Chapter 2262: 609: The Second Taoist Body!
"My son, do not worry, your mother is proud of you. May your future on the Immortal Path be everlasting!"
Perhaps due to her early experiences, my mother believed all things are of low quality, except for cultivation. Her expectation for me was solely focused on cultivation, and...gaining my father’s approval.
It might be precisely because of these two points that I could possess a Fourth Grade Spiritual Root, reach my current state at the age of one hundred.
Although father showed favoritism towards many of my siblings, at least he gave all Lu Family disciples a relatively equal opportunity. As long as one is willing to work hard, there will be rewards...
Just like when I successfully broke through Foundation Establishment, father bestowed upon me a Divine Power Fruit, granting me the divine skill [Thunder Fire Mysterious Lotus].
Later on, utilizing this divine skill, I managed to slay two attacking Foundation Establishment cultivators at Flower Fruit Mountain, repelling another, and received father’s commendation.
So step by step, I have come this far.
Lu Qingxuan scooped a spoonful of honey into his mouth, finding the taste quite ordinary.
Back in the days when I completed Channel Qi into the Body, my sister Lu Caizhen gifted me a bottle of honey, which I found delicious.
Since then, my mother Shao Yuyao would buy a bottle of honey from Lu Caizhen during festive occasions as a reward.Even though I stopped liking it early on, my mother always believed I enjoyed it, loved it. Whenever I returned home, back to Bi Lake Mountain, mother would always prepare a bottle, and I was unwilling to refuse her kindness.
Pouring the honey onto the pale white heart orchid in front of my mother’s grave, Lu Qingxuan bowed reverently.
The breeze ruffled the heart orchid, making it sway as if he saw the shadow of a woman appearing before him, her fingertips brushing across his furrowed brow.
"Sigh..."
Not far away, Lu Changsheng clad in a green robe observed the scene in front of him, feeling somewhat heavy-hearted as well.
Life and death are inevitable parts of life.
Over a century of cultivation, he had already experienced countless instances of life and death.
Just like this Lu Family mausoleum garden, which not only held many of his concubines but also his children.
Therefore, every time he came here, he felt exceptionally heavy-hearted.
....
After visiting his son and a small celebration at home, Lu Changsheng returned to Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven to continue cultivating the "Yuan Yu Five Viscera Technique".
His cultivation technique had not yet broken through the fifth layer.
He merely felt that the time was right, as his son needed to break through, so he came out to visit.
During his final breakthrough, he injected a "Yin-Yang Source" to provide some assistance.
Although his son was only a Second Grade Golden Core.
With the [Thunderstrike Fosang Wood], after he finished his own matters, he would give his son a small piece to elevate the Second Grade Golden Core to First Grade, which wasn’t difficult.
As Lu Changsheng continued his closed-door cultivation, news regarding the Kunpeng Egg silently spread across the Starry Sky Sea.
It indicated that the Kunpeng Egg had already hatched.
The young Kunpeng had escaped into a Mist Sea Zone called the Great Dream Marsh through some kind of treasure.
Additionally, there were rumors that the Kunpeng’s offspring had fallen into the hands of the overlord force of this Great Dream Marsh, the Great Dream Immortal City.
Despite the inexplicable nature of this news.
Many High Rank Cultivators and major forces realized that someone was secretly fueling the flames.
Yet, faced with such matters, they still adopted a mindset of rather wrongfully killing yet leaving no chance unturned, dispatching people to investigate the situation of Great Dream Marsh and Great Dream Immortal City.
.....
Fu Hai Sect.
The Obsidian Palace, bathed in an eerie azure glow, with a Flood Dragon’s phantom coiling around it.
Inside, a Core Formation Cultivator clad in a Flood Dragon Taoist robe, his face sharply defined, sat opposite the dignified Pinghai True Monarch, who wore a wide blue sea-pattern embroidered robe, speaking deeply.
"Brother Pinghai, the word has already spread. What comes next is to watch how things unfold. I must trouble you to keep a close watch."
This Core Formation Cultivator was the Fu Hai True Monarch who three years ago, had his magic body shattered by Lu Changsheng’s Solar Mysterious Light, escaping with help from a Nascent Soul Spirit Body.
His magic body was completely destroyed, so unlike Ling Bo True Monarch, who still harbored expectations for his magic body, he promptly chose to possess and reincarnate into a top talent within the Sect for a fresh start.
Nascent Soul Possession eliminates the need for slow cultivation.
Relying on Fu Hai Sect’s resources, within ten years, he could stabilize his cultivation level to Nascent Soul Stage.
As for reaching his former peak again, almost impossible.
After all, possession reincarnation consumes the Nascent Soul Origin.
If not for the Fu Hai Sect’s secret treasure, his Nascent Soul Spirit Body would have almost fallen from Earth Dao Nascent Soul to Human Dao Nascent Soul.
Faced with this situation, hearing Pinghai True Monarch’s analysis alongside the intelligence gathered by his dispatched personnel traversing the Great Dream Marsh.
The two immediately spread the news, hoping to let other forces of the Starry Sky Sea and loose cultivators test the waters of the Great Dream Marsh and Great Dream Immortal City.
If their speculation proved accurate, the opponent they faced back then was merely bluffing with Supreme Treasure.
Then they could muster the others among the Seven Sects to head to the Great Dream Immortal City together to seize the opportunity for Supreme Treasure.
Though his magic body was shattered, his strength greatly diminished, making it difficult to acquire the Supreme Treasure opportunity.
If only he could exact revenge, sharing the spoils and receiving other compensations to replenish the Nascent Soul Origin would suffice.
Else in his current state, he would be halted at Nascent Soul Third Level in this life, with no hope of Nascent Soul Middle Stage.
"Rest assured, Brother Fu Hai, I will keep watch over the situation of the Great Dream Immortal City in the coming days."
Pinghai True Monarch responded, intending to let the message ferment while individuals of the Starry Sky Sea investigated the Great Dream Immortal City’s situation, observing covertly himself.
After all, bluster is one thing, but that Solar Divine Light was no illusion.
Despite speculating that the conditions for triggering the Solar Divine Light were extremely stringent.
But given the previous instance with Fu Hai True Monarch, he certainly wouldn’t gamble his life on it.
Should others be slain by the Solar Divine Light, so be it.
Even though they knew the message was released by the Seven Sects of the Ocean, would the opposing side dare find trouble with them?
...
Bi Lake Mountain, Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven.
These days, Lu Changsheng remained engrossed in the cultivation of the "Yuan Yu Five Viscera Technique".
From the Fourth Layer to the Fifth Layer, even for him, it posed significant difficulty, unable to break through in just a few months.
Nevertheless, precisely for these reasons, Lu Changsheng grew increasingly interested and anticipated the Fifth Layer of the "Yuan Yu Five Viscera Technique".
Moreover, at this moment, Yun Wanshang could give birth at any time.
Once the child is born, he plans to break through to Nascent Soul, and lacks the mood to attend to other matters.
Thus, time passed bit by bit.
Uncertain how long had elapsed, suddenly three system notification tones startled him from his cultivation.
Accompanied by a profound vibration of the Spiritual Root!
