Ximen Changqing was in a hurry to get out of seclusion, and he was also thinking that Sang Xiaoyu was going to have a baby, and he didn't know whether it would be a boy or a girl.
"Brother Qing, Xiaoyu gave birth three days ago. It's a boy."
Pan Yulian smiled and took Xing'er back into her arms.
"The baby was born three days ago. How is the little fish doing?"
I am still very concerned about my cousin, Ximen Changqing.
"Mother and son are safe and fine. Come and have a look."
Pan Yulian said, leading the way to Ximen Changyu's cave.
"Xiaoyu, let me see the child."
Ximen Changqing entered the cave and saw Changyu, Xiaoyu, and many female tribesmen.
"Cousin, you are out of seclusion and have already built the second floor of the foundation."
Sang Xiaoyu's condition is still good. She refined a blood essence pill and her energy and blood have long been restored.
"You should also practice hard and strive to build a foundation as soon as possible. Ouch! This child is so cute. Have you given him a name?"
Ximen Changqing asked with a smile.
"Fourth brother, we've decided on a name. Let's call him Ximen Yongsheng. That's okay!"
Ximen Changyu smiled and spoke.
"Well, what a good name, Yongxing, Yongsheng, these are the brothers! Haha!"
Ximen Changqing is very satisfied with this name. Yongxing and Yongsheng mean that the family can prosper forever, which is a good sign.
"Yulian, Xiaoyu, although you have a child, you can't neglect your cultivation. You must improve your cultivation as soon as possible. As long as it's time to build the Foundation, you don't have to worry about the Foundation Establishment Pill."
Ximen Changqing looked at the two of them and educated them.
"Brother Qing, your son is very clingy. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to settle down and practice in the past few years."
Pan Yulian said with a smile.
"This won't work. It's enough to take care of the child for one hour every day. The rest of the time should be spent practicing more."
Ximen Changqing spoke sternly and asked Pan Yulian to practice more, which was also for her own good.
Pan Yulian has good qualifications. As long as he practices well, his future prospects are limitless. He doesn't want his Taoist companion to die halfway.
There are many lay women in the Ximen family, and they can fully take care of the children. In this way, the female monks in the family can have enough time to practice.
Later, Ximen Changqing went to see his grandfather and expressed his thoughts.
After hearing this, Ximen Rende agreed. It was a good idea for ordinary people to take care of their children without having to practice.
At this point, Pan Yulian began to practice seriously. Ximen Changqing prepared a lot of middle-grade spiritual stones for her, which could greatly speed up Pan Yulian's practice.
Although elixirs can speed up the advancement of monks the most, taking elixirs is not good for the foundation. The cultivation achieved by using elixirs is very vain.
When monks have limited qualifications, they sometimes have to take elixirs, but as long as there are other ways, they should try to avoid using elixirs to improve their cultivation.
After saying hello to his grandfather, Ximen Changqing went to Jiguan Mountain. Since he was promoted to the middle stage of foundation building, he could try to refine the best spiritual weapon.
Refining top-quality spiritual weapons requires corresponding spiritual materials. There is not no space, but the quantity is still too small.
The family owns a medium-sized Xuanyang copper vein under the pasture of Jiguan Mountain, which is a second-level high-grade spiritual material.
As long as these ores are mined and transformed by Xiaojin, they can become second-level top-grade spiritual materials, which can fully meet the needs of refining spiritual weapons.
"Third uncle, I'm here to see you."
When he saw Ximen Yunlong, he greeted him loudly.
"Changqing, how long has it been before you remember your third uncle and tell me what good things you can bring to your third uncle?"
Ximen Yunlong said, his eyes slightly surprised, and said: "Changqing, you have already built the second floor of the foundation, it's too fast!"
"Third uncle, you haven't advanced to the third level of foundation building yet?"
"It will take at least another year, and that's with the help of elixirs."
Ximen Yunlong shook his head, feeling that he couldn't compare with his nephew.
"Third uncle, look, I brought you good wine and good meat."
In one breath, Ximen Changqing took out ten jars of spiritual fruit honey brew, a thousand kilograms of smoked spiritual meat, and hundreds of fire-luan chicken spiritual eggs.
"Yes, yes, I can still think of Third Uncle. I will come more often in the future. Third Uncle is almost bored to death here."
