Chapter 376
Li Su, just teased by Returning Origin Sect Master, was now in high spirits with her success. He then pulled Sect Master Dieyun. “Husband, it’s daytime now…” Sect Master Dieyun felt helpless, but in the end, she could only yield to her husband’s desires and let Li Su have his way with her. Returning Origin Sect Master took quite a while to recover this time.
To endure the tribulation, she depleted a significant amount of vital energy. It would take several years to replenish it. When Li Su acquired the fragments of the immortal weapon, it took him over a year, and he spared no expense in using resources like spirit stones and elixirs. If the Returning Origin Sect Master wanted to save on these resources, it would take even longer.
After recovering, she needed to consolidate her cultivation. Li Su didn’t linger in the Returning Origin Sect but returned to the Northern Realm. Now, Canglan Realm finally had a powerful cultivator who had endured the first decay of the Celestial Beings, and it happened to be his woman. Li Su couldn’t help but have hopeful thoughts about convincing her to bear him a child.
After returning to the Northern Realm, Li Su was quite energetic. He took in several more concubines in succession. Now, his descendants would soon reach another million. Once this million was reached, followed by two more, he would have ten million descendants. With ten million descendants, there would be an even greater reward. By then, Li Su should be on track to undergo the Five Decays of the Celestial Beings.
Li Su wasn’t yet aware of how the Five Decays of the Celestial Beings had to be faced. He wasn’t worried, assuming he wouldn’t have to go through it actively. He thought he could simply lie back and let it happen. He began refining Dao artifacts for Long Kui. After a few years, Li Su successfully upgraded the White Dragon Armor for Long Kui to the level of an official Dao artifact.
During these years, there was an unexpected gain—the wordless stone stele that belonged to Qin Xiaoyue revealed another opportunity. This wordless stone stele was no longer in the Northern Realm but had been moved to the Central State. Li Su, along with Qin Xiaoyue, transported it to Central State. If Qin Xiaoyue were to move it bit by bit on her own, it would take at least several years.
The wordless stone stele could decipher past opportunities, techniques, and even lost ones in a certain area. It was like an opportunity decryption device. Naturally, placing it in a bustling and historically significant location would be best. In the future, Li Su planned to take Qin Xiaoyue to some realms where sacred places were located to see if they could decrypt anything.
The opportunity deciphered this time was a special method for crafting Dao symbols. Once activated, these symbols could instantly increase the range of the celestial power a cultivator could manipulate by more than ten times. That increase in power was significant. For Li Su, it was quite beneficial. After a few years, four of the witches had already reached the “Breaking Through Tenth” stage.
So, Li Su had become the father of ten children. After the birth of the tenth child, Li Su considerately suggested a break for them. This thoughtful gesture moved the witches exhausted from giving birth, like Liu Feng’er. She had tried to bring up something several times in front of Li Su, likely wanting to have a heart-to-heart conversation. However, Li Su was not in a hurry. One day, he arrived at the Returning Origin Sect. Returning Origin Sect, Master had mostly recovered. Li Su met her again. Compared to before, the aura of the Returning Origin Sect Master had undergone a significant change after her recovery. The gentle and weak temperament she had before was no longer present. Now, she gave Li Su an unprecedented sense of strength.
She exuded a vibrant and lively aura. Though her appearance hadn’t changed much, she remained as alluring and captivating as a ripe peach. Her fashion sense followed an elegant and tasteful style, subtly highlighting her enchanting figure.
However, Li Su knew the truth. The Returning Origin Sect Master’s figure was enticing, boasting a perfect peach-shaped derriere that captivated him. As he looked at her, his gaze seemed off.
After more than ten years since their initial travels, the experiences from that journey remained vivid in their memories. Returning Origin Sect Master was well aware of Li Su’s feelings. “Li Su, the success in overcoming the tribulation this time is thanks to you,” she said softly, expressing her sincere gratitude.
“In the future, you and Dieyun will be in charge of Returning Origin Sect. I want to take advantage of this time to collect some things to prepare for the second decay,” Returning Origin Sect Master added. It seemed she was planning to leave the Canglan Realm for a while.
Li Su pondered for a moment and agreed. “Alright. One month later, I’ll leave,” Returning Origin Sect Master added, indicating her departure. This detail raised questions, especially with her slightly shy expression, intriguing Li Su.
Unable to resist his impulses, Li Su cast a shadow over the cave, and his figure appeared behind the Returning Origin Sect Master. Caught off guard, she was stunned as Li Su’s actions unfolded.
In the end, Returning Origin Sect Master, after three months of attempts to leave, wasn’t successful. However, a few months later, she received an unexpected surprise—she was pregnant! Li Su’s persistent advances had borne fruit.
After giving birth to Li Su’s child, the Returning Origin Sect Master, now a mother, prepared to leave for a while. “In the future, you and Dieyun will be in charge of Returning Origin Sect. I want to collect things to prepare for the second decay,” she explained.
Li Su respected her decision and didn’t force her. A little more than a year later, Returning Origin Sect Master gave birth to a chubby little girl with second-grade spiritual roots.
Having a high cultivation level didn’t guarantee a child with first-grade spiritual roots. Regardless, Li Su was satisfied. Returning Origin Sect Master’s decision not to go to the Spirit Realm due to its danger was explained, shedding light on the challenges faced by failed ascension cultivators.
After the child’s birth, the Returning Origin Sect Master was ready to collect items to overcome the second decay. Li Su learned about the Spirit Realm for the first time and understood the dangers it posed.
She planned to visit the Immortal Alliance headquarters, and Li Su saw her off. Meanwhile, Tao Yao successfully advanced to the Nascent Divinity stage, causing a stir among cultivators. After the breakthrough, she built her immortal foundation, and Li Su assured her of his support.
After breaking through to the Nascent Divinity stage, Tao Yao’s graceful transformation led to her building her immortal foundation. Her words, “Husband, wait for me,” conveyed determination and love. As she began the process, the commotion she caused surpassed even the Sect Master’s Immortal Foundation ceremony.
