Chapter 282: To experience the effect of the Heaven and Earth Longevity Method, go to the White Jade Tower!

The summit of Biyun Peak.

Ling Zixiao was leading Xu Ruyin in setting up the ‘Divine Wood Grand Array’.

Sensing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the movements of the array on Lingcui Cliff, her expression turned slightly solemn.

She immediately stopped arranging the array in her hands and flew towards Lingcui Cliff to check the situation.

“This is, the Heavenly Longevity Method, it’s done?”

Ling Zixiao arrived at the back mountain of Lingcui Cliff and saw Lu Miaoyun and the Spiritual Bright Treasure Tree, one person and one tree, permeated with spiritual energy, as if they were one.

Although she had read the Heavenly Longevity Method, she didn’t know what the specific effects of refining it would be.

Moreover, this cultivation method refines different ‘Heavenly Spiritual Plants’ into natal spiritual roots, and the situation will also vary.

She immediately took out the Yin-Yang Induction Talisman and asked Lu Changsheng to come over and see what was happening.

Changsheng Hall, in the secluded cave.

“The Heavenly Longevity Method is done?”

Lu Changsheng was refining a spiritual tool embryo when he received a message from Ling Zixiao, and he immediately got up, walked out of the Sumeru Cave Heaven, and came to Lingcui Cliff.

He saw Lu Miaoyun sitting in a cross-legged position, breathing in the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

At this moment, she and the Spiritual Bright Treasure Tree had their auras intertwined, as if they were one, inseparable.

“Zixiao, gather spiritual energy.”

Lu Changsheng directly said to Ling Zixiao, asking her to gather the spiritual energy around Lingcui Cliff.

He also took out middle-grade spiritual stones from his storage bag, crushed them, and let the rich spiritual energy in the spiritual stones overflow.

He could see that Lu Miaoyun’s current state was that she had refined the Spiritual Bright Treasure Tree into her natal spiritual root.

However, because the grade and growth of this spiritual plant were relatively high, and Lu Miaoyun’s cultivation level was too low, she received a backlash of spiritual energy from the spiritual tree, resulting in a breakthrough in her cultivation.

“Okay.”

Ling Zixiao nodded, took out an array plate, pinched a magic seal, and mobilized the spiritual energy of heaven and earth on Lingcui Cliff to gather here.

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh——”

As the spiritual energy of heaven and earth entered her body, Lu Miaoyun’s cultivation level broke through the seventh level of Qi Refining, and her aura rose steadily.

After about half a day, her cultivation level broke through from the seventh level of Qi Refining to the eighth level of Qi Refining.

“Is Miaoyun going to directly break through to Foundation Establishment?”

Ling Zixiao looked at the situation in front of her and said with a light smile.

“Probably not, judging from the movements, she won’t be able to break through to Foundation Establishment.”

Lu Changsheng shook his head and said.

Although the movements in front of him were not small, compared to breaking through to Foundation Establishment, it was far from enough, not even in the same realm.

After another day, Lu Miaoyun’s cultivation level broke through from the eighth level of Qi Refining to the ninth level of Qi Refining.

After breaking through to the ninth level of Qi Refining, the spiritual energy and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth emanating from the Spiritual Bright Treasure Tree continued, but the movements were obviously getting smaller and smaller.

“Husband, Sister Ling.”

A day later, Lu Miaoyun opened her eyes, looked at Lu Changsheng and Ling Zixiao in front of her, and was full of joy.

Her appearance was much younger at this time, and her whole body had a bit more vigorous aura, giving people a vibrant feeling.

“Congratulations to my Yun’er for completing the ‘Heavenly Longevity Method’, the future path to immortality is promising.”

Lu Changsheng showed a smile and congratulated his wife.

In the past, it was Lu Miaoyun and others who congratulated her, but now it was rare to congratulate his wife.

“Congratulations, Miaoyun!”

Ling Zixiao also smiled and congratulated Lu Miaoyun.

Her beautiful eyes kept sizing up Lu Miaoyun’s situation.

