Longevity Clan Starts with the Patriarch's Marriage

Nobody knew that Han Li, famed across the Xuan Domain, was in seclusion, attempting a breakthrough, still only at the First Heaven of the True Martial Realm. Everyone outside believed he was a peak-level powerhouse of the True Martial Realm.

As soon as Han Li’s thoughts moved, the massive amount of cultivation he had accumulated on the panel began to be consumed at a rapid pace, with many years’ worth of cultivation being used up every second to enhance Han Li’s strength.

In the blink of an eye, Han Li entered the Enlightenment State, began practicing martial techniques, probing mysteries, and creating laws. This state lasted for a very long time, with every instant being equivalent to a hundred years, continuously perfecting the embryonic form of his omnipotent martial true intent.

In reality, a moment passed, but in the Enlightenment State, it equated to one hundred years. This caused the degree of perfection of Han Li’s embryonic form of omnipotent martial true intent to surge tremendously, pushing toward deeper levels as though he was about to step into an extremely profound domain.

51%…60%…70%…

With every passing century, Han Li’s understanding of the embryonic form of omnipotent martial true intent deepened substantially. He grasped endless martial profundities and was inundated with the infinite truths of the Dao. Han Li was devouring and wildly comprehending them, absorbing and digesting.

When Han Li awoke from the Enlightenment State, all of the mysteries he had comprehended converted into his cultivation, causing it to soar steadily. His aura surged, growing stronger and stronger to the extent that it seemed to suppress the Nine Heavens. Even the void started to warp under the influence of his aura as though it would shatter.

True Martial Realm Second Heaven!

True Martial Realm Third Heaven!

True Martial Realm Fourth Heaven!

True Martial Realm Fifth Heaven!

Han Li’s aura continued to rise frantically, reaching an extreme intensity. His cultivation was still growing, advancing by leaps and bounds, heading straight for the Sixth Heaven of the True Martial Realm.

Soon, Han Li’s aura broke through a critical point, stepping into a new domain. His cultivation reached the Sixth Heaven of the True Martial Realm, and his aura surged by many times, disturbing the stability of the void.

“Huh~”

After a good while, Han Li exhaled deeply, opened his eyes, and divine light flickered within, like two great stars circulating, terrifying in their majesty.

“What a supremely powerful force, is this the combat ability of the Divine Yuan Realm level?”

Han Li murmured to himself, extremely satisfied with this breakthrough. In one go, he had shot from the First Heaven of the True Martial Realm to the Sixth Heaven, progress that could be described as meteoric.

In just under half a quarter of an hour, he broke through five minor realms, all while still in the True Martial Realm. This news, if it spread to the outside world, would be sure to cause a huge stir and shake the entire Qianyuan Divine Province.

Even the Great Emperors of ancient times had not achieved such a swift series of breakthroughs in the True Martial Realm; breaking through five minor realms in half a quarter of an hour was truly shocking and defied all norms.

After stabilizing his aura, Han Li finally turned to the panel to check the cultivation consumed by this breakthrough.

[System Notification: Congratulations to the master for advancing to the Second Heaven of the True Martial Realm, consuming 50 years of cultivation.]

[System Notification: Congratulations to the master for advancing to the Third Heaven of the True Martial Realm, consuming 75 years of cultivation.]

[System Notification: Congratulations to the master for advancing to the Sixth Heaven of the True Martial Realm, consuming 150 years of cultivation.]

“Hiss~”

Even though he had expected it, Han Li still took in a sharp breath of spiritual energy.

Just breaking through five minor realms, he had used up 500 years of cultivation, which was an immense amount.

Consider that his advancement from the peak of the Myriad Phenomena Realm to the First Heaven of the True Martial Realm had only used up six hundred years of cultivation, and it becomes clear how difficult it is for the Emperors of the True Martial Realm to break through.

Han Li clicked his tongue in wonder.

Even after his talent had improved to Third Grade, the breakthrough had still consumed 500 years of cultivation. Had he still been at Fourth Grade, it would have required a thousand years to advance to the Sixth Heaven of the True Martial Realm.

Glancing at the remaining cultivation on the panel, Han Li sighed. This advancement had nearly drained all his resources.

Before the breakthrough, he had accumulated a full 542 years of cultivation, and in just under half a quarter of an hour, five hundred years had evaporated, earning him the realm of the Sixth Heaven of the True Martial Realm, as well as the combat ability of a Divine Yuan Emperor.

Closing his personal panel, Han Li inquired about the cultivation needed for subsequent breakthroughs, and his expression gradually soured.

“Damn!”

Master Han could not help but curse.

Now at the realm of the Sixth Heaven of the True Martial Realm, to break through to the Seventh Heaven, he needed a full two hundred years of cultivation, for the Eighth Heaven three hundred years, and for the Ninth Heaven four hundred years.

For these next three minor realms, he would need a total of nine hundred years of cultivation, so Han Li couldn’t help but exhale deeply to calm his emotions.

Nine hundred years of cultivation was what it would take to break through to the Ninth Heaven of the True Martial Realm, and to cultivate to the perfected state of the Ninth Heaven, the peak of the True Martial Realm, would need yet another hundred years of cultivation.

“How many years will I need to accumulate to save up a thousand years of cultivation?” Master Han sighed.

If his talent were to improve to Second Grade, the needed cultivation would be halved. But since he had just improved to Third Grade with only 4% progress, the leap to Second Grade talent was still so far off as to be almost out of reach.

The total number of his descendants had now reached 1098, with 413 of them being of talent pedigree; the ratio had further narrowed, but it would still be a long time before the next reward could be anticipated.

A total of two thousand descendants was required for a new reward, which was very substantial, but still far off. However, reaching 500 talented descendants could be something to look forward to, as the reward would probably be significantly higher than at four hundred.

“I hope that by the time the total number of descendants reaches 2000, the number of talented descendants will have truly broken through the thousand mark,” Han Li said with a hint of expectation on his face.
