Chapter 560: Skill upgrade, Great Wilderness Dragon Armor, Divine Machine Hundred Refining Techniques!

Several days later.

“Xiao’er, you can practice your Dragon Seeking Technique more diligently in the future.”

Seeing that his son’s Dragon Seeking skills had finally advanced to the second level, Lu Changsheng did not stay long and left with his daughters, Lu Linghe and Lu Baixi.

The two little ones, one big and one small, were very interested in underwater adventures and wanted to explore with their older brother and sisters, but Lu Changsheng ignored their requests.

After returning to the City Lord’s mansion, Lu Changsheng pondered whether or not to send his son, Lu Lingxiao, to the frontier war.

Compared to the Great Dream Marsh, the Myriad Beast Mountain Range would be more suitable for his son.

After all, his son cultivates fire techniques, and the Great Dream Marsh is an endless water region. His mana would be weakened by thirty percent after entering the water, restricting his movements during battle.

If he went to the Myriad Beast Mountain Range, he could fully display his skills.

“Although Xiao’er has broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, not many people besides the family know about his situation. He can completely disguise his identity and participate in the frontier war.”

Lu Changsheng pondered in his heart.

His son, Lu Lingxiao, obtained the Son of Heaven’s Qi Observation Seed. He possesses innate combat experience and needs to constantly fight to master it and improve himself.

His Son of Heaven’s Qi Observation Technique can observe mountains and earth veins, but it is also affected in the Great Dream Marsh.

If he goes to the Myriad Beast Mountain Range to train, it would be much better.

Moreover, the frontier war is full of danger and opportunity. His son might be able to rise up through his own efforts.

“Although the frontier war is cruel, it is also an opportunity, a channel for advancement.”

“When I declare my Core Formation cultivation, or when Xiyue breaks through to Core Formation, I can also go to the Myriad Beast Mountain Range to oversee and take care of him, to avoid accidents.”

“Moreover, Red Lotus once said that although Heavenly Spiritual Roots have no bottlenecks before Core Formation and can increase the probability of reaching the Nascent Soul stage, the chances of those with Heavenly Spiritual Roots breaking through to Nascent Soul are not necessarily higher than those with ordinary Spiritual Roots.”

“Because many Heavenly Spiritual Roots progress too smoothly in the early stages, making it even more difficult for them to break through to Nascent Soul than ordinary Spiritual Root cultivators.”

Lu Changsheng pondered, preparing to discuss this matter with Ling Zixiao.

For his daughters, Lu Linghe, Lu Baixi, and Lu Qingqi, he is willing to raise them at home.

But for his sons, Lu Lingxiao, Lu Quanzhen, Lu Qingxuan, and even Lu Ping’an, Lu Qingsong, and other sons with average talents, Lu Changsheng hopes they will go out and become independent individuals.

“Frontier War…”

Ling Zixiao listened to Lu Changsheng’s thoughts and pondered deeply.

Although she was worried about her son, she always understood that a fledgling eagle can only transform into a Kunpeng and soar ninety thousand miles into the sky if it faces the abyss and storms alone.

If she always keeps her son at home, by her side, it will be difficult for him to truly grow up.

“Husband, the Great Dream Immortal City can also recommend cultivators to the Heavenly Sword Sect to sign up for the frontier war.”

Ling Zixiao said after a moment of contemplation.

Although the Great Dream Immortal City does not have to be forcibly conscripted, the Heavenly Sword Sect also has a call to encourage cultivators from the Great Dream Marsh to participate in the frontier war.

Like before, the Great Dream Immortal City has already issued a call to the Great Dream Marsh.

In addition to signing up through normal channels, the Great Dream Immortal City can also recommend some talented elite cultivators to the Heavenly Sword Sect.

If these people perform well in the frontier war in the future, the Heavenly Sword Sect will also give the Great Dream Immortal City certain benefits.

“I’ll ask Xiao’er for his opinion later. Moreover, there is no rush. I will arrange it after Xiyue reaches Core Formation.”

