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

Chapter 91: The Curse of the Demon Book! Seventy-nine Children!

A peaceful and leisurely life always passes by quickly.

In the blink of an eye, over a month has passed.

During this month, Yun Qianqian has seamlessly integrated into the Lu Changsheng family and successfully became pregnant.

This made Yu Maocheng and his wife couldn't help but marvel at Lu Changsheng's efficiency.

During a conversation, Yu Maocheng asked Lu Changsheng how he plans to support so many children in the future.

Although it is said that the poor raise their children according to their means, and the rich raise their children lavishly, if the children have spiritual roots, no matter how they are raised, it will be a considerable expense.

In the face of this question, Lu Changsheng calmly stated that as a talisman master, he also has some savings.

He also saves money for the future education of his children.

After all, he doesn't mind sacrificing himself a little, but he absolutely cannot let his children suffer.

Upon hearing this, Yu Maocheng immediately showed a look of disbelief, as if an elderly person on the subway was looking at their phone.

He believed that Lu Changsheng would not let the children suffer.

But no matter how he looked at it, he didn't think Lu Changsheng looked like someone who would suffer himself.

Yu Maocheng had never seen anyone like Lu Changsheng who knows how to enjoy life.

Not only does he have a bunch of wives and maidservants serving him, but even his daily consumption and shopping, which only costs him ten spiritual stones a month, makes Yu Maocheng envy him greatly.

However, Yu Maocheng wouldn't ask too much about this matter.

With the relationship between Yun Qianqian and Lu Changsheng, although the two families have more interactions, it is not the same as being in-laws.

They know that Yun Qianqian is living well in Lu Changsheng's family, and that is enough.

On this day, Lu Changsheng was drawing talismans in the spiritual symbol shop.

Suddenly, an indescribable sense of mystery surged within him.

Lu Changsheng had a feeling.

His spiritual roots have advanced!

From a rank eight spiritual root, he has advanced to a rank seven spiritual root!

"Hmm, does this mean that my child with spiritual roots has been born?"

Under this surge, Lu Changsheng was suddenly startled, his face showing a look of joy.

The talisman he was drawing failed, and green smoke rose from the talisman paper.

Lu Changsheng didn't pay much attention to it. After sensing it for a moment, he shook his head and said, "No, this is not the surge caused by the child's spiritual roots."

"It's just a natural advancement, allowing my spiritual roots to advance from rank eight to rank seven!"

"Yes, my four children's spiritual roots are still developing, so it's equivalent to my own spiritual roots growing as well."

"With the previous enhancement, my spiritual roots were already close to the peak of rank eight. Now, with continuous growth, they have naturally advanced to rank seven!"

Lu Changsheng immediately understood what was going on.

According to the timing, he did indeed have two wives in Qingzhu Mountain, and their children were born around this time.

But he could feel that he did not receive the surge caused by the enhancement of his spiritual roots.

There was only a vague feeling that his own spiritual roots had advanced.

"Rank seven spiritual root!"

"Phew, I finally advanced to a rank seven spiritual root. As long as I take one more step, I will become a middle-grade spiritual root immortal seed!"

Lu Changsheng took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and his face was filled with joy.

Spiritual roots are the foundation of a person's cultivation!

For Lu Changsheng, spiritual roots not only determine the foundation of his cultivation, but also the quality limit of his future children's spiritual roots.

After all, the quality of the parents' spiritual roots can affect the quality of their children's spiritual roots.

The better his spiritual roots, the better the spiritual roots of his future children.

Although he is working hard to improve the quality of the mothers of his children.

But as a father, how can he lag behind?

"If I continue like this, the later-born children will not only have better conditions and environments, but also higher talent limits, standing on the shoulders of their older brothers and sisters."

Lu Changsheng couldn't help but sigh.

He felt that as long as he continued to give birth and advance, he might be able to have a large family with high-grade and heaven-grade spiritual roots.

Immediately, he tried to experience the cultivation speed of his rank seven spiritual roots.

However...

