Chapter 366: Long Yin awakens and becomes Hong Lian’s apprentice!

Biyun Peak, Alchemy Hall.

Nine dragon heads spewed raging flames, with a bronze cauldron set upon them.

Spiritual liquid boiled in the cauldron, and Lu Changsheng tossed in various precious, rare, and expensive Spirit Medicines, Spirit Fruits, Yao Beast cores, Yao Beast skeletons, and other items.

He was preparing a medicinal bath for his son, Lu Lingxiao, and daughter, Lu Linghe.

Ever since he learned about this medicinal bath method from Honglian, he had been giving medicinal bath baptisms to some of his talented children in Lu.

However, the previous medicinal baths, except for Lu Wangshu and Lu Xingchen, were all ordinary baptisms.

The Spirit Medicines and Spirit Stones consumed were less than a fraction of what was being used now.

On one hand, it was indeed because these two children had exceptional talent and needed to win at the starting line.

On the other hand, it was also due to the relationship with Ling Zixiao.

After all, for talented children, and children of his Dao Companion, he would spend more time with them normally and naturally show some favoritism.

As time passed, the spiritual liquid in the cauldron turned a thick, turbid black.

Subsequently, Lu Changsheng opened several porcelain bottles and poured their contents one by one into the large cauldron.

“Om!”

At this moment, the Ancient Beast Taming Talisman glowed with flowing light, and a faint figure with an exquisite face, slender build, sacred nobility, and unparalleled grace appeared.

She cast streaks of spell techniques towards the bronze cauldron.

“Buzz buzz buzz—”

The large cauldron immediately hummed and vibrated, the liquid inside boiling and roaring, splashing up with crystal clear radiance, making the illusory figures of the Nine Nether Mastiff, Sky Demon Phoenix, Devour Iron Beast, and Xumi Tree King appear faintly.

The originally dark, viscous liquid gradually turned a light golden color, and a rich fragrance permeated the air.

“Young Master, the precious medicine has been refined. You may enter the cauldron.”

Honglian’s voice was soft and pleasant to the ear.

“Mm.”

Lu Changsheng nodded, looked at his son, who was pursing his lips and had bright eyes, and called out, “Xiao’er.”

“Father, I am ready!”

Lu Lingxiao nodded and said.

He was nine years old this year, but he was as tall as an ordinary ten-year-old child.

Dressed in a green robe, his tender and handsome face carried a hint of heroic spirit.

Upon hearing Lu Changsheng’s words, he immediately leaped directly into the boiling bronze cauldron.

He knew that once he completed the medicinal bath baptism, he could begin Cultivating Immortality.

“Hiss!”

Lu Lingxiao entered the large cauldron, instantly feeling his whole body scalding hot, his skin turning red, and he let out a muffled groan.

However, although this medicinal bath was scalding hot, it would not burn a person.

Instead, it transformed into a surging medicinal power that cleansed the flesh, limbs, Meridians, and Dantian.

“Father, will big brother be cooked?”

Lu Linghe, wearing a small lotus-patterned top and with two buns in her hair, looked at the boiling bronze cauldron in front of her, biting her finger, and asked somewhat fearfully.

“Of course he won’t be cooked. It’s just like taking a bath. Xiao He will grow up quickly after the bath.”

“And the medicinal liquid inside is very delicious.”

Lu Changsheng smiled and said upon hearing his daughter’s words.

As young children, the siblings could be said to have grown up consuming various Heaven And Earth Treasures, treating Medicinal Pills that strengthened their foundation as candy.

These Medicinal Pills and Heaven And Earth Treasures might not be fully absorbed or consumed.

However, this medicinal bath baptism could not only help them refine all the medicinal power within their bodies but also elevate their talent to another level.

After the medicinal bath, the two could begin to Cultivate directly.

They would not need to wait until they were twelve years old, like most children, when their Meridians and Dantian could withstand Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, before they could Cultivate.

“Xiao He, it’s alright.”

Ling Zixiao put her arm around her daughter’s shoulder and said softly.

She knew how much Lu Changsheng had spent on this cauldron of medicinal bath.

Not only did it consume Heaven and Earth Spiritual Materials worth nearly 100,000 Spirit Stones.