When Lu Miaoge broke through to Foundation Establishment, her appearance and temperament underwent tremendous changes, as if she had been reborn.

Lu Miaoyun at this time was not far behind.

Not only was she much younger, but she was also like a spiritual and verdant treasure tree, making the surrounding air seem a bit fresher.

“Thank you, husband, thank you, Sister Ling, if it weren’t for husband and Sister Ling, how could I have completed this cultivation method.”

Lu Miaoyun said, looking at Lu Changsheng with tenderness in her eyes.

If it weren’t for Lu Changsheng, it would have been difficult for her to cultivate to the ninth level of Qi Refining in this lifetime.

But now, under Lu Changsheng’s arrangement, she cultivated the Heavenly Longevity Method, refined the Spiritual Bright Treasure Tree into her natal spiritual root, and her cultivation level directly broke through to the ninth level of Qi Refining.

Moreover, she could clearly feel that she and this Spiritual Bright Treasure Tree were one.

As the years passed and the seasons changed, the growth of the Spiritual Bright Treasure Tree would continuously bring the origin of plants and trees into her body, which was equivalent to her cultivating herself.

Now, Foundation Establishment was only a matter of time for her!

“Yun’er, after you finished cultivating this method, what changes do you feel?”

Lu Changsheng asked Lu Miaoyun.

The Heavenly Longevity Method can be said to be the only top-level cultivation method in the family that was cultivated from the outside, so he didn’t know much about it.

“I feel that I have formed a mysterious connection with the Spiritual Bright Treasure Tree, merging into one, and can slightly control the Spiritual Bright Treasure Tree.”

“However, once I am far away from the treasure tree, the connection between the two will gradually weaken and eventually break, leading to the failure of the cultivation method.”

“And the spiritual power in my body has also been completely transformed from the original Azure Wood Art into the wood power of the ‘Heavenly Longevity Method’.”

Lu Miaoyun opened her mouth and told her current situation.

She said that she has now completed the Heavenly Longevity Method, and her lifespan has been greatly increased.

However, because all of her spiritual power has been transformed into the wood power of the Heavenly Longevity Method, her spiritual power is much weaker than before, basically leaning towards health preservation.

It is also difficult to improve her cultivation realm with elixirs, and she can only rely on the growth of the Spiritual Bright Treasure Tree to slowly improve.

However, the benefit is that this spiritual power has the effect of preserving her appearance and beautifying her, warming her body and soul.

Even if her lifespan is old, her body will be full of vitality, and her state will not decline severely.

At the same time, she has a better understanding of the Spiritual Bright Treasure Tree, knows how to cultivate it, and allows the Spiritual Bright Treasure Tree to grow at the fastest speed.

And she can spend her origin to accelerate the Spiritual Bright Treasure Tree to condense ‘Spiritual Bright Essence’, without waiting for the thirty-year growth cycle.

“It’s good as long as there are no side effects.”

“As for the ‘Spiritual Bright Essence’, if Yun’er you have time, you can urge a little to see the effect.”

Lu Changsheng said with a smile.

The only thing he was worried about was the Heavenly Longevity Method, in addition to the above-mentioned problems, there were other side effects.

“Okay~”

Lu Miaoyun nodded lightly in response.

“Let’s go, in order to congratulate Yun’er you on completing the Heavenly Longevity Method, we should have a good celebration!”

Lu Changsheng stepped forward, took his wife’s hand, and said with a smile.

Then he returned to Biyun Peak and ordered a family banquet to be held to celebrate Lu Miaoyun.

Although the wives, concubines, children, and daughters in the family didn’t know what was going on, many people sensed the situation on Lingcui Cliff before.

Seeing the changes in Lu Miaoyun’s appearance and temperament, they all had guesses and congratulated her.

Lu Miaohuan and Qu Zhenzhen knew about the Heavenly Longevity Method.

Seeing the changes in Lu Miaoyun’s appearance and temperament, deep in their eyes, a bit of envy inevitably appeared.

