Starting From a Son in Law to Build a Long Lasting Family

Chapter 790: I really didn’t expect Master to be pregnant and successfully condense the baby (two combined

Star Constellation Sea, Riftwind Island.

The entire island seemed to be shaken by some invisible force, constantly humming and trembling, causing the infinite Spiritual Qi on the island to surge like a tide towards the central Spiritual Eye.

Above the island, a tornado-like Spiritual Qi frenzy, like a heaven-swallowing giant beast, frantically devoured and swept the surrounding Spiritual Qi, then continuously poured into Riftwind Island.

“This kind of momentum and movement, I’m afraid it’s for the most High Grade Earthly Dao Nascent Soul, right!?”

“This Nascent Soul Heavenly Phenomenon is truly astonishing!”

“I was fortunate enough to witness a Nascent Soul Heavenly Phenomenon in Star Moon Immortal City many years ago, but it was nowhere near as spectacular as this.”

On Riftwind Island, the five Core Formation Cultivators who were helping to preside over the Formation all looked at the continuously rising, unstoppable Nascent Soul Heavenly Phenomenon with expressions of awe and envy.

Every Core Formation Cultivator yearned for the Nascent Soul.

They were naturally no exception.

However, they knew very well that their cultivation had reached its limit to get to this point.

Unless they obtained a peerless Opportunity, the Nascent Soul was merely a luxury, almost impossible.

As for not taking the Hua Ying Pill and risking their lives to fight for that minuscule probability, once they reached the Golden Core Realm, very few people would do that anymore.

On the one hand, the difficulty of a Core Formation Breakthrough to Nascent Soul was not like Foundation Establishment or Core Formation.

Even if they completed the Shattering Core into Nascent Soul, there were still the Lightning Tribulation and the Heart Demon Tribulation.

On the other hand, a Core Formation Immortal Master enjoyed a lifespan of five hundred years, and no matter where they went, they were High-Rank Cultivators, highly respected and revered.

At this point, how many people would be willing to give up their present to gamble on that minuscule probability?

At the center of the island, Lu Changsheng sat cross-legged, while paying attention to Yun Wanchang’s situation of impacting the Nascent Soul, he continuously injected Heaven And Earth Spiritual Qi into the Heavenly Yuan Treasure Emperor Lotus in his hand.

It could be seen that the moment the Heaven And Earth Spiritual Qi entered the Heavenly Yuan Treasure Emperor Lotus, it was devoured by the kunpeng egg, which flowed with interwoven golden brilliant light and dark black profound light.

Even Lu Changsheng, looking at this kunpeng egg, which seemed like an ancient Vicious Beast dormant, constantly absorbing Heaven And Earth Spiritual Qi, couldn’t help but be shocked.

The Heaven And Earth Spiritual Qi required by his son was simply too vast and boundless.

If he hadn’t been on Riftwind Island, which possessed a Fourth-Rank Spiritual Vein, an ordinary Tier 3 Low Grade or Medium Grade Spiritual Land would have been unable to supply enough Spiritual Qi.

However, Lu Changsheng knew that his son’s Demonic Embryo Incarnation method was to transform the essence of the kunpeng cub into his own nourishment, thereby plundering and obtaining the various Divine Abilities and characteristics of the Kunpeng.

The more astonishing the current performance, the more benefits his son would gain after completing the Incarnation.

Just then, a System prompt suddenly sounded in Lu Changsheng’s mind.

【Congratulations to the host for having seventy offspring Breakthrough Qi Refining Ninth Layer, gaining one lottery chance!】

“Hmm!?”

Lu Changsheng was slightly stunned when he heard the System prompt.

Although the number of his children with Spiritual Root had already exceeded a hundred long ago.

However, the Spiritual Root talent of the children born in the early years was mediocre, and conditions were limited. Many children chose to start a family and gradually became half-crippled in their Dao, stagnating at Qi Refining Seventh Layer, so there were not many offspring at Qi Refining Ninth Layer.

Although the children born now were exceptionally talented, there were basically only one or two children every few years.

Therefore, without realizing it, seventy children had reached Qi Refining Ninth Layer, and Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but feel a surge of emotion.

Recalling those years in Qingzhu Mountain, Qi Refining Ninth Layer was already considered a top expert in the Family.

“Who is it?”

As his cultivation improved, Lu Changsheng paid less attention to the cultivation of his Qi Refining children, so he didn’t know which child had Breakthrough to Qi Refining Ninth Layer.

He opened the Family interface to check.

“Eh!?”

However, it was fine not to look, but when he did, he was stunned again.

What the hell?

How did he have another child?

Wait!

Lu Changsheng looked at Yun Wanchang, who was impacting the Nascent Soul, and his heart suddenly tightened.

Could it be true, as he had expected, that the two of them Dual Cultivated, and then there was a massive burst of Qi, and Yun Wanchang became pregnant directly?

Although this probability was very small, minuscule.

But looking at the System’s offspring column, the situation was roughly like this.

I really didn’t want Master to get pregnant!

Lu Changsheng felt a surge of joy in his heart.

But then, a wave of worry emerged.

Yun Wanchang was impacting the Nascent Soul; would getting pregnant at this time affect her?

After all, during pregnancy, the fetus would absorb nutrients from the mother’s body, which would lead to the mother’s physical weakness.

The longer the pregnancy, the greater the impact.

Especially since Yun Wanchang still had to face the extremely dangerous Nascent Soul Tribulation!

“It’s just a Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation.”

Looking at the Nascent Soul Heavenly Phenomenon in front of him, Lu Changsheng looked at his Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror again.

If it really didn’t work, he would let the Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror go up and help resist a couple of times later.

However, thinking that the Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror had his own Magic Power Aura and might affect Yun Wanchang, Lu Changsheng extracted the Nine Abyss Mysterious Tortoise Armor from the System space.

He hadn’t refined this armor yet, and giving it to Yun Wanchang for Undergoing Tribulation was simply perfect.

