“If I didn’t borrow the power of the Talisman and the Talismanic Treasure, but relied on my own strength, wanting to kill a Qi Refining late-stage cultivator would not be so simple.”
Lu Changsheng looked at the old man he had just killed, his heart extrely calm.
“Pfft!”
A fireball appeared in the palm of his hand, shooting out and burning the old man’s charred body to ashes.
Next, Lu Changsheng reached out and stored the magical weapons and storage bag into his own storage bag.
When Lu Changsheng returned to his original spot, he saw that Xiaolong was no longer in the air, but had fallen to the ground, resting.
He had been severely injured earlier and was relying on secret techniques to suppress his injuries.
But the attack from the Yin Thunder Bead earlier had caused his original severe injuries to worsen, and his entire body was now emitting a deathly aura, resembling a lamp running out of oil.
“Cough, cough, thank you, Daoist Lu, for saving my life. Please accept my respects.”
Xiaolong sat on the ground, coughing up black blood, and slightly bowed to Lu Changsheng.
Then, with a trembling hand, he took out two storage bags from his clothes and said, “Daoist Lu , I am about to die, and my greatest concern is my two children in the mortal world. If possible, I hope you can take care of them for .”
“This is all my family’s assets, including a Foundation Establishnt spiritual treasure and an opportunity that I obtained in the Purple Mist Secret Realm. I’ll give it to you as a reward.”
Xiaolong handed the storage bags to Lu Changsheng. His voice was weak.
He was very clear about his current situation and was already on the brink of death.
Unless he had a precious spirit dicine or a doctor to save his life, he had no other choice but to die.
But now, neither of these conditions was possible, and he could only take one path.
He was even worried that Lu Changsheng might be tempted by his wealth.
So, he decided to proactively offer everything he had to Lu Changsheng, and beg him to take care of his children.
Although they didn’t have much interaction, Lu Changsheng had helped him before, and he felt that Lu Changsheng was a decent person.
“Take care of the children?”
Lu Changsheng’s eyebrows slightly furrowed when he heard this.
He had heard Xiaolong ntion before that he had a family with two children in the mortal world.
He had been working hard, hunting demonic beasts, and exploring ancient ruins, not only to obtain the Foundation Establishnt opportunity but also to pave the way for his children.
Who would have thought that, in his final monts, Xiaolong would still be worried about his children?
“Alas, Daoist Xia, what’s the point of this?”
Lu Changsheng let out a soft sigh.
In his opinion, if Xiaolong hadn’t been so desperate, with his cultivation level and living conditions, he wouldn’t have been in such a difficult situation.
“Daoist Lu , if you’re unwilling, then forget it. These things, consider them a reward for saving my life.”
Xiaolong’s pale face was filled with bitterness.
“Alas, the hearts of parents are all the sa.”
Looking at Xiaolong, who had previously been so strong and steady, but now was pale and weak, with pleading eyes, Lu Changsheng sighed again.
“A dying man’s entrustnt, I, Lu, cannot refuse.”
“But Daoist Xia also knows sothing about my situation. I really don’t have ti to take care of others, so I can only send your ashes to your ho.”
“If Daoist Xia has any last words, I can pass them back to you.”
Lu Changsheng said aloud.
He himself has so many children to raise and take care of.
Where is the ti to take care of other people’s children.
Moreover, he rembered Xiaolong saying that his children were already grown up.
“Thank you, Daoist Lu !”
Xiaolong’s face fell when he heard this.
But he also knew that this was human nature.
Lu Changsheng was already willing to do this, which was already a lot.
Xiaolong imdiately began to entrust his final affairs.
He told Lu Changsheng about his family situation in the mortal world and the things he needed to take care of.
He also ntioned that in the Jiulong Market, he had rented a courtyard with a first-class formation, the “Heavenly Curtain Five Elents Array,” which had the effect of isolating and suppressing aura.
Under a small tree in the courtyard, there was a storage bag buried, containing 300 spirit stones, which he hoped Lu Changsheng could give to his son.
