Longevity starts with dual cultivation

Chapter 100: When one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven?

Longhuan Island, market town.

On the fifth floor of Xianweifang, Ling Changqing sat in a private room facing the street, looking at the bustling and busy streets.

Foreign cultivators with unfamiliar faces can be seen everywhere, and most of their cultivation is below the middle stage of Qi training.

However, there are quite a few cultivators in the late stage of Qi training, and occasionally one can also see cultivators in the foundation-building stage.

It is not easy for independent cultivators to survive. Those who can reach the foundation-building stage through their own efforts cannot be simple characters.

The number of shops on both sides of the street has increased a lot, and all businesses are thriving. All good locations have been snapped up. Even the land prices in those remote areas have increased several times.

"…The popularity of this market is increasing!"

Ling Changqing sighed slightly.

The young and charming girl beside him, dressed in silk and satin, smiled faintly:

"Young Master is right. When we were on Zen Heart Island, the market was much smaller than here! There weren't so many cultivators at all."

This is very normal. The influence of the foundation-building forces and the golden elixir forces are two completely different levels.

Especially with the arrival of the Nebula Falcon Chamber of Commerce branch, countless cultivators from the entire Feiyu Sea area couldn't help but come here to visit.

After all, it is not easy for the lower-level cultivators to survive and resources are scarce. Even if they have spirit stones, it is not easy to buy certain high-end cultivation resources, and they also have to worry about being robbed.

Only in places like the Nebula Falcon Chamber of Commerce branch would the situation be better.

"I think this is just an appetizer. Longhuan Island will definitely be more prosperous in the future... after you become a Jindan Zhenren!"

Ling Menghuan, who was timid, gentle and quiet beside her, spoke softly.

Both women have great confidence in Ling Changqing's future potential and limits of achievement.

"Maybe, but that will take many years!"

Ling Changqing smiled and said that his future achievements on the path would certainly not stop at the foundation-building stage, and even the golden elixir stage might not be the end.

Song Xuelan pursed her lips and smiled: "It won't take too long, young master will definitely become a golden elixir master!"

Ling Changqing looked her up and down for a few breaths, and said in a gentle voice:

"You have already reached the sixth level of Qi training. You should work hard on your training in the future. Don't worry about the training resources. I will prepare them for you."

"Well, I only listen to you, sir."

Song Xuelan's face flushed and she nodded vigorously in agreement.

Her spiritual root aptitude was not outstanding, but ever since she followed Ling Changqing, she has lived in a second-level spiritual vein cave all year round, and with sufficient resources as a backing, the speed at which her cultivation improves is no less than those of the Ling family's direct descendants.

Song Xuelan cherished this good fortune very much. She took care of the affairs of the cave and served Ling Changqing with great care, without any slackness.

Seeing Ling Menghuan's expression slightly gloomy, Ling Changqing smiled and touched her waist:

"You too, don't worry about anything else, just practice hard. I still want you to keep me company under the same blanket!"

Ling Menghuan's expression suddenly brightened, and she responded softly, her beautiful face blushing.

After recovering from her injuries, she has become much more plump, and she feels more energetic. Not long ago, she successfully broke through to the fifth level of Qi training.

Song Xuelan thought about it and said with a little trepidation: "But Sir, if you spend resources to train us, it won't affect your own cultivation progress, right? And Sister Qiuyao..."

In her opinion, Tang Qiuyao is the young master's legitimate Taoist partner after all. If she has any objections to this, it would be difficult for the young master to be caught in the middle.

Ling Changqing shook his head: "It doesn't matter. She won't embarrass you. Don't worry at all!"

He was not short of resources now. Not to mention the distant future, at least before he reached the Golden Core Realm, it was no pressure for him to support a few maids in the Qi Training Stage, and he would not need them to feed him.

When Ling Changqing becomes a Jindan Zhenren in the future, resources will only become more abundant. Even the Foundation Establishment Pill, which is hard to come by in the eyes of low-level cultivators, will be just a small gadget that he can easily get.

It is human nature to take proper care of the people around you within your ability.

The reason why ordinary people hate nepotism and the phenomenon of "one person's success brings prosperity to everyone else" is, after all, because they are not the beneficiaries.

No matter in which time and space, no matter in which era, what people really oppose is not privilege, but the fact that they have no privilege. This is human nature.

