Chapter 67

Immortal cultivation, farming, raising chickens. At Baiyun Feng, Su Fan spent seven years like this. Su Fan did not encounter the dark immortal cultivation world; instead, he lived these days of light and breezy farming, which were quite comfortable.

There was no outside disturbance.

Over seven years, the spirit fields of Baiyun Feng were expanded again to five mu: three mu of first-grade mid-tier and two mu of first-grade low-tier.

Every year, excluding what was handed over to the family, about twenty spirit stones could be left for Su Fan, and the Black Fire chickens had also expanded somewhat.

Nowadays, there are sixteen Black Fire chickens in the mountains, twelve adults, and the remaining four have not yet grown up.

This has already reached the limit. Any more, and the spirit energy of Baiyun Feng would not be enough.

The Black Fire chicken is a first-grade low-tier demon bird. To make it lay eggs, it must have spirit energy; otherwise, it will gradually degenerate into ordinary poultry.

Even if it lays eggs, the spirit energy contained within them is almost non-existent.

Su Fan had not failed to try.

Without spirit energy to absorb and no spirit rice to eat, just ordinary food, they could also lay eggs, but the Black Fire chickens hatched from these Black Fire eggs.

Had already degenerated again and could no longer become demon beasts.

In the end, they were handed over to those people in the valley and became poultry. Of course, even if they degenerated, the meat quality of this Black Fire chicken was still more delicious than ordinary poultry.

Just in terms of meat quality, it could also be sold for one spirit stone.

It's a pity that it was only the first generation; the second generation hatched after that was almost no different from ordinary poultry and could no longer be on the immortal cultivator's dining table.

Even so, relying on these, in these seven years, Su Fan earned no less than a hundred spirit stones.

Added to other miscellaneous things, in these seven years, Su Fan obtained at least over three hundred spirit stones.

If it were loose cultivators, many late-stage Qi Refining cultivators might not even have such a net worth.

Finding a goal and having the family's help, Su Fan could also earn money like this.

And because of Su Fan, the family also discovered such a way to make money. In the family, there are still quite a few spirit veins, and there are several first-grade mid-tier ones, but they are too far from the Yunwu Mountains, and there are not many Su Family cultivators, so they have never gone to occupy them.

Now it is different. With this Black Fire chicken business, one first-grade mid-tier spirit vein, opening up three mu of spirit fields, and raising a dozen or so Black Fire chickens, in a year, excluding expenses, there is also an income of fifty or sixty spirit stones.

It is already quite good. One spirit vein is fifty or sixty, so four or five would be over three hundred spirit stones.

Originally, the family's annual income after expenses was only five or six hundred spirit stones.

At that time, when Su Fan learned it from the Fifth Elder's mouth, he was also very surprised. A large Su Family, one of the five great Foundation Establishment families in Yu County, had a net annual income of only five hundred spirit stones; it was simply unimaginable.

In fact, the Su Family is indeed very poor; after all, it is an emerging family with not many industries.

Apart from the dozens of mu of spirit fields, the only things left to earn money are the three shops in Liuyun Market.

This is also because the Su Family has two Foundation Establishment cultivators, which were finally divided by several major families in Yu County.

As for mineral resources, there is only one red iron mine.

Throughout the year, the income is about fifteen hundred spirit stones, but about a hundred cultivators also need salaries, so before, after a year, there was only a net income of five hundred spirit stones.

However, ever since Su Fan accidentally brought out this way to make money by raising Black Fire chickens, the family has also expanded rapidly, especially in the Yunwu Mountains, where there are second-grade spirit veins, raising fifty or sixty Black Fire chickens.

The remaining spirit veins also each raise some, and in a year, the income has risen sharply. In these two years, they have been able to obtain a net profit of about one thousand spirit stones a year.

It can be said that Su Fan alone has doubled the Su Family's income, and the family has proposed to promote Su Fan to the position of elder.

