Cultivation Begins From The Desert

After Zhou Guangxiang uttered the word "reform", all the monks in the Zhou family's deliberation hall were refreshed.

Regarding the reason for this family meeting, before the meeting officially started, the monks of the Zhou family gathered in Chihu Mountain made various guesses, and even tried their best to inquire about the news from the elder monks and friends from the same clan.

Of course they got nothing.

Before Zhou Yang actually announced the reform plan, only he and Zhou Guangxiang knew about the plan in the entire Zhou family. The rest of them, like their Taoist couple Xiao Ying and Liu Xuanxuan, only faintly felt that they were planning a big event. The specific content is not clear.

So seeing the patriarch Zhou Guangxiang saluting Zhou Yang so solemnly and saying these words suddenly, the Zhou family monks in the meeting hall immediately realized that the real highlight of this family meeting was coming.

Sure enough, as Zhou Guangxiang's words fell, Zhou Yang immediately got up, walked to the main seat and sat down, and then a divine light flashed in his eyes, and his eyes swept majesticly across the eight hundred Zhou family monks in the hall.

Suddenly, all the monks of the Zhou family in the audience felt their hearts tense. Everyone felt that Zhou Yang, the patriarch of the family, was staring at him. They all lowered their heads and dared not look at Zhou Yang's eyes. Monks are no exception.

Seeing this, Zhou Yang couldn't help nodding his head slightly, looked at everyone with satisfaction and said in a deep voice: "What I want to talk about today is a major event related to the prosperity and decline of the Zhou family, and one that will affect all monks of the Zhou family. A major event that will affect the Zhou family for thousands of years to come!"

"So you all cheer up this seat and listen carefully, listen clearly!"

call!

There was a sound of inhalation, and as soon as Zhou Yang finished speaking, all the monks of the Zhou family in the hall couldn't help taking a breath, and then waited with bated breath for him to say the earth-shattering words.

You must know that Zhou Yang has never said such a thing in such a solemn tone since the Zhou family held such a large family meeting.

So regardless of those Zhou family monks who participated in this kind of family meeting for the first time, some old Zhou family monks who have participated in this kind of family meeting many times already know that what Zhou Yang said next must be earth-shattering talk.

And Zhou Yang didn't make these clansmen wait too long. After the words fell for a while, he looked at everyone and said in a deep voice his long-planned reform plan.

"In view of the fact that the family territory is getting bigger and the number of monks is increasing, the original system where the patriarch and the seven elders jointly rule the family is no longer able to maintain the family's operation perfectly. After careful consideration, this seat has decided to separate the family!"

"Separation means that the family is distinguished by bloodline, divided into main vein and branch vein. The descendants of Guangxiang and this seat will be counted as monks of the main vein in the future. In the future, the patriarch of the Zhou family will be selected from the monks of the main vein first. Only monks with the blood of the main monks can open the inheritance treasure house!"

"Lingxi Peak and Chihu Mountain will be the inherent territorial assets of the main line. Only 30% of the income generated will go to the family, and the rest will belong to the main line."

"As for the branches, any existing foundation-building monks in the family can apply to the family for free to establish a branch, and get a third-order spiritual mountain as the branch's inherent territory. The income generated by the inherent territory also only needs to hand over 50% to the family. .”

"The founder of the branch can be called the head of the family. He has the same power as the head of the branch to the monks of the branch. He can establish a branch treasury to store all the property of the branch. He can establish a branch family elders to discuss the internal affairs of the branch. The family rules that conflict with the rules, punish the branch monks who violate the family rules."

"It needs to be made clear that no matter whether it is a main line monk or a branch line monk, after owning a fixed territory, they will no longer enjoy the benefits of family worship, nor can they take up the position of family deacon elder, but they can still obtain the status of family elder after establishing the foundation. The right to consult on family affairs, and continue to enjoy all the rights and interests of family monks except receiving fixed benefits and offerings."

"At the same time, if the monks of the main line and the branch line find a new territory to expand, as long as they continue to hand over the income from the territory to the family, the territory will be protected by the family. If they hand over the new territory to the family, they can get a lot of contribution points and spirit Stone reward."

"Also, the main vein and the branch veins are not static. Any monk with my Zhou family's bloodline, as long as his cultivation base is promoted to the golden core stage, he and his descendants can be merged into the main vein and become a monk of the main vein. Enjoy all the rights and interests of the main monks."

"Similarly, in the future, after any family monks other than the main line succeed in building a foundation, they can apply to the family to establish a branch line as long as they spend 100,000 family contribution points, and get the family bestowed Lingshan as the branch root."

"Finally, if the monks of the main line and the branch lines do not enjoy family benefits and enshrinement, and do not join the various halls of the family to receive family duties and benefits, they may not be assigned by the family's internal affairs hall and general affairs hall to complete relevant tasks, but if they violate the family rules, or In the event of a war, you still need to obey the punishment and recruitment of the family law enforcement hall and the battle hall."

"As for other non-mainline and branch monks, the original benefits and positions remain the same, and they can still receive various tasks of the family as usual, and at the same time, they can also receive various additional tasks issued by the main line monks and branch monks. remuneration."

