Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family Chapter 144 - 93: Dad, Can I Not Cultivate Without a Spiritu

Chapter 144: Chapter 93: Dad, Can I Not Cultivate Without a Spiritual Root?_2

As Lu Changsheng had anticipated, nothing unexpected occurred.

The crystal cylinder remained unresponsive.

Not only him, but following suit, Lu Wuyou, Lu Wuyu, and Lu Xile all experienced the sa result.

“Sigh!”

Watching the four children complete the test, none of them possessing a Spiritual Root.

Even though he had been ntally prepared for this, aware of the likelihood, Lu Changsheng still let out a slight sigh.

“Dad, Mom.”

The four little ones ca over.

Due to not having detected a Spiritual Root, their little faces showed a touch of disappointnt.

They were all over five, almost six years old.

They also roughly understood what a Spiritual Root ant.

Although Lu Changsheng had inoculated them with reality, telling them that cultivation wasn’t all that great and that a mortal life could be good as well.

Nevertheless, these children were mostly raised by their mother.

Compared to Lu Changsheng, she held even greater hopes for them to soar to great heights.

“It’s fine, most people don’t have a Spiritual Root, if not, then so be it, co on, Dad will take you ho for so delicious food.”

Lu Changsheng rubbed the heads of his four children and spoke in a tender voice.

“Mhm, mhm.”

“Daddy, I want to eat beast milk cake!”

Lu Wuyou and Lu Xile, the two girls, seed to take it slightly better and smiled.

Lu Ping’an and Lu Wuyu didn’t take it quite as well.

The family of nine headed ho.

Just as they reached their doorstep,

Lu Ping’an suddenly looked up and said to Lu Changsheng, “Dad, does not having a Spiritual Root really an one can’t beco a cultivator? I want to beco a cultivator just like you!”

On hearing this, Lu Changsheng saw the hopeful look in his son’s eyes and paused, feeling a pang of heartache.

Yet he could only respond without words.

Without a Spiritual Root, one cannot cultivate.

This was the unassailable truth, an iron law of the Cultivation World!

Even with a system at his disposal, he did not dare claim he could break this iron law.

He opened his mouth as if wanting to speak, but found himself at a loss for words.

“Ping’an.”

Lu Lanshu imdiately looked at her son with a hint of sternness in her eyes, yet they radiated with compassion.

“Dad, don’t be sad, Ping’an will not cultivate anymore.”

On hearing this, Lu Ping’an looked at his father’s countenance, pursed his lips, and imdiately spoke.

“Daddy, don’t be sad.”

Lu Wuyou, on the side, also said in a childish voice.

Although the little ones were still young, they understood a great deal.

Lu Changsheng looked at his sensible children, feeling sowhat gratified, but also a bit ashad.

Gently, he stroked their heads but said nothing.

The next day, Lu Changsheng rode the Iron Feather Eagle back to the Nine Dragons Marketplace.

“Alas, I thought after all these years, my heart had turned to stone.”

Lu Changsheng, thinking of the previous day’s events, couldn’t help but let out a soft sigh.

Considering that this situation would recur annually made him sigh again.

“In this world, who can truly have it all?”

“This is but one of the harsh realities of the Cultivation World.”

Lu Changsheng, gazing at the clear blue sky and the forests and peaks below, let out a long breath as if to expel all the frustration from his chest.

“Hm?”

Just then, Lu Changsheng suddenly felt the fluctuation of several auras from the side.

He looked over.

He saw a slender young man in luxurious clothing riding a Purple Flying Serpent.

Behind him, three figures were chasing on a cloud of darkness while two others, using Flying Artifacts, continued to attack the young man.

It was clear that they were in pursuit, intent on killing him.

Lu Changsheng was a bit surprised at the scene.

The young man apparently had the cultivation level of the Energy Refinent Late Stage.

Yet, despite facing five cultivators’ assault, he was only slightly flustered.

While parrying their onslaught, he could also manage to direct a swarm of golden insects, like bees, towards the five pursuers.

“Go!”

Lu Changsheng didn’t look any further.

A wise man stays away from danger!

He imdiately directed the Iron Feather Eagle to dive below, not wanting to get involved in this situation.

However,

The young man riding the Flying Serpent also noticed Lu Changsheng, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

That glance made Lu Changsheng feel as if thorns were pricking his back.

This further convinced him that the young man was no ordinary individual.

“Fellow Daoist, to et is to share fate. I offer you a great opportunity – this is a bottle of Xuan Yin True Water, a Foundation Establishnt Spiritual Object. It aids in the Foundation Establishnt process!”

With that, the young man shouted out to Lu Changsheng.

He directly tossed a black porcelain bottle towards Lu Changsheng.

Lu Changsheng’s brow furrowed, and his expression darkened slightly.

He instantly knew that the other was attempting to divert trouble towards him.

But upon hearing the words ‘Foundation Establishnt Spiritual Object’ and seeing the approaching bottle, he couldn’t help but be tempted and caught it with his hand.

After all, he had reached the Seventh Level of Energy Refinent.

It was ti for him to consider Foundation Establishnt.

To achieve Foundation Establishnt, it’s best to use external aids, not just rely on oneself.

99 percent of cultivators utilize external objects to boost their chances during Foundation Establishnt!

Otherwise, attempting Foundation Establishnt without any aid was tantamount to courting death.

Among the objects that offer the most significant aid to Foundation Establishnt is the Foundation Establishnt Elixir!

During Foundation Establishnt, if one consus an elixir, it can stabilize qi and blood, massively increase Mana, stimulate Divine Sense, and harmonize spirit, energy, and soul.

Even if one fails in Foundation Establishnt, they won’t suffer from the backlash.

Besides the elixir, there are nurous Foundation Establishnt Spiritual Objects that can aid in the process.

This Xuan Yin True Water is especially helpful for overcoming one of the three barriers of Foundation Establishnt; the qi, blood barrier, the Mana barrier, and the Divine Sense barrier, particularly with the Mana barrier.

“To keep or not to keep, even if I don’t use this Xuan Yin True Water myself, wouldn’t it fetch at least two to three thousand Spirit Stones if I sold it?”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself while looking at the porcelain bottle.

After a brief consideration of the pros and cons, Lu Changsheng imdiately made a decision.

Having already gotten involved, even if he didn’t want the object, things probably wouldn’t just end there.

Moreover, he wanted it!
