Family Cultivation: Evergreen of the Song Family

After putting down the jade slip, Song Changsheng's heart was pounding. He finally understood why Zhu Yiqun said he had made a fortune. The value of the things recorded in this jade slip could no longer be measured by "spiritual stones".

"Well, I didn't lie to you, did I? For this stuff, you have to at least give me five more jars of [Bamboo Leaf Green]." Zhu Yiqun said with a smile.

Although Song Changsheng was excited at the moment, he was not to the point of being fooled. Hearing this, he could not help but glare at him and said, "I don't have the rule of raising the price here. I'll ask you to copy it when the time comes."

"Tsk, look at how stingy you are." Zhu Yiqun rolled his eyes at him and then started rummaging through the pile of broken jade slips.

On the other hand, Song Changsheng's mood was still difficult to calm down for a long time. What was recorded in the jade slip was nothing else but a magical power, a real magical power!
In today's world, supernatural powers are generally divided into three types, namely innate supernatural powers, minor supernatural powers, and great supernatural powers.

Innate supernatural powers are those that cultivators are born with or that they comprehend by chance when they break through the Purple Mansion or Golden Elixir. Their strength varies, and the strength is greatly related to the user's cultivation level, such as the [Yin Yang Nirvana] that Song Changsheng comprehended when he broke through the Purple Mansion.

Minor supernatural powers can usually only be practiced by Purple Mansion cultivators and above. Their power surpasses that of spells. They consume a lot of energy to use and must be activated by magic power, such as [Mountain Flipping Seal], [Tiangang Cover], etc.

Minor supernatural powers are castrated versions of great supernatural powers. There is a world of difference between the two in terms of power and consumption. Generally, only cultivators above the Jindan stage can use them freely, and there are very few of them. It is said that there are only more than a thousand kinds in existence.

It sounds like a lot, but the world of cultivation has developed for so many years, and there are more than ten thousand cultivators at the Jindan stage and above. Therefore, each one is extremely precious and almost all of them are secrets that are not passed on.

Most cultivators can only practice those commonly found on the market.

Even if it is a common product, it is still priced sky-high. Even a Jindan cultivator would feel painful when paying such a large amount of money.

The Song family's ancestral lineage has existed for thousands of years, and during this period, more than ten Jindan-stage cultivators have emerged. But as far as Song Changsheng knows, the ancestral lineage only possesses five major magical powers, three of which are common stuff.

This is the case with the ancestral lineage, not to mention the Song family. Before the ancestor Song Taiyi was expelled, he had no qualifications to come into contact with such a core inheritance.

Of course, he should also be thankful that he did not come into contact with the core inheritance, otherwise it would not be as simple as being expelled from the family.

The magical power recorded in the jade slip that Zhu Yiqun found is called [The Universe in the Sleeve]. It is not some ordinary magical power, but an extremely superior one.

As the saying goes, the world is hidden in your sleeves and nothing is left uncollected.

Legend has it that if this magical power is cultivated to the extreme, one can create a small world in the sleeve, which can not only collect people's magic weapons, but even allow living creatures to survive in it. It is truly terrifying.

But legends are just legends. To create a world of one's own is a skill only available to immortals. Mortals like them should not dream of such unrealistic dreams.

Even so, this is also an extremely powerful magical power, more precious than any current inheritance of the Song family.

However, although it is precious, the threshold for practicing it is also very high. Not only does it require superhuman comprehension, but it also requires sufficient mana to support the consumption.

Just this last point is enough to kill 99% of the Purple Mansion cultivators.

Although Song Changsheng's magic power is strong, the consumption of power to support such a powerful magical power as [The Universe in the Sleeve] is still somewhat insufficient.

However, this does not affect his cultivation. The limitation of magic power is only temporary. There will always be a day when it will be useful after successful cultivation. His ambition is not just to reach the Purple Mansion Stage.

After asking the fat boy to keep the jade slip properly, Song Changsheng joined the exploration team again with full of fighting spirit.

The three of them searched the treasure house for a full fifteen hours, leaving no corner unsearched. They dug deep into the ground, and they were just short of turning the entire treasure house upside down.

Unfortunately, apart from the [Bai Sha Qiongqi Cauldron] and [The Universe in the Sleeve], the three of them did not find any other precious treasures.

Of course, preciousness is only relative. After they summarized it in the end, they finally got two well-preserved minor magical powers, namely [Palm Thunder] and [Turning Body into Sword].

Both of these are extremely superior minor magical powers.

