It was another family dinner. This year, Lin Jiang was 47 years old, which was his 30th year since he came here through time travel, and he was still at the fourth level of Qi training. There were

more and more members of the Lin family, and there were already more than 20 tables full of people. The courtyard of the ancestral house was almost not enough. In a few years, it might have to be expanded.

"Father"

Lin Shan was already very old. He was already 78 years old. He was reluctant to take the Dingyan Pill. With a head full of white hair, he became the oldest person present.

"Shan'er, sit down."

Lin Batian sighed and asked Lin Shan to sit down. Lin Shan was born to his wife and was also his first child. He loved Lin Shan the most.

But his most beloved son failed to break through the foundation-building stage, and he could only watch him grow old day by day. Time was ruthless, and there was not much time left for Lin Shan.

Sitting next to Lin Shan was Lin He. He broke through the foundation-building stage. Even though he was in his 70s, he still looked like a middle-aged man.

Next to Lin He is Lin Die. She is also fifty-five years old, but she looks younger, about twenty years old, and she has not taken the Dingyan Pill.

The fourth child, Lin Yuan, has married and lives with her husband's family in another place. She is rarely present at the year-end dinner, so the fifth child, Lin Hai, sits next to Lin Die. Lin Hai, who is in his fifties, looks OK.

Lin Jiang's younger brothers and sisters are all young and will not worry about their lifespan in the short term. Their eyes are all on Lin Batian. They hope to get Lin Batian's affirmation or encouragement. Children all hope to be loved by their father. In

the third generation of the Lin family, more and more people have grown up. Even in the fourth generation, half of them have already embarked on the path of cultivation, as if they have become adults.

The happiest ones should be those children under the age of twelve. They have not had their spiritual roots tested, have no pressure to cultivate, and still retain their innocence. In their view, the year-end dinner is like the New Year, an opportunity to eat and drink as much as they can. Lin Batian also specially asked them to make food with low spiritual energy content for them, which is very delicious.

"This year, the Lin family has developed well, and the income has increased steadily. No one in the family has died. Nine more people have been added, and three more have been added..."

Since a few years ago, Lin Batian would summarize the situation of the Lin family this year on this day, such as what major events have occurred.

This year, the Lin family has added nine people, including the wife who was married into the family, the concubines are not counted, and the newly born population. The three new additions mean that three people in the new generation of the Lin family have been tested for spiritual roots, and they are considered to be the Lin family's young people. Those without spiritual roots are not considered to be Lin family members. This is realistic and cruel.

"This year, the Lin family has added a large magic weapon, which is the soul lamp. After dinner, each of you will go to the ancestral hall and leave your blood and soul. The low-level Wu Guanshi will help you. This soul lamp is a standard for large families. It can know your situation. If you are in danger, you can also ask the family for rescue."

Finally, Lin Batian said that the price of a large magic weapon is very high. He spent more than 100,000 spirit stones on this soul lamp and specially asked someone to customize it.

Soul lamps have many benefits. The clan members put their blood and spirit into them. When the lamp is on, the person is alive, and when the person dies, the lamp goes out. It can check the safety of the clan members. In addition, when they encounter danger and activate the secret technique, the soul lamp will provide guidance. At that time, the clan members can send people to support them. It is a necessary magic weapon for large families.

After dinner, Lin Jiang followed everyone to the ancestral hall. Manager Wu was already waiting there. Starting from the eldest brother, each person forced out a drop of blood, and Manager Wu would also extract a wisp of spirit. It was not a big deal for the cultivators. They would recover after ten days or half a month of recuperation.

"The soul goes into the soul lamp, and the blood essence goes into the soul tablet. You must keep this soul tablet well. It is related to your life. If you encounter danger outside in the future, you can activate the soul tablet. The soul lamp will provide guidance and roughly determine your location. The tribe will then send experts to rescue you.

The soul tablet will also react to the tribe members who are close to you. You can consider whether to provide support. Generally speaking, the tribe supports you to help each other."

Manager Wu said to everyone while holding a soul tablet. This is a magic tool that matches the soul lamp. It will also be the identity certificate of the tribe members in the future. Don't lose it. It will be very troublesome if you lose it.

Soon it was Lin Jiang's turn. He forced out his blood essence in the same way. Manager Wu helped to draw out a wisp of soul. Manager Wu put the soul into an oil lamp. The oil lamp suddenly burst into flames, and the flame was brighter than that of the third child, Lin Die.

"It's strange, why is your aura so much brighter than that of the third young lady?"

Manager Wu was very surprised. The sixth young master's soul lamp was brighter than that of the third young lady. It was strange. Isn't it true that the longer the lifespan, the brighter the soul lamp? Look at the eldest young master Lin Shan's, the light is as small as soybeans. Lin Die is now the one with the highest cultivation among the second generation of the Lin family and is almost in the late stage of foundation building.

