Chapter 497 Song Yuanxue and Song Changze

After so many years of development in the Song family, the ancient, long, and green generations of monks who grew up with Song Qingming and Song Qingyu have all come to an end. The family's Qi Refining monks have now passed into the hands of the new, Yuan, and Chang generations of monks.

There are a total of twenty-eight monks in the "new" generation. Except for Song Xinyu, who has joined Xiaoyao Sect, no one else has successfully built the foundation. The potential of this generation of monks has been exhausted. Except for Song Xinde, a second-level refiner, The weapon master, the others did not have any outstanding performance.

Nowadays, the elders of the "new" generation of monks are over a hundred years old. Except for those who have died, the remaining ones will gradually withdraw from the family history in another twenty or thirty years. stage.

The monks of the "Yuan" generation are now the core of the Song family, with a total of more than forty people. Their generation not only produced two foundation-building monks, Song Yuanli and Song Yuanfang, but also many monks with outstanding abilities.

Among them, Song Yuantong, who controls the family's law enforcement team, and Song Yuanxue, who manages the family's spiritual field, perform the most outstandingly. They have now been successfully promoted to family elders and participated in the core rights of the Song family.

Before the banquet started, Song Qingming also specially commended the monks of the Song family who performed best during the monster turmoil. Among them, the one who received the best reward was Song Yuantong of the "Yuan" generation.

Song Yuantong not only has outstanding cultivation, but also has rich experience in fighting enemies on the battlefield. In this monster turmoil, he defeated more than a dozen monsters by himself. He is the best performer among all the Qi refining monks in the Song family. He is also very decisive. Since he took over the family law enforcement team, the Song family has organized more demon hunting teams than before, and many new generation of young monks have been given the opportunity to train.

However, Song Yuan's psychic root talent is not very high. He is just a four-spirit root monk. His cultivation speed is not as good as Song Yuanli and Song Yuanfang. He did not reach the ninth level of Qi refining until he was almost seventy years old. The hope of building a foundation is now not as good as the others. The younger generation.

Another family elder, Song Yuanxue, ranks relatively low among the "Yuan" generation, and is slightly younger than Song Yuanli. Although she is a Three Spiritual Root cultivator, her cultivation talent is average and she was just promoted to the cultivation level not long ago. Nine levels of Qi.

Although Song Yuanxue's cultivation speed is not very fast, and she is not good at fighting with others, she is very talented in spiritual planting. She has upgraded this immortal cultivation skill to the second level a few years ago, becoming the only second level spiritual planting in the Song family. division.

Because of the rules set by Song Qingming, the ancestor of the family, the Song family has always attached great importance to those clan members who can master an immortal cultivation technique. Because of this, Song Yuanxue has now been promoted to the family elder like his elder Song Xinde. It has become an example for other monks in the family to follow.

The new generation of "Chang" monks from the Song family are not very old yet and have just emerged in the family. However, there are also several juniors with good cultivation talents who have reached the late stage of Qi refining. Among them, the ninth one is ranked ninth. Song Changze has the best cultivation talent.

Song Changze is a junior monk from the lineage of his fourth uncle Song Changqiu. He has cultivated the three spiritual roots to the eighth level of Qi refining at the age of thirty-one. He is currently the fastest among the generation with the name "Chang". In terms of position, it is slightly inferior to Song Yuanli, who had two spiritual roots back then. He is also a junior who Song Qingming is very optimistic about who can build the foundation.

When his fourth uncle Song Changqiu was managing the family store in Qinghefang, he still took some care of Song Qingming. To have a monk with such talent as Song Changze among his descendants, Song Qingming was very happy for him.

After the monster turmoil ended and returned to Qinghe County, Song Qingming, who was determined to support Song Changze in building a foundation in the future, took him from Funiu Mountain to Qinghefang, and kept the others by his side to train him personally. Song Changze was so valued by the family ancestors. , which has made many tribesmen here in Funiu Mountain envious in recent years.

In addition to the members of the Song family, the Song family has also recruited many casual cultivators with good moral character and ability over the years to become family guest monks. At first, these family guest monks only helped run the family business on the periphery of the family. Over time, After the marriage, many people also entered the Song family and became part of the Song family.

Fu Sanshan, whom Song Qingming picked up from the mountain back then, was also loved by many elders of the Song family because of his outstanding skills in brewing spiritual wine. In recent years, under the arrangement of the elders of the Song family, he also adopted a female nun from Yuan Dynasty. , completely stayed in the Song family.

Over the years in Funiu Mountain, Fu Sanshan has also helped the Song family train several winemakers. The Song family's spiritual wine business is now not only sold in Qinghefang, but also from several cities around Jiangling County. People come to Funiu Mountain every year. Order spiritual wine, the Song family's new spiritual wine shop in Jinshanfang is about to open soon.

A few days after the family banquet ended, news finally came out from Guyang Mountain that the Xiaoyao Sect had started refining the Foundation Building Pill. Soon Song Qingming also received a secret message from the Shanggong Pavilion of the Xiaoyao Sect, informing them to go to the sect to receive a set of pills. A foundation building pill.

