The Nine Holes School is too far away. In addition, the discipline must be arranged by the clan.
Actually, the Jade Tower has been decided upon, and he will practice in the Dripping Water Cave in the future.
Once the True Lord measured his spiritual root, the judgment given was Fire 6, Water 4.
To want root gas to be harmonious and to quickly build the foundation, you need to supplement water method.
And the recommended Dripping Water Cave water Qi of the True Lord, Guiding Jade, can help Yulou to supplement water method and has excellent combat power.
Therefore, Yulou is definitely going to join the practice of Dripping Water Cave in the future.
For the King of Anbei, arranging a double spiritual root disciple into the Purple Mansion sect is as simple as eating and drinking.
But these things, Yulou doesn't need to say so much to Hongmei, so he only says to listen to the family arrangement.
"The family arrangement, Yulou... Good apprentice, you all, no, our Wang family."
"How our Wang family plans to deal with me, the village chief hasn't given a definite answer yet."
"You can refine a medium-grade artifact with thirteen layers of forbidden arts today with your practice level of Qi attraction seven layers, which means you can actually leave the sect."
Hongmei tried to ask tentatively.
Wang Xianmao's condition was to have him first teach the alchemy to the two of them before discussing his foundation-building matter.
At the beginning, Hongmei built a foundation because he was willing to take risks and bear humiliation.
But seven years have passed, the resources needed to build the foundation have risen from 40,000 jingshi to 80,000 jingshi. However, Wang Xianmao has never talked to him about his foundation-building matter.
How could Hongmei not be worried in his heart.
"Master, I only attained to the attainment during the process of refining today, so I could refine a purple copper staff with the Qi layer."
As an apprentice, I have much to learn from you, and it's too early for me to leave." Yulou humbly replied.
Under the empowerment of an entire tube of the Divine Gold Light, his level of refining alchemy was temporarily raised significantly, probably from ten layers of restriction directly to the level of thirteen layers.
This is not a 30% increase, but at least a 50% increase, because the difficulty increases as you progress.
But finally, he actively refines one more layer, explodes the purple copper staff, so now he can evade the fact that he is in a state of enlightenment.
Hongmei was not concerned about Yulou's proficiency in refining alchemy. He nodded and said.
"Enlightenment can temporarily improve the level of refining alchemy, but Yulou, your ability to attain enlightenment also shows that you have accumulated enough beforehand."
I want to find an opportunity to visit the village chief at my house. Do you or Rongsheng Dao Friend have the ability to help me consult?”
Child, don't say anymore, your level of refining alchemy is truly enough.
I have taught you all the restrictions I know, and you have also learned the corresponding methods.
Nothing but the cultivation level is lower, as long as you have the cultivation level of the Exercising Qi Period, it is not difficult to refine high-grade artifacts.
"Master, you also know the situation of our Wang family. Uncle Rongjiang is currently in the second seclusion to break through the foundation-building."
Iron Catching Crane, the Iron Ancestor, has indeed established a foundation early, but Uncle Rongyuan and Uncle Rongwen may still be a few years short.
In the case of Rongjiang's ancestor's successful promotion this time, the Wang family will have four foundation-building.
Old Master Jingyi and the Iron Ancestor are both outsiders, while the village chief and Uncle Rongjiang are the direct lineage, two against two.
If you want to establish a foundation, you may have to wait until Uncle Rongyuan or Uncle Rongwen establish a foundation before you get an opportunity."
Although Yulou gave not good news, Hongmei felt more and more at ease.
He spoke with expectation and anxiety.
"So, the clan will still give me an opportunity to establish a foundation, right?"
In his view, he only committed a small mistake at the time, but he has endured for many years and has played it well.
Therefore, in the case of making up for his sins, the Wang family giving him an opportunity to establish a foundation is still possible.
"Just now was just my analysis, you should ask the village chief yourself. I will ask for the village chief on your behalf."
