The two talked on the high platform for a long time, the sun had risen, the fog gradually dispersed, and the clouds were sparkling and beautiful.

"It's a beautiful view. Shen Yun was full of praise.

Shi Jin smiled and said, "If Brother Shen is interested, when there is no fog another day, come and watch the sunrise again, it will be more pleasing to the eye at that time." ”

"Oh, I'm going to have to come and see it when I have a chance. Shen Yun nodded with a chuckle, climbing high and looking into the distance, it was refreshing and pleasant, and his mind was open and comfortable.

"It is said that when you reach the Linglan Realm, you can fly in the air, and the scenery on the ground must have another flavor at that time. Shi Jin's eyes narrowed slightly, full of longing for the future.

"Well, you must work hard to cultivate. Shen Yun also looked yearning, but his cultivation progress was too slow, so he cautiously tentatively said, "Brother Shi, I don't know anything about alchemy or anything, I don't know if this kind of classic book can be borrowed from me to see?"

"It should be no problem, I'll talk to my sister in a while, and copy the alchemy and formation classics to you. Shi Jin thought about it and nodded in agreement.

"That would be great. Shen Yun was overjoyed and thanked him busily.

"Brother Shen doesn't have to be polite, it's nothing. Shi Jin didn't care about it.

The two watched for a while, and then walked down the hill laughing all the way.

The main hall of the Shijia family faces south, the door is open, and the sunlight is projected through the doors and windows, reflecting the hall very brightly.

The lobby was empty, and at this moment, two figures appeared in front of the door.

"Brother Shen, you sit down first, and I'll go find my sister. As soon as he entered the door, Shi Jin ran to the back hall.

Shen Yun answered, walked to the previous position and sat down, and after a while, two maids came out of the inner hall, served fresh tea and snacks, and stood aside.

Shen Yun thought about the purpose of this trip and sighed faintly.

I grabbed a piece of lotus cake and took a bite, and a fragrance of lotus leaves lingered, which was sweet and delicious.

Turning his gaze to the door, in the circular flower bed, two tall ancient acacia trees blocked a shade, and the summer cicadas chirped endlessly.

After a while, there was a sound of footsteps from behind, and when he turned his head, he saw Shi Qiulan's sister and brother coming.

"Brother Shen, this is the book you want. Shi Jin stepped forward quickly and handed out the two jade slips.

"Ah, thank you so much!" Shen Yun's eyes lit up, he took it with great joy, and hurriedly got up to thank Shi Qiulan.

"It's not a valuable item, Brother Shen doesn't have to be polite. Shi Qiulan chuckled.

The three of them sat down and gossiped.

Shen Yun saw that Shi Qiulan's sister and brother were hospitable, and remembered another purpose of this trip, so he directly asked what famous mountains and rivers there are in Daning Country, and the forces of cultivating immortals.

Shi Qiulan didn't hide her selfishness, and waved away the two maids first, and then she told the story.

The pattern of cultivating immortals in the entire Daning Kingdom is generally divided into the sect of cultivating immortals and the family of cultivating immortals.

However, most of the Immortal Cultivation Sects withered and gradually broke off their inheritance, and now only a few are still alive, and even the most powerful ones have only one or two Linglan Realm cultivators, supporting the façade.

At the beginning of the founding of the country, it is said that there were many immortal cultivation families in the whole country, and these families were large and small, but with the passage of time, most of the families were also annihilated in the long river of history.

Shen Yun nodded again and again, but his brows furrowed slightly, it seemed that there was not much choice.

Shi Jin obviously hadn't heard these things either, holding his chin and listening quietly.

Seeing Shen Yun's expression, Shi Qiulan thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "I have heard the ancestor mention that it is said that there are several powerful sects in the regions outside the Daning Kingdom. ”

Shen Yun sighed secretly in his heart, could it be that he really wanted to go to other countries to find the Immortal Cultivation Sect?

"Daning Kingdom also has a strong power of cultivating immortals, but it is not a sect, but a family. Shi Qiulan's words changed sharply, and she once again talked about the domestic immortal cultivation forces.

This largest family is the Xiong family, and the Xiong family is also the immortal cultivator force behind the royal family.

Although the emperor has supreme authority, he is actually only the contemporary head of the Xiong family, and is only responsible for managing the secular mortals of the Daning Kingdom.

In order to avoid domestic turmoil, the appointment and dismissal of the emperor, the Xiong family tried to adopt a secular way of hereditary inheritance.

But the one who really holds the supreme power of Daning is actually the patriarch of the Xiong family, and the patriarch of the Xiong family has always had the right to dismiss and appoint the emperor.

Although the Junshan Xiong family and the Liangdu royal family do not seem to have much management and connection, in fact, as long as the status of the Xiong family's first immortal cultivator family is not guaranteed, then they will face a change of dynasty in the secular world.

Therefore, the royal family will also try its best to collect all kinds of spirit plants, spirit stones and other things to help the monks in the family improve their strength, because that is the fundamental.

Shi Qiulan's eyes suddenly flashed, and her face was envious: "The Xiong family is also the only family in the current Daning Kingdom that has a Brahma Realm immortal cultivator, in fact, even if there is no Brahma Realm cultivator, the Xiong family's nearly ten Linglan Realm immortal cultivators will ensure that they are firmly on the throne of the first family in the Daning Kingdom." ”

"Brahma Realm!" Shen Yun's pupils shrank sharply, and he was inexplicably amazed, this was the first time he had heard that there really was a Brahma Realm monk.

"Powerful......" Shi Jin sighed lightly, and it was also difficult to hide his envy.

