Chapter 799: Kunpeng body, dew receiving plate (two in one)
“If it’s refined, it’s refined,” Lu Changsheng said with a calm expression, waving his hand, without the slightest hint of anger. “You should adapt to your current state; we’ll return to Bihu Mountain later.”
His son had just completed the demonic embryo transformation, and his essence was surging like an ocean. If he were to appear in public, he would be too conspicuous.
“Thank you, Father.” Lu Quanzhen was secretly amazed to see that his father didn’t care about the Kunpeng cub at all.
One must know, this was a True Spirit cub.
Many Nascent Soul cultivators in the Star Constellation Sea coveted and fought over it, yet his father completely disregarded it, treating it as nothing special.
He handed the kunpeng egg treasure to Lu Changsheng and stated that the Kunpeng eggshell was a top-grade Spirit Material, which could be used to refine armor, defensive Magic Treasure, and also had the effect of isolating Heavenly Secrets.
It could be said that such a True Spirit cub was a treasure from head to toe.
“You can see what you can use. Anything you don’t need can be left at Lu.”
Although all the treasures before him were valuable, Old Ancestor Lu was not short of Magic Treasure.
Instead, his son, Lu Quanzhen, whose cultivation and strength had greatly improved, needed some suitable Magic Treasure to protect himself.
After giving a few instructions, Lu Changsheng left with his daughter, Lu Linghe.
However, he was now eager to check his son’s Dao Body situation and perform a rare draw.
So he told Lu Linghe to find Ling Zixiao and Lu Baixi, while he quickly returned to his Immortal Cave.
“System!” Lu Changsheng silently chanted in his mind, opening his son Lu Quanzhen’s System panel.
【Name: Lu Quanzhen】 【Lifespan: 116 / 813】 【Talent: First-Grade Spiritual Root, Kunpeng Body (Dao Body)】 【Cultivation: Core Formation Sixth Layer】 【Ability: Spell Compatibility (89%)】
“What!?” Lu Changsheng was stunned and a little bewildered when he saw his son’s attribute panel.
Was this still his son, Lu Quanzhen?
He remembered that in earlier years, when his son broke through Core Formation, relying on Longevity Pill, his total Lifespan was only over three hundred years.
But now, it had directly increased to eight hundred thirteen years!
One must know that a Core Formation True Person’s Lifespan was five hundred years.
Except for some top-tier health cultivation Cultivators, even with Longevity Fruit and Longevity Pill, it was difficult to surpass six hundred years.
Like himself, before breaking through the Fourth-Order Body Refining, possessing the Chaos Body, Yin Yang Great Dao Golden Core, and consuming First-Order, Second-Order, Three-Tier Longevity Pill and other Heaven And Earth Treasure, his total Lifespan was only over seven hundred years.
His son, Lu Quanzhen, directly reached over eight hundred years!
If this were to spread, it would be absolutely astonishing, shocking the entire Nanhua Cultivation World!
Not only that.
His son’s Spiritual Root was previously Fourth-Grade, now directly elevated to First-Grade.
His cultivation rose from Core Formation Third Layer to Core Formation Sixth Layer.
In terms of Body Refining, although the System didn’t display it, Lu Changsheng knew that the improvement must be much greater than the cultivation increase!
“Demonic Embryo Transformation… This is a true life transformation, a life leap.” Lu Changsheng sighed with emotion and amazement.
However, compared to his son’s Kunpeng Body, Lu Changsheng felt that the improvement in Spiritual Root was completely insignificant.
After all, after a Cultivator breaks through Core Formation, unless they have a Heavenly Spiritual Root, the influence of the Spiritual Root on cultivation has already decreased to a certain extent.
It is far inferior to the potential and Foundation brought by a Perfect Dao Foundation, an Immortal Golden Core, and a Dao Body.
Now that his son possessed a Dao Body, whether his Spiritual Root was First-Grade or Fourth-Grade made little difference.
“However, the Dao Body truly seems to be as the legends say, without grades of high, middle, or low.” Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow when he saw only the words “Dao Body” after Kunpeng Body.
Records about Dao Bodies in the Cultivation World were extremely scarce.
In earlier years, Honglian had mentioned a theory that Dao Bodies did not have upper, middle, or lower grades.
Except for certain renowned supreme Dao Bodies, most Dao Bodies had no distinction of strength.
Or rather, the strength of a Dao Body depended entirely on its owner.
It was possible for the same Physique to manifest vastly different powers in the hands of different individuals.
“I wonder how much difference there is between this Kunpeng Body and my Chaos Body.” Lu Changsheng took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and then sat cross-legged, intending to merge the Kunpeng Body into his Chaos Body!
