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

Chapter 98: Giving Birth and Lottery! (Reset)

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, over two months had passed.

Due to the daily tasks of drawing second-order talismans and crafting puppets, Lu Changsheng became busier every day.

However, amidst the busyness, he never forgot about his main task.

During these two months, both Jiang Louyue and Yu Yao successfully became pregnant.

Lu Changsheng still paid special attention to these maidservants with spiritual roots.

At the same time, Xiao Qing and the maid Cang Lan, under his favor, also became pregnant with their second child.

On this day, on the third floor of the Spirit Talisman Shop.

After completing the daily drawing of talismans, Lu Changsheng went to the storage room to polish the puppet parts with spiritual power.

In the corner, there were also various puppet parts and components.

Although the materials for the second-order puppets were not complete, it didn't stop Lu Changsheng from making some parts in advance.

After all, this thing couldn't be completed in just one or two months.

It was a long-term project.

Just then, something sudden happened.

Lu Changsheng felt a mysterious palpitation throughout his body.

"Hmm? It's the palpitation of spiritual roots!?"

"The child in Yue's womb is born."

"This child has spiritual roots!"

"And it's a seventh-grade spiritual root!"

Sensing this palpitation, Lu Changsheng was first stunned, then immediately showed a look of surprise.

Having experienced so many palpitations from the addition of spiritual roots, Lu Changsheng could roughly judge the quality of the child's spiritual roots based on his feelings.

At this moment, feeling this palpitation.

Combined with his memory of the timing of his wives and maidservants' pregnancies.

He immediately knew that it was the child in Xiao Yueru's womb that had been born.

And it had a seventh-grade spiritual root.

This made Lu Changsheng extremely excited and delighted.

However, even though he was excited and delighted, Lu Changsheng didn't rush home to see the child directly.

After all, he couldn't just wait at home or rush back every time a child with spiritual roots was born.

Once or twice was fine, but if it happened too often, it would easily arouse suspicion.

Lu Changsheng took a deep breath and calmed his inner joy a little.

Putting down the parts in his hand, he began to sit and cultivate.

Half an hour later.

Lu Changsheng opened his eyes and could feel that his cultivation speed had significantly improved compared to before.

It had increased by about ten percent.

"I feel that as long as I have two or three more seventh-grade spiritual roots, my own spiritual roots will be able to advance to the sixth grade!"

Lu Changsheng's eyes sparkled with anticipation.

He felt that as long as he continued to live peacefully like this, the middle-grade spiritual roots were not far away.

After that, Lu Changsheng continued to tighten the screws in his hand.

But he couldn't focus on it because he was thinking about the child at home.

When he saw that the sky outside was getting dark, Lu Changsheng got up and went straight home to see the child.

Just after returning home, one of his wives in the courtyard told Lu Changsheng that Xiao Yueru had given birth.

It was a daughter.

Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng went to the backyard to visit.

As he looked at his daughter with a seventh-grade spiritual root, Lu Changsheng became more and more delighted.

This scene also filled Xiao Yueru's face with a smile of happiness.

It made the other women envy.

She thought to herself that her husband truly loved children.

She would definitely give birth to more children for her husband.

At the same time.

In a certain cave dwelling.

A slender young man held a black jar, his face full of joy.

Inside the jar was a blood-red creature, barely alive and on the verge of death.

"This is the Love-Locking Gu!"

"Once bitten by the Love-Locking Gu, a person will develop feelings of love for its host!"

"Before my grandmother passed away, she said that the Patriarch was originally a destitute cultivator, but it was through a fortuitous encounter that he obtained this Love-Locking Gu, causing countless fairies to fall in love with him, and step by step, he became a Foundation Establishment cultivator!"

The young man said with joy on his face.

Then, he carefully placed the jar down and pinched a spiritual seal with his fingers, causing a drop of blood to drip from his fingertip onto the blood-colored creature.

When I saw blood appearing, the blood-colored gu worm, which had just looked half-dead, suddenly came to life and licked the blood.

