Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

Chapter 2531: Chapter 827: Yangming True Monarch, the Stunned Lu Changsheng! (Double-Length)

This battle not only exhausted him and the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng, but also took a toll on the Nine-leaf Sword Grass. He plans to try watering the Nine-leaf Sword Grass with "Myriad Spirits Heaven Dew" after returning to Bi Lake Mountain.

Otherwise, its endurance state won’t be as good as the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng and the Sea Splitting Mysterious Dragon Whale.

A moment later, Lu Changsheng saw Hong Lian and asked her why Absolute Sword True Monarch came.

"Absolute Sword True Monarch came here partly for matters related to Venerable Yan Hai, and also to invite my husband to assist in the Liangyue War."

Hong Lian, dressed elegantly in a red Vermilion Bird embroidered skirt, said gracefully as she sat beside Lu Changsheng.

"Venerable Yan Hai?"

Lu Changsheng lightly raised an eyebrow, having heard his wife Lu Miaoyun mention him, but not knowing the details.

Immediately, with Hong Lian’s explanation, he guessed that this person likely came from the Starry Sky Sea, probing the Seven Sects of the Ocean.

"I replied to Absolute Sword True Monarch explaining that we have enemies coming, so it’s inconvenient to leave Immortal City, thereby declining their request for help in the battle."

Hong Lian smiled softly and said, "Absolute Sword True Monarch previously saw your strength, husband, and did not return, saying little more than hoping we would give their Heavenly Sword Sect a clear answer."

She handled such matters with ease.

If previously, Heavenly Sword Sect was wary of the intentions of Great Dream Immortal City,

then now, they are concerned about Lu Changsheng dragging Jiang Country into hostilities, implicating Heavenly Sword Sect.

"Hmm, let’s give them a response later,"

Lu Changsheng had a certain goodwill towards Heavenly Sword Sect, the overlord of Jiang Country.

If he had time, he wouldn’t mind going to Yue Country to help in the battle.

But currently, he absolutely cannot leave.

"Husband, how are matters in Starry Sky Sea?"

At this moment, Hong Lian also asked Lu Changsheng about his affairs, wanting to know how he resolved them.

"I really want to let you help me with this..."

Immediately, Lu Changsheng told Hong Lian about the Seven Sects of the Ocean and Sea Suppressing Ancestor.

Since Hong Lian wasn’t very familiar with Starry Sky Sea and the Seven Sects, Lu Changsheng then gave her a detailed introduction to the situation in Starry Sky Sea.

However, upon hearing that Lu Changsheng had defeated Fu Hai True Monarch and Pinghai Monarch, and then crushed four Nascent Soul cultivators, leaving one dead, two with shattered magic bodies, Hong Lian was completely stunned.

Wasn’t Lu Changsheng just breaking through to Nascent Soul?

Even with the Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures like the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror, spiritual pet Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng, Soul-calling Beast, and the Nine Tribulations Sword in hand... it’s quite surreal, isn’t it?

Having spent decades with Lu Changsheng, fighting alongside him countless times, she was acutely aware of his combat style.

No excessive tactics.

Just openly, overpoweringly defeating all, breaking through all defenses with sheer force!

Under such circumstances, consecutively cutting down Pinghai Monarch and Fu Hai True Monarch, and then killing multiple Nascent Soul cultivators resulting in a route, and the destruction of their magic bodies.

This was simply astonishing.

Even swapping in a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, such achievements would be utterly incredible.

After hearing Lu Changsheng’s recount, her immediate response was: "This Sea Suppressing Ancestor isn’t right..."

In Hong Lian’s view, even if Sea Suppressing Ancestor knew defeat was inevitable, it wouldn’t make sense to simply admit defeat and offer compensation after the first encounter.

If they fought and Sea Suppressing Ancestor was defeated, heavily injured, that would barely be reasonable.

"Husband, this Sea Suppressing Ancestor is either seriously injured, unable to act; or cultivating a particular cultivation technique that prevents action, choosing tolerance instead."

Hong Lian lightly pondered and guessed, "Besides that, he knows your husband can’t be beaten and thus chooses restraint, inviting others to assist!"

"Husband’s performance in battle was too amazing; especially with the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror, it will surely pique the interest and desire of some cultivators in Starry Sky Sea."

Hong Lian said with a slightly grave expression, aware of how attractive such Supreme Treasures are to Nascent Soul cultivators.

If someone could control such a Supreme Treasure, they would directly become invincible among their peers.

For a late-stage Nascent Soul Great Cultivator to possess such a Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure, their strength would immediately be elevated to the top tier!

"Hmm, I have similar suspicions."

Lu Changsheng nodded slightly.

As one of the top powers in Starry Sky Sea, the Seven Sects of the Ocean naturally had many connections.

If Sea Suppressing Ancestor was willing to leverage these connections, owing favors, he could likely call upon numerous Nascent Soul cultivators for support.

If I wield the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror, they are likely to perceive it as a Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure, and a top-level Supreme Treasure, thus calling others to assist.

While Starry Sky Sea doesn’t have late-stage Nascent Soul Great Cultivators, it does host many mid-stage Nascent Soul powerhouses!

"So I plan to first break through to Fourth Rank Middle Stage in body cultivation at Fu Hai Sect, elevate my cultivation to Nascent Soul Second Layer, and then ambush him outside Sea Suppression Sect!"

Lu Changsheng’s eyes narrowed slightly as he spoke directly.

Though Lu Ancestor has never successfully ambushed anyone since his debut,

now equipped with the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror, ambushing others no longer requires his constant attention.

As soon as anything stirs, Artifact Spirit Ah Wu will give a warning.

"Hmm!?"

Hong Lian was taken aback, her elegant face stunned.

What on earth?

Break through Fourth Rank Middle Stage in body cultivation?

Break through to Nascent Soul Second Layer?

Isn’t her husband just now breaking into Nascent Soul?

How come he’s already breaking through to Nascent Soul Second Layer?

And what is this body cultivation situation?

She distinctly remembered, twenty-six years ago, when Lu Changsheng was with her at the Sea Eye of Great Dream Marsh, attempting to break through to Fourth Rank in body cultivation.

Only twenty-six years have passed, and now he’s going to break through from Early Stage Fourth Rank to Middle Stage?

What kind of speed is this?

Though she knew Lu Changsheng had a cultivation technique, named "Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art," which allowed auto-cultivation by condensing Life-bound Treasured Bone, improving physique.

But this speed is too absurd, isn’t it?

Other body refining cultivators, trying to progress from Early Stage Fourth Rank to Middle Stage, don’t start at less than a hundred years.