Although they didn’t have too many ideas about pursuing Foundation Establishment, as women, they all had a love for beauty.

Moreover, the effects described in the Heavenly Longevity Method, automatic cultivation, it was impossible for them not to be moved.

This scene was keenly noticed by Lu Changsheng, and he sighed slightly in his heart.

Now, if the family wants to continue cultivating the Heavenly Longevity Method, not only must there be new Heavenly Spiritual Plants, but also must wait for the spiritual veins under Bishui Lake to advance to the second level, otherwise it will be a bit unaffordable.

“The companion spiritual plant nurtured in Sumeru, should it be able to directly rely on Sumeru to grow?”

Lu Changsheng thought in his heart.

However, to nurture a companion spiritual plant, it would consume a lot of Sumeru’s vitality, and he didn’t want to do that for the time being.

Late night.

After the deed!

“This…”

Lu Changsheng, holding Lu Miaoyun, whose skin was plump, fair, and full of sweat, had a look of surprise in his eyes.

He found that after he and Lu Miaoyun cultivated together, he seemed to be a bit more refreshed.

Although this feeling was so weak that it was difficult to detect, he and Lu Miaoyun had not cultivated together for the first time, so he was very sensitive.

This made him think of the effect of the Spiritual Bright Essence condensed by the Spiritual Bright Treasure Tree.

Its Spiritual Bright Essence can be wiped on the eyes to clear the eyes and benefit the magical powers of the spiritual eyes.

“Husband, what’s wrong?”

Lu Miaoyun nestled lazily in Lu Changsheng’s arms, her eyes were like silk, her cheeks were flushed, and she asked softly.

“Just now, I seem to have a bit of a refreshing effect…”

Lu Changsheng said softly.

Immediately, he pressed his delicate wife under him again, preparing to do it a few more times to confirm whether it was an illusion.

“Mmm~”

Along with soft moans, after several tosses, Lu Changsheng was able to determine that this was not an illusion.

After cultivating with Lu Miaoyun, there was indeed a faint refreshing effect.

However, this increase was negligible for him, and it was estimated that it would take years to see some effect.

Regarding this, Lu Changsheng didn’t care, and just regarded it as a bit of unexpected little fun.

Half a month later.

“Sister Miaoge, this is your Ruoshui Bottle, next you can nurture and carve it with your own magic power.”

On this day, Lu Miaoge came back and used the Taiyi True Water to nourish Ling Zixiao’s meridians and dantian.

Lu Changsheng took out a jade bottle that looked like mutton fat white jade.

It was the embryo of the Ruoshui Bottle.

“Thank you, husband~”

Lu Miaoge saw this, took the Ruoshui Bottle, and a look of joy appeared in her beautiful eyes.

Although this Ruoshui Bottle did not have any offensive means, it had the effects of controlling magic, breaking magic, protecting the body, and storing Taiyi True Water.

Taiyi True Water, as condensed by her, could not be stored in ordinary containers.

But with the Ruoshui Bottle, it could be stored and even refined.

This was also the reason she chose to refine the Ruoshui Bottle first, instead of the Taiyi Talisman.

“Hmm?”

Lu Changsheng looked at Lu Miaoge, whose figure was slender, face was exquisitely beautiful, dressed in white clothes that were whiter than snow, and had an otherworldly temperament, and stroked his chin.

“Changsheng, what’s wrong?”

Lu Miaoge was a little surprised to see Lu Changsheng suddenly sizing her up like this.

“Miaoge-jie, stay here and don’t move, wait for me.”

After Lu Changsheng finished speaking, he walked out of the Sumeru Space, leaving behind Lu Miaoge and Ling Zixiao, who looked at each other in confusion.

After a while, Lu Changsheng returned to the Changsheng Hall, holding a branch that looked like gold and jade in his hand.

The branch had emerald-green, vibrant leaves.

Under the surprised gazes of the two women, Lu Changsheng put the branch he had plucked from the Sumeru Tree King into Lu Miaoge’s Ruoshui Bottle, and then nodded in satisfaction.

