Chapter 686: The Five Poisons Sect Leader was shocked!

碧湖 Mountain.

Xumi Grotto-heaven.

“Husband.”

Although she knew through the [Sun Moon Two Instruments Profound Light Mirror] that the crisis at White Tiger Mountain had been resolved, Lu Miaoyun still stepped forward to inquire about the situation when she saw Lu Changsheng.

“Don’t worry, it’s been resolved.”

Lu Changsheng held his wife’s slender hand and said softly, telling her about the general situation.

Lu Miaoyun was stunned, not expecting that the enemy would come from a hegemonic force in Liang Country, which bordered Yue Country.

“Husband, should this matter be reported to the Qingyun Sect?”

Although Lu Miaoyun felt that their family could handle it, she believed that reporting it to the Qingyun Sect, and then having the Qingyun Sect report it to the Heavenly Sword Sect, would be more prudent.

“No need. If the Qingyun Sect asks, just say that an unknown evil cultivator wanted to seize the Nine Nether Springs. I rushed over safely and forced the enemy back.”

Lu Changsheng was still preparing to use Ying’er to deal with Beast God Mountain, so why would he report it to the Qingyun Sect?

Moreover, reporting it to the Qingyun Sect and having people from the Heavenly Sword Sect come to investigate afterward, who knew if it would cause unnecessary trouble.

“Okay.”

Hearing her husband say this, Lu Miaoyun was relieved and didn’t ask any further questions.

“Xumi, you keep an eye on her for now.”

Lu Changsheng lightly raised his hand, and the unconscious Ying’er appeared, tossing her to the Xumi Tree King.

Although theoretically, with the Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch’s Dharma body being beheaded, the Supreme Elder of Beast God Mountain, Nine Spirits True Monarch, would not cross Yue Country to Jiang Country for a mere Core Formation personal guard.

But for the sake of prudence, Lu Changsheng still did not hang Ying’er outside the Xumi Tree King.

Otherwise, by using the token on her body or her Beast God Mountain’s mana aura to try to lure them, as long as the people from Beast God Mountain dared to come, Xumi could suppress them all below the Nascent Soul stage and imprison them in the Xumi Grotto-heaven.

“Xumi’s growth is still not enough.”

Lu Changsheng looked at the Xumi Tree King in front of him and sighed inwardly.

In his early years, Xumi, who was invincible below the Nascent Soul stage, could be said to be his absolute guardian.

But as time passed and he gradually came into contact with Nascent Soul stage cultivators and forces, Xumi’s invincibility below the Nascent Soul stage was no longer sufficient.

“If I want to cultivate Xumi to the fourth rank, the greatest difficulty is still the spiritual vein…”

If the Xumi Tree King wanted to reach the fourth rank through normal growth, it would probably take tens of thousands of years.

Even if Lu Changsheng possessed the [Ten Thousand Spirits Bottle], it would be very difficult to cultivate it to the fourth rank.

The only way was to obtain rapid growth through the feedback from the heaven and earth within its body.

But now, Lu Changsheng himself had not yet settled on a fourth-rank spiritual land for his own Nascent Soul breakthrough, so how could he cultivate the spiritual vein of the Xumi Grotto-heaven to the fourth rank?

“The boat will naturally straighten when it reaches the bridge. If I improve the [Dragon Seeking Technique] later, there might be a way.”

Although Meng Wuhen had once said that a fourth-rank spiritual vein gathered the luck of one side.

If it was destroyed and the origin of the spiritual vein was extracted, one would inevitably encounter the backlash of luck and be plagued by misfortune.

But the cultivation world had many methods. A second-rank Dragon Seeking Technique could survey the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and extract spiritual veins. A fourth-rank Dragon Seeking Technique might possess the method of carrying mountains and chasing the sun, and moving spiritual veins.

Not to mention the distant future, with Lu Changsheng’s current supernatural powers and mana, he could try to move small first-rank and second-rank spiritual veins, without having to slowly extract their origin as he did in his early years.

