Starting From a Son in Law to Build a Long Lasting Family
Chapter 371: The magical fruit, practice the Yin-Yang Creation Sutra!
Chapter 370: Divine Ability Fruit, Cultivating the Yin Yang Creation Scripture!
“Yes, Junior Martial Uncle.”
The young man named Han Jing nodded, his Aura cold and pressing. He stepped onto the Ask-Sword Platform, cupped his hands towards Lu Qingshan, and said, “Han Jing, please guide me.”
“What, Senior Brother Han Jing is already on stage!”
“When Junior Brother Han Jing broke through to Foundation Establishment, he comprehended the second Realm of the Sword Dao, ‘Sword Qi Transformation’. Now, in the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment, he has already touched upon the third Realm of the Sword Dao, ‘sword-qi thunder-sound’. There are few opponents in the same Realm, and even if his cultivation is suppressed to the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment, it’s still a bit unfair.”
“That’s right, for Senior Brother Han to come on stage so quickly, even if he wins, it will make our Heaven Sword Sect seem to have won unfairly!”
The Heaven Sword Sect Disciples below the stage started discussing animatedly when they saw Han Jing go on stage, feeling very puzzled.
There was an unwritten rule for asking for a sword challenge.
That is, those who go on stage to ask for a sword challenge always go from weak to strong.
Someone like Han Jing was a well-ranked existence within the Heaven Sword Sect.
Once he stepped onto the stage, many Heaven Sword Sect Disciples would effectively lose the qualification to spar with Lu Qingshan.
“Please enlighten me!”
Lu Qingshan looked at the sharp-spirited Han Jing before him, nodded slightly, and a hint of seriousness appeared in his eyes.
The two began to clash.
Han Jing was clearly a level stronger than the previous three.
He spat out an exquisite, small, inch-long sword, causing a sharp, cold, and pressing Aura to immediately erupt on the Ask-Sword Platform, making people dare not look directly at it.
Immediately after, a Rolling tide of overbearing Sword Qi surged towards Lu Qingshan, accompanied by bursts of thunder-sound, as if to flay him alive.
Lu Qingshan, on the other hand, held a golden Dharma Sword, his Sword Qi like a blazing star river, engulfing the stars, vast and mighty.
“sword-qi thunder-sound, Senior Brother Han Jing has already comprehended sword-qi thunder-sound!”
“Wait, this Lu Qingshan has also comprehended sword-qi thunder-sound!?”
“Hiss, this person has only broken through to Foundation Establishment for a few years, and he has already comprehended sword-qi thunder-sound!”
“This level of Sword Dao Talent is simply astonishing!”
“If this Lu Qingshan were in our Heaven Sword Sect, he would probably be at the Sword Child level.”
“No wonder Senior Brother Han Jing went straight onto the stage; it turns out he had already seen that Lu Qingshan was not simple and had not been using his full strength.”
The Heaven Sword Sect Disciples watching the two clashing on the Ask-Sword Platform couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.
Although many Cultivators came to the Heaven Sword Sect to ask for a sword challenge.
There were truly not many people as astonishingly talented as Lu Qingshan.
“Clang, clang, clang—”
On the Ask-Sword Platform, the two continued to clash.
In the end, facing Lu Qingshan’s barrage of attacks, Han Jing, using his Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Dharma Power, could only concede defeat.
“This, Senior Brother Han lost!”
“How is this possible!”
“Lu Qingshan, such a Sword Cultivator, actually doesn’t come from our Heaven Sword Sect!”
The Heaven Sword Sect Disciples were all somewhat disbelieving when they saw Han Jing concede defeat.
One must know that among Sword Cultivators in the Jiang Country, their Heaven Sword Sect was supreme!
Although the Jin Yang Sect was good, it was only a Core Formation level force, and the Sword Dao was only one of its lineages.
But now, such an astonishingly talented Sword Cultivator actually came from the Jin Yang Sect, which made them incredibly hard to believe.
“Fellow Daoist Han, our Sword Dao sparring is not yet complete. Why should you worry about Dharma Power Realm? Just use your full strength.”