Lu Changsheng said, not in a hurry about this matter.

The frontier war is not a matter of a day or two. Besides signing up now, they can still go in the future if they want to.

“System, lottery.”

After finishing his work, Lu Changsheng thought of his lottery draw.

He now has no feeling for ordinary lottery draws and is very casual.

【Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining Second-Order Poison Making Skills!】

【The reward has been distributed to the system space, the host can check it at any time】

“Poison making?”

Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow.

He didn’t expect to obtain the Body of Calamitous Poison and now be given poison making skills.

However, Second-Order poison making is meaningless to him.

After all, what’s the use of Second-Order poison?

To give to his daughters as dessert?

If he really wants to refine poison, there’s also Meng Xiaochan, the mother of his child.

“Hmm?”

However, at this moment, he noticed an extra piece of information in the system space for poison making skills.

【The host has mastered more than ten skills and can choose to convert this skill into experience for other skills】

“Hiss, this is a bit interesting.”

Lu Changsheng looked at this information with a smile on his face.

Although he has many skills, to be honest, not many of them are useful.

But if he raises some of these skills to the Third or even Fourth Order, then the effect will come.

“Talismans, alchemy, or Dragon Seeking…”

Lu Changsheng thought about the skills he currently possesses.

In terms of talismans, there is no need to say more.

Although he can draw Third-Order talismans, he can only draw Third-Order middle-grade ones at most.

If he can raise talisman making to Third-Order top-grade, it will save a lot of time and effort.

In terms of alchemy, if he advances to Third-Order top-grade, the matter of refining Core Condensation Pills will be easily solved.

As for Dragon Seeking, it is also very important.

With his current Dragon Seeking skills, there is no problem extracting Second-Order spiritual veins, but for Third-Order spiritual veins, the consumption of the spiritual vein’s origin is a bit too much.

After all, extracting the origin of spiritual veins through Dragon Seeking Technique inherently involves a certain amount of loss.

Forcibly extracting Third-Order spiritual veins would result in even greater loss and would be very wasteful.

Originally, he planned to take a break for a while and temporarily not dig spiritual veins.

But not long ago, he obtained the ‘Sun and Moon Two Instruments Profound Light Mirror’, and this mirror is a big consumer of spiritual energy.

In order to make the mirror’s power and effect greater, Lu Changsheng also wants to upgrade the spiritual veins at home to Third-Order top-grade or even quasi-Fourth-Order as soon as possible.

“The matter of spiritual veins cannot be rushed. I don’t have time to extract spiritual veins right now either.”

“In terms of alchemy, I don’t know when I will be able to gather the materials for Core Condensation Pills and other pills. I should improve talisman making first.”

“In a few years, I will break through to Core Formation. I will definitely focus on the Dao of Talismans to the outside world. How can I do it if my talisman making level is still Third-Order middle-grade?”

Lu Changsheng thought for a moment and decided to improve his talisman making level first.

Instantly, with a thought, the light ball of poison making entered his mind and turned into a massive amount of talisman making experience.

After a long time.

“Sure enough, it’s faster to cheat.”

Lu Changsheng opened his eyes, exhaled a long breath, and looked quite emotional.

Originally, relying on his own efforts, it took so much time to barely become a Third-Order middle-grade talisman master.

But relying on the experience converted from poison making skills, he instantly improved to a Third-Order top-grade talisman master and reconsolidated his talisman foundation.

“My talisman making level should also be improved, otherwise, in a few years, I won’t be able to teach my children.”

Lu Changsheng was in a good mood, then came to the study, pointed his talisman brush, and tried to draw Third-Order top-grade talismans.

As for Third-Order extreme-grade talismans, he does not have the corresponding talisman skin and spiritual ink.

After all, Third-Order talisman making materials are very rare.

Even if he has the raw materials, he cannot refine talisman skins and spiritual ink that he cannot use.

“I should also refine a new talisman brush later.”

