Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 373: Chapter 201: Exotic Treasure Acquired, Calamity Diverted East, Dead Volcano

The two of them were both tempted!

Ghost Immortal Lady took a step back:

”Fellow Daoist Liang, we’ve just entered the secret realm, there are countless treasures inside. Since it’s you who discovered this treasure and I who opened it up, how about a sixty-forty split, with you getting sixty?”

”Madam Lin, you would be at a big disadvantage then.”

Liang Zhitang chuckled:

”Then let this star stone be split in two.”

With that,

Liang Zhitang moved his mind, and the Suzhi Saber roared out from his body. As he infused a Technique into the saber, it emitted a dazzling light.

Immediately after,

Three saber beams howled out.

They slashed down at the star stone with lightning speed.

Upon seeing this, Ghost Immortal Lady’s originally defensive heart slightly relaxed for a moment, suddenly, she was shocked:

”Something’s wrong!”

The star stone is impervious to swords and spears.

A Tier Two Spiritual Artifact couldn’t cut it at all.

Since Liang Zhitang knew about the star stone, he naturally understood this principle.

Ghost Immortal Lady immediately retreated.

But everything was already too late.

It turned out that the three saber beams of the Suzhi Saber, which seemed to be slashing at the star stone, were in fact just an illusion. The true three saber beams actually burst out from the ground beneath where Ghost Immortal Lady was standing.

With a ”crack” sound.

The yellow light shield on Ghost Immortal Lady shattered.

The three saber beams aimed straight at her brow!

They were about to fall.

With a ”bang” sound!

A cyan light suddenly appeared on Ghost Immortal Lady’s body, and then she instantly disappeared from her original spot:

”Trying to run, dream on!”

Liang Zhitang, being at the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment, was not on the same level as Ghost Immortal Lady, who was only at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment. Liang Zhitang slapped a talisman on himself, and his escape speed instantly increased.

Whoosh Whoosh!

Two beams of light shot out from the ground.

The Suzhi Saber in Liang Zhitang’s hand whistled and instantly flew out of his hand, moving even faster than the cyan light, slashing down in mid-air.

A scream echoed.

Blood splattered everywhere.

One of Ghost Immortal Lady’s arms was severed, her form staggered in the air, and a crazed look flashed in her eyes. Instead of retreating, she advanced, changed direction, and her ten fingers fired continuously.

Needle-like Flower Sacrificial Needles rained down like a downpour.

Liang Zhitang’s pupils contracted, and he had no choice but to summon back the Suzhi Saber. The saber danced fiercely, its afterimages forming a light shield.

Ding ding ding.

The Flower Sacrificial Needles shot into the light shield.

With a cracking sound, the light shield shattered!

Liang Zhitang was stunned.

He hadn’t expected Ghost Immortal Lady’s Lifebound Spiritual Artifact, the Flower Sacrificial Needles, to be so numerous. Not daring to underestimate her, he stepped back quickly, suddenly feeling a sharp pain in his left arm.

He had inadvertently been grazed by one of the Flower Sacrificial Needles.

Liang Zhitang did not care about it.

Ghost Immortal Lady sneered, just about to say something, when suddenly her Divine Sense changed, she quickly slapped a Flying Escape Talisman on her body, and with a flash, she swiftly fled to the northwest:

”You hurt me, and you think... think...”

Liang Zhitang’s vision blurred, and he found himself unable to mobilize his mana:

”The Flower Sacrificial Needles are poisoned!”

This hideous woman’s heart is truly sinister.

When he regained his composure,

there was no trace of Ghost Immortal Lady.

He wanted to flatten the entire Lin Family so that Ghost Immortal Lady would regret today’s actions!

Liang Zhitang trembled as he hurriedly took out a pill bottle from his sleeve, about to swallow a pill. Suddenly, he felt a chill at his neck, and as he reached up, he saw a torrent of blood gushing from his neck:

”What on earth is going on?!”

Liang Zhitang’s head fell heavily to the ground with a thud.

Until his death.

He never saw the assassin hiding in the shadows.

At this moment.

A rainbow light sped over from a distance, landing on Ant Hill. It was Fu Changsheng, who had arrived after receiving the information. With a wave of his hand, the storage bag on Liang Zhitang’s body and the Suzhi Saber that had fallen to the ground floated towards him:

”Xiaoqing, Autumn Cicada, clean the scene.”

Autumn Cicada had already broken through to the Tier Two Peak. Even if she continued to devour ghost souls, she couldn’t advance any further. However, she could refine these ghost souls into ghost soldiers to be stored in the Human Emperor Banner for her use.

The Cyan Python opened its mouth and swallowed Liang Zhitang’s corpse. At this point, its belly was already bulging, clearly from not having fully digested previous meals.

Fu Changsheng glanced at the Suzhi Saber in his hand. This was a Gold Attribute Tier Two High-Grade Spiritual Artifact. It wasn’t suitable for him, but it could be stored and gifted to a family member later.

As this thought occurred,

a familiar mechanical voice resounded in his mind:

”Ding”

”You have acquired a Tier Two High-Grade Spiritual Artifact, Suzhi Saber, for the family, earning you eighty Contribution Points.”

Soon after,

the Contribution Points on the panel changed to three thousand six hundred and fifty.

Fu Changsheng used his Divine Sense to scan the storage bag and found a Star Stone, glowing with starlight, besides the Spirit Pill for restoring mana and the Antitoxic Pill.

”This saves me some trouble”

At the same time, his eyes fell on the Treasure Hunting Device, his eyes lighting up.

This treasure would be useful in the Canglan Secret Realm, but unfortunately, he couldn’t find the Technique to activate it in the storage bag:

”It seems I need to learn a Soul Searching Technique in the future.”

With this technique mastered,

he could extract relevant information from Liang Zhitang’s ghost soul.

Fu Changsheng then took out the Communication Jade Talisman, inserted a Technique into it, and with a buzzing sound, the Talisman lit up briefly before extinguishing.

”As expected, communication within this secret realm is impossible.”

As per their agreement before entering the secret realm,

he now needed to rush to Wushan Cave to meet up with Meizhen and the others.

.....

Taiyun Mountain.

Five cultivators from the Liang Family, led by Grand Elder Liang, had already gathered. Fourth Elder Liang Zhirun, being impatient, paced back and forth at the mountaintop, muttering:
