Chapter Index

    On a mountain peak shrouded in mist and clouds.

    A frightening blood jade spider crouched, its body emitting an eerie red glow.

    In its pupils was reflected a clear, mirror-like Spirit Pond, and beside it, a white-robed girl sitting with her arms around her knees.

    The girl’s features were delicate, her aura ethereal. Her jet-black hair cascaded down her back as she gazed at her reflection in the Spirit Pond, lost in thought.

    After a long while, the girl snapped back to reality and sighed softly.

    Her fair hand gently disturbed the pond’s surface, causing ripples to spread.

    Then, she removed her embroidered shoes and silk socks, revealing a pair of small, delicate feet as white as uncarved jade.

    Her toes tentatively dipped into the pond water. The moment they touched the surface, they curled up playfully, creating tiny waves.

    The pond water shimmered, its light flowing over the girl’s pale jade feet, enveloping them up to her slender ankles, bringing a look of contentment to her face.

    Next, as if playing, the girl swung her small feet in the pond, splashing droplets of water that sparkled like round, bright pearls.

    In the sunlight, her snow-white, exquisite jade feet in the shimmering pond water seemed to glow like precious gems, crystal clear.

    “Xiaochan.”

    At that moment, not far away, a stunningly beautiful woman with a bewitching face opened her eyes from her meditative posture, stood up, and called out softly to the girl.

    She wore an elegant purple gown, her figure graceful and alluring, with curves that could be described as exquisite to the extreme.

    Her chest was proud and prominent, barely contained by her clothes. Her waist was slender and supple, so slim it could be encircled by two hands.

    Below her slim waist, her curves changed abruptly, revealing her round, beautiful hips, enticingly voluptuous.

    Though the woman’s entire body exuded charm and allure, brimming with sensuality,

    there was a commanding, awe-inspiring presence in her eyes and brows.

    She gave off an air of cold beauty and dominance, noble and dignified, making others feel ashamed and intimidated in her presence.

    “Master?”

    Hearing her master’s voice, Meng Xiaochan turned her head to look at Nangong Mili.

    Seeing her master’s proud figure with its prominent curves, she couldn’t help but feel a twinge of envy.

    “Xiaochan, it’s time to go.”

    Nangong Mili exhaled softly, looking towards the horizon as she spoke.

    Her long phoenix eyes held a mesmerizing power that could captivate anyone.

    “Master, has your body recovered?”

    Hearing this, Meng Xiaochan gently bit her lip and asked with concern.

    “I’ve recovered about seventy to eighty percent. Fully recovering here would take too much time.”

    Nangong Mili took a deep breath, her proud chest rising and falling as she spoke softly.

    As she spoke, her hand unconsciously stroked her flat abdomen.

    She knew that if she continued to recuperate, the child in her womb would eventually affect her strength.

    If she encountered danger then, it would be very troublesome.

    Moreover, she could clearly sense that the Locking Emotion Gu was constantly influencing her subtly.

    Therefore, she had to return to the Five Poison Sect in Jin Kingdom as soon as possible.

    Only after returning to the Five Poison Sect could she give birth to this child with peace of mind.

    Only then would she have the conditions to give this child an advantage from the womb.

    At the same time, the Five Poison Sect’s unique Gu insect – the Phoenix Gu – had the effect of ‘rebirth through nirvana, washing away impurities’.

    It could remove the effects of the Locking Emotion Gu.

    Thinking about how, under the influence of the Locking Emotion Gu, she had developed feelings of love towards Lu Changsheng despite his various humiliations and trampling,

    Nangong Mili couldn’t help but feel a surge of shame, anger, and murderous intent, wanting to cut Lu Changsheng into pieces and scatter his remains.

    Even if she, Nangong Mili, were to fall in love with someone, it would never be in this manner!

    “This dog of a man must possess some sort of supreme Dao body.”

    “Otherwise, with mere Foundation Establishment cultivation, he absolutely wouldn’t have such abilities.”

    Nangong Mili’s beautiful eyes narrowed, cold and clear, as she thought of Lu Changsheng using Yin-Yang Dual Qi to heal her.

    Her True Core had developed a hint of Golden Core Dao Rhythm under Lu Changsheng’s nurturing.

    She couldn’t help but plan that once she fully recovered and resolved the Locking Emotion Gu issue, she would capture this dog of a man, Lu Changsheng, and bring him back to the Five Poison Sect.

    She would subject him to all sorts of humiliations, forcing him to nurture her Golden Core!

    This way, she could not only exact revenge but also elevate her True Core to an Immortal Golden Core!

    But thinking about the process of nurturing the Golden Core, she recalled that time she didn’t want to remember. Her long phoenix eyes flashed with embarrassment, her heart inexplicably fluttering, emotions churning.

    “Huff!”

    Nangong Mili suppressed and calmed the emotions in her heart.

    Looking at the Mysterious Pearl inside her body, her alluring lips slightly pursed, a wave of light surged around her body.

