Chapter 943: Chapter 338: Repeat Rewards, Head to the Purple Shadow Secret Realm!_3 Lu Changsheng looked at the two sisters and spoke up to remind them. “Daddy? Since when do cultivators have bad teeth?” Lu Wangshu revealed her own snow-white, neatly arranged teeth. Then, with a flick of her index finger and thumb, she popped a candy into her little sister’s mouth, saying, “Right, Xiaohe?” “Mmm-hmm.” Lu Linghe nodded vigorously. Watching this scene, Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but wonder. Was having Lu Wangshu spend more time getting close to these siblings a good thing, or a bad thing? Could it lead them astray? He felt it was necessary to seriously consider this issue. Long after, Lu Changsheng finished polishing a puppet part and stood up, calling it a day. Although he said he was making a puppet for his daughter, such a project with its great scope would certainly take a year or two to deliver. Lu Changsheng, with his children in tow, left the Puppet Workshop and returned to the Lu Family Mansion. “Husband, today I saw a young woman who I think would be very suitable for Quanzhen…” Qu Zhenzhen approached Lu Changsheng as soon as she saw him, eager to share. Because of the Purple Shadow Secret Realm matter, Lu Changsheng had not asked Lu Quanzhen to return to White Tiger Mountain to take charge, instead leaving the matter to his son Lu Qingsong. And during these days, Qu Zhenzhen’s routine marriage pushing had resumed. After all, with four children, Lu Yuzhen, Lu Caizhen, and Lu Huaizhen all settled down, it was natural for her to put her heart and soul into getting the eldest son, Lu Quanzhen, married. “Mmm, alright, Zhenzhen, you make the decision. As long as Quanzhen agrees, I will go propose immediately.” Lu Changsheng smiled and nodded, wanting nothing to do with these matters. “But Quanzhen is avoiding me, and I don’t know where he’s gone.” Qu Zhenzhen said, feeling somewhat aggrieved. Two months ago, Qu Zhenzhen had finally cultivated the Auspicious Tree as her life-bound Spiritual Root. The effect was a few notches below Lu Miaoyun’s, boosting her only to the Eighth Level Energy Refinement. However, she did undergo quite a change. Not only did she look a few years younger, but she also gained a somewhat ethereal and natural aura. That night, Lu Changsheng attempted dual cultivation with Qu Zhenzhen to see if he could gain any special traits from the Auspicious Tree. At the end of their dual cultivation, Lu Changsheng’s mental spirit was utterly calm, free of all distractions, as if he’d entered a sage-like state. Because of this, he immediately gave up on practicing the Tender Embrace Technique with Qu Zhenzhen — in the long run, who could withstand such tranquility? “Ha, it’s good that Quanzhen is dedicated to his cultivation, and getting married later is no problem. Let him be.” Lu Changsheng said offhandedly. Although he encouraged his children to procreate, he still maintained an attitude of letting nature take its course. After all, he would still support them if the children wished to pursue cultivation diligently. “But getting married doesn’t affect one’s cultivation.” Qu Zhenzhen replied. Although she had heard that getting married could hinder cultivation, her own husband, with a bevy of wives and a house full of children, didn’t seem to be affected in the least. Thus, clearly, that rumor was false! “Hehe, children and grandchildren have their own luck. If Zhenzhen likes children so much, we could have a few more.” Lu Changsheng wrapped his arm around his petite wife and whispered in her ear. “Husband~” Upon hearing this, Qu Zhenzhen’s cheeks flushed with embarrassment. Such an old couple they were, with children already so grown, and yet they were contemplating more kids. But Qu Zhenzhen thought of the books that stated if both parents were formidable, the children they bore would be clever and formidable, with exceptional talents. If she could become a Foundation Building Great Cultivator like her sister Miaoyun, the child she and her husband would have might be as outstanding as Qingshan, with exceptional talent. At this moment, she felt a twinge of anticipation. After all, her husband truly adored children. And she could see that he showed a bit more affection for those with extraordinary talents. … That day, a system notification resounded in Lu Changsheng’s mind. [Congratulations, Host, for a hundred of your progeny breaking through to the Martial Dao Innate, granting a Bloodline Effect: a 3% increase in the probability of offspring having Spiritual Roots, and a chance for one lottery draw!] “Mm? It’s changed from fertility probability to offspring Spiritual Root probability…” Lu Changsheng noticed a change in the bloodline effects granted by the system. It had previously been about the probability of him having more descendants. Now it was about the probability of his offspring having Spiritual Roots. “3%; not bad at all…” 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶 Lu Changsheng didn’t feel the probability was small. On one hand, there was still potential for improvement in the future. On the other hand, the probability of mortals giving birth to offspring with a Spiritual