Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

In a cave.

“This flying dagger must be a supreme magic artifact.”

“No wonder it’s so astonishingly powerful, it not only pierced right through my magical shield but also broke through three layers of the Golden Light Barrier!”

Lu Changsheng held a strangely shaped blood-colored flying dagger in his hand, inspecting it closely.

He had felt that this dagger was extraordinary from the beginning.

He guessed it might be a supreme magic artifact, or some other kind of rare treasure.

Now, upon closer examination, he was almost certain, nine times out of ten, that it was a supreme magic artifact.

A supreme magic artifact could be worth thousands of Spirit Stones.

However, Lu Changsheng didn’t plan to sell this dagger.

He thought about keeping it on him for self-defense.

It would give him another method of attack.

Though he had plenty of Talismans, he didn’t usually use magic artifacts.

But having more methods to choose from was naturally for the best.

When he obtained new equipment in the future and no longer needed it, he could sell it at any time.

After all, magic artifacts seldom depreciate in value.

Lu Changsheng continued to sort through the spoils of battle.

“One, two, three…”

“Tsk tsk tsk, these eight magic artifacts should all be Superior Grade artifacts, indeed ‘To do good work, one must first sharpen one’s tools!’”

“As a Robber Cultivator, one must have enough magic artifacts and methods!”

“And these magical robes and boots, they seem to be Middle Grade magic artifacts, too bad they were severely damaged in the attacks of the Golden Light Barrier.”

“This cloud of black mist should also be a supreme magic artifact, right? Moreover, it’s a flying and defensive artifact combined.”

“Pity it’s also damaged; otherwise, I could have kept it for myself. Who knows how much it could sell for now.”

Looking at these artifacts, Lu Changsheng felt both pain and pleasure.

After all, this haul was just too rich.

But seeing that many of the artifacts had been damaged in the attacks of the Golden Light Barrier, reducing their value considerably, he couldn’t help feeling distressed.

For example, of the eight Superior Grade artifacts, two were worn and three were damaged.

As for the magical robes and boots of the five individuals, they were even more severely damaged, almost to the point of scrap.

After a quarter of an hour.

Lu Changsheng finished sorting through the five people’s Storage Bags.

A total of six hundred and thirty-nine Spirit Stones.

Supreme magic artifacts, two!

Superior Grade artifacts, eight!

Middle Grade artifacts, thirteen!

Flying artifacts, three!

A set of Formation artifacts!

Numerous Talismans!

Various Elixir Medicines!

A pile of materials and a multitude of miscellaneous items.

“Not sure what rank this set of Formation artifacts is, what kind of Formation it is? But at least it looks like a Middle Grade Formation artifact.”

“When I get to the Nine Dragons Market, I can have someone appraise it. If it’s decent, I can also keep it for myself.”

“These artifacts, even with many damages and reduced prices, should be worth around four to five thousand Spirit Stones.”

“Add this set of Formation artifacts, plus these elixir medicines, Talismans, and materials, and the total value should be around six to seven thousand Spirit Stones.”

Looking at these items, a smile of joy spread across Lu Changsheng’s face.

He figured that these five ferocious individuals from the Kou clan must have had quite a reputation, having robbed and killed many Cultivators.

Otherwise, they couldn’t possibly be so wealthy.

After sorting out the spoils, Lu Changsheng used a Superior Grade Purification Talisman to purify everything once to ensure there were no issues.

He also destroyed a few unrecognizable suspicious items by digging a hole and burying them.

“If you add the Second Rank Beast Taming legacy, the Mysterious Yin True Water, the Sky Heart Lotus, and these two Foundation Establishment Spirit Objects that I obtained, the total value of this haul is over ten thousand Spirit Stones.”

“And what I paid for it was merely the power of two strikes from a Talisman Treasure, six Supreme Talismans, nineteen Superior Grade Talismans, and twenty Middle Grade Talismans.”

“No wonder so many people turn to being Robber Cultivators, killing and looting really can become addictive.”

Lu Changsheng took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, unable to help but feel reflective.

At this moment, he even entertained the idea of making money through fishing.

But as soon as the thought emerged, he immediately squashed it.

One who often walks by the river cannot avoid getting their shoes wet!

Why risk doing such things when I could just safely marry, take concubines, and have children, with a promising future ahead?

Such things should be left to chance encounters.

Actively seeking them out is absolutely out of the question.

After all, once you start such deeds, there is an endless path ahead.

Once you begin, it’s akin to walking down a road of no return.

Think about it, as a Talisman Master, my income is already the envy of countless Cultivators.

But compared to the way Robber Cultivators make money, there’s simply no comparison.

Having experienced this way of making money, how could one possibly calm down and work, earning Spirit Stones through labor.”

At this moment, Lu Changsheng also roughly understood the mindset of those who hunted Demon Beasts and delved into dungeons of Secret Realms; Cultivators accustomed to such quick cash find it too difficult to settle down and live a stable life without a special skill or craft!

“Once I get to the Nine Dragons Market, I’ll dispose of these items as quickly as possible.”

“That way, I’ll have a sure footing for my Second Rank Talismans and Second Rank Puppets.”

Lu Changsheng’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

With Second Rank Talismans and Puppets, he would have a sure means of protecting himself against Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators!

Thinking of the young man’s return earlier, and needing to fence his loot upon reaching the Nine Dragons Market, Lu Changsheng immediately put on the Hundred Change Mask, transforming into a dark-skinned, ordinary-looking young man.

Then he donned a grey robe, mounted the Iron Feather Eagle, and headed toward the Nine Dragons Marketplace.

“If possible, I really need to get a better flying mount.”

Lu Changsheng looked down at the Iron Feather Eagle beneath him and thought to himself.

Before, having a flying mount was delightful.

But now that his standards had risen, he felt that the Iron Feather Eagle truly left something to be desired.
