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

"Is this an attempt to murder for loot?"

"I never expected Myriad Treasures Pavilion, with its big name, would actually engage in murder and robbery."

Lu Changsheng's divine sense was comparable to that of a Foundation Establishment Late Stage, and he had the Misty Sky Bead to conceal his magic aura.

Therefore, the Foundation Establishment early stage cultivator was completely unable to detect his disguise.

Upon using his divine sense to inspect, he only took him for an Energy Refinement Late Stage cultivator.

He then quietly left a divine sense mark on the hem of his clothing for tracking purposes.

"Indeed, my extravagant purchases and spending tens of thousands of Spirit Stones, not to mention fencing goods of equal value, would tempt even Foundation Establishment cultivators into greed," he mused.

With the Misty Sky Bead and his strength as a foundation, Lu Changsheng was not as cautious this time as he usually was.

After completing a transaction, he would go to an inn and change his disguise.

The whole time, maintaining a single identity.

"If one wishes to be a robber cultivator, one must be prepared to pay the price."

Lu Changsheng's expression remained calm, seemingly unaware he was being targeted, and he quickly left Nine Dragons Market.

Upon exiting the marketplace, Lu Changsheng took out a superior magic artifact.

He flew at the speed of an ordinary Energy Refinement Late Stage cultivator.

"Being followed."

Before long, Lu Changsheng could sense, a hundred zhang behind him, a figure dressed in black vestment robes and wearing a mask.

This person was a manager from the 'Myriad Treasures Pavilion' of Nine Dragons Market.

The other party must also be concerned about their reputation.

Therefore, they planned to wait until he was a good distance away from Nine Dragons Market before making a move.

After Lu Changsheng flew nearly a hundred miles away from Nine Dragons Market, the manager from Myriad Treasures Pavilion openly pursued him with escape light, not bothering to conceal his intentions.

"Young one, don't blame this old man, blame your own lack of restraint!"

He unleashed the grandeur of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, brandishing a Spiritual Artifact Flying Dagger, aiming to kill Lu Changsheng in one blow.

"Hmph!"

Looking at the oncoming manager from Myriad Treasures Pavilion, Lu Changsheng let out a cold snort.

He activated the 'Soul Dispersion Needle' with his divine sense, allowing this divine sense attack to suddenly pierce into his opponent's sea of consciousness.

"Pu!"

The manager from Myriad Treasures Pavilion had no defense against the divine sense attack and was caught completely off guard.

He immediately felt his sea of consciousness being pierced, his face paled, his brain spun in dizziness, he raised his hand to his forehead, and let out a muffled groan.

"Bad news! A Divine Sense Attack!"

"This person is a Foundation Establishment cultivator! A Foundation Establishment Late Stage Great Cultivator!"

The manager from Myriad Treasures Pavilion barely freed himself from the divine sense attack, his heart filled with shock and terror.

He had never expected his greed for killing and looting

to be exactly what the other party was angling for.

His whole body surged with Spiritual Light as he hurriedly shouted, "Fellow Daoist, it's a mis..."

But before he could finish,

several sharp and domineering beams of the Seven Luminaries Sword cut through the air, shooting towards him simultaneously.

"Pu pu pu—"

The beams from the Seven Luminaries Sword penetrated the protective Spiritual Light around the manager from Myriad Treasures Pavilion.

Then they pierced through his forehead, leaving a bloody hole.

A Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator thus fell!

"This Divine Sense Attack technique is really useful,"

"When it's unexpected, it leaves one with no chance to defend."

Lu Changsheng looked at the manager from Myriad Treasures Pavilion whom he had just instantly killed and mused to himself.

Immediately, he raised his palm and the Misty Sky Bead appeared inside his body.

"Go!"

The grey mist from within the Misty Sky Bead stirred, like a great grey snake, sweeping towards the corpse of the manager from Myriad Treasures Pavilion.

In a short while, the body was drained of flesh and blood under the grey mist, turning into a pile of dry bones.

"It looks so much like a technique from the Demon Path."

Lu Changsheng looked at the skeleton that remained after the Misty Sky Bead had devoured the body and couldn't help but comment.

He then gestured with his hand to withdraw the Misty Sky Bead back into his body.

The next moment, his entire body fluctuated.

His face, physique, temperament, magic aura, all became identical to that of the manager from Myriad Treasures Pavilion.

"So this is the perfect disguise of the Misty Sky Bead."

"Although the flesh, soul core, and cultivated techniques remain unchanged, the effect and appearance presented are as if I'm a completely different person."

Lu Changsheng quietly experienced this new state.

The Misty Sky Bead inside him seemed to be imprisoning the flesh and soul of the manager from Myriad Treasures Pavilion, thus making his appearance identical to his.

"If I now return to Nine Dragons Market, wouldn't I be able to use this identity to glean a fortune from Myriad Treasures Pavilion?"

Lu Changsheng stroked his chin, contemplating.

He may have understood the best use for this treasure.

That is, to become a thief.

Even Nascent Soul Immortals would typically not realize the effects of the Misty Sky Bead.

If he wished, he could completely transform into someone with status and position from a minor family or small force and use this method to plunder.

But the next moment, Lu Changsheng shook his head, dismissing the thought.

Inside a chain store like Myriad Treasures Pavilion, there would surely be various prohibitions and secret signals.

Being unfamiliar with these aspects, he could easily commit a blunder and be exposed.

If he were to be found out within the shop, provoking the Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators stationed at Nine Dragons Market to take action, it would be very dangerous and troublesome.

Moreover, in Lu Changsheng's view, such actions are like becoming addicted to impersonation and robbery.

If one starts doing it too often, they might end up on a path of no return.

Since he had the system to rely on, he did not need to engage in such deeds.

After all, those who often walk by the river rarely manage to keep their shoes dry.

The Misty Sky Bead might be powerful, but it's not omnipotent.

Perhaps some family or power has treasures or secret techniques that can counter this ability.

Immediately, Lu Changsheng changed his appearance again, adopting another look.

He reached out, collecting all the magic artifacts and the storage bag of the manager from Myriad Treasures Pavilion into his possession and turned into a streak of escape light as he left.

Experience more on empire

...

Half a month later.

"This is Green River Marketplace."

Lu Changsheng operated his flying boat, arriving at a medium-to-large-sized marketplace built along a river.
