Establish A Long-Lived Family From The Son-In-Law

Chapter 85: The Dao Shouldn't Be So Small, and Companions Shouldn't Be So Few!

"Hmm, thirty offspring!?"

"Jiu'er and Shui'er have given birth to their children?"

Upon hearing this sudden system notification, Lu Changsheng couldn't help but feel excited, his face showing a happy expression.

He immediately knew that Jiu'er and Shui'er, the two women on Qingzhu Mountain, had given birth to their children.

The lack of any movement during this period indicated that neither of their children possessed spiritual roots.

"I wonder what hair and eye color the children will have when they are born."

Lu Changsheng wondered.

He had always been curious about this matter.

He had previously looked up information on this topic.

But the books did not provide a clear answer, only stating that it was mostly determined by the bloodline of both parents.

Without thinking too much about it, Lu Changsheng took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and silently said, "System, I want to draw a lottery!"

Immediately, a pale red virtual lottery wheel appeared.

"I wonder what I will draw this time."

Lu Changsheng murmured as he looked at the lottery wheel, then directly said, "Start the lottery!"

With a thought, the pale red wheel suddenly emitted a golden light and began to spin.

After five seconds, the golden light gradually slowed down, step by step, until it finally stopped at the treasure prize.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the treasure: Black Dragon Law Bead!]

[The reward has been sent to the system space and can be viewed by the host at any time.]

A black light circulated, and a pattern of a hidden dragon appeared on the bead, accompanied by a system notification sound.

"A treasure!?"

"Wow, I finally got something I wanted!"

Lu Changsheng's eyes lit up when he saw the reward he had drawn, and he showed excitement and joy on his face.

The cultivation tools used by cultivators are divided into: artifacts, spiritual artifacts, treasures, spiritual treasures, and heaven-reaching spiritual treasures, corresponding to the Qi Refining stage, Foundation Building stage, Golden Core stage, Nascent Soul stage, and Soul Formation stage, respectively. Different stages use different cultivation tools.

Only a Golden Core cultivator can control and use treasures.

Naturally, Lu Changsheng couldn't control and use treasures.

But his Hundred Refining Body Technique could refine the treasure into his body to accelerate his cultivation.

Previously, even a severely damaged treasure fragment had greatly improved his progress in the Hundred Refining Body Technique.

Now that he had a complete treasure, wouldn't it be even more amazing?

Lu Changsheng immediately looked at the system space.

He wanted to see the grade and effects of the treasure he had drawn.

[Treasure: Black Dragon Law Bead]

[Grade: Mid-grade treasure]

[Description: Made by refining a third-level evil dragon soul into a Xuan Yin Pearl. When activated, it emits black light, which can suppress the physical body and corrupt the divine soul of others. The longer it is activated, the more powerful the evil dragon's aura becomes, but the harder it is to control.]

"Black Dragon Law Bead, a mid-grade treasure!"

"It can emit black light, suppress the physical body, corrupt the divine soul, and control the evil dragon's soul to attack."

Lu Changsheng was very satisfied after seeing the grade description of this treasure.

He felt that a mid-grade treasure was already quite good.

Seeing the description of the treasure's effects, he also knew that it was more inclined towards attack.

Actually, Lu Changsheng wasn't too concerned about the effects of the treasure.

He had always hoped to draw a treasure just for the sake of cultivating the Hundred Refining Body Technique.

As for its specific functions and effects, he didn't really care. As long as it was close enough, it would do.

"But having an attack method is also a good thing for this treasure."

"After all, the Bone Technique in the Hundred Refining Body Technique can nourish the bones with the treasure, allowing the bones to exert some of the power of the treasure."

"When my bones are fully nourished, I might even be able to directly control the soul of the dragon and kill enemies!"

Lu Changsheng licked his lips, looking forward to the effect of nourishing his bones with this treasure.

He imagined that when his bones were fully nourished, he could activate the Black Dragon Law Bead when facing danger, control the soul of a dragon, and attack the enemy.

