Family Cultivation: Evergreen of the Song Family

Under the threat of the evil essence, Song Youfu was diligent for once, spending at least eight hours a day practicing in the cold pool. He did not slack off even when he was frozen unconscious. He was several times more diligent than Song Youlin, and it was no exaggeration to say that he was a model worker.

Of course, with his personality, he had tried to give up before, but the next day the evil spirit invaded his lungs, causing him to feel excruciating pain and cry for his parents. He didn't even need anyone to urge him, and he crawled to the cold pool to practice.

In addition to practicing, he also had to ask Song Youbai for methods and techniques for raising spirit beasts. He worked around the clock every day without a single moment of free time. Under the double torture of the evil spirit and the extreme cold force, he once lost hope for his future life.

This is equivalent to asking a person who used to work for two days and rest for three days to suddenly start doing 007. If he doesn't do it, he will die. This contrast and change is really big, which makes people feel a little at a loss.

Fortunately, whenever he wanted to give up, Song Changsheng would appear in time to enlighten him and pull him back from the brink of "collapse".

After being tortured like this for nearly two years, the effect of his efforts was very obvious. Song Youfu not only refined all the "bone marrow" he had taken before, but also successfully expelled the essence of evil spirit from his body.

The level of body refining has also improved significantly, and even the spiritual power has become much more condensed than before. It is no exaggeration to say that it has been improved in all aspects.

Moreover, under this unprecedented high-pressure environment, his cultivation level, which had been stagnant for a long time, finally loosened up.

Having found the opportunity for a breakthrough, he spent all the contribution points he had accumulated over the years, exchanged them for a [Foundation Building Pill] from the family treasury, and officially began his retreat to break through his foundation.

"This guy really needs to be pushed. If you don't push him hard and push him to the edge of despair, you won't know where his limit is."

Looking at Song Youfu who had officially started to break through, Song Changsheng said with a smile to Song Xianming beside him.

Song Xianming nodded in agreement and said, "He is indeed a good material. If he is polished well, he may be able to reach the Purple Mansion Realm in the future. We were too indulgent towards him in the past, which delayed his growth."

"My grandson has a slightly different opinion on this. People have different talents and personalities, so the suitable cultivation methods are also different.

The cultivation method that suits Youlin may not be suitable for others. Although Youfu is a bit lazy on weekdays, considering his dual spiritual roots, his cultivation speed is actually not slow.

Sometimes, choice is far more important than effort. If the direction you choose is wrong, no matter how hard you try, you will end up going astray.

Of course, there are people who have made the wrong choice and then found their way back to the right path, but to take this step, one needs to put in ten or a hundred times more effort than usual, which is not worth the effort.

Therefore, everyone should find a way of cultivation that suits them. Going with the flow is what mediocre people do. A true genius will carve out a path among the thorns. "

After listening to Song Changsheng's narration, Song Xianming couldn't help but laugh. He stretched out his hand and pointed at him and said, "You, you are giving me a lesson."

He came to the edge of the cliff with his hands behind his back, and looked through the thick sea of ​​clouds at the huge martial arts arena on the mountainside.

It was early in the morning, and hundreds of young monks of the Song family, dressed in uniform white robes, sat cross-legged in the martial arts field, listening to the master's explanations and demonstrations while trying to practice magic.

Their movements were exactly the same, so uniform and precise as if they were carved from the same mold.

Song Xianming couldn't help but sighed: "I know that cultivation cannot be the same for everyone, but in this world, geniuses are destined to be rare, and mediocre people are the mainstream.

It’s not that they want to be mediocre, but because of congenital deficiencies, they start from an inferior starting line from the moment they are born.

For them, if they want to succeed, they have to work a hundred or a thousand times harder than ordinary people. Diligence can make up for lack of talent is never an empty talk.

Although most people’s efforts are ineffective, there will always be people who stand out.”

After that, he turned his gaze to Song Changsheng and said with a smile: "You are a vivid example, with the talent of dual spiritual roots of water and fire, you broke through the foundation-building stage before the age of 30, and broke through the purple mansion stage before the age of 40, leaving many of the proud children of the major sects far behind.

Isn’t this the result of your hard work? "

Song Changsheng remained silent after hearing this. His ability to achieve these impressive achievements, apart from the special cultivation method, was indeed inseparable from his own efforts and experiences.

He is only sixty-five years old this year, but his experiences over the past few decades are more exciting than those of some people who are hundreds of years old. He has lost count of how many times he has escaped from the gates of hell.

These experiences are not replicable, but they are also a way of working hard.

It is good to find your own path, but you can also reach the top by following in the footsteps of those who came before you.

It is hard to say who is right or wrong in their views. They just have different positions, different views, and different opinions. That’s all.

