Although Zhang Mengjian did not dare to open Zhang Zhixuan's letters, when he came to Montenegro, he still heard the news that Zhang Zhixuan had captured two Foundation Establishment Pills. This news spread widely in Montenegro, and almost everyone knew about it.
Zhang Mengqian was over seventy years old and quite experienced in dealing with people. He accepted Zhang Zhixuan's letter almost calmly. He did not show any abnormality and followed Liu Zixuan and the others back to Taicheng County.
As soon as he returned to Taicheng County, he ran back to Lushan without stopping with the letter and handed it to Zhang Leqian personally.
Zhang Leqian sent Zhang Mengqian away, opened the letter, and found out about Zhang Zhixuan's situation in Black Mountain.
Zhang Leqian also had no objection to Zhang Zhixuan agreeing to Wang Luyuan's request.
Looking at the current situation, the Wang family estimates that there will be no monks suitable for foundation building within a few decades.
The Zhang family has over a hundred monks and a population of tens of thousands, while the Wang family has only a few dozen people and only five or six monks. After decades of intermarriage, the blood of the Wang family will be the blood of the Zhang family.
It can be said that Zhang Zhixuan obtained a foundation-building pill for his family at almost no cost.
Compared with Zhang Leqian's conservativeness, Zhang Zhixuan's family development appears to be more radical. However, compared to the Chen family that has grown and developed in Longjiang County in recent hundreds of years, Zhang Zhixuan's radicalness is far from nothing.
Chen Yutian, the ancestor of the Chen family, actually took in hundreds of concubines in order to open up the family. These concubines of his were like domestic prostitutes. Whenever friends and guests came, or even gatherings of casual cultivators, he would use these concubines to entertain the guests. Borrow seeds.
After more than a hundred years like this, Chen Yutian used these concubines to spread his business and gave birth to more than 200 children. Although most of these children were not from his bloodline, they relied on borrowing seeds from monks.
The next generation of monks in the Chen family actually reached more than forty people. Their development speed far exceeded that of Zhang Tairen, the ancestor of the Zhang family, and they soon laid the foundation of a family that established foundations for cultivating immortals.
The ancestor of the Zhang family, Zhang Tairen, could be considered a fertile monk, and his children only had seven spiritual roots. If it weren't for Zhang Chuyun, a genius son, the Zhang family would be far less prosperous than the Chen family.
Although Chen Yutian, the founder of the Chen family, has been criticized by others, it is because his family's rules are the most open among the dozen or so families in the three counties in the southeast.
In his later years, he even established a retainer system in the Chen family, attracting a large number of casual cultivators into the family.
Their disciples can easily join the family and integrate their blood into the Chen family.
Although Chen Yutian's direct bloodline is now somewhat weak in the Chen family, the Chen family founded by Chen Yutian is really becoming more and more prosperous.
Zhang Zhixuan is not as unruly as Chen Yutian, but he can also learn some good systems of the Chen family and assimilate the weak small family, which is very beneficial to the family.
The assimilated monks can not only replenish the family's fresh blood, but also improve the family's bloodline, making the proportion of descendants of the family with spiritual roots greater.
If you want the assimilated monks from a small family to have a sense of identity, you must treat everyone equally and fairly. To enforce this rule, you must rely on the constraints of the family rules and regulations.
Enforcement of sect rules is strict, and only by respecting the rules can one achieve this.
Zhang Leqian received the letter, thought about it carefully all night, and finally decided not to follow Zhang Zhixuan's wishes, but decided to go to Qingxuan Sect to find Han Yan. Then he, Han Yan and Qing Chan would go to Montenegro to meet Zhang Zhixuan.
According to Zhang Zhixuan's intention, returning with the Ma family's transport team will take a long time and the risk will be greater. Secondly, the Ma family may be jealous. Then there will be ghosts on their way, and it will be very troublesome to cooperate with the Black Mountain scattered cultivators. .
It would be better to go to Qingxuanzong to find Han Yan. When Zhang Zhixuan gets off Heishan, the four of them will fly with their swords. It only takes about twenty days to return to Heishan safely.
There are four foundation-building monks accompanying them, and the Black Mountain monks still don't know the details of the Zhang family, so they may not dare to take action. Moreover, the four of them help each other, so even if there is danger on the road, it will be easier to return to Black Mountain.