Anyone who saw a Qi Refining or Foundation Building cultivator displaying such a technique would be caught off guard and utterly confused.

Immediately,

Lu Changsheng had a thought and extracted the Black Dragon Law Bead from the system space.

A bead the size of an adult's fist fell into Lu Changsheng's hand.

The bead was quite heavy, estimated to weigh several hundred catties.

It felt slightly cool in his hand, but not cold.

The surface of the bead was very pure, without any impurities, only a faint black light flowing.

Inside the bead, a miniature ink-colored dragon could be clearly seen coiling.

"So this is a treasure."

Lu Changsheng curiously examined the Black Dragon Law Bead in his hand.

This was his first time seeing a magic treasure.

However, after taking a few glances, he didn't see anything special and felt that it was just like that.

Lu Changsheng came to the lounge on the third floor, ready to start refining this Black Dragon Magic Pearl.

He couldn't wait to condense it into his body and use it to cultivate the Hundred Refinements Body Technique and nourish his bones.

After all, not long ago, he successfully entered the introductory stage of the Hundred Refinements Body Technique, allowing Lu Changsheng to clearly experience the benefits of refining his body and becoming strong.

Although his body was already in good shape and very healthy.

But the feeling of being full of strength and having the power to control ten women at night that came with this kind of body refining was completely different.

"Roar!"

Lu Changsheng activated the Hundred Refinements Body Technique, and the spiritual energy in his body turned into a flame, starting to refine the Black Dragon Magic Pearl in front of him.

Under the refining of the spiritual flame, a trace of black aura emerged from the Black Dragon Magic Pearl in front of him, swirling and rising.

The soul of the evil dragon lurking inside also moved at this moment, vivid and lifelike, as if it wanted to break free from the pearl.

Lu Changsheng remained calm, knowing that this was the state of the magic treasure being activated, and continued to refine it with the flame of spiritual energy.

In this way, time passed bit by bit.

After a long time, Lu Changsheng opened his eyes and smiled bitterly, saying, "It's not easy to refine and condense this Black Dragon Magic Pearl into my body."

"With my current cultivation at the peak of the sixth layer of Qi Refinement, it may take two or three months to completely refine the pearl."

Under the refining just now, his spiritual energy was exhausted, but he still couldn't refine even one percent of this magic pearl.

Based on his previous experience of refining the black iron block, he knew that it wasn't easy to refine a magic treasure after obtaining it.

But he didn't expect it to be this difficult.

"Two or three months is two or three months, after all, it's a magic treasure, so it's normal to take some time."

Lu Changsheng let out a sigh of relief and put away the Black Dragon Magic Pearl.

He took out a spiritual stone, sat down to cultivate, and restored his spiritual energy.

He hadn't drawn any talismans today.

After his spiritual energy was almost restored, Lu Changsheng took out the talisman-making tools and drew two high-grade talismans and two top-grade talismans in the talisman room.

Now that his cultivation was sufficient, there was no need to use top-grade talisman paper and top-grade spiritual ink to draw top-grade talismans.

Ordinary top-grade talismans could be drawn with advanced talisman paper and spiritual ink, which could also save a lot of costs.

After all, if he always used top-grade talisman paper and spiritual ink to draw talismans, but couldn't immediately exchange the talismans for spiritual stones, the cost would still be considerable.

After finishing the talismans, it was almost dark outside, and Lu Changsheng thought it would be better to go to the Baiyu Tower early instead of waiting for another day.

Now he had more than three hundred spiritual stones on him, which was enough to take in a few more unfortunate women.

By the way, he wanted to see if there were any unfortunate people with spiritual roots.

After all, if one wants to have children with spiritual roots, one must rely on women who possess spiritual roots.

He currently has thirty children, but only four of them have spiritual roots.

Among the four, Qu Zhenzhen and Lu Miaoyun each have one.

Among the other wives and concubines, only two children have spiritual roots.

