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

Chapter 105: The More Children, the Better; No Need for Others to Support You in Old Age!

Three days later.

Lu Changsheng bid farewell to Lu Miaoge and boarded the Spirit Boat Pavilion’s spirit boat, accompanied by his numerous wives and children, to return to Qingzhu Mountain.

This spirit boat was a small, high-speed flying boat that could seat fifteen people.

Apart from Lu Changsheng and his wives and children, the Spirit Boat Pavilion had also arranged for a cultivator to control the spirit boat and two Qi Refining cultivators to provide protection.

This made Lu Changsheng nod in approval, thinking that the 160 spirit stones spent were worth it.

Moreover, with the Spirit Boat Pavilion’s reputation, it was unlikely that anyone would dare to attack their flying boat.

A day and a half later, the spirit boat landed safely on Qingzhu Mountain.

“Let’s go.”

Lu Changsheng led his wives and children off the spirit boat and entered Qingzhu Mountain.

If he had brought so many wives and children back to Qingzhu Mountain in the past, it would have been a big deal.
But now, as a top-grade Talisman Master, his benefits and status have increased.

So, bringing a few wives and children back was no longer an issue.

However, he still needed to register and report to the authorities.

Later, Lu Changsheng led his wives to Qingzhu Mountain Manor and reported to Uncle Fu.

Uncle Fu looked at Lu Changsheng, who was accompanied by eight women, each holding a child, and was at a loss for words.

He recalled the scene from a few years ago when Lu Changsheng had brought back Qu Zhenzhen and two foreign women.

But he couldn’t say anything about it.

After all, Lu Changsheng had never neglected his duties.

He had recently been promoted to a top-grade Talisman Master, and his status in the Lu Family was now higher than Uncle Fu’s.

So, it was impossible for Uncle Fu to say anything.

In the end, he only praised Lu Changsheng, saying that he was young and strong, but should still take care of his body.

As the saying goes, “Youth is unaware of the value of health, and only regrets it when old.”

Lu Changsheng knew that Uncle Fu was reminding him out of kindness.

He smiled and nodded, indicating that he understood.

Then, he led his wives back to his residence in Qingzhu Valley.

When Lu Changsheng brought his wives and children back home, the news spread quickly throughout the Lu Family, causing many to gossip.

“Lu Changsheng brought back three children last time, and now he’s brought back five!”

“Are these all Changseng’s concubines’ children from outside?”

“I heard that Lu Changsheng has dozens of concubines outside, and it seems it’s not just a rumor!”

“Changseng’s wives and concubines, if we count them all, should be over twenty, right?”

“That’s an understatement; the scope is too small. Just in Qingzhu Mountain, there are already twenty.”

“You can tell that Changseng really likes having children!”

“By the way, Changseng brought back so many wives this time; isn’t he supposed to be managing a shop in Jiulong Market?”

“I heard that Changseng became a top-grade Talisman Master not long ago, so this time he’s back to focus on his Talisman cultivation.”

“What? Lu Changsheng has become a top-grade Talisman Master?”

“Wow, top-grade Talisman Master! How did Changseng manage to become one so quickly?”

“It’s unbelievable; he’s so busy with his wives and children, how can he still focus on his Talisman cultivation?”

“Brother Cheng took me to Chunmanlou for three days. During that time, my hands kept shaking and my concentration dropped.” 

“Maybe it’s because of his talent.” 

The Lu Family disciples were discussing this in a flurry.

Many of them knew that Lu Changsheng had achieved this feat, and even advanced to a top-grade Talisman Master, which filled them with envy and admiration. It even refreshed their perspectives. ȒäΝȎᛒÊŞ

After all, the Lu Family had taught them from a young age that everything else was inferior, and only cultivating immortality was superior!

Strive to cultivate, make contributions to the family!

Only by focusing on the Dao, without distractions, can one achieve success in cultivation!

Now, seeing Lu Changsheng, who had taken a completely different path, yet was still leading the way in Talisman Dao, made them wonder if their own efforts were meaningful and worthwhile.

The immortal seedling who had come to the Lu Family with Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but sigh when hearing this.

It felt like a fantasy beyond imagination.

The next day, Patriarch Lu Yuanding came to talk to Lu Changsheng.

In their conversation, Lu Yuanding indicated that Lu Changsheng taking wives and concubines was not a problem.

Bringing them back was also not a problem.

But he hoped that Lu Changsheng would not bring back so many concubines and children in the future.

Or, when he came back, he should be more low-key.

Otherwise, it would have a bad influence.

Facing this conversation, Lu Changsheng naturally nodded in agreement.

He indicated that he had come back this time to accompany his wives and focus on cultivating Talismans.

So, he had brought back a few more concubines and children, but it wouldn’t happen again.

