Chapter 889: Concubine, Bloodline Upgrade!
“With the end of this war, we can finally recuperate properly.”
Jue Jian True Lord looked at the corpse of the Four-Rank Dragon Crocodile and the ravaged Beast God Mountain, took a deep breath, and slowly said.
Although with the aid of Lu Changsheng, the Great Dream City Lord, and Yang Ming True Lord, this Liang Yue War, which had lasted for many years, was victorious with almost no losses, like a broken bamboo.
However, decades of war still caused great losses to the three countries.
“I’m afraid the tree wants to be still, but the wind won’t stop.”
Xuanjian True Lord gazed towards the central region, muttering softly.
The Demon Dao Seven Sects possibly reigniting a great war was no secret; there had been such rumors for a long time.
But rumors were just rumors.
Now, the Blood Sea Sect, one of the Demon Dao Seven Sects, had actually come to such a remote place to interfere and stir up the Cultivation World’s war, which truly made one ponder.
“Senior Brother, didn’t you already foresee this?”
Jue Jian True Lord knew that his Senior Brother had long been preparing for this great war.
Xuanjian True Lord did not reply, only softly said, “Inform Mixed Origin True Lord, Violet Radiance True Lord, and Caiyun Zhenjun of the news from Beast God Mountain.”
“Okay.” Jue Jian True Lord responded.
At this moment, Chi Shen Sect.
Upon receiving the news of Thousand Blades True Lord’s death, Yun Mei True Lord and Yanmu Zhenjun immediately led the Sect’s elites and the direct descendants of Beast God Mountain to evacuate towards Yuan Country.
Although Mixed Origin True Lord and Violet Radiance True Lord, who were ambushing outside, wanted to pursue the victory and intercept them.
However, the evacuating Cultivators were all elites of Liang Country and were traveling by warship.
Under such circumstances, with Yun Mei True Lord and Yanmu Zhenjun, two Nascent Soul Cultivators, providing cover, even if the two of them attacked, they could only interfere.
They sent messages to Xuanjian True Lord, Jue Jian True Lord, and Yun Wanchang.
But none of the three could rush to provide aid.
Considering that Yun Mei True Lord and Yanmu Zhenjun’s retreat would not allow them to take all the Chi Shen Sect disciples and supplies, the two gave up on the pursuit.
They blockaded the Chi Shen Sect for a clean-up, awaiting Yun Wanchang’s arrival with the main army.
Just then, they received a message from Jue Jian True Lord.
“What, Beast God Mountain has been broken, the Devil Dao Emissary has been repelled, and Nine Spirits True Lord has been captured and killed by Yang Ming True Lord?”
Upon seeing this message, Mixed Origin True Lord and Violet Radiance True Lord looked at each other, both with expressions of surprise, shock, and disbelief.
After all, as Nascent Soul Cultivators of Yue Country, they had dealt with Nine Spirits True Lord many times and knew his strength well.
Even if the two of them combined their efforts, they could only contend with Nine Spirits True Lord.
Under such circumstances, Nine Spirits True Lord was actually captured and killed by Yang Ming True Lord.
And the Devil Dao Emissary was also repelled by Yang Ming True Lord?
Nine Spirits True Lord and the Devil Dao Emissary were together; how did Yang Ming True Lord capture one and repel the other?
The two found it incredibly perplexing.
Moreover, how long had it been since Yang Ming True Lord killed Thousand Blades True Lord?
In such a short time, to rush from Hua Rong Immortal City to Beast God Mountain, and resolve Nine Spirits True Lord and the Devil Dao Emissary, this was too incredible, wasn’t it?
The two were utterly stunned and very much wanted to know the true strength of this Yang Ming True Lord.
How could he resolve Nine Spirits True Lord and the Devil Dao Emissary in such a short time?
However, such urgent communication talismans were rare and did not allow for regular conversation, so they did not ask further, only relaying the situation of the Chi Shen Sect.
They stated that Yun Mei True Lord and Yanmu Zhenjun were retreating with the Sect’s elites and could not fully unleash their speed.
If they still had the energy to rush there now, they could intercept Yun Mei True Lord and Yanmu Zhenjun before they reached Yuan Country.
“…”
Jue Jian True Lord received the message from the two, his face twitched slightly, and then he informed Lu Changsheng of the news.
“If they escaped, then they escaped.”
In the Immortal Cave, Lu Changsheng, who was reinstalling Top-Grade Spirit Stones for Qian Zhuyan, responded calmly.
He was now physically and mentally exhausted, with 80% of his magical power depleted, and had no intention of pursuing Yun Mei True Lord and Yanmu Zhenjun.
“Little Yan, how long will it take to repair your Puppet body and Puppet battle formation?”
