“`

After a long time, Lu Changsheng slowly opened his eyes, inspected his Dantian where the Seven Luminaries Heart Lamp had condensed, exhaled lightly, and his face revealed a look of joy.

Through over half a month of secluded and arduous cultivation, he had finally succeeded in condensing the Seven Luminaries Heart Lamp.

Next, he could spend materials to forge this Seven Luminaries Heart Lamp into his life-bound Spiritual Artifact.

However, he did not start the forging right away.

Because such a task could not be completed in a short time, and it was not possible to interrupt the process.

He would need to be in seclusion for several months to accomplish it.

Now Lu Changsheng was beginning to understand why cultivators were beyond the constraints of time.

He didn’t even have to spend time comprehending and learning the method to condense this Seven Luminaries Heart Lamp.

Just visualizing the Seven Luminaries, condensing Sword Qi, and forging the Heart Lamp had already taken over half a month of his time.

If it were an ordinary person, they would have to be in seclusion for at least three or four months, or even half a year, to condense this lamp.

“Sigh, no wonder cultivators cannot have too many distractions and trivial matters.”

“With too many trivial matters, it’s really hard to focus on cultivation.”

Lu Changsheng sighed, stepping out of the practice room.

He immediately went to the residence of the Fourth Elder to inquire about teaching the Lu Family Disciples about the Talisman Path.

He planned to teach this class and then use seclusion to break through to the Seventh Level Energy Refinement as a pretext to forge the Seven Luminaries Heart Lamp, his life-bound Spiritual Artifact.

After all, the Seven Luminaries Heart Lamp was beneficial to cultivation, and the sooner it was forged, the better.

“I’ll let the Family Head know later, and you can start teaching tomorrow at Qingzhu Villa.”

Upon hearing Lu Changsheng’s intentions, the Fourth Elder said so.

…

The next day, the sun shone brightly.

The Fourth Elder then arrived at Lu Changsheng’s residence.

In addition to the Fourth Elder, there was also a man in his thirties with a handsome and refined appearance, wearing a blue shirt and greeting them courteously.

This man was the Lu Family’s Young Family Head, Lu Miaochang.

By this year’s family meeting, he would become the new Family Head of the Lu Family.

It wasn’t that Lu Yuanding had done anything wrong.

Instead, the term of the Family Head of the Lu Family lasted for twenty years.

This year happened to mark the end of Lu Yuanding’s twenty-year tenure, so he would step down to serve as an elder.

“Grandma, Young Family Head.”

Lu Changsheng greeted the Fourth Elder and Lu Miaochang with a bow.

“Changsheng.”

The two also nodded to Lu Changsheng in return.

This Young Family Head was Lu Yuanding’s nephew.

That’s why his temperament was somewhat similar to Lu Yuanding’s.

He was polite and dignified in his dealings, making him a very comfortable person to be around.

Both had come for the Talisman Path class.

Since it was Lu Changsheng’s first time teaching, the Fourth Elder had to come to oversee things.

As for the Young Family Head, he was there to set the scene and check on the situation,

so that none of the Family Disciples would misbehave and offend Lu Changsheng, the future elder and Talisman Master.

Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng also called his sons Lu Xianzhi and Lu Quanzhen to come along.

He had already noticed that both of his sons lacked talent in the Talisman Path.

But lack of talent aside, as cultivators, having more understanding of talismans was not a bad thing.

Everyone made their way to Qingzhu Villa.

“Uncle Fu.”

Lu Changsheng greeted the steward of Qingzhu Villa as he saw Uncle Fu.

The old man had also aged significantly and was currently in a semi-retired state.

“Fourth Elder, Young Family Head, Changsheng.”

Uncle Fu greeted the three of them.

He felt somewhat sentimental inside; the once son-in-law of the Lu Family had now become a core member.

In the realm of talismans, he had surpassed Sister Miaoge in the Lu Family to replace the Fourth Elder as the number one person in the Lu Family.

He led the three to a large hall in Qingzhu Villa.

Inside, there were more than twenty Lu Family Disciples.

The youngest were eleven or twelve years old, and the oldest were only fifteen or sixteen.

“We pay our respects to the Fourth Elder, Uncle Miaochang, Elder Miaochang, Teacher Lu.”

After receiving the message the day before, these Lu Family Disciples knew that Lu Changsheng would be teaching Talisman-Making.

Their elders at home had also instructed them to be polite and respectful to Lu Changsheng.

After all, during the battle where the Lu Family vanquished the Chen Family, the older generation of the Lu Family knew just how substantial this son-in-law was.

He was not only extraordinarily gifted in the Talisman Path, earning the favor of the Lu Family Ancestor who personally bestowed the marriage,

but he also had a deep relationship with a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator.

“Xianzhi, Quanzhen, find a place to sit down.”

Lu Changsheng said to his two sons, then started the class.