Zhou Yang looked down at all the members of the Zhou family who were sitting in rows under the stage, and his powerful voice resounded through the entire conference hall.

And his words, like a thunderbolt, suddenly exploded from the minds of all the monks of the Zhou family who didn't know beforehand, shaking their scalps and stunned.

Before that, no one thought that he, the Supreme Elder who single-handedly created the present glorious Zhou family, would openly bring up the word of family separation in front of most of the monks of the whole family.

So after he finished saying these words, everyone was dumbfounded, dumbfounded, and didn't know what to do.

Even those monks in the Foundation Establishment Period are the same.

And Zhou Yang didn't urge these people, just waited patiently for them to digest this shocking news.

After waiting like this for about a quarter of an hour, one of the elders of the Zhou family finally came to his senses and asked a question.

"Dare to ask the Supreme Elder, why do you suddenly have the idea of ​​​​separating the family when my Zhou family is in its heyday?"

"There are so many immortal cultivating families in our Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm. Every family is afraid that the family territory is not big enough and the population is not large enough. They will try their best to bring the family monks together to accomplish things together. Once our Zhou family separates, won't we Have those people had a chance?"

The Elder Zhou who asked the question was Zhou Guangqing, who was considered to be the oldest among all the Elder Zhou.

Zhou Guangqing is also an old man of the Zhou family who has experienced many family meetings. When Tan Qiu, the first generation foreign affairs elder of the Zhou family, proposed that he could use the Foundation Establishment Pill to attract talented monks from outside to join the Zhou family, all the monks of the Zhou family collectively opposed it. He has personally experienced the veto of opinions.

That's why he dared to stand up and question Zhou Yang's decision at this time, and dared to ask the doubts in his heart.

"Guangqing, these two questions of yours can actually be answered together."

"It is precisely because there has never been a family as prosperous as our Zhou family in the world of cultivating immortals in the boundless sand sea for two thousand years, so other families have not encountered the bottlenecks and difficulties our Zhou family is currently encountering, so there will be no separation. idea."

"But what I want to tell you is that any thousand-year-old clan that has been passed down for thousands of years and has monks in the golden core period, a large number of monks in the purple mansion, and monks who established the foundation, must have a main line and a branch line in the family!"

"And I want to correct one of your thoughts. Separating the family will not weaken the Zhou family. Instead, it will make the Zhou family more prosperous and powerful as time goes by!"

"You should keep in mind that no matter when you are, no matter where you are, you are all part of the Zhou family. As long as you have not committed any serious mistakes or done any evil things against the clan, no one, even me Even the Supreme Elder has no right to deprive you of the honor of being monks of the Zhou family, depriving you of this surname that brings you glory!"

Zhou Yang looked solemnly at Zhou Guangqing who was full of doubts in the audience, and answered his questions with a loud voice.

After he finished speaking, the monks of the Zhou family in the hall were also taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but lower their heads and ponder the deep meaning of his words.

After a while passed like this, a monk from the Zhou family mustered up the courage to stand up and asked:

"Then dare to ask the patriarch, according to what you said just now, both the main line and the branch line will occupy the existing Lingshan of the family as their inherent territory, so what should be done with the various treasures on these Lingshan that originally belonged to the family, and the treasures in the existing family treasure house?" ?”

"Can we non-main branch cultivators who originally lived and practiced on these spiritual mountains have to move to other remote and barren low-level spiritual mountains to practice?"

Zhou Yang looked down and saw that the person who asked this question turned out to be the financial elder who reported the Zhou family's financial situation earlier.

From the financial report just now, he found that this person's business level is quite high, and what he said now shows that he has a keen sense of smell that ordinary people do not have.

It's a talent!

He nodded secretly in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "That's a good question. What I can explain to you here is that, except for the [Ning Yuan Fruit] tree, which is still owned by the family, the rest of the plants that have been planted Spiritual medicines, spirit fruits, and spiritual beasts that have been raised, the property rights within fifty years are still owned by the family, and after fifty years, they will be owned by the main line and branch lines."

"As for you monks who live on the Lingshan Mountain owned by the main branch, the right of residence can continue until your lifespan is exhausted and you die or fall, and future generations can no longer inherit it. Other families settled in Lingshan."

"Furthermore, for the fifth-level and fourth-level spiritual mountains owned by the main line, ten caves must be set aside for each of the spiritual mountains to be managed by the family, and used for the retreat of some clansmen who need to retreat to break through the realm."

"If there are low-level tribesmen who want to live on the Lingshan of the main line and branch line, they can also negotiate with their patriarchs, or use Lingshi and family contribution points as rent, or rent on behalf of workers to help farm and raise spirits. Beasts in exchange for the right to live."

"There are also those family elders who are unwilling to establish branches after successful foundation establishment. They can also build caves and settle on any spiritual mountain owned by the main branch and branch. This is the prerogative of the family elders."

"The last is the disposal of the treasures in the family's existing treasury. For these treasures, all treasures above the fourth level will be transferred into it after the family inheritance treasure house is completed, and its ownership still belongs to the family. If there are family monks who want to exchange them, they can ask the patriarch Apply for exchange."

"Treasures below Tier 4 are still stored in the ordinary treasure house and managed by the family treasure house. The rules for exchanging treasures remain the same."
