Rebuilding the Xiuxian family

In the past 100 years, the Li family has made great progress and improvement in all aspects.

First of all, it is strong in strength. For example, Jiang Fengwu successfully broke through the fusion and became the fifth fusion of the Li family. Li Chengsheng, Li Xianxun, Li Mingyao and others who followed her now have at least the cultivation of the middle stage of the refining void.

There are more than 30 refining void cultivators, and there are hundreds of transformation spirits.

Although the current Li family is not as good as the old forces such as the Zhang family, it is already worthy of the title of the fusion family.

With strong strength, the Li family's territory has also expanded a lot.

There are stronger forces in the west and south, and the Li family did not provoke them. However, there are many blank areas of forces in the sea area in the east, so the Li family built islands to control this place.

The current Li family's territory is small in the west and large in the east. In the west, there is only a 500-mile territory with Wanxian Mountain as the center, but it goes east for 2,000 miles. To the easternmost sea area, the north-south width is more than 1,000 miles.

But unfortunately, it was not able to merge directly with Wanling Island, and there were still some forces in between.

However, as the strength of the Li family continued to increase, they would sooner or later become vassals of the Li family, and then the territories would be connected. I believe that this day will not be too far away.

At present, the territory of the Li family can fully meet the development needs, but because the size of the territory will affect the luck, so after having strong strength, the Li family has been trying to expand the territory.

There are more powerful forces in the west and south, which are the existence that the Li family can provoke. The east has also expanded to the limit. Before the strength is further improved, the Li family has only one development direction, that is, the north!

The north is a very wide and undulating mountainous area. The Qianchong Mountains where the Li family is located are a small part of the remnant.

But it may be because it is at the junction of Dongzhou and Beiyu, so that the spiritual energy is very thin, and it is very difficult to develop.

Moreover, this mountain is like a continuous barrier, towering into the clouds, blocking the two continents. If you want to pass, you either have to detour to the sea, find a rugged path, or climb over the mountains.

Even if the cultivators have the means to move mountains and fill the sea, facing such a huge mountain, even the immortal realm can't move it.

Moreover, for so many years, no combined forces have been born in the thousands of mountains. At that time, even the demons could not be driven away, so how could they have the mind and spare energy to think about expanding to the north.

The Li family did not have the strength to change the world. They developed the mountains in the north, just to take advantage of the peaceful situation and to transfer a large number of cultivators to expand the territory.

The mountains are rugged and steep, and most of them are stone mountains. The Li family has developed them with great efforts, and they can't be used to plant spiritual objects. But for the family's luck, no matter how hard it is, many cultivators of the Li family did not give up.

It must be said that the Li family has been passed down for so many years. Although there are many problems big and small inside, it also has many excellent qualities.

For example, for the development of the family, the clansmen are very active, unlike some forces, who will not take action until they have gained enough benefits for their factions.

The newly developed northern stone mountain by the Li family is not suitable for the survival of cultivators, but it is a good place for mortals, because the spiritual energy is thin and it is difficult for monsters to be born, so they don’t have to worry about being attacked by monsters.

As for the lack of food, they can trade with the mortals in the mountain and sea plains in the south.

In order to control this place, the Li family moved 100,000 mortals and scattered them into villages and towns.

In addition to the strength and expansion of the territory, the Li family has also made considerable progress in other aspects. For example, in terms of cultivation skills, the Li family has cultivated many high-level technicians. Now nearly 15% of the spiritual objects in Shanyuanzhou are provided by the Li family!

Don’t think that this 15% is little. You must know that there are five combined forces in Shanyuanzhou now, including the Li family, Zhang family, He family, Qingzhu Sect, and Huoyang Sect.

Among these five families, the Li family is the weakest in strength and the weakest in foundation. It is already very remarkable to be able to occupy 15% of the market.

And this is all thanks to the many technicians cultivated by the Li family.

Especially in the spiritual beast, the Li family occupies the largest market, but it is a pity that beast control is a minor path after all, and there are not many cultivators who practice this path.

The rapid development of the Li family naturally caused a lot of trouble. After all, Shanyuanzhou is so big and has so many resources. The Li family took more, and the other families naturally had less.

Among them, the Zhang family hated the trap set by the Li family in the past, which led to its defeat by the three families of Qingzhu Sect. It had to give up the thousands of mountains and part of the ten thousand feet plain, and its territory shrank significantly.

