Chapter 118
The sect leader had numerous tasks ahead, such as consolidating the three immortal sects in the Hopeful Immortality Region and assembling manpower for the upcoming journey to the immortal sects legacy in six months.
Following their farewell, Li Su and Liu Xinshui reached Li Sus ancestral home, where they met his daughters with exceptional spiritual potential.
They indeed possess three-grade spiritual roots. Thats remarkable, Li Su commented. One of his daughters, with three-grade spiritual roots, was a little over ten years old and displayed no shyness, curiously examining Liu Xinshui.
Liu Xinshui smiled and tried to engage with her, but the young girl asked innocently, Auntie, are you so beautiful because youre Daddys concubine?
This question left Liu Xinshui momentarily speechless, and then came Meng Mengs remark, How did he manage to take so many concubines?
Subsequently, Liu Xinshui realized the extent of the Li family and the number of concubines Li Su had. Despite her thousand-year lifespan and leadership role, she couldnt hide her astonishment.
Could he have used elixirs or a cultivation method like dual cultivation? Liu Xinshui briefly wondered, but she quickly discarded the idea. Such elixirs didnt usually lead to offspring and could harm women. Li Sus women, on the other hand, appeared healthy.
As for dual cultivation, it didnt typically result in offspring, and considering Li Sus numerous descendants, it didnt make sense. Moreover, dual cultivation typically requires cultivators of similar levels.
Liu Xinshui couldnt help but grow more intrigued about Li Su. She took Li Sus two daughters with four-grade spiritual roots and visited the city of Luo.
Hes only 209 years old?
The information Liu Xinshui gathered left her utterly amazed. Li Su was only 209 years old!
A hundred years to reach Foundation Establishment, a worldly immortal over a hundred and fifty years for Golden Core, and he reached Nascent Soul at just two hundred years
Every piece of information left Liu Xinshui deeply shocked. A two-hundred-and-nine-year-old Nascent Soul cultivator was unquestionably a prodigy.
However, what perplexed Liu Xinshui was why Li Su had started cultivating at the age of one hundred. Her information sources in Luo were limited, and she wasnt aware of Li Sus expertise in areas like formations, or she might have speculated similarly to the sect leader.
Could it be that he indulged in worldly pleasures, delaying his cultivation? Despite his many concubines, Liu Xinshui wondered briefly, but Li Su didnt seem to be driven solely by physical desires.
If he were such a person, no matter how talented, how could he have reached Nascent Soul at the age of two hundred and nine? Her doubts about Li Sus background grew, and her curiosity about him deepened.
Regarding Li Su taking multiple concubines, beyond her initial surprise, she didnt find it particularly unusual. This was how the world operated. Even worldly emperors often had numerous consorts. However, the fact that Li Su had taken so many female cultivators, especially during his Golden Core stage, and they were all exceptional, made it quite rare.
Most other cultivators at the Golden Core level wouldnt have as much success in attracting female cultivators as Li Su did. Moreover, if they shared Li Sus difficulty in this aspect, they might never reach the Nascent Soul stage in their lifetime.
Filled with surprise and curiosity, Liu Xinshui left the Hopeful Immortality Region and returned to the Water Moon Sect. On the other hand, Li Su embarked on a new journey, accompanied by the Holy Maiden of the Quiet Moon Sect. They aimed to locate the various medicinal herbs hidden by the Holy Maiden. These herbs werent concealed within the Demon Abyss but on an inconspicuous island deep in the sea.
Numerous powerful sea beasts surrounded this small island. Even passing cultivators paid little attention to it. Li Sus flying sword swiftly dispatched an approaching sea beast, a formidable third-order creature. Dealing with these sea beasts was challenging because they could escape into the sea during battles. Unless a cultivator primarily practiced water-based techniques, they wouldnt readily engage in combat underwaterthe natural habitat of these sea beasts.
However, this was not a significant challenge for Li Su and the Holy Maiden of the Quiet Moon Sect. After a month of traveling across the vast sea on their flying boat, they reached their destination. The endless expanse of the sea explained the lack of activity in the Demon Abyss during their journey, raising concerns about potential attacks on the stronghold.
The Holy Maiden descended into the sea, with Li Su closely following. She led the way, traveling hundreds of meters underwater towards the small island. While the visible part of the island was only a few square meters above the sea, it extended significantly below the waters surface, reaching several hundred meters.
Inside the island, they encountered a concealed array that allowed passage underwater, leading to a moderately sized cave where various medicinal herbs were cultivated. The spiritual energy here is quite favorable, Li Su commented. The Holy Maiden explained, Yes, this place benefits from the flow of spiritual veins. I discovered it by chance and established a secret base to cultivate these medicinal herbs.
With their mission accomplished, they began their return journey. It took another month to reach the Hopeful Immortality Region. Li Su then proceeded directly to the Flying Immortal Sect.
Once in the Flying Immortal Sects alchemy room, Li Su expressed his frustration, saying, Another failure. Crafting the Moon Dust Pill proved challenging due to the Holy Maidens incomplete recipe knowledge. She knew the ingredients and the necessary medicinal herbs but lacked the exact recipe. Without it, crafting the pill successfully was a daunting task.
Fortunately, they had enough herbs for Li Su to make around ten attempts. However, two failures had already occurred, leaving him with eight more chances. Li Su acknowledged that my current alchemical experience might not be sufficient. He pondered the situation, recognizing the difficulty of crafting the pill with only the herbs and no complete recipe.
Silent Moon, it seems well have to be patient, Li Su remarked, his eyes briefly flickering to the system panel. What were they waiting for? They were awaiting his impending substantial reward.
Of course, Silent Moon responded calmly. She maintained her trust in Li Su despite his two previous failures.
Their patience was rewarded shortly after when another one of Li Sus descendants, blessed with spiritual roots, was born. With a total of 200 descendants boasting spiritual roots, the first wave of their significant reward arrived as anticipated.
Just as I expected, Li Su thought and smiled. This reward consisted of 2000 years of cultivation and 2000 years of experience and a new option, body-refining cultivation.
