Ximen Changqing's Double Cultivation Ceremony must be held in a grand and special manner. This is the unanimous opinion of the elders of the Ximen family.
The purpose is to reward Ximen Changqing for his contribution to the family. Without the foundation-building pill he brought back, there would not be so many members of the Ximen family building foundations.
At the same time, in order to keep a low profile, all the foundation building ceremonies of all the foundation building clan members were cancelled, and their cultivation levels were even hidden.
It is enough for the Ximen family to hold a double cultivation ceremony, which is enough to show the image of the first family in Qingyang County.
To hold a double cultivation ceremony successfully, sufficient spiritual tea, spiritual wine, spiritual fruit and spiritual food for entertaining guests must be prepared, and the quality cannot be too low.
Only by allowing guests to satisfy their appetites and feel the sincerity and financial resources of the Ximen family can the heritage of the Ximen family be demonstrated, and they should not dare to look down upon it.
The ingredients prepared by the clan elders were enough to entertain the guests, but in Ximen Changqing's opinion, they were slightly insufficient in terms of both grade and quantity.
"Second uncle, this White Jade Spirit Wine is too low-grade, please replace it with Baihua Spirit Brew!"
Ximen Changqing took out a thousand jars of Baihua Spirit Brewing from the storage bag and placed them neatly in the temporary warehouse.
"This is also a gift from Senior Xuanwu. It's such a big gesture." Ximen Renzhi took a breath.
At this moment, whenever Ximen Changqing comes up with something good, the clan elders will think of the senior Xuanwu they have never met before.
"These are nothing. Senior Xuanwu has many good things. These 20,000 kilograms of smoked spiritual meat are also used to entertain guests."
Ximen Changqing smiled calmly and continued: "Second uncle, since my grandson's double cultivation ceremony is going to be a grand event, we can't be picky about it."
"Yes, yes, my second uncle is stingy."
Ximen Renzhi changed the topic and asked: "Changqing, senior Xuanwu is out traveling, won't you also participate in the dual cultivation ceremony?"
"Second uncle, it's really hard for my grandson to guess. Senior Xuanwu has a weird temper. He just comes up with whatever he thinks."
This wasn't a lie, he really couldn't figure out the old turtle's temper, and he couldn't figure out where it was wandering.
Later, he took out several hundred spiritual peaches and thirty golden pig pears, which could be used to entertain distinguished guests.
As these were not enough, Ximen Changqing exchanged thirty amethyst grape spiritual seeds from the family warehouse. After returning to the cave, he entered the nine-day space.
Amethyst Grape is a first-order low-grade spiritual fruit. It is of very low grade, but has a sweet taste and is loved by monks.
It takes a year for an amethyst grape spirit seed to germinate and grow up, then bloom in two months, bear fruit in two months, and mature in two months.
"It will be harvested in eighteen months. There is still enough time."
After personally burying thirty spiritual seeds into three animistic places, Ximen Changqing breathed a sigh of relief.
The Double Cultivation Ceremony will be held one month later, and the space will be twenty months, which is enough time for the amethyst grapes to mature.
"Master, I have advanced to the second level spiritual insect!"
The blue-eyed Hansi happily sent a message from the soul.
"Xiaohan, congratulations! Eat more mulberry leaves and spin more silk."
After communicating with Xiaohan, Ximen Changqing walked towards a small sapling and observed it carefully with joyful eyes.
The Jingxin tea spiritual seed bought at the Xianyuan City auction has now grown into a spiritual tea sapling.
Because there were too few leaves, he was reluctant to pick them and make tea to drink, lest he damage the Lingcha tree and affect its normal growth.
"Let you grow up carefree for a hundred years first."
Ximen Changqing gently stroked the Jingxin tea sapling, thinking of his ancestor Ximen Hidden Sword.
In the Mysterious Realm of the Black Turtle, he obtained the high-grade Red Flame Spirit Fire of the Mysterious Level. As long as it was handed over to the ancestor, he would have a 40-50% chance of forming a pill.
