Immortal Path Evergreen

After Zhang Zhixuan and Qingchan returned to Chaoyin Mountain from Jiangkou County, almost a year had passed. During this year, the clan leader had led everyone to migrate the mortals of the Ma family to more than a dozen towns in Lushan County.

In order to prevent the monks from the descendants of these mortals from forming a group and affecting the stability of the family monks, the monks of the Zhang family dispersed all the Ma family members and divided them into different villages.

These mortals with the surname Ma, without the protection of the monks, have now become dogs without a home, and dare not violate the decision of the Zhang family monks.

After they came to the vicinity of Lushan, they began to intermarry with the Zhang clan on a large scale, and quite a few of them changed their surnames to Zhang on the spot.

In the more than 30 years since Zhang Zhixuan came down from the mountain, although the family had more than 20 people killed and injured in two wars, the number of monks did not increase much, but the number of mortals increased dramatically.

The mortals of the Zhang family in Lushan County, together with the Zhou family who have integrated in recent years, have exceeded 70,000. Although the population of the dozen towns near Lushan County has not increased as fast as that of the Zhang family, it has also exceeded 60,000.

Moreover, the Zhang family has built a county town in Wanshe Cave. Although the development time is still short, the population in the city has exceeded 10,000.

A town was also built here in Chaoyin Mountain, and many clansmen were relocated. In addition to the 20,000 Ma family members who moved here this time, the population controlled by the Zhang family in Lushan has exceeded 160,000.

This population base has almost caught up with the Wu family in Yanlai Peak, but it is still a long way from the Liu family, which has the longest roots in Taicheng County.

Their family has the largest mortal base. Now four large cities have been built in Taibai Mountain. The population of the Liu family exceeds 300,000. In addition to the vassal population living in Taibai Mountain, the population controlled by the Liu family has exceeded 500,000.

Because of the huge population base, their family is the largest and has the most cultivators. They have opened up hundreds of acres of spiritual fields. The annual income from the spiritual fields alone is a huge number.

This family is actually the most stable. Just relying on the spiritual fields on the mountain, every sixty years, their family can earn more than 10,000 spiritual stones in profit, which can be exchanged for a foundation-building pill from Qingxuan Sect.

So over the years, although other families have experienced ups and downs, every generation of the Liu family has had cultivators who have successfully established their foundations. They have also been passed down for a long time. Although they are not as prosperous as the Zhang and Wu families, which have produced purple mansion cultivators, they are far more stable than the Zhang and Wu families.

After the patriarch moved the mortals of the Ma family to Lushan, he came to Chaoyin Mountain without resting and replaced Qingchan and Zhang Zhixuan to return to the mountain gate.

Here in Chaoyin Mountain, since the family has occupied the shares, it must send people to guard the spiritual stone veins. The three foundation-building cultivators of the Zhang family must take out one to stay in Chaoyin Mountain, and even the cultivators in the Qi training period must be sent 30 people.

Chaoyin Mountain has a fourth-level spiritual vein. The spiritual energy intensity on the mountain exceeds that of the family's best spiritual vein Lingjing Mountain. Arranging some cultivators to practice in Chaoyin Mountain actually reduces the burden on the family's spiritual veins and allows the Zhang family to cultivate more people to practice.

In the last Chaoyin Mountain battle, Zhang Zhixuan did not send back any news, which made the clan leader worried, so he repeatedly asked to replace Zhang Zhixuan to guard Chaoyin Mountain and let Zhang Zhixuan return to the safer Tiantai Peak.

After defeating Hongshan Sect, it is impossible for a war to break out in Chaoyin Mountain for the time being, unless Hongshan Sect wants to jump into war again.

However, the high-level cultivators of the sect are not as strong as others, and the fourth-level formation-breaking beads have been used up. It is difficult to attack Yuntai Mountain where three purple palaces are stationed, even if Hongshan Sect’s Yang Patriarch is dispatched.

Moreover, Hongshan Sect cannot be sure whether Jinlan Taoist is hiding in Yuntai Mountain. Once Qingxuan Sect withdraws more manpower, two or three purple palace cultivators of Hongshan Sect will die, and then it will really be close to extinction.

