Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family

Chapter 476: Azure Phoenix Immortal, The Twelve Capital Demon Gods Scripture! (2)

“Kill!”

The Azure Phoenix Immortal, tall and slender in stature, summoned a green-gold long halberd in her hand, akin to a female war deity, she burst forth from the Great Formation, charging towards the Diamond Ape King.

Her entire body shone with divine splendor, even her hair strands seemed to be tinged with a pale golden luster beneath her armor.

“Boom!”

The green-gold halberd slashed across, erupting with endless radiance, almost tearing the very fabric of the heavens and earth.

“Screech!”

The Azure Phoenix Immortal’s third rank Qing Luan, perched beneath her, also shrieked, its wings unfurled as the winds howled and the hurricane swiftly arose, accompanied by waves of azure flames, targeting the Diamond Ape King.

“Roar—”

Facing this onslaught, the Diamond Ape King roared towards the heavens, its fur shining brilliantly like an indestructible glaze of vajra, its fists, mountainous, hurtled towards the Azure Phoenix Immortal.

From a distance, the third rank Demon Kings, the Thundercloud Sparrow and the Iron-Backed Kui Bear, also joined the fray.
Simultaneously, from within the Azure Phoenix Immortal City, orderly ranks of luan birds ascended to the sky, covering it dome-like, stationed above the Immortal City, they formed a mysterious array, impressively powerful, radiating an intimidating spiritual pressure that bore an indescribable oppression.

“Everyone, please remain calm. Our Azure Phoenix Immortal City has the absolute capability to ensure everyone’s safety…”

“Moving forward, please cooperate with our defense operations. In return for your contributions, early-stage Qi Refinement practitioners will receive one battle merit daily, mid-stage practitioners will receive three, and late-stage practitioners will get ten…”

At this time, the person in charge within the Azure Phoenix Immortal City spoke, their voice spreading throughout the entire city, urging all to lend their strength to the defense.

…

Bi Lake Mountain, Bi Yun Peak.

A simple and spacious Alchemy Room.

Lu Changsheng sat crossed-legged on a cushion, watching the crimson flames flicker beneath the pill furnace.

He could smell waves of fragrance wafting out from the furnace; Lu Changsheng immediately struck the furnace with several spells, followed by a sweeping motion of his hand.

The furnace lid blasted open. Hot waves tumbled and surged as a burst of light sprang forth from within the furnace.

Lu Changsheng instantly took a jade bottle in hand, capturing the radiance inside.

“Not bad, eighteen pills in a single furnace run.”

He looked at the elixir medicines in the jade bottle, his face showing satisfaction.

Soon after, Lu Changsheng went to his own fish nursery, pinched a spell between his fingers, and seven Blackwater Dragon Fish and five Blackwater Dragon Serpents rose to the surface of the water. R̃𝔞Ŋȯ𝐁ΕŚ

“Go!”

Lu Changsheng fed the ‘Spirit Nurturing Elixirs’ from the porcelain jar.

Then, with another gesture of his hands, he alternately cast the ‘Spiritual Light Method’ and ‘Commanding Generals and Soldiers Method’ over the twelve Dao Soldiers, nurturing their innate spirit and dragon nature to accelerate their growth.

After completing this series of tasks, Lu Changsheng sighed, “It’s no wonder there are so few powers that breed Dao Soldiers.”

“This thing is not only expensive but also time-consuming. I find it troublesome with just twelve. How do those powers manage to raise hundreds of them?”

Lu Changsheng lamented as he gazed at the Dao Soldiers in the lake.

He planned to wait until Bai Ling broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage before letting Bai Ling raise the Blackwater Jiao Dragon Dao Soldiers.

Since she practiced the Black Dragon Codex, once she formed her Dragon King Dao Foundation, she would have an enhanced effect on nurturing aquatic species, especially the Blackwater Jiao Dragon Dao Soldiers.

After feeding his Dao Soldiers, Lu Changsheng took a quick tour of the fish nursery and then returned to the Lu Family Mansion to spend time with his wives and visit the son born by Xia Zhiyue.

Even though the child benefited from Xia Zhiyue’s ‘Spirit Nurturing Physique,’ he possessed only a Fifth Grade Spiritual Root.

On this matter, Lu Changsheng wasn’t overly concerned.

With the advancement of his Spiritual Root to Second Grade, his pursuit of spiritual root potential had become much more indifferent.

After all, whether it was Fifth Grade or Fourth Grade, they were almost the same, certainly not up to his own Second Grade.

After having lunch with his wives, Lu Changsheng returned to Changsheng Hall to heal Ling Zixiao with the Nine Treasures Ruyi Bone.

At that moment, a system notification echoed in Lu Changsheng’s mind.

[Congratulations to the host on the breakthrough of thirty descendants to Martial Dao Innate, earning a bloodline effect: Increments in offspring propagation probability by 5%, plus one chance for a lucky draw!]

“Hm, thirty, huh.”

Upon hearing the system notification, Lu Changsheng revealed a slight smile.

After he finished treating Ling Zixiao, the two shared a tender moment before Lu Changsheng made his way to his private cultivation cavern.

[Bloodline Effect: +25% Spiritual Root Probability, +20% Offspring Propagation]

“With such bloodline effects, it would be a pity not to have more children.”

Lu Changsheng noted the effects listed under the bloodline section of his system panel, thinking to himself.

