Chapter 259: Chapter 128: Giving Birth to a Spiritual Body, Double Lottery Draw!_3
“`
He bore none of the composure that the Patriarch of the Lu Family usually displayed.
He reached out to touch and pinch the baby’s small face, causing the infant to cry out with a ‘wah’.
“Hahaha, Yu Shu, Huan’er’s child is born.”
“Your grandson is born, did you hear that?”
Lu Yuanding, however, started laughing, his eyes moistening as he did.
Hearing this, everyone knew that Lu Yuanding was missing his wife, the mother of Lu Miaohuan and Lu Miaoge.
“Oh oh oh, there there, don’t cry, don’t cry.”
Lu Yuanding began to soothe the child again.
“Changsheng, let’s name the child Qing Shan.”
Lu Yuanding said aloud.
He had previously mentioned the naming of the child.
Thinking of the names for the children of Lu Miaoge and Lu Miaohuan.
A boy would be named Qing Shan, and a girl, Qing Zhu.
“As Father-in-law wishes.”
Lu Changsheng nodded.
He had been through so many names already.
He wasn’t particularly concerned about naming,
feeling that it was all the same regardless of who chose it.
He also knew that the name Lu Yuanding had chosen carried the meaning of Qingzhu Mountain.
In this manner, with everyone making merry and soothing the baby, Lu Changsheng finally found some free time after dinner.
“System.”
Lu Changsheng entered the study and silently called out in his mind.
[Name: Lu Changsheng]
[Identity: Son-in-law of the Lu Family of Qingzhu Mountain]
[Cultivation Level: Eighth Level Energy Refinement]
[Lifespan: 29/155]
[Talents: Sixth Grade Spiritual Root, Gengjin Body Constitution (Medium Grade Spiritual Body)]
[Cultivation Techniques: Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art, Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture, Yin Yang Harmony Technique, Immortal Beauty Technique]
[Spells: Seven Luminaries Sword Beam, Seven Luminaries Sword Shield, Seven Luminaries Sword Flight…]
[Items: Golden Light Brick Talisman Treasure, Black Dragon Magical Bead, Book of Malevolent Curses and Fates, Life-Substituting Talisman, Profound Origin Bead, Second Rank Puppet…]
[Skills: Talisman Making (Second Rank), Puppetry (Second Rank)]
[Spiritual Pets: Nine Netherhound, Peach Blossom Gu]
[Descendants: 90/97]
“Gengjin Body Constitution? Is this my child’s Spiritual Body?”
Lu Changsheng saw that an additional Gengjin Body Constitution was listed under his own talents.
Immediately, he knew this was his son, Lu Qingshan’s Spiritual Body.
He instantly looked toward the Descendants section, his spirit stirring slightly.
[Name: Lu Qingshan]
[Lifespan: 1/84]
[Talents: Sixth Grade Spiritual Root, Gengjin Body Constitution (Medium Grade Spiritual Body)]
[Cultivation Level: None]
“As expected.”
Lu Changsheng saw the panel for his son and inwardly said as expected.
Not only did he possess a Sixth Grade Spiritual Root, but also the Gengjin Body Constitution.
“The Gengjin Body Constitution is one of the more common types among the Five Elements Spiritual Body.”
“I wonder which attribute my son’s Spiritual Root leans towards.”
“If the Spiritual Root also leans toward the metal attribute, even with a Sixth Grade Spiritual Root, as long as he cultivates metal attribute cultivation techniques, his cultivation speed will not be any weaker than those with higher grade Spiritual Roots.”
Lu Changsheng felt a surge of excitement and joy.
Out of curiosity about Spiritual Bodies and because of Xia Zhizue’s Spiritual Body, he had looked through a lot of information about them.
He knew some of the more common Spiritual Bodies.
This Gengjin Body Constitution was one of them.
Although it wasn’t considered a rare Spiritual Body, it was still a Spiritual Body.
Knowing that this type of Spiritual Body, when paired with a Spiritual Root of the same attribute and cultivating metal attribute cultivation techniques, could match the cultivation speed of a higher grade Spiritual Root.
Moreover, it didn’t just enhance the cultivation speed.
Cultivating the corresponding attribute techniques, spells, and divine skills would also be more powerful, surpassing those of the same rank.
“It would be best if it’s a metal attribute Spiritual Root, but it doesn’t matter if it’s not.”
“Moreover, I have the Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture, so there’s no need to worry about any attribute of cultivation techniques unless my son has a mutant Spiritual Root.”