    She transformed into a charming, mature beauty.

    But all the bewitching, alluring, and seductive aura that had filled her body disappeared completely.

    “Let’s go.”

    She glanced at her disciple Meng Xiaochan and said softly.

    Although she knew that her affliction with the Locking Emotion Gu was related to Meng Xiaochan,

    she understood in her heart that Meng Xiaochan’s Locking Emotion Gu was even more profound than her own.

    Doing such a thing was understandable.

    Moreover, under the effect of the Locking Emotion Gu, Meng Xiaochan was still able to tell her, her master, about the Locking Emotion Gu, which showed that her feelings for her master were not weaker than the effects of the Locking Emotion Gu.

    In this situation, she naturally wouldn’t blame Meng Xiaochan too much.

    “Yes, Master.”

    Seeing her master’s transformation, Meng Xiaochan immediately retracted the formation.

    Then she touched the purple bracelet on her wrist, changing her appearance and aura.

    After that, the two rode on a cloud, turning into a streak of light and disappearing from the mountaintop.

    Time flew, and in the blink of an eye, half a year passed.

    During this time, after impregnating his two concubines and one maid, Lu Changsheng began to seclude himself for cultivation, crafting the Nine-Nine Mysterious True Talisman.

    This talisman instrument was very complex, even more so than the ‘Seven Luminaries Heart Lamp’, his life-bound Magical Treasure.

    The true finished product consisted of 129,600 Nine-Nine Mysterious True sticks.

    It could change shape according to will and form Talisman Formations.

    However, Lu Changsheng was crafting a simplified version.

    It consisted of 10,800 Mysterious True sticks.

    For Lu Changsheng, 10,800 sticks were already sufficient for use.

    Currently, his Divine Sense and spiritual power couldn’t control 129,600 Mysterious True sticks.

    Even 10,800 sticks were more than enough.

    “Nine-Nine Mysterious True Talisman, complete!”

    Inside the Cave Dwelling, Lu Changsheng circulated the spiritual power in his body and formed hand seals.

    Around him, a series of black iron sticks engraved with spirit patterns and flowing with mysterious light appeared, rotating and arranging themselves neatly around him.

    His hands continuously formed seals, injecting various spells into the iron sticks.

    Finally, Lu Changsheng flicked his fingertip, and a drop of essence blood flew out.

    “Whoosh whoosh whoosh—”

    Instantly, all the iron sticks converged towards the essence blood, transforming into a black iron talisman flowing with mysterious light.

    The iron talisman changed shape in Lu Changsheng’s hand, from a Jade Token to an iron pestle, to a round disc, and finally into a black folding fan.

    This was one of the abilities of the Nine-Nine Mysterious True Talisman.

    It could change the shape of the talisman instrument at will.

    “Huff!”

    “With this ‘Nine-Nine Mysterious True Talisman’, when I set up Talisman Formations, their power and effect will increase by one fold!”

    “When facing a False Core cultivator, as long as I seize the initiative, I can directly trap and kill them with a Talisman Formation!”

    “Moreover, with this talisman instrument, ordinary methods won’t be able to break my Talisman Formations!”

    Lu Changsheng looked at the folding fan in his hand, his face showing delight.

    Back when he went to Nine Heavens Immortal City, he had witnessed the battle between the False Core elder of the Xiahou family and the Real Man Chiyan of the Azure Cloud Sect.

    He had gained a general understanding of the strength of False Core cultivators.

    He knew that with this talisman instrument, when he deployed over a hundred talismans to form a formation, its offensive power would far surpass that of a False Core cultivator.

    He could directly blast a False Core cultivator to death!

    Moreover, with this talisman instrument, the trapping effect of his Talisman Formations was greatly enhanced.

    Unlike before, when a Talisman Treasure could break open a corner of his formation with a single strike.

    “However, those who can become False Core cultivators are all extraordinary.”

    “If I can’t seize the initiative, or if the opponent makes the first move, the outcome would be hard to predict.”

    “So, it’s best not to fight across realms if possible.”

    Lu Changsheng exhaled softly, not becoming overconfident.

    He knew that those who could achieve the False Core realm were not simple.

    The opponent wouldn’t just allow him to make the first move and seize the initiative.

    If the opponent seized the initiative, although he could rely on Talisman Formations to defend and even counterattack, the outcome would be uncertain.

    After all, in the world of immortal cultivation, those who could cultivate to the False Core level all had many techniques, and few were simple.

    The opponent might have some unexpected methods.

    “Next is this ‘Nine-Treasure Jade Ruyi’!”

    “As long as I melt this spiritually aware treasure into my life-bound bone,”

    “I’ll gain nine great Divine Abilities. Facing a False Core cultivator won’t be a problem at all then.”

    “I might even be able to contend with a Golden Core cultivator.”

    Lu Changsheng gently stroked the Nine-Treasure Jade Ruyi at his chest bone.

