Chapter Index

    Five Poison Sect, Heavenly Spider Peak.

    Inside an opulent hall adorned with intricate carvings and exotic insects.

    “The Immaculate Heavenly Fragrance Body naturally connects all meridians. There are no bottlenecks before Foundation Establishment. It brings longevity and some resistance to various poisons and venoms.”

    “The body emits a fragrance that draws others near. After breaking through to Golden Core, it gains heaven’s favor. When facing the Nascent Soul heavenly tribulation, it can slightly weaken the power of the lightning tribulation.”

    Nangong Mili held a Jade Scroll, reading its contents. Her bewitchingly beautiful face lit up with joy.

    Since her daughter Nangong Yaoyao was born, her mood had improved considerably.

    Based on her daughter’s physical condition and natural fragrance, she knew her child possessed a rare Spirit Body.

    After collecting much information about spirit bodies and dao bodies, she finally determined her daughter Nangong Yaoyao’s constitution.

    The Immaculate Heavenly Fragrance Body!

    “My Yaoyao has the potential to reach Nascent Soul in the future!”

    Nangong Mili looked towards the black jade bed, where Nangong Yaoyao slept in a five-colored jade cauldron. The baby’s skin was translucent and delicate. Maternal love flowed from Nangong Mili’s long phoenix eyes.

    As a Golden Core cultivator, she knew well the difficulties of breaking through to Nascent Soul.

    Not to mention the countless hurdles and bottlenecks between the two major realms that many Golden Core cultivators struggle with for their entire lives.

    Just the two major tribulations when breaking through to Nascent Soul – the heart demon tribulation and the Nascent Soul lightning tribulation – made countless Golden Core true persons retreat in fear.

    After all.

    When breaking through to Foundation Establishment, with a Foundation Establishment Pill, even if the breakthrough fails, one only suffers some injuries.

    When breaking through to Golden Core, with full preparations, even if the breakthrough fails, one can still preserve their life, and might even form a False Core.

    But when breaking through to Nascent Soul, under the heart demon tribulation and lightning tribulation, a slight mistake leads to death and dissipation into ashes!

    So any Golden Core cultivator, upon hearing of methods to increase the chances of passing the heart demon tribulation and Nascent Soul lightning tribulation, would spare no effort to seek and try them.

    Especially for demonic cultivators, when breaking through to Nascent Soul, both the heart demon tribulation and Nascent Soul lightning tribulation would be even stronger.

    So this seemingly insignificant effect appeared incredibly precious in Nangong Mili’s eyes.

    After all, her daughter possessed a Top-Tier Spirit Body, so her spirit root must be exceptional as well.

    With such talent, she was confident in nurturing her daughter step by step to Golden Core!

    After achieving Golden Core, the rest of the path would depend on her daughter’s own efforts.

    And after breaking through to Golden Core, the Immaculate Heavenly Fragrance Body’s subtle luck and heaven’s favor, slightly weakening the Nascent Soul lightning tribulation, became extremely important!

    “Mmm~”

    At this moment, the baby in the five-colored jade cauldron opened her eyes, slightly confused.

    Upon seeing Nangong Mili, she immediately called out in a milky voice: “Mommy!”

    Her voice was childish, her words unclear. She reached out with her chubby, pink little hands towards Nangong Mili, calling: “Mommy… hug!”

    “Yaoyao~”

    Nangong Mili immediately picked up her daughter, her face full of doting love.

    Although her daughter was only a year old, her body was different from ordinary babies. She climbed all over Nangong Mili’s jade-like body like climbing a tree, very playfully.

    “Master!”

    Just as the mother and daughter were happily playing, a voice sounded from outside the hall.

    “What is it?”

    Nangong Mili asked.

    “The Sect Leader asked you to see her after you come out of seclusion.”

    Meng Xiaochan spoke, saying this.

    “Sect Leader…”

    Nangong Mili’s phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, then she carried her daughter Yaoyao out of the hall.

