Family Cultivation: Many Children, Many Blessings

Chapter 113 Zhou Zirong's Foundation Establishment

Of Lin Changyue's many children, apart from Lin Qingyao, who is far away in the Xuanbing Hall and has reached the late stage of Qi Refining, the rest of his children are still in the early or middle stage of Qi Refining.

But that can't stop the sheer number of them!
A few months ago, the number of Lin Changyue's offspring with spiritual roots officially exceeded twenty!

Currently, within the Lin family, Lin Changyue is not only the number one in cultivation and combat power, but also the number one in the number of offspring with spiritual roots.

His diligent attitude is evident.

However, even if others want to learn, they may be able to catch up with Lin Changyue in terms of quantity, but they will never be able to surpass him in terms of quality.

Because Qin Li's son, Lin Qingyan, had his spiritual root tested within the clan after turning three, his first-grade spiritual root aptitude was revealed, causing a sensation throughout the Lin family.

This is the first time in all the years since the Lin family was founded that a genius with a first-grade spiritual root has been born!

In the past, if the Lin family had produced a disciple with a first-grade spiritual root, the entire clan would have been incredibly excited, and the clan leader, Lin Daoyuan, and the elders would have been at a loss as to how to nurture him.

But now that Lin Changyue's 'precious gem' has set an example, with combat power comparable to that of a fake core cultivator, the first-grade spiritual root seems less dazzling.

After all, while first-grade spiritual roots are rare, most geniuses with first-grade spiritual roots can only reach the late Foundation Establishment stage and find it difficult to pass the Core Formation stage.

of course.

Lin Changyue would still designate the best cultivation path for Lin Qingyan, who had the best spiritual root talent among his many offspring, and nurture him well and urge him to cultivate diligently.

After all, the harder the children practice, the more rewards he will give them!
"Unfortunately, no third-generation offspring with spiritual roots has appeared yet."

Lin Changyue thought with some regret.

He has many children, and quite a few of them have already reached adulthood.

The older ones, like the eldest son Lin Duofu, are already 24 years old this year. They are already married with children, and have established their own families and careers. They already have several children.

However, Lin Duofu had no spiritual roots, and the wives he married were all ordinary people. As one can imagine, none of their children had spiritual roots either.

Of the adult children, only three possessed spiritual roots.

They are Lin Qingchan, the second daughter; Lin Qingzhi, the eighth daughter; and Lin Qingyao, the ninth son.

Needless to say, Lin Qingchan and Lin Qingyao will probably not get married and have children anytime soon.

After Lin Qingchan broke off her engagement with the Jin family, although she had long since emerged from the shadow of her failed relationship and would no longer be heartbroken for Jin Chuwei, she probably wouldn't consider finding a Daoist partner again in the short term. She would focus on cultivation and business, and begin to take charge of a portion of the family's assets. As for Lin Qingyao in the Xuanbing Hall, he was even more of a worry. After his cultivation broke through to the seventh level of Qi Refining, he wanted to join the front lines of the two major sects, but the Xuanbing Hall, out of respect for Lin Changyue, took the initiative to place him in a rear sect.

But Lin Qingyao, that brat, actually wrote home asking Lin Changyue if he could use his connections to get the sect to send him to the front lines!
He wanted to go to the front lines to broaden his horizons and at the same time make contributions to the sect.

This infuriated his mother, Su Yuejiao, who wiped away tears several times.

Lin Changyue would naturally not write a letter asking the Xuanbing Hall to send him to the battlefield.

He was reasonable and didn't write a letter asking Xuanbing Hall to send him back to his family, so how could he take the initiative to send him to the battlefield?
However, hoping that Lin Qingyao will carry on the family line is unlikely in the short term.

Fortunately, the wedding date for the eighth prince, Lin Qingzhi, has been set.

There shouldn't be any surprises this time.

Lin Qingzhi is the second daughter of Lin Changyue's first wife, Huang Ying'er. Her spiritual root is the lowest grade, the ninth grade, just like Lin Changyue's. Therefore, she is already 19 years old this year, and her cultivation has only recently broken through to the third level of Qi Refining. It is unknown when she will be able to advance to the middle level of Qi Refining.

