Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 2121: 569: Yun Wanshang: Such a Monster Exists in This World (Double-Length) (2)

Yet, this particular night marked a departure from all previous ones.
Now, his accumulated knowledge boasted numerous top-tier cultivation technique classics. Coupled with the Taiyi Divine Soul and Nascent Soul Divine Consciousness, the task of learning Heavenly Light Power felt remarkably straightforward.
Utilizing several spiritual herbs infused with heavenly light as a catalyst, a rapid torrent surged through Lu Changsheng’s blood, transforming his body into what felt like an intensely blazing furnace.
Shortly thereafter, a brilliant burst of heavenly light erupted from deep within his physical form, piercing directly through his flesh.
“Is this the manifestation of heavenly light? It bears a curious resemblance to the qi-blood power derived from body-refining techniques, or the mana of cultivators, yet it feels intrinsically aligned with this world.”
Lu Changsheng observed the ethereal, mist-like heavenly light lingering at his fingertip, speaking his thoughts aloud.
Without dwelling excessively on his own contemplation, he promptly sought out Yun Wanshang for guidance.
It wasn’t that Lu Changsheng was disinclined to research and ponder; rather, consulting Yun Wanshang directly presented a convenient opportunity to not only gain insight but also to strengthen their burgeoning relationship.
“What do you mean, you’ve already mastered the Wind and Cloud Power?”
Yun Wanshang’s astonishment was palpable upon hearing Lu Changsheng’s claim that he had already mastered her Wind and Cloud Power.
It was crucial to remember that this particular cultivation technique was one she had acquired within the Land of Eternal Night, a secret method uniquely suited to her own cultivation path.
While not an ultimate technique, it was certainly classified as an advanced-level secret art pertaining to heavenly light power.
For her, the process of mastering it had taken a full fortnight; how then, had Lu Changsheng managed to grasp it in such a startlingly short span of time?
Had she foreseen his ability to learn it with such apparent ease, she would have imparted the knowledge to him while they were still amidst the secluded depths of the mountains.
“Mhm.”
Lu Changsheng confirmed with a nod, conjuring a wisp of Wind and Cloud Power to manifest at his fingertip.
“This…”
Yun Wanshang’s lips parted slightly as she gazed at Lu Changsheng, her expression suggesting she was looking upon something akin to a prodigious anomaly.
“I perceive this heavenly light power as a simplified iteration of body-refining techniques. As I engaged in dual cultivation, incorporating body refinement from the outset, its assimilation proved exceptionally straightforward.”
Lu Changsheng articulated his understanding of the process.
“It can indeed be interpreted in that manner…”
Yun Wanshang softly elaborated, elucidating the underlying principles. She suggested that heavenly light power might have originated from the earliest cultivators in this realm, deriving its form from a fusion of cultivation techniques and body-refining methods.
Consequently, individuals like herself and Lu Changsheng, possessing backgrounds from outside this norm, would naturally possess an inherent advantage when cultivating such arts.
After all, even though the dormant qi-blood and magical power of cultivators might be suppressed, the foundational integrity of their physical bodies remains intact.
Even for a cultivator merely at the Foundation Establishment stage, not practicing dual cultivation, the transition from Qi Refinement to Foundation Establishment involves a profound metamorphosis – a cleansing of the marrow and shedding of impurities, rendering their physical form far superior to that of an ordinary person.
“Given your robust foundation in body refinement, the cultivation of this Heavenly Light Power will undoubtedly be considerably less arduous for you.”
Although Yun Wanshang projected an aura of composure, she harbored profound admiration internally for Lu Changsheng’s innate talent.
Previously, she had regarded him merely as a fledgling cultivator, unworthy of her attention.
Now, not only had he ascended to her own level, but his inherent talent and exceptional endowment appeared to surpass hers by a full measure.
“I understand. In that case, would it be feasible for me to integrate the qi-blood power from my original body-refining techniques into this heavenly light, thereby forging a unique form of heavenly light power?”
