Chapter 730: Changes in family monks, working together for development (Happy Mid-Autumn Festival)

Half a month later, in the meeting hall of the Song family.

Song Qingming, Huang Siyuan, and Song Qingyu, the three Jindan ancestors, sat at the head, and the other foundation-building elders of the Song family were already sitting on both sides of the hall.

After deciding with Song Qingyu and Huang Siyuan on the family's next strategy for development to the north, Song Qingming notified Song Yuanfang to call back the family's foundation-building elders outside to "Funiu Mountain" to discuss the matter.

More than 20 years have passed since the monster turmoil. Today, the overall family strength of the Song family has not only recovered to the level before the turmoil, but has also become stronger than before.

Looking at the many foundation-building elders of the family sitting in front of them, Song Qingming and Song Qingyu also showed some satisfaction with the development and changes of the family.

In addition to Song Qingming and the three Jindan ancestors, the Song family has added three foundation-building elders in the past ten years. Now the number of foundation-building cultivators has reached 16, which is not much different from the peak of the Ma family.

The three new foundation-building elders are Song Xuanying of the "Xuan" generation, Song Linfeng and Song Linrui of the "Lin" generation.

Among the three, Song Linrui has the best talent for cultivation. He is the second double-spiritual root cultivator in the Song family. He is just over 30 years old, but he has successfully built his foundation. His cultivation speed is a few points faster than Song Yuanli, who also has double spiritual roots.

This is also due to the fact that the Song family is now a golden elixir immortal clan, and its strength is far greater than when Song Yuanli went up the mountain. The cultivation resources that the family can provide to Song Linrui are also better than those of Song Yuanli.

Song Xuanying and Song Linfeng are two ordinary three-spiritual root aptitudes, and they do not have particularly outstanding cultivation talents. Both of them succeeded in building their foundations in their forties, which is not much different from Song Qingming back then.

However, Song Xuanying has a good talent in spiritual plants. Before he succeeded in building his foundation, he has already raised the level of spiritual plants to the second-level lower grade. His spiritual plant talent is not much worse than that of Song Yuanxue back then.

Thanks to such a powerful immortal cultivation skill, Song Xuanying was able to collect enough merits to exchange for foundation-building pills earlier than many peers in the clan, and successfully built his foundation and became a family elder.

In addition to the three elders who had just started to build their foundation, the other foundation-building elders of the Song family had also made significant changes in their cultivation after so many years.

The few people who chose to leave the family to go out for training, except Song Yuanli who has not returned yet, have now returned to the family one after another, and each of them has gained a lot in their training.

Among them, Song Changze and Liu Yuxin, who went to Qin State, gained a lot of knowledge while traveling abroad. The two also got an opportunity in the market to explore the cave of a Jindan cultivator who had been sitting for many years.

Although they went a little late and someone had already got there first, the careful Liu Yuxin still found a missed third-level spiritual object from it, and the two exchanged it for a lot of spiritual stones.

With these spiritual stones in hand, Liu Yuxin not only successfully broke through to the late stage of foundation building, but Song Changze's cultivation level has also reached the eighth level of foundation building.

Now Song Changze and his wife are both late stage cultivators of foundation building. In the eyes of many cultivators of the Song family, they have become the seeds of the family that can form pills. Their prestige has gradually surpassed other elders of the family, and is only slightly inferior to Song Yuanfang, who has been in charge of the family for many years.

Song Yuanhao, who chose to go to the southeast of "Taiyue Lake" Song State, also had a good opportunity.

After arriving in Song State, he got the opportunity to participate in a secret realm trial opened by "Hunyuan Sect" as he wished. Not only did he get a lot of spiritual objects from the secret realm, he also found a third-level lower-grade spiritual medicine.

However, when Song Yuanhao was competing with others for spiritual objects in the secret realm, he was unlucky enough to meet a powerful late stage master of foundation building.