Immediately after, another jade box appeared in Lu Changsheng’s hand.

It was the Qilin Marrow Blood that the Formation Spirit of Fengmo Land had given him.

The essence contained in this drop of Qilin Marrow Blood was extremely vast, far incomparable to the Qilin Essence Blood he and Yun Wanchang had consumed.

He had originally planned to dilute this drop of Marrow Blood after returning home and give it to his children to consume, to temper and purify their Physical Body.

But now Yun Wanchang was pregnant, and there was a certain risk in Undergoing Tribulation later, so he felt that he could give her this drop of Qilin Marrow Blood to help her Undergoing Tribulation and nourish the fetus!

Lu Changsheng looked at his Storage Ring again.

However, he had already given Yun Wanchang the small golden cauldron and bone talisman he had obtained from his son, Lu Quanzhen, so he didn’t need anything else.

“Whoosh”

For some reason, seeing Yun Wanchang pregnant, Lu Changsheng felt his mood instantly lighten and become much more pleasant.

It was as if a major problem in his heart had been solved.

He continued to look at his Family interface to check the current situation of his children.

【Name: Mu Que】

【Lifespan: 19/141】

【Talent: Tier 3 Spiritual Root】

【Cultivation: Qi Refining Ninth Layer】

【Talent: Space (41%)】

“It’s Mu Que”

Lu Changsheng was surprised to see that it was this daughter who had Breakthrough to Qi Refining Ninth Layer.

In his early years, he had paid attention to this daughter’s situation; she started Cultivating very late, but he didn’t expect her to reach Qi Refining Ninth Layer so quickly.

However, with Qingluan True Monarch as her mother, it was quite normal for a daughter to Cultivate to Qi Refining Ninth Layer at nineteen.

“I wonder how their mother and daughter are doing now.”

Lu Changsheng saw that his daughter was already nineteen, and calculating the time, it had been twenty years since he parted ways with Qingluan True Monarch.

At that time, Qingluan True Monarch said that she would go out for secluded Cultivation, ranging from ten years to thirty or fifty years.

Now it seemed that she probably wouldn’t return in a short time.

Thinking of this, Lu Changsheng pinched his fingers to calculate the situation of the mother and daughter.

Qingluan True Monarch was a Nascent Soul True Monarch and a Diviner, so he couldn’t easily calculate her situation.

His daughter Mu Que had a Bloodline relationship with him, and using Bloodline as a medium, even if they were far apart, he could still calculate.

However, after a calculation, Lu Changsheng was completely stunned.

His daughter’s situation was completely different from what he had expected.

She was not growing smoothly under the care of her mother, Qingluan True Monarch.

Instead, she was wandering alone outside, full of setbacks and hardships.

“What’s going on!?”

Lu Changsheng looked surprised and suspicious, frowning tightly, thinking he had miscalculated.

He recalculated and found that he had not miscalculated.

His daughter had been full of setbacks and hardships since childhood. Her recent Breakthrough to Qi Refining Ninth Layer was a blessing in disguise, having survived a life-and-death calamity, like a Phoenix Nirvana.

“Where is Qingluan True Monarch? How could Mu Que end up in such a state?”

Lu Changsheng’s face was solemn, and he was puzzled, wanting to calculate the details.

But as soon as it involved Qingluan True Monarch, the Heavenly Secret Fate was isolated and shrouded by a layer of mist.

Did Qingluan True Monarch abandon her daughter?

Impossible, if that were the case, Qingluan True Monarch would not have chosen to give birth to this child back then.

However, when this child was born, Lu Changsheng had some doubts.

He believed that the talent of his child with Qingluan True Monarch should not be limited to this.

Could it be that Qingluan True Monarch saw that her daughter’s talent was too poor and chose to give up?

Lu Changsheng shook his head, denying this possibility.

Not to mention that Qingluan True Monarch was not this kind of person, there was a layer of Heavenly Secret mist obscuring his daughter Mu Que’s fate, most likely from Qingluan True Monarch.

Therefore, the other party definitely did not abandon her daughter on purpose; it was very likely that she encountered some danger or trouble.

“Qingluan True Monarch most likely encountered some danger, and then the mother and daughter were separated.”

Lu Changsheng had just barely recovered from expending his essence blood and lifespan to calculate the Rift Sea Mysterious Dragon Whale, so it was inconvenient for him to delve deeper into the situation of his daughter and Qingluan True Monarch now.

But based on the current information, he guessed that Qingluan True Monarch must have encountered some danger, which led to his daughter wandering alone outside.

“Could it be the Secret Realm Opportunity in Han Sha Illusion Domain back then?”

Lu Changsheng pondered.

When they parted ways, Qingluan True Monarch had said that after this incident, they would attract the covetousness and fear of many Nascent Soul Cultivators, so she would not return to Qingluan Immortal City and chose to go to other places for secluded Cultivation.

During this period, Qingluan True Monarch unexpectedly became pregnant. If other Nascent Soul Cultivators came to trouble her, there might be danger.

“Very likely.”

Lu Changsheng took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and planned to further calculate his daughter Mu Que’s situation after returning.

“It’s truly a time of trouble.”

Looking at Yun Wanchang’s Nascent Soul Heavenly Phenomenon, the kunpeng egg in the Heavenly Yuan Treasure Emperor Lotus, and thinking of the crisis of the Rift Sea Mysterious Dragon Whale, as well as the potential crises of Bihu Mountain and Great Dream Immortal City, Lu Changsheng suddenly felt a headache.

One could only say that marrying and having children was enjoyable for a while.

But the subsequent matters and responsibilities of the Family, wives, and children were truly a headache.

Lu Changsheng shook his head, trying to discard distracting thoughts from his mind, balancing the Heaven And Earth Spiritual Qi on both sides.

After a long time, the Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror in his arms trembled, indicating that a Fourth-Order Demon King was approaching from the southeast.

“Little Yan.”

