can live for fifty to sixty years unless something unexpected happens, and the normal life of cultivating to the peak of the mid-first level is sixty years. According to Li Qianqing's understanding, after a monster breaks through the restrictions of its bloodline, its longevity will increase in most cases.
Li Xingsheng’s mutated gold-eating rat is almost fifty years old. A few years ago, Li Qianqing examined it. At that time, its vitality was very strong. The mutated gold-eating rat that broke the bloodline restriction, at least There is no problem in living for a hundred years, or even longer, depending on the direction of the gold-eating rat's mutation.
At present, it is known that the direction of the mutation of this gold-eating rat is that it is more sensitive to metal ores, is very fast, and has a negative mutation, losing the normal ability of the gold-eating rat to dig.
Yuanshou can also be the direction of the mutation, but it has not yet been found out in detail. Even he can only give a rough judgment. Maybe the beastmaster in the pill formation stage can figure out all the mutations of rats. direction.
“This is for you.” Li Qianqing took out a spiritual stone.
This is not a low-grade spiritual stone, but a middle-grade spiritual stone.
Compared with consuming low-grade spiritual stones, after consuming medium-grade spiritual stones, Shushu can grow faster. This is also a reward he gave to the mutated gold-eating rat for not disturbing his cultivation and for being very obedient.
"Chiji." Shushu was very excited when he saw this middle-grade spiritual stone. As soon as he made a sound, he had already reached Li Qianqing's hand and got the middle-grade spiritual stone.
Different from chewing low-grade spiritual stones, when chewing medium-grade spiritual stones, the rat’s lower mouth is extremely small. If it eats too much at once, it will not be able to consume spiritual energy and convert it into its own cultivation.
"Little guy, try to reach the peak of the first level as soon as possible." After Li Qianqing smiled, he took a second level mid-grade spirit-boosting pill to enter the cultivation state again.
A medium-grade spiritual stone is enough for a mutated gold-eating rat to chew on for a very long time.
After eating some, it will stop and digest it properly.
…
After Li Xingsheng arrived at Changqing Mountain, he quickly found the clan leader Li Cunliu.
Nowadays, Li Cunliu basically never retreats, and in the end he is no longer in the cave. When he is not in the cave, he is doing the things at hand and usually returns soon.
When Li Xingsheng was born, he was just practicing daily spiritual arts.
After his cultivation level improved, Li Cunliu spent most of his training time improving his strength. The increase in means will also help him better display the strength that a normal monk in the late stage of foundation building should have.
"Great-grandfather." Li Xingsheng saw Li Cunliu and saluted immediately.
“Ready to build the foundation.”
"Yes." Li Xingsheng nodded.
"Yes." Li Cunliu turned back to the secret compartment of the cave, took out a foundation-building pill, and then said with a smile, "What happened to Xunming should not happen again in the future."
Li Xunming decided not to use the Foundation Establishment Pill, but he did not even inform Li Qianqing. He knew in his heart that maybe Li Qianqing would not stop him from doing so, but he would definitely tell the clan leader and other core family leaders.
And the patriarch will definitely stop him from doing so.
Li Xingsheng took the Foundation Establishment Pill from Li Cunliu, "Great-great-grandfather, I don't dare to protect the clan members behind me, but I will definitely not do this. Xunming did this because he has the confidence of a foreign spiritual root. , I am just the three spiritual roots..."
"Your thirteenth uncle also has three spiritual roots." Li Cunliu continued to smile and mentioned Li Qianqing.
"I remember that the Thirteenth Uncle didn't use the Foundation Establishment Pill at that time. If there was a Foundation Establishment Pill, the Thirteenth Uncle..." Li Xingsheng stopped here. Based on his understanding of the Thirteenth Uncle, , there is really no guarantee that the Thirteenth Uncle will use the Foundation Establishment Pill.
What if, in this situation, the Thirteenth Uncle feels that he can successfully build the foundation without using the foundation-building pill, he will really use it.
According to the situation discussed by the core senior management at that time, the Thirteenth Uncle felt that he could successfully build the foundation, so he went to build the foundation without waiting for the foundation building pill in the later stage.
"The Thirteenth Uncle is special." Li Xingsheng could only answer this way.
"Hahaha, great-grandfather, I won't tease you anymore. Relax a little, and you will be in a better state when building the foundation."
Li Xingsheng nodded understandingly upon hearing this.