It was just that doing so would cause a great commotion, leading to the collapse of the mountains and the severance of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the original location of the spiritual vein.

“The Qingyun Sect, Golden Sun Sect, and Heavenly Sword Sect, these forces have obviously all moved spiritual veins, otherwise, how could they possess such large spiritual lands through normal cultivation?”

Lu Changsheng had been to the Qingyun Sect, Golden Sun Sect, and Heavenly Sword Sect.

In addition to their main peak spiritual veins, they also had many third-rank branch veins.

If they relied on the natural growth of the spiritual veins and the cultivation of Spirit Source Pearls, it was unknown how much time and natural treasures it would take.

Therefore, they most likely possessed methods in this area, thereby improving their own spiritual lands.

After entrusting Ying’er to Xumi’s care, Lu Changsheng continued to return to the Qingyun Sect to visit Zhao Qingqing.

She had returned from the front line a year ago. Now that her status in the sect had improved, as long as she broke through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, she could be promoted to an outer sect elder.

With Lu Changsheng’s current resources, helping her break through the bottleneck from the mid-stage to the late stage of Foundation Establishment was naturally easy.

But considering that breaking through to the late stage with a second-rank high-grade Stage Breaking Pill would have a certain impact on future Core Formation, almost cutting off her possibility of Core Formation, Lu Changsheng still helped her condense her mana through dual cultivation.

Several days later, after Lu Changsheng and Zhao Qingqing had warmed their feelings, they returned to Bihu Mountain together to visit their son, Lu Qingyue.

This son, with the help of the [Profound Heaven Spirit Vine] and the [Six-Eyed Bodhi Seed], had successfully condensed a perfect Dao foundation, and was one of the current geniuses of the Lu family.

“Father, Mother.”

Lu Qingyue possessed a Green Wood body and cultivated the 《Precious Cauldron Medicine King Sutra》, which had the effect of preserving youth. He still looked like a teenager, wearing a green shirt and robe, like a fragrant orchid and jade tree, with a thriving temperament, somewhat similar to Lu Changsheng.

“Okay.”

Lu Changsheng and Zhao Qingqing cared about their son’s situation, asking him what his plans were.

“Now that my spells have achieved some success, I want to go out and gain experience…”

Lu Qingyue glanced at his parents, and then spoke.

Although the 《Precious Cauldron Medicine King Sutra》 was biased towards alchemy, farming, and health preservation, most cultivators were unwilling to be content with the status quo, wanting to go out and gain experience, obtain opportunities and adventures, so as to soar into the sky.

“Since that’s the case, you can go to Qingxuan Mountain and train with your Qingxuan brother and the others, to adapt first.”

Lu Changsheng did not reject his children going out to gain experience, and even encouraged it very much.

After all, only by going out can one grow quickly, especially these children with excellent talents.

“Yue’er has only just broken through to Foundation Establishment, and has never been far from home. Wouldn’t it be too dangerous to go to the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range? Why not hone his skills in the Qingyun territory for a while?”

Since the wasteland reclamation war began, Zhao Qingqing had been in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range, and had seen countless deaths.

Not to mention that her son had only just broken through to Foundation Establishment, even Foundation Establishment late-stage cultivators had died countless times.

“A man has ambitions in all directions. Since Qingyue is interested, let him go out and venture out. Besides, Qingxuan and the others are there.”

Lu Changsheng held Zhao Qingqing’s slender hand and said.

Although Foundation Establishment cultivators were like ants to him now.

But in the area around Bihu Mountain, they were still ancestor-level figures.

As long as they didn’t do anything too stupid, and he gave them a few talismans to protect themselves, if they still encountered danger along the way, it could only be said that they were not suitable for going out to cultivate.

Seeing Lu Changsheng say this, Zhao Qingqing had no objections either.

During the wasteland reclamation war, she and Lu Xingyue had seen Lu Qingxuan many times, and knew that he was a person who could stand alone.