Zhang Leqian made up his mind and immediately went to Qingxuanzong to find Han Yan.
After six or seven years of practice, Han Yan's practice has progressed relatively quickly, and he has broken through to the fourth level of Foundation Establishment in the past few years and has become a mid-stage Foundation Establishment monk.
In exchange for the Jade Bee Pill for the Zhang family, Han Yan promised to take care of the white jade beehive for Qingxuanzong for thirty years. Now only eleven years have passed, and Han Yan has no free time to go down the mountain.
In order to go to Montenegro to rescue Zhang Zhixuan, Han Yan could only plead with Li Zigong, the elder in charge of the Qingxuan Sect's General Affairs Hall, to agree to extend the mission for another five years before taking a one-year leave to leave the mountain.
Time was running out, and Han Yan barely had time to greet the clan leader, so the two hurriedly returned to Lushan. Before Han Yan had time to meet her mother, the two went to Lingjing Mountain to find Qingchan, and immediately rushed to Heishan in a vigorous and resolute manner.
Four months have passed from the time the clan leader received the letter to the time the three of them arrived in Black Mountain.
Zhang Zhixuan has been in Montenegro for almost a year and a half after receiving the Foundation Establishment Pill.
In the past year and a half, he has never left Montenegro. His cautious and prudent approach made the monks who secretly calculated him hate him, but there was nothing they could do against him.
Zhang Zhixuan was sitting in the Baibao Pavilion cultivating when he suddenly received a messenger from the clan leader. After being trapped in the Black Mountain for more than a year, Zhang Zhixuan already felt seriously bored.
Hearing that the three clan leaders were already waiting thirty miles away from Black Mountain, Zhang Zhixuan immediately put away the letter, quickly took two Foundation Establishment Pills, and left Black Mountain immediately.
As soon as Zhang Zhixuan left, three sword lights immediately followed him.
Several people descended from Heishan one after another. Just thirty miles outside of Heishan, several Heishan cultivators were ready to catch up and take action. Suddenly, they found that three sword lights were flying quickly, tightly protecting Zhang Zhixuan in the middle.
These three sword lights are none other than the clan leaders, Han Yan and Qing Chan. Among the three of them, there are already two monks in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment.
Even Qing Chan, who has just established the foundation, is also equipped with a top-quality magic weapon, and the conditions are far better than when Zhang Zhixuan just established the foundation. On her body, not only is the third-level high-grade soul-inducing flag, but also the aura given to her by Zhang Zhixuan after she established the foundation. Sword and Tiger Tooth Dagger.
The Spiritual Light Sword is Lu Yi'an's flying sword. It was rarely used after being captured by Zhang Zhixuan. Qing Chan gave it to her after building the foundation. The Tiger Tooth Dagger was a dagger made by Chen Hongyuan using the teeth of the Canglan Tiger and was also given to Qing Chan by Zhang Zhixuan. .
A monk on the seventh level of the foundation saw a few sword lights, his face suddenly changed, and he cursed bitterly: "It's Zhang Leqian, the bastard, who is here. As long as this bastard can't be beaten, he will use the fourth-level thunder talisman to hit people.
Decades ago, a Yuangang thunder talisman severely damaged Wei Mazi's vitality and made a monk on the eighth level of the Foundation a weakling for decades. A dozen years ago, a Tiangang divine thunder talisman even blew up the unlucky guy Lu Yi'an. Turn into ashes and disappear into smoke.
Forget it, who knows if this son of a bitch like Zhang Leqian still has the fourth-level thunder talisman in his hand. It would be better to have a monk from the Zifu period as an ancestor!"
Seeing that the leading late-stage foundation-building monk retreated, another mid-stage foundation-building monk also looked ugly and cursed: "Although this little bastard Zhang Zhixuan is young, he is also cunning. He has not revealed any loopholes in the past year and a half. He With Zhang Leqian and Zhang Hanyan, three mid-stage foundation-building monks, plus a strange foundation-building monk who still has a third-level high-grade magic weapon, but the Zhang family does not have the divine thunder talisman, the three of us may not have a chance of winning this transaction. We can’t do it anymore, the risk is too great.”
The three of them discussed it and felt that the risk was already very high, so they reluctantly returned to Montenegro and gave up the trouble of Zhang Zhixuan and others.
