Chapter 1598 Emergence from Seclusion, Tremendous Changes in the Family
After Liu Changxu comprehended the new "Red Lotus Immortal Scripture," he did not rush to leave seclusion but chose to stay in the secret chamber and immediately begin to cultivate it.
This new cultivation method is a top-tier Dao-level technique that directly points to the Great Dao, and its profoundness far surpasses that of the old method.
It not only supported his cultivation to the perfect state of Taiyi Golden Immortal, but also laid a more solid foundation for the cultivation method of deducing the state of Daluo Golden Immortal.
He sat cross-legged and slowly circulated the new Red Lotus Immortal Scripture within his body.
At the beginning of his transformation, his magical power was still somewhat sluggish. The Daoist principles of the old and new methods collided and blended in his meridians, and he occasionally felt a slight stinging pain. However, he remained calm and focused on guiding his magical power to rebuild its foundation according to the new method.
Each time the body circulates through the body, the old cultivation is completely melted away like melting snow. Then, under the framework of the new cultivation method, it is condensed into purer and more in line with the Great Dao.
This kind of transformation, seemingly peaceful, is in fact a complete reshaping of the foundation of cultivation, with danger and opportunity coexisting.
Liu Changxu immersed himself in the process, letting time slip away quietly as his magical power flowed, waiting for the day he would emerge from his cocoon and reach new heights of strength.
On the morning of August 10th, in the year 38730 of the Great Qi Immortal Calendar, more than two hundred years had passed since Liu Changxu went into seclusion.
At this moment, in a council hall of the Cloud Palace, seven women—Xiao Yu, Huang Yuyao, Huang Yuqiang, Huang Yuwei, Gao Xin, Murong Xue, and Murong Yue—sat together, drinking tea and discussing clan affairs.
Over the course of two hundred years, apart from Xiao Yu, whose cultivation level has not broken through, the other six women have all made significant breakthroughs in their cultivation.
Huang Yuyao, Huang Yuqiang, and Huang Yuwei all broke through to the Mahayana stage in cultivation. Huang Yuyao and Huang Yuwei advanced to the peak of the mid-Middle Mahayana stage, while Huang Yuwei reached the peak of the early-Middle Mahayana stage.
Gao Xin has broken through to the peak of the Integration stage, and is only one step away from breaking through to the Tribulation stage.
Even the two sisters, Murong Xue and Murong Yue, who had the lowest cultivation levels, had advanced to the Perfect Refinement stage and were about to break through to the Integration stage.
Of course, the key to the six women's rapid breakthrough speed lies in the large number of high-level spiritual items that Liu Changxu left behind before his seclusion.
"Sister Xiao, why is it that my husband has been in seclusion for such a long time this time?!"
After taking a sip of the spiritual tea, Huang Yuqiang couldn't help but ask:
"My husband is in seclusion this time to comprehend and refine the cultivation technique, so it's not surprising that the seclusion will last a long time!"
Xiao Yu soothed him gently:
"But a super beast tide is brewing deep in the Great Wilderness! If the super beast tide really breaks out, we won't be able to stop it without my husband to guard it!"
Huang Yuyao also spoke up:
"Sisters, don't worry! Even if a super beast tide comes, the mountain-protecting formation will protect our family!"
Xiao Yu spoke firmly:
“Sister Xiao, our Liu family is not afraid of the threat of the beast tide, but the Great Qi and Great Chu Immortal Dynasties do not have the strength. Moreover, they have always been on good terms with our Liu family. If they ask us for help, we can’t just stand by and watch them be destroyed!”
At this moment, Gao Xin, who was standing to the side, spoke up in a somewhat urgent tone:
Xiao Yu understood that Gao Xin was worried about the safety of her family after hearing her words. However, she knew that her husband's seclusion was extremely important and he should not be disturbed unless it was a critical moment for the survival of the family.
Therefore, Xiao Yu said with a serious expression: "My husband's seclusion this time is very important. Unless it is a critical moment for the life and death of the family, you must not disturb him!"
If the beast tide breaks out and the two great immortal realms of Qi and Chu plead for our help, we will naturally not ignore them. We can accept some of their people to take refuge in Cloud Sky Immortal City!
"Okay, Sister Xiao!"
Although Gao Xin felt reluctant, she didn't say anything more.
Xiao Yu's gaze swept over the women, and she said in a solemn tone:
"Sisters, although the mountain-protecting formation can safeguard us, we must be fully prepared for the super beast tide. Pass down the order to immediately notify all Liu family members who are training or on business outside, and tell them to return to the mountain immediately without delay!"
"We obey!"
Huang Yuyao, Huang Yuqiang, Gao Xin and the others responded in unison and got up to make the arrangements.
Just then, a hazy light and shadow quietly appeared beside Xiao Yu!
The sudden movement startled all the women, who instinctively took a half-step back, their eyes filled with astonishment.
When the women realized that the man was their husband, whom they had been longing for day and night, the astonishment on their faces instantly turned into undisguised joy.
"My husband! You've finally emerged from seclusion!"
Xiao Yu was the first to react, her voice filled with barely suppressed joy.
Liu Changxu smiled slightly and said:
"This seclusion has indeed been quite long, I'm sorry to have worried you. I just came out of seclusion and heard you discussing the beast tide, it seems I arrived just in time."
"My lord, your return from the pass is perfectly timed! With you here, I can finally rest assured!"
Xiao Yu said with a smile:
"What is the current situation in the depths of this great wilderness? How much do you know about it?"
Liu Changxu's gaze swept over the women, and he asked with great concern:
Xiao Yu stepped forward and replied solemnly:
"My lord, I am not yet aware of the specific changes in the depths of the Great Wilderness. But from the scattered news from various sources, it seems that countless demonic beasts are currently surging out from the depths of the Great Wilderness and migrating madly towards our human territory. Judging from the scale, it is probably far greater than any previous beast tide."
Huang Yuqiang picked up the conversation and added:
“A few days ago, I received news from the Great Chu Immortal Dynasty that several human immortal cities near the edge of the Great Wilderness have been attacked by small-scale beast tides.”
Gao Xin frowned and said:
"My lord, news has just come from Father that several small-scale beast tides are approaching the border of the Great Qi Immortal Dynasty and have caused considerable casualties to our human people."
Xiao Yu said in a similarly serious tone:
"My lord, I recently ventured deep into the Great Wilderness to investigate and discovered that within half a month at most, our Cloud Soaring Mountain will also face a small-scale beast tide! However, according to my investigation, this beast tide is not capable of threatening the protective array of Cloud Soaring Mountain for the time being!"
"Well, that's good! I'll go to the depths of the Great Wilderness myself in a few days!"
Liu Changxu thought for a moment and said:
"My husband, the children miss you very much, you have been in seclusion for so long!"
Furthermore, during the more than two hundred years that you were in seclusion, most of your children have married and given you more than a thousand grandchildren.
And these grandchildren have all started their own families and have given you tens of thousands of great-grandchildren.
To this day, my Liu family has multiplied for eight generations, with a total population of over eighty million.
Huang Yuyao introduced with a smile:
Hearing his wife's description, Liu Changxu, though somewhat prepared, was still deeply shocked. He hadn't expected such a dramatic change from his single period of seclusion, and he was filled with emotion.
