Chapter 2417 - 799: Xiao Xiyue’s Bewilderment, Great Geng Golden Sword Body!
Chapter 2417: Chapter 799: Xiao Xiyue’s Bewilderment, Great Geng Golden Sword Body!
In an instant, the towering image of Yun Wanshang in Xiao Xiyue’s heart completely shattered.
Realizing that Master is actually just a woman, not as sacred and untouchable as imagined...
"Troublemaker! Peach Blossom Spirit!"
Xiao Xiyue angrily cursed at Lu Changsheng.
Lu Changsheng was puzzled and said to the Peach Blossom Gu in his Sea of Consciousness: "She’s scolding you."
Peach Blossom Gu: "???"
Now that things have come to this, Xiao Xiyue naturally couldn’t say much more and just cursed Lu Changsheng in her anger, then continued to inquire about his matters with Senior Sister Chu Qingyi.
Although she had already guessed their situation, she wasn’t clear on the details.
Since Yun Wanshang’s matters had been discussed, Lu Changsheng naturally wouldn’t hide the details about Chu Qingyi, and frankly revealed them.
However, as time had passed, Lu Ancestor had forgotten some details, so he embellished a bit.
But after Xiao Xiyue finished listening, she couldn’t help but give young Lu Changsheng a couple of slaps.
...
They say that couples may quarrel at the bedside but reconcile at the foot of the bed.
Between a couple, whatever issue arises, as long as it’s discussed openly, it’s fine.
Thus, several days later, Lu Changsheng and Xiao Xiyue walked out of Changsheng Hall.
Originally, Xiao Xiyue had agreed to visit Qingyun Sect with Lu Changsheng to meet the Master, but now she hesitated, planning to fully accept the matter before going.
Lu Changsheng didn’t force her on this.
He too was unsure how to face Yun Wanshang, intending to spend time with his family before heading to Qingyun Sect.
As soon as he walked out of Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven, he noticed someone at the distant Lake Heart Island trying to establish their Foundation.
In early years, only the main peak, Bi Yun Peak, of Bi Lake Mountain was best suited for realm breakthroughs.
But since Bi Yun Peak was promoted to Third Rank and Bi Shui Lake, Lingcui Cliff, Bailian Peak, and Xuanfu Peak all promoted to Second Rank, Bi Shui Lake became the site for Lu Family disciples’ breakthroughs to Foundation Establishment.
Guest Elders or some cultivators wanting to rent Cave Mansions for breakthroughs are also arranged at Bi Shui Lake.
Lu Changsheng glanced over but paid no heed, as he went with Xiao Xiyue to see their daughter, Lu Wangshu.
However, upon arriving at the latter’s small courtyard, they learned that their daughter had gone out to play with Lu Linghe, Lu Baixi, Lu Qingqi, and others, also taking the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng.
"Hopefully, they won’t cause any trouble outside?"
With the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng accompanying them, Lu Changsheng naturally wasn’t worried about them encountering difficulties.
Instead, he worried that the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng might attract attention.
Estimating with his fingers, he realized he was overthinking.
The group was merely taking the Golden Peng to play in the surrounding area and wouldn’t cause any trouble.
Following that, Lu Changsheng didn’t pay it any mind, and spent time at home accompanying his wives and teaching his children, relaxing his mind and enjoying leisure.
[Detected host’s offspring Spirit Body upgrade, conflicting effects, would you like to choose fusion?]
Suddenly, a system prompt sounded in Lu Changsheng’s mind.
He was momentarily stunned.
Child’s Spirit Body upgrade?
Though Spirit Bodies can be upgraded through consuming rare Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, or cultivation methods for Acquired Spirit Bodies, or through refining.
But no matter the method, it’s quite difficult.
Just like the cultivation techniques he mastered, several contain methods for cultivating Acquired Spirit Bodies, yet he has no intention to practice them.
It requires time, effort, and resources.
However, now with the children’s Spirit Body upgrading at home, Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but be surprised and opened the system to check whose Spirit Body had upgraded.
Moments later, a system interface appeared before him.
[Name: Lu Qingshan]
[Life Span: 109/481]
[Talent: Fourth Grade Spiritual Root, Great Geng Golden Sword Body (Upper-Class Spirit Body)]
[Cultivation Level: Core Formation Third Layer]
[Talent: Sword Dao Compatibility (123%)]
"Qingshan then..."
Lu Changsheng saw his son’s Geng Metal Body had transformed into the Great Geng Golden Sword Body and upgraded from Intermediate Spirit Body to Upper-Class Spirit Body.
Although this improvement was not large, far from comparable to Lu Quanzhen, Lu Changsheng could understand that his son must have put in considerable effort.
Apart from this, Lu Changsheng noticed his son’s lifespan.
Four hundred and eighty-one.
He remembered when his son broke through to Core Formation, his lifespan exceeded five hundred.
Now it decreased by decades, probably due to the Liangyue War, the fierce battles and magical confrontations involved.
According to Lu Miaohuan and Xiao Xiyue, Lu Qingshan’s sharpness was too excessive and encountered the ambush of a Core Formation Grand Cultivator from Yue Country.
However, for a Sword Cultivator like Lu Qingshan, long-term intense combat can also easily damage the body, leading to a reduction in lifespan.
