Chapter 200 The Return of Nineteenth Uncle
Among the ten elders in the family who are at the ninth level of Qi training, Uncle Nineteen has the best spiritual roots. He has been practicing to the ninth level of Qi training for the longest time and has the most experience.
He had cultivated to the ninth level of Qi training when he was young. He wasted decades in the Zhang family and missed the best age for foundation building.
Almost all of his youth was spent on Tiantai Peak.
The elders of their generation shared the joys and sorrows with the clan leader along the way, supporting each other in this dilapidated mountain gate. It wasn’t until Zhang Zhixuan was born and successfully built the foundation that the family’s status quo gradually changed and it became more and more prosperous.
Because of this experience, he is also the most capable and prestigious among the monks in his family’s Qi training period.
It had been almost ten years since he last went to Southern Wilderness Black Mountain to take charge of the overall situation of Baibao Pavilion.
Ten years ago, the other elders in the family had not been able to experience it, and Zhang Zhixuan was not at ease letting them go to the Southern Wilderness.
The family really didn’t have the right manpower, so he had no choice but to leave his beloved wife and young son behind and go to Montenegro to support the Baibao Pavilion industry.
Ten years have passed, and Baibao Pavilion’s industry has stabilized. With the Zhang family of Taicheng County as its backer, this century-old family has finally regained its former momentum.
Because the store also has many Taicheng County specialties, its annual performance has exceeded that of when Wang Songhe was in charge.
Now that the situation is improving, Uncle Nineteen also wants to return to Lushan Mountain Gate.
Ten years have passed, and the young children have grown up.
After being away from home for ten years, he has never seen his wife, children, and children, and can only communicate with a few letters every year through the trade caravan.
A few years ago, he sent a letter from Montenegro asking Zhang Zhixuan to choose a candidate to succeed him, but at that time, the family was very short of manpower and could not find a suitable person.
After Zhang Siyang, Zhang Sipeng, and Zhang Zhiren advanced to the ninth level of Qi training and became family elders, the family’s lack of backbones improved slightly, and Zhang Zhixuan had a suitable candidate to replace him.
Zhang Siyang ranks sixth among the monks of the Si generation, and is three years older than Zhang Zhixuan. He is now approaching the sixtieth limit of the foundation building level.
It had just been a year since he had reached the ninth level of Qi training, and it would be impossible for him to reach the peak of Qi training before he was sixty years old.
Unlike Uncle Nineteen, who had extraordinary qualifications back then, his chances of building a foundation were already very small. Even if the family gives him a foundation-building pill, his chance of building a foundation is less than 10%.
With this probability, unless you are the son of the Jin Dan Patriarch, you have a slight chance of successfully building the foundation.
Even if he was in the Qingxuan Sect and was the direct descendant of the Zifu monks, the sect would not invest resources in preparing the foundation-building pills for the ninth-level Qi-training monks with such poor qualifications.
One Foundation Establishment Pill costs 10,000 spirit stones, which is a large amount of money for the Zifu monks.
Using 10,000 spirit stones will give you less than a 10% chance of winning. Even if you are Liang Taixu’s biological son, you don’t have the financial resources to waste multiple Foundation Building Pills to successfully build a foundation.
It can be said that Zhang Siyang’s life is hopeless.
Among the ten monks of the Zhang family who are at the ninth level of Qi training, the only ones who have hope of passing the first level of foundation building are Zhang Sipeng and Zhang Zhixing.
Among the next generation of monks, there are only Zhang Sidao and Zhang Sihong, and what determines their fate is a small foundation-building pill.
Among these four people, Zhang Sidao has gone to Qingxuan Sect. He is only in his thirties now, and his cultivation has reached the eighth level of Qi refining. With the support of his family outside, and Han Yan and Chen Hongyuan in the sect, he has obtained the Foundation Establishment Dan has the highest probability, and the chance of foundation building should be more than 30%.
Zhang Sihong is the youngest, but has the best spiritual roots. He is a monk with two spiritual roots that conflict with water and fire. His cultivation speed is not as fast as that of his nineteenth uncle Zhang Mengling. However, since having the Xuanyin Talisman Magical Artifact, he has been able to suppress the conflict between the two spiritual roots of water and fire. In terms of cultivation, he is still faster than the three spiritual root monks. He is now only twenty-one years old and has reached the sixth level of Qi training.
Nowadays, the family has no shortage of resources, and the conditions are much better than a few decades ago. It is estimated that one can reach the ninth level of Qi training before the age of thirty-five.
Both Zhang Sipeng and Zhang Zhiren are already over forty, and are not far away from the decline of Qi and blood at sixty. If they can obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill before the age of sixty, they should be more than 30% sure of foundation establishment. .