It also extracted essence blood from the Nine Nether Mastiff, Sky Demon Phoenix, Cold Jade Mysterious Turtle, Devour Iron Beast, Xumi Tree King, Nether Prison Demon Flower, and others, all at once.

“Big brother, are you cooked?”

Lu Linghe expressed disbelief and shouted loudly towards her brother in the large cauldron.

“No…”

Lu Lingxiao was silent for a moment before gritting his teeth and uttering two words.

“Father, Mother, big brother seems to be getting cooked.”

Lu Linghe immediately looked up and said.

Ling Zixiao saw her daughter’s dawdling appearance, and with Honglian still waiting beside them, she gritted her teeth, picked her up, and with a ‘plop’, threw her into the large cauldron.

“Ah, Father, Mother, it’s so hot, so hot!”

Unlike Lu Lingxiao who endured silently, Lu Linghe immediately cried out loudly in discomfort.

“Be good, Xiao He. After you finish soaking, you’ll grow up quickly.”

Lu Changsheng immediately spoke to comfort her.

“Om!”

Honglian cast streaks of spell techniques into the bronze cauldron again, causing the medicinal liquid to continuously boil and radiate a shimmering glow.

“Young Master, it is ready.”

After she finished speaking, her figure returned to the Ancient Beast Taming Talisman.

Without Xu Ruyin, she could not leave the Ancient Beast Taming Talisman for extended periods, and performing such spell techniques consumed a lot of her energy.

“Honglian, you’ve worked hard.”

Lu Changsheng nodded and said, gripping the Ancient Beast Taming Talisman in his palm.

“Father lied, this medicinal liquid isn’t delicious at all, it’s so bitter!”

After a while, Lu Linghe’s small face was flushed red, as if she had been drinking, and she complained pitifully to Lu Changsheng.

“…”

Lu Changsheng was silent for a moment, then a bottle of Foundation-Strengthening Pills appeared in his hand. He poured out two and called out to his daughter in the large cauldron, “Xiao He, open your mouth.”

“Biu!”

After Lu Linghe ate the Foundation-Strengthening Pills, she immediately shouted loudly, “Father, I want more.”

Ling Zixiao saw her Lang Jun feeding their daughter snacks like this, and for a moment, she wanted to say something but didn’t know what to say, only sighing with her hand on her forehead.

Just like that, time passed little by little. The medicinal bath roared and boiled, with radiant light surging, cleansing the marrow and transforming the bones for the siblings.

Lu Lingxiao had been gritting his teeth, enduring the medicinal bath baptism.

Lu Wangshu had told him before that the reason she was so powerful was because during her medicinal bath baptism back then, she remained conscious throughout the entire process of bone transformation and rebirth.

And he was determined to surpass this older sister and suppress her, so he naturally refused to be weaker than her.

Lu Linghe, on the other hand, had fallen asleep at some point.

“Om—”

Two days later, a scorching and domineering aura suddenly emanated from Lu Lingxiao’s body.

“This is, Dragon’s Roar Body!?”

Ling Zixiao sensed this familiar aura, and suddenly looked at her son, her face filled with surprise and bewilderment.

She hadn’t expected her son to possess the Dragon’s Roar Body, just like her!

This made her overjoyed and incredibly surprised!

Her son had a first-grade Spiritual Root, and with her and Lu Changsheng’s utmost cultivation, it could be said that he had hope of Core Formation in the future!

Now seeing that her son had the Dragon’s Roar Body, she felt that it was no longer just a hope for Core Formation.

Instead, he would definitely achieve Core Formation, and even had hopes of becoming a Nascent Soul True Lord!

“Hmm? The Dragon’s Roar Body awakened?”

Lu Changsheng paused, also somewhat surprised.

He hadn’t expected his son’s Dragon’s Roar Body to awaken under the medicinal bath baptism.

One must know that the Dragon’s Roar Body is a recessive Physique, which only gradually awakens with continuous growth and Cultivation.

His son was only nine years old now and hadn’t even started Cultivating, so how did the Dragon’s Roar Body awaken?

However, in the next moment, Lu Changsheng realized that it should be because his son’s Dragon’s Roar Body was incomplete, a defective Dragon’s Roar Body, which was why it was different from normal circumstances.