    “Xiaochan, help me look after Yaoyao for a while.”

    Regarding her daughter Nangong Yaoyao, Nangong Mili hadn’t kept it a secret.

    However, she told others that she had found and adopted this daughter.

    “Come, Yaoyao, let big sister hold you.”

    Meng Xiaochan wore a purple dress, her features delicate.

    Due to cultivating the Wan Du Shi Xin Art, her ethereal and elusive aura gained a dreamy and confusing quality.

    “Big sister…”

    The little girl wasn’t shy at all. After hugging Meng Xiaochan, she made a “mwah” sound, biting Meng Xiaochan’s flawless white cheek, leaving some drool, then giggled.

    “You little mischief-maker.”

    Seeing this scene, Nangong Mili’s beautiful face showed no trace of bewitching charm, only indulgence.

    After instructing Meng Xiaochan a few more times, she turned into a beam of divine light and left.

    “Smells nice.”

    Nangong Yaoyao lay in Meng Xiaochan’s arms and made two more “mwah” sounds, mumbling unclearly.

    “Yaoyao smells nice too!”

    Meng Xiaochan said with a hint of indulgence, kissing the little girl’s pink, sweet cheeks twice.

    She could clearly smell the fragrant aroma from Nangong Yaoyao’s skin.

    This scent was very pleasant, reminding her of Lu Changsheng every time she smelled it.

    Because when she was with Lu Changsheng, he gave off a refreshing scent that made her feel close and comfortable when near him.

    And Nangong Yaoyao’s fragrance gave her the same feeling.

    “Lu Lang must know that Master was pregnant with Yaoyao, right?”

    Meng Xiaochan looked at the exquisitely cute little girl in her arms, slightly lost in thought.

    Although Nangong Mili said Yaoyao was an adopted daughter she had picked up.

    As Nangong Mili’s disciple, she guessed this was her master’s and Lu Changsheng’s child as soon as she saw the baby.

    After all, the eyebrows, eyes, nose, and mouth were exactly like her master’s, and she could clearly see Lu Changsheng’s shadow.

    Moreover, upon seeing this child, many of her previous doubts were resolved.

    Lu Changsheng’s change in attitude towards her master.

    His words at parting about taking good care of her master.

    And her master’s change in temperament when crossing the border with her.

    However, regarding this child, Meng Xiaochan’s feelings were somewhat complex.

    On one hand, her master and her lover had a child together.

    On the other hand, her master already knew about the Locking Emotion Gu.

    She worried that her master might have been influenced by the Locking Emotion Gu when giving birth to Nangong Yaoyao.

    After all, based on her understanding of her master’s personality, she should deeply resent Lu Changsheng after learning about the Locking Emotion Gu.

    Once the Locking Emotion Gu is removed, she might go cause trouble for Lu Changsheng.

    At that time, Nangong Mili’s attitude towards Nangong Yaoyao, this child, might change as well.

    Qingzhu Mountain.

    Inside a Cave Dwelling.

    Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge were removing corpss poison from Lu Yuanzhong.

    “Sister Miaoge, that’s enough.”

    Lu Changsheng said to Lu Miaoge, whose forehead wasscovered in a layer of fine sweat.

    Then he withdrew his hand and looked at Lu Yuanzhong, saying: “Uncle, I’ve removed the corpse poison entangled in your internal organs. The remaining poison has penetrated deep into your organs, and I can’t remove it.”

    After half a month of detoxification, he had removed about seventy to eighty percent of Lu Yuanzhong’s corpse poison.

    The remaining poison had penetrated deep into the organs over many years and couldn’t be completely removed.

    “I’m already very satisfied with this. Changsheng, Miaoge, thank you for your hard work.”

    Lu Yuanzhong sat up and thanked Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge..

    As seventy to eighty percent of the corpse poison was removed, he felt light all over.

    Although not as good as his peak condition, he should be able to live for a hundred years with minimal exertion.

    The only problem was that breaking through to mid Foundation Establishment seemed unlikely.