At this moment, Lu Qingshan looked at the conceding Han Jing and said.
He had gained a lot from sparring with the other party.
Because although the Jin Yang Sect had Sword Arts, they were not many.
Over the years, he had already comprehended and learned all of the Jin Yang Sect’s Sword Arts.
Just now, when the two of them exchanged blows, he had gained something from the other party’s Sword Arts and Sword Intent.
He wanted to take this Opportunity to integrate all kinds of Sword Intent into himself and slowly forge his own Sword Dao.
After all, no matter what Sword Art Cultivation Technique, they were all the Sword Dao of predecessors, not his own Sword Dao!
Only his own Sword Dao was most suitable for him!
“What, he actually told Senior Brother Han Jing not to worry about his Dharma Power Realm!”
“Junior Brother Han Jing is at the fifth layer of Foundation Establishment, while he is only at the second layer of Foundation Establishment!”
“If it were some good-for-nothing Loose Cultivator, a difference of one Realm wouldn’t matter much, but which of us Heaven Sword Sect Disciples isn’t an outstanding talent among those of the same Realm? This is simply too disrespectful to Senior Brother Han Jing!”
“Damn it, if this child wins, where will our Heaven Sword Sect’s Face be placed!”
The Heaven Sword Sect Disciples below the stage immediately stirred when they heard this, some surprised, some emotional, and some indignant.
“Good!”
Han Jing’s eyes narrowed upon hearing this, his Aura pressing, and he responded coldly.
Losing to Lu Qingshan, he also felt quite suppressed in his Heart.
He wanted to see where the other party’s limit truly lay.
Moreover, such a pure Sword Dao clash was quite beneficial to him.
In an instant, the two on stage continued to exchange blows.
“It seems there are not many in the Heaven Sword Sect of the same age and Realm who can rein in Qingshan.”
Heavenly Kite Immortal Master sighed in her Heart as she watched the two on the Ask-Sword Platform.
She came to the Heaven Sword Sect this time hoping that the Heaven Sword Sect could teach Lu Qingshan a lesson, to let him know the immensity of the world.
This kind of lesson had to be a powerful and overbearing defeat of Lu Qingshan!
But now it seemed that the Heaven Sword Sect would find it difficult to find such a Disciple.
“If no one can rein him in during this sword challenge, won’t he treat everyone he meets afterwards as mere chickens and dogs, as those who sell their heads for a pittance?”
Heavenly Kite Immortal Master worried in her Heart.
She wondered if she should take Lu Qingshan out to see the dangers of the Cultivation World later.
After all, it’s easy to dodge an open spear, but hard to guard against a hidden arrow.
This kind of temperament was most afraid of hidden dangers.
“Heavenly Kite Immortal Master has taken in a good Disciple.”
At this moment, Yu Jian Zhenren looked at the two on the Ask-Sword Platform and transmitted his voice to Heavenly Kite Immortal Master, somewhat emotional.
His original intention in inviting Lu Qingshan to the Heaven Sword Sect for a sword challenge was to use the other party to temper his own Disciples.
Now, the effect was there.
But if his own Disciples couldn’t defeat Lu Qingshan, it would be a bit awkward.
Although he was confident that his Sect Disciples could suppress and win against Lu Qingshan.
If they didn’t win against Lu Qingshan among those of the same age and Realm, it would still lack something.
“My unruly Disciple has made Immortal Master laugh.”
Heavenly Kite Immortal Master said.
“How many people would be eager to have such a Disciple?”
Yu Jian Zhenren shook his head and said.
In the Cultivation World, one Genius Disciple could be said to be worth hundreds of mediocre talents.
A Genius like Lu Qingshan, as long as he didn’t perish midway, Core Formation was practically a certainty.
On the Ask-Sword Platform, as Han Jing no longer suppressed his Dharma Power cultivation, Lu Qingshan immediately felt immense pressure.
However, Han Jing wasn’t purely relying on Dharma Power to suppress him; he merely used many methods of the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage.
This kind of sparring match left many Heaven Sword Sect Disciples continuously exclaiming in admiration.
