But his delicate wives and beautiful concubines did not have such considerations; for them to improve their cultivation, they had to embark on arduous self-practice, which was incredibly difficult.

After all, many of the concubines had low aptitude, especially those who were married to him in the beginning, only having Eighth Grade or Ninth Grade talent. Fortunately, the Rebirth Pills had raised them to Fifth Grade.

Now, after the system upgrade, his wives could also enjoy the benefits of his golden touch—all they needed to do was dual cultivate with him more, and their cultivation would rapidly improve.

Although there were many restrictions and it was ineffective for him, Han Li was still very pleased. As long as his wives could rapidly improve their cultivation, that was enough; he didn’t need the effects of dual cultivation for himself to advance quickly—it was just icing on the cake.

He was about to reach the True Martial Realm, and by then, cultivating with his delicate wives would undoubtedly bring them a tremendous dual cultivation effect, causing their cultivation levels to surge dramatically.

After all, the lower the cultivation of these wives and concubines, the greater the effect of dual cultivation, in theory. Ideally, the cultivation levels of both parties should be similar for the benefits to be mutual. If the discrepancy in cultivation is too large, then it will have a low effect on the person with higher cultivation, but the effect will be substantial for the person with lower cultivation.

Han Li even suspected that if those wives in the Innate Realm or Pihai Realm dual cultivated with him just once, they might directly advance several minor realms or even break through a Big Realm.

Who told him to have such high cultivation?

Previously, Han Li had always been thinking about how to enhance the cultivation of his delicate wives and beautiful concubines. Relying on the System’s bestowed Spirit Pills was an unknown wait. Now, it would simply require dual cultivation.

Dual cultivation could improve the cultivation of his wives and concubines, procreate to extend his lineage, and also provide pleasure of body and mind; it was indeed killing several birds with one stone.

After sighing with emotion, Han Li continued to explore the third feature of the upgraded System.

Open treasure chests!

Han Li was not unfamiliar with this, but he didn’t expect his System to have this feature too; it was too reliant on luck, and without good fortune, one might not extract anything worthwhile.

According to the introduction, there is only one treasure chest per year given for free by the System.

If one wishes to open more treasure chests, one would have to consume cultivation, with only three opportunities each month, meaning that, at most, one could open thirty-seven treasure chests a year, provided Han Li had that much cultivation to spend.

“This is way too expensive…” Han Li couldn’t help but complain. It was a rip-off.

The first time each month costs five years of cultivation, and then it increases ten-fold— who can bear that?

If all thirty-six additional treasure chests were opened, it would cost a total of 6660 years of cultivation per year! Han Li could only describe this as: outrageous!

If he had 6660 years of cultivation per year, wouldn’t he prefer to directly enhance his cultivation to the Tongxuan Realm, the Saintly Abyss Realm, or even the Heaven Imperial Realm?

After thinking it over, Han Li felt that the only feasible approach was to open just one treasure chest every month. Spending five years of cultivation for the first chest each month was still acceptable to him.

This would result in him being able to open 13 treasure chests a year, costing just 60 years of cultivation, which was worth it as the gains outweighed the costs.

As for the second monthly treasure chest opening, it could be reserved for emergencies, to see if he could extract anything favorable to avert crises.

But the third time?

Is there even a third time for opening treasure chests?

Han Li felt there was not, estimating that he would not need it for a long time to come, until perhaps his cultivation was high and his family had many descendants. Then it might be playable.

Han Li thought it might only be possible after becoming a Great Emperor of the Heaven Imperial Realm, or even after ascending to immortality.

After finishing his grumbling, Han Li pondered the last rule a bit more: the treasure chest contains only one item, and its grade depends on his current realm plus or minus four grades.

For instance, Han Li was still in the Myriad Phenomena Realm, which corresponds to Earth-Level Top Grade and Earth-Level Supreme Grade treasure. Four grades down would include Profound Rank Top Grade and Profound Rank Supreme Grade, and four grades up would involve Heaven Rank Top Grade and Heaven Rank Supreme Grade.

Once Han Li’s cultivation advances to True Martial Realm, the treasure chest might yield anything from Earth-Level Lower Grade to Divine Rank Supreme Grade.

Han Li felt that this rule was still commendable. If he were lucky enough, he might get a Divine Weapon of the highest grade with just one free treasure chest opening.

You should know that even a complete Life-Prolonging Furnace is just a Supreme Grade Divine Weapon.

It’s just that Han Li was somewhat uncertain about his own luck, having never yet opened a treasure chest; he didn’t know if he was a jinx or a lucky emperor.

Han Li hoped that he was extremely lucky, preferably favored by Lady Luck herself. Otherwise, being a jinx would be too miserable.

Closing the System panel, Han Li took several deep breaths to calm his excitement.

Afterwards, his silhouette disappeared from the peak of Chengdao Peak.

In the next instant, Han Li appeared in his sleeping palace; he didn’t immediately begin his breakthrough but instead took out a variety of materials to start setting up a Formation.

The Han Mansion had a Third Grade Formation for family protection. The Formation Han Li was setting up was to conceal any commotion so that his breakthrough efforts wouldn’t be detected by others.

After a series of operations, Han Li had set up the Formation, then he sat cross-legged and began his breakthrough to the True Martial Realm.

Without hesitation, with a single thought, the breakthrough began.

While the cultivation value on his System account plummeted rapidly, Han Li’s aura skyrocketed, climbing higher and higher, ascending dramatically and causing a great commotion—all of which was concealed by the Formation.

At this moment, Han Li entered the Enlightenment State, experiencing several bursts of a hundred years in an instant; or to put it differently, this Enlightenment State lasted six times longer than before.

Within the Enlightenment State, Han Li spent six hundred years in that state, during which time he delved into mysteries, created laws, absorbed the essence of various martial arts techniques, contemplated the nature of the universe, and integrated everything into the true essence of his Universal Martial Path, continuously perfecting its embryonic form.
