Chapter 4
In the depths of the main hall, there are memorial tablets for the ancestors of the Bai family who have made outstanding contributions since they established themselves in the Heishan Mountains. On both sides are 24 long-lived candles that are as thick as arms, and the tablets flicker in the dim candlelight.

The middle-aged man sitting in the middle of the hall is Bai Xianzhong, the current patriarch of the Bai family. He cultivated in the early stage of foundation establishment and has been in charge of the family for 20 years. His reputation has grown stronger and stronger. It can be said that one person supports the whole of the Bai family.

There are four men and one woman on both sides, all monks in the late stage of Qi refining, in charge of one side of the Bai family's foundation, and they are the five elders in the family.

Further down, there are many columns according to the duties of each department and the level of cultivation. The crowd is crowded, and almost all the monks of the Bai family currently in the clan are present, and the atmosphere of the audience is quiet and dignified.

Bai Zichen and Baiying stood at the back, they were short in stature, even standing on tiptoe, they could only see the shoulders of the adults in front.

"Uncle seems to be in the second row. It seems that his status in the clan is not bad. After all, he is only one step away from the late stage of Qi refining. Once he breaks through, he will be the main force in the clan."

Like the two of them, if it weren't for the particularity of the whole clan assembly, as long as the monks of the Bai family could attend regardless of their age and cultivation level, they would not be eligible to enter this assembly hall at all.But it was just for display, no matter how the whole clan was discussing matters, it would not be the turn of two teenagers to intervene, and the attention of the rest was not on them.

Fatty Bai stretched his head and brain, looking very excited, and lowered his voice: "Brother Chen, have you heard from the patriarch that even the Qingfeng Sect has confirmed that it is the cave of Immortal Wuyue. Our Bai family will be able to excavate it this time. One or two treasures will be developed, maybe in a few years there will be a position in the five great cultivating families!"

Five Sacred Realm Chen Taige, who was known as the number one casual cultivator in Mizhou 300 years ago, was a late Jindan cultivator who was expected to hit the Nascent Soul Realm, and had a good reputation in the entire Liang Kingdom.

After returning to his hometown of Heishan County in his twilight years, the Qingfeng sect was even more overwhelmed. After all, although the elders in the sect are also Jindan real people, they are far behind Chen Taige, the number one casual cultivator in Mizhou.

Chen Taige's natal magic weapon is a set of heavy magic weapons in the shape of five mountain peaks, which is why he got his title. The five peaks came out together, and countless monks died under this magic weapon.

However, this real person seems to have no successors, and the disciples who followed him quickly dispersed, but several magic weapons including the Five Sacred Peaks were gone.

At that time, some people speculated that Master Wuyue still had a real treasure cave in the dark, and there was a wave of treasure hunting within a hundred years after his death.After a long time, it slowly faded away.

Bai Zichen carefully recalled the records about the Immortal Wuyue in the Heishan county annals, and couldn't help but be fascinated by it.

"The key to Wuyue Immortal Cave Mansion is the attitude of Qingfengmen. If they are willing to share a mouthful of soup with us, it is good, but if they want to monopolize this opportunity and exclude all Xiuxian families, our Bai family will do their best. I'm afraid I can only lose my wife and lose my army if I try my best."

The elder Bai Shoushun, who has white beard and hair but a rosy complexion, is as energetic as a bell. He is not only a great master of Qi refining, but also has a high seniority in his family, "Honggu, your Jiang Liang comes from the Qingfeng sect, and the master is the elder of Fudian." position, has he heard any news from the sect, what are those big figures planning?"

In Heishan County, the Qingfeng Sect insists on one thing, occupying the best and most resources, and has a faint confrontation with the rest of the Cultivation Clan.

But after so many years, I have long been in you, and you in me.

Like the Bai family, there are more than ten disciples worshiping into the sect from generation to generation. Elder Honggu's Taoist partner was also an inner sect disciple of Qingfeng sect. A top-rank talisman master.

"Brother Liang sent a letter over yesterday. The opinion of the elders of Qingfeng Sect is to unite with several cultivating families, first enclose the Wuyue Daoist cave and drive away casual cultivators, and then slowly develop it..."