In this battle, Lu Qingshan ultimately won by a narrow margin.
But after the battle ended, Lu Qingshan, due to considerable consumption, did not continue fighting.
He stated that he would continue tomorrow, and that his purpose for this trip was to spar in the Sword Dao, so there was no need to worry about Realm or Dharma Power; all Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, and even Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivators, could come on stage to discuss the sword.
Although Lu Qingshan appeared very humble in today’s battle, not being arrogant.
However, as soon as these words came out, many Heaven Sword Sect Disciples immediately felt indignant in their Hearts.
They prepared to properly teach Lu Qingshan a lesson on the Ask-Sword Platform tomorrow, to let him know the immensity of the world.
“Alas.”
Heavenly Kite Immortal Master looked at her Disciple on the stage, shook her head and sighed, then said to Lu Qingzhu, the Disciple beside her, “Qingzhu, tell Qingshan later to try to talk less during sparring.”
Although whatever she said to Lu Qingshan, he would nod and respond, Master is right.
But if he were to truly listen, Lu Qingshan would take Lu Qingzhu’s words more to Heart.
So over the years, Heavenly Kite Immortal Master also realized that taking the two siblings as Disciples together was a very correct choice back then.
If she had only taken Lu Qingshan as a Disciple, this Disciple’s personality would probably be much more reclusive and arrogant.
With Lu Qingzhu by his side, Lu Qingshan would still pay attention to things many times.
This also made her sometimes worry that if something were to happen to Lu Qingzhu one day, Lu Qingshan would probably not know what he would become.
“Master, please rest assured.”
Lu Qingzhu, with her clear and serene appearance, softly responded.
She had watched the entire battle from below and naturally knew that her brother’s actions and words had displeased many Heaven Sword Sect Disciples.
“Lu Qingshan of the Jin Yang Sect, challenged the Heaven Sword Sect, overwhelming all peers of the same Realm.”
“Only the Heaven Sword Sect’s True Disciple ‘Peerless’ was evenly matched with Lu Qingshan, with no clear winner.”
“Before leaving, Lu Qingshan carved a ‘Lu’ character on the Heaven Sword Stele of the Heaven Sword Sect, agreeing to challenge the Heaven Sword Sect again another day.”
Bihu Mountain, Lu Changsheng looked at the letter in his hand, which contained information about his son, Lu Qingshan.
“The Heaven Sword Sect is the foremost Immortal Sect in Jiang Country, a Nascent Soul-level force. Qingshan can actually be peerless among those of the same Realm and challenge those of higher Realms in the Heaven Sword Sect.”
“Tsk tsk tsk, as expected of my son, Lu Changsheng.”
A faint smile appeared on Lu Changsheng’s Face.
As parents, who doesn’t hope for their son to become a Dragon and their daughter a Phoenix.
Lu Qingshan was the son on whom he placed great hopes.
Now that he had achieved such accomplishments, he, as a Father, was naturally very proud.
He then looked at the content of the later information, wanting to know who this ‘Peerless’ was, who could be evenly matched with his son, with no clear winner.
“Peerless, a True Disciple of the Heaven Sword Sect, a Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Cultivator, possessing a ‘Supreme Sword Bone’.”
Lu Changsheng was somewhat surprised when he saw the content of the letter.
Because this ‘Supreme Sword Bone’ belonged to a top-tier Spiritual Body!
Lu Qingshan actually fought to a draw with the other party.
Moreover, the other party was also a Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Cultivator.
Although the cultivation was suppressed to the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment.
But if they were both in the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment, Lu Qingshan’s chances of winning would probably be a bit higher.
“From this perspective, the effect of ‘Sword Soaring to the Dipper’ is in no way inferior to Spiritual Bodies like ‘Supreme Sword Bone’.”
Lu Changsheng’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he stroked his chin.
At this moment, he finally had a clear understanding of the effect of the Dharma Seed he had obtained back then.
After all, he only knew his son was powerful before, but had no concrete Concept.
Now, through this sword challenge at the Heaven Sword Sect and the comparison, he knew that his son Lu Qingshan was in no way inferior to those with top-tier Spiritual Bodies.
