Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 572: Chapter 259: Huge Harvest, Possession, and a Terrifying Existence (Part 3)

Judging from this bottle.

Countless male cultivators have died at the hands of Chun Erniang.

Fu Changsheng cast techniques into each box, and as each box was unlocked.

The first thing that caught his eye was a variety of array materials, including Spirit Crystal Sand that emitted a faint glow. This is a key material for setting up Tier Two Arrays, each grain brimming with rich Spiritual Qi. There was also Spirit Pattern Wood, its body covered with mysterious patterns, which were runes capable of guiding the flow of Spiritual Qi. Beside it were stacks of Array Flags, with complex array patterns embroidered on them, clearly of exquisite quality, carefully refined by Chun Erniang.

Looking at those array books, each exuding an ancient aura. Some books had pages that had already yellowed, recording long-lost Tier Two Arrays, from attack arrays to defense arrays, from trapping arrays to illusion arrays, everything was there.

Yu Qingru’s eyes sparkled:

”Changsheng, could I transcribe a copy of these array books?”

”Hmm, if you find any of the array materials useful, feel free to take them as well.”

Yu Qingru nodded with a smile.

However, she knew her limits. After all, the Seven Strange People of Lingnan were all killed by Autumn Cicada, so she naturally wouldn’t greedily take away these array materials:

”Changsheng, I’ll head to the study room first to copy these array books and techniques.”

Saying this.

Yu Qingru backed away automatically.

Leaving the space to Fu Changsheng.

Clearly.

Even though the two were married and had two children, they belonged to different clans, and Yu Qingru clearly knew where the line was.

Yu Qingru also handed the Human Emperor Banner to Fu Changsheng.

After taking it, Fu Changsheng’s gaze fell on a box with a white stone pattern.

With a sweep of his Divine Sense.

He discovered it contained as much as forty thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones.

With a wave of his sleeve.

He unceremoniously put them into his storage bag.

These spiritual materials, he naturally couldn’t use himself, so he would contribute them to the clan’s treasury upon returning.

As soon as that thought arose.

A familiar mechanical voice suddenly echoed in his Sea of Divine Sense:

”Ding”

”You’ve contributed a number of array books and materials to the clan, earning eight hundred and sixty Clan Contribution Points.”

Straight after.

The clan contribution points displayed on the panel instantly updated to nine thousand two hundred and fifty.

Fu Changsheng’s eyes lit up, and he immediately formed hand seals, chanting under his breath. With a flash of Spirit Light, the Restriction on the Five Storage Bags of the Seven Strange People of Lingnan was simultaneously lifted, and the five storage bags opened all at once.

In an instant, a dazzling light shot up to the sky, mingling the aura of various Tier Two Spiritual Materials.

Among them.

The total Spirit Stones of the five reached in excess of one hundred fifty thousand.

More than a dozen bottles of Tier Two Spirit Pills.

However.

To his surprise.

Each of the storage bags of the quintuplets contained a Quasi-Tier Three or Tier Three Low-Grade Spiritual Object:

”Is this a Spirit Crystal Cluster?”

Fu Changsheng closely examined the crystal flower in his hand.

Discovering that these Spirit Crystal Clusters resembled blooming crystal flowers, each ”petal” being a piece of pure Spirit Crystal, they interconnected and emitted strong spiritual Qi, forming Spirit Patterns in the air:

”These Spirit Crystal Clusters could be for Molan.”

The Spirit Crystal Cluster is of Ice Attribute.

Used for the Sacrificial Refinement of one’s Lifebound Spiritual Artifact, it can enhance the artifact’s power by nearly twenty percent.

Fu Changsheng’s gaze fell on another piece of Spirit Wood Vine.

This Spirit Wood Vine seemed to be alive, writhing in the air.

Its vine body was covered with green Spirit Patterns, each leaf twinkling with a vibrant green light, emitting refreshing Wood Spiritual Qi, with some small vines attempting to entwine surrounding objects:

”What exactly is the use of this Spirit Wood Vine?”

Fu Changsheng couldn’t seem to recall its name.

Reflecting for a moment.

Found no relevant record in the ancient books he had perused.

He promptly put it back into the box.

Planning to let Fairy Lady Cai and Gan Shenglin study it, as these two were experts in Spirit Plant cultivation.

After finishing inventorying the quintuplets’ storage bags.

The clan contribution points had already climbed to ten thousand!

Fu Changsheng’s attention turned to Qiu Shou’e’s storage bag, as intelligence suggested that Qiu Shou’e had an unknown secret, sparking his curiosity about it.

Directing his Divine Sense onto the storage bag.

Fu Changsheng murmured softly:

”Hmm, this....”

The Spiritual Brand on the storage bag was still intact.

But Qiu Shou’e had evidently perished, meaning the Spiritual Brand should have dissipated as well:

”What’s going on here?”

To be on the safe side.

Fu Changsheng waved his sleeve, and the Human Emperor Banner blew a chilling wind, followed by a graceful figure flashing out, none other than Autumn Cicada, who was now at a Quasi-Tier Three level with no trace of Ghost Qi, though it had been ten years since they last met.

At this time, Autumn Cicada’s tier had surpassed that of Fu Changsheng.

However.

She harbored no ill intent toward Fu Changsheng.

Remaining the same as ever:

”Congratulations, Master, on breaking through to Foundation Establishment Peak.”

However.

Compared to the previously vacant look, Autumn Cicada’s eyes had grown considerably deeper.

Fu Changsheng nodded slightly:

”Autumn Cicada, release Qiu Shou’e’s Ghost Soul.”

During communication.

Fu Changsheng had especially instructed Yu Qingru to remind Autumn Cicada to remember to extract Qiu Shou’e’s Ghost Soul.

”Yes, Master.”

Autumn Cicada responded.

Her technique shifted.

The Human Emperor Banner roared with a chilling wind, and amidst wails and howls of ghosts, Qiu Shou’e’s Ghost Soul was released. At this moment, Qiu Shou’e remained stiff, his entire body bound by a Soul Lock.

Fu Changsheng said:

”Autumn Cicada, can you probe his memory?”

Autumn Cicada shook her head.

That would require specific mastery of the Soul Searching Technique.

However.

Autumn Cicada furrowed her brow, hesitatingly speaking:

”Master, Qiu Shou’e’s soul seems peculiar, more powerful than others, and faintly carries the aura of another person.”