    Due to organ issues, it was considered damage to his foundation.

    “Uncle, you’re too kind.”

    Lu Changsheng said.

    Then he took out two Jade Slips from his Storage Bag and said: “Uncle, I heard that our family only has a few high-level techniques.”

    “I had some good fortune earlier and obtained two exquisite-level techniques. Uncle, please accept them.”

    Lu Changsheng took out the two exquisite-level techniques, “Purple Yang True Scripture” and “Green Wood Flame Yang Technique,” and handed them to Lu Yuanzhong.

    In these two years, he had been teaching these two techniques and the split Seven Luminaries to the children in the family.

    Thinking of the few high-level techniques that the Lu Family currently had as their trump cards, Lu Changsheng thought of sharing these two.

    Not to mention his relationships with Lu Miaoge, Lu Miaohuan, and LL Miaoge.

    Just in these two years, Qingzhu Mountain had provided both manpower and resources, helping his family quite a bit, so he was willing to support them.

    “Exquisite-level techniques!?”

    Lu Yuanzhong was surprised upon hearing this.

    Although he knew Lu Changsheng had great fortune and supreme inheritance!

    He didn’t expect Lu Changsheng to casually take out two exquisite-level techniques for him.

    It’s worth noting that technique inheritances are extremely rare in the cultivation world, and few people are willing to share or leak them.

    Otherwise, Qingzhu Mountain wouldn’t have only four high-level techniques after hundreds of years of inheritance.

    “Changsheng, this is too much.”

    Although Lu Yuanzhong was tempted and wanted to accept, he still felt a bit embarrassed.

    After all, these two techniques were too valuable, enough to serve as Qingzhu Mountain’s clan-protecting techniques.

    “Uncle, we’re all family. No need to be polite.”

    Lu Changsheng glanced at Lu Miaoge beside him and saiddwith a light smile.

    “Uncle, this is Changsheng’s sincere intention. Please accept it.”

    “Besides, these two techniques are just for our own family to cultivate.”

    Lu Miaoge gently pursed her llps and said softly.

    “If that’s the case, I’ll accept them.”

    “Changsheng, rest assured, our Lu Family won’t carelessly share these techniques!”

    Lu Yuanzhong took a deep breath and nodded firmly as he spoke.

    “Of course, I trust you on that.”

    After exchanging a few more words, Lu Changsheng left the Cave Dwelling with Lu Miaoge..

    “Ancestor, you were right back then. This Lu Changsheng has great fortune.”

    After Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge left, Lu Yuanzhong tared at the two Jade Slips in his hand, lost in thought, muttering to himself.

    He recalled his ancestor’s final words, stating that Lu Changsheng possessed great fortune and was a man of honor. The family should treat him well, as he might support them in the future.

    In his view, Lu Changsheng’s current achievements far exceeded his ancestor’s initial expectations.

    Even if his ancestor were still alive, he couldn’t have imagined that in just over ten years, Lu Changsheng would break through to Foundation Establishment and establish his own family.

    Moreover, he could casually give out two excellent techniques.

    “However, the closer our two families become, the more careful we must be. We need to be clear about certain matters. Only then can we avoid conflicts between the two families.”

    “Otherwise, while Changsheng is easygoing, others in his family might not be.”

    Lu Yuanzhong pondered silently, Ling Zixiao’s image flashing in his mind.

    Ling Zixiao had left a deep impression on him back then.

    He knew that although she seemed delicate, she was actually a strong-willed and domineering woman.

    Lu Changsheng might be casual and consider the relationship between the two families, but she might not.

    Moreover, Lu Changsheng wasn’t just an individual now; he represented a family.

    “Changsheng, thank you.”

    Walking in Qingzhu Valley, Lu Miaoge held Lu Changsheng” hand and said softly.

    Although she knew Lu Changsheng had many technique inheritances, she had never asked about them.

    Because she knew techniques were rare and valuable.