“Fusion!” With a slight thought, in an instant, Lu Changsheng felt a Kunpeng awaken within his body, forming an immeasurable sea, stirring up endless waves, and agitating Heaven And Earth.
Then, it transformed into a Peng Bird, spreading its wings and soaring ninety thousand li high, as if it wanted to create Heaven And Earth and refine all things.
Vast!
Grand!
Boundless!
Irresistible!
Lu Changsheng had never felt this way during his earlier Spirit Body Fusion.
Then, with the help of the System, his Chaos Body, like a great sun furnace, began to refine this Kunpeng.
Gradually, Lu Changsheng gained a detailed understanding of his son Lu Quanzhen’s Kunpeng Body.
Based on the original Kunpeng Demon Body, all attributes had been comprehensively improved.
Furthermore, it gained affinity for the attributes of wind, water, Yin and Yang, and space.
It seemed ordinary.
But these attributes of wind, water, Yin and Yang, and space, in other places, each one was equivalent to a high-grade, or even top-grade Spirit Body!
It could be said that the principle of this Kunpeng Body was somewhat similar to Lu Changsheng’s Chaos Body, which was formed by fusing various Spirit Bodies.
It’s just that Lu Changsheng’s Chaos Body was broader, aiming to fuse all bodies and all Bloodlines!
The two Physiques had many conflicting aspects, and even with the System helping to balance them, choices had to be made to achieve perfect Fusion.
Lu Changsheng sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, trying his best to integrate the Yin and Yang and space abilities of the Kunpeng Body into his Chaos Body.
As for the three attributes of wind, water, and devouring, it didn’t matter if they were slightly weaker.
After all, he cultivated the Yin Yang Creation Scripture, but had never possessed a Yin and Yang Spirit Body.
Furthermore, due to the Dragon’s Roar Body and Pure Yang Body, his Chaos Body was somewhat imbalanced with an excess of Yang and deficiency of Yin. Now, if he fused the Kunpeng Body, his Yin Yang Creation Scripture would surely advance another level!
As for the space attribute, there was no need to elaborate.
This was one of the core methods of a Nascent Soul True Lord!
Although Lu Changsheng had gained some spatial talent from his grandson Lu XuanChong’s Ethereal Body and his daughter Mu Que’s Heavenly Phoenix Bloodline.
However, the improvement from these two was simply too little, completely incomparable to the Kunpeng Body’s spatial abilities!
Time passed bit by bit.
After an unknown period, Lu Changsheng opened his eyes, and Yin and Yang fish circulated deep within his pupils.
“Kunpeng Body, what a Kunpeng Body, it’s practically made for me!” Lu Changsheng felt his Chaos Body after fusing with the Kunpeng Body, and laughed heartily, feeling better than ever before.
The Kunpeng Body was in no way weaker than his Chaos Body.
Therefore, the Fusion of these two great Physiques brought him an unparalleled improvement!
Especially the Yin and Yang attribute of the Kunpeng Body.
Lu Changsheng lightly raised his palm, and Yin and Yang Magic Power circulated around him, outlining a mysterious and profound yin yang dao diagram.
He could clearly feel that his Magic Power was smoother and more natural than before, as if it had merged with the Yin and Yang of Heaven And Earth.
Whether it was the efficiency of refining Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, or the power and effect of casting Divine Abilities and spells such as Yin Yang One Qi Great Capturing Hand, Yin-Yang Profound Mystery Divine Light, and Yin Yang Chaos Millstone, all had received significant improvements!
In addition to the two main attributes of Yin and Yang and space, his Chaos Body also received comprehensive improvements in other aspects.
Especially the Indestructible Golden Body!
The Kunpeng Body also had a huge bonus in terms of Physical Body, possessing the characteristic of indestructibility!
Lu Changsheng could clearly feel that his Physical Body’s Qi and Blood, stamina, self-healing ability, and so on, had all increased by one Rank on their original basis.
“With my current strength, even without the Great Luo Sword Embryo and without using the Nine Treasures Wishful Bone, I can still directly suppress Nascent Soul cultivators!” Lu Changsheng felt the surging power throughout his body, feeling that with just a thought, he could form the Heavenly Dao Nascent Soul Opportunity and break through the Nascent Soul Bottleneck.
If it weren’t for a Dao Body offspring already in his womb, he would want to find a place to break through to the Nascent Soul right now!
At this moment, he was incredibly looking forward to his next child — Lu Yunxiao, the Sword Embryo Dao Body!
