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

Chapter 2823: Attention from Top Level Demonic Sects, Return to Jiang Country!

"This person must have heard some news about the Eastern Sea Cultivation World and the Sun, Moon and Star Palace, and is using this to bluff and deceive!"

"This person is very likely a cultivator from the Great Sun Golden Crow Sect, which possesses a Fake Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure, the Haoyang Mirror."

"That makes sense. This person could indeed be Old Monster Zhao from the Great Sun Golden Crow Sect, who has always enjoyed fishing for information, perhaps intending to lure us in this way."

Senior members of the Blood Sea Sect spoke up, not believing that this Yangming True Monarch was actually the East Emperor of the Sun, Moon and Star Palace.

They suspected this so-called "East Emperor" was a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator from the Great Sun Golden Crow Sect disguised to fish for information.

After all, at the Nascent Soul Stage, it is very difficult for cultivators of the same level to kill each other.

Even many Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivators find it hard to completely obliterate Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivators.

It is even more so at the Nascent Soul Late Stage.

Unless you have set up a vast Heaven-and-Earth Net and employed numerous methods, even a Nascent Soul Great True Monarch would find it difficult to kill a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator.

This means that if the Righteous and Demon Paths wish to eliminate a Nascent Soul Late Stage Great Cultivator from the other side, they must expend considerable thought and adopt multiple strategies.

Currently, the Blood Sea Sect is busy dealing with the Blood Sea Tribulation, already spreading their focus and strength thin.

If they were to lose a Nascent Soul Late Stage Great Cultivator, it would directly impact their grand plan.

However, given the significance of this matter, speculation remains mere speculation, and the Blood Sea Sect could not simply ignore it.

The Blood Sea Sect Master decided to send Mo Luo to continue investigating in the Northern Territory and to monitor the situation regarding this Yangming True Monarch.

If this person is not the Old Monster Zhao they suspect him to be, not a cultivator from the Five Great Profound Sects, but merely a Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivator undergoing reincarnation cultivation who possesses a Quasi-Heavenly Spiritual Treasure, then the Blood Sea Sect will not be polite!

...

Jin Kingdom.

Five Poisons Cult, Refining Hall.

Lu Changsheng and artifact refiners from the Three Great Demonic Sects of Jin Kingdom were involved in replicating the Little Michen Banner.

On the furnace at the central refining platform, the five-color lights of the Michen Banner intertwined, connecting with the Qi Mechanism of a small square-inch-sized sub-banner.

After a long time, Lu Changsheng cast a spell, and both the Michen Banner and the small sub-banner fell into his hands.

"Indeed, it’s still a bit lacking."

Holding the Little Michen Banner in his hand, Lu Changsheng circulated his mana and observed that although the replication was successful, the first refinement still had flaws and did not compare to the two sub-banners that came with the original Michen Banner.

If they were too far apart, it would be difficult to sense the Qi Mechanism, making it impossible to travel back and forth.

"Traveling back and forth between Jiang Country and Jin Kingdom should not be an issue, but the consumption will increase by two or three tenths."

Lu Changsheng circulated his mana, attempting to activate the Little Michen Banner, contemplating in his mind.

"Moreover, the difficulty of replicating this Little Michen Banner is such that if I weren’t present, these people alone would be unable to refine it."

Lu Changsheng glanced toward the Refining Hall, where the artifact refiners of the Three Great Demonic Sects of Jin Kingdom were, heaving a sigh in his heart.

Although these individuals are already the top-tier artifact refiners in Jin Kingdom,

Their overall refining skill is truly limited, barely reaching the threshold of a Fourth Rank Artifact Refiner.

They cannot stably refine Spiritual Treasures or Fourth Rank Magical Treasures.

"Alas, technical talent is so scarce."

At this moment, Lu Changsheng realized deeply how rare Fourth Rank Skills truly are.

Why possessing Third Rank Skills is enough to become an Honored Guest of major powers.

Fourth Rank Skills, even Nascent Soul True Lords would give them some respect, allowing them to become guests of Nascent Soul forces.

They are indeed very rare.

Not just in Jin Kingdom.

Jiang Country, Yue Country, and Liang Country, are all the same.

No one can stabilize the refining of Fourth Rank Spiritual Treasures like him.

"Even if I’m willing to cultivate them, elevating them to Fourth Rank Artifact Refiners is like climbing to the heavens, not something achievable in a short time, requiring a large expenditure of resources."