After finishing his entrustnt, Xiaolong seed to have released a breath, his eyes closed, and his body fell weakly to the ground.
“Daoist Xia, rest assured, I will give the spirit stones to your son.”
Lu Changsheng looked at Xiaolong’s corpse, letting out a soft sigh.
A noble person loves wealth, but takes it in a righteous way.
He didn’t think of himself as a noble person, but in this situation, he would still send the 300 spirit stones back.
Just then, Xiaolong’s eyes slightly opened again.
With a weak, gasping voice, he said, “My daughter is currently of age. If Daoist Lu is willing, you can take her as a concubine.”
After finishing his words, the person completely lost his breath.
“Ah, this Daoist Xia is truly one-hearted, paving the way for his son.”
“Even at the mont of death, he still thought of his son more, and wanted to marry his daughter to and have take care of her.”
Lu Changsheng looked at Xiaolong, shaking his head in admiration.
Although Xiaolong had a son and a daughter,
Most of his last words were about his son.
He ntioned that his son would be twelve years old next year and had hopes of entering the Immortal Sect.
He hoped that Lu Changsheng would guide him on how to do so.
Even in his final words, Lu Changsheng saw that it was all for the sake of his son.
However, Lu Changsheng didn’t know what to say about this.
Looking at Xiaolong’s corpse, Lu Changsheng confird that he was dead, then used a fireball technique to burn the body to ashes.
He then took out a jade box, carefully placing the ashes inside.
“Just now, Xiaolong ntioned the Purple Mist Secret Realm; he ca from the Purple Mist Secret Realm and was ambushed.”
“Now that the Purple Mist Secret Realm has ended, I don’t know if anyone from the Lu Family survived and gained anything from it.”
Lu Changsheng thought to himself.
Xiaolong had just told him to tell his son not to seek revenge.
Lu Changsheng also asked about the situation in the Purple Mist Secret Realm.
He learned that the mortality rate in the Purple Mist Secret Realm was as high as 60-70%.
Xiaolong was originally part of a six-person team, but only two people made it out.
One of them was the young talisman shop owner.
However, on their way back, the talisman shop owner suddenly attacked Xiaolong, which led to the scene Lu Changsheng witnessed.
This made Lu Changsheng sigh and worry about the Lu Family’s situation.
Lu Changsheng didn’t think much about it and found the young man’s corpse, taking the magical weapons storage bag from his body.
He then used the beast-controlling token to summon the steel-feathered eagle, which was frightened and trembling, and put it back in the spirit pet bag.
He took out a Hundred-Mile Invisibility Talisman and left, finding a mountain cave to sort out his gains.
“Ah? The Heaven and Earth Eternal Life Technique?”
“Steal the heavens’ vitality and return it to oneself!”
Lu Changsheng saw a green jade slip in Xiaolong’s storage bag, and after reading its contents, he was shocked.
The jade slip recorded a cultivation thod called the “The Heaven and Earth Eternal Life Technique”.
It allowed people to ignore their spiritual roots and cultivate without any bottlenecks, eventually reaching the Nascent Soul Stage.
Moreover, at the Foundation Establishnt stage, one would have a lifespan of 300 years, at the Core Formation Stage, 800 years, and at the Nascent Soul Stage, 2,000 years.
Of course, this thod was extrely powerful, but it also had extrely harsh conditions and defects.
Firstly, one needed to find a “Heavenly Spirit Plant” to cultivate this thod.
Then, one had to refine the “Heavenly Spirit Plant” into their own “Spirit Root”.
After that, one had to plant and nurture the “Heavenly Spirit Plant”.
By relying on the “Heavenly Spirit Plant”, one could absorb the heavens’ vitality and cultivate without any bottlenecks, reaching the Nascent Soul Stage.
Moreover, one’s lifespan would far surpass that of others at the sa level.
“To be considered a Heavenly Spirit Plant, it must be at least a third-grade spirit plant.”
“To nurture such a spirit plant, one needs to plant it in a second-grade Spirit Vain at the very least.”
“If one wants to cultivate a third-grade spirit plant and absorb the heavens’ vitality, one needs to plant it in a third-grade Spirit Vain!”