"According to the ancient records of the clan, about three hundred years ago, an ancestor of the Linglan Realm of the Xiong family broke through in one fell swoop and reached the Brahma Realm. Shi Qiulan nodded slightly, with a look of envy, "It is said that the whole country was jubilant at that time, and it was more than a month. ”

"Still alive?" Shi Jin was dumbfounded, and asked what Shen Yun wanted to ask.

"Of course. Shi Qiulan glanced at her brother.

The Brahma realm monks have lived for more than 500 years, and the ancestor of the Xiong family is not only alive, but can even live a few hundred years in good health and happiness.

"Other families, haven't there been Brahma realm cultivators?" Shen Yunqi said.

"I haven't seen any records, I'm afraid there aren't. Shi Qiulan shook her head slightly, thought for a while and continued, "Legend has it that as long as the qualifications are acceptable and there are enough elixirs, sooner or later you will be able to reach the Linglan realm. ”

"But the Brahma realm is different. The breakthrough of the Brahma realm is not related to qualifications and elixirs, it is said that it can only be achieved after opening the body, and it can be broken through in ten days if it can be opened, and if it can't, it will be trapped in the Linglan realm for a lifetime. ”

"Enlightenment?" Shen Yun and Shi Jin looked at each other and asked in unison.

"Don't ask me, I don't know what enlightenment is, I just know that I need to understand heaven and earth. Shi Qiulan stretched out her hand and swept the sideburns next to her ear, and shook her head with a wry smile, "I don't know what it means to comprehend heaven and earth......

Although there was no answer, the Brahma Realm was too far away, and even the Linglan Realm was still far away, so I didn't care.

"The Xiong family is really lucky, five years ago, the Xiong family produced another material that can be made, which is said to be the qualification of the high-grade spiritual root. Shi Qiulan looked envious and said with emotion, "That girl called Xiong Li'er, it is rumored that it only took a few months for her to cultivate in the Spirit Movement Realm to the Spirit Silence Realm. ”

"Break through from the Spirit Realm to the Spirit Silence Realm in a few months......" Shen Yun's face was bitter, and he looked at Shi Jin with a wry smile, full of envy. At the same time, he thought that in five years, with Xiong Li'er's qualifications, I am afraid that his cultivation will surpass that of himself and others.

I heard Shi Qiulan's voice faintly: "It is rumored that this girl named Xiong Li'er has a bleak background, her parents died when she was a child, she was exiled, and she was adopted, and the Xiong family finally got the news five years ago and found it." ”

Five years ago, it happened to be the year when Ling'er's sister disappeared, Shen Yun sighed in his heart, and Ling'er's delicate and cute little face appeared in his mind.

The Xiong family got Xiong Li'er, the whole world celebrated, the emperor ordered an amnesty to the world, the whole country celebrated, and it was celebrated for ten whole days, but mortals didn't know why the emperor was so happy, only the immortal family knew the real reason.

Although the high-grade qualifications may not be able to step into the Brahma realm, the time taken by a monk with good qualifications to enter the fourth layer of the Linglan realm is undoubtedly much shorter than that of a mediocre person, unlike a monk with ordinary qualifications and insufficient spiritual elixir, who cannot even reach the fourth layer of the Linglan realm in his life, let alone the Brahma realm.

The truth is even worse, just like Shi Wantong, the ancestor of the Shi family, is still stuck in the second layer of the Linglan Realm, and it is very likely that his longevity will be exhausted, and he may not be able to reach the third layer of the Linglan Realm.

And Xiong Li'er has good qualifications, and the family focuses on training, so that it doesn't even take a hundred years to reach the peak of the Linglan Realm.

In this way, there is enough time, plus the guidance of the existing Brahma realm monks of the Xiong family, as long as her comprehension is not too bad, I am afraid that in a few years, the Xiong family will have a new Brahma realm monk.

Of course, it is also a good thing that the Xiong family is strong, so that at least the whole country will be safe and secure without war, whether it is for mortals or immortal cultivators, peace is the most important thing, and war means that countless people will die.

The status of the Xiong family is high and there are no objections.

Although the entire country belongs to the Xiong family, the Daning country is too big, and the so-called whip is beyond the reach, plus other immortal cultivation families have more or less made meritorious contributions at the beginning of the founding of the country.

Therefore, the Xiong family acquiesced to other families and occupied a sphere of influence to search for spiritual objects, as long as these families handed over a certain amount of spiritual objects to the Xiong family every year, the Xiong family would not interfere too much with these families.

The Xiong family's sphere of influence is not near Liangdu, but far away on the northwest border of Daning Kingdom, where Junshan faintly guards the entire Daning Kingdom.

Shi Qiulan's mouth was dry, she picked up the teacup and drank a few sips.

Shi Jin was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

It was the first time that Shen Yun had heard of the secrets of the immortal cultivation forces, and his mind was inhaled, and his thoughts were tumbling.

Shi Qiulan put down the cup, her beautiful eyes flowed, she glanced at the two of them, suddenly showed a trace of embarrassment, and turned to Shen Yun and said, "Brother Shen, I really don't hide it, the little girl also has something to ask for." ”

"Oh, Miss Shi, please don't hesitate to say anything. Shen Yun's eyes were suspicious, thinking that he had just won someone's favor, so he smiled sincerely, "As long as I can help, I will definitely do my best." ”

Shi Qiulan smiled when she heard this, and said solemnly: "On behalf of the Shi family, I hope to hire Brother Shen to serve as my Shi family's worship." ”
