Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1765: 448: Mystic Dragon Nirvana Pill, Dragon and Tiger Fighting Technique!

[Note: The Elder’s exclusive secret potion, crafted primarily from Dragon Series Demon Pill materials, only triggers its effects during life-threatening crises. It enables the user to undergo a Nirvana Transformation, allowing them to break and stand anew while significantly boosting their physical body, magical power, divine sense, and latent talent.]
"This pill is quite intriguing."
Lu Changsheng’s eyebrows rose as he scanned the introduction for the potion.
In the Cultivation World, violent clashes over cultivation levels are an unavoidable reality.
This pill serves not only as a desperate lifeline but also provides the profound benefits of a Nirvana Transformation.
"Extract."
With a simple flick of his mind, a golden pill the size of a dragon’s eye materialized in front of him.
The translucent sphere radiated a dense fragrance. Intricate pill patterns intertwined across its surface like Flood Dragons, accompanied by the faint, echoing roars of ancient dragon chants.
"What a magnificent Mystic Dragon Nirvana Pill! To break and stand anew through Nirvana Transformation!"
As he gripped the pill, a comprehensive understanding of its properties flooded Lu Changsheng’s mind.
Despite the extraordinary power of the Mystic Dragon Nirvana Pill, it possesses strict requirements for use; it must be consumed prior to receiving a fatal wound.
If the user suffers a severe injury within one month of ingestion, the medicinal strength will fully ignite the Nirvana Transformation. Otherwise, it merely functions as a high-quality healing medicine.
"This is best suited for escaping death, facing Heavenly Tribulations, or right before a life-and-death struggle—it isn't meant for common recovery."
"However, if one wished to push its potential to the limit, they could take it in advance and intentionally self-inflict wounds to trigger the effect of breaking and standing anew..."
Lu Changsheng whispered to himself while contemplating the pill in his hand.
As a Fourth-grade Elixir, the Mystic Dragon Nirvana Pill provides a massive boost to Nascent Soul or Core Formation Cultivators, particularly the latter.
It has the potential to elevate one's talent, mana, and foundation by an entire grade.
Having reached the Ninth Level Core Formation rapidly with Ayoudo’s assistance, Lu Changsheng’s foundation was somewhat shaky. Utilizing this pill for a Nirvana Transformation could stabilize his realm and push him directly to the Core Formation Peak.
"But wasting it on self-harm just for a talent boost seems far too extravagant; perhaps it could be utilized when the Sea Splitting Mysterious Whale undergoes its tribulations..."
This elixir is not limited to human cultivators; demon beasts can also consume it, though they receive slightly diminished effects.
Since the Sea Splitting Mysterious Whale is currently evolving into the Sea Splitting Mysterious Dragon Whale, this Mystic Dragon Nirvana Pill could be used during its ascent to the Fourth Rank. It would ensure a successful tribulation and perhaps even further its evolution.
"Furthermore, beyond crossing tribulations, this Mystic Dragon Nirvana Pill allows me to fight without any reservations."
Lu Changsheng recalled the grievances caused by Ming Sha True Monarch.
He could swallow the potion and march straight to the Yiming Ghost Sect. By fully exerting the Nine Treasures Ruyi Bone, he could trade heavy blows to cripple his enemy, then flee using the Michen Banner while waiting for the pill to rebuild his body.
"That feels like the most effective way to use this pill."
Lu Changsheng sighed in appreciation, though he didn't intend to act on that plan immediately. He pulled a delicate porcelain bottle from his Storage Ring and tucked the Mystic Dragon Nirvana Pill away for future use.
Meanwhile, since his son Lu Lingxiao had reached the Ninth Level Foundation Establishment and was ready to oversee the city's governance, Lu Changsheng and Hong Lian convened an official Immortal City meeting. They formally introduced Lu Lingxiao as their son and declared him the Young City Lord of Great Dream Immortal City.
Lu Lingxiao needed to cultivate a majestic royal presence. Unlike Ling Zixiao, he could not stay in the shadows; he had to lead from the front, forging his aura through high-level management and public affairs.
Even though Lu Changsheng and Hong Lian had rarely shown themselves over the years—only acting during the incident with Wanhu True Master—their word remained absolute law.
The Four Great Immortal Sects kept a close watch on Lu Lingxiao. They were eager to evaluate the new Young City Lord as a way to probe the strength of the mysterious City Lords, Lu Changsheng and Hong Lian.
However, Lu Changsheng was well-prepared for his son's public debut, providing him with a secret treasure and a golden mask for protection.
Even so, the boy's golden eyes—though partially hidden—glowed with a terrifying authority. They resembled the shifting of the sun and moon or the death of a star, striking fear into those who looked upon him.
As for his other son, Lu Qingsong, he took on the role of a steward without hiding his lineage.
It seemed perfectly natural for the son of Changsheng True Master, the Vice City Lord of Great Dream Immortal City, to serve as a high-ranking steward, did it not?
Thus, both sons began their service as stewards alongside the new Young City Lord.
While Lu Changsheng and Hong Lian were busy guiding Lu Lingxiao through the complexities of the Immortal City, something was happening deep within the mountains at the border of Wu Country.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Inside a subterranean palace hidden in the mountain's depths, the spiritual energy was incredibly pure, pulsing with a vibrant life force.
At that moment, the dense natural energy roared like a surging torrent, all of it rushing toward a youth sitting in a pool at the center of the hall.
The young man possessed a tall, powerful frame. As he sat in the pool, his muscles—strong as a dragon’s—twitched in rhythm, shimmering with a golden, immortal light.
During this process, his Qi, blood, and magical power surged violently. Cloaked in a radiant golden light, he appeared like a war god adorned in golden armor.
After an unknown amount of time, the youth’s Qi and blood erupted toward the ceiling, roaring like a True Dragon and shaking the very heavens with its majesty.
Though his eyes were closed in a deep sleep, his muscular body operated his cultivation techniques automatically. The air echoed with the sounds of a thousand dragons and tigers, as phantoms of the two beasts circled him.
Outside the palace gates.
"What is this!?"
A figure in black robes, who had been sitting cross-legged, felt the violent shifts in spiritual energy and the roaring of Qi. Hearing the unmistakable dragon cries, he turned his gaze toward the palace in shock.
"Dragon roars and tiger howls... that is the Lord’s 'Dragon and Tiger Fighting Technique.' But wait, the wind carries a tiger's cry while a dragon drifts through the clouds. Why does this look like a Core Formation phenomenon?"
"If the Lord is performing a Nascent Soul Possession, why would a Core Formation phenomenon manifest now?"
The black-robed man watched the palace, his brow furrowed in deep confusion.
Usually, a Nascent Soul Possession bypasses the standard steps of Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, and Nascent Soul development.
However, remembering his Master's command to stay outside, he forced his curiosity down and waited patiently for the Lord to summon him.
After all, the other party was a prestigious Nascent Soul True Lord. Their Divine Skills and methods were far beyond his own limited understanding.
Perhaps the Lord intended to use this possession to experience the stages of Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, and Nascent Soul all over again.