Ximen Yunlong has been guarding Jiguan Mountain for a long time and has not moved anywhere.
The family is not without new foundation building, the second uncle and fifth uncle can do it, but the family is not easy to expose too much foundation building power.
Nowadays, the number of exposed foundations is already frightening and has aroused the suspicion of the Qin family. Fortunately, Gu Junzhi discovered it in time, otherwise, something might have happened.
"Third uncle, no one doubts that the family has a spiritual mine here!"
"No, the third uncle is personally in charge. No one dares to enter the pasture valley. Don't worry. By the way, you are here just to mine!"
Ximen Yunlong seemed to realize something, with a smile on his lips.
"I really can't hide anything from my third uncle. Naturally, I came here to mine. My nephew plans to refine a high-grade spiritual weapon."
Ximen Changqing smiled and said, he actually wanted to refine the top-grade spiritual weapon, but Xuanyang Copper was the spiritual material for refining the top-grade spiritual weapon, and it was inconvenient for him to reveal his trump card, so he could only fool his third uncle.
"Changqing, can you refine a high-grade spiritual weapon? Don't say anything else. You must refine a high-grade spiritual weapon for your third uncle. Don't ask for spiritual stones. Third uncle is very poor."
A smile appeared on Ximen Yunlong's lips, confirming his nephew.
Naturally, Ximen Changqing would not refuse Third Uncle's request, but it was just a piece of cake. Moreover, he could give Third Uncle one of the high-grade spiritual weapons he already had.
"Third Uncle, I gave it to Third Uncle, a top-grade spiritual weapon called the Golden Tiger Heavy Hammer, which can transform and attack."
Ximen Changqing took out the high-grade spiritual weapon he had forged before and handed it to Ximen Yunlong.
This heavy hammer was made of mutated Xuanyuan Steel, but he couldn't tell the material, so it was renamed the Golden Tiger Heavy Hammer.
"High-grade spiritual weapon? Transformation attack? Hahaha! Thank you, nephew Changqing. Third uncle will go and test its power now."
Ximen Yunlong was like a child, after practicing the heavy hammer for a while, he started to use it around.
A golden light flashed, and the huge golden-striped tiger suddenly hit the ground, raising a piece of debris.
"Yes, with this golden tiger hammer, Third Uncle doesn't have to worry when he encounters the middle stage of foundation building."
Ximen Yunlong played with the heavy hammer happily and couldn't put it down.
"Uncle Third, then I'm going to go mining."
After saying hello, Ximen Changqing entered the underground vein and immediately released Xiao Jin, Xiao Yin, and five thousand petrified gold ants.
"Xiao Jin, this is our own mine. We must mine it according to the easiest way to recover."
Ximen Changqing gave an order to Xiao Jin.
"Master, don't worry, leave it to me."
Xiao Jin sent a message from his spiritual consciousness and began to command the petrified gold ants under his command to quickly mine the Xuanyang copper vein.
In just a few hours, enough Xuanyang Copper was mined. After collecting the ore and the little ones into the space, Ximen Changqing returned to the ground.
After saying hello to his third uncle, Ximen Changqing returned to Qingyang Mountain. After a while, he can start refining the best spiritual weapon.
###
Xuanyang Copper is a second-level high-grade spiritual material. Xiaojin can devour and transform it into a second-level top-grade mutated Xuanyang Copper, which takes a lot of time.
Ximen Changqing plans to use this time to pay close attention to the development of the family and help his second uncle handle some family affairs.
At the same time, we can also better understand the situation in the clan and make targeted plans.
"Uncle Ninth, are you busy?"
Ximen Changqing entered the family school and said hello to Ximen Renjing.
As the clan master, Ximen Renjing is responsible for teaching the younger members of the clan. All clan members who are above six and below twelve years old and have spiritual roots must accept his teachings.
In addition to guiding the younger generation in cultivation, he is also responsible for teaching clan rules, explaining the 600-year history of the Ximen family, and requiring clan members to be loyal to the family.
When he was young, Ximen Changqing also received the teachings of Uncle Jiu. Listening to the same words every day, his ears were calloused.
At that time, I didn’t understand why the same clan rules and family history had to be taught over and over again every day.
At this time, he finally understood that only through continuous indoctrination for many years could the clansmen truly take their loyal family to heart.
