Patriarch is Taking Concubines Again!-Chapter 316

Chapter 316

As for the Saintess Zixue and the green-clad young girl, they were still patiently waiting outside the estate. First, find the fragments of the Immortal tool and confirm its power, Li Su thought. frёewebnoѵēl.com

He flew out of the Li Residence and ascended into the sky. Mangkang Mountain was extremely tall, reaching tens of thousands of feet, but that was just its average height. The central part of Mangkang Mountain was even higher. Additionally, Mangkang Mountain had some enormous peaks that were even higher. Going upward from Mangkang Mountain, the elemental magnetic barrier stretched endlessly as if it extended to the skies. However, the height was not truly boundless. Beyond that, there was a region of violent winds, which was equally perilous for ordinary cultivators.

Core Formation cultivators wouldn’t rashly enter this area, and even if they could endure it, their true energy consumption would be significant. If a cultivator kept flying in the sky for an extended distance, they would encounter various dangers.

Li Su reached an extremely high point. From his vantage point, he could see the entire Mangkang Mountain. After observing from this vantage point for some time, Li Su’s figure moved, and he appeared within the elemental magnetic barrier. If another cultivator attempted to enter the elemental magnetic barrier like this, it would be suicidal. However, Li Su entered the barrier without any difficulty, and the elemental magnetic barrier showed no reaction.

He stayed within the elemental magnetic barrier for several months. Over the years, Li Su’s proficiency in formations had continued to improve, and in his free time, he had been researching the elemental magnetic barrier. This time, he planned to pinpoint the exact location of the Immortal tool fragment, assess its power, and then figure out how to retrieve it. If it was currently challenging to retrieve the fragment, there was no rush, as he could come back for it when he was even stronger.

This time, Li Su achieved the breakthrough to fusion at the age of 530, which meant that only 145 years had passed since he had reached the virtual refining stage. This amount of time, for anyone else, would be far too short to progress from Nascent Soul to virtual refining. His speed of advancement was truly remarkable. Therefore, Li Su quietly made this breakthrough this time. Otherwise, if Saintess Zixue and her companions found out about his breakthrough, they might jump to conclusions, and the Xuantian Academy might even send powerful cultivators. In that case, the woman might become too frightened to send anyone.

“Saintess Zixue, Elder He has just arrived in Su City. We’ve concealed our auras, ensuring no one detects us,” Li Su informed.

Unbeknownst to Li Su, while within the elemental magnetic barrier, Saintess Zixue received a message through the Xuantian Token. The sender, currently in Su City, appeared as an ordinary aging cultivator accompanied by another old man – seemingly independent cultivators.

In Su City, with Li Su’s rising status in the Canglan Realm, it had become the largest city in the Northern Region. The second-largest, Linhai City, also belonged to Li Su.

“Saintess, has Elder He arrived?” inquired the green-clad young girl beside Zixue.

“Indeed,” confirmed Zixue. The young girl continued, expressing assurance in Elder He’s presence and discussing the growing influence of a woman’s son from the Eastern Family, who broke through to virtual refining over ten years ago.

Anticipating the woman’s potential recruitment efforts in the Golden Purple Sacred Ground, the young girl shared her insights. Knowing the movements of the Golden Purple Sacred Ground, they had contacted the Xuantian Academy a decade ago, requesting the dispatch of a fused practitioner to oversee the situation.

Concerned about the possibility of the Golden Purple Sacred Ground sending a fused practitioner, the young girl acknowledged the power of Saintess Zixue but emphasized the need for caution. Despite the Saintess’s formidable abilities, winning against a fused practitioner from the sacred ground wasn’t guaranteed.

In such a situation, they decided to invite a fused practitioner for safety, considering the power gap and the unpredictability of individuals who reached fusion on sacred grounds. They recognized the importance of having a fused practitioner to oversee things, even if such experts were not readily available unless it was an exceptionally urgent situation.

For ordinary disciples of sacred grounds, encountering fused practitioners was a rare event, sometimes taking thousands or even tens of thousands of years if there were no major events. Fused practitioners mostly remained in seclusion, concealing their aura and identity during occasional journeys.

During Li Su’s travels through Central State with Long Kui, many cultivators brushed past him unknowingly. The green-clad young girl estimated that the woman from the Eastern Family wouldn’t act for at least another ten years, making it the perfect time for Li Su’s offenses.

The fused practitioner from the Xuantian Academy had discreetly arrived in Su City, disguised as an independent cultivator. Only a select few in the Xuantian Academy knew of his presence, serving as their ace in case of a strong offensive from the Golden Purple Sacred Ground.

The green-clad young girl hoped for an aggressive move from the Golden Purple Sacred Ground to provoke Li Su’s formidable capabilities. Elder He, the fused practitioner, observed Li Su’s uniqueness, noting the Li Family’s rapid rise comparable to a second-tier Immortal Sect.

One year later, Li Su, within the elemental magnetic barrier, detected the fused practitioner’s presence. He had a precise location for the hidden immortal artifact fragment deep within Mangkang Mountain.

However, Li Su hesitated, recognizing the need for a defensive-type Dao Tool to acquire the fragment safely. After a clear plan formulation, Li Su received a conch shell message from the South Sea Queen, revealing a large-scale attack by the East Sea Clan.

Li Su swiftly left Mangkang Mountain and arrived in the Western Sea, where Long Han informed him of the East Sea’s massive attack. Li Su’s incredible speed allowed him to cover thousands of miles in less than an hour, reaching the White Dragon Clan’s territory above the Western Sea and witnessing a large gathering of Mermaids from the South Sea.