Re-experiencing the feeling of having divine inspiration when writing, Lu Changsheng nodded in satisfaction.

As for Third-Order top-grade talisman brushes, they are not that precious to him now.

The existing monster beast materials are enough for him to refine multiple Third-Order top-grade talisman brushes.

Immediately, Lu Changsheng walked out of the study and instructed Ling Zixiao to purchase some Third-Order top-grade talisman skins and spiritual ink through the Immortal City.

He also asked Ling Zixiao to find someone to process some raw materials into talisman skins and spiritual ink.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed.

On this day, Lu Changsheng lightly raised his palm, and a sensing talisman appeared.

Through the communication talisman, Lu Changsheng immediately knew that it was a letter from his wife, Lu Miaoyun, indicating that his son, Lu Ping’an, had left seclusion.

“It’s time to go back.”

Lu Changsheng stretched his back, got up from his gentle embrace, told Honglian, Ling Zixiao, and Meng Xiaochan, and then took Qu Zhenzhen and Lu Miaoge back to Bihu Mountain.

This trip back is not only to see Lu Ping’an’s situation, but also to help Xiao Xiyue reach Core Formation.

The other party’s Core Formation is in the next year or two. He needs to spend more time to completely integrate the ‘Yin Yang Dao Seed’ with her.

As for taking Lu Miaoge back, it is so that his son, Lu Qingxuan, can prepare for Foundation Establishment.

When his son breaks through to Foundation Establishment, he can awaken the Taiyi Soul Body. Lu Miaoge, as his mother, naturally wants to witness it.

Ten days later.

The three quietly returned to Bihu Mountain.

“Come, Ping’an, let me see your current strength.”

Lu Changsheng immediately called his son, Lu Ping’an.

After the latter refined the Great Desolate Dragon Spine, his whole body seemed to have a bit more domineering pressure from the ancient barbaric era, pressing on people’s minds.

“Father, be careful.”

Lu Ping’an said in a deep voice, indicating that he had improved a lot after obtaining the Great Desolate Dragon Spine.

Immediately, he clenched his five fingers, his blood and energy soaring into the sky. The great dragon in his spine seemed to soar into the sky, transforming into an ancient Azure Dragon, standing proudly, with countless ferocious birds and beasts prostrating and trembling.

“Boom!”

This punch was very terrifying, directly causing Lu Ping’an’s physical strength, which had just broken through to the Third Order, to reach the peak of the early Third Order.

“Good, good, good.”

Lu Changsheng nodded in satisfaction, thinking that this Great Desolate Dragon Spine was indeed extraordinary, and then asked about another effect—the Great Desolate Dragon Armor!

He saw Lu Ping’an’s blood and mana rolling, his breathing becoming heavier and heavier, like muffled thunder, with dragon pillars coiling between his mouth and nose.

“Roar!”

As a dragon roar came, his spine seemed to rush out of a golden dragon-shaped phantom, covering his muscles.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Ping’an’s bones exploded with ‘crackling’ sounds, his body continued to grow taller, and patches of palm-sized dragon scales emerged all over his body, eventually forming a ferocious and divine dragon-shaped armor.

A pair of horned, curved-upwards, dragon-head-like helmets also appeared on his head, slowly placed on his head.

At this moment, Lu Ping’an seemed to have become a dragon-headed, human-bodied dragonman, his body tall and strong, full of explosive power.

Just standing still gave people a sense of overwhelming pressure.

“Not bad.”

Lu Changsheng looked at his son in this state, nodded in praise, and signaled Lu Ping’an to continue punching.

“Boom!”

With one punch, the wind and clouds changed color, and his thick black hair danced like a cloak, giving people an extremely strong sense of oppression.

In this state, Lu Ping’an’s physical strength directly reached the middle stage of the Third Order!

And the most terrifying thing is that the Great Desolate Dragon Armor on his body can also continuously provide power, forming an absolute defense.

Lu Changsheng simply tried it, and the Great Desolate Dragon Armor could directly ignore the magical powers of ordinary Core Formation early stage cultivators.

