Chapter 390: Building the 5th Floor
The wind was howling, and the snow was flying.
In the blink of an eye, the harsh winter and twelfth lunar month in Linhai County came again.
On the vast Zhenze Lake, the icy cold wind kept blowing towards the shore, freezing the water surface little by little.
At this time, the people of the Shen clan who were constantly hunting and killing monsters in Zhenze Lake also began to return to the Yangshan stronghold.
After all, under the condition that the lake began to freeze, the monsters in the water had already dived into the deep water area, and it was no longer beneficial for the monks to hunt and kill the monsters.
After these clansmen returned to Yangshan, they drove ox carts to Yunbi Peak, and these carts were loaded with the harvest of the monsters they hunted in the recent period.
In addition to these clansmen who hunted monsters and began to return, those clansmen who had been traveling for a whole year also began to return to their families.
For a time, the clansmen on Yunbifeng and Yangshan began to grow, and every family was reunited in a rare way.
In the past six months, driven by the new clan policy, the situation in the family has also undergone tremendous changes.
First of all, the relocation of family mortals has come to an end. This time, nearly 50,000 secular mortals have been transferred from the family directly from the three secular villages and towns of Chang'an, Yongning and Chengtang to Zhenze Lake.
Relying on the convenient waterway opened up by Shen Ruiling, nearly 50,000 secular members of the Shen family arrived at their destination safe and sound.
Now, on the vast expanse of fertile fields between Yangshan and Binhu Town, small mortal villages and towns have appeared.
Although there are only a few hundred people in these mortal villages and towns, as time goes on, these villages and towns will evolve into towns that can accommodate tens of thousands of people.
Secondly, the cultivation of the family monks has also generally improved.
Not counting those clansmen who had broken through the early and middle stages of qi training, there were only three clansmen who had broken through to the late stage of qi training, and two clansmen had successfully broken through to the ninth level of qi training.
Of course, this also has to benefit from the implementation of the new clan policy, so that the clan people have the motivation to forge ahead.
Finally, with the development of Zhenze Lake, the family's income has reached a new high, and after the benefits distributed to the clansmen, there can still be a lot of surplus.
While the clansmen on Yangshan and Yunbi Peak were immersed in the joy of the New Year, the three most important members of the clan were still immersed in retreat.
...
At this time, the lake surface of Zhenze Lake has been covered with a thick layer of ice cap.
However, in the Neihu area, the waves were still choppy, and the icy cold wind constantly set off huge waves.
Unlike the turbulent surface of the lake, the bottom of the lake is unusually calm.
In a grotto under the mountain deep in the lake, Shen Huanchi sat quietly on the stone bed.
In front of his chest, the crystal clear Profound Water Cold Jade was still suspended there smoothly, emitting a dazzling light.
At this time, in the groove in the middle of this mysterious water cold jade, the drop of Kuiyin True Water seemed to have condensed a lot, but it was far from the time when it fell.
On the other hand, Shen Huanchi, who was cultivating with the help of this Profound Water Cold Jade, was much more vigorous than before, but he didn't seem to have taken that step yet.
At this time,
Above the hill where Shen Huanchi retreated to the grotto, a huge black shadow was slowly swimming.
It came to the side of the hill, lay down quietly, and began to cultivate with the help of the pure spiritual power drawn by Xuanshui Hanyu.
...
At the same time, in a cave in the mountain behind Yunbi Peak.
Shen Ruizhi was still sitting quietly on the mat, refining the spiritual power in his body without any distractions.
With the operation of his internal exercises, the rich spiritual power in this stone chamber began to be mobilized by him, and it seemed that a huge spiritual power vortex was slowly taking shape.
At this time, outside Shen Ruizhi's retreat in the stone room, Shen Ruiling was also sitting cross-legged in a meditation posture.
However, compared to Shen Ruizhi, who was building a foundation in the stone room, his cultivation practice was much more bland.
Shen Ruiling just drew a few strands of spiritual energy overflowing from the stone chamber, and then slowly refined it into the body.
For his current situation, Shen Ruiling doesn't need a strong spiritual power from the outside world to help him break through his cultivation.
After all, he now only needs to keep the excess spiritual power in his body wandering around, and then re-refining it into his dantian.
And this process is like a re-engineering, consolidating his originally somewhat vain cultivation base again.
...
After an unknown amount of time, the spiritual power in Shen Ruiling's body suddenly began to flow involuntarily.
The residual medicinal power of the snake saliva fruit seemed to have played a medicinal effect in his body again, turning into strands of pure spiritual power pouring into Shen Ruiling's dantian.
And in Shen Ruiling's dantian, the three light clusters of red, black and yellow suspended in different colors have also moved quickly.
As the light group turned far, all the spiritual energy gathered in the dantian was absorbed, and after a few breaths, it was converted into a drop of spiritual liquid and fell.
After drop by drop of spiritual liquid fell, the thin layer of spiritual liquid at the bottom of Shen Ruiling's dantian began to grow slowly again.
After realizing this scene in his dantian, Shen Ruiling's face couldn't help showing a hint of joy.
However, before he could react from his joy, Shen Ruiling felt that a shackle imprisoned on his body suddenly shattered.
He felt soothed all of a sudden!
Shen Ruiling slowly opened his eyes, and a bright gaze burst out from his deep eyes.
He knows that he has naturally broken through to the fifth-layer realm of foundation building!
After carefully feeling this new realm, a hint of satisfaction appeared on Shen Ruiling's face.
At this time, he felt that the spiritual power stored in his body became much more majestic, as if he had endless power.
What surprised him the most was that the fire attribute and earth attribute spiritual power in his body seemed to have begun to blend together.
And when these two attributes of spiritual power are blended together, the spiritual power fluctuations emitted by this new spiritual power become more violent and dangerous!
As a result, Shen Ruiling's aura has become much more vigorous, and his coercion is no longer inferior to those veteran monks who have stayed at the peak of the middle stage of Foundation Establishment for a long time!
However, before he was happy for long, the spiritual energy in the entire cave suddenly began to riot.
I saw that inside the stone room, a huge vortex of spiritual power had appeared, and Shen Ruizhi was sitting in the center of the vortex, allowing the majestic spiritual power to pour into his body.
"The fourth brother is about to start building the foundation!"
After seeing this scene, Shen Ruiling's face couldn't help showing a hint of excitement.
Then he immediately sat up in a cross-legged position, and began to protect Shen Ruizhi silently.
...
And when everything on Yunbi Peak is developing for the better.
In the Tibetan Sutra Pavilion, a remote place in Yuxiutai, a figure exuding an aura of ascetic practice slowly opened his eyes in the dark.
He slowly stood up from the place where he had been sitting for decades, and began to walk in this empty Buddhist scriptures pavilion.
His withered hands touched the rows of books on the bookshelf, as if he was recalling something, and he seemed to be trying to remember something.
Suddenly, he saw something on a remote bookshelf and slowly picked up a book.
"Strange Bug List"!
Looking at the title of the book, a figure flashed in his mind, and a gratified smile appeared on his face.
He took out this book and several other books here, brushed off the dust on it, and put them back in a conspicuous place.