"It is rare for mortals to live to 70, but there are people who can live to 100. I am afraid of death and good at keeping in good health. I think I can live to 150. This is normal."

Lin Jiang quickly made up a reason. He looked at the system and found that his life span had exceeded 10,000 years. The entire Lin family could not live as long as him. It would be strange if the soul lamp did not light up.

"Sixth Young Master is right."

Manager Wu scanned Lin Jiang three times with his spiritual sense and confirmed that Lin Jiang was still at the fourth level of Qi training. He was not someone else's fake, so he didn't care so much.

Lin Jiang left quickly and went to chat with Lin Die and visit the eldest brother Lin Shan. If nothing unexpected happened, the eldest brother Lin Shan would be the first one to pass away in this second generation. Time waits for no one. Maybe he will not be seen in a few years.

After the New Year, Lin Jiang went to Anhua City with Lin Die and Lin Ying again, pretending to buy Dingyan Dan, but in fact, Lin Jiang was reluctant to spend the money. Dingyan Dan cost more than 20,000 spirit stones, which was his entire annual income for more than three years. He had to save for more than five years before he was reluctant to spend it.

After this trip, Lin Jiang's appearance problem was solved. For at least 20 to 30 years, no one would doubt his appearance, and he could continue to stay in the Lin family.

The next thing was to take care of Zhuang Rong in her old age and prepare to leave the Lin family. Zhuang Rong was now 68 years old, and Lin Jiang didn't know how long she could live. He just needed to be filial to Zhuang Rong.

On the other hand, Lin Jiang's wealth was increasing. He accumulated about 500 spiritual stones every year. He had accumulated it for more than ten years, and he had saved more than 6,000 spiritual stones. He was richer than many people in the Lin family.

Because Lin Jiang didn't have the support of his family, he spent much less on cultivation than them. Most of the Lin family, including other cultivators, put their money into cultivation, but Lin Jiang didn't. His cultivation time was fixed, so his expenses were also fixed. Now he had an additional expense of drawing talismans every year.

But Lin Jiang's income was also increasing. Lingtao Villa was becoming more and more mature, with a full range of industries and richer experience. His income was increasing bit by bit.

"Jiang'er, look at the clothes your mother made for you. Try them on and see if they fit you."

One day, Zhuang Rong showed Lin Jiang a piece of clothing. In recent years, Zhuang Rong has been keen on making clothes for Lin Jiang.

At first, it was ordinary cloth, then it started to upgrade, buying cloth woven by spiritual objects, and finally raising silkworms and weaving cloth by herself.

This silkworm was bought by Lin Jiang from Anhua City through someone else. The silk it spits is extremely tough, and even mortal warriors can't cut it with swords. If it were placed among mortals, it would be a divine object.

"How can it not fit me? I like it very much. Thank you mother,"

Lin Jiang said. Lin Jiang was very moved by the thread in the hands of a loving mother. It took Zhuang Rong two years to make this dress, because there were not many spiritual silkworms, and it took two years to accumulate enough silk. "It's

good that you like it. I can make one for you every year in the future, enough for you to wear for decades."

"This one can also be worn for decades."

Lin Jiang smiled bitterly. Clothes made of this spiritual silkworm silk will not wear out even after fifty years.

"Hey, my only wish now is to see you get married and your children born. There are so many sisters in the family, but I am the only one who has not become a grandmother."

Zhuang Rong sighed. Lin Batian has many wives and concubines. Except for those who have just entered the house, the others have become grandmothers or grandmothers. Only she has no children and children.

"Mom, I am still thinking about building a foundation."

"Hehe"

Zhuang Rong rolled her eyes. This is a lie. Lin Jiang is almost fifty years old, and he is still at the fourth level of Qi training. How can he build a foundation ?

"Really, at most five years, I will be at the fifth level of Qi training."

"After sixty years old, everything is over. Your sister has built a foundation before she was thirty. You, while you can still have children, have a few children, and mother will take care of your children."

"Ahem, I see that the sand sculptures have caught prey again. I'll go and see."

Lin Jiang immediately found an excuse to escape. Zhuang Rong had given up the idea of ​​getting Lin Jiang married a few years ago, but it came up again in the past two years, and it became more and more firm.

Unfortunately, Lin Jiang's reputation as the shame of the Lin family is too loud. Even though he owns a manor, he cannot find a cultivator as a blind date, which makes Zhuang Rong very angry. She does not want Lin Jiang's wife to be a mortal and give birth to mortal offspring. In the world of cultivators, mortals are too miserable.
