Family Cultivation: Evergreen of the Song Family

Song Qingxing first took away the [Amethyst Chalcedony] in the marrow pool, and then took out a jade bottle and carefully took away all the [Chalcedony Cream].

As for the marrow fluid in the marrow pool, he kept it. It was the key to the condensation of [Amethyst Jadeite]. Judging from the size of this marrow pool, it should take less than a hundred years to condense a piece, which is already very good.

“Elder, judging from the scale of this [Amethyst Vein], there is a high probability that there is more than one marrow pool.” Song Youhui said excitedly.

As the only second-level mid-level geomancer of the Song family, he has extremely high attainments in exploring mineral veins, and his judgment is likely to be reliable.

If there were two or more marrow pools, it would be enough to meet the Song family's future needs.

"dig."

Song Qingxing's words are concise and to the point.

"As ordered."

Song Youhui immediately identified several directions with the highest probability.

This is the core area of ​​the [Amethyst Mine], with an astonishing density. Only the [Traceless Sword] in Song Qingxing's hand can cut it, and the factor of spiritual consciousness must also be considered...

It took Song Qingxing and others a whole year to explore the core area of ​​this vein, and they found the second marrow pool. Compared with the first one, the area of ​​this marrow pool is slightly smaller, and the speed of condensing [Amethyst Jadeite] is definitely slower than the former.

All in all, the output should be two pieces every hundred years, a double surprise. This number is already very impressive and far exceeds Song Xianming's psychological expectations.

Looking at the two pieces of [Amethyst Chalcedony] in his hand, Song Xianming couldn't stop smiling.

During the 19 years that Song Changsheng was in seclusion, Song Luyun, Song Changxuan and Song Changxue successively broke through to the great perfection of foundation building. Song had one [Barrier Breaking Pill] left, and these two pieces of [Amethyst Jadeite] were just enough.

It is enough, but no one has any intention of breaking through at the moment. There are already four monks in retreat. If they continue to retreat, the Song family will be almost half paralyzed.

“The family’s actions in the past few years have been somewhat obvious, and inevitably attracted the attention of some people with ulterior motives. The marrow pool is too fragile, and once exposed, it is likely to be destroyed.

The Council of Elders discussed it and decided to spread the news of the discovery of the [Titanium Ore Vein], and then build a mine on top of the pit, turning that area into a restricted area.

In addition, a space transmission array is built inside to connect Cangmang Peak, Wuxing Peak, and Lingyue Peak to ensure that the family can provide support at any time. "Song Luyun said slowly.

Song Xianming nodded slightly and said, "That's fine. Instead of hiding it, it's better to be open and aboveboard. Now that the [Amethyst Jade Marrow] has been taken away, the marrow pool has entered a dormant period. I will activate the formation to defend it later."

"Recently, we received news that Wang Qingquan, the patriarch of the Wang family, failed to break through the Purple Mansion Stage. There is a high probability that he will not survive this time." Song Qingshi suddenly said softly.

Hearing this, everyone present had different expressions.

Wang Qingquan thought that his retreat and breakthrough was very secretive, but in fact, he had already been discovered clearly by the spies of the Wind Language Palace.

He is over 240 years old this year and his life span is coming to an end. It is normal for him to want to give it a try. The Song family can accept Zijun and support the old ghost Chihuo to break through, and can also accept the appearance of Purple Mansion cultivators in other affiliated forces.

The current Song family is not the former Lieyang Sect, nor is it the Rong family. They have enough confidence and vision.

As the earliest ally of the Song family, the Wang family always firmly supported the Song family even when the Song family was at its lowest point.

Now that the Song family has risen, they have also been rewarded handsomely. In just a few decades, the overall strength of the Wang family has more than doubled, and intermarriages have never been interrupted over the years.

In view of their past achievements, if Wang Qingquan wants to break through to the Purple Mansion Stage, even if the Song family does not provide support, at least they will not hinder it.

But Wang didn't seem to realize this and chose to conceal it, planning to execute first and report later.

This has always been a source of resentment for the elders of the Song family. When they heard that Wang Qingquan had failed to break through, they felt indescribably complicated.

"Qingquan is getting more and more confused as he gets older. If the Song family can accommodate Zijun, could it be that they can't accommodate him?" Song Xianming's tone was full of regret. He was very disappointed with his old friend's final choice.

"In my grandson's opinion, the family should not send anyone to attend Wang's funeral this time. We should give them a warning so that they won't do anything behind our backs in the future." Song Changxuan said coldly.

"After all, they have been allies for hundreds of years. This is still a bit inappropriate. In my opinion, we should send an elder to offer condolences, and then give him a few warnings after the funeral.