Under this silent advancement of his spiritual roots, he felt that there was not much improvement or change compared to before.

"Both rank eight and rank seven spiritual roots are low-grade spiritual roots, so this advancement doesn't have any obvious changes."

"I estimate that when I advance from a low-grade spiritual root to a middle-grade spiritual root, there will be significant improvements."

"I wonder how much help my spiritual roots advancing from rank eight to rank seven will have on breaking through the bottleneck from the middle stage to the later stage of Qi Refining."

Lu Changsheng shook his head slightly and looked at his Qi Sea Dantian, where the spiritual energy was as viscous as a stream.

He meditated and cultivated for two hours every day, but his cultivation level remained stagnant.

He could only rely on a little bit of grinding and wait for an opportunity to break through.

However, Lu Changsheng did inquire about it if he really wanted to break through.

The Advanced Barrier Breaking Pill costs 1,200 spiritual stones.

It can help break through from the middle stage to the later stage of Qi Refining.

He only needs to save up for a year to be able to afford it.

But in Lu Changsheng's opinion, it is not necessary.

I don't usually go out, I don't fight with others, and I don't go on adventures or anything like that.

With so many talismans on hand, it's enough to focus on cultivation. There's no need to rush.

Just take some Huanglong Pills for auxiliary cultivation in daily life, that's enough.

Forget about these broken grade-up pills, they will affect his future Foundation Building.

"Guanyin is about to give birth, I wonder if this child has spiritual roots."

Lu Changsheng stretched his muscles and bones slightly, looking at the clear blue sky outside the window, feeling a bit of anticipation in his heart.

He has already become open-minded about having children with concubines who don't have spiritual roots.

But for concubines with spiritual roots, he hasn't become indifferent yet, and there is always a sense of anticipation in his heart.

Ten days later.

Lu Changsheng found that two of his maidservants were pregnant.

Of the four maidservants he had purchased before, only one had not become pregnant.

But Lu Changsheng didn't mind, he wasn't in a hurry to replenish.

After all, there is only one big stick.

Now that there are already so many ordinary maidservants, the next step is to save money and increase the number of high-quality maidservants.

Moreover, Lu Miaoyun is still in Jiulongfang City.

Out of respect for his wife, Lu Changsheng will still restrain himself a little.

At least wait until next month when Lu Miaoyun and Qu Zhenzhen return to Qingzhu Mountain before going to Baiyulou.

Six days later.

On this day, Lu Changsheng didn't go to the Lingfu Shop, he just sat at home.

Because Guanyin's child was about to be born.

"Wow!"

With a cry, Lu Changsheng felt a mysterious and inexplicable tremor throughout his body.

It was the tremor of spiritual roots.

The child has spiritual roots, and the tremor is the bonus on him!

At the same time, just as he was pleasantly surprised, a system prompt sounded.

[Congratulations to the host for giving birth to five children with spiritual roots, and you have one chance to draw a prize!]

This tremor and the system prompt made Lu Changsheng extremely excited and delighted.

However, as his state of mind gradually improved, he didn't show too much excitement.

There was only a faint smile on his face, appearing gentle and elegant, like a gentle breeze.

He and Lu Miaoyun walked into the room.

"Master, it's a young lady."

The midwife said with a smile.

"Good, thank you for your hard work."

Lu Changsheng directly handed over a spirit stone and said, "This is a midwife I hired from Jiulongfang Market. She has assisted in the previous two deliveries as well."

He felt that in the future, he would also need to hire a permanent midwife to stay at home.

Although his wives were nourished daily with spiritual rice and food, there would be no major issues with childbirth. However, this measure must be ensured to be foolproof.

"Thank you, Young Master Lu. Thank you, Young Master Lu," the midwife said with a smile as she accepted the spirit stone, her face beaming like a chrysanthemum.

Lu Changsheng picked up the baby. It was a very cute infant.

Knowing that the child had spiritual roots, Lu Changsheng felt a sense of joy in his heart. The more he looked at the baby, the more adorable he found it.