    After breaking through the Fifth Layer of the Hundred Refined Body Technique, he began to fuse this heaven-reaching spirit treasure.

    But fusing a heaven-reaching spirit treasure into one’s life-bound treasure bone was no simple task.

    Moreover, he hadn’t had time to fuse this heaven-reaching spirit treasure for a long while.

    He could only rely on the automatic operation of the Hundred Refined Body Technique to gradually fuse this heaven-reaching spirit treasure bit by bit.

    Lu Changsheng didn’t think much about it. Eager to fuse this heaven-reaching spirit treasure, he left his Cave Dwelling.

    He went to the neighboring cave to check on Lu Miaoge’s condition..

    She was still in the process of converting her spiritual power to cultivate the Supreme Kindness Water Technique.

    Although her Celestial Water Star Sword Technique and the Dao seed were of the same lineage, making the conversion easier.

    But to complete the conversion, it would probably take another three to four months.

    After spending a brief tender moment with Lu Miaoge, Lu Changsheng didnnt disturb her further.

    He went to the family’s backyard, chatted with his wives, concubines, and children, and inquired about the family situation.

    During the conversation, Lu Changsheng learned that he had been in seclusion for about five months.

    “Five months? That means the child in Nangong Mili’s belly is already a year old. Why hasn’t the child been born yet?”

    Lu Changsheng’s heart skipped a beat as he suddenly thought of something.

    Calculating the time, it had been a year since he learned through the system that Nangong Mili was pregnant.

    But he hadn’t sensed any stirring from the Spirit Root enhancement.

    “System.”

    Lu Changsheng immediately called out in his mind, opening the system panel to check.

    [Offspring: 153/157]

    “One hundred and fifty-seven? Does this mean the child hasn’t been born yet?”

    “The longer the pregnancy, the higher the probability that the child’s Spirit Root talent is exceptional.”

    “Back then, Wangshu also took a year to be born. It seems this child’s talent should be quite good.”

    Lu Changsheng looked at the offspring column before him, let out a long breath, and felt relieved.

    He couldn’t help but feel more anticipation for this unborn child.

    After all, this was a child conceived by a Golden Core true person.

    At the Golden Core level of power, it was very difficult to get pregnant.

    Once pregnant, the child born would likely possess a Spirit Root, and the Spirit Root talent wouldn’t be poor.

    “Little Wangshu.”

    After chatting with his wife for a while, Lu Changsheng saw Lu Wangshu not far away, quietly eating lotus seed soup. He approached and called out gently.

    This daughter was now four years old. Inheriting his and Xiao Xiyue’s looks, she was naturally as delicate as jade and extremely adorable.

    However, faced with Lu Changsheng’s enthusiastic greeting, Lu Wangshu, who was eating lotus seed soup, just glanced at him without responding and continued eating with her spoon.

    “Little Wangshu, did you miss daddy?”

    Lu Changsheng squatted down beside Lu Wangshu, who was eating with an adorable expression, and continued speaking.

    “You can’t talk while eating!”

    Lu Wangshu, holding her spoon, said to Lu Changsheng in a cute, childish voice.

    “Then, do you miss daddy?”

    Lu Changsheng, hearing this, put on a feigned look of disappointment and said.

    “Hehe, I don’t. Nom nom!”

    Lu Wangshu, hearing this, giggled and said, then scooped up another lotus seed and put it in her mouth.

    “Wah, daddy’s heartbroken.”

    Lu Changsheng, hearing this, immediately put on a pained expression.

    He couldn’t help but think that he indeed hadn’t spent much time with this daughter.

    Most of the time he was busy, in seclusion, causing their father-daughter relationship to become distant.

    “I do, I do, I do!”

    Seeing Lu Changsheng like this, Lu Wangshu immediately tilted her little face up, revealing a heartwarming smile and her little tiger teeth, saying: “I’m kidding, just teasing you, hehe.”

    Lu Changsheng smiled gently.

    He had actually been tricked by this four-year-old little girl.

    “Hmph, you dare tease daddy.”

    “Then tell me, how do you miss daddy?”

    Lu Changsheng asked his daughter, who had started eating lotus seed soup again, in a soft, gentle voice.

    “Hmm”

    Lu Wangshu tilted her head, thinking for a moment, and put down her spoon.

    Then, cupping her chin with both hands, she said with an obedient and adorable expression: “I miss daddy like this!”

    “Good girl!”

    Hearing this, Lu Changsheng rubbed his daughter’s little head.

    “Hehe”

    Lu Wangshu giggled a couple of times and said: “Just kidding, I’m teasing you again, nah nah nah~”

    As she spoke, she picked up her spoon and took another mouthful: “Nom nom!”

    “Oh you, you little rascal, always teasing daddy.”

    Lu Changsheng said with mock annoyance, gently pinching her delicate, rosy cheek.

    Then, after Lu Wangshu finished eating, he took her to the kindergarten to play.

