Chapter 280: Improving family foundation and returning to the top!
“Red Lotus, can I put these Dao soldiers, which are aquatic creatures, into the Ancient Beast Taming Talisman?”
Lu Changsheng pointed at the Black Water Dragon Fish and Black Water Dragon Snake in the fish farm and said.
“Young Master, no problem.”
Red Lotus transmitted her voice to Lu Changsheng through her divine sense.
Then, the ancient talisman flew out, filled with colorful light, and took all twenty-one Black Water Dragon Fish and eighteen Black Water Dragon Snake in the fish farm into it.
“Young Master, currently, the ancient talisman space can roughly increase the growth speed of Dao soldiers by 30%. If the energy is sufficient and they are fully cultivated, it can be increased to double.”
Red Lotus’s voice continued to sound.
“Thirty percent, double.”
Lu Changsheng nodded.
This speed sounds ordinary, but it is actually very exaggerated.
These demon beasts, after being refined into Dao soldiers, have cultivation methods, and their growth speed is already faster than ordinary demon beasts.
On this basis, to still have this growth speed increase is quite exaggerated.
In other words, with full cultivation, it is estimated that in thirty to forty years, many Dao soldiers can be promoted to the second level.
By then, Bai Ling will have already broken through the Foundation Establishment stage and will be leading these Dao soldiers, and her combat power will probably be able to fight against Core Formation cultivators!
However, thinking of Bai Ling’s personality, Lu Changsheng felt that at least a few of his children must be able to cultivate the Black Dragon Codex, otherwise these Dao soldiers would be a bit of a waste.
“Red Lotus, besides spirit stones, what other natural treasures do you need?”
Lu Changsheng took back the ancient talisman and asked.
He didn’t care whether Red Lotus wanted to use this method to restore her divine soul and strength.
As long as she could raise his spirit beasts and Dao soldiers well, and the spirit stones she asked for weren’t too excessive, everything would be fine.
After all, as long as she was within the range of Mount Azure Lake and the Sumeru Tree King, she shouldn’t be able to play any tricks.
“Young Master, in terms of natural treasures, mainly demon cores and spiritual herbs.”
Red Lotus said, indicating that the Ancient Beast Taming Talisman could absorb demon cores and spiritual herbs, turning them into some kind of spiritual liquid, which would help the growth of demon beasts.
“Demon cores, spiritual herbs, good.”
Lu Changsheng nodded and turned into a ray of light, returning to Azure Cloud Peak and the alchemy room.
Seeing his daughter, who was still sound asleep on the long chair, a touch of tenderness appeared in his eyes.
Then, from two storage bags, he took out ten thousand spirit stones, several demon cores, and a pile of spiritual herbs.
He hadn’t dealt with the spoils he had obtained from the six rogue cultivators who had caused trouble in the Red Leaf Valley market, turning them into spirit stones.
Because dealing with them was not only troublesome, but also meant a lot of depreciation.
He was not short of money now, and he had his family to slowly digest them, or slowly sell them through other channels.
“Keep these spirit stones and spiritual herbs for now, and tell me when you need them.”
Lu Changsheng said to Red Lotus.
“Yes, Young Master.”
Red Lotus responded softly.
Looking at the pill furnace in the center of the alchemy room, she felt a little surprised and suspicious.
She didn’t expect that Lu Changsheng actually knew how to make pills.
Before, when she chatted with Xu Ruyin, she had never heard that Lu Changsheng knew the art of alchemy.
Then, she saw Lu Changsheng’s gentle and careful movements, and the affectionate look on his face as he held Lu Wangshu in his arms.
“It is rumored that the ‘Dragon Emperor Dao Body’ not only makes it easiest to conceive children, but also makes it easy for the offspring to be born with extraordinary talent.”
Red Lotus thought of the rumors about the Dragon Emperor Dao Body, and her heart stirred.
She had seen Lu Wangshu before when she was with Xu Ruyin.
But at that time, she had only sensed her from a distance and had not looked at her closely.
Now, seeing Lu Changsheng doting on this daughter so much, she couldn’t help but carefully observe her.
“This, this little girl, should possess some kind of hidden spiritual body!”
