Longevity starts from having a daughter in old age

Chapter 185: Chapter 160: Advancing Golden Pill_1

Translator: 549690339

Time flies like running water, and in the blink of an eye, three years have passed.

With Xu Mu’s secret help, the four little ones, Xu Ling, Xu Yin, Xu Sheng, and Xu Xia, joined the Palace of Pure Heart.

After all, it’s safer as they’re with their family.

Of course, he did not tell Nangong Suyi and Mo Wuxin about the four’s identities, but only arranged secretly for the four to be Mo Wuxin’s named disciples.

This way, they also seemed to have a Golden Core Stage backup, greatly increasing their safety. Disciples in the Palace of Pure Heart would not dare to bully them casually.

Due to changes in the environment and Xu Ling’s increasing age, her character has become somewhat calmer, meaning a lot to Xu Mu.

Only when seeing his daughter growing bigger, Xu Mu unavoidably began to worry, lest she’d be taken by someone else.

This anxiety was eased when the girls gave birth to their babies one after another.

He had to take care of the main body and couldn’t relax with the auxiliary ones either!

As the children were born, Xu Mu received two new achievements in succession.

[ Achieved: Flourishing Population!]

[ Flourishing Population: You can get 50 luck points every day!]

[Achieved: Prosperous!]

[ Prosperous: You can get too luck points every day!]

Besides, in three years, Xu Mu had gathered the ingredients for Dust Reduction Pills and Hao Yuan Pills, and also mastered the refining techniques of the two kinds of pills to the transcendent level.

The refining of pills went smoothly without any surprises. Xu Mu successfully refined two furnaces of beyond-top-grade Dust Reduction Pills and Hao Yuan Pills.

All preparations had been made for the promotion.

To lay a solid foundation, he advanced the Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body to the transcendent level, coalescing thunder that could strike down a Golden Core early-stage practitioner.

The only thing that still made him hesitate now was the martial method.

He was uncertain whether to advance based on the Crimson Spirit Jue, or change to a new martial method to set an unprecedented foundation.

If he changed it, should he start cultivating the tier six martial method

Heaven s Infinite Jue based on the Palace of Pure Heart, or Kun Peng Tun Tian Jue, the strength of which he didn’t know yet?

These are the two most complete methods he has, which can be cultivated to the Nascent Soul Stage.

The reason why he was hesitating was that, based on his current foundation, forming a top-grade Golden Pill would not be a problem.

This is already the strongest Golden Pill in the cultivation world.

So is there still a need to continue improving?

If he continues to improve, will something change when he advances in due course?

And especially the last issue, because it is unknown, so it causes fear.

For this problem, he deliberated for several months.

In the end, curiosity prevailed.

He wanted to see if he could actually form a top-grade Golden Pill as he had hypothesized.

“If it doesn’t work, I’ll just try again. With my age, I can still afford to make mistakes!”

Now that his Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body has been advanced to the transcendent level, his lifespan has reached five hundred years. As he is less than one hundred years old now, he has plenty of time to experiment.

As for the choice of the martial method, naturally, it was the Kun Peng Tun Tian Jue.

Although he didn’t know about the specific strength of the method, just looking at the luck points consumed, it far exceeds the tier six Heaven’s Infinite Jue.

Xu Mu decided to close up for cultivation in White River City. On one hand, because it’s his base, his family now provides him with a thousand luck points. On the other hand, Ye Yingying, Leng Yuening, and Lan Shijin have all been brought back by him.

The reason they were brought back was very simple.

With him here, and with the help of the Illusive Thunder Array, a safe growing environment could be provided for the children.

Even Ouyang Ying, Zhang Shouren, and Zhang Yu had returned. The city has been developing rapidly in the last few years, and they were just able to help manage business in the city.

As for Su Luan, she moved to the Palace of Pure Heart to live.

Mo Wuxin got along well with her and could help take care of her.

Also, she still had a sister to keep in touch with. It would be inconvenient for Xu Mu to bring her to White River City.

Of course, there’s still a very very important reason.

He’s afraid that Ming Ling Yulan would find him.

As for Xu Ling and others, they’ve grown older and their cultivation has reached the Qi Cultivation Late Stage, so it isn’t necessary for Xu Mu to watch over them every day.

Even if he wanted to watch over them every evening, he wouldn’t be able to.

Once the eagle has grown, it must search for its own sky.

They are Xu Mu’s children, but they are neither his slaves nor pets. They have their own lives and decisions to make. The only thing Xu Mu can do is support them.

