This speed is not at all inferior to that of Xiao Xiyue’s initial progress and even surpasses it by a notch.

Afterward, Lu Changsheng inquired about the situation of his other children.

The fifth child with a Spiritual Root has also reached twelve years of age, and has started the cultivation process.

But he has not yet completed the drawing-in of Qi.

“Starting from next year, the children who are able to cultivate will experience a minor burst in growth.”

Lu Changsheng spent an entire day caring for and inquiring after all his children.

...
He knew that in the next four years, he would have fifteen children with Spiritual Roots stepping onto the path of immortality.

This was thanks to his frenetic sowing when he first arrived at Nine Dragons Market.

In just five short years, he had fathered sixty children.

On average, one child per month.

If it hadn’t been for the Second and Fourth Elders persuading him to take care of his body and show some restraint, the number might have been even higher.

“Nine Dragons Market.”

Lu Changsheng reflected on the days when he bought maids from the White Jade Tower in Nine Dragons Market.

“It feels like it’s time to select some more maids.”

He couldn’t help but think to himself.

Among these wives and maids, apart from Lu Miaoge who had only given birth to one, Lu Miaohuan had borne two.

The others had at least three or four each.

Some of the concubines had gone as far as having five or six children.

In Lu Changsheng’s view, this number was about right.

Although the purchased maids had no rights.

They couldn’t be treated solely as breeding machines.

Empathy was key; the concubines needed to be devoted to him wholeheartedly.

Otherwise, when the children grew up, seeing their mothers treated like this, they would feel uncomfortable too.

“If the outflow is to be stemmed, the source must be widened by increasing the number of maids.”

“Moreover, I now have the money to go to the White Jade Tower and purchase maids with Middle Grade and even Upper Grade Spiritual Roots.”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself for a moment; he decided to visit the White Jade Tower in Nine Dragons Market when he had some free time.

It wasn’t just about income and expenditure.

All his maids were of Lower Grade Spiritual Roots.

This had a certain influence on the Spiritual Root talent of the children born.

Now that his circumstances had improved, it was time for a further step in selective breeding.

After all, the higher the parents’ Spiritual Roots, the better the children’s Spiritual Roots would be.

After staying in Qingzhu Mountain for ten days, Lu Changsheng prepared to return to Red Leaf Valley Market.

“Boom!”

Just then, a relatively dense cultivation level surged into Lu Changsheng’s body from nowhere.

He immediately knew that his son, Lu Xianzhi, had broken through the bottleneck of the middle stage of Qi Refinement.

He had reached the Fourth Level of Energy Refinement.

“The Fourth Level of Energy Refinement, if not counting the quality of Spiritual Power and mana, is about one percent of my current cultivation level.”

“It’s equivalent to saving me a month and a half of arduous cultivation.”

Lu Changsheng closed his eyes to feel the incoming cultivation strength and roughly estimated.

“If we calculate this way, a hundred cultivators at the Fourth Level of Energy Refinement would be equal to one Foundation Establishment.”

“However, the quality difference in mana allows a Foundation Establishment Cultivator to easily slaughter a hundred cultivators in the middle stage of Energy Refinement.”

Lu Changsheng shook his head slightly, knowing such calculations were not feasible.

“But reaching the middle stage of Energy Refinement at least has some effect on me.”

“When breaking through to the Second and Third Levels of Energy Refinement earlier, there was no perceivable impact on me.”

“Now that I’m at the Foundation Establishment level, for my children to impact me, they need to be at the late stage of Qi Refinement.”

“But waiting for a child to cultivate to the late stage of Energy Refinement will probably take another ten to twenty years.”

Lu Changsheng took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

The path of cultivation seemed long and distant.

After all, aside from Lu Qingshan and the previously mentioned son with a Fourth Grade Spiritual Root, Lu Qingxuan, the Spiritual Roots of his current children were mediocre at best.

There were only two with Sixth Grade Middle Spiritual Roots.

All the others were of Lower Grade Spiritual Roots.

“But indeed, as I suspected, there was no achievement reward for the child breaking through to the middle stage of Qi Refinement.”

“Could it be that such cultivation-related achievement rewards won’t trigger again until they break through to Foundation Establishment?”

“If that’s the case, it’s way too difficult.”

Lu Changsheng saw no system notification and shook his head inwardly.

Although he had anticipated this, he still held a faint hope.

He wanted to see if breaking through to the middle stage of Qi Refinement would trigger an achievement reward.

“Xianzhi is also fifteen or sixteen now, having broken through to the middle stage of Qi Refinement, it’s time to let him gain some experience in Red Leaf Valley Market.”

Seeing Lu Xianzhi’s breakthrough to the middle stage of Qi Refinement, Lu Changsheng thought about his son who was no longer young.

He planned to let him go out to broaden his horizon and get tempered.

After all, flowers cannot be grown in a greenhouse.

These children were his future foundation.

They would need them to manage the family later on.

Even with average Spiritual Roots, they must be well-cultivated.

Thereupon, Lu Changsheng walked towards Lu Xianzhi’s courtyard.

“Dad, I’ve broken through to the middle stage of Energy Refinement.”

At that moment, Lu Xianzhi emerged from the courtyard, his face bright with joy.

Seeing Lu Changsheng, he spoke with excitement.

“Not bad, far stronger than your father back in the day,” Lu Changsheng said, not sparing on praises.

“How could the child dare to compare with you, Father.”

“Back then you relied on your own efforts to progress step by step.”

“If it weren’t for the resources you spent and the environment you provided, how could I have broken through to the middle stage of Energy Refinement so quickly?” Lu Xianzhi quickly responded.

The praise from his father, though thrilling,

he was very aware that his current wealth was entirely due to standing on his father’s shoulders.

Guided by his grandmother’s teachings and interaction with other Lu Family disciples, he knew that many Lu Family Disciples didn’t have conditions as favorable as his brothers and sisters.

His father had used all his cultivation resources to support them.

Especially since he only has a Ninth Grade Spiritual Root, deemed unworthy of cultivation, yet his father chose to treat him no differently.
