In the retreat place on the mountainside, Song Chang'an is dressed in black, his eyes are burning, and there are sharp Sword Qi all over his body, which is so majestic that it makes people look at him.
Song Luhai, who was standing in for him Protector outside, nodded happily. "Yes, I have lived up to Lineage's cultivation of you. Lineage will rely on you to protect him in the future."
Song Luhai felt very deeply in his heart. There were not many monks of the fourth generation of "immortal" left, and Foundation Establishment Cultivator only had Patriarch and Great Elder left.
The fifth generation of monks named "Lu" suffered heavy losses in the war more than 20 years ago, their talents have withered greatly, and they are already somewhat unable to succeed.
This time made the old people at Lineage a little worried.
Fortunately, the sixth generation of "eldest" monks grew up much faster than they expected. Young Clan Head Song Changsheng's cultivation speed has surpassed that of the older generation of monks, which is enough to challenge Lineage in the future.
And this time Clan Competition, the monks of the "Chang" generation even beat the monks of the "Lu" generation and the "Qing" generation, taking the top three spots.
Now Song Chang'an has become Foundation Establishment Cultivator, the second "long" generation Lineage after Song Changsheng. This marks that the sixth generation of Lineage clan members have gradually grown into the backbone of Lineage.
After the "long" generation, the "green" generation is full of talents. Qingxing, Qingxi, Qingxia, Greenstone, Qinghong... are all immediate choices.
Song Luhai is not happy that his son has broken through Foundation Establishment. He is happy that Lineage has someone to succeed him, so that he will not fall into the same situation as Main Lineage.
"Lineage's upbringing, Changan will not forget it for a moment." Song Chang'an said in a deep voice.
"Well, you have just made a breakthrough. Let's consolidate your cultivation first, and then go visit Patriarch and Great Elder."
"My child obeys your orders." After breaking through Foundation Establishment, Song Chang'an's temperament is more calm than before, but he still cannot control his power well and seems to be too sharp.
Not long after Song Chang'an broke through, spiritual energy gathered in Song Changxue's retreat place, and Foundation Establishment officially began.
At this moment, Song Luzhou, who is outside Protector, seems a little anxious.
Just because Song Changxue is the only daughter of his younger brother Song Luomi.
Twenty years ago, Song Luomi died for Lineage. In the same year, his wife became ill from depression and passed away, leaving behind Song Changxue who was only fourteen years old.
Song Luzhou pulled her up with one hand and treated her better than his own daughter. He held her in his mouth for fear of melting and held it in his hand for fear of falling.
And Song Changxue also lived up to his expectations. With the talent of Three-Element Spiritual Root, he broke through to Qi Condensation Great Perfection at the age of less than thirty. He was also proficient in music and became the only Musical Harmonizer of Lineage.
Among the previous Clan Competition, he even reached the top three with his own strength and won the [Foundation Establishment Pill].
She is only thirty-five years old this year. If she can succeed Foundation Establishment, she will have a bright future.
"Xue'er, if you can overcome this hurdle, I can give your dead parents an explanation." Song Luzhou secretly prayed in his heart, hoping that luck would favor this poor child...
At this moment, Song Changxue's condition was not very good. She closed her eyes tightly, with a look of pain between her eyebrows, and a black air appeared on her pretty face from time to time.
There seemed to be a voice in her mind urging her to give up, lingering like a shadow, Song Changxue gritted her teeth and tried hard not to be affected by that voice.
But the more she couldn't do it, the voice became louder and louder, and her mind became exhausted.
"Give up, you can't succeed."
"Give up, give up..."
"If you don't stop, you will die..."
The voice seemed to break through her mind and began to whisper in her ears.
"Give up..."
"Will die..."
Song Changxue's delicate body began to tremble slightly, and invisible black energy spread from her body, turning into chains, gradually binding her...
Vast Peak nodded, Song Xianming looked at the gradually chaotic cyclone, and his expression changed slightly. "Something happened."
Song Xianyun also discovered the changes in the cyclone, and his expression suddenly became serious. He knew very well what this situation meant.
The first person to discover the accident was Song Luzhou. His heart sank to the bottom, and he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. However, facing this situation, he was powerless and could only pray secretly in his heart.
"Boom——"
Suddenly, the cyclone in the sky suddenly began to expand, then contracted extremely quickly and collapsed.
"Xue'er!"
Song Luzhou's eyes were about to burst, and it turned into a stream of light and rushed into Seclusion Chamber...
"Alas..."
Song Xianyun sighed quietly and closed his eyes in pain. He failed.
Although I know that after taking [Foundation Establishment Pill], there is only a 50% to 60% chance of breakthrough, but when it actually fails, it is still difficult for the old man to accept it. This is all the talent of Lineage...
"Fortunately, we can save one life. Let's go see the child." Song Xianming was a little helpless. This was the second breakthrough failure in the past few years, but Song Changxue was lucky. She at least saved one life.
