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

Chapter 187: Breakthrough! Breakthrough! Condensing the Nine Treasure Jade Ruyi! (4)

As the cultivation technique circulated, a treasure light flowed around his chest, and the imprint of the Black Dragon Magical Bead gradually surfaced, becoming clearly visible.

The treasure light flowed, dazzling and splendid; flesh crawled as the Black Dragon Magical Bead slowly emerged from his chest.

This process was exceedingly slow and also extremely painful.

After a long time, Lu Changsheng finally extracted the Black Dragon Magical Bead from his breastbone.

”Huff puff puff—”

Lu Changsheng rubbed his breastbone, gasping for breath and feeling somewhat fatigued.

At this moment, the Black Dragon Magical Bead’s dark light was dimmed.

Inside, the miniature flood dragon was even more listless, on its last breath.

Naturally, Lu Changsheng knew that this Black Dragon Magical Bead, which had accompanied him for ten years, had its origin source depleted by half.

The once middle-grade magical treasure now couldn’t even be counted as a lower-grade one; it was only a half-ruined magical treasure.
If he continued to use it for cultivating the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art, he estimated that in another decade, once the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art was cultivated to the fifth layer, this Black Dragon Magical Bead would be completely spent.

”Merely ten years have let me cultivate the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art from the first layer to now; it was worth it.”

Lu Changsheng looked at the Black Dragon Magical Bead in his hand and let out a light breath.

He didn’t feel any heartache.

In his view, this Black Dragon Magical Bead had allowed him to cultivate the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art to this level in just ten years, which was quite acceptable.

After all, since the magical treasure was integrated into his body, he hadn’t spent any time cultivating this technique.

It had been entirely automatic.

During this period, it had also been used to nurture his Treasure Bones.

Under such circumstances, he could accept a higher cost.

He took an elixir medicine and began to circulate his cultivation to recover his state.

Just now, extracting the Black Dragon Magical Bead had also taken a significant toll on him.

What followed, the integration of the Nine Treasure Jade Ruyi, was also a major undertaking.

He had to maintain his peak condition.

One day later.

”Chi!”

Lu Changsheng, fully restored and energized, began to integrate the Nine Treasure Jade Ruyi into his body.

It took him a full three days to successfully integrate the Nine Treasure Jade Ruyi into his body, causing a nine-colored ruyi pattern to appear on his chest. ȑ𝐀ƝꝊꞖĘ𝓢

The instant he completed the integration, Lu Changsheng immediately felt an immense force surge from his chest, refining his flesh, blood vessels, and bones.

This effect was completely two or three times that of the Black Dragon Magical Bead.

The reason it was only two to three times more was simply because this efficiency had already reached the limit of his physical body.

Any further increase would place a burden on his physique.

”Hiss, unworthy as it is to be called a Celestial Spiritual Treasure, with this Nine Treasure Jade Ruyi, I’m afraid that in three or four years, my Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art will be able to break through the fifth layer!”

Lu Changsheng gently stroked the area on his chest, his joyful eyes revealing a look of anticipation.

After all, the Nine Great Divine Abilities of the Nine Treasure Jade Ruyi were something he coveted greatly.

Once the Nine Treasure Jade Ruyi is refined into his Life-bound Treasured Bone, these nine divine abilities would also become his innate divine abilities.

His strength would then see an overall enhancement.

Unlike before with the Black Dragon Magical Bead, where the ‘Baogu Method’ after years of nurturing through the magical treasure could only unleash one strike of the Treasure Bones’ power.

Once the power of the Treasure Bones was exhausted, it needed to be nurtured anew.

After resting for three days, Lu Changsheng re-integrated the Black Dragon Treasure Bead into his left hand.

Although with the Nine Treasure Jade Ruyi now, whether he needed this Black Dragon Magical Bead was irrelevant.

But since the Nine Treasure Jade Ruyi was ultimately to be refined into his Life-bound Treasured Bone, the less origin source that was lost, the better.

After finishing his task, he glanced at the Golden Armor Bean Mother in his courtyard.

Under the nurturing of the three-colored soil, initial results were showing, as the bean sprouts began to sprout leaves faintly.

It should be noted that this Golden Armor Bean Mother had only been planted for two years.

Satisfied with the progress, Lu Changsheng nodded and then rode the Iron Feather Eagle back to Red Leaf Valley Market.

This half-year, besides occasionally visiting his wife and children in Ruyi Prefecture, he had been mostly at Qingzhu Mountain or Red Leaf Valley Market.

Due to the prior incident with the robber cultivator, the traffic at Red Leaf Valley Market had significantly declined.

This had affected the business of his ‘Peace Talisman Hall’ as well.

However, the impact wasn’t major.

The main income of his shop came from the five supreme talismans he issued each month.

The total income of the entire shop didn’t compare to the profit from these five supreme talismans.

”Sister Miaoge, you have completed your cultivation technique transition.”

Upon arriving at the Spiritual Talisman Shop, Lu Changsheng saw Lu Miaoge and could tell at a glance that her spiritual power had all transformed into the Saturn Solar Spiritual Energy.

”I was actually planning to tell you this good news, but I didn’t expect you, Changsheng, to notice it right away,” said Lu Miaoge, her elegant and gentle demeanor as serene as water.

”I also cultivate this technique, so I can easily sense it,” Lu Changsheng said with a light laugh.

He continued to inquire, “Sister Miaoge, how much did your cultivation level get affected by completing the technique transition?”

Generally, transitioning to a new cultivation technique incurs some loss.

”This technique and the previously cultivated Xuan Yuan Jue are both water-attribute cultivation techniques, so the loss wasn’t much, roughly twenty percent,” she said.

”Although twenty percent was lost, I can feel my spiritual power is twenty percent more profound,” Lu Miaoge said excitedly, her beautiful eyes shimmering.

She could clearly sense the sophistication and power of the “Saturn Solar Sword Technique.”

”That’s good,” Lu Changsheng nodded, thinking the loss was manageable.

After all, compared to the foundation increase, this slight setback in cultivation wasn’t significant—it could be recovered with a bit more time and effort.

Afterward, he also further instructed and taught Lu Miaoge about the cultivation of the “Saturn Solar Sword Technique” as well as the accompanying techniques.
