Chapter 366: The Way of Insect Control, Fourth Elder's Joyous Bereavement!_2
After all, the Insect Nest Bag reminded him of the Ancient Beast Taming Charm and of Xu Ruyin.
Xu Ruyin had been with the Beast Taming Xu Family all these years, unable to be by Lu Chensha's side. Naturally, as a father, he had to show some concern.
Moreover, his son was capable of mastering the Beast Technique, which made him worthy of focused cultivation.
"Insect Nest Bag, the path of Insect Control."
Although Lu Chensha did not know why his father suddenly mentioned the path of Insect Control,
observing the silver-grey bag in his hand, he did not hesitate and immediately cupped his hands, saying, "Thank you, father. Your son will certainly not disappoint you."
"Um."
Lu Changsheng nodded, then checked on this son's cultivation and life matters.
He asked him to seek Lu Yun's help to purchase insect eggs and also allocated an extra fifty Spirit Stones each month for him to nurture the insects.
After making these arrangements, Lu Changsheng returned to Blue Lake Mountain.
For him, this matter was just something done in passing.
Whether this son could make something of himself depended on his own efforts.
...
A year later.
Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven, Changsheng Hall.
A powerful Mana force emanated from the Cave Mansion, intangible Spiritual Pressure already surpassing the Foundation Establishment level, akin to that of a False Core Immortal.
"As expected, at this rate, without even fully converting the Yin Yang Creation Scripture, the realm could achieve a breakthrough to the Ninth Level Foundation Establishment through my children."
Lu Changsheng opened his eyes; his gaze was piercing, as if it were two intimidating swords.
Over the years, he had spent most of his time converting the Yin Yang Creation Scripture.
Still, relying on the added cultivation from his children and the gradual improvement of Sun Moon Samsara Technique, his progress could still be considered incredibly fast.
He quietly sensed the Mana within his body.
With the enhancement from the Profound Origin Bead, his Mana was now indistinguishable from that of a False Core Immortal.
It was even more robust than some inept practitioners with False Core Power.
But now, his Profound Origin Bead had also reached its limit.
Even if he continued to improve, this bead could no longer provide any enhancement.
"Being able to amplify to this extent is already quite impressive."
"If I break through to Core Formation, this Profound Origin Bead would likely only serve as an ordinary boosting Magical Treasure."
Lu Changsheng exhaled deeply, planning to pass down this bead through his family lineage after his breakthrough to Core Formation.
After all, for Foundation Establishment Cultivators, this bead was truly a top-tier treasure!
Promptly, Lu Changsheng continued to meditate, stabilizing the Mana he had just broken through.
Five days later, Lu Changsheng exited the cave mansion and looked at the 'Tianyuan Supreme King Lotus' in the Spiritual Spring.
Besides the Tianyuan Supreme King Lotus, there were also three Heavenly Origin Precious Lotuses.
These were additional ones that Xiao Xiyue had delivered two years ago.
However, Lu Changsheng was focusing all his efforts on cultivating the Tianyuan Supreme King Lotus, so these three lotuses showed little change.
"It seems like the Tianyuan Supreme King Lotus might not advance to Tianyuan Lotus before I break through Core Formation."
"How about I use the 'Tianyuan Supreme King Lotus' for now and swap it out once the 'Tianyuan Lotus' is cultivated?"
Lu Changsheng looked at the Tianyuan Supreme King Lotus in front of him, rubbed his chin, and pondered.
Although advancing it to Tianyuan Lotus could not be better,
the Tianyuan Supreme King Lotus was sufficient for his current stage of use.
"Let's nurture it for three more years, then I'll harvest and cultivate the next one."
Lu Changsheng thought to himself, walked out of Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven, and visited the Lu Family Mansion to see Xia Zhizue.
Three months ago, the first child after Xia Zhizue's Foundation Establishment was born.
Unfortunately, this child only had a Fifth Grade Spiritual Root.
This made the hopeful Lu Changsheng sigh slightly.
However, considering the Spirit Nurturing Physique was just an ordinary spiritual body,
being able to give all children Spiritual Roots and enhance their quality was already remarkable.
How could one expect a High-Quality Spiritual Root in just one birth.
It had already been very fortunate to have Lu Xingchen born years ago.
Therefore, Lu Changsheng planned to have more children with Xia Zhizue after his breakthrough to Core Formation.
On one hand, the children born then would surely have better talents.
On the other hand, Xia Zhizue had already given birth to five children.
He couldn't possibly let her keep bearing children endlessly just because of her unique physique.
Besides, giving birth after Core Formation would also be strenuous for Xia Zhizue, requiring proper recuperation.
...
Qingzhu Mountain.
Ever since Lu Changsheng established Blue Lake Mountain Lu Family, Qingzhu Mountain had also been prospering.
Although the family only had Lu Yuanzhong and Lu Muping, two Foundation Establishment Cultivators, stationed there,
after so many years of development, fresh blood and a core force had been replenished in the family.
Moreover, with the Foundation Establishment Elixirs given by Lu Changsheng, half-sold, half-donated five years ago, Qingzhu Mountain could cultivate a third Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator any time it wished!
However, Lu Yuanzhong was very cautious about the selection of the family's third Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
Now, with him and Lu Muping stationed there, a hundred years of peace was assured.
Thus, he believed the third Foundation Establishment Cultivator had to be a tiger-like and wolf-like aggressive leader, not another conservative one!
Only in this way could their Qingzhu Mountain step further in the future, and not just rely on Blue Lake Mountain.
In Qingzhu Valley, a small courtyard full of Qing Ling bamboo,
The Fourth Elder was basking in the sun on a reclining chair.
She was now one hundred and twenty-four years old.
Though Energy Refining Cultivators could live to one hundred and twenty, very few actually reached this age.
If not for the Second Rank Lifespan Extension Pill given by Lu Changsheng, considering the effort she put into researching and drawing talismans in her youth, it would have been hard to reach this age.
Now, regardless of age or status, she was truly an elder in Qingzhu Mountain.
"I miss Changsheng, Yun'er..."
The old lady basking on the reclining chair squinted her cloudy eyes, feeling her sight blur slightly, and suddenly murmured softly.
"Great Ancestor, what did you say?"
The younger generation of the Lu Family immediately came closer to inquire, attending by her side.
