Longevity Clan Starts with the Patriarch’s Marriage

Chapter 343: Chapter 188: Xiangxiang Advances to the True Martial Realm! The Effects of the Life-Prolonging Furnace! Traps in the Immortal Scripture Begin to Emerge! Xue Yueqing Sets Out_4

She hadn’t expected her husband to also present her with a True Martial Pill without any hesitation, which showed just how much he cared for her.

When her husband had captured her previously, he had promised to help her ascend to the True Martial Realm. Less than a decade had passed, and she had already advanced. The prospects of breaking through to the Divine Yuan Realm and the Tongxuan Realm in the future were highly promising.

She was extremely grateful to be his wife.

“Xiangxiang, is this how you thank your husband?”

Han Li, with a mischievous smile on his face, scooped up Xiangxiang, the Sect Hierarch, as she bowed her head, and carried her deep into the sleeping chambers.

The Sect Hierarch Xiangxiang had broken through to the True Martial Realm and become Emperor Wu, which likely meant her combat strength had soared.

Elder Han sought to exchange insights with the Sect Hierarch Xiangxiang to see who was stronger. As the two discussed the profound mysteries and Elder Han explained the principles, he did so in a way that was both deep and simple, captivating the Sect Hierarch Xiangxiang, leaving her utterly defeated.

In the blink of an eye, five months had gone by.

During these months, Han Li hadn’t taken any concubines in Han Mansion mainly because he couldn’t find an appropriate target.

But he continued to take concubines in The Li Manor; over five months, he had taken seven beautiful concubines, each according to the new standards.

With dual cultivation during this time, all the wives and concubines in both mansions had their cultivation levels surge, with many advancing by one or several minor realms.

During this period, Han Li often taught his descendants, imparting various experiences and vigorously training those on the key cultivation list, enabling them to continue breaking through.

With the Life-Prolonging Furnace and the Time-Sky Tower complementing each other, Han Mansion had entered an explosive period of growth, with its foundation rapidly increasing. The more time passed, the stronger the foundation became.

The efficacy of the Life-Prolonging Furnace was incredibly strong, incomparable to that of the Soul-Cultivating Furnace and the imitation Body-Cultivating Furnace, offering six major auxiliary effects.

First, Mysterious Creation. The Life-Prolonging Furnace could absorb higher level spiritual energy from the unknown and condense it into a Spirit Source. It could also attract external spiritual energy to refine into Spirit Source, albeit at a lower efficiency.

This higher level spiritual energy was almost like Immortal Qi, far superior to the higher level spiritual energy from the Soul-Cultivating and Body-Cultivating Furnaces.

As long as there was an ample supply of this high-level Spirit Source, the Life-Prolonging Furnace could create powerful combatants, such as the Five-Directional Mystical Beasts. At its strongest, it could create beings at the beginning of the Sacred Abyss Realm, necessitating a considerable amount of Spirit Source to maintain just two of them.

Second, after undergoing the purification of the Life-Prolonging Furnace, the aptitude of the purified individual would increase by one grade, reaching up to the highest, first grade, and their comprehension would also greatly improve.

It’s possible to undergo this purification three times a month, each time consuming quite a bit of Spirit Source. One could also provide Spirit Source to empower the Life-Prolonging Furnace, thus increasing the number of purifications up to a maximum of six times a month.

Third, entering the Life-Prolonging Furnace for tempering, which takes a day. One could also only be tempered three times a month, each session consuming a considerable amount of Spirit Source.

The tempering subject’s physical cultivation and Divine Spirit would surge, varying with individual cultivation, the increase from a single tempering could be up to tenfold.

Fourth, cultivating within the range of the Life-Prolonging Furnace would enhance cultivation speed by over a hundred times, accommodating a maximum of ten people. The increase in cultivation would diminish as the number of people increased.

Fifth, the Spirit Source of the Life-Prolonging Furnace could rapidly heal injuries to the body and Divine Spirit, allowing cultivators to return to their peak condition. Even without injuries, while within the range of the Life-Prolonging Furnace, one’s body and Divine Spirit would always be in peak condition, aiding in cultivation, understanding of the Dao, and spellcasting.

Sixth, the Life-Prolonging Furnace could assist cultivators in their breakthrough, increasing the likelihood of success.

Below the Hollow Void Stage, the chance of breakthrough was one hundred percent. For the Hollow Void Stage, it increased the chance by eighty percent, Myriad Phenomena Realm by sixty percent, True Martial Realm by forty percent, Divine Yuan Realm by twenty percent, Tongxuan Realm by ten percent, Sacred Abyss Realm by five percent, and by two percent for advancing to Quasi Emperor.

The highest it could help was to Quasi Emperor, for after all, the Life-Prolonging Furnace was only a Supreme Grade Divine Weapon and couldn’t help cultivators ascend to the Heaven Imperial Realm and become a Great Emperor.

Even so, it didn’t affect the status of the Life-Prolonging Furnace as an ancient treasure.

Because of these six effects, even though the Life-Prolonging Furnace was only a Supreme Grade Divine Weapon, its status in the Nine Solar Heavens, the number one sacred land in the Crimson Divine State, was no less than that of emperor-level weapons.

Having learned of the efficacy of the Life-Prolonging Furnace, Han Li was delighted, heaping praise upon Yin Ling and was also eager to repair the Life-Prolonging Furnace’s injuries.

Currently, the Life-Prolonging Furnace was only at seventy percent of its peak power, and its six faculties were all considerably discounted to only seventy percent of their usual potency.

Han Li knew that this process couldn’t be rushed—fixing the Life-Prolonging Furnace would take time. As soon as suitable Immortal Gold or Divine Iron appeared from the treasure chest, he could feed it to Yin Ling.

Now, Yin Ling had completely integrated into Han Mansion, spending its days in the small space within the Void Bell, happily playing with the Void Bell’s Artifact Spirit Zi Yi, the Dao Decapitating Sword’s Artifact Spirit JianJi, and the Time-Sky Tower’s Artifact Spirit Ling Shiqi. The four little Artefact Spirit girls were joyful every day.

In the past five months, Han Li had opened five treasure chests, each costing five years of cultivation—a total of twenty-five years of cultivation.

This expenditure wasn’t significant, and occasionally they yielded excellent items. Han Li felt it was very worthwhile. As for opening a second or third treasure chest each month, that wasn’t as valuable, as there was no guarantee of good results.

With each opening of the treasure chest, Han Li would either “shed dragon scales” or “support the demon ascension”, and sometimes he would “cherish fragrance and pity jade”, borrowing a bit of their luck in the process.

Overall, the gains were quite good. Out of the five treasure chests, three contained excellent items, with only two being fairly average. Still, there were no instances of particularly bad luck.

The first “shedding dragon scales” yielded a Divine Rank Supreme Grade Cultivation Technique, the “Life and Death Sacred Scripture”.

The second “shedding dragon scales” revealed a Lower Grade Divine Medicine, the “Three Netherworld Grass”.

The first “supporting the demon ascension” revealed an Emperor Level mid-grade weapon, the “Combat Tower”.
