The Longevity Family: Starting From The Branches And Leaves

Chapter 84: Li Yourong's Foundation Building Plan (Seeking to Continue Reading)

Returning home, little Ping'an, wearing a thick padded jacket, stumbled over.

Chen Ling smiled and picked him up, taking out toys such as a small drum, a grasshopper cage, and a bamboo woven carriage one by one.

He amused little Ping'an, making him laugh heartily.

He Yunxiu poured him a bowl of spiritual tea and brought it over, her clear autumn eyes filled with a sense of peace as she watched the father and son play, feeling at ease.

Taking the bowl, Chen Ling took a sip of tea.

Qingtang also brought out the steaming food from the kitchen.

The whole family was waiting for him to eat.

Chen Ling handed the newly bought food to He Yunxiu and smiled, "We'll add more dishes for lunch!"

"Second rank beast meat!" His divine sense swept over the storage bag handed to him by Chen Ling, and He Yunxiu exclaimed in surprise.

She was used to living frugally, and Chen Ling buying so much second rank beast meat at once, how many spirit stones would that cost?

It wasn't that she couldn't bear to spend the spirit stones, but it was her nature to be cautious. Even if she had spirit stones, she never dared to be extravagant.

Many of the clothes that little Ping'an wore were still sewn by her own hands.

But she also believed that Chen Ling now had the ability to let them live a good life.

Chen Ling smiled, "From now on, we'll have second rank beast meat every day at home, no need to worry!"

"Let's open a jar of spiritual wine to celebrate today."

Watching He Yunxiu happily walk towards the kitchen, Chen Ling felt a sense of satisfaction welling up in his heart.

He Yunxiu didn't have high expectations of him, but every woman deep down hoped that her husband would be successful.

Thinking back to when he failed in refining tools in the past, he was filled with self-blame.

But He Yunxiu never complained, only encouraging him to persevere.

For this woman, he still had genuine feelings in his heart.

...

In the afternoon, Shen Zhen returned from the market.

He brought back the land deed for the Black River Hollow that they had purchased.

Seeing the land deed, Chen Ling felt relieved.

Within a radius of ten li around the hollow, it would now belong to the Chen family.

Because it was located in a barren area, Shen Zhen only spent twenty middle-grade spirit stones to acquire it.

But there was a provision that the Chen family must develop the Black River Hollow within a year.

Afterwards, to avoid any unforeseen circumstances, Chen Ling had Shen Zhen arrange manpower and prepare everything that needed to be prepared. They would set off for the Black River Hollow in two days.

The Chen family still didn't have a flying cloud boat, so it would take quite some time to travel the two hundred plus li.

...

After dinner in the evening, Chen Ling distributed the pills he had bought today.

His wives all had joyful expressions on their faces.

But what they were looking forward to even more was which room Chen Ling would spend the night in tonight.

Chu Yu was about to give birth, and He Yunxiu had just become pregnant, so they could be ruled out.

The other three women were filled with anticipation.

Qin Yelian knew she couldn't compete with Li Yourong, so she had already joined forces with Qingtang in secret.

Whether Chen Ling went to his room or Qingtang's room, they would go together.

But after Chen Ling finished drinking the spiritual tea, he entered Li Yourong's room.

"Sister Yun, your husband respects you the most. Talk to him and see if we can draw lots in the future, so you don't have to go over there every day."

"Otherwise, it will take forever for me to get pregnant!"

Watching the soundproof array activate in the room, Qin Yelian pouted and smiled as she said to He Yunxiu.

"For this kind of thing, you have to figure it out yourself." He Yunxiu smiled and said, then she also picked up little Ping'an and walked towards her room.

Qin Yelian and Qingtang looked at each other.

Then they both went back to their rooms.

······.

"Why have you been going out so often recently? It's so secretive!" Chen Ling asked with a smile as they entered the room.

