Sun's journey to immortality

From this point of view, monks such as Sun Mingsheng who can directly receive inheritance from their families are even better than some sect disciples who are not taken seriously.

Everything in the sect requires monks to pay a price to redeem it, and the redemption price of some inherited techniques is particularly expensive.

In fact, the same requirement exists among some powerful families, and it is also a good strategy for sustainable development.

But for a small family like the Sun family, which lives in a corner, it is obviously impossible to meet this requirement. After all, there are only a few foundation-building monks in the family.

For the Sun family, any monk who can be promoted to the foundation building stage is a cutting-edge combat force that protects the development of the family. The cultivation of these monks in the foundation building stage cannot be delayed in order to exchange for some spiritual objects.

Of course, if there are enough opportunities in the future to develop the family even more powerful, corresponding policies may one day be formulated.

"Mingsheng relied on Huo Yuan Zhensha to advance to the foundation building stage?"

"He just left the family and stayed in the Beast Control City for only three to five years before he advanced to foundation building. Is it possible that there are all kinds of spiritual objects everywhere in the Beast Control City?"

"The goods are genuine. Mingxiu saw him going to visit his great-aunt and his old man with his own eyes."

As time passed, news of Sun Mingsheng's promotion to Foundation Establishment began to spread within the family, and all family members were naturally happy about this matter.

After all, for the Sun family, each additional foundation-building monk means an increase in family strength and the opportunity to earn more spiritual stones.

Perhaps the only ones who are under some pressure are Sun Mingzeng and Sun Xunkang. They have been quietly waiting for their ancestor Sun Changfeng to bring back the foundation-building spiritual objects they purchased.

Sun Changfeng's trip lasted several years. During this period, except for bringing the news of the successful purchase of foundation-building spiritual objects back to his family, he did not return halfway.

It is said that he and some old friends of a similar age went to some dangerous places to hunt monsters and find elixirs. In short, the purpose was to use all their strength to strengthen the family heritage before the longevity was exhausted.

These veteran cultivators can live to be nearly three hundred years old and have extremely rich experience. All adventures are based on their own safety.

As for the specific location of the adventure they chose, no one in the family knew it, but it should be within the scope of the Song Dynasty.

"If we could have found three or five more earth essence minerals, why would we have to wait here for the foundation-building spiritual objects purchased by our ancestors today?" In a small single-family courtyard, Sun Mingzeng's face was filled with sadness.

From the moment he embarked on the path of spiritual practice, he has always been a talented monk who has been cared for and trained by the entire family. He has been provided with all kinds of suitable materials and treasures, and the family has never been stingy in the slightest.

In the past time, he has always believed that he can lead the entire family to a new level and glory in the future.

I never expected that today he would not be the first monk of his generation to be promoted to the Foundation Establishment Stage. This was obviously a big blow to Sun Mingzeng.

"Sharpening the sword will not waste time chopping wood, and building the foundation is just the beginning of practice." However, as a qualified monk, strong and stable mental ability is the primary factor.

Sun Mingzeng quickly suppressed this slightly jealous emotion, and his past ambitions resurfaced in his mind.

After all, in a sense, a monk's qualifications are always an extremely important factor in the early stage of practice, and are also a natural and indelible advantage.

Compared to Sun Mingzeng's entanglement, the patriarch Sun Xunmu, who had stabilized his cultivation and had left seclusion, had a completely different reaction after hearing the news.

"The blue is better than the blue. If there is enough opportunity, there may not be a golden elixir-level monk in the family in the future." Sun Xunmu's eyes burst with light.

Whether a family has a Golden Core monk sitting in command or not has completely different implications for the family and its status in the entire Song Dynasty.

Because there are no Yuanying stage monks, within the entire Song Dynasty, the Golden Core stage monks represent the top combat effectiveness in the world of cultivation.

If there is no Golden Core monk in a family, they can only passively accept different orders; on the contrary, if there is a Golden Core monk in charge, they can become one of the decision-makers.

Therefore, for small and medium-sized families, including the Sun family, it is the common wish of the family elders to gather the strength of the whole family and cultivate a golden elixir stage monk.

This is also the fundamental reason why the family did not hesitate to invest various resources in key cultivation after discovering Sun Mingzeng's cultivation aptitude for dual spiritual roots.

Sun Xunmu has been the patriarch of the family for nearly thirty years. In this special position, he has a deeper understanding of the obsessions of the family ancestors in the past generations.

Although building the foundation in advance does not mean that there will be an opportunity to condense the golden elixir in the future, it is finally an additional opportunity for the entire family, and it is beneficial without any additional expenditure.

In the future, some resources will definitely be invested in Sun Mingsheng. Even if he cannot condense the golden elixir, a high-level foundation-building monk will still be of great use.

Sun Changfeng, who is the family's sea-fixing needle, still has a short life span. Once this senior monk dies, there will no longer be a late-stage foundation-building monk in the family.

Compared to these two people, Sun Xunkang, who was in charge of Lanshanfang City, seemed much calmer. Apart from being happy about the increase in family strength, he had no other impact.

"The addition of two foundation-building monks in succession is God's blessing to the Sun family. The future prosperity of the family is no longer an unattainable dream." Sun Xunkang secretly made up his mind to be promoted to foundation-building as soon as possible to contribute to the family.

As for the other two foundation-building families in Pingyang County, Yan and Zhao, in addition to being secretly vigilant, they also invariably increased their support for the younger generations of the family.

After all, the Sun family now has seven foundation-building monks, and they already have a sufficient advantage in terms of numbers. In order to ensure the family's status, they naturally need to pursue them endlessly.

The three families all belong to Pingyang County, and the cultivation resources in the entire county are basically controlled by the three foundation-building families. The basic balance that can be maintained now is the balance between forces.

Once the balance of power between the three families is lost, the consequences will be unimaginable, and there will definitely be some conflicts and struggles due to various spiritual objects.

On the contrary, if the Yan and Zhao families add two foundation-building monks in a short period of time, the Sun family will definitely feel a sense of crisis and take similar actions.

The entire Pingyang County is disappearing rapidly due to the competition between the three families and the efforts of the members of each family.

Two years passed in a flash, and Sun Mingsheng, who was on the second floor of the Sutra Pavilion, finally opened his closed eyes and truly completed the practice of the "Fire Flame Soul Control Art", which was also the first level of foundation building. , but his strength has increased by half compared to the initial stage of his promotion.
