The Longevity Family: Starting From The Branches And Leaves

Chapter 310: Changes in the Four Seasons Thunder Sword Pill and the Child

"Wow!"

As soon as Chen Ling entered the room, he heard a clear cry that lifted his spirits.

He Yunxiu was holding a baby, while Chu Yu, Fang Ying, and others were busy nearby.

"Husband, it's a boy, just like you, full of energy!"

He Yunxiu joyfully handed the baby to Chen Ling.

She had been hoping to conceive again for years, but had not been successful. It was impossible for her not to feel disappointed. Moreover, with her cultivation now at the peak of Foundation Building and Chen Ling at the Gold Core stage, the chances of conceiving again were getting lower and lower.

However, she was already satisfied with having a son and a daughter. Especially since Ping An and Sheng Xia both had their own strengths. Ping An may have a lower cultivation level, but he had a stable personality and managed the family affairs well. Sheng Xia, on the other hand, was a natural talent in cultivation, already at the Qi Refining stage and ready to enter Foundation Building. She also inherited Chen Ling's talents in refining tools, alchemy, and runes, showing remarkable performance in those areas. For her, this was already enough satisfaction.

Of course, if she could conceive again, that would be even better! She was also genuinely happy for the other concubines who had given birth to children. Most of the time, she took care of the children at home.

Chen Ling carefully took the baby from the swaddling clothes and smiled at Gong Mulan, who was lying on the bed. "You've worked hard, Lan'er!"

As if sensing Chen Ling's presence, the baby's face became calm. He waved his little hands and made babbling sounds.

"This little guy is quite strong!"

Chen Ling chuckled.

Gong Mulan's face was rosy, full of tenderness, and showed no signs of weakness after giving birth.

As soon as she finished speaking, she reached out her hand to signal Chen Ling to give her the baby.

Chen Ling approached the bed and handed the baby to Gong Mulan.

Gong Mulan held the baby in her arms and looked at him with affection.

Seeing Gong Mulan's unfamiliar movements while holding the baby, Chen Ling expressed concern. "Lan'er, take a rest first!"

Originally, he had only saved the Saintess by chance, with the sole purpose of saving a life being more important than anything else. He had no other thoughts. It was only because he had no choice that he made the contract with her. After entering the Chen family, he became even more cautious. After all, her identity was that of a Rank Six tribe Saintess from the wilderness. If not handled properly, it could bring great trouble. On the other hand, Gong Mulan also possessed the bloodline of the Immortal Clan. If he could activate this bloodline, it would be of great benefit to him. Perhaps he had some subconscious ulterior motives.

"Husband, the ancient fire tribe bloodline in the child is even stronger than mine."

Gong Mulan smiled and whispered to Chen Ling as she looked at the baby.

"Of course, he is my child!"

Chen Ling smiled.

However, his heart trembled slightly. Lan'er possessed the bloodline of the Immortal Clan. He wondered if the child would also have the bloodline of the Immortal Clan in the future. Who knows, the Chen family might produce an immortal!

"Husband, children with our ancient fire tribe bloodline must return to the tribe within a month and use the blood of the tribe's sacred beast to further activate their ancestral bloodline."

"The grade of the ancient fire tribe bloodline in this child's body is completely above mine. If it is further activated, it may be able to improve by another grade."

Gong Mulan looked at her son, whose eyes were already open, and said softly.

Chen Ling was slightly stunned by her words. Although Xingque Tribe was also a wilderness tribe, why hadn't she mentioned this ancestral bloodline matter before? Could it be because of the difference in bloodline grade? But Xingque's bloodline seemed not to be low either.

Perhaps it is related to the bloodline of the tribal sacred beast?

He also understands in his heart that Gong Mulan is eager to return to the tribe.

But now, with the child just born, how can he feel at ease?

After a moment of contemplation, Chen Ling held Gong Mulan's hand and whispered, "Lan'er, will the child be able to adapt to the ancient jungle at such a young age?"

Although having wives and concubines give birth to children conforms to the Great Dao of the system.

But now, his wives and children are his main motivation for striving.

Protecting his wife and children is also his mission.

Besides, as long as the child grows up and has a golden incense value.

It is not impossible for the bloodline to improve, there is no need to suffer now that the child has just been born, and who knows, there may be risks.

Especially now that he doesn't know much about the situation in the ancient tribe.

It is not enough to ensure the safety of the child and his wife.

"Husband, rest assured, with the current bloodline and physique of the child, in less than half a month, they will surpass children who are seven or eight years old."

Gong Mulan said confidently.

"Lan'er, isn't this too hasty?"

He Yunxiu also frowned and advised.

"Sister Yun, don't worry, nothing will happen."

"After being away from home for so many years, I also want to go back and see my parents and grandfather."

"See what the situation is in the tribe now?"

"Husband, what should we name the child?"

Gong Mulan smiled.

"Let's call him Xinghuo!"

Chen Ling saw Gong Mulan's eagerness to return to the tribe, so he didn't say much.

After a moment of contemplation, he gave the baby a name.