After a battle, although Song Yuanhao successfully escaped with the second-level upper-grade spiritual talisman given to him by Song Qingming, he was seriously injured and it took more than a year for him to recover slowly.

Because of the delay in his cultivation due to his injury, Song Yuanhao did not successfully break through to the seventh level of foundation building until a few years ago, and he was one step behind Liu Yuxin in cultivation.

However, Song Yuanhao's travels this time also increased his knowledge and fighting ability. In addition, he is still a cultivator with different spiritual roots who is not inferior to double spiritual roots. As long as he practices diligently, he will have a great chance to surpass Song Changze and Liu Yuxin and succeed in forming a pill first in the future.

Song Yuanqian and Song Yuanxue also left the family to practice, but compared with others, their opportunities were a little worse. They only gained some knowledge and did not get any high-level spiritual objects.

Now the cultivation of the two is still in the middle stage of foundation building, which is a little slower than the cultivation speed of Song Changze and others.

Among them, Song Yuanxue has cultivated to the sixth level of foundation building, and is not far from the late stage of foundation building. Because Song Yuanqian built her foundation relatively late, her cultivation has just broken through the fifth level of foundation building.

Now, many of the foundation-building elders of the Song family who were arranged by Song Qingming to go out for training have returned to the family. Only Song Yuanli has been in Wu for more than ten years and has not returned yet, which makes Song Qingming a little worried.

If he hadn't seen that Song Yuanli had sent a message back during this period, and the life card he left in the family did not have any accidents, Song Qingming would have planned to go out to find him.

Many foundation-building cultivators in the family went out for training. Some had good luck and found their own opportunities, while others had bad luck and gained mediocre results. These were all expected by Song Qingming.

After all, personal opportunities are difficult to figure out, and you can't definitely encounter them when you go out for training.

Regardless of whether these younger generations of the family have gained anything outside, as long as they can come back safely, Song Qingming will be very relieved.

Now, more than a dozen foundation-building cultivators in the family, except Song Yuanli who has not returned yet and Song Xuanting who is stationed in "Shuangfeng Mountain", have all come to the family's "meeting room".

At present, the Song family has a total of 16 foundation-building elders, among which there are four late-stage foundation-building cultivators, namely Song Yuanli who had cultivated to the eighth level of foundation-building before going out for training, Song Changze who successfully broke through a few years ago, and Liu Yuxin and Song Yuanhao who are at the seventh level of foundation-building.

There are six mid-stage foundation-building cultivators, among whom Song Yuanfang and Song Yuanxue have cultivated to the sixth level of foundation-building, while Song Yuanqian, Huang Leqing and Song Xuanting are still at the fifth level of foundation-building.

The last mid-stage foundation-building elder, Song Xuanqing, successfully broke through to the mid-stage foundation-building a few years ago, and his current cultivation level is only the fourth level of foundation-building.

The remaining six early-stage foundation-building elders, Song Xuanfeng, Song Xuanyu, Song Xuanling, Song Xuanying, Song Linfeng and Song Linrui, have not cultivated for a long time, and basically they succeeded in building their foundations after the monsters and beasts rioted.

At present, their cultivation is still at the first and second levels of foundation building. Only Song Xuanfeng has a slightly higher cultivation level, and has reached the peak of the third level of foundation building, not far from breaking through to the middle stage of foundation building.

In addition to the changes in foundation building cultivators, the number of Qi refining cultivators and mortals in the Song family has also increased significantly in recent years.

After the monster turmoil, after more than 20 years of recuperation, the number of cultivators in the Song family has also ushered in a wave of explosions, and now it has exceeded more than 600 people.

Although there is still some distance compared to the peak of nearly a thousand cultivators in the Ma family, as long as the family develops slowly, the number of cultivators in the Song family will sooner or later exceed this number.

Thanks to the peace in Qinghe County for so many years, the number of mortals in the family has also steadily increased a lot. Not long ago, it has been counted to more than 900,000, and it is not far from exceeding one million.

