Chapter 40: Chapter 40 Tide Sound Demon Cultivator

"If you feel anything strange with your body later, don’t be surprised."

After giving this instruction, Lu Ping activated the [Spiritual Root Enhancement], applying it on Lu Yuanshan.

A very noticeable change occurred within Lu Yuanshan.

From initial anticipation, Lu Yuanshan turned to astonishment, then confusion, and finally a face of utter bewilderment.

The surprise was that despite his father not being around, not giving him any food or teaching any cultivation technique, a pleasant and joyful sensation surged within his body.

This feeling was like taking a Divine Elixir, feeling very comfortable and smooth, making him squint his eyes to enjoy.

A barrier seemed to gently open.

The confusion was about what this feeling represented.

The final bewilderment was when his mind calmed down, completely unclear about what had happened within his body, like having a hack activated.

Luckily, it was only bewilderment for a moment, and then Lu Ping’s voice came over.

"Try cultivating and see if there’s any difference from before."

"Okay."

Lu Yuanshan followed the advice, performing his main cultivation technique, Purple Mansion Wood Spirit Heart Scripture.

This was a Wood Attribute Technique, perfect for his Wood Attribute Main Spirit Root cultivation, capable of being cultivated to the Crystallization Stage, taught personally by Lu Ping.

As usual, he absorbed Spiritual Qi, circulated the body’s energy flow, and cultivated back and forth a few times, the expression on Lu Yuanshan’s face became increasingly joyful.

"Hmm?"

He discovered that upon circulating the Purple Mansion Wood Spirit Heart Scripture, the speed at which Spiritual Qi flowed through his meridians was much faster than before, becoming unobstructed, without any hindrance.

Moreover, when Spiritual Qi finally entered the Dantian, the purity in refinement was optimized significantly. The cultivation efficiency was unmatched by anything in the past.

Feeling fresh while being secretly excited in his heart.

Is this what my father meant by giving me a hack?

Thus, Lu Yuanshan slowly ended his cultivation, unable to resist asking, "Father, what’s happening to me?"

He recounted the anomalies during cultivation to Lu Ping.

After listening, Lu Ping called up Lu Yuanshan’s personal attribute information and noticed a change in the qualification section where [Wood and Earth Dual Spirit Roots] appeared.

It had become [Qualification: Wood Spirit Root (Celestial Spirit Root)]

The result was clear.

After using [Spiritual Root Enhancement], Lu Yuanshan’s Wood and Earth Dual Spirit Roots were enhanced, optimized into a better Wood Attribute Single Spirit Root, which is the Celestial Spirit Root.

Unsure how to describe this event to his eldest son’s inquiry.

Also uncertain whether Lu Yuanshan would believe he’s now a Celestial Spirit Root.

After thinking for a while, Lu Ping decided to bluntly and straightforwardly explain.

"Yuanshan, you are now a Celestial Spirit Root Cultivator."

"??!"

Lu Yuanshan was once again utterly bewildered.

The next moment, Lu Ping’s voice came again.

"I optimized your Dual Spirit Roots into Celestial Spirit Root."

Now it was heard clearly.

"Celestial Spirit Root..."

Lu Yuanshan opened his mouth wide.

"Oh crap..."

Suddenly losing control of his Dao Heart.

This was also transmitted through Communication, reaching Lu Ping’s ears.

Hearing his eldest son rarely curse, Lu Ping couldn’t help but chuckle. It seemed the Spiritual Root Enhancement had a significant impact on Lu Yuanshan.

But honestly, Lu Ping was also unable to stay calm about such an impressive Spiritual Root enhancement for Lu Yuanshan.

He too was filled with joy.

The sect finally has a Celestial Spirit Root Cultivator, and it’s his own eldest son.

With his current Celestial Spirit Root qualification, as long as he can find a more suitable Wood Attribute Technique for continuous cultivation, coupled with sufficient resources for cultivation.

Without a doubt, achieving Foundation Establishment Stage before sixty is certain.

If he works hard afterward and has some fortuitous encounters, reaching the Golden Core Stage by a hundred is possible. He might even have a chance to aspire to the Nascent Soul Stage with a substantial probability of breakthrough.

