The matter of handing over the treasures came to an end, and everyone was in a good mood. They sat down to drink tea and chat, discussing the matter of the Xingyue Fruit.
Lin Shilu picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then asked Lin Shikang about his plan.
Lin Shikang smiled bitterly, and then said:
"I am now at the ninth level of foundation building. I broke through with the help of the Huntian Pill five years ago. It has only been five years. It is hard to say that I will enter the Dzogchen realm. It can be as short as one or two years or as long as ten years. We are talking about this right now. It’s still too early!”
"More importantly, it is not that easy to break through the Golden Core stage. Just preparation will take a long time. Your cultivation level is improving very quickly. I think it will take less than twenty years to try to break through the Golden Core stage. And leave this Xingyue Fruit to Shilu and Tianming!"
Listening to Lin Shikang's words, it is obvious that he intends to give the opportunity to break through the golden elixir to Lin Shilu or Lin Tianming, who have a greater chance of breaking through.
There is indeed a certain reason why he thinks this way.
After all, Lin Shilu is not yet ninety years old, and is already at the sixth level of foundation building, and is not far from the seventh level of foundation building. Once he breaks through, he can still break through to another level with the help of the Huntian Pill.
If everything goes well, there is indeed a high probability that we will try to reach the golden elixir stage within twenty years.
Lin Tianming is not yet thirty years old. Although he is only at the second level of foundation building, his cultivation speed is incredibly fast. With his talent, it is very likely that he will have the conditions to reach the golden elixir stage within thirty years.
From the perspective of potential, Lin Shilu and Lin Tianming have a higher probability of breaking through the golden elixir stage than Lin Shikang. Especially Lin Tianming, as long as no accidents occur, there is at least a 70% chance.
From this point of view, it is a safe way to hand over this heavy hope to Lin Tianming and Lin Shilu, who have greater potential.
It's just that the family needs a longer wait and a more careful plan. Although the reappearance of the Golden Core clan members will be later, with this arrangement, the certainty is greater.
Several people who were well aware of these situations did not speak, and the scene fell into silence.
Lin Tianming was also thinking about this matter. He didn't care so much about this hard-won Xingyue Fruit.
He understood very well that although Lin Shikang was over a hundred years old, he was not too old, and the probability of making a breakthrough with the help of Xingyue Fruit was not low.
It's just that his psychological burden is too heavy, and he wants to hand over this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to a clansman who has a greater grasp of it.
Thinking of this, Lin Tianming said:
"Third Grandpa, you should break through to the Great Perfection state as soon as possible, and then use the Star-Moon Fruit to reach the Golden Elixir stage. If you delay for another few decades, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to break through."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Shilu also started to persuade.
"Yes, third brother... Tianming and I have the same idea. Even if we fail, it will be decades later at worst. With Tianming's talent and cultivation, we can definitely wait!"
Soon, Lin Shigong and others also started to echo.
Seeing that all the clansmen started to persuade him, Lin Shilu even said that if he failed to break through, the worst he could do would be to stop the foundation building period in his lifetime.
After hearing this, Lin Shikang felt very happy and also very scared.
To say that he doesn't want to break through to the golden elixir stage is definitely a lie. No one will give up the opportunity to break through easily, and the same is true for him.
Breaking through the golden elixir stage will not only fulfill the long-cherished wish of the family for hundreds of years, but also double the lifespan, and can live to 500 years old. If there is a panacea to increase lifespan, it may be able to protect the family for hundreds of years.
Precisely because of this, he did not dare to gamble with the fate of his family on this hard-won opportunity.
At this time, Lin Shikang smiled bitterly, and then said:
"It's too early to talk about this now. We'll wait until I break through to the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment. What do you think?"
After listening to Lin Shikang's words, although there was a possibility of delaying the war, he did not refuse directly after all, and there were finally some signs of relenting.
Lin Shilu chuckled, then pretended to be serious and said:
"That's according to what the third brother said for the time being, but I have to say it first. Don't slack off because of this. Although the situation is calm and the family is showing signs of prosperity, no one can predict the crisis. Don't come at a critical moment, but Because of insufficient cultivation, this hard-won opportunity was lost in vain!"
"Yes, Third Grandpa..."
Lin Tianming smiled, and then said sternly:
"My ancestors did not break through the Golden Core stage until they were one hundred and sixty years old. You are not even one hundred and thirty years old. Even if you delay another twenty years, you will still be younger than your ancestors were then, right?"