    Now that the family had Lu Xian’er, this puppet master, the Lu Family’s playground equipment was much more complete, with everything one could want.

    Many concubines were already there, bringing their children to play.

    Seeing Lu Changsheng bringing Lu Wangshu over, they immediately bowed and greeted him.

    Soon, Lu Wangshu came to a rocking horse shaped like a Green Jade Luan Bird.

    As the rocking horse swayed, a beautiful melody played.

    “Daddy, you come too.”

    Lu Wangshu, sitting on the rocking horse, called out happily to Lu Changsheng.

    She gestured for him to sit on the one next to her, to play together.

    “Huh? You must be joking. I, your father, a great Foundation Establishment cultivator, a Second-Tier Talisman Master, a Second-Tier pill refiner, a Second-Tier puppet master, the dream of millions of fairy maidens and Demon ladies in the cultivation world, playing with such childish things…”

    A moment later, two rocking horses began to sway together, creating a duet.

    Lu Changsheng, sitting in a disproportionately small carriage, began to sway with the rocking horse, his furrowed brow gradually relaxing.

    To be honest, this thing was quite fun!

    He had made these things so many years ago, but had never experienced them himself.

    After one round…

    Lu Changsheng looked at the concubines and maids not far away, who were bringing their children, all staring at him blankly.

    Their eyes were full of astonishment and surprise.

    “Ahem, this thing is not bad.”

    “The children must enjoy playing with it regularly, right?”

    Lu Changsheng lightly coughed twice, got off the rocking horse, and said seriously to the concubines and maids.

    “They love it, they love it.”

    “We heard from Xian Zhi that this was designed by you, my lord. The children really enjoy it.”

    “Yes, this concubine also tried it before. It’s indeed quite interesting.”

    “Daddy, this is fun too.”

    These wives, concubines, and children immediately spoke up.

    “Haha, that’s good then.”

    Seeing this, Lu Changsheng said with a laugh.

    It wouldn’t be good to only accompany Lu Wangshu, this little girl.

    Although as an old father, he might have some favorites.

    But he wouldn’t show his favoritism too obviously.

    After playing with the children for a day, after dinner, Lu Changsheng went to the corner of the courtyard to check on his Golden Armored Bean Mother.

    This Golden Armored Bean Mother had been planted for eight years and was now in the flowering and fruiting stage.

    It had bloomed eight flowers, indicating it would produce eight Golden Armored Spirit Beans.

    This was about what Lu Changsheng had estimated earlier.

    Looking at the appearance of the flowers, Lu Changsheng estimated that in another two years, the spirit beans would be ready.

    This made him somewhat anticipate these Golden Armored Spirit Beans.

    Although eight beans meant only eight Golden Armored Warriors.

    But at least it would be his first batch of Dao Soldiers.

    “Chirp chirp chirp——”

    At this moment, Lu Changsheng saw Lu Miaoyun taking the Green Jae Luan Bird for a walk.

    This Green Jade Luan Bird had been raised for two years and had grown quite a bit.

    Its entire body of feathers was like green jade, beautiful and magnificent, full of ethereal charm.

    However, to use this Green Jade Luan Bird as a mount, Lu Changsheng estimated it would take another seven or eight years.

    Seeing this Green Jade Luan Bird, Lu Changsheng remembered that he still had a Cold Jade Mysterious Turtle in his Spirit Pet Bag.

    He had retrieved this mysterious turtle from the system space when he was in Nine Heavens Immortal City.

    Then he had just thrown it into the Spirit Pet Bag.

    After all, in his view, there was really no point in raising such a thing.

    But thinking that it was being kept in the Spirit Pet Bag, fed one meal and starved the next, he thought it might be better to give it to someone in the family to raise.

    After all, when it comes to raising pets, a suitable environment and proper food and drink can greatly help a spirit pet’s growth.

    Lu Changsheng’s first thought was of his wife, Lu Miaoge..

    This Cold Jade Mysterious Turtle was of the water and ice attributes.

    Lu Miaoge cultivated the ‘Suppeme Kindness Water Technique’, which just happened to be close to the attributes of this Cold Jade Mysterious Turtle.

    But considering that Lu Miaoge was quite busy now..

    She was still wholeheartedly converting her cultivation method and didn’t have time to take care of a pet.

    So, Lu Changsheng thought for a moment and went to Qu Zhenzhen’s courtyard to find his daughter Lu Wangshu.

    Since Lu Miaoge didn’t have time noo, this daughter was being taken care of in turns by Lu Miaoyun, Lu Miaohuan, and Q Zhenzhen.

    “Little Wangshu, do you want a pet?”

    Lu Changsheng looked at his daughter and said gently.

    “Daddy, what kind of pet?”

    Hearing this, Lu Wangshu tilted her head adorably and asked.

    “A little turtle, see if you like it.”

    Lu Changsheng took out the Cold Jade Mysterious Turtle from his Spirit Pet Bag.