The only woman among the five elders was a middle-aged beautiful woman with a plump figure and a slight trace of wind and frost in the corner of her eyes. After a moment of pondering, she said slowly.

"It's good to have the opportunity to cooperate. Our family contributes a lot of resources to Qingfengmen every year, and we will actively respond to any orders. This time, we should not be left alone."

"It's hard to say, those five families are powerful, if they really want to join forces, even the Qingfeng Sect will have a headache, and they will definitely be scruples about their ideas."

It was said to be a family meeting, but it was actually a discussion among the five elders. Occasionally, Bai Xianzhong would say something, and everyone immediately stopped to listen, and the discussion continued after he finished speaking.Regardless of their identities, none of the rest of the tribe dared to speak unless they were called by the elders.

Bai Zichen hid at the back, leaning against a beam and listened with great interest. How could he know the various families in Heishan County and so many ways in his own clan just by reading, many of which are places that he needs to pay attention to when he walks in the world of cultivating immortals in the future.

"...Then it's settled like this. Tomorrow, Honggu and Bailu will bring a group of clansmen and set off with me to Wuyue Zhenren's Cave Mansion. The clan affairs will be handed over to the elder. In addition, the patrol team will cheer me up and send more people. , Increase the number of patrols, and use thunder methods when necessary, and the recent gathering of loose cultivators, so as not to have evil thoughts coming towards my Bai family."

With the decision of the patriarch Bai Xianzhong, the next action of the Bai family was decided.

Leaving a foundation cultivator, two elders, and a team of elite family monks at once will inevitably leave a lot of power inside the Bai family. Bai Zichen suddenly felt that the family was not as safe as imagined, and the original plan for steady development might be lost. After changing it, I am still too weak.

A boy who has just successfully refined Qi has not yet learned any spells, and has no means of life-saving in his hands. Even a few grown men with weapons can threaten him.

……

"Chen'er, here are five Vajra Talismans, five Fireball Talismans, and five Divine Movement Talismans. I have already taught you how to use them last night. You must memorize them well."

Bai Jiu'an stroked Bai Zichen's head, and said earnestly, "During the time when uncle is not at home, don't run around, live well on Qingfengya with Baiying's family, and don't go back to Fufengling for now."

"Uncle, I understand." Bai Zichen nodded honestly.

As soon as the clan meeting ended yesterday, Bai Jiu'an received a notice and was selected into a team of 12 people, and went to Wuyue Daoist Cave Mansion together with the patriarch.

The fate of the family cannot be violated, not to mention that there are great risks in it, and naturally it is accompanied by great opportunities.

He is a monk with four spiritual roots, and he is less than ten years away from the window of 50-year-old qi and blood decay. If he still wants to rush to the foundation-building stage, there is no chance if he doesn't risk his life.

But my little nephew, who has just embarked on the fairy road, can rest assured. The Bai family has arranged a large formation centered on Hanxiu Peak, but the fringe areas only have the basic functions of early warning and blindness, and only the formation within the range of the main peak can truly protect Kill the enemy.

After much deliberation, he simply entrusted Bai Zichen to Bai Ying's parents. Both of them are mid-stage Qi-refining monks, and they have the power to protect themselves when encountering robbery. The family patrol team can arrive after a little delay.

At the same time, in order to give this little nephew some strength to protect himself, he stuffed a bunch of talismans over.

It is said that human relations in the world of cultivating immortals are weak, and friends, clansmen, even Taoist couples and masters and apprentices in front of benefits can betray, but Bai Zichen still feels the true care from his uncle.

After explaining the matter and saying hello to Bai Ying's parents, Bai Jiu'an left in a hurry, looking at his back, Bai Zichen felt a little heavy in his heart.

It was the worry about the uncertain future of his uncle's trip, the anxiety about his own low cultivation, and the confusion about the fate of the Bai family amidst the turmoil.

Once a family member like him loses the protection of his family, he will be like the lowest casual cultivator in the future, wandering in wind and rain, without a fixed place to live.