“Changsheng, what are you doing?”

Lu Miaoge didn’t know what Lu Changsheng was doing by putting a branch in the Ruoshui Bottle.

“Miaoge-jie, this is a branch of Sumeru, which has the effect of calming the mind, concentrating the spirit, and washing the mind. It will be good for you to keep it by your side for a long time.”

“Moreover, you put the Taiyi True Water in the Ruoshui Bottle, which can just nourish this branch, which will help you.”

Lu Changsheng said with a smile on his face.

The reason why he thought of plucking a branch for Lu Miaoge was simply because he saw his wife in white, with a holy temperament, holding a jade bottle, and thought of a character from his previous life.

He felt that it would be more pleasing to the eye to put something in the bottle.

But the fact proved that the addition of such a branch made the jade bottle in Lu Miaoge’s hand indeed more sacred.

If there was anything missing, it would indeed be a cinnabar mole.

If a cinnabar mole was added to Lu Miaoge’s brow, coupled with her holy temperament that seemed to encompass everything, it would be even more stimulating.

“Okay ~”

Lu Miaoge didn’t think much about it, only thinking that Lu Changsheng was doing it for her own good, with a smile on her face and a bit of pampering in her voice.

But Ling Zixiao on the side saw a bit of strangeness, but she didn’t say anything.

After all, the addition of such a branch to embellish the Ruoshui Bottle added a bit of color, which was indeed much better-looking.

In the blink of an eye, another month passed.

In this month, one of Lu Changsheng’s concubines became pregnant, bringing the total number of his children to one hundred and seventy.

Thinking of his efficiency in having children in the past few years, Lu Changsheng sighed and prepared to go to Baiyulou.

In the past few years, the family was newly established, Ling Zixiao was seriously injured, and Xiao Xiyue was sitting in the family, so he was really embarrassed to go to Baiyulou.

In addition, the ordinary maids sold by Baiyulou all only had low-grade spiritual roots, which he already looked down upon.

If he wanted middle-grade or high-grade spiritual root maids, they were only available for members and at auctions.

And now, it happened to be the day of Baiyulou’s triennial auction.

So Lu Changsheng prepared to go and broaden his horizons.

See what the situation is at Baiyulou’s auction, and whether it can meet his needs.

Three days later, Lu Changsheng told Ling Zixiao and secretly left Bihushan and went to Jiulongfang City.

Considering his status as an ancestor of the family, Lu Changsheng slightly concealed his face and identity.

After arriving at Baiyulou, he learned that the auction list would not arrive until half a month later.

Moreover, the auction was not a public auction, but a private auction.

Because Baiyulou was too widely distributed.

This auction was not just at Jiulongfang City, but throughout the entire Jiang Kingdom’s cultivation world.

Therefore, Baiyulou had no way to hold such a large-scale auction and could only do it through private auctions.

Moreover, most cultivators were unwilling to show their faces at such auctions.

Lu Changsheng didn’t care about this and simply strolled around Jiulongfang City.

There were also many Bihushan industries in Jiulongfang City, but the business here could only be considered average and had not yet become popular.

In the process, Lu Changsheng saw his former friend Yu Maocheng’s ‘Yushan Pavilion’.

But because of his affairs with the Yu family, Yushan Pavilion had now been transferred, and Yu Maocheng and his wife Yu Ningrong had also left.

“Alas!”

Lu Changsheng sighed.

The couple had worked hard in Jiulongfang City for many years, and they were originally considered to have a foothold and lived a good life.

But because of his affairs with the Yu family, the Yu family was destroyed, and they finally chose to transfer the shop and leave Jiulongfang City, living incognito.

Originally, Yun Qianqian and Yu Ningrong had been corresponding, but after the Yu family colluded with the demonic path, the two also broke off their relationship and no longer corresponded.

Half a month later.

Lu Changsheng came to Baiyulou and looked at the auction list in front of him.