After observing for a long time, Red Lotus was shocked in her heart and saw something wrong with Lu Wangshu.
Although she couldn’t tell what kind of spiritual body Lu Wangshu had, she roughly saw that she should possess some kind of spiritual body!
This made her extremely surprised.
Spiritual bodies are rare, one in ten thousand.
And through chatting with Xu Ruyin, she knew that Lu Changsheng’s wives and concubines were not very talented.
In this situation, a random daughter actually possessed a rare and uncommon spiritual body.
“Is this the Dragon Emperor Dao Body? It’s simply terrifying…”
Red Lotus murmured in her heart, no longer doubting the matter of Lu Changsheng’s Dragon Emperor Dao Body.
But she couldn’t help but be curious about how many of Lu Changsheng’s more than one hundred children were extraordinarily talented.
Inside the alchemy room, Lu Changsheng held his daughter Lu Wangshu in one hand and drew talismans with the other.
Red Lotus was once again a little surprised to see Lu Changsheng’s smooth and flowing talisman-making skills.
Because she could clearly see that Lu Changsheng’s talisman-making skills were almost close to the Dao, and he was extremely proficient.
Even though her talisman-making skill was at the third level, she didn’t dare to say that she could draw second-level talismans as smoothly as Lu Changsheng.
“What kind of existence was he in his previous life? His spiritual root talent is only low-grade, but his skill talent is so terrifying…”
Red Lotus couldn’t help but be surprised in her heart.
As a Nascent Soul True Monarch, she was usually rarely moved by anything.
But today, Lu Changsheng’s various actions made her constantly surprised and moved.
She only felt that the Lu Changsheng in front of her was like a cloud of fog, the more she looked at him, the more unfathomable he became, making her, a Nascent Soul True Monarch, unable to see through him.
Time passed little by little, and the sky turned fish-belly white.
“Mmm~”
Lu Wangshu woke up, her eyes drowsy, and stretched lazily.
Looking at Lu Changsheng, who was still holding her, she immediately smiled and said, “Daddy, good morning!”
“Hehe, you’re awake.”
Lu Changsheng looked at his daughter, and his mood couldn’t help but improve. He gently pinched her fleshy, white and tender cheeks.
“Eh? Daddy, alchemy? Alchemy? Why didn’t you wake me up!”
Lu Wangshu looked around, thought of the elixir, and thought that Lu Changsheng had already finished refining it. She pouted and said aggrievedly.
“The elixir is not ready yet. Look, it will be ready soon.”
Lu Changsheng looked at his daughter like this, and a doting smile appeared on his face.
Then, he put her down, cast a series of spells towards the pill furnace, and restarted the sealed pill furnace.
As the furnace fire burned again, the pill furnace’s spiritual energy surged, and Lu Changsheng lightly shouted, “Open!”
“Boom!”
Rolling heat waves spread and rolled from the pill furnace, and then a burst of spiritual light flew out and landed in Lu Changsheng’s hand.
“Wow, Daddy, you’re so amazing!”
“I want to see, I want to see!”
Lu Wangshu, who was next to him, immediately clapped her hands happily when she saw this, wanting to see the elixir in Lu Changsheng’s hand.
Lu Changsheng smiled slightly, squatted down, and handed a crystal-clear and full Nourishing Spirit Pill in his hand to his daughter to see.
“It smells so good, Daddy, can I eat one?”
Lu Wangshu looked at the elixir and couldn’t help but bite a finger.
“?”
Lu Changsheng glanced at his daughter.
He immediately said, “This sugar pill is called ‘Nourishing Spirit Pill’. We can’t eat it. It’s for Turtle to eat.”
“If you want to eat, you can only eat this candy bean.”
As he spoke, Lu Changsheng took out a Foundation Nurturing Pill and fed it to his daughter.
But Lu Wangshu kept looking at the Nourishing Spirit Pill in his hand, wanting to taste one.
In the end, Lu Changsheng carried his daughter out of the alchemy room, fed a ‘Nourishing Spirit Pill’ to the Cold Emerald Mysterious Turtle, and told her that this candy bean was really not for her to eat. Only then did Lu Wangshu give up the idea of tasting it.