With him there, her son should be fine.

Moreover, in addition to Lu Qingxuan, Qingxuan Mountain also had several Lu family Foundation Establishment cultivators, which was considered a small force.

“Thank you, Father, and please rest assured, Mother.”

Seeing this, Lu Qingyue happily cupped his hands towards his parents.

Originally, Lu Changsheng wanted to catch up with Chu Qingyi, but she had already gone to the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range to garrison.

Thinking that he still had a pair of concubines and children in Yan Yu Fang City, and had rarely gone there in the past two years, he thought about it and decided to take a trip.

Now coming to Yan Yu Fang City again, not only casual cultivators, but even Yan Lan and Yu Fei, the two sisters, showed restraint and respect in their expressions when they saw Lu Changsheng.

The two women had grown all the way from casual cultivators to this point, and they valued the law of the jungle and the respect for elders and inferiors even more.

In his early years, when Lu Changsheng was only a Foundation Establishment cultivator, they only had a few points of respect.

But as Lu Changsheng revealed his Core Formation and became a high and mighty Core Formation True Person, they had a reverence that came from their bones.

“Father.”

The three children of the two women were all adults.

But because they had lived in Yan Yu Fang City for a long time, it was difficult for them to integrate into Bihu Mountain, and they rarely saw Lu Changsheng on weekdays, so their understanding of this father came more from their mothers and rumors, and their eyes were filled with awe.

“Okay.”

Lu Changsheng looked at the three children in front of him, softly caring about their situation, and then looked at Yan Lan’s child and said, “Xiao Han, how confident are you in breaking through to Foundation Establishment?”

He could see that this son’s foundation was strong, and there was no problem with a flawless Dao foundation.

“Reporting to Father, this child is absolutely confident in breaking through to Foundation Establishment, but I have heard that above the flawless Dao foundation, there is also a perfect Dao foundation, so I want to try!”

Lu Yanhai cupped his hands and said.

He possessed a second-grade spiritual root, and his physical body and meridians were different from ordinary people, so he could have broken through to Foundation Establishment long ago.

But his mother told him that his future goal was to form a Core, so he must lay a good foundation!

“If you want to break through to a perfect Dao foundation, you are still lacking some experience. I have a Soul Grasping Grass here. After you take it, I will help you refine it, which can increase your chances of success.”

Now, a perfect Dao foundation was not difficult for Lu Changsheng.

As long as he was willing, unless the talent and aptitude were too low, it could be created with resources.

His son in front of him had good talent, and holding a few points of compensation thoughts, Lu Changsheng was also willing to give some resources.

“Soul Grasping Grass! ?”

Lu Yanhai was not clear, but Yan Lan and Yu Fei had heard of it. This was a very rare third-grade spiritual herb, which had the effect of improving talent and aptitude and condensing the divine sense after taking it.

Under normal circumstances, Qi Refining cultivators could not refine it at all.

But with Lu Changsheng, a Core Formation True Person, helping to refine it, then his talent and foundation would definitely be further improved.

“Han’er, quickly thank your father.”

Yan Lan quickly said to her son.

Lu Yanhai quickly cupped his hands and thanked him, while Lu Yanyu and Lu Yanming next to him looked envious.

“You guys cultivate well. When you break through to Foundation Establishment, I will also have gifts for you.”

Lu Changsheng looked at the two children and said.

After a pause, he continued to add: “Your eldest brother returned from training not long ago. You can go to Bihu Mountain to visit him and ask him for advice on cultivation when you have time.”

Now that Lu Pingan had returned home, he could help teach and guide the children of the family in their cultivation.

Lu Changsheng planned to give the Profound Cave Treasure Mirror to Lu Pingan.

In this way, he could also use teaching and guidance to consolidate and accumulate his cultivation knowledge, and understand by analogy.

“Eldest Brother!”

The three were all shocked when they heard this.