Considering that he had only sired eight children in the last three years, he felt he had been too sluggish.

Currently, the family was still in a semi-seclusion state, with Ling Zixiao still recovering from serious injuries, and Xiao Xiyue stationed in Bi Lake Mountain, he couldn’t very well go out philandering.

Although White Jade Tower was an option, now was not a good time to visit.

“Still, there aren’t many suitable maids left at home now. It’s time to add a few more.”

Lu Changsheng planned to visit White Jade Tower once things had stabilized at home and Ling Zixiao had mostly recovered.

“System, draw the lottery!”

After a moment of wishful thinking, Lu Changsheng silently invoked the command in his mind.

Suddenly, the system roulette emerged, gleaming with golden light.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the cultivation technique “Twelve Capital Demon Spirit Art!”]

[The reward has been distributed to the System Space, the host may check at any time]

A radiant jade scroll pattern appeared, accompanied by the system notification sound.

“Another cultivation technique? And it’s a demonic cultivation technique?”

Lu Changsheng furrowed his brows as he saw the reward.

He really didn’t want to draw cultivation techniques from the lottery wheel anymore.

Because he had so many cultivation techniques, drawing more had become impractical.

The last lottery draw resulted in a cultivation technique, and this time, it was yet another cultivation technique.

Moreover, by the name of it, it was a demonic cultivation technique.

In Jiang Country where he resided, an orthodox force strictly struck down on the Demon Path.

Under such circumstances, he couldn’t possibly cultivate an excellent demonic cultivation technique if given one.

Lu Changsheng looked at the cultivation technique inside the System Space.

[Cultivation Technique: Twelve Capital Demon Spirit Art]

[Grade: Orthodox Level]

[Description: Contemplate on the twelve Capital Demon Spirits, gather demon thoughts, refine the body, mana, and spirit, and sacrifice to the twelve Capital Demon Spirits!]

“Contemplate on the twelve Capital Demon Spirits, refining body, mana, and spirit?”

Lu Changsheng’s eyebrows twitched as he looked at the introduction of the cultivation technique in front of him.

Currently, for his physical body, he had the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art.

For mana, he had the Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture.

But for spirit and divine sense, he only had the “Purple Mansion Nourishing Spirit Art” given to him by Xiao Xiyue.

Since the effects of this technique were average, Lu Changsheng didn’t cultivate it much.

He had always wanted a more powerful spiritual cultivation technique that could give him a shortcut like the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Technique.

“I wonder if this Twelve Capital Demon Spirit Art contains such an advanced spiritual method.”

Lu Changsheng looked at the cultivation technique within the System Space, his mind slightly moved, and he activated it.

Let’s see if this cultivation technique could bring him some surprises.

The next moment, the details, relevant content, and crucial points on how to practice the “Twelve Capital Demon Spirit Art” surged into his mind like divine inspiration.

“The Twelve Capital Demon Spirit Art is one-third Qi Refinement, one-third Body Refinement, and four parts Spirit Refinement.”

“Once cultivated successfully, twelve Demon Spirits are refined within the body, each capable of reaching the same cultivation realm as the cultivator, and the twelve Demon Spirits can form the Twelve Capital Demon Evil Formation…”

“Hiss… this cultivation technique is quite badass.”

Lu Changsheng opened his eyes, digesting the cultivation technique in his mind.

He couldn’t help but marvel at the domineering power of this technique.

It felt even more formidable than the Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture that he was practicing.

It not only cultivated spirit, Qi, and mana jointly.

But also contained various formidable techniques and divine skills.

For instance, contemplating the thoughts of heaven and earth demons, sacrificing twelve Demon Spirits—once the twelve demons reach minor accomplishment, one could basically be invincible at the same rank.

If the twelve Demon Spirits reach major accomplishment, fighting beyond one’s realm is not an issue at all.

There’s also the Life-bound Magic Treasure, the Capital Demon Evil Flag.

Once the seventy-two Demon Evil Flags are raised, they are in no way inferior to the Seven Luminaries Star Sword Formation from the third layer of the Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture.

Beyond these main techniques, there are also “Capital Demon Flame”, “Capital Demon God,” “Capital Demon God Dismantling Technique”, “Capital Demon God Blood Ignition Escape Technique”….

“Do demonic and heretical cultivation techniques usually come with more complementary techniques and divine skills?”

Lu Changsheng pondered as he looked at the “Twelve Capital Demon Spirit Art.”

Of all the cultivation techniques he had obtained from the lottery.

The one with the most included techniques was “Yin Yang Harmony Technique.”

Next would be this “Twelve Capital Demon Spirit Art.”

Although each layer of his Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture had its unique effects and complementary cultivation techniques, comparatively, there were fewer.

“Sigh, but no matter how powerful, it’s useless.”

“I can’t abandon the Seven Luminaries to switch to cultivating this demonic technique.”

“I can only wait till I reach Nascent Soul Stage, then see which family member has the talent for the Demon Path, and pass this technique on.”

“For now, the useful parts of this cultivation technique for me are the ‘Demon God Contemplation Technique’, the mental cultivation method, and the two techniques for escaping danger when one’s life is threatened: the ‘Capital Demon God Dismantling Technique’ and ‘Capital Demon God Blood Ignition Escape Technique’.”

Lu Changsheng shook his head slightly and sighed, somewhat disappointed.

He felt this cultivation technique will just gather dust.
