Family Cultivation: Evergreen of the Song Family

Watching the extremely natural movements of the old ghost Chihuo, a strange color flashed in Song Xianming's eyes and he nodded secretly in his heart. No matter whether the other party was sincere or false, at least the attitude was shown, which was beneficial to the Song family.

The family has paid such a huge price for the [Barrier Breaking Pill] and the [Longevity Peach]. If Chihuo relies on his own strength and wants to break away from the control of the Song family, not only will the initial investment be wasted, but he might even have to fight.

Fortunately, for now, Chihuo has not had any other thoughts.

Like Song Xianming, Song Changsheng also received the message released by the old ghost Chihuo, and quickly reached out to help him up, saying with a smile: "Didn't I tell you a long time ago that there is no need for us to be like this.

What's more, you are not only the head of your clan, but also a Purple Mansion cultivator. Even if you look at the entire Da Qi cultivation world, you are ranked among the best. Behaving like this will undermine your dignity."

The old ghost Chihuo lowered his head and replied amiably, "If it weren't for the young master's painstaking cultivation, I would never have achieved what I have today. All of this was given by the young master. In front of the young master, why would I need to pretend?"

"Don't do this again in the future." Song Changsheng patted the old ghost Chihuo on the shoulder, and then said: "Break through the Purple Mansion and add more than 200 years of life. You have the capital to continue to climb up. Because of you, the upper limit of the Chi family has been raised straight up.

Next, you should consolidate your cultivation. The family will prepare for the Purple Mansion Ceremony for you. In addition, I will select suitable candidates from the family and go with Chi Ming and others to send out the invitations."

"Thank you for your concern, young master." Chi Huo bowed sincerely. Everyone has vanity. From an unknown cultivator to where he is today, he also wants to be famous.

But he had only some fame among the foundation-building cultivators before. If he sent out an invitation, at most only a few Purple Mansion forces would accept his invitation. After all, in terms of standards, it was still a bit lacking.

It would be different if it was sent out in the name of the Song family. The two sects and one city would definitely send people, and the momentum would be different. It would also be a great opportunity for him to expand his network.

"After all, you are an elder in the family. The family will naturally build momentum for you. The family will also share in the honor if you can break through the Purple Mansion Stage." Song Changsheng waved his hand.

Hearing this, Chi Huo's heart moved, and he struck while the iron was hot, saying: "Now that I have broken through the Purple Mansion Stage, I feel the preciousness of life. In the future, I just want to concentrate on cultivation. Therefore, I want to resign as the head of the Chi clan, return to the family, cultivate in peacetime, and contribute to the family in wartime."

"With your current level of cultivation, it is indeed a waste of your talent to continue to serve as the clan leader." Song Changsheng nodded slightly, thought for a moment and said, "You don't have to return to the clan. Your position as an elder will continue to be reserved for you. In the future, you will serve as the supreme elder of the Fiery Flame Hall, guard Yangzhou for the clan, and train the 'Scorching Sun Guards'."

"Everything will be subject to the young master's arrangements." Chihuo agreed quickly.

He actually didn't care where Song Changsheng arranged him to go, he just needed to make his attitude clear.

"This old slave has something else that he wants to present to the young master."

As he spoke, Chihuo took out a jade scroll from his sleeve, held it in both hands and handed it over respectfully.

"What is this?" Looking at the jade slip, Song Changsheng was a little confused.

"It suddenly appeared in my memory when I broke through the Purple Mansion Stage. I wrote it down. There are still many doubts, so please read it, young master."

"Suddenly appeared?" Song Changsheng's eyes flashed, and he looked deeply at the old ghost Chihuo in front of him, then placed the jade slip on his forehead. A ray of light flashed by, and the information recorded in it poured into Song Changsheng's sea of ​​consciousness.

After reading the entire article, Song Changsheng subconsciously tightened the jade slip in his hand.

What is recorded here is a method on how to use and enhance "blood power". Song had obtained several articles of this method in the Lost Pearl World before. He had tried to practice it, but failed because there was no "blood power" in his body that could be stimulated.

There are two sources of "blood power". One is the offspring born from the union of humans and foreign races. There is a chance that they can inherit some of the foreign race's blood power. Among them, the demon race is the first to bear the brunt. In ancient times, humans were enslaved by the demon race. During that period, many babies with mixed demon blood were born and passed down from generation to generation.

