Chapter 457 Changing the Rules

Chapter 456: Changing the Rules

Zhang Sijin has not married and has no descendants. Like Zhang Sihong, he has no stake in this matter and can consider the overall situation of the family. After listening to Zhang Sihong's words, she immediately said: "Brother Sihong is right. The rules for exchanging foundation-building pills should be biased towards seedlings with good spiritual roots, and should not simply reduce family loans and let younger cultivators take out more resources.

We are not Qingxuan Sect, and we don't have such a large base scale. Every seedling with good spiritual roots is the capital of the family. I think the family should invest more in them."

Among the seven foundation-building cultivators present, except Zhang Sihong, Zhang Sijin, and Zhang Tongpeng, the remaining four will have blood relatives participating in the competition for foundation-building pills in a few years.

If according to the previous rules, their descendants can raise 3,000 good deeds, and it will be easy to exchange for foundation-building pills according to family rules. It's a pity that they didn't build their foundation for a long time, and their descendants have not grown up and practiced to the ninth level of Qi training.

If they only raise the threshold for exchanging foundation-building pills and reduce the good deeds of family loans, this strategy will be of great benefit to them and can keep a large part of their competitors out.

Seeing the three Purple Mansion ancestors nod slightly, they obviously agreed with the views of Zhang Sihong and Zhang Sijin. The remaining few foundation-building cultivators looked at each other for a while, and finally someone spoke for their interests.

The first person to speak was Zhang Guangyang. He had been in contact with the three ancestors of the family for many years in Heishan. He knew that they were all open-minded people. On the contrary, it was easier for them to have opinions if they were hidden.

"Grandfather, for the long-term development of the family, we also agree to increase support for cultivators with good spiritual roots. However, under similar conditions, I hope that we can be considered when formulating rules."

Zhang Guangyang started, and Zhang Zeqian, Zhang Tonghuai, Zhang Yuantai and others immediately nodded with empathy. They are the backbone of the family. Because their path is smoother than that of their peers, most of them marry and have children after building their foundations to reproduce. Compared with their peers, their children are younger.

According to the current family rules, the threshold for exchanging foundation-building pills is not high. As long as there is a late-stage Qi training cultivator in the family to support them, they can basically gather three thousand good deeds. The few foundation-building pills that have been refined now are not exchanged by the descendants of the foundation-building cultivators.

They have personally felt the difficulty of hunting the fourth-level monster this time. It may take many years to wait for such an opportunity again, so they are also the most eager to change the family rules.

On the contrary, some ninth-level Qi training cultivators hope to maintain the rules of exchanging foundation-building pills for a longer time. Even though they know that this rule cannot be maintained for too long, their interests are closely related, so they don’t want to change it at all.

However, in the current Zhang family, the ninth-level Qi training cultivators can’t come to the stage at all. They can’t see Zhang Zhixuan at ordinary times, and they don’t have any say in making rules.

Compared with the overall situation of the family’s development, their interests can only be put behind.

"I know what you mean. I think the most urgent thing is to raise the threshold for exchanging foundation-building pills. In the future, when a cultivator in the family exchanges for foundation-building pills, he must at least pay 6,000 family merits. For cultivators who join the sect to build a foundation, the family can borrow 2,000 spiritual stones.

In addition, for those with good spiritual roots, they not only have priority in exchanging for foundation-building pills, but also can borrow more merits from their families. As long as a cultivator with two spiritual roots has 3,000 merits, he can apply to his family to exchange for foundation-building pills. As for cultivators with different spiritual roots, they only need 1,000 merits.

What do you think of my opinion?"

Zhang Zhixuan pondered for a moment and finally came up with a solution.

Zhang Guangyang asked directly: "If there is only one foundation-building pill left in the family, and the spiritual roots and good deeds are the same, can we take care of the foundation-building cultivators and give our descendants priority?"

"This priority cannot be given to you, so as to avoid being overwhelmed in the future. However, if the spiritual roots are the same, whoever has done more good deeds can exchange for the foundation-building pill first. You are all foundation-building cultivators, and you will not be unable to compete with the Qi training clan members in the family's good deeds, right?

Since you cannot compete with others in good deeds, it means that your contribution to the family is not as good as others, so there is no complaint if you lose."

After formulating the rules, Zhang Zhixuan recorded the new rules, asked everyone to sign their names, and then hung them in the Black Mountain Cave Mansion.

This rule will also be posted in the family ancestral hall of Tiantai Peak soon, and will even be promoted to places with many clan members such as Lingjing Mountain and Jiuhua Mountain.

Zhang Zhixuan also wrote several letters in person to inform Sidao and Tongcheng of Qingxuan Sect of the new rules, and notified Guangliang, Zerui, Shenggao and others stationed outside.

While most of the family's foundation-building cultivators came to Black Mountain, Zhang Zhixuan also explained some of their difficulties in cultivation.

Even though they had different cultivation methods, the three Purple Palace cultivators had high cultivation levels and could give them high-level guidance. Especially Zhang Zhixuan had a strong understanding, and Qingchan also had a lot of experience from Liu Xuanyan, so they had no difficulty with the foundation-building period. After their guidance, most of the doubts accumulated by the family's foundation-building cultivators were solved.

Because they occupied a lot of interests, the Zhang family cultivators were now divided into various strongholds in the south and north. They had no time to stay in Black Mountain for a long time, and soon rushed to Taihong Mountain, Guiyuan Mountain and other sacred mountains.

After seeing off these younger generations, Wu Rongyuan of the Wu family also came to Black Mountain.

After several decades, Wu Rongyuan's cultivation has made great progress. Now he has reached the sixth level of foundation building, comparable to the old patriarch Wu Xiangzhen.

Although the new patriarch of the Wu family has a high level of cultivation, he is introverted and honest in character, and is actually not suitable for the responsibility of patriarch. Unfortunately, the Wu family has only two foundation building cultivators outside. In addition to Wu Rongyuan, the remaining Wu Longyuan is already an elderly cultivator over 200 years old.

Like Zhang Sidao of the Zhang family, this person also has problems in cultivation. Although he is not young, his cultivation is only the third level of foundation building, and he has no say in the family.

When he saw Zhang Zhixuan, Wu Rongyuan stood aside stiffly, and didn't know how to ask Zhang Zhixuan for the foundation building pill.

Zhang Zhixuan had a better impression of this honest man. He politely asked Wu Rongyuan to sit down and said straight to the point: "What did your ancestor say to you? Have you brought the spirit stones?"

"Reporting to Senior Zhang, the spirit stones have been brought."

Zhang Zhixuan's spiritual sense moved, and he scanned Wu Rongyuan's spirit stone bag and found that fifty medium-grade spirit stones were neatly stacked together. Medium-grade spirit stones are more useful to the Zhang family. They can serve as energy for several puppet beasts and are more valuable than low-grade spirit stones.

Wu Rongyuan didn't even take this small advantage. It is estimated that he is easier to deal with than the old patriarch of the Wu family, Wu Xiangzhen.

After putting away the spirit stones, Zhang Zhixuan handed a foundation-building pill to Wu Rongyuan.

Using the foundation-building pill of the Zhang family, Wu Shucheng, a younger cultivator of the Wu family, successfully built his foundation, which finally alleviated the situation of the Wu family being weak inside and strong outside.
