"Xuanji, I know you are always low-key, don't like to cause trouble, and don't like to be in the limelight. But after building a foundation, you have to celebrate. It can not only improve the morale of the family, but also improve the cohesion of the family. If the people are scattered, the team will not be good. I brought it with me. But as long as people’s hearts are not in chaos, it won’t be a big problem.”
"The two nearby Zifu families and the eighteen foundation-building families have to be invited to exchange some feelings. On the one hand, our families are constantly competing with each other; but on the other hand, we also have to join forces to fight against the Danyang sect and fight against each other. Under the pressure of Danyang Sect."
When it came to the latter moment, the great elder looked solemn and began to say something to Lu Xuanji.
There is no need to know these things in the past.
But after Lu Xuanji established the foundation, he was qualified to know.
The Danyang Sect is one of the three major sects of the Chu State. It occupies twelve counties of the Chu State and governs about three hundred monk families. The Danyang sect has continued to collect taxes and donations from the subordinate monk families, causing the Danyang sect to become richer and richer, while many monk families have become increasingly poor.
If you join the Danyang Sect, it will take twenty years for the monks in the sect to reach the peak of Qi training; but if you stay in the family, it will take thirty or even forty years to reach the peak of Qi training.
Similarly, if a monk family wants to buy a foundation building pill, they often need 15,000 spirit stones; but in the Danyang sect, they only need 10,000 spirit stones to purchase it. In the Danyang Sect, Foundation Establishment Pills are not only cheap, but also available in large quantities.
The Danyang Sect has abundant resources, which has led to many geniuses from the family joining the Danyang Sect. The elders and patriarchs of the family cannot stop it, because blocking the children's good future may lead to the hatred of the younger generations in the future.
On the one hand, he sucked blood from major families, continuously exploited them, and accumulated a large amount of wealth; he also used this wealth to attract some geniuses to join, and the sect became stronger and more prosperous.
But the monk family's wealth was not only exploited, but the family's talents were also lost, which can be said to be more and more difficult.
Many monk families have been developing for decades, but have failed to develop for hundreds of years, and some are still declining.
Not only that, every time you fight in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, fight against monsters, or fight against demonic cultivators, you have to recruit monks from the monk family to rush to the front and try to go to some dangerous areas. Many monk families often suffer from muscle injuries after the war. Move the bones.
Although, the Danyang Sect has also provided compensation strategies. For example, if a Foundation-Building monk dies in battle, he will be compensated with Foundation-Building Pills.
But a Foundation Establishment Pill is not as good as a Foundation Establishment Monk.
Taking the Foundation Establishment Pill only has a three-level chance of becoming a Foundation Establishment Monk, which is much inferior to a living Foundation Establishment Monk.
The Danyang Sect, while taxing and exploiting, searching for talents, and at the same time suffering from war losses, continued to consume the power of the major families.
Many monk families not only fail to develop, but also decline at a certain stage.
"Don't they resist?"
Lu Xuanji asked.
"Resist, but how to resist? The Danyang sect has three golden elixir ancestors. Any resistance is courting death." The great elder said: "What we have to resist is not the King of Hell, but the little devils. The little devils are the most difficult to deal with. In order to resist the Danyang sect Those brats, our three major families, the Wu family, the Ye family, the Lu family, and some smaller families all maintain a tacit understanding."
"You and Xiaoxue's foundation-building banquet will not only be held, but also a grand event."
"The poorer you are, the harder it is to uncover the truth. The more you have to dress well and look high-spirited."
Seeing what the great elder said, Lu Xuanji could only nod his head and agree to have a grand banquet.
In order to show the strength of the family, the elder also wrote a letter to Lu Tianwen, the elder of the Danyang sect, asking him to return to the family, show up at the banquet, and suppress the situation.
In order to prepare for the scenery, it took a full month to prepare high-quality spiritual rice, monster meat, spiritual fruits, spiritual wine, etc., which cost more than two thousand spiritual stones. This would make the family's supply relatively tight. Falling into poverty. It feels like trying to make someone look fat, but it must be done.
Because if you don't do this, you can't intimidate a group of people.
The weaker they are, the more they need to dress neatly and show off; on the contrary, those powerful monks, because they have strength and confidence, do not need to show off, but can dress casually and calmly.
…
Danyang Sect, in the Medicine Garden.
Lu Tianwen looked through the letter and sighed: "Something is not going well with the Lu family. I have to go back...otherwise the Lu family will collapse and it will not be good for me."
Collect the letter and directly ask for leave from the elders of the sect.
Pack up everything, leave the sect and head towards Changyuan Mountain.
He walked with his sword for more than twenty days before arriving at Changyuan Mountain.
…
"Meet uncle."
At the gate of the mountain, Lu Xuanji met this uncle of the Danyang Sect.
This uncle left the family and went to the Danyang sect when he was twelve years old.
In the early days, this uncle received some support from the family to gain a firm foothold in the Danyang Sect; similarly, after this uncle became the foundation builder, he also gave the family some help and helped the family establish a certain degree of influence in the Danyang Sect. connections.
In his spare time, this uncle would go home and live for a while.
But after his parents passed away one after another, his relationship with the Lu family also weakened.
"You've grown up."
Lu Tianwen said dryly, feeling a little unfamiliar with this nephew.
But among the strangers, there was still a hint of surprise.
When his family was in decline and resources were scarce, this nephew only took the Foundation Building Pill once to successfully build the Foundation. It seemed that his talent and qualifications were very good.
With the Foundation Establishment Pill, there is only a 30% chance of becoming a Foundation Establishment monk.
Taking the Foundation Establishment Pill for the first time means that the Foundation Establishment is successful, which can be called a genius.
Among the sects, many monks took it two or three times in a row, and finally succeeded in building the foundation.
"Uncle, the cultivation speed is a bit slow. It is only the fourth level of foundation building."
Lu Xuanji frowned slightly.
This uncle was only building the foundation when he was thirty years old, but now he is one hundred and ten years old. He was only building the fourth level of the foundation, which was a bit slow.
"Nephew, the sect has the benefits of the sect, and the family has the benefits of the family. The sect trains you so that you can work well. In the Danyang sect, during the Qi training period, the benefits are very good, the tasks are relatively few, and the training time is relatively It is longer; but after entering the foundation building, the tasks are relatively complicated and the training time is relatively reduced... I am pretty good, at least I have a chance to attack the Zi Mansion before I am dead."
Lu Tianwen said with a smile.
In the family, it's just the opposite. During the Qi training period, the tasks are more complicated and the training time is relatively less; but after foundation building, the tasks are relatively easy and the training time is relatively long.
This is the difference between the family model and the sect model.
It’s hard to say whether this model is good or bad.