“Alright, you’re aware of your own actions, that’s enough.”

Seeing Lu Changsheng say this, Lu Yuanding didn’t continue to say anything.

After all, this was not a big deal.

It’s just that Lu Changsheng’s behavior had some influence on the atmosphere of Qingzhu Mountain.

So, he came to remind him.

Otherwise, Lu Changsheng, who had already become a top-grade Talisman Master, wouldn’t be causing problems in taking wives and having children.

Moreover, he had said it himself before.

Taking wives and concubines was Lu Changsheng’s freedom, and the Lu Family wouldn’t interfere.

“Is Lu Changsheng really going to take a hundred wives and have several hundred children as he said before?”

Lu Yuanding thought to himself after leaving Lu Changsheng’s residence.

When he first heard this, he thought it was just an exaggeration.

But now, he felt that Lu Changsheng was really putting it into action.

Proving that his words were not empty.

Thinking of Lu Changsheng’s speed in taking wives and having children, Lu Yuanding’s mouth twitched slightly.

He suddenly felt grateful that his daughter, Second Daughter, hadn’t married Lu Changsheng.

Otherwise, she would probably be pregnant with her third child by now.

After returning to Qingzhu Mountain, Lu Changsheng lived a simple life, and he rarely went out.

Every day was spent cultivating, crafting Talismans, and accompanying his wives and children.

Occasionally, he would chat with Li Feiyu, watching him teach the children martial arts.

However, the children were still young, and this stage was just the foundation of martial arts training.

They hadn’t truly started practicing martial arts yet.

They would have to wait until they were around eleven or twelve years old, when their bodies were more developed.

Before long, more than a month had passed.

During this time, Jiang Louyue and Yu Yao gave birth to their children.

Among them, Jiang Louyue’s child had a Spirit Root, but only a ninth-grade Spirit Root.

Lu Changsheng’s children were growing at a slower rate compared to last year, but were still increasing in an orderly manner.

Just a few days ago, the sixty-third child had become pregnant.

Today was also the day of the Lu Family Spirit Root Testing Ceremony.

Lu Changsheng had five children participating in this Spirit Root Testing Ceremony.

Through the detection, the situation of the five children was as he had known.

Only Lu Xianzhi, the seventh child, was detected with a Spirit Root.

The quality of the Spirit Root was also as he had guessed.

A ninth-grade Spirit Root, biased towards wood.

Although it was the lowest ninth-grade Spirit Root, it still made his mother, Lu Yuzhu, extremely happy.

It made Lu Changsheng’s other wives and concubines envious.

After all, having a Spirit Root, no matter how poor, was still a Spirit Root, and in the future, they could cultivate to become immortals.

From then on, they would be different from ordinary people, with different fates, and would be on different paths!

Considering the feelings of his other wives and children, Lu Changsheng didn’t make a big fuss about it.

He treated it as a normal test.

As for Lu Xianzhi’s cultivation, there was no need to rush for now.

He was still too young, only six years old.

His body had not fully developed.

Starting cultivation too early was not a good thing.

In the cultivation world, it was common for children to start learning at the age of twelve.

However, at this stage, they could start building a foundation.

Using heavenly materials and earthly treasures to nourish his body and lay a solid foundation, which would help him win at the starting line in the future.

Lu Changsheng was not stingy.

Every month, he would take out ten spirit stones to buy foundation-building pills for Lu Xianzhi to supplement his body and lay a solid foundation.

After all, he was the first child to have a Spirit Root.

Even if the Spirit Root was only ninth-grade, Lu Changsheng was willing to cultivate him well.

Moreover, when Lu Xianzhi started cultivating, his own cultivation would also increase.

It was equivalent to spending money on himself.

“Ah, no wonder ordinary cultivators don’t want to get married and have children.”

“If the child has a Spirit Root, they have to be cultivated.”

“And this cultivation, even if it’s just casual, would cost a lot of spirit stones every month, and it’s not a small amount from childhood to adulthood.”

Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but sigh.

Like Lu Ping’an and others who practiced martial arts, it didn’t cost much money.

Every day, they would eat spirit rice and spiritual food, which was enough to make them become martial arts prodigies.

But Lu Xianzhi was different.

Thinking about his seven children who had Spirit Roots, and the six who would be detected later, he would have to spend money to cultivate them, laying a solid foundation.

This would be equivalent to an additional seventy spirit stones in expenses every month.

And as the number of children with Spirit Roots increased, the expenses would continue to rise.

“Indeed, raising children is not easy, no matter where you are.”

“The more you have, the harder it is to raise them.”

Lu Changsheng shook his head and sighed.

If he were an ordinary Talisman master, even a top-grade Talisman master, he wouldn’t dare to have so many children.

