Concubines Lead to Strength: The Path to Immortality Begins with Taking a Spouse

Chapter 107: Chapter 107: Easily Slaying the Reach Profound Demon Beast, There’s Treasure Below!

“Young Master, moving forward, we will mostly encounter demon beasts of the Reach Profound Realm Grade 4 and possibly even those of the Fifth-grade Ruins Realm,”

Gu Qianjun warned as they had penetrated deep into the Hundred Miles, yet the Young Master’s pace had not slowed at all.

Hearing this, Gu Changge simply smiled and responded, “Exactly what I want, the Reach Profound Realm!”

Along the way, they had slain mostly demon beasts of the Sky-controlling Realm, each of which provided merely a single Attribute Point.

Too few!

It would have to be at least the Reach Profound Realm, where each beast yielded a hundred Attribute Points, and should they encounter beasts of the Ruins Realm, Gu Qianjun’s strength would surely stand a chance to defeat them.

He and Wang Yue only needed to defend themselves.

Though possessing two Body Technique Divine Powers, facing a Ruins Realm alone might complicate his escape. However, with Gu Qianjun drawing their attention, he was confident they could withdraw.

As for the danger, there wasn’t much to worry about. The elder had even contacted him via Divine Sense earlier, indicating that he wouldn’t interfere too much, but if there were anything he needed help with, he should just say the word.

“If the elder would help capture a few Seventh Grade Unlimited Realm demon beasts…”

“The Attribute Points would be endless.”

Gu Changge contemplated the thought, but ultimately dismissed it.

Currently, there wasn’t an urgent need for a large number of Attribute Points, and it would be awkward to explain such actions.

Unless absolutely necessary, there was no need to proceed in that manner.

Having Gu Qianjun, a Ruins Realm cultivator, act as his thug was sufficient for accumulating Attribute Points quickly.

Furthermore…

He had just received several system notifications.

[Daoist Couple: Liu Qingqing (Reach Profound Realm – Perfection), Reward for killing Qi Sea Realm demon beast: 10 Attribute Points]

[Daoist Couple…]

[Daoist Couple: Liu Qingqing (Reach Profound Realm – Perfection), Reward for killing Reach Profound Realm demon beast: 100 Attribute Points.]

Clearly, his wife had also been busy.

After parting ways with him, she had started hunting demon beasts in the original forest of No Master Land, and her timely final blows, guided by her prompts, were quite effective.

Glancing at his wife beside him, who hadn’t attacked any demon beast from the beginning and seemed to be enjoying the trip like a leisurely tour of the mountains and waters, she showed curiosity about No Master Land, but she couldn’t be bothered to engage with the demon beasts. Perhaps it was because the highest of those beasts was only of the Qi Sea Realm, and Wang Yue found them uninteresting.

“This No Master Land is vast, I wonder if we might encounter Qingqing.”

“She should only be two or three hundred miles away from the city by now.”

Thinking this, the trio did not stop but advanced deeper for two hundred miles, where Qi Sea Realm demon beasts had notably increased.

Though they had not spotted any Ruins Realm beast, they had encountered two from the Reach Profound Realm.

The first Reach Profound Realm beast was swiftly rendered limb-disabled by Gu Qianjun, and handed over to him for the final blow, rewarding one hundred Attribute Points.

As for the second one, he felt tempted to test his own strength.

“Hold your fire, I want to try this on my own.”

Seeing that Gu Qianjun had already drawn his long spear, he raised his hand slightly and spoke.

“Young Master, this Reach Profound Realm demon beast is not like humans of the Human Clan; though it doesn’t use Magic Treasures or such, its thick hide and immense strength make it more difficult to handle than those in its Realm.”

“Perhaps I should disable it first before you strike…”

Gu Qianjun, stunned for a moment, urged with a hand gesture.

“No worries, it’s just a difference of one Great Realm, shouldn’t be a big problem.”

The demon beast looked like an armadillo, possibly a defense-oriented type, with a body surface resembling black, armored, hardened skin.

Without hesitating further, Gu Changge leaped from his Spirit Steed as soon as the beast noticed him, and a Flying Sword carrying the terrifying Sword Intent made straight for its left eye.

However, the beast, calm and collected like an armadillo, violently jerked its body, its hard tail meeting the Flying Sword with a clang of metal on stone!

The Flying Sword rebounded, and only a white mark was left on the tail without breaking the skin.

At the same time, the massive body burrowed into the ground, vanishing.

Before Gu Changge could catch the rebounding Flying Sword, the demon beast burst from the ground beneath him, savagely biting towards him in mid-air, ten meters up.

“It seems cumbersome, but I didn’t expect it to move so fast…” @@novelbin@@

Gu Changge murmured, yet remained unfazed, swiftly moving to one side using the Shadow Concealing Step.

He also noticed that apart from the hard skin on its back, the beast’s belly appeared normal, showing its flesh color.

Without hesitation, he brought two fingers together, targeting its belly.

Transformed by the Twelve Petal Lotus, the Heavenly Cold Finger Divine Skill had changed its characteristics entirely.

A burst of Xuanhuang Qi shot from his fingertips, precisely hitting the demon beast’s belly.

“Wuu—” In pain, the beast screamed and once again retreated into the hole it had emerged from.

It seemed caught off guard that a Qi Sea Realm human hadn’t been devoured in one bite, but instead, had injured it.

For a long while, it didn’t reappear.

“Tsk, Reach Profound Realm demon beasts aren’t that impressive, took a hit and ran off.”

Seeing this, Gu Changge steadily landed on the ground, walking nonchalantly towards Gu Qianjun.

