Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 2236: 602: Illusionary Shadow Mink, Thunder Fire Body!
Previously on Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family...
This kind of experience is truly... beyond belief.
However, such things are not unheard of in the Cultivation World.
She even heard of demon beasts nurturing human infants to adulthood.
"Chensha, how do you plan to deal with this Illusionary Shadow Mink?"
Lu Changsheng previously calculated that his son’s fortunes and misfortunes were intertwined, likely due to some opportunity gained from this Illusionary Shadow Mink.
And this Illusionary Shadow Mink, unlike most Mid-stage Demon Kings, is not as vicious and has a bond with his son. Lu Changsheng also wondered if his son could form a contract with it.
If he could form a contract with it, Lu Chensha’s progress to the Nascent Soul Level would be much easier.
Moreover, if the Illusionary Shadow Mink continues to grow and fully grasps the power of the void, it would be considered a rare Spiritual Pet.
Lu Chensha knew that when demon beasts grow to the Third Rank, their spiritual intelligence is not inferior to humans.
A demon beast like the Illusionary Shadow Mink has even higher spiritual intelligence than average demon beasts.His father’s inquiry was possibly a way to help him win its favor.
He looked at the Illusionary Shadow Mink caught in the Yin Yang Qi Grasp, detecting a hint of helplessness in its eyes.
He immediately cupped his hands towards Lu Changsheng and said, "Father, this Illusionary Shadow Mink has not harmed me during these days, and thanks to it, I have survived in this mountain range. Please spare its life."
Lu Changsheng smiled lightly at his son’s clever reaction and said, "Since you say so, I will spare its life."
"However, it will be spared the death penalty, but if we just let it go, what if it seeks revenge?"
In his words, Lu Changsheng looked at the Illusionary Shadow Mink with an imposing demeanor. With a swift grip of his palm, the Yin Yang Hand enveloping the mink shrouded it like fog, gradually transforming into a fist-sized Yin Yang Small Ball.
Lu Chensha and Lu Ruyi, witnessing their father’s Divine Skills, were so astonished they couldn’t speak.
Especially Lu Chensha.
He knew that the Illusionary Shadow Mink mastered some power of the void, making it hard even for an average Mid-stage Third Rank Demon King to kill it. Yet, it was effortlessly captured and restrained by his father.
Had Lu Ruyi not heard Lu Chensha’s account, she wouldn’t have recognized the Illusionary Shadow Mink as a Mid-stage Demon King.
"Buzz!"
Lu Changsheng raised his palm slightly, sending the Yin Yang Small Ball into the Magical Treasure [Formless Treasure Wheel] for imprisonment.
"This kind of Illusionary Shadow Mink is quite remarkable, with a certain level of spiritual nature. If you can enhance your Divine Sense to the Nascent Soul Level before forming a core, there’s a chance you could contract with it."
Lu Changsheng said with a smile. Although he could assist and there was the Ancient Beast Taming Charm of Hong Lian,
without a Nascent Soul-level soul, his son wishing to subdue a Mid-stage Demon King was no different from daydreaming.
"Thank you, father. I will diligently strive."
Lu Chensha bowed and expressed his gratitude.
If he could subdue this Illusionary Shadow Mink, it would naturally be advantageous for him.
"Let’s go."
Though there might be opportunities for his son with the Illusionary Shadow Mink.
As long as it’s not an exceptionally auspicious opportunity, Lu Changsheng didn’t dwell on it. He placed them into the Tianyuan Lotus and then returned to the Red Peak Mountain Range base.
...
Half a month later, Lu Changsheng silently returned to the Red Peak Mountain Range.
Seeing Lu Ruyi and Lu Chensha safely return, Lu Qingxuan, Lu Xingyang, and others felt relieved.
In the following days, Lu Changsheng temporarily settled at the Red Peak Mountain Range base, accompanying Lu Miaoge, Lu Miaohuan, and Zhao Qingqing, and also helping his son Lu Qingxuan and daughter Lu Ruyi with their healing.
During this period, Nascent Soul Cultivators from Yue Country frequently invited Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge to help in battles, but he declined politely, citing excessive mental exhaustion.
However, facing repeated invitations, Lu Changsheng said that if they provided Talisman-Making Materials, he could help draw some Third Rank Talismans.
In this way, time passed little by little.
Half a month passed, and Lu Qingxuan’s injuries healed completely. Lu Changsheng gave him a [Heaven-replenishing Elixir].
He had a total of two Heaven-replenishing Elixirs.
A few days ago, he gave one to his daughter [Lu Qingzhu] to help her upgrade from a Seventh Grade Spiritual Root to a Fourth Grade.
Many people actually could have been given the remaining elixir.
But considering Lu Qingxuan was preparing for core formation and aiming for a Superior Grade Gold Core, as a father, he decided to give him a push.
"This is... Heaven-replenishing Elixir!?"
Lu Qingxuan exclaimed in surprise as he looked at the porcelain bottle containing the crystal-clear pill, so lively with life Qi, realizing its origin and feeling unworthy of it.
The rarity of Heaven-replenishing Elixir is not inferior to the Coagulation Crystal Elixir, if not exceeding it.
Having a Fourth Grade Spiritual Root, taking it would have limited effect and would be a waste; it would be better given to a Lu Family Disciple with a Lower Grade Spiritual Root.
"Aren’t you aiming to achieve a Superior Grade Gold Core? This is your father’s reward. Accept it."
Lu Changsheng’s calm and steady voice carried an undeniable authority.
Hearing this, Lu Qingxuan hesitated for a moment but eventually accepted and took the Heaven-replenishing Elixir.
However, just as Lu Changsheng anticipated.
After taking the Heaven-replenishing Elixir, his Fourth Grade Spiritual Root only improved to Third Grade, the effect was rather ordinary.
Yet, aside from the Heaven-replenishing Elixir, there were other gifts.
Chiefly, the Heavenly Spiritual Fire [Thunder Gang Flame] and the Heaven and Earth Thunder Seed [Exorcism Golden Thunder] he once refined early on.
Though this kind of Heavenly Spiritual Fire and Spiritual Thunder was of some use to him, it was hardly significant.
Given this, it was better to gift them to his son Lu Qingxuan.
Although with his efforts, he refined a type of Second Rank Heavenly Spiritual Fire and, with Lu Ping’an’s assistance, refined a type of Second Rank Thunder Seed.
But these Spiritual Fires and Spiritual Thunders were all Second Rank, rendering moderate effects.
They bolstered his combat power and cultivation technique "Thunder Fire Nine Arts" to some extent, but could not bring transformative breakthroughs.
Yet if he could, at the Foundation Establishment Stage, integrate Third Rank Spiritual Fire and Spiritual Thunder, the effects would be radically different.
Not only would his combat power elevate, achieving a transformative breakthrough, his cultivation technique "Thunder Fire Nine Arts" could further advance, even condensing an innate Thunder Fire Body!
