Becoming a true immortal through my descendents' praying

Yang Genshuo naturally wouldn't let Lin Yue stay with him, as there were too many secrets here, making it unsuitable for anyone to live.

After hailing a ride to send Lin Yue away, Yang Genshuo returned to his study. Time in the game still flowed normally, and Yang Shi was engrossed in studying the vernacular Chinese version of "The Art of War by Sun Tzu."

He had been busy most of the day and was worried about potential accidents occurring within the game while he was away from home.

"The Yang Family's foundation is still too weak. One careless move, and it could be total annihilation."

"I must rush to ensure the Yang Family has some descendants."

"Just to be clear, I am very, very fond of Yang Shi, even if he can't cultivate. But for a family... having only one commanding officer is still inadequate."

"Xiaobai will come of age in another year; by then... just keep on striving to create more."

When he first saw Jiang Xiaobai's talents, he had already decided on this marriage, letting them cultivate a relationship for four years, which would naturally lead to marriage.

Last year, Yang Shi learned a lot from Liu Wuheng, who knew far more than shopkeeper Liao. Liu Wuheng was a treasure trove of knowledge about immortal cultivation and had researched it deeply.

Shopkeeper Liao once told Yang Shi that Liu Wuheng was no ordinary innate grandmaster.

Yang Genshuo agreed wholeheartedly, believing Liu Wuheng must have had an encounter with immortality.

Among the things shared by Liu Wuheng, one piece of common knowledge from the Immortal Cultivation World confirmed Yang Genshuo's previous guess.

It was nearly impossible for two mortals to have a child with a Spirit Root.

At least one of the parents must possess a Spirit Root in order for their offspring to potentially inherit one.

So, everything was proceeding as Yang Genshuo had planned.

Activate acceleration.

Day and night passed in the Immortal Cultivation World, starting the fourth year of evolution.

[In the 3 years and 50 days, Yang Shi's entire skeleton resonated, achieving great success in Bone Training! Coupled with the Qi Nourishing Heart Method from "Mingxin Technique", he successfully broke through to the sixth level of Body Refining: Inner Power Infusion.]

[The martial virtue of the Yang Family increased, Incense Fire Value +60.]

[Acquired a new Blessing—Calming Heart: Calms the mind quickly, slightly increases comprehension, 2 Incense Fire Value/person/day.]

[Because of the Traits of "Mingxin Technique," Yang Shi's Talent has undergone slight changes...]

50 days into the game, something fresh occurred.

"A new Blessing that improves mental state and comprehension, 2 Incense Fire Values a day, not bad. The final five levels of Body Refining are for Qi Cultivation, which will come in handy during cultivation."

"Hmm... this can also be used on Xiaobai; for a Cultivator, comprehension is even more crucial, right?"

[Use Blessing: Calming Heart on "Yang Shi."]

[Use Blessing: Calming Heart on "Jiang Xiaobai."]

A strand of golden light entered the manor and descended upon the heads of the two people, instantly clearing their minds, as if they saw through many things.

Having experience, Yang Shi directly said, "This is a blessing from our Yang Family's ancestors, Xiaobai, you should quickly thank the old ancestor."

"Xiaobai thanks the old ancestor~"

Yang Shi, however, was pensive.

'The old ancestor's blessing of Shi means... he recognizes Xiaobai?'

He glanced again at Jiang Xiaobai, who was developing well and had grown into a young lady, his face turning slightly unnatural. He turned his head away and began to sit with crossed legs to cultivate the "Mingxin Technique."

Under the aid of [Calming Heart], the previously constipated and incomprehensible parts were swept away by a torrent of vast inspiration!

Inspiration like a diarrhea outbreak!

Enlightenment on the spot, "Mingxin Technique" proficiency swiftly rose!

Seeing this state, Yang Genshuo hit him with another [Blessing: Vitality], stimulating his brain with a high metabolism to become more energetic.

At this moment, Yang Shi's character card had undergone significant changes compared to two years ago.

[Name: Yang Shi]

[Identity: The sole heir of the Yang Family, owner of the Yang's Board Game Tea House, lord of Yang Family's Manor.]

