The Immortal Family: Starting from Spreading Branches and Leaves

More than a month later.

The entire col has been completely renovated, and the original jungle has been replaced by a large number of houses and fields.

Chen Ling also renamed the mountain pass, Chenjiaao.

Under the Mengping plan, the col is divided into three areas.

The most central place is the one mile at the foot of the mountain where the spiritual veins are located.

This is the source of spiritual energy and the place with the most abundant spiritual energy in the entire mountain.

The second level area is one mile to ten miles outside the spiritual veins, where various cultivation sites are concentrated, such as spiritual fields, workshops, medicine gardens, etc.

The spiritual energy in the outer periphery is relatively thin, and it is the area where mortals live.

"Master, the spiritual vein has been penetrated! It is a first-level top-grade spiritual vein dominated by fire spiritual energy!"

In front of Lingmai Valley, Meng Ping reported to Chen Ling with a happy face.

Chen Ling nodded, with a look of joy on his face, and took a deep breath.

You can clearly feel the abundant fire aura pouring into your body.

In addition to the fire aura, there are also some water, metal and wood auras.

This spiritual vein seems to be destined, prepared for the Chen family.

Just the exercises that Chen Ling, Li Yourong and He Yunxiu majored in were all fire-attributed. Even the Qin family and the Meng family, most of their clan members also had fire-attribute spiritual roots.

This rich fire spirit is perfect for them.

In more than a month, not only most of the buildings in the mountain col have been completed.

At the same time, he also purchased a second-level high-grade magic formation from Wanbao Tower, the Qinglong Sword Formation.

This sword formation can cover a radius of two to thirty miles.

With this magic formation, the safety factor of the entire Chenjia'ao has also increased linearly.

But it’s not cheap either.

A total of nearly 500 mid-grade spiritual stones were spent, and the mid-grade spiritual stones in his hand were almost exhausted.

There are four high-grade spiritual stones and several hundred low-grade spiritual stones left.

I feel like this spiritual stone is really worthless!

"Master, several ladies and other clan members have been sent over! They are waiting in the main mansion."

At this time, a tribesman came quickly to report.

"Okay, I'll be there right away."

Chen Ling said with a smile.

After arranging the sword array and spiritual veins, Chen Ling asked Qingtang to take over the family.

It's almost noon now.

The sky is as clear as water.

The scorching sun shines across the entire mountain col, and a winding stream passes around the mountain col, like a golden ribbon.

The entire col looks like a vibrant, busy and prosperous scene.

On the main street in the south of Shan'ao, there is an exquisite and gorgeous courtyard in the middle.

The plaque on the door reads "Chen Family".

This is where Chen Lingxin lives.

The layout of the courtyard is similar to the original small courtyard, except that this courtyard is a three-entry courtyard with sixteen rooms and a wider area.

In order to save money, Chen Ling also asked people to move all the extra furniture from the Qin family.

The other decorations are not too particular!

When Chen Ling entered the house, he was greeted by He Yunxiu and his family.

"Husband, this will be our new home from now on?"

He Yunxiu poured a glass of water for Chen Ling, her tone was dreamy and unbelieving.

A pair of autumn eyes looked at Chen Ling, full of tenderness!

There is already an obvious bulge in the belly.

You know, more than a year ago, they were still struggling in a monk slum like Hongye Lane.

Now the place is full of spiritual energy and the streets are clean and spacious. It is like a brand new world in her eyes.

But all this belongs to them!

She was convinced of Chen Ling's abilities, but she never thought that there would be such earth-shaking changes in such a short period of time.

Not only did she become the head of the family, but she also had her own spiritual energy. All this made her feel like she was in a dream.

Chen Ling smiled and said, "From now on, our family can live peacefully here without having to run around and be afraid!"

[Tip: He Yunxiu’s family sense of belonging reaches 130%, and the golden incense value +3. 】

[Tip: Chu Yu’s family sense of belonging reaches 110%, and the golden incense value +1. 】

[Tip: Qin Yelian's family sense of belonging reaches 110%, and the golden incense value +1. 】

Look at the prompt bar displayed on the panel.

Chen Ling sighed in his heart, monks also need to have a house and land!

But think about it, this is normal. He Yunxiu, Chu Yu and Qin Yelian are all relatively low-level monks.

Their requirements are not high, they just hope that Chen Ling can provide them with a place to settle down and practice.

Now Chenjia'ao has fully satisfied their needs.

"Husband!"

"Husband!"

Behind He Yunxiu, Chu Yu and Qin Wumei also called him with smiles.

"You each find your own room and settle down."