Having substantiated his conjecture, Lu Changsheng proceeded to seek further clarification.
He sensed that pursuing the cultivation of this standard Wind and Cloud Power was unnecessary; instead, he envisioned directly condensing a potent Brahma Demon True Saint Power.
“That may be achievable, but the process carries significant inherent dangers.”
Yun Wanshang considered his query with earnest deliberation before responding, emphasizing that such an endeavor constituted the creation of an entirely new cultivation technique. It was a path best undertaken only after achieving absolute mastery of an existing art.
Furthermore, she cautioned that in the realm of cultivation, even the slightest oversight could invite peril upon oneself.
“Allow me to attempt it.”
Lu Changsheng contemplated briefly before assuming a cross-legged posture. He then initiated the operation of his “Brahma Demon True Saint Technique,” drawing upon the sensory perceptions derived from the Wind and Cloud Power.
“True Man, do you happen to possess any spiritual items imbued with heavenly light?”
Lu Changsheng opened his eyes, directing his gaze toward Yun Wanshang, who was observing him with quiet attentiveness.
“Indeed, I do.” Yun Wanshang promptly retrieved several spiritual items from her storage ring.
“That should suffice.”
Lu Changsheng proceeded to consume these spiritual items without hesitation.
In a mere instant, Yun Wanshang witnessed faint threads of heavenly light manifesting and overflowing from Lu Changsheng’s palm.
“???”
Yun Wanshang found herself utterly perplexed.
She prided herself on her keen intellect and perceptive abilities, yet she now stood bewildered.
What exactly was she witnessing?
Not only had Lu Changsheng mastered her Wind and Cloud Power in an astonishingly brief period, but he had also proceeded to directly manifest a novel form of heavenly light power, seemingly derived from his body-refining techniques.
Although this nascent heavenly light power was currently quite weak in its manifestation.
However, it manifested three distinct types of Qi Mechanisms swirling within.
The first exuded a tranquility and harmony, appearing both eternal and untouched by time;
The second pulsed with aggression and oppression, brimming with an unyielding pressure;
And the third was steeped in the essence of destruction, decay, and ultimate demise;
Merely from observing these three Qi Mechanisms, she discerned that Lu Changsheng's Heavenly Light power, or rather, his body-refining technique, was profoundly extraordinary.
At this very moment, Yun Wanshang grasped the truth: the individual before her was an absolute rarity, a phenomenon unlike any other.
He was utterly incomparable to any prodigy from the Qingyun Sect or the Jiang Country.
Such an anomaly as Lu Changsheng could only stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the revered Saint Heirs and Goddesses from the paramount powers residing in the Southern Wilderness.
Nay, even without having personally witnessed these renowned Saint Heirs or Holy Maidens, she felt confident that Lu Changsheng surpassed them in his sheer anomalous nature.
Provided he did not falter, his future was undeniably destined to be etched into the annals of cultivation history throughout the Southern Wilderness!
"No wonder he ascended from a mere Qi refining cultivator to this pinnacle within a mere century. Beyond fortunate encounters and serendipitous opportunities, his unparalleled talent must surely be a contributing factor."
"Or perhaps, to achieve such a feat in just a hundred years, opportunity, fortune, talent, comprehension, and diligent effort are all indispensable components."
Yun Wanshang mused these thoughts internally.
Yet, for an inexplicable reason, this line of contemplation irked her deeply.
Where on earth did this impudent fellow invest his diligent effort?
While she was unaware of his recent activities, she recalled from her earlier investigations that he maintained numerous concubines and fathered hundreds of children, behaving like a veritable stud animal?
This... stud animal... and effort?
Yun Wanshang found herself perplexed, struggling to reconcile the Lu Changsheng of her memory with the astonishing figure before her.
However, if he could achieve such terrifying results while dedicating his thoughts, time, and energy to women and offspring, just imagine the heights he could reach if he were to wholeheartedly devote himself to cultivation, to the Dao, body and soul!
