Chapter 371: First Battle with Gu Master (Please Subscribe, Please Bookmark)
For the Sun family, perhaps having a Jindan-stage cultivator is a goal that all the ancestors have had and worked hard for since the family was founded in Shenquan Mountain.
However, a late-stage foundation-building cultivator is an important guarantee and deterrent for the family's stable inheritance and current position. Relatively speaking, its importance is far greater than that of a Jindan-stage cultivator in the misty world.
At the beginning, Sun Changfeng relied on the eighth-level foundation-building cultivation to win a stable period of about a hundred years for the Sun family. Sun Shengyuan did not hesitate to consume his own potential at the cost of his only goal, which was to advance to the late-stage foundation-building stage and ensure the stable inheritance of the family.
Now this goal has begun to shift to Sun Mingsheng's body little by little, because among the only eight foundation-building cultivators in the family, including the dual-spiritual-root cultivator Sun Mingzeng, he is the only one who has this hope.
After all, life span does not wait for anyone. Once life span is exhausted, even if there are means like the Great Luo Immortal, they can only watch him die.
As a foundation-building cultivator who grew up under the protection of his family, he naturally knew the importance of this task. He would not refuse this task and would go all out to complete it.
"I know clearly how difficult this task is, but be careful. Your future is different from ours. You will definitely not stop at the late stage of foundation-building. You must not rashly consume your own cultivation potential in order to break through the seventh level. It is better to wait for more time and pursue a balance that will come naturally." Sun Shengmei kept reminding him.
Sun Mingzeng and Sun Mingsheng, the former has the advantage of dual spiritual roots in cultivation qualifications, which is a natural advantage that cannot be compensated by acquired factors; the latter has the advantage of ascending all the way since the foundation-building, and has never lacked various opportunities and luck, as well as hard and continuous cultivation. The combination of the two has made his cultivation in a state of rapid progress.
"Don't worry, grandma, I know what I am doing. I will never give up the future path for a temporary achievement." Sun Mingsheng naturally has a very clear understanding of this.
Half an hour later, all the spoils were distributed, and the fifty Qi Refining cultivators on Lingtao Mountain were carrying out construction projects one by one in an orderly manner, fully promoting the construction of the entire family branch.
In the short term, there is no need for foundation-building cultivators to take action, so in addition to some routine inspections every morning and evening, Sun Mingsheng's main energy is to focus on polishing his cultivation.
The cultivation of cultivators is against the will of heaven, and there must be no slackness in the entire cultivation process. As the saying goes, cultivation is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat.
Daily meditation practice may not feel obvious improvement every day for a foundation-building cultivator, but over time there will definitely be gains, which is a kind of long-term effort.
The Lingtao Mountain family branch basically changes every day. Houses with different effects are built, and spiritual fields are successfully developed. And the seeds of spiritual rice are planted in them at the first time, which is completely hope for the future.
Some water-attributed cultivators performed the Spirit Rain Technique on spiritual fields and spiritual medicine gardens, gathering the dark clouds in the sky together and irrigating the spiritual fields to promote the growth of spiritual rice.
It was under this careful care that the first batch of spiritual rice had begun to sprout. The entire Lingtao Mountain was no longer as peaceful as before, and was filled with orderly vitality and hope.
Of course, as the most precious spiritual objects on the entire Lingshan Mountain, the 162 spiritual peach trees were given special care.
Among all the spiritual peach trees, the number of first-grade lower-quality trees was as high as 80, the number of first-grade middle-quality trees was 45, the number of first-grade upper-quality trees was 16, and the number of second-grade lower-quality trees was 1.
The time required for spiritual peach trees of different grades to bloom and bear fruit was completely different. The first-grade lower-quality trees could mature once a year, and each spiritual peach tree could produce more than 30 fragrant spiritual peaches, which had obvious auxiliary effects for cultivators in the early and middle stages of Qi training.
The first-grade middle-grade spiritual peach tree matures once every two years, and each spiritual peach tree can produce 20 spiritual peaches; the first-grade upper-grade spiritual peach tree takes four years to mature, and each tree can produce 15 spiritual peaches.
The second-grade lower-grade spiritual peach tree located on the top of the mountain also takes ten years to mature each time, provided that sufficient spiritual power is supplied.
Of course, the Sun family has been passed down for nearly a thousand years, and naturally has some unique experience in the cultivation of various spiritual plants. After all, it is relatively easy to cultivate spiritual plants, and it is also an indispensable auxiliary skill in the process of a family's development and growth.
When Sun Shengmei was young, she was a first-grade upper-grade spiritual plant. This time, she returned to her old job and, with her powerful cultivation as the foundation, it did not take long for her to upgrade her spiritual plant to the second-grade lower-grade.
These spiritual peach trees are mainly taken care of by her. She uses special means to process the bones of the white-collar golden monkey to a certain extent, and then uses them as a special fertilizer to promote the growth of the spiritual peach trees.
After the entire tribe of white-collar golden monkeys was wiped out, except for some losses caused by an occasional attack from a second-level medium-quality bird passing by, the entire family was basically in an orderly development state.
After the second-level medium-grade earth element crystal formation consisting of 35 formation flags purchased by the family at a high price was set up, all the cultivators had a real sense of security, and the entire family was initially rooted. As long as it did not suffer a devastating blow in the future, Lingtao Mountain, located deep in the Shiwan Mountains, would become the real sphere of influence of the Sun family.
The sun rises and the moon sets, day and night alternate, and half a year passes in a flash
In the busy half year, the entire Lingtao Mountain has almost changed a lot, with layers of houses and spiritual peach trees alternating with each other, and there is a special charm in it.
The spiritual fields opened up in different locations have also grown spiritual seedlings of different lengths. In the spiritual medicine garden at the foot of the mountain, green spiritual medicines are also protruding from the ground.
"It's only been a few years since I came here to pick peaches, but someone has already occupied the entire mountain? It's outrageous." Quiet days are always limited. One day, a cultivator dressed in colorful clothes appeared outside Lingtao Mountain, with an unbelievable look on his face.
"Who is coming? This is the residence of the Sun family. Do you have an invitation letter from the elders of the family?" At the foot of the mountain, on a specially built stone gate, a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi training stood up.
Of course, in front of this cultivator, there is still a layer of khaki light shield and a crystal stone the size of an ordinary person as a defense to avoid unexpected disasters.
After all, for the tribal cultivators here, they are outsiders after all. With the character of these tribal cultivators, the possibility of peaceful coexistence between the two sides is not too high. Perhaps the only difference is the length of time it takes for the cultivators to discover the changes here.
