Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1880: 486: Chaos Wanxiang, Shocking Everyone!

Nevertheless, Lu Changsheng required three additional gourds of Fourth Rank Essence Blood or comparable substitutes to complete his needs.
"Alright."
The cost of the Fourth Rank Soul Nourishing Wood greatly surpassed the Mystical Iron's value, a fair assessment in Lu Changsheng's view, leading him to agree with a nod.
Consequently, the exchanges proceeded one after another. In the midst of this, the incarnation known as Changsheng True Master, one of the Three Treasures, naturally participated in deals, swapping more than ten high-quality and superior Third Rank Talismans for items like Coagulation Crystal Elixirs, Core Formation Spiritual Objects, Third Rank Demon Pills, and Heaven-replenishing Fungus—precious elixirs known to improve the Spiritual Root.
Given Absolute Sword True Monarch's attendance, Lu Changsheng couldn't acquire Coagulation Crystal Elixirs or Heaven-replenishing Fungus, those esteemed Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, while posing as the Great Dream City Lord. Thus, it became Lu Changsheng's role to handle such purchases.
"Has this Changsheng True Master, who's only reached Core Formation two decades ago, truly advanced to crafting Third Rank Top Level Talismans already?"
While the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family and Changsheng True Master hold considerable fame within the Jiang Country Cultivation Realm, beyond the Four Great Immortal Sects, various other factions and independent cultivators have largely overlooked him.
Therefore, observing this exchange left the onlookers genuinely astonished.
Regardless of the location, elixirs, talismans, and magical treasures remain highly sought after. Acquiring Core Formation Spiritual Objects proved straightforward, yet securing Coagulation Crystal Elixirs and Third Rank Demon Pills posed far greater challenges.
Still, upon noticing Lu Changsheng's prowess in Talisman Making, an individual promptly asked about the possibility of personalized talismans.
"At present, I can dependably produce specific varieties of Superior Grade Talismans. For Top-Level ones, success hinges on employing Secret Techniques, and customization isn't feasible right now."
With a shake of his head, Lu Changsheng responded, aiming to avoid seeming overly remarkable, yet even then, several individuals approached to cultivate relations with him.
In the end, within Jiang Country, the majority of esteemed Third-Rank Talisman Masters had been absorbed by the Four Great Immortal Sects, rendering it nearly impossible for loose cultivators to obtain even a handful of Third Rank Talismans.
Admittedly, this Changsheng True Master is affiliated with Great Dream Immortal City.
However, considering the needs of family offspring, the potential demand appears substantial, and forging ties along with conducting trades could prove beneficial.
Certain observers inwardly speculated that, given Changsheng True Master's exceptional talent and expertise in the Talisman Path, coupled with his timely bond to Great Dream Immortal City, the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family's ascent appeared all but assured.
...
An hour afterward, the primary trading phase had largely concluded.
Those gathered cultivators shifted to personal exchanges, discreet discussions, or simply sipping tea while conversing, exchanging insights and tales from the cultivation realm.
Earlier, Lu Changsheng had projected an approachable and lavish image, accessible to all, ready to barter the Fourth Rank Demon King's essence for scarce Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, drawing continuous overtures from fellow cultivators eager for deals.
Regarding Changsheng True Master, with only a finite supply of talismans at hand, all had been exchanged, prompting some to request advance orders from him.
With the passage of time, various cultivators started to take their leave with farewells.
In that instant, Lu Changsheng spotted a dignified middle-aged figure in a dark robe rising to depart. His eyes fixed upon the man, and in a serene yet detached manner, he uttered, "Do you intend to depart so simply, Daoist?"
"Eh!?"
All the attending cultivators detected an undercurrent of hostility in the refined words of the Great Dream City Lord.
Star Hiding Hermit recoiled in surprise, his expression tinged with confusion, before he cupped his hands in salute and inquired, "Might the City Lord require something of me?"
"Today's gathering was arranged by me to connect with Daoists across Jiang Country, yet no summons was issued to the Shadow Sect."
Lu Changsheng's refined and poised bearing, straight and commanding under the enigmatic robe, abruptly evoked the image of a slumbering ancient volcano, radiating an unmatched aura of dominance, as if an unyielding peak had been thrust aside.
Upon these words, the assembly's cultivators turned suspicious gazes toward Star Hiding Hermit, comprehending his ties to the Shadow Sect.
As Peak Nascent Soul Cultivators, they were well aware of this faction originating from the Demon Path Cultivation Country!
"The City Lord jests surely. I've resided in Jiang Country from my youth; how could I belong to the Shadow Sect?"
In his black robe, Star Hiding Hermit hastily defended himself.
Yet, sensing the dual sharp Qi mechanisms pinning him down, he realized protests were pointless, for the Great Dream City Lord had pierced his facade.
Lacking any delay, his form abruptly surged with dense, shadowy black radiance, brimming with formidable might, intent on escaping the City Lord Mansion at blinding velocity while activating the clutched Breaking Void Teleportation Talisman!
But precisely then.
"Boom!"
Behind the robed Great Dream City Lord, who stood with hands clasped behind, a swath of primordial chaos materialized, evoking the dawn of creation itself.
A silhouette emerged, akin to an Immortal King or celestial deity, positioned amid the turmoil, a massive sun hovering above, while Yin Yang and Five Elements swirled beneath, radiant divine glows erupting everywhere, accompanied by soaring dragons and frolicking phoenixes.
Furthermore, a harmonious Dao Xi Yin resonated through the realm, reminiscent of solemn Buddhist incantations, thunderous Demon God bellows, and anguished demon cries.
"What sort of Divine Skills are these!?"
Though Lu Changsheng spared the present cultivators from direct assault.
The manifestation of this phenomenon nonetheless cloaked the entire cosmos, swiftly infusing it with a tense, pulse-quickening Qi mechanism.
In their stunned glances around, suns and moons ascended before every attendee and throughout the chamber's nooks, ethereal lights gleaming to reveal distant landscapes.
This embodied the Innate Divine Ability perfected by Lu Changsheng in his Fourth Rank Body Refining—Chaos Wanxiang!
From chaos springs forth creation, and creation evolves into infinite varieties!
The potency of this phenomenon required no elaboration; it mimicked a Nascent Soul Realm's world projection, bearing down upon Star Hiding Hermit.
As a Peak Core Formation Cultivator, Star Hiding Hermit channeled his utmost power in that moment, yet beneath the enveloping celestial anomaly, his frame was crushed instantly, his Qi, blood, and magical prowess thrown into disarray, a trickle of blood escaping his lips.
"Shatter!"
His features contorted in desperate resistance, but Lu Changsheng issued a frosty huff, channeling his Fourth Rank Physique's Qi mechanism into the worldly anomaly.
Immediately, turmoil expanded, skies crumbled.
Star Hiding Hermit vomited blood in a torrent and hurtled backward, his frame and skeleton appearing fractured, pinned beneath an archaic divine peak, rendered utterly immobile.