Causing the whole body's blood color to become more crystal clear and beautiful, like a blood jade agate.

"Come on, little guy."

The skinny young man saw the blood-colored gu worm lick his blood clean, took out a dagger, and made a cut in his palm.

Then the blood-colored gu worm directly burrowed into the young man's flesh and blood in his palm.

"The love-locking gu can lock up to three people, and their cultivation level cannot be much higher than their own."

"The ancestor was too greedy, causing the love-locking gu to fail, and his wives killed him in anger, ultimately leading to his death."

"So I must be careful and find a suitable target."

The skinny young man looked at the love-locking gu in his palm and muttered to himself.

In his mind, the image of a handsome and upright young man appeared.

In the blink of an eye, more than two months had passed.

During these days, Lu Changsheng's life remained unchanged.

Thinking that the two concubines who came with him from Qingzhu Mountain would soon be returning.

It had been more than half a year since they became pregnant, and Lu Changsheng had taken good care of them, allowing both women to successfully conceive.

And under his favor, Shao Yuyao became pregnant with her second child.

This brought the total number of his children to fifty-eight!

Third floor of the Spirit Talisman Shop.

Lu Changsheng was installing a humanoid puppet.

This puppet was about two meters tall.

It was completely black, shimmering with a metallic luster.

One hand held a knife, the other held a shield, and it carried five black spears on its back.

"If there are more magical tools in the future, they can also be directly installed on this puppet."

"Although it can't fully exert the effects of the magical tools, the effect won't be bad either."

Lu Changsheng looked at the puppet he had installed and evaluated.

Puppets were not as rigidly fixed as talisman making.

After understanding the principles, some small parts could be flexibly modified according to the situation.

Then, Lu Changsheng removed the golden heart-shaped mirror from the puppet's chest.

Inside was hollow, it was the puppet's core control center.

If the core was damaged, the puppet would be useless and needed major repairs.

Lu Changsheng took out a spirit rune carving knife and infused spiritual power, slowly sketching on the puppet's chest where the core was located.

To activate all the runes and formations on the puppet's body and connect them together.

This was the final and most crucial step.

If it failed, he would have to recheck the other parts of the rune formations, re-engrave and assemble them.

During this process, Lu Changsheng was extremely focused.

Every stroke of the carving knife was precise and meticulous.

Time passed bit by bit.

Finally, Lu Changsheng completed the last stroke.

Then he poured a jar of well-prepared viscous spirit fluid into it and embedded ten spirit stones.

In that instant, the entire puppet's body emitted a spiritual light.

Lines appeared, faintly revealing an ancient and mysterious pattern, exuding a faint spiritual pressure.

"Phew, it's finally done!"

Lu Changsheng looked at the metal puppet in front of him, a tired smile on his face.

To create this second-grade puppet, it took him more than four months in total.

Now that it was completed, he felt a sense of accomplishment.

Immediately, Lu Changsheng used puppet control techniques to control the puppet in front of him.

Suddenly, the surface of the puppet's body emitted a faint ink-jade-like luster, and a buzzing sound came from inside.

It was like a war machine coming back to life, emitting a terrifying spiritual pressure.

His mind moved slightly.

"Swish!"

The puppet swung its black-gold long knife forward, and the knife seemed to tear the air like thunder and lightning.

"It looks good, but this place is too small, I can't fully display its power. I can't even test the true strength of this second-grade puppet!"

"If I use too much force, I might even demolish the house."

Lu Changsheng licked his lips and shook his head.

This puppet in front of him was the second-grade inferior humanoid combat puppet he wanted to create.

It was a melee-oriented puppet with both offensive and defensive capabilities.

Although it leaned towards melee combat, it didn't mean it had no long-range attacks.

The five black spears on its back could be thrown at long distances.

Each strike is comparable to the initial strike of the Foundation Building stage.

For cultivators at the Qi Refining stage, if they encounter this puppet and run too slowly, it's basically a dead end.

As for facing a Foundation Building cultivator...

