Chapter 336 Situation and Fulfillment
Among the eleven families of One Emperor and Four Sects, the so-called One Emperor naturally refers to the royal family of Zhao State, the most powerful force in Zhao State.
When talking about the alchemy-cultivating families, the monks usually discuss the Zhao royal family alone. In a normal alchemy-cultivating family, the number of mortals in the family usually exceeds one million, and the powerful Dingtian is More than two million, not more than three million.
And the Zhao royal family has tens of millions of mortals!
What is also different from normal immortal cultivating families is that the Zhao royal family will also absorb casual cultivators with innocent backgrounds and good talents. However, because the Zhao royal family has limited promotion channels, their attraction to casual cultivators is far less than that of the four. Big gate.
There are many potential rules in the Zhao Kingdom's cultivation world set by the Zhao Kingdom's royal family. For example, in terms of the number of mortals owned by the Immortal Cultivation Family, the number of mortals owned by the top Foundation-Building Immortal Cultivation Family can exceed 500,000, but it is best to be less than 500,000. 700,000. The ordinary mortals of the Dan-forming Immortal Cultivation Family can exceed one million. If they want to exceed two million, their strength needs to be further improved.
There are many limiting factors in the number of mortals in a family, and the royal family of the Zhao Kingdom is the biggest limiting factor, which is also called the potential rule of the Zhao Kingdom's immortal world.
The Zhao royal family is very powerful, more powerful than any two sects combined, and if any three sects are added together and compared, it depends on the actual situation.
The combined power of the four major sects must currently be higher than that of the Zhao royal family. If it is lower than the Zhao royal family, the current situation in the Zhao kingdom's immortal world will become more complicated.
The situation between the royal family of the Zhao Kingdom and the four major sects, and between the four major sects, as well as eleven other sects, forms the balance of the immortal world in the Zhao Kingdom.
There is currently a trend of confrontation between the four major sects, but no one dares to really take action. The reason is the Zhao royal family.
If there is a real conflict between sects, the happiest person will naturally be the Zhao royal family.
The Eleven Families refer to the eleven alchemy-cultivating families in the Zhao Kingdom. They have a semi-subordinate and semi-cooperative relationship with the four major sects. After the Li family became an alchemy-cultivating family, their overall influence on the Zhao Kingdom It won't have much impact on the situation, but it will definitely have an impact on the local situation.
As for the hundreds of foundation-building forces further down, they will have even less impact on the situation in Zhao State. Their conflicts with each other are just like that. As long as the Alchemy-forming Immortal Cultivation Family does not take action, the four major sects will remain Peace on the surface.
"Friend Wei Dao, what do you think of the current situation in Yuemeng County?" Fang Mingchang, the head of the Fang family, looked at Wei Gongshi.
Yuemeng County is adjacent to Longhui County, and the current situation in Yuemeng County is very unfavorable to the affiliated forces of Qingfeng Valley.
If the situation continues like this, Yuemeng County will eventually be completely included in the sphere of influence of Tianhe Sect.
In this way, two counties in Longhui County, which is adjacent to the three counties, will be the territory of Tianhe Sect.
"You can still see it that way? Fellow Daoist Fang still thinks that our Wei family can't take action." Wei Gongshi smiled softly. If the Wei family really takes action and is discovered, some subtle secrets may be broken. Balance, there is a small possibility that Tianhe Sect will choose to turn a blind eye.
"Hahaha, I don't mean that." Fang Mingchang did not continue the topic.
The Xiayong County where their Fang family is located is close to the territory of Shuiyun Sect, and the relationship between Qingfeng Valley and Shuiyun Sect is very good, because among the three major alchemy cultivating families affiliated to Qingfeng Valley, the Fang family can be said to be the strongest. Comfortable.
There is basically nothing in the nearby counties that requires them to take action.
"Fortunately, in Wutong County, the sect is back in the lead." When talking about this, Yan Xuewei also joined the conversation. What she meant by this was to speak well of the Li family.
Wutong County can become what it is now, it can be said that it is all because of the Li family.
If it weren't for the Li family, the power of Qingfeng Valley and Tianhe Sect in Wutong County would still be half and half.
"Fellow Daoist Li grasped the timing very well. If he had taken action against the Wutongsun family later, it would have been difficult to take action now." After hearing Yan Xuewei's words, Fang Mingchang turned his attention to Li Qianqing.
Now that the Li family has become a family of alchemy cultivators, matters between the foundation-building forces cannot be dealt with openly and openly under the constraints of the latent rules of Zhao State.
"Yes." Li Qianqing nodded in agreement, "Our Li family is also lucky."
"We are indeed lucky."
Wei Gongshi agreed. One sentence, but what he meant more was that Li Qianqing was lucky and had enough opportunities to successfully form elixirs with three spiritual roots. His age seemed to be not more than 120 years old.
