Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 2135: 574: Lu Lingjing: Madam, Master Is Missing!
Previously on Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family...
Land of Eternal Night.
Within the forbidden mountains, an all-encompassing darkness reigns.
In this somber, foreboding, and mysterious domain, a mechanical puppet, its form radiating a chilling, faint luminescence, stands sentinel beside a golden bird, its eyes flickering with spectral flames, both silently guarding a tent.
At this very moment, inside the pitch-black tent, a mystical mirror hangs suspended, emitting a subtle radiance that illuminates a mesmerizing and intoxicating spectacle.
Upon a dark golden tiger skin blanket, Yun Wanshang’s jade-like form reclines, her fair and slender figure draped in silken black hair that cascades like obsidian satin, akin to a mystical orchid unfurling in the dead of night.
Her cheeks flushed, her beautiful eyes softly closed, biting her ruby lips with teeth like pearls, her delicate brows occasionally furrowing then relaxing, she emanates an otherworldly allure that leaves one utterly spellbound.
Lu Changsheng gazed intently and profoundly at the beauty before him, gently placing his palm on her seemingly delicate yet resilient waist, fearing he might shatter the exquisite vision with excessive force.
Without a word spoken between them, solely through their most primal actions, they expressed their deep mutual longing and affection.
As their Yin Yang energies intertwined, merging seamlessly like water and milk, an invisible cauldron, forged by a blazing sun and a bright moon, faintly hovered above them.
"Focus your energy!"At this juncture, the woman spoke, her voice imbued with an uncontrollable charm.
Lu Changsheng observed Yun Wanshang’s spirit-nurturing energy entering his Qi Ocean Core, much like a tiny fish, resonating with his Golden Core Dao Foundation, thus awakening his Yin Yang energies, a development that astonished him.
He could not afford to be distracted by the intimate scene unfolding, so he calmed his mind to meticulously guide this thread of spirit-nurturing energy.
He employed his Yin Yang energies to nurture this singular thread of spirit-nurturing energy, then endeavored to further stimulate his Golden Core Dao Foundation.
After a considerable period, the two of them circulated their respective cultivation techniques, returning this thread of spirit-nurturing energy to Yun Wanshang. Lu Changsheng then voiced his thoughts, "True Man, since you were aware of this energy’s effect earlier, why did you only mention it now."
Through their dual cultivation, and by guiding Yun Wanshang’s spirit-nurturing energy, Lu Changsheng came to understand that this particular strand possessed the ability to stimulate the Golden Core Dao Foundation and awaken dormant mana.
While the effect was admittedly negligible, even less potent than that of the tricolor flower.
However, the critical issue was that the tricolor flower was an exceptionally rare spiritual entity, demanding significant time and effort to procure. In contrast, this spirit-nurturing energy could be accessed simply through the act of dual cultivation.
Furthermore, under the influence of the spirit-nurturing energy, his Yin Yang energies were awakened, which could then be utilized to stimulate his Golden Core or to nurture the spirit-nurturing energy itself.
In their current predicament, it was a perfectly harmonious arrangement.
Her spirit-nurturing energy would nourish his Golden Core Dao Foundation, while his Yin Yang energies could, in turn, nourish her own spirit-nurturing energy.
"..."
Yun Wanshang found herself momentarily speechless.
Her initial hypothesis was indeed correct; her spirit-nurturing energy proved effective for Lu Changsheng.
And now, with his cultivation level having advanced to the Core Formation Peak, his Yin Yang energies were capable of providing further nourishment and enhancement to her spirit-nurturing energy, thereby aiding her in awakening her latent mana.
"True Man, we have already squandered so much precious time; we cannot afford to lose any more. We must hasten to awaken my mana and depart from this place."
Lu Changsheng did not harbor any blame towards Yun Wanshang.
After all, it was not as if she could simply approach him out of the blue and suggest dual cultivation, could she?
He himself did not mind, but as a female cultivator, she was naturally bound to possess a degree of reserve.
"???"
Yun Wanshang was taken aback by Lu Changsheng’s words.
Although the spirit-nurturing energy exhibited some efficacy in awakening the Golden Core Dao Foundation, just how long would it truly take to fully awaken her dormant mana?
Even with her cultivation of the Heavenly Light Power and a physical physique surpassing the third rank, she feared she might utterly collapse...
Moreover, the concept of endless dual cultivation... she distinctly recalled that his Yin Yang energies required half a month, or even a full month, to recover, did they not?
Within the Land of Eternal Night, while her Golden Core Dao Foundation remained dormant, could his Yin Yang energies still regenerate?
Yet, before she could delve too deeply into these unsettling thoughts, Lu Changsheng resumed his actions, earnestly uttering, "True Man, focus your energy!"
...
Jiang Country, Bi Lake Mountain.
Lu Family Mansion.
"Aunt, given the perilous state of the war in Yue Country, please permit me to venture forth!"
Lu Ping’an stood with an imposing presence, earnestly bowing to Lu Miaoge, who stood before him.
Following their establishment of a stronghold in Wu Country, Yuan Country opted to intervene in the Liangyue War.
Although Jiang Country provided steadfast support, the Nascent Soul True Lord did not directly engage, their assistance nevertheless placed Yue Country at a significant disadvantage, plunging it into grave peril.
Faced with this crisis, the Jiang Country could not possibly stand by. Consequently, not only were the Nascent Soul cultivators from the Qingyun Sect, Luoxia Sect, and Spirit Taming Sect summoned to provide aid in Yue Country, but the affiliated family forces under their dominion were also compelled to participate.
The Heavenly Talisman Lu Family, boasting three Nascent Soul cultivators of its own, was naturally conscripted into this effort.
They were presented with a stark choice: either dispatch one of their Nascent Soul Immortals to the front lines or contribute ten Foundation Establishment cultivators, alongside substantial strategic resources, to bolster the war effort.
Such conflicts between cultivation nations were notoriously savage, and deploying Foundation Establishment cultivators into these battles meant an almost certain death sentence, with survival being a remote possibility.
The Lu Family, deeply valuing its lineage, would never condemn its own to such perilous battlefields. Thus, Lu Miaoge made the decision to personally head to the war in Yue Country, leaving Lu Ping’an behind to safeguard the family's interests.
"Ping’an," Lu Miaoge stated, her voice gentle, "with the Jiang Country now fully engaged in this war, there's a risk that the Liang Country or cultivators from the Jin Kingdom might seize this opportunity to stir up trouble in our rear. Therefore, the family still requires your presence here."
Lu Miaoge, adorned in a simple white skirt, possessed a delicate countenance and exuded a tranquil aura. She spoke with soft conviction, fully aware that within their family's cultivation hierarchy, Lu Ping’an's actual combat prowess far surpassed her own.
The underlying reason, however, was that his formidable strength was often inconvenient to openly display, potentially inciting unwanted avarice and apprehension from other cultivation powers.
