Chapter Seventy-Six: Sihong Purple Mansion
After leaving the Huanshui Sect, Zhang Zhixuan immediately returned to the underground cave of Lingjing Mountain, and after sending Chen Yunfeng and the three of them away, he returned to Montenegro with Qingchan.
This time to open up the Purple Mansion, Sihong used two auxiliary spiritual objects, and the value of the resources consumed was no less than that of Ziyang Warm Jade.
However, because he was using the Five Elements Spiritual Object, once he failed to break through, he would need to cultivate for twenty or thirty years. According to Sihong's age, in another twenty or thirty years, his vitality will fail, and there is no possibility of going further.
In order to break through the bottleneck, Sihong borrowed 30,000 good deeds from his family, and if he couldn't open up the Purple Mansion, the debt of these 30,000 good deeds could crush him.
In the following decades, it was impossible for his family to continue to provide him with resources, and in order to repay the debt of 30,000 good deeds, he could only run around every day, completing family tasks to earn good deeds to pay off the debts.
In fact, he only has one chance to break through, and if he can't succeed this time, he can only stay in the foundation building realm in this life.
Sihong has been in retreat for about three years, and his accumulation is even stronger than that of Zhang Zhixuan, he is already one hundred and sixty years old, and he has cultivated to the ninth layer of the Purple Mansion for almost fifty years. Coupled with the refining of the Heavenly Eye Treasure Light Technique, nine of the seventeen points in the upper dantian had been opened, and compared to normal monks, the difficulty of opening the upper dantian was only half of the difficulty.
After three years of arduous retreat, Sihong finally lived up to expectations, opened the upper dantian, and refined his divine consciousness into the Mud Pill Palace.
Seeing a whirlpool of aura with a radius of dozens of zhang appearing in the cave where he was retreating, Zhang Zhixuan and Qingchan glanced at each other with relief and said, "It seems that eight or nine are not far from ten." ”
The aura of Montenegro is already good, and there is no need to refine spirit stones to replenish the aura, even if the aura vortex is constantly extracting aura, it cannot drain the aura of Montenegro.
Sihong built the foundation at the age of more than forty, and it took two Jiazi to finally break through to the Purple Mansion Realm.
Sihong broke through to the Purple Mansion, and Zhang Zhixuan was relieved. has supported the younger generations of the family for many years, and finally there is a successor. After he stabilized his realm, Zhang Zhixuan also began to recall the foundation building monks of the Zhang family on a large scale, and asked them to come to Montenegro to participate in Sihong's Purple Mansion Celebration.
In the past 30 years since Zhang Zhixuan and others left, the development of the Zhang family has been very rapid, not only have three people in the family to build the foundation, but the spiritual veins such as Huangyan Mountain and Spider Mountain are on the right track, which can bring a lot of income every year. Montenegro has also restored the heyday of Liang Laozu's era, and the income of Fang City has also increased.
After waiting for almost a month, Sijin and Tonghuai gathered in Montenegro, and even Sidao and Lan Niang, who were in the sect, also came to the Black Mountain Cave Mansion.
Si Dao is over one hundred and seventy years old, and because of the mistaken elixir, his vitality is greatly damaged, and Shou Yuan only has ten years left.
However, he has a more open-minded personality, although he is full of gray hair and looks trembling, but his spirit is still relatively full. At this family meeting, he happily took his daughter to the top of Montenegro.
Counting the three clansmen who have not been building the foundation for a long time, the Zhang family now has two Jin Dan and two Zifu, and the monks in the foundation building period are not counting the small sect Zhang Luoyun, and there are also sixteen foundation building monks, as for the monks in the Qi cultivation period, it is about ten times more than two hundred years ago.
Seeing that there were more than a dozen people standing together in the cave mansion, Zhang Zhixuan was also a little relieved in his heart, and said: "The reason why I summoned everyone today is because Sihong has opened up the Purple Mansion, and there are successors in the family, so let you come back to help organize his Purple Mansion celebration."