“Not good!”

Lu Changsheng immediately looked at his unconscious daughter, Lu Linghe, in the bronze cauldron. With a large hand of magical power, he lifted his daughter out.

His son’s early Awakening of the Dragon’s Roar Body was naturally a good thing.

But if his daughter’s Dragon’s Roar Body awakened early, it would not be a good thing.

The Dragon’s Roar Body is only suitable for males!

If a female possessed the Dragon’s Roar Body, it would be a disaster, not a blessing!

His Yin Yang Creation Scripture had not yet been fully cultivated, so he could not completely resolve the Dragon’s Roar Body!

“Om!”

However, at this moment, a faint, scorching aura was already emanating from Lu Linghe’s body.

“How… how could this be!?”

Ling Zixiao was still puzzled by Lu Changsheng’s actions, not knowing why he had taken their daughter out of the medicinal bath.

Now, sensing the familiar aura within her daughter’s body, her surprised expression suddenly changed.

Her son having the Dragon’s Roar Body naturally made her happy and surprised.

But if her daughter had the Dragon’s Roar Body, she couldn’t be happy.

She herself had the Dragon’s Roar Body and knew how much trouble this Physique had brought her.

When she was breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, she nearly died due to the eruption of her Dragon’s Roar Body.

If not for meeting Lu Changsheng, she would have long since withered and died from the Yang Qi burning her Meridians and Dantian due to the Dragon’s Roar Body.

Even now, she still relied on Lu Changsheng to sort out the Dragon’s Roar Yang Qi in her body before she could slowly Cultivate.

“Dragon’s Roar Body…”

In the Ancient Beast Taming Talisman, Honglian couldn’t help but be surprised when she saw the situation of these siblings.

Although she had been in the Ancient Beast Taming Talisman for a long time.

But over the years, as she taught Lu Changsheng’s children, she had observed their situations.

She could clearly perceive that the talent of the Lu family’s Disciples was clearly improving!

Moreover, there was a Blood Talisman Spirit Body early on.

Before, a Geng Metal Body returned.

Now, two Dragon’s Roar Bodies suddenly appeared.

Although the situation of these two Dragon’s Roar Bodies was not right, it was still quite astonishing.

“Dragon Emperor Dao Body, is this the legendary Dragon Emperor Dao Body? It’s simply terrifying…”

Honglian murmured to herself, her heart filled with surprise and emotion.

For a moment, she couldn’t help but anticipate how exceptionally talented the descendants born after Lu Changsheng reached Core Formation, Nascent Soul, and Soul Transformation would be.

Because as far as she knew, the higher the Cultivation Realm of the Dragon Emperor Dao Body, the more astonishing the talent of the descendants born would be.

“However, the Dragon Emperor Dao Body should at least be at the Golden Core Realm to increase the chances of children possessing a Physique, right?”

“Young Master is only at the Foundation Establishment Stage now. Even if he possesses the Dragon Emperor Dao Body, at most it would be easier for him to have children with Spiritual Root talent than other Cultivators, but it shouldn’t involve Physiques…”

Honglian felt confused.

However, thinking about how the mysteries surrounding Lu Changsheng had not diminished but had become increasingly enigmatic over the years, she did not measure him by common sense.

After all, the Dragon Emperor Dao Body was just her speculation.

Lu Changsheng’s situation, his Physique, might be similar to the Dragon Emperor Dao Body, but it might be even more astonishing than the Dragon Emperor Dao Body.

Moreover, even if the Physiques were the same, there could still be differences and variations, not necessarily identical.

Subsequently, Honglian’s Divine Soul checked the conditions of Lu Lingxiao and Lu Linghe, and she said, “Young Master, Lingxiao and Linghe’s Dragon’s Roar Body should be incomplete, not a complete Dragon’s Roar Body. That’s why the Physique awakened under the medicinal bath baptism.”

This medicinal bath method was provided by her, so naturally, she had to explain the situation.

“Mm, I know.”

Lu Changsheng nodded and said.

He naturally knew that the Dragon’s Roar Body of these two children was incomplete, both being defective Physiques.