This scene also brought a happy smile to Guan Xin's face.

When she found out that she had given birth to a daughter, she felt a faint sense of disappointment, afraid that Lu Changsheng would show some dislike. After all, there were still many people in this world who favored sons over daughters.

Seeing Lu Changsheng's smile at this moment, she felt much relieved.

After the child was born, Lu Changsheng did not rush to leave and draw the lottery. He continued to accompany Guan Xin and his wives, talking and chatting.

It wasn't until the afternoon that he said he would go to the shop to take a look.

After arriving at the Spirit Talisman Shop, Lu Changsheng went straight to the third floor and then began the part he was most looking forward to.

"System, I want to draw the lottery!" Lu Changsheng silently said in his heart.

Immediately, a pale red lottery wheel appeared.

"I wonder what I can draw this time. If it's not a cultivation technique, another treasure would be nice too," Lu Changsheng thought as he looked at the lottery wheel, secretly anticipating.

After all, the Black Dragon Magic Pearl was of great help to him. If he could refine a treasure in each of his four limbs, his cultivation would probably soar.

Without much thought, Lu Changsheng directly said, "Start the lottery!"

Immediately, a golden light began to spin on the wheel. Under Lu Changsheng's expectant gaze, the golden light slowly stopped at the "Treasure" section of the lottery board.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a rare treasure: Demon Curse Book!]

[The reward has been sent to the system space. The host can check it at any time.]

A dark and eerie scroll with strange patterns appeared along with the system prompt sound.

"A rare treasure, Demon Curse Book?" Lu Changsheng was somewhat surprised to see the reward he drew this time, not knowing what it was.

He immediately looked towards the system space.

He wanted to see what this "Demon Curse Book" was.

【Demon Curse Book】

【Grade: Third Tier】

【Explanation: Made by refining the aura of heaven and earth by the ancient witch clan. As long as one visualizes someone while looking at the manuscript, they can curse them from a distance. After forty-nine days, the curse will entangle their flesh, blood, and soul, ultimately causing their flesh to decay and their soul to perish.】

The description of the effect of the Demon Curse Book appeared.

"So, this is a cursed treasure?"

Lu Changsheng looked at the Demon Curse Book and immediately understood what it was.

It wasn't a magic treasure.

But its effect was somewhat similar to a magic treasure, belonging to the category of rare and precious treasures.

This rare treasure seemed powerful, but Lu Changsheng knew that as a third-tier item, it could only curse cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage at most.

Moreover, treasures like this would definitely have restrictions and side effects.

He directly extracted the Demon Curse Book.

He also wanted to see the detailed introduction of this rare treasure.

Immediately, a pitch-black manuscript, thick like a book but unable to be turned, appeared in front of Lu Changsheng.

There were no words on the manuscript, only faint black lines.

These lines seemed to be filled with a sinister aura, slowly flowing, giving off a creepy feeling.

As this "Demon Curse Book" was extracted, Lu Changsheng's mind also gained some information.

Information about the detailed introduction of this rare treasure.

It was indeed as he had guessed.

This "Demon Curse Book" seemed powerful, but it was ultimately only a third-tier rare treasure with limited effects.

Firstly, this "Demon Curse Book" was a one-time use treasure.

Once used, it would be gone.

Furthermore, it could only curse and kill cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage at most.

And it had side effects.

Cursing others would also come at a cost.

It would shorten one's lifespan!

And it would cause one's vitality and blood to decline, requiring calm cultivation to recover.

Cursing Qi Refining stage cultivators would shorten their lifespan by one to three years!

Cursing Foundation Building stage cultivators would shorten their lifespan by ten to thirty years!

Cursing the Core Formation stage cultivators would shorten their lifespan by over a hundred years!

As for Nascent Soul stage cultivators, although they couldn't be cursed to death, if desired, they could still make the other party feel nauseous, causing them to be entangled by the demon curse, their flesh decaying and their soul withering.

As for the cost, it depends on one's cultivation, strength, and lifespan.