“`

With his Second Rank Talisman-Making Skill, his foundation in this basic knowledge was exceptionally solid.

The theoretical aspects were also articulated as if he had a full set of instructions.

He was nothing like the Fourth Elder, who relied on slow self-study, and could not compare to his finely honed approach.

Therefore, in terms of enlightening and lecturing the newcomers on the Talisman Path, he could not be better suited.

Lu Changsheng did not hold back his skills, teaching in a straightforward and comprehensible manner, fluid and natural.

Moreover, in the classroom, he broke down the steps of Basic Talismans for everyone, teaching them bit by bit, to the point that these children and youths were utterly enraptured.

“This…”

Even the Fourth Elder, upon hearing Lu Changsheng’s lecture and the dissection of the Talisman steps, couldn’t help but be surprised.

She felt that Lu Changsheng’s instruction was simply flawless, with not a single fault to find.

She even experienced the sensation of reviewing old knowledge and coming to new realizations.

She had originally assumed that Lu Changsheng, relying on his own exploration, would have some deficiencies in his foundational knowledge.

Therefore, she came to listen to the class, also thinking of giving Lu Changsheng some guidance at that time to reinforce his basics.

Unexpectedly, under these circumstances, she reviewed the basics herself.

“Alright, today’s class will end here,”

“If you are interested, you can go home and practice some on your own, and I will check on your progress in the next lesson,” said Lu Changsheng after lecturing for almost an hour.

Simply listening is of no use in Talisman Making.

After all, even if your mind understands, if your hands are unable to execute, it’s no good.

To go far on the Talisman Path, one must unite body and mind, with meticulous and minute control over one’s own Spiritual Power and the strength applied.

Then, through continuous hard practice, one can achieve success on the Talisman Path.

“Changsheng, your performance today was truly surprising to grandma,”

said the Fourth Elder, her face full of smiles, rather moved as she spoke to Lu Changsheng.

“Grandma is overpraising me, it’s all thanks to your regular guidance,”

humbly replied Lu Changsheng.

He then spoke of his preparations to break through the Seventh Level Energy Refinement.

The next lecture might be in a few months.

“Changsheng, if you plan to give a lecture, just tell Uncle Fu a few days in advance,”

Lu Miaochang spoke up.

Asking Lu Changsheng to give lectures obviously couldn’t involve fixed times; it had to be at Lu Changsheng’s convenience.

“By the way, Changsheng, do you need to exchange for a High Rank Breakthrough Elixir for your advancement to the Energy Refinement Late Stage?”

“I remember the Lu Family currently has two High Rank Breakthrough Elixirs,” Lu Miaochang continued.

“That’s exactly what I intend, I’m planning to exchange for a Breakthrough Elixir to assist,” said Lu Changsheng with a smile.

It wasn’t about taking advantage of using Contribution Value for such a small benefit.

It was simply that for someone with a Ninth Grade Spiritual Root, it would seem abnormal not to use a Breakthrough Elixir as an aid.

“I just so happen to be going there as well, so let’s go together,” Lu Miaochang nodded promptly.

“Okay,”

Lu Changsheng nodded, instructing his two sons to head back on their own.

He went with Lu Miaochang to exchange for the High Rank Breakthrough Elixir.

This High Rank Breakthrough Elixir, when purchased in the Marketplace, costs one thousand two hundred Spirit Stones.

But when exchanged using Contribution Value in the Lu Family, it only costs eight hundred fifty points.

That’s equivalent to eight hundred fifty Spirit Stones.

This is one of the benefits provided by the family,

encouraging the Lu Family Disciples to contribute more.

Lu Changsheng, providing Talismans for the Lu Family every month, had long since accumulated enough Contribution to exchange for the High Rank Breakthrough Elixir.

After exchanging for the High Rank Breakthrough Elixir, Lu Changsheng bid farewell to Lu Miaochang.

He could see that this young Family Head had always been extending goodwill towards him.

But the man was also a close uncle through marriage relations, so naturally, Lu Changsheng was friendly in return. For every inch of respect given, he would return a foot.

“I wonder when Xi Yue will come,”

“This refining of the Seven Luminaries Heart Lamp will likely take three to four months,” mused Lu Changsheng on his way back.

It had been three months since they parted ways.

She went back to Qingyun Sect to report and to cultivate the techniques for Foundation Establishment, so she was expected to visit in the coming months.

“Yun’er, keep this Transmission Talisman for me, and if anyone tries to contact me, just tell them I’m in closed cultivation,”

“Tell her to go directly to Red Leaf Valley Market to find Sister Miaoge if she has any issue,” Lu Changsheng instructed upon reaching home.

He mentioned his plans for going into seclusion and left his and Xiao Xiyue’s Transmission Talisman with his wife, Lu Miaoyun.

He did this to avoid Xi Yue arriving while he was not present.
