Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1792: 456: Invaders from Liang Country, True Spirit Tribulation!

To begin with, the Great Dream Marsh offers a level of stability that far surpasses both Jiuxiao Immortal City and Azure Phoenix Immortal City.

Since the Fourth Rank Beast Tide has only recently concluded, the region is expected to remain free from major disasters for the next century.

Secondly, the recent Beast Tide likely resulted in many island Spirit Veins being overrun by demon beasts or the deaths of their resident cultivators.

Consequently, even for those not seeking to become an Island Master, securing a cave mansion or a Spirit Vein Dojo for Cultivation has become significantly easier.

Thirdly, the presence of Nascent Soul-level combat strength within Great Dream Immortal City ensures a high degree of safety, removing any lingering anxieties.

Furthermore, in the wake of such a massive Beast Tide, the market prices for demon beast materials in the Great Dream Marsh are expected to plummet, providing an excellent opportunity to stock up on resources.

"The Great Dream City Lord, actually hunting down Fourth Rank Demon Kings..."

Despite the benefits, certain high-level cultivators were deeply unsettled by these reports.

Among them was Wanhu True Master, a man who had once dared to challenge the Great Dream City Lord during his youth.

Having faced him personally, he had long understood that the Great Dream City Lord possessed extraordinary combat prowess.

However, he had never imagined the gap would be this staggering.

He was currently torn between traveling to Great Dream Immortal City to offer congratulatory gifts or simply fleeing Jiang Country altogether.

Yet, the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm was currently plagued by hidden dangers and undercurrents, making it far less stable than Jiang Country.

After careful deliberation, and remembering that he had already paid a massive fortune in reparations years ago, he abandoned the idea of a visit. Instead, he resolved to never set foot anywhere the Great Dream City Lord might appear.

Meanwhile, in Great Dream Immortal City.

Ling Zixiao, who had intended to enter closed-door cultivation, found herself occupied with the daily administration of the city.

Reports from Lu Qingsong indicated that the Beast Tide had devastated the Great Dream Marsh, with over ten islands suffering severe damage.

The threat wasn't limited to demon beasts; rogue robber cultivators had also taken advantage of the turmoil to incite chaos.

In response, Ling Zixiao commanded the Enforcement Team to initiate a full-scale purge of these bandits and issued a formal decree banning all conflicts between island factions for the next decade.

Typically, after enduring such heavy losses, a ruler would prioritize recovery and rest for the people.

On this particular day, Lu Lingxiao and Lu Wangshu returned to the city atop the Sea Splitting Mysterious Whale. Under the reverent gazes of the populace, they flew directly toward the City Lord Mansion.

The sight of Lu Wangshu, adorned in a magnificent gilded gown and a matching mask, sparked intense curiosity among the onlookers.

Many wondered if she was another daughter of the City Lord.

"Mother."

"Aunt."

Upon entering the City Lord Mansion, the two greeted Ling Zixiao immediately.

"Xiao’er, Wangshu, you’ve returned? Did your trip prove fruitful?"

Ling Zixiao greeted them with an elegant smile, her demeanor both regal and composed, knowing they had spent months scavenging alongside the Sea Splitting Mysterious Whale.

"The harvest was massive. It was so much that our storage rings were completely filled. We had to store the bulk of it in Big Black’s stomach, and we even had to leave behind several crystal mines because we simply couldn't carry them."

Lu Lingxiao explained.

Despite possessing multiple storage bags and high-quality storage rings,

the sheer volume of their spoils was overwhelming.

Items like demon beast remains, bones, raw ores, and sea stones were incredibly bulky and heavy, quickly exceeding the capacity of standard storage tools.

"I will have Qingsong organize a team to use large-scale storage crates for transport later."

Ling Zixiao knew of Lu Wangshu’s penchant for wealth, so she was certain everything brought back was of high value.

"Understood."

Lu Lingxiao nodded before asking, "Mother, is Father available?"

"Your father is currently in closed-door cultivation. Is something the matter?"

Ling Zixiao could tell her son had an urgent matter for Lu Changsheng.

"Big Black mentioned that its bloodline is reaching a breakthrough point for ascension. It needs to face the True Spirit Tribulation and intends to travel to the Sea Eye to do so. It wanted to know if Father could accompany it."

Lu Lingxiao revealed.

"The True Spirit Tribulation!?"

Ling Zixiao’s eyes widened in astonishment.

She was well aware that demon beast bloodlines were ranked from low to high, followed by Earth Rank, Heaven Rank, and finally the mythic True Spirit Bloodline.

However, she was unfamiliar with the process of ascending to the True Spirit level.

She had never even heard of a True Spirit Tribulation before.

"Yes, we are just as surprised. Big Black claims its bloodline has hit its peak and must survive this tribulation to evolve."

Lu Lingxiao added.

It was only recently that he and Lu Wangshu had learned that a tribulation was a requirement for a demon beast to reach the True Spirit rank.

"I will notify your father at once."

Lu Changsheng had left instructions to be disturbed if any significant events occurred during his seclusion.

In Ling Zixiao’s eyes, the potential bloodline ascension of the Sea Splitting Mysterious Whale was a matter of the highest importance.

Deep within a rear hall of the Mansion, inside the massive carcass of a Void Kun, Lu Changsheng sat in meditation. His form was enveloped in a mixture of sacred Buddha Light and dark Demon Runes.

The life essence and Origin Essence of the Void Kun flowed around him like a torrential river, manifesting as spectral Kun fish that crashed against his body. This energy was refined into a dense red mist that seeped into his skin, strengthening his physique and tempering his Dantian and organs.

Lu Changsheng’s blood thundered through his veins. His presence was a paradox—simultaneously holy and dignified, yet radiating a terrifying, primal malice. It was a state of contradictory harmony, much like the balance of Yin and Yang, reaching a level of profound complexity.

The "Brahma Demon True Sacred Art" required the practitioner to cultivate both Buddha and Demon paths simultaneously, maintaining a perfect equilibrium between the two conflicting mentalities.

Fortunately, Lu Changsheng’s "Yin Yang Creation Classic" allowed him to bridge these gaps, using the Laws of Yin and Yang to master the true essence of both paths. Without it, maintaining his sanity under such conflicting influences would have been nearly impossible.

"Hmm?"

Lu Changsheng suddenly felt a disturbance and opened his eyes. His pupils rotated slowly, resembling a swastika, while dark demon flames flickered within his gaze.

"The Sea Splitting Mysterious Whale is ready to ascend? It actually requires a True Spirit Tribulation?"

Upon reading Ling Zixiao’s message, Lu Changsheng’s brow furrowed in thought.

Even though Ling Zixiao and Lu Lingxiao were unaware of the specifics of the True Spirit Tribulation, he understood its significance.

He hadn't expected the beast to require a heavenly trial to evolve into a Sea Splitting Mysterious Dragon Whale.

The timing was unexpected.

Nevertheless, the whale’s progress had been far swifter than he had projected.

Without hesitation, Lu Changsheng stood up and exited the Void Kun’s carcass.
