Family Cultivation: I can upgrade my magic weapon

In order to solve the problem of the fourth-order formation, Chen Xianming convened a clan meeting to discuss this matter.

"Our island protection formation is a second-order upper-grade Four-Elephant Azure Dragon Formation. It has been arranged for more than 220 years. It was originally customized by the Grand Master Taixu who invited a foundation-building ancestor of the Zhang family."

"This formation has gone through a hundred years of wind and rain, and has been repaired and maintained during this period. It has accompanied my Chen family for a long time and is older than me."

"Now, as the family's foundation grows, it is not enough to continue to rely on this formation to protect the clan. This is not a solution. The island protection formation must be upgraded by one or two grades."

"This is also what I called you to discuss this time. We must do this as soon as possible and cannot delay."

After Chen Xianming finished speaking slowly, everyone was silent for a while, thinking about their own things, and realized that the formation of Lingjian Island should indeed be upgraded.

It is not necessary to continue to use a set of second-order formations to protect the third-order spiritual veins. At least a new formation must be added.

It is true that there are two demon-killing cannons on Lingjian Island. According to Chen Qingyun and the clan leader, this magic weapon can easily kill a Purple Mansion peak cultivator, which is powerful in itself.

However, the power of the demon-killing cannon is at best limited to those below the Jindan stage.

If a Jindan cultivator attacks Lingjian Island, magic weapons and weapons below the fourth stage will be dwarfed by the powerful ones.

Knowing the pros and cons, Chen Daoren was the first to speak: "Since we want to upgrade the formation, we can keep the Four Symbols Azure Dragon Formation and arrange a fourth-level formation."

"A third-level spiritual vein can only arrange a fourth-level formation. Our family's spiritual vein is currently a third-level top-grade formation, which can fully meet this requirement."

"But this fourth-level formation is much more expensive. It cannot be bought in ordinary markets. We must find someone from the five major sects to refine it."

As soon as Chen Daoren finished speaking, Chen Daolin took over and said: "The price of a fourth-level formation is not low. Even if there are finished products for sale, at least 100,000 spirit stones are required. Can the family currently take out so many spirit stones at one time?"

"Don't worry about the spirit stones."

Chen Xianming said: "To be honest, the family currently has more than 1.1 million spirit stones in reserve. The problem we have to solve now is that we have spirit stones, but where should we get the formation."

When everyone heard this, they were not too surprised to know that the family had so many spirit stones, so they started to discuss it.

Chen Xianming continued, "The Zhang family has the highest attainment in formations, and the clan leader Zhang Tianling, and I have some friendship with him."

"As far as I know, even if his attainment in formations has improved a year ago, he can only refine a third-grade upper-grade formation at present. If he wants to arrange a fourth-grade formation, he can only do nothing."

"So it seems that we need to start with the five major sects to purchase the formations this time."

Chen Xianming expressed his thoughts. This time, if the Zhang family is not capable of refining a fourth-grade formation, then we can only ask for help from others.

When they heard that they had to find the five major sects, many people present were a little embarrassed.

The five major sects have stood in the star sea for many years. How likely is it to ask one of them to come forward and refine a set of fourth-grade formations for a purple mansion family?

Chonglou, who is the weakest in strength, may not necessarily accept this refining commission for these hundreds of thousands of spirit stones.

In addition, the arrangement of the fourth-grade formation involves measurements in various places on Lingjian Island, and the formation must be customized according to the actual situation.

For formations below the fourth-level formation, cultivators who know some formations and refining techniques can arrange them by themselves according to the arrangement instructions.

However, when it comes to the fourth-level formation, it is a huge watershed. When arranging, a fourth-level formation master is needed.

Even if the Chen family buys a finished fourth-level formation, they are still not able to arrange the formation by themselves.

Therefore, when this matter really comes to fruition, problems will arise one after another.

Chen Daoren pondered for a moment after hearing this and thought of a solution.

"Among the five major sects, only Xingzong and Lingbaoshan have some connections with us. It depends on whether Qingfeng and Qingyun are willing to come forward."

"Qingfeng has become a disciple of the Red Spirit Patriarch. I believe that he can find a fourth-level formation master to make a formation for us through the Red Spirit Patriarch's connections. What do you think of this?"

After this was said, many people thought it was feasible.

At least from the perspective of master-disciple relationship, it is reasonable for the Red Spirit Patriarch to take care of Chen Qingfeng.

Chen Daoren knows a little bit about the art of formations. He thought about the cost of making a fourth-level formation and said.

"It takes a fourth-level formation master about a year to make a fourth-level formation."

"According to the calculation of the fourth-level low-grade formation, the material cost is also extremely expensive, estimated to be 60,000 to 70,000. In addition, about 20,000 labor costs need to be paid."

"And we are far away from the five major sects. It takes them thousands of miles to be busy on our island for a year. The construction cost has to be added. By then, the total cost of building the formation will definitely exceed 100,000 spirit stones."

"What you said is on point. This is also what we need to consider. However, as long as there is a formation master willing to take action, it is not a loss to spend more spirit stones."

Chen Xianming said with some emotion, considering the long-term development of the family.

"We have spirit stones and ways now. If we don't start to do it now, will we have to drag it on and leave this problem to future generations?"

"We should first find a way to solve the problems we can solve, so that the descendants can inherit the heritage we left behind, and each generation will be better than the previous one. Only in this way can the family prosper for a long time and last forever."

When Chen Xianming said the last part, the expectation in his tone was particularly strong.

Everyone present agreed with his words, and felt that the construction of the fourth-level formation should be completed in the next two or three years, and it really cannot be delayed.

As for whether to find Chen Qingyun or Chen Qingfeng, everyone started to discuss.

For Chen Qingyun, he can rely on Liu Zhilan, or even the connections made by Xu Yourong, to invite a fourth-level formation master to come out of the mountain in Lingbao Mountain.

However, in order to solve the sales problem of the white stone vein a few years ago, Chen Qingyun had already been bothered once, and Xu Yourong's connections were used.

This time, let's not talk about whether it is good to bother Chen Qingyun again, and whether it will be difficult.

For Xu Yourong, if he bothers him to do such a favor again, it is estimated that he will complain, and it will alienate the relationship between him and Chen Qingyun.

Chen Xianming, Chen Daoren, and Chen Daolin all thought of this, so they decided to ask Chen Qingfeng.

As the ruler of the Xinghai, Xingzong is well-known in the sea area, and there are many hidden talents in the sect, and there is no shortage of fourth-level formation masters.

Based on the master-disciple relationship with the Red Spirit Patriarch, it is easier to talk to Chen Qingfeng.

So, everyone discussed and came up with a result.

This time, they contacted Chen Qingfeng and talked about the fourth-level formation to see if there is any hope to get a fourth-level formation master from Xingzong to come out.

On the same day, Chen Xianming sent a message to Chen Qingfeng, mentioned this matter, and waited for a reply.