"Fifth sister, you will be in charge of the family's elixir garden and alchemy hall from now on."

Chen Ling said with a smile.

All the elixirs in the elixir garden were transplanted from the original Qin family's elixir garden.

Of course, some losses will inevitably occur during the transplantation process, but there is nothing we can do about it.

Qin Wumei immediately agreed happily!

"Dad, why have you forgotten me?"

Xiaopingan, who was behind everyone, looked at Chen Ling with wide eyes and pouted.

After not seeing each other for more than two months, Xiaopingan has grown significantly again.

Chen Ling reached out to pick him up and said with a smile, "Did you bully Chun'er?"

"She only grabs things from me and doesn't play with me!" Xiaopingan complained.

"As my brother, I must give it to her!" Chen Ling pinched Xiao Ping'an's nose and said with a smile.

Then Chen Ling sat on the main seat, took a sip of water, and said, "Yunxiu, let's make a meal for lunch. I'll invite Uncle Shen, Father-in-law, Meng Ping, and Chu Gui to come over and have a drink!"

He Yunxiu left in response, and Qin Yelian also went to help, leaving Chu Yu with the child.

Qingtang and Qin Wumei went to clean up the room.

Chen Ling hugged Chun'er and played with Xiao Ping An again.

Chun'er's baby fat hasn't gone away yet, looking at Chen Ling's smile, it's really cute!

······．

"Master, the population of the Chen family is close to 1,500. In addition to the cultivation resources of the monks, there is also a large consumption of rice, food, clothing and silk every month. Now in Jinshanfang City, the price is much higher than other places. I am thinking, Can we trade with the Beast Sect in the west in the future?"

After drinking for three rounds, Shen Zhen said to Chen Ling.

The distance between Chenjia'ao and Jinshanfang City is less than 300 miles, and the border with the Hundred Beast Sect to the west is only about 400 miles.

Four hundred miles is not a big distance for a monk.

However, most of the direction from Chenjia'ao to the Western Beast Sect is still a relatively desolate area.

It is not as prosperous as the eastern region of Star Sword Sect.

The journey is relatively risky!

During this time, as the monsters left in Wangjiafang City, the remaining members of the Qin family also fled back.

The population of the Chen family reached about 1,500.

Chen Ling thought about it and felt that with the current high-pressure situation of the Qingyang Sect against the Star Sword Sect, and the continuous arrival of other forces from the Metallurgical Alliance, the advantage of the Chen family's magical weapons in Jinshanfang City will gradually be lost.

After all, most of the other weapon refiners of the Chen family are first-level low-level ones, and there are only a few middle-level ones.

The overall level of weapon refining is far inferior to that of the weapon refining families of the Smelting Alliance.

The reason why sales are good now is that the Qingyang Sect has blocked the access to the Yunmengze mine, which has greatly increased the price of the ore.

Only through one-stop production can the Chen family have profit margins.

Once the Artifact Refining Alliance finds other sources of ore, then the advantage of the Chen family's magic weapon will be gone.

So overall, for the future development of the family, developing towards the Western Beast Sect is also a good choice.

Of course, given the current situation in the west, the risk is still quite high, so you have to buy a medium-sized cloud boat.

"But the Hundred Beasts Sect mainly focuses on beast control, so the demand for magical weapons may not be high, right?"

Meng Ping frowned and said.

Shen Zhen stopped and said, "You don't understand this. There are thousands of disciples of the Hundred Beast Sect, and there are only about one-tenth of the number of beast control masters. Most of them still rely on magic weapons to fight."

"Moreover, battle armor and robes must be equipped no matter what type of monk they are."

"Besides, the area where the Hundred Beasts Sect is located is quite lacking in terms of mining resources and weapon refiners, and there are not many shops. However, the relationship with the Qingyang Sect, Suiyun Sword Sect, etc. is relatively harmonious."

"Originally, the Qin family had already started to open up sales channels for the Hundred Beast Sect, but later the production failed to increase, so it was abandoned."

"In addition, if we plant spiritual grains or elixirs in this spiritual land in Chenjia'ao, the yield will definitely be high, and we can also sell them together with magical artifacts."

Everyone suddenly became enlightened after hearing Shen Zhen's words.

After all, Shen Zhen was a businessman and was well-informed.

"Uncle Shen, since you have experience in this area, you will be in charge. As for Jinshanfang City, I will let Ye Lian manage it from now on." Chen Ling said with a smile.

Shen Zhen clasped his fists.

Chu Xiong had fully recovered from his injuries and mentioned to Chen Ling that he wanted to go to the mine.

