Longevity Clan Starts with the Patriarch's Marriage

Hence, Han Li decided to wait until his realm further advanced, his combat ability stepped into the Divine Yuan Realm, and he possessed the battle prowess of an Emperor Wu level, before making his move to assassinate Chu Dingqian.

He was not in a hurry, after all, Chu Dingqian wouldn’t be able to reincarnate anytime soon, and Han Li still had time to wait.

After Han Li left, in the Great Hall of the Forbidden Grounds of the Imperial Palace, Chu Dingqian suddenly awoke.

He had just sensed a faint malice aimed at him, which put Chu Dingqian on high alert.

His powerful Spiritual Sense surged out, scrutinizing the area outside the Forbidden Grounds, the entire Imperial Palace, and even scanning the Capital City several times, paying particular attention to the Li Manor.

Chu Dingqian suspected that the malice might come from Li Feiyu, but found no evidence. After relaxing, he felt that he might have been overly suspicious.

How could Li Feiyu know about his situation and sneak into the Imperial Palace to assassinate him?

Besides, he possessed the Soul-Cultivating Furnace, making him stronger than Li Feiyu. If it really were Li Feiyu, it would be simple to just kill him directly.

If it were another powerhouse, such as Ye Fan, who suddenly appeared and injured four True Martial Realm experts of two great Sacred Lands, he would be facing a peak True Martial Realm ultimate powerhouse whom he couldn’t withstand even with the Soul-Cultivating Furnace in hand.

“Hopefully, I’m just overthinking it,” Chu Dingqian muttered to himself before returning to sit cross-legged in front of the Soul-Cultivating Furnace.

He had thought about moving from this place, yet after hesitating he chose not to do so, reasoning that if the Daqian Imperial Palace wasn’t safe, the outside world would be even more dangerous.

Cultivating the Devil Fetus required a long time, and he would occasionally awaken to deal with affairs of the Da Qian Empire. Moreover, if other powerhouses targeted him, the Capital City would be the safest place. At least Li Feiyu was there to lend him aid.

In Li Mansion, at the Chong Xiao Pavilion.

Han Li continued to look towards the Imperial Palace, but not in Chu Dingqian’s direction, as his mind occasionally conjured an image of a beautiful silhouette.

“What a pity,” Han Li sighed.

Such a fine woman, how did she end up as the Empress of the Daqian Empire?

She was Emperor Qian’s Empress, which made Han Li somewhat cautious, as acting rashly could easily cause a backlash from the Daqian Empire.

If the Daqian Empire descended into chaos again, it would not be conducive to the development of Han Mansion or the Li Manor, and would not align with his original intentions.

As the sigh fell, Han Li’s figure disappeared from the Chong Xiao Pavilion, appearing beside Chu Xianlin, engaging with her affectionately.

Then Chu Xianlin directly expressed her desire for dual cultivation with her ancient ancestor, a sign of her insatiable craving. After a period of dual cultivation with her husband, her cultivation had soared, breaking through to the late stage of the Hollow Void Realm, which delighted Chu Xianlin immensely.

Chu Xianlin wished her husband could dual cultivate with her every day, so that she could quickly ascend to the Myriad Phenomena Realm and become a Great Grandmaster. In the future, advancing to the True Martial Realm would also be within her reach.

Unfortunately, her husband didn’t have just one wife. Not only did he have four wives, but also over forty concubines, so even if she wanted to engage in frequent dual cultivation, it was impossible as her husband believed in showering attention evenly.

Three months later.

Han Li stood atop Chengdao Peak with a beaming smile, feeling refreshed even in his breaths.

In these three months, his nights were filled with music and unceasing battles, sometimes even reversing day and night, but the result was gratifying.

The beloved wives and beautiful concubines of Han Mansion and the Li Manor had their cultivation levels significantly increased, those with higher cultivation levels improved by one or two minor realms, while those with lower cultivation levels improved by several minor realms, their cultivation progress had indeed skyrocketed.

In these three months, Han Li had unlocked three treasure chests, spending a total of fifteen years of cultivation effort, but his luck was not too bad.