This also inevitably makes Lu Changsheng have some expectations for the children in the bellies of Shao Yuyao, Xiao Qing, and Guan Xin.

After informing the shopkeeper Zhang Shan, Lu Changsheng walked out of the door towards Baiyu Tower.

"Brother Lu, where are you going?"

Passing by Yushan Pavilion, the owner Yu Maocheng saw Lu Changsheng and greeted him.

Since the two lived opposite each other and their shops were next to each other, they would usually greet each other and chat for a while when they met.

Especially during their previous conversations, Yu Maocheng learned that Lu Changsheng was not a member of the Lu family, but rather a son-in-law of the Lu family. It was like finding a kindred spirit.

He complained to Lu Changsheng about his marriage, expressing some regret for marrying a woman from a cultivation family.

Although it was good to have a powerful backing, it was also easy to be controlled by his wife after marriage.

As a spiritual chef, he was busy every day and only had ten spirit stones as pocket money for a month.

Lu Changsheng naturally did not resonate with such words.

But he didn't say much, just responded with a few words, feeling that it wasn't easy, and indicating that his wife was still good in this aspect.

At that time, Yu Maocheng did not notice Lu Changsheng's tone and would come to drink and chat with Lu Changsheng when he had nothing to do.

Until not long after, when Yu Maocheng saw the bustling scene in Lu Changsheng's courtyard, he was stunned and fell silent.

At that moment, the way Yu Maocheng looked at Lu Changsheng changed.

Of course, afterwards, they didn't become distant because of this incident.

They still greeted each other as usual, asked about each other's well-being, and invited each other to have a meal at Yushan Pavilion.

But Yu Maocheng no longer came to drink with Lu Changsheng and complain about his married life.

He knew that complaining to someone like Lu Changsheng was like playing the lute to a cow.

The latter simply couldn't understand his pain and had no resonance.

"I feel like there are too few maids in the house, so I'm planning to go to Baiyu Tower and take a look."

Lu Changsheng replied with a smile.

Then he warmly invited, "Brother Yu, would you like to come along? Let me tell you, this Baiyu Tower..."

"Get lost!"

As soon as Yu Maocheng heard this, his face turned black and he quickly waved his hand.

"Brother Yu, as the saying goes, the great Dao should not be so small, and fellow cultivators should not be so few. Therefore, the more fellow cultivators there are, the stronger the great Dao in our hearts!"

Lu Changsheng joked and walked towards the Baiyu Tower with the steps of seeking the great path.

Yu Maocheng watched Lu Changsheng's figure and sighed slightly, his eyes involuntarily showing a hint of envy.

He knew that Lu Changsheng had more than ten maids in his family, and now he was going to visit the Baiyu Tower.

Thinking of himself, he sighed softly.

At this moment, a woman in her thirties with a beautiful face came to Yu Maocheng's side and said, "Husband, are you envious of Lu Changsheng? Do you also want to take in a few concubines?"

Hearing this, Yu Maocheng was startled. He didn't expect his wife to be right beside him.

Immediately, he said with a serious face, "No, absolutely not!"

Although he had such thoughts, this was something he absolutely couldn't admit.

However, before he could explain, the woman sighed and said softly, "Husband, it has been twenty years since I married you."

"In these twenty years, I have only given birth to Feng, Yun, Yu, and Xue. Only Xue has spiritual roots and can cultivate immortality. If you want, you can take in a few concubines."

"Isn't that inappropriate?"

Yu Maocheng said awkwardly.

"It's okay, husband. Whatever you like, I'll help you choose."

The woman smiled gently and said, "How many do you want? Three, five, or ten?"

"No need, one is enough, one is sufficient."

Yu Maocheng smiled and said.

"Alright, Yu Maocheng. I, a young girl, married you back then. Not only did I help you acquire this restaurant, but I also gave birth to four children for you. Now you think I'm old and want to take in concubines, right?"

The woman's face, which was full of smiles a moment ago, suddenly turned cold. She snorted and walked away.

Seeing this, Yu Maocheng sighed deeply, knowing that he had made a mistake again.

