Each family gets five spirit stones a month, and a total of nine people died. In the future, the monthly expenses will increase by nearly fifty spirit stones, which means more than six hundred spirit stones a year.
This took up almost half of the family's annual income, and after this consumption, the remaining spirit stones have now been used up from the family's stored assets.
This time, the ancestor spared no expense to appease his young men.
Those disciples were shocked by the generosity of the ancestor, but at the same time they were a little jealous.
They also made contributions, but they did not die. Does that mean the family cannot give them any reward
As expected, the Feng Family Patriarch continued, "Each of the clan members and disciples who performed outstandingly this time will have the opportunity to practice in the Tomb in the back mountain for a month."
As soon as the Feng family's ancestor finished speaking, the main disciples and heads of each branch who stayed behind were stunned for a moment, and then they all showed expressions of great joy on their faces.
The Feng family's practice method follows the Yin and cold path. Although they can practice normally by just breathing in spiritual energy, it would be smoother if they could use the Yin and cold energy naturally generated between heaven and earth.
This is also the reason why the Feng family has been entrenched here. This place is an ancient burial site, and the yin energy is particularly strong and abundant.
Especially inside the Yin tomb in the back mountain, which is where the Yin energy is the strongest and is also a forbidden area for the Feng family.
In previous years, only Feng Zai Yu, the current head of the family, and the two ancestors could enter and practice at will.
Other disciples are either core disciples who are being trained by the family or those who have made great contributions to the family. Only then can they get a chance to enter as a reward, and each time it only lasts seven days.
This time, it lasted a full month, which was unimaginable at any time before.
“Zaiyu, you can count them later. For all the disciples who risked their lives for the family this time, the opportunity can only be used by them personally. It cannot be allocated or occupied by any family.
Well, a room that has performed outstandingly this time will be awarded a month of opportunity to use at their own discretion. There will be no limit on the number of times, but only one person can enter at a time, until the time is up."
After hearing this, Feng Zai Yu quickly said yes.
After the Feng family's ancestor glanced around and saw some people with secretly delighted looks on their faces, he continued speaking with a calm expression.
“The names of the disciples and that family reported in the Jade Report will be verified one by one by me and your three great masters. No one wants to take credit for it.
Don't even think about asking Zaiyu to plead for mercy. He is only the steward this time, and I will make the decision on everything. This time when the family crisis comes, I know who will be what. "
As soon as the Feng family's ancestor said this, Feng Zaiyu was the first one to feel relieved. He was afraid that the heads of the various families would secretly come to him to plead for mercy.
If he does not give this opportunity, he will definitely offend many people. Although he is not afraid of these as the main branch, it will still have a lot of impact on his management of the Feng family.
Unless he succeeds in building his foundation and becomes as powerful as the two ancestors, then he will have nothing to worry about.
At the same time, everyone in the hall had a smiling face, but after hearing the words of the Feng family ancestor, three or four people looked embarrassed.
They looked at the ancestor as if they wanted to say something, but seeing that the Feng family ancestor had no joy or sadness on his face, they did not dare to speak for a moment.
The ancestor of the Feng family arranged everything in one breath. He seemed not to notice the expressions of some people below and did not seem to want to pay any attention to them.
At the same time, he sneered in his heart.
“You really think I’m blind. I support you in your cultivation and provide you with food and drink all year round, but when the time comes, you have your own plans.
You are only thinking about how to preserve the strength of your own family. You even dare to shirk my personal orders in secret. If I don't warn you, you will really think that this Feng family is your Feng family.
I will take this opportunity to teach those of you branches who are unwilling to contribute a lesson. Watching his disciples making rapid progress in cultivation, humph!"
The ancestor of the Feng family was extremely dissatisfied with the several branches involved in this war.
Don't you want to retain your strength? Then I'll let you retain it well, and your cultivation will also remain in place for a long time.
For a moment, everyone in the Feng family had different expressions. Some were surprised, some were dissatisfied, some were silent, and some were anxious, but no one dared to step forward and question them.
On the other side, after hearing the words of the Feng family's ancestor, Li Yan and the others remained silent and just treated themselves as spectators.
Li Yan also admired the Feng family's methods in his heart. The old ones are still the most experienced.
"A cultivator who can control a family is indeed very skilled and considers every aspect of a matter very carefully.
Just the fact that he strictly prohibited the disciples from going to the Yin Tomb to practice, and only gave it to the disciples who really contributed, leaving no room for others, shows that the ancestor of the Feng family is very secretive in what he does. "
Although Li Yan didn't know what the so-called tomb behind the mountain mentioned by the ancestor of the Feng family was, he could tell from the expressions and reactions of the Feng family disciples.
Even the dumbest person would know that it is a great place that is extremely helpful for cultivation.
In a place like this, if an opportunity is awarded to a disciple, and if this disciple is very powerful in the clan, then of course everything will be fine and no one will dare to plot against him.
But if this person has no power or influence, then whether he can use this opportunity is another matter.
If the elders of his tribe asked him to take it out and give some time to the rest of the people, what could he say
Even secret robbery is not impossible to happen, because the arm cannot twist the thigh.
The Feng Family Patriarch was the stronger leg. His words blocked all other people's ideas. After the Feng Family Patriarch finished speaking, he did not want to give the people below time to discuss, but changed the subject.
"In the previous battle, a powerful ghost escaped. Today, Elder Fang from the Falling Star Valley has come to help.
So, after discussing with Elder Fang just now, I plan to ask him to take action again, and then help the Feng family to thoroughly clean up the area around the tomb of the three-headed underworld ghost in the Yin Tomb in the back mountain.
