Chapter 146: Dominant Wood Spiritual Root (1/2)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Hundred Herbs Alley, in the home tunnel.
As soon as Chen An went down the tunnel, he saw his wives and daughters sitting down, waiting for him to come back.
“Husband!”
Upon seeing Chen An return, Song Huaying, who was feeding her daughter, immediately went up to him with a sweet smile.
Chen An opened his arms and pulled her into his embrace. He lowered his head and kissed her little face.
Then, he gently said to the others,
“Everyone, wait a moment. I’ll put the water in the vat now. It’ll be ready soon.”
“Husband, don’t be anxious. You’ve just returned, rest for a while.”
Wen Zhiyun said gently, which was rare.
However, Chen Yuejian was not so considerate. She pointed at her sister, Chen
Yi Ke, and said,
“Father, Little Yi Ke peed on the bed. Hurry up and get some water to help her wash up!”
When Chen An heard this, he looked at Wen Zhiyun and asked, “Didn’t you use a Cleaning Talisman to help her clean up?”
“You still have the cheek to say that? Haven’t you already used up all the Cleaning Talismans in my storage bag?”
Wen Zhiyun rolled her eyes at him and rebuked unhappily.
In the past few days after moving in, Chen An, who had free time to refine pills, had to be intimate with his wives every day.
Among them, he had slept with Wen Zhiyun the most.
He had to use the Cleaning Talisman almost every night.
It consumed a lot of talismans.
After hearing Wen Zhiyun’s words, Chen An also reacted.
Then, with a thought, he took out a Cleaning Talisman from his storage bag and used it on his second daughter, who had a silly expression on her face. Her body became refreshed and clean again.
Then, he said to Wen Zhiyun,
“In the future, if you lack any daily necessities, remember to tell me. I still have a lot in my storage bag.”
With that said, he looked at his other three wives and smiled reliably.
“You too. Tell me if there’s anything you need.”
“Husband, what if 1 lack love?”
Song Huaying, who was in his arms, was very mischievous. She said in a soft voice with a face that needed to be taught a lesson.
Chen An patted her voluptuous curves and smiled meaningfully. “Don’t be anxious. When it’s bedtime, I’ll replenish your love.”
“Husband is so annoying.”
Song Huaying pouted her rosy lips and spoke in a coquettish voice, like a daughter who was acting coquettishly to her father.
Chen An’s heart itched when he saw this. He leaned close to her ear and whispered, “Don’t worry, I’ll become even more annoying tonight. I’ll make you cry.”
“Husband, do you want to hit me again?”
Song Huaying had a pair of adorable eyes as she looked up at Chen An pitifully.
Wen Zhiyun, who was more traditional and conservative, couldn’t bear to watch the two of them flirt. She turned around and walked towards the room with her two daughters.
Gu Xinyue, on the other hand, felt envious. She also wanted to flirt with her husband, but she couldn’t let go.
Shen Qingyi did not feel anything when she saw this. She had no intention of taking the initiative to flirt with Chen An.
However, if Chen An took the initiative to flirt with her, she would respond.
In the blink of an eye.
Night came.
Chen An had accompanied Shen Qingyi last night, so it was Song Huaying’s turn to accompany him tonight.
Due to the scarcity of water resources, he did not bathe with Song Huaying. Instead, they each used a Cleaning Talisman.
“Husband, last time you told me a story about building a car behind closed doors. What story are you going to tell me tonight?”
Song Huaying lay beside Chen An, her smooth and slender legs swaying mischievously. She was only wearing a thin undergarment, revealing most of her snow-white and flawless body. She looked exceptionally alluring.
Chen An lay on his side beside her. Bored, he reached out and grabbed one of her restless little feet. He held it in his hand and rubbed it lovingly.
Then, he smiled and said,
“It’s a long night tonight. Let me tell you the story of the three paths of Daoism.”
“Husband, you’ve already told this story before. Can you tell another?”
Song Huaying had a pitiful look on her face, making people want to ravage her.
Chen An pretended to be troubled. “Ying’er has heard it and doesn’t want to hear it again, but what if I still like to talk about it?”
“Then Ying’er, listen to Husband obediently.”
Song Huaying’s face flushed red as she looked forward to it.
The story was long.
They talked until dawn.
When the morning sun shone down, Song Huaying was already extremely tired. Her breathing was a little chaotic as she lay on the bed and panted.
Chen An was a Cultivator in the late-stage of the Foundation Establishment realm and did not need much sleep. He was still looking up and did not feel tired at all.
He stroked the messy hair on Song Huaying’s forehead and suddenly thought of something. He said to her,
“By the way, Ying’er, on the way back from fetching water yesterday, I killed a large group of tree demons and obtained many tree demon cores.”
“You have the bloodline of the Flower God and a Wood-type demon core in your body. These demon cores should be able to help you nurture yours.”
“Give it a try.”
As Chen An spoke, he took out all the tree demon cores in his storage bag. He took out one and handed it to Song Huaying.
Song Huaying took it and looked at it. With a puzzled expression, she asked, “Husband, how do I use this?”
ii
It’s very simple. Just stick this tree demon core closest to yours.”
Chen An instructed.
When Song Huaying heard this, she immediately tried to do it eagerly. She stuck the tree demon core in her hand to her chest.
Soon, she was pleasantly surprised to find a large amount of cool energy surging out of the demon cores and flowing into her body, constantly nourishing it.
“Husband, it’s really useful!”
Song Huaying was pleasantly surprised. It was as if she had discovered a new continent and opened the door to a new world.
As a mortal since she was young, this was the first time she had experienced such a magical feeling.
Chen An smiled and said, “Since it’s useful, I’ll give you all the demon cores on the bed in the future. Use them well and try your best to increase the aptitude of your demon cores.”