These people, having reached the top ranks of Jin Kingdom artifact refiners, undoubtedly have decent refining talents.

Their main deficiency is a lack of top-tier inheritance and hands-on opportunities.

As long as they can serve him, Lu Changsheng doesn’t mind sharing the artifact refinement methods from the "Divine Mechanism Hundred Refinement Technique".

But to spend a massive amount of resources for them to practice is not feasible.

Even with Lu Changsheng not lacking in resources now, he wouldn’t squander to such an extent.

Unless they become Fourth Rank Artifact Refiners and thereafter give up their cultivation, working entirely under him to the point of being squeezed dry, otherwise, it would even be tough for him to break even.

"Although Jin Kingdom, Jiang Country, and Liang Yue have no Fourth Rank Artifact Refiners, the entire Northern Territory still has quite a few; with my current reputation, as long as I’m willing to allocate resources, I should be able to hire them."

"Moreover, why bother looking far? I should just go directly to Starry Sky Sea to find artifact refiners."

Lu Changsheng decided to delay the refinement of the Little Michen Banner and Fourth Rank Spiritual Treasures, leaving them for Sea Suppression Ancestor.

The Seven Sects of the Ocean associated with the Sea Suppression Ancestor should possess Fourth Rank Artifact Refiners.

Even if they don’t have Fourth Rank Artifact Refiners that meet his requirements, the vast Starry Sky Sea certainly does.

With the identity of Sea Suppression Ancestor, it would be enough to engage them.

"Indeed, having power is crucial; otherwise, relying solely on oneself, it’s impossible to manage everything."

Lu Changsheng not only wanted to refine a few more Little Michen Banners.

He also wished to craft a Fourth Rank Magical Robe for himself from the obtained materials, and to refine some weapons for the Brahman Demon True Body.

All these tasks combined, certainly can’t be completed in just a few years, so he decided to find help.

"Congratulations to the True Monarch for successfully refining a Spiritual Treasure!"

The artifact refiners in the Refining Hall, unaware of Lu Changsheng’s thoughts, respectfully congratulated him.

Though they themselves each belonged to the ranks of masters, at this moment, coming over to help seemed much like performing menial tasks.

However, collaborating with Lu Changsheng in artifact refining, they still gained substantial benefits.

They hoped earnestly that this True Monarch would involve them more in refining activities.

"Thank you for your hard work during this period."

Even though these artifact refiners couldn’t satisfy Lu Changsheng’s needs, he still showed them respect.

He raised his hand lightly, granting them rewards, and then spoke, teaching them some refining methods from the "Artifact Refining Chapter" of the "Divine Mechanism Hundred Refinement Technique".

"Thank you, True Monarch, for the Dharma Transmission." One after another, they showed expressions of delight.

Though they had reached this level, where inheritance of skills wasn’t hard to come by, holding Fourth Rank inheritances in their hands.

Fourth Rank Skill inheritances, however, vary in their quality.

The refining methods Lu Changsheng taught them were extremely profound.

"Next, delve into these thoroughly, and refine these magical treasures. If they meet my expectations, I will guide you further in the future."

Several magical treasure blueprints appeared in Lu Changsheng’s hands, which he handed over to them for refinement.

Though he did not lack magical treasures, or even Spiritual Treasures.

His family, including his wives, concubines, and children, still needed magical treasures.

So, he entrusted them with versatile top-quality magical treasure blueprints for refinement.

"Please rest assured, True Monarch."

These artifact refiners immediately showed respect as they received the magical treasure blueprints, preparing to comprehend them carefully and refine the treasures on their own expenses.

...

Although the replicated Little Michen Banner wasn’t perfect,

It was sufficient when integrated with the earth veins of the Yiming Ghost Sect for traveling back and forth between Jiang Country and Jin Kingdom.

Thus, after spending half a month accompanying Nangong Mili, Meng Xiaochan, and Yin Yu’er, and then some days with his three children and entrusting the cultivation and upcoming Core Formation of Lu Mengchan to Ayoudo, a Nascent Soul True Monarch, Lu Changsheng used the Michen Banner to bring Qu Zhenzhen back to Bi Lake Mountain.

Having been out for so long, his son Lu Lingxiao and the Nether Moon Saintess had almost settled the matters in Liang Country, so naturally, he wouldn’t delay further, indulging in the comforts of home.
