Longevity Reward Redemption: The Immortal Clan Starts with Farmers

89: Another lifespan reward is here: the Hundred-Step Flying Sword!Chen Changsheng listened to Chuanwen’s words and lowered his head to ponder.

The Local Chieftains of Ailao Mountain were like a persistent plaster to the imperial court, frequently coming down the mountain to rebel. Although their military strength was not flourishing and they were quickly suppressed.

However, once they suffered a setback, they would shrink back into Ailao Mountain. Ailao Mountain was not a small hill, but a continuous mountain range; even if the imperial army went in, they could not find them.

Therefore, the imperial court sealed off the mountain, forbidding personnel and supplies from entering, which caused all the produce of Ailao Mountain to remain in the mountains, wasted in the hands of the Local Chieftains.

”Good, Chuanwen, your father is not some old stubborn fool. See if there is a way to connect with the Local Chieftains of Ailao Mountain; we will trade the salt and iron from the foot of the mountain for Spiritual Crystals!”

Chen Changsheng guessed that those Local Chieftains held Spiritual Crystals, likely having discovered some scattered Spiritual Crystal mines. Since the Local Chieftains did not know how to Cultivate, the Spiritual Crystals were useless to them, so trading should be easy.

”Father, I will go investigate the communication channels between the Zhao Family and the Local Chieftains right now!”

Hearing his father had made up his mind, Chuanwen stood up to get to work, but Chen Changsheng held him back.

”At this time, our Chen Family cannot come forward. After all, this matter violates the laws of the imperial court. Leave it to Zhao Song and his Black Ice Platform to do!”

”Between Longkou County and Longwei County, there is a Jade Dragon Mountain Range. Have Zhao Song’s Black Ice Platform establish a stronghold on that mountain. It will allow us to extend our influence to both counties and make it convenient to enter and exit Ailao Mountain!”

Chuanwen nodded after hearing this. The Jade Dragon Mountain Range connected to Ailao Mountain, so entering Ailao Mountain from there was indeed easier and more convenient.

”Father, I understand. Any other instructions?”

Chuanwen nodded and then looked at Chen Changsheng.

Chen Changsheng rubbed his chin, looking Chuanwen up and down, and said with a smile:

”Our development is currently smooth sailing. The only remaining grudge is with the Lin Family in the Prefecture City, but their young master has already been scared out of his wits. Chuanwen! You need to put your mind into your Family. Give me a Grandson soon; your eldest brother’s son is already two years old!”

As expected, Chen Changsheng began to urge Chen Chuanwen to have children. Chuanwen’s face immediately became awkward; he was still very young and had thin skin when it came to matters between men and women.

”Father, don’t worry about this; Xiao Wen and I have plans!”

After saying this, Chuanwen ran away without looking back!

Watching Chuanwen’s flustered figure, Chen Changsheng chuckled and comfortably stroked Howling Heaven lying at his feet. With him urging the second son, he reckoned the second Grandson would be coming soon, and his own Lifespan reward was not far off!

In the following days, for the convenience of taking up his post in the county town, Chen Chuanwu bought a house in the county government office area and moved his Family there.

Actually, this was also the reason Chen Changsheng urged him. Ever since Chuanwu returned, those coming to the door to give gifts made Chen Changsheng extremely annoyed, so he had Chuanwu move away. Of course, before leaving, he did not forget to urge them to have a second child soon, which made Juaner blush furiously.

As for the second son Chuanwen, he and Zhao Song quietly investigated the trade channels the Zhao Family once had with the Local Chieftains. However, since the Zhao Family had fallen, the people under them had scattered like birds and beasts, making the investigation quite difficult.

Chen Changsheng compared his martial arts progress with Chuanjie. There was no way around it; Chen Changsheng’s Aptitude was too poor. He was currently only at the Flesh Refining Realm and had been caught up by his third son!

Fortunately, he had the five elements soup to help; otherwise, Chen Changsheng felt he would never be able to enter the Innate Realm in his entire life.

Time was always cheap; in the blink of an eye, half a year passed!

