Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 2109: 565: Juejian’s Visit, An Encounter with an Old Friend

Should their Great Dream Immortal City refuse assistance, the Heavenly Sword Sect would consequently cease to recognize them as allies.

Under typical circumstances, Great Dream Immortal City would feel no apprehension.

However, at present, Lu Changsheng is absent.

Furthermore, he departed with the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror, in addition to the Sea Splitting Mysterious Dragon Whale.

If the Heavenly Sword Sect were to alter its stance, her current strength would make it challenging to mount a suitable response.

...

The Land of Eternal Night.

Golden Vine Town.

Within a residence constructed from green bricks.

Following a wait exceeding one month, Lu Changsheng eventually succeeded, drawing upon the residual mana of his descendants, to retrieve from his Storage Ring the Third Rank Top Level Puppet, the Moving Mountain Whip, a Third Rank Armor, and the Divination Coin.

Gazing at the Divination Coin within his grasp, he closed his eyes and engaged in prolonged contemplation before abruptly casting it aside.

"A Middle Upper Sign, bearing auspicious divinatory symbols, indicates an encounter with an old acquaintance."

Lu Changsheng appeared deep in thought as he observed the Divination Coin lying on the ground.

Despite the fact that Qi-Blood and mana were quiescent in this realm, preventing the perception of Heavenly Secrets through Divine Sense,

as a Fourth Rank Divination Master, he could still initiate a divination with the assistance of the Divination Coin, his Life Device for divination, though its accuracy would be diminished compared to usual.

His intention was to deduce through the Divination Coin that his impending excursion into the mountains would prove auspicious, leading to an encounter with someone he knew.

As for the specific identity of this acquaintance, whether it be Qian Zhuyan or the Six Paths Demon Consort, he could not ascertain further.

Without delay, Lu Changsheng retrieved the Divination Coin, shouldered the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror, donned armor as dark as ink, and with the Moving Mountain Whip fastened to his back, he exited the dwelling.

"Sir, do you have any commands for us?"

The guards and maids attending outside were somewhat startled upon observing Lu Changsheng bedecked in armor.

They recalled that upon his arrival, Lu Changsheng had been clad in a loose green robe, devoid of any armor or weaponry. They wondered at the reason for his current martial attire.

Even with their ordinary vision, they could discern that this ink-black armor was exceptional, appearing to be forged from mystical iron and radiating a faint, dark luminescence, imparting a profound and weighty impression.

The Moving Mountain Whip upon his back evoked a similar feeling; a mere glance instilled a sense of suffocation.

"Summon your master," Lu Changsheng instructed.

Having resided here for over a month and familiarized himself with the conditions in the Land of Eternal Night, Ancestor Lu felt it inappropriate to continue freeloading.

Upon the arrival of the homeowner, his pupils contracted dramatically as he beheld Lu Changsheng’s armor and the Moving Mountain Whip.

He had previously heard narratives concerning certain individuals from the Outer Heaven.

Some among them possessed abilities akin to spatial storage. He became convinced that the Lu Changsheng before him was undoubtedly one of these preeminent beings from the Outer Heaven.

"Sir, may I inquire as to the reason for summoning me?"

This nobleman, despite being counted among the preeminent powerhouses of Golden Vine Town, exhibited profound deference towards Lu Changsheng.

"I have been indebted to your hospitality for the past month, and I intend to venture into the deep mountains. This serves as your recompense."

Lu Changsheng presented him with a pre-arranged Jade Box, speaking as he did so.

He had dedicated time to studying the Way of Cultivation prevalent here, noting its similarity to Body Cultivation.

Within this Jade Box was a piece of a Core Formation Spiritual Object, imbued with Qi-Blood, which the recipient could utilize for refinement, thereby significantly bolstering his strength.

"Thank you, sir!"

Yuan Yihua, his face alight with delight, accepted the Jade Box and offered his sincere thanks. He then inquired whether Lu Changsheng required a guide,

mentioning that numerous hunters within the town were capable of escorting him into the mountains.

"There is no need," Lu Changsheng replied, waving his hand.

He then gestured towards the three puppets situated within the house before departing alongside them.

"Hiss..."

As Yuan Yihua observed the three puppets before him, his conviction that Lu Changsheng was an extraordinary individual only deepened. He respectfully escorted Lu Changsheng out of the town, proceeding towards the imposing deep mountains.

After respectfully bidding Lu Changsheng farewell, he promptly returned to his residence and proceeded to open the Jade Box. Inside lay a Blood Ginseng, emanating a rosy luminescence and a delightful fragrance.

Merely inhaling the aroma of this Blood Ginseng invigorated him profoundly, evoking a sensation akin to celestial light effervescing within.

"This mysterious sir has bestowed upon me such a spiritually potent medicine," he marveled.

While he could not identify any specific Core Formation Spiritual Object, he was acutely aware that the spiritual essence contained within this Blood Ginseng was astonishing, far surpassing anything he had ever encountered. His hands trembled with excitement.

He believed that if he could fully absorb and refine its essence, his strength would undoubtedly undergo a radical transformation, enabling him to establish himself in a prestigious, distant city, thus freeing him from the necessity of remaining in this secluded, shadowed town.

...

Having departed the confines of the town, Lu Changsheng directed his course towards the sun-drenched deep mountains.

The untamed wilderness presented extreme hardships, yet for Lu Changsheng, it felt as effortless as a leisurely walk.

Occasionally, a monstrous beast would materialize, but without any need for his intervention, the automatons accompanying him would dispatch it with remarkable ease.

After an indeterminate period of travel, Lu Changsheng's gaze fell upon a dense, foreboding forest ahead; its darkness seemed to press in, as if unseen eyes were fixed upon him.

Despite the absence of mana or Divine Sense.

Still, fortified by his Fourth Rank Physique and the enhanced perception granted by his Taiyi Divine Soul, he concentrated intently. Through this focus, he discerned a shadowy figure, its form obscured, with a pallid, human-like face and eyes that were entirely white, emanating a chilling, eerie aura.

Amidst such a desolate woodland, the sudden manifestation of this apparition was truly astonishing.

"Scram, you damned thing!"

Nonetheless, Lu Changsheng remained entirely unfazed, unleashing the Moving Mountain Whip he wielded.

Without the slightest hesitation, he hurled the Moving Mountain Whip forward.

Even with its spiritual essence suppressed and its power diminished in this locale, much like the Michen Banner, this artifact remained a supreme Divine Weapon.

A distinct "puff" sound echoed, closely followed by a bone-chilling, high-pitched shriek. The shadowy apparition dissolved into wisps of smoke, leaving behind a Crystal Stone, emerald green and the size of a fingernail.

"Hm? What is this?"

Lu Changsheng drew nearer, reclaiming both the Moving Mountain Whip and the Crystal Stone. He examined the stone closely, noting its containment of exceptionally pure Yin Soul Power.

"Could this be what Yuan Yihua and the others spoke of as the enigmatic dangers?"

In the preceding days, Lu Changsheng had acquired a more profound comprehension of the Land of Eternal Night, recognizing it as a realm of extreme eeriness, teeming with numerous inexplicable and mysterious occurrences.