Because of the development of the family, these mortals in the family are no longer limited to "Funiu Mountain" and are scattered in every corner of Qinghe County.

Qinghefang, Chiyanfang, Shuangfeng Mountain, Baiyang Mountain, basically, wherever the Song family's industries are affected, there are family mortals settled here to help the monks manage these industries.

Even the "Tuoyun Mountain" thousands of miles away now has the Song family monks leaving mortal blood there.

Glancing at the many family elders in front of him, seeing that everyone was already there, Song Qingming took the lead in speaking out the purpose of summoning everyone.

"The purpose of inviting you back to discuss matters today, Yuan Fang should have informed you, so I won't go into details.

Now that the family is developing so fast, we certainly can't be limited to this small area of ​​Qinghe County. We should find a way to expand our influence.

Otherwise, if we are trapped in a corner, no matter how many cultivation resources we have, sooner or later we will be exhausted, which is not conducive to the future development of the family. I have decided to organize monks to open up wasteland and expand territory in the north in the near future.

You are all family elders. If you have any opinions or ideas, you can say them now. Everyone is free to speak, don't be too restrained."

"Monster beast The turmoil has just passed, and now is a good time for the family to develop. I agree with the idea of ​​the clan leader to expand the territory to the north! "

"What Uncle Sixteen said is right. The family is now well-staffed. There are dozens of vassal families in Qinghe and Pingyang counties that can be deployed. We can expand our power a long time ago.

Now there are no powerful monsters in the many spiritual mountain territories to the north of Jinshanfang. Without the help of several ancestors, we can easily sweep all the spiritual mountains within a thousand miles. "

"I also agree to expand the territory."

Hearing the idea of ​​Song Qingming, the clan leader, that the family will expand the territory to the north, Song Yuanfang, who was sitting at the top, immediately stood up and echoed.

Many other family elders also stood up and agreed after hearing this, and no one had any objections.

Any low-level family in the world of immortal cultivation, once it advances to a high-level Jindan or Yuanying force, will basically quickly expand its power outward.

The Song family has been a Jindan immortal family for many years, and has only created the "Chiyanfang" market. It has never vigorously expanded its territory. Many cultivators in the family have long been dissatisfied with this.

Over the years, many family elders, including Song Yuanfang, have proposed to expand the territory.

However, due to the fact that the family has just been promoted to a Jindan family, the number of cultivators is insufficient and the foundation is somewhat unstable. Song Qingming has focused his main energy on his own practice and supporting Song Qingyu and the others in the formation of Dan, and has always been conservative about the family's expansion of territory.

At this moment, hearing that Song Qingming, the patriarch, has the idea of ​​expanding the territory, these foundation-building elders naturally agree with it in their hearts, and all of them show a bit of excitement on their faces.

The expansion of family power can also bring a lot of resources to the Song family. At that time, every family cultivator can benefit from it, and these foundation-building elders can of course also share a lot of benefits.

These are all in front of them. The interests of all of them are in front of them. They are eager for the family to expand as soon as possible, and naturally no one will jump out to oppose it at this time.

The Song family territory, to the west and south, is bordered by other counties of the Wei State, and there is no room for expansion, so it can only develop to the east and north.

Although there are no high-level demon kings in the "Yunwu Mountain" in the east, it is surrounded by mountains and many places have miasma that is not suitable for mortals to survive, which is very troublesome to control.

So far, the Song family has only found a place like "Chiyanfang" that is more suitable for development eastward. After so many years of development, although it has expanded into many new territories, the development space is also relatively limited.

Although there are many mountains at the junction of the Fuyun Mountain Range in the north, the terrain there is relatively flat, and the living environment is much better than that of the "Yunwu Mountain". It is currently the best direction for the Song family to expand their territory.

After hearing everyone's impassioned speeches, Song Qingming smiled and nodded slightly: "Since the family has decided to expand its territory to the north, naturally it cannot just take some second-level spiritual mountains in such a small way, otherwise there is no need to call you all back. .