If his Chaos Body were to fuse with the Sword Embryo Dao Body, it would be equivalent to the Fusion of three great Dao Bodies!
At that time, Lu Changsheng dared not imagine how much his talent and Physique would improve!
As it was now, he even had a feeling that if he were to face Yun Wanchang’s Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation, he could directly withstand it with his Physical Body!
A moment later, Lu Changsheng calmed his emotions, sat cross-legged, and transformed all the Qi and Blood and Magic Power feedback from Lu Quanzhen’s demonic embryo transformation into his own cultivation.
His cultivation Realm had long since reached its peak, and this pure Magic Power, under the operation of his Cultivation Technique, condensed into a Yuan Dan above his Qi Sea Dan Lake.
This was precisely the Nascent Soul condensing secret art — Yin-Yang Yuan Dan Method!
When breaking through to the Nascent Soul, these Yuan Dan could be used to irrigate and nurture the Nascent Soul Spirit Body of the Yin Yang Great Dao Golden Core!
Although the System didn’t show it, through the feedback of Qi and Blood power, Lu Changsheng knew that his son Lu Quanzhen’s improvement in Physical Body far exceeded his Qi Refining cultivation.
His Physical Body should have Advanced from the quasi-Third-Order in earlier years to the Third-Order Late Stage.
This rate of improvement was simply astonishing!
However, this kind of improvement, for Lu Changsheng, who had already broken through to Fourth-Order Body Refining, was rather ordinary and far from enough to break through to the Fourth-Order Middle Stage.
“Alas, I didn’t have these conditions in my early years,” Lu Changsheng sighed with emotion, feeling both happy for his son and envious that his son had such a good father.
Unlike himself, who had relied on his own efforts step by step over the years.
However, fatherly love is like a mountain.
Wasn’t all his hard work and struggle precisely to provide his wives and children with a good environment, to help them avoid detours, and to spare them from enduring such hardships as he did?
“Come on, System, let me see the results of my efforts over these years! Draw!” Lu Changsheng silently chanted in his heart.
Instantly, the rare grand turntable slowly appeared and began to spin.
“Please, don’t be a Cultivation Technique!” Lu Changsheng watched the grand turntable before him, his eyes filled with anticipation and nervousness, not wanting his efforts to be too useless.
A moment later, the golden light stopped on the ‘Heaven And Earth Treasure’ section.
【Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining the exotic treasure: Dew-Collecting Plate!】 【Reward has been issued to the System space, Host can view it at any time】
A pale golden coiled dragon square zun pattern emerged from the draw plate, accompanied by a System prompt sound.
“Exotic treasure?” Lu Changsheng’s eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the Dew-Collecting Plate before him.
Although it wasn’t a Cultivation Technique.
As his horizons broadened, he gradually realized the drawbacks of exotic treasures.
That was, their flaws were very obvious.
Whether it was the demonic fiend curse life book he obtained in his early years, or the ten thousand spirit bottle, both gave him a feeling of being neither truly outstanding nor truly useless.
【Dew-Collecting Plate】 【Rank: Fifth-Order】 【Description: Forged by Heavenly Craftsmanship Daoist in imitation of ancient Heavenly Emperors, using Mount Shou red copper, Heavenly River Star Sand, and Nine Nether Profound Ice. It can gather the essence dew of Heaven And Earth, named Heavenly Dew. Heavenly Dew water can be consumed by all spirits, possessing incredible miraculous effects such as cleansing marrow and refining bones, strengthening the body, enhancing potential, and breaking through bottlenecks】
“Heavenly Dew? Can all spirits consume it?” Lu Changsheng frowned as he read the description of the Dew-Collecting Plate, thinking to himself that it was indeed as he had guessed, somewhat useless and of ordinary practicality.
After all, effects such as cleansing marrow and refining bones, strengthening the body, enhancing potential, and breaking through Bottlenecks could all be achieved through other Spirit Pills and wondrous medicines, and Heaven And Earth Treasure.
A Fifth-Order exotic treasure, yet it could only gather this kind of Heavenly Dew? Wasn’t this a pure waste?
However, thinking that the Dew-Collecting Plate was, after all, a Fifth-Order exotic treasure, Lu Changsheng still extracted it first to examine the details.
With a thought.
Instantly, a jade plate, half a person tall and several zhang wide, shaped like a coiled dragon supporting it, appeared before Lu Changsheng. Its entire body glowed with a clear, glazed light, and the surface of the plate seemed to have endless star trajectories faintly visible.
As the Dew-Collecting Plate appeared before him, Lu Changsheng gained a detailed understanding of this exotic treasure and the so-called Heavenly Dew.