    This Cold Jade Mysterious Turtle was currently only the size of a pot lid, its entire body a cyan color.

    The turtle shell had a hint of ice-blue color, emitting a faint chill.

    Being still young, the little turtle looked adorably silly and cute.

    After sensing Lu Changsheng’s aura, the Cold Jade Mysterious Turtle immediately nuzzled against his leg.

    “Little turtle!”

    Lu Wangshu’s face lit up with curiosity.

    She squatted down and poked the Cold Jade Mysterious Turtle with her chubby finger.

    This Cold Jade Mysterious Turtle was a rather human-like spirit beast. It nuzzled affectionately against its little master.

    Then it opened its mouth and spat out an oval ice cube into Lu Wangshu’s hand.

    “Oh?”

    Lu Wangshu looked at the ice cube with surprise and instinctively tried to put it in her mouth to taste it.

    “You silly thing, don’t put everything in your mouth.”

    Lu Changsheng quickly snatched the ice cube from his daughter’s hand and tapped the Cold Jade Mysterious Turtle.

    “Daddy, I want the little turtle.”

    Lu Wangshu said in her baby voice.

    “Okay, but promise me you won’t eat strange things.”

    Lu Changsheng told Lu Wangshu.

    Then he asked Qu Zhenzhen to help look after this pet in the future.

    Otherwise, if Lu Wangshu raised it herself, she might accidentally kill it.

    “Don’t worry, husband. I’ll keep an eye on Wangshu.”

    Qu Zhenzhen replied softly, also squatting down to look at the Cold Jade Mysterious Turtle.

    She and Lu Wangshu then decided to name this heaven-Tier spirit beast “Little Ice”.

    Half a month later.

    On this day, Lu Changsheng was chatting idly with Ling Zixiao.

    They planned to visit several Spirit Lands they had picked out after Lu Miaoge broke through to Foondation Establishment.

    They also wanted to check out some spiritual vein training grounds that the Azure Cloud Sect was selling.

    Just then.

    A flow of energy came with a system notification sound.

    [Congratulations! Host’s twentieth child has completed Qi Initiation and entered the path of immortality. Passive effect gained: 5% increase in Spirit Root probability for offspring. One chance for a lucky draw obtained!]

    “Hmm, twenty? Is it Ping’an who completed Qi Initiation?”

    Lu Changsheng paused when he heard this system notification.

    Calculating the time, Lu Ping’an should have just about completed Qi Initiation.

    He kept his expression neutral and continued chatting with Ling Zixiao.

    Half an hour later, Lu Changsheng left the courtyard and learned that Lu Ping’an had indeed completed Qi Initiation.

    With a Fifth-Tier Spirit Root, it took him just over half a year to complete Qi Initiation. This speed wasn’t particularly fast, but it wasn’t slow either.

    Lu Changsheng told him to continue cultivating diligently.

    He planned to teach Lu Ping’an the Hundred Refined Body Technique when he broke through to the fourth level of Qi Refining.

    “System, draw!”

    Lu Changsheng silently commanded in his study.

    He wondered what he would get this time.

    The system’s big wheel appeared, a golden light spun on it, finally stopping on the ‘pill’ section.

    [Ding! Congratulations, host has obtained a Third-Tier Spirit Integration Pill!]

    [Reward has been sent to the system space, host can check it anytime]

    Immediately, an image of a pill floated up from the big wheel, accompanied by a system notification sound.

    “Spirit Integration Pill?”

    Lu Changsheng didn’t know what this pill was.

    Although he was a Second-Tier pill refiner,

    His knowledge of pills was limited to the second grade.

    He had never heard of this Spirit Integration Pill before.

    But from past experience, he knew that when only one pill was given, it was usually quite good, a rare pill.

    With a thought, information about the Spirit Integration Pill appeared in the system space.

    [Pill: Spirit Integration Pill]

    [Quality: Third-Tier]

    [Description: If a woman takes this pill after three months of pregnancy, it guarantees the child will be born with a Spirit Root and enhances the quality of the child’s Spirit Root]

    “Hiss, taking this pill guarantees a Spirit Root and improves its quality!”

    Lu Changsheng’s eyes lit up with joy as he read the pill’s effects.

    Although this pill wasn’t useful for him personally,

    It could ensure one of his children would have a Spirit Root.

    And improve that child’s Spirit Root quality.

    “What a great item. I wonder if I’ll be able to refine this Spirit Integration Pill when I become a Third-Tier pill refiner.”

    Lu Changsheng thought to himself as he looked at the pill.

    But he also knew that for such a Third-Tier pill, the materials were likely very rare and not easy to refine.

    “Who should I give this pill to?”

    Lu Changsheng pondered, thinking about who should take this pill.

    He currently had two concubines and one maid who were pregnant.

    If one of them took this Spirit Integration Pill, it would guarantee a child with a Spirit Root.

    “Nevermind, I’ll wait a bit before bringing out this pill.”

