Longevity Family: Let Her Live At The Beginning, Let Her Live

In order to avoid attracting the attention of the sect, Zhang Ran and Gu Yunxiang did not choose to make a big fuss, so as not to incur the criticism of the sect leader.

The next morning,

Gu Yunxiang blushed and leaned against Zhang Ran.

"We shouldn't make a big deal out of this. The sect leader detests cultivators getting involved in romantic affairs. If she finds out, I'll probably be reprimanded."

"Sister, don't worry. I won't say anything. I don't plan on following those mundane customs anymore. After organizing weddings every day for a year, I'm sick of it."

For many cultivators, becoming Dao companions happens naturally without any grand wedding ceremonies, except for those arranged marriages between superpowers, which are held to make a public statement.

Thus, the Zhang family attracted their first wife at the Foundation Building Stage.

One month later,

Huang Jiaxin came to collect medicine. Today, she was wearing a light blue dress, her hair naturally flowing over her shoulders. She looked more beautiful and a bit more youthful than before. When she saw her junior sister Gu Yunxiang, who hadn't returned home for over a month, and noticed a hint of femininity and charm in her demeanor, she understood that Gu Yunxiang was no longer a virgin.

"Sister, please don't tell the sect leader. Otherwise, I'll definitely be punished," Gu Yunxiang pleaded.

"Don't worry, sister. I'm not a narrow-minded person," Huang Jiaxin looked at Zhang Ran, who had a calm expression and a harmless appearance.

She opened the jade bottle in her hand and saw five round pills inside. These were Essence Gathering Pills, and their quality was much better than those made by the alchemists in the sect.

She praised, "Junior Brother Zhang, your alchemy skills are much better than those of the alchemists in the sect. I thought three pills would be good enough, but I didn't expect there to be five. In addition to the reward I mentioned earlier, I'll give you these two pills as a gift."

Zhang Ran didn't refuse and accepted them gladly. The materials for Essence Gathering Pills were also precious, obtained by Huang Jiaxin from some dangerous places.

"Sister, with Junior Brother's pills, your progress in reaching the Core Formation stage will be shortened. Congratulations," Gu Yunxiang sincerely said.

Huang Jiaxin said leisurely, "I hope so. My talent is not considered good among the Little Rain Peak disciples. It's the talent of the eldest senior sister and the sixth junior sister that I envy. If the sixth junior sister had the assistance of these Essence Gathering Pills, she would probably catch up to the eldest senior sister's progress quickly."

Zhang Ran asked in astonishment, "Third senior sister, what kind of talent does the sixth junior sister have? Why does she have such cultivation at such a young age? She doesn't look older than forty and is already in the late Foundation Building stage. Her talent is truly shocking."

Third senior sister smiled mysteriously and set up a soundproof barrier. "Only the people from our Little Rain Peak know about this. Except for that Lin Youming, all of us sisters are aware. And you, you're the first man to know."

After hearing this, Zhang Ran became even more curious. Could it be that the sixth junior sister had some significant identity?

Third senior sister Huang Jiaxin continued, "The sixth junior sister is a Spirit Body and possesses a seventh-grade spiritual root."

Zhang Ran gasped. Such a genius! No wonder. A Spirit Body represents a natural affinity with spiritual energy, and they can even absorb spiritual energy without cultivation. They are like the beloved children of heaven. Such a person's path is bright, and Core Formation and Nascent Soul are not her limits. Coupled with a seventh-grade spiritual root, this kind of genius seems to be unheard of in the history of the Evergreen Sect.

"Did the Evergreen Sect just stumble upon a super treasure?"

Gu Yunxiang explained, "If only she really belonged to the Evergreen Sect. This senior sister was brought over by our sect leader from a good friend. She practiced at Little Rain Peak for ten years and then left. As for that good friend, it seems like they are a big shot from Dao Prefecture."

"Dao Prefecture?" Zhang Ran had never heard of this place. In his knowledge, this world was mainly governed by the six sects. Although he knew that there might be a broader territory outside, this was the first time he had heard of Dao Prefecture.

