Chapter 166: Dark Spiritual Roots, Gaining Another Son, Establishing the Elders' Hall
When Fu Changsheng returned to Taixuan Peak from Pingshan County, Chen Yunrui also woke up. After being imprisoned for ten years without seeing the sun, although he had experienced a lot after regaining his freedom, he was still curious about everything outside. He raised his eyes and looked around carefully.

Fu Changsheng asked his servants to prepare bathing supplies, and after Chen Yunrui cleaned himself, he applied medicine to him.

When the clearing medicine is applied on the scar, there will be a burning and tearing pain. Many people will grimace in pain, but Chen Yunrui did not even frown during the whole process.

Ten years of torture.

This pain was obviously nothing to him.

However, he was flattered that Fu Changsheng personally applied the medicine to him, and he expressed his gratitude by making "ah ah ah" gestures.

Fu Changsheng used up two bottles of clearing medicine before he finished applying the other party's wounds. After a moment's silence, he said:

"Yunrui, it is fate that we met. I only have three sons now. Are you willing to change your surname to Fu and become my adopted son?"

Yoshiko?!
Chen Yunrui was stunned for a moment.

He was just a slave. How could he become the adopted son of the head of a quasi-ninth-rank family?

Chen Yunrui thought Fu Changsheng was joking.

But looking at the other person's serious expression and solemn face, it was obvious that he was sincere. His eyes turned red and he immediately stood up and bowed deeply to Fu Changsheng.

Fu Changsheng waved his sleeves.

A spiritual force lifted him up and said with a smile:

"Rui'er, since you have acknowledged me as your father, your name will also have to be changed. If you detect your spiritual roots, you will be of the Yong generation. Keep your original Rui character, and you will be Fu Yongrui in the future. Do you think this name is okay?"

When Fu Yongrui heard that he still had a chance to become an immortal cultivator, he became even more excited and was about to kowtow again, but was stopped by Fu Changsheng:

"There's no need to be so polite between father and son. Come on, I'll take you to the back mountain to check your spiritual roots."

Fu Yongrui was obviously nervous and uneasy when he heard this.

Because he was afraid that if he failed to detect his spiritual roots, he would disappoint his adoptive father.

Arrived at Shengxiantai in the back mountain.

After Fu Changsheng closed the magic circle, he said to Fu Yongrui:

"Yongrui, put your hands on the spirit-testing platform and don't be nervous."

Fu Yongrui nodded slightly.

He nervously placed his scarred hands on the spirit testing platform. After a while, he felt a flash before his eyes, and the next moment he appeared in a pitch-black abyss.

In this dark abyss.

He instinctively felt a sense of closeness.

it's here.

No one can see what he looks like, and no one can know what he has been through.

He likes darkness.

On the Ascension Platform.

Fu Yongrui placed his hands on the spirit-testing platform.

Fu Changsheng was still a little nervous and curious, not knowing what the other party's spiritual roots were.

After a while.

But the spirit-testing platform trembled slightly.

Subsequently.

The originally bright Ascension Platform was suddenly stained with black, and the surrounding environment suddenly became extremely dark, like an abyss. Even his spiritual sense could not penetrate the darkness.

Fu Changsheng felt awe in his heart.

The strange phenomenon quickly dissipated and the surroundings soon returned to normal.

Fu Changsheng looked at Fu Yongrui who had just opened his eyes, with a hint of disbelief in his eyes. Fu Yongrui, however, gestured with some trepidation:

"Godfather, do I have spiritual roots? Can I practice?"

"Well, you have a mutated dark spiritual root. Remember, your spiritual root attributes are unknown to anyone except you and me. Do you understand?"

"Yes, godfather."

Fu Yongrui gestured happily.

For the first time, a happy smile appeared on his face. Now he could start practicing. In the future, he would have the ability to protect himself and his family whom he wanted to protect.

Fu Yongrui was imprisoned at the age of five.

I can't read big characters.

Everything needs to start over.

Because of his special experience, he was unable to adapt to having so many people around him for a while, so he hesitated for a while and was taken to the Water Curtain Cave.

Instructed Yu Lian:
"Yulian, this is my new adopted son, named Yongrui. From now on, you will teach him how to read and write. After he can read, you can teach him martial arts, okay?"

Both Yu Lian and Fu Yongrui are the type of people who have had little contact with others since childhood.

The two people's auras are extremely compatible.

Yu Lian nodded slightly:

"Master, please rest assured."

Fu Yongrui looked up at Yu Lian, then quickly lowered his head.

Fu Changsheng gave Fu Yongrui a few instructions:
"I will be returning to Nanyang County, Anyang Prefecture. You should stay with Yulian and ask her if you encounter any difficulties. Don't hide anything. I understand."

When Fu Yongrui heard that Fu Changsheng was about to leave, his eyes were filled with reluctance and anxiety, but he still nodded obediently.

