Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1875: 485: Encounter with the Shadow Sect Again, Whalebone Banquet!
Previously on Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family...
The incarnation of the Three Treasures set off to see his daughter Lu Wangshu, as his other offspring lingered by his true body, conversing with Hong Lian and Ling Zixiao.
In that moment, Lu Changsheng abruptly recalled how, amid his advancement to Fourth Rank Body Refinement, ten descendants in his household attained Foundation Establishment, unlocking a lottery draw for him, and he inwardly commanded: "System, draw."
[Ding! Congratulations host for getting a Magical Treasure: Bi Luo Jade Light Fan!]
[Reward has been delivered to the System Space, host can check it at any time]
A striking fan resembling a peacock, glowing with profound azure sheen, materialized on the lottery wheel.
Lu Changsheng cast a quick look at it.
Middle Grade Magical Treasure.
When unleashed, it summons Bi Luo Jade Light to blind foes' souls, or unleashes Bi Luo Heavenly Wind to flay their skin, or grants swift wind escape for fleeing.
Undoubtedly, it's an elite Magical Treasure.
Yet for Lu Changsheng, that's all it amounted to.These days, a standard lottery pull offered little thrill unless fortune smiled extraordinarily with a supreme Exotic Treasure or rare Heavenly and Earthly Treasures; beyond Cultivation Techniques, items like other Cultivation Techniques, Magical Treasures, and Elixirs held no value for him anymore.
"Time passes in a blur."
Lu Changsheng gazed upon the [Bi Luo Jade Light Fan] stored in the System Space, a wave of nostalgia washing over him.
He could still vividly recall his early days on the cultivation journey, when acquiring a Magical Treasure meant it sat unused, dusted off only for training in the "Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art."
Almost a century later, such Magical Treasures seemed trivial, shatterable by a single fist, serving merely as aids for his spouses and heirs.
At the same time, the Three Treasures Incarnation reached the quaint courtyard of his daughter Lu Wangshu.
A youthful lady clad in a pink-and-white gown, her face exquisitely refined like a masterpiece, sat idly with her chin propped on one hand, idly twirling a Talisman Brush.
The gleaming platinum Third Rank Talisman Brush danced nimbly in her graceful fingers, akin to a fluttering butterfly in flight.
Spotting the Three Treasures Incarnation in his verdant robe, her eyes lit up with delight, and she cried out happily: "Dad, you've finished your tasks!"
"Hmm."
Great Dream Immortal City fell under Lu Changsheng’s Divine Sense coverage, rendering the Three Treasures Incarnation indistinguishable from his primary form—merely handling multiple duties at once.
He extended a hand to gently stroke his daughter's silky, gem-like forehead, remarking: "I told you to focus on spirit talismans and spiritual patterns while at home, so why do you keep zoning out like this."
"Hmph, I was simply fretting over you!"
Lu Wangshu scrunched her nose, shooting her father a mildly irritated glance, before seriously inquiring: "Dad, did you truly overcome that Nascent Soul True Lord?"
"What Nascent Soul True Lord?"
Lu Changsheng pretended not to know.
"Don't fool me, I've heard the tales already—recently, the Vast Sand Illusion Realm activated...."
Lu Wangshu rose with elegant poise, her refined chin curved like a slender moon, tilted upward like a proud swan.
"What does True Master Yangming beating a Nascent Soul True Lord have to do with me? Get back to your talisman practice."
Lu Changsheng stated plainly, then examined his daughter's grasp of the "Ninety-Nine Mystical Talisman Scripture" and Third Rank Talismans.
Noticing her persistent curiosity, he promised to reveal details only if she succeeded.
Lu Wangshu's aptitude in the Talisman Path had always proven reliable, never letting him down.
Were it not for her current cultivation stage, she could effortlessly craft a Third Rank Middle Grade Talisman.
Moreover, her insight into the eighty-one distinctive spiritual patterns from the "Ninety-Nine Mystical Talisman Scripture" had advanced to Core Formation standards.
Her immediate goal was to surge to Foundation Establishment Peak, laying groundwork for the Immortal Golden Core.
Typically, her Spiritual Root Talent, bolstered by the Blood Talisman Spiritual Body and "Ninety-Nine Mystical Talisman Scripture," rendered the Immortal Golden Core a tough feat.
However, armed with the Coagulation Crystal Elixir, Five Elements Spirit Fruit, and an array of Heavenly and Earthly Treasures amassed by Lu Changsheng, success was assured with dedicated effort and time.
"Dad, how did I fare?"
After succeeding, Lu Wangshu's lovely features bloomed into a captivating, assured grin, stray locks of hair draping whimsically over her brow, lending her an extra spark of vitality.
"Excellent, excellent—my little Wangshu fairy is the brightest of them all."
Lu Changsheng replied with a warm smile.
"Dad, you keep babying me like I'm still small."
Lu Wangshu huffed lightly in frustration, then pressed for news from the Vast Sand Illusion Realm.
Though as his child, she knew better than to pry deeply into her father's affairs,
learning he had endangered himself for some outsider woman left her uneasy and distressed, compelling her to voice her worries.
"The Secret Realm held no real threats; I picked up on your brother's peril and stumbled into the Vast Sand Illusion Realm by chance, forcing me to intervene."
Lu Changsheng, sensing her true concerns, answered with gentle affection.
"Brother?"
Sudden realization dawned on Lu Wangshu, piecing together the events.
Grasping the full picture and confirming her father emerged unscathed contrary to whispers, relief flooded her, leading her to probe: "Then, what's the story with Azure Phoenix True Monarch?"
"Inside the Secret Realm, she aided me, and since I bear grudges against Ming Sha True Monarch and Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch, helping her was the obvious choice."
Lu Changsheng lightly tapped his daughter's sleek forehead, signaling that such grown-up issues were beyond a child's scope.
"I told you, stop poking my head."
Lu Wangshu whined playfully, before quizzing her father on any fitting treasures he claimed this round, and reminding him of the Fourth Rank talisman he vowed to make for her.
Lu Lingxiao, immersed in cultivation within the Immortal City over recent years, never wanted for supplies, and under Hong Lian's tutelage, her growth soared, nearing Foundation Establishment Peak.
Even accounting for the need to consolidate before Core Formation over several years, breakthrough to Core Formation lay within a decade at most.
While her emphasis on the Talisman Path had capped her at Foundation Establishment Seventh Layer Peak, Core Formation felt far off.
"It's merely that I'm swamped right now. On this outing, your father gathered plenty of Fourth-tier resources, allowing me to craft a fitting Fourth Rank Spirit Talisman just for you—though you'll need to hold on a little longer."