If there’s really an accident one day, then it should only be blamed on bad luck!

After all arrangements were made, Xu Mu entered a semi-retired state, spending every day honing his martial methods and studying the path to advancement in seclusion.

In the blink of an eye, a few more years had passed.

On this day, the sky above White River City was suddenly filled with five- colored auspicious clouds. The next moment, all the surrounding elements within a hundred miles began fluctuating wildly, gathering towards White River City. The elements disappeared as abruptly as they appeared, giving the illusion of a mirage.

Later, the Xu Family from White River City issued an announcement saying that the fluctuations were due to a formation anomaly.

Although many people were sceptical, there was no way to prove the anomaly wrong. With the passage of time, the incident was left unresolved.

Inside the training room, a large amount of spirit stones were crushed at the same time to supplement the consumption needed for Xu Mu’s advancement to the Golden Core Stage. This caused the anomalies visible outside to quickly disappear within a short period of time.

The reason behind this was Xu Mu didn’t want people outside to know about his advancement.

The reason was pretty simple.

His speed of advancement was too fast!

In less than thirty years, he advanced from Foundation Establishment Stage to Golden Core Stage. If the experts in the cultivation world were to know about this, there couldn’t be any guarantee that they wouldn’t harbor any ill intentions.

For safety’s sake, hiding his cultivation level was a more prudent move.

After all, isn’t it more fun to play the fool and yet catch the wise?

Looking at the golden core inside Xu Mu’s body, although it had just finished congealing, its size and quality were comparable to a mid-stage golden core.

The golden core continued to contract and pulsate, as if it had a life of its own.

At the same time, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth automatically gathered within the golden core, unknowingly enhancing his cultivation.

This is the ability of a beyond-top-grade golden core, it possesses a shred of spirituality, which allows it to automatically enhance one’s cultivation.

This shred of spirituality is extremely precious, because the primary condition to advance to the Nascent Soul Stage is to impart a shred of spirituality into the energy-based golden core, transforming it from a lifeless state to one that’s alive.

It can be said that merely with this shred of spirituality, Xu Mu’s success rate of advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage had increased by fifty percent.

Many late-stage Golden Core practitioners, even after accumulating resources bitterly over hundreds of years, still only have a success rate in the twenties to thirty percent. Xu Mu, on the other hand, has already surpassed ninety-nine percent of the late-stage Golden Core practitioners even at the starting line.

If he were to prepare a few advancement assisting measures, the success rate could rise to eighty, or even ninety percent.

This advancement success rate is enough to make all Golden Core Stage practitioners green with envy.

What’s more infuriating is that with the automatic cultivation level enhancement ability of his beyond-top-grade Golden Core and the assistance of a puppet corpse, Xu Mu’s cultivation could proceed at a flying speed without even needing to consume any elixirs.

“So, does this mean I can start preparing for the breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage right now?”

After much consideration, Xu Mu came to this conclusion, which is both true and somewhat ridiculous.

When others break through to the Golden Core Stage, they are concerned about whether they can reach the late-stage Golden Core. As for the Nascent Soul Stage, they don’t even dare to think too much.

But Xu Mu is already considering how to enhance the success rate of advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage.

Indeed, having a system… ahem, all of this was achieved through my own efforts.

Xu Mu opened the system to check the enhancements made in recent years.

[Luck value: 11,274!]

Xu Mu is not sure of the level his strength has reached, but he is confident that he can easily deal with ten Golden Core early-stage practitioners. He should also be able to handle a regular mid-stage Golden Core practitioner. As for whether he can deal with late-stage Golden Core practitioners, that’s something he would need to test first.

“Since I’ve already completed the advancement, it’s time to implement my next step!”

Over the years, besides investing a large portion of his Luck Value into the main martial method “Kun Peng Tun Tian Jue,” he also spent a great deal of Luck Value to cultivate one particular spell to the transcendent level.

That spell is the Mayfly Possession Skill!

He planned on using this secret skill to create a clone to enter the cultivation world to gather resources for advancement, as going himself was far too dangerous.

Moreover, the body for the parasite was almost ready.

Xu Mu walked into the yard. This place, originally a resting area, was now transformed into a top-class spiritual field. It was surrounded by a high-tier Spirit Gathering Array, and there was even a spiritual spring to irrigate it every day.

There were no spiritual medicines or grains planted in the field; it only held a shed and a gourd vine with seven differently colored large gourds hanging from it. Each of them was about the size of a seven or eight-year-old child.