In addition, I want to know if the refining alchemy practice of Yulou and Yu'an is enough, which also needs the approval of the village chief or other elders.”
Yulou's words cooled down Hongmei's enthusiasm that had just flared up.
He stood there for a long time, calmly opening his mouth.
"I don't need the support of the clan. At that time, those resources and jingshi, I can all consider them as penitential gifts."
Yulou, you also know that over the years, I have given my all, imparting all my knowledge to you and Yu'an.
In all honesty, it's still playing the emotional blackmail card.
The past, Hongmei accepted it. He wanted to talk about his future.
Yulou, I was wrong, but I have also treated you well since then!
The refining room of Huafeng residence is incredibly quiet. The cooling water drips from the refining furnace, making a ticking sound that echoes heavily in both of their hearts.
Anxiously looking at Yulou, Hongmei's mind was in turmoil.
Yulou, do you think I still have a chance?
"Master, how old are you this year?"
Yulou's question is interesting, very interesting. Hongmei understood what he meant at least partly.
The desire to establish a foundation started to beat again, those expectations that had cooled down time and time again rose again, filling Hongmei's eyes.
He pretended to be disappointed, trying to gain Yulou's sympathy.
"Eighty-nine, sounds still young, but foundation-building may not be successful in one try."
If it fails, at least it takes three or five years to recuperate, and that's time wasted. I can't afford to wait."
Yulou and Hongmei were transitioning from mutual probing to some form of communication with similar intentions.
For seedlings like Wang Rongwen and Wang Rongyuan, there are three in the Rong generation in the Wang family. Wang Rongjiang has taken the lead, and according to the village chief's arrangement, Rongyuan and Rongwen are closely following behind.
With such talent and accumulation, at least two of them can succeed if they have sufficient resources.
For those like Wang Rongsheng, it's hard to establish a foundation, but there are still some opportunities for senior male-line descendants at the practicing Qi level in the Wang family, who have more than seven or eight.
If even one of them can succeed, then there will be four foundation-established members in the male-line.
But Hongmei is already 89 years old, which is an awkward age. He can wait for it, but it's not that easy to wait for it.
"Master, you should have noticed.
"Master, you should have noticed. Over the years, the Red Lantern Society has sold a bunch of sects to hermits, and there has been a fierce battle between Miao Feng Mountain and Gushen Sect."
Those powerful hermits have jumped back and forth to earn their living, and the cost of establishing a foundation has become increasingly expensive.
I remember that at the Qingxi Festival, four thousand jingshi could solve a foundation-building resource.
Now, the same amount of resource requires eighty thousand jingshi.
I cannot give you a definite reference as to when the clan will agree to letting you establish a foundation.
But I suggest that you first accumulate the resources for foundation-building."
It's better not to mention this, but once Yulou does, Hongmei's heart becomes even more bitter.
At the time, how did I get blinded by my heart, wanting to kill these two disciples?
If he was just a guest scholar at the Wang family, then he would not have had all his accumulated resources plundered by Wang Xianmao.
He might have established his foundation and succeeded by now.
As a result, every step wrong has led to another wrong.
"And Master, without foundation resources, it's still possible to establish a foundation. It's just that the risks are higher and the success rate is lower."
You can adopt the same strategy as the Iron Ancestor, and by purchasing only half of the life-saving and base-preserving herbs, you can attempt to establish a foundation.
In this way, even if failure occurs, time will not be wasted. As long as there is no backlash or injury, the more times you establish a foundation, the higher your success rate will be.
Hongmei looked at Yulou in disbelief. He was not sure if this was a new trap.
Does the Wang family hope I spin in circles and accumulate some precious herbs and elixirs for foundation-building, just so they can snatch them away?
He is just playing me?
That's right.
"Time waits for no one is indeed true; over the years, the prices of foundation-related items have doubled, and some have even started to become scarce on the market."
"I don't know when these prices will decrease in the future. Ah."