When Chen Ling heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Chu Yu, who was feeding Chun'er porridge at the next table, and saw her frowning slightly.

Knowing that Chu Xiong was in danger in the mine last time, Chu Yu was worried for a few days and did not want Chu Xiong to go to the mine again.

Chen Ling thought for a while and finally nodded in agreement.

After all, there are not many people in the Chen family who can take charge of all aspects like Chu Xiong.

"Chu Keqing, you will be responsible for refining alchemy from now on. Also, see if there are any disciples in the clan who are talented in alchemy. You can teach them."

Chen Ling said to Chu Gui again.

"Yes, head of the family!"

Chu Gui, who was drinking and eating meat in a low voice, quickly put down his wine glass and replied with a smile and cupped fists.

He is quite satisfied with his current life, where he has no worries about food and clothing and no risks.

As for the subsequent planning and management of the spiritual land, Chen Ling left it to Meng Ping.

After all, Meng Ping has this knowledge and rich experience.

Now is the right time to sow spiritual grains, and time is relatively tight.

Meng Ping also quickly introduced the plan to him. With the opening of the spirit-guiding array, the spiritual energy in the soil of the spiritual field will gradually become richer in the future.

The Lingtian needs professional Lingzhufu to manage it.

Now there are only a few Lingzhufus in the Chen family, and they are unable to manage this spiritual land at all, so they can only hire some Lingzhufus from outside first.

Come to carry out spring sowing and manage spiritual fields.

The identities of these Lingzhifu are all registered with the Fangshi Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, so their safety and credibility are still guaranteed.

Chen Ling didn't understand this matter, but Chu Yu knew a lot.

But Chu Yu had to take care of the children and practice, so he couldn't spare any time.

So Chen Ling asked Meng Ping to take full responsibility.

After determining the general direction of the development of the family related to refining, mining, elixirs and spiritual fields, Chen Ling breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s really hard to be the head of this family!

As for many other matters, we can only take it step by step in the future.

It takes hundreds of years and several generations of hard work for a foundation-building family to stabilize.

It doesn't take three to five years to achieve any results!

The meal ended unknowingly amid heated discussions.

Shen Zhen and the other four said goodbye and left.

Chen Ling was about to send them out.

He Yunxiu came over in a hurry, took care of his hair carefully, and said with a smile, "You, the head of the family, must have the majesty of the head of the family, your hair is messed up!"

Chen Ling smiled. He really didn't care much about his personal dress.

After sending the four people away, return to the hall.

He Yunxiu and the others were busy cleaning up.

Chun'er and Xiaopingan had just moved to a new home. After playing excitedly all morning, they were already a little sleepy and were taken back to the room to sleep by He Yunxiu.

He poured a cup of spiritual tea and sat outside the hall door with a contented look on his face.

The sunshine in the spring afternoon crosses the patio and casts interlaced circles of light and shadow on the corridor.

There was a gentle breeze and the surroundings were unusually rich in spiritual energy.

Under the blue sky, birds soared past from time to time, making clear chirping sounds.

Chen Ling crossed her legs and took a sip of the spirit tea.

The rich aura and pleasant sunshine made him feel a little drowsy.

I have never felt so completely relaxed.

My heart was filled with a faint sense of peace and accomplishment.

Only now does he truly feel that he is the head of the family. No matter his identity, status, or class, everything has changed drastically from before.

"But don't let it drift! The smoother it goes, the more cautious you must be!" Chen Ling reminded secretly.

The development of the family has just begun.

Although I have been the head of the family for a few months, I haven't done much in normal times, and now I feel that I haven't fully adapted to it yet. In the past, I still had a lot of care from Wang Hai in Fang City.

But here, if you start over again, you can only rely on yourself, so you have to be more careful.

At least the foundation must be established as soon as possible. Once the strength is improved, there will be capital to establish a foothold.

He has self-knowledge in his heart.

Although Gao Wu was quickly killed in the early stage of foundation building a while ago, it was just an unexpected spiritual attack, and Gao Wu was able to achieve this effect only when Gao Wu was unprepared.

After all, although it is the divine consciousness in the late stage of foundation building, every time he uses it, it consumes a huge amount of money.

It will take some time to fully recover consciousness.

And once it is blocked by the opponent, it will be dangerous!

Therefore, he would not easily launch a spiritual attack unless absolutely necessary.

Chen Ling was lying on a wicker chair, drinking tea and thinking.

After drinking tea, he came to the training room.

In addition to being half the size of the original training room, the training room is also several times richer in spiritual energy.

Others, not much has changed.