He was even a bit more formidable.
“However, the amazing effect of this Dharma Seed on Qingshan is also related to Qingshan’s Heart-Nature, Talent, and effort.”
Lu Changsheng naturally wouldn’t believe that his son Lu Qingshan’s achievements were entirely due to the Dharma Seed.
Back when there was no Dharma Seed, Lu Qingshan had already begun to show his talent in the Jin Yang Sect.
This Dharma Seed merely transformed the already Genius Lu Qingshan into a Prodigy-level Genius!
“The Fusion and enhancement of the Dharma Seed is a long-term process.”
“This isn’t Qingshan’s limit yet. As Qingshan grows, his Sword Dao talent can continue to improve!”
Lu Changsheng thought of the effect of the Dharma Seed and was full of expectations for his son’s future.
“It seems that this Dharma Seed is truly a good thing. I wonder when I can get a few more.”
“If I could get a few more, my Lu Family would have a few more top-tier Geniuses.”
Lu Changsheng exclaimed, suddenly feeling more anticipation for rare items like the Dharma Seed.
Then, he took the news to his wife, Lu Miaohuan, to share the good tidings with her.
“Heaven Sword Sect’s Sword Inquiry, overpowering all Cultivators of the same Realm…”
Lu Miaohuan wore a deep red gauze dress, with a luxurious black mink fur draped over her shoulders, appearing graceful, noble, and very alluring.
After seeing the content of the letter, her cold, elegant, and poised Face immediately showed joy and pride.
The Heaven Sword Sect, in her impression, was a towering behemoth.
Now, her son could not only go to the Heaven Sword Sect for a Sword Inquiry but also overpower all Cultivators of the same Realm within the Heaven Sword Sect during the Sword Inquiry, contending with top-tier Spiritual Bodies.
How could this not make her, as a Mother, excited and proud?
“Husband, will Qingshan’s challenge at the Heaven Sword Sect make the Heaven Sword Sect lose Face and cause trouble?”
A moment later, Lu Miaohuan spoke with some apprehension, worried that her son might offend the Heaven Sword Sect because of this.
After all, the Heaven Sword Sect was known for its domineering nature outside.
“How could that be? As the number one Immortal Sect in our Jiang Country, the Heaven Sword Sect naturally possesses the demeanor of an Immortal Sect.”
“Since they allowed Qingshan to engrave his name on the Heavenly Sword Stele, it means they acknowledge Qingshan.”
“Moreover, Qingshan’s trip to the Heaven Sword Sect for the Sword Inquiry is accompanied by Heavenly Kite Immortal Master, so nothing will happen.”
Lu Changsheng embraced his wife’s graceful waist, enveloped by the gauze dress, and said with a smile.
Although the Heaven Sword Sect was domineering, in his opinion, it wouldn’t be so petty.
Furthermore, the Sword Inquiry was a tradition of the Heaven Sword Sect.
Its original intention was to use the top-tier Geniuses of the world to temper their own Disciples.
If those who came for the Sword Inquiry could only lose and not win, then this tradition would be meaningless and could not continue indefinitely.
“Mm.”
Lu Miaohuan nodded gently, then said with a touch of melancholy, “Qingshan didn’t even manage to come back this trip to Jiang Country…”
Ever since the Purple Nether Secret Realm ended and her son returned to the Jin Yang Sect, he only sent a letter back after his Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment.
Moreover, by the time this letter reached Bihu Mountain, two years had already passed since Lu Qingshan’s Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment.
“Miaohuan, if you feel a bit bored, we can have a few more children. That way, you won’t be bored.”
Lu Changsheng embraced his wife’s exquisite body, picked her up, and had her round, perky buttocks sit on his lap, speaking into her delicate ear.
Lu Miaohuan’s personality in her early years was relatively playful.
After becoming a Mother, her personality gradually became more restrained.
Now, both of her sons have grown up, with the eldest son far away in Yue Country and the youngest son long-term at White Tiger Mountain.
Because of the Heaven and Earth Longevity Method, she couldn’t leave Bihu Mountain, so she naturally felt somewhat idle and bored on a daily basis.
