Longevity starts from having a daughter in old age

Chapter 43: Chapter 33 Qi Cultivation Level 61

Translator: 549690339

“Among the seven major families, the original manager of White Stone City, the Song Family, is the strongest, with one in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, two in the early stage, practicing Yangxin Jue and Burn Destroy Sword Jue…”

“Next is the Lv family, relocated from Yingshuang Market, with one in the middle of Foundation Establishment, one in the early stage, practicing Seven Symbol Treasure Jue and Silver Frost Sword Jue…”

“Ranked fifth is the Luo Family, relocated from Xuanshui City, with one in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, practicing Lu Ling Jue. They have the ability to summon spirits and invert Yin and Yang.”

“The swordsmanship they cultivate is the Qingjiao Sword Jue, born from the Tianhe Main Ancestor’s Great Azure Dragon Jue, which is widely circulated in the area of Tianhe Sect. Fully practiced, it can transform Sword Qi into a dragon, possessing the ability to overthrow rivers and overturn seas…”

“The family’s ancestor Luo Lie, 231 years old, at the fifth level of Foundation Establishment, has attained proficiency in the twelve forms of Qingjiao Sword Jue…”

“Family head Luo Hun, 97 years old, Qi Cultivation ninth level…”

Luo Hun’s sixth son Luo Xu, 35 years old, Qi Cultivation eighth level… was murdered while serving as the leader of the Patrol Team!”

“I actually killed the son of the Family head of the Luo Family!!”

“Not even forty and already cultivating Qi at the eighth level. If he gets a Foundation Establishment Pill in the future, he has at least a seventy percent chance of breaking through to Foundation Establishment!”

“No wonder! No wonder they are so relentless!”

Upon seeing the information about Luo Xu’s identity, Xu Mu finally understood.

Luo Xu was the Luo Family’s future. By killing him, Xu Mu had touched the Luo Family’s untouchable scale. It’s already considered extremely restrained for the Luo Family not to turn the entire city upside down.

Of course, it’s more likely that other families didn’t allow them to do this.

Otherwise, the Luo Family might really dig three feet into the ground.

“I must be careful in the future and must not reveal any information related to that night!”

Xu Mu reminded himself quietly.

“It’s a pity that 1 probably won’t be able to use my Red Gold Sword anymore after this!”

Xu Mu sighed miserably.

Even the Thunderbolt Sword Skill, he would have to be careful in using. Should he need to use it, he must eliminate all witnesses.

And the Fire-controlling Skill!

“Damn it!

Xu Mu simply wanted to curse.

You’re a good family disciple, why would you head to become a leader of a patrol team, were you brain-dead!

He can’t use this, he can’t use that, his strength has been effectively halved.

“Fortunately, the elder from Luo Family is near his end. As long as Elder Luo dies and the Luo Family doesn’t spawn a new Foundation Establishment cultivator, I’ll be safe!”

Xu Mu felt that as long as it wasn’t a Foundation Establishment cultivator, while he couldn’t fight, he could still escape.

“Speaking of escaping, shouldn’t I consider improving my Light Body Skill, or perhaps learning the Wind Control Skill?”

The Wind Control Skill is similar to the Fire-controlling Skill; one controls wind, the other controls fire.

One of Wind Control Skill’s abilities is to control the wind to make one’s body fly.

Apart from the Wind Control Skill, cultivators at the Qi Cultivation stage have the Flying Escape Skill and Yuan Magnetic Slide Escape Skill to allow airborne maneuvers, but both these skills are tier three, they are incredibly difficult to cultivate. Even if Xu Mu managed to learn them, he wouldn’t have any Luck Value to level them up.

After thinking it through, it was better to forget it. Forget about the Flying Escape Skill and Yuan Magnetic Slide Escape Skill, even the Wind Control Skill, He can’t afford to use his Luck Value.

1 might as well focus on enhancing the Light Body Skill!

With his current physical condition, it should be sufficient to bear the burden of a Grandmaster level Light Body Skill.

His current Light Body Skill is at the Master level, which can increase his speed four-fold. If he were to break through to Grandmaster-level, according to his calculations, he should be able to reach eight times speed, and if he somehow transcended, sixteen times!

While the prospect sounds alluring, it’s effectively useless for regular cultivators.

Because their physical bodies cannot withstand it!

But for Xu Mu, who can continuously enhance his physical strength through the cultivation of Thunderbolt Sword Skill, it’s a godsend!

If he had a body capable of withstanding sixteen times speed, killing a Foundation Establishment cultivator would be as easy as turning his hand.

The only downside of the Light Body Skill is that it can only function on the ground, so its scope of use is quite limited.

But for Xu Mu at the moment, the Light Body Skill is indeed the most economical direction for improvement. It can not only enhance his strength, but also his survivability.

“I need to take some time to practice the Light Body Skill recently! Saving Luck Value where I can!”

Xu Mu thought to himself.

Apart from the rather disheartening information, there was also a tiny surprise.

Which is, the Qingjiao Sword Jue is not exclusive to the Luo Family, so he can practice it without causing too much trouble.

“When I have some time, I’ll go to the bookstore to see if it’s available. If so, I might try practicing it!”