There is an old saying in the world of immortality in the Five Kingdoms: Before forming an elixir, it depends on talent, and after forming an elixir, it depends on luck.
The meaning is obvious. Judging from Li Qianqing's current situation, he should be the most likely to reach the peak of Dan Jie among all the alchemy monks present, and also the most likely to enter the Nascent Soul stage.
But after the Li family became an immortal cultivation family, both the Wei family and the Fang family carefully collected information about the Li family, especially Li Qianqing's personal situation.
In the past, it seemed that some of the legends held by Li Qianqing of the Li family were more about building momentum, which was to make Li Qianqing better become the patriarch of the family in the future. Now it seems that there is little possibility of building momentum. It should be said. It's true.
The four of them discussed the current situation in Zhao State until the end, and came to the conclusion that the Li family would be more stable in the situation of Zhao State after becoming an alchemy cultivating family.
If the Li family is still the top immortal cultivating family, then the Anjia and Tian family, the two foundation-building immortal cultivating families in Weishui County next to Wutong County, may take action against the Li family in the future under the arrangements of the Tianhe Sect, but now there is almost no possibility of taking action.
If the Foundation Establishing Immortal Cultivation Family takes the initiative to provoke the Pill Formation Immortality Cultivation Family, and the Pill Formation Immortality Cultivation Family destroys them, it will be difficult for the sect behind the Foundation Establishment Immortality Cultivation Family to take action without taking any action.
In this way, Tianhe Sect and Qingfeng Valley basically cannot fight here. The local situation is stable, and the overall situation in Zhao State is naturally more stable.
You must know that during the Dancing Banquet held by Li Qianqing, all the foundation-building monks of the Li family have returned to Changqing Mountain. There are no monks in the three spiritual vein places in Wutong County that need to be guarded during the foundation-building phase. To guard, as long as a foundation-building monk is sent there, it will be relatively easy to capture these three spiritual places. But do the An family or the Tian family dare to do this?
If you dare, the Li family can destroy them this year.
Even if the other party's top management loses their minds, they probably won't make such a decision.
From the Ma family and the Chen family in Wutong County, Ma Xuanzong and Chen Changsheng came to attend Li Qianqing’s elixir banquet this time.
Li Qianqing successfully formed the elixir, and the Li family became an elixir-forming immortality cultivating family. When the news first reached their ears, they were a little unbelievable at first, and then they were happy.
Originally, when the Li family was still a top foundation-building immortal cultivating family, with the Li family’s style, the possibility of taking action against them was very slim. Now that the Li family has become a core-building immortal cultivating family, even this possibility is slim. None.
Because the Li family is already a core-building force, but they are still a foundation-building force, and they both belong to Qingfeng Valley.
The four major sects all do not want to see the Alchemy Immortal Cultivation Family that is half-affiliated and half-cooperative with them, possessing more territory and more spiritual veins.
There is a degree to this.
The Li family has a good grasp of this situation, and with the help of Yan Xuewei, there is no problem under normal circumstances.
For Li Qianqing, it would be fine if the Li family’s strategy could be a little more aggressive in the future. After all, their apparent strength is that of an early-stage pill-forming monk and a third-level low-grade puppet, but more importantly, they still need to be stable. .
When things go to extremes, they must be reversed, and a particularly anxious development is detrimental to a family.
At dusk. Li Qianqing's elixir knotting banquet is over.
He first sent Fang Mingchang and Wei Gongshi away, and finally sent Yan Xuewei away.
Yan Xuewei was the last monk to leave the elixir banquet. The Li family still had many things to do for Duan Rongrong, so she still needed to stay here for a while.
For example, in Evergreen Mountain, at least five more caves for foundation-building monks to practice will now be opened, and these caves must be equipped with second-order miniature spirit gathering arrays.
"Rongrong, from now on you can live with Qianqing." Yan Xuewei looked at Duan Rongrong and joked.
Having said that, if Duan Rongrong had been in Xiangshui County, there would be one less formation elder in Qingfeng Valley, and the trouble would be her, Yan Xuewei.
"It would be great if our Li family could also have an formation master, so that we could have Rongrong as our teacher." Li Qianqing said using the topic, and what he said was true.
"Not bad." Yan Xuewei nodded, "This will make us more intimate."
Yan Xuewei and Li Qianqing talked to each other one by one. Duan Rongrong, the person involved, basically said nothing. She just nodded her head occasionally and responded with body language. If the Li family really has a talent for formation in the future, she would naturally not mind accepting a disciple.
Finally, under the gazes of Li Qianqing and Duan Rongrong, Yan Xuewei disappeared into the distant sky.
"Rongrong, go back and have a good rest. I have to ask you for the next step..." Li Qianqing smiled at Duan Rongrong.
