However, as time went by, the ascension channel no longer opened, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth became increasingly scarce.
Cultivating with multiple spiritual roots becomes increasingly difficult.
Sometimes, before they even have a chance to break through their cultivation level, their time may come.
On the contrary, cultivators with a single spiritual root, who only cultivate one flexible root, break through to higher levels much faster than those with multiple spiritual roots.
Gradually, people's thinking changed, and they felt that having a single spiritual root was better than having multiple spiritual roots.
When in Rome, do as the Romans do. For Lin Jiujiu, the amount of spiritual root she possessed made no difference.
As for the Lin family, she doesn't plan to let them pursue multiple paths simultaneously. Once they reach the Foundation Establishment stage, they can choose the path they want to take.
Then, she could find a way to help them wash away the excess spiritual roots; it wouldn't be a troublesome matter.
Lin Jiujiu finally breathed a sigh of relief when the last person had entered a meditative state.
She took out a table and two chairs from her spatial storage and casually tossed them into the open space. Then she nodded to Baili Chenyuan, and the two sat down one after the other.
The two sipped their tea while observing the movements of the Lin family.
The first person to wake up from cultivation was surprisingly Hu's mother, which was not unexpected.
Her health was already poor. Although she received spiritual nourishment during her time at the Lin family and had medicinal meals specially prepared for them by Lin Jiujiu, she still couldn't compare to others.
Given her advanced age, it's not surprising that she would end her cultivation so soon.
When Lin Jiujiu saw that she had woken up, she nodded silently to her.
Mrs. Hu was not too disappointed to find that she was the first to wake up.
After nodding to Lin Jiujiu, he tiptoed over and sat down next to her.
Lin Jiujiu glanced at her and realized that although she had woken up early, she had already reached the seventh level of Qi Refining, which was quite impressive.
Lin Jiujiu took out a jade bottle from her sleeve, took out a pill from it, and handed it to her.
"This is a Spirit-Stabilizing Pill. You've only just started cultivating, and your breakthrough is too fast, making your realm unstable. Take this pill first to stabilize your cultivation."
Hearing her say that, Hu's mother naturally did not object. After swallowing the pill, she found a place not far from Lin Jiujiu, closed her eyes, and meditated to refine the power of the pill.
As time went by, about half an hour after Hu's mother woke up, Lin's mother and Hu's mother also woke up one after another, followed by Lin's father, Lin Yun'er, Liang Xing and Lin Ze.
Their cultivation levels were all at the eighth or ninth stage of Qi Refining.
What surprised Lin Jiujiu the most was that Lin Yun'er actually reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining.
It seems to be just a little short of achieving foundational status.
Even so, she wasn't the last one to wake up among these people, nor did she have the best spiritual root.
After a moment's thought, Lin Jiujiu understood that this was probably related to the hardships she had endured in the Liang family over the years.
Her temperament has been tempered to be more resilient than that of others.
As for not building a foundation in one go, Lin Jiujiu didn't feel it was a pity. In fact, it was a good thing for her to solidify her foundation now.
After Lin Jiujiu checked everyone and confirmed that there were no problems,
Naturally, each person received a Spirit-Stabilizing Pill to stabilize their cultivation.
At this moment, Lin Jiujiu also got up from her chair.
With his gaze fixed on the person still inside the Spirit Gathering Array, a mysterious fluctuation emanated from the air, indicating that someone was about to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.
Lin Jiujiu's gaze swept over them one by one, and she discovered that the first person to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage was actually Lin Xiaomei.
However, she seemed a little too impatient and lacked the proper method, which instead caused her internal spiritual energy to surge violently.
It seems there's a strong possibility that it could explode and die at any moment.
Lin Jiujiu hurriedly went out, pointed a finger at her brow, forcibly entered her sea of consciousness, and shouted in a deep voice.
"Hold fast to your original intention and calm your mind."
Then, he used his own spiritual power to envelop the turbulent spiritual energy and force it to quiet down.
Then, they were guided little by little into Lin Xiaomei's meridians.
It gently cleanses her meridians, gradually widening them.
Although she tried her best to control her speed, the tearing pain still made Lin Xiaomei want to quit her cultivation.
Just then, Lin Jiujiu's cool voice entered her mind.
"If you can't even endure this little bit of hardship, I advise you to give up cultivation as soon as possible and live a peaceful and wealthy life in the mortal world."
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaomei felt a surge of resentment.
She didn't want to give up; she didn't want her whole family to follow her sister to cultivate immortality, leaving her the only one left behind.
As this sense of resentment intensified, the physical pain was completely forgotten, as if she had simply forgotten the unbearable agony.
Gradually, she began to re-enter a state of cultivation.
This time, Lin Jiujiu didn't need to guide her; she started to cleanse her meridians herself by drawing in spiritual energy.
After repeatedly cleansing and expanding, she would then begin to draw spiritual energy into her body. Once the vital energy within her body was saturated, she would start cleansing her meridians again, repeating this cycle over and over again.
Even when the pain turned his face pale and his forehead was covered in sweat, he did not give up.
Seeing this, Lin Jiujiu slowly withdrew her hand.
He was quite satisfied, thinking to himself that the little girl was quite clever and had even learned to apply what she had learned to other situations.
Perhaps for this reason, even after Lin Yu, Lin Luo, Liang Yu, and Liang Hua had all regained consciousness, Lin Xiaomei continued.
Meanwhile, Tantai Haoze and Ning Yi had already entered the Foundation Establishment stage.
Tantai Haoze stopped at the second level of Foundation Establishment, which was many times more monstrous than when his self-proclaimed genius uncle first started cultivating.
He was so happy he didn't know what to do. If he hadn't seen Xiaodouding, Lin Xiaomei, and Ning Yi still continuing, he probably would have been dancing with joy.
Lin Jiujiu looked at the sky; it was almost 3 AM. The child was still growing, so she said to her mother.
"Mother, you should take everyone to rest first. They won't be finished anytime soon. I'll stay here and keep watch."
Lin's mother wanted to say that she wasn't tired, but then she saw Lin Jiujiu's eyes fall on the children.
Thinking that having so many of them here might disturb their younger sister, Chen'er and Ning Yi didn't say anything more.
He simply waved to a few children.
"Let's go back first."
After the group left, Baili Chenyuan set up another barrier so that their normal lives outside wouldn't affect them here.
In the end, Ning Yi was the first of the three to wake up; his cultivation had stalled at the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment stage.
Lin Jiujiu didn't rush him to leave, but instead let him stabilize his cultivation first.
Lin Xiaomei also stopped around dawn, her cultivation level halted at the ninth level of Foundation Establishment.
She had tried using spiritual energy to cleanse and expand her meridians, but she found that this method was not very effective, so she had to stop.
In the end, only the little bean was left. Although he had been cultivating for the longest time among them, his cultivation level was not high, and he was still far from reaching the Foundation Establishment stage.
Most importantly, he still shows no signs of waking up.
