Chapter 66: Magical weapon and robe!
“Grandmother, I recognize these three talismans,”
Lu Changsheng replied earnestly.
“This is a high-grade talisman, the Lightning Inducing Talisman, which can trigger a bolt of lightning equivalent to a strike from a Qi Refining Ninth Stage cultivator!”
“This is a high-grade talisman, the Hundred-Mile Invisibility Talisman, which allows you to transform into a rainbow and travel tens of miles away!”
“This is an ultimate-grade talisman, the Lightning Flash Talisman, which releases a flash of lightning equivalent to the full power of a Qi Refining peak-stage cultivator’s attack!”
Lu Changsheng spoke seriously, recognizing that these three talismans were specially prepared by the Fourth Elder for his safety in case he encountered any unexpected dangers.
With these three talismans at his disposal, he would be well-protected unless he faced a powerful cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage.
“That’s right,” the Fourth Elder replied with a smile. “It seems you have been studying diligently; these shouldn’t be too difficult for you.”
“Now, put these away and try on the robe so I can see how it looks on you,” she added kindly, reaching out to gently pat Lu Changsheng’s head.
“Yes, Grandmother!”
Lu Changsheng nodded, putting away the three silk boxes and heading to an adjacent room to change into the robe.
On the side, Lu Miaoge watched the three gifts with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
She was astonished by her aunt’s generosity.
Despite knowing that her aunt was a talisman master and thus wealthier than ordinary cultivators, Lu Miaoge couldn’t help but be surprised by the generosity shown to Lu Changsheng.
After all, cultivators usually spent what they earned on their own cultivation and resources, leaving little for savings.
Therefore, a gift worth over seven hundred spirit stones was indeed a grand gesture.
Moreover, the three gifts were thoughtfully chosen based on Lu Changsheng’s current needs.
This level of consideration showed the depth of the Fourth Elder’s affection for him.
Although she felt a hint of envy at the Fourth Elder’s affection for Lu Changsheng, Lu Miaoge understood the reasons behind it.
It was clear that her aunt wished for Lu Changsheng to fully integrate into the Lu Family and appreciated his performance over the past six months, treating him like a cherished grandson.
Lu Changsheng entered the adjacent room and changed out of his old robe, which he had worn for five years, and into the medium-grade magic robe gifted by the Fourth Elder.
It seemed that the family color of the Lu Family in Qingzhu Mountain was green, or perhaps the Fourth Elder was accustomed to seeing him in green robes.
Thus, both the magic sword and the robe she gifted him were green.
Having lived in the Lu Family for many years, Lu Changsheng had grown accustomed to the green color and found it pleasing.
The new robe’s style was similar to the old robe, but it was clearly of a much higher quality, appearing luxurious and elegant.
The robe was adorned with dark green silk embroidery of vivid and natural bamboo leaves, with elegant and precise gold thread detailing around the collar and cuffs.
Enhanced by the magic arrays, the robe exuded a faint glow when worn.
The saying “clothes make the man” holds true in the case of Lu Changsheng, as the medium-grade magic robe enhanced his already handsome appearance, making him appear even more distinguished and extraordinary.
“The quality of this medium-grade magic robe is truly remarkable; the difference is evident the moment you put it on,”
Lu Changsheng thought, filled with the same joy as when he wore new clothes during the Lunar New Year in his past life.
He happily ran his hand over the smooth, armor-like robe, marveling at its luxurious feel.
The robe was as light as a feather when worn, a stark contrast to the robe he had been wearing previously.
As a medium-grade magic robe, it not only featured seven major arrays but was also made from high-quality materials such as demonic beast fur and other spiritual fibers.
The result was a fabric that was waterproof, fireproof, and impervious to most weapons – basic qualities that required no further elaboration.
Lu Changsheng attempted to activate the concealment array within the magic robe.
Immediately, the radiance on the robe dimmed and dissipated, appearing more modest and ordinary, like a refined and exquisite garment.
“This looks much better now. Otherwise, it would be too conspicuous, practically screaming ‘I’m a fat sheep’ to everyone,”
Lu Changsheng remarked, observing the subdued appearance of the robe after activating the concealment array.
He found the effect of this array quite impressive and well-suited to himself. He made a mental note to look for clothes with similar effects in the future when purchasing garments.
Subsequently, he deactivated the concealment array, allowing the robe to shimmer with spiritual light once again. He then casually walked out of the side hall.
In the main hall, the sight of Lu Changsheng, with his handsome face, tall and elegant figure, clad in a sky-blue robe adorned with golden bamboo embroidery, and a jade sword hanging from his waist, caught the attention of the Fourth Elder. Her eyes lit up with admiration.
With a gentle and affectionate smile on her face, she praised, “Well done! It seems my young Changsheng was destined to wear such a robe. It looks great!”
Having practiced the Immortal Posture Technique for so many years and having acquired the Peach Blossom Gu, Lu Changsheng’s appearance was truly outstanding.
His features were perfectly balanced, creating a pleasing and comfortable aura that exuded an air of elegance and charm.
With the addition of the magic robe, which now shimmered with spiritual light, his refined and composed demeanor gained a touch of Immortal Qi, making him appear like a celestial being.
“It’s all thanks to Granny’s excellent choice of clothing,”
Lu Changsheng replied graciously, his demeanor as gentle and refreshing as a spring breeze.
Granny’s praise was indeed true. Lu Changsheng was exceptionally suited to this type of magic robe, emanating an aura of Immortal Qi.
“You’re absolutely right. Changsheng you look perfect in this robe, radiating an Immortal Qi,” The Fourth Elder agreed with a smile on her face.
She then turned to Miaoge and asked, “Isn’t that right, Miaoge?”
Lu Changsheng’s handsomeness was undeniable.
Miaoge had seen men with better looks before, but none could compare to Lu Changsheng.
His facial features, skin, physique, posture, and demeanor were all perfectly harmonized, creating an inexplicable sense of comfort and attraction.
Especially now, with the magic robe shimmering with spiritual light, it perfectly accentuated Lu Changsheng’s figure and demeanor, giving him an aura reminiscent of an otherworldly being.
“Indeed, Brother Changsheng looks perfect in this robe. My aunt has excellent taste and knows exactly what suits him,”
Lu Miaoge remarked with a gentle smile, her voice as soft as clouds.
Lu Changsheng smiled, impressed by Miaoge’s perceptiveness. “Thank you for the compliment.”
“Changsheng, remember to go see Lu Bo later to collect the Steel Feather Eagle. I’ve already arranged it with him,”
Granny reminded him kindly as she gently smoothed the wrinkles on Lu Changsheng’s robe, her actions full of affection and care.
Lu Changsheng was deeply moved by her gesture.
After all, the heart is made of flesh.
Over the past six months, Granny had been nothing but kind and supportive to him.
“Rest assured, Granny,”
Lu Changsheng nodded in acknowledgment.
Granny then spent some time offering guidance and instruction on talisman crafting to Lu Changsheng and Miaoge.
Lu Changsheng’s talent in talisman crafting had gradually improved under her tutelage.
Granny and Miaoge seemed to have accepted the fact that Lu Changsheng was indeed a rare genius in the field of talisman crafting.
Lu Changsheng estimated that if he practices for another two and a half years, he will be able to show himself as a high-grade talisman master.
By then, his standard of living would also improve significantly, which he looked forward to.
At noon, they left Granny’s residence and Lu Changsheng went to Lu Bo’s place to collect the Steel Feather Eagle as instructed.
