Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1766: 449: Da Luo Mountain, the Astonished Lu Changsheng!

Lu Ping’an was submerged in a pool of translucent spring water, his presence becoming more formidable as his physical form radiated a brilliant light. Shining like a scorching sun, his body emitted a resplendent and eternal golden glow that felt truly immortal.

As this transformation occurred, the spiritual energy and the Life Spring Water within the subterranean palace began to dwindle, eventually drying up completely.

Just as the last drops of the Life Spring Water vanished, the massive whirlpool of spiritual energy swirling above the palace solidified. Dragon energy surged and tiger baleful Qi condensed, manifesting as two domineering and limitless shadows of a dragon and a tiger.

"Roar roar roar—"

The dragon and tiger let out a thunderous cry, their majestic roar echoing like the Dao Xi Yin, causing the heavens and earth to vibrate in unison.

Outside the towering peaks beneath the vast sky, clouds suddenly swirled and wind gathered. Lightning flashed and thunder rolled as the faint sounds of a dragon’s roar and a tiger’s howl resonated through the air.

"Boom boom boom—"

The underground palace beneath the mountain trembled violently. Had it not been for the protection of the array patterns and prohibitions, the structure would have been pulverized by such terrifying pressure.

"Young one, I have never offered an explanation to anyone throughout my life. Victors are crowned kings while the defeated are branded bandits; destiny shall be the judge. However, since you have received my legacy, you are now considered a half-disciple of mine, Yu Tiansheng. In the future, you may be unable to avoid my old grudges. I only hope you remain as stubborn and unyielding as you are now!"

A frail, aged voice echoed within Lu Ping’an’s mind before dissolving into a wisp of cyan smoke and vanishing.

Feeling his soul consciousness grow somewhat blurred, Lu Ping’an felt a massive wave of memories and information surge into his brain.

Fortunately, this was strictly memory data rather than a soul imprint; otherwise, he feared the violent impact might have altered his very personality.

After a long silence, Lu Ping’an opened his eyes, which appeared as deep and heavy as a dark abyss.

"I’ve broken through to Core Formation..."

He stared at his hands, which shimmered with a golden luster, and then at his body. His expression was dazed, filled with a sense of disbelief.

During the earlier ordeal, even though he had been in a deep slumber, his consciousness remained sharp, allowing him to understand exactly what was happening.

He had faced an attempted body snatching, but a mysterious force had bolstered his soul, making it impossible for the intruder to possess him.

In the final moments, that force even assisted him in shattering the Nascent Soul possession, severely wounding the attacker and driving them back.

And then...

Then the individual seemed to realize the situation was hopeless, chose to forfeit the body snatching, and instead bestowed a cultivation technique inheritance upon him.

Throughout the entire ordeal, Lu Ping’an felt as though he had experienced an incredibly long, surreal dream.

Even to him, the experience felt somewhat like a fantasy.

"Yu Tiansheng, Undying Golden Body, Dragon and Tiger Fighting Technique, Nine Cicadas Undying Golden Body..."

Lu Ping’an now understood the identity of the person who had tried to take over his body.

The Master of Dragon Tiger Immortal City in Yu Country, Yu Tiansheng, a Cultivator at the Middle Stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

From his youth, Yu Tiansheng had encountered one lucky break after another, walking the path of immortality until he reached the Peak of Foundation Establishment. Later, he stumbled upon the greatest opportunity of his life: the top-tier cultivation techniques and the acquired spiritual body he now possessed.

However, blessing and bane are often two sides of the same coin. It was only after reaching the Nascent Soul stage that he discovered the secret realm he had found years ago belonged to a supreme power known as Da Luo Mountain.

This organization was incredibly overbearing. Once they discovered his secret, they tracked him down to demand the return of the realm's inherited treasures.

Naturally, Yu Tiansheng refused, leading to a massive conflict between the two parties. In the end, he managed to flee by relying on the incredible vitality of his Undying Golden Body.

Afterward, he took on a new identity, moved to Yu Country, and founded Dragon Tiger Immortal City, slowly rebuilding his strength.

But Da Luo Mountain refused to let the matter rest. Knowing his location, they covertly influenced Zhao Country to initiate a war against Yu Country.

At that time, having just reached the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, he required cultivation resources. He united with other factions in Yu Country to fight back against Zhao Country, engaging in a long-term war.

Little did he know that during the final Nascent Soul duel, he would be ambushed by Da Luo Mountain.

Yet, having risen from the status of a loose cultivator, his bravery was significant. He managed to carve a path through the slaughter to escape once more.

However, during that fight, the Undying Golden Body he relied on was broken by a secret treasure from Da Luo Mountain. He was struck by the Falling Arrow, causing his flesh to rot and wither as he fled, and his cultivation plummeted from the Nascent Soul Middle Stage back to the Early Stage.

With his physical form rapidly failing, he was left with no choice but to seek a Nascent Soul possession.

Because he was being hunted by Da Luo Mountain, he lacked the time to find a perfect vessel. He used a subordinate named 'White Wolf,' whom he had recruited years ago, to flee to Wu Country, tasksing them with finding a genius body refiner.

After more than ten years of searching, they finally discovered Lu Ping’an, a body cultivation specialist who was a perfect match for his requirements.

"Da Luo Mountain... an ambush by four Nascent Soul cultivators..."

Lu Ping’an reviewed the memory fragments left by Yu Tiansheng, his heart filled with shock.

A single Nascent Soul True Lord was enough to dominate an entire nation.

Yet Yu Tiansheng had actually managed to escape an ambush set by four such powerful figures.

If Da Luo Mountain hadn't possessed a specialized treasure to pierce his Undying Golden Body and the Falling Arrow to poison his flesh, it’s likely the four of them would have struggled to kill him at all.

This explained why he required a body compatible with the Undying Golden Body for his possession—he needed to re-refine that specific acquired spiritual body.

This spiritual body was considered a premier constitution for body cultivation, much like those used by ancient body cultivators. Unless there was a gap of an entire major realm, it was nearly impossible for cultivators of the same level to kill him.

Not only was his body incredibly tough, but it was also resistant to evil, immune to various techniques, curses, toxins, evil Qi, and killing intent. Injuries that would take others years to mend could be healed by him in ten to fifteen days—a truly terrifying prospect.

By relying on this immense life force, Yu Tiansheng had survived countless lethal dangers in secret realms, rising from a mere loose cultivator to a Nascent Soul expert.

"Undying Golden Body, Nine Cicadas Undying Golden Body..."

Lu Ping’an whispered these names as he felt the power of the acquired spiritual body within him.

His current Undying Golden Body was merely formed from the lingering essence of Yu Tiansheng’s original golden body, making it far less powerful than the original.

Nevertheless, it filled his frame with a profound, surging divine strength. Every inch of his skin and muscle seemed to pulse with an immortal and everlasting grace.
