Chapter 2609: Chapter 847:
Now it has already fallen to the Middle Grade Spiritual Treasure level.
If it keeps burning, it might even drop to the Low Grade Spiritual Treasure level.
By then, even if he continued to intimidate and pressure it, the Artifact Spirit of the [Myriad Ghosts Blood Pool] would practically go on strike in protest.
Besides that, in order to neutralize the overbearing effect of the Blood of Myriad Spirits, Lu Changsheng had投入了数 amounts of Third Rank, and even Fourth-rank Spiritual Objects.
If not for killing Fu Hai True Monarch, Pinghai Monarch and the others, and obtaining such a bountiful harvest from the Yiming Ghost Sect, even Lu Changsheng would have felt heartache, thinking this expenditure far too great.
However, in Lu Changsheng’s eyes, his daughter’s Upper Class Spirit Body advancing into a Top Level Spiritual Body was still worth it.
The road ahead of her would become much smoother.
"Dad..."
Lu Wangshu opened her eyes and looked at her father before her, whose features were handsome like an immortal. Although joy filled her heart, there was also an indescribable heaviness.
She somewhat understood what it meant to be "too much."
To push her Blood Talisman Spiritual Body one step further, the resources her father投入了数 were truly too many.
She didn’t know exactly what this Blood of Myriad Spirits was, but she could sense that the Qi Mechanism of this Demon Path Spiritual Treasure had clearly fallen by one level.
During the process, the Spiritual Medicine and Spiritual Objects her father投入了数 were incomparably precious, their value hard to measure.
Even though she herself was a Third-rank Talisman Master, cultivating Dao Soldiers, with daily expenses far surpassing many cultivators, she still felt heavy-hearted, knowing money didn’t just blow in on the wind.
If these resources were used on something else, they would even be enough to培养 out several Nascent Soul Cultivators.
"Wangshu, what’s wrong?"
Seeing that his daughter was not as delighted as usual, Lu Changsheng immediately asked with concern, thinking she might be feeling unwell somewhere.
After all, this Blood of Myriad Spirits was ultimately a Demon Path item.
If too much was refined at once, it might very well cause some problems, leaving behind after-effects.
"It’s just... it feels a bit too wasteful."
Lu Wangshu lightly pursed her red lips and spoke with some heartache.
If this were converted into Spirit Stones, how many would that be?
Even if she broke through to Core Formation, she wouldn’t be able to earn this many resources.
"Heh, so you do know how dear rice, oil, and salt are."
Lu Changsheng let out a speechless laugh; he had thought she was feeling unwell, but it turned out his daughter was just pained over the resources.
"How could I not know!"
Lu Wangshu rolled her eyes at her old man and said in a half-angry tone.
In her early years she had always been managing the Tianfu Pavilion in the Great Dream Immortal City, and in recent years she had also been in charge of the Lu Family’s High-level Talismans. How could she not understand prices?
Precisely because she understood, she felt such heartache.
She knew her old man had spent an enormous amount of resources to upgrade her Spiritual Body.
"Heh, since you feel heartache, then just advance to Fourth-rank Talisman Master earlier and earn it back."
Knowing this daughter loved money by nature, Lu Changsheng joked with a smile.
"I’m not heartbroken anymore." Lu Wangshu immediately shook her head.
"Alright, now that your Spiritual Body has advanced, carefully perceive and experience your current state."
Lu Changsheng did not continue teasing his daughter. He let her quietly feel her current physical state; perhaps she might gain something.
Upon hearing this, Lu Wangshu immediately held her breath and concentrated, entering the "Dao Heart Only Micro" state, feeling the Spiritual Body that had been enhanced at the cost of so many resources.
As her Blood Talisman Spiritual Body was constantly being irrigated, she had already gained some insight in her heart.
She gained further understanding of the Talisman Path, as well as of the Ninety-Nine Mystical Talisman Scripture.
She even vaguely obtained a certain Talismanic Inheritance during this process.
...
Seeing his daughter enter a wondrous state resembling Enlightenment with just a few breaths, Lu Changsheng clicked his tongue in admiration, then took the Myriad Ghosts Blood Pool Spiritual Treasure and returned to his own Cave Mansion.
Previously, he had rather disliked the [Myriad Ghosts Blood Pool].
He felt this Spiritual Treasure’s effect was so-so, and that the Blood of Myriad Spirits it condensed was somewhat similar to the Heavenly Dew condensed by the [Dew Collection Plate].
Now it seemed the two each had their own strengths and weaknesses.
For this Spiritual Treasure to become the inheritance Supreme Treasure of the Yiming Ghost Sect, it indeed had many merits.
"System."
After returning to the Cave Mansion, Lu Changsheng silently called out in his heart, checking on his daughter Lu Wangshu’s situation.
[Name: Lu Wangshu]
[Life Span: 109/365]
[Talent: Third-Grade Spirit Root, Blood Talisman Spiritual Body (Top Level Spiritual Body)]
[Cultivation Level: Ninth Level Foundation Establishment]
[Talent Attribute: Talisman Path Compatibility (120%)]
"Still a Blood Talisman Spiritual Body, huh..."
Seeing that his daughter’s Spiritual Body had only increased in Grade and had not advanced into some other Spiritual Body, Lu Changsheng raised his brows slightly.
But thinking about how his daughter’s Spiritual Body had advanced through the Blood of Myriad Spirits constantly irrigating and nourishing her Blood Talisman Origin Source,
it was entirely normal that it didn’t grow into some other Talisman Path Spiritual Body.
During the process, Lu Changsheng had even worried that his daughter’s Spiritual Body would turn into some kind of Blood Path Spiritual Body.
"System, fuse!"
Lu Changsheng continued to silently chant, fusing the upgraded [Blood Talisman Spiritual Body] into his own [Chaos Body].
Now, as long as it wasn’t a Dao Body being refined, ordinary Top Level Spiritual Bodies fundamentally could not shake his Chaos Body.
During this process, Lu Changsheng gained a detailed understanding of his daughter Lu Wangshu’s Blood Talisman Spiritual Body.
On the basis of its previous state, it took another step forward, gaining many enhancements.
But just as he had worried before, his daughter’s Spiritual Body was gradually leaning toward a Blood Path Spiritual Body.
Aside from the Talisman Path talent, the primary enhancement lay in burning Essence Blood and Life Span.
Burning Essence Blood not only had its effects greatly increased, it could also boost Talisman Path talent, Talisman Path comprehension, nurture the Grade of Talismans, and even increase Talisman power, and so on.
"It’s a bit of a waste..."
Lu Changsheng sighed inwardly, feeling that this effect was rather tasteless.
After all, Talisman Making already consumed Mental Spirit.
If one also had to burn Essence Blood every now and then to enhance talent state and Talisman power, it would easily become like Divination—shortening one’s Life Span.
However, advancing a Spiritual Body was unlike his own Chaos Body fusing with other Constitutions; it wasn’t something he could control.
This time, his daughter’s Spiritual Body advancement happened because the Blood of Myriad Spirits happened to fit her Blood Talisman Spiritual Body and pried at the Origin Source of her Spiritual Body.
Otherwise, trying to enhance a Spiritual Body would be incredibly difficult.
"But... why does this Spiritual Body’s effect seem somewhat suited to me..."
