Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

Chapter 422: Chapter 177: Xiao Xiyue Leaves, Awakening the Blood Talisman Spiritual Body!_2

“`

“Next time Fairy Xiao comes, Changsheng, you can let me meet her and have a chat with her,”

“After all, Fairy Xiao is willing to have a child with you, she must be accepting you in her heart,”

Lu Miaoge said softly to her husband.

She knew that even though her husband had many wives and concubines, he still didn’t fully understand women’s thoughts.

“Wife, you are right,”

...
Lu Changsheng nodded.

Xiao Xiyue had a child with him, only lacking an official status.

Sooner or later, she would have to meet and get to know his other wives and concubines.

Now it was a good time to use the child as a bridge for communication.

…

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, three months passed.

Because he was preparing to visit Jiuxiao Immortal City, Lu Changsheng spent most of his time making talismans.

Preparing for his talisman formation.

But while making talismans was important, he did not neglect his duties.

He worked diligently every day and all four remaining maids became pregnant.

The total number of his offspring reached one hundred and fifty-three.

“Husband, you’ve received a letter,”

One day, Lu Miaoyun handed a letter to Lu Changsheng.

“A letter for me?”

Lu Changsheng took the letter.

It was from Xiao Xiyue.

There were prohibitions on the letter.

If forced open, the letter would self-destruct.

Lu Changsheng broke the prohibition and read the contents.

In the letter, Xiao Xiyue wrote that everything was well with her.

Currently, she was being assigned a mission by her sect and was preparing to go to the Green River Marketplace as the Record Chief, so she wouldn’t be able to come for a short period.

Being a Record Chief was a training treatment only given to core disciples of a sect.

It would broaden her horizons and help her understand the Cultivation World.

There was hardly any danger.

The first few pages of the letter were filled with mundane daily affairs and the longing for her daughter, Lu Wangshu.

At the end of the letter, Xiao Xiyue wrote that she had found information about the Blood Talisman Spiritual Body and the Green Jade Luan Bird in her sect.

The Blood Talisman Spiritual Body is a latent type of Talisman Path physique.

Naturally compatible with the Great Dao of Talismans.

This physique allows cultivators who have it to be exceptionally talented and make rapid progress on the path of talisman crafting.

In addition, the Blood Talisman Spiritual Body can use one’s own spiritual blood to enhance the success rate of talisman making.

Furthermore, one can burn their spiritual blood and life span to feed a talisman and improve the grade of a talisman by a large margin.

However, both methods resulted in substantial self-harm.

“Just as I had guessed, this Blood Talisman Spiritual Body is a type of Talisman Path physique,”

“Use spiritual blood to improve talisman making success rate, burn life span and spiritual blood to improve a talisman’s grade,”

Lu Changsheng muttered to himself as he read the information about the Blood Talisman Spiritual Body.

The letter also mentioned how to awaken the Blood Talisman Spiritual Body.

One method would be through some kind of Blood Sacrifice Ritual to awaken the spiritual body,

But Xiao Xiyue did not provide details about this ritual.

The other method would be through the Blood Refinement Method, using Second Rank spiritual blood to continuously stimulate the body and thus activate the spiritual body.

This method required that the spiritual blood must have a mild attribute.

Otherwise, during the stimulation process, it could cause significant self-injury.

“Blood Sacrifice Ritual, Blood Refinement Method,”

“This Blood Talisman Spiritual Body, both its effects and awakening methods are, as the name implies, related to blood,”

Lu Changsheng said with a sigh as he read about the Blood Talisman Spiritual Body and its awakening methods in the letter.

The Second method, the Blood Refinement Method, was explained by Xiao Xiyue in the letter,

Which seemed quite straightforward to Lu Changsheng.

He planned to purchase some Second Rank spiritual blood later and use the method described in the letter to awaken his spiritual body,

To see how effective this ‘Blood Talisman Spiritual Body’ truly was.

As for the requirement that the spiritual blood must be mild, Lu Changsheng ignored it entirely.

He practiced the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art, and his physical body was as tough as a superior magic artifact.

He was not the least bit worried that such stimulation would cause him any harm.

As for the information about the Green Jade Luan Bird in the letter, it was about incubation and feeding,

For incubation, a nest should be cast from Warm Jade,

Then, use ingredients like Green Jade Qiong Lotus, Red Yang Snow Ginseng, bile of the Azure Scale Snake, and powder of Yuan Chen Crystal mixed with Spirit Stone powder to make a spiritual liquid, and pour it into the nest made of Warm Jade.

Place the egg of the Green Jade Luan Bird in the nest, and then nourish it with spiritual power and mana every day, and in about three to six months, the spiritual pet egg would be incubated successfully.

“Incubating a spiritual pet egg really isn’t easy,”

Seeing the incubation method, Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh.

Just these materials alone would cost him thousands of spirit stones.

