Morphology
lubriciously = lubricious (semi-transparent) = lubric + ious + ly
Formed by adding '-ly' to the adjective 'lubricious'; the morphological step is regular and clear.
Etymology
Lubriciously comes from the Latin root lubric- meaning 'slippery', as in lubricate. A helpful way to remember the sexual sense is to think that 'slippery' was also used for someone morally loose, so lubriciously can mean 'in a sexually suggestive or lewd way'.