Although other Puppets had been stored by Qian Zhuyan, Lu Changsheng had previously seen that the thirteen Puppets were all more or less damaged.
“At least ten years.” Qian Zhuyan’s Soul fire in her eye sockets flickered faintly, her voice hoarse, feeling very distressed.
“Just tell me what materials you need. There’s no rush to repair the other Puppets for now; we can consider directly forging Four-Rank Puppets.”
Lu Changsheng said, feeling that repairing the thirteen Puppets would only provide limited improvement to Qian Zhuyan’s combat power.
It would be better to forge a few more Four-Rank Puppets to further enhance her Puppet body.
“En.” Qian Zhuyan responded softly, her mood a little down.
These thirteen Puppets had cost her a lot of effort.
When forming a Puppet battle formation, in a positional battle, they were enough to contend with some veteran Nascent Souls.
But just dealing with and contending against Moro, they were almost half-废 (废 means废弃, ruined or useless).
Qian Zhuyan deeply realized that she could no longer keep up with Lu Changsheng’s growth.
His growth was simply too fast.
For the following period, Lu Changsheng continuously recuperated in the Four-Rank Immortal Cave of Beast God Mountain.
All matters concerning Beast God Mountain and Liang Country were handled by Xuanjian True Lord and Mixed Origin True Lord and others.
When the army led by Jue Jian True Lord and the army led by Caiyun Zhenjun arrived at Beast God Mountain and Chi Shen Sect and began to clear the battlefield, the Liang Yue War was officially declared over.
The remaining major forces in Liang Country either fled or surrendered.
Half a month later, Heaven Sword Sect and Mixed Origin Sect successfully took control of all the top-tier Spiritual Vein Dao fields in Liang Country, and the remaining local forces almost all chose to submit.
On this day, Xuanjian True Lord notified Lu Changsheng to go together to inspect the Beast God Mountain treasury.
“Treasury, huh?”
Lu Changsheng still held some expectations for the Beast God Mountain treasury.
But upon arriving at the Beast God Mountain treasury, Lu Changsheng was greatly disappointed.
Compared to Zhenhai Sect’s treasury, it was far inferior.
Most of the remaining rare spiritual materials were large-volume, hard-to-carry crystal iron Ore, Yao Beast materials, and so on.
“Nine Spirits True Lord must have sent people ahead of time to move many of the Sect’s rare resources away.”
Xuanjian True Lord said in a deep voice, realizing that the Beast God Mountain treasury’s resources were definitely more than this.
“En.”
Lu Changsheng had just watched Xuanjian True Lord break through the treasury’s Formation Restriction, knowing that the latter had not entered beforehand.
It must have been Nine Spirits True Lord who sent people to take them away early, or hid them somewhere.
He and Xuanjian True Lord walked through the treasury, and upon seeing some good treasures and spiritual materials, he put them into his Storage Pouch.
Although the treasury was far from comparable to Zhenhai Sect’s.
Compared to Yinming Ghost Sect, it was still not bad.
“Xuanjian Daoyou can pick some more.”
Lu Changsheng naturally regarded the treasury as his spoils of war, and Xuanjian True Lord could only share a little.
Xuanjian True Lord naturally had no objection to this.
After the two finished dividing the treasury resources, Xuanjian True Lord handed two Jade Slips to Lu Changsheng.
One recorded the current resources of Beast God Mountain, the remaining Cultivators, and its affiliated industries, etc.
The second Jade Slip recorded the situation of Jiang Country and Heaven Sword Mountain.
“Yang Ming Fellow Daoist, the relocation of the two countries will involve many fixed resources and resources, as well as the distribution of Cultivators and forces; please take a look.”
Xuanjian True Lord said to Lu Changsheng, his tone and attitude very sincere.
Now that Liang Country was pacified, he naturally wanted to quickly reorganize Liang Country, and then, with the help of Heaven And Earth Spiritual Essence and the subtle Luck, once again attempt to Break through to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.
“Okay.”
Lu Changsheng saw that Xuanjian True Lord attached great importance to this matter and looked at the Jade Slip with his Divine Sense.
As he had guessed, Heaven Sword Sect was relocating to Liang Country, and the latter wanted to bring Luoxia Sect, Yu Ling Sect, and other forces along.
In fact, Qingyun Sect, Xuanjian True Lord also wanted to invite, to relocate to Liang Country together.
However, he had already guessed in his heart that the Yang Ming True Lord, Great Dream City Lord, before him, was very likely Yun Wanchang’s Dao Companion, Kirin Sword Lord.
Under such circumstances, he naturally wouldn’t make a fool of himself.
Unless Yun Wanchang wanted to exchange a Four-Rank Spiritual Vein Dao field in Liang Country through military merits.
