Chapter 264 New System Functions, Ten Rights, Purple Mansion Spiritual Objects

The eighth-rank noble family was officially canonized.

But I don’t know how much family contribution value the system will give.

Fu Changsheng's thought moved, and the aristocratic jade seal trembled slightly and instantly sank into his body.

After taking out the jade talisman to inform Fu Yongfan.

In less than ten breaths, Fu Yongfan appeared in the patriarch's mansion like a gust of wind.

Promoted to an eighth-rank family.

This matter is finally settled!
Fu Yongfan, who had been calm since childhood, could not help but get excited. After Fu Changsheng confirmed that the imperial court had issued the title, he smiled with curved eyebrows:
"Father, should we set the date of the celebration on the fifteenth of next month? This month is almost over, and there is no suitable date at the beginning of the month. The nearest one is the fifteenth of next month."

"Well, you can take care of the celebration yourself. By the way, when the time comes to send out the invitations, let your Aunt Molan personally deliver the invitations to the seventh-rank Luo family."

Once promoted to the eighth rank.

Then their Fu family would be on the same level as the Shangguan family.

If I'm not mistaken, it should also be under the rule of the Luo family.

Fu Yong nodded hurriedly:
"Father, just leave these small matters to me. You can go to the Zhenshi Division to receive the title without any worries."

Fu Yongfan wished he could see the enthronement document immediately.

After watching Fu Changsheng leave, he sent a message to Molan in Yunxiao Mountain, and then rushed to the Water Curtain Cave in the back mountain without stopping.

After taking the Sichuan-Yu Pill given by Fu Changsheng, Fairy Cai's complexion improved significantly. She looked more than ten years younger. She was dozing off on a recliner in the Spiritual Medicine Courtyard.

But the old man is shallow after all.

As soon as Fu Yongfan entered the Water Curtain Cave, she heard footsteps.

Seeing Fu Yongfan in such a hurry, he was stunned for a moment, then said:
"Brother Fan, could it be that the Patriarch has given you the Foundation Establishment Pill?"

"No, there is something more worthy of joy. Mother, guess what it is?"

Cai Xiangu looked confused.

Is there anything in this world that is more joyful than being able to build a foundation?

Fu Yongfan didn't keep the secret any longer, took a deep breath, and said solemnly:
"Mother, father just received news that the imperial court's canonization document has been issued, and father has already set off to the Zhenshi Division to confer the title. Our Fu family has been officially canonized as an eighth-rank family!"

"really?"

Cai Xiangu was so happy that she stood up from the recliner in a flash. After confirming it again and again, she was so happy that she kept shouting several good words.

Then his eyes suddenly turned red:

"I still remember the first time I met the head of the family. He was only fifteen years old, and he had to shoulder the heavy burden of revitalizing the family. There was a threat from the East Wilderness tribe outside, and the other four major Qi Refining families in Anyang County were eyeing them covetously. At that time, the entire Anyang County was not optimistic about your father. They thought that the Fu family would not be able to hold out for more than two years and would be completely replaced by other families."

"It's your father who has the best of both worlds."

"I have been pulling the entire Fu family step by step to where we are today."

“Things that others may think are going smoothly are actually a result of many hardships. It is really not easy.”

"Brother Fan"

"As our family has been promoted, its business has also expanded. As your father's eldest son, I hope that after you build your foundation, you can share some of the responsibilities with your father."

When people get old, they can’t help but babble.

However, these words came from the bottom of his heart, and Fu Yongfan took them seriously in his heart.

the other side.

After Fu Changsheng gave Fu Yongfan his instructions, he flashed a few times and left the fiefdom.

Led by Qingmang, they went all the way to Wanning Market.

Arrived at the gate of the market.

Fu Yongshang, who received the message in advance, wore festive clothes and waited early.

The guards guarding the city gate beside him were from the Cui and Qi families.

Qi San said with a hint of flattery and a smile:

"Brother Fu, when you have a wedding banquet, please remember to invite me as well. It's such a big event, so I should share in the good fortune."

Cui Xiaoqi, who was standing aside, looked at Fu Yongshang, who was in high spirits, but she felt envious, jealous and helpless.

in those days.

The first of the nine-rank noble families in Huainan was the Heike family. After the Heike family was destroyed, their Cui family took its place. It was thought that the last eighth-rank noble family would belong to their Cui family.

No one expected that the Fu family would emerge as a dark horse.

If the Fu family was gone.