I already have a goal in mind, which is to directly capture the third-level spiritual vein of Baishi Ridge as our Song family's frontline against the northern monsters in the future, and prevent the war from spreading to the territories of Pingyang and Qinghe counties at will.

If none of you have any objections, then the matter will be settled.

Except for Yuan Fang, Yuan Qian, Yue Qing, Xuan Feng and Xuan Qing who stayed behind in the family, the others will go to Baishi Ridge with me on the expedition two months later. "

"I will obey the order of the clan leader!" Song Qingming had just given the order, and many of the selected family elders present immediately felt happy and responded in unison.

Only Song Yuanqian and Song Xuanqing, who were named by Song Qingming personally, showed a bit of disappointment on their faces, and seemed a little regretful that they were not chosen to participate in the family's next expansion of territory.

Although the Song family is a powerful family, from the very beginning, the ancestors followed the good merit system of the "Xiaoyao Sect" and established the family's "Cangjin Pavilion" to evaluate and manage the family's monks.

Every member of the Song family will have their own account book in the family's "Hidden Gold Pavilion", and all their merits and demerits in the family will also be recorded.

All those who have made meritorious deeds for the family, regardless of the size of their merits, can receive the family's good deeds issued by the "Hidden Gold Pavilion", and then use the "Hidden Gold Pavilion" to exchange for various spiritual objects and cultivation resources that they need.

If you want to prove your worth to others in the family and get more support from the family, the family merits recorded in the "Hidden Gold Pavilion" are the most important proof for evaluating each clan member.

For every member of the Song family, the family's good deeds are what they have always dreamed of and want most.

Because in the future, the family's support for foundation building will still be pill formation. If you don't have enough "Hidden Golden Pavilion" good deeds in your hand, it will definitely be difficult to compete with others in the selection, and you will only miss the opportunity and path.

But it is not easy for ordinary monks to obtain good deeds for their families. They must be able to make meritorious deeds for their families.

Moreover, daily practice requires a lot of cultivation resources, which will consume the family's good deeds. Some clan members who have just entered the mountain during the Qi Refining Period, like Song Qingming when his cultivation level was low, cannot accumulate much merit throughout the year.

Even the family's foundation-building elders, apart from guarding the family's Lingshan property and occasionally using their immortal cultivation skills to undertake family tasks, rarely have the opportunity to obtain good deeds from the family.

Only people like Song Yuanxue, who have a very outstanding high-level immortal cultivation skill and can earn family merit faster than others, will live a more comfortable life.

Now that the family is expanding, it is a great opportunity for all the Song family to make contributions to the family. Naturally, they feel very regretful that they were not selected.

Just after the family meeting ended, Song Yuanqian and Song Xuanqing specially approached Song Yuanfang, the family's chief steward, and asked him to help talk to several ancestors and give them a chance to contribute to the family.

In this regard, Song Yuanfang also had some helplessness on his face. The important matter of the family's expansion of territory to the north could not be completed in a day or two.

With so many monks in the family, including ancestors like Song Qingming and others, leaving the family, some monks must be left to guard the spiritual mountains in the family. No matter who Song Qingming chooses, there will always be someone who misses this opportunity.

"You two are determined to contribute to the family. Of course I agree with this, but now that the family has so many properties, no one can stay to take care of it. Don't you think so?

To be honest, if my seventh uncle hadn't personally called me by name, I would have wanted to go to the front line. I have been staying in the family all these years, and my hands and feet have become more and more numb.

Since the ancestor has chosen us to stay and trusts us, everyone should patiently do the things at hand and stop thinking about it. I believe that he will not forget us when he comes back. "

Hearing Song Yuanfang's comfort, Song Yuanqian who was standing aside couldn't help but sigh and said: "Alas! It's not easy to have an opportunity to contribute to the family, but we can only miss it in vain. We are really unlucky this time.