Hongmei didn't believe Yulou's talk, and he chose to change the subject.
"It can't be lowered. Five years ago, there were still many people who shipped goods from different places to sell here at the Red Lantern Society."
Later, it developed into cultivators who were about to establish a foundation and went to travel outside, buying the resources needed for foundation-building along the way.
Now, it's expensive everywhere in Wuning.
The closed systems of major sects do not extend to small families and hermits, so the circulation of foundation-building resources is decreasing, which is why the prices have risen so sharply.
Once this trend starts, it's hard to stop, as everyone wants to earn a little more."
After Yulou finished speaking, he planned to leave.
He still had to go to the Baobao Pavilion to reprice the various goods.
With the fierce battles on the Wolong River, the precious war materials are becoming more and more expensive every day.
Yulou, are you willing to let me establish a foundation?
Hongmei finally called out to Yulou and asked about his doubts in his heart.
Because, just now, Yulou's words and actions had this meaning.
"Our Wang family has always been kind-hearted and friendly to others."
But when we face enemies, we believe in not moving unless necessary, and once we move, we must root them out completely.
"Master, I believe you are a smart person. You should not give us the excuse of cutting grass and removing weeds."
And Yulou likes his sister, she is my younger brother after all."
Yulou's attitude is not strange. In his view, Hongmei can establish a foundation, but there are many prerequisite conditions.
Among the prerequisites, there are the village chief's bottom line and Yulou's demands. It depends on whether Hongmei is willing to accept them.
Time will be when the male-line ancestors of the Wang family have established enough foundations. This is the village chief's bottom line, otherwise it's hard to control.
The marriage between Yu'an and Ningyao is one of Yulou's requests. Yu'an is after all his younger brother who he has raised, and it's not possible to do otherwise.
While Yu'an and Ningyao become disciples, Hongmei will naturally get closer to the Wang family. In the future, this cheap master can become an ally of Yulou to some extent – this is a request that Yulou has not expressed publicly.
The cultivators who can establish a foundation usually have a clear understanding of whether they have the chance to become Zifushu.
Under the suppression of the Wang family, Hongmei cannot prove his path to the Purple Mansion. Even if he wants to cause trouble, it would be no more than gambling with his life.
Under these circumstances, for Hongmei, getting close to the Wang family has become his only option in the short term.
Yulou's apparent eagerness to draw closer is actually an effort to accumulate strength for himself.
With the advantages of rules and strength, great cultivators can easily seize the output of lower-level cultivators and even families like the Wang family.
Yulou wants to go far, he must learn to band together and seek warmth from others.
Just as he said to Yu'an, even if the reality is harsh, one must begin by accepting it, and accepting part of it, in order to find ways to break the situation.
As for whether Hongmei will cause trouble in the future, Yulou is not at all afraid.
Because, the foundation-building of the Wang family will appear like bamboo sprouts after rain.
This family is heading towards a new era.
"These things are all manageable, but, the Black Vine Lock Spirit Technique on me..."
"Daughter, Hongmei doesn't really care about it. He had thought of using you to bind and attract people like Yu'an and Wang Rongwen."
But the Black Vine Lock Spirit Technique is different. If it's not released, he will never have a chance to establish a foundation in his life.
"Master, my attitude is of no use. You need to persuade the village chief."
Yulou smiled and said that he was just a singer of good-natured faces. Now, he has sung enough, and the remaining part will depend on Wang Xianmao's asking price.
After speaking, he left the Hua Feng residence. This time, Hongmei did not stop him.
Yulou painted a beautiful picture of a cake and then floated away lightly.
But the cake depicted in the mirror, like a flower floating on water, has indeed captivated Hongmei.
He understands. He has been afraid and worried for so many years, how could he not understand?
Hongmei knows everything.
Hongmei, the Three Hundred Pound Monk, looked at the empty foundry room and called for a chair, leaning weakly against it.
How did he step by step, walk to the end of the road?