He later finished flipping through the book containing information on the families, put it away, and pulled out a thin piece of paper. It recorded the recent battles between the Clear River Sword Sect and the Soul Forging Sect.

In comparison to the family information, this is much simpler.

“February 17th, the Foundation Establishment Cultivator of Clear River Sword Sect, Yu Chenglong, killed a Foundation Establishment Elder and nineteen Qi Cultivation disciples of the Soul Forging Sect at Double Dragon River!”

“March 2nd, ambushed the Soul Forging Sect’s base in Dongsheng City, killed hundreds of Demonic Dao Loose Cultivators, and recaptured Xingzhi Market!”

“March 28th, shot down a transport Flying Boat of the Soul Forging Sect, captured dozens of disciples of the Soul Forging Sect, and hundreds of Demonic Dao Loose Cultivators!”

“On the first of April, Elder Qi Tao of the Clear River Sword Sect was ambushed by the Soul Forging Sect, being gravely injured!”

“On the eighteenth of April, the Clear River Sword Sect recaptured seven Marketplaces, and the Soul Forging Sect began their large-scale retreat!”

The intelligence implied that the Clear River Sword Sect held a significant advantage, winning consecutive battles with minimal losses, even those few were negligible.

It seems that the war would be ending soon!”

Tidying up the paper, Xu Mu felt gratified.

As long as the war ends, he could live a peaceful life.

Perhaps the Luo Family would even move away!

Then it would be truly peaceful all under heaven!

“Hubby, what’s making you so happy?”

Ye Yingying came over with a cup of tea, seeing the corners of Xu Mu’s mouth curling into a smile, she asked curiously.

“I feel the war will soon end, and we can lead a calm life after!”

“Really? That’s great!”

Ye Yingying stated joyfully.

Then she placed down the teacup, pouring Xu Mu a cup of tea.

The tea had a red-brown color, with whimsical puffs of steam emitting a sweet aroma.

“Hubby, try it, do you like it? Sister Lan gifted it to me yesterday!”

“Okay!”

Xu Mu took a sip and asked perplexedly, “This flavor? I’ve never tasted it before! What kind of tea is this?”

“It’s not tea, but a kind of red wild fruit, reportedly beneficial for patching up vitality!”

Ye Yingying opened the teapot cover to show Xu Mu.

The red fruit inside had already been soaked, and its grains made it look very familiar.

Isn’t this wolfberry?!

Xu Mu was speechless.

I am capable of killing an ox with a single punch now, do I need to drink such a thing?!!

“Ask Friend Lan where she bought it, 1 will go buy some tomorrow!”

“Okay!”

In the blink of an eye, a few days had passed, during Xu Mu’s cultivation, his spiritual power flowed naturally and his cultivation level broke through to the sixth layer of Qi Cultivation Stage.

Along with his cultivation breakthrough, there was another surprise!

Little Ling’er could speak!

Unfortunately, the first word she uttered was not “father”!

Another month passed in a blink of an eye, Little Ling’er could already toddle around, and her food had been replaced by Spirit Rice and beast meat long ago. Her teeth had pretty much emerged making her able to chew on her own. However, to avoid nutrient deficiency, Xu Mu would occasionally buy her beast milk as a supplement.

Of course, he did not forget the Jade Marrow Pill!

But Little Ling’er disliked the taste of Jade Marrow Pill, and it would take a long coaxing every time to get her to eat it.

Ultimately, Lan Shijin suggested wrapping it in honey, successfully addressing this troublesome issue.

Regarding the battle between two major sects, only good news was coming in.

The Clear River Sword Sect had almost fully regained all the lost territories and both sects had entered a stand-off phase, probably leading to a resolution through negotiation.

All relocated families had begun packing their belongings, likely planning to leave once their ancestral head returned.

The city’s expansion work was naturally forsaken.

However, this was what Xu Mu had been hoping for.

In terms of cultivating skill, Xu Mu had achieved an unexpected advancement.

Perhaps it was his rebirth after marrow refining that led to agile thinking, the Lv third-tier Fire-controlling Skill progressed at an unprecedented speed. In only two to three months, it raised by several hundred points and was already nearing Proficiency.

Even the Light Body Skill, which he practiced casually occasionally, had improved by more than a hundred points in proficiency.

He would not have dared to dream of such a progression rate in the past.

At one point, he had visited the store selling martial arts manuals and indeed found the Qingjiao Sword Secret manual for sale. However, it only included basic cultivation methods and lacked the detailed annotations available in his version.

Feeling comforted, he took time to practice it a little and achieved beginner status.

When practiced with the fire sword condensed using the Fire-controlling Skill, he indeed saw an increase in its power.

Unfortunately, he had no time for further cultivation and did not have sufficient Luck Value for improvement, so he put it aside for now.

Thus, his days passed by.

The external environment was peaceful, family life was fulfilling, his personal strength was improving drastically and with his Luck Value once again crossing a thousand, he no longer feared causing fatal incidents during the nights. Everything was progressing in a positive direction.

Until one day, Su Qing unexpectedly initiated contact saying someone wanted to meet him..