Lu Changsheng immediately sent a message to Qian Zhuyan, indicating that a Demon King was attacking and that she should be careful and try to deter and repel the enemy.

“Yes, Master.”

Qian Zhuyan immediately led eleven Tier 3 Puppets to guard the southeast of the island.

Before long, a Fourth-Order Snake King, entirely black and green, massive in size, covered in blister-like protrusions, and exuding corrosive venom as it moved, approached.

Seeing Qian Zhuyan, who was enveloped in Fourth-Rank Puppet power, it didn’t attack directly. It flicked its tongue and hissed, saying, “This is the Forbidden Sea, our Yao Race’s territory. How dare you Human Race Cultivators undergo tribulation here? Are you provoking us!?”

“Blessed lands are for the virtuous. We have no intention of provocation; we are merely borrowing this treasured land for our tribulation.”

Qian Zhuyan’s Fourth-Rank Puppet power surged. She first showed courtesy, then threw out a Fissure Wind Beast’s claw, her voice cold and hoarse, saying, “However, since you’ve come as a guest, Demon King, and are here to observe the ceremony, this is a small token of our regard.”

The Fourth-Order Snake King was startled to see the claw, which still retained some of the Fissure Wind Beast’s Aura. It immediately realized that the Fissure Wind Beast of this island had died at the hands of Qian Zhuyan and her companions, and a hint of fear surged in its heart.

“You killed the Fissure Wind Beast?”

The Snake King flicked its tongue, which was covered in corrosive mucus, and its body was enveloped in poisonous mist, corroding the surrounding seawater.

Although it wasn’t familiar with the Fissure Wind Beast, it had dealt with it before and knew that its strength surpassed its own.

Especially its innate ability, which allowed it to move freely whether in the sky or in the sea, making it difficult to kill.

“If the Fissure Wind Beast the Demon King speaks of refers to the owner of this claw, then yes.”

Qian Zhuyan replied in a cold, hoarse voice.

After receiving confirmation, the Fourth-Order Snake King’s black and green eyes were filled with apprehension. It said nothing more, rolled up the Fissure Wind Beast’s claw, and directly escaped into the sea, choosing to retreat.

Regardless of whether the words were true or false, the fact that Riftwind Island was now occupied and the Fissure Wind Beast was dead was enough to show that Qian Zhuyan’s strength was not to be underestimated.

Seeing the Snake King retreat, Lu Changsheng nodded slightly, but did not relax his vigilance. He continued to hold the Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror, observing all directions.

Time passed bit by bit.

Qian Zhuyan repelled one Demon King after another.

Although Yun Wanchang’s Breakthrough was much faster than Jingqing True Person’s, there was still a limit to how fast one could Breakthrough from Core Formation to Nascent Soul.

After an unknown period of time, the tremor frequency of Riftwind Island suddenly became incredibly violent, beginning to shake wildly.

Lu Changsheng looked at the Nascent Soul Heavenly Phenomenon, his expression delighted.

He knew that Yun Wanchang was about to shatter her Core and form her Nascent Soul!

She was currently using the Qi of the Earth Vein to frantically temper her Golden Core, thereby shattering the Core and emerging as a Nascent Soul!

In the step of Core Formation Breakthrough to Nascent Soul, the higher the quality of the Golden Core, the more difficult it was to shatter the Core and form the Nascent Soul, and likewise, the greater the commotion.

Therefore, from Yun Wanchang’s commotion, it could be seen that she was far superior to Jingqing True Person back then.

However, according to Lu Changsheng’s early understanding, ordinary Fourth-Rank Immortal Cities or Nascent Soul forces would not allow outsiders to brazenly connect with the Qi of the Earth Vein and impact the Nascent Soul when renting Spiritual Veins.

After all, this would cause immense damage to the Spiritual Vein, which might take decades or numerous Heaven And Earth Treasure to recover.

It could only be said that having one’s own Spiritual Vein, especially a High-Rank Spiritual Vein, was the true path.

“Buzz buzz buzz!!!”

As Riftwind Island trembled wildly, Lu Changsheng suddenly felt a profound Heaven And Earth Spiritual Essence surge from ahead.

It was as if a phantom of a Goddess was faintly discernible.

The massive Heaven And Earth Spiritual Qi vortex paused for a brief moment at this instant.

“Core shattered, Nascent Soul formed!”

Although Lu Changsheng had only remotely observed Jingqing True Person’s impact on the Nascent Soul.

But through the pure new Nascent Soul Aura emanating from the barrier and Formation ahead, he knew that Yun Wanchang had completed the first step!

Next, as long as she passed the Nascent Soul Tribulation, she could become a Nascent Soul True Monarch, standing at the top of the Cultivation World!

However, at the same time, the Yao Beasts around Riftwind Island and the dormant Fourth-Order Demon Kings all roared and swarmed towards them.

In a place like the Forbidden Sea, a Cultivator’s magical power fluctuations are like a bright lamp in the dark night, easily attracting the attention of Yao Beasts.

Now that Yun Wanchang’s Nascent Soul has formed, the pure Nascent Soul Aura of her newborn form is even more irresistibly alluring to Yao Beasts!

Many Tier 3 Demon Kings wanted to seize this Opportunity to devour her Nascent Soul and advance further.

“So many?”

Although Lu Changsheng was mentally prepared and anticipated that Yun Wanchang’s Breakthrough to Nascent Soul would definitely attract many Yao Beasts and Demon Kings, he still couldn’t help but frown.

Not to mention Tier 3 Demon Kings.

He saw three Fourth-Order Demon Kings alone!

And the Fourth-Order Snake King who had previously demanded benefits had returned.

Lu Changsheng held the Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror in his arms, his eyes filled with coldness, knowing that it would likely be impossible to force these Demon Kings back as he had before.

“Immortal Master, focus on Undergoing Tribulation, I will handle the situation outside. This armor will be useful for your Undergoing Tribulation, and take this drop of Qilin Blood Marrow to prevent harm to the child.”

