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

Chapter 2778: Chapter 896: Qu Changge’s Wealth and Generosity, Another Seed of Law!

Despite the fact that the Hong Xuanji before him was not worthy of his regard, he still bestowed a meeting gift.

”Thank you, Uncle.” Hong Xuanji responded with great respect.

Soon after, the small banquet of the Qu Family began.

During this process, apart from Qu Zhenzhen constantly joining in the conversation, it was Hong Xuanji who was quite sociable and knew how to liven up the atmosphere.

He spoke about how his mother-in-law often thought of her brother, and how he himself had inquired about his uncle while he was working with his cousin Lu Quanzhen in the mundane world.

Though Qu Changge was not exactly pleased by Hong Xuanji’s words, he could see that this son-in-law was quite capable in dealing with matters and was favored by both his sister and his niece.

After feasting and drinking to their fill, Qu Changge let Lu Caizhen and Hong Xuanji accompany him for a walk around Bi Lake Mountain.

The two agreed, introducing the situation of Bi Lake Mountain to Qu Changge.

”Xuanji, you broke through Foundation Establishment with external help?”

At this moment, Qu Changge inquired about the situation of this son-in-law.

”In reply to Uncle, Xuanji was inept and initially failed at Foundation Establishment, but fortunately, with the help of Brother Quanzhen, I managed to break through by a fluke.”

Hong Xuanji replied respectfully, with a bit of sentiment in his heart.

Back then, with his wife’s help, he obtained a Foundation Establishment Elixir.

His father, Hong Yi, immediately exhausted the family fortune to purchase Foundation Establishment Spirit Objects for him.

Unfortunately, he still fell short, and the attempt to establish Foundation failed.

After that, his spirits faded, yet with the aid of his eldest brother-in-law Lu Quanzhen, he successfully broke through to Foundation Establishment.

Though it was a Bedrock Shatter Dao Foundation, with little potential for improvement and considered low, he still became a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

”This will not do; as a man, you must have the strength to support a family.”

Qu Changge said plainly.

”Uncle is right.” Hong Xuanji nodded in agreement, not explaining that his potential was exhausted and he couldn’t break through to the Second Layer of Foundation Establishment.

”Since that’s the case, let me give you a hand.”

Qu Changge thought that Lu Changsheng, as a father and father-in-law, might not be so concerned, but as an uncle, he could not stand by.

With that, he lightly raised his hand, and a tremendous hand covered in dark patterns, emanating thick demonic qi, and with sword-like nails appeared.

As this hand emerged, Lu Caizhen and Hong Xuanji couldn’t help but tremble, sensing an incredibly terrifying and intimidating qi mechanism.

”Demon Cultivator...” Hong Xuanji immediately realized that his wife’s uncle very likely was a Demonic Path Cultivator.

The next moment, he seemed to hear the agonized wail of a pained scream, as Qu Changge infused a vast, pure, mysterious, and grand force into his body.

Clearly, this power was far beyond what his body could bear, capable of bursting him apart easily.

But under an irresistible force, it poured into his flesh, meridians, Qi Ocean Core, and Bedrock Shatter Dao Foundation, remodeling them.

”Uncle?” Lu Caizhen witnessed this scene, her expression worried, unsure what her uncle was doing to her husband, feeling only an overwhelming and terrifying aura emanating from him.

”Don’t worry, Uncle is merely reconnecting his path.” Qu Changge softly said.

Hong Xuanji could distinctly feel his body brimming with vitality, with his meridians, Qi Ocean Core condensing, and even the fragmented Dao Foundation being repaired and strengthened.

At the same time, his cultivation technique began to operate subconsciously, seemingly poised to breach the Second Layer of Foundation Establishment.

As his body and flesh condensed, and the cracks in the Bedrock Shatter Dao Foundation reduced, he broke through to the Second Layer of Foundation Establishment.

”This...” Lu Caizhen beside him was simply stunned.

She knew her husband’s Foundation Establishment was achieved with her brother’s help, a Bedrock Shatter Dao Foundation among Bedrock Shatter Dao Foundations, with potential already exhausted.

Thus, despite being at Foundation Establishment for decades, his cultivation remained at the First Layer.

Yet now, under his uncle’s aid, he directly broke through to the Second Layer of Foundation Establishment, showing no sign of stopping.

”Rest assured, such an elevation poses no harm to Xuanji.” Qu Changge said to Lu Caizhen.

The Heavenly and Earthly Treasures used to nourish and sustain Hong Xuanji’s body were none other than the Nascent Soul Origin of Shi Hai True Monarch.

The Spiritual Body Origin of a Nascent Soul Cultivator was of immense value, the most supreme spiritual object, a great supplement.

Back then, Lu Changsheng had used some origin of Tianyuan True Monarch to help Chu Qingyi reform her Golden Core.

Thus employing this Nascent Soul Origin to assist Hong Xuanji, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator with exhausted potential, in refining his physical body and repairing his Dao Foundation, was extravagance to an incredible degree.

”Caizhen, Uncle will also lend you a hand.”

Qu Changge looked at his niece and said, prepared to promote his niece’s cultivation realm.

The Nascent Soul was too distant.

But paving the way for his niece to Core Formation posed no issue.

Lu Caizhen felt a bit apprehensive, thinking such a method absolutely astounding.

At this time, her father’s voice, Lu Changsheng, echoed in her mind.

”Caizhen, your uncle won’t harm you, rest assured.”

The commotion from Hong Xuanji’s elevation naturally did not escape Lu Changsheng on Bi Yun Peak.

Or rather, he never completely trusted this ”cheap” brother-in-law, Qu Changge.

The Taiyi Divine Soul had always been monitoring the latter’s situation.

Seeing Qu Changge so generous, expending such Nascent Soul Spirit Body Origin to help his daughter and son-in-law enhance their cultivation and Dao Foundation, he couldn’t help but be surprised.

Although it was someone else’s Nascent Soul Spirit Body, not burning his own Nascent Soul Origin, using it to aid two Foundation Establishment Cultivators, Hong Xuanji and Lu Caizhen, was akin to recklessness.

Yet it must be said, this kind of purified Nascent Soul Spirit Body Origin was, for cultivators, the most top level spiritual object.

”But is this showing off to me, or slighting me?”

Lu Changsheng felt Qu Changge’s conduct was either flaunting, not hiding it, or expressing dissatisfaction for neglecting his niece.

However, his daughter Lu Caizhen was able to reach the Foundation Establishment Sixth Layer thanks to him, as a father, and Lu Quanzhen’s care and assistance.

Otherwise, given Lu Caizhen’s circumstances of pregnancy, childbirth, managing family affairs, and not being particularly diligent in cultivation daily, even if her Spiritual Root was elevated to Fifth Grade under the Heaven-replenishing Elixir, it would have been challenging to have her current cultivation level.
