Chapter 270

270 The inheritance

The Lu family had changed a lot in the past ten years.

Among the Lu clan’s high-level cultivators, Lu chaoxi had already become a ninth-level initial enlightenment cultivator due to the existence of the spirit-gathering holy temple.

This cultivation speed was extremely shocking to the outside world. In a mere ten years ‘time, he advanced from the fourth level of initial enlightenment to the ninth level. This was also a little too exaggerated! Even Foundation establishment cultivators didn’t have such a fast cultivation speed, let alone Qiming!

Of course, in reality, to Lu chaoxi himself, the past ten years, including the three times he had entered spirit gathering holy temple, was equivalent to forty years.

An initial enlightenment cultivator’s cultivation had increased by five levels in forty years. Although it seemed very fast, it was still acceptable.

After all, the rare spiritual root that Lu Qing had obtained in the northern wilderness forest had raised Lu chaoxi’s talent to the level of a single lightning spiritual root. A cultivator with a single spiritual root, under the circumstances where all kinds of cultivation resources were relatively sufficient, could achieve the speed of one level in eight years.

Furthermore, to be more precise, Lu chaoxi had only used 35 years to reach the ninth level of the initial enlightenment stage. In the past five years, he had been polishing his own cultivation in preparation for breaking through to the Aurous core stage.

The environment in which he broke through to the Golden core realm was very good.

The demonic cores of the two peak-stage demon kings that Lu Qing killed in the battle outside the mo Yue cave were in the hands of the Lu clan.

After the demonic core of an Ordinary Level-four Demon King was refined into an external core, the probability of a cultivator breaking through to the Golden core realm would be greatly increased, let alone the demonic core of a peak-level Demon King.

In reality, Lu Qing no longer had any doubts about whether his son could reach the Golden core stage. The only thing worth thinking about was whether he could use this opportunity to awaken his divine power when he broke through to the Golden core realm with the help of the demonic core of a peak-stage demonic King.

If Lu chaoxi could really awaken a divine power, that would be amazing.

His rate of improvement was the fastest among Lu Qing’s three children who had reached the initial enlightenment stage.

Mingchao followed closely behind, but because her tolerance to the passage of time was not as good as her brother’s, she only entered the spirit gathering holy temple twice. It had been 30 years. And now, she was a seventh-level initial enlightenment cultivator, which could be considered to have entered the late-stage initial enlightenment.

Like mingchao, Chaohe could only enter once every four years. After thirty years, Chaohe had become a cultivator at the sixth level of the initial enlightenment stage and was not far from the late stage.

From the looks of it, the three of them all had the opportunity to advance to the Golden core stage.

After all, Lu Qing had a total of two demonic cores. Chaoxi used one, and mingchao used the other one. As for Chao and Suan ni, they had no choice. Lu Qing was one step behind mingchao and had no choice but to use them. However, other than the demonic core of a demonic King, Lu Qing also had a peak level three demonic core. He had obtained it after he killed the second son of the Ying family in the Eagle Valley. If it really didn’t work, he could only use this one to make up the numbers.

A peak level three demonic core was the minimum standard to refine an external elixir. If the quality was slightly worse, it could not be used as an external elixir. Moreover, an external elixir refined from a level three peak demonic core could only be regarded as a relatively good auxiliary item for breakthrough at most. It could not play a decisive role like a real golden core or a level four demonic core, and the failure rate was not small.

However, Chao He had already developed divine powers and had an Earth Spirit body, so he had a deeper understanding of the power of the earth attribute. This was where his brother and sister were inferior to him. This was also where his advantage lay.

However, no matter what, the three golden core cultivators in the family had already shown their great power.

If the Lu family was given another 10 years and the situation continued to develop like this, no one in the Feiyun state would be able to stop them from cultivating the five golden elixir.

Lu Qing was looking forward to that day. At that time, five golden core cultivators would be able to suppress the entire state. The Lu family would be able to control the entire Feiyun state with ease.

In the beginning, the 5-star family’s requirement of ‘controlling the entire state’ seemed to be quite difficult, but it was now a matter of time.

......

However, there were also sad things for the Lu family.

Three important people had died in the past ten years.

Lu chaoling, Lu chaojun, and Nian Kejun.

The three of them had all died from the exhaustion of their lifespans.

Of course, the three of them had cultivated the wondrous longevity Scripture that the Lu family had previously obtained. If Lu chaoling had not cultivated the longevity Scripture, he would have died of old age before the battle in the North barren forest.

However, the ‘Scripture of longevity’ was not really about longevity. At least, the first two Scriptures that the Lu family had were far from being longevity. The first level of the longevity Scripture could only increase one’s lifespan by 15 years. The three of them had successfully cultivated it, but the difficulty of cultivating the second level was much higher than the first level. The sudden increase in the difficulty of cultivation had stumped the three of them.