    Casually sharing them not only could bring trouble, but others could also use the techniques against them in the future.

    “Hehe, we’re all family after all.”

    Lu Changsheng held his wife’s delicate hand and said.

    Giving these two techniques was also because they were sponsored by kind people.

    As for techniques like Seven Luminaries, apart from his own family, he certainly wouldn’t share them with outsiders.

    Now that Lu Yuanzhong’s issue was mostly resolved, Lu Changsheng took his wife and children back to Bihu Mountain.

    As for Lu Miaoge, she couldn’t go baak together because someone needed to oversee the Hongye Valley Marketplace.

    In the blink of an eye, over a month passed.

    During this time, Lu Changsheng’s son, Lu Yun, took a concubine under Lu Miaoyun’s arrangement.

    She was one of the fifteen young women Lu Changsheng had brought back.

    The reason for taking a concubine was partly because Lu Yun was already twenty years old.

    On the other hand, it was also because Lu Changsheng encouraged and rewarded family members for marrying, taking concubines, and having children.

    As the family’s eldest son and Lu Miaoyun’s firstborn, Lu Yunnaturally had to set an example.

    However, Lu Miaoyun also wanted to finda better daughter-in-law for her son.

    At least to form an alliance with another family, so this was just taking a concubine.

    Regarding such matters, as long as both parties were willing, Lu Changsheng naturally wouldn’t say much and would agree and support it.

    On this day, Lu Changsheng sensed a slightly stronger surge of spiritual power entering his body.

    He knew one of his children had broken through to the fourth level of Qi Refining.

    In the afternoon, he received news that it was his eldest son, Lu Ping’an, who had broken through to the fourth level of Qi Refining.

    “Not bad.”

    Lu Changsheng looked at his son and said.

    Calculating the time, Lu Ping’an had only taken a little over three years to break through to the fourth level of Qi Refining.

    Although he had a good foundation from his early years and had pills to assist, this speed was indeed quite good.

    “Your father said before, when you break through to the fourth level of Qi Refining, I would teach you the true body tempering technique. Come with me.”

    Lu Changsheng said to Lu Ping’an.

    “Yes, Father!”

    Hearing this, Lu Ping’an immediately showed joy and anticipation, nodding in response.

    Then, the two came to the family’s secret room, and Lu Changsheng began to teach Lu Ping’an the Hundred Refined Body Technique.

    Although Lu Ping’an now had spiritual sense and could view Jade Slips with his mind,

    Lu Changsheng hadn’t yet inscribed these techniques onto Jade Slips.

    He still taught through oral transmission, guiding his spiritual power through Lu Ping’an’s meridians, explaining bit by bit.

    He broke down the content, key points, and profound meanings, explaining everything in detail to Lu Ping’an.

    “Have you remembered it all?”

    An hour later, Lu Changsheng asked his son Lu Ping’an.

    “Father, I’ve remembered it all!”

    Lu Ping’an nodded seriously.

    After hearing the technique, he also realized how powerful it was.

    It could temper the human body to be as hard as a Magical Treasure, which was simply terrifying.

    Even though he was now a grand master of martial arts and at the fourth level of Qi Refining, he could only face ordinary weapons.

    Once faced with magical Artifacts, he would find it hard to defend.

    “Good, now practice it for me to see.”

    Lu Changsheng told his son to start cultivating.

    “Yes.”

    Hearing this, Lu Ping’an began to try to circulate the technique.

    And so, time passed bit by bit.

    Lu Ping’an still couldn’t enter the right state.

    Lu Changsheng wasn’t in a hurry about this and waited quietly.

    No matter what technique, it’s always very difficult to enter the right state at the beginning.

    And since the Hundred Refined Body Technique was quite dangerous to practice, he didn’t dare let Lu Ping’an practice just like that.

    After about nine hours, Lu Ping’an finally entered the right state.

    Seeing this, Lu Changsheng’s face showed delight, thinking to himself that his son indeed had some talent for body tempering.