Because learning a skill not only required initial investment but also continuous expenses to practice and improve the Talisman rate.

It was impossible to be like him, without worrying about extra expenses.

“However, the more children, the better, and I won’t need others to support me in my old age!”

“When the children grow up, I’ll be at ease.”

Lu Changsheng comforted himself.

Late at night.

After the event…

“Husband, do you think Quanzhen, Yuzhen, and Miaozhen have Spirit Roots?”

Qu Zhenzhen leaned lazily in Lu Changsheng’s arms and asked with watery eyes. 

Today, Lu Xianzhi was detected with a Spirit Root, which made her think of her three children.

“Regardless of whether they have a Spirit Root or not, they are all our children.”

Lu Changsheng’s hand gently slid across the white and tender skin.

Qu Zhenzhen had given birth to three children for him, two of whom possessed a Spirit Root.

However, he didn’t want his wives to focus too much on the children’s Spirit Roots.

After all, he had suffered a lot because of this in the past.

In the end, he had many children, and most of them didn’t have a Spirit Root. As a result, he gradually let go and became more open-minded.

Someone like Qu Zhenzhen, if she thought too much, would worry all day.

“Mm-hmm.”

Upon hearing Lu Changsheng’s words, Qu Zhenzhen hugged him and nodded gently.

She didn’t have high expectations for cultivation.

Whether the children had a Spirit Root or not wasn’t a big deal to her.

She just wanted to live a simple life with the person she loved.

It was just that she thought Lu Changsheng would prefer children with a Spirit Root.

After all, Lu Changsheng had been promoting the idea of having many children, hoping to have a few with good Spirit Root qualifications, and then cultivate them well.

Now that she heard Lu Changsheng say this, she felt much more at ease.

Before long, another month had passed.

On this day, in the practice room…

“Whoosh!”

Lu Changsheng opened his eyes and let out a gentle breath.

His entire body was filled with a fierce aura, with seven sword energies surrounding him, manifesting both internally and externally, fierce and majestic.

“I’ve finally succeeded.”

Lu Changsheng looked inward at his Dantian.

He saw that the spiritual energy in his Dantian had transformed into a seven-colored aura.

This represented that his original cultivation method, the Return to Origin Technique, had completely transformed into the Seven Stars Great Freedom Sword Technique.

“The Seven Stars Great Freedom Sword Technique, although more difficult to practice than the Return to Origin Technique, requires a much larger amount of spiritual energy to cultivate.”

“The cultivation method can be divided into two parts.”

“One part is to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which helps to increase spiritual power.”

“The other part is the heart of the technique, which is the understanding of the mysteries of the cultivation method.”

“The Seven Stars Great Freedom Sword Technique was obtained through the system, which allowed me to skip the second part.”

“I didn’t need to spend time comprehending the mysteries of the technique, and I could cultivate at the fastest speed.”

“This also means that I can cultivate the Seven Stars Great Freedom Sword Technique, a Genuine Level technique, at a speed that’s not slower than the Return to Origin Technique, and might even be faster!”

Lu Changsheng’s sword energy converged, his breathing stabilized, and his eyes shone brightly.

Although the Seven Stars Great Freedom Sword Technique was difficult to practice, for someone like Lu Changsheng, it was even easier than the Return to Origin Technique.

Because this sword technique was equivalent to being engraved in his mind.

He had a thorough understanding of it, and his cultivation would not have any mistakes.

“Now, my spiritual power has all transformed into seven-star spiritual power, and I can start using the seven-star sword energy to remove the poison of the pill and take it without any worries.”

“By taking the pill and cultivating, I’m afraid it will only take two to three years for me to reach the peak of the Qi Refining seventh stage!”

“And this situation won’t affect my foundation.”

“Moreover, with the powerful seven-star spiritual power, breaking through to the Qi Refining eighth stage will be even simpler for me.”

Lu Changsheng chuckled.

He was full of praise for the Seven Stars Great Freedom Sword Technique.

He finally understood why this technique could occupy a prominent position in the cultivation world.

The advantages of a high-level technique were not something that could be explained in a few words.

After completing the transformation to the Seven Stars Great Freedom Sword Technique, Lu Changsheng didn’t continue to cultivate. Instead, he went out to relax, chatted with his wives, and played with his children.

After all, he wasn’t someone who was obsessed with cultivation.

Night fell.

While eating, Lu Changsheng learned about something.

The Purple Mist Secret Realm was about to open.

A core high-stage expert from the Lu Family, accompanied by several elite young disciples, would be heading to the Purple Mist Secret Realm.

Lu Changsheng had heard of this Purple Mist Secret Realm, but wasn’t too clear about it.

It wasn’t until Xiao Yueru explained it to him that he understood what the Purple Mist Secret Realm was about.

