In the backyard of the Ling family, it was the only courtyard in the Ling family that had a Gang-gathering Formation. The elders of the Ling family usually rested and cultivated here, and they also took care of some important matters in the family.
In one of the abodes, the First Elder, who had vomited blood because he couldn't vent his frustration and anger that day, was now lying on the bed with a long face and staring blankly at the wall. He didn't pay any attention to the Second Elder, Ling Xuanfeng and his son, Ling Zhengshan, who were sitting not far away and talking.
"Third Uncle, don't you think that the family's punishment for Master Shui is a bit too harsh? It's almost the end of the month, and I'm really worried that he won't open the furnace! "Ling Zhengshan, who was in charge of the herbal medicine business, asked anxiously.
The Second Elder, Ling Xuanfeng, shook his head. "Zhengshan, don't worry! That guy will not only open the furnace on time at the end of the month, but he will also increase the number of pills we requested by 30%! "
"Why are you so sure, Third Uncle?" Ling Zhengshan asked. In fact, Ling Zhengshan more or less understood this logic, but his father, Ling Gaofeng, was giving him the cold shoulder. He couldn't let Ling Xuanfeng sit on the bench, could he?
"Zhengshan, as the saying goes, a kind horse will be ridden, and a kind man will be bullied! For people like Master Shui, we can't be satisfied blindly, and we must give him a proper warning! As long as our main family shows a certain degree of toughness, he will be alerted, just like how we arranged guards for him this time. "Ling Xuanfeng said.
"Thank you for your advice, Third Uncle? Will we continue like this? "Ling Zhengshan asked again.
The Second Elder, Ling Xuanfeng, shook his head. "That won't do. When dealing with a child, you have to give him a sweet date after giving him a slap. After Master Shui hands over the number of pills for this month, you can do the same as before and reward him with some beautiful maids and jewelry. "
As he spoke, Ling Xuanfeng glanced at First Elder Ling Gaofeng, whose face was still gloomy, and said, "In addition, when Ling Dong comes out of the Earth Fire Elixir Room, bring Ling Dong to apologize to Master Shui verbally. Let Master Shui be happy, and at the same time, let your father calm down, lest he gets sick from staying in bed all day long!"
Ling Zhengshan smiled bitterly and nodded. Ling Gaofeng, on the bed, suddenly turned around. "Lao San, how do you know that I'll get sick from staying in bed? What were you doing when you supported Ling Yuanshan? "
Second Elder Ling Xuanfeng smiled wryly: "Second Brother, was I supporting Yuanshan? I was thinking for the sake of the Ling Family! About this matter, in your heart, you are more … "
Speaking up to here, the Second Elder's expression suddenly changed. He stood up abruptly and strode towards the door. As he walked, he asked, "What's wrong? Is there someone in the Ling family who is condensing astral energy and breaking through to the Xiantian realm today?"
"No one. Anyone in the Ling family who wants to condense astral energy and break through to the Xiantian realm has to come to the Aura Gathering Abode to cultivate. I'm the one who arranges the time. Why didn't you tell me?" Ling Zhengshan asked in confusion.
"What's that strange phenomenon in the sky?" Second Elder Ling Xuanfeng asked as he walked out of the room, pointing at the enormous funnel that had suddenly formed above the Ling Residence, like a still tornado.
"Could it be that there's a genius in the Ling family who can condense astral energy without the help of pills?" The Second Elder, Ling Xuanfeng, murmured as he looked at the strange phenomenon in the sky.
The First Elder, Ling Gaofeng, who was originally sulking on his bed, jumped up upon hearing this. In the blink of an eye, he flashed to the door and looked at the funnel of astral energy that suddenly appeared in the sky above the Ling family in shock.
"Zhengshan, quickly go and investigate. Investigate the branch family members and ordinary family guards who are usually overlooked by us!" After looking for a while, Ling Gaofeng suddenly ordered.
"How many years has it been since a martial artist who can condense astral energy appeared in the South Mountain County …" Ling Xuanfeng murmured. Looking at the strange phenomenon in the sky, his eyes were filled with passion.
But this passion didn't last for long. Suddenly, it turned into shock.
The giant funnel that appeared in the sky suddenly burst into a dazzling light and scattered in all directions. In a few breaths, it disappeared without a trace.