In the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family, in addition to the most famous Old Ancestor Lu Changsheng and Lady Lu Miaoge, the remaining few were the Lu family’s eldest son Lu Pingan, Talisman Fairy Lu Wangshu, and Sword Immortal Lu Qingshan, who had joined the Yue Country’s Golden Sun Sect a few years ago and killed a third-rank demon king.

Therefore, the three had all heard of their eldest brother’s reputation.

During his early Foundation Establishment stage, he ambushed the Pseudo-Core cultivator Ling Zixiao, the matriarch of the Lu family, and captured the Pseudo-Core Old Ancestor of the Sima family in his mother’s Misty Rain Bazaar.

Afterward, in the Violet Abyss Secret Realm, he commanded the Lu family’s Dao soldiers and defeated Shangguan Jiuyang of the Divine Blade Shangguan family, shocking the Jiang Kingdom’s cultivation world and earning the nickname ‘Second Azure Phoenix True Monarch’ by those fond of gossip.

However, in recent decades, he suddenly disappeared without a trace, and no one knows where he went.

Some speculate that he broke through to the Core Formation stage and went out to train, while others guess that he entered secluded cultivation, failed to form his core, and died.

“Father, I heard that big brother was only one step away from breaking through to Core Formation in his early years. Has he returned after succeeding?”

Lu Yanyu asked curiously.

“You will know when the time comes.”

Lu Changsheng smiled and didn’t answer.

Beside them, Yu Fei hurriedly transmitted her voice to her daughter, telling her not to ask too much about such matters, as they were family secrets.

The Heavenly Talisman Lu family was already attracting too much attention, with three Core Formation cultivators and a Tier 3 demon king.

If the family produced another Core Formation True Monarch, they would become even more prominent and be feared by the upper sect, Azure Cloud.

Evening.

Afterwards!

Afterwards!

Afterwards!

Lu Changsheng held Yanlan, who was as soft and limp as mud, along with her sister, Yu Fei.

His hand wandered over Yanlan’s beautiful face, lithe figure, and wheat-colored skin, and he suddenly asked, “Lan’er, if I remember correctly, you’re not even one hundred and fifty years old yet, right?”

Yanlan’s talent was excellent, and her ability to reach this point as a rogue cultivator was unquestionable, so Lu Changsheng was willing to give her a hand.

“Mm, nine years to go…”

Yanlan naturally knew what being one hundred and fifty years old meant to a peak Foundation Establishment cultivator, and her heart trembled before she whispered.

Yu Fei, beside her, also trembled, her beautiful eyes looking at her sister and Lu Changsheng with a mixture of surprise and joy.

“Soon, the City Lord will hold a banquet, and several Tier 3 demon cores will be released at that time. I’ll see if I can purchase one for you. Focus on your cultivation these years and prepare well.”

Lu Changsheng said softly to Yanlan.

Although the latter had good talent, she was a rogue cultivator in her early years with limited resources and a general foundation.

Her breakthrough to the late stage of Foundation Establishment relied on the Tier 2 Advanced Breakthrough Pill that he provided when he proposed marriage to Yu Fei, so the probability of breaking through to True Core was minimal.

Unless he fully provided her with Core Condensation Pills, Five Elements Spiritual Fruits, and other Core Formation spiritual objects.

However, since he had only taken Yanlan and Yu Fei as concubines for their benefit, he did not plan to expend so many resources to nurture them.

“Husband, wouldn’t this… wouldn’t this be too extravagant?”

Yanlan trembled upon hearing this, and said with a face full of surprise and trepidation.

To Lu Changsheng, a Pseudo-Core was only considered average.

But to her, a Pseudo-Core was already a luxury, something unattainable!

Even though she knew that Lu Changsheng was a Tier 3 talisman master and the Deputy City Lord of Great Dream Immortal City, who could obtain Tier 3 demon cores, she did not dare to hope that he would help her obtain a Tier 3 demon core to break through to the Pseudo-Core stage.

After all, even if she and her sister were sold, they wouldn’t be worth a Tier 3 demon core.