As usual, after Chen Changsheng finished practicing martial arts, he began petting Howling Heaven and drank tea to relax.

Who would have thought that at this moment, the System’s voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

”Achievement Reward: The first descendant of the Chen Family has advanced to the Qi Refining Realm. Special reward: one hundred years of Lifespan!”

After hearing the System reward, Chen Changsheng’s eyes lit up. Over these past six months, for the sake of the Lifespan reward, he had often urged the married brothers to have children, annoying them quite a bit.

Unexpectedly, there was a glimmer of hope; the Lifespan reward actually came from an achievement reward.

Chen Changsheng pondered for a moment. Chuanwu had successfully sensed Qi half a year ago, but his Realm was too unstable and likely had not been recognized by the System. After he spent half a year using fifty Spiritual Crystals to solidify his Foundation, he completely entered the Qi Refining First Layer, which was when he received the System’s recognition.

Chen Changsheng now had 57 years of Lifespan remaining, and adding one hundred years was enough for him to redeem rewards from the Family treasury!

At the very least, 【 Medicinal Pill: Spiritual Root Bone-Changing Pill (Yellow) 】 was enough for him to redeem; its redemption price was only 120 years.

Moreover, after buying the 【 spiritual plant manual (mortal) 】 last time, a new treasure was refreshed.

【 Spirit-Seeking Compass (Yellow) (One-time use): Can search for Spiritual Vein nodes below Yellow-grade within a radius of one thousand li, to find a place with a Spiritual Vein. 】

【 Redemption price: One hundred and thirty years 】

Chen Changsheng immediately fell into a dilemma. Now that their whole Family was about to step into a Cultivation Family, they certainly couldn’t use Spiritual Crystals to Cultivate in the future, as no amount of Spiritual Crystals could support them.

They definitely needed to find a place with a Spiritual Vein; only an endless Spiritual Vein could support the Family.

Likewise, Chuanjie was already thirteen and a half years old this year; in another four and a half years, he would pass the age for taking the Spiritual Root Bone-Changing Pill.

Once he spent his Lifespan to redeem the 【 Spirit-Seeking Compass 】, could Chen Changsheng save up another hundred-plus years of Lifespan within four years?

However, the Family treasury was Chen Changsheng’s most important secret, which he absolutely could not tell anyone, so he didn’t even have anyone to discuss it with.

Just at this moment, Chuanjie came out to practice martial arts holding an iron sword.

The Chen Family members had always been good at saber techniques; after all, they started with the Five Tigers Gate-Severing Saber, but Chuanjie happened to like the sword and spent all day learning the Fuliu Sword from his mother.

Last time, Chuanwen brought Steamed Bun and Howling Heaven to ambush the Lin Family’s Innate expert and obtained a copy of ”Thirteen Swords of the Raging Tide” from him. Chuanjie, that guy, became even more obsessed and studied it every day.

”Chuanjie, show your father the sword technique you just learned!”

Seeing Chuanjie practicing sword, Chen Changsheng put the matter of redemption in his mind aside for now, wanting to test the quality of his martial arts.

”Father, watch carefully; my sword technique is not simple!”

Chen Chuanjie said with a chuckle and began to demonstrate his sword technique. Initially, it was still the light and agile Fuliu Sword, but then each strike became heavier than the last, actually integrating the essence of the ”Thirteen Swords of the Raging Tide” into it!

Chen Changsheng watched and nodded silently. This guy was truly a budding talent in the Dao of the sword; he had actually grasped the true meaning of two sword techniques and could execute them with ease.

”Father, look at this sword move I created—Hundred Step Flying Sword!”

The more Chuanjie practiced, the more energetic he became. Then, with a long whistle, the long sword left his hand and flew off at high speed, as fast as a shooting star. This speed was something even experts could not react to.

However, what shocked Chen Changsheng the most was that when the sword reached one hundred steps, it actually cleverly turned a corner!

This...

Chen Changsheng’s pupils shook violently. Although the sword lost control after just turning the corner, this sword technique was already astonishing enough!

This move already had the charm of an Immortal controlling a sword!