There were a total of one hundred and eight maids for auction, each with their own appearance, situation, and auction reserve price.

“Number one, twenty-seven years old, eighth level of Qi Refining, third-grade spiritual root, starting price of ten high-grade spiritual stones.”

“Number two, thirty-two years old, ninth level of Qi Refining, third-grade spiritual root, starting price of ten high-grade spiritual stones.”

“Number three, forty-one years old, ninth level of Qi Refining… starting price of ten high-grade spiritual stones.”

“As expected of Baiyulou, this is quite the spectacle, there are actually three high-grade spiritual roots.”

Lu Changsheng looked at the general information on the auction list and said with a tsk.

Through their names, he could quickly check their appearance.

He simply looked at the three of them. Although their appearances were not breathtaking, they were all of excellent quality.

After all, most people would not be too ugly after cultivating immortality.

In addition, these had all been trained by Baiyulou.

Even if their original appearance was average, they would be made to practice beauty and skin-nourishing techniques.

Although he was very tempted by this, he really had no intention of bidding.

Too expensive!

The starting price was ten high-grade spiritual stones, which was one hundred thousand low-grade spiritual stones!

This price had already far exceeded his current consumption!

Even though selling talismans and refining pills was very profitable, he still had limited financial resources in the face of this.

Moreover, this was just the starting price.

Compared to high-grade spiritual roots, the price of fourth-grade spiritual roots was immediately one level cheaper.

The cheapest only started at thirty thousand spiritual stones!

The most expensive starting price was also at fifty thousand spiritual stones, which was twice as cheap as third-grade spiritual roots!

Then, fifth-grade spiritual roots were twice as cheap again, with a starting price of ten to twenty thousand.

The starting price of sixth-grade spiritual roots was five thousand to ten thousand.

There were also many low-grade spiritual root maids inside.

The low-grade spiritual roots that could enter here were all top choices in terms of appearance and figure, or had outstanding talents in the arts.

Therefore, even the cheapest ninth-grade spiritual root would cost one thousand spiritual stones to start.

After Lu Changsheng had roughly finished reading, he asked the steward how much the transaction price was usually higher than the starting price in previous years.

The other party told him that the competition for low-grade spiritual roots was not very fierce.

Basically, if it was more than two percent above the reserve price, he would most likely get it.

The competition for the several high-grade spiritual roots was much more intense.

Because this was the gimmick of their Baiyulou’s auction every time, and many people competed.

As for why it was so fierce, this steward Xia did not elaborate.

But Lu Changsheng roughly knew in his heart.

There were many uses for such high-grade spiritual root geniuses.

In addition to the most common cauldron and breeding, there were also some more brutal methods.

For example, refining people into corpses, or cultivating them, and then using certain demonic methods to seize their spiritual roots, or even cultivating them to the Foundation Establishment stage and seizing their Dao Foundation.

After all, with a high-grade spiritual root, as long as one was willing to spend time and cultivate them a little, they would most likely be able to establish a foundation!

“Alas, save one if you can.”

Lu Changsheng sighed.

These women’s eyes were all dull, and he knew what they had experienced. Most of them were miserable people.

Even though he had been in the cultivation world for so many years, his soft-hearted problem had not changed.

After calculating the spiritual stones currently available on his body, Lu Changsheng finally budgeted fifty thousand spiritual stones for himself.

Because if there were more, he would have to sell a little too many spiritual stones and pills.

Immediately, Lu Changsheng bid for three fifth-grade spiritual roots and one sixth-grade spiritual root.

The prices were all relatively low, but the premium was about 40%.

To ensure that he had a high probability of getting them, it would cost exactly fifty thousand spiritual stones.

This auction currently required paying a deposit first, and a notification would be given one month after the private auction ended.

Hearing this, Lu Changsheng did not wait in Jiulongfang City. After paying the deposit, he returned to Bihushan.

Because this year was also the year of the Lu family’s annual meeting.

And this year, he also planned to set the position of the head of the family at the meeting and send some of his children out to manage the business.
