Family Cultivation: Evergreen of the Song Family

Cangmang Peak and Entering the Clouds Palace.

A huge vortex began to gather on the top of the hall, and the surrounding spiritual energy seemed to be pulled by something and rushed uncontrollably towards the vortex in the air.

The vortex also accepted everyone who came, sucking in all the spiritual energy at the fastest speed.

Outside the main hall, Song Youfu looked up at the growing spiritual energy vortex, his mouth twitching slightly, and he couldn't help but mutter softly, "It's just a breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Stage, why is there such a big fuss? People who don't know would think he's breaking through to the Purple Mansion Stage. He doesn't know how to keep a low profile at all."

Anyone could hear the sourness and jealousy in his tone.

It's no wonder. Ever since the day he went up the mountain, Song Youfu has been suppressed by Song Youlin. He finally caught up with him over the years and achieved the great perfection of Qi Refining like him. However, before he could be happy for a few days, Song Youlin broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage before him.

"Among the younger generation of the family, you are the most high-profile one, yet you still have the nerve to say that others are not low-key enough."

A gentle voice sounded behind Song Youfu. He turned around and found that Song Changsheng had appeared behind him at some point, looking at him with a smile.

Song Xianming also appeared soon after, looking at the huge vortex of spiritual energy above the hall with a face full of worry.

Song Youfu immediately changed his expression, and ran over to the two of them, bowed and said, "Grandson greets Uncle Nine and Grandfather.

"My uncle, you can see clearly that my grandson usually acts in a high-profile manner just to cover up for my brother Lin. It's all just an act for others to see. You know, my grandson is actually a very low-key person."

"You're not stupid." Song Changsheng smiled slightly and did not comment.

Just as Song Youfu said, his existence was to cover for Song Youlin and make Song Youlin not stand out so much in the family. Otherwise, with his talent, he would not be qualified to enter the Cloud Palace to practice.

Song Youfu had figured this out a long time ago, and he had no objection to it. He was happy with it. After all, he had gained tangible benefits. This was an opportunity that many people envied.

"The momentum of Youlin's breakthrough is indeed too loud." Song Xianming frowned.

“It was not anticipated beforehand, so it’s a little too late to cover it up now, but it doesn’t matter, let it be exposed.

The family now has enough power to protect him, and after he breaks through the foundation-building stage, the other two will also have the power to protect themselves. "Song Changsheng responded calmly.

He didn't intend to hide Song Youlin for the rest of his life. The previous measures were only to prevent him from dying prematurely. After building his foundation, his ability to protect himself will be greatly improved, and he doesn't need to hide as carefully as before.

Song Xianming nodded and said, "You are right. We should be high-profile when it is time to be high-profile. Otherwise, some people will really think that there is no successor to the Song family."

"Did Youlin bring the [Foundation Building Pill] with him for his retreat?" Song Changsheng asked, turning his gaze to Song Youfu who was standing beside him.

"To answer Uncle Nine, no. The Fifth Ancestor did send you a Foundation Building Pill before, but he did not accept it. He said that he wanted to follow the example of you and Uncle Qing Xing and build his foundation using the ancient cultivators' foundation building method." Song Youfu responded respectfully.

"Yes, your ambition is commendable." Song Changsheng nodded slightly. Unlike Song Xianming who had a worried face, there was no worry on his face and he was very relaxed in his heart because he had absolute confidence in Song Youlin.

Song Youlin has the spiritual roots of earth and heaven. Theoretically, he will not encounter any bottlenecks before breaking through the golden elixir stage, and building the foundation is not difficult for him at all.

In addition to his outstanding talents, Song Youlin also worked very hard in his cultivation. For the past 18 years, he has practiced hard every day without slacking off for a single day.

Whether it is spiritual power, soul, or physical body, he has almost reached the pinnacle of the Qi training stage. This makes his foundation extremely solid, and it is not difficult for him to pass the three levels of foundation building.

The only thing that needs attention at the moment is whether he can understand his own way in the process of breakthrough and thus realize some truth.

The speed of cultivation is a reflection of aptitude, while whether one can comprehend the true meaning is a reflection of understanding.

Before the Jindan stage, cultivation depends on aptitude, and comprehension is not that important. However, if one wants to break through the Jindan stage or go further, comprehension is far more important than aptitude.