Root was exceedingly low. The Lu Family’s third generation numbered over two hundred and forty people now. Yet among them, only nineteen children had a Spiritual Root. The reason was simple; when it came to childbirth, even with policy encouragement, the primary population still came from the secular world, without Spiritual Roots. On Bi Lake Mountain’s side, only a few obedient children like Lu Yun and Lu Xianzhi started families early and had offspring. Few other children chose to marry. Lu Changsheng was roughly aware that it should be because of himself, a father with a Ninth Grade Spiritual Root, having achieved so much. Therefore, even the children in the family with Lower Grade Spiritual Roots still harbored some dreams of Foundation Establishment, striving as much as possible while they were young. “Not even a hundred, and it’s just a normal lottery.” Lu Changsheng, seeing it was only a normal lottery, felt somewhat listless. Having experienced several Advanced Level lotteries, he gradually became somewhat disdainful of normal lotteries. However, since he had already received the Child Money, he naturally wouldn’t waste it. “System, draw the lottery.” As his words fell, the System’s Great Roulette began to spin rapidly. Then it slowly stopped at the ‘Elixir Medicines’ category. [Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a bottle of Purple Mansion Elixir!] [The reward has been delivered to the System Space; the host may check it at any time.] An image of an elixir appeared from the roulette accompanied by a system notification sound. “Purple Mansion Elixir? The system rewards can draw duplicate rewards?” Lu Changsheng’s eyebrows raised. He had drawn the lottery over forty times now. This was the first time he had drawn a repeated reward. [Elixir Medicine: Purple Mansion Elixir] [Quality: Third Rank] [Description: Can purify the soul, clarify the physical body, strengthen the divine sense and physique.] “Indeed exactly the same, but this Purple Mansion Elixir is still quite good.” Lu Changsheng pondered about the Purple Mansion Elixir in his System Space. Although the Purple Mansion Elixir was not as good as the Coagulation Crystal Elixir, a bottle of ten pills could still be considered top-tier elixir medicines. Originally, after he had consumed ten Purple Mansion Elixirs, not only was his physical body enhanced, but his divine sense jumped from the Initial Stage of Foundation Establishment to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage! This improvement could not be said to be small! “Now that Quanzhen and Qing Shan are about to break through Foundation Establishment, this Purple Mansion Elixir will be used by them when the time comes.” Lu Changsheng thought to himself. Now that his physical body and divine sense would get limited effects from consuming the Purple Mansion Elixir, it would be better to let his children consume it. After all, when they broke through their realms, it would also reflect back onto him. Immediately, Lu Changsheng extracted the Purple Mansion Elixir from the System Space and placed it into his Storage Ring. “Looking at the time, the Purple Shadow Secret Realm should also be about to open.” Lu Changsheng thought of the Purple Shadow Secret Realm and prepared to send Lu Quanzhen there. As for Lu Qingshan, his master Tianyuan True Immortal had already indicated he would come to receive him, so it was unnecessary for Lu Changsheng to escort him. Soon after, Lu Changsheng explained things to Lu Miaoge, Ling Zixiao, and Lu Qingshan, and then took Lu Quanzhen away from Bi Lake Mountain toward Ziyun Gorge, where the Purple Shadow Secret Realm was located. The distance from Bi Lake Mountain to Ziyun Gorge was not very far. Heading north, it was approximately a month’s journey by controlling a Spirit Boat. Just as Lu Changsheng was sending Lu Quanzhen to the Purple Shadow Secret Realm, in a mountain range, “It seems to be in this direction, right? Ping’an, look, am I going the right way?” Lu Ping’an, tall and robust in a green outfit, rode on a black spirit horse, holding a map and asking Ping’an beside him. Ping’an looked at the map for a long time, then nodded, indicating it should be correct. “Since it’s right, then let’s set off again!” Lu Ping’an promptly packed up the spirit horse and continued on his way. Three months ago, he had been continuously investigating and had blasted to death several Parasitic Cultivators who had ambushed him. During this time, he heard the news that the Purple Shadow Secret Realm was opening. Having long known of the famous Purple Shadow Secret Realm, Ping’an knew that it was most renowned for producing primary Spiritual Medicine for Foundation Establishment Elixirs, the Heavenly Spirit Fruit! Thinking of his current strength, an idea suddenly sprang to mind to take a trip to the Purple Shadow Secret Realm. He hoped to see if he could gain anything and find a few Heavenly Spirit Fruits. In this way, not only would his own future Foundation Establishment be hopeful, but he could also prepare Foundation Establishment Elixirs for his aunt and siblings. So, he bought a map, and instead of going home, he changed his course toward the Purple Shadow Secret Realm.
