I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 149: Heavenly Water Spirit Root

Time flew by, and Lin Qing was already 150 years old.

It had been thirty years since he broke through to the mid-stage of Foundation Building. At this point, Lin Qing finally broke through to the late-stage of Foundation Building.

Considering his dual spirit roots, his progress was neither slow nor fast, but rather normal. He spent a lot of time on the bottleneck of the late-stage, but he successfully overcame it. This is the advantage of talent. For Lin Qing, spending some time on the bottleneck may be a formidable obstacle for cultivators with three or four spirit roots. The late-stage of Foundation Building, as the last threshold before the Violet Mansion, has stopped countless people.

After breaking through to the late-stage, coupled with the already broken-through Purple Golden Toad, Lin Qing can be said to have formidable strength and the ability to fight against those in the late-stage of Foundation Building.

Just after breaking through the late-stage of Foundation Building, it can be divided into the seventh layer of Foundation Building. There are still the eighth and ninth layers to go. When the spiritual power cannot be increased any further on the ninth layer, it can be considered as a complete Foundation Building. After that, one must consider the Violet Mansion.

Currently, Lin Qing is still some distance away from this. With his talent, although it will take some time to reach the complete Foundation Building, there are no major obstacles.

Moreover, his talent is about to improve again.

After breaking through Foundation Building, the first thing Lin Qing did was to set up a third-grade defensive formation for the Lin family.

Over the years, Lin Xuzhe had already gathered the materials outside, but while the materials for the defensive formation were easy to find, the materials for the Foundation Building Pill were still difficult to find, even more so than before.

Lin Qing did not forget about the matter of the younger generation of the family breaking through Foundation Building. He had Lin Xuzhe collect materials for the defensive formation while also searching for the materials for the Foundation Building Pill. However, after Lin Qing obtained those three Foundation Building Grasses, Lin Xuzhe had not obtained a single one in all these years. There were a few other materials, but this one was extremely difficult to find.

Lin Qing also understood Lin Xuzhe's difficulties and did not rush him. After all, it wouldn't help.

Lin Xuzhe had even used his relationship with Qin Rou, but he still couldn't obtain a single Foundation Building Grass. In the current situation, this grass was like a priceless treasure, hidden away by various forces. As for the spiritual medicine garden planted by the Lin family themselves, the age of the herbs there was far from enough.

For now, let's not think about these things. Lin Qing began to set up the third-grade formation.

His experience in formations had already reached the third-grade over the years.

[Formation Master: Third-grade Low Rank (232,847/2,000,000)]

Every time he looked at the two million experience points, Lin Qing could only think of three words: "***".

The biggest difference between the third-grade formation and the second-grade formation was that it required the use of mineral essence or various gems. For example, the defensive formation he was setting up required the use of Purple Copper Essence derived from a piece of Purple Copper Ore. Just this piece of Purple Copper Essence alone required twenty thousand spirit stones.

This was obtained by Lin Xuzhe by chance at an auction. Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult to find with spirit stones.

Speaking of which, this was also the advantage of the family. If Lin Qing were alone, it would take who knows how long to find these materials. Of course, if he were alone, in a certain sense, he wouldn't need this material.

The gains and losses were not easy to explain.

But in the cultivation world, when high-level cultivators either establish a sect or a family, having influence undoubtedly outweighs being alone. No one is foolish.

With this mineral essence and other materials in hand, Lin Qing began to set up the formation.

This third-grade formation would take at least half a month to set up.

In fact, Lin Qing made a lot of preparations for this formation. After setting up this formation, it would primarily protect the second-grade high-grade main vein of the Lin family's mountain. At the same time, the formation's range would cover the Lin family's gathering place and the Lin family's city, capable of withstanding early-stage cultivators of the Violet Mansion.

While setting up this formation, Lin Qing also set up many other types of formations in the Lin family's gathering place.

It's like a soundproof array, a restriction that limits divine consciousness. He has set up some small restrictions to enter the cave mansion. Although his Lin family is not currently scattered, they must have what they should have, and even more powerful than other markets.

Speaking of various restrictions, they are also a kind of formation. After Lin Qing obtained the notes of the ancestors of the Zhao family in Bilin River and the books of the Wu family in the cemetery, he has mastered a lot in this field, so it is not difficult to set up.

In the past half month, the formation has been set up. Lin Qing tested it and with his cultivation at the late Foundation Building stage, it is impossible for him to break it. It is a genuine third-order formation.

But...

Looking at the empty Lin family, Lin Qing feels somewhat helpless. The formation is good, but no one is coming.

Wuji Sect, you deserve to die. Lin Qing curses inwardly.

If it weren't for this Wuji Sect, their Lin family would not have developed into what it is now. Linjia Mountain here is definitely not like this.

Standing on the flying boat, Lin Qing sighed as he circled Linjia Mountain several times. At this rate, he didn't know when it would be able to develop.

The Lin family, which has never prospered, has left Lin Qing with no place to implement many of his ideas.

Take it slow. Now that the late Foundation Building stage has been breakthrough and the formation has been set up to ensure the safety of Linjia Mountain, Lin Qing has also relaxed a lot. He has been intensively coordinating with Xiao Qian and Xiao Wei day and night, mainly for the improvement of his spiritual roots.

Lin Qing can now truly feel the benefits of improving his spiritual roots. The improvement of his spiritual roots is incomparable to before.

Sometimes, Lin Qing envies those who are born with spiritual roots. In a sense, they enter the path of cultivation as if they are flying on a plane, while dual spiritual roots are like high-speed trains, triple spiritual roots are like ordinary trains, quadruple spiritual roots are like horse carriages, and quintuple spiritual roots are like walking on foot. As for mortals, they are like being born with chains.

The gap between them is indeed too big.

The most crucial thing is that this gap is innate and extremely difficult to change.

A heavenly spiritual root is truly heaven's favorite.

Countless generations in the cultivation world have lamented this, and even senior experts have tried to change this situation, but undoubtedly, they have no way. Having spiritual roots to cultivate is a gift from heaven, and it is a delusion to expect more.

Fortunately, Lin Qing can still change his own spiritual roots now. In terms of improving his formation experience, this is the greatest significance brought to him by the Goldfinger.

In the past half year, Lin Qing's wind and thunder spiritual roots have reached the peak of perfection, and the words "Integrated Union" have appeared.

[Wind Spiritual Root: Peak of Perfection (150,000/150,000) (Can be Integrated Union)]

[Thunder Spiritual Root: Peak of Perfection (150,000/150,000) (Can be Integrated Union)]

Looking at the words on the Goldfinger, Lin Qing chose Integrated Union without hesitation.

There was a tingling sensation that touched his soul, and after a moment, the wind and thunder spiritual roots successfully Integrated Union.

[Water Spiritual Root: Inferior (0/1,000)]

Looking at the words "Integrated Union" on the Goldfinger panel, Lin Qing was somewhat surprised. He thought that the wind and thunder spiritual roots, which are known as extraordinary spiritual roots in the cultivation world, would Integrated Union into a more powerful spiritual root, but it turned out to be an ordinary water spiritual root.

No, although this water spiritual root is ordinary, if Lin Qing is not mistaken, he now only has this one water spiritual root, which means he is a cultivator with a heavenly spiritual root.
