The Rise of the Shen Family

In the blink of an eye, more than a year has passed in a hurry.

In the past year or so, dozens of families, large and small, in Linhai County have gradually recovered some vitality from the plague of evil and the border battle half a year ago.

Because of the continuous mining of the large mixed spiritual material mine in the north, the entire Linhai County is showing a thriving scene.

Although only the three major foundation-building families are qualified to mine ores in the mines, the rest of the Qi-cultivating families can also follow behind these three families to get some oil and water.

After everything in the mine was on track, Qingyunmen began to hire a large number of people to mine.

As a result, some small family cultivators and loose cultivators in Linhai County flocked to this large mine, making the mine very lively.

Of course, as long as there are more people, then there will be people of the three religions and nine ranks, and there are many people who steal and play tricks.

However, after the Qingyunmen Foundation Establishment cultivator killed several people who stole the ore by means of thunder, no one dared to think about it any more, and they only dared to work honestly.

As more and more monks rushed to the mine from other places, they all needed to pass through Linhai County, which made the originally desolate northern border immediately lively.

So under the leadership of the Shen family, together with the Li family, the Du family, and other qi-cultivating families, they built another small market in the northern part of Linhai County near the mine.

The scale of this square market is not large, only one-third the size of Linhaifang City, and the construction is relatively simple, and it can only be regarded as a trading place.

The objects of its service are those monks in the mines and the monks who pass from the south to the north.

However, although this square market is relatively simple, the large mine next to it has attracted a lot of low-level monks, so the business is not bad.

Since the Shen family took the lead in provoking this matter, the Shen family was also a prominent family in Linhai County, and the county guard was held by the head of the Shen family, so the Shen family directly occupied 35% of the revenue of this town.

The Li family and the Du family each occupy 20% of the base building family, and the remaining 20% ​​is divided up by the other small families who have invested in the shares.

This border town is the first project that the Shen family led other families in Linhai County to jointly build after becoming a prominent family in Linhai County. It can bring nearly 2,000 spiritual stones to the Shen family every year.

As for the branch of the purple-patterned sand vein on the Shenjia mine, nearly 20 kilograms of third-order purple-patterned sand can be mined every year, which is equivalent to an annual income of 10,000 spirit stones.

Therefore, adding these two incomes together, the Shen family can now earn about 12,000 more spirit stones every year, which is a solution to their urgent needs.

Although the family business has continued to expand over the years, the family's annual income has also increased significantly.

However, as the number of clan members increases, the family industry expands more and more widely, and various expenses also increase, and it has become more than enough to make ends meet.

Moreover, for the past two decades, Shen Ruiling has been supporting the patriarch Shen Huanchi to take the final step, exchanging many resources in the family for the spiritual pills and spiritual objects that the patriarch needs to cultivate.

Therefore, although the Shen family at this time looked magnificent, in fact, the cultivation resources in the family library were not as rich as they imagined.

This was also because the Shen family had obtained the resources in the secret vault left by the Zhou family, and in the turmoil of evil, they had obtained a large number of spirit stones in a short period of time by selling Fire Spirit Pills.

Of course, although the wealth in the Shen family's treasury is not as much as imagined, the monthly salary that the Shen family can receive is much more than before.

It is precisely because of getting more salaries and sufficient cultivation resources that the cultivation of the Shen clan can improve so quickly.

The overall strength of the family has been greatly improved in the short 20 to 30 years after the implementation of the New Deal.

At present, the Shen family has five foundation-building cultivators, twenty-eight members of the ninth-level qi training, forty-six members of the late-stage qi-training clan, 63 middle-stage qi-training cultivators, and early-stage qi-training clan members. Seventy-eight people.

...

In the cave mansion in the back mountain, Shen Ruiling looked at the family's income and expenditure in recent years, as well as the cultivation of the clansmen.

When he saw the data, he couldn't help but feel relieved.

Today's family is much stronger than it was in the past, and it is a little more confident in the face of the upcoming Lingnan turmoil.

Now the most important thing is to see the patriarch!

Suddenly, Shen Ruiling, who was in deep thought, felt the pull of a burst of spiritual power, and the spiritual power on Yunbi Peak seemed to be gathering somewhere.

"Could it be!"

Surprised and happy in his heart, he immediately got up and swept out of the cave.

However, when he came to the back of the cave, he found that the spiritual energy on Yunbi Peak was not converging in the cave where the patriarch retreated, but was constantly converging towards the Pill Pavilion on Yuxiu Terrace.

"Fourth brother?"

Shen Ruiling couldn't help but murmured, a look of joy appeared on his face.

This kind of vision of the gathering of spiritual power can only appear when the foundation-building cultivator breaks through the bottleneck, so Shen Ruiling guessed that it was the fourth brother Shen Ruizhi's breakthrough in the middle-stage foundation-building bottleneck.

Shen Ruizhi has been building the foundation for 20 years. Now that he can find an opportunity to make a breakthrough, Shen Ruiling is naturally happy for him.

After a short period of joy, Shen Ruiling flew directly towards the Pill Pavilion.

At this time, there were many clansmen standing on the open space in front of the Pill Pavilion.

Most of them were alchemists and apprentices in the alchemy pavilion. Because of this sudden change, they had to wait outside.

Shen Ruiling looked at the top of the Pill Pavilion, and the surrounding spiritual power was constantly gathering there.

I saw that he wielded a spiritual power and controlled the guardian formation to deliberately gather the spiritual power on Yunbi Peak to the top of the Pill Pavilion.

...

At the same time, in a room on the top floor of Nadan Pavilion, Shen Ruizhi was sitting cross-legged on the mat used for meditation.

His whole body was shrouded in blue light, and lines appeared on his body, like the bark of an ancient tree.

The injuries on his physical body have recovered, and his physical body now seems to be stronger than before.

His body shone with bursts of green light, thus continuously swallowing the spiritual power that poured into his body from all directions.

With the influx of spiritual power, the spiritual liquid accumulated at the bottom of the dantian also rose at a speed visible to the naked eye. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

It didn't take long for the spiritual liquid in Shen Ruizhi's dantian to reach a limit of saturation, as if there was an invisible barrier above the slowly rising spiritual liquid, making it difficult for them to continue to grow.

Shen Ruizhi knew that this was the bottleneck that spanned between the early and middle stages of foundation building.

However, at this time, the bottleneck that was supposed to be incomparably strong has become loose, and countless gaps have been cracked.

The torrent of spiritual fluid in his dantian continued to impact this bottleneck, expanding those gaps.

"Boom~"

The next moment, this turbulent torrent of spiritual fluid was like a flood that washed away a levee, piercing the barrier in an instant.

The torrent of spiritual fluid that broke through the barrier was like a wild horse running away, rushing towards the upper part of the dantian.

All of a sudden, the majestic spiritual power in the room began to be pulled up, rushing towards Shen Ruizhi's body.

A huge vortex of spiritual power had already formed in the room, and Shen Ruizhi was sitting in the center of the vortex, letting the boundless and majestic spiritual power pour into his body.

After an unknown amount of time, the vortex of spiritual power in the room gradually dissipated.

Shen Ruizhi still sat on the mat with his eyes closed, and seriously felt the changes brought to him by the middle stage of foundation building.

Seriously speaking, Shen Ruizhi was a blessing in disguise this time.

When he fought against the middle-stage cultivator of the Promise Sect, he used the forbidden secret technique of burning flesh and blood to gain power.

This secret technique made his body, which was already seriously injured, even more injured.

However, it was his overloaded use of the forbidden secret technique, which unexpectedly broke the mid-stage foundation-building bottleneck that had plagued him for many years.