At that time, he can only accompany Gong Mulan to the ancient tribe.

"Xinghuo!"

Gong Mulan heard the name and murmured, then gently said to the child, "Xinghuo! Your father has given you a name!"

The baby in her arms waved and danced, as if expressing joy.

With the sound of the child, He Yunxiu and the others also approached.

Playing with the child.

...

Ten days later.

The Chen family welcomed another great joy, Sheng Xia successfully achieved Foundation Building.

Not yet fourteen years old, successfully achieving Foundation Building, this talent is no less than the genius disciples of the Soul Formation sect.

But in Chen Ling's eyes, this is nothing out of the ordinary.

After all, Sheng Xia was born with a fire spirit body.

Coupled with the abundant fire attribute spiritual power of Yudie City and the high-level cultivation of the Nine Revolutions Spirit Flame Art.

It can be said that all the conditions are met.

Chen Ling remained as low-key as ever, just celebrating simply at home and giving Sheng Xia a Rank Three Dao robe as a reward.

And promised the children that whoever improves their cultivation will receive corresponding rewards.

As long as they successfully achieve Foundation Building, they will receive a Rank Three treasure as a reward.

There is also a feeling of being in a different world.

I didn't expect that in just over ten years, I not only gave birth to twenty-seven children, but also had a child successfully achieve Foundation Building.

Truly blessed with many children!

During this time, he paid more attention to the children's cultivation.

Fortunately, with the guidance of He Yunxiu and the exemplary power of Ping An, Sheng Xia, and Xing Tong.

Even if the children are playful, they will still complete their cultivation tasks.

Moreover, among the wives and concubines at home, each has their own strengths in refining tools, alchemy, formations, and runes.

Teaching the children is also effortless.

And with Sheng Xia's successful Foundation Building, the system panel also appeared.

[Reminder: If the family's daily incense value exceeds 100, it will receive a weekend blessing, and the weekend bonus will increase by 5%. Reward: Rank Five High Grade Four Seasons Thunder Sword Pill.]

[Four Seasons Thunder Sword Pill: Rank Five sword pill, containing the Sword Intent of the four seasons thunder, the spring thunder awakens, surging with vitality, the summer thunder is intense, the autumn thunder is continuous and unending, the winter thunder is hidden, unstoppable momentum, naturally accompanied by thunder attribute, with tremendous killing power.]

"The daily incense value has exceeded 100!"

"And it rewarded a Rank Five Sword Pill!"

Upon seeing this reward, Chen Ling felt delighted and raised an eyebrow.

The Sword Pill was a rare treasure that was hard to come by.

After all, he had already obtained a Qianlei Sword Pill before.

When used in conjunction with the Thunder Origin, it was a powerful life-saving card for him.

Now, another Rank Five, Thunder attribute Sword Pill had arrived.

Clearly, it came at just the right time.

It would allow his combat power to increase to a new level.

Chen Ling's gaze swept over and focused on the black Sword Pill that suddenly appeared in his hand.

As spiritual energy slowly flowed into the Sword Pill, countless faint sword qi emerged and instantly surged into Chen Ling's body.

A thought appeared in his sea of consciousness.

In his sea of consciousness, Formless Sword Intents appeared one after another, rumbling like spring thunder and fierce summer thunderstorms.

Amidst the lightning and thunder, a majestic Sword Intent shone.

In an instant, he gained a deep understanding of the Sword Intent of the Four Seasons Falling Sword Pill.

It was like an expansion on the foundation of the Qianyuan Sword Pill.

It could be said that he directly comprehended the realm of the Divine Ability of the Three Realms Sword.

Chen Ling felt fortunate, and as his thoughts flowed, the Four Seasons Falling Thunder Sword Pill moved naturally.

In the blink of an eye, the entire cultivation room was filled with roaring thunder.

Sword qi crisscrossed, and thunder flickered, carrying a majestic vitality.

It was like a spring rain falling.

The entire cultivation room was enveloped in a misty drizzle.

Chen Ling felt that as long as he infused spiritual energy into the Sword Pill, the hazy sword rain in front of him would instantly erupt with terrifying killing power.

In the misty spring rain, accompanied by flashing lightning, it seemed like a continuous drizzle in early spring.

"If I use the Thunder Origin to stimulate this Sword Pill, how powerful will it be?"

Chen Ling pondered for a moment and quietly infused a trace of Thunder Origin into the Sword Pill.

Suddenly, spring rain fell, making him feel a cool breath.

Amidst the flashing thunder, he felt as if he was in the early spring, on a hazy mountain path, with a natural charm of heaven and earth.

There was no sharp and oppressive sword qi at all.

Instead, there was a moist spring atmosphere.

"Heaven and Earth Sword Intent!"

Chen Ling couldn't help but exclaim.

With Du Qingyun's understanding of the sword dao, he naturally knew that this was the Heaven and Earth Sword Intent.

It truly placed one in a certain state of mind.

Hastily, he moved his thoughts and withdrew the power of the Thunder Origin.