So for so many years, except for not taking direct action, they have been targeting the Li family openly and secretly.

Specifically, the spiritual objects refined by the Li family were suppressed by the Zhang family and could not enter the fairy cities and markets owned by the Zhang family. If some of the spiritual objects of the Li family were not cheap and good, and were deeply loved by the casual cultivators, they would not be able to maintain a market share of 15%.

In addition, when the Li family cultivators were training outside, they would be targeted and killed as long as they met the Zhang family cultivators.

These piles and pieces of hatred accumulated one by one, and sooner or later, a life-and-death battle would start between the Li family and the Zhang family.

The reason why it hasn't erupted yet is entirely because of the Li family's forbearance and concession.

There is no other way, who made the Li family lack strength and skills?

Fortunately, the Zhang family has not recovered from the huge losses hundreds of years ago, and has no confidence to take the initiative to attack the Li family's Wanxian Mountain.

Moreover, the Li family has also pulled in an external aid, that is, the Huoyang Sect!

The two families did not have much conflict to begin with, and the relationship between the two sides became closer as the Li family deliberately made friends.

In fact, the Li family knew that if the Zhang family really wanted to take action, the Huoyang Sect would not be able to do it directly, and the Li family would have to pay some price to persuade them.

The reason why they made a close alliance gesture was just to make the Zhang family more cautious.

So now the Li family and the Zhang family have many conflicts, but no one has publicly torn their faces.

…

Wanxian Mountain, Shuanglong Valley.

After consolidating her cultivation, Jiang Fengwu’s first thing after coming out of seclusion was to further improve the family’s mountain protection formation.

When she was still in the Refining Void Realm, she combined the power of all the formation masters in the family and crossed the realm to arrange a seventh-level mountain protection formation.

Now Jiang Fengwu is already in the Fusion Realm, and her formation cultivation has made great progress. Of course, she wants to continue to improve the mountain protection formation. If she can deduce the eighth-level formation, it would be great, because this is also part of her practice.

Moreover, this mountain protection formation was originally created by Jiang Fengwu by combining multiple formations, and she was very familiar with it.

By then, even if the formation cannot be upgraded, the formation can be perfected!

Jiang Fengwu spent 20 to 30 years to upgrade the Star Formation to the seventh-grade extreme, and consumed a large number of spiritual objects during the period.

Many clan members complained about this, thinking that it would be better to use so many spiritual objects on themselves instead of strengthening the mountain protection formation, and maybe they could break through.

"Ancestor Jiang, can the mountain protection formation be upgraded to the eighth grade?" asked the clan leader Li Taiyao.

"Alas!"

Jiang Fengwu sighed and said, "Yes, I have the confidence, but it will take a long time and a lot of resources."

How could Jiang Fengwu not know the complaints of the clan members?

It only took 30 years this time, but it would take at least two or three hundred years to upgrade to the eighth grade, and the resources required would be even more!

By then, the family might really complain.

"Ancestor, you don't have to worry too much. As long as you have confidence, the family will definitely support you with all their strength." Li Taiyao said with a firm look.

Jiang Fengwu shook his head and said, "Let's do this for now. It will be better to do this when my realm is improved."

In fact, after Jiang Fengwu perfected the mountain protection star formation, the attack power and defense power were at least five times stronger. If it is fully activated, even facing the attack of a Mahayana cultivator, it can withstand an hour.

And there is another effect that is beneficial to the entire Wanxian Mountain and all the clansmen, that is, it can absorb a large amount of star power through the formation and transform it into spiritual energy!

The transformed spiritual energy can not only maintain the daily use of the formation, but the rest can increase the concentration of spiritual energy in Wanxian Mountain.

And according to Jiang Fengwu's calculations, it only takes five or six hundred years to run the spiritual energy in Wanxian Mountain to a higher level!

Five or six hundred years is nothing for a combined family. The time required for passive promotion by accumulating spiritual stones and letting the spiritual veins absorb slowly is not much faster than this.

But this does not cost spiritual stones at all.

"The tribesmen are short-sighted and don't know the benefits of the mountain protection formation, but the elders and I know it in our hearts, so everyone supports you to continue to improve the star formation." Li Taiyao continued to persuade.

