In a blink of an eye, more than a year passed in a hurry.

In the past year or so, dozens of families, large and small, in Linhai County have gradually recovered some vitality from the plagues and the border war six months ago.

Because of the continuous mining of the large-scale mixed spiritual material mine in the north, the entire Linhai County has shown a thriving scene.

Although only the three major building families are eligible to mine ores on the mines, the rest of the gas training families can also catch some oil and water behind these three major families.

As everything on the mine was on track, Qingyunmen began to hire a large number of people for mining.

As a result, some small family monks and casual cultivators in Linhai County flocked to this large mine, making the mine become very lively.

Of course, as long as there are more people, then there will be people with three teachings and nine streams, and there are many of them who are sneaky and slippery.

However, when the Qingyunmen Foundation Building cultivator killed several people who stole ore with thunder, no one dared to move their minds anymore, they only dared to work honestly.

And as more and more monks rushed to this mine from other places, they all needed to pass through Linhai County, making the originally desolate northern border immediately become lively.

So under the leadership of the Shen family, in collaboration with the Li family, the Du family, and other Qi-training families, they built another small market in the northern border of Linhai County near the mine.

The scale of this market is not large, only one-third the size of Linhai Square, and the construction is relatively simple, which can only be regarded as a trading place.

Its service targets are those monks in the mines and the monks who travel north and south.

However, although this market is relatively simple, but relying on the large mine nearby, it has attracted a lot of low-level monks to come, so the business is not bad.

Since the Shen family took the lead in provoking this matter, the Shen family was a prominent family in Linhai County, and the head of the Shen family held the post of county guard. Therefore, the Shen family directly accounted for 35 percent of the income of the town.

The Li family and the Du family each occupy 20% as the Zhuji family.

This border town is the first project that the Shen family led other families in Linhai County to build together after becoming a prominent family in Linhai County. It can bring nearly 2,000 spiritual stones to the Shen family every year.

As for the branch vein of the purple vein sand on the Shenjia mine, nearly 20 catties of third-order purple sand can be mined every year, which is equivalent to the annual income of 10,000 spiritual stones.

Therefore, when these two incomes are added up, the Shen family can now earn about 12,000 more Lingshi's income each year, which can be regarded as a solution to their urgent needs.

Although the family industry has continued to expand over the years, the family’s annual income has also increased significantly.

But as more and more people in the tribe, the family industry expanded more and more, all kinds of expenses have also become larger and larger, and it has been unable to make ends meet.

And for the past two decades, Shen Ruiling has been supporting the patriarch Shen Huanchi to take the last step and exchange many resources in the family for the spirit pills and spiritual objects needed by the patriarch's cultivation.

Therefore, although the Shen family seems to be infinitely beautiful at this time, the cultivation resources in the clan library are not as rich as imagined.

This was because the Shen family had obtained the resources in the secret vault left by the Zhou family, and in the Plagues and Evil Rebellion, they had obtained a large number of spirit stones in a short time by selling fire spirit pills.

Of course, although the wealth in the Shen family treasury is not as much as expected, the monthly salary that the Shen family can receive is much more than before.

It is because of getting more salaries and having sufficient training resources that the Shen clan's cultivation level can improve so quickly.

The overall strength of the family has been greatly improved in the short two to thirty years after the implementation of the New Deal.

At present, the Shen family has five foundation cultivators, 28 qi-training ninth-level clansmen, 46 late qi-training clansmen other than the ninth-level clansmen, 63 mid-qi qi-training clansmen, and early qi-training clansmen. Seventy-eight people.

...

In the cave mansion in Houshan, Shen Ruiling looked at the family's income and expenditure in recent years, as well as the people's cultivation status.

When he saw the data one by one, he couldn't help but feel relieved.

Today's family is much stronger than it was in the past, and it is a bit more confident in the face of the upcoming Lingnan turmoil.

Now the most important thing is to look at the patriarch!

Suddenly, Shen Ruiling, who was meditating, felt a burst of spiritual power, and the spiritual power on Yun Bifeng seemed to converge somewhere.

"Could it be!"

With surprise and joy in his heart, he immediately got up and swept out of the cave.

However, when he came to the back of the cave, he found that the spiritual power on Yunbi Peak did not converge in the cave where the patriarch retreats, but was constantly converging towards the Dan Pavilion on the Yuxiu stage.

"Four brothers?"

Shen Ruiling couldn't help but murmured, a touch of joy appeared on his face.

This kind of vision of the convergence of spiritual power can only appear when the foundation-building monks break through the bottleneck, so Shen Ruiling guessed that it was the fourth brother Shen Ruizhi who broke through the bottleneck in the middle of the foundation-building period.

It has been 20 years since Shen Ruizhi built the foundation. Now that he can find an opportunity for a breakthrough, Shen Ruiling is naturally happy for it.

After a brief joy, Shen Ruiling flew directly towards the Dan Pavilion.

At this time, on the open space in front of the Dan Pavilion, many tribesmen were already standing.

Most of them were alchemists and apprentices in the alchemy pavilion, because of this sudden change, they had to wait outside.

Shen Ruiling looked at the top of the Pill Pavilion, and the surrounding spiritual power was constantly converging there.

I saw that he wielded a piece of spiritual power, controlling the guardian array to intentionally gather the spiritual power on Yun Bifeng to the top of Nadan Pavilion.

...

At the same time, in a room on the top floor of Nadan Pavilion, Shen Ruizhi was sitting on the pad for meditation with a calm face.

His whole body was shrouded in blue light, and lines appeared on his body, like the bark of that old tree.

The injuries on his physical body have recovered, and his current physical body seems to be stronger than before.

His body was shining with bursts of green light, which constantly swallowed the spiritual power pouring into his body from all directions.

Along with the influx of spiritual power, that part of the spiritual liquid accumulated at the bottom of the dantian also rose at a speed visible to the naked eye ~ lightnovelpub.net~ It didn't take long for the spiritual fluid in Shen Ruizhi's dantian to reach a limit. In the saturated state, it seems that an invisible barrier is blocking the spiritual liquid that is slowly rising, making it difficult for them to continue to grow.

Shen Ruizhi knew that this was the bottleneck that straddled the initial and mid-stage foundation construction.

However, at this time, the bottleneck that should have been extremely strong has already been loosened, and countless gaps have been opened.

The torrent of spiritual fluid in his dantian constantly impacted this bottleneck, expanding those gaps.

"Boom~"

In the next moment, this turbulent torrent of spiritual liquid was like a flood that washed away the levee, and instantly pierced the barrier.

The torrent of spiritual fluid that broke through the barrier was like a wild horse running off the rein, rushing to the upper part of the dantian quickly.

Suddenly, the majestic spiritual power in the room began to be drawn, rushing towards Shen Ruizhi's body.

A huge spiritual power vortex has taken shape in the room, and Shen Ruizhi is sitting in the center of the vortex, allowing the endless and majestic spiritual power to pour into his body.

I don't know how long it took before the spiritual vortex in the room gradually dissipated.

Shen Ruizhi still sat on the pad with his eyes closed, earnestly feeling the changes brought to him in the middle of the foundation construction.

Speaking seriously, Shen Ruizhi was a blessing in disguise this time.

When he fought with that cultivator of the Promise Sect during the foundation-building period, he used the forbidden secret technique of burning flesh and blood to gain power.

This secret technique made his already severely injured body become more injured.

However, it was his overloaded use of the taboo secret technique this time, which accidentally broke the bottleneck of the mid-term foundation construction that had troubled him for many years.