The two of them came to the mountainside together and found that Song Luzhou was instilling Spiritual Power into Song Changxue like crazy, and all kinds of precious Medicinal Pills were stuffed into her mouth one by one.
"Song Luzhou, calm down. Changxue is caused by Inner Demon. It's useless what you do. Let's work together to exorcise her!"
Seeing Song Changxue's condition, Song Xianming's face changed drastically. He pulled Song Luzhou away, pinched [Taiqing Seal] with his hand, and quickly clicked on Song Changxue's Baihui, Shenting, and Yintang acupoints.
Song Xianyun also took out a golden Treasure Pearl, which emitted a blazing light and shone on Song Changxue's body.
In less than a quarter of an hour, wisps of black air came out of her eyes, ears, mouth and nose, and Song Changxue's originally gloomy complexion slowly returned to normal.
Concern leads to chaos. As Song Clan's top Alchemy Master, Song Luzhou didn't realize that Inner Demon was causing trouble, and almost delayed the best rescue time.
If Inner Demon is allowed to take root in her body, Song Changxue will fall into the devil's path before long.
At this time, Song Changxue woke up leisurely.
"Xue'er, how do you feel? Tell your uncle if you feel uncomfortable anywhere." Song Luzhou asked in a panic.
A trace of guilt appeared on Song Changxue's face, and he said with tears in his eyes, "Uncle, I'm sorry, Changxue was responsible for Lineage's cultivation and wasted one [Foundation Establishment Pill]."
"Good boy, you have done your best. Don't think too much and take good care of yourself." Song Xianming looked unbearable. These children were carrying too many and too heavy burdens.
"Song Luzhou, take Changxue down and have a good rest. If you need anything, just ask."
"Thank you, uncle." Song Luzhou's voice was a little hoarse, and he hugged Song Changxue and left, his back looking very lonely...
The failure of Song Changxue has cast a dark cloud in everyone's heart. There are three people who are still in retreat. Among them, Song Changxuan and Song Luyuan are nearly sixty years old. Seeing that [Foundation Establishment Pill] is hopeless, they choose the last resort. The chance of breakthrough is less than 20%.
Song Xianming is still more optimistic about Song Changxuan. Among the three people who won [Foundation Establishment Pill], he is the youngest and has the best talent. He condenses [Gold-Water Dao Foundation].
The probability of him breaking through Foundation Establishment is as high as 70%.
Under everyone's worried eyes, five days later, Song Changxuan finally broke through successfully and stepped into the Foundation Establishment Realm, and Song Clan added Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
However, Song Changxuan and Song Luyuan had bad luck and failed to break through one after another, and their souls died in heaven and earth.
The reality is bloody.
The road leading to Foundation Establishment is a single-plank bridge. Some people hesitate in front of it, while others muster up the courage to step on it.
Walking to the other side, you will live for more than a hundred years, and the future will be bright.
If it falls accidentally, it will be shattered into pieces.
Song Luyuan and Song Changxuan are not the first people to fall on this road, nor will they be the last.
I can only pray that Song Clan will cultivate the three main ingredients for refining [Foundation Establishment Pill] as soon as possible, which will always add some hope and a way out for them...
Liuyun Mountain Range, White Cloud Peak.
Wuling Sect's senior executives gathered together, holding the latest information from the spies in their hands, with their brows furrowed.
Since the last war, Liu Clan Lineage headed by Liu Hongye teamed up with two Foundation Establishment Rogue Cultivator and a large number of plundered Cultivation Family jointly established "Liuyun Sect". The sect's headquarters was established in the original Liuyun Market, which is now renamed Central Region of Liufeng Plain.
Because it absorbed a large amount of the Cultivation Family's power and also recruited Rogue Cultivator, Liuyun Sect's power expanded rapidly. Now there are six Foundation Establishment Cultivator and nearly 700 disciples, occupying a small half of the Liuyun Mountain Range and the entire Liufeng Plain.
In order to fight against the increasingly powerful "Liuyun Sect", Earth Fire Sect Great Elder Du Huating also took the opportunity to propose a merger plan.
After many negotiations and compromises, headed by the Earth Fire Sect, the original Liuyun Mountain Range Chou Clan and Li Clan were officially merged, with White Cloud Peak as the base camp, and "Wuling Sect" was established.
Their roots are basically in the Liuyun Mountain Range, and it makes sense to stay together now.
However, the base camp of their original ally Yu Clan is in the Wutong Mountain Range and will not face Liuyun Sect directly. Naturally, they are unwilling to merge into the so-called Wuling Sect.
But now Song Clan, Liuyun Sect, Wuling Sect, each one is stronger than the other, Yu Clan is determined to form an alliance with the Wang Clan, and make Wutong Mountain Range a monolith.
But Wang Clan is a loyal ally of the Song Clan. He ignores them at all and instead takes the opportunity to encroach on their territory.
