Chapter 89: 【Seeking Techniques, Having a Special Preference】 (Second update, seeking subscriptions)

He truly didn't expect that he had been so conscientiously helping humans exterminate demons, but as a result, he attracted a human kill order, while the demon side he persecuted instead wanted to recruit him.

Was this a corruption of morality or a loss of human heart!?

However, having said that, the identity of a Taotie descendant could be utilized.

After devouring a large number of demonic beasts, Lu Chengtong obtained various transformation forms; with his current 【Embryonic Transformation】 supernatural power, he could completely combine the characteristics of various demonic beasts to fuse into the appearance of a Taotie.

In any case, it was just a descendant with some bloodline; it was normal to have some differences.

Ten years of busyness were not in vain; besides twenty-four demon cores and the same number of Golden Core realm Dao Fruits, Lu Chengtong's cultivation had also reached the eighth layer of the Golden Core realm, and it looked like in another ten years, he would be able to step into the ninth layer of the Golden Core realm.

Within fifty years, he would definitely try to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.

It wasn't that breaking through his cultivation was simple now, but that he had prepared too many things and had a deep foundation; if he still couldn't have such a fast cultivation speed, then he had wasted so many resources.

Relatively speaking, the aptitude of this main body of his was still worse; if it were replaced by a Heavenly Spirit Root, his cultivation would have already reached the Golden Core perfection, and he would have tried to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.

Chen Sanqing, with his superior Golden Spirit Root, had now reached the seventh layer of the Golden Core realm without the assistance of as many resources as he had.

And the clone, which also possessed a superior spirit root, had now reached the Golden Core perfection.

The clone took the Spirit-Nurturing Stone as its foundation to take form, and its spirit root quality was a mutated superior Earth Spirit Root; its cultivation speed and absorption efficiency of spiritual energy were extremely high. Lu Chengtong was already planning to let it break through to the Nascent Soul realm.

With the root of the Spirit-Nurturing Stone, wanting to break through to the Nascent Soul realm was not a problem.

As long as the accumulation was sufficient, it could break through perfectly.

But Lu Chengtong had to consider how to cultivate after breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm.

The cultivation methods he held were at most techniques up to the Golden Core realm.

Every major realm of immortal cultivation—Fetal Breath realm, Qi Refining realm, Foundation Establishment realm, Golden Core realm, and Nascent Soul realm—had corresponding cultivation methods.

Without suitable techniques, getting half the result with twice the effort was considered good; the greater possibility was difficulty in making progress.

The clone needed it, the main body also needed it, and the Lu family also needed such secret techniques to support subsequent progress.

After thinking for a while, Lu Chengtong thought of a place.

Qingyu Immortal Sect.

This sect was originally one of the top twenty sects in the Beihuang Region, but the only two Spirit Transformation True Monarchs in the sect were killed, and several Nascent Soul ancestors were implicated along with them, leaving only two Nascent Soul cultivators to maintain the facade.

The Qingyu Immortal Sect was considered a righteous sect, and other sects naturally wouldn't do things like forcibly seizing on the surface.

Its foundation was still very deep; after these decades of development, it had added two more Nascent Soul ancestors and received the care of the Qiankun Immortal Gate, one of the three great Immortal Gates. Compared to the Ziyao Immortal Sect, which also had two Nascent Soul ancestors, it was much better.

There must be a Spirit Transformation realm cultivation method within the Qingyu Immortal Sect. Lu Chengtong planned to do it all at once and get both the Nascent Soul realm and Spirit Transformation realm cultivation methods.

Forcible robbery was naturally not okay, and stealing was impossible.

High-level cultivation methods were generally mastered only by a few high-level figures and couldn't be stolen anywhere.

Wanting to obtain them, one could only let them hand them over voluntarily.

Lu Chengtong used the 【Round Light Manifestation】 supernatural power to observe for more than a month and finally selected an identity.

Among the two newly promoted Nascent Soul ancestors of the Qingyu Immortal Sect, there was a female cultivator with the Daoist name 'Jiuyuzi', who had always had a special preference for a male cultivator with the Daoist name 'Qingsongzi'.

Qingsongzi possessed a superior Wood-Earth dual spirit root, and his talent was even better than Jiuyuzi's superior Fire-medium Wood dual spirit root.

But the result was that Jiuyuzi broke through first.

Qingsongzi had been cultivating bitterly, but was stuck at the Golden Core perfection level and couldn't make progress; as a result, he also encountered that disaster decades ago, injured his foundation, and fell into long-term seclusion.

Jiuyuzi's feelings for him remained the same, and every once in a while, she would go to investigate the place where Qingsongzi was in seclusion.

According to Lu Chengtong's observation, Qingsongzi was about to die.

That injury was very serious, the foundation couldn't be repaired, and after trying for many years without success, his cultivation began to decline, and even that handsome and elegant appearance was becoming withered and aged.

He was an extremely self-centered and arrogant person who didn't want others to see him like this.

Especially that Jiuyuzi who had always been licking him.

He locked himself in the cave dwelling, isolated by an array, intending to just grow old and die inside like this.

Lu Chengtong's main body obtained his memory, and then let the clone extract his essence blood to complete the replacement.

After mastering his habits, on this day, he broke out of seclusion.

Coincidentally, Jiuyuzi came to visit today, which was already her habit.

Jiuyuzi wore wine-red dharma robes, with a green wine gourd tucked at her waist, and her hair, like a waterfall, was simply tied into a bun, with the remaining part still hanging down along her back to below her buttocks.

At her real age of two hundred and forty-seven, she only looked like a seventeen-year-old girl in the face, but her curvaceous figure was fully mature.

It had to be said that Qingsongzi could still resolutely refuse such a genius beautiful cultivator throwing herself into his arms; with such a firm Dao heart, no wonder he had reached the Golden Core perfection level at the age of only one hundred and sixty with double spirit root aptitude.

It was just a pity that just as he was about to break through, he encountered a demonic beast attack, was caught in the aftermath of a Spirit Transformation great demon's attack, his foundation was destroyed, and his cultivation was gradually wasted.

"Senior Brother! You've come out of seclusion!"

Jiuyuzi appeared in front of Qingsongzi at a distance of less than half a zhang in an instant, called out in surprise, and then asked with slight trepidation:

"Senior Brother, your injury?"

Lu Chengtong revealed a shallow smile, just like the previous Qingsongzi, carrying three parts of aloofness, three parts of carelessness, three parts of joy, and one part of self-centeredness.

"It's healed. My cultivation has been consolidated to the Golden Core perfection again, and I can try to break through to the Nascent Soul realm again."

Upon hearing this, Jiuyuzi stepped forward in surprise, seemingly wanting to hug Qingsongzi, but unsurprisingly, she was pushed away.

She didn't care at all, seemingly already accustomed to it, holding her wine gourd with both hands, and said happily:

"That's great! Senior Brother, what do you need? I will prepare it for you right away!"

Heh, this was one of the reasons Lu Chengtong chose to replace Qingsongzi.

When he decided to replace Qingsongzi, firstly, it was because he could naturally demand the Nascent Soul realm cultivation method, and secondly, it was because there was this deep-affection pursuer, Jiuyuzi, who could provide him with rich cultivation resources.

Although he didn't lack these things, since he could get them for free, why not take them?!

Moreover, he wasn't going to take things for free; he also planned to give Jiuyuzi a child.

Cough, it was also possible it wouldn't be just one. ===== CHAPTER 90 =====