“As for the exchange between the two countries, let’s discuss it in detail after meeting with Mixed Origin True Lord, Violet Radiance True Lord, and Caiyun Zhenjun and distributing the gains from this war.”
Lu Changsheng said.
Although in this decisive battle, Mixed Origin Sect, Violet Radiance Sect, and Qingyun Sect contributed limited effort, and the three did not achieve great merits.
But as Nascent Soul True Lords, coming to the battlefield gave them the qualification to sit at the table and cut the cake.
For these, Lu Changsheng would naturally not be stingy; what should be distributed would not be less by a single point.
Besides the resource treasury, Beast God Mountain also had many places of rare value.
For example, the Scripture Pavilion, which was where Beast God Mountain stored Cultivation Techniques and ancient texts.
It might not contain the complete Sect-founding Cultivation Technique of Beast God Mountain, but it had many Cultivation Techniques and ancient texts collected by Beast God Mountain.
There was also the Beast Rearing Valley, which housed many spiritual pets and Yao Beasts.
Although many high-level Yao Beasts had been taken away, many still remained, and there was even a top-tier Dao army.
However, this Dao army could only be mobilized by Nine Spirits True Lord; others found it difficult to take control.
“Beast God Mountain, indeed worthy of being a Nascent Soul force with such a long Legacy. Even with many resources and foundations taken away, it still surpasses Yinming Ghost Sect.”
Lu Changsheng walked through Beast God Mountain, sighing in his heart.
He didn’t wander much; after circling Beast God Mountain, he returned to his Immortal Cave and lightly patted his Storage Pouch.
“Buzz!”
An exquisite, small, beautifully contoured ancient furnace, resembling a reclining goddess, appeared.
As the furnace lid opened, a Nascent Soul Spirit Body, tightly bound by silver threads, fell into Lu Changsheng’s hand.
It was precisely Nine Spirits True Lord’s Nascent Soul Spirit Body.
“Nine Spirits Fellow Daoist.”
Lu Changsheng looked calmly at the weak and pale Nascent Soul Spirit Body in his hand.
Previously, he intended to subdue Youyue Zhenjun to receive, manage the Legacy of Beast God Mountain, its Cultivator disciples, and guard the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range.
Now, he had a better candidate.
“Yang Ming True Lord, the victor is king, the loser is bandit. I have nothing to say, having fallen into your hands.”
Nine Spirits True Lord was already severely injured in the previous encirclement and had even burned his Nascent Soul Origin.
Afterwards, he attempted to self-detonate, but was forcibly interrupted by Lu Changsheng, who wounded his Spirit Body, leaving him extremely weak at this moment.
Seeing Lu Changsheng release him, his eyelids flickered, and he spoke in a strong tone, then closed his eyes and remained silent.
The victor is king, the loser is bandit; the weak are prey to the strong.
Since he had lost, there was nothing more to say.
Begging for mercy was something Nine Spirits True Lord could not do.
If not for being tightly bound by the God Binding Net, he would even want to self-destruct his Divine Soul and end his own life.
“Nine Spirits Fellow Daoist is indeed a hegemon. If you choose to surrender, do you not consider your family’s descendants?”
“Just now, in my Spirit Treasure, you should have seen that Youyue Zhenjun is still alive and well.”
“As long as you are willing to submit to me, I can spare Youyue Zhenjun.”
“As far as I know, Fellow Daoist has already sent away your Bloodline descendants and Sect elites early, but if Fellow Daoist dies, can these people truly be cared for and revive Beast God Mountain?”
Lu Changsheng looked at Nine Spirits True Lord before him and slowly said.
The other party had the most contact with the Devil Dao Emissary; if he could be subdued, he would surely know a lot about the Blood Sea Sect’s situation.
Moreover, it was difficult to completely subdue Youyue Zhenjun by relying on the Goddess Furnace to influence her thoughts and consciousness.
Even if she was temporarily subdued, if he left for too long and lost the influence of the Goddess Furnace, Youyue Zhenjun would gradually regain consciousness.
So Lu Changsheng thought of a method.
Subdue Nine Spirits True Lord through Youyue Zhenjun, and then soften Youyue Zhenjun through Nine Spirits True Lord.
Mainly, in this Liang Yue War, Lu Changsheng deeply realized that he lacked usable combat power under him.
In the future, possessing Jiang Country, he would face the problem of having no one to use.
If he could subdue both of them, then in the future, Jiang Country would not require him to personally handle everything.
As for the hatred between him and Beast God Mountain…
“Does Fellow Daoist not feel unwilling? If not for the Devil Dao Emissary, how could your Beast God Mountain have fallen to this state?”
“As long as you are willing to submit to me, in the future, I might even help you rebuild Beast God Mountain.”
Through this battle and the information collected in earlier years, Lu Changsheng knew that Nine Spirits True Lord cared deeply about the Sect’s Legacy.
