After returning to the clan, Li Qiao went to Lingdui Peak to withdraw several foundation-building techniques in advance, which were all relatively practical. Among them was the Lingyin Technique used by the opponent when he saw the family's golden elixir.
Among the techniques that can hide one's own cultivation level, in addition to Spiritual Invisibility Technique, there is also Breath Condensation Technique, which can only be practiced after reaching the foundation building stage.
The Breath Condensation Technique can hide one's own breath, and also has the ability to hide one's own cultivation level, but it can easily be seen through by monks with higher cultivation levels than oneself. In addition, once it is used, the effect of the Breath Condensation Technique will be invalidated instantly.
Although the Spiritual Invisibility Technique cannot hide the breath, it can make the caster look like a mortal, and it is not easy to be seen through by monks with higher cultivation levels. Even if it is used suddenly, the effect of the spell can be maintained for a short time.
And because Li Qiao was just a small foundation builder, he chose two techniques that made people feel safe. In addition, there was a technique that increased speed and two offensive techniques.
At this time, Li Qiao didn't have many cultivation resources left. These five spells were received in advance and had to be paid back later.
In fact, he really wanted to change to a spiritual weapon. It was neither an attack type nor a defense type, but a speed type. He usually kept it in his storage bag and took it out to escape when in danger, but unfortunately he couldn't afford it. .
After leaving Lingdui Peak, Li Qiao originally planned to return to his cave, familiarize himself with the five newly acquired spells, and then venture into the world of immortality. However, while flying between the two peaks, he heard a message from the clan leader Li Dongxiu. call.
"Are you going to explore the world of cultivating immortals again? It's okay to go out and explore, but you have to pay attention to safety."
Patriarch Li Dongxiu first talked about Li Qiao's recent situation, and then asked: "What do you think of your cultivation qualifications?"
"It must be very bad!" The scene when his qualifications were tested back then seems like yesterday in retrospect. Didn't his qualifications not even meet the family's minimum requirements? Why are you asking this all of a sudden?
"Although you are a speed cultivator, I guess you don't think your cultivation speed is that bad. There are some things that you need to know sooner or later to build a family foundation. And you are going to explore the world of immortality. I don't know how long it will take. Regarding your qualifications, It’s time to talk to you about it.”
After saying this, Li Dongxiu paused for a moment, leaving Li Qiao enough time to think, and then slowly said: "Actually, the so-called qualifications are simply fake. The qualifications of all monks are similar. Even if there are some differences, they are basically nine. The difference between a score and ten points is negligible.”
Li Qiao had some guesses when he first heard the other party talking about qualifications, but when the other party said it himself, it still had some impact on him.
After Li Dongxiu finished speaking, he kept staring at Li Qiao's expression, taking in all his reactions.
Li Qiao didn't have any special reaction on the surface. He just looked at the other person's eyes calmly for a brief moment, then lowered his head. After a moment, he said, "Does this mean that all races can cultivate immortality?"
At this moment, Li Qiao thought of his parents, his family, and the scene when he tested his qualifications. He even had the idea of taking his family and escaping from the family for a moment.
But he soon realized that this was unrealistic. Not to mention that his parents were old and had missed the best period of cultivation. Even if he told his father about this, he would not leave because of his deep-rooted thoughts about the family.
"You're right!" Clan leader Li Dongxiu confirmed.
"So the theory of qualifications for cultivating immortals has always been false?" Li Qiao still couldn't believe it.
"That's not the case. You must also know the theory of Lingsha! Before Lingsha appeared in the world of immortality, it was true that qualifications were important and very difficult to find. But after Lingsha appears, although it will deprive monks of their ability to reproduce, it will also It makes people no longer limited by their qualifications.”
"Why did you tell me so suddenly?"
"Because you have already established a foundation. Every family foundation builder, after twenty years of foundation building, can choose a direct descendant to become a family monk. A foundation builder can only choose one in his lifetime." Li Dongxiu's previous words did not What surprises Li Qiao? Since the claims about qualifications are all false, there must be something wrong with the so-called test of qualifications for cultivating immortals.
But the last sentence is interesting. How much does it cost to build a family foundation? One person has one quota? So Li Qiao asked again: "How much is this? Others
What about the quota? "
After a brief adjustment, Li Qiao had suppressed the emotions that had just arisen. Now he wanted to find out how his family did it.
"Select randomly. Every time the qualifications are tested, under the witness of all the foundations of the family, a certain magic weapon that tests the qualifications will be randomly reacted."
This sounds like a fair approach. Thinking that there are thousands of children from families taking part in each test, and only a few are selected, Li Qiao suddenly realized that he was not qualified when tested, and it turned out to be bad luck. .
He also figured out the reason why the family foundation can only be selected after twenty years. He didn't want to make things too obvious. After all, there were very few people with the qualifications to cultivate immortals. Once a foundation was established, one of the immediate family members would soon have the ability to cultivate immortals. Qualified? This is easy to see.
"Actually, apart from us and other cultivating families, the same is true for those cultivating sects. It's just that they use magic weapons to test the distance of their bloodlines to determine their qualifications. This has been true since the appearance of the spiritual evil tens of millions of years ago. Do you know why?"
Li Dongxiu asked again.
"Li Qiao doesn't know, please give me some advice from the clan leader." Apart from the fear that there are too many monks and they are uncontrollable, there is probably nothing else, Li Qiao thought.
"Take my Li family as an example. If all the clan members are cultivating immortals, then the result will definitely not be the growth of the family. The more monks there are, the more cultivation resources will be needed. By then, let alone foundation-building monks, they will be foundation-building monks. It will be difficult for monks to show up in the later period.”
"There are many low-level monks, and the resources are limited, so they will inevitably be prone to fighting and fighting, and they will only become weaker and weaker."
"The world of cultivating immortals depends on the strength of the monks, not the number of monks. Hundreds of monks in the Qi training period are not as good as one golden elixir monk."
"Tell me, what would you do if you were not a monk and knew that there was an opportunity to cultivate immortality?" Li Dongxiu asked again.
"I will seize this opportunity even if I risk my life." After thinking about it, Li Qiao said.
"I'm telling you this today, firstly, you should know it, and secondly, I want you to understand that some things seem unreasonable, but they have reasons for their existence."
"Some things can't just be what you want. My Li family has been passed down for countless years. If we didn't learn to adapt to changes, we would have been exterminated long ago."
"Whoever doesn't want their relatives to cultivate immortality can live longer, but I, a monk of the Li family, have been trying my best in the world of immortality and still have dark clouds hanging over me, so what can I do?"
"If you want to survive, there is no better way than working together. I hope you can understand this."