In the Ximen family, the first and most core rule of the family rules is that one must be loyal to the family, and treason is a capital crime.
"Changqing, how come you have time to come to Uncle Nine and still want to continue to listen to Uncle Nine's nagging!"
Seeing Ximen Changqing come in, Ximen Renjing said with a smile.
Ximen Renjing, who is over sixty years old, has just been promoted to the ninth level of Qi training. He will be able to build the foundation in two or three years at most.
"Uncle Ninth, I just came to take a look and reminisce about my childhood."
Ximen Changqing said as he walked around the family school, he felt that it was too small and needed to be expanded.
It's barely enough for now, but the family's baby boom will sweep through the family school in a few years. Instead of scrambling when the time comes, it's better to prepare in advance.
"Uncle Ninth, the family school is too small. Do you think it is better to expand it or choose a new place to build a brand new school?"
It seemed that after a long time, Ximen Changqing spoke up and asked Uncle Jiu for his opinion.
Ximen Renjing smiled when he heard this.
"Changqing, ever since the clan rules were reformed and people had a large number of children, the ninth uncle has been considering this matter and has discussed it with your second uncle several times.
After all, this is an old place. Uncle Ninth has been here for decades and has long had feelings for it, so he might as well expand the area around it! "
Obviously, Ximen Renjing is a nostalgic person who has stayed in one place for a long time and is unwilling to leave.
In fact, the conditions on Qingniu Island are better, but after all, the Ximen family has thrived in Qingyang Mountain for six hundred years, and Qingyang Mountain is the foundation of the Ximen family.
The six hundred years of vicissitudes of the Ximen family also revolve around Qingyang Mountain. Qingyang Mountain has become the symbol of the Ximen family, and Qingyang Mountain is engraved in the souls of the clan members.
The family school is placed in Qingyang Mountain so that it can better educate the family's younger generations and allow them to better understand the family's hundreds of years of history.
The countless ancestors who died in Qingyang Mountain can also better inspire the descendants of the clan to put the interests of the family first and always be loyal to the family.
"Nine Uncle, the expansion of the clan academy should be done sooner rather than later. We can start now."
Ximen Changqing sighed and agreed with Uncle Jiu's suggestion.
"The expansion of the family school cannot be done casually. In order to pass it on from generation to generation, the new building requires the use of a large amount of first- and second-level spiritual materials, which is not a small sum of money."
Ximen Renjing said calmly.
It would be easy to expand a group of buildings using ordinary mundane materials, but mundane materials are too fragile and cannot withstand wind and rain.
When the younger members of the family learn spells, they will also have certain destructive power, which cannot be sustained by ordinary materials.
If it is rebuilt every ten or eight years, the building will lose its sense of vicissitudes and will not show the long history of the family.
For the thousand-year plan to expand the family school, more durable spiritual materials must be used, and some fragile parts require second-level spiritual materials.
In this case, expanding the family school will be a big expense, and the clan elders will be more cautious. After all, the family school is enough for the time being.
"Ninth uncle, you are busy first, I will go find the second uncle."
Grandpa went to Qingniu Island to retreat. At present, the second uncle is in charge of all matters in the clan. He wants to ask how much spiritual building materials the clan still has.
At this time, Ximen Renzhi, who was sitting in the meeting hall, placed a jade slip on his forehead with a satisfied smile on his lips.
The profits of the shops in Qingyangfang, Yunjianfang, Linhaifang, Canghaifang, and everywhere have increased a lot.
Seeing the family background increasing little by little, how could Ximen Renzhi be in a bad mood? If he wasn't too old and needed to stay calm, he would be able to jump up.
"Second uncle, why are you so happy?"
As soon as he entered the door, he saw his second uncle smiling, and Ximen Changqing asked curiously.
"Changqing, come here and take a good look."
Ximen Renzhi handed the jade slip to his grandnephew, picked up the tea on the table next to him, and drank it in one gulp.
"The family's profits in Si Fang City have increased a lot. No wonder my second uncle is so happy."
Ximen Changqing smiled and asked: "Second uncle, the family school will be expanded sooner or later. How much spiritual material is missing from the family treasury?"
Hearing this, Ximen Renzhi smiled and said: "You! Why are you more anxious than your ninth uncle? It's not difficult to collect spiritual materials.
