Chapter 2095: Chapter 693: Seven Apertures Exquisite, Soul-calling Beast!_3 In his early years, Lu Changsheng married into the Qingzhu Lu Family. Although he established his own family, the Bi Lake Mountain Lu Family, he always took care of Qingzhu Mountain. He was always willing to help his friends and those who had helped him, lending a hand of support. There was no need to say more about how he treated his wives, concubines, and children. To fulfill the promise made to Xiao Xiyue, he attempted an early breakthrough to Core Formation, resulting in the formation of a Fifth Grade Core. Later, during the reclamation war, he dedicated all his resources to exchange for Coagulation Crystal Elixir for his wife, Lu Miaoge. Now, he spends his wealth on improving the capabilities of his children. "Such a waste, it will be difficult to achieve the Great Dao." The Qingyun Sect Leader gently shook his head. However, upon reconsideration, nine out of ten cultivators find themselves at a dead end when breaking through to Core Formation. Attempting to break through to Nascent Soul is extremely difficult, fraught with danger. Even with endless effort and thought, it might all be in vain in the end. As someone who has now achieved Core Formation and possesses unparalleled talent in the Talisman Path, spending all his time and energy on the family, the current situation of the Lu Family might allow them to become the foremost power in Jiang Country, lasting indefinitely, below the Four Great Immortal Sects. "The path of the family is to sacrifice the self for the greater good." As the Qingyun Sect Leader, he fully understood such behavior. ... "Tsk... Having backing is indeed good." As Lu Changsheng walked out of Qingyun Peak, he sighed inwardly. Moreover, as his own backing, it would never collapse. After staying at Hundred Herbs Peak for several more days, Lu Changsheng prepared to leave for Misty Rain Market and take a look at his daughter, Lu Ruyi, along with bringing her the Heaven-replenishing Elixir. For one, the elixir is quite valuable. On the other hand, he hadn’t seen this daughter in a long time. Three days later, Lu Ruyi sensed the storage bag token and immediately rushed out to welcome him. From a distance, she saw a young man in a green robe, handsome and ethereal, with a tall and upright figure, a gentle smile at the corner of his mouth, looking at her. "Father, why have you come?" She immediately approached with joy and greeted him with clasped hands. "It’s been quite a while since I last saw you, so I came to check on you." Time leaves no trace, yet the marks of age are evident. Although Lu Ruyi was still heroic and valiant as she was years ago, with her long hair tied high and dressed in a green armor, her face now showed some traces of aging, seemingly older than Lu Changsheng, her father. On one hand, she was only a Foundation Establishment cultivator, now over ninety years old, and was not practicing Nourishing Life Technique. On the other hand, as the head of the Lu Family Commerce Association, she needed some authority and had not been using beauty-preserving elixirs consistently. "Father, you are a Nascent Soul Immortal, now serving as Deputy City Lord in Great Dream Immortal City, naturally you have many affairs to attend to..." Lu Ruyi felt a bit restrained, having not seen her father, who was a Nascent Soul Immortal, for a long time. However, her father’s gentle and jade-like eyes and demeanor made her instinctively relaxed, naturally feeling close, as she began to share her ordinary days and recent events with him, just like in the past. Lu Changsheng listened quietly, occasionally nodding and asking about some details. "Very good, this is a gift I prepared for you as a reward." Lu Changsheng handed the Heaven-replenishing Elixir to his daughter, speaking warmly. "Thank you, father." Lu Ruyi knew that once her father offered a reward, he would not retract it, so she accepted without declining. "Won’t you take a look?" Such a rare elixir, Lu Changsheng naturally wanted to watch his daughter consume it. Hearing this, Lu Ruyi opened the porcelain bottle and saw the Heaven-replenishing Elixir inside, the size of a dragon eye, glistening with life-like energy, prompting her surprise as she said, "Father, what is this elixir?" As the head of the Lu Family Commerce Association, she was knowledgeable and could tell that the elixir was extraordinary, yet she didn’t recognize it. "This is called the ’Heaven-replenishing Elixir’, capable of compensating for Spiritual Root deficiencies, refining Innate Spirit Root, thereby enhancing its quality." Lu Changsheng explained with a smile. "Heaven-replenishing Elixir? Is this the legendary Heaven-replenishing Elixir!?" Having only an eighth-grade Spiritual Root, Lu Ruyi naturally paid close attention to elixirs and treasures that could improve Spiritual Root talent. Over the years, she utilized the commerce association to gather Heaven and Earth spiritual materials related to this. However, elixirs that enhance Spiritual Root were extremely rare, far beyond the reach of anyone at the Foundation Establishment level. The most renowned among them was the Heaven-replenishing Elixir! But the value of the Heaven-replenishing Elixir was so rare, even more so than the [Coagulation Crystal Elixir], that not even a Nascent Soul Immortal could easily obtain it. "Father, this... this is too precious, I... really can’t accept it..." Knowing the value of the Heaven-replenishing Elixir, Lu Ruyi struggled to suppress her excitement and tried returning the elixir to her father. After all, selling herself, or even the entire Lu Family Commerce Association, wouldn’t amount to the worth of this elixir. "When a gift is given by an elder, it must not be declined. Since I’ve given this elixir to you, you should accept it." "Your efforts over the years have not gone unnoticed by me. Taking this elixir would allow you to swiftly cultivate to the peak of Foundation Establishment Sixth Layer, break through to late Foundation Establishment on your own, with the potential to achieve Core Formation in the future." Lu Ruyi was his first daughter with a Spiritual Root, and Lu Changsheng still vaguely remembered her as a newborn. Thus, for this daughter, Lu Changsheng naturally showed a bit of extra regard. "Core Formation..." Despite her resolve, Lu Ruyi was stirred by her father’s words, her heart now throbbing with longing. After all, how many could resist the lure of Core Formation? "Take it." Seeing his daughter’s conflicted expression, desiring yet reluctant, Lu Changsheng found it amusing and with a twirl of his fingers, the Heaven-replenishing Elixir, shimmering, flew out from the porcelain bottle and directly into Lu Ruyi’s mouth. "Boom!" The moment Lu Ruyi consumed the elixir, a profound and mysterious sensation immediately surged through her body. Her Spiritual Root! Her Spiritual Root was resonating! An esoteric force was causing her Spiritual Root to resonate. "Focus on refining it."