Lu Changsheng threw the Nine Abyss Mysterious Tortoise Armor and Qilin Blood Marrow towards Yun Wanchang within the barrier Formation, then instantly vanished.

Yun Wanchang opened her beautiful eyes, her expression astonished.

How did this little thief know she was pregnant?

Even she herself only realized she was pregnant when the fetus was fully formed.

However, with her Nascent Soul formed, she only had a short time for her Physical Body, magical power, and Divine Soul to undergo transformation, with no time to speak with Lu Changsheng.

Looking at the Nine Abyss Mysterious Tortoise Armor and Qilin Blood Marrow before her, she hesitated for a moment, then reached out and took them.

Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation, not a single trace of carelessness could be afforded.

Moreover, she was not alone now.

“This is a Spirit Treasure!?”

Yun Wanchang looked at the Nine Abyss Mysterious Tortoise Armor in front of her, her exquisite face stunned, as she gazed at Lu Changsheng’s disappearing figure.

She hadn’t expected him to give her another Spirit Rank armor.

She knew without thinking that this must be Lu Changsheng’s own Undergoing Tribulation item.

But now… he had given it all to her.

Yun Wanchang looked up at the gradually brewing gray tribulation clouds in the sky, feeling a heavy heart and body.

She no longer hesitated and consumed the Qilin Blood Marrow before her.

Although this drop of Blood Marrow was precious and rare.

But she had already received many unpayable favors from Lu Changsheng, so there was no need to dwell on these matters at this time.

Moreover, the unexpected pregnancy indeed meant she needed Heaven And Earth Treasure to supplement herself.

Otherwise, if her magical power was entirely used for herself during the upcoming Undergoing Tribulation, it could very likely affect the fetus.

If it weren’t for the difficulty of Nascent Soul Cultivators getting pregnant, and thinking of her son Lu Yunxiao in her past Divine Soul dream, she would even be very conflicted about this child.

After all, such a matter, if not handled carefully, could harm herself and implicate the child.

“This… how are there so many Yao Beasts and Demon Kings?”

“Impacting Nascent Soul in the Forbidden Sea is like a provocation to the Demon Kings here.”

“It’s over, it’s over.”

The five Core Formation Cultivators helping to guard the Riftwind Island Grand Formation, facing all directions, all had pale faces.

They knew that a Cultivator Undergoing Tribulation in the Forbidden Sea was extremely dangerous and could easily attract large-scale Yao Beast attacks.

But they never expected that not only would a bunch of Tier 3 Demon Kings appear, but also multiple Fourth-Order Demon Kings!

Even with the Tier 3 Grand Formation covering and isolating the external Aura, the heavy, oppressive, and Rolling Aura of the Fourth-Order Demon Kings still caused their Qi and Blood and magical power to surge, making their faces pale.

“Calm down, you just need to watch the Formation.”

Lu Changsheng sent a voice transmission to the five, signaling them to maintain the Grand Formation and prevent Yao Beasts from landing on the island.

“We heard that a Human Race Cultivator is Undergoing Tribulation here, so I and a few friends have specially come to observe the ceremony.”

The Fourth-Order Snake King, who had returned, and two Fourth-Order Demon Kings approached Riftwind Island, roaring, stirring up a tsunami of腥風 and spreading poisonous mist.

Compared to before, this Snake King was much more overbearing, with an intention to take advantage of the situation.

“Demon King, with such an aggressive Aura, does it look like observing a ceremony?”

Qian Zhuyan’s tall mechanical body rumbled, forming a Puppet battle Formation with eleven Puppets, outlining a terrifying Puppet power Formation Diagram, emanating a chilling Aura, her voice metallic and hoarse.

“What? Fellow Daoist, you don’t welcome us?”

The Fourth-Order Snake King looked at Riftwind Island ahead, its pupils filled with greed.

Despite the Tier 3 Grand Formation isolating it, as a Fourth-Order Demon King, it could clearly smell the pure and alluring Nascent Soul fragrance on the island.

If the island hadn’t been attractive enough to it before, it was now full of temptation.

“Guests are welcome if they come to observe; if they harbor ill intentions, this is a lesson!”

Qian Zhuyan pointed at the Fissure Wind Beast’s remains and said.

As she spoke, she threw out one of the Fissure Wind Beast’s legs, her heart aching.

After all, this was the corpse of a Fourth-Order Demon King, enough to forge a Four-Rank Puppet.

“Is that all? Fellow Daoist, are you looking down on us!?”

The Fourth-Order Snake King, with corrosive venom flowing all over its body, flicked its tongue and hissed.

When it saw the Fissure Wind Beast being slain by Qian Zhuyan before, it was wary and dared not be too greedy.

But now that two friends had come with it, it naturally had courage.

No matter how powerful the mechanical Puppet in front of it was, could it kill all three of them?

“That’s right, are you looking down on us!?”

To the left of the Snake King was a massive sea cow covered in dark gold scales.

As it spoke, the coral horn on its head vibrated violently, creating a terrifying momentum like a mountain roaring and a sea raging, which was very intimidating.

“Don’t push your luck!”

Although facing three Fourth-Order Demon Kings, Qian Zhuyan was completely fearless, her voice hoarse and metallic.

“You Human Race Cultivators Undergoing Tribulation in our Forbidden Sea is already a provocation. Now that we’ve come to observe, you still want to casually dismiss us? This is simply too much!”

The three Fourth-Order Demon Kings roared in unison, with a momentum that seemed to overturn Heaven And Earth, and the surrounding sea tornados and tsunamis surged, distorting space.

After growing to Fourth-Order, they could no longer rely on Bloodline potential to grow; they had to rely on external objects.

“My wife is Undergoing Tribulation. If you are willing to observe here, there will surely be a generous gift afterward. If you intend to cause trouble, since I can slay one Fissure Wind Beast, I can slay another!”

At this moment, Lu Changsheng appeared next to Qian Zhuyan, his Fourth-Order Physical Body, like an ancient Vicious Beast, fully revived and unleashed, its Aura heavy as a prison.