The main reason is that the family business is so good, most of the spiritual materials are invested in the family shops, and they can make a little profit. "
"Second uncle, Changqing thinks it is better to build earlier and prepare more high-level spiritual materials. If we want to expand, we should build better."
Ximen Changqing attached great importance to the family school. After persuading him for a long time, he finally moved Ximen Renzhi.
It was decided that next month, we would start collecting various spiritual materials, and construction could start in three months at most.
Later, Ximen Changqing asked some questions about the current situation of the family, the cultivation progress of the clan members, etc. He was very excited about the prosperity of the family.
Nowadays, the entire Donghuang Immortal Cultivation World is relatively peaceful. There are no major disasters. This is a good opportunity for the family to develop.
But under the calm appearance, there are already undercurrents. The dormant Immortal Zombie Sect and the terrifying prophecies of the evil ghost clan all indicate that Donghuang will fall into chaos in a few years.
Once a disaster strikes, a family can only protect itself if it has a certain level of strength.
What Ximen Changqing has to do now is to try his best to help the family develop and help the tribe improve their cultivation. The land of the second tribe must also be fully developed.
Qingniu Island is located in a remote location. At least, it can be used as a retreat for the family.
Once Donghuang falls into turmoil, no one knows how far it will go. It will never go wrong to prepare early.
…
In the northwest of Jinyang County, in Yunmengze, fifteen foundation-building monks stood together with their own agendas.
Among them, five are Jinyangmen monks, including Shi Tieshan, Shi Yushan, Liu Huaiguang, Han Feng, and Ximen Yunfei.
The other ten foundation builders were all casual foundation builders active around Jinyang County. They discovered an ancient monk site.
###
This ancient monk's ruins are protected by a third-level ban. It was discovered that the casual cultivators who built the foundation of this ruins had no ability to break the ban.
So, he had no choice but to invite a few friends he knew and five foundation builders to take action together, but there was nothing he could do. In the end, fifteen foundation builders appeared here.
When Ximen Yunfei heard the news, he came directly with the Shi brothers, without having time to inform the family.
"Fellow Taoists, this ancient monk's cave was discovered by me. I have the right to share 30% of the treasures inside, but it shouldn't be too much!"
A very short fifth-level foundation-building monk looked at the crowd and made a request in a carefree manner.
"Hmph, you discovered it, then you should open it up! Without our help, you can only stare at it, why should you divide it into 30%?"
Fat Zhuji next to him was the first to stand up and object. He had built six levels of foundation and was even more powerful.
"I discovered this first, I deserve more."
"There are no doors, and the harvest is distributed according to the level of cultivation."
"..."
More than a dozen foundation builders quickly started arguing.
"Oops! Fellow Taoists, please stop arguing. According to what Shi said, if any jade slip-like information is found in the cave, everyone can burn a copy.
If it is elixirs and magic weapons, they will be distributed according to the level of cultivation. This Taoist friend who discovered the cave has merit and can enjoy the share of the seventh level of foundation building. "
Shi Tieshan frowned and asked everyone to disperse to build the foundation and stop arguing.
"What Fellow Daoist Shi said makes sense, and I support Fellow Daoist Shi."
"I also support Fellow Taoist Shi."
"It's unlucky for me to have friends like you."
In the end, everyone approved Shi Tieshan's distribution plan.
With the distribution plan in place, the next step is to find a way to break through this third-level restriction.
"Fellow Taoists, don't hold back. Let's attack together. I don't believe we can't break this restriction."
Shi Tieshan encouraged everyone to build the foundation and agreed to take action together.
"boom……"
Fifteen foundation builders took action together, and a dozen spiritual weapons quickly hit the forbidden light screen, causing a lot of commotion.
However, the third-level restriction is no joke, and the restriction was not broken in one blow.
Naturally, all the foundation builders would not give in, and continued to attack together to attack the third-level restriction.
"boom……"
"Click..."
The hard work paid off, and under the continuous bombardment of fifteen foundation builders, the third-level restriction was finally blasted away.
"walk into."
The fifteen people looked at each other and rushed into the cave, for fear that they would be late and the good things would be robbed.
Even if they have discussed the distribution plan, instinctively, they still don't want to believe in their teammates. They only believe in themselves.
The cave seems ordinary from the outside. After entering, I realize that this cave is extraordinary. The area inside is extremely large.
