Longevity starts from having a daughter in old age

With the help of the system, he was able to achieve many things that ordinary cultivators would never be capable of.

For example, cultivating all four of his avatars to Golden Core Perfection, advancing the Thunder Termination skill to the Transcendent level, raising his primary tier-ten martial method to master level during the Golden Core Stage, refining all supporting secret techniques to the Transcendent level, and various beyond-top-grade pills!

For ordinary cultivators who struggle most of their lives, achieving just one of these feats would be quite the accomplishment. But not only did he achieve all of them, but he also took them to the extreme.

The most difficult aspect, his mental state, was also higher than other cultivators due to his experience of living two lifetimes.

It was because of the convergence of these conditions that everything turned out so ideally.

No one, not even Lu Jingkong, could see his situation without being astounded.

However, these matters couldn’t be explained to Lu Jingkong because they related to his biggest secret, and their relationship was merely a partnership.

After a long time, Lu Jingkong finally accepted the fact that Xu Mu had condensed his Nascent Soul, an Ancestral Nascent Soul no less.

“Anyway, you’ve already completed the breakthrough, so hurry up and let me out!”

Although this had been a long-awaited event, Lu Jingkong sounded rather deflated when speaking.

She was completely stunned by the progress of Xu Mu’s breakthrough.

“Senior, let me first consolidate my cultivation!” Xu Mu said with a smile.

Even though it was a small effort, he still preferred to be more cautious to prevent Lu Jingkong from exploiting any vulnerability.

“You are always busy with something!” Lu Jingkong said impatiently: “Don’t forget, you made a promise!”

“Senior, rest assured!” Xu Mu responded with a smile.

Before consolidating his cultivation, he opened the system to take a look.

[Name: Xu Mu]

[Life Span: 201/1800]

[Realm: Nascent Soul, 1st Level; 21w/1000w]

[Talent: Five Elements Affinity]

[Family Talent: Hundred Out Of Hundred Hits]

[Martial Method: Tier-nine, Master Level Kun Peng Tun Tian Jue; 521w/4000w]

…

The biggest change on the system screen, apart from the improvement in cultivation, was the life span. It had changed from the original one thousand years to one thousand eight hundred years, an increase of a total of eight hundred years, equivalent to an ordinary Nascent Soul’s later stage, which was completely unexpected to Xu Mu.

He was not even two hundred years old yet, so he had a long 1600 years left until he reached 1800 years old.

Just thinking about having such a long lifespan made him feel relaxed and his spirits were high.

Only the young are ignorant of worries!

“However, as far as I know, it seems that very few in the Nascent Soul Stage can live to their full age.”

Every three hundred years in the Nascent Soul Stage, one has to undergo a Heavenly Tribulation. Not many can survive it, let alone the consumption from warfare and cultivation.

Among the Nascent Souls he knew, very few could live more than a thousand years, and almost none could reach their full age.

Thinking about this, he couldn’t help reminding himself not to neglect cultivation due to the long lifespan like he did during the Golden Core Stage and get into risky situations.

One must always be prepared for danger in times of peace!

Looking down, most of his skills are only tier-nine. The few tier-ten skills are all stuck at the master level.

Now that he has reached the Nascent Soul Stage, all of these can be advanced, especially the primary martial method, which must be upgraded to the Grandmaster Realm as quickly as possible to speed up his cultivation progress.

The reason for not upgrading in the past was not due to the lack of Luck Value, but rather the limitations of his realm.

The gap between the Nascent Soul Stage and the Golden Core Stage was vast. Xu Mu could not cultivate the Martial Methods and Skills of the Nascent Soul Stage, even countless Luck Value would not help.

Otherwise, he would have taken his main Martial Method to the Transcendent level a long time ago.

Now that he has reached the Nascent Soul Stage, he can continue to improve in many aspects, and his strength will have a substantial increase again on the current basis.

Once his cultivation is consolidated, and every aspect is improved, while he might not be able to defeat a mid-stage Nascent Soul, the gap should not be too big.

After storing away the system panel, Xu Mu meditated for a day and a night to stabilize his cultivation temporarily. To consolidate completely, he would have to cultivate for several months.

He dared not drag it for so long, Lu Jingkong would surely curse him to death.

“Hurry up, hurry up! Let’s do it!”

Lu Jingkong was already somewhat impatient when she saw him open his eyes.

“Alright! But what do I do? You better not get me in trouble!” Xu Mu said.

The space here was not very stable. If it were to collapse, he would be the unfortunate one.

Even if he advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage, he did not dare to confront a collapsing space.

“Don’t worry, use the Space Grasp Skill that I taught you, destroy one of the nodes, disperse as far as you can, and will leave the rest to me!”

She had been trapped here for hundreds of years and had already figured out everything, only lacking an opportunity.

“Alright!”

Xu Mu nodded.

Then Lu Jingkong pointed out a location. After Xu Mu observed it on his own and confirmed that there was no problem, he destroyed the node according to Lu Jingkong’s method, then quickly left the secret territory and hid dozens of miles away.

The grand Divine Intent of the Nascent Soul Stage swept across hundreds of miles, and everything was clear to him.

“What a great feeling!”

The strong feeling brought by the Nascent Soul Stage made Xu Mu somewhat fascinated. Now he finally had the ability to protect himself in this world.

The Nascent Soul Stage was already a peak existence in this era. Unless he encountered a siege or a powerful late-stage Nascent Soul, even if he couldn’t win, he could run away.

Moreover, there was usually little fight among those at the Nascent Soul Stage.

Of course, if a fight really occurred, it would surely be a life-and-death struggle. After all, no one dared to spare a Nascent Soul cultivator who could threaten them at any time.

“Eh? Why are there so many people on the sea?”

Under his Divine Intent’s perception, he found that a large number of cultivators had gathered in the nearby sea area.

Soon, he heard from these people that his breakthrough was so significant that these people were attracted to it. Some wanted to join him, while others were messengers from various powers who came to express goodwill.

“It seems that my sudden emergence at the Nascent Soul Stage has a big impact on the Outer Sea!” Xu Mu muttered as he touched his nose.

The Outer Sea served as a buffer zone between the Cang Ming Ocean Territory and the Sea Race. There were not many high-tier cultivators here, and Nascent Souls were even rarer, totaling less than ten. Now that an extra one suddenly popped up, it definitely would cause changes.

The news had not spread completely yet since it was still early. It wouldn’t be long before the three major powers in the Cangming Sea territory, and even the Sea Race, would send people.

From this, one could see the status of the Nascent Soul and its tremendous influence.

But Xu Mu didn’t want to meet these people right now, nor did he have the intention of gaining fame or fighting for profits.

He had his own plans and did not intend to show up casually in this sea area.

“When Lu Jingkong comes out, I need to leave as soon as possible, or it will be troublesome if other Nascent Soul cultivators rush here!”

He didn’t have to wait long before the whole secret land collapsed with a thunderous boom, and the sea water poured in, quickly filling it up.

Standing not far away, Xu Mu quietly observed everything with his Divine Intent until the secret land completely collapsed. A white light rose from it, and then a strange Divine Intent fell on him. The white light flew towards him and landed in front of him, revealing a miniature figure.

With a phoenix-like eyes and jade-like nose, majestic and imposing, carrying an air of superiority, that was none other than Lu Jingkong’s original Nascent Soul form.

“Hurry up and give me back my body!”