Even if you don't consider others, you have to consider the feelings of sister-in-law Qingyan and nephew Changjun, after all, they are their brothers and uncles. "Song Luyun said obscurely.

After countless hesitations, Song Lutong finally married the girl from the Wang family, and successfully gave birth to a son before going into seclusion. The son has now grown up, with dual spiritual roots of wood and fire, and is very talented.

Wang Qingyan herself is also a foundation-building cultivator. After marrying into the Song family, she has always been law-abiding and has been working hard and without complaint during the years she has been stationed in Wangyue Market. Even if she has no credit, she has made some efforts.

When facing issues related to Wang, the mother and son still have to take it into consideration.

"There is no order without rules, aunt." Song Changxuan still firmly believed in his point of view.

"Alright, there's no need to argue anymore, the dead are the greatest.

We have known each other for so many years, and these little things are over. I will go to Qingquan's funeral in person." Song Xianming still remembered some of their old friendship.

“There is really no need to make a fuss, but it is not a solution to continue like this. Patriarch Wang is doing this because he is essentially suspicious. I think it is better to take the initiative to release the news to reassure everyone.

We can even provide them with some help in breakthroughs, such as realm comprehension, so that they can see the sincerity of the family. "Song Qingshi put forward his own views.

"Two hundred years ago, when the ancestor Yungui passed away, all the major forces in Lingzhou joined forces to cause chaos, almost pushing the family into the abyss. Aren't you afraid that the past will happen again?"

When it comes to dealing with affiliated forces, Song Changxuan is a conservative. He has always believed that those who are not of the same race must have different hearts.

Allowing subordinate forces to grow in power is sowing the seeds of disaster.

Song Qingshi said slowly: "Otherwise, the clan leader is a man of natural talent. Once he breaks through the Golden Core Stage, he will be like a latent dragon emerging from the abyss, soaring into the sky. What can a few Purple Mansion cultivators do to him?"

If used well, they will be the sharpest swords in the family's hands. Aren't the Chi and Zi families the best examples?
After the cultivators of the affiliated forces break through the Purple Mansion, they can be recruited as clan elders, separated from the clan, and fight for the clan. Isn't this wonderful?"

His remarks were not new, as the Jinwu Sect and the Tianmai Sect had always done so, and this was also the reason why there were so few Purple Mansion forces in the Great Qi.

Any force within the territories of the two major sects, as long as they give birth to a Purple Mansion cultivator, will be summoned to be an outer sect elder. They will be supported by the sect in peacetime and serve as pioneers in war. After making military achievements, they will give back to the family.

Although the outer sect elders had no real power, they could recommend disciples or clansmen to join the sect. Over time, the interests of these people became completely tied to the sect, and their connection with their family became increasingly weak, eventually becoming a tool for blood transfusions to the sect.

Although there are differences in the operating models between the family and the sect, they can be borrowed from each other to a limited extent, which will definitely be beneficial to the future development of the Song family.

Song Xianming nodded slightly and said, "That's not bad. Your elders' council can take some time to discuss it."

……

Song Xianming's personal attendance at Wang Qingquan's funeral indeed caused quite a stir within the Song family's territory.

The Wang family's explanation to the public was that Wang Qingquan died due to exhaustion of his lifespan, but everyone actually knew exactly what happened.

Everyone was watching the Song family's reaction to this matter and speculating on what would happen if Wang's lie was exposed.

As a result, not only was Wang not punished, the Song family also spread the word that any cultivator who had reached the great perfection of foundation building could use their contribution points to go to the Song family's scripture pavilion to borrow the insights and cultivation experiences of their predecessors.

At this time, the credibility and reputation accumulated by the Song family over the years came into play.

Many monks who had been hiding their true colors now revealed their true colors.

For example, the Chu family, the Shangguan family, and the current leader of the Liuyun Sect, Liu Tiancong, all made breakthroughs openly after reporting them.

This was simply impossible during the Lieyang Sect's time, but now the Song family has the courage and confidence to do so.

Everyone knew the reason, and it made them even more respectful of the Song family.

When hearing the news, everyone in the Wang family regretted their decision so much. If they had known that the Song family was so magnanimous, why would they have deliberately concealed the news and damaged the trust that they had worked so hard to establish?

It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in this world. The Song family's failure to pursue the matter is the greatest kindness to them...

There is no time in cultivation, and years are unknown in the mountains. Eleven years have passed in the blink of an eye.

This is the 30th year that Song Changsheng has been in seclusion. During this period, Da Qi and several surrounding cultivation circles have been very lively, and even the structure has changed.

