Chapter 2533: Chapter 827: Yangming True Monarch, the Dumbfounded Lu Changsheng! (Double Length)
In this situation, the Sea Suppressing Ancestor was already no match for him, even more so.
Sometimes Hong Lian would ponder like Yun Wanshang, wondering how powerful her husband could become if he devoted himself to cultivating his Divine Skills and integrated his entire arsenal of Spiritual Treasures.
"Hmm."
Lu Changsheng nodded, understanding that such matters couldn’t be rushed; even if the Sea Suppressing Ancestor plotted against him, it would take time to prepare.
And he was least worried about a delay with others.
"Hong Lian, keep this Infant Transformation Elixir. Let me know when you are ready to break through to Nascent Soul."
Lu Changsheng handed the harvested Infant Transformation Elixir to Hong Lian.
Although she had said in the past that the elixir didn’t matter to her,
during the previous attempt to break through to Nascent Soul, he realized the elixir could significantly aid in condensing the Nascent Soul. Even if unused, it could serve as a foundation boost.
"Thank you, husband."
Hong Lian’s flawless, ethereal beauty smiled gracefully: "Besides the Infant Transformation Elixir, I would like to ask for a piece of Thunderstrike Fusang Wood from you."
Having spent so much time with Lu Changsheng, she understood his disposition; since he offered it to her, she accepted without hesitation.
Moreover, witnessing Lu Changsheng’s breakthrough to Great Dao Nascent Soul, she felt a bit pressured.
Knowing that if she were merely a Top-grade Earth Dao Nascent Soul or barely a Heavenly Nascent Soul, she might struggle to keep up with Lu Changsheng.
Thus, she aimed to achieve the utmost perfection during her own Nascent Soul breakthrough.
"Oh?"
Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.
He then lightly tapped his Storage Ring and handed out the sealed Thunderstrike Fusang Wood, saying, "Since this wood is beneficial for you, you should have mentioned it years ago."
After accompanying each other for decades, Hong Lian always acted as a supportive partner, looking after the family and overseeing the Immortal City. Even if she wanted to take all the Thunderstrike Fusang Wood, Lu Changsheng wouldn’t mind.
"Just a piece is enough. I wish to slice off a small section for crafting Secret Treasures to aid in tribulation crossing and to cultivate Secret Techniques..."
Hong Lian explained to Lu Changsheng why she needed the Thunderstrike Fusang Wood.
Fusang is fire-attributed, greatly benefiting her Cultivation Technique and aiding her Spiritual Embryo Body.
Especially since this piece of Fusang Wood has endured Heavenly Tribulation, the contained Extreme Yang Thunderfire Power can be used to refine a suitable Tribulation Crossing Secret Treasure for her.
"No problem, keep some for Ling Xiao and Qing Xuan, the rest is yours,"
Lu Changsheng thought for a moment, cutting off a small section for himself from the Thunderstrike Fusang Wood, giving the rest to Hong Lian so she wouldn’t need to be frugal.
Though the family’s children could use it, Hong Lian had a higher priority at the moment.
Once she breaks through to Nascent Soul, Lu Changsheng could travel without worries.
"Thank you, husband." Hong Lian smiled radiantly, her eyes full of tenderness.
...
After meeting with Hong Lian, Lu Changsheng handed over the five puppets he obtained during his trip to Qian Zhuyan.
"Ah!"
Qian Zhuyan gazed at the five puppets before her, her eyes flickering with Soul Fire.
To craft a single Third Rank Puppet herself would take half a year, nearly a year.
How did the master manage to bring back five puppets after a single outing?
"This is a Fourth Rank Puppet."
She quickly identified that one of the puppets almost reached the Fourth Rank in quality.
Though it couldn’t compare to her Puppet Body, nor did it have a Puppet Spirit, it was still incredibly rare.
"Hmm, and these Spirit Stones and materials."
Lu Changsheng smiled as he spoke, handing over twenty Supreme Spirit Stones and some unused Fourth-tier Spiritual Materials to Qian Zhuyan, asking her to modify and reforge these puppets.
By then, with an additional five puppets, Qian Zhuyan’s battle power would reach a new level.
"Thank you, master!"
Qian Zhuyan gratefully addressed Lu Changsheng.
Previously, many puppet refining materials given by Lu Changsheng had not yet been used up.
Now, he offered her even more materials; she was simply thrilled, feeling worry-free about puppet refining materials for at least a decade, allowing her to focus on researching and crafting Fourth Rank Puppets.
"No worries, as long as they are useful for you. You concentrate on researching puppets and enhancing your strength. Once I finish my affairs, I’ll accompany you to seek out the Ancient Puppet Sect."
Lu Changsheng said to Qian Zhuyan, then asked her whether the Puppet Battle Array could restrict Nascent Soul Spirit Bodies.
He had always perceived Qian Zhuyan’s potential not mainly in offense but in control.
During his battles, she could provide suppression, interference, and control!
If Qian Zhuyan’s Puppet Battle Array could form a heaven-and-earth blockade and intercept Nascent Soul Spirit Bodies, it would significantly aid him in combat.
"Master, regarding the Nascent Soul Spirit Body, I don’t know much, only understand the basics..."
Qian Zhuyan pondered slightly, her voice hoarse: "In theory, it can be done, but merely relying on the Puppet Battle Array for restriction is almost impossible. Preparations must be made in the puppet’s materials and Spiritual Pattern to maximize the Battle Array’s effects..."
Lu Changsheng nodded lightly, recognizing this principle was similar to when he refined the Secret Treasure to restrict Nascent Soul Spirit Bodies.
Except it would be applied to puppets, maximizing its effects through the Puppet Battle Array.
Thereupon, he explained the mysteries of Nascent Soul Spirit Bodies to Qian Zhuyan.
He even demonstrated his own Nascent Soul Spirit Body to her.
Qian Zhuyan was stunned when Lu Changsheng directly demonstrated the Nascent Soul Spirit Body to her.
It’s important to note that the Nascent Soul Spirit Body is a core aspect of a Nascent Soul Cultivator, akin to the Dao Foundation or Golden Core, and isn’t casually shown to others.
For a moment, she felt an unparalleled sense of trust washing over her, deeply moved.
"Little Yan, you can focus your future Puppet Battle Array research in this area..."
Lu Changsheng spoke warmly.
...
Subsequently, Lu Changsheng stayed in the Great Dream Immortal City, cultivating to restore his state.
Even though the Spirit Vein at the City Lord Mansion was already Third Rank Top Level, nearly reaching Quasi-Fourth Rank, it still fell far short of his cultivation needs.