[Palm Thunder] It is extremely yang and strong, and can release thunder from the inner Laogong of the cultivator. It has a strong inhibitory effect on the devil, ghosts, and plant spirits.

Its biggest advantage is that it has low consumption and fast speed, and can be released continuously in a short period of time, making it difficult to resist.

The disadvantage is that its power is not as strong as other minor magical powers of the same level. It can generally only be used as a consumption in a fight and does not have the ability to make the final decision.

As for the other minor magical power, [Turning the Body into a Sword], the threshold for cultivation is higher and it is only suitable for sword practitioners.

This is a method that can play a decisive role in a fight, or a method of making a last gamble in a desperate situation.

After practicing, a sword force will accumulate in the cultivator's body. The longer the time, the stronger the sword force will be. At the critical moment, he can use himself as a sword to cut out the accumulated sword force. When the sword force accumulates to the extreme, this sword is enough to kill the enemy across levels.

But the disadvantage is that before hurting others, you hurt yourself first. The more sword power accumulates, the greater the damage to yourself when it is released. It is a life-and-death struggle.

Therefore, in a fight, cultivators often only have one chance to use it.

If he cannot defeat the enemy with one blow, he will lose any ability to resist, which is similar to the [Formation Carved with Body] that Song Changsheng once obtained.

But the subtlety of [Carving the Formation with the Body] is that when used, it will only drain the magic power in the cultivator's body and will not cause too much impact on the body.

The two minor magical powers each have their own strengths, and Song Changsheng is quite satisfied with them.

In addition to these two complete ones, there are three broken ones. The jade slips that recorded them were partially destroyed over the long years. It is possible to repair them, but it is not a simple matter. Song Changsheng asked Zhu Yiqun to make a copy of them and threw them into the storage bag. It can at least be exchanged for some merits, which can be used to exchange for other things.

In addition to the minor magical powers, there are nearly a hundred well-preserved jade slips and animal skins, which record a variety of things, including mental methods, pill recipes, cultivation insights, personal travel notes, etc.

Unfortunately, there was only one third-level mental method, and the Song family already possessed it. Song Changsheng was too lazy to even make a copy of it and directly threw it into the storage bag to exchange for merits.

I made a copy of all the remaining ones and will organize them when I return.

Apart from that, there were only some broken animal skins left, and it was difficult to get complete information from them. Song Changsheng did not let go of any of them and collected them all.

These are the main gains of Song Changsheng and Zhu Yiqun.

The remaining pile was all found by Song Qingxing. Some of them were spiritual materials, and the other part were relatively intact magical tools.

The spiritual materials are mainly various types of smelted metal ingots, and some unknown animal bones, pearls, scales and other items.

There were originally quite a few medicated herbs and seeds, but unfortunately they could not survive the erosion of these long years.

Song Changsheng even saw a [Yin Yang Purple Tree Sapling] inside. The tree core taken out after it grows up can help cultivators break through the Purple Mansion.

Unfortunately, he is already dead and cannot die anymore. I am so heartbroken that I cannot breathe.

Fortunately, there were still a lot of spiritual materials preserved, which made Song Changsheng feel a little better and began to pick them.

This is Song Changsheng’s favorite part, which is as exciting as opening a blind box.

"Big monster spine, white tiger sharp teeth, [deep sea black iron], dragon carp scales..."

Song Changsheng knew all the spiritual materials like the back of his hand, and had a clear understanding of the value of each one. Not to mention, there were quite a few good things, and he had already seen several third-tier ones. He picked and chose, putting the ones he wanted to keep on one side and the ones he wanted to give away on the other side, and soon the pile of spiritual materials was empty.

Unfortunately, there was no surprise. The most valuable piece of spiritual material in this pile of spiritual materials was the [Deep Sea Black Iron], which was as big as a watermelon and was enough to be used to refine a third-grade top-grade magical weapon.

Although Song Changsheng felt a little regretful for not finding the fourth-level spiritual material, he was not too discouraged. After all, he had already gained a lot this time.

Finally, there was the pile of magical weapons. There were quite a few of them, at least nearly twenty, but not a single one was complete. Song Changsheng picked them out and finally put them all into the storage bag. In his opinion, these magical weapons were useless except for exchanging for merits.

As a result, all the remaining treasures in the treasure house were taken by Song Changsheng. The three of them were in a good mood. When they were about to explore another place, a dull noise came from far away and drilled into their ears.

The ground beneath their feet also began to shake slightly.