"I should visit Yue Country later, otherwise with Qingshan’s personality, prolonged combat might lead to mysterious injuries."
Physical mysterious injuries are the most common problem for cultivators practicing metal-type and fire attribute offensive cultivation techniques.
Moreover, Lu Qingshan inherently possessed a certain fierce determination.
While comprehending the Sword Dao Origin of the Great Luo Sword Embryo, he dared to imprint the rules and patterns of the Great Luo Sword Embryo onto his physical body and Dao Foundation, almost disregarding his own life.
In other words, he had a certain inexplicable confidence.
Lu Changsheng did not immediately integrate the Great Geng Golden Sword Body but continued conversing with his wife.
At the same time.
Jinyang Sect, Tian Yuan Peak.
In the secret chamber, the Geng Metal Sword Qi was like a crisp autumn wind, carving marks on the surrounding mystical iron walls.
"The Great Geng Golden Sword Body is finally achieved, Black Eagle old dog, once I break through to the Core Formation Middle Stage, I’ll slaughter you!"
Lu Qingshan’s blue robe was torn and tattered, his hair disheveled, with no semblance of dignity.
Yet his entire body exuded an unparalleled aura, sharp and fierce.
Five years ago, at the edge of the battlefield, he encountered the eagle falcon True Man from Beast God Mountain.
If not for the Life-Substituting Talisman given by his father, protective talismans, and the sect’s life-saving elixir, he would have nearly died at the opponent’s hands.
Therefore, these years he retreated into closed-door cultivation, not only cultivating but harboring resentment, directly using his Geng Metal Spirit Body as the foundation to break and stand, condensing the Acquired Spirit Body of the Great Geng Metal Sword Art.
However, his Great Geng Metal Sword Art was no longer the initial sword technique of Jinyang Sect, incorporating many of his own concepts, so this sword body was custom-made for himself.
If it weren’t for the lack of resources and time, he was even confident of further advances.
After all, starting is the hardest part, and now the most difficult step has been taken.
After emerging from the secret chamber, he performed a Cleansing Technique on himself, discarded the magical robe torn to shreds by sword Qi, and donned a brand-new magical robe.
Not long after, a woman adorned in a Rainbow Feather Garment, with a beautiful appearance, arrived, seeing him, joyfully shouted, "Brother, you’re out of seclusion."
"Little Bamboo,"
Lu Qingshan called out to his sister boldly, asking her how she had been these years and about the external situation.
Since he returned heavily injured to recuperate, he naturally wanted to bring his sister back to the sect, to prevent her from being in danger on the battlefield.
With his current strength and merits, he was convincing enough, and no one had any objections.
Even without his saying, the Core Formation Immortals of Jinyang Sect would try their best to protect Lu Qingzhu.
To prevent Lu Qingshan, the Nascent Soul Seed, from having issues with the sect if he saw his sister injured.
"Hmm!? Aunt went to Yue Country?"
As Lu Qingshan listened to his sister recount the situation over the years, he realized that the war was increasingly unfavorable for Yue Country.
If it weren’t for the continuous support from Jiang Country, the frontline might have already collapsed.
"If it drags on, and Liang Country has another Nascent Soul Cultivator appear, or Yuan Country provides further support, it will be troublesome."
Lu Qingshan, now a Core Formation Elder of Jinyang Sect, could access much strategic information.
He was aware that Yuan and Liang Countries hadn’t completely cooperated, or rather, Liang Country didn’t want Yuan Country to be too deeply involved.
Yet, under such circumstances, Liang Country still refused to cease warfare, making the Immortal Sects of Yue Country realize that Liang Country might be nurturing some great killing device, or someone is preparing for Nascent Soul.
"Let’s go, I’ll accompany you to see Aunt."
Lu Qingshan said to his sister, preparing to visit Aunt Lu Miaoge, and perhaps earn some military merits in the process.
"Brother, the Sect Leader previously said you should try not to go out, Master also said to inform her once you’re out of seclusion."
Lu Qingzhu had seen Lu Qingshan heavily injured before, aware that he was on the hunting list of Liang Country, and that wandering out would easily expose him to attacks.
"No problem."
Lu Qingshan didn’t care, aware that it’s difficult for enemy Core Formation Grand Cultivators to infiltrate Yue Country without good opportunities.
As for ordinary Core Formation Middle Stage cultivators, he had no fear and felt capable of facing them.
Besides, asking him to remain confined in the sect was worse than death.
Now, wartime is the perfect opportunity to earn military merits.
If the situation indeed evolved as he suspected, with Liang Country having a Nascent Soul breakthrough or Yuan Country increasing support, the frontline collapsing would mean trouble for Jinyang Sect.
"Brother!" Lu Qingzhu immediately persuaded, unwilling to let him go out.
"Rest assured, there won’t be any danger, the previous situation was accidental."
Lu Qingshan said softly.
The earlier situation was an ambush, taking him completely by surprise, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been injured so severely.
Thinking of how his sister cried miserably upon seeing him, Lu Qingshan’s killing intent towards the Black Eagle True Man intensified.
In the future, if he catches him, he would make him taste the power of his Seven Luminaries Great Geng Gold Killing Array!
But facing his sister’s stubborn gaze, Lu Qingshan had no choice but to reluctantly agree to visit the Sect Leader first, notify his Master, and then head out.