Therefore, Lu Changsheng thought that Lu Miaohuan could give birth to another ’little cotton jacket’ to keep her company at Lu.
Although there were so many children and newborns in Lu.
But the ones she carried for ten months and gave birth to were, after all, a bit closer.
“Husband~”
Lu Miaohuan rolled her eyes at Lu Changsheng upon hearing this.
They were already an old couple; having a few more children at this point always made her feel a bit strange.
But in her Heart-Nature, she couldn’t help but feel a little tempted.
On one hand, she did feel bored at Lu and could have a few children to pass the time.
On the other hand, she personally wanted a well-behaved and sensible daughter.
Seeing his wife like this, Lu Changsheng immediately embraced her curvaceous body and kissed her fiery red lips.
For a moment, the ancient and elegant room was quietly filled with the essence of spring.
Regarding Lu Qingshan’s matters, besides Lu Miaohuan and Lu Miaoge, Lu Changsheng did not publicize it too much.
After all, for such matters, those with information channels would naturally know, and for Family forces without information channels, publicity held little meaning.
Moreover, he didn’t want to be too high-profile right now.
In these days, besides his daily Cultivation and accompanying Lu Miaohuan, Lu Changsheng also went to Hongye Valley Market to Cultivate the Sun Moon Reincarnation Art with Lu Miaoge.
Among the Sun Moon Reincarnation Art practiced by the several women, his and Lu Miaoge’s was the most profound.
They were just one step away from touching the profound level of spiritual communion described in the Cultivation Technique.
According to the Sun Moon Reincarnation Art’s introduction, such spiritual communion was of great help to one’s spirit and Divine Sense.
If Cultivated to a certain extent, it could even involve the Concept of Reincarnation.
Lu Changsheng had always hoped to draw a top-tier spirit and Divine Sense Cultivation Technique in his early years.
But he never drew one, so now he planned to rely on this Sun Moon Reincarnation Art to Cultivate his Divine Soul and Divine Sense.
“Congratulations to the Host! Your descendants have given birth to 500 offspring, granting you one lottery chance!”
On this day, a System prompt sounded in Lu Changsheng’s mind.
“Five hundred without realizing it, huh?”
Lu Changsheng felt quite emotional upon hearing this System prompt.
Now, more than forty years had passed, and the third generation of the Lu Family had gradually come of age, starting families, marrying, and having children.
In a few more decades, the Family’s population was estimated to grow exponentially, like a snowball.
However, when the fourth generation of the Lu Family was born earlier, the System no longer gave out ‘red envelopes’ (gifts).
“The quantity has increased, but the quality still depends on me.”
Lu Changsheng thought about the proportion of children with Spiritual Roots among these five hundred and shook his head slightly.
When both parents are Mortals, the probability of giving birth to a child with a Spiritual Root is too small.
And wanting to give birth to a junior with extraordinary talent is even more difficult.
However, once the second generation of the Lu Family here in Bihu Mountain gradually started families, the quality of the third generation should improve significantly.
Lu Changsheng didn’t dwell on his emotions too much and silently chanted, “System, draw a lottery.”
Immediately, the System’s grand roulette appeared, with golden light rotating.
A moment later, the golden light stopped on ‘Other’.
“Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Divine Ability Fruit!”
“The reward has been issued to the System space. The Host can view it at any time.”
A dark black fruit appeared, accompanied by the System prompt.
“Divine Ability Fruit?”
Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow upon seeing this reward.
“Spiritual Fruit: Divine Ability Fruit”
“Grade: Third Tier”
“Description: Bears fruit in three hundred years, matures in five hundred years. After a Foundation Establishment Cultivator consumes it, they can comprehend a pseudo-Divine Ability that is compatible with their own Cultivation Technique.”
“Indeed, it’s just as the Divine Ability Fruit was described in the ancient texts I read before.”
Lu Changsheng had previously spent time learning about many heaven and earth spiritual plants.
Among them, he had seen the Divine Ability Fruit tree.
This fruit tree was a Fourth Grade spiritual plant, and its growth was very demanding.