The magical powers and magic weapons of Core Formation middle stage cultivators can cause some damage, but it is difficult to break the dragon armor.

Only Core Formation late stage cultivators can break his dragon armor!

“Not bad, not bad!”

Lu Changsheng nodded in satisfaction.

With the Great Desolate Dragon Spine, Lu Ping’an is not invincible below the Core Formation late stage, but he is directly invincible.

It’s just that the power provided by the Great Desolate Dragon Armor is limited, and it will cause a certain burden on the physical body afterwards.

In addition to the Great Desolate Dragon Armor, the increase in strength brought about by the physical body, this section of the Great Desolate Dragon Spine is still constantly nourishing his body, flesh, muscles, bones, and internal organs.

Because this Dragon Spine was only initially refined and hasn’t completely merged with him yet.

Therefore, during this process, Lu Ping’an’s body refinement is equivalent to having an additional layer of the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art effect, which can help him constantly improve his physical body.

“With your current strength, ordinary early-stage Golden Core cultivators, or even mid-stage ones, are no match for you.”

“However, you haven’t completely fused with the Great Wilderness Dragon Spine, this method can only be used as a trump card and must never be revealed.”

Lu Changsheng patted his son’s shoulder and said.

Although the Great Wilderness Dragon Spine has been refined, it can still be snatched away like a magic weapon.

Therefore, this kind of method should still be hidden as much as possible and used as an absolute killing move.

“Dad, I understand.”

Although Lu Ping’an is honest, he understands these principles.

“You can solve the magic weapon problem yourself. I will refine a Sun and Moon Token for you in the next few days.”

Lu Changsheng said.

Although he hunted many demon kings, he didn’t have suitable materials for forging magic weapons.

And the latter doesn’t need any magic weapons, it’s better to use his physical body and fists directly.

Immediately, he took the Sun and Moon Two Instruments Profound Light Mirror and began to refine the ‘Sun and Moon Token’ he envisioned.

Three days later.

碧云 Peak.

Lu Changsheng threw an ancient token, one side gilded and the other silver, to Lu Ping’an.

“Inject mana and try it.”

“Ah?”

Lu Ping’an looked at the ancient token in his hand, somewhat puzzled, but still obediently injected mana.

Although this token was ancient, once mana was injected, it instantly flowed with the luster of the sun and moon, which was very gorgeous.

Seeing this, Lu Changsheng then came to the Sumeru Cave Heaven, in the Longevity Hall, and said to the Sun and Moon Two Instruments Profound Light Mirror: “Awu.”

“Buzz!”

Only to see a figure of Lu Ping’an holding the token outside, looking dazed, appear in the mirror.

“Yes.”

Lu Changsheng nodded slightly, then looked at the Sun and Moon Token in his hand.

Although he could directly contact Lu Ping’an through the Sun and Moon Two Instruments Profound Light Mirror, using the token as an identification anchor point.

But now he was testing the communication between these ‘Sun and Moon Token’ terminals.

“Ding-dong!”

The Sun and Moon Token in his hand flowed with light. Lu Changsheng transmitted a message through the token, established communication with Lu Ping’an’s token, and then shouted: “Ping’an.”

“Huh?”

Lu Ping’an on 碧云 Peak was startled when he heard the voice coming from the token: “Dad?”

“Yes, this is the communication token refined by your father. It can be used for real-time communication.”

Lu Changsheng said to his son as if he were making a phone call.

After speaking, he continued to turn on the spirit’s function, picture transmission.

Instantly, a palm-sized image projection appeared on the token in his hand, showing Lu Ping’an’s bewildered appearance.

“Dad, what’s going on?”

Lu Ping’an looked at the picture formed by the token in his hand, very confused.

The cultivation world has communication talismans, mother-child induction talismans, and image-retaining stones.

But he had never seen this kind of real-time communication that was neither voice transmission nor image retention.