Lu Changsheng exhaled softly.
“`
There was now an added anticipation for the future of this child.
He was the first prodigy of the Lu Family.
All the children before had Lower Grade Spiritual Roots.
This one, not only has a Middle Grade Spiritual Root, but also possesses a Spiritual Body.
Immediately after, Lu Changsheng began his cultivation in a seated position.
He personally experienced the effects of this Gengjin Body Constitution.
After a long while.
“Is it because the child has just been born, and the Spiritual Body is still growing?”
After briefly cultivating, Lu Changsheng could feel his intake and outflow of Spiritual Energy during Qi Refinement was smoother with the metal attribute.
But the effect was not as astounding or transformative as one might imagine.
He guessed in his heart that it was because the child was newly born.
Like the Spiritual Root, this Gengjin Body Constitution was still growing.
It needed to reach a certain age to be fully developed.
“I cultivate the Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture, and this Gengjin Body Constitution mainly enhances the lethality of my spells somewhat, not contributing much to cultivation itself.”
“The quickness of metal attribute Spiritual Energy might even affect the balance I maintain while cultivating the other attributes.”
“Unless in the future I have more children, providing me with one of each of the Five Elements Spiritual Body types,” Lu Changsheng mused to himself.
He knew that such a Spiritual Body is best paired with corresponding attribute cultivation techniques.
If one cultivates other attribute techniques, it might even be detrimental.
And the Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture that he cultivated required maintaining a balance among the seven attributes of yin, yang, and the five elements.
Lu Changsheng didn’t pay too much attention to this.
Thinking of the two additional draw chances he had, he silently invoked: “System draw.”
Immediately, the system’s spinning wheel appeared.
“Start the draw!”
Seeing the roulette wheel, Lu Changsheng didn’t overthink it.
With a thought, he directly initiated the draw.
Suddenly, a beam of golden light swiftly moved around the wheel, eventually settling on ‘Elixir Medicines.’
[Ding! Congratulations Host on obtaining a Third Rank Coagulation Crystal Elixir!]
[Reward has been issued to the System Space, available for Host to check at any time]
An elixir medicine icon emerged from the spinning wheel, accompanied by a system notification.
“Coagulation Crystal Elixir!?”
Lu Changsheng was surprised to see what he had drawn.
He naturally knew what the Coagulation Crystal Elixir was.
It was somewhat similar to the Foundation Establishment Elixir.
But it was many times more precious than a Foundation Establishment Elixir.
An elixir that could help Foundation Establishment Cultivators increase their chances of reaching Core Formation and enhance the quality of their core.
For most Cultivators, even a Foundation Establishment Elixir was a luxury, hard to come by.
And this Coagulation Crystal Elixir that aids in Core Formation, its preciousness could be imagined.
[Elixir Medicine: Coagulation Crystal Elixir]
[Quality: Third Rank]
[Description: When a Cultivator at the peak of Foundation Establishment attempts Core Formation, consuming this can increase the chances of Core Formation by thirty percent and also improve the quality of the core formed]
Within the System Space, information about the Coagulation Crystal Elixir appeared.
“Thirty percent increase in the chances of forming a core, and it even has some benefits to the core’s quality.”
“It seems this Coagulation Crystal Elixir is just like the Lifespan Extension Pill I drew before, belonging to the Supreme category, which is why it has such effects,” Lu Changsheng thought.
“With this Coagulation Crystal Elixir, I won’t have to worry about Core Formation once I have established my foundation,” Lu Changsheng said with a joyful expression.
He had initially wanted to draw a Foundation Establishment Elixir.
Unexpectedly, his draw turned out to be a Coagulation Crystal Elixir, which was of a higher grade and more precious than a Foundation Establishment Elixir.
“But Core Formation is still quite far off for me,” Lu Changsheng sighed lightly, deciding not to dwell further on the Coagulation Crystal Elixir.
He planned to just store it in the System Space.
He would take it out when the time came to use it.
“Continue with the draw!”
Lu Changsheng looked at the system spinning wheel in front of him and proceeded with the draw.
This was his first time doing consecutive draws.
Having just drawn a Coagulation Crystal Elixir, his heart was filled with the expectation of drawing something that he could actually use.
Even though Coagulation Crystal Elixirs were precious, at his current stage, they were not immediately usable and would just collect dust.
As the draw continued, the golden light on the spinning wheel moved, eventually stopping at the ‘Pets’ category.