    He observed Lu Ping’an with his Divine Sense, paying attention to the circulation path of his technique. Whenever Lu Ping’an made a slight mistake, he immediately corrected him.

    In this way, it took four days for Lu Ping’an to fully master the basics of the technique.

    Afterwards, Lu Changsheng took out a gold essence stone and gave it to Lu Ping’an, telling him to absorb the essence of the material according to the technique, to nourish his physical body.

    Lu Ping’an took the gold essence stone, took a deep breath, and tried to absorb the essence of the material.

    Under Lu Changsheng’s guidance and teaching, it took two days for Lu Ping’an to gradually be able to absorb the essence of the material.

    However, this speed was very slow, extremely slow.

    But in Lu Changsheng’s view, at least it could be considered barely entry-level.

    “Familiarize yourself with these first. I’ll teach you the follow-up in a while.”

    Lu Changsheng said.

    Currently, Lu Ping’an had only mastered the most basic entry-level of the Hundred Refined Body Technique.

    The truly difficult parts were techniques like ‘Refining Treasures into the Body’, ‘Treasure Bone Technique’, ‘Fusing Natal Treasure Bone’, and so on.

    Returning to Hall of Everlasting Life, his own Cave Dwelling, Lu Changsheng circulated the Hundred Refined Body Technique, intending to remove the Black Dragon Pearl from his palm.

    After so many years, this Magical Treasure was on the verge of being scrapped.

    Now that his son Lu Ping’an had entered the basics of the Hundred Refined Body Technique, he thought of letting Lu Ping’an try to refine this almost scrapped Black Dragon Pearl into his body.

    “Hah!”

    Lu Changsheng circulated the technique, and the imprint of the Black Dragon Pearl in his left hand appeared, clearly visible.

    The flesh of his palm glowed with treasure light, dazzling and brilliant. His skin and flesh squirmed as the Black Dragon Pearl slowly emerged.

    This process used to be very slow and very painful.

    But now, with Lu Changsheng at the sixth level of the Hundred Refined Body Technique, it only took an hour to remove this pearl.

    “Phew!”

    Lu Changsheng let out a long breath, looking at the Black Dragon Pearl in his hand.

    At this point, not only had the black light of this Magical Treasure dimmed, but the miniature flood dragon inside had also dissipated, leaving only a mass of gray mist.

    What was once a middle-Tier Magical Treasure was now so damaged it was barely recognizable.

    Perhaps no one could tell that this was once a Magical Treasure.

    “That it could last long enough to be passed down is a kind of inheritance, I suppose.”

    Lu Changsheng looked at this Black Dragon Pearl and chuckled softly.

    Looking at the almost scrapped Magical Treasure embryo in his right hand, Lu Changsheng thought for a moment and turned his attention to the system space.

    “Extract!”

    His mind moved slightly, and he took out the Hundred Horse Phantom Lock from the system space.

    Instantly, a black chain as thick as an arm appeared, strung with a hundred faintly visible fierce horses.

    These hundred fierce horses each emitted thick yin energy and resentment, causing a chilling wind to blow through the Cave Dwelling, filled with an eerie cold.

    “As expected of a demonic Magical Treasure, it looks sinister.”

    “Refining this kind of Magical Treasure into my body won’t have any negative effects, right?”

    Lu Changsheng looked at the Hundred Horse Phantom Lock before him, stroking his chin.

    Now that the Nine-Treasure Jade Ruyi had been refined into his natal treasure bone, the Black Dragon Pearl removed, and the Magical Treasure embryo almost scrapped, he naturally needed to continue refining another Magical Treasure into his body to aid in cultivation.

    Although letting Lu Ping’an refine the Magical Treasure into his body would be more cost-effective,

    Lu Ping’an’s Hundred Refined Body Technique was still far from ready.

    Then, Lu Changsheng began to use his mind and spiritual power to refine the Hundred Horse Phantom Lock before him, to test the effects of refining this Magical Treasure into his body for his son.