"Hmm, Dao Prefecture is extremely far from our six sects. Even Core Formation cultivators would need two to three years to travel back and forth, so there is basically no interaction."

"I see," Zhang Ran thought to himself that he would definitely come into contact with it in the future. The system he carried would surely spread his descendants throughout the world.

After Third senior sister Huang Jiaxin left, Zhang Ran resumed his daily work.

Time passed quickly during cultivation.

One year.

Two years.

Three years passed.

····

Five years.

After taking the Essence Gathering Pill, Huang Jiaxin secluded himself and never visited Zhang Ran's mansion again. Only Fifth Senior Sister came for a while, and then no one else came to visit.

Zhang Ran occasionally went to Little Rain Peak to attend classes and listen to lectures. His relationship with his senior sisters grew stronger day by day.

In these five years, Zhang Ran's concubines gave birth to many children. The older ones were allowed to live a peaceful life in the Zhang family. Almost every concubine had ten children.

During these five years, only a few of the concubines' children had pseudo spirit roots. Zhang Ran was quite frustrated with each one being at the first level.

A few wives at the Qi Refining Stage.

Fortunately, nine children with first-level spirit roots were born after five years.

This probability was already a huge surprise.

In total, there were twenty-eight Qi Refining wives, plus one Foundation Building wife. In these five years, over a hundred children were born.

The Qi Refining wives gave birth to six children with first-level spirit roots. Gu Yunxiang was indeed impressive, being a Foundation Building cultivator. Among the two children she gave birth to, one had a first-level spirit root, and the other had a second-level spirit root.

Having so many children with spirit roots brought abundant rewards.

After settling everything together, Zhang Ran's cultivation reached the fifth level of Foundation Building. He was about to break through to the sixth level. The limit for a second-level spirit root was the first or second level of Foundation Building.

Reaching the sixth level was unprecedented.

At the same time, Zhang Ran gained a new skill.

Formation Master.

A total of one thousand years of formation experience.

Zhang Ran directly reached the third rank of Formation Master and could set up formations to kill Core Formation cultivators.

In addition, he was rewarded with two high-grade yellow-tier techniques: the Taiqing Technique and the Yangchun Formula. He placed these two techniques in the Zhang family's technique repository. There were also three low-grade techniques: Inner Heart Technique, Six Paths Decision, and Qi Refining Formula.

These were provided for future generations to choose for cultivation. Zhang Ran specifically divided the technique repository into three levels, separating the high-grade and low-grade techniques. To learn high-grade techniques, one had to at least be in the later stage of Qi Refining, otherwise it would be a waste, unless they were born with advanced spirit roots and could directly choose powerful techniques.

When the children with second-level spirit roots were born, Zhang Ran was also rewarded with a second-rank Dao technique, the Five Thunder Curse. After obtaining it, Zhang Ran found an empty space to try it out. It was much stronger than the Meteor Shower.

"This Five Thunder Curse is definitely top-notch among second-rank Dao techniques. Usually, thunder techniques are only available at the third rank. The system is really powerful to provide it at the second rank."

Learning the Five Thunder Curse elevated Zhang Ran's strength to another level. Currently, he had three low-grade Law Weapons, one medium-grade Law Weapon, and his own talismans as support. He had also perfected two second-rank Dao techniques, in addition to the high-grade yellow-tier technique and Body Refining technique.

At the Foundation Building Stage, Zhang Ran had already become one of the strong.

Zhang Ran walked out of his mansion, feeling refreshed after the intimate time with Gu Yunxiang.

At this moment, Wang Ling approached with a worried expression.

Seeing her, Zhang Ran felt extremely frustrated. It seemed that the Extreme Yin Constitution wasn't as easy to give birth to. After five years of struggle, there was still no sign of it. Now, seeing Wang Ling's troubled face, he couldn't help but ask.

"What's wrong? You look unhappy."

Wang Ling's expression was unnatural as she said, "Husband, I think I know who was behind the plot to kill my grandfather back then. And they are the masterminds behind the destruction of my Wang family."
