Cultivation begins with the Shen family

Chapter 30 Arrangements
After the family contest ended, Shen Zhirui followed Shen Xiangchi back home at the behest of Shen Xiangchi.

"I heard that you are practicing sword skills recently?"

Shen Xiangchi sat on a chair, looked at Shen Zhirui and asked calmly.

Hearing this, Shen Zhirui nodded immediately, and then reported the progress of his cultivation during this period with the former, and also raised some problems in his cultivation by the way.

Although Shen Xiangchi is also just a qi training monk, after all, he has settled in the state of qi training Dzogchen for a long time, and his vision and experience are much higher than Shen Zhirui's.

Therefore, for now, he can still give advice to the latter, and even more so, how to make the necessary preparations for Foundation Establishment.

After answering a few questions, Shen Xiangchi said slowly with a slightly heavy expression:

"The most important thing for a Qi training monk to succeed in building a foundation is to condense the spiritual power accumulated in the dantian into a spiritual liquid, and at the same time penetrate the three orifices, so as to condense a powerful soul."

"In addition, monks need to plant the Dao Seed when building the Dao Foundation, so that they can communicate with the Dao of Heaven and Earth and prepare for future practice."

After hearing these words, Shen Zhirui couldn't help thinking, as if he was thinking about the key points in these words.

Although he had previously learned about the general process of foundation building from the family scripture library and various books he could obtain, these were scattered things, far less clear than the patriarch's explanation.

But just as he lowered his head to think, Shen Xiangchi had already taken out a jade talisman and handed it to him.

"You take this jade talisman first. Once you see this jade talisman light up, you immediately ask the second elder to take you to the underground black market in Shayu County."

black market!

Shen Zhirui's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at this extremely ordinary jade talisman in his hand in disbelief.

He is no stranger to the name of the black market. According to rumors, you can buy anything in it, so he has longed for it for a long time.

However, because of the concealment of the black market and the restrictions on the identity of entrants, he can only listen to its reputation but cannot enter it to see it.

Looking at the black market token in his hand now, it was impossible to say that he was not excited, but he soon thought of something.

"Grandfather, in this black market"

Facing his inquiry, Shen Xiangchi said in a deep voice again:

"I previously ordered a wood-based foundation-building exercise and a foundation-building spiritual object for you in the black market."

Hearing this, Shen Zhirui immediately raised his head to look at Shen Xiangchi, the excitement in his eyes could no longer be concealed.

Build a foundation!

For a qi cultivator who has aspirations in his heart, there is nothing more attractive than the word "foundation".

In his heart, although he is bound to win the foundation, the foundation-building exercises and spiritual objects suitable for him are hurdles that cannot be avoided.

No matter how outstanding his talent and understanding are, without these two things, it would be difficult to succeed in building a foundation.

In fact, Shen Zhirui began to pay attention to foundation building techniques and spiritual objects very early on. Before that, he yearned so much for the black market and hoped to obtain these two things related to his foundation building from the black market.

After all, he has the golden finger that can produce elixir, no matter how many spirit stones there are, it is not difficult for him.

He just didn't expect that his grandfather was already preparing it for him!

But before Shen Zhirui could speak again, Shen Xiangchi's deep voice rang in his ears again.

"After today, I will prepare to retreat and build a foundation. Although I have a high chance of success, I have to take precautions."

After hearing this, Shen Zhirui was slightly taken aback for a moment, and then he understood when he connected all the previous things.

The patriarch is already planning for the worst outcome!

At this time, he had mixed feelings in his heart, and seemed to have a lot to say, but when he saw his grandfather's calm expression, he calmed down, and immediately clapped his hands loudly and said:
"Grandson congratulates grandfather in advance on his success in building the foundation, and that he will take a step forward in his journey!"

Hearing this, Shen Xiangchi immediately smiled lightly, and said with a loud smile:

"it is good!"

After all, the expression on his face became serious again, and then he explained a few important things to Shen Zhirui.

After everything was explained, he let the latter leave.

"Okay, you go back first, remember what I told you!"

"Grandson must keep it in mind, grandson will leave!"

I saw that Shen Zhirui bowed his hands earnestly and said solemnly.

Looking at his leaving back, Shen Xiangchi's deep eyes once again showed a hint of deep thought.

However, not long after Shen Zhirui left, Shen Xiangchu in a blue shirt also came to Shen Xiangchi's room.

"Patriarch, are you looking for me?"

Seeing Shen Xiangchu coming in, Shen Xiangchi pondered for a moment, and then told him his plan to retreat and build a foundation.

The former was also taken aback when he heard the news, and after thinking about it for a long time, he said worriedly:

"Patriarch, are you really in such a hurry?"

"There's no way around this. We really don't have much time left. Instead of sitting and waiting for death, it's better to give it a go now."

Shen Xiangchi looked at the thick white snow outside the window, and said calmly, but his tone was full of pride.

On this side, Shen Xiangchu fell silent again, as if he was seriously considering the cause and effect of this matter.

As the head of the clan, Shen Xiangchi is not only the backbone of the Shen family, but also the guarantee for the Shen family to stand tall in Shayu County.

The process of building a foundation is a narrow escape for a qi cultivator. Once the former unfortunately falls, it will be a fatal blow to the family.

However, Shen Xiangchu could also feel the crisis in Sha Yu County, but he was not sure whether this crisis would make it impossible for the patriarch to get through if he did not break through, and whether he would take such a big risk to fight back.

After some deliberation, he looked up at Shen Xiangchi and said:
"Patriarch, so you are looking for me?"

"My retreat this time can be said to be life and death, so who do you think is the right person to pass on the position of the next patriarch?"

Shen Xiangchi met his eyes and asked word by word.

Hearing this, Shen Xiangchu's pupils shrank suddenly, and he, who was mature and mature, instantly realized the seriousness of this problem.

"Let's talk boldly, what else can we mind between our two old brothers?"

Obviously, Shen Xiangchi saw the former's reaction just now, so he spoke to comfort him.

On this side, Shen Xiangchu also began to think seriously, but soon he discovered something that disturbed him.

Now there are only a few people left in their descendants, and they are all too old to be the head of the clan.

As for the Taoist generation, there are only a few people who can stand alone, but they are still far from being able to serve as the patriarch.

Needless to say the rest of the zigzag generation, most of them have not yet grown up.

Judging from the current situation, once Shen Xiangchi falls, the family will face a situation where there will be no successors!
And this situation will be fatal for a family!

"I plan to let Zhirui take over the position of patriarch!"

At this time, Shen Xiangchi's voice suddenly rang in his ears.

"His talent is even higher than mine, and he will be the person most likely to succeed in foundation establishment in the next generation of the family."

After hearing this, Shen Xiangchu did not speak immediately, and it was not difficult to see from his expression that he was already prepared.

After a moment of silence, he finally expressed the worry in his heart.

"Zhirui's child is indeed a genius of the family. He has already broken through the late stage of Qi training when he is less than 20 years old. It's just that he is too young. If he is the patriarch, he may be inexperienced."

"Zhi Rui is indeed too young, so I hope that you and the second elder can assist him as much as possible so that he can grow up as soon as possible."

Shen Xiangchi looked at him and said very calmly.

"it is good"

After some thought, Shen Xiangchu met his eyes and agreed directly without any other words.

At the same time, when their eyes met, they all laughed at the same time.

. . . . . .

The progress of the plot cannot be modified now, because all the previously saved manuscripts are posted now, and it will affect the whole body, but the next chapter will start a dungeon plot.

In addition, there will be an update starting tomorrow, and we will see the specific situation in early March.