The fruits it condensed had astonishing effects, just as the System description stated.
One must know that Divine Abilities could only be Cultivated by Core Formation True Persons!
Ordinary Cultivators, unless they were extraordinarily talented and had Opportunities or fortuitous encounters, would absolutely not be able to Cultivate a Divine Ability.
However, this Divine Ability Fruit, if consumed, allowed one to spontaneously comprehend a Divine Ability.
If a Foundation Establishment Cultivator mastered a Divine Ability, even if they were originally just an ordinary Cultivator, they would immediately stand out!
“It’s a pity it’s only one Divine Ability Fruit, not a Divine Ability Fruit tree.”
Lu Changsheng looked at this reward and shook his head slightly, somewhat looking down on this Divine Ability Fruit.
After all, he was already at the Foundation Establishment Ninth Level and possessed numerous Spell Divine Abilities.
He absolutely didn’t need to consume a Divine Ability Fruit to comprehend such a pseudo-Divine Ability to enhance his combat power.
“In a few more years, Qingxuan should be breaking through to Foundation Establishment. Perhaps I’ll give him this Divine Ability Fruit…”
Lu Changsheng thought of his son, Lu Qingxuan.
This son had a Fourth Grade Spiritual Root, good talent, and was very diligent on weekdays.
He was the only one in Lu who didn’t use a ‘cheat’ but relied on his own talent and effort to Cultivate step by step.
Therefore, Lu Changsheng planned to give him this Divine Ability Fruit after he broke through to Foundation Establishment, to make his future Cultivation path a little easier.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, more than half a year passed.
During these days, Lu Changsheng had three more children.
Lu Miaohuan also successfully became pregnant with her third child.
Although both of them were Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
And Lu Changsheng had prepared many Medicinal Pills for Lu Miaohuan to stabilize her pregnancy.
But after becoming pregnant, Lu Miaohuan’s Heart-Nature began to worry and feel nervous again, fearing that this child might not have a Spiritual Root.
Not long ago, the Lu Family’s Qi Refining Ninth Layer Disciples finally broke through the ten-person mark, and Lu Changsheng received a lottery chance.
However, his luck was very bad, and he drew a very useless Second Tier skill—Spirit Chef!
An ordinary skill would still be somewhat useful to Lu Changsheng.
But for this Spirit Chef skill, one could only say it added a bit of fun to life.
On this day, in a simple and elegant Immortal Cave in Hongye Valley Market.
Lu Changsheng was Cultivating the Sun Moon Reincarnation Art with Lu Miaoge.
As their Cultivation Technique deepened, the Yin-Yang Two Qi circulated within their bodies, slowly transforming into wisps of Yin-Yang Dharma Power.
Suddenly, the Yin-Yang Dharma Power in Lu Changsheng’s Qi Sea Dantian began to surge and churn, frantically devouring the remaining Seven Luminaries Dharma Power in his Dantian lake.
His Yin Yang Creation Scripture was finally about to complete its conversion!
“Buzz buzz buzz!”
Lu Changsheng’s Dantian lake boiled, and the Yin-Yang Dharma Power roared, impacting and purifying the Yin-Yang Five Elements Dao Foundation.
At this moment, the Dao Foundation instantly bloomed with endless profound radiance, as brilliant as a rainbow, with myriad rays of light.
“It’s done?”
Lu Miaoge sensed the situation within her husband’s body, knowing that Lu Changsheng had completed the Cultivation Technique conversion, and looked at the changes before her with some surprise.
However, fearing to affect Lu Changsheng, she dared not stop the Sun Moon Reincarnation Art.
Just then, the rotating sun and moon formed by the Sun Moon Reincarnation Art above their heads actually formed a wonderful resonance with Lu Changsheng’s Yin-Yang Five Elements Dao Foundation and Yin Yang Creation Scripture.
In an instant, within the Immortal Cave, the two figures quietly intertwined, entering an incomparably profound state.
My recent state has been a bit problematic; I feel like all the plot points lack excitement and meaning, leading to severe writer’s block. The previously owed chapters can only be delayed for now. My apologies.