When Song Changsheng broke through the foundation-building stage, he comprehended the [true meaning of Yin and Yang], and when Song Qingxing broke through the foundation-building stage, he comprehended the [true meaning of the way of the sword]. This shows that both of them are people with outstanding comprehension and have the opportunity to break through their own shackles and break through the Jindan stage.

If Song Youlin can also comprehend some truth, his future ceiling will be even higher!

Under the expectant gaze of the three people, the vortex above the hall began to slowly shrink, which meant that Song Youlin had completely passed the three stages of foundation building, and this breakthrough was coming to an end.

"Don't you understand the true meaning?"

Song Changsheng couldn't help feeling disappointed as he hadn't seen the vision he was expecting.

At this moment, the ground beneath his feet shook slightly.

Afterwards, wisps of earth energy were seen rising up, and in an instant, the entire hall was shrouded in the ochre-colored earth energy.

The earth vein energy looks like fog, but it is actually very heavy. With so much earth vein energy gathered together, its weight is difficult to estimate. Fortunately, Ruyun Palace is not built with ordinary materials, otherwise it would have been crushed by this huge force.

Even so, Song Changsheng and the other two still heard the sound of the wood being squeezed and deformed.

"Buzzing..."

Continuous and regular vibrations came from under the feet, gathering towards the place where the Ruyun Palace was located. The earth energy in the air was moved by this force and rushed into the spiritual energy vortex in the air that had shrunk to only one foot square.

Seeing this scene, Song Changsheng's eyes suddenly burst into a ray of brilliance, and he blurted out: "Earth vein resonance, this is... [Earth Movement True Meaning]!"

Song Xianming's tense face suddenly relaxed and he smiled.

"Gudong"

Song Youfu swallowed subconsciously. Having followed Song Changsheng and Song Xianming in cultivation for so many years, he naturally knew what [The True Meaning of Earth Element] represented.

For a moment, he felt that the gap between him and Song Youlin could never be made up in this lifetime.

"Alas, it seems that I am destined to be a follower in this life." Song Youfu looked up at the sky and felt that the future was bleak.

In the past, he felt that he could barely keep up with Song Youlin, but after today, the gap between them could no longer be made up. He was completely defeated in both aptitude and comprehension.

After about an incense stick of time had passed, the earth energy that originally enveloped Ruoyun Palace had been completely absorbed by the vortex of spiritual energy in the air.

When the vortex of spiritual energy dissipated, the tightly closed door of Ruyun Palace burst open, and Song Youlin, wearing a black robe and with a resolute face, slowly walked out.

Although he had just broken through, he was already able to control his aura very well. He appeared very calm and reserved, in stark contrast to Song Changsheng's aggressiveness when he broke through.

"Greetings to the clan leader, ancestor." Song Youlin bowed respectfully. "No need to be polite, how do you feel?" Song Changsheng smiled and raised his hand.

Song Youlin thought seriously for a while and then said, "After the breakthrough, my grandson feels as if he has been sublimated. From his physical body to his soul, everything seems to be different from before, just like the feeling when he first drew Qi into his body."

Song Youfu on the side couldn't help but curl his lips and said, "Is it that close?"

Song Changsheng smiled and said, "This is because your life level has changed. You will gain more powerful strength and a longer lifespan.

After you break through the Purple Mansion Stage in the future, this feeling will become more obvious.

You have just achieved a breakthrough, so you should consolidate your cultivation, try to understand your realm, and go into seclusion to digest the gains from this breakthrough. There is no need to rush to go down the mountain."

Before his retreat and breakthrough, Song Youlin had revealed to him his desire to go down the mountain to gain experience. Actually, given his age, he was already old enough to go down the mountain to gain experience, but Song Changsheng took into account the current severe situation in the Da Qi cultivation world and his cultivation had only reached the great perfection of Qi Refining, so he rejected his request.

Seeing him hesitate to speak several times just now, Song Changsheng understood his thoughts after a little thought, so he said these words to give him a reassurance.

"Thank you, clan leader." There was a hint of excitement in Song Youlin's eyes. For him, even breaking through the foundation and comprehending the true meaning could not make him more excited than these words.

He is already twenty-five years old this year. Ordinary members of the tribe would have been working outside for at least several years at this age, but he still stays in this Cangmang Peak all day long to practice. It would be a lie to say that he does not yearn for the outside world.

We are all young people, how could we not yearn for the colorful world outside?
He thought he would be kept in the dark for a while, but he didn't expect Song Changsheng to agree so readily this time, which was really beyond his expectations.

