Chapter 375: Chapter 374: Current Situation of the Lu Family (Second Update, Please Subscribe)
While contemplating future matters, a sweet voice suddenly came.
"Husband!"
With a black dress resembling a sorceress, the Daoist Monarch Qinglian arrived.
Continuously approaching, she sat on his lap, like a docile bird.
"Husband, do you like me or her?" Daoist Monarch Qinglian asked again, her words carrying a charm like a melodious tune.
Listening to the soft voice, Lu Xuanji thought of the intense battle on the bed, left and right, with the fires of battle never-ending.
That tender scene, that alluring silhouette, left an indelible memory.
"By the way, are you all doing well?"
Lu Xuanji asked.
"I want more!"
True Monarch Qinglian said, a bit emotionally moved.
"This place isn’t suitable, it’s a workplace!"
"This place is perfect, you men love this setting!"
"Demoness, don’t malign me!"
"No, you are just that kind of person!"
A great battle broke out again, but the battlefield kept changing, shifting from one place to another.
The array of the hall operated, making it difficult for the outside world to see anything here.
After a long time, the war ended.
Both tidied everything up, and returned to their dignified appearances.
"Will you always remain divided like this?" Lu Xuanji asked.
"Being separated is also good!" True Monarch Qinglian said: "The essence of the Yin Yang Illusionary Body lies in splitting into two, one bearing malice, one bearing kindness, one bearing reason, one bearing emotion. In theory, the higher the realm integration, the greater the benefit!"
"But as Qinglian is just Seventh Grade, at most reaching the Peak of Void Refining, we need to merge together."
"Just with my aptitude, there’s still some hope for Divinity Transformation, but little hope for Refining Void!"
Thinking about some future issues, Daoist Monarch Qinglian felt a headache and simply stopped considering them.
"Have you stepped into the Golden Core Tenth Transformation?"
True Monarch Qinglian asked.
"Unspeakable!"
Lu Xuanji responded with a smile.
"Unspeakable!" True Monarch Qinglian pondered: "Could it be you have taken a step further?"
Going further would be the Golden Core Eleventh Transformation.
But does that realm exist?
She had never heard of any prodigy stepping into the Golden Core Eleventh Transformation, never even heard of it.
"Unspeakable!"
Lu Xuanji said: "In this world, there are hidden causes and effects. Regarding certain matters, just think about them in your mind, but never speak them out. Because the moment you speak, some existence might become aware, might eavesdrop."
True Monarch Qinglian nodded: "I understand!"
In the cosmos, some matters involve mysterious taboos, it’s best not to ask, not to speak, not to inquire.
"When will you reach Nascent Soul?"
True Monarch Qinglian asked.
"Still need a hundred years!" Lu Xuanji said.
"Hundred years, a bit long!"
True Monarch Qinglian said: "In a hundred years, you will be seven hundred years old!"
"Is a seven-hundred-year-old Nascent Soul considered old? Not at all!" Lu Xuanji lightly smiled, "My cultivation path doesn’t seek speed, but stability!"
True Monarch Qinglian was speechless, definitely stable enough.
In the past, some cultivators became Harmonization great powers at five hundred, reached Tribulation Crossing at a thousand, and soared to immortality.
This is historically, the youngest record of achieving immortality.
Some prodigies reached Golden Core at a hundred, Nascent Soul at two hundred, extremely fast.
But Lu Xuanji reached Foundation Establishment at fifty-plus, Purple Mansion at a hundred and ninety, Golden Core at four hundred thirty, Nascent Soul at seven hundred, such speed is not fast, but resoundingly stable.
Step by step, all the way, without much difficulty.
Again, the two shared intimacy, being close for a long time before parting.
True Monarch Qinglian went into seclusion again.
...
Searching again for a while, Ye Wanyi was in seclusion, stabilizing her foundation.
Ning Xue was also in seclusion, organizing the harvest.
Everyone was extremely busy.
Instead, Lu Xuanji seemed a bit bored.
At his realm, seclusion was no longer useful, just waiting for a hundred years, letting the Golden Core mature into Nascent Soul.
Then, face the Nascent Soul Three Tribulations.
Feeling a bit bored, Lu Xuanji left Purple Sun Mountain and returned to the Lu Family.
After the Beast Tide, the Lu Family’s losses were not small, but fundamentally unharmed.
Upon reaching the Lu Family, its cultivators were rebuilding, repairing damaged arrays, organizing devastated spiritual fields, and clearing collapsed peaks and pitted grounds from the great war, the Lu Family was busy and vibrant.
"Greetings, Clan Leader!"
"The Clan Leader has returned!"
"The Clan Leader is a Golden Core Great Cultivator, with hopes for Nascent Soul in the future. I wonder if I could become Golden Core!"
"That’s a Golden Core, living for a thousand years!"
"The Clan Leader is still young, black hair like ink, white clothes like snow, like an immortal, but I am old!"
Everyone, seeing the Clan Leader returned, stopped their work to pay respects.
Work can’t finish in a moment, but the Clan Leader is extremely rare to see.
Many young cultivators eagerly approached, looking at the Clan Leader as if seeing a living legend, a living totem.
The Lu Family, since its founding, has been nearly two thousand years old, and the Lu Family’s ancestor established it relying on Foundation Establishment Second Layer cultivation;
Later, a Purple Mansion Great Cultivator appeared, making it a Purple Mansion family;
Throughout ups and downs, facing several extermination crises, yet challenging rebuilds.
The Lu Family birthed three Purple Mansion powerhouses in total, a local tyrant in Qingshui Commandery but fairly common in Chu Country.
Until Clan Leader Lu Xuanji was born, leading the Lu Family to break class shackles, entering into a Golden Core Clan.
Now, the Lu Family has three Golden Core cultivators, over two hundred Purple Mansion cultivators, more than ten thousand Foundation Establishment cultivators, and as for Qi Refining cultivators, countless beyond statistics, the Lu Family’s future is unprecedentedly prosperous.
With the Lu Family’s prosperity, resources increased, creating breakthroughs in cultivation became easier.
Relying on the big tree for shade, with the Lu Family as that tree, many cultivators gained protection, a vast path, and a bright future.
"Hello everyone!"
Lu Xuanji also stopped, greeting.
Many cultivators approached for greetings, some younger directly knelt, calling him Ancestor.
After several bows, these juniors finally stood up.
Lu Xuanji wanted to get closer, only to find many unfamiliar faces, most cultivators he didn’t recognize.
Time urges people to age, under its baptism, many familiar faces decayed, or perished in tribulations, making familiar people fewer.
On the path of cultivating immortality, few achieve longevity.
After greeting, exchanging unfulfilling pleasantries, after a long time, Lu Xuanji finally bade farewell to everyone.
In the main hall, he saw the Grand Elder.
"How have things been lately?"
The Grand Elder asked.
"Not bad!" Lu Xuanji said: "Only one step away from Nascent Soul! Grand Elder, you need to work hard!"
"I will work hard!" The Grand Elder said: "I have two thousand years of life. If I can’t become a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator, wouldn’t that be a waste."
