Patriarch is Taking Concubines Again!

Chapter 233

As Li Su reached the later stages of Divine Transformation, progressing became increasingly difficult. His golden-purple Primordial Spirit, though exceptional, posed a unique challenge due to his fourth-grade spiritual root.

Li Su faced a bottleneck, even with a first-grade spiritual root. Advancing to the next level required significant cultivation, but he wasn’t in a hurry. His growth rate surpassed those with Immortal Spiritual Roots, but he preferred steady progress.

Feedback from his descendants poured in, mainly related to cultivation. For example, Mengmeng would cultivate for a year and return around eight months of gains. Feedback rates varied based on spiritual roots. Mengmeng’s third-grade spiritual root gave her a 60% rate.

Li Ling’er’s feedback was 100% equivalent to a body cultivator’s gains, but the gap between her and Li Su remained significant. More spiritual root descendants would accelerate his growth.

On his 300th birthday, various cultivators attended the lively celebration. Representatives from sects interested in recruiting Li Su were present, and the Peak Master of Dieyun, who had a hundred-year agreement with him, remained calm. She believed the Returning Origin Sect had the best chance if Li Su decided to join.

After twenty years of their agreement, she planned to observe Li Su’s progress. If he achieved remarkable growth, the sect might reconsider unconventional methods to win him over.

Li Su’s name became widely known after the celebration, primarily due to his habit of taking concubines. His notoriety surpassed other Nascent Soul-stage cultivators. He had taken many talented female disciples from the Xuantian Academy, sparking discussions among cultivators.

There was curiosity about the woman Li Su had captured, but she had not returned. Despite a lack of information from the Nascent Soul expert Li Su had captured, he believed the message had been received. He remained cautious, knowing the other party might act fiercely, but was confident in handling them with his increased strength in the late Divine Transformation stage. His methods had also become more refined over time.

His expertise in formations, alchemy, and crafting magical artifacts steadily advanced. With the growing number of women from the sea clan influenced by Li Su, his lineage was consistently strengthening.

“Mo Lin, I’ve deliberately limited my cultivation to the third layer of the Nascent Divinity stage. Your ability to defeat me now depends solely on your skills,” Li Su’s voice echoed above the North Sea, where Mo Lin, the Divine Spirit Loli, stood.

Mo Lin had successfully harnessed her true dragon bloodline, and her dedication to cultivation had elevated her to the third level of the divine transformation stage. The enhancement from unlocking her true dragon bloodline was profound.

Mo Lin held no grudge against Li Su for her initial defeat but was determined to unlock her true dragon bloodline and challenge him again. On a different battlefield, Li Su had already subdued her, and she had become completely compliant. Before their confrontation above the North Sea, Li Su had spent several days disciplining Mo Lin.

To ensure fairness, Li Su intentionally restricted his cultivation to the third level of the divine transformation stage. When the battle began, Mo Lin transformed into a formidable black dragon, more imposing than before, still adorned with the custom-made scale armor crafted by Li Su.

The battle was swift, leaving Mo Lin somewhat frustrated, as even with her unlocked true dragon bloodline, she couldn’t match Li Su at the same level. Li Su embraced her and proposed, “Mo Lin, let’s have a child. Since you can’t defeat me, let our child continue the legacy.” Mo Lin blushed.

Conceiving a child was even more daunting for Mo Lin than for Bai Ling. It took several years for Mo Lin to become pregnant and two more years before she finally gave birth. Auger race offspring were rare, making childbirth quite a challenge. However, with Li Su’s use of celestial and earthly treasures, their child possessed an incredibly potent bloodline, surpassing even Mo Lin’s.

Their daughter’s bloodline was even mightier than Mo Lin’s, possessing a True Dragon Bloodline, and could transform into a legendary dragon once reaching the Foundation Establishment stage. Mo Lin couldn’t achieve this transformation despite her remarkable bloodline.

Mo Lin’s grandfather, Mo Qi, was thrilled because their daughter had inherited a Legendary Dragon Bloodline, highly esteemed among dragon species. Mo Lin and Li Su’s daughter, once reaching Foundation Establishment, could transform into a legendary dragon, a remarkable feat.

Although Mo Lin couldn’t transform into a legendary dragon, their daughter’s bloodline was equivalent to a sect leader’s Immortal Spirit Root, offering a significant advantage. However, it would be incredibly challenging for Mo Lin to have more offspring.

Their daughter’s extraordinary bloodline, coupled with Li Su’s support, played a role in enhancing Li Su’s cultivation and physical abilities. After receiving rewards from the system, Li Su focused on further expanding his physical cultivation.

He named their daughter Li Zhen’er due to her enchanting eyes resembling pearls. Several peaceful years passed, and one day, Li Su received substantial rewards for having a descendant with a spiritual root that reached a thousand, granting him ten thousand years’ worth of cultivation and experience.

With ten thousand years of cultivation, Li Su made a significant breakthrough to the ninth level of the Divine Transformation stage, a consequential increase in power. His strength was soaring, and this progression didn’t follow a linear path but occurred in leaps when significant rewards were earned.

In addition to the cultivation, Li Su received ten thousand years of experience, which he mainly applied to his physical training. This elevated his physical strength to the level of the early Divine Transformation stage, complementing his overall power.

Li Su acknowledged the limitations of pure physical cultivation but understood its significance in confrontations. He continued to study formations, but he knew they had their constraints, especially against formidable opponents. Nonetheless, the synergy between his overall strength and physical cultivation made him a more formidable combatant.

The confrontation ability provided by his physical cultivation was crucial, even though formations had their advantages, particularly in home defense and protection.

At this stage, Li Su could be considered a practitioner of the Law and Physical cultivation. Moreover, in this recent wave of substantial rewards, there was a bonus – a significantly increased likelihood of special inherent traits appearing among Li Su’s descendants. These special traits could be similar to the Lunar Jade Spirit Body, Pure Yin Body, Sea Flame Body, or Primordial Dao Body, among others. These unique traits could greatly speed up the process of cultivation.

Despite being at the ninth level of Divine Transformation, he was still in the later stages of the Divine Transformation stage. Advancing one more level would bring him to the tenth level of Divine Transformation, which was the peak of that stage.

Another wave of substantial rewards is on the horizon, Li Su thought. With his descendants numbering almost a million, he was bound to receive another wave of significant rewards after surpassing the one million mark. Although the cultivation needed to progress from the ninth to the tenth level of Divine Transformation was extremely challenging, with this new wave of substantial rewards, it should be possible for Li Su to advance to the peak of the Divine Transformation stage.