“`

And the price of this Green Jade Luan Bird egg was estimated to be just a few thousand Spirit Stones.

This is also why many people are unwilling to raise Spiritual Pets.

Hatching, feeding, waiting for growth, not only consumes time and energy, but also financial resources.

“However, I remember seeing these Qingyu Snow Lotuses and Chiyang Snow Ginsengs in Meng Yibai’s Storage Bag back then.”

Lu Changsheng’s eyebrows raised slightly.

He vaguely remembered seeing these kinds of Spiritual Medicine and Spiritual Materials when he cleared out Meng Yibai’s Storage Bag.

And he hadn’t dealt with these Spiritual Medicines and Materials yet.

Right away, Lu Changsheng began searching for these Spiritual Medicines and Materials in his several Storage Bags.

A moment later.

Lu Changsheng found the materials needed to hatch the Green Jade Luan Bird from the Storage Bags.

“It seems that Meng Yibai had already prepared all this beforehand, only I never knew it,”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself as he looked at these Spiritual Medicines and Materials.

He then made a nest with the Sky Blue Warm Jade in his courtyard.

After that, he prepared the Spiritual Liquid according to the formula and placed the pet egg inside it.

As for nurturing it with mana, Lu Changsheng directly called over Lu Miaoyun.

He asked his wife, Lu Miaoyun, to come and nurture the pet egg daily.

After all, it would take three months to half a year of nurturing to hatch the Green Jade Luan Bird.

He didn’t have the leisure for that, nor would he always be at home, so it was better to leave it to his wife.

Once the Green Jade Luan Bird hatched later on, he would also leave it for Lu Miaoyun to look after.

“Husband, what kind of Spiritual Beast egg is this?”

Lu Miaoyun asked curiously after listening to Lu Changsheng’s instructions.

“The seller said it’s the egg of some kind of flying Demon Beast.”

“As for which specific Demon Beast, you’ll know once it hatches, Yun’er,”

Lu Changsheng said with a smile.

It was not that he intentionally kept it a secret.

He simply felt there was a certain anticipation this way.

Upon hearing this, Lu Miaoyun did not ask further and expressed that she would take good care of the Spiritual Pet egg.

…

Half a month later.

Lu Changsheng spent two thousand four hundred Spirit Stones to buy three gourds of Spiritual Blood.

This so-called Second Rank Spiritual Blood was actually the blood of Second Rank Demon Beasts.

In Red Leaf Valley Market, as long as one didn’t specify a certain type of Demon Beast blood, it was still possible to buy some.

“Three gourds of blood should be enough,”

Lu Changsheng looked at his three gourds of Demon Beast blood and thought to himself.

He then went to his Practice Room, took out a large vat, and poured all the Spiritual Blood from one gourd into it.

This one gourd of Spiritual Blood, naturally, was not as little as it appeared.

These gourds, like Storage Bags, could hold several vats of liquid.

One gourd of Spiritual Blood poured in, immediately filling more than half of the large vat.

“Gulu gulu gulu—”

This portion of Spiritual Blood came from a Demon Beast known as the Blazing Fire Lion.

Therefore, this blood was like magma, still emitting rolling heat.

Lu Changsheng’s expression remained calm as he stripped off his clothes and entered the vat.

Then, following the Blood Refinement Method written by Xiao Xiyue, he used the Spiritual Blood to stimulate his flesh.

During this process, the Demon Beast blood continuously stimulated every inch of his skin and flesh, making his body seem to reveal all sorts of winding blood-colored runes.

It looked mysterious and terrifying.

“Hum hum hum—”

As Lu Changsheng continuously practiced the Blood Refinement Method, the Demon Beast blood from the vat entered his body through his pores, traveled along his meridians to his Dantian.

There, the originally faint and sporadic blood veins in his Dantian gradually became clearer during the process.

Lu Changsheng knew that once this blood vein was activated, the Blood Talisman Spiritual Body would successfully awaken.

He opened his eyes, flicked his fingers, and the two gourds beside him automatically opened, pouring the Spiritual Blood directly into the vat.

This three different kinds of Spiritual Blood were already quite domineering on their own.

Mixed together, they were even more exceptionally stimulating to the human body.

However, as a Foundation Establishment Cultivator who had also been cultivating the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art, Lu Changsheng naturally had no fear of this mere Demon Beast blood.

As the Spiritual Blood continuously surged, stimulating the blood vein in the Dantian, the blood vein became clearer and clearer, forming a mysterious rhythm.

After a long while.

“Hum—”

An unusual aura spread out from within Lu Changsheng.

It caused the blood vein in his Dantian to fully emerge, clearly visible.

And at this moment, his body was covered in bizarre and mysterious blood-colored runes.

But in the blink of an eye, these blood runes gradually faded and disappeared from view.

“So this is the Blood Talisman Spiritual Body,”

Lu Changsheng opened his eyes, aware that he had successfully awakened the Blood Talisman Spiritual Body.