He knew that merely offering benefits was useless against these Demon Kings.

If he didn’t have enough strength to deter them, his display of goodwill would only breed their greed.

The Snake King and the two Fourth-Order Demon Kings beside it saw Lu Changsheng appear, discussed for a moment, then flicked their tongues and hissed, saying: “Observing the ceremony is fine, but you killed the Fissure Wind Beast, hand over its corpse.”

Although the Aura Lu Changsheng displayed didn’t seem capable of slaying a Fissure Wind Beast, the facts were before them.

Moreover, Lu Changsheng and Qian Zhuyan, two Fourth-Order combat powers, were already enough to contend with them, so they intended to demand sufficient benefits.

“After the ceremony is over.”

Lu Changsheng said so.

Now Yun Wanchang was Undergoing Tribulation, and he didn’t want to cause too much commotion and affect her.

After Yun Wanchang finished her Undergoing Tribulation, he would directly merge with the Grand Formation and forcefully activate the Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror to blast these three bastards to death.

They actually dared to extort Old Ancestor Lu!

“No, you Human Race are the most cunning, unlike us Yao Race who keep our word!”

However, these three Demon Kings were not foolish. They knew that someone was Undergoing Tribulation on Riftwind Island, which was their bargaining chip.

As they spoke, they stirred up layers of tsunami waves, surging and engulfing Riftwind Island.

“Since that’s the case, then let’s see the true strength!”

The Nine Treasures Wishful Bone in Lu Changsheng’s chest slowly surged, and the Great Luo Sword Embryo appeared in his hand, emitting brilliant and dazzling sword light.

At the same time, the Sanbao Avatar arrived with the Tihun Beast, waking up the little macaque beast that was sound asleep, signaling it was time to work.

The Tihun Beast opened its eyes, still groggy with sleep.

What was going on? There were no demonic ghost kings to be seen?

It wasn’t good at fighting these Demon Kings from the deep sea.

But there was no choice. Seeing its Master had already charged forward, the Tihun Beast forced itself to cheer up, let out a roar, and entered combat mode.

The three Demon Kings saw the fierce Aura flowing from Lu Changsheng, and with another Fourth-Order Demon King present, they vaguely guessed how the Fissure Wind Beast had been slain by Qian Zhuyan and the others.

“Give us half of the Fissure Wind Beast’s corpse, and we’ll retreat.”

The three Demon Kings looked at each other, then continued.

But Lu Changsheng insisted on waiting until after the ceremony, helping to drive away other enemies, so absolutely not now.

In an instant, the situation became a stalemate, with neither side giving way.

Lu Changsheng knew that if this continued, more Demon Kings would attack.

At that point, his situation would be even more unfavorable, so he stopped talking nonsense, held the Great Luo Sword Embryo, and charged towards the Fourth-Order Snake King.

As long as he severely injured it, the two Fourth-Order Demon Kings beside it would choose to retreat.

And other approaching Demon Kings, seeing this situation, would no longer cause trouble.

“Ignorant Human Race Cultivator!”

The Snake King saw Lu Changsheng charging directly at it and immediately roared to the sky.

The protruding pustules on its greenish-black scales instantly burst open, transforming into corrosive viscous liquid that shot towards Lu Changsheng.

The coral horn on the sea cow’s head beside it violently pulsed, erupting with golden light, forming a massive sonic wave, which not only caused the seawater to boil and roar but even made the Riftwind Island in front tremble slightly.

The third Demon King was an old turtle. It stirred up layers of tsunamis, forming an indescribably heavy domain that enveloped Lu Changsheng.

Facing such an offensive, Lu Changsheng immediately unleashed his Lifebound Treasure, the Yin Yang Diagram, which circled around his body.

“Roar!!!”

The Tihun Beast was fearless, a black mist like thousands of resentful souls lifted its massive body, its blood-colored eye at its glabella spun, forming a blood-colored Divine Light that broke through the sonic wave tsunami in front of it and charged towards the Snake King.

Lu Changsheng saw this, and the Great Luo Sword Embryo clanged as it struck out, erupting with dazzling sword light.

Qian Zhuyan knew that Lu Changsheng intended to first severely injure the Snake King to repel the three Demon Kings, and she closely integrated with the eleven Puppets beside her, outlining a Puppet power Formation Diagram.

Her Puppet Spirit had advanced to Fourth-Order, and when her Puppet power Formation Diagram fully erupted, it even surpassed many newly Breakthrough Nascent Soul Cultivators.

The only drawback was that she currently lacked Top-Grade Spirit Stones, and her full eruption could not be sustained for too long.

“Boom boom boom!!!!”

Colorful crystalline pillars of Puppet power, like Heavenly Pillars, slammed towards the Snake King, their offensive fiercely astonishing.

Facing the three-pronged assault, the Snake King was enveloped in poisonous mist, retreating repeatedly, signaling the nearby Sea Cow Demon King and the old turtle to attack with full force.

However, Lu Changsheng and the Tihun Beast seemed unafraid of the poisonous mist around it, ignoring the attacks of the two Demon Kings beside them, leaving the Snake King bewildered.

What was going on!?

“Don’t bully this Demon too much!!!”

The Snake King roared in anger, its snake tail slapping the sea, and the terrifying viscous liquid caused the surrounding seawater to emit corrosive poisonous gas, poisoning many nearby Yao Beasts to death.

“Today my wife is Undergoing Tribulation, and you come to cause trouble, meaning you will fight me to the death!”

Lu Changsheng’s body flowed with nine-colored auspicious light, holding the Great Luo Sword Embryo, with the Yin Yang Diagram coiling around him, his Aura awe-inspiring.

He knew in his heart that unless he used the Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror, it would be difficult to slay one of the Demon Kings in the current situation.

But his main purpose was to force the Demon Kings to retreat.

Although the three Demon Kings didn’t believe Lu Changsheng would truly fight them to the death, facing such a strong stance, they were still unwilling to clash head-on.

