After the big competition, the top 10 people were rewarded by the family

The first place was Ling Zong, who was in the Dingzi generation, and he obtained a top-grade magic weapon with earth attributes, and the second place, Ling Youxian, obtained a pill of marrow cleansing, and then went back to the seventh place, Ling Yourong, who obtained a pill of Peiyuan Pill.

Pei Yuan Dan is a second-order mid-grade pill, and after taking it by Qi cultivators, it has the effect of consolidating the foundation of Pei Yuan, and it is also a little helpful for foundation building monks.

In this way, when he reached the tenth place, he only obtained a second-order low-grade Fire Rain Talisman.

Although Ling Youdao was eliminated in the fourth round, through this family competition, he finally understood what position his strength was among his peers.

Before taking the Cleansing Pill, his strength was ranked in the top 30 among the generations, and this was the result of his perseverance and years of diligent cultivation.

As the saying goes, rather than the head of a chicken, not the tail of a phoenix!

Not to mention having the strength of Ling Youxian and Ling Yourong, as long as there is the strength of Ling Youjun and Ling Wei, Ling Youdao will never hide his cultivation, but will try his best to show his talent in front of the family elders.

Because only then could he get more cultivation resources, thus making his path of cultivating immortals easier.

But he ranked more than thirty among his peers, even if he took the Pulp Cleansing Pill and successfully broke through to the seventh layer of Qi training, he was also ranked in the dozens.

No matter how he showed his talent, there were still many better people in front of him, and his spiritual root was not good, so it was difficult to get more cultivation resources, but he needed to take on some family tasks corresponding to his own strength.

Even if his grandfather is Elder Zhuji, it is useless, because most of the people who can rank in front of him have Elder Zhuji as the backstage.

Showing talent also has some downsides.

He is Ling Yuansheng's beloved grandson, so it is naturally easy to attract the attention of outsiders.

Ling Youdao is not a supreme genius, there is no need for the family to hide them, and from the perspective of family interests, the children of cultivators like them will be pushed in front of people, showing the strength of the new generation of the Ling clan to the immortal cultivation world, it will be dangerous for him.

To be honest, if other families wanted to find out that Ling Youdao was a seventh-level Qi cultivator through his idea of beating Ling Yuansheng, then the monk sent to arrest him might be an eighth-level Qi training, or even a ninth-level Qi training.

And if the result of the inquiry is that he only has the cultivation of the sixth layer of Qi training, with the gap between the middle stage of Qi training and the late stage of Qi training, the person sent to arrest him is estimated to be the seventh or eighth level of Qi training, and with his true strength, it will be easy to escape, and even kill the opponent.

If he hadn't wanted to make Ling Yuansheng happy, he would have suppressed his cultivation at the fifth layer of Qi cultivation now, and then he would be even safer.

To sum up, showing his strength will not do much good, but will put him in danger.

As for why he was reluctant to tell his family about his true cultivation, perhaps it was because his soul came from the earth, and he had been alien to this world since he was a baby, and his heart was full of strangeness and a sense of crisis.

He can be good to the people around him, but he doesn't fully trust the people around him.

......

Two days later, in the hall in the middle of Qingcang Mountain on Cangli Island, the owners of the seven-room houses of the Cangli Ling clan gathered.

The owner of the long house Ling Yuanxiang, the owner of the second room Ling Jieran, the owner of the third room Ling Jiexin, the owner of the fourth room Ling Yuanxing, the owner of the fifth room Ling Yuanqi, the owner of the sixth room Ling Yuancheng, and the owner of the seventh room Ling Yuansheng.

Originally, the owner of the long house was Ling Jiesheng, and Ling Yuanxiang took over after he sat down.

The seven of them are not only the owners of the seventh house, but also the seven powerful elders of the Cangli Ling clan, who together form the elder council of the Cangli Ling clan and exercise the power of the patriarch of the Cangli Ling clan.

The rest of the elders are not members of the Council of Elders, they can only be regarded as honorary elders, and they cannot participate in the decision-making of major matters of the Cangli Ling Clan.

Soon after Ling Jiesheng sat down, Ling Jiexin, who was far away on Yellow Crab Island, got the news.

Immediately, Ling Jiexin arranged for Ling Yuanqing and Ling Dingtian to take over the Yellow Crab Island for him, and he himself immediately returned to Cangli Island.

For his arrangement, the remaining six homeowners of the Cangli Ling clan all acquiesced.

Because Ling Jiexin was also one of the members of the Council of Elders, at this critical time, the remaining six elders had no reason to prevent him from returning to Cangli Island.

In the past two days, several big dramas have been staged in Qingcang Mountain, and the people in the long room and the third room on Cangli Island have been dispatched together to woo, persuade, and lure, and the people in the other five rooms.

The purpose of the two rooms is to bring the other five rooms into their camp and prepare for the future elders' meetings.

"Sixth brother is gone, today, the owners of our seventh room get together to discuss what my Cangli Ling clan should do next, and our elders will have a unified opinion.

If we can't even reach a consensus on our opinions, and each has its own opinions, how can I lead the more than 800 Qi cultivators of the Cangli Ling Clan to convince the juniors?"

Hearing this, the five foundation building monks of the Yuanzi generation said in unison: "What the eighth uncle said is very true. ”

Ling Jieran nodded with satisfaction, "The more times like this, we must be united internally, otherwise we will let the Fufeng Qian clan take advantage of it." ”

Ling Yuansheng said: "Although the eighth uncle, ninth uncle, and sixth uncle are gone, and I have lost a great battle power of the Cangli Ling clan, I still can't shake the foundation of my Cangli Ling clan.

As long as we organize properly, fulfill our responsibilities, and unite with the outside world, Fufeng Qian can't find a breakthrough, and naturally won't come to us for trouble. ”

Ling Jieran nodded and said, "Fate is the essence of the story." ”

Immediately, he looked at everyone again and said, "Then I will talk about the arrangement, if there is any disagreement, just say it, and we will discuss it again, the goal is one, our elders' council must have a unified consensus." ”

"Slow!"

Ling Jiexin said suddenly.

Ling Jieran closed his eyes slightly as if he had expected it.

"Ninth brother, what is your opinion?"

"I have no opinion on what Yuansheng just said. ”

Ling Jieran asked knowingly, "Oh, then what are you going to say?"

Ling Jiexin smiled and continued, "I'm going to have a patriarch in the Ling clan. ”

Ling Jieran's eyelids jumped, and the other five elders were also shocked.

"Ninth brother, do you know what you're talking about?"

"Of course I know what I'm talking about. ”

Hearing this, Ling Yuanxiang flicked his sleeves and did not give Ling Jiexin face at all.

"Hmph, since the beginning of the Taiyi Ling Clan, the owners of all parties have formed an elder council to jointly decide to manage the family, but the Ninth Uncle wants to establish a patriarch, which has not been seen for more than 500 years, is it worthy of the ancestors of my Cangli Ling Clan?"

Ling Jiexin said with a smile: "Second nephew, how do you know that the ancestors of the past generations did not want to establish a patriarch? Maybe they also want to establish a patriarch, and I, Ling Jiexin, want to realize their ideals." ”

"Uncle Jiu, don't go to the ancestors of the past dynasties, you proposed to establish a patriarch at this time, but you just want to be a patriarch. ”

Ling Jiexin's eyes were like torches, and he said proudly: "Yes, I, Ling Jiexin, just want to be the first patriarch." ”