A cave has been prepared for her in the Evergreen Mountains, and the opening of caves in other spiritual places has also begun.
"There is no need to be polite between us." Under the influence of Yan Xuewei and later Li Qianqing herself, Li Qianqing's status in her heart can currently be ranked among the top five, and the first one is naturally Yan Xuewei.
"Okay, let's go up."
"Yeah."
......
Early June.
Li Qiuben prepared for today as planned.
After looking for the thirteenth great-grandfather, he got an extra foundation-building pill in his hand.
A few days ago, the family held a core high-level meeting. While discussing the future development of the family, another focus was on changing the internal rules of the family.
The current Li family is a family of alchemy cultivators, which is different from the family of foundation-builders. In the past, as long as the dual spiritual root cultivators reached the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining, they were basically the core members of the family.
Today, if you want to become the core leader of the family, you must break through to the foundation building stage unless there are special circumstances. As for the so-called special circumstances, he, Li Qiuben, has a plant body and is a monk with dual spiritual roots. Special circumstances.
The ordinary senior members of the family are no longer at the ninth level of Qi refining, but must cultivate to the peak of the ninth level.
After the news spread, the family members had no objections. After all, they were already an alchemy cultivating family, so it was normal for such a change to happen.
In a family of alchemy cultivators, it would be abnormal if a cultivator in the Qi refining stage could easily become the family's core high-level executive.
Double Spiritual Roots, as the foundation building seeds of the family, have been cultivated to the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining. If you have the Fire Spiritual Root, you can still access the tenth level of Qi refining.
When we were still in the foundation-building and immortal-cultivating family, we must not expose our possession of the tenth-level Qi-refining technique. If exposed, there would be big problems. Qingfeng Valley would definitely send elders to obtain this ten-level Qi-refining technique. Even if With Yan Xuewei's help, at most Qingfeng Valley would give them more benefits to the Li family.
Now that they are a family of alchemy cultivators, even if it is not a big problem to reveal that they possess the tenth level of Qi refining technique, the Li family is already capable of guarding it, but it is definitely best if such news is not exposed.
It’s just that now the Li family can feel more at ease with the use of the tenth level Qi refining technique. At the same time, the most important point is that if the family gives birth to a Tianlinggen monk, it can be cultivated as usual, and external pressure can be easily dealt with.
When Li Xunming detected the wind spirit root, some of the family's core leaders were happy, but at the same time they were worried that the family was so lucky. What would happen if a cultivator with a heavenly spirit root appeared soon? At that time, if a Tianlinggen monk appeared in the Li family, they would basically have no choice but to send him to Qingfeng Valley. If he dared to hide it, the Li family would be targeted by the Shangzong all the time.
After becoming a Dan-jie Immortal Cultivation Family, the core executives have no worries and at the same time, they hope that the family will give birth to Tianlinggen monks in the future.
When they hoped that the family would have a Heavenly Spiritual Root cultivator, they felt that the family was not so lucky and it would be good to have another Foreign Spiritual Root cultivator.
"I must succeed in building the foundation!"
In the cave, Li Qiuben, who was fully activating the spirit gathering array, cheered himself up and calmed down his current state of mind.
Now he knows very well how much help he will have to the family when he successfully builds the foundation.
Therefore, he felt that he would not fail in building the foundation, and he would not let down his family's training for him, especially his thirteenth great-grandfather.
Only if he succeeds in building the foundation, can he go further on the path of spiritual cultivation. When he is still in the Qi refining stage, he cannot practice the techniques that can ripen the elixir.
After the elixir can be ripened, it will be more convenient for his research and improvement, which will save a lot of time. Moreover, when he reaches the foundation-building stage, the most important thing is the increase in longevity, which will give him more time in the future. If he can successfully form the elixir, he will become the most accomplished spiritual planter in the Five Kingdoms in the future.
After everything was ready, Li Qiuben took the Foundation Building Pill and started building the Foundation.
For him, the time spent in seclusion, breakthrough and foundation building passed very quickly.
The combination of spiritual root talent, special physique, and foundation-building pills gave him an 80% chance of success in foundation-building, not to mention that he had read the foundation-building experience compiled by his elders. This gives him a higher success rate in foundation building.
The time has quickly arrived in mid-July.
Li Qiuben's aura in the cave has changed.
From the peak breakthrough of the ninth level of Qi refining to the foundation building stage, the process was very smooth for him, with basically no obstacles for him.
"It's easier than I thought." Li Qiuben, who had completed his breakthrough, felt the changes in himself and was in a very good mood.
Entering the foundation building stage, you can finally practice the corresponding foundation building techniques, and at the same time take care of all the third-level spiritual fields in Evergreen Mountain, as well as some of the second-level spiritual fields.
