Chapter 2068: Chapter 684: The Five Venoms Sect Hierarch’s Shock! (Part 2) Do not mention that the son has just recently broken through the Foundation Establishment, even the late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators have died countless times. "A man should aspire to traverse far and wide. Since Qingyue is determined, let him go out and venture, besides, he has Qingxuan and the others with him." Lu Changsheng held Zhao Qingqing’s delicate hand as he spoke. Although Foundation Establishment cultivators, to him now, are akin to ants. Yet, in the surrounding area of Bi Lake Mountain, they still belong to the level of Patriarch figures. As long as he doesn’t act too foolishly, and I provide him with a few talismans for protection, if danger arises along the way, then it could only mean he’s not suited for external cultivation. Seeing Lu Changsheng speak in such a manner, Zhao Qingqing had no objections. During past pioneering wars, she and Lu Xingyue had met Lu Qingxuan many times, knowing he’s someone who can handle matters independently. With him around, their son should be safe from harm. Moreover, besides Lu Qingxuan, Qingxuan Mountain has several members of the Lu Family in Foundation Establishment, making it a notable force. "Thank you, Father, please rest assured, Mother." Lu Qingyue, upon seeing this, joyfully cupped his hands toward his parents. ... Initially, Lu Changsheng wished to catch up with Chu Qingyi, but she had long gone to guard the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range. Thinking of his concubines and children in Misty Rain Market and having barely visited them in recent years, he decided to make the trip. Returning now to Misty Rain Market, not only loose cultivators, even the sisters Yan Lan and Yu Fei showed signs of reverence and respect upon seeing Lu Changsheng. These two women developed from loose cultivators to this point, placing a vast importance on the strong preying on the weak, the hierarchy between elders and juniors. In early years, when Lu Changsheng was merely a Foundation Establishment cultivator, they were only somewhat respectful. But with Lu Changsheng’s Core Formation revealed, becoming the revered Nascent Soul Immortal, a deep-seated awe took root within them. "Father." The three children of the two women had all come of age. Yet due to life in Misty Rain Market, they found it difficult to integrate into Bi Lake Mountain, rarely seeing Lu Changsheng, so they understood their father mostly through their mothers, hearsay, with awe in their eyes. "Yes." Lu Changsheng observed the three children before him, warmly inquiring about their situation, then turned to Yan Lan’s child, "Xiao Han, how confident are you in achieving Foundation Establishment?" He could see that this son’s foundation was strong and a flawless Dao Foundation was no issue. "Replying to Father, I am absolutely confident in breaking through Foundation Establishment, but I’ve heard that above the flawless Dao Foundation, lies the perfect Dao Foundation, so I’ve aimed to try for it!" Lu Yanhan cupped his hands in reply. He possessed a second-grade spiritual root, with meridians distinct from others, capable of attempting Foundation Establishment long ago. Yet his mother informed him that his future target should be Core Formation, thus he must solidify his foundation! "If you wish to strive for the perfect Dao Foundation, you’re still lacking in some aspects; I possess a Capturing God Grass here, by consuming it and with my assistance in refinement, your probability and grasp will enhance measurably." Currently, the perfect Dao Foundation holds little difficulty for Lu Changsheng. For those lacking talent, unless their aptitude is exceedingly low, a perfect foundation is attainable through resources. Considering the respectable talent of his son, holding notions of reparation, Lu Changsheng willingly offers some resources. "Capturing God Grass!?" Lu Yanhan was unaware, but Yan Lan and Yu Fei had heard; it’s a rare third rank spirit grass, enhancing talent and refining divine sense upon consumption. Under normal circumstances, Energy Refining cultivators cannot refine it. But with Lu Changsheng, their Nascent Soul Immortal father assisting with refinement, talent and foundation will undoubtedly see further improvement. "Han’er, thank your father promptly." Yan Lan quickly urged her son. Lu Yanhan swiftly cupped hands in gratitude while Lu Yanyu and Lu Yanming watched with envious eyes. "Cultivate diligently, and when you attempt Foundation Establishment, Father will also have gifts." Lu Changsheng addressed the two children, offering encouragement. After a pause, he added: "Your elder brother recently returned from his training; you may visit Bi Lake Mountain to see him, seeking guidance on cultivation when available." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮 With Ping’an back home, he could assist in guiding family members in cultivation. Lu Changsheng intended to hand over the Cave Mystique Treasure Mirror to Lu Ping’an. That way, through teaching and mentoring, he can consolidate his cultivation knowledge, gaining broader insights. "Big Brother!" The three were startled upon hearing this. In the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family, besides renowned figures like Patriarch Lu Changsheng and Lady Lu Miaoge, others included the eldest Lu Ping’an, Talisman Fairy Lu Wangshu, and years ago, the sword immortal Lu Qingshan entered Yu Country’s Jinyang Sect, slaying a Third Rank Demon King. Thus, they had heard much about their elder brother’s reputation. Early into Foundation Establishment, with Lu Family’s main mother Ling Zixiao ambushing False Core Immortals in their mother’s Misty Rain Market, capturing Sima Family’s False Core Patriarch. Later at the Purple Shadow Secret Realm, they led Lu Family’s Dao soldiers, defeating the Shendao Shangguan Family’s Shangguan Jiuyang, astounding Jiang Country’s cultivation realm, earning the title of another Azure Phoenix True Monarch from some enthusiastic individuals. But over these past decades, they suddenly vanished without a trace, leaving everyone guessing at his whereabouts. Some speculated he was traversing after breaking through Core Formation, others thought he was in deadly seclusion, failing Core Formation, and ultimately perishing. "Father, I heard that elder brother was a step away from achieving Core Formation early on, has he returned after breakthroughs now?" Lu Yanyu curiously inquired. "You’ll find out in due time." Lu Changsheng replied with a smile, withholding any information. Beside him, Yu Fei hastily transmitted to her daughter, cautioning her about probing into family secrets. Presently, the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family already attracts much envy, with three Core Formation cultivators and a Third Rank Demon King. Should the family reveal another Nascent Soul Immortal, it will only heighten attention, drawing concern from the Supreme Sect, Qingyun. ... Evening. Afterward! Afterward! Afterward! Lu Changsheng held the sisters Yan Lan and Yu Fei, now as limp as mud and water. His hand wandered across the well-featured, agile, and tanned Yan Lan, suddenly asking: "Lan’er, I recall you’re not yet one hundred fifty years old, correct?"