Heavenly Dew, condensed from the essence of Heaven And Earth Origin.
Not only did it have the effects of cleansing marrow and refining bones, strengthening the body, and enhancing potential, but it could also detoxify all poisons, and like ten-thousand-year Spirit Milk, replenish Qi and Blood Magic Power, and even purify the Divine Soul.
Consuming Heavenly Dew had no side effects whatsoever.
Long-term consumption could also enhance talent and potential, and condense one’s Foundation!
Besides these effects, Heavenly Dew could also be used for Alchemy, Artifact Refining, and cultivating Spirit Plants and Spirit Beasts.
For example, when refining Medicinal Pill, simply adding Heavenly Dew could increase the effect by 30%, making every Medicinal Pill a top-grade one.
When Artifact Refining, Heavenly Dew could be used for quenching, improving the quality and spirituality of Magic Treasure.
There was even less need to mention cultivating Spirit Plants and Spirit Beasts; for instance, the most direct effect was to invigorate vitality, accelerate growth, and enhance potential!
“This Dew-Collecting Plate is much more comprehensive than the ten thousand spirit bottle.” Lu Changsheng looked at the Dew-Collecting Plate, which glowed with a glazed light, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
The ten thousand spirit bottle, as a Fifth-Order exotic treasure, could only be used to Cultivate Spirit Medicine and Spirit Plants.
However, the Heavenly Dew from the Dew-Collecting Plate before him could be used by Cultivators, for Alchemy, Artifact Refining, treasure refining, and so on.
It could only be said that Fifth-Order exotic treasures also had differences.
If the ten thousand spirit bottle was an ordinary Fifth-Order exotic treasure, then the Dew-Collecting Plate belonged to the top-tier exotic treasures among Fifth-Order ones.
However, compared to the ten thousand spirit bottle, this Dew-Collecting Plate had a drawback.
It condensed Heavenly Dew, unlike the ten thousand spirit bottle, which could be placed anywhere.
It must be in a place with abundant Heaven And Earth Spiritual Essence, and it would cause some commotion.
Moreover, according to the instructions, the Dew-Collecting Plate was currently in a normal state, and the Heavenly Dew it condensed was just ordinary Heavenly Dew.
To condense more Advanced Heavenly Dew, the Dew-Collecting Plate needed to be placed above a Spiritual Vein, preferably with a high platform or a towering pagoda built, and connected to Heaven And Earth through a Formation to help the Dew-Collecting Plate absorb Heaven And Earth Origin and condense Heavenly Dew.
Lu Changsheng was a little speechless.
If he wanted to condense Fourth-Order or Fifth-Order Heavenly Dew, he would need to build a towering platform, allowing the Dew-Collecting Plate to absorb the Heaven And Earth Origin within a million-li radius to condense Heavenly Dew.
But doing so would be clearly telling others that he possessed a top-tier treasure, wouldn’t it?
A Fifth-Order exotic treasure would likely attract Nascent Soul middle stage, or even Late Stage Cultivators to snatch it.
After all, according to the description, this Heavenly Dew was indeed extraordinary, possessing many incredible miraculous uses, and could be called a top-tier Legacy Spirit Treasure!
If a towering pagoda were built through a Fourth-Order Spiritual Vein, constantly condensing Heavenly Dew, it would be equivalent to having a continuous supply of rare Spirit Pills and wondrous medicines, and Heaven And Earth Spirit Materials entering his accounts every day.
“Let alone a Fourth-Order Spiritual Vein and a towering platform, even a slight disturbance will easily attract the covetousness of Nascent Soul cultivators.” Lu Changsheng looked at the Dew-Collecting Plate before him, shaking his head and sighing.
For instance, he had concealed the Xumi Tree King of Bihu Mountain with multiple grand Formations.
However, once the Dew-Collecting Plate condensed high-grade Heavenly Dew, it would be difficult to conceal with a Formation.
Even if a Third-Order Forbidden Grand Formation could conceal it, any passing Nascent Soul cultivator would be able to sense something amiss.
“However, when I break through to Nascent Soul and my Formation advances to Fourth-Order, I can consider it.” Lu Changsheng pondered in his heart.
Currently, he was still worried about Nascent Soul attacks.
But once he broke through to Nascent Soul, and set up a Fourth-Order Forbidden Grand Formation, wielding the Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror, he was confident he could kill even a Nascent Soul middle stage Cultivator!
As for Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivators, he had never seen one and dared not be certain.
However, in the Southern Wilderness Northern Region, he had not heard of any Family having a Nascent Soul Late Stage Great Cultivator presiding over it.
