WTF, The Centuries-Old Ancestor In Our Family Take Concubine Again!

Chapter 133

Chapter 133

After searching for a while, Li Su finally discovered a well-concealed restriction in the area. It was extremely challenging to locate, hidden in a remote spot where even the Head of the Falling Cloud Sect wouldn’t likely notice.

However, once Li Su found it, he successfully broke the restriction and entered the concealed space. The interior was not very large, seemingly within the mountain’s depths, and contained a crystal coffin.

Inside the crystal coffin was a woman dressed elegantly, with attire on her lower body resembling a fishtail skirt. Li Su realized it was not a fishtail skirt – her lower body was a fishtail.

Li Su concluded that she was likely a mermaid, specifically a mermaid princess. Although he hadn’t interacted with the sea clan, he had recently heard about them from the Nascent Soul cultivators of the North Domain.

The sea clan was less powerful than in the past and rarely ventured onto land. This woman appeared to be a genuine sea clan member, not a sea beast, and she wore a delicate crown on her head, giving her the look of a dignified princess.

Looking at the mermaid in the crystal coffin, Li Su wondered if she might still be alive. It was also possible that she had already passed away, and her subordinates simply wanted her body returned to the sea.

Li Su examined some sets of skeletal remains lying nearby, which he turned into ashes. In front of each set of bones, there was a box.

Li Su approached the boxes, recognizing them as having restrictions that would self-destruct if forcibly opened. He found a jade slip on the ground explaining the origin of these boxes.

The skeletal remains were those of loyal mermaids who had served the mermaid in the crystal coffin. The message in the jade slip stated that if anyone intruded and were willing to transport the crystal coffin to the sea, they would receive mermaid pearls as a reward. Consuming these pearls would significantly extend one’s lifespan and increase their cultivation.

Li Su wondered if the mermaid inside the crystal coffin might still be alive. He opened the boxes with relatively simple restrictions, as his knowledge of formations and restrictions had surpassed even a Nascent Soul-level formation master.

Li Su opened one of the boxes and found a mermaid pearl inside, confirming his expectations. He collected four pearls in total, which was a significant haul. He also decided to store the crystal coffin.

He suspected the mermaid was not alive because he could store it in his bag. The passage of time had caused many items in the sect’s storage to deteriorate, so the idea of a Nascent Soul cultivator surviving for so long seemed improbable.

Li Su chose to take the crystal coffin with him for further study but acknowledged that it might be best to wait until he reached the Nascent Soul stage before delving deeper into it.

Li Su wasn’t too concerned about unexpected developments because if the mermaid were still alive, she might be in a state of self-imposed cryogenic suspension or something similar. After many years, her strength would have significantly diminished.

Once he had gathered everything and left the area, one of the Nascent Soul cultivators asked, “Li Dao Friend, where did you go?”

Li Su replied casually, “I found a restriction and studied it.”

The other cultivator shared, “Oh, we just discussed sealing this place and planting herbs, opening it every 100 years.”

Li Su responded calmly, “Is that so? That sounds like a good idea.”

This incident elevated Li Su’s status among the North Domain’s Nascent Soul cultivators. His exceptional knowledge of formations surpassed even that of the Falling Cloud Sect’s leader, and as skilled formation masters were rare, many Nascent Soul cultivators approached him. Some even requested his help to improve their protective sect formations.

While Li Su was open to assisting, he clarified that he would set his schedule for such tasks and help when he had free time.

After the necessary preparations were made, the main expeditionary force began its journey back, leaving Golden Core cultivators behind to oversee the area and dispatch disciples to plant herbs, with each sect assigned to specific mountain peaks. The plan was to open the area every hundred years to maintain the spiritual energy concentration.

The departure of the eight major sects and the North Domain cultivators was met with a farewell. Some cultivators approached Li Su with parting gifts, and a few bold female cultivators offered him small gifts and heartfelt letters, showcasing their admiration for him. During the expedition, Li Su had captured the hearts of many female cultivators, and his reputation for considering taking concubines had further piqued their interest.

As they prepared to depart, several female cultivators boldly flew up to Li Su, offering him gifts, including heartfelt letters, showing their admiration. By the time they returned, Li Su had amassed many gifts and letters.

Clearly, some believed Li Su might take more concubines, which motivated others to excel in their cultivation and strive for his attention.

Back on the flying boat, Li Su and his disciple discussed their plans. Li Su insisted his disciple keep the spiritual stones, as half of them were initially intended for him, but he was hesitant, suggesting Li Su should keep them.

The harvest from this expedition had been substantial, and Li Su spent considerable time inventorying the items and refining some of the herbs despite their low-grade status. Their long growth period made them highly effective.

The news of Li Su’s performance in the immortal sect ruins once again spread throughout the entire North Domain.