The first chest yielded a Heaven Rank top-grade Magical Treasure, the second a Heaven Rank mid-grade Cultivation Technique, and the third a Second Grade Spirit Pill, a “True Martial Pill”.

Second-grade elixirs correspond to the Divine Yuan Realm, but the True Martial Pill is not meant for the martial emperors of the Divine Yuan Realm, nor even for the martial kings of the True Martial Realm, it is prepared for those grandmasters at the peak of the Myriad Phenomena Realm.

Taking a True Martial Pill, the probability of advancing to the True Martial Realm increases directly by over fifty percent, and it also aids in enhancing the quality of the condensed Martial True Pill, potentially improving it by one to three grades.

It could be said that the effects of the True Martial Pill are truly heaven-defying, directly creating a martial king in the True Martial Realm.

When Han Li obtained the True Martial Pill, he had already considered to whom he would give it.

Beyond these, what pleased Han Li the most was that his cultivation talent had ascended from fourth-grade to third-grade.

In these three months, many offspring were born within Han Mansion and in Li Mansion too, with nearly the same increase in population numbers for both, but the quality of Li Mansion’s offspring was countless times higher.

On Han Mansion’s side, twenty-nine were born, but only nine possessed cultivation talents, and none were high, somewhat raising Han Li’s talent;

In Li Mansion, the first batch of beautiful concubines he accepted all gave birth, totaling twenty-seven, all endowed with aptitudes, and as he predicted, the talents were around fifth or sixth-grade.

This provided Han Li with a massive amount of talent feedback, directly elevating his talent to third-grade.

With a smile, Han Li opened the system panel to take a glance.

Talent: Third-grade 4%

After ascending to third-grade talent, the resistance he received from the progeny with fifth or sixth-grade talents greatly lessened, otherwise, it would have been even more.

However, Han Li was not in a hurry, as his four beautiful wives in Li Mansion—Xue Qingyi, Chu Xianlin, Song Zhixuan, and Feng Ziyue—were all going to give birth in the next half-year, which would bring him quite a substantial amount of talent.

Han Mansion’s Lu Tianxiang, Jiang Baiye, Yun Miaoyi, and Gongsun Yue, these four beautiful wives, were also pregnant again, and in eight months, they would give birth,

Upon seeing that dual cultivation greatly increased their cultivation levels quickly, they also no longer resisted the prospect of having children.

Bai Keqing, the female Demon King he married three months ago, had also been pregnant for a long time and would give birth in seven months; this child would likely be of third-grade aptitude, bringing a large amount of talent feedback to Han Li.

The number of his talented descendants had already reached 377, and with the addition of 36 in these three months, it directly reached the standard for a new round of rewards.

Han Li glanced at the message panel, and the last system notification appeared before his eyes.

“With the number of your descendants possessing cultivation talents reaching four hundred, you have gained a hundred years of cultivation, you have received five Fifth Grade Longevity Pills, you have received a hundred years of talisman-making experience, and you have obtained the Heaven Rank lower-grade martial technique [Meteor Sword Scripture].”

After absorbing the hundred years of talisman-making experience, Han Li’s attainments in talisman-making rose to fourth-grade, and even within fourth-grade, he ranked among the middle level.

Under the bolstering of the embryonic form of the all-encompassing Martial True Intent, the Meteor Sword Scripture could rival supreme grade martial techniques of Heaven Rank. Han Li, using this technique, could unleash combat power at the pinnacle of the True Martial Realm, just as he could with the Six Harmonies Eight Desolations Fist and the Bulwark Imprisoning Stamp.

With this additional hundred years of cultivation, the reserves of Han Li’s cultivation had made a significant breakthrough, reaching 542 years, enough to allow him to break through many minor realms of strength.

After all, he was now of third-grade talent, which meant the amount of cultivation he needed was halved, although each minor realm still required a lot, compared to before.

“Hoo~”

Finally, after one last look at the majestic expanse of cloud waves, Han Li exhaled a breath, his figure disappearing from the summit of Chengdao Peak.

He arrived at his own sleeping chamber, then quickly arranged a formation and sat down cross-legged at the center of the formation.

A smile appeared on Han Li’s face, as he was about to begin his breakthrough.

As his mind moved, his aura instantly began to surge.