The main point was, if he acquired such a supreme treasure, he couldn’t just not use it, right?
Especially the various miraculous uses of Heavenly Dew, which would be of immense help to a Family power!
Just the effects of cleansing marrow and refining bones, condensing the Foundation, enhancing potential, and breaking through Bottlenecks, all without any side effects, would be enough to elevate the Lu Family disciples by one Rank.
And Advanced Heavenly Dew could also be used to temper his Lifebound Treasure, the Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror, or to enhance the effects of Medicinal Pills.
For example, currently, some Lu Family disciples with poorer talents would still fail when attempting Foundation Establishment.
But if there was Heavenly Dew, first refining the Heavenly Dew into the Foundation Establishment Pill, and then administering it through the Heavenly Dew, Lu Changsheng couldn’t even imagine how much of a waste one would have to be to fail a Breakthrough under such effects!
The same applied to Foundation Establishment Breakthrough Core Formation!
With Heavenly Dew, the probability of a Foundation Establishment Breakthrough Core Formation could be increased by twenty to thirty percent!
“Once I Breakthrough Nascent Soul, I will establish a high platform in Great Dream Immortal City to collect Heavenly Dew! If anyone dares to cause trouble, killing two Nascent Soul cultivators will make them behave!”
Lu Changsheng pondered, making a decision.
As long as he Breakthrough Nascent Soul, he was confident he could easily suppress those useless Nascent Soul cultivators, and even contend with Nascent Soul middle stage Cultivators!
By then, with several Nascent Soul cultivators from his Family overseeing, and a killing tool like the Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror, would they still not dare to use such a treasure on their own territory?
He recalled that when the total number of his children who Breakthrough Qi Refining Ninth Layer reached seventy, he received a normal draw.
At that time, there were many things to do, and it was only a normal draw, so Lu Changsheng hadn’t used it. Now, he immediately drew them all.
“Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Medicinal Pill: Spirit Fusion Pill!”
“Reward has been issued to the System Space. The Host can view it at any time.”
Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow when he saw this Medicinal Pill.
He naturally knew about the Spirit Fusion Pill; he had drawn one years ago and given it to Ling Zixiao to consume.
Although he was now a Third-Tier Advanced Alchemist and could refine Spirit Fusion Pills, the Spirit Medicine for such an unpopular Medicinal Pill was not easy to collect.
“Not bad.”
Lu Changsheng no longer held much hope for normal draws, thinking it was fine as long as it was useful.
Looking at the Dew-Collecting Plate in front of him, Lu Changsheng pondered for a moment, then raised his hand and put it into his sleeve, after which the Mi Chen Banner appeared.
Five-colored auspicious light flowed, creating ripples in space, and he appeared in the sky above Xuan Whale Island.
Lu Changsheng did not go to see the Rift Sea Mysterious Dragon Whale, but instead held the Mi Chen Banner and continued to fly towards the depths of the Great Dream Marsh.
A moment later, he arrived in an unmanned sea of clouds, his magic power surging as he held up the Dew-Collecting Plate.
In an instant, the Dew-Collecting Plate, resembling a coiled dragon tripod, seemed to come alive, its dragon mouth swallowing the Heaven And Earth Origin Qi from its surroundings.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh—”
Numerous Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and Heaven And Earth Spiritual Essence surged towards the glazed jade plate held high in Lu Changsheng’s hands, like a galaxy pouring down.
During this process, the Dew-Collecting Plate could be seen rising steadily, forming coiled dragon phantoms and flowing starlight.
“This is truly troublesome.”
After a quarter of an hour, Lu Changsheng felt that holding the Dew-Collecting Plate so foolishly was too awkward. With a slight thought, a three-headed, six-armed Buddha Demon phantom appeared behind him.
The Brahma Demon True Body expanded against the wind, then its six arms held the Dew-Collecting Plate, while Lu Changsheng formed hand seals, activating his Chaos Body.
In an instant, he became like a human-shaped Kunpeng, seemingly wanting to refine the Heaven and Earth, capturing the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and pouring it into the Dew-Collecting Plate.
Several days later, Lu Changsheng looked at the Dew-Collecting Plate in the hands of the Brahma Demon True Body and felt an incredibly rich life fluctuation.
Although it was only a tiny drop of liquid, it exuded an incomparably pure new life force and aura.
“Is this Heavenly Dew?!”
Lu Changsheng examined the azure, fragrant, crystal-clear liquid, then lightly raised his finger and sent it into his mouth.
There was no need to swallow; the Heavenly Dew melted directly in his mouth, spreading throughout his limbs and bones, like a silent infiltration.