Maybe he is the one receiving congratulations today.

Fu Yongshang laughed, and generously took out the prepared red envelopes from his sleeves, stuffed one into each of Qi San and Cui Xiaoqi, and said with a smile:

"Brother Qi, Brother Cui, our clan is planning to hold a celebration on the fifteenth of next month. You two must come over and have a few drinks then."

"sure"

Qi San accepted the red envelope with a smile.

What else do you want to say.

the other side.

Fu Yongshang saw the green python galloping towards him from afar, and immediately stopped talking. He bowed to Qi San and walked over quickly:
"Homeowner"

Fu Changsheng nodded slightly.

The two of them didn't have to queue and could enter directly through the side door of the city gate.

Fu Yongshang said happily:
"Master, we didn't dare to publicize the title before the imperial court conferred it upon us. Now that it has been officially conferred, I would like to take this opportunity to organize a big promotion in the store."

Whether it is individual travelers.

Still thinking about getting close to the Fu family.

Everyone will want to share in the good fortune, and since prices are falling steadily, the shops will surely usher in the first wave of revival after the beast tide.

Fu Changsheng smiled and said:
"You make up your mind."

The business side.

He was not even as good as Mei Zhen, let alone Fu Yongshang who had a talent for business since childhood.

Fu Yongshang got permission and took out a stack of red envelopes from his sleeve and handed them to Fu Changsheng: "Master, you should be able to use them when you arrive at the Zhenshi Division. If you don't have any other instructions, I will go to the store to prepare for the big customer promotion event."

Before going out.

Fu Changsheng didn't think about the red envelope.

After taking it.

Nodding slightly to him:
“You go and get busy.”

Fu Yongshang bowed, put his feet on the ground, and turned around to take care of the shop affairs.

When Fu Changsheng arrived at the gate of the Zhenshi Division, he saw that there were indeed more than a dozen guards guarding the gate than usual. When they saw him coming, they bowed and said:
"Congratulations to Patriarch Fu"

"Congratulations to the Fu family for advancing to the eighth rank!"

Fu Changsheng smiled and stuffed a red envelope into each person's pocket.

The guards who received the red envelopes were all smiling happily. With the blessing of being from an eighth-rank family, they believed that this year would be a smooth one for them.

Looking at Fu Changsheng's back.

The guards gathered together and whispered:
"The Fu family is truly blessed with great fortune. When they were weak and helpless, the Fu clan leader happened to save the only daughter of the Shangguan family's eldest elder. With this favor, the Fu family has been able to rise to prominence ever since."

"After being promoted to the ninth rank"

"I met our former Palace Master Cao again."

"Hey, Captain Cui, why do I hear such strong sourness in your words?"

Captain Cui naturally refused to admit it.

but.

Fu Changsheng is not only successful in his career, but also has many confidantes who are more beautiful and capable than the other.

Who wouldn’t be envious?

Hey.

How come he could only meet someone like Widow Wang?
Fu Changsheng stepped into the main hall.

But Palace Master Xu was wearing the solemn palace master's attire, his face was calm and serious, but there was a hint of joy in his eyes:
"Patriarch Fu, congratulations!"

talking.

From the tray held by the deputy hall master.

He held up the imperial decree with both hands respectfully.

The document was wrapped in exquisite brocade, on which was embroidered a golden dragon pattern, symbolizing royal majesty. Under the brilliant light of the main hall, the golden dragon seemed to be about to take off.

Palace Master Xu bowed in the direction of the imperial capital.

Then unfold the document.

As her lips opened slightly.

The clerk hummed.

Runes flew out one after another and condensed into a document of enthronement in the air.

When promoted to the ninth rank.

The documents for enthroning aristocratic families were drafted by the Zhenshisi.

But now he is an eighth-grade document.

Every word was written by Emperor Wu of Zhou himself.

Fu Changsheng bowed towards the direction of the imperial capital, his heart filled with excitement. At this moment, their Fu family was truly considered to be among the aristocratic families.

His eyes fell on the document in the air.

But it was written in bold words:
"I am the ruler of the world, and I have inherited the will of Heaven. The way to govern the country is to clearly distinguish between rewards and punishments, and to promote the virtuous and capable, and to commend the nobles and families who have made contributions.

The Fu family, since their ancestors, has always been loyal and righteous. When they were in the local area, they protected the country and the people, promoted schools and education, and benefited the community.

