Building a long-lasting family lineage starting with genealogy

Chapter 74 A Leisurely Half-Life on the Path of Immortality (Important Reading)

The border of the Great Wei Dynasty.

Dingzi Camp.

"Captain Xu, there is a letter from home and some items you sent."

"Thank you."

After returning to his tent, Xu Mingxuan first opened the letter from home, read it for a while, and smiled.

"I didn't expect Xueji and Yunnu to have both succeeded. It's a pity I haven't been able to return yet."

Then, he found four black porcelain bottles hidden in the bundle, opened one of them, and poured a pill into his palm.

"With a gentle sniff, it is indeed a Qi-Inducing Pill, and it seems to be of very high quality."

Xu Mingxuan had once received a Qi-inducing pill as a reward from Ge Xuanhong, which is why he was so certain of it.

"Ten pills in one bottle, four bottles in total, does this mean we've struck it rich?"

"What happened during the years I was gone?"

"Forget it, why think so much? I guess Second Brother has found some way to make money again, which has caused the family's wealth to increase dramatically, and he has also gotten involved in the Qi-Inducing Pill business."

"Let me break through to the Innate Realm first, and then give the rest to Li Zhi and the others."

Xu Mingxuan felt no burden.

What one has worked hard for should naturally be used by one's own family first, and any surplus should be used to help others.

It would be foolish to give up one's own chance to break through to the Innate Realm and instead help others.

"However, only Li Zhi has reached the peak of the Acquired Realm. Brother Da Niu and Cousin Bai Hui are only second-rate martial artists. I hope that after they return home, they can receive special training so that they may be able to reach the peak of the Acquired Realm."

Xu Mingxuan packed his things and then went out to inspect the mining area.

After becoming Ge Xuanhong's personal guard, he felt much more relaxed and no longer had to work long hours like the other mining soldiers.

Regular inspections are sufficient.

This gave him more time to cultivate.

In the past six months or so, several more pieces of black iron ore have been discovered in other mining areas.

Xu Mingxuan had a premonition that the day to go home was approaching.

----------

Stars shift and constellations change; spring comes and autumn goes.

Dongxi Village, Bihan Pool.

While meditating, Xu Chuan suddenly felt a strange change in his body, which seemed to guide his mind, making him feel light and ethereal, as if he had suddenly attained enlightenment.

is the day.

Xu Chuan sat alone in the green hut when he suddenly felt the five elements surging within his body, and a warm current rushed from his coccyx to his Baihui point.

In an instant.

My mind suddenly became clear, as if guided by the heavens, and I felt as if I were floating in the vast emptiness, experiencing unparalleled mystery.

"The spiritual root has been purified!"

Xu Chuan opened his eyes, his eyes filled with ecstatic joy.

Taking advantage of this mysterious aura, Xu Chuan immediately instructed Xu Mingxian that he was going into seclusion and that Xu Mingxian should guard the entrance, forbidding anyone from entering to disturb him.

"Father, are you going to pursue immortality?"

Xu Chuan nodded slightly and reminded him again, "Remember not to let anyone disturb you."

“Yun Nu understands.”

Xu Chuan immediately activated the secret technique of the "Innate Five Elements Creation Technique" to transform his innate true energy into magical power.

When Xu Mingshu, Xu Mingwei, and Xu Mingyuan found out, they all took it very seriously and wanted to protect Xu Chuan.

But Xu Mingxian refused.

"Eldest brother and second brother, you bear the heavy responsibility of the family. Yunnu can guard this place. As for fourth sister, please teach Zhao'er during this period."

"Very well, Yun Nu is quite strong now, having reached the mid-stage of the Innate Realm, and this is our Xu family's territory, so there's no need to worry too much."

As Xu Mingwei said this, he and Xu Mingyuan soon descended the mountain.

Five days later.

Xu Chuan transformed all his true energy into magical power, becoming a cultivator at the peak of the fifth level of Qi Refining.

This process is irreversible.

Xu Chuan will only be able to pursue the path of immortal cultivation in the future.

However, there are also Qi Refining cultivators and Body Refining cultivators in the cultivation world. If one has the opportunity to obtain a Body Refining technique, it is not impossible to cultivate both the technique and the body simultaneously.

"Having lived half a lifetime, I have finally embarked on the path of Qi cultivation!"

Xu Chuan opened the door of the bamboo house, and Xu Mingxian, hearing the noise, immediately looked over with excitement.

"Father, you've emerged from seclusion."

"Thank you for protecting me these past few days, Yunnu."

"This is what Yunnu should do."

"Father!"

Not far away, Xu Mingshu also came to Xu Chuan in a few steps, carrying the pitiful Xu Dezhao in her hand.

"Grandpa." Xu Dezhao bowed politely.

