I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 265: The Unexpected Purple Mansion

When Lin Xuqian made his breakthrough, there was someone who had some thoughts in his mind.

It was Lin Xusi.

It so happened that Lin Xuqian was born to Xiao Qian, while Lin Xuqian was born to Xiao Wei. When they were initially building their foundations, Lin Xuqian succeeded while his mother Xiao Qian failed. This made him feel uneasy. Later, he forcefully attempted to build his foundation, but failed. Eventually, he successfully built his foundation with the help of Foundation Building Pills.

This time, when he saw Lin Xuqian obtaining spiritual liquid before him once again, he felt even more uneasy.

Of course, it wasn't because of the contribution points. Over the years, he had been stationed between several mines, and to be honest, he had accumulated quite a few contribution points. However, compared to Lin Xuqian, it was far from enough. He had no doubt about this.

What made him feel uneasy was that he couldn't exchange for it this time, and it would be even more difficult next time.

Over the years, he had also fathered many children, some of whom were already capable of Foundation Building. However, relying on his children to accumulate enough contribution points for Foundation Building Pills would take too long. He would have to personally intervene, but if he gave one, he would have to give to the others as well. His contribution points would then be insufficient, and exchanging for spiritual liquid would be even more distant.

Thinking about the future, when Lin Xuqian became the Purple Mansion, he would still be at the Foundation Building stage. How could he accept this?

Even Lin Yuanwu, who was much younger and already a Purple Mansion, didn't have any thoughts about it. After all, the difference in aptitude was there. But with Lin Xuqian, the two of them were not much different.

Now, he was stationed at a second-grade spiritual vein in the Lin family. He had also received news that Lin Xuqian had started seclusion. For some reason, he made up his mind and also began secluding himself.

Although it was a second-grade spiritual vein, he thought that maybe becoming a Purple Mansion would be fate for his three spiritual roots. He didn't believe that his luck could be so bad.

After three days, Lin Xuqian, who had been in seclusion in the main vein of the Lin family, walked out with a pained expression.

It was clear without saying that he had failed.

"Ah." Lin Xuqian sighed heavily, but for a while, he didn't know what to say.

On the contrary, Lin Qing and the others comforted him. It wasn't until half a day later that Lin Xuqian felt slightly better and talked about his breakthrough.

At first, everything went smoothly, but later on, it was as if there was an insurmountable barrier in his body that prevented him from crossing it no matter what. He made several attempts, but all ended in failure. In the end, his spiritual power was depleted, and he could only end it in disappointment.

Hearing Lin Xuqian's words, Lin Qing understood that it was because of his aptitude.

The aptitude of three spiritual roots was still too weak for the Purple Mansion. There was nothing to regret about this. It was the norm in the cultivation world. If it were so easy to become a Purple Mansion, wouldn't there be Purple Mansions everywhere now? Only those who succeeded were considered extraordinary.

Seeing Lin Xuqian's failure, his younger brothers Lin Xuming and Lin Xutai also felt a shadow in their hearts, as if they had seen their own fate.

What surprised everyone was that Lin Xusi actually flew back to the Lin family mountain one day.

Since the incident at the Cold Iron Mine, Lin Qing had rarely seen Lin Xusi. This child had always been stationed outside and rarely returned home. Lin Qing sometimes couldn't even remember him.

But this time, Lin Qing was taken aback when he returned, as Lin Xusi had already become a Purple Mansion.

"Are you saying that you made a breakthrough on the second-grade spiritual vein without using spiritual liquid?" Lin Qing couldn't believe what Lin Xusi said as soon as he saw him.

Lin Xusi repeated, "Father, that's right! At that time, I had a feeling that when my opportunity came, I would simply go into seclusion. Who could have imagined that I would succeed in seclusion?"

As he spoke, Lin Xusi's voice grew louder and he became increasingly happy. Especially when he saw the surprised expressions of others, he became even more excited.

After finishing his words, Lin Xusi glanced at Lin Xuqian. Lin Xuqian remained calm, which made him even happier. Today, he experienced the feeling of when Lin Xuqian was only at the Qi Refining stage and he was at the Foundation Building stage.

As for what he said about the opportunity arriving, it was actually an excuse he made up. He couldn't possibly say that he went into seclusion because he heard that Lin Xuqian had started his seclusion.

Looking at Lin Xusi, Lin Qing couldn't react for a while.

It was like a hammer hitting from the east, but unexpectedly, a big surprise came from the west. This was what Lin Qing was thinking at the moment, it was quite fantastical.

Just when he was comforting Lin Xuqian, who had just failed in his breakthrough, Lin Xusi gave him such a big surprise.

At this moment, the Lin family members who had reacted congratulated Lin Xusi.

"Xusi, congratulations on your breakthrough," Lin Xuqing said.

After Lin Xuchang and Lin Xuzhe died, Lin Xuqing became the eldest in the Lin family, so he directly called Lin Xusi by his name.

Upon hearing Lin Xuqing's words, Lin Xusi smiled, "Thank you, Xuqing brother. To be honest, I didn't expect it myself."

"Congratulations, Xusi brother," Lin Xuming and Lin Xutai also said.

"Congratulations, Uncle Xusi." The younger generation of the same generation also congratulated him endlessly, and Lin Xusi responded with a smile.

But when he glanced at Lin Xuqian, Lin Xuqian had never congratulated him. Seeing Lin Xusi's gaze, how could Lin Xuqian not understand? At this moment, his heart felt as if he had eaten a bowl of seasoning, it was quite unpleasant, but he still clasped his hands and said, "Congratulations, Brother Xusi, on your breakthrough."

"Haha, thank you, thank you." Lin Xusi smiled and replied.

Today, he was extremely happy, and only he could experience this feeling.

One was the joy of breaking through the Purple Mansion stage, needless to say, it would be a whole new world in the future. But this alone couldn't make him so happy. What truly made him happy was the attitude of the people around him.

Although he was not weak in strength before, he was somewhat invisible in the Lin family. But now, it was completely different.

He particularly enjoyed this feeling of being praised. Mortals like to be praised, and cultivators are no exception. It is human nature.

At this moment, Lin Qing thought about many things and looked at his son. He patted Lin Xusi's shoulder, and Lin Xusi immediately became serious. Lin Qing said, "Xusi, I am very happy that you have broken through the Purple Mansion stage, and I am proud of you. But remember, breaking through is a joyous occasion, but you must not be impatient or restless. Keep your heart calm and continue to cultivate diligently in the future."

"Thank you, Father, for your guidance. Xusi will keep it in mind," Lin Xusi said calmly, but there was still some excitement in his words, which anyone could hear.

Lin Qing nodded and didn't say much. No one can remain calm immediately after breaking through the Purple Mansion stage, it is human nature.

The news of Lin Xusi's breakthrough caused a stir in the Lin family, but it did not spread outside. With more and more Purple Mansion stage cultivators in the Lin family, Lin Qing did not need to intimidate others, and he didn't want to constantly shock other cultivators from the Zhao Kingdom. It would be meaningless.

After asking Lin Xusi, he still wanted to stay at the mining site.