“As long as you can break through, it won’t be a waste, but I can’t guarantee that I can definitely obtain one.”

Lu Changsheng said with a smile, not making it seem too easy.

“Thank you, Husband!”

Even so, Yanlan still expressed her gratitude with tears in her eyes.

Yu Fei, beside her, expressed her gratitude to Lu Changsheng even more with her actions.

After all, her relationship with Yanlan was better than that of many biological sisters, and now that she saw her sister had hope of forming her core, she was also happy for her.

“If you want to express your gratitude, then have a few more children.”

Lu Changsheng turned over and got up.

He was nurturing Yanlan not only because she was his concubine and her breakthrough would be of some help to his family, but also because there were not many wives and concubines who could get pregnant.

After all, it was very, very difficult, almost impossible, to take Core Formation female cultivators as concubines; he could only rely on nurturing them himself.

The two women immediately thought of their husband’s early rumors.

He loved marrying wives and taking concubines to have children and grandchildren.

“Husband~”

Yanlan couldn’t be said to like getting pregnant, feeling that one was enough, but Yu Fei really wanted to have more, to give birth to sons and daughters with extraordinary talents like Lu Ping’an, Lu Qingshan, and Lu Wangshu.

It was just that the opportunities to see Lu Changsheng these years were really not many.

And with one being a Foundation Establishment cultivator and the other a Core Formation cultivator, it was not so easy to get pregnant.

For a time, the cave was filled with the joy of spring.

Because he had things to do, Lu Changsheng didn’t spend too much time cultivating in Misty Rain Bazaar.

After staying for seven days, he returned to Azure Lake Mountain and began to seclude himself to recast and upgrade his natal magic treasure, the Yin-Yang Diagram.

At the same time, news about the Vast Sand Illusion Domain spread from the Endless Desert, reaching the Jiang Kingdom, Yue Kingdom, and other surrounding countries.

As a Nascent Soul-level force in the Jin Kingdom, the Master of the Five Poisons Sect received the relevant news immediately.

“True Monarch Yangming annihilated the Beast God Mountain’s Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch’s Dharma Body and killed True Monarch Zi Cang!?”

The Master of the Five Poisons Sect, dressed in a luxurious purple-red dress, with a silver hairpin in her hair, her delicate and dignified face filled with shock.

Having fought True Monarch Yangming before, she had witnessed the strength of the other party.

He possessed various methods, comparable to a Nascent Soul cultivator.

The most amazing thing was that the other party cultivated both Dharma and Body, and his physical body ignored and was immune to her magical poison.

Otherwise, defeating her would have come at a heavy price.

But she never expected that only a few years had passed, and True Monarch Yangming could kill Nascent Soul cultivators, even killing two of them in a row.

Especially since True Monarch Zi Cang’s Nascent Soul spirit body was also destroyed.

Although the intelligence information indicated that True Monarch Zi Cang was killed jointly by True Monarch Yangming and True Monarch Azure Phoenix, it was still enough to prove his strength.

“Even if he broke through from the seventh level of Core Formation to the ninth level of Core Formation, it wouldn’t be possible to improve like this…”

Because Lu Changsheng had plundered her magic power source, A Youduo knew that True Monarch Yangming was only at the seventh level of Core Formation when he fought her.

It was precisely because she knew this that she was shocked.

“The Lord of the Holy Light Dynasty…”

Over the years, the Master of the Five Poisons Sect often wondered if True Monarch Yangming was deceiving her back then.

After all, the Lord of the Central Continent Holy Emperor, walking the path of reincarnation, the Supreme Dragon Emperor Dao Body, the Yin-Yang Great Dao, the Great Dao Nascent Soul, were all more and more unbelievable and inconceivable.

She had searched through many ancient books but could not find any related records.

But now, with the spread of this news, A Youduo believed it.

She completely believed it, without the slightest doubt!

After all, an ordinary Nascent Soul old monster seizing and re-cultivating could never do such a thing, to defy a Nascent Soul True Monarch as a Core Formation cultivator, and even kill two of them in a row.

