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

Chapter 74

“Li Su,” said the sect leader, “top-tier spiritual weapons are rare treasures, so keep them for yourself.” She summoned the Flying Immortal Swords and sent them flying towards Li Su. While tempted by this set of high-quality spiritual weapons, she couldn’t help but think of Li Su’s rapid growth in strength. He might reach the Nascent Soul stage someday, and top-tier spiritual weapons were exceedingly rare, especially considering the scarcity of the materials required to craft them. Li Su would undoubtedly need them.

The sect leader hadn’t realized that reaching the Nascent Soul stage was incredibly challenging. Even with Su Yun’s fifth-grade spiritual roots, whether or not she could achieve Nascent Soul depended on fate and circumstances. The difficulty was immense. However, at this moment, she couldn’t shake the feeling that Li Su might ascend to the Nascent Soul stage at any time.

“Master, your disciple also has some,” Li Su replied. Seeing that the sect leader still hesitated to accept the swords, Li Su brought out another set of Flying Immortal Swords. “Master, take a look. I have another set,” he said.

Another set! The sect leader’s gaze shifted towards the second set of Flying Immortal Swords that Li Su had presented. To her surprise, this set was also made of high-quality spiritual weapons. Amazement welled up in her heart once more. Li Su had managed to craft two sets of top-tier spiritual weapons! She couldn’t help but wonder where Li Su had obtained so many materials.

Furthermore, Li Su’s level of craftsmanship in weapon forging was exceptionally high. Top-tier spiritual weapons were not something an ordinary weapon Smith could easily create. The path of weapon forging required significant time and dedication to achieve such results.

The Sect Leader couldn’t help but reflect on how much time Li Su must have spent delving into these unconventional methods in the past. “So, Master, please accept them,” Li Su urged again. Li Su nodded, and the sect leader didn’t refuse his gift this time. After all, she genuinely needed top-tier spiritual weapons. With a wave of her hand, she sent an object flying towards Li Su.

Li Su examined the object and noticed it emitted an incredibly pure spiritual energy. “This is a Spirit Crystal, usually only found in major spiritual stone mines. The spiritual energy inside is even purer, and it will be more effective when you’re breaking through to a higher realm,” the sect leader explained.

A Spirit Crystal! It was even better than spiritual stones but exceedingly rare. This small piece of Spirit Crystal was equivalent to tens of thousands of spiritual stones, yet its worth far exceeded that. If he tried to exchange it for tens of thousands of spiritual stones, most people wouldn’t even consider it. The spiritual energy within it was incredibly concentrated and pure, making it an excellent aid when breaking through to a higher realm.

Of course, Li Su himself… still had no use for it. This was probably intended for the sect leader’s personal use, as Li Su had given her highly valuable top-tier spiritual weapons, and she might have felt it was awkward to accept them. Li Su had previously gifted her the Infant Nurturing Pill and these high-quality spiritual weapons. Therefore, she decided to present the Spirit Crystal. “Master, please take it back. I give you gifts not as a repayment,” Li Su insisted.

However, Li Su didn’t accept it. He had no use for the Spirit Crystal himself, so he thought it would be better to let Su Yun and the others use it at a more appropriate time. Using a Spirit Crystal during the foundation-building stage would be wasteful. As for Su Yun’s attempt to break through to the Golden Elixir realm, Li Su had already prepared many elixirs for her.

The sect leader reluctantly took back the Spirit Crystal when she saw Li Su’s refusal. However, she couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy under Li Su’s gaze. Over the past few years, there had been a growing intensity in his eyes, a light that seemed to shine even brighter.

Several decades ago, Li Su had been very restrained in her presence. However, as Li Su’s cultivation grew, some of his thoughts unconsciously manifested in his gaze. The most noticeable change was that Li Su was now speaking to her much closer, and sometimes, he even dared to directly grasp her hand – although it was usually to pass something to her forcefully. This transformation occasionally quickened the sect leader’s heartbeat, though she never let it show.

“I’ll go consolidate my cultivation,” she said after stowing away the top-tier spiritual weapons. With formidable enemies on the horizon, she needed to make the most of her time to improve herself further. After breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, she had plenty of tasks ahead, such as learning Nascent Soul stage attack techniques, refining her combat skills, and enhancing her true essence, among other things.

Li Su escorted Qin Xiaoyue back to the Li Clan residence. The upcoming battlefield would be the Flying Immortal Sect. Although Qin Xiaoyue was a formidable Golden Elixir cultivator, her current pregnancy made it inappropriate for her to participate in combat. “Husband, this is for you,” Qin Xiaoyue said, handing Li Su a jade scroll. “It contains a secret technique from the wordless stone tablet. It has been fragmented for a hundred years, but I finally managed to piece it together.”

Li Su accepted the jade scroll, which contained the teachings of a unique secret technique. This technique explained how to gather thunderstorms and create a treasure called the “Purple Dawn Divine Thunder.” The Purple Dawn Divine Thunder was a disposable item. The more thunderstorms one collected, the higher the quality, and the more advanced the crafting techniques, the more powerful the resulting Purple Dawn Divine Thunder would be. This secret technique was profound, and some crafting methods described within were beyond Qin Xiaoyue’s understanding. It was essentially another form of “craftsmanship.”

“It’s quite impressive,” Li Su remarked after scanning it briefly. While he didn’t delve deep into the details, he recognized the value of this secret technique. Previously, the sect leader had gathered celestial thunder and crafted Thunder Beads, which could threaten even early Golden Elixir cultivators. However, Thunder Beads couldn’t compare to the power of the Purple Dawn Divine Thunder.

To some extent, Thunder Beads compressed and condensed the thunder, gathering it with true essence before releasing it. It was like an intense refinement process for the thunder, which wasn’t particularly complex. Once a more skilled Golden Elixir cultivator understood the method, they could create Thunder Beads.

However, the crafting process for the Purple Dawn Divine Thunder, as described in the secret technique, was on a whole different level of complexity and power. Foundation Building cultivators who knew the method could create Thunder Beads, but their power would be limited. The higher the cultivation level, the more powerful the Thunder Beads they could create because their stronger true essence allowed them to compress more thunder into the beads. However, collecting celestial thunder itself was time-consuming, and a considerable amount was needed to craft Thunder Beads.

The Purple Dawn Divine Thunder was significantly more potent than Thunder Beads. Unfortunately, time was running short. If Xiaoyue soon arrived, there wouldn’t be enough time to craft a fourth-rank Purple Dawn Divine Thunder. It would have been a valuable asset.

The only drawback is that the Dark Moon is probably coming soon, and time is limited. Otherwise, Li Su mused that creating a fourth-rank Purple Dawn Divine Thunder would have been quite an advantage.