"Someone is fighting, and they must be at least at the Purple Mansion level." Song Changsheng raised his eyebrows slightly.

There are only two Purple Mansion cultivators, him and Yuying, in this relic. Everything is normal on his side, so the problem must be on Yuying's side.

Song Changsheng suddenly became curious. Although Yuying joined the Jinwu Sect later, her status was still not comparable to that of ordinary people. If he wanted to take action against her, he had to think carefully.

"Could it be the Tianmai Sect?"

After thinking about it, it seems that this is the only possibility.

"Let's go and take a look?" Zhu Yiqun said with great interest.

Song Changsheng frowned slightly, shook his head and said, "We should not get involved in this matter, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

"That's right. We got so many treasures. It's better for us to run away as soon as possible."

……

Unfortunately, things went against their wishes. As soon as they returned to the ground from the treasure house, they ran into Yuying who was running for her life.

After seeing him, Yuying, who looked a little embarrassed, felt like she had met a savior. She hurriedly said, "The evil spirit is rampant. Daoist Zixu, please lend a helping hand to the four of us. I will definitely reward you handsomely in the future!"

"Sha Ling?"

Song Changsheng paused, and looked past Yuying and behind her. Sure enough, there was a dark figure with a murderous aura following them closely.

"Third level evil spirit!"

Although they had not fought yet, Song Changsheng could tell at a glance that it was a third-level evil spirit.

Now everything made sense. He had guessed at the time that there might be a third-level evil spirit in the treasure house, but no trace of it had been found before. Unexpectedly, Yuying and the others ran into it.

The strength of this evil spirit was obviously extraordinary. Yuying was a cultivator in the middle stage of Purple Mansion after all, but she was chased by it so badly.

"What should we do?" Zhu Yiqun looked at Song Changsheng subconsciously.

Song Changsheng's eyes flickered slightly. He and Yuying had a shallow relationship. Even if he turned around and left now, no one could say anything to him.

He originally thought so, but just now, Xiaojiu mentioned something to him, which instantly changed his mind.

This evil spirit is of great use to him!
So he stood up decisively and said loudly: "Don't worry, Friend Yu, I will help you right away!"

After saying that, he turned around and looked at Zhu Yiqun and Song Qingxing and said, "I'm going to deal with that evil spirit. You two stay away from here, the farther the better."

"Don't worry, I will definitely keep my nephew under your care."

Zhu Yiqun didn't ask any questions and took Song Qingxing away from the sky above the ruins without any delay, which was very straightforward.

After watching them leave, Song Changsheng immediately went towards Yuying.

"Small magical power [Mountain Seal]"

It was as if a real seal was falling down. The evil spirit felt threatened and stopped immediately, with his two arms extending out like rubber bands.

"boom--"

The two collided, unleashing astonishing energy.

"Hiss~ You're looking for death!"

The evil spirit let out an angry roar, and the evil spirit on its body began to surge violently. A spear made of pure blood evil spirit condensed in front of it, piercing through the air and attacking Song Changsheng's heart.

Song Changsheng's eyes were like torches. He took a step forward, and the Yin and Yang Qis swept out, forming a black and white barrier in front of him. The evil spear hit it and suddenly seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, unable to move forward...

Seeing the two of them in a stalemate, Yuying, who had just escaped, looked at her four disciples and said in a deep voice, "You should leave here quickly. I am going to help Daoist Fellow Zixu."

She was about to turn around when someone grabbed her sleeve.

Yuying frowned and asked, "Qiu Sheng, what are you doing?"

Chen Qiusheng glanced at where Song Changsheng was, and said with a twinkling gaze: "Master, that evil spirit is very powerful, probably surpassing the average late Purple Mansion cultivator. Even if you two work together, you may not be its opponent. Why don't we take this opportunity to leave directly?"

After he said this, everyone looked at him in shock.

Before Yuying could say anything, her only female disciple Li Qingyue angrily scolded Chen Qiusheng, "How can you say such a thing? You are putting our Master in an unjust position!"

"Yes, Senior Brother, Master Zixu just saved us."

Facing the rebuke from his fellow apprentices, Chen Qiusheng said indifferently: "That's better than committing suicide, right?"

"Snapped!"

A crisp sound was heard, and half of Chen Qiu Sheng's cheek suddenly swelled up.

Yuying's beautiful eyes were filled with murderous intent, and she angrily said, "In life, trust and loyalty should be the most important thing. Do you really want me to be a person without trust and loyalty?

Qingyue, seal his acupoints and wait for the master to come back before dealing with him!"
