Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 656 - 280: Return to the Fief, Passing of an Immortal, Spirit Body’s Effects

Fu Changsheng shook off the strange emotions in his heart.

Thump, thump, thump, he went up to the third floor.

He still had a few important matters to inquire with Grandmaster Yu.

He arrived at the door.

With a creak.

The door opened automatically.

Inside the room.

It was filled with various complex array patterns, as Grandmaster Yu was researching some complicated ancient array.

"Uncle Yu, this time I went to North Huai Prefecture and brought you a few bottles of good wine, try them,"

he said.

With a wave of his sleeve,

suddenly six bottles of different Tier Two spirit wines floated to Grandmaster Yu. Upon smelling the aroma of the wine, Grandmaster Yu, who was originally focused on studying the array plate, immediately put it aside and eagerly opened the bottles to taste each one.

Smacking his lips, he said:

"This spirit wine is quite authentic, much richer than what that lad Changli brewed."

After Fu Changli entered the Foundation Establishment Stage, as the number of his descendants increased, he became entangled with various trivial affairs and could no longer dedicate himself to researching winemaking as he did in his youth. Or perhaps his talent had reached its limit, unable to produce higher-tier spirit wines.

So,

the variety of spirit wines of the Fu family had not been updated for a long time.

This caused the old customers, who originally only drank their family’s spirit wines, to slowly start visiting other taverns.

The business at Fu Family Restaurant had shown signs of decline.

This was inevitable.

Grandmaster Yu wiped away the wine from the corner of his mouth, glanced at Fu Changsheng, who seemed hesitant to speak, and teased: "What? You’ve become estranged from this old man after a few years in North Huai Prefecture."

Fu Changsheng withdrew his gaze from the ring on his neck.

He planned to discuss this matter later.

Instead, he said:

"Uncle Yu, could you introduce me to the concept of spirit bodies, and if a spirit body has not awakened, how can external conditions be used to awaken the cultivator?"

Grandmaster Yu was quite surprised and glanced at Fu Changsheng.

After pondering for a while,

he said:

"As far as I know, spirit bodies are divided into acquired and innate. The difference between the two is quite literal, and these spirit bodies are classified from Tier One to Nine based on their cultivation speed."

"If my guess is correct,

"your adopted son Fu Yongyi is an acquired spirit body. It’s because he consumed some kind of heavenly material or treasure that gave him a natural sensitivity to spirit ores. These types of spirit bodies are acquired."

"Acquired spirit bodies are generally between Tier One to Three, rarely reaching Tier Four. Fu Yongyi should have a Tier One Stone Spirit Body. His cultivation speed is significantly faster than those with Three Spiritual Roots but lags slightly behind those with Dual Spiritual Roots."

Fu Changsheng realized,

no wonder This child Yongyi’s cultivation speed surged during the Qi Refining Stage, but seemed to slow down when he reached Foundation Establishment.

So it turned out to be the lowest Tier One acquired spirit body.

Nevertheless,

compared to others, he can still be considered a talented individual.

Fu Changsheng then asked about innate spirit bodies, but Grandmaster Yu waved his hand and said:

"Innate spirit bodies in your remote area of Jingzhou might not be found. When you find them someday, I will elaborate more."

"Uncle Yu, please wait a moment."

Fu Changsheng immediately sent a message to Fu Molan, asking her to bring Fu Yongwei and Niu Chunxiu together.

Grandmaster Yu blinked:

"Young Fu, did you find an innate spirit body in North Huai Prefecture?"

"Uncle Yu, you’ll find out in a moment."

Fu Changsheng himself was unsure, so he dared not speak recklessly.

After a while,

Fu Yongwei and Niu Chunxiu were brought in.

Grandmaster Yu’s eyelid twitched.

Could it be that these innate spirit bodies come in pairs?

Grandmaster Yu swiftly sent a technique into Fu Yongwei and Niu Chunxiu’s bodies, only to see Niu Chunxiu’s body tremble slightly. Then, a cold Yin energy burst out from within, while Fu Yongwei showed no change whatsoever.

Fu Changsheng noticed the contemplative look in Grandmaster Yu’s eyes.

He said to Fu Yongwei and Niu Chunxiu:

"Yongwei, it’s done. You two can leave for now."

"Yes, Patriarch."

The two of them exchanged a glance, full of confusion, not understanding why the Patriarch suddenly summoned them. However, both sensed an aura from Grandmaster Yu that was even stronger than the Patriarch’s, leaving them quite shocked.

They never imagined.

That the Fu family still had a Great Cultivator of the Purple Mansion.

Now it seemed,

being able to enter the Fu family was clearly a great opportunity for them.

After the two left the room,

and the array was closed,

Fu Changsheng impatiently asked:

"Uncle Yu, are Yongwei and Chunxiu innate or acquired spirit bodies?"

Grandmaster Yu uncorked his wine gourd, took a sip, and smacked his lips before slowly saying: "That girl Yongwei has a latent Plant Spirit Body, but it’s acquired, same tier as Yongyi, a Tier One Spirit Body."

Fu Changsheng was taken aback.

He thought Yongwei had an innate spirit body, but it seems that Yongwei endured so much hardship in North Huai Prefecture and, by chance, acquired some spiritual objects, thus forming an acquired spirit body:

"Uncle Yu, what about Chunxiu?"

"Chunxiu has a Pure Yin Body, which is indeed an innate spirit body. However, it doesn’t benefit her much; although practicing Yin Attribute Technique will be faster, it’s still a bit inferior to Dual Spiritual Roots. Its greatest advantage is preserving her Primordial Yin. When she reaches the Golden Core stage, her Primordial Yin will become an excellent spiritual pill for cultivators to break through to the Nascent Soul. Therefore, this spirit body, overall, is classified as Tier Two."

He paused for a moment.

Grandmaster Yu seemed to recall something.

He added:

"Oh, by the way, your newly-wed twin daughters-in-law have the Dragon Assistant Body, also innate, yet even inferior to the Pure Yin Body. They only assist male cultivators with cultivation, with some miraculous effects, and are classified as Tier One. Moreover, their spirit bodies haven’t awakened yet."