“This is a communication token refined by your father. It temporarily has these two functions: transmitting information and pictures.”

Lu Changsheng said with a smile.

Knowing that the basic functions were fine, he then looked at the Sun and Moon Two Instruments Profound Light Mirror and said: “Awu, will this kind of information processing cause a burden on you?”

“No.”

The spirit girl appeared and said expressionlessly.

“If similar information, tens of thousands of interactions, appear at the same time, will there be a burden?”

Lu Changsheng continued to ask.

How strong the communication ability of this Sun and Moon Token is mainly depends on the Sun and Moon Two Instruments Profound Light Mirror server.

“As long as it’s within the observation range, there is no problem with information transmission, but continuous picture transmission will increase the consumption of spiritual power.”

Awu said so.

“Just spiritual power consumption, huh…”

Lu Changsheng nodded thoughtfully.

What he was most worried about before was the data transmission process. Once the number of people increased, whether the spirit and the Sun and Moon Two Instruments Profound Light Mirror could accurately and instantly transmit and process the data.

Now it seems that this spirit is much more powerful than he imagined.

“If each token is marked, can you judge and process it immediately?”

Lu Changsheng continued to ask.

Now there are only two Sun and Moon Tokens, so communication is naturally simple.

But if every Lu family disciple has one, it needs to be marked for quick communication, commonly known as ‘address book’.

Moreover, the token’s identification also has anti-counterfeiting encryption functions.

Only the bloodline and mana aura recorded by the identification can activate the token, in case it falls into the hands of others.

This is also the reason why Lu Changsheng didn’t engrave his name and the words Bi Hu Mountain when refining this token.

“Yes, but it will increase the consumption of spiritual power every time you have to judge.”

Awu continued to say.

As a Spirit Treasure of Heavens, whether it’s itself or the spirit, the effects are beyond imagination.

It’s just that now it is controlled by Lu Changsheng, the spiritual veins, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth are limited, resulting in the power and effect being restricted everywhere.

“That’s not a problem.”

Lu Changsheng immediately injected Lu Ping’an’s blood and mana into the Sun and Moon Two Instruments Profound Light Mirror, so that Awu remembered his aura and marked the Sun and Moon Token.

If Lu Ping’an’s mana is not injected, it cannot be used.

And it will warn the Sun and Moon Two Instruments Profound Light Mirror, indicating that the Sun and Moon Token has fallen into the hands of others.

Afterwards, Lu Changsheng also arranged a ‘self-destruction’ restriction in the token, which could be connected to the Sun and Moon Token through Awu to trigger this self-destruction restriction.

After studying for several days, Lu Changsheng looked at the Sun and Moon Token in his hand.

Mana was injected, and an address book appeared.

Except for Lu Ping’an, the others are blank users.

These blank users are the information of subsequent new Lu family disciples, which will be updated by Awu to facilitate contact between tokens.

In order to avoid mutual disturbance between Lu family disciples, Lu Changsheng also added a restriction to the token, which can be used to choose several states such as ‘online’, ‘busy’, ‘closed door’, and ‘resting’.

After doing these, Lu Changsheng even wanted to add a Moments function.

After Lu family disciples go out to experience, they can share their insights and experiences in Moments, or upload the situation of beheading monsters, encounter unknown natural treasures, or even secret realm situations, and so on.

It’s just that each of these functions will increase the consumption of the Sun and Moon Two Instruments Profound Light Mirror.

Considering the situation of his own spiritual veins, Lu Changsheng temporarily put it aside.

He plans to consider these functions after the family’s spiritual vein level comes up.

At that time, he can even start a live broadcast and let others watch.

“Go, the world is very big, go and see more. If you miss home, come back.”

After completing the Lu Family Communication Token 1.0, Lu Changsheng patted his son’s shoulder and said with a smile.

“Dad, don’t worry, your child will definitely not let you down!”

Lu Ping’an looked at the father in front of him, his eyes turned red, and then he knelt down to say goodbye.