Ling Zhengshan, who had just ordered people to investigate, was stunned. "So fast? Doesn't it usually last for fifteen minutes? Could it be that he failed to condense astral energy? "
The First Elder, Ling Gaofeng, and the Second Elder, Ling Xuanfeng, also couldn't hide the shock and disappointment in their eyes. The duration was so short. Could it be that his body couldn't withstand the huge force and exploded?
.....
In the Ling family's Heaven Cauldron Room, Ling Dong, who had been continuously nourishing his astral energy for nearly ten days after successfully condensing a miniature astral energy, let out a long breath and stretched his body after feeling that the newly formed miniature astral energy had completely stabilized.
Cracking sounds rang out continuously. The sound of the joints in his body made Ling Dong feel that his body was full of energy.
"Young Master, you're awake!" Gao Yuan, who had been cultivating with Ling Dong for more than ten days, stood up and asked.
Ling Dong nodded his head, but his eyes inadvertently looked at his finger. With a thought, the slowly rotating silver miniature Dipper in his body suddenly sped up, and a stream of Dipper Energy shot out. Ling Dong lightly flicked his finger!
"Puff!"
The sound of something breaking through the air was heard. However, the wall of the cauldron room made of stone was cut by the wind from Ling Dong's finger.
Astral energy leaving the body was a sign of a Connate martial artist.
Looking at this scene, Gao Yuan was stunned. His black face was filled with excitement, and his mouth opened wider and wider. "Young Master … Young Master … You've broken through … to the Connate Realm?" Although he felt that it was impossible, Gao Yuan still asked this question. The previous phenomenon had already given him a hint.
Ling Dong was also stunned when he heard this question. It was really difficult to determine whether he was a Connate martial artist or not.
"I'm not sure either. Anyway, the astral energy in my body is still at Houtian Realm Level Four!" Ling Dong replied after pondering for a while.
There was something that Ling Dong didn't say. Although the astral energy in his body was still at Houtian Realm Level Four, it had been converted into Connate astral energy in that crazy compression. The various benefits of Connate astral energy were not lacking in Ling Dong's body.
The only difference was that the amount of Connate astral energy in a real Connate martial artist's body could be tens or even hundreds of times greater than that in Ling Dong's body. The astral energy in a real Connate martial artist's body was more than ten times greater than the miniature astral energy in Ling Dong's body.
In the Big Dipper Technique, the realm of condensing a miniature astral energy was called Minor Connate.
"Still Houtian Realm Level Four …" Hearing his young master's answer, Gao Yuan was even more confused. Whether it was the astral energy leaving the body or the phenomenon a few days ago, it meant that his young master had entered the Connate stage. However, his young master was clearly still at Houtian Realm Level Four …
Unable to understand this question, Gao Yuan decided not to think about it. He quickly packed up his things, including the unused medicinal herbs and the jade tools that his young master had used to refine pills.
Ling Dong walked to the metal protrusion that controlled the Dragon Breaking Stone very easily and pressed it back down with all his might.
The rumbling sound of the mechanism began to resound, and the green-gold Dragon Breaking Stones began to sink slowly. This lasted for about two minutes, and the four huge Dragon Breaking Stones completely disappeared, as if they had never appeared in the first place.
After exiting the Earth Fire Elixir Room, Ling Dong and Gao Yuan's first reaction was to cover their eyes. After staying in the Earth Fire Elixir Room for more than ten days, the sunlight outside was really too glaring.
The moment Ling Dong covered his eyes, the spies that the Ling family had arranged around the Earth Fire Elixir Room ran to report to their masters — Ling Dong had left the room!
There were people who were worried about his son's safety and arranged for Ling Yuanshan's men to be here!
There were also people arranged by the Great Elder and Ling Zhengshan!
The one who ran the fastest was a guard that Master Shui had bribed. He immediately sent the news of Ling Dong coming out of seclusion to Master Shui's residence.
Master Shui, who was sipping tea unhappily, immediately jumped up when he heard the news. After thanking the guard with a generous sum of money, he immediately called for his servant!
"Go and tell Ling Zhengshan that if he helps me fulfill the requirements in this letter, I will not only refine the pills he asked me to refine a few days ago, but I will also refine some personal goods for him!" Saying this, Master Shui took out a letter that he had written long ago from his bosom.
The servant took the letter with both hands and quickly left!
Master Shui, however, clenched his fists tightly, his eyes full of ferocity!