If one does this without the strength of the Nascent Soul stage, it would basically result in physical decay and the extinction of the divine soul, leading to death.

"The Curse of Demonic Annihilation Book, how should I describe it?" Lu Changsheng looked at the Curse of Demonic Annihilation Book in front of him, which looked a bit like a memorial frame, and licked his lips. For a while, he didn't know how to describe it.

Its power is unquestionable.

As long as one silently visualizes another person, they can cast spells and kill from a distance, ignoring the distance.

Unlike some spells he had read about in books or heard of, which required collecting the target's hair, blood, or used items.

In other words, as a Qi Refining stage cultivator, if he encounters a Foundation Building stage cultivator and silently visualizes the Curse of Demonic Annihilation Book, sacrificing his lifespan, he can kill them with a curse.

If he risks his life, he may not be able to kill a Core Formation cultivator, but he can still afflict them with the Curse of Demonic Annihilation, causing their flesh and soul to decay, greatly weakening their strength and hindering their cultivation progress.

Such behavior is astonishing no matter where it is placed.

But in Lu Changsheng's opinion, the cost is a bit too high and not worth it.

After all, as a Qi Refining stage cultivator, his lifespan is only a little over a hundred years.

If he were to kill a Foundation Building stage cultivator, he would have to sacrifice twenty or thirty years of his lifespan.

Not only would his lifespan be reduced, but his Qi and blood would also decline, affecting his strength. It might even affect his ability to have children.

"However, this treasure does not require a master and can be used by anyone."

"If I want to, I can give it to someone else and let them sacrifice their lifespan to help me kill people."

"But how many people would be willing to do such a thing and trust me? The risk is too great."

"So, I'll keep this treasure as my last resort and not use it unless absolutely necessary."

Lu Changsheng looked at the Curse of Demonic Annihilation Book in his hand, shook his head slightly, and put it away in his storage bag.

He decided that if any foolish Foundation Building cultivator provoked him in the future and pushed him to his limit, he would engrave their portrait on this Curse of Demonic Annihilation Book.

As for Core Formation cultivators, he would let it go. It would be a mutual destruction and not worth it.

After completing the lottery, Lu Changsheng suddenly felt a sense of emptiness.

He then sat down and began to meditate, wanting to see how much his daughter's spiritual root, which was of what grade, would enhance his cultivation.

After a while, through his experience, Lu Changsheng felt that this enhancement was less than ten percent.

He estimated that his daughter's spiritual root was at most an eighth-grade spiritual root.

But Lu Changsheng was also very satisfied with this.

At this stage, having a spiritual root is enough. What else does he need?

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

Lu Changsheng believed that as long as he worked hard, his talent would eventually surpass all predecessors and have no equals.

In the blink of an eye, another ten days passed.

On this day, the second elder came to Lu Changsheng's house as a guest.

After casually strolling around, he mentioned that he would return to Qingzhu Mountain in half a month.

Inquire with Lu Changsheng, Lu Miaoyun, and others if they want to return together.

In response, Lu Changsheng naturally expressed his desire to return.

Both Lu Miaoyun and Qu Zhenzhen also expressed their intention to stay at Qingzhu Mountain to rest and let the other sisters come over.

Originally, Lu Changsheng planned to send Guan Xin to Qingzhu Mountain for recuperation and take care of the child.

But due to limited seats on the flying boat, there are only three spots, so they had to give up.

Lu Changsheng also asked the second elder about whether it's okay for infants to ride on the flying boat.

He was planning to send these three children back to Qingzhu Mountain for nurturing.

The second elder said there shouldn't be any major issues, but it would be best for Lu Changsheng to buy a few pieces of Warm Sun Jade.

This Warm Sun Jade is a kind of spiritual jade that can ward off cold and nourish the body.

This way, the infants won't catch a cold on the flying boat and can sleep more soundly.

After the second elder finished speaking, they chatted for a while and then happily left.

His visit this time was naturally not just about informing Lu Changsheng to return to Qingzhu Mountain.