After all, the Demon Kings of the Forbidden Sea never spoke of unity; once they were severely injured, it was very likely to attract attacks.

“If the three Demon Kings are willing to observe the ceremony here, my previous words still stand.”

Seeing that the three Demon Kings in front of him gradually showed signs of retreating, Lu Changsheng immediately softened his stance and spoke.

The Sea Cow Demon King wanted to agree, feeling it was just helping to observe and protect, but the Snake King and the old turtle completely disbelieved these words, stating that benefits must be given now.

Although they didn’t value these benefits that much, if they came all this way and didn’t demand benefits, where would their Face be?

However, just as the stalemate continued, the Snake King seemed to sense something, and suddenly retreated with the old turtle and the sea cow.

At the same time, the Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror in Lu Changsheng’s arms also trembled frantically at this moment, indicating danger was approaching.

Lu Changsheng’s heart tightened, and he looked cautiously in the direction of the Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror.

From the depths of the boundless sea, a tall man with ferocious dragon horns on his head, green scales covering his cheeks and arms, and a thick, long dragon tail dragging behind him, came breaking through the waves.

“Human Race Cultivator, you truly have guts, daring to come to our Forbidden Sea to impact Nascent Soul, do you really think our Forbidden Sea is easy to bully?”

This half-human, half-dragon man looked down at Lu Changsheng from a superior position, his voice metallic and piercing.

Danger!

Although this man did not display too much prestige or Aura, Lu Changsheng felt a strong sense of danger from him.

Especially his cold, reddish-green vertical pupils, which gave off an indescribable ferocity!

This was definitely not an Early Stage Fourth-Order Demon King, but a Middle Stage Fourth-Order Demon King!

“Greetings, Demon King. My wife suddenly sensed a Nascent Soul Opportunity, and it was truly out of necessity that she chose this place to Breakthrough, with absolutely no intention of provocation.”

Lu Changsheng’s expression remained unchanged as he cupped his hands and spoke.

If he could, he naturally wouldn’t want to conflict with the Demon King before him.

“Truly a loving couple.”

The half-dragon, half-human man grinned, his scale-covered face giving off a ferocious and terrifying impression.

He then continued: “Forty years ago, there was also a couple, just like you, who brought several Sea Kings to Undergo Tribulation in the Forbidden Sea.”

“They told me back then that a couple might come to Undergo Tribulation in the future, I wonder if it’s you?”

The Dragon Man’s vertical pupils gleamed with a cold light as he spoke grimly.

“Hm!?”

Lu Changsheng’s expression was startled and surprised upon hearing this.

Who could possibly deduce events decades in the future?

Even with his Fourth-Order Diviner skills, he wouldn’t dare to make such a deduction.

“They said that if I encountered you and offered help, gaining a favor, it would be beneficial to me.”

The Dragon Man’s face was fierce and hideous, as he grinned, revealing sharp, interlocking, bone-white teeth.

“I don’t know if the people the Demon King spoke of are my wife and I, but if the Demon King is willing to observe and deter the enemies, I, Lu Changsheng, can owe the Demon King a favor.”

Lu Changsheng’s expression remained unchanged as he spoke frankly.

The Dragon Man before him possessed extraordinary strength. In the current situation, Lu Changsheng would definitely avoid a fight if possible.

Otherwise, once they clashed, even if he repelled him, he would be overly exhausted.

“Lu Changsheng?”

The Dragon Man, whose hand was covered in green scales, rubbed his chin, then shook his head and said, “You are not the person I am waiting for. The people I am waiting for are named Wang Lin and Li Muwan.”

Lu Changsheng’s pupils suddenly constricted upon hearing this, then he said in a deep voice, “Are the couple the Demon King mentioned named Meng Wuhen and Yunmeng?”

Wang Lin and Li Muwan were the aliases he used in Great Dream Immortal City. The Dragon Man before him, being far away in the Forbidden Sea, absolutely couldn’t have known this.

However, his mention of these names, along with a couple from over forty years ago, made him think of Meng Wuhen and his wife.

Forty-seven years ago, he traded with Meng Wuhen and his wife to acquire Great Dream Immortal City.

After completing the transaction and preparing for several months, the two quietly departed, their whereabouts unknown.

Lu Changsheng and Honglian speculated that the couple likely came from the East Sea Cultivation World and had returned there after leaving.

“Hmm, you know them?”

The Dragon Man said, somewhat surprised, upon hearing this.

“Indeed, Wang Lin and Li Muwan were the names I once used. Are the couple the Demon King spoke of Fellow Daoist Wuhen and Fellow Daoist Yunmeng?”

Lu Changsheng said in a deep voice, marveling in his heart at the methods of Meng Wuhen and his wife.

As Core Formation cultivators, they dared to come to the Forbidden Sea to undergo Tribulation?

And they even deduced that he would appear here?

This was simply inconceivable!

Even as a Fourth-Order Diviner, he would find it difficult to achieve this.

“I guessed you were the person they spoke of; you both have a mirror.”

The Dragon Man grinned grimly, his greenish-gold vertical pupils seemingly peering into the Sun Moon Two-Phases Profound Light Mirror in Lu Changsheng’s embrace.

He then continued, “Since that’s the case, this King will act as your Protector here. You’ll owe this King a favor, is that alright?”

“No problem. May I ask the Demon King’s esteemed name?”

Lu Changsheng inquired.

“Green Flood Dragon King!”

The Dragon Man’s voice was clangorous and piercing, like the clashing of metal and stone, filled with majestic Aura.

“May I ask Dragon King, when Fellow Daoist Wuhen and Fellow Daoist Yunmeng underwent Tribulation here, how did they deal with the attacking Yao Beasts?”

Lu Changsheng gestured for Qian Zhuyan and Tihun Beast to rest, then asked the Green Flood Dragon King before him.

“Naturally, they gave me sufficient benefits.”