However, Lin Qingzhi and her brother Lin Duofu share similar personalities; both tend to be calm and steady, and are not prone to unrealistic ambitions.

If she had high aspirations, with Lin Changyue's status and strength, she could have chosen a Daoist partner with exceptional talent. However, in the end, she chose a rogue cultivator whose spiritual root quality was only slightly higher than hers, a seventh-grade spiritual root.

The rogue cultivator, for the sake of Lin Qingzhi, was willing to marry into the Lin family.

After Lin Qingzhi gets married, perhaps in two years, Lin Changyue's first third-generation descendant with spiritual roots will appear.

Then, there will be new system rewards.

……

On this day, an unusual fluctuation of spiritual energy suddenly came from the sky above the Seven Star Island market, attracting the attention of many cultivators.

"Look! Someone is attempting to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm!"

"The spiritual energy vortex has appeared; it seems we've reached a crucial moment!"

"The anomaly seems quite stable. Could it be that another Foundation Establishment cultivator is about to emerge?"

"I don't know who it is."

Seven Star Island Market is very large, consisting of seven islands, and is home to tens of thousands of cultivators.

The spiritual root level of the entire market is also quite high, being a top-tier second-order spiritual vein.

In such a relatively large market town, it is not particularly rare for independent cultivators to come here to establish their foundation.

On average, it happens about once a year.

of course.

Having someone lay the foundation does not guarantee success.

The success rate is extremely low.

It might only be 20% at most.

Because those who come here to establish their foundations are all independent cultivators.

Not to mention sect disciples, anyone from a Foundation Establishment family will establish their Foundation in their own family territory, not in the Seven Star Island market.

The spiritual roots and resources of independent cultivators are very poor.

Many independent cultivators do not have Foundation Establishment Pills when they attempt to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

He had only reached the ninth level of Qi Refining and was about to turn sixty, so he prepared one or two spiritual items that would help him with Foundation Establishment. He then decided to go all out and fight to the death.

With at most a mid-grade spiritual root and no Foundation Establishment Pills, the probability of successfully establishing a foundation is naturally very low.

However, the one who successfully triggered the Foundation Establishment phenomenon today was not a rogue cultivator.

Instead, it was Lin Changyue's wife, Zhou Zirong!

Three years ago, Zhou Zirong had already broken through to the ninth level of Qi Refining.

In order to accumulate a solid foundation and push everything to its absolute limit, he deliberately delayed for three years before finally attempting to establish his foundation.

Zhou Zirong's spiritual root aptitude is not bad; it is a fifth-grade spiritual root. Moreover, she is still relatively young. She is more than ten years younger than Lin Changyue, so she is only forty years old now, and her vitality is at its peak.

In addition, Lin Changyue had prepared Foundation Establishment Pills for her.

Given her qualifications, she could be considered to have the highest theoretical success rate among cultivators attempting to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm in the Seven Star Island Market over the past decade.

"The physical body test went smoothly, and the mana test, after taking the Foundation Establishment Pill, did not encounter any major setbacks. It should be successful soon."

"Only the last step remains, the test of spiritual awareness, which involves some uncertainty."

Lin Changyue also stopped cultivating that day, keeping a close eye on his wife Zhou Zirong's breakthrough.

Not only him, but his wives, including Qin Li, the 'thirteenth concubine,' were also silently watching.

Lin Changyue's harem atmosphere has always been very good.

Even though there are clear 'classes' and huge differences in status and cultivation level, which prevent them from playing together normally, there is no hatred between them.

Therefore, everyone still calls each other sisters, and they can be said to share both glory and loss.

Since there is no conflict of interest and they are on the same side, everyone naturally hopes that Zhou Zirong can successfully establish her foundation and make a good start for getting many wives besides Qin Li.

After Zhou Zirong attempted to reach the Foundation Establishment stage, several other wives will follow suit and try to do so as well.

For example, the next one is Su Yuejiao.

Su Yuejiao is not young anymore; she is 51 this year and not far from 60.

Fortunately, her cultivation level was already very close to the ninth level of Qi Refining, and she was expected to break through within a year and a half.