Otherwise, the other party could have completely abandoned the Sect and gone to a wider world to seek the Nascent Soul Middle Stage Opportunity.
With his talent, as long as he went to the central region, there was some hope of Breaking through to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.
Nine Spirits True Lord opened his eyes, looking at Lu Changsheng, who wore a black robe and cloak and had a calm and indifferent expression, his heart wavered.
His Beast God Mountain had fallen to this point, although it had a great deal to do with the Yang Ming True Lord before him.
Therefore, he was filled with hatred for this Yang Ming True Lord.
But as for Moro, it was impossible to say he had no hatred.
If not for the other party’s fear of trouble and unwillingness to intervene too much, constantly pushing from the shadows, how would his Beast God Mountain have fallen to such a state?
Moreover, Moro had abandoned him without hesitation earlier!
“It is better to resolve enmity than to foster it. Fellow Daoist, please consider carefully. Although Beast God Mountain no longer exists, as long as you are willing to submit, you can lead the remaining Cultivators to rebuild Beast God Mountain.”
“As for Youyue Zhenjun… I can not only spare her, but even give her the status of a concubine.”
Lu Changsheng continued to speak to Nine Spirits True Lord, showing his sincerity.
Although for a dignified Nascent Soul True Lord to become a concubine was simply a blatant insult.
But how could his Yang Ming True Lord be an ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivator?
To be willing to promise the position of a concubine was already a kind of grace!
Especially for a prisoner like Nine Spirits True Lord.
After speaking, Lu Changsheng said no more and put Nine Spirits True Lord back into the Goddess Furnace.
Looking at Youyue Zhenjun, whose five senses and six consciousnesses were sealed in the Goddess Furnace, Nine Spirits True Lord fell into deep thought.
Among his Bloodline descendants, if one were to speak of the most outstanding, it would naturally be Youyue Zhenjun, who had Broken through to Nascent Soul.
Although her successful Breakthrough to Nascent Soul had Moro’s help, it was also her Opportunity.
“Concubine, rebuilding Beast God Mountain…”
In the depths of Nine Spirits True Lord’s heart, which had already died, a small flame surged forth again.
【Detecting host’s offspring Bloodline upgrade, effects conflict, do you choose to fuse?】
Not long after Lu Changsheng sat down, a System prompt suddenly sounded in his mind.
He froze.
Offspring Bloodline upgrade?
Bloodline, not Spirit Body!
He only had two children with True Spirit Bloodline.
Daughter Lu Baixi, possessing Bai Xi Bloodline!
Daughter Mu Que, possessing Phoenix Bloodline!
Daughter Lu Baixi was Cultivating at Lu, preparing to Break through to the Third Layer, so it was impossible for her Bloodline to suddenly upgrade.
Moreover, daughter Lu Baixi’s Bloodline was already comparable to a top-tier Spirit Body.
If it advanced further, wouldn’t it be comparable to a Dao Body?
So, was it daughter Mu Que?
Immediately, a System interface appeared.
【Name: Mu Que】
【Lifespan: 28/161】
【Talent: Third-Grade Spiritual Root】
【Cultivation: Qi Refining Ninth Layer】
【Ability: Space (63%)】
The System interface had no Bloodline information.
“System, fuse!” Lu Changsheng took a deep breath, wanting to see his daughter’s Bloodline improvement.
Although with his current resources, he could help his children at Lu to condense Spirit Bodies through Acquired Spirit Body Cultivation methods.
He could also search for corresponding Heaven And Earth Treasures to help his children improve their Spirit Bodies.
But daughter Mu Que was only at the Qi Refining Ninth Layer; what kind of Opportunity could she have obtained to upgrade her Bloodline?
Instantly, Lu Changsheng felt that the effect of his Chaos Body’s Phoenix Bloodline ability was continuously increasing and condensing.
If his daughter’s Innate Phoenix Bloodline was only comparable to a mid-grade Spirit Body level.
Then now, it was only half a step away from reaching the level of a top-tier Spirit Body!
Such an improvement was truly significant!
“How did Mu Que obtain such an Opportunity? Did Qingluan True Monarch come out of seclusion and find her?”
Lu Changsheng pondered, immediately taking out his divination tortoise shell and copper coins, attempting to divine her situation through the father-daughter Bloodline as a medium.
However, daughter Mu Que’s heavenly secret was even more profound than before.
And a hazy mist enveloped her heavenly secret and Luck, interfering with and influencing her destiny.
“Is it Qingluan, or someone else?”
Lu Changsheng frowned, unsure if this heavenly secret mist came from Qingluan True Monarch.
He only knew that this heavenly secret mist was vast and profound, and even at a cost, he found it difficult to break through.