The Green Flood Dragon King grinned, his two rows of interlocking sharp teeth glinting with a cold light.

“Then, may I ask what the Dragon King wishes to obtain from me?”

Lu Changsheng continued to inquire.

“My sister was severely injured years ago and is now frozen by this King. They said you could save her, so after you Breakthrough to Nascent Soul, you need to heal my sister.”

The Green Flood Dragon King scrutinized Lu Changsheng, as if wanting to know if he truly possessed this ability.

“Save a person? No, save a dragon?”

Old Ancestor Lu was stunned.

Although he called himself a medical sage, this was truly the first time he had encountered such a matter.

However, the Peach Blossom Gu deep within his mind seemed to awaken at this moment, sensing a mysterious ‘peach blossom luck’.

“???”

Lu Changsheng immediately suppressed the Peach Blossom Gu, telling it not to speak unnecessarily.

Even if it wanted to observe ‘peach blossom luck’, it should at least look at the person’s appearance. With the Dragon’s current appearance, could its sister be beautiful?

He mused for a moment and said, “Lu does indeed know some secret healing arts. I am willing to try afterward.”

“Not try, you must save her!”

The Green Flood Dragon King’s cold and cruel vertical pupils immediately showed an unparalleled ferocity, and his voice was sonorous, as if he wanted to devour Lu Changsheng before him.

“For such matters, I can only say I will do my best; I cannot guarantee it completely.”

Lu Changsheng’s robes fluttered, his figure stood tall and unmoving, as he cupped his fists and spoke.

“Hmm, your words reassure this King greatly. Otherwise, this King has already killed many Cultivators who claimed they could save my sister without even seeing her condition.”

The Green Flood Dragon King grinned, his face covered in green scales, looking ferocious and terrifying.

“…”

Lu Changsheng was somewhat speechless.

However, he didn’t mind.

Although these transformed Demon Kings possessed sentience, they couldn’t be measured by the standards of Human Race Cultivators.

Their savage and capricious nature was quite normal.

He then inquired about Meng Wuhen and his wife from the Green Flood Dragon King.

After all, the situation with this couple was truly astonishing.

From their Core Formation cultivation years ago, hunting the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, to assaulting Nascent Soul in the Forbidden Sea, and even deducing that he might undergo Tribulation here in the future—it was simply inconceivable.

However, the Green Flood Dragon King didn’t know much about Meng Wuhen and his wife, only that there was a transaction years ago, and they headed towards the deep sea after their Breakthrough.

“Why aren’t you going to Breakthrough, or have you already completed your Breakthrough?”

At this moment, the Green Flood Dragon King scrutinized Lu Changsheng and asked.

Although he was of the Yao Race, he had dealt with many Human Race Cultivators and could tell that Lu Changsheng’s situation was extraordinary.

However, it was precisely because of this that he was willing to engage in a favor trade.

Otherwise, for an ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivator, he wouldn’t have held any hope at all.

“I still have a few matters to attend to. I plan to let my wife Breakthrough first.”

Lu Changsheng said with an unchanged expression.

With a Tier 4 Middle Stage Demon King as Protector, he could indeed attempt to Breakthrough to Nascent Soul here.

However, he intended to find Lu Lingjing immediately after Yun Wanchang completed her Breakthrough.

Moreover, he didn’t have much trust in this Dragon Man.

“As long as you remember this King’s favor, that is enough.”

The Green Flood Dragon King was not concerned about Lu Changsheng’s Breakthrough or lack thereof. His tall and imposing figure gradually released an Aura far exceeding that of a Tier 4 Early Stage Demon King.

“As expected, he is a Tier 4 Middle Stage Demon King.”

Lu Changsheng’s eyes narrowed slightly as he mused inwardly.

With the Green Flood Dragon King present, the situation proceeded much more smoothly. Although other Demon Kings still approached, upon sensing several Auras, they no longer drew closer and chose to retreat.

At the same time, Yun Wanchang’s Heavenly Lightning Tribulation had fully brewed, and the first azure Heavenly Lightning descended.

“Buzz!”

Yun Wanchang was seen forming hand seals to create a protective Magic Treasure, then wielding a light golden Magic Sword to slash at the Heavenly Lightning.

At this moment, her Nascent Soul’s Magic Power had already transformed, and she was not severely injured by the first strike of the Heavenly Lightning.

However, just then, Lu Changsheng saw an infant Spirit Body fly out from her head, seemingly wanting to endure the shattered Heavenly Tribulation.

“This is!”

Lu Changsheng instantly understood that Yun Wanchang was attempting a Heavenly Dao Nascent Soul, trying to absorb Heavenly Dao Qi from the Heavenly Tribulation.

He quickly wanted to stop her.

But then he remembered that Yun Wanchang was not someone who didn’t know the gravity of the situation, and his words at this moment would only affect her.

Furthermore, Yun Wanchang wasn’t directly using her Nascent Soul Spirit Body to face the Heavenly Tribulation, but rather, after resisting the Heavenly Tribulation, she used her Nascent Soul to perceive it.

A moment later, Lu Changsheng saw Yun Wanchang retract her somewhat listless Nascent Soul Spirit Body back into her body and begin to undergo the second Heavenly Tribulation.

“Phew.”

Lu Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief, gaining a clearer understanding of the Heavenly Dao Nascent Soul.

The Nascent Soul Spirit Body had just formed and was still in a weak stage. Enduring the Heavenly Tribulation at this time was extremely dangerous.

Therefore, it was best to prepare a Nascent Soul Spirit Treasure in advance to help reduce the power of the Heavenly Tribulation or to help the Nascent Soul Spirit Body endure the Heavenly Tribulation.

As the second Heavenly Tribulation appeared, Lu Changsheng saw a faint Qilin phantom shimmering around Yun Wanchang.

He knew this was the effect of the Qilin Blood Marrow!

The other party hadn’t had time to completely refine it, and now it was beginning to be digested under the Heavenly Tribulation.