Lin Tianming's words made all the clan members burst into laughter, and his grandfather Lin Shigong also said:
"Third brother... listen, how difficult was it for our ancestors to be alone in the past? Didn't we do it? Now that we have the support of Nuo Da's family, you don't need to have any psychological burden!"
After finishing speaking, Lin Shihua, who had not spoken for a long time, echoed.
"Yes... If you ask me, with this Star-Moon Fruit, the third brother's probability of breaking through the Golden Core Stage is at least 40%, which is much higher than that of our ancestors."
After listening to the remarks of the tribesmen, Lin Shikang suddenly felt a raging fire in his heart, and his whole belief seemed to become stronger.
Lin Shikang stood up, cupped his hands and fists towards everyone present, and then said firmly:
"Well...since everyone has so much confidence in me, let's use everyone's good words to give it a try!"
"Haha...that's right..."
Lin Shilu chuckled, everyone's faces were excited, and the whole scene was extremely lively.
Afterwards, several people chatted for half a quarter of an hour, exchanged some family affairs, and then left with each other holding hands.
Before leaving, Lin Shikang told him that he and Lin Shilu had been cultivating in the family for a few years, and that Lin Xingping would be stationed in Qianchuanfang City for a few years. With Luoyun Pavilion gaining a foothold, whether they go or not has little impact.
As for his mission, it is naturally to step up his practice and refine the Foundation Establishment Pill. After all, there are already many clansmen in the family who are above the ninth level of Qi Refining, all waiting for the Foundation Establishment Pill to break through.
Lin Tianming and Lin Shilu nodded in agreement, just in time to practice some practice.
Finally, Lin Tianming, grandson and grandson left the cave together and walked towards his father's cave.
The trip to the secret realm is over. As expected, Lin Tianming will look forward to practicing within the clan for a few years.
However, before retreating, I still reunited with my family, and then started practicing in retreat and refining the Foundation Building Pill.
That night, after learning that Lin Tianming had returned safely, her mother and sister hurriedly left the quarantine. Seeing that Lin Tianming had returned safely, her mother finally relaxed.
It has been two years since he left the family and went to Qianchuanbo City. His mother's cultivation has reached the ninth level of Qi Refining, and she is not far away from the Great Perfection state. If she continues to practice at this rate, it will take less than three years to reach the peak. It’s the foundation building period.
And my younger sister won a seat among the Seven Qi Refining Elites, and with the help of resources from her grandfather Lin Tianming, she has made rapid progress in the past two years. She has also reached the eighth level of Qi Refining, becoming the fastest practicing female clan member of the Tianzi generation in the family. one.
With the current cultivation level of mother and daughter, and with sufficient resources, there is a high probability that they can enter the foundation building stage together.
In the evening, a family of five had dinner and several people sat in the small courtyard chatting. They talked for a long time about everything from clan members in the family to cultivation to the four arts of immortality.
In the past two years, he has been stationed in Qianchuanfang City. Apart from sending snake eggs and spiritual stones back to the family, he came back in a hurry from the secret realm last time and had no time to care about the affairs within the family.
According to what several people said, the Seven Qi Refining Heroes of the family were selected last year. Except for the spot at the Great Perfection Realm, which was taken by Lin Xingzhi, the six spots from the fourth level to the ninth level of Qi Refining were all taken by members of the Tianzi generation.
The quota for the ninth level of Qi Refining is Lin Tianfeng, and the eighth level of Qi Refining is Lin Tianqin. It is a pity that Lin Tianhong is at the eighth level of Qi Refining, but he is one year older than Lin Tianqin, so he has no choice but to lose.
Although based on his strength, there is a high probability that he will be stronger than Lin Tianqin at the same level, but as a male tribesman, he is too embarrassed to challenge him.
The quota for the seventh level of Qi refining is sister Lin Tianyue, but he has already broken through to the eighth level of Qi refining. When this year is over, Lin Tianqin will definitely have no chance. After all, his sister Lin Tianyue is younger than the eldest daughter of Tianzi. Seven years old.
As for the tribesmen below the seventh level of Qi Refining, except for Lin Tianhu, who is familiar with the sixth level of Qi Refining, the rest are all tribesmen who started practicing after the battle at Qingzhu Mountain. All of them have the talents of the three spiritual roots, and they are all talents Excellent young talent.
They had fewer hardships in cultivating immortals. In the past ten years, the family had twice increased their monthly salary and merit points for general affairs, which resulted in a significant increase in the resources for cultivating immortals for the new generation of clan members.
In this way, with the help of resources, their cultivation speed is much faster than that of Lin Tianfeng and the others.
This is the result of the family's strength. They have also caught up with the good times. The current resources of the family's monks for cultivating immortals are several times higher than those of the other two major families.
