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

Chapter 1686: 426: All Techniques are Perpetual Bones, Lu Miaoge Attempts Core Formation! (part 2)

He wore the ring on his hand, passed through the array gate, was enveloped in a glow of misty light, his figure flickered, and vanished from sight.

”Let’s wait, there shouldn’t be any problems.”

Lu Wangshu and Lu Qingxuan exchanged a glance and said softly.

...

Lu Lingxiao felt as if his body was suddenly heavy, the world seemed to spin around him, and then he found himself in a somewhat desolate and run-down garden.

Ahead was a pavilion shrouded in a hazy spiritual light, beside it a stone stele inscribed with some blurred, twisted script.

This wasn’t the current script;it resembled floral and avian talismanic script, very mysterious, and Lu Lingxiao did not recognize it.

Lu Lingxiao’s gaze fell on the script, and he felt a stabbing pain in his eyes. He then took out a jade slip, copied the script onto it, planning to seek guidance after returning home.

He continued forward and saw three bronze boxes placed on the stone table in the pavilion.

At this moment, the bronze ring on his hand flew out, resonated with the three bronze boxes, and opened them with a crisp sound.
The first box contained a fist-sized, crystal-clear white jade resembling flowing liquid.

The second box held a bracelet inlaid with six gemstones of different colors.

The third box contained a purple-gold scroll.

Lu Lingxiao approached to pick up the light orb from the first box to examine it, but to his surprise, the item burrowed into his palm like a liquid.

”Hiss!”

Confronted with this situation, Lu Lingxiao felt a chill run down his spine, wanting to struggle free, but his body seemed out of his control, welcoming the liquid in, even yearning for it.

Once the liquid entered his palm, it coursed through his body, seemingly refining his mana, eventually converging toward his left hand.

At this moment, Lu Lingxiao realized what the crystal-clear white jade was.

Immortal bone!

This bone was called [All Techniques are Perpetual], with it, not only did the strength of his left hand increase, making it immune to various techniques, but his speed and power in casting techniques would be comprehensively enhanced from this day forth.

”This...”

Lu Lingxiao was surprised to discover such a rare treasure like an immortal bone in the world, and it directly merged into his left hand.

His left hand, having been used for casting techniques since early on, was much smoother than his right, and now with the fusion of the [All Techniques are Perpetual bone], he was momentarily at a loss for words.

Likely his right hand was more attuned to this immortal bone.

”However, why does this immortal bone somewhat resemble the life-bound treasured bone formed by the ’Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art’?”

Lu Lingxiao looked at his left hand and thought of his body refining technique.

Once this technique was cultivated to the fifth layer, it could fuse the magical treasure’s divine ability effects with his bones, transforming into an innate divine ability.

Just that he knew the magical treasure’s effects fell far short of the potential of the All Techniques are Perpetual bone.

Knowing he had to refine the immortal bone quickly, he dared not delay, hastily putting away the bracelet from the second box and the scroll from the third.

Since entering this place, he had realized that by holding the bronze ring, he could feel a pull from a space force.

As long as he channeled mana into the bronze ring, he could use this force to exit.

”Buzz!”

With mana injected, the world spun again, and Lu Lingxiao reappeared outside the array gate.

”Lingxiao!”

Seeing this, Lu Wangshu and Lu Qingxuan immediately stepped forward.

”I got three gains inside, and one directly entered my palm. I need to refine it now;take a look at these two.”

Seeing the two, Lu Lingxiao said directly, handing the bracelet and purple-gold scroll to them, then sat cross-legged to refine the immortal bone in his left hand.

”Huh?”

Lu Wangshu and Lu Qingxuan heard him, accepted the two items, and began examining them.

...

A month later.

In Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven, within Changsheng Hall.

Lu Changsheng opened his eyes, his gaze bright and penetrating, his demeanor subtly different from before.

A cold, dignified, and overbearing aura now enveloped him, though it exuded a serene and harmonious tranquility, encased in a treasure-like solemnity.

This aura was remarkably outstanding, standing out in any crowd, easily drawing attention.

Yet amidst the silence, Lu Changsheng’s robes were neatly worn, and he gradually returned to his usual state: gentle as jade, ethereal, and unrestrained, like a banished immortal descending to the mortal realm, serene and natural, flawless and pure.

Many top-level techniques impart certain influences on the practitioner’s aura, appearance, and even temperament.