Looking at the Cold Emerald Mysterious Turtle in front of him, Lu Changsheng wondered if he should put it in the Ancient Beast Taming Talisman to cultivate.
But thinking that his daughter still had to feed it and play with it every day, he decided to leave it for now.
He planned to go to Ruyi County later to bring back the Nine Nether Mastiff and put it in the Ancient Beast Taming Talisman to cultivate.
Otherwise, after more than twenty years, the Nine Nether Mastiff was still in the late stage of the first level. He didn’t know how long it would take to break through to the second level.
“Red Lotus, in your current state, can you still make pills or cast spells?”
After Lu Changsheng handed his daughter to Qu Zhenzhen, he asked Red Lotus.
If Red Lotus could make pills, refine weapons, set up formations, and make talismans in her current state, then it would be of great help to him and the entire Azure Lake Mountain.
“Young Master, in my current state, my divine soul is weak, and I can’t leave the Ancient Beast Taming Talisman for a long time, so I can only refine some simple pills.”
“If the Young Master’s needs are not high, I can do some things in terms of alchemy, weapon refining, talisman making, and formation setting.”
Red Lotus said, saying so.
“Okay, I will give you the cultivation method of the Dao soldiers later. I will trouble you in this regard in the future.”
Lu Changsheng said upon hearing this, intending to hand over the cultivation of the Black Water Flood Dragon Dao soldiers to Red Lotus.
“Yes, Young Master.”
Red Lotus responded.
Returning to the Sumeru Cave Heaven.
Lu Changsheng looked at Xu Ruyin, who was still imprisoned in the air, with a delicate and cold face, crystal clear and smooth hair, and snow-white and radiant skin, wearing only a fiery red gold-threaded phoenix embroidered underwear.
A playful look appeared on his face and said, “Miss Xu, have you thought about it?”
Xu Ruyin trembled when she heard this, and after a while, she whispered, “I, I have thought about it.”
“Thought about what?”
Lu Changsheng raised his eyebrows and said.
“Sigh.”
Red Lotus in the Ancient Beast Taming Talisman sighed quietly.
Knowing that this level depended on Xu Ruyin herself.
If she could get through it, she could turn the predicament into an opportunity.
If she couldn’t get through it, then she couldn’t help much.
“I am willing to be a slave and servant to Grandmaster Lu.”
Xu Ruyin gritted her teeth and said with difficulty.
The time that Lu Changsheng took Red Lotus away just now could be described as a year for her, and her heart was constantly fighting.
She knew that Lu Changsheng and Senior Red Lotus were right.
She was originally a prisoner.
It was impossible to expect to leave here purely and cleanly.
He wanted her, it was readily available.
What was the point of her struggling?
Therefore, she only hoped that the other party could keep his promise, which could be considered a blessing in misfortune.
“Sumeru.”
Lu Changsheng chuckled as he watched Xu Ruyin lower her proud head.
Instantly, the restrained Xu Ruyin fell from the sky, her pair of snow-white and slender legs slightly weak, her footsteps somewhat unsteady as she landed in front of Lu Changsheng, causing her chest to tremble.
The newest novels are first published on 6_9_shu_ba!
“It truly evokes pity, ah. I remember when we were at the Zheng family, Miss Xu still had a cold and aloof demeanor when Lu met her.”
Lu Changsheng stood in front of Xu Ruyin, their bodies touching very closely, almost touching her delicate nose.
He reached out and gently stroked her delicate head, twirling a few strands of fiery red, crystalline hair in his hand, saying, “Turning the originally high and mighty pearl of the Xu family into a docile and obedient maidservant, to Lu, indeed holds a unique allure.”
“…”
Hearing these words, Xu Ruyin felt a sharp pain in her heart.
Her proud self-esteem seemed to be trampled upon by Lu Changsheng.
Once, she was the esteemed pearl of the Xu family.
Whether within the family or outside, everyone treated her with courtesy, let alone touching her like this.
At this moment, she was being casually toyed with by Lu Changsheng.
She wanted to slap Lu Changsheng’s hand away and reprimand him.
But she knew that Lu Changsheng was doing this on purpose, to make her submit obediently, so she could only endure it.
“Miss Xu, do you know the attitude a maidservant should have?”