After True Man Youxuan passed away in the Tianxiao Sect of the Dayu Cultivation World, True Man Zhaohua appeared out of nowhere and ended the monopoly of Qingyang Palace that had lasted for decades.

Because of the shift in focus between the Blood Demon Sect and the Haoran Alliance, the cultivation world of Lu State was turned upside down. Rakshasa Hall and the Five Poison Sect had to personally clean up the mess, and the air was filled with smoke for a while.

The continuous wars attracted countless monsters, such as the Guxian Sect, the Chuanhuo Sect, the Soul-Devouring Pavilion, and many other heard-of and unheard-of monsters.

The entire Lu State cultivation world was in chaos. It was even beyond the control of Rakshasa Hall and the Five Poison Sect, and was heading in an unknown direction.

The Gusu cultivation world is not peaceful either. The conflict between the Ancient God Pavilion and the Xuanling Sect has intensified, and it has reached the point where the Wanlong Chamber of Commerce needs to step in to mediate. The war between the North and the South may break out at any time.

The war between the Great Xiao cultivation world and the barbarians has not subsided, and King Xiao has gradually sent tens of thousands of troops to Tianxian Pass.

In comparison, the Da Qi cultivation world was actually the most peaceful during this period, with only some water monsters landing and causing trouble from time to time.

But that’s not entirely true. During these eleven years, many things happened that were enough to affect the power structure.

First, Shi Potian, the Wutan Zhenren of Tianmai Sect, broke through to the great perfection of the golden elixir, and for the first time in thousands of years, he suppressed the Jinwu Sect.

Secondly, the leader of the Jinwu Sect, Cheng Muchiu, failed to break through the Jindan stage and died under a heavenly thunder calamity.

There were quite a few cultivators who died on the way to breaking through the Purple Mansion, including Chu Nanfeng, the patriarch of the Chu clan, and Shangguan Yin, the patriarch of the Shangguan clan. Song Lutong, who had been in seclusion for the longest time, did not become the lucky one.

He was of strong character. After failing to break through, he did not choose to recuperate, but forced himself to break through a second time. In the end, his meridians were broken and he died. Among the elders of the Song family with the surname "Lu", only Song Luyun was still active in the world.

This was not the only piece of bad news. Song Changan also failed to break through, and the demonic energy attacked his mind, causing him to become possessed. He was eventually forcibly sealed in a cold pool on the top of the mountain by Song Xianming, and would not see the light of day again until the demonic energy was completely eradicated.

Unexpectedly, Song Qingxia successfully broke through the bottleneck and became the fifth Purple Mansion cultivator of the Song family. This was one of the few good news for the Song family in recent years.

At this point, there was a major reshuffle within the Song family, and many positions were adjusted.

Song Changsheng was completely unaware of the series of changes that had taken place in his family. At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged on the boundary wall of the Wutong small world, immersed in the vast ocean of laws.

The [Essence of Heaven and Earth] obtained from the treasure house of True Lord Yu Shu has been completely consumed, allowing him to completely integrate the true meaning of yin and yang and the true meaning of space, and advance from "true meaning" to "law", and both laws have reached the realm of minor success.

Enlightenment, minor achievement, major achievement, and perfection correspond to the state from the early stage to the perfection of the Golden Elixir period.

This is almost impossible for a Purple Mansion cultivator, but Song Changsheng did it, and it only took him thirty years. Such efficiency is enough to be on par with the chosen ones recorded in ancient books.

At the age of less than 120, Song Changsheng had already completed the journey that took many cultivators hundreds of years to complete. Even he himself did not expect such a result.

It took Mu Guibai a full hundred years to reach this point.

Of course, this does not mean that his talent is three times that of Mu Guibai, because the opportunities he has at his disposal are completely incomparable to the other party, and his starting line is naturally higher than that of ordinary people.

Logically speaking, he should continue to gain a deeper understanding and further improve his chances.

But Song Changsheng did not intend to do so, because the state of minor success was already close to the limit of the Purple Mansion period, and further improvement in comprehension was actually very limited.

At the beginning, Mu Guibai spent two hundred years but failed to break through from the state of minor success to the state of major success. He did not think that he could break through this limitation.

Instead of spending a long time to achieve limited improvement, it is better to make a concerted effort and fight for your destiny with God.

What is destined to happen will eventually come to you, and what is not destined to happen should not be forced. This was the last warning Mu Guibai gave him before he went into seclusion.

"Almost..." Song Changsheng slowly opened his eyes and murmured softly.

The black and white energies flowed, and the Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram emerged under his seat, and his figure suddenly disappeared...
