Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1987: 522
Previously on Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family...
Seeing the scene unfold, Qin Yi, Lu Qingxuan, Lu Chensha, and the others promptly summoned their Spiritual Artifacts, bracing themselves to join the fight.
"Big sister-in-law, Qingxuan, Chensha... you all manage the formation."
Lu Wangshu glanced toward them and instructed, reluctant to pull the whole Lu Family into this clash over the Secret Realm.
As she spoke, the talismanic weapon [Ninety-Nine Mysterious True Strategy] activated, shifting into thirty-six thousand Profound Truth Talismans that encircled her entirely.
Right away, the Talisman Brush she gripped suddenly tapped, making the talisman under her drawing dissolve swiftly.
"Big sister-in-law, don't worry, Wangshu never acts without confidence, if she proceeds like this, there's surely a purpose."
Lu Qingxuan spotted Lu Lingxiao and vaguely understood Lu Wangshu's intentions, sending this thought to Qin Yi through transmission.
"Alright."
Qin Yi gave a faint nod, yet she held her Flying Sword with a firm grasp, set to intervene should the situation sour.
Nearby, Lu Linghe and Lu Xuanqian remained poised to leap into action at once.
Just Lu Chensha, noticing Lu Wangshu's habit of stirring chaos and her resolve to battle alone beside Lu Lingxiao, shook his head in resignation.
He decided it would be smartest to keep well clear of this sister henceforth to dodge extra complications.
Right then, Lu Lingxiao clashed against numerous foes on the battlefield, immersed in brutal combat, unleashing everything without holding back, armored in Red Gold.
Lu Wangshu swung her Talisman Brush, drawing Talismans without pause, with thirty-six thousand Profound Truth Talismans whirling around her. As any foe drew close, a handful of Talismans launched to lighten the load on Lu Lingxiao.
"Boom boom boom!!!"
Previously, Lu Lingxiao had poured out his full might but held back from delivering death blows.
Yet now, casting aside all restraint, the Dragon Roar Origin burst forth entirely, while the Golden Fire Vine Tree rapidly flung a flanking Foundation Establishment Peak cultivator away, who spewed blood and withdrew in terror.
Still, he suffered a strike from the opposing False Core Immortal, leading him to cough up blood and reel backward, his long black hair scattered wildly.
"Vermilion Bird Sky-Scorching Art!"
Lu Lingxiao roared, his voice echoing like a dragon's bellow and phoenix's keen, making several enemies quiver as he drove forward his assault.
Within this frantic brawl, he couldn't employ the Son of Heaven’s Golden Eyes to sense mana currents, vulnerabilities, or openings, so he chose to abandon this Divine Skill, trusting purely in his combat instincts.
At that instant, his once-regal demeanor had vanished; his thick hair stood messy and wild, as he brandished the Golden Fire Vine Tree to counter the False Core cultivator’s Magical Treasures.
"Excellent technique!"
The False Core Cultivator yelled, locked in relentless savage combat with Lu Lingxiao, though he refrained from fatal strikes.
Indeed, no one with sense could overlook Lu Lingxiao's extraordinary talent.
And plenty had already inferred Lu Lingxiao’s background from Lu Wangshu's presence.
In this scenario, inflicting serious injury was acceptable, but slaying him was utterly forbidden!
"Swoosh!"
Yet another razor-sharp sword gleam hurtled at Lu Lingxiao’s head, his eyes blazing like ascending sun and moon, unleashing twin golden rays that shattered every Qi Mechanism.
Then, his left hand surged with golden Divine Light, snatching suddenly to clasp the Spiritual Artifact right in his bare grip!
Immortal Bone [All Techniques are Perpetual]!
This not only boosted his left hand's power, granting immunity to diverse techniques, but also amplified the velocity and force of every move he made!
Furthermore, with Lu Lingxiao’s Foundation Establishment Peak realm paired to his Second Rank Late Stage Physique, the All Techniques are Perpetual Bone enabled him to snatch the Flying Sword directly with his hand!
"Seizing top-level Spiritual Artifact barehanded!"
"This this this!!!"
Earlier, observers had spotted the oddity in Lu Lingxiao’s left hand, hinting at some Secret Technique in practice.
However, no one anticipated it could challenge high-tier Spiritual Artifacts head-on; this feat was utterly jaw-dropping.
The onlookers froze in awe at this spectacle.
Qin Yi, Lu Qingxuan, and the rest close by showed the same stunned reaction.
"Is this the gap between mediocrity and genius...?"
The False Core Elder battling Lu Lingxiao felt a profound shock, keenly aware of the chasm separating him from prodigies like Lu Lingxiao.
Though he matched Lu Lingxiao blow for blow, or even slightly edged ahead, it all stemmed from his superior cultivation level.
Yet in a fair duel, he fell short against Lu Lingxiao.
Still, setting his turmoil aside, he channeled his full body's mana, exploiting the opening as a ruler-form Magical Treasure crashed down like thunder, sending Lu Lingxiao stumbling back with blood rising in his chest.
Forcing the blood down, he invoked a secret technique to burn his essence blood, clutched the Golden Fire Vine Tree in his left hand, and hurled a world-shaking strike at the False Core Elder, utterly overwhelming him.
Lu Wangshu watched her brother teetering on the brink, liable to fall any second, so her Talisman Brush pointed sharply, positioning Talismans across her vision to wall off the encircling cultivators.
However, the uproar had already drawn additional cultivators from within the Secret Realm.
They surveyed the chaos, noting Lu Lingxiao near collapse, figuring that overcoming Lu Wangshu would grant them the Secret Realm Token, and thus evaded Lu Lingxiao to charge at her.
"Hmph, do you think this lady is an herbivore?"
Having just stepped into the Secret Realm brimming with exhilaration, Lu Wangshu had no desire to suppress her abilities, and hiding them was out of the question anyway.
As hordes of cultivators surged closer, the Profound Origin Bead within her Qi Ocean Core shook fiercely, prompting the orbiting Talismans to dissolve in a frenzy, ensnaring a multitude of attackers.
"Not good, the Heavenly Talisman Lu Family’s Talisman Formation!"
"No matter how strong the Talisman Formation is, it cannot possibly confine so many of us!"
"Break!"
These cultivators proved no pushovers, and though Lu Wangshu had deployed her Talisman Formation beforehand, it drained her noticeably.
But the very next instant, her palm brushed the sachet on her waist, then she hurled it softly while her hands wove seals.
"Whizz whizz whizz——"
In a blink, the paper figures morphed into mighty warriors bearing empty stares, their forms etched with countless elaborate runes.
"Talisman Soldiers!?"
Catching sight of these paper warrior figures, someone instantly shouted in disbelief, their expressions filled with bafflement.