Immediately, he chased after her and coaxed, "Madam, madam, listen to my explanation. My feelings for you are as clear as the sun and moon. How could I have such thoughts? It was just a joke."

When Lu Changsheng arrived at the Baiyu Tower, the woman in the red dress who greeted him already remembered him.

She immediately approached with a smile and led him to a room on the second floor.

"Master Lu, it's been a long time. Jiu Niang has missed you so much~"

In the room, Feng Jiuniang, wearing a black phoenix bird mist veil long dress, charming and seductive, smiled when she saw Lu Changsheng.

"Hehe, Manager Feng, I came here this time to buy a few more maids."

"I wonder if the Baiyu Tower has any maids with spiritual roots now. The price should be within three hundred spiritual stones."

Lu Changsheng's gaze instinctively swept over the plumpness of the neckline and the thighs hidden under the skirt, and then he spoke.

Every time he came to the Baiyu Tower and saw Feng Jiuniang, he couldn't help but sigh. This woman was truly captivating to the core.

This made him think that Feng Jiuniang was just a manager in the Baiyu Tower of Jiulongfang Market.

If it's a fairy city, or the management of the headquarters, or the higher-ups, it must be very tempting.

"Master Lu, please have some tea. I will go and see if there are suitable candidates for you."

Feng Jiuniang didn't pay attention to Lu Changsheng's gaze and smiled softly.

After bending down to pour tea for Lu Changsheng, she walked out of the room with a swaying waist.

After a while, Feng Jiuniang came back and placed two jade slips on the table, saying, "I just checked, and currently there are only two people who meet Master Lu's requirements. Master Lu can take a look and see if you're interested."

"Okay."

Lu Changsheng nodded and picked up one of the jade slips and placed it on his forehead, using his spiritual sense to connect.

Immediately, he saw a girl who was fifteen or sixteen years old, with a beautiful face and a petite and cute figure.

On her cute face, there was a hint of resentment and unwillingness.

Without thinking, he knew that she must have ended up in the Baiyu Tower for various reasons, just like Shaoyu Yao.

That's why he wanted to rescue them.

Lu Changsheng picked up the second jade slip.

Inside was a mature woman in her late twenties or early thirties, with a beautiful face and a plump figure, but she seemed a bit fragile, with a hint of numbness in her eyes.

"What's the situation with these two maids, and what are their prices?"

With the experience from the previous two times, Lu Changsheng was quite experienced and asked directly.

"This woman has a cultivation level of the second level of Qi Refining and possesses a ninth-grade spiritual root. The price is 211 spirit stones."

"This woman has a seventh-grade spiritual root but no cultivation level. The price is 300 spirit stones."

Feng Jiuniang pointed to the two jade slips and introduced.

"Why does the woman with the seventh-grade spiritual root have no cultivation level? And the price for a seventh-grade spiritual root shouldn't be this low, right?"

Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow and asked.

He also had a rough idea of the pricing for maids in the Baiyu Tower.

A maid with a seventh-grade spiritual root would cost at least five to six hundred spirit stones.

"This woman originally had a cultivation level of the fifth level of Qi Refining, but her Qi Sea Dantian was damaged, causing her cultivation level to be completely destroyed."

"That's why she has a seventh-grade spiritual root but only costs 300 spirit stones."

Feng Jiuniang explained.

"I see."

Lu Changsheng nodded slightly.

No wonder when he saw her appearance in the jade slip just now, she seemed a bit fragile.

It seemed that her body had just recovered and she was still weak.

It seems that this young woman must be much more miserable than a young girl.

In that case, I will choose to save this young woman.

Immediately, Lu Changsheng said, "Trouble the Wind Manager to show me her detailed information."

Feng Jiuniang took out the information of this maid.

Lu Changsheng carefully examined it.

The woman's name is Xiao Yueru, thirty years old. Like Shao Yuyao, she is a woman from a small cultivation family.

Because her family was destroyed, she ended up in Baiyu Tower.