However, Jiang Fengwu has made up her mind. The complaints of the tribesmen are one reason, and more importantly, she feels that her realm is not enough. Even if she can barely deduce it, there are still many problems. It is better to do it in one step, which can also save a lot of spiritual objects for the family.

"I have made up my mind, you don't have to persuade me anymore."

Li Taiyao saw this and wanted to say something, but finally closed his mouth.

Jiang Fengwu turned back to the cave and began to summarize the experience of the past few decades and cultivate his own Dharma image.

Time passed, and one day more than ten years later.

A small spiritual storm appeared in Wanxian Mountain, and it was Li Chengshuo who was in retreat who triggered it.

"How many years has it been since Shuoer broke through the fusion, how come he broke through to the middle stage of the fusion so quickly?" When Jiang Fengwu came out of retreat and knew about this, he couldn't help but think of Li Zhirui's inexplicable worry at the time.

"Could it be that the opportunity that Shuo'er got at the beginning really has some huge hidden dangers?"

But when she asked Li Chengshuo, she didn't think there was any problem.

And Jiang Fengwu had also personally investigated that Li Chengshuo had no hidden dangers or drawbacks in terms of realm, cultivation, or Dharma, which made her feel a little relieved.

In the end, there was no choice but to let Li Chengshuo pay more attention to himself, and if he found anything wrong, he would come to him immediately.

And one day, Li Chengsheng left Wanxian Mountain and embarked on a journey to find a breakthrough and fusion.

Originally, he refined that trace of the sun's true fire, and the road to fusion was unobstructed, but Li Chengsheng always felt that something was missing and not perfect enough.

So he chose to go out and try to make up for the last bit of deficiency.

Not only Li Chengsheng, Li Xianxun, Li Mingyao and others have left the family one after another to find an opportunity to break through the fusion.

...

Kunlun State.

Li Zhirui came out of a secret realm in a dusty state, with a tired look on his face.

This trip to the secret realm was really dangerous.

It can be said that this is the most dangerous secret realm he has experienced in all these years!

And the one who caused all this was a madman who had lost his mind and had lost his mind.

I don’t know what kind of skills this madman practiced, but he could actually bewitch people.

Obviously, they are all combined and refining cultivators. Their Dao hearts are not as solid as a rock, but at least ordinary means cannot bewitch them.

But in front of that madman, few people can resist!

He bewitched a large number of cultivators, constantly provoked everyone in the secret realm, accumulated conflicts, and finally triggered a war that affected the entire secret realm!

At the beginning of the disaster, Li Zhirui met the mad cultivator.

Just one encounter, he felt a little dazed. If it weren't for the crazy beating of his spiritual sense, reminding him that there was a huge danger, Li Zhirui might really fall into it.

After realizing that something was wrong, Li Zhirui immediately hid in the space and avoided the other party.

At that time, Li Zhirui felt extremely horrified. How could there be such a person!

He didn't find that the other party used his magical powers, but just glanced at him, and then Li Zhirui felt as if he was bewitched.

Li Zhirui stayed in the space for three whole days, and confirmed again and again that there were no hidden dangers in himself before he dared to leave, and became very careful.

At first, Li Zhirui didn't notice anything wrong until he saw the bodies of monks and traces of a large number of battles frequently. Then he realized something was wrong.

There were casualties in the secret realm in the past, but it was impossible for so many. After all, the primary purpose of entering the secret realm was to find spiritual objects or to experience the monsters in the secret realm, not to fight each other.

Then Li Zhirui encountered a war involving hundreds of monks. This small scale was not enough to surprise him.

But when he saw the crazy monk he met at the beginning, controlling these monks to fight each other like puppets, he felt endless chill in his heart.

It was like a puppet show among mortals. Hundreds of cultivators of refining and fusion were puppets in his hands and could only act according to his will.

Li Zhirui turned around and left without thinking. Such a terrifying existence was not something he could provoke. Anyway, those monks had nothing to do with him, so there was no need to show off to save people.

Li Zhirui even suspected that this person was not possessed by the devil as other monks said, but awakened the memory of his previous life!

Judging from his methods, he was probably a terrifying old monster in his previous life.

Li Zhirui ran all the way with his head down, and stopped only when he felt he was far enough away from him.

In the following time, in addition to searching for spiritual objects in the secret realm, Li Zhirui hid in the space, waiting for the secret realm teleportation array to open.

There was no other secret realm experience that made him so eager to leave as this one.