In this situation, he could roughly estimate the power of using the Thunder Origin to stimulate the Four Seasons Falling Thunder Sword Pill.

It might surpass the Divine Ability of the sword and barely touch the threshold of the Heaven and Earth Sword.

However, for him, this was already enough.

As long as he used the Thunder Origin to stimulate it, the power should be enough to deal with early-stage Soul Formation cultivators.

Of course, with the limited power of the Thunder Origin in his body, he could only stimulate it once.

After roughly assessing the effect of the Four Seasons Falling Thunder Sword Pill, Chen Ling's eyes revealed a pleasant surprise.

This effect completely exceeded his expectations.

Finally, he had a means to contend against Soul Formation cultivators.

If all the Thunder Origin in his body was infused into the Sword Pill, it would be a sword of heaven and earth.

Now, the most powerful attack in his hands was to use the Qianhuo Thunder Sword Pill with the Cold Spirit Crystal Flame and the Five Extremes Thunder Flame to stimulate the Five Elements Thunder Formation.

But neither of these possessed the power of the Thunder Origin.

It was difficult to withstand the attacks of Soul Formation cultivators.

Chen Ling was extremely satisfied with this Four Seasons Falling Thunder Sword Pill.

...

Three days later.

"Lan'er's preparations are almost complete. We will soon head to the Ancient Wilderness Tribe."

Considering his upcoming trip to the ancient tribe, Chen Ling didn't know how long he would stay there, so he decided to arrange the family affairs first.

Of course, in the family, the current arrangement was that Wang Xi handled external matters while Xie Man'er handled internal matters.

There was really nothing for him to worry about.

Moreover, with Zhao Chanzhen and Zhou Hongshang, the two clan leaders of the Soul Formation families, he felt even more at ease.

The main concern was still the children.

He planned to let Ping'an go to the new city first to gain some experience.

It wasn't good for him to always stay in Yudie City.

Now that Shen Ru, his father-in-law, was in charge of the new city, there shouldn't be any major safety issues.

"An'er, in a few days, you will go to the new city to assist Grandfather Shen. As for what you need to do, just follow Grandfather Shen's arrangements."

"In this storage bag, there is a Rank Two Supreme Grade puppet. If you encounter any danger, you can activate it."

"There are also three disposable Rank Three Heavenly Fire Thunder."

"For anything else you need, you can use your contribution points to exchange at the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall."

In the main hall of the Chen family, Chen Ling handed a storage bag to Chen Ping'an and said.

After several years of development, the population of the new city had exceeded 300,000.

However, there were also many independent cultivators from outside who came to the Yunmeng Marsh.

So he still needed to give him some life-saving means.

After all, Ping'an was only at the eighth level of Qi Refining.

And he no longer needed the Shadow Puppet.

Although it was a Rank Two Supreme Grade, its ability to lurk could even kill a Gold Core cultivator by surprise.

In addition, there were three Rank Three Heavenly Fire Thunder and a Rank Three robe, which should be enough to ensure safety.

"Thank you, Father!"

Chen Ping'an received the storage bag and bowed.

His actions were steady.

In recent years, under the leadership of Shen Zhen and others, he had been involved in the affairs of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall and the family's transactions with some nearby sects.

Coupled with his solid character, diligence, and responsibility, he had made rapid progress.

"Father, be careful when you go to the Savage Jungle this time!"

He also learned from his mother that his father would be going to the Savage Jungle in a few days, so he reminded him.

In his memory, his father rarely went out.

Chen Ling nodded and patted his shoulder, smiling, "You don't need to worry about Father's affairs. The situation in the new city may be different from Yudie City, so you still need to learn and practice more!"

Only through going out to gain experience could the children's sense of belonging to the family be enhanced and they could earn golden incense value.

Especially for Ping'an, among the children, he had the worst aptitude.

Chen Ling was very satisfied with Ping'an's character.

As the eldest son of the family, he didn't have the slightest arrogance.

He had the simplicity and solidity of He Yunxiu, as well as his own caution and meticulousness.

He reminded and instructed him a few more times.

Then, Qingtang brought news and Ping'an left.

And this news was about the Chiyang Tribe.

A month ago, Chi Yang and several other Rank Four barbarians were injured at the same time.

After returning to the tribe, they used the blood of the sacred beasts to heal in seclusion.

Looking at the news, Chen Ling rubbed his forehead and speculated that this was probably related to the Ruins Secret Realm.

He just didn't know if she had successfully obtained the Transcending Tribulation Blood God Lotus.

Chen Ling thought to himself.

But from the news, it seemed that they were not successful.

"Forget about this for now. I'm going to the ancient tribe the day after tomorrow. Before leaving, I should spend some quality time with my wife."

"Let's go find Shang'er!"

Chen Ling immediately got up and left the hall.

Among the women, Zhou Hongshang had the highest cultivation level, and coupled with her Dragon Phoenix Origin Body and her compatibility with his Yin Yang Spirit Flame, her cultivation progress was the highest.

Of course, what he valued most was the dream realm.

If he could enter the dream realm, it would be equivalent to a hundred years of cultivation.