The members of the family are skilled in military strategy and defend their country on the border. When the beast tide hit, the Fu family was the first to bravely take the lead. The family members either joined the battle, or organized defense, or provided relief to the victims. They made outstanding contributions to the great cause of fighting the beast tide. They are truly a loyal and righteous family and a virtuous clan.

Now I and the ministers in the court have carefully considered this.

The Fu family's achievements, prestige, and family strength all meet the standards of an eighth-grade family. They are specially canonized as an eighth-grade family and are allowed to enjoy the corresponding rights and interests of an eighth-grade family.

I hope that after the promotion, the Fu family will not forget their original aspirations and continue to contribute to the prosperity of the court and the well-being of the people.

The family's character and style should be used as an example to lead the local fashion; the family's wisdom and strength should be used as the cornerstone to consolidate the foundation of the court. If there is any slackness or rebellion, the court will not forgive it easily.

Admire this! "

hum!
The canonization scripture trembled slightly.

It then transformed into a stream of purple air and sank into the ninth-grade aristocratic family jade seal in Fu Changsheng's body with a bang. The jade seal trembled slightly, and the original ninth-grade mark suddenly turned into an eighth-grade mark.

The entire jade seal.

With the blessing of the scriptures.

There was a bang.

It instantly leapt into a third-grade top-grade spiritual weapon.

Going one step further, it is the legendary magic weapon.

After Fu Changsheng was excited, he quickly calmed down. The document stated that their Fu family could enjoy the rights and interests of an eighth-grade family.

But there is no detailed list:
"Palace Master Xu, can you tell me what rights and interests the eighth-rank noble families enjoy?"

This is their main motivation and goal to be promoted to the eighth rank.

Palace Master Xu pointed to the armchair beside him and asked Fu Changsheng to sit down first. He then asked the Deputy Palace Master to serve the tea himself. After taking a sip, he slowly said:
"Promoted to the Eighth Rank"

“Ten benefits available”

"First, the tax revenue of your fiefdom will be reduced by 20% every year."

Fu Changsheng heard this.

A joy in my heart.

Compared to other families.

The Fu family’s stronghold and fiefdom are several times larger.

The amount of tax paid every year is a terrifying number. If it can be reduced by 20%, it will undoubtedly greatly reduce the expenses for the Fu family. "Secondly, your Fu family can select two Qi Refining clan members and one Foundation Building clan member to study at the Great Zhou Academy."

Da Zhou Academy?

It was the first time that Fu Changsheng heard of it.

Their place is too far away from the imperial capital, and the news is cut off:
"Palace Master Xu, can you tell me about the Great Zhou Academy?"

Palace Master Xu gently put down the teacup in his hand.

His face turned serious:
"The Great Zhou Academy is the highest institution of learning for cultivating talents in our dynasty. It has a long history that can be traced back to the founding of the country. The academy gathers the world's top scholars and Jindan Zhenren as teachers. Whether it is the method of cultivating immortals or the strategy of governing the country, there are detailed study courses."

There was a pause.

Palace Master Xu's eyes inadvertently revealed a sense of pride:
"There is a library in the academy, called the 'Wanxiang Pavilion', which contains countless precious classics and secret manuals of martial arts. Some of these classics were excavated from ancient ruins, and some were written by great scholars and immortal masters of past dynasties. Their value is immeasurable."

"Even the Wanxiang Pavilion contains the legendary Heaven-level Kung Fu."

Heaven-level technique? !
This Da Zhou Academy is clearly an opportunity for the noble families in remote areas to change their destiny.

Fu Changsheng's breathing suddenly became rapid.

Palace Master Xu continued:
"Moreover, the Great Zhou Academy is closely connected with the imperial court. Students who graduate from the academy and have the ambition to serve as officials in the imperial court are often given priority in recommendation. They are also more likely to be given important positions in the imperial court. After all, after being tempered by the academy, their talents and knowledge are incomparable to ordinary people."

"but"

Palace Master Xu changed the subject.

Shaking his head:
"The Great Zhou Academy has a strict assessment system. Many children from noble families, especially those from remote and inferior families, were exiled before they even spent a month in the academy."

"Like the Gongsun, Shi, and Nangong families in your Huainan Prefecture, the disciples they recommended all failed to even pass the entrance examination and were sent back to their fiefdoms in less than a month."

Fu Changsheng frowned.

The assessment system of the Great Zhou Academy is surprisingly so strict.

however.

Palace Master Xu hadn't finished speaking yet.