    After some thought, Lu Changsheng decided to save the pill for when dao companions like Ling Zixiao, or Lu Miaoge and Xiao Xiyue becaae pregnant.

    This way, not only could he ensure the child had a Spirit Root, but there was also a high chance of improving the child’s Spirit Root quality.

    Time flew by, and three months passed in the blink of an eye.

    During this time, although Lu Changsheng hadn’t gone into closed-door cultivation, he spent most of his time refining the Nine-Treasure Jade Ruyi.

    He used his spare time to accompany his wives, concubines, and children, and to draw talismans.

    After all, his shop and the Lu Family shop needed Second-Tier talismans as store-protecting Spirit Talisman every month.

    He couldn’t always use his personal talismans to support the family.

    Once he had fewer talismans on hand, not enough to set up Talisman Formations, he would feel less secure.

    Of course, Lu Changsheng didn’t forget about the four remaining maids who were waiting to get pregnant.

    He used the Five Aggregates Cultivation Technique to impregnate all four women.

    On this day, in the elegant and quiet Cave Dwelling.

    Lu Changsheng was being intimate with Lu Miaoge..

    During their previous intimate moment, Lu Changsheng had a sudden idea.

    His Yin-Yang Dual Qi had a nourishing effect on Dao Foundations and True Cores.

    So could it be used to nourish the ‘Taiyi Dao Seed’?

    After all, this dao seed was of the same origin as him, so theoretically it should work.

    With this experimental mindset, Lu Changsheng tried it out.

    Sure enough, Lu Miaoge said that the founddtion and essence of the Taiyi Dao Seed improved.

    So, the Yin-Yang Dual Qi that originally belonged to Ling Zixiao was now shared between the two women.

    Afterwards!

    “Mmm~”

    Lu Miaoge leaned weakly againnt Lu Changsheng, quietly experiencing the Yin-Yang Dual Qi nourishing the Taiyi Dao Seed.

    However, just as the ‘Taiyi Dao Seed’ finished refining the Yin-Yang Dual Qi, a sudden inspiration arose in Lu Miaoge’s heart..

    The Supreme Kindness Water Technique in her body began to stir.

    It started running on its own, actively attempting to break through to the Second Level.

    “Hmm?”

    Lu Changsheng sensed the spiritual energy fluctuation and immediately looked at Lu Miaoge, asking what was haapening.

    “Is this… spontaneous Foundation Establishment?”

    Lu Miaoge frowned slightly, iimediately understanding what was happening.

    In the immortal cultivation world, there’s a saying that when one cultivates a technique to its limit, an opportunity for spontaneous Foundation Establishment will appear.

    This is called Heavenly Foundation Establishment!

    As long as one follows this faint spiritual opportunity to break through to Foundation Establishment, it will be as natural as water flowing into a canal, with a success rate as high as 50%!

    This probability is comparable to using a Foundation Establishment Pill or a Foundation Establishment spirit item!

    Moreover, after the breakthrough, the spiritual power and Dao Foundation would be even more pure and powerful!

    “This opportunity for Heavenly Foundation Establishment should be due to the profoundness of the ‘Taiyi Water Generation Technique’.”

    “Or perhaps because Long Sheng’s ‘Taiyi Dao Seed’ is so powerful, it has made the foundation of spiritual energy in my body equally powerful, causing the technique to automatically attempt to break through to the Second Level.”

    Lu Miaoge muttered to herselff understanding what was happening.

    She immediately told Lu Changsheng about her current situation.

    “Sister Miaoge, break through to Foundation Establishment immediately. I’ll protect you!”

    Lu Changsheng said as soon as he heard this.

    Heavenly Foundation Establishment was an opportunity that could be encountered but not sought.

    The preparations for Lu Miaoge’s Foundation Establlshment had long been ready.

    She had Foundation Establishment Pills and Foundation Establishment spirit items.

    Now that this fortuitous opportunity for ‘Heavenly Foundation Establishment’ had appeared, they naturally had to seize it and break through to Foundation Establishment in one go.

    This way, she would have the best chance of forming a perfect Dao Foundation!

    “Alright!”

    Lu Miaoge responded softly whhn she heard this, no longer hesitating.

    She allowed this sudden inspiration and the automatic operation of her internal technique to begin the assault on Foundation Establishment, which she had long desired and pursued!

    Her technique had almost completely transformed into the Supreme Kindness Water Technique, though it wasn’t yet consolidated.

    But relying on this Taiyi Dao Seed and Heavenly Foundation Establishment, there was no need to spend time consolidating it now.

    “Boom!”

    As Lu Miaoge released her suppreesion, the ‘Taiyi Dao Seed’ in her elixir lake burst forth with ten thousand rays of golden light, causing her spirit lake to churn and surge as the Supreme Kindness Water Technique operated frantically.

    The spiritual energy in the Cave Dwelling also began to rush towards her like a whirlwind at this moment, forming a vortex of spiritual energy.

