After leaving the Falling Cloud Sect, Li Su contemplated his situation. He had originally wanted to inquire about the second half of the Grand Yan Sword Formation, but the Falling Cloud Sect’s sect leader hadn’t mentioned it since their last meeting. Such a potent killing formation was a valuable asset within the sect, suggesting that the Formation Master at the Golden Core stage kept the Grand Yan Sword Formation a secret.
This secrecy had both advantages and disadvantages. On the positive side, the Grand Yan Sword Formation wouldn’t be widely dispersed. However, it challenged Li Su in his quest to find the second half.
Let’s begin by mastering the fifth layer. If I can’t locate it, my increased formation experience might enable me to deduce it myself, Li Su thought.
With this in mind, he allocated the remaining 1,500 years of experience to his formation skills, giving him over 2,900 years of formation experience. This was equivalent to the entire lifespan of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator with a slightly weaker foundation.
He invested significantly because Li Su intended to use formations to open up the Mangkang Mountains, allowing spiritual energy to flow into the Hopeful Immortality Corner. This required a substantial amount of formation experience. Additionally, he anticipated encountering numerous ancient restrictions when he visited the Immortal Sect Ruins in a few months. Restrictions were a specialized type of formation, and Li Su’s extensive formation experience would aid him in deciphering them. At this point, even the most powerful formation master in the Falling Cloud Sect couldn’t match Li Su’s expertise.
“Thank you, Dao Friend Danchen,” Li Su expressed his gratitude.
“Don’t mention it. I didn’t expect Li Dao Friend to be over two hundred years old. Compared to you, we are all veterans,” the sect leader of the Danxin Sect said with some nostalgia a few days later. He, too, had heard about the matter. Most likely, this news had already spread throughout the Seven Great Immortal Sects. In the Northern Territory, spreading to the Seven Great Immortal Sects was equivalent to reaching the entire region.
Upon discovering Li Su’s young age, the sect leader of the Danxin Sect became even more respectful. It made one wonder about Li Su’s extraordinary talent, considering his youth and his significant time with women. Looking ahead, it was evident that Li Su’s future achievements would likely surpass his current status.
Although the sect leader of the Danxin Sect held the position of sect leader and had access to various elixirs, he couldn’t confidently predict breaking through to the Nascent Divinity stage. In contrast, from his perspective, Li Su might effortlessly ascend to the Nascent Divinity stage, and that might not even be his ultimate destination.
A Nascent Soul stage cultivator at the age of 209 was truly exceptional. Li Su’s life had only just begun in their eyes. They would be even more astonished if they knew that Li Su was already in the mid-Nascent Soul stage. That’s why Li Su planned to reveal his mid-Nascent Soul stage cultivation after visiting the Immortal Sect Ruins. It was simply too astounding, and displaying it prematurely would invite unnecessary suspicions and troubles from other cultivators.
After a pleasant conversation with the sect leader of the Danxin Sect, Li Su’s descendants completed their admission procedures and became outer disciples of the sect.
“I will instruct those under my care to support them as best as they can, but ultimately, their achievements will depend on their fate,” the sect leader of the Danxin Sect remarked.
“Of course,” Li Su replied.
Having fulfilled his mission, Li Su embarked on his return journey. While passing through the city of Linxian, he decided to stop in Linxian City to acquire additional items further to enhance the grand formation of the Flying Immortal Sect.
“Senior Li must surely possess a Primordial Spirit Root, which might even be the rarer Celestial Spirit Root.”
“It’s been so long since we’ve had a Primordial Spirit Root in the Northern Territory. A Celestial Spirit Root is highly unlikely. Legend has it that when a Celestial Spirit Root is born, it triggers divine phenomena, and certain sacred places have special artifacts to detect its birth from billions of miles away.”
“Yes, if a Celestial Spirit Root were to appear, it could ignite fierce competition among all the sacred places, perhaps even leading to a great war.”
“Celestial Spirit Roots are so rare that they may not emerge for thousands of years. Senior Li most likely possesses a rare Spirit Root.”
In Linxian City, discussions about Li Su continued circulating, captivating many cultivators.
“Senior Li is remarkable, taking in so many concubines and advancing rapidly.”
“I’ve heard that becoming his concubine is highly rewarding. Senior Li even uses elixirs to enhance their cultivation.”
The topic of Li Su remained the dominant subject of conversation in the city.
“Yeah, it’s astonishing! It almost makes me want to become Senior Li’s concubine.”
“When we meet Senior Li, we should be bold and try it.”
“I’m a bit apprehensive. Senior Li is a Nascent Soul stage cultivator. Would he truly be interested in us?”
Simultaneously, in Linxian City, many female cultivators were discussing the same matter. They had a different perspective on it. While male cultivators were deliberating why Li Su had taken so many concubines and was still progressing so swiftly, some female cultivators found themselves daydreaming about it. Many of them had already been captivated by Li Su’s charisma, and now, observing his extraordinary abilities and his penchant for taking concubines, as well as his generous treatment of them, some female cultivators began to contemplate that being Li Su’s concubine might not be a bad idea.
“It really is Senior Li!”
“It’s undeniably Senior Li! My heavens, Senior Li is here again!”
The topic of Li Su continued to captivate conversations in Linxian City.
As Li Su gracefully descended from the sky, many cultivators in Linxian City grew restless. When Li Su landed and concluded his shopping, a sizable crowd of cultivators had gathered outside.
“Senior Li, I’m Murong Ling, and I greatly admire you. This is a portrait I painted as a gift for you,” a female cultivator suddenly stepped forward, her cheeks blushing, and presented a portrait she had crafted for Li Su.
Observing her bold gesture, several other female cultivators swiftly followed suit. This spectacle left the male cultivators in awe.
“Could Senior Li be here in the Northern Territory to take concubines?”
“This is problematic. He’s here in the Northern Territory to take concubines!”