A Celestial Spirit Root Cultivator has an exceptionally smooth path in Dao.

Lu Ping already seems to see that Yuanshan’s future accomplishments will far surpass his own, potentially venturing much further in cultivation, having a chance to glimpse the landscape at the end of Immortal Dao.

This is undoubtedly a cause for celebration.

Lu Yuanshan now carries Lu Ping’s expectations and even the expectations of the entire Cyan Mountain Sect, being the future of the sect.

Lu Ping surely hopes for his son to become a dragon.

Of course, expecting Lu Yuanshan alone to shoulder the entire Cyan Mountain Sect is impossible; Lu Ping wouldn’t put that level of pressure on him.

Not hoping for much, only wishing for Lu Yuanshan to quickly increase his strength, striving to be the first to breakthrough to Foundation Establishment Stage within the coming years.

"Alright, you’re now a Celestial Spirit Root Cultivator. You can celebrate later. You should know the importance and urgency of keeping the Spiritual Root Enhancement confidential."

"When you have time, go secretly test your Spiritual Root qualification, but don’t make it public."

Considering that if this matter leaks out, it might attract various factions, even High-Tier Cultivators of Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Lu Ping decided it was better to keep it secret.

Only he and Lu Yuanshan need to know.

Because such a method for enhancing Spiritual Root, whether true or false, even a hint of it leaking out would stir up a storm of envy from all sides.

By then, Cyan Mountain Sect would become the target of turmoil, with chaos breeding more disorder, and not even the Dubhe Institute might ensure Cyan Mountain Sect’s safety.

"I understand."

Lu Yuanshan showed a serious expression and nodded heavily.

"But testing Spiritual Root..."

At this, he smiled bitterly: "To be honest, the sect currently has no Spirit Testing Array. It was damaged and hasn’t been rebuilt since that demonic chaos in Lushan County, making Spiritual Root testing impossible."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ping was silent for a while, as expected.

The sect doesn’t even have an alchemist, so not having a Spirit Testing Array is reasonable.

Plus, rebuilding the Spirit Testing Array is quite costly, requiring at least around ten thousand Spirit Stones, equivalent to a Golden Core Pill.

Cyan Mountain Sect wouldn’t spend such a huge sum on rebuilding a Spirit Testing Array because recently, there’s been no intention to recruit disciples; they can’t manage the few existing disciples well, let alone put on airs to recruit outsiders.

Moreover, if money is spent on rebuilding the Spirit Testing Array, why not use it to buy a Golden Core Pill to cultivate a Foundation Establishment Cultivator for the sect?

That kind of thinking.

That’s why Cyan Mountain Sect hasn’t started rebuilding the Spirit Testing Array.

Lu Yuanshan shared this idea with Lu Ping, and Lu Ping didn’t think it was unreasonable.

If financially able, the sect would surely establish a Spirit Testing Array.

Blame for this can only be placed on the sect’s poverty.

Building a Spirit Testing Array can wait until there’s capability in the future, no rush for now.

Father and son didn’t delve too deeply into the topic, soon ending the Communication.

In the days that followed, Lu Yuanshan maintained a state of secret excitement in cultivation, with enthusiasm much higher than before.

Time quickly passed, autumn gave way to winter.

On Cyan Lotus Mountain, the autumn breeze slowly receded, turning into the cold of winter.

As the founder of the sect, Lu Ping’s daily activities included wandering around Cyan Lotus Mountain, visiting various corners of the mountain.

It was inevitable; as a mere consciousness body, he couldn’t cultivate or sleep; all he could do daily was researching the system and drifting around.

When in a good mood, he chats with Lu Yuanshan and Zhiwei through Communication to relieve boredom, but this was occasional.

After revisiting the Spirit Field and Medicinal Garden, Lu Ping arrived outside the sect hall, considering whether to conduct one or two explorations of Doorway Affairs to accumulate Reputation and assign tasks to disciples for exercise.

Whatever he wanted to do, he did.

Just as he opened the system panel, a notification suddenly appeared before him.

[Ding, received Xuu Yi’s distress message]
