Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family

Chapter 1797: 458: Heavenly Mechanism Fate, Ominous Portent!

"Divination!?"

Lu Changsheng saw the reward and his expression suddenly brightened.

Over the years, if there was any system reward he was looking forward to, the divination skill was definitely one of them.

After all, this skill could be considered the standard for top-tier powers.

The family lacked a diviner, relying only on the Tianyuan Lotus and the family records to conceal heavenly secrets, which was truly passive.

For phenomena like the celestial destiny of the Great Dream Immortal City, if someone worried about being seen through, one would still ask the Azure Phoenix True Monarch to help conceal it.

Now that he had acquired the divination skill, he could completely handle it himself.

Although Second Rank Divination was not adequate for his current stage.

But a system draw could convert other skills into experience.

As long as he drew another Second Rank skill, it could be converted into divination experience, leveling up this art to Third Rank!

"Tsk tsk tsk, it really feels like three joys in one day."

First, the Sea Splitting Mysterious Whale had passed the True Spirit Tribulation and would be able to break through to the Fourth Rank in a few years.

On the way back now, a Primordial Yang Body emerged at home, and the lottery granted him the divination skill he most anticipated, putting Lu Changsheng in an excellent mood.

"I, Lu Chang, possess extraordinary talent, soon to reach the Nascent Soul stage. Spending some time to delve into the art of divination is quite reasonable."

Lu Changsheng looked at the Second Rank Divination in the System Space, and with a thought.

In an instant, a stream of profound knowledge and information surged into Lu Changsheng’s mind out of thin air.

"Divination Introduction"

"Seek fortune and avoid disaster, strategizing fate"

"Observe the stars, observe the heavens, observe fortune, observe fate"

...

"Understand its method, glimpse its mysteries, get through its meaning, then achieve unity of heaven and man, my heart is heaven’s heart, my will is heaven’s will, divine will aligns with the heavens, by borrowing heaven’s heart, perceive the heavenly mechanism of fate, access the river of destiny, thereby glimpsing and comprehending the heavenly mechanism fate related to oneself, the trend of the future, diverging paths, countless possibilities!"

After a long time, Lu Changsheng slowly opened his eyes.

Early on, he had acquired "Strategizing Fate", and he had only slightly looked it over, without delving deeply.

After all, Hong Lian had said that the divination skill highly valued talent.

If one lacked talent in this area, no amount of effort would help. Forcing cultivation would only injure oneself.

At this moment, he understood why the art of divination was so hard to master, often shortening one’s lifespan. Forcing cultivation could even lead to mental imbalance, causing the entire person to become mad and deranged.

Unlike formation, alchemy, artifact refining, talisman making, puppetry, etc., divination isn’t achieved through diligent cultivation but through insight!

It entirely depends on the cultivator’s character and comprehension!

If one’s character and comprehension do not meet the standards, even if one comprehends the method, it’s just scratching the surface, shallow understanding of profound mysteries.

Yet, having character and comprehension alone isn’t enough as the whole cultivation process is extremely dangerous.

Because this process of insight requires one’s true self to merge with the heavenly heart, to grasp the operation of heaven and earth, and to understand heavenly mechanism fate.

This process not only depletes spirit and mind but is also extremely dangerous.

A slight mistake could lead to being lost within, losing oneself, leading to mental exhaustion and spiritual depletion.

If, during the process of understanding, one fails to maintain their true self and captures heavenly fate beyond their touch, they may face backlash from the heavenly mechanism.

"No wonder so few who cultivate the art of divination live long. Even Xuan’er, when he cultivated, had his lifespan shortened."

Lu Changsheng shook his head, exhaling a long breath.

To cultivate the art of divination, one must understand the heavenly mechanism fate.

If you don’t achieve insight during the process, you cannot improve. If you strive for more insights, becoming overly immersed, it could overexert your mind and spirit, reducing lifespan.

Moreover, gaining too much insight might invite backlash from the heavenly mechanism.

"Such skill, better rely on the system to enhance it."

Previously, Lu Changsheng thought since he possessed the Taiyi Divine Soul, a Nascent Soul level soul, maybe he could advance in divination by himself.

But after gaining a detailed understanding, he abandoned this idea.

His talent is considered average;if he actively cultivates and makes a mistake, it would not be worth the risk.

"I wonder if my current skill can divine Ping’an’s situation?"

Although Second Rank Divination would have difficulty divining Lu Ping’an, who has already broken through to Core Formation.

However, as father and son, sharing the bloodline as a medium, it’s worth a try.

Immediately, Lu Changsheng calculated with his fingers, his gaze grew deep and mysterious, perceiving the operation of heaven and earth.

The web of fate centered on himself spread in all directions, intricately complex, hard to discern.

Lu Changsheng used his bloodline as a medium to find his son Lu Ping’an’s web of fate, attempting to deduce his situation.

"What’s going on? Although I’m just at Second Rank Divination, with the bloodline as the medium, it’s impossible to sense nothing, heavenly fate completely chaotic, is it not?"

After a moment, Lu Changsheng frowned, sensing something wrong.

He felt that no matter what, he should at least sense his son’s existence.

But just now he couldn’t even sense Lu Ping’an’s existence. The entire heavenly mechanism was in disarray, like boundless chaos.

"Wait..."

At this time, Lu Changsheng paused, as if thinking of something, and the family record appeared in his hand.

Looking at the family record in his hand, he pointed to his son Lu Ping’an’s name, canceling the effect of the family record suppressing heavenly mechanisms, then continued to calculate with closed eyes.

At this moment, Lu Changsheng vaguely sensed his son Lu Ping’an’s existence.

But the heavenly mechanism before him was shrouded like white fog, incredibly blurred, elusive.

He wanted to see clearly, to determine fortune and disaster, but the resistance was like a mountain. With his current divination skill, it was impossible to shake it.

"Damn it, what a useless skill!"

Lu Changsheng opened his eyes, cursing with a somewhat fatigued expression.

In earlier years, when he acquired alchemy, artifact refining, talisman making, he could create wonders with his hands.

But now, acquiring the much-anticipated divination skill, and attempting to deduce his son Lu Ping’an’s situation, he deeply realized what it meant by the heavenly mechanics being unfathomable!