Xu Chuan picked him up and said with a smile, "Let's go down the mountain, don't let the others worry." After embarking on the path of Qi cultivation, Xu Chuan could cultivate immortality techniques and practice the spells in the "Eternal Spring Technique".

With the two innate talents of "Heaven rewards diligence" and "Shennong's Herbalism", Xu Chuan's cultivation speed in the "Eternal Spring Technique" is estimated to be close to that of a cultivator with the talent of Earth Spirit Root.

In addition, Xu Chuan considered whether to add another talent, [Nine Palaces Dao Evolution], to his family.

But I also feel that he is now focused on alchemy and may not be able to be distracted.

"Shitou, Ayuan, Tantou, Xueji, Yunnu, only Yunnu is suitable for the path of formations."

After all, it will be more than 20 years before the next generation grows up.

The Xu family's time is precious and cannot be wasted.

night.

A gentle autumn breeze blows, and the moonlight is as clear as water.

Xu family banquet.

Three generations gathered together for a meal around a round table.

Xu Mingwei and Xu Mingyuan are both married, and even when they are both in their own courtyard, they eat in their own yard.

Xu Mingshu and the others all relieved themselves by the Bihan Pool.

It's become extremely rare for the whole family to eat together like this.

"It's rare to have everyone here. Shi Tou, you're the head of the family, so say a few words," Xu Chuan said with a faint smile.

Xu Mingwei stood up, picked up his wine glass, and said, "Father has made a breakthrough this time, which is why we have the rare opportunity to get together. Let's all toast Father together."

"Respect to Father (Grandpa)!"

Apart from Bai Jing, the younger generation all stood up to offer a toast, while Xu Dezhao and Xu Dejing drank fruit drinks.

Seeing this, Bai Jing lowered her head and wiped away her tears.

"Auntie, why are you crying?" Xu Dezhao sat down next to Bai Jing and asked with concern, "Did someone bully you? Zhao'er is already a martial artist, and will soon become a third-rate martial artist. He can help you teach him a lesson."

Bai Jing smiled and lovingly patted his head, "Grandma is crying tears of joy."

"Zhao'er, have you ever heard of tears of joy?" Xu Mingshu asked with a smile.

"I have heard of it," Xu Dezhao replied.

Xu Mingshu added, "Brother, Mother, Zhao'er is indeed a genius, more outstanding than all of us. She will become a third-rate martial artist in less than half a year."

Wu Rushan looked at Xu Dezhao in surprise, "With Zhao'er's talent, he will probably be able to break through to the Innate Realm before he is sixteen. I have heard that even in the county town, he is one of the most talented people."

Xu Mingwei laughed and said, "If you keep praising him, this kid will get all cocky."

"He truly is my eldest grandson," Bai Jing praised with a smile, then looked at Xu Mingwei and said, "What, can't I even say a word of praise to him?"

"Mother is joking."

"Hahaha~"

The crowd burst into laughter.

Seeing Xu Dezhao being praised, Xu Dejing became a little jealous and clamored, "Mother, Jing'er also wants to learn martial arts so that she can protect you."

"Yes, Jing'er is a good child too."

After being praised, Xu Dejing continued to work contentedly on the tiger-skin chicken feet in his hands.

Xu Mingyuan affectionately patted Xu Dejing's head, "Jing'er is just like her mother."

Bai Jing nodded and said, "A Yuan, your eldest brother's third child is about to be born. You and Shan'er only have Jing'er, which is still a bit too few."

We still need to work harder.

“Mother, everyone is here, why are you saying these things?”

Xu Mingyuan was slightly embarrassed, and Wu Rushan's ears were also slightly red.

I used to be pressured to get married, now I'm pressured to have children. Why is everyone pressuring me for everything?

He felt somewhat depressed.

“Mother, Xueji is not young anymore. My sister-in-law and Shan’er were also this age when they got married. You should hurry up and find her a good family.”

"Second brother, that's not fair of you! How can you so easily bring the flames of war to my territory!"

"Hahaha~"

Everyone else immediately burst into laughter.

"Besides, I'm so outstanding, how could anyone in Qingjiang be worthy of me? So I can only stay with my father and mother until they grow old."

"Don't talk nonsense. How can a woman not get married? Your mother still wants to hold her grandson."

"Let Xueji decide for herself. We'll talk about it when she meets someone she likes. But there's only one condition: the other person can only marry into her family," Xu Chuan suddenly said.

“Husband, isn’t that a bit too harsh? Which of those noble young men would be willing to marry into a wealthy family?”

"I have my own ideas, and this is the decision."

"Second brother, you see I have no chance, so you and your wife should try harder."

Xu Mingshu said with a teasing smile.

"You little rascal, you've been spoiled rotten by your father!"

"Hahaha~"
