Cultivation begins in the endless sea.

Chapter 35 Working Together

Lin Qing sat upright in the main seat, and upon hearing this, she slightly raised her eyes and glanced at everyone.

Without saying anything more, he waved his hand, and a jade bottle flew out of his storage bag.

With a gentle flick, a pale yellow pill the size of a chicken egg spun out.

"Foundation Pill!"

Lin Shenglei suddenly stood up!

Others may not have seen it, but he personally took one, so he knows whether it's real or fake.

"You actually...!"

"This is impossible, this is impossible..."

His throat bobbed, but the second half of the sentence got stuck in his throat and he couldn't say it. Lin Shenglei's face turned pale and then red, and he was incredulous.

This nephew of mine from the clan has actually managed to reach the High-Grade Foundation Establishment stage!

Upon realizing this, he subconsciously glanced at the surrounding clansmen, and inexplicably sensed an indescribable scrutinizing quality in their gazes…

Lin Qing watched as Lei Bo's face grew increasingly grim, even somewhat ferocious, not far away.

A chill ran through him, and he softly called out, "Reber!"

Lin Shenglei was immediately startled, and cold sweat instantly soaked his back.

"This...this is a real Foundation Establishment Pill."

After saying that, he seemed relieved and leaned back in his chair, slowly closing his eyes.

"Reber's state of mind."

Lin Qing recalled the secret jade slip left by the ancestor before the demon-slaying operation: it was very strange that the Starry Sky Sect knew about Lin Yunfeng's superior spiritual root back then...

Seeing that Lin Shenglei had personally confirmed the Foundation Establishment Pill, the others didn't have time to think too much and started asking about the special exchange points.

"Clan leader, if I could provide a second-tier pill recipe, how many special exchange points could I exchange for it?"

Lin Shengkui's expression shifted, and he asked first.

"Well, the price of a second-tier pill depends on the specific pill; it should be around 700 to 1000 special exchange points."

……

With this as a comparison, the rest of the people understood much more clearly.

Family contribution points can be exchanged for basic cultivation resources.

Other contributions, such as those mentioned above, such as offering pill recipes and participating in demon-slaying operations, can be considered family achievements and exchanged for special points.

Now that things have come to this point, the rest can be carried out naturally.

That precious Foundation Establishment Pill was also locked in the core area of ​​the clan's treasury.

……

The first person to come to Lin Qing's door was a complete surprise.

It turned out to be Lin Shengyuan, who had always kept a low profile.

Lin Qing didn't have a deep impression of this uncle. He only remembered that when he met this Uncle Yuan when he was a child, he was always practicing alone in the courtyard, muttering to himself while making hand seals and circulating his energy.

"The allure of women in this world will only disrupt my swordplay!"

After the meeting today, his face flushed, he hurriedly straightened his slightly wrinkled outer garment, and forced himself to explain:

"Sword techniques are complex, easy to learn but difficult to master."

"I have already abandoned my sword."

"Modify the spear!"

Lin Qing chuckled inwardly, almost unable to suppress it on her face. After a moment of digestion, she said encouragingly, "I've remembered everything Uncle Yuan said."

"We'll have someone look out for suitable women for you!"

Lin Shengyuan nodded hurriedly, his face flushed, and ran away quickly.

It took about ten days to sort out the mundane affairs.

Next, he invited Yunzhou and the Shen couple to come over.

Last time, I accidentally discovered that Shen was meticulous and had a strong insight, but unfortunately she was a mortal and could not cultivate.

Otherwise, I'll make her learn the formation techniques from the Hundred Arts of Immortal Cultivation!

Formations are highly dependent on talent.

The purpose of this mission was firstly to have the couple observe whether their son, Lin Shengqian, possessed any talent for array formations.

Secondly, they wanted to ask Ms. Shen for help, to act as a "matchmaker" for marriage.

"Ah? Could it be that the clan leader has found someone he loves? What a lucky girl!"

Seeing that her husband remained silent, Shen Zhishu had no choice but to speak up.

Upon hearing this, Lin Qing shook his head awkwardly and then laid out his three strategies for family reform.

The more Shen Zhishu listened, the brighter her eyes became. She couldn't help but glance at her husband, Lin Yunzhou, who gave her an encouraging look.

Shen Zhishu was gentle and graceful. She first gave a slight bow before slowly speaking:

"The clan leader's three strategies have determined the fate of the nation; they can be considered a long-term plan."

"Since you have invited my husband and me here, it means you trust us. Then I will humbly offer my humble opinion."

"Firstly, marriage should not only consider one's character and physical attributes, but also family traditions, upbringing, personality, and conduct. Otherwise, forcing a marriage will lead to endless troubles."

Lin Qing nodded.

Secondly…

As the woman in front of him spoke eloquently, Lin Qing finally understood what it meant for women to be just as capable as men.

Feeling very satisfied, he naturally asked her to draft a plan and hand it over to the clan elder.

This matter will be rewarded with 200 clan contribution points.

Encouraged by this, many clansmen followed suit and offered their suggestions. For example, Lin Yunyue wrote a brief plan for Lin Hexuan to reopen its business.

On the one hand, the Su family spared no effort in searching for any clues about the pirates in the market, and on the other hand, they spent hundreds of thousands of spirit stones to start the reconstruction of Wanfu Market.

Su Mangxia, the current head of the Su family and the seventh-level foundation cultivator, immediately made a promise: all old shops in the market will be given a five-year rent-free period as compensation, and a full renovation subsidy will be provided.

The new market offers preferential conditions such as reduced or waived entry fees, gradually restoring the market's vitality.

……

After a flurry of activity, Lin Qing finally had time to return to his new cave dwelling on the mountaintop and begin his secluded cultivation during the Foundation Establishment stage.

First, he organized his storage bag. Although it had shrunk considerably since his underwater dive, it still contained quite a few good items.

A first-tier superior-grade Meteor Blade magic weapon.

First-tier superior quality: the three-star conch boat from the eagle-eyed man and the spirit net from the withered old man.

A first-grade superior item, a black shield given by his father, and the "Yuan Yi" alchemy furnace bestowed by his ancestor.

First-tier mid-grade items include the Azure Lotus Sword, the Mysterious Water Furnace, and the Wave-Stabilizing Mirror.

Those things, such as the water-attribute seal of the withered old man and the precious pearl of the burly man, all exploded and turned to ashes when they escaped the attack of the sea beasts.

Upon thinking of this, Lin Qing narrowed his eyes.

"I urgently need a set of magical implements that can be used freely in water."

He recalled some information from his previous life on the blue planet, such as adding upper and lower tail fins to the end of the flying sword, and installing a catapult device at the front of the shield, etc.

Lin Qing sketched these ideas and stuffed them, along with the Azure Lotus Sword, the Spirit Net, and some refining materials, into his father Lin Shenghong's hands.

Lin Shenghong has already taken on a disciple named Lin Yunpu. Lin Yunpu is only in his early twenties, but he has already reached the fourth level of Qi Refining. He is taciturn and reserved, but extremely intelligent and eager to learn.

Upon seeing Lin Qing's imaginative design drawings, Lin Yunpu, with his small eyes, couldn't help but lean closer and study them with great interest, muttering to himself in rare detail:

"My sixth brother is really something else."

"Not only is he skilled at managing a household, but he also has such innovative ideas about weapon crafting!"

After reviewing it, Lin Yunpu couldn't help but offer some suggestions based on the actual situation, such as adjusting the size of the tail fin and optimizing the stability of the launcher...

When Wang Xiuyue, who came to deliver the spirit food, saw this scene, she couldn't help but shake her head.

"Another mentally challenged child!"
