Chapter 1208: Chapter 420: Bloodline Awakening, Auction Begins!_2 "However, in this process, the soul was originally in a dormant state, and now Bing’er’s situation is that of a new consciousness born from the body..." Hong Lian spoke out. Although cultivators have limited lifespans. In the Cultivation World, there are still many techniques and methods to extend one’s life, even reincarnating afresh. Among these, the most common are methods such as Ghost Cultivators, Corpse Cultivators, or Body Snatching. However, these methods are forbidden by the natural order and come with great costs. "Hmm." Lu Changsheng nodded, tending more towards the second possibility. Because if it were someone else’s doing, why choose a place like the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range. Moreover, in the underground palace, aside from the Great Formation, there were no other protective measures. But if it was due to encountering danger while still alive, being in a critical state makes much more sense. Regardless, Bing’er’s situation is very unusual, she must have been at least a Nascent Soul True Lord before! "Also, I wonder if Bing’er might become pregnant?" At this moment, Lu Changsheng suddenly thought of a problem. During his union with Bai Ling and Bing’er, he shared intimately. Thus, he did not rule out the possibility of Bing’er getting pregnant. However, according to common sense, a corpse’s body wouldn’t become pregnant. But Bing’er’s case couldn’t be measured with common sense. "Many Demi-Demons, or those who possess special Bloodline Power, might inadvertently consume some heavenly and earthly treasures, or cultivate some Cultivation Technique, and thus may unexpectedly activate the power of their bloodline." "Bai Ling might be just such a case; Young Master just needs to wait for some time to find out." Hong Lian’s voice was gentle and pleasant as she continued speaking. "Good." Lu Changsheng nodded, then he inquired about Hong Lian’s situation with concern. He learned that she was at the final stage of forming her body. It would take at most two to three years for her to be born from the Spiritual Embryo. Afterward, Lu Changsheng returned inside the Cave Mansion, looking at the dazzling cocoon on the bed that shimmered with a platinum radiance. He closely monitored Bai Ling’s situation to avoid any accidents during the process. ... Bi Yun Peak, a courtyard. Lu Yun walked out of the Practice Room, his face still somewhat pale and languid. Although the failed Foundation Establishment didn’t cause him severe injury, it still damaged his vitality and he needed a long rest. "Master, Grandpa, Grandpa." A woman in the courtyard, along with two young children, looked at Lu Yun and immediately called out. This was his wife and their grandchildren. "Hmm, Jie’er, Fu’er." Lu Yun, seeing his wife and the two young children, his mature face showed a hint of a smile. As one gets older, there tends to be a close bond with the grandchildren. His initial few children did not possess Spiritual Roots, which led him to have a distant feeling towards his children, with not much expectation placed on them. Later, as he took on the role of Family Head, he rarely paid attention to his children at home. Now having stepped down from the position of Family Head, seeing his grandchildren before him, he felt quite emotional. "Jie’er and Fu’er will also have their Spiritual Roots tested in a couple of years, right?" Lu Yun asked his wife. Early in his years, under the arrangement of his mother Lu Miaoyun, he had three wives and six concubines, fathering twenty-five children. However, out of those twenty-five children, only five possessed Spiritual Roots, the rest were sent to Ruyi Prefecture. "Jie’er and Fu’er are four and a half years old, they can go for the Spiritual Root test next year." Hearing this, his wife’s fair face showed a trace of worry. Although both parents of these twin grandchildren have Spiritual Roots, it’s still not guaranteed that they will have them as well. And even possessing Spiritual Roots, if they are merely Lower Grade, the path to becoming a cultivator is bleak. "Grandpa, will I have a Spiritual Root?" Lu Yuanjie, standing nearby, asked with his little head raised. Having been born in Bi Lake Mountain, influenced by what they saw and heard, they naturally knew about Spiritual Roots and cultivation. "Spiritual Roots..." Lu Yun, looking at his grandson’s slightly chubby face, became a bit lost in thought, reminiscing about his eldest son. When he was young, he seemed to have asked the same question. But now his son’s face had become somewhat blurred in his memory. "Certainly, when my Jie’er grows up, Grandpa will teach you how to cultivate." Seeing his grandson’s hopeful eyes, Lu Yun, his face slightly pallid yet aged, revealed a gentle smile and softly spoke. After chatting for a while, his wife took the two grandchildren and left. Lu Yun leaned back on the recliner, looking up at the azure sky, muttering: "Spiritual Roots...." "Ninth Grade Spiritual Roots, even if one has Spiritual Roots, ninety percent are just Lower Grade. "Lower Grade Spiritual Roots, even with chances and Foundation Establishment Elixirs, making Foundation Establishment is immensely difficult..." Previously seeing how his siblings managed Foundation Establishment, Lu Yun thought it wasn’t as hard as imagined. All that was needed was a Foundation Establishment Elixir, and success was highly likely. Yet only after his own attempt at Foundation Establishment did he realize that it was several times harder than he had thought. "It’s also my own inadequacy..." Lu Yun thought of Lu Quanzhen, Lu Ruyi, Lu Qingsong, Lu Caizhen, and sighed deeply. After all, their father not only prepared Foundation Establishment Elixirs and Spirit Objects but also assisted through external forces. In such circumstances, his own failure at Foundation Establishment could only mean his own incompetence, and he couldn’t blame others. Otherwise, why did Lu Quanzhen, Lu Ruyi, Lu Qingsong, and Lu Caizhen, all with the same Lower Grade Spiritual Roots, succeed at Foundation Establishment? "Without the Foundation Establishment Elixirs, even with Middle Grade Spiritual Roots, making Foundation Establishment is immensely difficult, the hope is slim..." Lu Yun, hearing the playful noises outside the small courtyard, slightly turned his head and mused to himself. Having been the Family Head for many years, he was very aware that even with the family’s wealth, it was impossible to provide a Foundation Establishment Elixir for everyone. It was only his father’s generosity that now allowed his siblings to receive an elixir once they reached the Ninth Level Energy Refinement. In the future, as the number of people increases, for the third and fourth generations of the Lu Family, it will be difficult for everyone to have a Foundation Establishment Elixir; they must rely on their own efforts and compete. "Without support, among my descendants, perhaps none might breakthrough Foundation Establishment...."
