Chapter 218



218 Nurturing of the younger generation

Thanks to the protection of the ancestor, the cultivation speed of the Lu clan’s cultivators was much faster than that of ordinary people.

Some of the options that Lu Qing had directly exchanged for were effective. For example, the ‘diligent family culture’ and ‘high morale’ could subtly change the mentality of the clan members and make them work harder in their cultivation.

Moreover, after the clan became richer, many cultivation resources were open to the clan. As long as one was willing to work for the clan and contribute to the clan, they would always receive a considerable amount of clan contribution points as income. And these clan contributions could be used to exchange for various cultivation resources within the clan.

If the clan really didn’t have any, they could exchange their contribution points for spirit stones and buy them outside. It would be the same. The family Chamber of Commerce was doing quite well now. They didn’t even need to run around to buy anything they wanted. They could basically get whatever they wanted by placing an order with the family Chamber of Commerce.

There were plenty of resources and people were willing to work hard. In addition, Lu Qing persevered in helping the children of many clans improve their spiritual roots and exchanged items for clan members to speed up their cultivation. This allowed many people’s cultivation to speed up.

However, it was also because of this that there were many who were stuck at the ninth level of the Qi refining stage.

As a result, some people couldn’t stand the loneliness and wanted to try to break through without the foundation building pill.

Their boldness was probably a side effect of the various encouraging exchanges of family heritage. Another important reason was that there were ready-made role models in the family.

Lu mingchao was far away, and Lu Weiwen was nearby. These were examples of people who had completed the foundation building without using the foundation building elixir.

Many people saw that they were getting closer and closer to the checkpoint, and they still couldn’t get the foundation building pill from their clans. Many of them were tempted to try it out.

The family would definitely be against such a thing.

No matter what, every cultivator in the family was precious. Although he was still in the Qi refining stage, he was still at the ninth level of the Qi refining stage. No matter what, he could be considered as the backbone of the strength. Some of the strongest people in small families only had this level of strength. When they went out to do some not-so-important things, they could also be independent people.

The chances of breaking through to the foundation building realm without the foundation building elixir were too low. If this trend were to rise, no matter how many people there were in the Lu family, they would not be able to survive.

However, if Qianqian was really a 58 or 59-year-old cultivator, and her clan obviously couldn’t get any foundation building pills in the next one or two years, and even if they got them, they might not be able to distribute them to their hands, and she was looking forward to her future, how could they stop her from giving it a try even if she had to risk her life?

The only thing the clan could do was to try their best to dissuade him. If he really couldn’t persuade them, he would provide them with a portion of moon essence powder and hope that they would succeed. As for Lu Qing, he had also used the two two-star rare items in his hands to break through his bottleneck.

It was a pity that the three people who tried to break through all failed, and the family also lost three excellent backbone forces.

He had thought that after the three consecutive deaths of the losers, the atmosphere in the clan would be suppressed. However,

He did not.

Some of the younger ones even seemed to be eager to try.

Then this definitely wouldn’t work.

The clan adopted a strict attitude toward these people who wanted to break through without the protection of a foundation building elixir before they were over fifty years old to put an end to such thoughts.

However, the problem still existed, and it had to be resolved.

The Golden Lotus in the depths of the North barren forest was out of the question now. The Lu clan could only try to find other ways to get some foundation building pills.

The Lu family was quite rich now.

Now, the clan could save up to 2000 spiritual stones every year. Five years would be enough to make a foundation building pill.

Moreover, these foundation building pills were given to the corresponding clansmen, so they weren’t used for nothing. Even his clansmen had to fork out 10000 contribution points. Of course, if most people couldn’t pay, then they would owe it and slowly pay it back in years. In the long run, this sum of money would eventually come back.

Some time ago, the family had spent a few large sums of money. The largest sum of money was for Li Yanling to use to reach the Golden core stage, which cost 30000 spirit stones. This sum of money was 70% of the family’s Treasury. And now, the clan had more than 20000 spiritual stones.

If he wanted to buy, he could really buy two.

After some internal discussion, the family decided that the money had to be spent.

After thinking of some ways, the Lu clan managed to get one from the sect. In order to shut the sect leader’s mouth, the Lu family spent an extra 3000 spiritual stones.

As for the other one, he had asked the hai clan’s people to handle matters in Husheng trading company to buy it from the cultivation world in the South. It was at a premium of a little more than twenty percent.

The family’s Treasury was emptied.

However, it was not a big problem. The arrival of the two foundation building pills had boosted the morale of the Lu clan’s Qi refining cultivators.

One of the two crystals was distributed first.

Lu Jingming was the one who got the foundation building elixir.

Lu Jingming’s mother was Lu manting, his father was an unaffiliated cultivator who had married into his family, and his grandfather was Lu Qing’s eighth son, Lu chaozhao.

Her mother had passed away thirteen years ago. At that time, Lu manting was 58 years old and was close to the end of her 60s. Her cultivation level was at the ninth-stage Qi refining realm. Hence, she learned from mingchao and, without telling anyone, immediately went into seclusion in an attempt to break through to the foundation building realm. In the end, she failed.

At that time, Jing Ming was only thirteen years old.

She was originally born with three spiritual roots. When she was six years old, it was a good time. Lu Qing happened to have a lot of karma on hand. He also had a two-star spiritual root upgrade. Therefore, he changed her spiritual roots and evolved her into a double spiritual root.

The two spiritual roots were water-wood.

Although this child did not have many fortuitous encounters, his comprehension ability was not bad. This year, at the age of 25, she was already at the ninth level of the Qi refining stage, the same level as her mother when she was alive. She had been at this level for two to three years and had been polishing her skills well. She was ready to break through.

With such talent, there was nothing wrong with giving him the foundation building pill in advance.

As for the other one, the Lu family was not in a hurry to distribute it.

On the one hand, he had to leave one here to let everyone calm down a little.

On the other hand, Qianqian and Lu mingheng were about to reach the foundation building stage. Although it was not to the extent of directly giving this foundation building pill to him internally, he still had to take care of it so that he would have the qualifications to compete for it in a few years.

In addition, the clan had also sent two cultivators with two spiritual roots, Lu Wenzhong and Lu fa, into the sect.

Among them, Lu fa had Thunder-metal dual spiritual roots.

The two of them were already fourteen to fifteen years old when they entered the sect. They both had a certain Foundation in cultivation.

The reason for this was that the clan might not be able to provide them with foundation building pills in the future. In order not to delay others and enter the sect, it was more reliable to establish the sect’s wool.

Even if he had to pay with his sect contribution points, it would still be worth ten thousand spirit stones. It was better than finding a way to buy it. After all, not only would they need to pay a premium, but they would also need to find a way to get favors from others.
