Chapter 173 Development
Li Zhirui entered the quiet room again, and before that, he asked a tribesman to help send a letter back to his family, indicating that his retreat time might be very long.
In fact, the main purpose of this letter was to tell Li Shiqing that he was preparing to break through the golden elixir.
"Is Zhi Rui ready to start?" Afterwards, Li Shiqing murmured in a low voice when he heard the news.
Some time ago, Li Shilian officially entered the spiritual acupoint retreat. If everything goes well, the results will be available within five years.
As for Li Zhirui, because he has just laid the foundation now, he still needs time to improve his cultivation and reach the stage of perfect foundation building, and this time will definitely not be too short.
According to Li Shiqing's estimation, it is remarkable that Li Zhirui can be ready for a breakthrough within ten years.
And this was because Li Zhirui had enough elixirs to take, otherwise it would have been impossible to achieve such a fast speed.
Just as Li Shilian and Li Zhirui were retreating into seclusion, Li Zhizhun, the patriarch who had been in office for more than ten years, also began to reform the family.
After all, as the Li family grew, the place quickly became unsuitable and even slowed down the family's development. Li Zhizhun naturally did not allow this to happen.
To this end, Li Zhizhun specially summoned all the elders of the family. Because of Li Shiqing's support, he directly stated the reforms he wanted to make.
"First of all, with the increase in the number of family members and various affairs, the situation where one elder was in charge or assisted by a few more members could no longer keep up with the pace of development."
Li Zhizhun said solemnly: "So, I plan to imitate the major forces and establish the Internal Affairs Hall, Law Enforcement Hall, Alchemy Hall, etc. to be better responsible for the family."
In the past, the Li family did not have these things. It was not that the clan leaders and elders did not think of it, but that it was not necessary. After all, the Li family had to force these things out, which would only waste time and effort, and would not achieve any good results.
But things are different now. The Li family is developing extremely fast, with dozens or hundreds of children with spiritual roots being born every year.
Although they are still young and unable to contribute to the family, their existence is enough to prove the development and growth of the Li family's strength and future!
So these things were originally going to be done in the future, but now they are just being pre-empted.
Those elders did not have no objections to Li Zhizhun's reforms. After all, this approach was weakening their full strength.
However, many of them have become elders before he is the clan leader - some time ago, the last elder of the generation also relieved his responsibilities - and the remaining ones serve as acting clan leaders under Li Zhirui. There have been cooperation and interactions during this period.
Of course, the most important thing is Li Shiqing beside Li Zhizhun!
The old patriarch, the only golden elixir monk in the family, had already appeared. How could they dare to disagree?
"Besides, there is one more thing!" Regarding their reaction, Li Zhizhun nodded with satisfaction. For things like reform, it is natural to borrow strength if possible.
"I am going to increase the monthly payment of the clan members." Li Zhizhun said calmly: "The current monthly payment of the family has been set many years ago. Now that the family has developed and has enough spiritual stones, there is no need to pay more. It’s like before.”
Although the family has to pay more contribution points and elixirs, in the long run, this is a good thing.
And with more resources, it is easier for the tribesmen to become stronger, so they can not raise their bets.
"In this regard, let's follow the situation of the Yuan Sect, but we need to adjust the situation of the outer sect and inner sect disciples to be distributed according to their cultivation level." Li Zhizhun reminded.
Regarding this matter, no elder would refuse, let alone dare to refuse. Otherwise, how would you bear the anger and dissatisfaction of so many tribesmen?
"Okay, if nothing happens, let's all disperse."
Facts have proved that Li Zhizhun is indeed very suitable to be the patriarch. Under his reforms, the Li family once again started rapid development.
Of course, it is also related to the fact that children who have not started practicing before are now eight years old and can embark on the path of cultivation.
Time flies, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
In the past three years, the strength of the Li family has grown explosively. From the original more than a hundred clan leaders, it has grown to hundreds today, and this number is still growing!
Mainly because the hundreds of thousands of mortals who migrated to the island by Li Zhirui were very keen on having children. After all, every time a child was born, there would be a monetary reward.
And if the child has spiritual roots, he can become a monk, join the Li family, change the family, and reach the sky in one step.
In addition, in the past three years, two more foundation-building monks were born in the Li family, named Li Zhihe and Li Zhilou.
In fact, during this period of time, these two people were not the only ones to break through the Foundation Establishment, but the other clan members failed, and because they did not use the Foundation Establishment Pill, failure to break through would mean death.
Yes! This group of tribesmen who tried to break through the foundation building did not use the foundation building pill, because they could not collect so many contribution points, so they had to settle for the next best thing and use foundation building spiritual objects to risk building the foundation.
The two of them were lucky enough to survive and successfully break through the foundation, but others were not so lucky.
Foundation-building spiritual objects are not precious to the Li family. If Yuan Mingzong had not intended to contain the Li family, the Li family would not be able to buy the foundation-building pill.
In fact, there is another direction that Li Zhizhun wants to reform, and that is for the family to come forward and issue a loan to those tribesmen who are expected to break through the Foundation Establishment, allowing them to exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill.
But there is a big problem, that is, the family cannot produce so many foundation-building pills!
Even now that the Li family only has one foundation-building pill left, Li Zhizhun can only keep this idea in his heart and wait until he has the opportunity to talk about it in the future.
In the past three years, Li Zhixuan and Li Zhiyue, who went out for training, returned to Darong Island.
The former was covered in scars, and there was even a scar under the corner of her left eye. It was obvious that she had been in great danger, and even almost died.
This scar was left when she competed with a monk for a magical elixir. The situation at that time was really unfavorable to her, and she was suppressed by the other party.
If Li Zhixuan wasn't ruthless enough, he deliberately exposed a fatal flaw to lure the other party to attack.
In the end, Li Zhixuan won the bet. She used the scar on the corner of her eye to kill him and obtained a very precious second-level elixir.
She returned to Darong Island this time entirely because she had been wandering for a long time, and she had killed too many monsters and monks over the years, and her terrible evil aura had already affected her, and it took time to remove it. .
As for the latter, Li Zhiyue, although she does not have the same experience as Li Zhixuan, she has also encountered various things during her training outside, and she has become much more mature.