“Young Master, be careful!”

Gu Qianjun, observing this, immediately shouted out in alarm and raised his hand to summon his long spear to help the Young Master out of the crisis.

Just as the demon beast had suddenly attacked the Young Master, he had been about to intervene; luckily, there had been a close escape with no mishap.

The Young Master clearly lacked experience, being so careless, and the beast would certainly seize this opportunity to attack.

Sure enough, the ground trembled slightly, and behind Gu Changge, the tracks of the Demon Beast suddenly appeared, ferociously attempting to bite at his neck.

Seeing his oblivious demeanor, Wang Yue instinctively prepared to use the Divine Skill Emperor Seal to strike.

However, Gu Changge paused for a moment, then suddenly turned around and pointed again towards its abdomen!

“Reach Profound Realm Demon Beast, after all, you’re not smart enough!”

A comprehension of two hundred not only enhanced his mastery in Cultivation Technique Divine Power but also improved his Divine Sense.

Even though the Demon Beast was hundreds of meters deep underground, he was still able to clearly capture its tracks!

But the Demon Beast showed no intention of dodging, clearly planning to take the hit of Divine Power and bite off his neck!

As expected, his finger landed on its abdomen, causing the Demon Beast to shriek in pain, and blood gushed from its open mouth, but it was not enough to take its life.

Gu Qianjun’s long spear had already turned into a dark beam of light, falling towards the Demon Beast’s body, intending to pin it to the ground!

But faster than the long spear was Gu Changge’s Flying Sword!

With a raise of his hand, the Flying Sword, carrying a terrifying Sword Intent, directly passed through the wide open mouth of the Demon Beast, wildly slashing inside its body!

Even though the Demon Beast still charged at him with inertia, Gu Changge, who initially planned to dodge, stood still upon seeing the long spear.

Wait until the long spear fell, perfectly pinning the Demon Beast right under his feet.

The Flying Sword burst out from inside the Demon Beast, spun a few times in the air to shake off the blood, and was then sheathed back by Gu Changge.

[Host has slain a Reach Profound Realm Demon Beast, reward Attribute Point: 100]

“Young Master… was this all intentional?”

With a sigh of relief, Gu Qianjun came up and asked a bit awkwardly.

“Although the Reach Profound Realm Demon Beast has developed Spirit Intelligence, it’s still not smart enough.”

“Just a slight bait and it fell for the trap, making the slaughter effortless,” Gu Changge said with a light chuckle shaking his head.

He had wanted to use this Demon Beast to test his own strength against the Reach Profound Realm, but now it seemed that the Demon Beast was too weak.

Gu Qianjun scratched his head awkwardly, even he had thought the Young Master was inexperienced just now, doesn’t that imply he wasn’t smart either?

As for Wang Yue, he silently withdrew his hand.

“Which is more difficult to deal with, this Demon Beast or a cultivator of the same Realm?” Gu Changge asked Gu Qianjun, who had just finished disposing of the Demon Beast’s body, as he returned to his Spirit Steed.

“Normally, the Demon Beast should be more difficult.”

“But… the Young Master is extraordinary, merely at the Qi Sea Realm, yet you’ve mastered the movement technique to a Small Success, and also possess a powerful Divine Skill.”

“You even hold a Sword Intent that even those in the Ruins Realm rarely comprehend.”

“With a Top Grade Dark Grade Flying Sword, defeating an enemy across a Great Realm is indeed effortless.”

“However, if it drags on too long, the Young Master, being at a lower Realm, might run out of Spiritual Energy; you are more suited for quick resolutions.”

Gu Qianjun seriously analyzed the situation he had observed.

Hearing his words, Gu Changge remained nonchalant.

Speaking of endurance battles, he probably could outlast even those at the Perfection of Reach Profound Realm.

Even without consuming an Elixir, he naturally had three Qi Seas, not to mention the Twelve-Grade Lotus in the Qi Sea that could constantly draw Spiritual Energy from the heavens and earth, replenishing it all the time.

Thinking this, he suddenly raised his eyebrows slightly, noticing something unusual about the Twelve-Grade Lotus in his Qi Sea.

The Spiritual Energy in one direction seemed to be somewhat more abundant.

Thinking this, he moved about three hundred meters north, and the feeling became even more apparent.

Under the puzzled gazes of the two, he moved back and forth, searching around the spot of their recent battle.

Neither spoke to interrupt.

Until Gu Changge suddenly lit up, “It’s here!”

Standing here, he could clearly feel that the Twelve-Grade Lotus was absorbing nearly twice the usual concentration of Spiritual Energy.

Right beside his foot was the deep hole from which the Demon Beast had first attacked.

In the heat of the battle, he hadn’t noticed anything unusual about the Twelve-Grade Lotus.

But now, the feeling was very clear!

“There seems to be some treasure beneath here,” he said, pointing to the hole that was at least a hundred meters deep, as both looked at him.

“Treasure?”

Gu Qianjun and Wang Yue also came over upon hearing this.

But peering into the hole, even extending their Divine Sense, they detected nothing.

However, the Young Master’s words were beyond doubt.

Immediately, he said, “Young Master, wait while I check below.”

With a leap, he dove straight down the hole.

“Why can’t I feel anything here?” Wang Yue stood at the edge of the hole, curiously speaking to him.

“Wait and see, I’m not sure either,” Gu Changge said, also not in a hurry.

After a moment…

Gu Qianjun’s figure flew out of the hole again.

Seeing his excited yet somewhat confused and admiring gaze, Gu Changge knew he must have been right—there was something down there!