Due to various reasons, most of them have disappeared in the long river of history. Those who are still active in the Da Qi cultivation world are all powerful and dominant.

Of course, there are also examples of the combination of demons and humans, but such people are considered aliens in both the demon and human races. Unless they join those ancient families or forces, it is difficult for them to have the opportunity to grow.

The second is the offspring of a powerful person, who also has the opportunity to form bloodline power in their body.

Cultivators begin to come into contact with the power of laws from the Purple Mansion Stage. After continuous comprehension and baptism in the Golden Core Stage, Nascent Soul Stage, and God Transformation Stage, "law patterns" will slowly form in their bodies. Complete law patterns possess powerful power and will be engraved in the cultivator's body and can be passed on to their descendants through a special "inheritance factor."

This power will gradually be diluted along with the blood, and thus this method was born to stimulate and strengthen the blood in the body.

It is obvious that the Song family's ancestors have never had such a powerful person who can engrave the "Law Pattern" in his body.

But Chihuo is different. Judging from the childhood memories attached to the back of the jade slip, he must have a powerful blood power in his body, and the blood concentration is not low, otherwise he would not have such powerful strength and passive stimulation ability.

At that time, Chihuo had no concept of this aspect. Due to excessive use, his bloodline power was weakened and eventually fell into dormancy.

This time when he broke through to the Purple Mansion Stage, his bloodline power was stimulated once again, and after the successful breakthrough, he obtained this method.

This is quite similar to the demon clan. Jin Xuan also obtained the complete inheritance of the golden tortoise clan only after breaking through the third level.

"Chihuo actually possesses the power of blood. Did he come from the demon clan or was there a powerful person among his ancestors?" Song Changsheng rubbed the jade slip in his hand unconsciously with his fingertips, thinking about this question secretly in his heart.

In fact, he was more inclined to the first one, because after the blood power in Chihuo's body was activated, his performance was really too wild, without the slightest "immortal" aura.

"I don't know what kind of power he inherited, and whether he is still alive in the world?"

No matter it is a demon beast or a human cultivator, those who can leave power in the bloodline of their descendants are not ordinary people. Their lifespan is thousands of years, and it is really unknown whether they are still alive in the world.

However, these are not important at the moment. Song Changsheng now wants to find out whether the blood power in Chihuo's body still has the "inheritance factor".

After all, Chihuo's fertility is obvious to all. With so many children, even if only one or two can pass on the legacy, the Chi family's future potential will be infinitely elevated.

Suddenly, Song Changsheng thought of Chi Li, who had performed quite well before. Among Chi Huo's many children, he was the only one who inherited Chi Huo's striking red hair.

According to Chihuo's own account, his hair was originally black, and it turned red only after the blood power in his body was activated.

After capturing this key information, Song Changsheng's eyes lit up slightly: "Could it be..."

"Chihuo, you just came out of seclusion, and there is something I haven't had time to tell you yet."

"Please speak frankly, young master." "Your nineteenth son, Chi Li, is courageous and resolute, with extraordinary talent. He can be said to be a young talent. I intend to let him practice with me. Are you willing?"

"Chi Li?" Chi Huo was slightly stunned. He actually didn't have much impression of this name, because when he was in seclusion, Chi Li was only in his teens and had not yet reached adulthood.

His performance at that time was only average, and there was nothing outstanding about it. It was far worse than Chi Ming, so he did not have a deep impression.

But now Song Changsheng actually gave such a high evaluation and even specifically asked him to stay by his side. This was once what Chihuo had always dreamed of, but now it came so unexpectedly.

Moreover, the target was not his eldest son Chi Changxian, nor was it Chi Ming, whom he considered to be the best son, but the less famous Chi Li.

Seeing him like this, Song Changsheng guessed what he was thinking, which made him realize that Chi Li's hair might not have been red at first, otherwise Chi Huo should have noticed it long ago.

So he smiled and said, "You will understand when you meet him."

As soon as Song Changsheng had a thought, a divine thought passed through the barrier of the palace door and penetrated into the two brothers Chi Ming and Chi Li who had been waiting outside the door.

When Chi Li, with his striking red hair, walked into the hall, Chi Huo was stunned. In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

"I pay my respects to my father and congratulate him on making further progress and adding more than 200 years to his life!"