Fu Changsheng went up to the second floor of the wooden building.

I knocked on Shi Shutong's door. After two years of seclusion, Shi Shutong's injuries had recovered. When the two met, Shi Shutong said:

"Master, with my current level of cultivation, if I don't have the assistance of the Earth Fire House, I'm afraid the success rate of refining a second-level elixir will not be high. If this Ghost Cherry Pill is extremely important to you, you still have to go to the Earth Fire House to refine it. In addition, if you can have a first-level top-grade alchemist as an assistant, it would be even better."

Fu Changsheng had exactly this intention.

laughed:

"Master Shi, this time I want to take you back to the Luofeng Mountain clan land, where we have opened up the Earth Fire House. In addition, my wife is already a first-class alchemist. When you make the elixir, I will let her assist you."

Shi Shutong's realm has fallen to the Qi Refining Stage.

Fu Changsheng's purpose was very clear, which was to hope that the other party could give Meizhen some pointers so that Meizhen could take her alchemy skills to the next level and become a second-level alchemist.

The two chatted for a while.

Fu Changsheng went up to the third floor to find Master Yu again. This time when he returned to Luofeng Mountain, he had to upgrade the spiritual vein of Luofeng Mountain to the first-class level, so Master Yu had to cooperate and go back as well.

After the fiefdom affairs were handed over.

Fu Changli also rushed back from Kuishan County:

"Master, I'm sorry, because the Li family has 10,000 more people than I thought, and they are reluctant to throw away even a single stone, so the relocation has been slowed down. Now I have settled them in Huli Mountain."

"There are a total of 17 Qi training members in the Li family, including one in the late Qi training stage, who is the patriarch of the Li family, five in the middle Qi training stage, and the rest are in the early Qi training stage."

"Master, do you want to go and take a look?"

Fu Changsheng shook his head.

He told her that he was about to leave his fiefdom, gave her some instructions, and then said:

"Fourth sister, Xiaoqing will continue to stay by your side. This time I will take Master Yu with me when I return. So in the near future, unless there are special circumstances, try not to leave the fiefdom, and also keep the tribe members under control. I'll leave the fiefdom to you."

"Yes, master."

This time we returned to Luofeng Mountain.

Only he, Master Yu and Shi Shu were there. After everyone gathered, Fu Changsheng drove the flying boat away.

When he passed by the Li family's fiefdom in Hulishan, the familiar mechanical voice rang in his mind:

"Ding"

"You recruited a Qi training family for your fiefdom and received 300 contribution points."

Followed by.

The contribution value on the panel changed to eight hundred and fifty.

This was an unexpected surprise.

Lake Mountain.

The patriarch of the Li family sat at the head of the table, and all the Qi-cultivating members of the clan had already taken seats on both sides.

The young tribesman on the left frowned slightly and said:

"Father, this Kuishan County is bare and has nothing. It's not as good as our clan mountain in Kuishan County. Moreover, the Fu family is not even a ninth-rank family. I really don't understand why we have to move to this godforsaken place."

The young clan member is the eldest son of the Li family patriarch and the next clan leader.

Upon hearing this, the head of the Li family at the top of the table had a hint of anger flashing across his brows. He had brought this son up by his side for many years, and had trained him for many years, but he still had no eyesight at all.

If the Li family is really handed over to him in the future, wouldn’t the ancestral foundation be ruined?

He looked at the bastard and said:

"Zhong'er, tell me why our Li family wants to move here."

"Yes, father"

In comparison, the young patriarch was full of complaints.

Li Yunzhong has a calmer temperament and his cultivation is the highest among the Yun generation, already in the middle stage of Qi training:
"Father, we moved to Hulishan for three reasons"

"First, the Fu family liberated Uncle Seven and Aunt Seven from the tea garden, which is a favor to our Li family."

"Secondly, the head of the Fu family seems to be asking for our opinions, but in fact, we have to move regardless of whether we agree or not."

"Of course, the most important thing is that the Heike clan has closed its doors to the outside world. Even when their fiefdom, Pingshan County, was looted by the Fu family, the Heike clan did not make any move. Moreover, the Heike clan has been closed to the outside world for many years, and many of their elders have not appeared in public for a long time. Judging from various signs, the Heike clan can no longer protect itself, let alone the life and death of our affiliated forces."

"On the other hand, the Fu family is different."

"Seventeen years ago, there were only four cultivators left in the Fu family. But under the leadership of the Fu family master, they have now made a name for themselves. This time, they have captured all the mortals in Pingshan County. If I am not mistaken, it will not be long before the Fu family is promoted to a true ninth-grade family. This is to prepare for it."

"The Heike family is declining, but the Fu family is thriving. It is our Li family's good fortune that we are able to become the first affiliated family of the Fu family."