If this continues, the strength gap between the three major families in Luoyun Mountain will only become wider and wider.
Before I knew it, it was already dead of night...
The chat had come to an end, and Lin Tianming took out a large amount of spiritual stones and elixirs and distributed them to his family.
He did not share the petals and seeds of the colorful golden lotus with his grandfather and father. It was not that he was stingy, because the quantity of these things was too small, and he had both physical and mental sleep. If he took it himself, it would be able to exert its greatest effect.
I saw that Lin Tianming had taken out a large number of spirit stones, as many as thirty thousand, as well as more than ten bottles of second-level elixirs, as well as some Qi-refining elixirs taken by his sister and mother.
Considering Lin Tianming's current cultivation level and wealth, only Lin Shikang and Lin Shilu can surpass him.
In this way, Grandpa and the others did not refuse. They each accepted some spiritual stones and elixirs, and then ended their chat.
After his grandfather gave some instructions, he got up and left his father's small courtyard.
The grandfather and grandson walked on the road, separated in the empty bluestone square, and each returned to his own cave.
Lin Tianming entered the practice room and sat on the futon, thinking about the practice arrangements.
After experiencing adversity, he felt that he was not far away from the third level of foundation building, so he planned to break through first.
Having made up his mind, he began to exercise his energy and breath, and circulated his energy for a full circle. When the state reached its peak, he immediately took out a petal of a colorful golden lotus and placed it in his hand.
Looking at the brightly colored petals and the special fragrance, it makes people feel relaxed and happy.
He had taken lotus seeds before and was extremely satisfied with the effect, but there were still six petals left, which he had never taken before, so he began to look forward to these petals.
After regaining his composure, he swallowed the main petals in one gulp without hesitation.
When the bright petals enter the mouth, a special sweetness comes out, which makes people feel refreshed.
The gentle energy of the petals soon began to overflow, not at all as violent as the lotus seeds.
Lin Tianming started refining without hesitation, and the energy contained in the petals was slowly refined, and then turned into spiritual power and began to flow along the meridians, and finally gathered in the Qihai Dantian.
Feeling the spiritual power and effect of this refinement, it is a little worse than that of lotus seeds, but it is still much better than the effect of second-level elixir.
Not only that, when this kind of heavenly material and earthly treasure is refined, there will be no discomfort or side effects, and there is no need for the assistance of Dragon Bone Pill.
As a result, even he is not willing to bear the pain of before.
After regaining his consciousness, Lin Tianming did not stop at all, running the technique with all his strength to quickly refine the energy contained in the petals.
Time passed slowly, and half a year passed.
In the practice room, Lin Tianming was in meditation like an ordinary old monk. He had been in seclusion for half a year without moving a step.
At this time, he has reached the peak of the second level of foundation building and is on the verge of breaking through at any time.
In half a year, he has taken three tablets of colorful golden lotus petals, and this is the fourth tablet.
Feeling the energy in this petal, it is almost finished refining, but there is still no successful breakthrough.
Lin Tianming speeded up, frantically refining the remaining energy, and finally organized this huge spiritual power to launch an impact.
At this time, the spiritual power in the Dantian has reached its limit, and it only needs to be injected with more spiritual energy to break through this restraint in one fell swoop.
With a determined look on his face, he controlled the large amount of accumulated spiritual energy, injected it into the dantian of the sea of qi, and then began to attack the barrier on the third floor of the foundation.
Over and over again, he was sweating profusely, and some of the accumulated spiritual energy began to wear away, but he still had no smooth breakthrough.
Seeing this, Lin Tianming looked crazy.
"We must break through the third level of foundation today... Break it for me!"
Lin Tianming gritted his teeth, gathered all his spiritual energy together, and crashed crazily towards the barrier of the realm.
I don’t know how much time passed before a special sound came out.
His Qi Hai Dantian suddenly broke through its confinement, just like a dam bursting and a large amount of river water pouring into the larger rivers and lakes.
He felt that the spiritual power in his body was much stronger than before. Not only that, but the feeling of pleasure after the breakthrough made him extremely excited.
At this time, the realm was successfully broken through, and Lin Tianming breathed a sigh of relief.
After finally breaking through, if the realm is unstable and falls back, another year or two will be wasted to rebuild.
If you fall into a realm, although you are not bound by the realm, you will still have to waste two precious years to re-cultivate. Since it can be avoided, you must naturally consolidate your cultivation as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, he did not dare to be careless at all, and immediately exercised his power and breath, circulated the power for a long time, and began to consolidate his cultivation.