Lu Changsheng looked at Xu Ruyin, who had a tall and graceful figure, disheveled hair, and a strong and unyielding gaze, raised her delicate chin, and said playfully.
In his heart, he couldn’t help but sigh. Indeed, dragging a high and mighty fairy into hell and playing with her at will was a dark desire in every man’s heart.
Although the Xu Ruyin in front of him couldn’t be considered a high and mighty, untouchable fairy.
As the pearl of the Xu family, she could still be considered of noble status!
Especially when they first met, she left a good impression.
So, at this moment, standing in front of him with a stubborn and humiliated expression, allowing him to play with her, was indeed a different kind of pleasure.
However, he knew that the Xu Ruyin in front of him still needed to be properly trained.
“…”
In Xu Ruyin’s stubborn and beautiful eyes, confusion and helplessness emerged.
As the young lady of the family, how could she know what the attitude of a maidservant should be?
But thinking of the attitude of the maidservants serving her at home, she clenched her slender, jade-like hands tightly, biting her lip.
Finally, her body trembling, she knelt down in front of Lu Changsheng, bowing down: “Ruyin… greets Young Master.”
“Hm!?”
Lu Changsheng was somewhat surprised.
He didn’t expect Xu Ruyin to adapt so quickly.
He stroked his chin and chuckled: “Take off your clothes.”
Xu Ruyin didn’t say anything, her soft and fair jade arms raised, somewhat trembling as she untied her undergarment.
As the undergarment slipped to the ground, hanging on her beautiful feet, her naked and graceful jade body was completely revealed.
“Tsk tsk tsk, this adaptability, this change in mentality, is indeed extraordinary.”
“But is this place also fiery red…”
Lu Changsheng sized up the alluring Xu Ruyin in front of him, clicking his tongue in his heart.
However, even though Xu Ruyin seemed to have submitted, kneeling in front of him, there was still a hint of high and mighty, inviolable awe between her eyebrows.
She was completely incomparable to the maids in the White Jade Tower who had been trained and had dim eyes.
“However, it seems even more interesting to slowly train this kind of person who still has light in their eyes.”
Lu Changsheng said, stroking his chin.
Someone like Xu Ruyin, although she couldn’t actively serve others with charm, and was even clumsy and unskilled when serving.
But if she was completely subdued under his training, it seemed that there would indeed be a different kind of fun and sense of accomplishment.
“Alright, tidy yourself up and stand aside. If there’s anything, I’ll call for you.”
Lu Changsheng looked at the alluring jade body in front of him, feeling a little hot in his heart, and said to Xu Ruyin.
He didn’t directly pluck the tempting fruit in front of him.
After all, this kind of thing needs to be done slowly to be interesting.
Moreover, he didn’t want Xu Ruyin to change so obviously all at once.
After speaking, he returned the Ancient Beast Control Talisman in his hand to Xu Ruyin.
He didn’t want to do too much at once, but also to give Honglian some face.
The Ancient Beast Control Talisman returned to Xu Ruyin’s sea of consciousness between her eyebrows.
Honglian didn’t say anything, knowing that at this time, Xu Ruyin needed to be left alone.
Xu Ruyin herself didn’t say anything, her expression wooden.
She knew that from the moment she stopped Lu Changsheng, she could only obey and cooperate.
In fact, deep down, she didn’t have the courage to resist Lu Changsheng.
After all, Senior Honglian had already submitted to Lu Changsheng, so resisting would only be making herself suffer.
“Ugh~ My lord…”
Inside the bedroom of the main hall, Ling Zixiao was suddenly embraced by Lu Changsheng, letting out a soft moan.
Three days later, Lu Changsheng returned to Ruyi County to bring the Nine Nether Mastiff back to Azure Lake Mountain.
“Another Heavenly-Grade bloodline demon beast!”
When Honglian saw Lu Changsheng bring back a Heavenly-Grade bloodline demon beast, she was shocked.
Although to her, a Nascent Soul True Monarch, Heavenly-Grade demon beasts weren’t that rare, but they weren’t exactly common either.
Xu Ruyin also saw the Nine Nether Mastiff.
This made her feel shocked and at the same time, she had more faith in Lu Changsheng’s words.