It can only be said that unless they are old and weak, have just experienced a battle, and have exhausted their means, a Foundation Building cultivator cannot rely on a puppet to defeat another Foundation Building cultivator. It is undoubtedly a pipe dream.

After all, those who can become Foundation Building cultivators are not simple individuals. Each one possesses astonishing means.

"But if I want this puppet to unleash its full power and continue fighting, I'll need to embed middle-grade spirit stones, or even high-grade spirit stones."

"Ten low-grade spirit stones won't be able to sustain its continuous eruption."

Lu Changsheng assessed the puppet in front of him, rubbing his chin.

Although this puppet has a Spirit Gathering Array that can store spiritual energy, the stored spiritual energy is limited and cannot sustain prolonged battles.

To operate and fight for a long time, it must rely on spirit stones for maintenance.

"For now, let's leave it like this. When I have spirit stones, I'll exchange them for ten middle-grade spirit stones."

Lu Changsheng thought to himself, not feeling too distressed.

After all, he couldn't just stop at creating a second-tier puppet and save these ten middle-grade spirit stones.

Although embedding ten middle-grade spirit stones is indeed a bit excessive, if they were exchanged for low-grade spirit stones, it would amount to a thousand.

But he wouldn't usually use this second-tier puppet, so it wouldn't consume spirit stones.

If he really needed to operate and fight for a long time, it would be a crisis situation where he needed to save his life, so he couldn't skimp on this money.

Nine days later...

The second elder is about to return to the Lu family and sends someone to inform Lu Changsheng.

Upon learning that the flying boat can accommodate three people, Lu Changsheng decides to bring his two wives and Jiang Louyue back with him.

He wants Jiang Louyue to go back and teach the children martial arts.

The second elder sees that Lu Changsheng has gained another wife, and they are all pregnant, so he can't help but shake his head and sigh.

He wants to say a few words of advice, but for a while, he doesn't know what to say.

He just tells Lu Changsheng to take it easy and take care of his health.

In his heart, he plans to let the fourth elder talk to Lu Changsheng about this matter.

Otherwise, if Lu Changsheng continues like this, he is truly worried that he will ruin himself.

A day and a half later, the flying boat safely returns to Qingzhu Mountain.

Lu Changsheng returns home and informs his wives about Jiang Louyue teaching the children martial arts.

His wives understand this.

They know that the children have no spiritual roots and will eventually go to the secular world, so learning martial arts is a good thing.

Apart from anything else, practicing martial arts can at least strengthen their bodies.

But seeing that Jiang Louyue is also pregnant, his wives can't help but secretly think that their husband is really something, not even sparing the teacher for their children.

They stay in Qingzhu Mountain for three days.

During this time, under the guidance of the fourth elder, Lu Changsheng also demonstrates his progress in talisman making.

He begins to learn high-grade talismans.

This progress is similar to his previous plan.

When he returns next time, he will be able to naturally demonstrate his status as a high-grade talisman master.

At the same time, he also pays a visit to Li Feiyu.

He chats with Li Feiyu and asks him to teach his children martial arts.

According to his plan, the first batch of children will be sent to the secular world in another two or three years.

Now, by having Li Feiyu teach them martial arts, he can also impart some knowledge and experience of the martial world, which will be beneficial for the children.

Facing Lu Changsheng's request, Li Feiyu naturally agrees readily.

But as Lu Changsheng guessed, Li Feiyu had already agreed to teach martial arts a long time ago.

Moreover, he can't accept payment for teaching his own nephews and nieces.

In the end, after Lu Changsheng insists, Li Feiyu reluctantly accepts five spirit stones per month as payment.

Soon, three days pass.

Lu Changsheng leaves with the second elder.

When he was about to leave, Lu Changsheng originally planned to start his plan of raising the Nine Nether Hounds.

But he found that the Nine Nether Hounds had already integrated into this family.

The children in the family all liked the Nine Nether Hounds very much.

If he were to take the Nine Nether Hounds away, these children would probably cry for several days.

After thinking about it, Lu Changsheng decides to continue keeping the Nine Nether Hounds at home.