She pointed in the direction of Shangguan's house:
"It's good that they can be sent back to their fiefdom safely. The noble children that the Shangguan family sent there a few years ago died in the academy, without even a corpse left."

Fu Changsheng was shocked.

Entering the Great Zhou Academy, there is actually a danger to life:
"Palace Master Xu, why did three disciples of the Shangguan family die in the academy?"

Palace Master Xu shook his head.

She didn't want to say more, but thinking of Cao Xiang'er's relationship, she still mentioned:
"The Great Zhou Academy not only has children from aristocratic families, but also members of the Great Zhou royal family, as well as disciples from the sects within the territory. In Huainan, they may be the chosen ones of heaven, but when they arrive in the imperial capital and enter the academy, they may be at the bottom of the list. If they accidentally offend some dignitary..."

"Of course, this is secondary."

"The most important thing is that the teaching at the Great Zhou Academy is completely different from what we imagined. Even members of the royal family have died in it."

"but"

"The Great Zhou Academy is directly under the jurisdiction of His Majesty. No one dares to interfere in how the academy operates."

That's the case.

Then entering the Da Zhou Academy is obviously a blessing and a curse.

Fu Changsheng planned to ask other eighth-rank families for information. If it was really a dangerous place, he would rather not go in.
"Palace Master Xu, what about the other eight rights?"

"Third, after your Fu family pays the spirit stones, you can use the teleportation array to leave Jingzhou."

Palace Master Xu enumerated seven rights and interests in one breath, including the ability to enter secret realms below the middle yellow rank.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The secret realms and sect ruins are divided into levels according to the heaven, earth, mystery and yellow levels, and each level is divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower.

There are different levels of aristocratic families.

There are also restrictions on the number of people who can enter the secret realm.

From this point of view.

The imperial court clearly tilted its resources towards the upper-class families, which was also a disguised way of encouraging the lower-class families to climb up.

however.

Listened to the eight rights.

He had never seen Palace Master Xu mention the secret of the Purple Mansion.

Although Fu Changsheng had learned a thing or two from Shangguan Hongyu, he didn't know which spiritual objects could help in breaking through the Purple Mansion.

Palace Master Xu took a sip of Wuling tea.

A flick of the index finger.

Instantly, the magic circle in the main hall rose up, and her face suddenly became solemn:
"The tenth right should be what you, Patriarch Fu, are most concerned about, and that is the secret of breaking through the Purple Mansion."

As Palace Master Xu slowly spoke.

Fu Changsheng showed surprise on the surface, but in fact he was calm inside. As expected, the method of breaking through the Purple Mansion taught by the court was just as Hongyu said, which only opened up seventeen acupoints, and the golden elixir condensed in the end was only of the ninth grade at most.

but.

Palace Master Xu mentioned two spiritual objects that could break through the Purple Mansion.

The first is the [Xuanyin Grass] which assists in opening the Niwan Palace.

The upper dantian is located between the eyebrows. When the power of consciousness is opened, if one is not careful, it may cause the practitioner to lose his mind at best, or even destroy his soul at worst.

The sandalwood condensed after the Xuanyin grass is tempered can allow the cultivator to stay awake at any time when opening the Niwan Palace.

The second auxiliary spiritual object is the [Soul-Transmutation Pill].

The function of [Soul Transmutation Pill] is to nourish the soul after it is awakened, and to help the soul transform into a divine soul after it moves into the Purple Mansion.

Wait for Palace Master Xu to finish speaking.

Fu Changsheng then said:
"Palace Master Xu, can the eighth-rank family use their merit points to exchange for [Xuan Yin Grass] and [Soul Transmutation Pill]?"

Palace Master Xu shook his head.

But he nodded quickly:
"Of course you can, but whether it's the Xuanyin Grass or the Transmutation Soul Pill, the amount of merit points required is too large, and few noble families are willing to exchange them."

Finished.

Palace Master Xu made the number eight gesture.

Fu Changsheng's pupils shrank. One auxiliary spiritual object would cost 80,000 imperial merit points, and two would cost 160,000. This was undoubtedly an astronomical figure.

Palace Master Xu saw Fu Changsheng frowning and quickly added:
"Of course, in addition to merit points, there are other ways to exchange Xuanyin grass and soul-transforming pills from the court, such as completing a task assigned by the court. However, this depends on chance and is not something you can seek for."

Even the foundation-building pill.

The imperial court must have it firmly under control.

