297: Chapter 298 Nine-Treasure Exquisite Bone!

He closed his eyes, his Divine Sense sinking into the System panel to check carefully.

Sure enough, in that long list of offspring, many names originally marked as "Not Cultivating" had now quietly changed to "Qi Refining Level 1" or "Qi Refining Level 2."

An indescribable sense of relief welled up in Ye Changge's heart.

His children were starting to grow up.

That child Ye Bufan went without saying; he had entered the Qi Refining Stage long ago, and now had a Minor Achievement in the Kunpeng Refining Art. His blood energy was so vigorous that he didn't seem like a seven or eight-year-old child.

The older children, Ye Zhi, Ye Xiu, and Ye Ruyi, had also stepped onto the path of cultivation one after another under the supervision of their respective mothers.

Even many of the illegitimate children born to concubines, whom he usually looked after less, had successfully drawn Qi into their bodies.

Twenty of them...

Ye Changge felt a surge of emotion.

This meant that his "Lie Flat Cultivation Plan" was one step closer.

According to the System's mechanism, the more offspring he had and the higher their cultivation, the greater the feedback rewards he would receive.

In the future, when dozens or even hundreds of offspring were cultivating simultaneously, providing him with Spiritual Qi feedback day and night—

Then even if he lay at home every day doing nothing, his cultivation would soar!

At this thought, the corners of Ye Changge's mouth couldn't help but curve upward slightly.

Furthermore, this time it was actually an Advanced Gacha chance!

He remembered very clearly what he had drawn during the last Advanced Gacha—

A Tier 4 True Spirit, the mysterious willow tree that could take root deep within Longmai Mountain.

That was an existence equivalent to a Nascent Soul Cultivator!

Although with his current cultivation he couldn't fully activate the True Spirit's full power, its effects of taking root in Longmai Mountain, suppressing Luck for him, and nourishing the Spiritual Vein were already priceless treasures.

What could he draw from this Advanced Gacha?

Ye Changge couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.

He took a deep breath, composed himself, and let his consciousness sink into the System space.

A light screen appeared before his eyes, and the familiar golden Great Roulette slowly manifested.

On the roulette, there were still those few areas—

Cultivation Techniques, Medicinal Pills, Magical Artifacts, Spirit Pets, Exotic Treasures...

Every area radiated an alluring glow.

Without hesitation, Ye Changge made a move with his mind.

[Gacha Start!]

The golden Great Roulette spun rapidly, the pointer jumping quickly between the various areas.

Ye Changge stared unblinkingly at the roulette, his heart rate slightly accelerating.

Finally—

The roulette's speed slowly decreased.

The pointer wobbled, passing the "Cultivation Technique" area, the "Medicinal Pill" area, and the "Magical Artifact" area...

At last, it came to a steady stop at—

[Exotic Treasure]!

[Ding!]

[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Tier 4 Spirit Treasure—Nine Treasure Exquisite Bone!]

A Tier 4 Spirit Treasure!

Ye Changge's heart leaped with joy.

It sounded very powerful just from the name!

He hurriedly clicked on the System description, and lines of golden text appeared in his mind—

—

[Nine Treasure Exquisite Bone]

[Rank: Tier 4 Spirit Treasure]

[Category: Exotic Treasure · Bone Type]

[Introduction: Refined over ten thousand years through a secret method by an ancient powerhouse using the spinal bones of nine types of Heaven and Earth exotic beasts, supplemented by Astral Essence and Yin-Yang Qi. This treasure is sentient and can be integrated into the Host's bones to become an Innate Spirit Bone, growing along with the Host.]

[Detailed Functions:]

[1. Exquisite Body Protection: Passively activated, it forms an invisible shield around the Host that can withstand the full-force attack of a Core Formation Cultivator. The shield's strength increases with the Host's cultivation, up to resisting a single strike from the Early Stage of the Nascent Soul.]

[2. Nine Treasure Divine Light: Actively activated, it releases nine-colored divine light that can be used for both offense and defense. In offense, it is indestructible and can break through a Core Formation Cultivator's protective spiritual light; in defense, it is as solid as a fortress and can block sieges from Cultivators of the same rank.]

[3. Blood Energy Augmentation: Passively increases the Host's blood energy, doubling the Body Refining effect. Bone strength, physical resilience, and recovery speed are all comprehensively improved.]

...

The more Ye Changge read, the brighter his eyes became.

Offense, defense, healing, augmentation, Clones, breaking illusions...

The nine major functions covered almost everything!

With this Nine Treasure Exquisite Bone, his combat power would undergo a qualitative leap.

However—

Ye Changge looked at that line of remarks, his brow twitching slightly.

A Tier 4 Spirit Treasure, logically speaking, should be something that only those at the level of a Nascent Soul True Lord could refine.

For an ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivator, let alone refining it, just touching it could cause their Physical Body to collapse.

But...

Ye Changge's heart stirred.

He thought of his Kunpeng Refining Art.

This Heaven Rank Body Refining Cultivation Technique, after breaking through the seventh level, also unlocked a companion Divine Ability—

Treasure Bone Art!

Its function was precisely to refine various Magic Treasures onto one's own bones, allowing the Magic Treasure and the Physical Body to merge into one.

In this way, even if the Host's cultivation was insufficient, they could use the power of their Physical Body to exert part of the Magic Treasure's power.

A sharp light flashed in Ye Changge's eyes.

Wasn't this Nine Treasure Exquisite Bone tailor-made for the Treasure Bone Art?

He could refine it into his main bone, allowing it to completely integrate into his body.

This way, even if he was only a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, he could still activate part of the power of this Tier 4 Spirit Treasure!

"This method is very feasible."

Ye Changge made a decision in his heart.

He took a deep breath, just about to continue studying the refining details of the Nine Treasure Exquisite Bone—

Suddenly, a strange fluctuation of spiritual power came from his arms.

Ye Changge frowned and looked down.

The aura around Lu Shiyin was climbing at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Spiritual Qi was like a hundred rivers returning to the sea, frantically surging into her body!

Deep within her Dantian, that taiyi heavy water Dao Seed emitted a dazzling light, and strands of mysterious Dao charm spread from her body, resonating with the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi!