Did this matter require the presence of the esteemed second elder of the Lu family?

His main purpose for this visit was to see if, after being advised by the fourth elder, Lu Changsheng had stopped his crazy behavior of taking concubines and buying maidservants, and if he was still obsessed with women.

Based on his observations during this visit, he was quite satisfied with Lu Changsheng's performance.

Although children were still being born, it was clearly much better than before.

And Lu Miaoyun also told him that in the past six months, Lu Changsheng had only taken one concubine and one maidservant, which made him very pleased.

He felt that the effect of the fourth elder's advice was quite good.

After preparing to return in half a month, the next day, Lu Changsheng took Lu Miaoyun, Qu Zhenzhen, and other women to go shopping.

They were preparing to buy some things and gifts to bring back.

During the process, Lu Changsheng found that the Warm Sun Jade mentioned by the second elder was quite cheap.

It only cost two spirit stones per piece.

He directly purchased thirty-five pieces.

After all, as a father, how could he treat them unequally?

Even if he might have a relatively stronger affection for certain children.

But in such small matters, he would try to treat everyone equally.

So now that there were thirty-five children, he directly bought thirty-five pieces, one for each person.

After that, Lu Changsheng also strolled around the market and inquired about the price of the Rejuvenation Pills.

His wives and concubines had accompanied him for so many years and given birth to so many children for him, so naturally, he had to give them some valuable gifts.

Among them, the best one was naturally the Rejuvenation Pill.

It had the effect of eternal youth.

But the Rejuvenation Pill was a second-grade pill and was very expensive.

For first-grade pills related to rejuvenation, there were the Stabilizing Youth Pill and the Nourishing Youth Pill.

The Stabilizing Youth Pill could stabilize one's appearance, but after about ten years, it would gradually change.

It cost one hundred spirit stones.

The Nourishing Youth Pill had the effect of nourishing and preserving one's appearance.

It was good to take one every three years or so, and it could also have the effect of the Rejuvenation Pill.

It cost twenty spirit stones per pill.

Lu Changsheng thought for a moment and directly purchased sixteen Nourishing Youth Pills.

He gave one to each of his current wives and concubines.

In total, it cost three hundred and twenty spirit stones, and the shopkeeper gave him a discount of twenty spirit stones, so he ended up spending three hundred spirit stones.

Only at this moment did Lu Changsheng feel that it was not easy to support so many wives and children.

Ten days later.

Lu Changsheng, Lu Miaoyun, and Qu Zhenzhen each held a baby and went to live in the Eastern District Courtyard, preparing to go back to Qingzhu Mountain with the second elder.

These three accompanying members of the Lu family were all cousins of Lu Miaoyun.

Two of them had also come on the previous trip.

When they saw Lu Miaoyun and Qu Zhenzhen before they came, they were still fine.

But this time, not only were their bellies slightly bulging, but they were also each holding a baby with Lu Changsheng.

They couldn't help but feel confused and stunned.

Then, they asked Lu Changsheng what was going on and where the children came from.

Faced with such questions, Lu Changsheng did not hide anything.

He directly said that he had taken several concubines here and bought some maidservants.

These three children had just been born and he planned to take them back to Qingzhu Mountain to raise them.

Upon hearing this, the three of them looked at each other in astonishment.

As members of the Lu family, they naturally knew about Lu Changsheng's reputation at Qingzhu Mountain.

Being a good woman and giving birth to good children.

They knew that, but they didn't expect Lu Changsheng to be so unrestrained, giving birth wherever he went.

Especially one of Lu Miaoyun's cousins, she asked Lu Changsheng how many children he had now.

Lu Changsheng said that there were thirty-five born and fourteen currently pregnant, which not only left the three of them dumbfounded but also shocked the flying boat's second elder, who was piloting the boat.

Back then, the Lu family sought a son-in-law.

They demanded fifty children in twenty years.

As a result, in just over six years, Lu Changsheng already had forty-nine children.
