With hundreds of years of experience, Li Xunting is now more thoughtful when thinking about problems. She is very clear about the advantages and disadvantages of Grandpa Thirteen's approach.
The most obvious shortcoming is that once the family fails to develop, it may fall into a great crisis. However, Li Xunting herself feels that such a crisis will not come because she believes in Grandpa Thirteen.
Thinking about it, Grandpa Thirteen has never failed in anything he has done since she became a monk. Compared with the Li family of a hundred years ago, the current Li family is countless times stronger.
When this shortcoming does not occur, Grandpa Thirteen’s approach is very suitable for the current family. Wherever the family’s influence is within the scope of influence, the reputation of their Li family is particularly high, no matter where they are. Among the affiliated Qi-refining and immortal-cultivating families, they are still practicing casually.
"By the way, Grandpa Thirteen, have you arranged for the search?" When talking about the rest, Li Qianqing did not say that besides her, there were other foundation-building monks who were going to Weishui County this time. Li Xunting felt that Grandpa Thirteen had not made arrangements yet.
There is no rush to arrange this matter at the moment, and it will only be two months before we actually start taking action.
"The person in charge needs to be Xunxun?" Li Qianqing looked at Li Xunting and asked with a smile.
"This kid is still thinking about defeating me." Li Xunting still finds it interesting when mentioning this. In her opinion, she and Li Xunxun are not getting closer in strength, but getting closer and closer. It's getting farther and farther, but Li Xunxun still thinks like this, which is commendable for his courage, "Give him a chance and let him perform well."
"Okay." Li Qianqing did not refuse.
In the list he had estimated, Li Xunxun was a person who could go or not. Since Li Xunting, the eldest sister, had spoken out, he just went with the flow. Anyway, it would be good for Li Xunxun to go. Maybe With this experience, it will be smoother when he reaches the peak of the middle stage of foundation building and breaks through to the late stage of foundation building.
The grandfather and grandson chatted for a few more words. It was about the same time when they met. Grandpa Thirteen's things had been handed over. It was time for her to return to Changlin Mountain and continue guarding. She also prepared for the counterattack on Weishui County in more than two months. .
After Li Xunting left, not long after, there was a knock on the door outside the stone door.
Shimen Cave is opened again.
The monk who came in this time was Li Changgui.
"Great-grandfather." When he saw Li Qianqing, Li Changgui immediately performed a basic etiquette and shouted at the same time.
"It's Changgui. Are you planning to build a foundation?" Li Qianqing thought for a while. When Li Changgui came to him in recent days, it was usually for foundation building.
Li Changgui, who has a talent for formations, and his teacher Duan Rongrong, who is still in the late stage of Qi refining, can easily set up some second-level low-grade spiritual formations. Now that he has reached the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining, It has been possible to set up a small second-level mid-level spiritual array.
If he wants to deploy a medium-sized second-level spiritual formation, he should be able to do it without breaking through the foundation building stage and giving him another ten years. The eighth grade achievement can be arranged.
Because he usually spends a lot of time on the formation, among the foundation building seeds of the Li family's double spiritual roots, it took Li Changgui a relatively long time to cultivate to the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining. He is also much older.
Nowadays, the foundation building seeds of the Li family's double spiritual roots normally start building in their early forties, but Li Changgui is almost fifty years old.
It takes a long time to achieve success with the formation. This is when the talent is good. If the talent is not good, it will be useless no matter how much time it takes.
"Yes, great-grandfather, I am ready to build the foundation." Li Changgui nodded. He found that his progress in studying formations had slowed down a lot, so he spent more time on He was ready to build the foundation, and now he is ready.
Master Duan Rongrong once told him that when he encounters too many problems in the formation and cannot solve them, he should spend time on cultivation. Only by furthering his cultivation can he The auxiliary formation path goes further.
The breakthrough in Qi refining to foundation building can also add more than a hundred years to his life span.
"Very good, I hope you can succeed in building the foundation." Li Qianqing nodded and quickly took out a foundation building pill, "Put the pill away and I will take you to the place where you can break through."< br>
"Yes, great-great-grandfather."
At this point in time, it would undoubtedly be a good thing if Li Changgui could successfully build the foundation.
Now he is in seclusion to build the foundation. With his talent of dual spiritual roots, the foundation building will be successful in mid-December, and then there will be the foundation building banquet one month later.
It would be very confusing for the two foundation-building and immortal cultivating families in Weishui County to hold a foundation-building banquet in January next year.
