Chapter 345: Chapter 188: Xiangxiang Advances to the True Martial Realm! The Effects of the Life-Prolonging Furnace! Traps in the Immortal Scripture Begin to Emerge! Xue Yueqing Sets Out_6

“Husband, ever since I’ve broken through to the True Martial Realm, I’ve felt a mysterious call growing stronger as time passes.”

“I’ve thought it over, and it must be because of the cultivation technique I am practicing, the ‘Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture.’ This unseen calling seems to be guiding me to seek out the remaining parts of the scripture.”

Lu Tianxiang’s expression was one of worry as she sighed.

Had it been earlier, she would have certainly rushed off in search of it excitedly, but now she no longer wanted to. She had a good husband, and she was not in need of powerful cultivation techniques, being able to practice even Shengyuan Realm techniques at will.

The ‘Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture’ may be an Immortal Scripture, but it only consisted of the first half and was likely missing the latter or middle parts.

Previously, she didn’t want to switch because she wanted to cultivate a complete Immortal Scripture, but now it seemed pointless. Instead of chasing after an elusive Immortal Scripture, it was more practical to practice saint-level cultivation techniques.

Moreover, the continuation of the ‘Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture’ could very well be hidden with hazards and traps, waiting for her to fall into them.

Otherwise, why would this mysterious call come forth just after she made a breakthrough to the True Martial Realm and perfected the initial part of the ‘Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture’? It couldn’t be such a coincidence.

Han Li raised his eyebrows, aware of Lu Tianxiang’s situation. He had previously urged her to switch to a different cultivation technique, but now his thoughts had changed as well.

He wanted Lu Tianxiang to continue her practice.

Even with the help of the Life-Prolonging Furnace, Lu Tianxiang’s potential could only be raised to a first-grade level at most, allowing her to practice up to the Tongxuan Realm, but reaching the Shengyuan Realm would be difficult. However, with the ‘Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture,’ it was different.

This Immortal Scripture might contain the means to help cultivators break through to the Shengyuan Realm and even the Heaven Imperial Realm or become immortal by transcending tribulations.

It’s just that Lu Tianxiang only knew too little of the ‘Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture,’ only the parts up to the True Martial Realm. The latter parts were the most critical.

The first half only recorded some trivial information and didn’t even include the breakthrough from the Myriad Phenomena Realm peak to the True Martial Realm or the method to condense King Grade Pills, let alone the method for condensing them.

Han Li had long determined that this Immortal Scripture was a trap, waiting for someone to cultivate it up to the True Martial Realm, then when they tried to retrieve the subsequent parts, the trap would spring—or perhaps, the schemer would continue fishing, not in a hurry to reap the harvest.

Now that he had grown much stronger and possessed the Void Bell, a top-tier Emperor-grade weapon, Han Li was confident he could take out this old monster scheming in the dark and claim the complete ‘Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture.’

Once Lu Tianxiang successfully cultivated the complete ‘Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture,’ he believed her achievement would be tremendous. Han Li did not want her to become indistinguishable from the masses. As his first wife, he held special affection for her.

Not just for Lu Tianxiang, but for Jiang Baiye, Yun Miaoyi, Gongsun Yue, and others as well, Han Li intended to pave the way for them, striving to enable them to cultivate to higher realms.

As for those beautiful concubines, Han Li had also come to terms. If they felt that immortality was meaningless and wished to die and reincarnate, he would not compel them any longer. However, if they wanted to live longer, he would provide the necessary assistance.

Embracing Sect Hierarch Lu Tianxiang, Han Li contemplated for a moment before saying, “Let’s do this, Tianxiang, take your time. In two or three years, your husband will assist you in retrieving the subsequent cultivation techniques of the ‘Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture.’

Although he was quite confident about going now, Han Li preferred to wait until he was absolutely certain. Otherwise, if the fisherman turned out to be a Prehistoric Giant Crocodile, he might find himself in deep trouble.”

“I’ll listen to my husband~”

Lu Tianxiang nodded, her alabaster, jade-like face shedding all worries and blossoming into a smile. Her enchantress charm emerged as she took the initiative to bite Han Li’s lips.

“How does Tianxiang want to repay her husband?” Lu Tianxiang asked shyly and timidly.

“Hahaha~ Of course, by allowing your husband to tenderly cherish his jewel.”

Laughing, Han Li scooped up Lu Tianxiang, and the two figures vanished from the peak of Chengdao Peak.

“Boom, boom, boom~”

Atop Chengdao Peak, Jiang Baiye, Yun Miaoyi, Bai Keqing, Long Yue, and others were startled awake, looking up at the sky, thinking it was going to rain, but found the sky clear and cloudless.

