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

Chapter 2572: Chapter 838: Generous Gains—The Shock of the Five Poison Sect Hierarch and Heavenly Corpse Sect Master (1W1)

”As expected, a newly ascended Nascent Soul, still lacking in foundation.”

Lu Changsheng’s divine sense probed into the storage ring and storage bag of Ming Sha True Monarch, and after a brief scan, he gently shook his head.

Compared to Core Formation cultivators, Ming Sha True Monarch was unquestionably wealthy.

But Lu Ancestor was not someone unfamiliar with opulence.

Not long ago, he had just reaped a significant fortune from Pinghai Monarch, Fu Hai True Monarch, and Swallowing Sea True Monarch.

Therefore, upon seeing Ming Sha True Monarch’s assets now, he found them rather ordinary.

Moreover, the magical treasure materials in Ming Sha True Monarch’s storage ring and storage bag largely belonged to the heretical path, ghost path, having little utility for him.

”However, if you count the Myriad Ghosts Blood Pool and the entire Yiming Ghost Sect, Ming Sha True Monarch’s wealth is considerably prominent.”

Lu Changsheng looked at the storage rings in his hand, belonging to Ghost Bat True Master, Yinming Ghost King, and the other two Core Formation cultivators, and chuckled softly.

This was just the appetizer.

In a moment, sorting through the thousands of years of accumulated wealth from the Yiming Ghost Sect would be the main event.

”Fourth rank Yin Soul Wood, not bad.”

Lu Changsheng began meticulously examining the seemingly precious items in Ming Sha True Monarch’s storage ring and storage bag.

The first jade box opened to reveal a piece of ghost wood, lustrous with spiritual mechanism and brimming with Yin energy.

This Yin Soul Wood had the effect of nourishing the essence of ghost souls and was also suitable for refining Soul Secret Treasures.

For Lu Changsheng, it could also serve as an upgrade material for the refinement of the Yin Yang Chart.

After all, the refining of the Yin Yang Chart required many rare spiritual materials with Yin and Yang attributes.

However, at the current stage, Lu Changsheng thought this piece of Yin Soul Wood was more suitable for upgrading the puppet body of Qian Zhuyan.

As for the Yin Yang Chart, he was not inclined to upgrade it now, harboring thoughts of re-refining it.

The reason was simple.

When he had initially refined the Yin Yang Chart, time was rushed, and conditions were limited, so many materials could only be substituted, resulting in this Lifebound Spiritual Treasure being rather mediocre at its core.

Instead of spending a lot of time, energy, and rare materials on upgrading, it would be better to wait until the conditions were right and reforge a new one in one fell swoop.

Mainly, after becoming a fourth-rank Artifact Refiner, he had gained deeper insights into the Divine Mechanism Hundred Refinement Technique and the path of artifact refining.

He believed he could further refine such a Lifebound Spiritual Treasure according to his circumstances and achieve perfect compatibility.

For instance, dividing the Yin Yang Chart into a Big Yin Yang Map and a Small Yin Yang Map.

In this way, not only could he and his Yin Yang Dao Body both use it.

At critical moments, the two Yin Yang Charts could even be merged, enhancing their grade and power.

Lu Changsheng then opened the second jade box.

Inside lay a thunder pearl, exuding a purple-blue glow.

”This is... a Spirit Annihilation Pearl?”

Lu Changsheng’s pupils contracted sharply, sensing the terrifying spiritual power within.

In the Cultivation World, there have long been artifacts designed for mutual destruction.

Like the Yin Thunder Child, Heavenly Thunder Pearl, Dan Thunder Pearl, etc.

The Spirit Annihilation Pearl, however, belonged to the Nascent Soul level, capable of gravely injuring or even killing a Nascent Soul True Lord!

According to Lu Changsheng’s knowledge, when such a Spirit Annihilation Pearl exploded, spiritual mechanisms would sever, annihilating all directions.

Even the spiritual body of a Nascent Soul cultivator might be obliterated under such explosive power.

He truly did not expect Ming Sha True Monarch to possess such a forbidden and dangerous item.

If Ming Sha True Monarch had activated this thunder pearl at the first opportunity, intending for mutual destruction, even with his fourth-stage mid-stage physique and Nine Abysses Xuanwu Armor, he might have been gravely injured.

”Indeed, one should never underestimate these Nascent Soul old monsters; even shortly after their breakthrough, they each have their trump cards.”

”If too dismissive, one might end up in an unexpected downfall.”

Lu Changsheng sighed inwardly with a slight sense of relief.

He then carefully stored away the jade box, intending to use it as a trump card against the Sea Suppressing Ancestor.

With his Chaos Body and fourth-stage mid-stage physique, his life force was robust.

Fully armed, he could adopt a strategy of inflicting heavy damage on the enemy, aided by the Spirit Annihilation Pearl, by sacrificing some of his strength.

Even if the Sea Suppressing Ancestor, a Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivator, faced the explosion of a Spirit Annihilation Pearl up close, he would be severely injured, possibly even have his magic body destroyed.

In any event, his opponent’s injuries would surely be more severe than his own!

Lu Changsheng continued to examine Ming Sha True Monarch’s storage ring.

After a long while, only one vial of essence blood caught his attention.

This vial of essence blood resembled that of a fourth-rank Demon King, yet it also seemed like some kind of Spiritual Milk, crystal clear, exuding a tempting fragrance and tremendous vitality.

Lu Changsheng glanced it over, unable to recognize what it was.

”Golden Peng, keep watch here.”

Considering Ayoudo wouldn’t arrive for a while, Lu Changsheng turned to instruct the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng, indicating for it to guard at the mountain gate.

Anyone attempting to escape should be killed without mercy.

Lu Changsheng did not want the matters of the Yiming Ghost Sect to spread too soon.

Though it couldn’t remain concealed forever.

He still wished to suppress its impact as much as possible, obscuring some key details, such as his easy defeat of Ming Sha True Monarch.

This would not only create an intimidation effect on the outside world but also cause other powers to misjudge him to some extent, thereby reducing the impact.

After all, he intended to focus his time and energy on the Starry Sky Sea, not the Jin Kingdom.

He truly did not want further trouble.

”Caw!”

The Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng let out a long cry to the sky, its true form suddenly expanding to a hundred feet, its body gleaming like cast gold, majestically hovering over the Yiming Ghost Sect, exuding an unparalleled aura of oppression and intimidation.

The Netherworld Ghost Qi and hazy ghost fog that had long shrouded the Yiming Ghost Sect’s mountains were constantly dispersed, scattered and unraveling before its demon evil qi.

”Gulp...”