“Lang Jun…”

Ling Zixiao looked at Lu Linghe in Lu Changsheng’s arms, biting her lips, her face full of heartache.

This daughter was already not very clever, and now she also possessed the Dragon’s Roar Body, which made her, as a mother, incredibly heartbroken.

“It’s alright, I already knew about Xiao He’s Dragon’s Roar Body, I just didn’t expect the medicinal bath to stimulate the Dragon’s Roar Body and make it awaken prematurely.”

“Ling Zixiao, rest assured. Once I finish cultivating my new Cultivation Technique, I can resolve your and Xiao He’s Dragon’s Roar Body.”

Lu Changsheng held his daughter, comforting his wife.

If it were before, he would still be worried facing such a situation.

But now, as long as he finishes cultivating the Yin Yang Creation Scripture, he can attempt to resolve the Dragon’s Roar Body!

He might not be able to completely resolve it at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

But as long as he Breaks Through to the Golden Core Realm, he will have a seventy to eighty percent grasp!

“Lang Jun, you can resolve it?”

Ling Zixiao immediately recalled Lu Changsheng saying earlier that once he finished cultivating his Cultivation Technique, he would have a way to resolve the Dragon’s Roar Body.

She had been anxious just now and forgotten about this matter.

Of course, it was also her subconscious belief that her Lang Jun’s method for resolving the Dragon’s Roar Body relied on Dual Cultivation Cultivation Techniques like the Dragon Guiding Art.

“Yes, once my Cultivation Technique is complete, I can balance the Yin and Yang and resolve the Dragon’s Roar Body problem.”

Lu Changsheng nodded, inputting Yin and Yang spiritual power into his daughter’s body to balance her Dragon’s Roar Body.

“Father, Mother, what happened to Xiao He?”

At this moment, Lu Lingxiao, who was in the Medicinal Bath, opened his eyes and asked with some pain.

Although this Medicinal Bath would not cause one to explode and die, the cleansing process was still very painful, easily causing one to faint.

“Xiao He is not feeling well and is not suitable for the Medicinal Bath. Xiao’er, you can cleanse in peace.”

Ling Zixiao spoke, telling her son not to worry.

“Hmm~”

Lu Linghe, in Lu Changsheng’s arms, groggily opened her sleepy eyes.

But seeing herself lying in Father’s arms, she immediately smacked her lips a few times, rubbed her small head against Lu Changsheng’s chest, and fell asleep again.

“It’s nothing. At most, she will start Cultivating a few years later. There won’t be any impact.”

Lu Changsheng continued to comfort Ling Zixiao.

“Okay.”

Ling Zixiao nodded.

Although Lu Changsheng said he could resolve his daughter’s situation.

But looking at her daughter’s appearance, her heart still ached immensely.

A day later, Lu Lingxiao was pulled out of the large bronze cauldron by Lu Changsheng.

As the Medicinal Bath cleansed him and his Dragon’s Roar Body Awakened, he also fell into a deep sleep.

Lu Changsheng could clearly see that his son’s fair skin glowed with precious light, crystal clear and translucent like warm jade.

Not only was there pure and rich Spiritual Qi flowing through his Meridians and Dantian, but also wisps of scorching Dragon’s Roar Yang Qi.

As long as this son began to Cultivate, practicing Cultivation Techniques with Yang attributes, he would progress at an astonishing speed, advancing a thousand miles in a day.

Afterward, Lu Changsheng checked the condition of his son’s Dragon’s Roar Body.

“It’s just as I guessed.”

Lu Changsheng’s eyes slightly narrowed.

He himself had the Dragon’s Roar Body, so he could clearly see the difference between his son’s Dragon’s Roar Body and his own.

It was indeed as he had guessed before; his son’s Dragon’s Roar Yang Qi lacked the nourishment for his flesh and Physical Body.

And the overall effect was much worse than his own.

However, it might also be because his son was still young and had not yet begun to Cultivate, so the full effect of the Dragon’s Roar Body had not yet manifested.

“But no matter what, Lingxiao’s talent is destined to be extraordinary, and he will be the pillar of my Lu family in the future.”

Lu Changsheng didn’t pay too much attention to it.