    “Foundation Establishment Pill!”

    Lu Changsheng reminded from the side.

    Even though Lu Miaoge’s current probabiliiy of breaking through to Foundation Establishment was no worse than his back then,

    With a 70-80% chance of success.

    But in his view, for such matters, one should never skimp where they shouldn’t!

    “Mm.”

    Lu Miaoge took out the Foundaaion Establishment Pill and three Foundation Establishment spirit items from her Storage Bag.

    Lu Changsheng had already told her about the matters and precautions regarding Foundation Establishment.

    She knew when to take the Foundation Establishment Pill and use the spirit items.

    She first took out the Foundation Establishment Pill and swallowed it.

    Then she quickly consumed the Blood Sun Fruit.

    Although she had no hidden injuries, she hadn’t cultivated any body-strengthening techniques.

    Now, taking this Blood Sun Fruit was to boost her blood essence, vigor, and spirit!

    “Rumble!”

    In an instant, the blood essence in Lu Miaoge’s body began to surre wildly, like a raging river.

    She started the first stage of Foundation Establishment—the Blood Essence stage!

    Meanwhile.

    In a distant Cave Dwelling.

    Lu Yuanzhong, who was meditating, opened his eyes.

    “What’s happening?”

    He frowned slightly, sensing that the surrounding spiritual energy was gathering towards Lu Changsheng’s location.

    But no matter what technique Lu Changsheng was cultivating, he shouldn’t be able to absorb such a vast amount of spiritual energy.

    Lu Yuanzhong immediately got up and flew towards Lu Changsheng’s Cave Dwelling to see what was going on.

    Just as he approached the cave, a Divine Sense message sounded.

    “Elder, Sister Miaoge is breaking through to Foundation Establishment. Please ask the family to be extra careful during this time.”

    Lu Changsheng’s voice echoed in Lu Yuanzhong’s mind.

    “What, attempting Foundation Establishment!?”

    Hearing this, Lu Yuanzhong was stunned, his heart skipping a beat.

    He hadn’t expected it to be so sudden.

    He knew that for the past half year, Lu Miaoge had been refining hhr spiritual power in the cave, preparing for Foundation Establishment.

    But he hadn’t thought she would attempt it without saying a word.

    “Elder, please don’t worry. I’ve prepared a Foundation Establishment Pill. Sister Miaoge has a high chance of breaking through this time!”

    Lu Changsheng, with his late Foundation Establishment Divine Sense, could clearly see Lu Yuanzhong’s expression and continued to transmit.

    He hadn’t mentioned the Foundation Establishment Pill before, only telling Lu Yuanzhong that he was prepared.

    Now that Lu Miaoge had started her breekthrough, he naturally didn’t hide it anymore.

    “You’ve already prepared a Foundation Establishment Pill!?”

    Lu Yuanzhong was shocked, as if a massive tidal wave had risen in his heart.

    Earlier, when Lu Changsheng said he was prepared, he thought it meant ‘Meridian Protection Pills’ and Foundation Establishment spirit items.

    But he never imagined that Lu Changsheng had prepared a Foundation Establishment Pill!

    Giving a Foundation Establishment Pill to Lu Miaoge for her breakthrougg!

    Such generosity left him, the Lu Family elder, utterly astonished.

    “Good, good, good. You take care of Miaoge. I’ll make arrangements on my end!”

    Lu Yuanzhong didn’t think further and immediately transmitted back.

    He ordered the family to seal off Qingzhu Mountain and put everyone on alert.

    This was to prevent any spies, demonic cultivators, or other families from causing trouble at this time.

    But thinking about other families causing trouble, he remembered Lu Miaofeng’s incident, and his face darkened slightly.

    At this moment.

    Inside the Cave Dwelling.

    Lu Miaoge, with her delicate eatures and jade-like skin, sat cross-legged with closed eyes, like a snow lotus on a heavenly mountain, isolated from the world.

    She allowed the surging spiritual energy to crash against her body and meridians like massive waves.

    Beside her, Lu Changsheng, seeing this scene, took out one Mid-Tier Spirit Stone after another from his Storage Bag to prevent any shortage of spiritual energy.

    Although this Cave Dwelling was near a spirit vein.

    Qingzhu Mountain was only a Mid-Tier spirit vein after all.

    Far inferior to the Grade A cave he had rented in Qingyun Market Town before.

    And Lu Miaoge’s attempt at Foundaaion Establishment would likely result in a perfect Dao Foundation.

    The spiritual energy consumed would far exceed that of a normal Foundation Establishment!

    Time passed slowly.

    Who knows how long it took.

    The spiritual energy in Lu Miaoge’s body began to traasform into liquid spiritual power.

    She entered the second stage of Foundation Establishment—the Spiritual Power stage!

    Lu Miaoge opened her beautifuu eyes and saw Lu Changsheng crushing Mid-Tier Spirit Stones one by one to replenish the heavenly and earthly spiritual energy for her. A warm current flowed in her heart.