Due to injuries to her Qi Hai Dantian during battle, her cultivation was completely scattered and she could no longer practice.

There were no other lingering effects, and she was able to bear children.

However, she was not a virgin and had given birth to a child before.

This is also a factor in determining the price at Baiyu Tower.

"Alright, she will do."

After Lu Changsheng finished reading, he said directly.

Since he came to buy a maid with a purpose, he didn't have too many psychological taboos.

Moreover, she is considered a virtuous woman.

She is not like the immortal beauties of Zui Xian Tower and Chun Man Tower, whose lips are tasted by thousands.

As for her cultivation level, Lu Changsheng doesn't care at all.

What he values is the seventh-grade spiritual root of this young woman.

If it weren't for the fact that this young woman's Qi Hai Dantian was damaged, according to the previous prices at Baiyu Tower, a woman with a seventh-grade spiritual root would cost at least five to six hundred spiritual stones.

In Lu Changsheng's opinion, this time he also made a small profit for himself.

Immediately, Lu Changsheng paid a deposit of sixty spiritual stones and waited for the person to be delivered.

He also spent fifty spiritual stones to buy four ordinary maids without spiritual roots.

Lu Changsheng asked Baiyu Tower to send these four maids to his residence later, as he didn't want to bring them back himself.

Otherwise, it would easily attract attention on the street.

For this kind of small request, Feng Jiuniang naturally agreed directly, saying that there was no problem.

Just as Lu Changsheng was preparing to leave Baiyu Tower, he thought of something.

He asked Feng Jiuniang, "Wind Manager, do you have any women in Baiyu Tower who possess a spiritual body?"

He had only read fragments about spiritual bodies in books before.

It was because of the incident with the woman in the colored skirt that he thought of this.

Thinking that Baiyu Tower had such a wide network, would there be women with spiritual bodies?

When Feng Jiuniang heard this, she also looked slightly surprised.

Then she smiled softly and said, "Of course we do."

"Huh!?"

Lu Changsheng was somewhat surprised to hear this.

He didn't expect that there were actually women with spiritual bodies in Baiyu Tower.

It seems that Baiyu Tower is much more powerful than he imagined.

Seeing Lu Changsheng's surprised expression, Feng Jiuniang smiled lightly and continued, "However, people with spiritual bodies are extremely rare, one in ten thousand. Even in our Baiyu Tower, they are not common."

"Moreover, most of them come to our Baiyu Tower hoping to find a Dao companion and marry a suitable husband."

"If Young Master Lu wants to purchase a maid with a spiritual body, I'm afraid you will be disappointed."

"Even for our Baiyu Tower, there are not many maids with spiritual bodies, and many people have made reservations with us."

"If Young Master Lu has such an intention, you can pay a deposit first, and when we find someone with a spiritual body, we will notify you."

Feng Jiuniang's face carried a charming smile as she spoke unhurriedly.

"I was just asking casually."

Lu Changsheng didn't feel disappointed when he heard this. He thought it was normal.

Otherwise, if Baiyu Tower casually sold women with spiritual bodies, their power would be quite terrifying.

He didn't ask any further questions.

At this stage, women with spiritual bodies are still far away from him and not something he can think about.

If he encounters one, that would be great.

But to spend money to buy a maid with a spiritual body from Baiyu Tower, he would pass on that.

With that money, he might as well buy a few maids with medium-grade spiritual roots.

After all, the spiritual root grade of parents directly affects the upper limit of their children's spiritual roots.

If both parents have low-grade spiritual roots, it is difficult to give birth to a child with a medium-grade spiritual root.

If one of the parents has a medium-grade spiritual root, the probability of the child having a medium-grade spiritual root will also be relatively higher.

Immediately, with Feng Jiuniang's farewell, Lu Changsheng walked out of Baiyu Tower.

"Huh?"

Just as Lu Changsheng was walking back, he heard a commotion coming from a nearby shop. He turned his head and saw a familiar figure.