This was just a drop of the most ordinary Heavenly Dew, a Third-Tier one, which didn’t provide much enhancement to Lu Changsheng, but the moment he consumed it, he was astonished.
It was as if you were racking your brain, unable to grasp the key, and then suddenly your thoughts became clear, and your whole body felt comfortable.
“This kind of Fifth-Tier Advanced exotic treasure is indeed extraordinary. In a short time, it can condense a drop of Third-Tier Heavenly Dew.”
“If a high platform is established and connected through a Spiritual Vein Grand Formation, without the need for supervision, there will be hundreds of drops of Heavenly Dew in a year!”
“Moreover, this Heavenly Dew has endless wondrous uses and can even help people achieve an Epiphany in Cultivation. If consumed daily, even a foolish person would become enlightened, quick-witted, and possess extraordinary Comprehension Ability!”
Lu Changsheng looked at the Dew-Collecting Plate in front of him, his expression joyful, deeply realizing the value of this treasure.
Furthermore, this was only Third-Tier Heavenly Dew. Once Fourth-Tier Heavenly Dew was condensed, it would also have an effect on him.
For example, previously, he found the Cultivation of the Brahma Demon True Body too time-consuming, so he hadn’t focused on it much.
But if he had enough Advanced Heavenly Dew, he could completely Cultivate this Divine Ability to Major Achievement in the shortest possible time!
In these years, merely relying on the introductory stage of the Brahma Demon True Body was enough for him to contend with Nascent Soul cultivators.
If this supreme Divine Ability were to reach Major Achievement, then his true body wouldn’t even need to act; the Dharma Idol True Body alone would be enough to suppress Nascent Soul cultivators.
“This Dew-Collecting Plate must be used!”
After experiencing it, Lu Changsheng returned to Xuan Whale Island and then handed the Dew-Collecting Plate to Lu Lingjing.
He instructed her to go to the deep sea to condense Heavenly Dew using the Dew-Collecting Plate.
Although Third-Tier Heavenly Dew didn’t have much effect on him, it was incredibly precious to his wives, concubines, and children at Lu.
Therefore, it absolutely could not be wasted.
Mainly, Lu Lingjing, as a Fourth-Order Beast King, was not a concern in such deep waters.
“If you want to eat, you can eat the Heavenly Dew that is condensed yourself then.”
Lu Changsheng saw that the Rift Sea Mysterious Dragon Whale’s injuries had not healed, and thinking of the Heavenly Dew’s effects, he continued.
“Yes, Husband.”
Lu Lingjing, now in her Yao Beast form, was enormous. She placed the Dew-Collecting Plate on her head, like a small hat.
After parting with the Rift Sea Mysterious Dragon Whale, Lu Changsheng returned to the City Lord’s Mansion.
Lu Quanzhen was still adapting to his magic power, and Lu Changsheng was not in a hurry these few days, spending time with Ling Zixiao, Honglian, Meng Xiaochun, Bai Ling, and others.
Half a month later, Lu Quanzhen emerged from seclusion.
He wore a loose green robe, his dark hair lightly tied with a wooden hairpin, his eyes deep, and his demeanor as refined as jade.
Although his appearance was not as handsome and ethereal as Lu Changsheng’s, his temperament was extraordinary, like a mountain standing firm in the boundless sea, profound and unshakeable, giving people a sense of unfathomable vastness.
Even Ling Zixiao couldn’t help but be surprised when she saw Lu Quanzhen, wondering what Opportunity he had obtained to have such a Foundation Establishment Breakthrough Core Formation-like improvement.
Lu Changsheng saw Lu Quanzhen emerge from seclusion, his aura contained. He nodded slightly, bid farewell to Qian Zhuyan, and left her and the Rift Sea Mysterious Dragon Whale to guard Great Dream Immortal City.
He took the Golden Winged Roc, Lu Quanzhen, Lu Linghe, Lu Baixi, and Bai Ling back to Bihu Mountain.
In earlier years, it took the Golden Winged Roc about ten days to travel between Great Dream Immortal City and Bihu Mountain, but now it only took three days.
The only problem was that only Cultivators with a Fourth-Tier Physique like him could withstand this遁速, even his son Lu Quanzhen, who had Third-Tier Late Stage Body Refining, felt immense pressure.
Upon approaching Bihu Mountain, Lu Changsheng signaled the Golden Peng Bird to transform into human form, then the Mi Chen Banner appeared in his hand, radiating five-colored auspicious light, and they appeared directly on Biyun Peak.
“Finally home.”
Lu Changsheng looked at the familiar, vast and misty scenery before him, a sense of ease and naturalness welling up in his heart.
