“A Fifth Grade Spiritual Root, the same as Sister Miaoge’s, another step closer to the Heavenly Spiritual Root.”
“Moreover, it also helps me a bit more with Foundation Establishment.”
Lu Changsheng looked at the Spiritual Root level on the system’s interface and smiled.
Looking at the talent column that listed the Gengjin Body Constitution.
As time passed, he could feel that this Gengjin Body Constitution was also improving in effectiveness as his son, Lu Qingshan, grew up.
“Spiritual Bodies should fully form along with physical development, probably around the age of eleven or twelve,”
Lu Changsheng thought to himself.
A question suddenly occurred to him.
Now that he himself possessed the Gengjin Body Constitution.
If he were to have another child with the Gengjin Body Constitution, what would happen?
Could the Gengjin Body Constitution advance and become a high-grade Spiritual Body?
And what if the next Spiritual Body was conflicting with the Gengjin Body Constitution?
Could it cause a conflict of Spiritual Bodies and problems with his own body?
Lu Changsheng’s mind wandered with these thoughts.
After a while, Lu Changsheng figured this was something he’d only know after the birth of his second Spiritual Body child.
Looking at the system interface in front of him, Lu Changsheng saw his age.
He suddenly remembered he had inadvertently turned thirty.
“Thirty years old, Ninth Level Energy Refinement, this cultivation level, in a cultivation family like Qingzhu Mountain, would also be considered a genius.”
Lu Changsheng murmured to himself.
Yet, he wasn’t overly proud of this.
At this age, being at Ninth Level Energy Refinement might be considered genius in a family like Qingzhu Mountain,
but within the Immortal Sects, it would only be considered average.
However, he didn’t mind this aspect.
After all, his forte was having a solid foundation and being a late bloomer.
Having this speed was already good enough.
Not striving for the short-term, but aiming for lifelong achievements.
Besides, starting from scratch as the son of a poor farmer with a Ninth Grade Spiritual Root and having a system,
he was quite content with his achievements after relentless efforts over just twelve years.
“There’s a saying, ‘At thirty, one should stand firm.’ Now with seven wives, eleven concubines, twenty-four maids, and one hundred and seven children, I guess I can say I’ve established something, right?”
Lu Changsheng suddenly thought to himself.
…
Time flew by, and half a year passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period, Lu Changsheng’s Spiritual Root children increased by two.
Both of these children also possessed Spiritual Roots.
This brought the total number of his offspring with Spiritual Roots to twenty-five, earning him a chance to draw a prize.
Unfortunately, his luck with the draw was not very good.
He drew a Second Rank Spirit Slaughterer skill from the hundred cultivation skills.
The Spirit Slaughterer skill allowed Lu Changsheng to skillfully handle most demon beast carcasses without causing waste or damage during skinning, deboning, tendon extraction, and marrow retrieval.
But for Lu Changsheng at the moment, this skill was quite superfluous and destined to be unused.
After all, he had the skill of Talisman Making, which meant he didn’t need to rely on the Spirit Slaughterer skill for a living.
He never went out to hunt Demon Beasts for a living, because he did not need to rely on selling their materials.
However, among the two children that were born, the child of Xia Zhiyue possessed a Sixth Grade Spiritual Root.
This delighted Lu Changsheng immensely.
After all, among his more than one hundred children, there were twenty-five with Spiritual Roots.
But only Lu Qingshan had a Middle Grade Spiritual Root.
The child of Xia Zhiyue was his second child to have a Sixth Grade Spiritual Root.
However, when Xia Zhiyue was pregnant with this child, Lu Changsheng did not let her consume her own Origin Source to nourish the fetus excessively.
Otherwise, Lu Changsheng felt that Xia Zhiyue, who was in the Energy Refinement Middle Stage, could have given birth to a child with a Fifth Grade or even a Fourth Grade Spiritual Root.
But with the precedent set by the mother of Xia Zhiyue, Lu Changsheng would not do such a thing.
He could never bring himself to let a child’s mother consume her Origin Source to the point of depletion and death for the sake of childbirth.
He also planned not to let Xia Zhiyue have any more children in the short term and instead to let her rest and cultivate properly.
He would wait until she reached the Energy Refinement Late Stage to discuss this matter.
Even Lu Changsheng was thinking, if Xia Zhiyue broke through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, could she rely on her Spirit Nurturing Physique to conceive a child with a High Grade Spiritual Root.
“There’s about a month left until the day of the ten-year agreement.”
“I wonder how Feiyu is doing.”
On this day, after Lu Changsheng completed his routine cultivation and Talisman Making,
He remembered that there was about a month left until the ten-year agreement they had made.
He was also curious about the current situation of Han Lin, Xiao Xiyue, and Zhao Qingqing, who were cultivating in the Immortal Sects,
Curious about how they were doing after these ten years, whether the gap was gradually widening.
At the same time, he thought about Li Feiyu, who had been out adventuring for so long without any news, and wondered how he was faring.
In the blink of an eye, another half-month passed by.
Just as Lu Changsheng was preparing to go to the Ruyi County City for a gathering,
He received a letter.
It was a letter from Li Feiyu.
In the letter, Li Feiyu first talked about his own situation, stating that all was well with him.
Thanks to the Talismans and Spirit Stones that Lu Changsheng had given him, he had also broken through to the Fifth Level Energy Refinement.
He was currently exploring a precursor’s cave with others and was not sure he could rush back in time for the ten-year rendezvous.
Therefore, he had someone deliver the letter in advance.
If he did not return in time, he asked Lu Changsheng not to worry or miss him.
He also urged Lu Changsheng to inform Han Lin, Xiao Xiyue, and Zhao Qingqing about this.
“Alas, Feiyu has ultimately chosen this path,”
Lu Changsheng sighed lightly as he read the letter.
He had previously guessed that Li Feiyu, by venturing out, would eventually follow a path similar to Xia Long’s,
Obtaining resources by hunting Demon Beasts, exploring precursor’s caves, and secret realms.
Or rather, this was the only way for most Loose Cultivators to stand out and seize the chance for Foundation Establishment.
But such endeavors came with great risks.
After all, it was akin to risking one’s life at every turn,
And a single encounter with danger or mishap could result in death and a forgotten grave in the wilderness.
However, there was nothing Lu Changsheng could do to dissuade this.
Not everyone can live like him, safely marrying wives and concubines and having children, with the expectation of the Great Dao unfolding before them.
Nevertheless, Lu Changsheng felt that the reason Li Feiyu might not come to the rendezvous was not just because he was held up by matters but also because the gap among the six of them had grown too vast.
Li Feiyu was once promising in his youth.
But ten years ago, among the six, it was Li Feiyu who was in the worst situation.
Now, ten years later, Li Feiyu had still spent most of his time in vain. How could his proud nature endure that?
“Alas,”
Lu Changsheng sighed again, hoping that Li Feiyu was safe and well.
Flames appeared in his hand, and he burned the letter to ashes.
After informing his wives and concubines, he mounted the Iron Feather Eagle and set off towards Ruyi County City.