Yet, this urgent sound, resonating like thunder, echoed throughout Chengdao Peak, making the peak itself seem to shake.

The women exchanged glances, their Spiritual Sense surging forth to inspect the outside world, and saw that everything was as usual with the residents of Han Mansion, hearing nothing out of the ordinary. Then they understood.

Feeling somewhat helpless, they thought that the commotion caused by their husband this time was rather loud. Next time, we should do the same.

After a brief search, they learned that their husband was ‘battling’ with Lu Tianxiang, as she hadn’t come out and all of them were present there.

Demon Domain, Myriad Demon Mountain.

The Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing, who had been in seclusion for a long time, finally emerged.

Although she concealed her aura, there was a faint instability to it, a sign of a recent breakthrough in her realm.

“Sigh~ I’ve still made the breakthrough.”

A smile appeared on Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing’s face, for she had devoted much effort for this trip to the Xuan Domain.

She had used some precious treasures she had been reluctant to utilize before, refining them one by one, all to raise her realm.

She succeeded, breaking through from the third layer of the Divine Yuan Realm to the fourth.

It was just a minor increase in her level, but it was a significant jump from the early stage to the middle stage of the Divine Yuan Realm, and her combat ability had greatly improved.

Previously, she was not very sure about her journey to the Xuan Domain, but now she felt much more confident. With her current combat ability, she surely could achieve excellent results.

Leaving her place of seclusion, Xue Yueqing’s figure appeared at the peak of Myriad Demon Mountain, where she bowed and said, “Ancestor, Xue Yueqing wishes to borrow the Heavenly Moon Wheel.”

“Granted!”

A mighty voice rang out, followed by the appearance of a moon wheel, radiating divine light and potent force.

“Thank you, Ancestor!”

Xue Yueqing expressed her gratitude respectfully, picked up the Heavenly Moon Wheel, and vanished from the summit of Myriad Demon Mountain.

She only possessed a Top Grade Divine Weapon, which was a Shengyuan Realm Weapon, but compared to the Heavenly Moon Wheel, there was a significant difference. The Heavenly Moon Wheel was a Supreme Grade Divine Weapon with a complete Artifact Spirit and capable of unleashing terrifying power.

Moreover, the Heavenly Moon Wheel was quite compatible with her, and she had long coveted this Supreme Grade Divine Weapon, only her status was not yet sufficient.

According to the Ancestor, she needed to cultivate to the peak of the Divine Yuan Realm before she could wield this Supreme Grade Divine Weapon, at which point she would be able to unleash the combat ability of a Tongxuan Realm powerhouse.

“Finally, it’s complete.”

With high spirits, Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing departed, her figure leaving Myriad Demon Mountain and heading toward the Xuan Domain.

With the Heavenly Moon Wheel in her possession, her venture was almost certain to be successful.

However, before that, she needed to search the Xuan Domain to find her trusted subordinate, the female Demon King Bai Keqing.

Bai Keqing had been missing for seven or eight years, and although the life lamp showed no danger to her life and even appeared more vigorous, Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing was still somewhat worried.

She also wanted to see what exactly Bai Keqing was up to that allowed her cultivation to advance so rapidly in such a short time, seemingly reaching the mid-stage of the True Martial Realm.

Who exactly was Ye Fan, the one who rescued Bai Keqing? Xue Yueqing had investigated for years without a single clue.

Now that she had the chance, she decided to go in person. She shared a special bond with Bai Keqing that even Bai Keqing herself was unaware of.

With this fallback in place, she could trace Bai Keqing’s whereabouts.

When Xue Yueqing had created this fallback, it was to avoid accidents. Should something happen to Bai Keqing, she wanted to be able to rescue her.

As Bai Keqing had cultivated all the way to the True Martial Realm, Xue Yueqing thought she would not need this fallback, but as it turned out, it was still necessary.

Bai Keqing had great potential. If she could receive the support of Myriad Demon Mountain, there was hope for her to break through to the Divine Yuan Realm and become a new Demon Emperor.

That way, Xue Yueqing would have an additional helper, and the Demon Clan’s combat ability would be strengthened.

Despite the pressure from the Human Clan, the internal unity of the Demon Clan was quite strong, though there was competition, just not as intense as that within the Human Clan.

As the Demon Emperor, in order to gain more cultivation resources and a higher status, she too needed to achieve accomplishments worthy enough for the Ancestor to grant her.

PS: I got up at half-past eight to use the restroom, then started writing without even having breakfast. Finally finished, I’ll post earlier since it’s done ahead of schedule.
