Chapter 117: Chapter 105 Dilemma of Offsprings
Translator: 549690339 |
Lan Shijin was the first to advance to the Foundation Establishment, to thank Xu Mu, or perhaps because she was deceived by him, she agreed to leave the fluid inside her.
Yet, despite being Foundation Establishment for nearly a year now, Xu Mu had diligently tried everyday, spending lengthy periods of time in the cave, but unfortunately there was still no reaction.
This made Xu Mu wonder, had Lan Shijin used some kind of secret technique to metabolize the fluid?
Or was it too difficult to conceive because of age?
However, seeing the disappointed expression on Lan Shijin’s face, Xu Mu decided that wasn’t the case.
Leng Yuening was the second to advance, and it has nearly been a year for her as well!
Xu Mu tried thrice a day, but to no avail.
Then came Si Tan’er and Ye Yingying!
The two of them had been Foundation Establishment for a shorter period, thus he couldn’t be sure.
However, he estimated that the results would not be much different!
“Seems like the rumors were true, those at the Foundation Establishment and Golden Core Stages are not unwilling to have children, but simply unable to!”
Although he had heard such rumors and was mentally prepared, actually experiencing it was still somewhat disappointing.
However, he would not deliberately keep his women at the Qi Cultivation Stage just for bearing children for him.
Even though he wished to achieve more and gain more Luck Values, he would never treat his women as mere tools for achieving that.
If he did that, there would be no difference between him and a demonic cultivator!
He admitted he wasn’t a kind man, but he didn’t wish to be a complete lunatic!
He simply hoped for his family to be well, both his women and his children!
Not merely a tool used for obtaining Luck Values!
Hence, he was willing to spend considerable time making medicines for them, to enhance their cultivation.
Of course, having said all that—
They should still have children, but not to the extent that they did nothing else.
If they were willing, Xu Mu was of course delighted.
If they were not, he would not force them.
Moreover, they weren’t entirely to blame for this. Xu Mu’s advancement to the Foundation Establishment had an impact as well.
However, Xu Mu wasn’t without solutions.
When he learned of this, he started to seek solutions.
Eventually, he found two ways to solve it
One was to use pills, the other was Martial Methods!
He had been inquiring about a pill called the Innate Xuan Yang Pill, which could greatly increase the chances of conception, but he had not found the recipe yet.
As for Martial Methods, he had one—
[Yin and Yang Harmony – One Hundred and Eight Forms]!
Many methods documented within could significantly increase the probability of conception if Xu Mu continued to cultivate it.
However, the requirements for cultivating this method were too high, every level demanded ten times the effort, and he couldn’t improve in a short period.
So—
Although he had solutions, he couldn’t apply them yet.
The simplest way to achieve more was to take concubines, but Xu Mu wasn’t interested in ordinary women as they might be burdens, gaining less Luck Value than invested.
Unless Xu Mu was truly heartless, willing to watch them grow old and die!
However, should the woman be extraordinary, he feared complications like those with Chi Feiyan, which could be even more troublesome!
So, he had to be cautious!
Let it all come naturally!
Setting aside these troubling thoughts, Xu Mu summoned his lifebound spirit beast to check on its condition.
The evolution of a lifebound spirit beast was closely tied to Martial Methods. If his cultivation advanced, the spirit beast should change as well.
Coo!
A blue bird, its body ablaze in flames, flew out from within him, perched on his shoulder, and intelligently preened its feathers. Its long tail gently quivered, specks of light dancing like fireflies, resembling the mythical bird from legends.
Compared to a crow, the blue bird was much more attractive.
Every time his four children saw him, they clamored for him to release the blue bird.