They failed to complete the second part of the longevity Scripture and died one after another when they were about 135 years old.

The entire clan was in grief.

Nian Kejun’s death was still acceptable. When he died, the Jin dynasty suffered the most.

The Jin dynasty had never expected this day to come so soon. Even though she had expected that Nian Kejun, who had yet to reach the foundation building realm, would leave her first after she became a foundation building cultivator, it shouldn’t be now.

After all, from what she remembered, Nian Kejun had taken the celestial medicine with her and little Weiwen back then, and he could have looked younger by a few decades. In addition, other than her own cultivation and taking on some tasks arranged by her family, the most important thing she cared about was to urge her husband to cultivate the second volume of the longevity Scripture.

Logically speaking, regardless of whether Nian Kejun had cultivated the second part of the longevity Scripture or not, he should have been able to accompany her for at least another thirty years.

However, time was merciless.

Before he died, Nian Kejun finally told his wife the secret that had been buried in his heart for more than 20 to 30 years. He did not take the divine medicine back then. There were only two divine medicine. The one he took was just an ordinary essence replenishment pill. He had only used a smokescreen to deceive Lu Jinchao.

“This is the biggest lie I’ve ever told you in my life, and also the last lie, Yingluo.”

you still have a long way to go. You might have a chance to break through to initial enlightenment.

“You have to live well. This is my last wish.”

“Forgive me, promise me, Yingluo.”

In Lu Jinchao’s grief, in the tearful eyes of his son Lu tingyuan and grandson Lu mingling, Nian Kejun passed away.

Lu tingyuan sighed. He helped his mother, who had almost passed out, up and comforted her softly.

Even though his parents had left the clan when they were still young and had gone out adventuring, the number of times they had come back to visit him in the past few decades could be counted on one hand. This had also caused him and the descendants of his bloodline to have some resentment towards these two ancestors. However, they were his biological parents after all, and they were his closest and most direct bloodline. After being in contact with them again for more than 20 years, the resentment between them had not completely dissipated, but at least it had mostly dissipated.

After all, the person who died here was his biological father.

He looked at his mother’s youthful face and then turned to look at his son, Lu mingling. He suddenly sighed in his heart.

mother and Ming Ling are both foundation building cultivators. Their lifespans are longer than mine. I haven’t reached the foundation building stage yet. Perhaps in a few years, this scene will also happen to me. I will be like my father, dying old and weak. I will die.

but at least I raised an outstanding son.

“Ming Ling, good luck!”

These unspoken words might never be said. However, at least Lu tingyuan knew that when he died in the future, he would probably die without any regrets like his father.

He had experienced the clan’s most difficult and difficult times, and he had also experienced the entire process of the clan’s rise. When he couldn’t reach the foundation building realm after the age of 60, he felt despair. When he saw his son become a foundation building cultivator, he was also happy for the future.

The so-called inheritance seemed to be like this.

...

There were no more regrets.

He only hoped that the Lu family would be prosperous forever.

......

Nian Kejun’s death was agonizing for some people, but objectively speaking, his death didn’t have a huge impact on the family.

After all, he had not been in the clan for many years and was not an advanced cultivator. He had not taken on any important positions in the clan and made any particularly important contributions.

However, the death of Lu chaojun and Lu chaoling had a much greater impact.

The two of them were the ancestors of many people in the clan. In addition, one of them had always been the most important armament master in the family, and one of them had once held the position of General Affairs elder for a long time.

Moreover, when the clan was at its most critical time, the two of them were elders at the ninth level of the Qi refining stage. They were once the pillars of the clan and had great influence in the clan.

Their deaths would naturally cause the entire clan to grieve.

This was especially true for Lu Qing.

When Lu chaoheng had passed away, he had already experienced the feeling of helplessly witnessing his son’s death. In the end, he had experienced it twice in a short ten years.

...

To be honest, even though he was mentally prepared, Lu Qing still found it hard to accept when this happened.

He also swore in his heart, ”

“I won’t do it again!”

Of course, Lu Qing was referring to his sons and daughters. His grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and future generations urged Lu Qing to leave. He had no choice.

Of course, Lu Qing did not wish to see any of the younger generation die. However, even though Youyou had the system, he was powerless and could not do anything.

However, it was not impossible if it was only limited to his own son and daughter.

He still had four biological children in the world.

The eldest was Lu chaoxi, the sixth was Lu Jinchao, the seventh was Lu Chaohe, and the youngest was Lu mingchao.

As long as Lu Qing could ensure that the cultivation of the four of them would continue to increase, the time they had to witness their son’s death could be extended indefinitely.

As for abnormal deaths, Lu Qing would definitely not allow that to happen!