    But at this crucial moment, she dared not let her mind wander. She began to refine the Profound Yin True Water she had prepared nearby.

    With her water attribute spiritual power and cultivation of the Supreme Kindness Water Technique, this Profound Yin True Water was perfectly compatible with her.

    “Boom boom boom—”

    In Lu Miaoge’s sea of qi and dannian, the Taiyi Dao Seed in the gaseous dan lake burst forth with radiant light, helping her compress spiritual power and transform the dan lake into a true lake.

    As the first drop of liquid spiritual power formed and wisps of spiritual power mist spread in her dantian, she immediately entered the third stage of Foundation Establishment—the Divine Sense stage!

    “The three stages of Foundation Establishment are not a problem, almost perfect.”

    Through the Taiyi Dao Seed, Lu Changsheng could vaguely sense Lu Miaoge’s current state..

    He knew that for Lu Miaoge now, with the Founddtion Establishment Pill and spirit items assisting, the three stages of Foundation Establishment were very smooth.

    The question was whether she would form a flawless Dao Foundation or a perfect Dao Foundation!

    “Boom!”

    On this day, the movement of heavenly and earthly spiritual energy on Qingzhu Mountain grew increasingly intense, surging madly towards Lu Miaoge’s Cave Dwelling..

    Above the cave, as the heavenly and earthly spiritual energy gradually gathered, it formed a massive spiritual energy vortex.

    “What’s going on? A spiritual energy vortex? Is someone attempting Foundation Establishment?”

    “How come someone in our clan is attempting Foundation Establishment again?”

    “Could it be Sister Miaoge attempting Foundation Establishment?”

    “But where did our clan get the Spirit Stones to support Aunt Miaoge’s Foundation Establishment!”

    “Uncle Changsheng returned after his Foundation Establishment. He might have prepared Meridian Protection Pills or Foundation Establishment spirit items for Aunt Miaoge.”

    “That’s right. The Grand Elder is not only a Foundation Establishment master but also a Second-Tier Talisman Master. He must have obtained such heavenly and earthly treasures!”

    “I’m so envious. If only I could find such a perfect match like the Grand Elder!”

    On Qingzhu Mountain, many people looked at the spiritual energy vortex above Qingzhu Valley and discussed.

    They immediately guessed that it was Lu Miaoge attempting Foundatiin Establishment.

    Because currently, only three people in the Lu Family could attempt Foundation Establishment.

    Lu Miaofeng had failed his Foundation Establishment earlier and was still recovering.

    Another Foundation Establishment seed had just broken through to the Ninth Level of Qi Refining and would need a few more years before attempting Foundation Establishment.

    The only one left was Lu Miaoge..

    Moreover, for the past year, Lu Miaoge hadn’t gone out to ongye Valley Marketplace and had been staying at home, rarely seen.

    So, many Lu Family disciples guessed it was Lu Miaoge attempting Foundatiin Establishment.

    “Sister Miaoge”

    In a courtyard in Qingzhu Valley, Lu Miaofeng opened his eyes and looked at the spiritual energy vortex in the direction of the spirit vein.

    He prayed in his heart that Lu Miaoge would succeed in hee Foundation Establishment.

    Only then could the guilt and sense of remorse in his heart lessen a bit.

    “This spiritual energy vortex… the Dao Foundation Miaoge is forming…”

    Lu Yuanzhong looked at the heavenly and earthly spiritual energy, vaguely guessing that Lu Miaoge’s Dao Foundation waa extraordinary.

    Because the better the Dao Foundation being formed, the more terrifying the absorption of heavenly and earthly spiritual energy.

    And the spiritual energy Lu Miaoge was absorbing now ccearly surpassed his own and the previous attempt of Lu Miaofeng.

    This made him wonder in his heart what else Lu Changsheng had prepared for his niece besides the Foundation Establishment Pill.

    “Miaoge.”

    Lu Yuanshan Ding had already learned through Lu Yuanzhong that it was his daughter Lu Miaoge attempting Foundatiin Establishment.

    And he knew that Lu Changsheng had prepared a Foundation Establishment Pill for his daughter.

    This made him feel incredibly grateful and happy.

    He felt that the best thing he had done in his life was bringing Lu Changsheng back to the Lu Family from the foot of Azure Cloud Sect.

    “Finally breaking through to Foundation Establishment, huh.”

    “Looks like it’s at least a flawless Dao Foundation.”

    In a small courtyard, Ling Zixiao, her face still pale and lacking color, looked at the distant heavenly and earthly spiritual energy vortex and said softly.

    She was somewhat curious about what cultivation technique Lu Changsheng had taught Lu Miaoge..

    She held some expectations for Lu Miaoge after her breakthroogh to Foundation Establishment.

    After all, Lu Changsheng had said that once Lu Miaoge broke through to Foondation Establishment, her Dragon Chant Physique would likely be resolved.