He was just preparing to go out to experience, and his father spent a lot of resources to protect him and break through, and also gave him the ‘Great Wilderness Dragon Spine’ and other heaven and earth spiritual objects.

Even before going out, he was still worried, and worked so hard for so long to refine the Sun and Moon Token for himself.

These things made his heart heavy, full of heavy fatherly love and a sense of responsibility.

“Although your father hopes that you will achieve something and reach the Golden Core and Nascent Soul stages in the future, I hope you will be safe and sound.”

Lu Changsheng looked at the son in front of him, helped him up, and said softly.

Unconsciously, the baby who was once held in his hand, the child who asked himself if he couldn’t cultivate without spiritual roots, had grown to this point.

Next, how far he can go depends on himself.

“Dad, don’t worry.”

Lu Ping’an said, then put on the mask Lu Changsheng gave him, and quietly left Bi Hu Mountain.

He has a small reputation in the Jiang Kingdom, so it is inconvenient to walk around with his true face.

After leaving Bi Hu Mountain, Lu Ping’an did not go directly to the Heavenly Sword Sect to find Qin Yi.

Instead, he came to Ruyi County again, paid homage to his mother, and then came to a mountain forest, preparing to say goodbye to Su Jiu’er.

He used to visit this girl who was like a next-door sister when he came to see his mother.

It’s just that the girl’s mother-in-law doesn’t allow her to go out, and doesn’t allow him to bring people over.

Otherwise, how could he not introduce his sister Lu Linghe to get to know her? The two are equally ignorant of the world and should get along well.

“Huh? Jiu’er, Jiu’er!”

When Lu Ping’an came to the small bamboo forest where Su Jiu’er lived, he did not see Su Jiu’er’s figure.

He searched the mountain forest and then found a sachet in the valley where they often went.

Inside was a letter stating that she was leaving.

Originally, she wanted to wait for Lu Ping’an to come back to say goodbye, but her mother-in-law was in a hurry to leave and couldn’t wait, so she had to leave without saying goodbye, very sorry.

Thank you Ping’an brother for your company these years, Jiu’er wishes Ping’an brother all the best, carefree, and a divine couple with Sister Qin.

“."

Lu Ping’an looked at the letter in his hand, his heart filled with mixed feelings.

After so many years of getting along, he knew that Su Jiu’er’s background was not simple, and she was not a Jiang Kingdom cultivator, and one day she might leave.

But he didn’t expect that the other party would just happen to leave when he was preparing to go out and practice in seclusion, and the two didn’t even have time to say goodbye.

“Jiu’er, I wish you all the best.”

Lu Ping’an took a deep breath, said softly, then put the letter into the sachet and strode away.

This girl who had innocent thoughts about him, but had always been regarded as a sister by him, he liked her very much, but the two were destined to be just passers-by.

After Lu Ping’an left, Lu Changsheng began to busy himself with serious matters.

He did not go to Qingyun Sect, but called Xiao Xi Yue to Bi Hu Mountain to help her cultivate together with Lu Miaoge.

The other party wants to accommodate the ‘Yin-Yang Dao Seed’, and can learn more from Lu Miaoge’s ‘Taiyi Dao Seed’, so this dual cultivation process is very worthy of exchange.

In this way, in the blink of an eye, three months passed.

[Congratulations to the host for completing the Qi Induction for one hundred descendants and stepping into the Immortal Path, obtaining the bloodline effect: Descendant Comprehension increased by 3%, obtaining a Advanced Lottery opportunity!]

“One hundred Qi Refinements?”

Lu Changsheng felt quite emotional when he heard this system prompt.

In his early years, he gave birth frequently, but as his cultivation improved, he gradually slowed down in this aspect.

He still remembers that when seventy sons and daughters were refining Qi, it was twenty years ago.

“System, lottery.”

After a slight sigh, Lu Changsheng silently recited in his heart and conducted the lottery.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Cultivation Method !]

[The reward has been distributed to the system space, the host can check it at any time]