Only an existence beyond the Nascent Soul level, a Spirit Transformation True Venerate!

“According to the information, the Lord used some kind of life-burning secret technique at the time. I wonder if his current situation is dangerous…”

Although the intelligence information indicated that True Monarch Yangming was very likely in love with True Monarch Azure Phoenix and was willing to sacrifice his life for her, A Youduo guessed why True Monarch Yangming did this.

The Supreme Dragon Emperor Dao Body!

The Supreme Yin-Yang Great Dao!

The other party wanted to use True Monarch Azure Phoenix to cultivate the Dragon Emperor Dao Body and the Yin-Yang Great Dao.

“The Lord is a Spirit Transformation True Venerate, the reincarnation of the Lord of the Holy Light Dynasty. It is absolutely impossible for him to sacrifice his life for a woman.”

The Master of the Five Poisons Sect looked at the message jade slip in her hand and pondered for a moment before saying, “Someone, pass down my order. From today onwards, seal off the mountain gate and report any situation or movement to me!”

When she and True Monarch Yangming came out of the Myriad Demons Abyss that year, they were seen by True Monarch Nether Fiend, who spread news of the two of them.

Although it would not have too much of an impact on her, now that True Monarch Yangming had caused such a shocking commotion, it was likely that some Nascent Soul cultivators would want to find True Monarch Yangming through her.

Not to mention the distant ones, True Monarch Nether Fiend would not let True Monarch Yangming go.

Especially since True Monarch Yangming had killed True Monarch Heavenly Silkworm and formed a grudge with Beast God Mountain, and True Monarch Nether Fiend was very close to Beast God Mountain.

So, under such circumstances, she also had to increase her vigilance as much as possible.

Walking out of the main hall, looking at the Five Poisons Sect in front of her, for some reason, a few thoughts of True Monarch Yangming unexpectedly surged in her heart.

But thinking that the latter was now very likely dual cultivating the Yin-Yang Great Dao with True Monarch Azure Phoenix, a few jealous thoughts surged again.

The Master of the Five Poisons Sect’s heart suddenly paused, knowing that this was the Seven Severing Love Gu affecting her.

Although the two were far apart, she could suppress this emotion, but she would still inevitably be affected.

Especially after seeing the intelligence information about True Monarch Yangming killing the Nascent Soul just now, the emotion in her heart surged uncontrollably.

However, thinking about True Monarch Yangming’s situation, she did not suppress this feeling.

Knowing that once suppressed, unless she lifted the love Gu herself, the emotion would erupt like a tide when they met again in the future.

Unlike the Master of the Five Poisons Sect, the Sect Master of the Yin Nether Ghost Sect and the Heavenly Corpse Sect were stunned when they saw this news.

Especially the Yin Nether Ghost King.

Previously, after True Monarch Nether Fiend returned, he immediately entered secluded cultivation to heal his injuries, ordering the Yin Nether Ghost King to collect news about True Monarch Yangming and True Monarch Azure Phoenix, and was not clear about the details of the secret realm.

He never expected that True Monarch Yangming would be so fierce, actually killing two Nascent Soul True Monarchs in the Vast Sand Illusion Domain, and being so close to True Monarch Azure Phoenix.

What if the two of them recovered from their injuries or broke through to Nascent Soul and came to the Yin Nether Ghost Sect to take revenge?

He immediately went to pay his respects to True Monarch Nether Fiend, wanting to ask what was going on and whether the intelligence information was false.

“My Heavenly Corpse Sect doesn’t seem to have any grudges with this True Monarch Yangming, right?”

Although the Sect Master of the Heavenly Corpse Sect wanted to kill True Monarch Yangming in his early years, he gave up the idea after seeing this intelligence.

Unless True Monarch Yangming was seriously injured and surrounded by many people, he would choose to go up and finish him off.

Otherwise, he would never want to deepen the hatred.
