Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 2092: 558: Three Enter Nascent Soul Without Breaking Through! (2)

Heavenly Nascent Soul!
This kind of Heavenly Nascent Soul differs from the ordinary one.
Instead, it resembles the Heavenly Foundation Establishment and Heavenly Dao Core Formation, emerging as a rare breakthrough chance during cultivation when progress stalls completely.
Nevertheless, paths exist to pursue both Heavenly Foundation Establishment and Heavenly Dao Core Formation.
However, this Heavenly Nascent Soul proves extraordinarily challenging—far too hard—and across history, few have managed it during the Core Formation Stage.
With the cultivation technique surging wildly, Lu Changsheng unleashed his Fourth Rank Physique along with the immense mana of Core Formation Peak, generating a grand spiritual pressure that permeated the entire palace.
"What is happening!?"
As the cultivation technique activated, his Golden Core erupted in a dazzling burst of myriad rays, poised to shatter the Core Formation bottleneck at last. Endless natural spiritual energy flooded his body, snapping Lu Changsheng momentarily from his stupor.
To his shock, he found himself on the verge of forming a Nascent Soul in this predicament.
Poisoned as he was, how could he possibly succeed in breaking through to Nascent Soul?
Furthermore, the disturbance from forming a Nascent Soul would be tremendous; it would inevitably draw the attention of Great Palace Master Shen Jianjia.
Should she witness this... would she grant him the chance to complete his Nascent Soul breakthrough?
"Stop, stop, stop!"
Without a moment to deliberate, Lu Changsheng bit down fiercely on his tongue tip. The pink peach blossom mark on his forehead flared open, compelling the cultivation technique to halt abruptly and averting his Nascent Soul breakthrough right there.
"A Wu!"
Right away, his palm brushed the Storage Ring, summoning the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror.
This signaled it to intervene swiftly if he neared another Nascent Soul attempt or if odd events unfolded, stopping him and rousing his awareness.
No sooner had he issued the command than the Fairy Tears' effects pulled him back under.
Yet, true to his principle of avoiding waste, he reflexively grasped Shen Yiren nearby, pressing her delicate head close, and via mouth-to-mouth exchange, sought to transfer as much of this Primordial Yin Essence to her as possible.
"...."
Amid the indulgent haze of the dining room, a bronze mirror surfaced—ancient, with a face like flawless snow-white jade, etched in dragon-phoenix patterns and esoteric tadpole script.
Within its reflection emerged a youthful girl of tender features and charming looks, bearing one golden pupil in one eye and a silver-white pupil in the other.
Typically icy and devoid of any emotion, her face now betrayed a faint shift in expression.
A magical treasure evolving into a spiritual treasure gains basic sentience.
And upon further ascension to a Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure, its Artifact Spirit matures, achieving awareness akin to a child's or even an adult's.
As the Artifact Spirit of the Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure [Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror], A Wu normally resembled an emotionless young girl, yet she held impressive spiritual intelligence.
Without that, she couldn't function as the core hub for the Lu Family’s [Sun and Moon Token], handling data flow, information relay, and aiding Lu Changsheng in oversight.
At this instant, though, she longed for the absence of such intelligence.
Forcing her to observe her master's lewd escapades...
This spectacle amounted to nothing less than defiling a Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure!
Still, sensing the anomaly in her master, she remained vigilant as his silent guardian.
Suddenly, a splash of fluid hurtled toward the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror.
"Buzz!"
Even from her master, A Wu deemed it intolerable.
Suppressing the impulse to hurl Solar Mysterious Light at Lu Changsheng or encase him in Taiyin Mysterious Light frost, the mirror quivered. Threads of light swirled across its surface, vaporizing and repelling the incoming droplets.
Thus, the dining room, already thick with alluring fragrance, now featured a bronze mirror aglow with swirling sun-and-moon lights.
Though not aimed at the trio, the mirror still captured their intimately entwined forms.
...
Time passed swiftly, and unbeknownst to them, the dining room's fervor persisted through an entire day and night.
Postures shifted endlessly, yet the three displayed no inclination to cease.
As moments elapsed, the intensity only escalated.
As a banned elixir, the Fourth Rank poison Fairy Tears far surpassed any common aphrodisiac.
Upon ingestion, even Nine Heavenly Immortals would weep without end.
Hence, this day-and-night dual cultivation detox had only just commenced, steadily building toward its peak efficacy.
At the same time, the steward of Bailu Palace felt deeply confused.
How had an entire day passed without the Palace Master’s feast with Elder Xuanmu concluding?