Yun Wanchang was very steady. After passing the second Heavenly Tribulation, she put on the Nine Abyss Mysterious Tortoise Armor that Lu Changsheng had given her, and instantly, she gained a few more points of valiant and heroic demeanor.

“Hmm!? Where did you obtain this item?”

At this moment, the Green Flood Dragon King beside him, looking at Yun Wanchang undergoing Tribulation, suddenly shot out a sharp gleam from his eyes and asked Lu Changsheng.

Lu Changsheng’s mind was alert, and he tried to remain calm, saying, “Is the Dragon King referring to the Qilin Blood Marrow?”

“Exactly.”

If it weren’t for the faint sense of danger he felt from Lu Changsheng, the Green Flood Dragon King would have been unable to resist attacking Yun Wanchang to snatch the Qilin Blood Marrow within her body.

Such True Spirit-grade essence blood was incredibly rare and enticing to him!

“This was obtained from the ghost ship.”

Lu Changsheng told the truth.

After all, among the Four Great Disasters of the Star Constellation Sea, the Green Flood Dragon King might know the name of the ghost ship.

“Ghost ship? You’ve been to the Netherworld?”

As a Tier 4 Middle Stage Demon King, the Green Flood Dragon King had dealt with forces in the Star Constellation Sea, so he knew many secrets.

“I call it the Eternal Night Land.”

Lu Changsheng said with a calm expression.

“Do you have any more of this blood marrow?”

The Green Flood Dragon King’s eyes gleamed with a cold and cruel ferocity as he stared at Lu Changsheng.

After speaking, he added, “This King can exchange for it with you.”

“I only obtained one drop.”

Lu Changsheng gently shook his head, but his heart was filled with vigilance, sensing killing intent from the other party.

The Green Flood Dragon King looked at Yun Wanchang undergoing Tribulation, then at Lu Changsheng, and ultimately dismissed the idea of acting.

When he arrived, he had seen Qian Zhuyan and Tihun Beast.

And Lu Changsheng also gave him a sense of danger, especially the mirror on his person.

Although he was greedy, being able to survive to this point also meant he possessed more wisdom compared to other Demon Kings.

“If you obtain more of this blood marrow, you can trade with this King.”

The Green Flood Dragon King merely said this.

“If Lu obtains more, I will consider trading with the Dragon King.”

Although the other party’s Aura was aggressive, in the current situation, Lu Changsheng still tried his best to stabilize the Dragon Man before him.

The Green Flood Dragon King nodded, and then the man and the demon remained silent.

Lu Changsheng quietly watched Yun Wanchang undergo Tribulation.

Although the process wasn’t particularly perilous, thinking of Yun Wanchang being pregnant and having a fetus in her womb, Lu Changsheng was terrified and extremely nervous.

Even when he faced the pursuit of Nether Fiend True Lord and two others in the Han Sha Illusion Domain, he wasn’t this nervous.

The power of the Heavenly Tribulation grew stronger with each round.

Yun Wanchang, with the small golden cauldron and the Nine Abyss Mysterious Tortoise Armor given by Lu Changsheng, although looking disheveled and her Spirit Treasure somewhat damaged, was generally fine.

After passing the Lightning Tribulation, Yun Wanchang immediately took the opportunity to circulate her cultivation and heal her injuries.

“The Immortal Golden Core’s Magic Power is abundant, and I have the Heavenly Dao Nascent Soul Opportunity, the Hua Ying Pill. If it weren’t for insufficient preparation and lacking a Cultivation secret technique, I might have been able to try the Heavenly Dao Nascent Soul.”

Yun Wanchang sat cross-legged, using the new power that arose from the Heavenly Dao rules after passing the Lightning Tribulation to promote the improvement of her Physical Body, Magic Power, and Divine Soul.

She hadn’t worn the Nine Abyss Mysterious Tortoise Armor at first because the Heavenly Tribulation had the effect of purifying and refining the Physical Body and Magic Power.

However, after her Nascent Soul Spirit Body tested the power of the Lightning Tribulation, she knew that trying to absorb Heavenly Dao Qi would be very dangerous.

Although Cultivators should have an enterprising spirit.

But her early goal was the Earthly Dao Nascent Soul, and now that she had achieved the most High Grade Earthly Dao Nascent Soul, there was naturally no need to be overly greedy.

“Heart Demon Tribulation…”

Lu Changsheng saw the grey tribulation clouds slowly circling in the sky, his expression solemn.

Although Yun Wanchang had said after their Dual Cultivation that her thoughts were clear and he didn’t need to worry, Lu Changsheng still subconsciously worried, having seen Immortal Master Jingqing fail his Tribulation and perish under the Heart Demon Tribulation in Goddess Palace.

“Immortal Master Caiyun reached the Peak of Core Formation on her own, was trapped in the Eternal Night Land for decades, and has the [Brahma Heart Serene Lotus], so there shouldn’t be any problem.”

Lu Changsheng murmured in his heart, comforting himself.

Regarding the Heart Demon Tribulation, although he had a demonic subduing calamity eradication pill, he absolutely had to use this Medicinal Pill himself.

So he only gave Yun Wanchang the Heart Tribulation Spirit Item [Brahma Heart Serene Lotus] obtained from Goddess Palace.

But if the latter failed her Tribulation and perished under the Heart Demon Tribulation before him, Lu Changsheng felt he would truly be ashamed for life.

“Nascent Soul Heart Tribulation… With my current state of mind, if I didn’t have the demonic subduing calamity eradication pill, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to pass the Heart Demon Tribulation at all.”

Lu Changsheng felt his increasingly anxious and uneasy state of mind, murmuring in his heart.

Fortunately, after five days of his anxiety, he saw the Heart Demon Tribulation clouds in the sky begin to dissipate.

“Successfully formed Nascent Soul!?”

Lu Changsheng saw faint auspicious light emerging from the sky, and his spirit instantly lifted, feeling even happier than if he had broken through to Nascent Soul himself.
