Lu Miaohuan's appearance changes drastically after reaching Core Formation, becoming eerily enchanting. She discovers her Heavenly Longevity Technique's Dao Foundation Seed now craves to devour other cultivators' seeds. This realization frightens her, and she shares her newfound, unsettling abilities and the technique's incompleteness with her worried sister and companions.

"The cultivation technique is incomplete."

Lu Miaoge nodded gently, not surprised by this, as she and Lu Changsheng had long suspected it.

The reason is simple.

This cultivation technique appears profound and ingenious with astonishing effects, but it isn’t particularly rare.

It’s not only found in the Jiang Country’s cultivation realm, but also circulated in other places, having been unearthed by others.

However, due to its overly stringent cultivation conditions and its almost useless function, few people practice it, so there is little information available.

"No worries, when Changsheng returns, we can see if he’s aware."

Lu Miaoge comforted her sister.

Then she said to Lu Miaoyun, "Miaoyun, in the coming days, keep an eye out and gather information related to the ’Heavenly Longevity Technique.’"

"Okay," Lu Miaoyun nodded in agreement.

Seeing her two sisters with somewhat serious expressions, she spoke up to reassure them, "Sister Huanhuan, don’t worry, with my husband here, there will definitely be no problem."

Lu Miaoyun noticed her two sisters’ serious demeanor and promptly spoke out to reassure them, confident that her husband could solve anything.

"Mother, don’t worry, everything will be fine."

Lu Qingqi also comfortingly held her mother’s arm, using the Water Mirror Technique to demonstrate that her mother was still young and beautiful, sure to astonish father when he returned.

"Hmm," Lu Miaohuan nodded lightly.

Despite the young ladies’ consoling words, they paid no heed to the matter of the cultivation technique’s consumption.

Yet, the effects of this cultivation technique still diluted some of Lu Miaohuan’s joy and celebration over breaking through Core Formation.

...

A month later.

At the peak of Bi Yun Mountain.

A ripple of spatial waves was seen.

A handsome youth in a green robe, holding a five-colored banner, appeared.

"Such a lively affair."

Even without spreading his divine sense, Lu Changsheng, as a Nascent Soul True Lord, could perceive a great area with his senses.

Thus, upon returning to Bi Yun Peak, he saw Bi Lake Mountain was bustling with celebration, hosting some kind of ceremony.

He swept his Nascent Soul Divine Consciousness across the area, instantly recognizing it as his daughter-in-law Wang Yanjing’s ceremony.

Originally, he planned to return after roughly a year upon going to the Jin Kingdom.

Hence, he asked his wife, Lu Miaoyun, to schedule these arrangements for a year later.

But things didn’t go as planned.

This journey involving a breakthrough, resolving the Yiming Ghost Sect, didn’t take much time.

However, seeing the artifact refiners from the three sects of the Jin Kingdom and the collected materials, he changed his plan to refine a spiritual treasure at the Yiming Ghost Sect, which delayed the timeline.

Thankfully, this didn’t cause any issues.

For a ceremony of this sort, Lu Ancestor wasn’t particularly interested.

Briefly surveying with his divine sense, Lu Changsheng entered the Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven, intending to link with the Great Dream Immortal City via the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror.

Yet, upon entering the Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven, he immediately saw the huge Abyssal Ghoul Blossom towering several meters high.

He immediately discerned that this demon plant had reached the third rank.

With sharp insight, he noticed significant changes among the flora within the Cave Heaven since his departure.

"Has Huanhuan broken through Core Formation?"

Lu Changsheng quickly deduced that his wife, Lu Miaohuan, must have reached the Core Formation Stage.

The greatest disturbance in the Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven before he left was the Abyssal Ghoul Blossom devouring the Golden One-Horned Bear’s heart.

Now that the Abyssal Ghoul Blossom had achieved the third rank, Lu Miaohuan should be about the same.

Without thinking much, Lu Changsheng planned to see his wife later and tossed out the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror, injecting mana.

"Husband."

After a few breaths, the mirror surface of the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror revealed the perfectly flawless and exquisite face of Hong Lian.

"Hong Lian, have there been any developments in the Starry Sky Sea or Great Dream Immortal City during these days?"

Even though his divination predicted no problems, Lu Changsheng still wanted confirmation.

"Husband, the Immortal City has been peaceful these days, with nothing happening."

Hong Lian stated, then asked about the success of Lu Changsheng’s journey.

"Haha, it was quite good."

Lu Changsheng replied with a smile, considering his journey to the Jin Kingdom to be quite successful.

Although he didn’t borrow the secret treasure to limit the Nascent Soul Spirit Body from the Heavenly Sword Sect, he acquired the Soul Vibration Bell.

The ventures to break through at the Five Poisons Cult and pacify the Yiming Ghost Sect while subjugating the Heavenly Corpse Sect went smoothly without unexpected variables.

Resources obtained from the Five Poisons Cult, Yiming Ghost Sect, and Heavenly Corpse Sect exceeded his expectations.

"Congratulations, Husband." Hong Lian noticed the lightness in Lu Changsheng’s voice and knew he was content and in a great mood.

Then she mentioned receiving a message from the Heavenly Sword Sect.

They inquired about the handling of matters in the Starry Sky Sea and if everything was smooth.

From these inquiries, it was clear the Heavenly Sword Sect urgently hoped that Lu Changsheng, as the Great Dream City Master, Yangming True Monarch, would assist with the Liangyue War.

Actually, the intelligence from the Great Dream Immortal City also revealed the unfavorable situation of the Liangyue War.

There’s an impression that the Yue Country might collapse at any moment.

The cultivators deployed from Jiang Country for assistance were no longer just for patrolling and logistics as in the past, but now serving as the main force.

"Hong Lian, you can inform the Heavenly Sword Sect about the Yiming Ghost Sect’s situation."

Lu Changsheng spoke.

There’s no such thing as a wall in the world that doesn’t let the wind through.

As the overlord adjacent to Jin Kingdom, even though what he accomplished in Jin Kingdom can be concealed for a short time.

Given enough time, the Heavenly Sword Sect would undeniably sense something amiss.

Rather than waiting for the Heavenly Sword Sect to inquire and investigate, expressing friendliness and informing them proactively might be better.

This could allow the Heavenly Sword Sect to recall troops prepared against Jin Kingdom, using them to support Yue Country.

Of course, whether the Heavenly Sword Sect trusts him is another matter.

"Husband, despite our agreement with the Heavenly Sword Sect and Absolute Sword True Monarch, there isn’t much trust between us."

"Sending this message over, without a quick agreement to bolster mutual trust, might provoke the Heavenly Sword Sect’s greater apprehension..."