The recipe for the Soul-Transmuting Pill probably can't be purchased in the market.

Fu Changsheng muttered in his heart:
"No wonder the Huainan Purple Mansion Master has hardly ever been seen."

In their remote place.

Except the court.

There was no place they could rely on.

After talking about the rights and interests of the eighth-rank family, Palace Master Xu mentioned the conditions for promotion to the seventh-rank family.

although.

Their Fu family is far from meeting the standards.

However, Fu Changsheng still remembered it carefully in his mind, which was somewhat similar to being promoted to the eighth rank.

First, there is a fourth-level spiritual vein

Second, the Purple Mansion must have six combatants.

Third, we need twelve third-level technicians of the Hundred Arts of Cultivation.
Fourth, two eighth-rank noble families under his rule must be promoted
The last point is to accumulate 80,000 court merit points.

After listening to this, Fu Changsheng felt that the road ahead was long and arduous. However, for a cultivator, the lifespan could be hundreds of years. If one generation could not complete it, then only the second and third generations could make the effort.

For other families.

Perhaps it is an unattainable condition.

But he has the assistance of the Patriarch System, and he firmly believes that he should be able to lead the Fu family to the seventh rank within a hundred years.

Because of practicing "The Green Emperor's Longevity Secret", he has a lifespan of 290 years. Now he is only in his early 60s, so he still has more than 200 years to go. If he works hard step by step, he will be able to achieve his goal.

Palace Master Xu gave a few more instructions.

Time of parting.

Fu Changsheng personally handed over the prepared invitation:
"Palace Master Xu, on the fifteenth of next month our clan will hold a celebration for advancement to the eighth rank family. Please come and honor us."

"sure"

Palace Master Xu smiled brightly.

She came to take over the branch palace of Huainan Prefecture, and she thought she would not be able to achieve any results. However, she never expected that the Fu family would be promoted to the eighth rank unexpectedly.

The Fu family was doing so well, so naturally she had to go and help out.

After Fu Changsheng came out of the Zhenshi Division.

The sea of ​​consciousness suddenly trembled.

“The reward is here!”

Fu Changsheng took a few quick steps and returned to the secret room in the backyard of the shop. After closing the magic circle, he saw a bright yellow light surging from the panel.

Followed by.

A familiar voice sounded:
"Ding"

"You have successfully led the Fu family to become an eighth-grade family, and obtained 8,888 family contribution points."

Followed by.

The contribution value on the panel instantly changed to 11,388.

Fu Changsheng was delighted when he saw the value of over ten thousand. He never expected that the system would reward such a high contribution value.

Just thinking about how to use it.

The panel trembled again:
"Ding"

"You have successfully led the Fu family to become an eighth-grade family. As a reward, the system will activate the fourth function."

hum!
Then the panel shook violently.

A large amount of yellow light surged.

However, the fourth panel of the system was ablaze with spiritual light, and then, the words [Offspring Qualification Improvement] appeared on the panel:
"This is?"

Stunned.

A huge amount of information poured into the sea of ​​consciousness.

After a while.

Fu Changsheng was pleasantly surprised when looking at the newly opened [Improvement of Offspring Qualifications] panel. From the literal meaning, the new function was prepared for offspring. By consuming contribution points, the qualifications of a designated offspring could be improved.

but.

The qualifications here do not necessarily refer to the improvement of spiritual root qualifications, it may also be one of the hundreds of arts of cultivation, but it is random.

Finally the end.

Marked a sentence.

After his offspring's qualifications are improved, he can also receive corresponding rewards, but the amount of the rewards is not mentioned.

"I wonder if those without spiritual roots can improve themselves through this and start practicing?"

Fu Changsheng immediately thought of his youngest son Qiang Ge'er. According to the intelligence, Qiang Ge'er felt that he had not seen his parents many times since he was a child, and he had no aptitude for cultivation. He felt that he was abandoned by his parents, so he had been depressed and resentful for more than ten years.

just.

He was in retreat at that time.

So I never had time to deal with Qiang Ge’er’s matter.

but.

After he came out of customs.

I have already sent a message to my eldest brother to come from the clan territory in Anyang County to participate in the celebration, and bring the twins Fu Ge'er and Qiang Ge'er back to their fiefdom.

Fu Changsheng's eyes fell on the family panel. This time, the new system function was activated, which consumed more than 10,000 contribution points. Currently, there are only 1,000 left on the panel:
"We can give it a try when Brother Qiang comes over."