Therefore, in the next things, the disciples of each house will still have a chance, and those who perform outstandingly will still receive the previous rewards. Now let’s make specific arrangements... "
Feng Zai Yu, who had been standing on the side with his hands hanging down, suddenly felt something in his heart when he heard Shi's words about cleaning the tomb in the back mountain.
He finally understood why the ancestor had dared to say that he would provide spiritual stones to the families of those deceased disciples within ten years.
"So this is an opportunity to expand the range of the Yin Tomb. Now that the lairs of these three Yinsi ghosts have been incorporated into the formation, it should be no problem to condense twenty 'Ghost Evil Pearls'.
By then, even if I only sell ten, I can at least get more than 10,000 low-level spirit stones in exchange."
Regarding matters related to the "Ghost Demon Pearl", only the head of the main line and the two ancestors know about it. This is also a major source of spirit stones for the Feng family.
In the past, every year, the two ancestors would secretly condense two "Ghost Demon Pearls" and sell them. It was no problem to sell one for 1,300 low-level spirit stones.
The "Ghost Demon Pearl" is condensed from extremely yin energy. Ordinary mortals, let alone coming into contact with it, will die suddenly within a day if they live within a dozen miles of it as the extremely yin cold energy enters their bodies.
Even if you are a cultivator, you must be in the middle stage of foundation building or above before you dare to touch this thing directly with your hands.
Even for a cultivator like Feng Zai Yu who has reached the great perfection of the Qi Condensation Stage, if the "Ghost Demon Pearl" is placed in front of him, he will flee as quickly as possible.
He might not have enough time to refine the extremely yin energy emitted by the "Ghost Demon Pearl", and the spiritual power in his body would soon be blocked, causing him to fall into a coma.
But this thing is very useful for cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage who practice evil techniques. The speed of practice will be greatly increased, and it can be of some help even to cultivators in the early Golden Core stage.
In addition, the "Ghost Demon Pearl" is also very valuable to alchemists and weapon refiners who are in contact with underground fire all year round. It can effectively prevent the fire poison in the underground fire from entering the body.
In the alchemy and refining room formed by the underground fire veins, as long as there is a cultivator who has reached the sixth level of Qi Condensation, placing this thing inside will greatly dissolve the fire poison in the air and help prolong the time for alchemy and refining.
Therefore, the demand for "Ghost Evil Pearl" in the outside world is also very huge.
However, not many "Ghost Demon Pearls" can be condensed. One reason is that the method to condense the "Ghost Demon Pearls" is special and has always been kept secret, and is usually passed down from one generation to another.
The "Ghost Demon Pearl" is not formed by simply gathering negative energy and condensing it into a ball. It requires a separate technique to be refined.
We must eliminate all the negative influences on emotions such as bloodthirstiness, cruelty, murder, violence, etc. from the Yin energy.
At the same time, it is also necessary to purify some of the unconscious wronged souls and resentments contained in it one by one, and finally the method of condensation can be performed.
This is no longer something that can be found in the inheritance of an ordinary sect. Ninety-nine percent of the practitioners are very careful about the skills they have learned, and this is the fundamental reason why many skills are eventually lost.
The first generation ancestor of the Feng family obtained an ancient cultivator’s cave and inherited all of the other party’s skills, which laid the foundation for the family to branch out on its own.
This opportunity includes the advanced technique used by ancient cultivators to condense the "Ghost Evil Pearl". This matter is also a top secret of the Feng family, and only the current ancestor and the head of the family know about it.
Even when dealing with external parties, the ancestor of the Feng family would always change the appearance of the coin and be extremely careful when selling it.
It will not be sold again until a long time has passed.
Although the "Ghost Demon Pearl" is precious, it is not unique to the Feng family. Some large alchemy sects also have some of it on the market, but it is still priced out of stock.
If that’s the case, why is the Feng family still not considered wealthy
Condensing the "Ghost Demon Pearl" is very time-consuming for the cultivator itself, and it takes up a lot of time for cultivation. No cultivator is willing to spend a long time on this.
Secondly, according to the strength of the Feng family, they can only condense the "Ghost Demon Pearl" for use by cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage. They are unable to condense higher levels.
Once the level is restricted, the value of the "Ghost Evil Pearl" will naturally be greatly reduced.
The third is that even if the ancestor of the Feng family wanted to condense the "Ghost Evil Pearl" day and night, he couldn't do it.
The most important thing to condense the "Ghost Demon Pearl" is to consume a large amount of extremely cold air in the surrounding area.
The "Ghost Evil Pearl" is condensed twice a year, which has already drawn away about half of the Yin Qi that has been opened up in the Yin tomb in the back mountain of the Feng family. If it continues to condense, the Feng family cultivators will not have to practice anymore.
As the Feng family had been cautious again and again, nothing had happened over the years, and no one had discovered that the Feng family had also mastered the method of condensing the "Ghost Demon Pearl".
In any case, usually only two are sold secretly in a year. The western part of the entire Lost Continent is extremely vast, and the ancestors of the Feng family often spend time crossing tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of miles, so few people would think of the Feng family.
This time, the tombs of three foundation-building ghosts from the underworld were obtained at once, which was a once-in-a-century opportunity for the Feng family.
In the past, after conquering the tomb of a powerful ghost, the Feng family would have to recuperate for at least ten years, or even several dozen years, before they could gather strength again.
If a tomb can form the foundation of a ghost, you can tell how good the feng shui is and how strong the yin energy is there.
Although the Feng family was almost wiped out this time, overall, they will gain unexpected benefits from it.