“Moreover, once the spirit plant is planted, the cultivator cannot leave it too far away, which is equivalent to being bound to one place.”
“Even if one satisfies these harsh conditions and cultivates the The Heaven and Earth Eternal Life Technique, it’s still extrely flawed.”
“Because this thod is solely for cultivating eternal life, abandoning all attacking and defensive abilities.”
“All the spiritual powers are used to nourish the body and soul, making oneself completely unable to fight, even if one breaks through to the Core Formation Stage or the Nascent Soul Stage.”
Lu Changsheng looked at the jade slip, shaking his head.
This thod was indeed against the heavens.
It allowed people to ignore their spiritual roots and cultivate without any bottlenecks, reaching the Nascent Soul Stage.
Moreover, one’s lifespan would be twice that of others at the sa level.
But the cultivation conditions were extrely harsh, and the defects were extrely obvious.
Once one cultivated this thod, they would have no defensive abilities.
“Cultivating in the Dao is already difficult, and without defensive abilities, what’s the use of a long lifespan?”
“Sooner or later, one would fall to a tragic end.”
“This Heaven and Earth Eternal Life Technique is only suitable for powerful families in the cultivation world, where they have soone to protect them and don’t need to fight with others, living in a peaceful and serene land.”
“Otherwise, ordinary cultivators who cultivate this thod would find the harsh conditions unbearable, let alone successfully cultivating it.”
Lu Changsheng sighed.
But the next mont, Lu Changsheng’s eyebrows twitched, as if he had thought of sothing.
“This Heaven and Earth Eternal Life Technique may not be suitable for .”
“But for people like Zhenzhen, Miaoyun, and even the children like Little Seven, it might be suitable for them to cultivate this thod in the future.”
“As long as I beco a Core Formation true person, a Nascent Soul true lord, I’ll be able to provide them with this cultivation condition, giving them a pure land to cultivate this ‘The Heaven and Earth Eternal Life Technique’.”
Lu Changsheng suddenly thought to himself.
With the system by his side, Lu Changsheng was confident in his future cultivation, unimpeded.
But his wives and children were a different story.
Qu Zhenzhen, with an eight-grade Spirit Root, had only broken through to the Qi Refining second stage after all these years.
Lu Miaoyun, although having a seven-grade Spirit Root, had already reached the Qi Refining fourth stage when she married him.
However, due to giving birth and taking care of the children, her cultivation progress was very slow, and she was still at the peak of the Qi Refining fourth stage.
She had almost given up on cultivation.
As for Lu Xianzhi and the other children, they had Spirit Roots, but they were all low-grade Spirit Roots.
Lu Changsheng didn’t think he had the ability to cultivate each of them individually, allowing them to reach Foundation Establishnt and Core Formation in the future.
Now, seeing this ‘The Heaven and Earth Eternal Life Technique’, he felt that once he had the conditions, he could completely let his wives and children cultivate this thod.
This would make their future cultivation path much simpler.
And he wouldn’t need his wives and children to go out and fight, or engage in battles.
“This matter is still too far off for right now.”
“At least I need to wait until I beco a Core Formation true person and have my own Spirit Vain land.”
Lu Changsheng took a deep breath and let it out, not thinking about it anymore.
It was still too early to think about this.
However, this ‘The Heaven and Earth Eternal Life Technique’ had added a sense of urgency to his cultivation.
Next, Lu Changsheng continued to clear out the three people’s storage bags.
After a long ti…
The three people’s storage bags were cleared out.
There were 1,256 spirit stones.
One Foundation Establishnt spiritual object.
One top-grade magical weapon.
Four high-grade magical weapons.
Seven dium-grade magical weapons.
One first-grade dium-grade puppet, and three first-grade low-grade puppets.
Over a hundred Talismans.
Many Pills.
And many spiritual plants and dicines!
“Xiaolong and the old boss of that small Talisman shop should have gone to explore the secret realm, exchanging all the spirit stones for Pills, Talismans, or treasures like the Yin Thunder Bead.”