Of course, there is no ground fire.

Sit cross-legged on the futon and click on the panel.

Incense value: 120.

"120 incense points, accumulated over the past month, then increase your spiritual roots as soon as possible!"

Chen Ling's spiritual consciousness is a little behind the spiritual root.

As the value of the incense decreased rapidly, a majestic and familiar flow of hot air poured into the meridians.

As his meridians strengthened, he became accustomed to the pain caused by this hot air flow.

The air flow swims in the meridians, then lingers in the sea of ​​​​qi, and slowly merges into it.

Poof!

In the meridians, two more spiritual points were opened.

"It's ninety-eight!"

"Open another spiritual acupoint and you can prepare to build the foundation!"

Chen Ling couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.

Between each inhalation and exhalation, the speed of absorbing spiritual energy has increased significantly.

You must know that this is the place with the most spiritual energy in the entire Chenjiaao.

It is the source of the first-class spiritual veins, and it is obvious that the spiritual energy is abundant.

Chen Ling felt that the current overall cultivation speed was probably more than twice the original speed.

After burning a stick of incense, Chen Ling came out of this rapid cultivation state.

The sparkle in his eyes flashed across the panel.

Incense value: 0

Spiritual roots: lower-grade spiritual roots of the four systems (gold, wood, fire, earth, 73/100) (+)

"At this speed, it will take three or four months to enter the middle-grade spiritual root."

Chen Ling's eyes changed.

If everything goes well, the foundation will be established in half a year.

Next, we need to prepare the Foundation Establishment Pill.

"To be on the safe side, it's best to prepare an extra two-elixir pattern foundation-building pill, or a three-elixir pattern foundation-building pill." He thought carefully in his mind.

However, even the Wanbao Tower does not have the Three Pill Pattern Building Pills, let alone the Star Sword Sect.

"The Three Pills Foundation Building Pill is really hard to find, and I don't know where to get it from?" Chen Ling pondered in his heart.

Fortunately, the matter of the Foundation Establishment Pill is not in a hurry.

Another sudden thought occurred in my heart. Among the various arts of cultivation, such as pills, weapons, talismans, arrays, etc., the most difficult to learn and the one that requires the most talent is undoubtedly alchemy.

But once you become successful in cultivation, it is also the most profitable!

Not to mention anything else, just one Erdan pattern foundation building pill would cost hundreds of thousands of spirit stones.

Of course, foundation-building elixirs are very valuable and cannot be possessed by ordinary forces.

But now his spiritual awareness is not low, and he has condensed the Green Lotus Thunder Gang Fire.

There is also the "Muyuan Alchemy" for practicing alchemy.

Many conditions are already met.

As long as you add some "Muyuan Alchemy", you can start making alchemy!

After all, sharpening the knife never misses the woodcutter!

In the future, whether it is yourself or your family, if you want to improve your cultivation, you will need a lot of pills to assist you.

Especially He Yunxiu and Chu Yu, their current cultivation levels are only at the third level of Qi training.

To speed up the improvement, only a large number of high-level Aiki Pills can assist.

And with Qin Wumei's alchemy speed, it is simply unable to meet the needs of the family's current more than 100 monks.

If you can refine the Heqi Pill with three elixir patterns.

Then the problem will be solved.

Chen Ling took a deep breath. He originally planned to upgrade his spiritual roots to the middle level, and then buy the Foundation Establishment Pill to build the foundation.

But now the idea has changed.

In order to increase the probability of foundation building, he planned to try to refine the elixir himself.

Anyway, it’s just something to add.

As a result, the original plan will also be postponed.

However, this impact is not big.

After all, Chen Jia'ao has now deployed a second-level high-grade magic circle, so safety is still guaranteed.

Although this will inevitably delay some time, it is conservatively estimated that it will take at least more than 300 points, which is more than three months, to upgrade "Muyuan Dan Technique" to a proficient level.

But it took three months to refine the second-level elixir.

No matter what, it's worth it!

Then, the contents of "Muyuan Dan Shu" came to his mind.

"Muyuan Alchemy" is a top-level mortal magic method, which records the refining methods of hundreds of kinds of elixirs.

Most of them are first-level elixirs, but there are also more than a dozen second-level elixirs, such as Peiyuan Dan, Taixuan Dan, etc.

There is also a lot of knowledge about material handling and identification.

The refining process is similar to that of weapon refining. It also requires material processing, heat control, and material fusion.

It's just that the control of the flame requires more precision, and it pays attention to precise control of the heat.

Even if there is one more calorie, the elixir will be in vain!