It can also be said that this is not a cave at all, but a well-preserved sect ruins, but this ruins is underground.
"We actually discovered a sect ruins, a sect ruins, haha!"
"Such a large ruins, there must be a lot of treasures inside. Make a fortune."
"Look, there is a stone monument here, 'Yunmeng Tower'. Is this the name of the sect?"
"I've never heard of it. It's probably at least a few hundred years old."
"The restriction has been broken. We must act quickly. If another Taoist friend comes over, he will get another piece of the pie."
"That's right. Let's all work separately. Finally, gather here. No one is allowed to hide anything."
"A defensive formation must be set up at the entrance. No one can leave without permission."
"Fellow Taoists, please open your storage bags and let us all supervise each other. No one can hide anything."
More than a dozen foundation builders were very excited about discovering the huge sect ruins, but at the same time, they also wanted to ensure that no one would swallow the treasure secretly.
The fifteen foundation builders looked at each other and erased the restrictions on their storage bags, allowing others' spiritual consciousness to penetrate deep into them and explore the items inside.
Immortal cultivators have very good memories. At least with a casual glance, they can remember all the immortal cultivating resources inside.
This kind of behavior is actually very rude, but in order to ensure fairness, this is the only way to do it.
Soon, the defensive formations were set up, and the fifteen foundation builders moved separately to search for heavenly materials and earthly treasures in the huge sect ruins.
Ximen Yunfei found a direction and used the flying sword.
This sect ruins is too big, he must search as soon as possible to get the good things in his hands.
Although they have already formulated a plan, it is not impossible to hide their secrets. All foundation builders understand this truth, but they all tacitly agree with it.
"Sutra-Tibetan Pavilion? I'm so lucky. I randomly chose a direction and found the Sutra-Tibetan Pavilion."
Ximen Yunfei was overjoyed. Since it was the Zongmen Scripture Collection Pavilion, there must be a lot of good things in it.
He quickly put away his flying sword and quickly entered the Scripture Collection Pavilion, preparing to sweep away all the information inside.
However, when he actually entered the Sutra Pavilion, he felt a little regretful. There were indeed many books and materials in it, but no one had managed them for many years.
Many bamboo slips and jade pieces turned into powder with just a light touch. It was a pity.
"It's such a pity that so much information on cultivating immortals has turned into dust."
Ximen Yunfei's face was full of pain, but he still searched everywhere without giving up, and smashed these weathered immortal cultivation materials one by one with his own hands.
"Click..."
Inadvertently, he touched a hidden mechanism, and Ximen Yunfei opened a secret room.
"Secret room?"
Ximen Yunfei entered the secret room cautiously. After making sure that there was no danger, he felt relieved.
This secret room is not very big. There is a skeleton sitting cross-legged in the middle. From the gleaming bones, it is certain that he was at least a master of alchemy formation during his lifetime.
"Senior, forgive me, junior for disturbing me."
Ximen Yunfei saluted the skeleton, and then carefully took out the magic weapon binding demon rope and pulled the golden box next to the skeleton.
"open."
The demon-tying rope shook slightly, and the golden box was opened.
There are two well-preserved jade slips inside the box, exuding bursts of spiritual light.
There are at least dozens of high-grade spiritual stones surrounding the jade slip. However, these high-grade spiritual stones have almost exhausted their spiritual energy and are of little value.
It is precisely because of these high-grade spiritual stones that the two jade slips did not turn into powder. Otherwise, the fate of these two jade slips would be the same as the jade slips outside.
In addition to the two jade slips, there is also a black shield and a black axe, which are magic weapons at first glance.
"Two jade slips, two magic weapons?"
Ximen Yunfei took a breath of cold air. He still didn't know what was inside the jade slip, but he could see the two magic weapons clearly.
"Senior, please forgive me. You won't be able to use these treasures anymore, so why not leave them to your juniors!"
After saying that, Ximen Yunfei put the two magic weapons and jade slips into his storage bracelet, closed the box and put them back in their place.
After continuing to search the secret room and confirming that nothing was found, Ximen Yunfei left the secret room.
After that, I searched many times throughout the Sutra Pavilion, but no similar secret rooms were found, so I had to look for treasures elsewhere.
Halfway through, Ximen Yunfei probed his consciousness into a jade slip, and his face was filled with surprise.