After a moment of silence, Song Xianming reached out and patted Song Changsheng on the shoulder and said, "Okay, Youfu has been diligent for two years. We, the two grandfathers and grandsons, can't be lazy. We have to speed up the arrangement of the [Five Elements Yin and Yang Array] and try to complete it within a year." "According to the current progress, it would be no problem to complete it within a year with a little more effort, but I always feel that the array we have designed is a little too thin." Song Changsheng smacked his lips, a little dissatisfied with the power of the current array.

"Are you still not satisfied with this? Don't think about completing it overnight. The Ten Thousand Swords Returning to the Sect Array was built bit by bit over thousands of years by the Heavenly Sword Sect. We don't have the financial resources or the technology to do it now.

If you want to increase the power of the formation, it won't be too late to do it after you have improved your attainments in formation. It's a bit too early to consider these things now."

Song Xianming shook his head slightly, feeling that Song Changsheng was like a greedy child.

In his opinion, the power of the formation they had currently set up was indeed not weak.

There are five third-order, top-grade five-element formations of wood, fire, earth, metal and water, one ring after another, which are a trinity of killing, defense and trapping. There is also one third-order spiritual vein and four second-order spiritual veins for energy supply.

Even if a Jindan cultivator came in person, he would have to work hard, as there is basically no possibility of being broken. In the Da Qi cultivation world where formations are not popular, this is the mountain protection formation second only to the Two Sects and One City and the Tianjian Sect. It is also the limit of what the Song family can currently withstand.

Song Changsheng waved his hand and said, "The structure of the formation has been finalized. I naturally cannot make any changes at this moment. What I mean is, can we start from another direction and further enhance the overall power of the formation while making limited changes?"

"Use limited changes to enhance the overall power of the formation?" Song Xianming frowned slightly, not knowing what Song Changsheng was up to.

However, based on his understanding of Song Changsheng, since he said so, he probably already has a solution, or at least should have some relevant ideas.

"Tell me what you think."

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

"My idea comes from the battle formations of the ancient immortal dynasty cultivators. The ancient immortal dynasty soldiers could form various large formations to gather the power of all cultivators, and defeat the strong with the weak.

For example, the first battle formation of the Dayu Immortal Dynasty, [Tian Gang Po Jie], only required thirty-six Purple Mansion monks who practiced the same mental method to work together to resist three Jindan Zhenren.

Although this battle formation was lost along with the demise of the royal family of the Dayu Immortal Dynasty, the Qingyang Palace reproduced a simplified version of the [Earthly Evil Breaking Tribulation Formation] based on the incomplete map that was discovered by chance. It only takes 72 foundation-building monks to work together to set it up and be able to fight against multiple purple mansion monks.

Battle arrays and magic arrays have the same origin, and my grandson thinks there are things worth learning from and using." Song Changsheng said confidently.

Song Xianming had completely understood Song Changsheng's intention, and said with a twinkling light in his eyes: "Do you mean to combine the power of the tribesmen with the mountain protection formation?"

"Yes, that's what my grandson meant.

It was your previous words that reminded my grandson that uniformity has its advantages. Most of the members of the clan practice the same mental method and have the basic conditions for setting up battle formations.

The power of one Qi Refining cultivator might be insignificant, but what if there were a hundred or a thousand of them? Gathering all their power would be enough to make most Purple Mansion cultivators retreat.

If we add the foundation-building cultivators and purple mansion cultivators in our clan, and strengthen the formation under our feet, the power of the formation will definitely be taken to a higher level!"

Song Changsheng's thoughts became clearer and clearer as he spoke, and he became more and more excited. In the end, his eyes were sparkling with brilliance.

He finally understood why he had felt that this formation was weak before. This was a large formation large enough to cover the entire Cangmang Peak and the land around the four side peaks, but there were only him and Song Xianming in the main formation. Didn’t it seem weak?
This is a grand formation that protects the entire Song family. All members of the Song family should be involved, and the power of the entire family should be concentrated together. Everyone should work together, and only in this way can they be invincible.

To defeat the strong with the weak, to overcome the superior with the inferior, this is the charm of the formation!
Song Xianming was speechless for a moment. He admitted that what Song Changsheng said made him a little moved.

If the power of all the members of the clan could be integrated into the formation, the power that could be exerted would definitely be stronger than that of him and Song Changsheng alone.

Moreover, this method is not without precedent. It has been recorded in ancient books. However, not many people use it, and there are no ready-made formations to refer to, so they did not think about it in that direction at the beginning.

The reason why this plan was not considered at the beginning was because it required the formation master to have sufficiently high attainments in both magic formations and battle formations, but he and Song Changsheng knew nothing about battle formations.

Song Changsheng brought up this plan now, could it be that there is already a solution?

Song Xianming was deeply skeptical about this...