It seems that it will be difficult for us to see this opportunity to form elixirs in the future. "

She had been traveling for many years but had never been able to find an opportunity, and in the end had to return empty-handed. Song Yuanqian had always envied Song Changze and others who also had opportunities while traveling.

Nowadays, the great opportunity for the family to expand overseas can only be missed in vain. At this moment, Song Yuanqian couldn't help but lament that her luck has been really bad these years.

Seeing this, Song Yuanfang's face changed slightly, and he immediately shook his head and reprimanded: "You are only at the fifth level of foundation building now, and you haven't even reached the late stage of foundation building yet, so why are you always thinking about forming pills.

How can you achieve the golden elixir path by being so ambitious? I think you still need to learn more from Changze and the others. The right way is to improve your own cultivation first. "

Ever since he was recognized by the patriarch, Song Qingming, Song Yuanfang has been in charge of the family's affairs over the years, and his prestige in the family is not comparable to that of ordinary foundation-building elders.

Even people like Song Yuanli and Song Changze who are now higher than him in cultivation are respectful in front of Song Yuanfang and have great respect for him, the great steward of the family.

Seeing that her brother, who had always been very kind in front of others, suddenly turned a little angry, Song Yuanqian was also shocked and quickly lowered her head, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.

Seeing this, Song Xuanqing, who was standing aside, quickly stepped forward to smooth things over for her and said: "Haha! What Uncle Sixteen said is that my cultivation is still shallow now, so it is indeed too early to discuss the matter of forming pills. .

Moreover, the golden elixir road is so difficult. There are tens of thousands of monks in our country, and how many of us are lucky enough to successfully form elixirs.

Even in the Xiaoyao Sect, few people have this self-confidence. Why should we bother ourselves with this trouble? We should first improve our cultivation steadily and wait for the opportunity. "

"When the seventh uncle went out to form elixirs, even though I was still a young practitioner, I could already remember the events. I knew how difficult it was for him at that time. These things are not as simple as you think.

Not to mention a few of us, Uncle Eight has been a member of the Xiaoyao Sect for many years and his talent is worse than ours. Even with the support of the sect and obtaining the pill-forming spiritual objects, he still can't get through this level.

It's in vain that you, as an elder, have been building foundations for so many years, but your cultivation is not as thorough as Xuan Qing's. "Hearing Song Xuanqing's blunt words, Song Yuanfang nodded slightly in approval, and his expression softened a little.

Song Yuanqian, who had received a scolding, now saw that Song Yuanfang's face looked better, so she quickly nodded humbly and said: "I just said that I didn't mean anything else, Brother Sixteen, don't be angry.

When Song Yuanfang heard this, he sighed calmly and said: "I know you said it unintentionally, but the family is developing so fast now, and there are many people and it is inevitable that the words will be mixed, so you should pay more attention to the influence of everything.

Now is the time when the family is developing and expanding its territory. What you said just now is not conducive to the unity of the family. You can just say it in front of me. If the ancestors on the top of the mountain hear it, how should you explain it.

When something happens, don't just try to be happy for a while, think more about the consequences. "

"Brother Sixteen, I know I was wrong, and I will pay more attention in the future." After hearing Song Yuanfang's explanation, Song Yuanqian also came back to her senses, realized that what she just said was wrong, and hurriedly responded to the other party's reminder.

When Song Yuanfang saw this, he waved his hands with some relief and said, "As long as you know about it, I will remind my seventh uncle about this matter when I have the chance.

The old man is always fair in his work, and he will definitely not treat us badly. You don't have to worry about this. You can go back without worries.

No matter who in the family has the opportunity to form a pill in the future, I hope you don't think too much about it.

Now the family is developing well. As long as we all work together, things will always get better and better in the future. Maybe each of us will have a chance to form a pill, so why rush. "

"Well! Thank you very much, Brother Sixteen. We will go back first and not disturb you."

Knowing that Song Yuanfang had taken this matter to heart, Song Yuanqian and Song Xuanqing also showed a bit of joy on their faces, and they nodded quickly to leave. (End of chapter)