Unless the Southern Wilderness monsters invade and Qingxuan Sect cannot withdraw manpower, the cultivators of Hongshan Sect may launch a large-scale attack and take the opportunity to recapture Yuntai Mountain and Jiangkou County.

It is expected that Chaoyin Mountain will be safe for at least several decades, and Zhang Zhixuan also agreed to the clan leader's request to let him come to Chaoyin Mountain to replace him.

When the clan leader came, Zhang Zhixuan took the clan leader to find Sun Changgeng, a purple mansion cultivator in Chaoyin Mountain, and completed the handover. Only then did he take Qingchan back to the family mountain gate.

The two third-level spiritual veins of the family must not be left unguarded, otherwise there would be bold casual cultivators who came to rob, which would easily cause serious losses.

Zhang Zhixuan asked Qingchan to stay in Lingjing Mountain where he had lived for many years, and he returned to Tiantai Peak. After he came to Tiantai Peak, he did not occupy the clan leader's cave, but lived in Wangyue Pavilion.

Zhang Zhixuan practiced in Wangyue Pavilion when he was a teenager, and his cave on Tiantai Peak was near Wangyue Pavilion.

However, more than 20 of them shared the spiritual cave of Wangyue Pavilion, but now this spiritual cave belongs to him alone.

Even though Zhang Zhixuan's cultivation has reached the fifth level of foundation building, the spiritual energy generated by the spiritual cave of Wangyue Pavilion is barely enough for him to use, and Zhang Zhixuan can also use spiritual stones to supplement the insufficient part.

As the family monks dispersed to Lingjing Mountain, Wanshe Cave, and part of Chaoyin Mountain, there were not many people on the ancestral land of Tiantai Peak. Except for a dozen elderly monks stationed in the Sutra Library, the mountain had become deserted.

Now the place with the most family monks is Lingjing Mountain, where the top-grade spiritual stones are used to cultivate the spiritual veins, and there are also trees that gather spiritual energy. The spiritual energy on the mountain is more abundant than that on Tiantai Peak.

Not only do more than 30 underage monks live on Lingjing Mountain, but more than a dozen people live in the spiritual fields at the foot of the mountain. Including Qingchan, who opened up a cave in Lingjing Mountain, there are already 47 monks here.

Since Uncle 19 Zhang Mengling went to Black Mountain to manage the Treasure Pavilion, Uncle 11 Zhang Menghong became the one who managed the family affairs on Tiantai Peak.

One day, Zhang Zhixuan was meditating when Uncle 11 came to the Moon Viewing Pavilion with a serious look on his face. When Zhang Zhixuan slowly finished his practice, Uncle 11 spoke, "Zhixuan, a letter just came from Xihefang saying that Hu Boyu of the Hu family wants to see you."

Zhang Zhixuan had seen Hu Peiyu's magical powers in Chaoyin Mountain. She took down Dong Hongyu, who was one level higher than her, with almost no effort, and it took her less time than Lu Hongniang.

Zhang Zhixuan was very taboo about the Hu family in Jiuhua Mountain. Even if he and Qingchan successfully opened up the Purple Mansion in the future, he would not easily provoke them.

The Zhang and Hu families had a blood feud. Hu Boyu's cultivation was already at the ninth level of foundation building. He was also Hu Peiyu's father. Who knew if he had any powerful trump cards.

Once Hu Boyu had ill intentions towards him, just like Zhang Leqian used a Tiangang Divine Thunder Talisman to beat Lu Yian, Zhang Zhixuan would not be able to survive.

Zhang Zhixuan's family knew his own affairs. He personally killed Hu Boren, the foundation-building cultivator of the Hu family.

The most direct hatred between the Zhang and Hu families was that Hu Boren killed Uncle Jiu Zhang Mengquan, and Zhang Zhixuan and the clan leader killed Hu Boren in the Southern Wilderness in turn.

As for the casualties in Jiuhua Mountain and Xihefang, the Hu family did not come forward in person, but hid in the dark. The ones who took action were Wei Mazi and other casual cultivators who fled from the Wu Kingdom, and all of them died at the hands of Hu Peiyu.

"Does the letter say where to meet?" Zhang Zhixuan took the letter and asked before he had time to read it.
