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

Chapter 2626: Chapter 853: Turning the Tables, Absolute Sword True Monarch Astounded! (Double-Length) _3

"Alright, hold on to this Tribulation Crossing Treasure, and there are these few items that can be used to refine Tribulation Crossing Treasures..."

Lu Changsheng nodded and handed over the acquired Tribulation Crossing Treasure and the materials that could be used to refine it to Hong Lian, letting her refine them herself to assist in crossing tribulations.

"Thank you, my husband~" Hong Lian accepted with a smile, without any formality, taking the resources.

...

After spending some warm moments with Hong Lian and Ling Zixiao, Lu Changsheng headed to the Puppet Hall at the City Lord Mansion to visit Qian Zhuyan.

The hall door opened with a grand boom.

Lu Changsheng saw a giant metal puppet, and an Ice Soul Goddess, dressed in a Moon Soul Jue Xiao Long Sleeved Dress with a graceful and smooth figure, was working on reconstructing a puppet.

"Master."

The "Ling Bo True Monarch," resembling the Ice Soul Goddess, ceased her actions and called out to Lu Changsheng. Her voice was melodious yet ice-cold, devoid of emotional fluctuation.

Qian Zhuyan, who was the puppet itself, continued outlining the patterns on the puppet in front of her.

"Little Yan."

Lu Changsheng nodded gently and watched from the side without interruption.

After a long while, Qian Zhuyan finally stopped and asked Lu Changsheng if there was any purpose for his visit.

These days, she had been completely absorbed in reconstructing the five puppets Lu Changsheng gave her, to the point of losing track of time.

"There’s nothing major, just coming to check on you."

Lu Changsheng smiled gently, his lips curling slightly.

Even though he did not use any Bewitching Technique, the presence of Immortal Beauty Technique, Peach Blossom Gu, Flawless Heavenly Fragrance Body, and Nascent Soul Cultivation Level infused his every movement with an irresistible charm.

Even as a puppet, Qian Zhuyan couldn’t help but feel some ripple of emotions in her heart when faced with Lu Changsheng’s celestial features and kind words.

"Master, I have already reconstructed three of the five puppets, which can be used as a Puppet Battle Array..."

Qian Zhuyan, unfamiliar with matters of affection, pointed to the puppets beside her and spoke.

She stated that the reconstructed four puppets could perfectly integrate into her Puppet Battle Array and enhance her current strength.

Moreover, while researching this Fourth Rank Puppet, she gained some insights and inspiration...

Lu Changsheng listened quietly, occasionally suggesting ideas and thoughts, considering that if he improved his Puppet Skills to the Fourth Rank, perhaps he could communicate better with Qian Zhuyan.

"Little Yan, take a look at this puppet and see if you can replicate it."

At this moment, Lu Changsheng retrieved the [Faceless Puppet] he acquired from a draw from his Storage Ring.

Qian Zhuyan’s eyes glowed with Soul Fire, carefully examining the transparent, crystal-like puppet before her.

"This puppet is called the Faceless Puppet..."

Lu Changsheng introduced the abilities and effects of the puppet to Qian Zhuyan.

"Simulate the operation and breakthrough of human cultivation techniques?"

Qian Zhuyan listened to Lu Changsheng’s introduction, surprised, and released a surge of Power of Divine Sense to scrutinize the puppet deeply.

Though she had profound knowledge in the art of puppets, having reached the Fourth Rank Master level,

knowledge is boundless!

The art of puppets, similar to talismans and artifact refining, is vast and profound; each person has their own specializations.

The puppet inheritance of the Qianzhu Sect, like hers, often focused on combat or exploring Secret Realms.

She hadn’t researched functional puppets like the Faceless Puppet.

Previously, seeing the Thousand Faces Puppet Fox filled her with awe, wanting to delve deeply into its components.

"Master, this puppet is very intricate. Whether it’s the puppet inscriptions or the internal Puppet Crystal core, I’ve never seen them."

After a brief examination, Qian Zhuyan’s voice rasped: "Moreover, from my understanding, the process of constructing a puppet that simulates the dynamic operations and breakthroughs of a cultivator’s cultivation technique is extremely complex. Any misstep could lead to failure and the nullification of previous efforts..."

In the short term, she could not discern the Faceless Puppet’s situation.

It requires time for detailed and thorough research to understand the puppet’s principles before attempting replication.

"Okay, study it carefully, try not to damage it."

Lu Changsheng understood that in-depth research might require disassembling the puppet to fully grasp its mechanics.

"Don’t worry, Master."

Qian Zhuyan replied, her eyes glowing with Soul Fire, fixated on the Faceless Puppet, dedicating her focus to the puppet before her.

Even in the presence of Lu Changsheng, her master, she showed less initiative.

But Lu Changsheng was not concerned, again handing some acquired materials to Qian Zhuyan for her to use in constructing puppets and upgrading puppet bodies.

"Master..."

Qian Zhuyan felt a rush of surprise and emotion.

Previously, after Lu Changsheng slew Fu Hai True Monarch, Pinghai Monarch, and others, he granted her five puppets and numerous Heaven and Earth Spiritual Materials.

Because of this, her mind was entirely focused on reconstructing the five puppets these days, with no time to convert the materials she held into puppets.

Unexpectedly, Lu Changsheng supplied her with even more advanced materials.

She suddenly felt that she had been living a hard life.

If she had known how favorable following Lu Changsheng was, she wouldn’t have hesitated much before.

"Master, you’ve already given me more than enough materials, I can’t use them up in a short time..."

Qian Zhuyan voiced, feeling she currently had enough materials to keep her occupied for over a decade without leaving.

"Check which ones you can currently use, and set aside the ones you can’t for now."

Lu Changsheng remembered that Qian Zhuyan still possessed the bones and scales of the Split Wind Beast, Golden One-Horned Bear, and other materials, without pressuring her.

He looked forward to Qian Zhuyan assembling these materials to craft several Fourth Rank Puppets.

By then, with multiple Fourth Rank puppets forming an array, Qian Zhuyan could pose a threat to many Nascent Soul Cultivators!