Since the Li family is going to hold a foundation banquet, it means that the Li family will not take any action in January. As a result, their vigilance will be reduced, which will undoubtedly make the actions at the beginning of next year even more... Easy to succeed.
Li Qianqing took Li Changgui to the breakthrough point and briefly chatted with the junior. He hoped that he would not have too much pressure when building the foundation and have confidence, so that it would be easier to succeed in building the foundation.
"Go in."
"Great-grandfather, I will definitely succeed in building the foundation!" After chatting with Li Qianqing for a few words, Li Changgui seemed to be more confident.
His success in foundation building can bring more benefits to the family, but the most important thing is that he can go further in the formation in the future.
When the stone door is closed.
Li Qianqing stood and watched for a while, then left.
If Li Changgui succeeds in building the foundation, the number of family foundation building monks will come to thirteen.
This number happens to be his ranking among his predecessors.
…
One and a half months passed in the blink of an eye.
It's mid-December now, it's cold and the temperatures are low, but today is a nice sunny day.
It snowed heavily yesterday, and the Evergreen Mountains are now completely white.
The stone door of the cave, which had been closed for a month and a half, slowly opened.
Li Changgui came out. Compared with when he entered, his breath had changed. The smile on his face at this moment was enough to explain his current mood.
Foundation building period!
In the process of breaking through, although he encountered some problems, he successfully solved them in the end. This was just like the difficulty of breaking through the formation, which made people happy both physically and mentally.
According to the current rules of the family, the moment he broke through to the foundation building stage, he also became the core high-level member of the family.
When Li Changgui closed the stone door of the cave behind him, Li Qianqing also appeared in front of him.
"Great-grandfather, I succeeded!" When he saw Li Qianqing, Li Changgui spoke immediately, and the smile on his face became even brighter.
"Very good, Changgui, you did not disappoint me." Li Changgui, who has a talent for formations, succeeded in building the foundation. Li Qianqing was naturally happy. Moreover, he succeeded in building the foundation at this time. He had a good timing. It can be said to be a double happiness.
Li Changgui knew in his heart that with the success of his foundation building, the number of family foundation building monks had once again broken the record, reaching thirteen, and Li Changgui had long known what the number thirteen represented.
My great-great-grandfather was the thirteenth among his predecessors. When I was still young, when I met my great-great-grandfather, the number thirteen was not there. The reason was that at that time, only the number thirteen among the male cultivators of my predecessors was left. If the great-great-grandfather is one person, there is no need to call the prefix number. The earlier monks still retained the title of great-great-grandfather, such as great-aunt.
"I want to tell Master this good news." After chatting with his great-grandfather for a few words, Li Changgui took out a transmission talisman from his storage bag.
Master Duan Rongrong was in Qingfeng Valley, and the transmission talisman used to contact Master wanted to be more advanced. This was also the first time that Li Changgui used the transmission talisman to contact Duan Rongrong.
Like many monks in the Li family, Duan Rongrong, his master, also particularly hopes that he can succeed in establishing the foundation and become a foundation-building monk so that he can better inherit her mantle in the future.
After Li Changgui recorded the good news into the transmission talisman, the transmission talisman turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the sky.
Not long after, a transmission note appeared in front of him.
This is Duan Rongrong’s reply.
The speed is really fast, which also shows that Duan Rongrong has nothing important to do at this time. If she is still studying the formation, she doesn't know when she can reply to the message.
After Li Qianqing saw Li Changgui receiving the content of the transmission notes, he immediately asked, "What did your master say?"
"Master said he would come to Changqing Mountain within this month." Li Changgui answered happily.
Counting the time, he had not seen his master Duan Rongrong for a long time.
Li Qianqing nodded lightly when he heard this. Duan Rongrong should stay at the Changqing Mountain Meeting for a long time this time. After all, next month is Li Changgui's foundation banquet.
For this distinguished guest, he naturally has to explain it well. Duan Rongrong is not only Li Changgui’s master, but also helped the Li family a lot in the past. Now many of the mountain-protecting spiritual formations of the Li family are made by her. .
Five days later.
Duan Rongrong came to Changqing Mountain.
Duan Rongrong was very happy to receive the news that her apprentice had successfully built the foundation. She would be very disappointed if Li Changgui stopped reaching the ninth level of Qi refining.