This was a secret realm jointly controlled by several major immortal sects in the Jiang Country.

It could also be considered a Spirit Vain blessed land.

Inside, there were many opportunities and treasures.

Every ten years, the major immortal sects would open the secret realm and send their disciples to explore and train.

Besides the immortal sects’ own disciples, they would also allow young talents from other families and rogue cultivators to enter.

Because, as long as they entered the secret realm and gained something valuable, they would have to go through the major immortal sects’ hands when they came out.

In this case, the major immortal sects would naturally be happy to let more rogue cultivators enter.

Other rogue cultivators and young talents from families would still rush to the Purple Mist Secret Realm, even if they knew the risks.

Because, besides the opportunities and treasures, there was also the main material for refining Foundation Establishment pills.

Moreover, if they obtained rare opportunities and precious treasures inside, they could exchange them for Foundation Establishment pills with the major immortal sects.

Hearing this, Lu Changsheng immediately understood.

The Lu Family was going to the Purple Mist Secret Realm for the Foundation Establishment pills.

After all, the Lu Family’s current situation was not optimistic.

They urgently needed a new Foundation Establishment grandmaster to emerge.

If they could obtain a Foundation Establishment pill, and with the Lu Family’s strength, they could collect a few Foundation Establishment spiritual objects.

Who knows, the Lu Family might be able to give birth to a new Foundation Establishment grandmaster!

“Will the Elder Lady also be going to the Purple Mist Secret Realm?”

Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but ask.

Lu Miaoge had a Qi Refining seventh-stage cultivation and was considered one of the young elites of the Lu Family.

“The Purple Mist Secret Realm is very dangerous, so the family naturally won’t let her go.”

“This time, it’s Uncle Yuanshan who’s leading the team, along with Brother Miaokun and Sister Miaofa.”

Lu Miaoyun spoke up.

This wasn’t a secret.

As a direct descendant of the Lu Family, she also knew some things.

Lu Changsheng nodded.

He knew that Lu Yuanshan was a high-stage expert of the Lu Family, with a Qi Refining ninth-stage cultivation.

As for Lu Miaokun and Lu Miaofa, he wasn’t too clear about them.

But he estimated they had around Qi Refining sixth or seventh-stage cultivation.

“I wonder if the Lu Family can gain anything in the Purple Mist Secret Realm.”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself.

He still hoped that the Lu Family could gain something in the Purple Mist Secret Realm.

Get a Foundation Establishment pill.

After all, if the Lu Family could give birth to a new Foundation Establishment grandmaster, he wouldn’t have to worry about the Lu Family’s ancestral matters.

He was still worried about the old ancestor’s situation.

Although he had seen the Lu Family’s old ancestor once before.

He felt that the old ancestor didn’t seem like someone who was about to die.

But during this time, he had also heard some rumors about this.

He knew that what Yu Ningrong said about the Lu Family’s old ancestor not living past ten years wasn’t just a baseless rumor.

“Foundation Establishment pills, Foundation Establishment is also a matter of time for me.”

“Even if I cultivate the Seven Stars Great Freedom Sword Technique and the Hundred Treasure Refinement Body Tempering Technique, and I have two Foundation Establishment spiritual objects, the probability of Foundation Establishment is still not high.”

“Foundation Establishment pill is basically monopolized by a few major immortal sects, and only occasionally flows out.”

“Once it flows out, it’s basically contested by other powers, making it difficult for Rogue Cultivators to obtain Foundation Establishment pill.”

Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but think about his own future.

Although he cultivated the Hundred Treasure Refinement Body Tempering Technique and the Seven Stars Great Freedom Sword Technique, two major Genuine Level techniques, and relied on the Foundation Establishment spiritual object, the probability of success was estimated to be around 60-70%, or even higher.

But in Lu Changsheng’s view, this probability was still too low.

He must have a Foundation Establishment pill to be assured.

Otherwise, the risk was too great.

After all, if the Foundation Establishment failed, the consequences would be severe: at best, he would be injured and his cultivation would regress; at worst, his meridians would be damaged, rendering him a cripple, or even resulting in his death.

In such a situation, without a guarantee of at least 90% success, Lu Changsheng wouldn’t dare to take the risk.

“Places like the Purple Mist Secret Realm are obviously not accessible to me.”

“I don’t know if the system can draw a trashy pill, giving me a Foundation Establishment Pill.”

“If I had a top-grade Foundation Establishment pill produced by the system, I could then search for a physical Foundation Establishment spiritual object, and then I’d be close to succeeding.”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself.

He was very much looking forward to the system giving him a Foundation Establishment pill before he prepared for Foundation Establishment.

That way, he wouldn’t have to worry about the Foundation Establishment.