Li Yourong was folding clothes and when she saw Chen Ling come in, a hint of joy flashed in her beautiful eyes. Then she turned around and smiled, saying, "I'm about to prepare for Foundation Building. I still haven't found the Foundation Building pill, so now I have to go out to kill ferocious beasts, gather spirit stones, and buy the Foundation Building pill!"

"I've already thought about this with you! This is the Foundation Building pill with the second-grade dan pattern that I bought from Wanbao Tower today." Chen Ling said as she took out the pill bottle and handed it to Li Yourong.

Li Yourong's eyes immediately focused on the pill bottle, and she said with some disbelief, "Is this really the Foundation Building pill with the second-grade dan pattern?"

Chen Ling nodded calmly. The Foundation Building pill with the second-grade dan pattern can increase a cultivator's chance of successfully building their foundation by more than 60%.

Originally, with Li Yourong's Fire Seduction Spirit Body, even if it was a Foundation Building pill with the first-grade dan pattern, the success rate would be very high.

But Chen Ling wanted to ensure that nothing went wrong, so she chose the Foundation Building pill with the second-grade dan pattern.

As long as Li Yourong can successfully build her foundation, it's worth spending as many spirit stones as needed.

【Hint: Your wife Li Yourong's sense of belonging to her family has increased by 120%, and your Golden Incense Value has increased by 2.】

The prompt appeared on the panel.

Li Yourong looked at Chen Ling with gratitude, and in her eyes, which were as clear as autumn water, there was a deep affection.

Glancing at Chen Ling, her eyes filled with charm, her delicate jade hands quietly entwined around him.

······.

Li Yourong leaned against Chen Ling and said with a spring-like expression, "I want to try Foundation Building in a month. By then, I'll need my husband's help!"

Chen Ling nodded. At this moment, he felt as if his body had been emptied.

This was a situation that had never occurred since he entered the late stage of Qi Refining.

As Li Yourong's cultivation advanced, her seductive fire became stronger. This time, she could only hold on for the time it takes an incense stick to burn before being defeated.

It seems that the "Dragon Transformation Technique" of the Mortal Stage High-Grade is still somewhat inadequate.

Afterwards, the two discussed the preparations and precautions needed for Foundation Building.

······.

The sun in the sky emitted warm heat, and the cold wind of early spring still made people's faces ache.

"Master, Black River Hollow is ahead!"

Approaching noon, Chen Ling and dozens of Chen family members had traveled for more than an hour and finally arrived at Black River Hollow.

Meng Ping pointed to the deserted mountain hollow ahead, where a slowly flowing river was heading towards Chen Ling.

Looking at the surroundings, Chen Ling frowned.

The mountain hollow was rugged, bare, and occasionally shrouded in evil mist.

Although this place had already been included in the scope of the Star Sword Sect, it had not been developed, and there was still a lot of evil energy in the surroundings.

Fortunately, before setting off, Shen Zhen had prepared sufficient detoxification pills and a small-scale evil-warding formation.

"Everyone rest here for a moment, fill your stomachs, and then we'll start building our residence!" Chen Ling said to everyone.

Dozens of clan members sat down on the mountain path and took out dry rations to eat.

"For now, we can only take it step by step. I'll set up the Geomagnetic Sword Formation first, so even if a second-order ferocious beast appears, we'll have a way to deal with it. As for the Mist Illusion Formation later, I'll have to trouble Meng Daoist friend!" Chen Ling took out two formation discs and handed the Mist Illusion Formation disc to Meng Ping.

This second-grade mist formation was not difficult to comprehend. With Meng Ping's cultivation, he could master it within a day.

And he had the Earth attribute spiritual root, so when he used it, it would be twice the result with half the effort.

As for the Geomagnetic Sword Formation, it would be controlled by his father-in-law, after all, he had both the Gold and Wood spiritual roots.

Meng Ping cautiously took the formation disc and clasped his fists in response.

Chen Ling then handed "Detailed Explanation of the Mist Illusion Formation" to Meng Ping, asking him to comprehend it carefully.