After saying this, he put on his clothes, got out of bed, and left the room.
Taking advantage of the fact that it was still early, she planned to go to the room next door to find Gu Xinyue to be intimate.
Otherwise, if he was too energetic and had nothing to do in the tunnel, it was easy to get sick from holding it in.
Time was like an arrow, and the sun and moon were like shuttles.
Unknowingly,
Two months passed.
In these few days.
Other than going outside to get water, Chen An spent the rest of his time with his wives in the tunnel and playing with his daughters.
On this day, they had just finished dinner.
Chen An crossed his legs and let his second daughter sit on it as a seesaw.
At the same time, with a thought, he opened his system interface and checked the attribute data on it.
[Name: Chen An)
[Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Level 8, 8%]
[Alchemy Technique: Beginner Level 3 – 2%]
[Consciousness: Beginner Level 3 – 3%]
[Fire-type Spiritual Root: Top-grade 65%]
[Metal-type Spiritual Root: Top-grade 12%]
[All kinds of techniques: Goldfinger (God-level, 21%), Sleepy Time Spell (Grandmaster, 37%), Shadow Kill (Grandmaster, 23%), Fixed Body Spell (Grandmaster, 11%)…]
[Spouse: Song Huaying (4 stars.78%), Gu Xinyue (4 stars.55%), Wen Zhiyun (4 stars.58%), Shen Qingyi (2 stars.62%)]
[Progeny: Chen Yuejian (3 stars.88%), Chen Yi Ke (1 stars.47%)]
“Hmm?”
“The interface display mode has been updated?”
“It’s much more intuitive.”
Chen An looked at the new interface in front of him and thought to himself that this system was really smart. It could even update itself.
The current system page looked much cleaner. One could see the progress bar of various attributes very directly.
It was no longer a bunch of numbers like before where he had to open them one by one to check.
Chen An glanced at the attributes on it.
Yes, his cultivation had broken through last month to the eighth level of Foundation Establishment.
His alchemy realm and the strength of his divine consciousness had also broken through to Level 3.
Then, his gaze landed on the Fire-type Spiritual Root and the Metal-type Spiritual Root.
Under his hard work day and night, the aptitude of these two spiritual roots had now increased to the “top-grade” level.
The next level was the “Holy” level that he had never heard of.
Unfortunately, no matter how high the spiritual root aptitude was, it would at most increase the upper limit of his cultivation. In terms of cultivation efficiency, it could not increase much.
As the concentration of spiritual energy in the Mountain Sea Region was limited, the efficiency of his absorption of the spiritual energy in the air had already reached the upper limit when he was still a high-grade spiritual root.
Now, if he wanted to increase the efficiency of his cultivation, he could only move to a world with richer spiritual energy.
Simply put, the Mountain Sea Region could not afford to raise a spiritual root with “top-grade” aptitude.
However, what Chen An cared about the most now was not the aptitude of the spiritual root, but the number of prominent spiritual roots.
He wanted to gather the five-element spiritual roots of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.
This way, he would have the qualifications to learn more techniques.
Especially the three Five Elements Escape Techniques that were extremely applicable.
Wood Escape.
Water Escape.
Earth Escape.
If he learned these three escape techniques, he would be even more confident when he went out in the future.
If he encountered an enemy he could not defeat, he would have the ability to escape.
Time passed quickly.
Unknowingly, the night gradually deepened.
At this moment, his two young daughters had already gone to bed to sleep.
They all slept in Wen Zhiyun’s room.
Wen Zhiyun slept with them inside.
Meanwhile, Gu Xinyue was humbly asking for guidance on cultivation in Shen Qingyi’s room.
“Husband, it’s time to rest.”
At this moment, Song Huaying, who was only wearing a sexy undergarment, walked over. She hugged Chen An’s neck with one hand and sat on his lap, looking at him affectionately with her coquettish eyes.
Anyone who knew about this gaze would understand.
Chen An did not waste any time. He picked her up and walked towards the room.
It was late at night. It was time to work.
“Ying’er, have you absorbed all the demon cores of the tree demons I gave you that day?”
In the room, Chen An gently placed Song Huaying on the bed. He suddenly thought of this and asked curiously.
As Song Huaying helped him take off his clothes, she replied in a delicate voice,
“Yes, I’ve already finished absorbing it a few days ago. I feel that the demon core aptitude in my body has improved a lot.”
“How do you feel?”
“In terms of feeling, the speed at which I absorb spiritual qi from the air every day is more than twice as fast as before. Moreover, the total amount of spiritual qi I absorb has increased by almost ten times.”
u
Is it so effective?”
Chen An was a little surprised.
He thought that he had only given his wife more than ten demon cores.
Why did it increase so much after absorbing it?
Song Huaying saw his confusion and gave an uncertain guess. “Husband, could it be that the Flower God’s bloodline is special?”
“Yes, that’s very likely.”
Chen An nodded. He felt that this should be the case if nothing went wrong.
He estimated that the demon core of the tree demon was purely responsible for providing nutrition. As for how much the side that was nurtured could increase, it depended on their own aptitude and body composition.
As for the Flower God Bloodline, these four words sounded very prestigious.
“Husband, don’t dwell on this anymore. I can’t wait any longer.”
Seeing that Chen An seemed to be in deep thought, Song Huaying immediately held his arm and shook it skillfully.
Chen An glanced at this little slut and chose to satisfy her now.
After about half an incense stick of time.
[Alchemy Experience+4, Wood Spiritual Root+4]
[Wood Spiritual Root: Low-grade -4%]
“Hmm?”
Chen An looked at the two notifications that suddenly popped up in front of him and could not help but be stunned.