From Ling Changqing's perspective, if there are benefits, instead of giving priority to those who are close to him, should he also take care of strangers he doesn't even know?
Besides, these were cultivation resources that he had earned, not the clan's public property, so there was no suspicion of abuse of power for personal gain. He could give them to whomever he wanted. The two women looked at the purple-clothed youth beside them quietly, their eyes tender and affectionate.

At this time, at the largest port on Longhuan Island, several large sea ships slowly approached the dock.

"…Is this the Ling family's Longhuan Island? It seems to be much more popular than the Youye Islands!"

After disguising herself, Mu Yuxin silently looked around and walked ashore surrounded by several maids and followers.

I came here with an important task entrusted by the family's top brass, and I don't know if I can complete the mission.

……

After eating and drinking, Ling Changqing left Xianweifang, strolled around with the two girls for a while, and then walked into Xiuhexuan.

This is the shop opened by the casual cultivator Hua Jingyi. He had been here once with Tang Qiuyao last time.

A moment later, in the VIP room.

"Master Ling has established his foundation so quickly? He is indeed extremely gifted and enviable!"

Hua Jingyi, who has a beautiful face and elegant temperament, smiled slightly, wearing a well-cut sea-blue dress, with a graceful figure.
Ling Changqing nodded and said softly, "Long time no see. Has Brother Hua recovered from his injuries? It seems that he is not far from the late stage of foundation building!"

"It's hard to say now, I hope there will be such a day!"

Hua Jingyi said that she had been injured before, and her cultivation had regressed a lot from the middle stage of foundation building, and even her lifespan was affected.

Later, with the help of Ling Qiyue, he was able to recover. Now his cultivation has been fully restored, and he looks a lot younger, with skin as white as snow and radiant.

"Mr. Ling, I have already made the set of spiritual clothing that I promised you last time. You can try it to see if it fits you. If there are any problems, I can modify it!"

As Hua Jingyi spoke, she took out a set of gorgeous clothes that were dark purple, glowing with spiritual light, and covered with starry cloud patterns from her storage bag and handed them to Ling Changqing.

"Thank you, fellow Taoist!"

Ling Changqing took the clothes but was not in a hurry to try them on. Instead, he pointed at Song Xuelan and the other girl beside him:
"Please make them some suitable clothes. Top-grade magical tools will do. I will pay you with all the spiritual stones!"

"no problem."

Hua Jingyi agreed readily. It was naturally a good thing to have business coming to the door.

She looked Song Xuelan and the other two girls up and down for a while, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Are these the concubines you took in, sir? Do you plan to let them bear children for you?"

Ling Changqing explained with a bit of embarrassment: "Don't misunderstand, fellow Daoist, it's not the case yet."

Hua Jingyi smiled and said, "That will definitely happen in the future. I think they both have good aptitudes. They should be able to give birth to children with spiritual roots in the future, right?"

Song Xuelan and Ling Menghuan blushed instantly, feeling extremely embarrassed, but they did not deny it.

Ling Changqing shook his head: "That's not certain, and I don't have any idea of ​​raising children yet."

Hua Jingyi's expression became more serious, and she said, "I think, for the future of the family, you should consider this issue as soon as possible!"

The descendants of cultivators may not necessarily have spiritual roots.

In the world of immortal cultivation, this is a very normal situation. Even if the parents are both cultivators and their cultivation is not low, the children born may not necessarily have spiritual roots.

Among a dozen children, if one or two of them have spiritual roots, it is already a very ideal result. Even examples where there is no immortal seedling at all are not uncommon.

Therefore, in the world of immortal cultivation, no matter the size of the force or the level of cultivation, one of the most troublesome problems is the lack of successors.

That's why Hua Jingyi felt that since Ling Changqing was the most outstanding fairy seedling among the new generation of the family, he should work harder in this regard as soon as possible and contribute to the development and growth of the family.

It is normal to have many wives and concubines and to have many children. However, having only two concubines is still a little too few.

Maybe... I could consider introducing one to him? This way, the relationship between the two sides could be closer.

Hua Jingyi thought to herself that the young man in front of her was an important figure in the Ling family. If she had a good relationship with him, he might be of unexpected help to her in the future.

"There's no rush for this matter now, let's talk about it later!"

Ling Changqing said.