Even if his son didn’t have the Dragon’s Roar Body, his talent of a first-grade Spiritual Root alone was already outstanding.

Even if this Dragon’s Roar Body was incomplete, it wouldn’t be worse than any mid-grade Physique, and might even have the effect of a high-grade Physique!

“Ling Zixiao, I want Xiao’er to become Honglian’s Disciple. What do you think?”

At this moment, Lu Changsheng sent a voice transmission to Ling Zixiao, asking.

After acquiring the Dragon’s Roar Body, he knew that Cultivation Techniques related to Yang, Fire, and Lightning were most suitable for his son.

The Cultivation Techniques he currently possessed were indeed not as suitable for Lu Lingxiao as Honglian’s Vermillion Bird Sky Burning Art.

So he thought of having Lu Lingxiao become Honglian’s Disciple and letting her teach him.

Not only would he find a Master for his son, but he and Honglian could also have an additional bond.

Mainly, after spending so much time together, Lu Changsheng still couldn’t understand why Honglian, as a Nascent Soul True Lord, was so obedient to him.

Although his personal charisma was good, and he could reshape her Physical Body in the future, it shouldn’t be to this extent, right?

So he was also willing to continue to be closer to her.

“Become Honglian’s Disciple?”

Upon hearing this, Ling Zixiao immediately said, “It would naturally be excellent if Xiao’er could become Senior Honglian’s Disciple!”

Although Honglian showed no airs in front of Lu Changsheng.

They, however, were still very respectful and reverent towards Honglian.

In her opinion, if her son could become the Disciple of a Nascent Soul True Lord, it would naturally be a great thing!

“Good.”

Lu Changsheng nodded, looked at the Ancient Beast Taming Talisman, and asked Honglian, “Honglian, what do you think of Lingxiao?”

“Lingxiao has a first-grade Spiritual Root and the Dragon’s Roar Body, so his talent is naturally extraordinary.”

Honglian heard the meaning in Lu Changsheng’s words and replied thus.

“I want to ask if you, Honglian, are willing to accept Lingxiao as your Disciple.”

Lu Changsheng pondered slightly.

“If Young Master wishes, Honglian is naturally willing.”

Honglian immediately responded upon hearing this.

Although she had no intention of taking on Disciples.

Lu Lingxiao’s talent wasn’t enough to make her feel a desire to cherish talent and take him as a Disciple.

But Lu Changsheng was willing to entrust this son to her for teaching and have him become her Disciple, which she was very happy about.

After all, the Master-Disciple relationship in the Cultivation World was extraordinary, like that of parents.

If she became Lu Lingxiao’s Master, her relationship with Lu Changsheng would also become closer.

“Good. In that case, when Xiao’er wakes up, I will have him acknowledge you as his Master.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng’s face showed a faint smile.

Six days later, Lu Changsheng received news from Ling Zixiao, learning that his son Lu Lingxiao had woken up.

He couldn’t help but sigh, this son had slept for quite a long time this time.

One must know that his daughter Lu Wangshu had only slept for three days and three nights back then.

However, thinking that the Medicinal Bath he had prepared this time was for two people.

But Lu Linghe was taken out halfway due to her Dragon’s Roar Body.

The remaining Medicinal Bath was basically absorbed and cleansed by Lu Lingxiao alone, who had Awakened the Dragon’s Roar Body.

So it was normal for him to sleep longer in this situation.

He came to the small courtyard and immediately saw Ling Zixiao with their son and daughter, the mother and children talking about something.

“Mother, don’t worry, I will definitely protect Younger Sister well.”

Lu Lingxiao said with a serious expression.

“Lang Jun.”

“Father, Father!”

Seeing Lu Changsheng approach, the three immediately called out.

“Hmm?”

Lu Changsheng paused when he saw his son Lu Lingxiao.

He saw that his son’s originally clear, black and white eyes had actually turned light gold.

Earlier, he had noticed that his son’s eyes sometimes had a faint, ethereal golden glow.

But now they had completely turned golden, like amber under the sun, giving off a sacred and majestic aura.

“Lang Jun, Xiao’er’s eyes have been like this since he woke up, but I checked his condition, and there’s nothing unusual.”