After all, Lu Changsheng had already revealed three Heavenly-Grade bloodline demon beasts and one True Spirit-level demon beast.
Who knew if there were any other Heavenly-Grade demon beasts.
As long as she obediently listened and performed well, giving her one didn’t seem like a big deal.
Afterward, Lu Changsheng briefly explained Honglian’s situation to Lu Miaoyun.
He said that she could directly ask Honglian for guidance on her children’s cultivation.
On the first day of each month, she would bring the Ancient Beast Control Talisman to give her children cultivation guidance and explanations.
At the same time, Lu Changsheng gave Honglian the method of cultivating the Black Water Flood Dragon Dao Soldiers, except for all the techniques of the system.
After all, if you want Honglian to guide your cultivation, you must give her the techniques.
Faced with this situation, Honglian immediately revealed the inheritance of her Vermilion Bird Palace.
Among them were two Orthodox-Grade techniques, seven Auxiliary-Grade techniques, more than ten Exquisite-Grade techniques, and five Tier-3 skill inheritances.
It can be said that through this wave of Honglian, Lu Changsheng’s family’s foundation in techniques directly became the number one in Jiang Country!
“Wouldn’t this be too bad?”
Lu Changsheng said somewhat embarrassed when he saw Honglian reveal so many inheritances.
“Honglian is already Young Master’s person, so these technique inheritances naturally belong to Young Master.”
Honglian said with a charming smile.
“It’s hardest to bear the kindness of a beauty.”
Lu Changsheng didn’t know what to say after being dealt with by Honglian’s wave of operations.
After all, he promised to help her restore her body and return to her peak.
But now he hadn’t done anything yet, and Honglian had already begun to cultivate demon beast Dao Soldiers for him and teach his children.
And she had contributed so many technique inheritances at once, which really made him feel a little embarrassed.
“Honglian, you only have your soul left now. If you want to restore your body and return to your peak, only the ‘Soul Fusion Return Life Pill’ should be enough, right?”
Lu Changsheng asked Honglian.
“Young Master, with the Soul Fusion Return Life Pill, as long as there is a body, I can fuse my soul and body and be resurrected.”
“But in this state, I have almost no hope of returning to my peak. If I want to return to my peak, I must have a good body that can fit and accommodate my soul!”
“Moreover, my current soul is weak and can only rely on the Ancient Beast Control Talisman to recuperate. If I want to return to my peak and perfectly fuse with my body, my soul must also be restored to its peak.”
Honglian said, her voice somewhat bitter.
With the ‘Soul Fusion Return Life Pill’, resurrection was very simple for her.
The difficulty was how to return to her peak!
If she casually found a body and took the Soul Fusion Return Life Pill, not to mention returning to her peak, she was afraid that she would not even be able to return to the Nascent Soul stage.
“A good body? Restore the soul?”
Lu Changsheng raised his eyebrows when he heard this and said, “Is there any specific saying about this good body?”
“Young Master, for example, the bones of a Nascent Soul cultivator, the spiritual objects of heaven and earth that can refine an external avatar, or the fleshly body shaped by certain heavenly materials and earthly treasures.”
Honglian knew that Lu Changsheng didn’t understand these things and explained.
“The bones of a Nascent Soul cultivator, the spiritual objects of heaven and earth that refine an external avatar, the fleshly body shaped by heavenly materials and earthly treasures.”
Lu Changsheng’s mouth twitched when he heard this.
He felt that except for relying on the system to draw, he currently had no way to obtain these items.
He said, “Okay, I will pay more attention to this aspect for you.”
Although even if he had these treasures now and could resurrect Honglian, he would not resurrect her immediately.
But since people have expressed their intentions in this way, he naturally couldn’t be lacking in words.
“Thank you, Young Master.”
Honglian’s voice was light and melodious.
In addition to teaching the children, Lu Changsheng saw that Ling Zixiao was still setting up the ‘Divine Wood Great Array’ alone, so he immediately asked Honglian to assist Ling Zixiao in setting up the array, and the two usually exchanged array techniques.
After all, as a Tier-3 Array Master, some guidance from Honglian would also benefit Ling Zixiao greatly.