The second is because the rebellion of the demon beasts in the Southern Wilderness is approaching, and the family is ready to shrink temporarily and transfer you back to Montenegro to guard against the invasion of the demon beasts.
The third is that Jin Laozu wants us to join the Qingxuan Sect with our family, and we need to ask your opinions.
According to the agreement between me and Jin Laozu, the monks in the family can exchange the good deeds of the family for the good deeds of the sect, and you will not have to repay the part of the arrears of the Zhuji Dan in exchange for them, and all the floating wealth in the family will be divided by you except for the spirit stones in the treasury of the Black Mountain Mansion. The spiritual mountains and spiritual veins in the family are all discounted and exchanged for the good deeds of Qingxuanzong, and this part of the good deeds will be distributed to me and Qingchan, which can be regarded as compensation for the resources we have invested in the family over the years.
I am already a little tempted by this condition, if there are clansmen who are unwilling to join the Qingxuan Sect, they can carve out a few spiritual mountains from the spiritual veins controlled by the family to settle you. ”
Although Zhang Zhixuan has married a wife, he has no blood heirs, and he is far from the blood relationship of the monks in his family, and none of these monks in the foundation building period are his blood relatives of three generations.
Although the monks in the foundation building period of the family respected him very much, they were not too close.
Hearing Zhang Zhixuan say this, more than a dozen foundation building monks in the family suddenly let out a burst of whispered discussions, Si Jin glanced at Tong Huai with a heavy face behind him, and said boldly: "Fourteenth uncle, the family is now developing day by day, why bother to join the Qingxuan Sect?" ”
Over the years, Sijin has held most of the family's affairs, except for matters of importance to discuss with Sihong, small matters are almost arbitrary.
The worship of the monks in the foundation building period of Qingxuanzong is not as much as that of the Zhang family, and the task is also more dangerous.
Although there is no need to repay the arrears of good deeds when joining the Qingxuan Sect, a monk like Si Jin, who has built the foundation for many years, has already paid off the good deeds owed to the family, and the Zhang family does not lack the practice of martial arts classics, so they do not want to join the sect in their hearts.
"How have the family's incomes and expenditures been over the years?"
Hearing that Zhang Zhixuan's meaning was not very resolute, Sijin perked up and said: "The output of Lingjing Mountain, Tiantai Peak, Ten Thousand Snake Cave, and Jiuhua Mountain has increased, and the income has increased by more than two thousand spirit stones.
Here in Huangyan Mountain and Spider Mountain, the annual income is above four thousand spirit stones, plus Montenegro has increased a little.
In the past ten years, the family's income has reached 34,000 spirit stones.
However, in recent years, the population of the family has swelled, the number of low-level monks has increased by more than 300, the number of foundation building monks has increased by three, and the annual income of these people has also increased by 3,000 spirit stones, and the annual expenditure has reached 29,000 spirit stones, and the annual balance is about 5,000 spirit stones.
Now in the treasury of the Black Mountain Mansion, there are 180,000 spirit stones stored, which is enough for the fourteenth uncle. ”
Zhang Zhixuan turned his head and said to Sihong, who had just opened up the Purple Mansion, "What do you mean?" ”
Zhang Sihong also thought about this question for a long time, and when he saw Zhang Zhixuan asking, he said decisively: "The fourteenth uncle and the fourteenth aunt have already married Dan, according to the rules of Qingxuanzong, they have to receive 5,000 good deeds every year, plus I have successfully opened up the Purple Mansion, and the annual expenditure on the annual salary is 10,000 more, according to the family's current income, there is a deficit of 5,000 spirit stones every year."
With the increase in the population base, the number of new monks will increase every year, and the pressure on income and expenditure is increasing.
The fourteenth uncle and the fourteenth aunt may wish to join the Qingxuan Sect and give the Black Mountain spiritual vein to the sect, Sijin and others are unwilling to join, and they can draw out the spiritual veins such as Tiantai Peak and Jiuhua Mountain to practice. As for myself, I also followed Uncle Fourteen to join Qingxuanzong. ”