Except for the three foundation-building monks in the family, even the nineteenth uncle Zhang Mengling did not know the internal details at all. .
On the surface, Qingchan is also a monk who takes the Foundation Establishment Pill to build his foundation. This Foundation Establishment Pill can only be hidden in the dark, and it is difficult to expose it to the public.
As for the other Foundation Building Pill hidden in the Nine Palaces Box, the Zhang family promised to leave it to the descendants of the Wang family. Without Wang Luyuan’s cooperation, it would be impossible to take it out from the Nine Palaces Box.
In the eyes of outsiders, Zhang Zhixuan obtained two foundation-building pills from Montenegro, one of which was given to his Taoist companion Qingchan, and the other is still kept at home. There is currently no suitable candidate to take the pill.
In the opinion of the family elders, if this Foundation Building Pill is to be left to the descendants of the Wang family, they cannot count on it at all. The two elders who hoped to break through the foundation building level did not know the internal details at all. If they wanted to build a foundation, they could only choose to take risks and break through the foundation building level like Zhang Zhixuan.
It is easy to die while taking risks. Zhang Mengqin, the eighteenth aunt, died on the way to the pass. Judging from the characters of Zhang Sipeng and Zhang Zhixing, they should not dare to take this step.
In the past generations of Zhang family’s ninth-level qi-training monks, only a few warriors dared to choose this path. Except for Qingchan Tianlinggen, including Zhang Zhixuan, there were only seven of them in hundreds of years, and he was the only one who succeeded.
The Zhang family has developed rapidly in recent years. In the forty years since Zhang Zhixuan came down from the mountain, the family has three third-level spiritual veins.
Every third-level spiritual building needs a foundation-building monk to be in charge, otherwise it will be unstable.
The Zhang family’s current spiritual vein is Jiuhua Mountain. Since there are no foundation-building monks in charge, Zhang Zhixuan dare not invest resources in Jiuhua Mountain. He can only barely use the 20 acres of spiritual fields on the mountain to support some naturalized casual cultivators and vassals. The monks in the family can use them to alleviate the problem of insufficient monks in the family.
Although the Zhang family now has three foundation-building monks, which has undergone tremendous changes compared to decades ago, the family business is getting bigger and bigger now, and three foundation-building monks are simply not enough.
If someone can build the foundation, it can relieve Zhang Zhixuan’s huge burden.
But who should use this Foundation Establishment Pill has been a headache for Zhang Zhixuan and the others over the years.
The two elders who are suitable for taking the Foundation Establishment Pill have no great merits to the family, and they simply cannot gather enough family merit to exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill.
No matter who it is given to, if it cannot be done fairly and justly, it will cause dissatisfaction among the tribesmen.
Moreover, after using this Foundation Establishment Pill, you still have to go through the test of King Lu Yuan to convince him to help conceal the news to avoid suspicion from others. Only by convincing Wang Luyuan could the Foundation Establishment Pill in Qingchan’s hand be revealed on stage.
After Wang Zixuan’s death, there were only three monks left in the Wang family. These three were all pseudo-spiritual monks with very low cultivation levels. They had been practicing at Tiantai Peak, the Zhang family’s headquarters, over the years. Except for Wang Luyuan, who still practices Xin Qi, the remaining two monks from the Wang family have married many Zhang family wives and concubines in Tiantai Peak over the years, and they are dedicated to enjoying happiness.
They are all Wulinggen monks. They have lived a very comfortable life in Lushan these years. They are far less fearful than they were in Black Mountain. No matter who uses the Foundation Establishment Pill, it is not their turn anyway, and they do not want to care about this kind of thing. .
Wang Luyuan needs the protection of the Zhang family to save his life. He and the Zhang family are now prosperous. As long as Zhang Zhixuan makes his strong relationship clear, this person is more aware of current affairs and will definitely cooperate fully.
Of course, the Foundation Establishment Pill must be used. Only by cultivating Foundation Establishment monks can this treasure be of its due value. According to Zhang Zhixuan’s inner thoughts, he was still going to use the Foundation Establishment Pill on Zhang Sihong.
Although Zhang Sihong has not contributed a small amount to the family, he is the grandnephew of Nineteenth Uncle who is closely related by blood. If Nineteenth Uncle supports him fully, he should be able to raise three thousand good works. In addition, if he works hard on his own, he can save some before he is sixty years old. If Patriarch Zhang Zhixuan and others lend him some, they can raise enough good deeds to redeem the Foundation Establishment Pill.
As a Second Spiritual Root cultivator, he has more than 80% chance of using the Foundation Establishment Pill to build the foundation, so using the Foundation Establishment Pill in this way is the most reliable.
Due to an operational error, I sent chapters 197 and 198 in the wrong order. I hope everyone can forgive me.