However, Lu Changsheng’s main cultivation technique was the ”Yin Yang Creation Classic,” rendering other techniques unable to affect him significantly.

”System, start the lottery.”

During this closed-door cultivation, five second-generation members of the Lu Family advanced to become Second Grade Talisman Masters, and five descendants broke through to the Foundation Establishment, earning a total of two regular lottery draws.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for acquiring Second Rank Puppet Skills!]

[The reward has been sent to the system space, where the host can view it at any time]

”Puppet? It’s redundant?”

Lu Changsheng glanced at the system space, knowing he could still convert the puppet into other skills or experience.

After pondering for a moment, he chose to convert the puppet skills into formation path skills.

Though a Third Rank Puppet Master was highly sought after, capable of crafting Third Rank Puppets.

Creating a Third Rank Puppet took at least a year and a half, possibly even longer.

In such a situation, Lu Changsheng had little interest and found it more practical to switch to formations, which could occasionally prove convenient.

After upgrading his formation to the third rank, Lu Changsheng continued the lottery.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for acquiring a Golden Yuan Pill!]

[The reward has been sent to the system space, where the host can view it at any time]

”Third Rank Breakthrough Elixir.”

As a Third Rank Alchemist, Lu Changsheng naturally knew the other name for the Golden Yuan Pill.

As the name suggests, it helps Nascent Soul cultivators break through from early to middle stage bottlenecks.

First Rank Breakthrough Elixirs were available in many marketplaces.

Second Rank Breakthrough Elixirs were quite rare, difficult for regular Foundation Establishment forces to acquire.

As for Third Rank Breakthrough Elixirs, even among the Four Great Immortal Sects, they were extremely rare, considered strategic-level scarce elixir medicines.

During earlier territorial expansion wars, several Nascent Soul True Men gave their utmost effort with the aim of exchanging for such Third Rank Breakthrough Elixirs.

Not everyone, after all, like Lu Changsheng, needed only their cultivation to be ready to achieve water-like smooth breakthroughs.

Like Nangong Mili.

Having long reached the sixth layer peak of Core Formation, he could still only slowly refine mana, waiting for the opportune moment to break through.

”Let’s just put it aside and see if there are any places where it can be used, or exchange it for something else of value.”

Though it was just the early to middle stage bottleneck of Core Formation, it also offered some help in breaking through from the middle to the late stage.

Many cultivators, unable to buy advanced Golden Yuan Pills, would settle for using Golden Yuan Pills to assault their realm.

This pill’s value was therefore by no means inferior to the Coagulation Crystal Elixir.

...

Walking out of the cave mansion, behind Changsheng Hall, Lu Changsheng learned that his closed-door cultivation had lasted a total of one year and two months.

During cultivation, he hadn’t felt time slipping by.

All he could say was that there is no time in cultivation.

At that level, even just starting a technique often took years.

”But why hasn’t Qingshan broken through yet?” .

Lu Changsheng thought of his son, Lu Qingshan, who was far away in Yue Country.

When he last went to see him, his son was already preparing for Core Formation, estimating that if he didn’t intervene, he would break through in one or two years at most.

By now, it had been two years since he sent him back to Jinyang Sect.

”Could it be that he’s aiming for more stability?”

Lu Changsheng pondered in his heart.

His son’s previous method of charging towards Core Formation emphasized seizing the moment;when cultivation could advance no further and sword intent was at its peak, he would rush forward without hesitation to achieve Core Formation.

With his arrival, using the Great Luo Sword Embryo to refocus himself, although Lu Qingshan benefited, the impetus of his fervent sword intent towards Core Formation was interrupted.

Moreover, with his mana foundation further stabilized, and possessing the Five Elements Spirit Fruit, he could choose a more secure approach and prepare better before making his dash for Core Formation.

”That’s still a good thing.”

Lu Changsheng nodded with satisfaction.

Considering that Lu Yuanzhong was almost spent, and only a breath away from death, he wished to see Lu Miaoge break through Core Formation before passing away, so Lu Changsheng didn’t delay and signaled Lu Miaoge to prepare for Core Formation.

Moreover, through the [Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror] Ling Zixiao, they orchestrate a fake Nascent Soul Celestial Phenomenon with the Celestial City Formation, intending to visit with Lu Miaoge later.

”Sister Miaoge.”

Several days later, in Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven, Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge sat cross-legged facing each other, observing her beginning Core Formation.