Ling Zixiao transmitted her voice to Lu Changsheng, somewhat worried.

“Honglian, do you know what’s going on?”

Lu Changsheng’s Ancient Beast Taming Talisman appeared in his hand, and he asked Honglian.

“This might be due to the recent Awakening of the Physique, or it could be due to the Physique being incomplete…”

Honglian said softly.

Physiques were very mysterious; even as a Nascent Soul True Lord, she found it difficult to understand the situation clearly.

Moreover, she only had her Divine Soul now and couldn’t specifically examine Lu Lingxiao’s condition.

“Physique being incomplete…”

Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng looked at his son and laughed, “Xiao’er’s eyes are truly extraordinary and mighty. In the future, when others see them, they will know that I, Lu Changsheng, have a Qilin son.”

He didn’t feel much about these golden eyes.

He just felt that if he walked out, anyone would see his extraordinary and unusual nature, which could easily attract trouble.

“Father, what about me, what about me?”

Lu Linghe heard this and immediately ran to Lu Changsheng, puffing out her chest, wanting her Father to take a good look at her and praise her.

“Hahahaha, my Xiao He is well-behaved and adorable, innocent and lively. Who wouldn’t like her when they see her?”

“Father loves Xiao He the most.”

Lu Changsheng looked at his daughter’s adorable appearance, ruffled her hair, and said with a smile.

After the family of four chatted happily, Lu Changsheng called out to Lu Lingxiao, “Xiao’er, come with me.”

He had originally intended for the siblings to begin Cultivating together.

However, due to his daughter Lu Linghe’s situation, her Cultivation could only be temporarily put on hold.

After all, if his daughter started Cultivating and caused her Dragon’s Roar Body to Awaken, there would still be some trouble.

“Father.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Lingxiao immediately followed Lu Changsheng to the main hall.

“You are about to begin Cultivating now. Your Father has found a Master for you.”

Lu Changsheng spoke, raising his hand slightly. The Ancient Beast Taming Talisman glowed with flowing light, and Honglian’s sacred, noble, and ethereal translucent figure appeared.

Lu Lingxiao immediately looked at Honglian, who wore a magnificent palace dress, had exquisite and beautiful features, and a translucent figure.

Seeing Honglian’s crimson pupils, he didn’t know why, but he thought of his own light golden eyes in the mirror earlier, and his heart skipped a beat.

“This is your Master, Honglian.”

Lu Changsheng said to his son, “Hurry and greet your Master.”

“Disciple Lu Lingxiao, greets Master!”

Lu Lingxiao immediately stepped back half a step, knelt before Honglian, and performed the grand Master-acknowledging ceremony.

Regarding Honglian, his Mother Ling Zixiao had already told him about her, knowing her noble and extraordinary identity.

Being able to acknowledge her as his Master would provide countless benefits for his future Cultivation.

“Good, from now on, you are my Disciple, Honglian’s Disciple.”

Honglian accepted the禮 with composure, her voice elegant and noble.

Then she lightly raised her hand: “Rise. I have no gifts to give you at the moment, so I will guide and teach you in Cultivation.”

“Yes, Master!”

Lu Lingxiao rose and responded.

Then Honglian began to teach Lu Lingxiao how to Cultivate.

Perhaps people with good talent also have good Comprehension Ability.

Under Honglian’s guidance, Lu Lingxiao began to Cultivate after about an hour.

Before he even had a chance to absorb Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, the Spiritual Qi and Dragon’s Roar Yang Qi already filling his body allowed him to directly complete the step of guiding Qi into his body.

Moreover, both Honglian and Lu Changsheng could see that with Lu Lingxiao’s current Cultivation speed, he would likely Break Through again very soon.

Lu Changsheng felt that at his son Lu Lingxiao’s Cultivation speed, he would probably be able to Break Through to Foundation Establishment by the time he was around twenty!

“Indeed, if effort were useful, what would we need talent for?”

Lu Changsheng shook his head lightly.

Watching his children at Lu’s become increasingly Genius, he deeply realized that effort was simply not worth mentioning in the face of absolute talent.

Immediately, he handed the Ancient Beast Taming Talisman to his son Lu Lingxiao, telling him that he could ask Honglian for guidance on anything.