"I wish my father a long and prosperous life and everlasting enlightenment!"

The two men bowed solemnly, but their hearts were filled with anxiety. Now that Chi Huo had broken through to the Purple Mansion, the Chi family's future status would surely rise. As the only two foundation-building cultivators in the family, their future was bright.

Looking at Chi Li who had become a foundation-building cultivator, Chi Huo first motioned for the two to stand up, and then couldn't help but ask, "When did my son break through to the foundation-building stage?"

The Song family lifted the restrictions on exchanging [Foundation Building Pills] for its subordinate forces many years ago. Before Song Luzhou went into seclusion, he would refine a furnace every once in a while to enhance the strength of the Song family and its subordinate forces.

As the number one henchman under the Song family, Chihuo naturally had a role to play in this. He exchanged two [Foundation Building Pills] in total, and used one on his wife Bai Ruotong, but she failed to break through and barely saved her life.

One was used on Chi Ming, who successfully broke through the foundation.

After handing the family over to Chi Ming, he has been in seclusion for all these years, and the family has not encountered any war, so he should not have any contribution points to exchange for the third [Foundation Building Pill].

"In reply to father, I built my foundation three years ago using the ancient cultivators' foundation-building method."

When saying this, Chi Li's tone was full of pride. From childhood to adulthood, Chi Huo had placed all his focus on Chi Ming and hardly noticed his existence. But now, through his own efforts, he can finally stand in front of his father with dignity.

He wanted to tell his father loudly that he was no worse than anyone else!
"Good good."

There was indeed a relieved smile in Chihuo's eyes. He nodded repeatedly and said "OK" three times.

After saying that, he pointed at Chi Li's red hair which was exactly the same as his own and said, "Then why did your hair become like this?"

Seeing that Chihuo finally noticed his hair color, Chili couldn't help but raise his head and said, "When my child broke through the foundation-building stage and cleansed his meridians and marrow, his hair turned from black to red."

This is what he is most proud of. He has many brothers and sisters, and his father's favoritism has never been bestowed on him. But now, he is the only one who has the same conspicuous red hair as his father!

At this point, Chi Huo was basically certain that Chi Li was most likely to have inherited the blood power in his body, and it had been stimulated, so his hair color had changed.

This made him feel mixed emotions, as if a bottle of five flavors had been overturned.

On the one hand, he was happy that one of his descendants had inherited his mysterious power, which meant that he was not an exception.

On the other hand, he felt sorry that the person could not be Chi Changxian or Chi Ming. After all, these were his two favorite sons, one was the eldest son and the other was the most like him.

Watching this scene, Song Changsheng couldn't help but feel emotional. Every family has its own problems. Even a Purple Mansion cultivator couldn't treat everyone equally.

Preferences and exceptions always exist.

"It seems that I made the right decision to take him away." Song Changsheng thought secretly.

The Chi family doesn’t have an extra place for him, but the Song family does!
"Chihuo, I believe you have seen it, but do you still agree that I can take him away? Theoretically speaking, he is the best candidate to inherit your legacy."

Hearing this, Chihuo did not hesitate too much and bowed respectfully, saying, "It is a blessing for my son to be able to practice with the clan leader. If he stays with me, it will only hinder his future development."

After that, he directly ordered Chi Li to kneel in front of Song Changsheng and perform the ritual of three bows and nine kowtows to him.

Chi Li would also climb up the pole and call him "Master" directly after paying homage.

Song Changsheng did not comment, but said calmly: "I don't have any direct disciples yet. If you want to be my first disciple, that's fine, but I will teach you in the most severe way, so you must be mentally prepared."

This was actually a disguised acknowledgement that Chi Li was accepted as his personal disciple. Chi Li's face immediately blossomed with joy, and he said with a firm gaze: "Master, please rest assured, I am ready!"

"Shan, get up."

Chi Li quickly stood up and stood beside Song Changsheng very consciously, with his neck almost raised to the sky.

Looking at Chi Li's proud face, Chi Ming's eyes suddenly revealed a hint of envy.

The value of the words "Master Zixu's direct disciple" in the Da Qi cultivation world is no less than those of the direct disciples of the elders of the Jindan sects, and may even be greater!