After getting this Foundation Establishment Pill, Song Qingming summoned several Foundation Establishment elders from his family to his cave to discuss the next candidate for the family's support for Foundation Establishment.

Although the Song family now has many elders in charge of various affairs, they can usually go to the family meeting hall to participate in family affairs, but now only the elders of the family's foundation establishment and above are eligible to participate in such important matters as deciding on the ownership of the Foundation Establishment Pill. The final decision is usually made by Song Qingming, the clan leader.

After a hundred years of development, not only has the number of monks in the Song family increased by hundreds, but with better spiritual veins and more cultivation resources, the overall cultivation speed of the monks in the Song family is also much faster than before. , many tribesmen with four spiritual roots can now reach the ninth level of Qi refining before the age of sixty.

In addition to Song Changze, whom Song Qingming is most optimistic about, there are many juniors in the Song family who are suitable for foundation building. Among the Yuan generation alone, there are several people who can cultivate to the ninth level of Qi refining before the age of sixty. In addition to the Chang generation, Besides Song Changze, there are also two other people who are hopeful of building a foundation.

"The family is suitable for foundation-building people. Yuan Fang has already listed them, and everyone has seen it. There is only one foundation-building pill now. It is definitely impossible for so many people to have the opportunity to build a foundation. Let's talk about who to support first. suitable."

After seeing Song Yuanli, who was responsible for managing the family's general affairs, listed seven or eight names, Song Qingming also frowned slightly. Whenever it was necessary to decide the fate of these younger members of the family, Song Qingming would always feel that it was difficult to make a choice.

With the rapid growth in the number of monks in the family, there will also be more and more people in the Song family who are suitable for foundation building in the future. Even if Song Qingming had the intention, he would not be able to provide foundation building pills to every monk in the family who is suitable for foundation building. , there must not be many people who are lucky enough to be selected by the family to support the foundation building. There will always be a majority of the clan members who still have to make sacrifices.

Fortunately, since the Song family was promoted to become the Jindan family, the family now has Song Qingming, the ancestor of the Jindan family. Obtaining the Foundation Establishment Pill is not as difficult as before. Even if some members of the clan are not selected this time, they will have better luck and wait until the family After getting the Foundation Establishment Pill again, they still have another opportunity to fight for the Foundation Establishment.

Now all the immortal cultivating families in the territory of Pingyang and Qinghe counties have been placed under the command of Funiu Mountain. The tributes handed in by so many cultivating families every year have increased the financial income of the entire Song family several times in the past few years. In the future, going to Xiaoyao Sect to redeem and purchase Foundation Establishment Pills will not require the Song family to strain their muscles and bones as before.

After Song Qingming finished speaking, the four foundation-building elders present looked at the list in their hands. After another moment of looking at each other, Song Qingyu took the lead and said with a smile:

"Except for Changze and Yuan Xue, the others are not very sure about the success of foundation building. Yuan Xue is already quite old. If she misses this time, I am afraid it will delay her path. I am more inclined to support Yuan Xue. Build the foundation.”

"I also agree with my aunt's opinion. Changze has only reached the eighth level of Qi refining now. It will probably take four or five years before he is ready to build the foundation. By the time he builds the foundation, it shouldn't be that difficult to redeem the Xiaoyao Sect's Shanggong Pavilion. Kidan.

Yuan Xue is a Three Spiritual Root cultivator and the only second-level spiritual planter in the family. Over the years, she has made a lot of contributions to the management of the family's elixir garden and spiritual field. As long as the foundation can be successfully established, Yuan Xue will be very important to the family. It will definitely help her future development, and the family should give her a chance. "After hearing that Song Qingyu was leaning towards Song Yuanxue, Song Yuanfang also agreed.

Song Yuanli and Huang Siyuan rarely expressed their opinions in family affairs. At this moment, they did not speak directly and turned their attention to Song Qingming, who needed to make the final decision.

Seeing that neither of them wanted to express their opinions, Song Qingming nodded slightly and said calmly: "Since everyone thinks that Yuan Xue is more suitable for foundation building, let's support Yuan Xue first. The technique she practices is also Breaking Waves. Qing Ming Yu, if you take the trouble to give me some advice, Yuan Xue’s confidence in establishing the foundation should be high.”

Hearing that Song Qingming made a decision so quickly, several people in the meeting hall showed a little surprise on their faces. However, every time they discussed matters, they usually just gave their opinions and always expressed their opinions on the decisions made by Song Qingming, the patriarch. None of them would speak out to object, they all nodded in agreement.

After the meeting, just as everyone was about to return to their respective caves, Song Qingyu stopped Song Qingming on the way, smiled and asked: "Brother Qi, haven't you always been optimistic about Changze, why didn't you say a word to help him just now? You said, it’s not because you don’t want to refute our face!”

"I have my heart to support Changze's foundation building, but after having him stay with me all these years, I always feel that I have too much expectations for him, which puts a lot of pressure on the child. This foundation building pill gives him , I'm afraid it won't help him become enlightened, so he shouldn't be too anxious." Seeing some confusion on Song Qingyu's face, Song Qingming explained calmly.