Forced into desperation, Yu Clan had no choice but to agree to merge into the Wuling Sect and became a branch of the Wuling Sect.
After this operation, Wuling Sect's strength on paper has expanded to eleven Foundation Establishment Cultivator, and Disciples nearly a thousand, making Ling Province the largest force.
In comparison, Song Clan, which has only eight Foundation Establishment Cultivator and less than seven hundred Lineage monks, has lost much of an advantage. Even if it has now reached ten Foundation Establishment Cultivator, it still has not surpassed Wuling Sect. Wang Clan must be added to barely maintain its leading position.
It's a pity that whether it is Liuyun Sect or Wuling Sect, they are just river sands that are squeezed together by force. They are fine at ordinary times, but their true colors will be revealed once something big happens.
Within the Liuyun Sect, the Liu Clan tribe and the three Rogue Cultivator each formed a faction to compete for the right to speak in the sect. The composition of Disciples was even more complicated, and it would have been impossible to become a unified force without hundreds of years of time.
Wuling Sect is not much better. Yu Clan occupies nearly one-third of the power of the entire sect, but only surrenders in name.
Li Clan suffered heavy losses at the beginning. Although he later cultivated Li Hengzong into Foundation Establishment Cultivator by selling iron and steel, all the ordinary people were plundered by the Liuyun Sect, and most of the Lineage monks also died in the battle.
Completely marginalized within the Wuling Sect, Li Siyang has always been dissatisfied and secretly hooked up with the Chou Clan, who had a similar problem.
In addition, the three disciples of Qiu, Li, and Yu are all ethnic groups of blood, forming their own sect. They are extremely exclusive and cannot pee in the same pot.
This situation was even more obvious when facing the disciples of the Earth Fire Sect, who were unanimously squeezed out by the three families, leading to endless conflicts, which made Du Huating's head grow bigger.
Even so, he still gritted his teeth and persisted, carefully maintaining the balance of all parties.
Because he firmly believed that this situation was only temporary, and as long as Chang Wudao successfully broke through Purple Palace Stage, these problems would be solved.
It is because of this that the overall strength of the two sects declined instead of rising. No one dared to act rashly until the internal problems were solved, which made Ling Province fall into a rare calm.
Within the Council Hall, Yu Chengshan, who had been promoted to one of the four standing elders Wuling Sect Council of Elders, slammed the table and said righteously He said solemnly, "Hmph, I said at the beginning to concentrate resources to purchase a batch of [Foundation Establishment Pill], but you didn't listen to the overall strength of the sect. Now Song Clan has surpassed us.
For a long time in the future, we will not be able to make big progress, but Song Clan is different. In recent years, the strength has skyrocketed, and there is also a monster Song Changsheng. One is going down, the other is going up, and in less than thirty years, we will be stepped on by the Song Clan again!
Now, I propose to resume my previous proposal, collect 200,000 Spirit Stone, and send people to the Gusu Kingdom to purchase [Foundation Establishment Pill]. Who agrees and who objects? "
He stared at everyone Human Dao with wide eyes.
Qiu Tianyang, who is also the executive elder of Council of Elders, immediately sneered, "Silver Moon Demonic Wolf is heading north, and we don't know when a fierce battle will begin. If we don't hoard supplies at this time, what can we buy [Foundation Establishment Pill]?"
Executive Great Elder Du Huating also shook his head and said tactfully, "It's really inappropriate at this time. Let's discuss it later."
Li Siyang was even more direct, silent and did not express an opinion at all.
Of the four standing elders, two opposed and one abstained from voting. Yu Chengshan's proposal was aborted.
In fact, this is easy to understand. After the merger, the resources of the Earth Fire Sect, Chou Clan, and Li Clan were all concentrated in the sect Treasure Vault. In addition to the inheritance of their respective bases, they were basically all interoperable.
All you have to do is pay from Treasure Vault.
But Yu Clan only surrenders in name, and still manages his own money. If he wants to purchase [Foundation Establishment Pill], the sect Treasure Vault will naturally get the bulk of it, while the branch sect only needs to make a symbolic contribution.
But when it comes to allocation, it depends on strength. Yu Clan is second only to the Earth Fire Sect, so it will naturally get more.
Therefore, Yu Chengshan is actually making profits for Lineage.
Du Huating and Qiu Tianyang naturally objected to the idea of making wedding clothes for others.
This is not the first time that a situation like this has occurred. Everyone has different interests to consider, but they have great power but cannot exert it.
Du Huating can only place its hope on Chang Wudao. As long as he can break through Purple Palace Stage, Yu Clan will naturally obey and Li Clan and Chou Clan will not dare to stir up trouble anymore.
As for the Song Clan and the clown-like Liuyun Sect, there is no problem.
Looking at the crowd arguing over how to defend Silver Moon Demonic Wolf, Du Huating felt physically and mentally exhausted, and couldn't help but murmured in his heart, "Senior Martial Brother, Senior Martial Brother, when will you be able to leave seclusion..."
