Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1788: 455: Counting the Spoils, the Shock of the 4 Gưreat Immortal Sects (part 2)

The Great Dream Marsh, a vast and boundless sea, presents a significant disadvantage compared to the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range: the arduous task of salvaging the battlefield.

Most of the demon beast remains from the earlier conflict have already plunged into the dark depths of the ocean.

Because the cave mansions belonging to these creatures are situated on the sea floor, the process of recovery remains exhausting and slow, even with the assistance of a Sea Splitting Mysterious Whale.

"Yes, Father!"

Lu Lingxiao, currently occupied with his duties, looked up and gave an immediate reply.

Observing Lu Lingxiao preparing to depart the city, Lu Wangshu inquired about the situation before seeking out Lu Changsheng.

"Dad, I’ll go with Lingxiao!"

Lu Changsheng chuckled as he noted the hopeful look on his daughter's face. "Alright, you and Xiao’er can head over together."

"Dad, should I disguise my identity, like posing as the Grand Princess of Immortal City?"

Lu Wangshu made the suggestion wisely, understanding the importance of avoiding unnecessary suspicion.

Under ordinary circumstances, there was no issue with Lu Wangshu appearing alongside the Young City Lord, Lu Lingxiao.

However, since they were heading out with the Sea Splitting Mysterious Whale, maintaining a disguise was the more prudent choice.

After a moment of reflection, Lu Changsheng passed a jade pendant to his daughter. "Since that’s the case, disguise yourself a bit."

"Alright."

Lu Wangshu accepted the jade pendant and expertly altered her appearance.

In the world of Cultivation, the art of camouflage and disguise is a fundamental skill for any practitioner.

Having spent many years navigating the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range, Lu Wangshu had naturally perfected this technique.

With her preparations complete, the siblings—accompanied by the Sea Splitting Mysterious Whale—plunged into the deep sea to begin the recovery of crystal cores and remains, all while under the awe-struck gazes of the city's inhabitants.

...

As the Immortal City was gradually restored to order, Lu Changsheng devoted himself entirely to dual cultivation with Hong Lian.

Several days later, feeling refreshed and energized, Lu Changsheng rose from the bed and donned his robes.

The innate self-healing capabilities of his Chaos Body were truly extraordinary.

The slight strain caused by activating the [Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror] had mostly vanished.

This experience allowed Lu Changsheng to realize that by harnessing the full power of The Celestial City Formation, he might possess the strength to slay even seasoned Nascent Soul cultivators!

"Hong Lian, take a good rest."

Lu Changsheng spoke softly, his gaze lingering on the graceful and alluring Hong Lian resting on the bed.

"Mmm~"

Though Hong Lian appeared somewhat fatigued, her complexion had clearly improved compared to before.

However, her Spirit Embryo Physique lacked the sheer resilience of Lu Changsheng’s body, meaning her full recovery would take more time.

Upon exiting the cave mansion, Lu Changsheng clapped his hands, causing a mountain of materials to appear before him.

These were the treasures he had plundered from the realm of the Void Kun.

Due to the urgency of the previous battle, he hadn't possessed the opportunity to inspect the loot thoroughly.

"One, two, three... Tsk tsk tsk, seven Void Crystals in total!"

At a single glance, Lu Changsheng identified the silvery-white Void Crystals, which were pulsating with visible spatial ripples.

Years ago, he had obtained three Void Crystals from a sea eye cavity once claimed by the Void Kun. He had used a large portion to enhance the Formless Treasure Wheel and traded another to Azure Phoenix True Monarch, leaving him with only one to study the Power of the Void.

Now, possessing seven Void Crystals, he could use them as high-level currency with other Nascent Soul experts or utilize them for condensing realms.

Previously, Lu Changsheng had found the process of shattering the void to harvest fragments for realm condensation to be quite exhausting.

Aside from the Void Crystals, the only other item among the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Materials that caught his eye was a Sea Marrow Crystal; the rest were of relatively standard quality.

This was simply because the Void Kun had only recently ascended to the fourth rank, meaning its accumulated foundation was still shallow.

"If only I could farm Void Kuns to refine into Void Crystals, that would be truly magnificent."

Lu Changsheng sighed as he turned the crystals over in his hand.

He then proceeded to the hall in the backyard.

The Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng was still busy devouring the remains of the Rage Sea Spike Shark.

The massive frame of that sea beast provided a long-lasting feast.

Lu Changsheng then turned his attention to the corpse of the Void Kun, which had been preserved by the great formation.

While the Solar Mysterious Light had heavily scorched its flesh and skin,

Lu Changsheng had fortunately stopped the attack in time to save enough intact hide for crafting Fourth Rank Talisman Skins.

The Great Luo Sword Embryo manifested in his hand as he began to meticulously harvest the Kun hide for his talismans.

Shortly after, a translucent, pale blue demon core—oozing with the essence of the void—rested in his palm.

The moment he touched the core, the spatial origin within Lu Changsheng’s Chaos Body began to stir with excitement.

"With a demon core of this caliber, my efforts to grasp the Power of the Void and harvest void fragments will be twice as effective. There is even a chance my Void Spirit Body can reach its full completion!"

A look of pure joy spread across Lu Changsheng’s face.

His rapid mastery of spatial laws was largely thanks to the advantages of his Void Spirit Body.

If he could successfully refine the spatial essence of this Fourth Rank Demon Core or fashion it into a top-tier magical treasure to nourish his own constitution, his Void Spirit Body might finally reach perfection.

Nearby, the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng stared at the demon core with intense longing, its golden eyes filled with hunger.

Lu Changsheng ignored the creature's gaze and placed the core inside a protective brocade box, intending to use it later for a Spirit Treasure Embryo or for deep meditation.

However, seeing the bird's desperate expression, he tossed it some of the Kun's flesh as a reward.

After all, the Sea Splitting Mysterious Whale had already enjoyed a Fourth Rank Demon Core and a Fourth Rank Stone Dragon Heart, while the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng had yet to taste such high-level delicacies.

Once he finished, Lu Changsheng ceased his carving.

He planned to save the Heavenly Demon Blood and Origin Essence of the Void Kun to advance his progress in the "Brahman Demon True Saint Technique."

Further dismantling the corpse would only lead to a loss of its inherent spiritual spirituality.

"It is a shame Ping’an isn't here. Using the Origin Essence of this Void Kun to assist his breakthrough would have been the most efficient use of it."

Lu Changsheng thought of his firstborn son, Lu Ping’an.

Since the boy's body refinement had already reached the Third Rank Late Stage, his physique was finally sturdy enough to withstand the potent Origin Essence of a Fourth Rank Demon King.
