There are not many people on the street today, and business is not very good. Zhu Youdao was a little bored, but he saw Chen Shu coming over sullenly, sat down next to Zhu Youdao, hung his head and didn't speak, looking like he wanted to cry.

It's the first time Zhu Youdao has seen her like this.

"What's wrong? Who did you fool again, and was taught a lesson by Master Zheng?"

"It's not!" Chen Shu pursed his mouth and cried!

"Is that someone bullying you? tell me who it is, I'll go and break his bones!" Zhu Youdao said with his sleeves rolled.

Chen Shu shook his head: "My father and my mother quarreled, and the quarrel was fierce!"

Zhu Youdao comforted: "What is it for the two to quarrel, they will be reconciled in two days!"

"This time is different!" Chen Shu wiped away his tears, "My father wants to leave the Chen family, my mother doesn't agree, my father never drinks, but this time he drank a lot, he ...... He almost hit my mother!"

Zhu Youdao was very surprised, he knew that although Master Zheng always had a cold face, he was actually a very good person, and he also taught himself very carefully as a temporary disciple. And Master Zheng loves his wife and children very much, he really can't believe that Master Zheng will almost do something to his wife.

"Is something going on? Master Zheng is not that kind of person!"

Chen Shu hesitated for a moment before he said: "My father is from a casual cultivation background, and he is willing to join the Chen family, in addition to liking my mother, but also in order to have a better development on the road." After all, the Chen family is a big family, and they have better cultivation exercises and more cultivation resources. However, his surname is not Chen, and he is not reused in the Chen family. Originally, according to the clan rules of the Chen family, as long as the family contribution is sufficient, it can be exchanged for Zhuji Dan. My father saved enough family contributions ten years ago, but the Chen family kept saying that the family did not have Zhuji Dan for the time being, so let my father wait. But we all know that the descendants of the Chen family have never lacked Zhujidan, the Chen family just doesn't want my father to build a foundation, they don't lack masters, they just want my father to help them make talismans for the rest of their lives!"

Zhu Youdao was silent, this is the reason why he would rather be reduced to a casual cultivator and come out to set up a stall than join Yipinge.

It's not just Yipinge, it's not just the Chen family, it's like this for any force. They will only look at their own interests, and will only use outsiders as a tool to make money.

Tsukidan is a very precious strategic resource, and they will only be used on core members, and will not be used to improve the cultivation of outsiders, because the higher the cultivation, the greater the ambition, and the more difficult it is to control.

If Chen Shu's spiritual roots are good enough, and he is willing to obey the family's arrangements in the future, and also recruit a son-in-law to come to the door, she still has a little possibility of obtaining Zhuji Dan, and her children are also possible, because they are all surnamed Chen! But Chen Shu's father and future husband are very difficult, in the eyes of the Chen family, they are all outsiders, and they can only create benefits for the family, but cannot obtain core resources.

Master Zheng has made enough contributions, but he can't get the return he wants, so it's no wonder that he wants to leave the Chen family.

But his wife and daughter are all surnamed Chen, and they don't just leave if they want to.

After all, after leaving the Chen family, he is a loose cultivator, and without the big tree of the Chen family, his wife and daughter will have to drift with him and endure hardships, and life may not be as good as now.

More importantly, staying in the Chen family and continuing to work for the Chen family, Chen Shu still has hope of building a foundation in the future, but after becoming a casual cultivator, the hope of building a foundation is even more invisible.

As for joining other forces, it is better to stay in the Chen family, at least in the Chen family, he is a son-in-law, which can be regarded as a side branch.

In terms of quantity, the thing that the monks in the world crave the most, in addition to the spirit stone, is probably the Tsukidan.

Most of the monks in the world were blocked from the avenue, and the first obstacle they faced was to build a foundation.

Even in the ancient times when the strong were like clouds, building a foundation was also a big hurdle, and building a foundation was a transformation from a mortal body to an extraordinary one, no matter what kind of exercises were practiced, how thick the foundation was, the monk's body was not enough to provide the consumption to support the foundation building. If you forcibly build a foundation without using Tsukidan, if you fail, you may die on the spot, and the remaining 20% will become invalids. Even if you succeed by chance, it will take decades to make up for the overdraft of your body, and during this period, you can't improve your cultivation, let alone do it casually. This is still a good result, but a little luck will cause serious damage to the body, which will affect the future path and cause irreparable defects for life.

Therefore, even peerless geniuses such as Heavenly Spirit Root and Alien Spirit Root would dare to forcibly build a foundation without using the Tsukidan.

It is precisely because of this that Tsukidan is so precious, and this is a hurdle that no sect, family, or casual cultivator can get around!

The reason why Zhuji Dan is so precious is that the growth cycle of the main materials for refining Zhuji Dan is too long, and the refining is also very difficult.

Depending on the main material, there are several formulas for Tsukidan. However, the main refining material of each formula is more than three hundred years old spirit grass, and there are dozens of auxiliary materials. Although Zhuji Dan is a second-order elixir, the difficulty of refining is still above many third-order pills, and the materials are precious, only experienced alchemists above the third order dare to try to refine it, therefore, only large and medium-sized forces have the ability to cultivate alchemists who can refine Zhuji Dan.

Thousands of years ago, a senior Dan master researched the use of the inner pill of the third-order demon beast as the main material to refine the Zhuji Dan, so that the monk had one more way to obtain the Zhuji Dan, but the third-order demon beasts are not everywhere, and it is even more difficult to deal with, so the Zhuji Dan is still a hot commodity in the cultivation realm.

Another reason for the scarcity of Tsukidan is that the major forces monopolize the source of Tsukidan and strictly control the flow to the market.

After all, Tsukidan is the foundation for the prosperity of any force, and if there is too much outflow of Tsukidan, it may threaten its own position. It is precisely because of this that the Chen family's Zhuji Dan is only used on the lineage, and even a son-in-law like Master Zheng, who is good at making talismans, cannot be obtained. is afraid that the side power of the family will be great and threaten the dominance of the family.

For various reasons, it has caused a situation where Zhuji Dan can't buy spirit stones, which is really priceless!

Of course, in addition to Zhuji Dan, there are also some heaven and earth spiritual objects that can help build the foundation. For example, some of the spiritual fruits generated by heaven and earth are not inferior to Zhuji Dan, and the medicinal effect is milder, but such heaven and earth spiritual objects are even rarer than Zhuji Dan;

Zhu Youdao cultivated to practice qi at the second level, and he was still far away from building the foundation, so he didn't have to think about the matter of building the foundation for the time being.

In his previous life, he was a prodigal son in love, and he was very good at coaxing women, let alone coaxing little girls?

Chen Shu accompanied Zhu Youdao to set up a stall and did not leave until the evening.

Zhu Youdao accepted the business, returned home, and practiced Tongzigong without moving.

An hour later, Zhu Youdao completed his cultivation. Suddenly felt that the body seemed to be a little different, the pure yang orb in the dantian shook, dripping and spinning, and then sprayed out a circle of white light, the whole body entered a warm state, as if bathed in a hot spring, a kind of warmth penetrating the bone marrow swept the whole body.

After persisting in cultivation for more than a year, there has never been a single break, and the Pure Yang Tongzi Gong has finally advanced to the second level.