After all, this is really a great contribution, and this is not a one-time thing, but a long-term one. In the past, the Su Family needed fifty or sixty years to earn one Foundation Establishment Pill.

Now this time has been shortened by half.

With such a great contribution, even if Su Fan is now at the seventh layer of Qi Refining, it is enough for him to become an elder of the family.

And this proposal has also been agreed to by the Great Elder Su Shi'an; it only lacks the Clan Leader's agreement to be promoted.

The Clan Leader is currently in seclusion, but it will be soon.

Su Family elders are generally only held by cultivators at the ninth layer of Qi Refining. Su Fan made a great contribution and was promoted; no one refuted it.

Being promoted to elder is naturally a good thing for Su Fan. Not to mention other things, just in terms of salary, in the past, Su Fan at most had about fifteen spirit stones a year.

Once promoted to elder, it is at least thirty, plus some spirit rice and other miscellaneous things, it is almost forty or fifty a year.

Secondly, if he is responsible for certain family affairs, he might also get some commission.

At the same time, he is also exempted from ordinary miscellaneous tasks.

With more power, more income, and fewer things to do.

Su Fan is naturally willing.

Staying at Baiyun Feng for seven years, Su Fan didn't feel bored at all. Cultivating immortals easily every year, he was naturally happy.

In seven years, he cultivated from the fifth layer of Qi Refining to the seventh layer of Qi Refining; the speed is not slow.

Of course, if one knew that in these seven years he had used up a full three or four hundred spirit stones, then it would not be surprising.

This was entirely piled up by spirit stones.

Apart from the direct descendants of those major sects, or the descendants of some cultivators with profound cultivation, who could be as extravagant as Su Fan?

In a few years, spending hundreds of spirit stones just for cultivation.

I am afraid that even those Foundation Establishment cultivators are not so extravagant; in the entire Su Family, only Su Fan is the one.

Of course, the outside world doesn't know; they just think Su Fan's constitution is good.

This can be considered a beautiful misunderstanding.

Su Fan had no choice but to do this kind of "pay-to-win" cultivation. He wanted to improve his cultivation faster, so he could only do this. Immortal cultivation emphasizes being one step ahead of others.

If you don't use spirit stones, are you waiting to be robbed by others in the future?

And even so, Su Fan felt that his cultivation was slow enough. He was twenty-five years old and only at the seventh layer of Qi Refining. His Third Brother, Su Qiyuan, returned to the family from the Yunyang Sect the year before last and also came to find him with his Eldest Brother to communicate.

In the Yunyang Sect, cultivating to the seventh layer of Qi Refining at twenty-something really doesn't count as anything; there are plenty of them.

After all, the Yunyang Sect is the hegemon of the Zheng State, and the loose cultivator disciples who can be accepted by the Yunyang Sect almost all have good spirit roots.

As for some family disciples, they have the support of their families behind them, so naturally, they are not bad either.

Just like his Third Brother, he has water and wood dual spirit roots. The year before last, at thirty-six, he was already at the ninth layer of Qi Refining. Although he had just broken through, that was also very good.

At least he is stronger than his Eldest Brother. Of course, this is also the family's support.

The last time he came back, he also hoped to get the family's support to help him obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill from the sect.

If a sect disciple wants to obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill, he must have ten thousand sect contribution points. Su Qiyuan had entered the sect since he was a child, and in these years, he had barely managed over one thousand. Even with the help of a Foundation Establishment master, he only had half.

The rest needs to rely on the family.

And the family naturally will not stand idly by. Being able to help family disciples break through to Foundation Establishment in the sect also has benefits for the family.

Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining have different statuses in the sect. Once Su Qiyuan is promoted to Foundation Establishment, the return to the family will be even greater.

These were things Su Fan later learned from his Eldest Brother's mouth.

At the same time, he also had a cognition of the Yunyang Sect's strength.

"It is time to go and explore again."
