Family Cultivation: My entire family are Villains

"About fifty miles in circumference, that is to say, combined with Sikong Yue's half, this Five Elements Heaven is only a maximum of a hundred miles large, it's drastically shrunk!"

Hou Yuxiao stood inside the space of the Five Elements Heaven, observing the dim surroundings. After perceiving the actual size of the space, he sighed slightly. Previously, when entering the Five Elements Heaven, he flew with Zhantai Wuyuan for more than an hour without reaching the end, estimating its size to be at least tens of thousands of miles in circumference. Yet, now it shrunk to merely fifty miles...

Of course, size is not important, it's mainly about its effectiveness!

Hou Yuxiao's pupils slightly contracted, and with a gentle exertion of his legs on the ground, much like before, the ground started to circulate five-colored spiritual light, soon followed by a surge of thick Five Elements spiritual power erupting from below.

Previously when he entered the Five Elements Heaven, by this step, the ground should turn illusory, revealing the situation beneath. But this time it's different — the ground did not become illusory, and only Five Elements spiritual power erupted from underground, gradually forming droplets of crystalline red liquid akin to blood hovering in the air.

Hou Yuxiao reached out to catch a droplet of the red liquid in the air, and upon sensing the thick power of the Five Elements within it, his eyes immediately brightened.

"This Primordial Blood, it turns out to refer to the spiritual liquid formed by condensed Five Elements spiritual power. Although the spiritual power within it is not as refined as when Ni Han was alive, it is still thick enough to greatly enhance ordinary Martial Artists' aptitude and foundation!"

Hou Yuxiao looked at the Primordial Blood floating everywhere, soon encountering a new puzzle.

This Primordial Blood certainly wasn't conjured from nothing, which means materials must be provided within the Five Elements Heaven to produce such Primordial Blood. What are the materials?

He did not spend much time pondering over this question; in fact, recalling his previous escapades from Ni Han's grasp, Hou Yuxiao could guess what the Five Elements Heaven truly needed.

Merit: 52182020

Karmic Obstacle: 321981292

Looking at the values on the Merit Gold Page within his Sea of Consciousness, Hou Yuxiao did not hesitate and directly retrieved a million Merits. The white cloud slowly flew out from the Sea of Consciousness and was sent into the space of the Five Elements Heaven by him.

At the moment the Merit emerged, Hou Yuxiao was instantly stunned.

He clearly transferred only a million Merits, yet suspended before him was not only that cluster of Merit but also a twelve-petal black and white Divine Lotus.

Divine Lotus, it came out on its own?

Not only did it come out on its own, but the eighth white petal of the Divine Lotus lit up!

Hou Yuxiao blinked and confirmed he wasn't mistaken, then was bewildered.

It truly lit up!

He didn't use his Merits, yet the eighth white petal lit on its own.

Before coming to Nanjiang, his Merit value had already reached over three hundred million, but even with such vast Merit, he couldn't light the eighth white petal. Now, entering the Five Elements Heaven, it lit up on its own.

Five Elements Heaven is connected to the Divine Lotus!

This was not Hou Yuxiao's speculation; it was a certainty.

Since the appearance of the Divine Lotus, the Five Elements Heaven began undergoing changes.

Space, initially gray and misty, started to become clearer, with frequent circulation of the Five Elements spirit light on the ground. Though the sky was still gray, it had gained some luster, and looking up, he even felt clouds starting to gather. Although slow, Hou Yuxiao was aware.

The Five Elements Heaven is being repaired by the Divine Lotus!

Hou Yuxiao looked at the Good and Evil Divine Lotus that had accompanied him for ten years, his face full of suspicion and unease. The Five Elements Heaven was Ni Han's body, and the Divine Lotus came from the previous world with him; why would it connect?

Watching the evolving Five Elements Heaven, Hou Yuxiao temporarily suppressed the doubts in his eyes. No matter what, the Divine Lotus was his greatest reliance in this world, bringing him only benefits thus far, making it unnecessary to worry.

Moreover, with the repair of the Five Elements Heaven, it would be himself who reaps the benefits, wouldn't it?

However, he wasn't sure what role the restored Five Elements Heaven would play.

Yet, observing this situation, the function of the eighth white petal should be...

Thoughts drifted for quite a while, and Hou Yuxiao almost forgot to confirm the function of the eighth white petal. But judging from the process of its illumination, it was easy to guess.

Hou Yuxiao and the Divine Lotus were already one, and with a thought, he could know.

The function of the eighth white petal was to fill the Five Elements Heaven with Merit and exchange it for Primordial Blood capable of enhancing Martial Artists' aptitude and foundation.

"Ten thousand Merit for one drop, the price is absurdly high!"

Hou Yuxiao smacked his lips slightly. Although the Hou Clan now controlled a vast territory with a population of fifty million under its rule, greatly improving the rate of gaining Merit, ten thousand Merit was nothing to him. Yet he had to consider that this Primordial Blood was meant for widespread use among soldiers. Just calculating for the current sixty million troops in Hexi, one drop per person would cost sixty billion Merit.

Sixty billion Merit, even when his Merit value was at its peak, he only had three billion.

Moreover, this Primordial Blood is not a one-time thing; as long as there is room for improvement in aptitude, it can be infinitely used, meaning even greater consumption. The unit price of ten thousand Merit is indeed excessively high.

"However, compared to the function, I am still getting a great deal!"

Massive enhancement of Martial path aptitude, something even for the Holy Land is incredibly difficult. Otherwise, the term Holy Land Elite wouldn't exist in Shenzhou.
