Chapter 445: Continuation of the Family Tree
Listening to Qingchan's words, Zhang Zhixuan was speechless.
The ten foundation building monks in the family can only be regarded as average in terms of natural nature.
The main reason why they were able to build a successful foundation was that they had the three ancestors of the Zhang family as backers. Compared with the foundation building period monks who Qingxuanzong killed from the competition of thousands of troops, no matter in terms of qualifications or perseverance, the dozen or so foundation building monks in the family are very ordinary.
Although Zhang Sihong's cultivation is the highest, he can only be regarded as ordinary in terms of talent, and he does not show much eloquence, and he is not as good as Liu Zixuan, who Zhang Zhixuan thinks is mediocre.
If the temperament is mediocre, if the cultivation is high on the path, it can maintain a family, but it is difficult for the monks of the next generation of the Zhang family to break through to the realm of the Purple Mansion.
If the three Purple Mansions were gone, they wouldn't be able to hold Montenegro at all.
Fortunately, the three Purple Mansion Ancestors are still relatively young, and they still have more than 300 years of life, and the road is relatively smooth, so they have more time to wait for the successor to appear.
Zhang Zhixuan had just returned from Su Heng's funeral, and Zhang Yuanzheng and Zhang Guangliang's uncles and nephews came to ask to see him, along with Zhang Zerui and Zhang Shengdai.
Zhang Shengdai is the descendant of the fourth brother Zhang Zhi'an, Zhang Zhi'an has raised horses for the family for a lifetime, and his children and grandchildren are ordinary mortals. The fourth brother has been dead for more than 40 years, and when he was alive, Zhang Shengdai had not yet detected the spiritual root, and according to the family rules, he could not inherit the good deeds and inheritance he left behind.
However, Zhang Shengdai's ancestors have a monk's inheritance, which is much easier than a self-made monk, and the time between the death of the fourth brother Zhang Zhi'an and the time of his cultivation is very short, and the elders in the family take care of him a lot.
The most important factor was that he was also relatively close to the next generation of family cultivators, and he actually found a wild fourth-order elixir, which was enough to exchange half of the good deeds of Tsukidan at the age of forty.
He is a Sanlinggen cultivator, and he has been cultivating to the ninth level of Qi cultivation for four years, and when he heard that Zhang Guangliang came to Montenegro to exchange for Zhuji Dan, he was afraid that the family inventory of Zhuji Dan would be exchanged, so he hurriedly came to Montenegro to compete for Zhuji Dan.
Because they happened to meet Zhang Zerui to go to Montenegro, they were both practicing in Lingjing Mountain, and they were also very familiar with each other, so they partnered with Zhang Zerui, borrowed the poisonous dragon boat from Tiantai Peak, and almost came to Montenegro with Zhang Yuanzheng's uncle and nephew.
Zhang Zhixuan recruited them into the cave together, and said to Zhang Zerui straight to the point: "Zerui came, but because there is something I don't know about the exercises?" ”
"Returning to the ancestors, it's not because of this, it's mainly because the family genealogy is no longer enough. Some time ago, Zhang Maolin's fourth son detected the spiritual root, but the family tree was not enough, so I could only hurry to Montenegro to find the ancestor to continue the family tree and continue the inheritance. ”
The Zhang family is sorted by the Taichu Le Meng, Zhi Si Tongyuan, Guangsheng Zemao, these twelve characters are set by Zhang Tairen, the ancestor of the mountain, and the Zhang family has been inherited for five hundred years by the age of Zhang Tairen's cultivation, even if he occupies the Tiantai Peak time, the Zhang family has also gone through four hundred years.
In four hundred years, these twelve characters have all been used up.
Zhang Zhixuan pondered for a moment, and did not discuss with Qingchan Hanyan, and said directly: "Since Tairen Ancestor has set the twelve generations of characters, it is not good for me to cross him, and I also set the twelve generations of characters, with Yuan Shao Xianlong, Xingye heirloom, and Yongzhen Wannian to continue the family tree." ”
Zhang Zerui said: "Ancestor, do you want to continue for a few more generations at a time, now there are many monks in the family, especially the monks who have no hope of the path, they will enter the mortal world to marry wives and concubines on a large scale, and the twelve generations are only afraid that they can only use it for two hundred years." ”
Zhang Zhixuan said indifferently: "You can continue it when you run out, this kind of thing is not a big deal." Then he turned his head and asked, "You came to Montenegro to exchange for Tsukidan?" ”
Zhang Guangliang and Zhang Shengdai replied at the same time: "Yes", "Yes"
"Can you prepare for good deeds?"