“As a result, there weren’t many spirit stones on their bodies.”
“However, these magical weapons, Talismans, puppets, and spiritual materials should be worth several thousand spirit stones.”
After clearing out the three people’s things, Lu Changsheng held a brocade box in his hand.
Inside the box was a fist-sized, bright red fruit with blood-colored patterns flowing on its surface, looking very mysterious.
“And I have this Blood Yang Fruit, which can break through the third barrier of Foundation Establishnt, the ‘Qi Blood Barrier’.”
“I’ve finally gathered all the Foundation Establishnt spiritual objects.”
“Unfortunately, I don’t have the main material for the Foundation Establishnt Pill, the Heavenly Spirit Fruit; otherwise, I would have already made the Foundation Establishnt Pill.”
Lu Changsheng thought to himself.
He had previously learned about the Foundation Establishnt Pill.
He thought that in the future, when he drew a second-grade alchemy, he might be able to refine the Foundation Establishnt Pill.
But after learning more, he realized he had thought too much.
Refining the Foundation Establishnt Pill was extrely difficult.
The most difficult part was the Pill material, which included the Heavenly Spirit Fruit.
This Heavenly Spirit Fruit was only produced in the Purple Mist Secret Realm and was very rare elsewhere.
This was also why the Purple Mist Secret Realm was controlled by several major immortal sects, and the Foundation Establishnt Pill was rarely seen.
Next, Lu Changsheng slightly adjusted himself, waiting for the steel-feathered eagle to recover before riding it back to Jiulong Market.
He was preparing to clear out Xiaolong’s things.
This ti, he didn’t use his original face, instead disguising himself as an ordinary, plain-looking young man.
According to Xiaolong’s instructions, Lu Changsheng entered Xiaolong’s house, taking away the ‘Heavenly Curtain Five Elents Array’ in the courtyard.
This top-grade formation was worth over a thousand spirit stones.
Then, according to Xiaolong’s words, he dug up a storage bag from under a tree in the courtyard.
Inside were 300 spirit stones.
Lu Changsheng also took a look around the house.
He simply gathered up a few of Xiaolong’s items and brought them back as a nto for his wives and children.
After finishing, Lu Changsheng left Jiulong Market.
He didn’t directly head to Xiaolong’s secular family.
Instead, he first went ho.
His 60th child was about to be born in half a month.
Two days later.
Lu Changsheng returned to Qingzhu Mountain smoothly.
Through his conversation with Lu Miaoyun, Lu Changsheng learned that Lu Yuanshan, who was sent to the Purple Mist Secret Realm, had returned.
However, he had lost an arm upon his return.
Among the two Lu Family disciples who went with him, only Lu Miaokun returned.
Lu Miaofa, however, did not return and fell in the Purple Mist Secret Realm.
As for the harvest in the Purple Mist Secret Realm, Lu Miaoyun was also unaware.
“If Lu Yuanshan didn’t obtain the Heavenly Spirit Fruit in the Purple Mist Secret Realm, this loss would be significant for the Lu Family.”
Lu Changsheng thought to himself after hearing the news.
Soone like Lu Yuanshan, a cultivator who lost an arm, would have a significant decrease in combat power.
Moreover, his crippled body would affect his chances of breaking through to the Foundation Establishnt stage, making it almost impossible for him to achieve it in the future.
And soone like Lu Miaofa, an elite disciple of the Lu Family, was also a significant loss for the family.
She was a future core fighting force and a Foundation Establishnt seedling.
Losing one would be a huge loss for the Lu Family.
Lu Changsheng didn’t think much about these matters.
These were not his concerns, and he didn’t need to worry about them.
He was only observing whether the Lu Family would produce new Foundation Establishnt great masters within the next two years.
If not, it would an that Lu Yuanshan probably didn’t obtain the Heavenly Spirit Fruit in the Purple Mist Secret Realm.
Or, the Lu Family’s plan to cultivate Foundation Establishnt cultivators had failed.
The possibility of producing Foundation Establishnt great masters in the next few years was also low.
anwhile, in the northern border of Jiang Country, at the Dream Lake.