Even for cultivators, a lively discussion might extend the gathering.
Still, wouldn’t it be improper for a man to linger through the night in our Palace Master’s bedchamber, regardless of the excuse?
Yet, following the Palace Master’s explicit orders, she refrained from interrupting and waited in silence.
Suddenly, she sensed a presence and snapped her gaze upward, spotting a stunning figure enveloped in a glowing starry river nearby.
Though the face remained indistinct, the elegant and mesmerizing outline combined with the imperial and awe-inspiring aura revealed the identity instantly.
"Greetings, Great Palace Master!"
The Bailu Palace steward quickly knelt and spoke, "Great Palace Master, the Second Palace Master is entertaining Elder Xuanmu at a banquet that hasn’t concluded, preventing me from announcing your arrival."
"It hasn’t ended!?"
Shen Jianjia’s brows furrowed intensely.
What sort of intimate feast drags on for a full day and night?
She might reluctantly accept it if her younger sister Shen Yiren and Xuanmu Taoist, both practicing the Nourishing Life Technique, got carried away sharing insights and forgot the hours.
However, she understood her second sister’s character intimately.
Without the earlier clash involving the Six Paths Demon Consort, Xuanmu Taoist’s feats, no matter how dazzling, would scarcely earn her regard.
A foreboding chill gripped her heart as Shen Jianjia’s lovely eyes gleamed like a cascading star river, with the plum blossom mark on her forehead starting to shine and spin gently.
Normally, she would avoid breaching her sister’s seclusion or meddling in palace matters.
But this gnawing unease, plus the lack of replies from her sisters after numerous transmissions, signaled trouble.
Her vision pierced through Bailu Palace’s multiple barriers, peering within.
Yet upon beholding the sight of one man and two women in the dining hall, the regal and exalted Great Palace Master Shen Jianjia saw her pupils shrink violently, her expression twisting in horror, as if confronted by an earth-shattering outrage that shattered her worldview, waves of astonishment erupting from her gaze.
In a flash, that astonishment gave way to a chilling, suppressed murderous aura.
From her form burst a horrifying Nascent Soul coercion and slaughterous intent, surging like a furious tsunami, whipping her robes into a frenzy, casting her as a supreme sovereign radiating fearsome authority.
"Huff, huff, huff—"
Beneath this overwhelming prestige, the ambient sky and earth resembled brittle parchment, cracking, warping, and crumbling without end.
Nearby, the Bailu Palace steward dropped to her knees with a resounding "thump," her Qi and blood essence surging wildly, crushed by an unbearable oppressive force.
She couldn’t fathom what afflicted the Great Palace Master.
Having attended the Second Palace Master for hundreds of years, she had never witnessed the Great Palace Master like this.
"Great Palace Master!"
"Greetings, Great Palace Master!"
This wasn’t limited to Bailu Palace.
All cultivators across Divine Maiden Peak detected this dreadful pressure and aura, their souls quaking before faces filled with worry and doubt, as they turned reverently toward Bailu Palace, prostrating to uncover the cause.
Shen Jianjia’s impulse was to lash out at Lu Changsheng immediately.
However, with him entwined so intimately with her sister right then, a furious assault risked injuring her own kin.
Besides, unleashing her power would spark massive chaos, and if outsiders glimpsed this scandalous display, the Goddess Palace would face universal mockery.
Her two sisters would suffer endless scorn as well...
"What on earth is happening!"
As a Nascent Soul True Lord and premier expert in the Starry Sky Sea, Shen Jianjia instantly discerned the trio’s bizarre state.
They appeared reduced to lust-driven animals, enthralled puppets.
"How dare this person!"
She noted Lu Changsheng’s bloodshot eyes and the subtle peach blossom mark on his brow, convinced some technique was at play.
After all, would her sister ever stoop to such acts?
"Whiz!"
Shen Jianjia’s captivating form darted straight into the palace.
"Huff, huff, huff... what’s happening..."
The Bailu Palace steward, slumped on her knees, watched Shen Jianjia vanish into the palace, her complexion ashen while sweat cascaded down, gulping in dread.
"What is going on? The Great Palace Master’s aura just brimmed with murderous intent!"
"Could it be yet another infiltrator from the Six Paths Palace?"
"It seems the Great Palace Master’s strength has grown stronger once more?"
Goddess Palace cultivators gazed upon the rapidly fading pressure, their faces etched with unease and dread as they whispered their speculations.
In a flash, the entire Goddess Palace plunged into full alert.