After all, being able to help take care of the children is already a significant role.

It's just that it's a bit unfair to let a Heavenly Stage bloodline demonic beast accompany the children.

And on this trip back to Jiulongfang Market, Lu Changsheng also brought Lu Zier and Lu Qinger with him.

Taking the two girls out to have some fun and relax.

When the two girls arrived at Jiulongfang Market and saw the group of birds and swallows in Lu Changsheng's courtyard, they were also a little surprised.

Although they didn't mind Lu Changsheng marrying and taking concubines.

They even thought that this kind of behavior was normal.

But when other people marry and favor maidservants, it's only occasionally.

Many wives and concubines may only be favored a few times a year.

But Lu Changsheng was enjoying it all.

He would occasionally favor each one a few times, making them pregnant.

If it weren't for the fact that Lu Changsheng appeared to be in good health at night, they would really worry about their husband's body.

One month later.

Inside the Lingfu Shop.

Lu Changsheng was meditating and cultivating.

With the automatic cultivation of the Fairy Pose and the improvement of the Peach Blossom Gu, his appearance became more and more handsome.

He sat quietly with closed eyes, looking like a jade, elegant and out of the ordinary, giving people a refreshing and tranquil feeling.

After a long time.

"At this rate, I think it will take another six or seven years for me to cultivate to the peak of the seventh level of Qi Refining."

"It's really too slow, I don't know when I can draw a technique and exchange this Return to Origin Technique."

Lu Changsheng opened his eyes and looked inward at his Qi Sea Dantian, sighing.

He meditated for two hours every day.

And supplemented with the Yellow Dragon Pill and Qi Refining Powder.

But the progress was still not ideal.

Apart from the cultivation time and his spiritual roots.

Lu Changsheng believed that the biggest problem was the Return to Origin Technique he was cultivating.

This kind of primary technique was too balanced and stable.

Which made the cultivation process too slow.

Just at this moment, suddenly.

Lu Changsheng felt a mysterious and familiar tremor throughout his body.

It was the familiar tremor of spiritual roots.

It meant that a child with spiritual roots had been born, bringing him a bonus.

At the same time, a system prompt sounded.

[Congratulations to the host for giving birth to seven children with spiritual roots, and obtaining one chance to draw a lottery!]

"Is it Yun'er or Zhenzhen's child?"

Lu Changsheng's eyes immediately filled with excitement and surprise at the tremor and the system prompt.

Based on the timing, he immediately guessed that it was either Qu Zhenzhen or Lu Miaoyun's child that was born.

"If it's Miaoyun's child, then I, as the husband, am really negligent."

Lu Changsheng thought of when Lu Miaoyun gave birth to a child, he was not by her side.

If this child is also Lu Miaoyun's, and I'm not by her side again, it's really negligent.

"Hoo!"

Lu Changsheng shook his head, took a deep breath, and calmed his emotions slightly.

He felt that the spiritual roots of this child of his should not be very good.

The bonus it gave him was minimal.

It was highly likely to be a ninth-grade spiritual root.

But this kind of thing was normal.

The spiritual roots of parents would affect the spiritual roots of their children.

But it only raised the upper limit of the child's spiritual roots relatively.

It didn't mean that if the parents' spiritual roots were good, the child's spiritual roots would definitely be better.

There were many children whose spiritual roots were not as good as their parents', or even had no spiritual roots at all.

"Seven children with spiritual roots, could it be that the children with spiritual roots are two for one draw?"

Lu Changsheng thought of the rules of this lottery system and secretly said in his heart.

Without further speculation, Lu Changsheng silently said in his heart, "System, I want to draw a lottery!"

Immediately, a pale red lottery wheel appeared.

"I hope I can get a technique."

Seeing the lottery wheel in front of him, Lu Changsheng secretly said in his heart.

Then, with a thought, he directly started the draw.

A golden light appeared on the wheel and started spinning rapidly.

After a few seconds, the wheel began to slow down and finally stopped at 'Dan Medicine'.