Zhang Shengdai replied, "Ready." ”
Zhang Guangliang replied: "I still have to borrow from the third uncle." ”
"In that case, Guangliang, your uncle and nephew will first go to Elder Guangyang and ask him to do a notarization to transfer the good deeds, and then come to exchange them for Tsukidan. As for Sheng Dai, bring your identity token. ”
Zhang Shengdai respectfully handed his identity token to Zhang Zhixuan, Zhang Zhixuan picked it up and took a look, and found that the token had more than 5,000 merits.
Zhang Zhixuan used mana to wipe Zhang Shengdai's identity token, deducted five thousand good deeds, and then took out a Zhuji Dan from the cave and handed it to Zhang Shengdai.
After getting the Zhuji Dan, Zhang Shengdai gave a respectful salute and spent sixty good deeds to rent a good cave mansion, preparing to break through the foundation building realm in the Black Mountain retreat.
After everyone dispersed, Zhang Zhixuan said to Zhang Zerui thoughtfully: "Are there many monks in the next generation of the family who have reached the ninth level of qi cultivation? ”
"The old ancestor guessed well, in addition to Sheng Dai and Guangliang, there are three ninth-level Qi cultivation cultivators before the age of sixty, and the base of the next generation of monks is even more, it is estimated that there are seven or eight people who can cultivate to the ninth-level realm of qi cultivation before the age of sixty. When they grow up, the rules for our exchange of Tsukidan will have to change. After all, although some chalcedony Jinzhi is planted at home, it will take thousands of years to mature, and without stable Jinzhi, we will definitely not be able to provide a steady stream of Tsukidan. ”
Since becoming a Purple Mansion monk, the time spent in contact with the low-level monks of the family has gradually decreased, especially after moving to Montenegro, and he doesn't know the young monk Zhang Zhixuan at all.
After listening to Zhang Zerui's words, Zhang Zhixuan couldn't help but nod and said: "Yes, some changes should be made, after Sheng Dai and Guangliang exchange for Zhuji Dan, the remaining Zhuji Dan in the family treasury can only be one pill." If they can't open the furnace for a short period of time, the outstanding monks in the family can only let them join the sect for development. ”
sent Zhang Zerui away, and the next day Zhang Guangliang and Zhang Yuanzheng also completed the procedures for borrowing good deeds, and successfully exchanged Zhuji Dan from Zhang Zhixuan. Like Zhang Shengdai, Zhang Guangliang also rented a cave mansion in Montenegro to break through the foundation building realm.
Time flies very quickly, and most of the half year has passed in the blink of an eye.
The two who broke through the foundation building period in retreat also quickly had results, and the younger Zhang Shengdai, although he had an opportunity in his early years, exchanged for Zhuji Dan in his forties. It's a pity that because of bad luck, he didn't succeed in breaking through the foundation building realm and became the second Qi Cultivation Great Perfection monk in his family.
However, because he discovered a wild fourth-order elixir a few years ago and obtained three thousand family merits, Zhang Shengdai's family background is very solid, and the debt owed by Zhuji Dan is only five thousand, plus he is still relatively young, and the debt owed should be repaid before the age of 100.
Zhang Shengdai's failure to build the foundation made Zhang Yuanzheng suddenly worried in his heart, although the Zhang family has advanced more than ten foundation building monks, but also has two experience of foundation building failure.
Once Zhang Yuanzheng fails to build the foundation, he is afraid that it will be difficult to repay the family debts until he dies, and he will drag down his children and grandchildren, just like Zhang Siming in the family.
Zhang Shengdai failed to build the foundation, and Zhang Guangliang soon had good news from there.
Although Zhang Guangliang was more difficult to build the foundation than Zhang Shengdai, he survived the three hurdles and three difficulties without danger, successfully broke through the bottleneck, and advanced to the realm of the foundation building period.
