Chapter 88
Ordinarily, their progression to higher realms slowed when a cultivator had a high Golden Core grade. However, Li Sus cultivation was skyrocketing, leaving her perplexed. Haha, Xiaoyue, you are truly my lucky star. On this day, Qin Xiaoyue gave birth to another child for Li Su. Surprisingly, this child also possessed spiritual roots, making it the fifth child with spiritual roots. Although the quality of this childs spiritual roots wasnt very high, it was still a delightful surprise for Li Su.
Seeing Li Su so elated, Qin Xiaoyue was also overjoyed. Xiaoyue, come, this is a thousand-year Spirit Ginseng. Li Su had prepared a soup for her using a thousand-year Spirit of Ginseng and some other natural ingredients. The effect was beneficial, even though most ingredients were more effective when refined into pills. After Qin Xiaoyue gave birth to her fifth child with spiritual roots, Li Su decided it was time for her to take a break. Since marrying him, she had already given birth to six children, barely over a year between each birth. Qin Xiaoyue had regained her vitality and returned to the Flying Immortal Sect to continue her cultivation.
Unfortunately, the sect had a more abundant supply of spiritual energy. In the three major sects territories, the sects controlled the spiritual veins and possessed most of the spiritual stones. Li Sus demand for spiritual stones wasnt particularly high. With his growing family and the continuous birth of descendants with spiritual roots, he could acquire some spiritual veins once he reached the Nascent Soul stage. However, there were limited spiritual veins in the three major sects territories, and he hadnt provoked the other two major sects, so it wouldnt be appropriate to drive them away. He chose to wait until after reaching the Nascent Soul stage. It was almost within reach. Li Su saw hope on the horizon.
The sect leader was still consolidating her position, and the Demon Sect had been relatively quiet for the past year. By the way, your spiritual roots are quite exceptional. Why did you join the demonic sect? Li Sus voice echoed in the Li familys alchemy chamber. The Li familys alchemy chamber had become increasingly sophisticated. The Mysterious Moon Saintess didnt answer immediately, and Li Su was preparing to discipline her.
However, when he glanced at her, it seemed like she had recollected something, and her gaze dimmed. Li Su then returned to his alchemical work. Soul.
Li Su opted to enhance his soul again. Almost 200 now, Li Su mused. Only 30 more, and he would achieve a full count of 200 descendants with spiritual roots, likely resulting in another significant reward. Following the pattern, reaching 200 descendants with spiritual roots would grant a 2,000-year increase in cultivation. The growth of the Li familys descendants was approaching 200,000, setting the stage for another wave of substantial rewards that Li Su eagerly anticipated. Thats quite perfect, Li Su smiled. These two waves of significant rewards are enough to propel him into the Nascent Soul stage and help him condense a top-grade Nascent Soul.
Yet, another year passed, and the Silent Moon Saintess began to feel overwhelmed. Li Su continued to take in concubines over the past year. In the other two major sects territories, female cultivators of exceptional beauty were quickly drawn to Li Su. Initially, the Silent Moon Saintess had assumed that Li Su was accumulating resources, but she hadnt observed any signs. Furthermore, Li Su didnt exhibit the lecherous behavior typical of those solely allured by physical beauty. Li Sus demeanor and charisma were exceptional in ordinary circumstances, and he held great prestige within his family.
Then, something even more bewildering occurred. Li Su broke through once more! He reached the peak of the Golden Core! Li Sus face lit up with a smile. This time, it hadnt taken him many years to reach the pinnacle of the Golden Core. At just over 200 years old, this feat was nearly impossible in the three major sects territories and even more astonishing outside the wider world.
Several factors contributed to his rapid progression. Firstly, Li Sus seventh-grade spiritual roots had grown stronger over the years, making a significant difference in retaining spiritual energy. Secondly, the influx of female cultivators from the two major sects, with decent spiritual roots increased the likelihood of giving birth to descendants with spiritual roots. This surge in descendants with spiritual roots contributed to continuous rewards.
In any case, Li Sus progress was remarkable. He had now reached the peak of the Golden Core stage, and with his current cultivation, facing the Silent Moon Saintess in battle would no longer be as thrilling as before. As Li Su broke through to this level, the Silent Moon Saintesss expression turned baffled. This time, she witnessed it before her eyes, with the rewards triggering his breakthrough. She watched in astonishment as Li Sus aura surged, ascending from the ninth level of the Golden Core stage to the peak. Even someone of her level of cultivation was left feeling astounded.The original appearance of this chapter can be found at Ñøv€lß1n.