In fact, Song Changsheng could understand Song Youlin's feelings very well. He was young once too and knew what young people really wanted.

So, after careful consideration, he decided to let Song Youlin go down the mountain to gain experience for a few years.

No matter how outstanding a genius is, he has to keep up with the world, otherwise he will be ruined sooner or later.

After sending Song Youlin away, Song Changsheng turned his gaze to Song Youfu and said, "You should also pack up and prepare to go down the mountain for training."

"Can I do it too?" Song Youfu was immediately cheered up. He was just envious of Song Youlin for being able to go down the mountain, but he didn't expect that he could do it too. This was indeed a pleasant surprise for him.

"You have reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining many years ago and have already condensed your attribute foundation. It is no longer useful for you to practice in seclusion. Go down the mountain.

Walk more, see more, experience more things you have never experienced before, and find opportunities to break through and build your foundation."

Hearing this, Song Youfu suddenly became excited and patted his chest and said, "Please rest assured, Uncle Nine, if I can't find an opportunity to break through this time, I will never return to Cangmang Peak!"

Song Xianming couldn't help but laugh, stretched out his hand and pointed at Song Youfu and said, "You, it's what you want to not go back to Cangmang Peak."

Song Youfu scratched his head in embarrassment when his little thoughts were seen through. Unlike Song Youlin, he had been down the mountain several times. Although the farthest he had been was Wangyue Market, it allowed him to see a corner of the world.

Compared to the remote and bustling Cangmang Peak, he prefers the bustling and lively atmosphere of Wangyue Market. If possible, he really wants to be a free and easy cultivator.

He always thought that he had hidden this idea very deeply, but he didn't expect that Song Xianming had already seen through it.

Song Changsheng looked indifferent and said calmly: "Cangmang Peak is not a prison. Do whatever you want. Just don't forget the way home."

Song Youfu's eyes were filled with tears, and he bowed his head and said, "Thank you, Uncle Nine, for your help."

After Song Youfu left, Song Xianming looked at Song Changsheng and said, "Although he is not as good as Youlin, he is also a good seedling. Aren't you worried that he will never come back this time?"

Song Changsheng shook his head slightly and said, "No, he longs for freedom and unfetteredness.

There are countless independent cultivators in this world, but how many of them have you seen who can achieve these two points?

There are so many independent cultivators not because they are willing to be independent cultivators, but because they are forced to do so by the situation.

Youfu is still young, so it is normal for him to have such immature thoughts. The seed in his heart has been planted, and he may not listen even if we talk him out of our mouths. Instead of doing this, we might as well try to let go and let him go on his own.

It is useless to teach others with a hundred words, but when things happen to teach people, they will naturally turn back after hitting a wall. "

"Oh, this collision is likely to cause a bloody head injury." Song Xianming sighed softly.

"It's okay, young people recover quickly." Song Changsheng said nonchalantly.

"Forget it, you are right. We should let them go out and try their luck on their own. But, having said that, we have to be on guard against Youlin when he goes down the mountain this time." Song Xianming said meaningfully.

The noise caused by Song Youlin's breakthrough just now was quite loud, and it must have attracted the attention of someone with ulterior motives. We must be on guard against those with ulterior motives who may be doing something secretly.

It is easy to dodge an open attack, but difficult to guard against a hidden arrow. The Song family has many enemies hiding in the dark.

After all, he is a cultivator with natural spiritual roots, so it is never too careful.

Song Changsheng nodded in agreement and said, "You are right. He needs someone to secretly protect him in order to feel at ease."

"Do you have someone you like?"

"Looking at the entire family, the position of the protector is best suited to Uncle Lu Tong. In addition, it's time for the family's hidden guards to go down the mountain to move around. Let Qin Yu and Qin Ze go down the mountain with them.

With the three of them protecting him in secret, even if a Purple Mansion cultivator takes action personally, he can still protect You Lin’s safety.”

"Lu Tong? Well, he is indeed the most suitable one. He has worked hard guarding Zhangye County over the years. Let's take this opportunity to let him relax." Song Xianming nodded and agreed with Song Changsheng's arrangement.

"I'm afraid Uncle Lu Tong doesn't think so. To put it bluntly, a protector is actually a babysitter. With Uncle Lu Tong's personality, he may not be willing to do it."

"Don't worry, Lu Tong is still clear about right and wrong. But you have to remind him that he can't take action unless it's a matter of life and death, otherwise the meaning of the training will be lost."

"My grandson saved it."