As the foundation-building seed of the Li family, Li Changgui can get a foundation-building pill for free. Duan Rongrong even thought that if Li Changgui couldn't build a foundation after taking a foundation-building pill, she, as a master, I will prepare another foundation-building pill for Li Changgui so that he can build his foundation again.
However, after this idea came out, she was quickly dismissed. The reason was not because the Foundation Establishment Pill was precious, but because Li Qianqing knew her idea and would prepare another Foundation Establishment Pill for Li Changgui. Under the influence of Xuewei, she thought she knew Li Qianqing relatively well.
Maybe even if she didn't tell Li Qianqing this, Li Qianqing would still do this. After all, Li Changgui is one of the few talented people in the formation, and he can also be regarded as a relatively special foundation-building seed.
When Duan Rongrong came to Changqing Mountain, he first went to see Li Changgui, and the master and apprentice had a good reunion.
In addition to their daily chat, the two of them were talking about formations. Duan Rongrong was talking to Li Changgui about the key points of learning how to arrange medium-sized or even large-scale second-level spiritual formations. Li Changgui, who had broken through to the foundation building stage, In the next few years, the study of formations will mainly focus on medium-sized spiritual formations.
Almost half a day after coming to Changqing Mountain, Duan Rongrong came to see Li Qianqing.
"Rongrong, sit down." After seeing Duan Rongrong come in, Li Qianqing motioned for her to sit down, "Child Changgui, you haven't made up for the loss, right?"
When the topic of Li Changgui was brought up, Li Qianqing also made a joke.
There is no doubt that Duan Rongrong is satisfied with Li Changgui, she said it a long time ago.
"It's a loss." Duan Rongrong gave Li Qianqing a satisfactory promise.
“How to say?”
Duan Rongrong smiled and answered Li Qianqing’s doubts, “It’s a pity that he can’t come to Qingfeng Valley with me. He is still a monk of your Li family. Compared with other masters and disciples in the valley, We meet for the least amount of time.”
Li Qianqing teased her. She was also joking with Li Qianqing. If it was for this reason, she would not have agreed to Li Qianqing to accept Li Changgui as his apprentice and guide him in the formation so that he could grow better in the future.
"How about you live in our Evergreen Mountain in the future? I guarantee that the cave I will give you will be worse than Qingfeng Valley, and the other treatment will be the same."
"When I get old in the future, I will consider it. Think about it." Duan Rongrong answered more seriously.
Looking at Duan Rongrong's expression, Li Qianqing felt that she was really considering it. To be honest, he was a little surprised.
“When you get old...that will happen in hundreds of years.”
Duan Rongrong has reached the peak of foundation building a while ago. According to her situation, it won't be long before she tries to form a pill. Li Qianqing's words mean that he hopes she can successfully form a pill.
Duan Rongrong’s elixir formation does not have any elixir-forming spirit. She only has two spiritual roots. The probability of elixir formation is very small. Judging from the meaning of Duan Rongrong’s words, she may have given up on elixir formation.
"I hope so." Duan Rongrong nodded and did not continue the topic.
The topic between the two returned to Li Changgui.
"Chang Gui has also successfully built the foundation now. With his talent in the formation, he will definitely surpass me in the future." It's a pity that she can't wait for that day.
And if she can successfully form the elixir, she won't be able to wait until the day when Li Changgui surpasses her. If she can really successfully form the elixir and grow in the formation, she will reach a new level.
Generally speaking, Li Changgui's talent in the formation is better than hers, but it is still better. If talents are divided into levels, they are still at the same level, but Li Changgui is at the upper level in this level. , and she's in the middle ground.
"This kid Changgui is also working hard. As my great-great-grandfather, I hope he can deploy a large third-order spiritual formation in the future." Li Qianqing still had high expectations for Li Changgui.
Both parties are Li Changgui's elders. When they talk together, it is easy to talk about his future.
The two of them started chatting about Li Changgui and then talked about the current situation in Zhao State.
Duan Rongrong still doesn't know about the Zhao royal family contacting Qingfeng Gu, and naturally she doesn't know that Qingfeng Gu plans to unite Shuiyunmen and Tianchuan Mountain to besiege Tianhe Sect.
"Qianqing, when do you plan to take action?" Duan Rongrong asked curiously.
Li Qianqing quickly gave the answer, "At the beginning of next year."
"Before Changgui's foundation banquet?"
"Yes." Li Qianqing nodded. .
"This is indeed a good time." Duan Rongrong thought for a while and felt that it would be a good time to start next month. "I happen to be here too. I will help you at the beginning of next year." (End of Chapter)