Li Cunliu did not teach the monks who wanted to build foundations some of his previous foundation-building experiences as before. This aspect is currently the responsibility of Li Qianqing. Everyone's understanding of foundation building experience may be different. After listening to Li Qianqing's own foundation building experience, they all felt that Li Qianqing had a deeper understanding in this aspect, and also felt that Li Qianqing had a deeper understanding of this aspect. It was easier for others to understand, so he did not impart his own experience.
Finally, we chatted briefly.
He and Li Xingsheng left the cave together and followed him down below.
Under his gaze, Li Xingsheng entered the cave where the ancestors of the Li family built their foundation.
Like Li Qianqing, Li Cunliu's mood was different from last time when he saw Li Xingsheng preparing to build the foundation.
This state of mind is knowing that Li Xingsheng's foundation building is likely to fail, but I really hope that he will succeed. I never imagined that Li Xunming would fail to build the foundation. If Li Xunming had directly said that he did not need the foundation building pill, Their mood will also change.
"Next, I hope there will be good news."
After Li Cunliu couldn't help but say something, he did not go back, but went to complete his affairs for today. It was almost time now.
The foundation building of the Three Spiritual Root monks usually takes about two months to complete, which is similar to the time when Li Qianqing built the foundation before. However, they did not know that Li Qianqing completed the foundation building one month in advance and then stayed in the cave for a month.
In the cave.
Li Xingsheng has been adjusting his mentality. Grandpa Thirteen also made it clear that the mentality when building the foundation is also important.
Although foundation building is a particularly important thing for them, they still have to treat it with a normal mind.
After adjusting his condition, he took out the Foundation Establishment Pill.
‘It’s up to you. ’
Li Xingsheng thought in his mind that he would take the Foundation Building Pill and start building the Foundation the next moment!
……
Wutong County.
Luoyun Valley.
In late May, the weather is already very hot. For ordinary mortals, noon is no longer a good time to work.
Li Xunxun, who had just finished practicing, couldn't help but said, "Finally, he has reached the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining."
He is already forty-one years old this year. For a monk with two spiritual roots, , it is normal for him to reach the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining at this age. In fact, he can reach it earlier. When he had two miniature spiritual veins in Luoyun Valley, his cultivation speed overall slowed down a bit after he came here from Changqing Mountain.
After his great-grandfather Li Dihong left, he had more affairs than before, which also made his cultivation speed slower.
Otherwise, he can reach the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining when he is forty years old, and he may even complete this goal before he is forty years old.
"Eleventh brother did not use the Foundation Establishment Pill. The next Foundation Establishment Pill in the family is for me." In Li Xunxun's heart, he was very grateful that Li Xunming did not use the Foundation Establishment Pill to build the Foundation. Otherwise, if he wanted to use the Foundation Establishment Pill to build the Foundation, , we can only wait or even not be able to wait.
The family gave them the order of these foundation-building seeds and foundation-building pills. Under the same circumstances, whoever reaches the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining first will have the foundation-building pills.
Now this foundation building pill must be given to him. Even if the family produces another monk with a foreign spirit root this year, it will be the same. If the monk with a foreign spirit root appeared three years ago, this year will be the third year of the foreign spirit root monk. If the period ends, then this Foundation Establishment Pill will no longer be his.
The instructions for giving Foundation Establishing Pills are clearly stipulated. As for the appearance of Tianlinggen monks in the family... Such monks do not need to use Foundation Establishing Pills at all, so the Tianlinggen monks are not giving Foundation Establishing Pills. Consider scope.
In special situations like Li Xingsheng, a family monk like Li Xingsheng, considering the current situation of the family, Li Xingsheng must be given priority when giving the Foundation Establishment Pill. If the family only needs one or two Foundation Establishment monks now, the Foundation Establishment Pill will be the first choice. Those monks with dual spiritual roots are given priority.
When Li Xunxun reached the ninth level of Qi Refining, he already knew these rules.
'Alas, I have to see that guy again...'
Li Xunxun sighed in his heart. The family's foundation-building monk guarding Luoyun Valley was Li Xunting.
After he, a monk with dual spiritual roots, reaches the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining, he must inform Li Xunting of the situation. Although this is not a family rule, he must go, otherwise it will be "miserable".
When he was about to go out, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
The door opened, and the monk who came in was also a monk from the Xunzi family. This young female monk who looked like she was only in her early twenties was actually in her thirties.
"Fifth brother, a monk from the Shi family asked to see him. He said that he is the elder of the Shi family." After Li Xunyu saw Li Xunxun, he immediately reported the situation.
The Shi family is a Qi-refining and immortal-cultivating family in Wutong County, and currently has no affiliated forces.
The Li family in Wutong County has no other affiliated Qi refining forces except the Zhu family, which was the initial affiliated force.