Although he now had Great Dream Immortal City, he still held a special affection for Bihu Mountain, the Family he had personally built.
“Master.”
The Xumi Tree King, enveloped by the Reversal of the Five Elements Formation and the Godly Wood Grand Formation, softly called out to Lu Changsheng, its voice ethereal and indistinct, like a gentle breeze and white clouds caressing one’s face, very pleasant to hear.
“Xumi.”
Lu Changsheng turned to look at the Xumi Tree King, whose entire body was like gold and jade, with crystal clear light flowing, and smiled in response.
If one were to count top-tier Spirit Pets, the Xumi Tree King was his first True Spirit Rank Spirit Pet.
For nearly a hundred years, it had silently guarded Bihu Mountain.
Now, the Golden Winged Roc, Rift Sea Mysterious Dragon Whale, and Tihun Beast had all Advanced to Fourth-Tier, while the Xumi Tree King was still at Third-Tier Late Stage.
On one hand, it was limited by the growth of the Yao Plant and the Spiritual Vein of Bihu Mountain.
On the other hand, Lu Changsheng’s cultivation of the Xumi Tree King was also limited.
Aside from the early Dilu Jiang, Third-Tier Spiritual Vein, and the Innate Pure Qi formed by the Xuanmu Vine, he had barely cultivated it.
However, enhancing the Xumi Tree King’s Rank was actually very simple.
One only needed to upgrade the Immortal Cave Spiritual Vein and perfect the Immortal Cave rules.
But while it sounded easy, it was very difficult to do.
A Third-Tier Spiritual Vein was no longer of much help to Xumi; a Fourth-Tier Spiritual Vein was necessary.
However, with Lu Changsheng’s current Dragon Seeking Art level, he couldn’t possibly excavate a Fourth-Tier Spiritual Vein and didn’t dare to dig randomly.
As for the pure and turbid Qi needed to perfect the Immortal Cave rules, that was also not simple.
Looking at the Xumi Tree King in front of him, Lu Changsheng suddenly noticed that Bihu Mountain’s subtle Luck was rapidly rising.
As a Fourth-Order Diviner, he naturally knew that this was the invisible Luck generated by their return to Bihu Mountain.
As the Master of Bihu Mountain, his long absence, if not causing the Family’s Luck to decline, would at least have a certain impact, disrupting its momentum.
Now, not only had he returned, but there was also Lu Quanzhen, a top-tier Core Formation cultivator, and the Tihun Beast and Golden Winged Roc, two Fourth-Tier Demon Kings.
The Tihun Beast and Golden Winged Roc, as Lu Changsheng’s Spirit Pets, naturally belonged to Bihu Mountain, and invisibly, they would bring some Luck to Bihu Mountain.
“If it continues to rise like this, Bihu Mountain’s Luck will probably surpass Qingyun Sect’s.”
Lu Changsheng narrowed his eyes, realizing that Bihu Mountain’s Luck was too strong, surpassing Qingyun Sect, which would certainly attract some attention.
However, as a Fourth-Order Diviner and a Third-Tier Advanced Formation Master, he planned to conceal it later to avoid unnecessary trouble.
If it truly couldn’t be concealed, then he would have no choice but to reveal it.
Lu Changsheng withdrew his gaze and looked at Lu Quanzhen, saying, “Quanzhen, let’s go. Let’s go see your mother first.”
The reason Lu Changsheng waited for Lu Quanzhen to complete his demonic fiend curse life book transformation and adapt to his state was also so he could go see his wife, Qu Zhenzhen.
Otherwise, if he had sent Lu Quanzhen to the Star Constellation Sea years ago, and now brought back an egg, he truly wouldn’t know how to face his wife.
“En.”
Lu Quanzhen looked at the familiar yet strange Bihu Mountain with some emotion, nodding lightly.
When he went to the Star Constellation Sea, Biyun Peak’s Spiritual Vein had not yet Advanced to Third-Tier, which was a world of difference from now.
However, thinking of his mother, he felt a bit emotional again.
He wondered if his mother, after decades of not seeing her, was still the same as in earlier years…
However, before they could walk down Biyun Peak, Lu Changsheng and Lu Quanzhen saw two emerald green streaks of light flying towards Biyun Peak.
“Husband! Ling’er, Quanzhen!”
The arrivals were none other than Lu Miaoyun and Qu Zhenzhen.
Lu Miaoyun possessed a core Family Formation Plate, so she sensed Lu Changsheng’s return through the Mi Chen Banner at the first moment.
And Qu Zhenzhen sensed the Mi Chen Banner’s Spirit Treasure aura through her Lifebound Spiritual Plant, the Auspicious Tree.