[Life Span: 21/71]

[Realm: Body Refining Realm sixth level]

[Spirit Root: None]

[Comprehension: 30（↑）]

[Qi Fortune: 10]

[Talent: Fun-seeker (Mortal Level), Bittersweet (+) (Mortal Level)]

[Skill: Basic Boxing Skill (Refining Fire), Dog Beating Stick Technique (Refining Fire), Lightning Hundred Whips (Making Progress), Traceless Sword Technique (Roughly Understand), Mingxin Technique (Beginner)]

[Status: Spiritual Energy Threshold Body, Calming Heart, Vitality, Pleasure.]

"My life span increased by 1 year, is this the effect of eating Spirit Rice for half a year... Not bad, keep eating, aim to live to 100."

"[Calming Heart] can increase comprehension by 10 points, really good!"

From 20 points to 30, that's a 50% increase, and Yang Shi already had better comprehension than ordinary people, now it's even more outstanding."

The changes in the talent section came as a bit of a surprise to Yang Genshuo.

"[Bittersweet] has a plus sign now?"

[Bittersweet+ (Mortal Level): The efficiency of actions will fluctuate significantly with mood, happy mood +25%, low mood -25% (Affected by the Mingxin Technique)]

This talent has actually upgraded!

"It used to fluctuate by 20%, now it's up to 25%. If I can maintain a good mood, that's a 5% increase in martial arts training efficiency, and it's permanent, not bad at all!"

"I remember Liao Cao saying that successful cultivation of a Superior Heart Method can bring about special abilities, such as the Domineering Technique, which after completion gives one muscles as hard as iron and immense strength. Liu Wuheng's Mingxin Technique strengthens existing talents... each has its own advantages."

Yang Shi's approach wasn't about being fiercely aggressive, so initially, he chose Liu Wuheng's Mingxin Technique and gave the one-track-minded brawler Hu Zi the Domineering Technique to train in.

Time continued to flow.

Under the fourfold boost of [Spiritual Energy Threshold Body]+[Vitality]+[Calming Heart]+[Bittersweet+], Yang Shi's cultivation speed was extremely fast!

Even Liu Wuheng praised him as having the posture of a grandmaster.

As for this, Yang Genshuo had only four words to describe it: Pay to change fate.

[3 years 66 days, Liu Wuheng, along with his daughter Liu Zihan, came to the Yang Family's Manor and suggested that Yang Shi and his daughter, being of similar ages, should get to know each other better. Liu Zihan, 20 this year, was beautiful and full of grace after recovering her health. Her eyes always carried a warm affection when looking at Yang Shi. Jiang Xiaobai's spirit beast, Little Fire, scared Liu Zihan to tears.]

[3 years 76 days, a person from the headquarter of Treasure Pavilion came asking if Liao Cao had encountered a swordsman from the Ge Family. Liao Cao said he had not seen any such person, and the maker of the Grain Avoidance Cakes had also moved out of Qingshi County under persuasion and disappeared without a trace. The headquarter's representative reminded Liao Cao not to get involved with the Ge Family's karma, fearing it could lead to fatal trouble.]

"Brother Yang, it seems the Ge Family still suspects us. If an Immortal comes to punish us, what shall we do?"

"Do not panic. You only need to insist that you've never seen the swordsman, and that's it. My master said that even cultivators at the Qi Cultivation Stage aren't omniscient and omnipotent. Do not be flustered. Without evidence, the cultivators from the Ge Family won't strike against you, a mere branch shopkeeper of Treasure Pavilion, especially since you're still a mortal."

In any country, the slaughter of mortals by cultivators is taboo.

Even more so for well-known Immortal Cultivation Families, who would be concerned about their family's reputation.

You must understand that not everyone in your Ge Family's descendants are cultivators; most of them are mortals.

The deeds you do today could be justifiably mirrored by other cultivators upon your Ge Family's mortal descendants in the future.

This was one of the rules of the Cultivation World that Liu Wuheng told Yang Shi.

However, there is one exception to this rule—a Precelestial Grandmaster.