A young girl with a clear face and purple dress was riding a flying magical weapon, which suddenly stopped.
In front of her was a majestic and magnificent giant city, with a spiritual aura surrounding it.
The city walls stretched as far as the eye could see, with layer upon layer of city walls and towering mountain-like buildings inside.
Many cultivators were flying around the city gate, so riding flying swords, others riding flying boats, and so riding spiritual beasts, creating a dazzling scene.
Even strong auras were flying in the air, indicating the presence of Foundation Establishnt great masters, causing other cultivators to give way.
“Now that I have the Foundation Establishnt Pill material, the Heavenly Spirit Fruit.”
“The two missing auxiliary materials can be purchased in this Dream Immortal City.”
“As long as I collect all the materials, this Dream Immortal City will have a second-grade alchemist who can refine the Foundation Establishnt Pill for .”
“I can ask him to refine the Foundation Establishnt Pill for then!”
ng Xiaochan descended from her flying magical weapon and walked towards the city gate.
On the city gate, which was several dozen feet tall, the four large characters “Dream Immortal City” were inscribed.
It gave people an ancient, vast, and majestic feeling.
“I heard that Chen Ping, the Pill master, can refine at least one Foundation Establishnt Pill with each furnace.”
“Normally, he can refine two Foundation Establishnt Pills, and if he’s lucky, even three.”
ng Xiaochan thought that her Foundation Establishnt Pill was about to take shape.
At this mont, a handso young man’s face appeared in her mind.
“He will also need a Foundation Establishnt Pill when he breaks through to the Foundation Establishnt stage.”
“I’ll give him a Foundation Establishnt Pill then, and he’ll definitely be very happy.”
“But what reason should I give for giving him the Foundation Establishnt Pill?”
“According to what I know, he’s quite flirtatious and has many wives, so if I give him the Foundation Establishnt Pill, he might ask to be his wife, what do I do then?”
ng Xiaochan’s heart suddenly skipped a beat, and her face turned red.
“Should I agree or not?”
“If I agree directly, won’t it be too quick and make seem too eager?”
ng Xiaochan’s heart was racing like a deer, and she couldn’t help but cover her red face with her hands.
She imagined the scene that would unfold.
Then, ng Xiaochan suddenly let out a loud cry.
Fear appeared in her eyes.
“No, I must break through to the Foundation Establishnt stage as soon as possible, or the Love-locking Gu’s influence will only get stronger!”
ng Xiaochan gritted her teeth, her eyes determined.
Half a month later.
Lu Changsheng’s 60th child was born.
“No reward?”
Lu Changsheng saw the child being born but didn’t receive any reward, which made him feel a bit disappointed.
Previously, every ten children would earn a reward.
But now, there was none, leaving him feeling sowhat disappointed.
“Oh well, if there is no reward, then no reward.”
“After all, I had already guessed that it wouldn’t always be possible to rely on having children to get rewards.”
Lu Changsheng let out a sigh and quickly cald down.
He had already ntally prepared himself for this.
He knew that relying on having children to get rewards would eventually reach a limit.
Once he reached that limit, he would have to focus on cultivating his children and improving himself in other ways.
“Since relying on having children to get rewards won’t work, it’s almost ti to focus on cultivating them and improving myself.”
Lu Changsheng was deep in thought.
In these three years, he had directly given birth to almost forty children.
More than the previous five years.
In addition to relying on the strategy of having a large number of children to try his luck, Lu Changsheng didn’t deny that he had thoughts of relying on the system rewards to brush up his children.
Nowadays, the difficulty of having children to get rewards has increased, and the cost-effectiveness has decreased.
Lu Changsheng felt that this speed could be slowed down a bit more.
He would focus on giving birth mainly to his wives with Spirit Roots.
Over the years, the probability of his wives with Spirit Roots giving birth to children with Spirit Roots had been very satisfactory to Lu Changsheng.
By doing so, he could also have more ti and energy to focus on his cultivation.
After all, frequently giving birth, to a certain extent, also affected his cultivation speed.