After reaching the ninth level of Qi Refining, I will definitely be able to attempt Foundation Establishment in two or three years.

If Zhou Zirong can successfully establish her foundation, it will give those who come after her more confidence.

"Generally speaking, most cultivators who break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm fail at the mana barrier. Once the mana barrier is successfully passed, the final divine sense barrier is relatively easier, with a success rate as high as 80%!"

Su Yuejiao's face was beaming with joy.

Although she had no experience in Foundation Establishment, she was very knowledgeable about it and had already investigated all aspects of it thoroughly.

Hearing her say that, all the women smiled.

just.

Accidents will happen.

Just a few days later, Zhou Zirong successfully completed the magic power test. The magic power in her dantian had become extremely dense, turning into a thick mist that was almost dripping water droplets at any moment. She was just waiting for the magic power test to complete its transformation so that she could take the final step of compression.

But it was precisely at the moment of transformation of magical power that it happened.

Zhou Zirong's sea of ​​consciousness suddenly could not withstand the pressure of heaven and earth, and collapsed with a 'boom'.

As the divine consciousness dissipated, the magical power that had been condensed to its extreme within the dantian also began to backfire, exploding like fireworks and reverting to a gaseous state.

When it is concentrated, the dantian can withstand it, but after the explosion, the dantian naturally cannot bear it and is instantly washed away by the powerful backflow of magic power, leaving it riddled with holes.

Not only the dantian, but also many meridians began to be broken open.

"not good!"

Upon seeing this, Lin Changyue's expression changed, and he immediately rushed into the cultivation room where Zhou Zirong was breaking through.

Seeing this, Qin Li, who was also standing nearby, followed suit and entered.

Seven Star Island is the territory of the Lin family, and it is also protected by Lin Changyue, who is comparable to a fake Core Formation cultivator. The cultivation room has no defenses.

The two entered the cultivation room one after the other without incident, and saw that Zhou Zirong was spitting out a mouthful of blood, with beads of sweat dripping from her forehead and her whole body soaked in sweat, and she was enduring great pain.

His divine consciousness collapsed, and the magical power in his dantian 'exploded'.

It's already quite remarkable that Zhou Zirong didn't faint from such immense pain.

This is also thanks to the medicinal effects of the Foundation Building Pill.

At the moment of failure to break through, when the magic power began to backfire, the remaining medicinal power of the Foundation Establishment Pill instantly activated. A gentle force began to rapidly repair the dantian and meridians, and helped Zhou Zirong tame the raging magic power, making it docile.

If it weren't for the Foundation Establishment Pill, Zhou Zirong would probably have died within a few breaths after failing to break through.

"Ah Li, you help Zi Rong tame her magic, and I'll help her stabilize her consciousness!"

Upon seeing this, Lin Changyue quickly said something.

Although his combat strength is much stronger than Qin Li's now, he is still inferior to Qin Li in terms of cultivation and magic power.

He had only recently reached the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, while Qin Li had already recovered to the late-stage of Foundation Establishment and was not far from returning to the peak of Foundation Establishment. Therefore, the strength of her magical power and her control over it far surpassed Lin Changyue's.

However, in terms of spiritual power, Lin Changyue, who has raised the Seven-Colored Glazed Soul Refining Scripture to the sixth level, is already comparable to a False Core Immortal, and is much stronger than Qin Li.

then.

With the combined efforts of the two, Zhou Zirong's injuries were stabilized, almost as if she were a true Core Formation cultivator.

About an incense stick later, Zhou Zirong finally opened her eyes slowly. The injuries to her sea of ​​consciousness and dantian had barely stopped.

"Husband..."

But the moment she opened her eyes, the weak Zhou Zirong burst into tears upon seeing Lin Changyue.

She failed to establish her foundation.

Moreover, despite the help of the Foundation Establishment Pill and Lin Changyue, she still suffered significant backlash.

A double blow to both the physical body and the mind.

Although her cultivation level barely prevented it from regressing to the eighth level of Qi Refining, she still managed to maintain the ninth level of Qi Refining.

However, such injuries signify that her path to immortality is completely severed.

From then on, there was no possibility of becoming a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
