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

Chapter 1852: 477: 1,000 Zhuyan, Ancient Puppet Sect!

”So this is the puppet with soul consciousness you encountered in the secret realm, husband?”

Hong Lian’s crystal-clear beautiful eyes glimmered with a hint of crimson, scrutinizing the puppet before her.

She knew little about the art of puppetry.

But she had heard that certain puppet forces possessed soul injection techniques, capable of infusing puppet spirits, granting them some level of awareness.

Alternatively, like nurturing a Spiritual Treasure, they could cultivate a puppet to possess a spirit akin to an artifact spirit.

Yet either method was extremely rare and uncommon.

”Yes, this is the puppet.”

Lu Changsheng nodded, raising his palm, intending to undo the sealing talisman and the ropes binding the puppet.

”Husband, since this puppet possesses soul consciousness, perhaps you should first impose a prohibition on its soul to prevent any contingencies later.” .

Hong Lian promptly reminded, her voice gentle and melodious.
”Indeed.”

The circumstances were pressing at the time, and Lu Changsheng merely sealed the puppet with magical treasures, without taking many measures.

Immediately, he formed a gesture incantation with both hands, and the Taiyi Divine Soul, resembling a golden figure between his brows, emerged, casting the ”Six Desires Heart Demon Technique” to set a soul prohibition on the seemingly dormant puppet before him.

After performing the ”Six Desires Heart Demon Technique”, Lu Changsheng frowned slightly, feeling the effect was somewhat lacking.

He hadn’t spent time cultivating this technique, so the soul prohibition he set up was fairly mediocre, only affecting Nascent Soul Cultivators.

He then swiftly employed a soul secret technique from the ”Myriad Calamities Poison Spirit Secret Scripture”.

Though Lu Changsheng hadn’t cultivated this technique either, his Chaos Body fused with the Calamitous Poison Body, allowing him to employ the secret technique easily.

In an instant, the Yin Yang Magic Power surged, a Third Rank Top Level venom brewing within Lu Changsheng’s body, transforming into a ghostly green Gu Poison insect.

”Whish!”

Lu Changsheng formed a gesture incantation with both hands, his Taiyi Divine Soul brilliant, and the Gu Poison insect abruptly dashed into the puppet’s body, nestling like a Bone-Attaching Sore onto the puppet’s soul.

This secret technique, named ”Poison Spirit Prohibition”, could explode and corrupt the opponent’s soul if Lu Changsheng so willed.

Whether it could kill a Nascent Soul, Lu Changsheng wasn’t sure, but it would certainly corrupt the soul of a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Beside him, Hong Lian was astounded by Lu Changsheng’s methods.

The inexplicable occurrences surrounding Lu Changsheng intrigued her greatly, especially his mastery of Divine Secret Skills and inherited skills.

After all, Alchemy, Artifact Refining, Talisman Making, Dragon Seeking, and his previous expertise in formations, along with various cultivation techniques, would require hundreds of years for even a Nascent Soul Cultivator to master.

”It’s done.”

Lu Changsheng completed the prohibition measures, nodded satisfied, and then released all the prohibitions on the puppet.

”Buzz buzz buzz—”

Soon after, a crisp sound emanated from the dormant puppet’s body, akin to a sophisticated war machine starting up.

In the hollow, dark eye sockets, two flames of soul slowly ignited, exuding a faint soul wave.

”Ghost Dao Puppet? No, it doesn’t have the aura of a ghost cultivator, just similar.....”

Hong Lian sensed the wave, furrowing her delicate brows, closely inspecting the puppet before them.

However, once the puppet’s Qi Mechanism slightly awakened, it fell back into silence, motionless.

”?”

Lu Changsheng gazed at the puppet, speaking calmly: ”Since you possess soul consciousness, you should be aware of your situation. Why not make yourself known?”

The puppet remained silent, with no response.

”During the secret realm, upon seeing your master perish, you managed to escape alone, even commanding twelve puppets to self-destruct, and exhibited soul fluctuations. It seems quite similar to us cultivators, so I’m fairly curious about your situation.”

”If you wish to continue living, speak. If harboring death wish, I can also fulfill you.”

Lu Changsheng continued, his voice serene and indifferent.

”It’s you!”

The puppet’s pupils burned with dark flames, looking at Lu Changsheng, instantly recognizing him as the man who killed Shi Xuan and captured her in the secret realm.

”You captured me alive, what do you plan? Is it simply to understand my situation?”

The puppet continued, its voice rasping like sandpaper, eerie and threadbare, hinting at a female tone.

”Depends on your performance.”

Lu Changsheng smiled indifferently, yet he couldn’t help but wonder if this puppet was indeed a female.

If she were similar to the Thousand Faces Puppet Fox, transformed by a former puppet path genius who refined his wife, could he ever reconcile with her?

Though her words seemed devoid of deep-seated animosity...

Qian Zhuyan remained silent, saying nothing.

If she could choose, she naturally wanted to live well and avenge her enemies.

But now in the opponent’s hands, she had no choice.

Through the previous methods and the clinging Bone-Attaching Sore on her soul, she knew even self-destruction was difficult.

”I too understand a bit about puppetry, able to nurture simple consciousness at most, hence my curiosity about your condition.”

”As long as you can enlighten me, releasing you is not out of the question.”

Lu Changsheng spoke nonchalantly, his tone listless, as if out of mere interest.

”I transformed half my soul into puppet spirit, perfectly merging with this puppet, thus retaining soul consciousness.”

The puppet spoke, its hoarse, chilling voice carrying a hint of frost.

”Transforming half your soul into puppet spirit!?”

Both Lu Changsheng and even Hong Lian were shocked upon hearing this.

A ruthless person indeed.

This was absolutely a ruthless person.

To actually transform half one’s soul into a puppet spirit.