"And I have explored this lake and mountain, and I estimate that I can open up thirty acres of spiritual farmland. Uncle Seven and Aunt Seven are good at planting, and with them around, our Li family will definitely be able to live better than before."

Well organized.

There were even many things that the older people present had not thought of, but the other party listed them one by one.

Therefore, everyone present, except the young patriarch and his mother, cast admiring glances at Li Yunzhong. If they had not been concerned about the presence of the young patriarch, they would have applauded and praised him.

The young patriarch felt the atmosphere of the scene.

When he looked at his half-brother Li Yunzhong, murderous intent flashed across his eyes.

The head of the clan, Chief Li, nodded to Li Yunzhong with great satisfaction:
"Zhong'er, you have thought it through very thoroughly. Very good."

"The reason we gathered everyone together this time is actually because of another important matter. The head of the Fu family has decided to choose a Qi training clan member from their Fu family to marry into our Li family. However, the marriage partner will be determined by the Fu family. Those who are present and unmarried have hope."

Once the marriage is successful.

That means you are really tied to the Fu family.

and.

Whoever can marry the daughter of the Fu family will have a backer. Even if the Li family rules stipulate that the eldest son inherits the family business, once the Fu family interferes, the person who marries the daughter of the Fu family will most likely become the next head of the family.

and so.

Rather than talking about the Fu family's designated son-in-law.

It would be better to say that the Fu family is selecting the next head of the Li family.

The young clan leader immediately became nervous and looked at his half-brother on the opposite side, with a calculating look flashing across his eyes.

Nanyang County.

Fu Changsheng was piloting the flying boat, looking at the Luofeng Mountain right in front of him with a sigh.

Since moving to the fiefdom.

He never came back.

Several years passed.

Because of his training in the [Training Room], it felt like he had not returned to his clan land for decades.

The eldest brother Fu Changren, who was in charge of the clan land, had received the message long ago and had been waiting at the mountain gate for most of the day. When he saw the flying boat coming from the Changliu River from afar, he hurriedly took a few steps and excitedly bowed and said:

"Welcome home, Master!"

Fu Changsheng swept his spiritual sense and found that his elder brother's aura had broken through to the middle stage of Qi training. Although his elder brother's aptitude was not good, the "Dragon Elephant Prajna Sutra" was an earth-level martial art after all, and the speed of cultivation was not comparable to ordinary martial arts.

After a group of people entered the mountain.

After taking a seat at Luofeng Mountain.

Fu Changren handed a book to Fu Changsheng and said with a happy face:
"Patriarch, since Runzhi broke through to become a second-level weapon refiner, our clan's income has doubled. In addition, my third brother and Chen Dachu have developed a recipe for a first-level premium spirit wine. Over the past few years, we have accumulated nearly 20,000 spirit stones at Luofeng Mountain, of which Runzhi alone has contributed a quarter."

"also"

"I have already converted all these spirit stones into medium-grade spirit stones according to your instructions. It will not be a problem to use them to upgrade the spirit vein of Luofeng Mountain to the first-grade best quality."

“In a few years”

"The clan should be able to accumulate another batch of spirit stones to upgrade the spirit vein to the second level!"

Today, the Fu family's population, including the population of the fiefdom, has reached more than 300,000, which has met the criteria for advancement to a ninth-grade family.

Also.

Molan has been in seclusion and has broken through to the foundation.

If there are no accidents.

The clan will soon have a second foundation-building person.

to this end.

The only condition that did not meet the standards for their promotion to a ninth-grade family was the spiritual vein before them.

Fu Changsheng nodded slightly and said:

"Brother, you have worked hard in the past few years. The clan doesn't need to be too frugal. I plan to go to the Shiwan Mountains to upgrade the spiritual stones of Luofeng Mountain. If I can hunt a second-level monster, I can give the materials to Runzhi to refine a second-level magic weapon. I will use the talisman blood to refine a second-level spiritual talisman and then sell it. I should be able to accumulate the spiritual stones needed to upgrade the spiritual vein soon."

"Master, the Shiwan Mountains are dangerous. It's better not to go if you can. Anyway, the deadline given to us by the court is ten years, and there is still more than half of it. We have plenty of time."

Fu Changren still didn't want Fu Changsheng to take any risks.

Fu Changsheng said a few words to comfort her.

He had to go to the Shiwan Mountains to look for the ancient monk's cave anyway, so it was just a side trip. In addition, the Demon Cave was about to erupt, and if he didn't want to become cannon fodder, he had to stand on the same level as the other families.

After the two exchanged a few words.

Fu Changsheng said:

"Brother, there are more and more people in our Fu family now. I plan to re-establish the Elder Hall. The standard for entering the Elder Hall is also very simple. One is to have broken through to the second level in the Hundred Arts of Cultivation, and the other is to have broken through to the foundation-building stage. What do you think?"