But forming a pill is not a trivial matter, and the risk is still very high. If you cannot resist the inner demon, you may die from a thunderstorm.
Meditation tea has the effect of eliminating distracting thoughts and focusing the mind, and is very effective in resisting inner demons. If the ancestors drank the meditative tea, the inner demons would be stabilized.
In this way, the Red Flame Spiritual Fire cannot be handed over to the ancestors for the time being, and it will have to wait three or four more years.
…
Ever since the Pan family of Jinlian Mountain obtained the low-grade spiritual weapon Dan Stove, Pan Shouzong, the eldest elder of the Pan family, has never left their side.
At this moment, he was refining elixirs in the cave, and his face looked slightly pale.
"Ten pills, full of pills, hahaha!"
As the lid of the alchemy furnace was opened, Pan Shouzong laughed excitedly.
What he was refining was a first-grade high-grade powerful energy pill. Previously, the maximum number of pills he could produce was nine. However, he switched to a lower-grade spiritual weapon pill furnace and actually obtained a breakthrough of ten pills.
"Man Dan? Congratulations, brother."
Pan Shouhe, who rushed over after hearing the noise, saw a scene that surprised him.
For an alchemist, making ten pills is an extremely huge achievement, and only very good alchemists can achieve it.
"I now understand that only the spiritual weapon alchemy furnace can display the true level of a second-level alchemist."
Pan Shouzong smacked his lips and wiped the alchemy furnace very carefully, looking like he couldn't put it down, as if he was taking care of his own child.
"Yes, with this spiritual weapon alchemy furnace, the cost of the elixirs refined by my Pan family can be reduced a lot."
Pan Shouhe also sighed and was full of longing for the future of his family.
"Brother, where did this kid Changqing get so many good things?"
Pan Shouzong smiled and said, "I guess I came across the ancient monk's cave. Don't forget how much benefit you got from discovering the ancient monk's cave."
Hearing this, Pan Shouhe smiled awkwardly.
Back then, he accidentally discovered an ancient monk's cave and obtained resources worth three hundred thousand spiritual stones.
Relying on these resources, he not only bought two foundation-building pills, but also used 30,000 spirit stones as a betrothal gift to marry Ximen Renhui, and the remaining 60,000 resources were handed over to the family.
Without this adventure, it would have been difficult for Pan Shouhe to build a foundation, and even more difficult to marry Ximen Renhui, let alone help Ximen Renhui build a foundation.
However, after the inside story was exposed, he also received complaints from his clan members, including Pan Shouzong in front of him.
"This kid Changqing is really lucky."
Pan Shouhe sighed and turned around to go back to work.
The Ximen family gave so many betrothal gifts, and during the Double Cultivation Ceremony, the Pan family also needed to come up with some high-end dowries.
These matters require personal intervention by the patriarch.
As the Double Cultivation Ceremony approaches, the Ximen family gradually becomes lively, and clan members who were rarely seen before appear one after another at this moment.
Many people from the Pan family also came over, including the patriarch’s wife, Ximen Renhui.
"Sister Wu, we haven't seen each other for many years."
Ximen Renhui held the hands of an old female cultivator, feeling slightly excited.
"I am old and you are still so young."
The speaker was Wu Guorong, Ximen Changqing's second uncle, who only had the fifth level of Qi training.
She has been guarding Ximen's ordinary town all year round and has almost no resources for cultivation. Her cultivation level has only increased by two levels compared to when she was young.
For the Immortal Cultivation Family, the mortal towns under the family are an important foundation. In order to avoid the invasion of monsters, clan members must be sent to guard it.
However, the monsters that harass ordinary towns are usually at the lower to middle level of the first level, and the tribesmen dispatched do not need to have high levels of cultivation.
Generally, tribesmen with poor qualifications will take the initiative to apply to guard ordinary towns, so that outstanding tribesmen in the family can practice well in the family's spiritual mountain with peace of mind.