“Yun’er, Zhenzhen.”
Lu Changsheng immediately called out to the two women.
Lu Quanzhen, Lu Linghe, Bai Ling, and others nearby also called out, “Greetings, Mother, Auntie!”
“Greetings, Auntie!”
“Sister Yun, Sister Zhenzhen.”
Only the golden-haired, high-bunned Golden Winged Roc scratched his head, wondering what he should call out in such a scene, then scratched his head again and cupped his hands, saying, “Greetings, Madams.”
“Husband, you’re finally back!”
The two women looked at Lu Changsheng, their eyes red, filled with longing.
Although they had spoken through the Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror, not seeing Lu Changsheng in person still made them very worried.
“It’s Husband’s fault for making you worry.”
Lu Changsheng said softly, stepping forward to comfort the two women.
He often thought about returning home because he had many concerns at Lu and didn’t want his wives and children to worry too much.
With many people around, the two women didn’t show too much affection, simply nodding lightly and walking towards the Lu Family Mansion with Lu Changsheng and the others.
“Husband, who is this?”
Lu Miaoyun looked at the Golden Winged Roc, asking with some surprise.
Although the Golden Winged Roc had just called out ‘Madam,’ she and Qu Zhenzhen had just been focused on Lu Changsheng.
Now, looking at the Golden Winged Roc’s youthful appearance, she even suspected this was her Husband’s son from outside.
After all, Lu Changsheng had been away for so many years, so it was normal for a son to be this old.
As for the Golden Winged Roc not resembling the Human Race and having Yao Race features, the two women didn’t pay it any mind.
Didn’t Lu Baixi and Bai Ling both have non-human features?
“This is Jinpeng.”
Lu Changsheng saw the questioning look in his wife’s eyes, his face twitching, indicating that this was the Golden Peng Bird by his side, now in human form.
“Husband, don’t Yao Beasts have to Breakthrough Fourth-Tier before they can transform into human form?”
The two women looked at the golden-haired youth in surprise, not guessing he was a Beast King, as that was too astonishing.
“That’s right, Jinpeng Advanced to Fourth-Tier, so he can transform now,” Lu Changsheng said with a light chuckle.
The two women were surprised again, looking at the Golden Winged Roc with eyes full of wonder.
Beast Kings, even in books, were only briefly mentioned; it was hard to even see their pictures.
“Oh, Quanzhen, you seem to have grown quite a bit.”
At this moment, Qu Zhenzhen looked at her son, Lu Quanzhen, next to her, and suddenly examined him from head to toe, saying, “But you also seem to have gotten a bit thinner.”
Lu Changsheng: “…”
Lu Quanzhen: “…”
Both father and son were speechless by this remark.
They had no idea where Qu Zhenzhen saw that Lu Quanzhen had gotten thinner.
“Auntie Zhenzhen, Big Brother Quanzhen was re-hatched by Daddy from an egg, that’s why he grew taller.”
Lu Linghe immediately shared the interesting news with Qu Zhenzhen.
“I forgot to tell Xiao He.”
Lu Changsheng secretly cried out in dismay, and then both father and son met the shocked gazes of Qu Zhenzhen and Lu Miaoyun.
Lu Changsheng immediately explained, “Quanzhen was Cultivating a Divine Ability at the time. Look at Quanzhen now, how does he look thin? He’s even stronger than an ordinary Yao Beast.”
As he spoke, he patted his son’s shoulder, a clanging, dull sound echoing.
“There’s even such a Divine Ability?!”
Although the two women were the mistresses of Bihu Mountain and had access to many Advanced pieces of information, their knowledge was still limited, like curious babies.
Just like that, the Family arrived at the Lu Family Mansion, chatting and laughing.
Seeing Lu Changsheng finally return, Lu Miaoyun immediately went to inform the others.
She also told Lu Changsheng that Xiao Xiyue had come to Bihu Mountain several months ago and had been staying there, needing to see him about something.
“…” Lu Changsheng suddenly felt a bad premonition.
Although Xiao Xiyue would occasionally stay at Bihu Mountain, she didn’t particularly like long stays.
Furthermore, he had been away for some time, yet Xiao Xiyue had stayed for several months. He didn’t even need to think to know there was something important.
But if it was important, why didn’t she send him a sound transmission?
Lu Changsheng, who was already feeling a bit guilty, instantly guessed the purpose of Xiao Xiyue’s visit.
Although Old Ancestor Lu had killed Nascent Soul cultivators and Fourth-Tier Demon Kings outside, he always held respect for his wife at Lu.
