WTF, The Centuries-Old Ancestor In Our Family Take Concubine Again!

Chapter 1 - “More Children, More Blessings” System

Chapter 1: Centenarian of Foundation Building, “More Children, More Blessings” System

“Congratulations to the Ancestor! Today, the Ancestor has achieved Foundation Building, and tomorrow Golden Core is within reach. The Ancestor’s prestige will surely spread throughout the land.”

“The Ancestor is mighty! Our Li family will surely rise to greater heights.”

“…”

An atmosphere of jubilation filled the air within a vast estate spanning over 10,000 acres. Guests were arriving one after another, bearing all kinds of precious gifts. Today marked the day when the Ancestor of the Li family achieved Foundation Building.

With one step into Foundation Building, one was no longer a mortal.

In the eyes of ordinary people, a Qi Refining Cultivator was already similar to an immortal, and a Foundation Building Cultivator was even more elusive and exceptionally rare.

The Ancestor of the Li family was a secular person and one of the few “immortals” that mortals could come into contact with.

Consequently, there was a significantly large number of guests in attendance today. Upon closer inspection, a pattern among the guests could be seen– Many of them were accompanied by young and beautiful women.

“Moon, although the Ancestor of the Li family is over a hundred years old, he is an immortal who appears to be only about twenty years old, radiating an air of dignity and nobility. You must conduct yourself well. If he is interested in you and takes you as a concubine, our Hu family will prosper more.” At this moment, a wealthy businessman dressed in opulence was advising his beloved daughter.

There were many individuals like him, providing such counsel to their daughters.

The reason was simple–

The Ancestor of the Li family was a unique “immortal.”

The distinction between an immortal and a mortal was significant. Other “immortals” rarely made appearances in the ordinary world. For the sake of cultivation, many “immortals” would avoid contact with women and actively renounce their worldly desires, let alone marry and have children.

However, the Ancestor of the Li family went against the norm.

After attaining the status of an “immortal,” the Ancestor of the Li family began taking in concubines almost every year, and sometimes even multiple concubines in a single year. Despite being a hundred years old, the Ancestor possessed a timeless handsomeness and youthfulness that surpassed even that of a teenager.

Furthermore, despite having numerous wives and concubines, the Ancestor treated each and every one of them with kindness. Even if they couldn’t achieve immortality themselves, they were able to enjoy lives of wealth and prosperity under his care.

The protagonist of the event ‘Li Su’ was sitting at the head of today’s banquet, accepting the congratulations of his descendants. His mood was buoyant. While it had taken him a hundred years to achieve Foundation Building but the moment he succeeded, his strength and status underwent a dramatic transformation.

Li Su held a high position in the cultivation world as a Foundation Building Cultivator. At least within the region where he operated, he commanded considerable respect from others in the realm of cultivation. Many people would respectfully address him as “Senior.”

Another reason for Li Su’s contentment on this day was the return of all his descendants. When he first transmigrated into the fantasy world, he was a solitary 20-year-old boy. But now, 80 years later, Li Su had thousands of descendants. Among them were hundreds of children, as well as grandchildren and great-grandchildren in abundance. The courtyard was packed with thousands of Li Su’s descendants, proof of his thriving family.

Li Su’s prosperous lineage could be attributed to his consistent practice of taking concubines and expanding his family over the past few decades.

Over the course of 80 years, Li Su took in over 100 concubines, each of whom bore him several children. This large number of concubines ensured a prosperous future for the Li family in terms of population growth.

Li Su’s motivation for having so many concubines was simple– Upon crossing over to a world where immortals and gods truly existed, he did not want to be an ordinary person with a limited lifespan. His goal was to practice cultivation and achieve immortality.

However, Li Su faced a significant hurdle in his spiritual journey. His spiritual root was extremely weak, almost nonexistent. He could not retain spiritual energy without a strong spiritual root. He could not retain spiritual energy no matter how hard he cultivated. Even if he had access to precious resources, he would not be able to establish a solid foundation in his lifetime. Moreover, acquiring enough cultivation resources was a difficult task.

Fortunately, being a time traveler opened new possibilities for Li Su. While one door closed with his weak spiritual root, another bigger one opened. He obtained a unique ability granted by the “More Children, More Blessings” system, a golden finger available to time travelers. This system rewarded Li Su for having numerous descendants. Each additional child he had would extend his lifespan and increase his cultivation level.

The greatest impact was observed in the first generation of descendants.  Li Su could increase a certain degree of his lifespan and cultivation level with every son or daughter’s birth. However, the effect diminished with subsequent generations. The effect was halved for grandchildren, and it continued to decrease for great-grandchildren and beyond.

Furthermore, if any of Li Su’s descendants possessed a spiritual root and engaged in cultivation, he could benefit from their progress. However, spiritual roots were rare, and among Li Su’s thousands of descendants, only one had a relatively ordinary spiritual root. Generally, the probability of offspring having a spiritual root was higher when both parents were cultivators, and the strength of the cultivator influenced the probability.

Many female cultivators, focused solely on their cultivation, showed little interest in starting a family or having children.

On the contrary, Li Su desired to marry a “fairy” and was even willing to grant his partner the status of a legal wife. However, due to his poor spiritual roots, it would be challenging for him to find a “fairy” who would be willing to marry him, despite his handsome appearance. As a result, Li Su’s concubines over the past 80 years consisted of ordinary women. Though they were ordinary, they possessed remarkable beauty.

Even with the assistance of the system, Li Su could not extend the lifespan of these women. The only thing he could do was to treat them well, provide them with the best life possible, and allow them to enjoy wealth and honor without any regrets. Despite having numerous women, each one of them remained deeply infatuated and grateful to Li Su until their final moments.

As long as I reach Foundation Establishment, it won’t take too many years to achieve Golden Core, Li Su thought while accepting congratulations from future generations.

It took him eighty years to reach the Foundation Establishment and become an “immortal” in the eyes of ordinary people was because initially Li Su found it difficult to take in concubines.

The system required them to be willing and have a facial score of at least 8. It was easy to find a few concubines who met these criteria but difficult to find too many. Only after Li Su reached the Qi Refining stage and became an “immortal” in the eyes of ordinary people, now it became somewhat easier for him.

Li Su had no worries about his lifespan since he had numerous offspring. His lifespan had already exceeded one thousand years, comparable to that of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

However, his cultivation level remained a challenge. The cultivation base rewarded by the system was calculated based on Li Su’s spiritual root level. With his current number of descendants, Li Su’s cultivation level should have surpassed a thousand years, surpassing even Nascent Soul with a stronger spiritual root. However, due to Li Su’s weak spiritual roots, he could only achieve Foundation Establishment at best, even after over a thousand years of cultivation. This highlighted the extent of his poor spiritual roots.

Nevertheless, spiritual roots could be enhanced. In the “More Children, More Blessings” system, Li Su had a method to improve his spiritual roots by giving birth to offspring with strong spiritual roots.
