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

Chapter 122: Chapter 116: Earth Spirit Dew, Breakthrough to Reach Profound Realm!

When Gu Changge synchronized the effects of taking the Comprehension Pill,

[Host: Gu Changge]

[Root Bone: 225]

[Comprehension (+15): 220]

Even without looking at the panel, he could feel the significant changes in his Divine Sense and inside his body.

A full fifteen-point increase naturally had a significant effect.

“Who would have thought that there are actually elixirs in the world capable of creating a Pristine Dao Foundation…”

“If word of this gets out, I’m afraid Lord Husband would be fought over by all the powers in the Northern Domain.”

Wang Yue said this, excited yet also looking at him with some concern.

“That’s why my Wife needs to protect this secret carefully.”

As soon as she heard this, she immediately raised her hand to speak, “Today, I, Wang Yue, with my Tao Heart…”

“Don’t do it; a Tao Heart oath isn’t to be used lightly.”

Before she could finish, Gu Changge promptly took hold of her hand.

Facing her somewhat complex gaze, he simply said, “I trust you.”@@novelbin@@

These three words left Wang Yue completely stunned.

He was willing to trust her, even though there was no risk involved.

“My Wife’s mouth isn’t meant for taking oaths.”

Seeing her stunned, Gu Changge took the opportunity to chase after his victory, and directly sealed her sweet little mouth.

She offered no resistance, completely docile to his advances.

But those beautiful eyes began to well with mist.

Born into the Royal Family of the Northern Domain, she had only ever known deceit and struggle, a life-and-death competition where trust was a luxury and the expectation that others would trust her was even more far-fetched.

Fortunately, being a woman, she wasn’t involved in the Crown Prince’s conflicts and hadn’t been too deeply affected.

But in all these years, when had she ever experienced a moment like this?

After he interrupted her vow, and upon hearing those simple three words, her heart had skipped a beat.

Letting him carry her into the bedroom, she just wrapped her fair arms tightly around his neck.

…

After a long while.

The sky began to darken.

Gu Changge lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, lost in thought.

At this moment, he felt no different from a Saint!

Without desire or need, he wished to quietly contemplate life.

Where do people come from, and where do they go?

“What is Lord Husband thinking about?”

“Are you thinking about Sister Saintess?”

Wang Yue lay on his chest, looking up at him while she watched him, unable to restrain herself from asking after a long while.

“I’m thinking about whether my body can endure going on like this.”

Gu Changge slightly lowered his head to look at the beauty in his arms, somewhat helpless.

It was manageable now with just two wives, but what if he encountered a few more suitable ones in the future and formed a Daoist Couple with them?

He was really afraid that his body wouldn’t be able to endure!

After a period of intimacy, Wang Yue declared that she had no intention of leaving the city for the time being.

She began to cultivate in the seclusion room of the side hall.

Her Acquired Spirit Body and Pristine Dao Foundation made her eager to see just how much she could improve.

Moreover, she now felt a sense of urgency in her heart!

Lord Husband had too many secrets, and if she didn’t diligently cultivate, one day she might not even see his shadow.

She didn’t want to be left behind…

She still wanted to become the Empress of the Northern Domain, allowing Lord Husband to calmly live off her.

After all… he said he had a weak stomach, tsk… Obviously, he was fooling her again!

Once Wang Yue began her seclusion, Gu Changge proceeded to open the Daoist Couple panel, ready to share all the recent enhancements!

[Daoist Couple: Wang Yue]

[Root Bone: 100] (Synchronizable: 15)

[Comprehension: 100] (Synchronizable: 15)

[Cultivation Technique: Emperor Dragon Control Secret (Heavenly Rank Lower)]

[Realm: Reach Profound Realm – Perfection]

[Divine Skills: Emperor Seal (Heavenly Rank Lower) Soaring Dragon Transformation (Earth Rank Top Grade) Dragon Roar Sword Technique (Earth Rank Top Grade)]

He directly chose to synchronize the fifteen-point increase in Root Bone and Comprehension displayed on the panel.

Instantly, his two attributes soared by another 15 points.

[Host: Gu Changge]

[Root Bone: 240]

[Comprehension: 235]

“Just a bit more to the three hundred mark.”

“With the price of second-tier Bone Pills, another six thousand Attribute Points spent on elixirs would allow me to break through the three hundred mark.”

“It’s certainly much cheaper than increasing it with Attribute Points directly.”

Gu Changge looked at his panel, silently calculating in his mind.

If he were to increase it directly, his Root Bone would need a full thousand Attribute Points per point after breaking the two hundred mark!

The consumption required was a full five times that of converting the points into elixirs and having the Daoist Couple take them to then share the rewards through synchronization.

However, this was better as it allowed the Daoist Couple to continually improve their Root Bone Comprehension and not be left far behind him.

…

He had thought that Qingqing would come to find him after returning to Duanbei City these past few days.

But this wait turned out to be a full half a month!

Fortunately, knowing that the Sixth Elder was secretly protecting his wife, there were no dangers. The greater possibility was that she had encountered some unexpected fortune, which is why she hadn’t returned to the city yet.

During this half-month, besides the rewards from Wang Yue’s daily cultivation in seclusion,

he hadn’t wasted any time either.

The perfection of the Qi Sea Realm had also reached ninety percent progress.

“In another two or three days, I should be able to breakthrough to the Reach Profound Realm.”

Just as Gu Changge was very satisfied calculating the progress increase, he suddenly heard a prompt ringing by his ear.

[Daoist Couple: Liu Qingqing (Reach Profound Realm·Perfection), refining and absorbing Earth Spirit Dew, share?]

“Earth Spirit Dew?”

Gu Changge murmured in confusion, though he didn’t know what it was, it was clear that Qingqing had not returned this half-month precisely because she had found this item.

So he chose to share directly!

In an instant, a large amount of spiritual energy was born out of thin air within his body.

Attracted by the twelve-grade lotus, the spiritual energy was divided into thirds after being transformed and fell into the Qi Sea.

He could feel that his Qi Sea had been expanded to the limit; all that remained was to fill the Qi Sea with spiritual liquid, and then he could smash through the nonexistent bottleneck, directly advancing to the Reach Profound Realm!

As massive amounts of spiritual energy poured into the Qi Sea, his aura also climbed step by step.

By the time the spiritual energy was exhausted, the aura around him had already broken through the Qi Sea Realm, reaching the early stage of the Reach Profound Realm!

Within the Qi Sea inside his body, besides the spiritual liquid, three kernels had condensed, as smooth as jade.

Unlike others, he had three Qi Seas, and naturally, there were three kernels: one was a mysterious yellow color, another an ice blue, and the last one was golden.

Only when he reached the Reach Profound Realm could he truly unleash the effects of divine skills!

Although he previously had enough spiritual energy to support the use of divine skills, the quality of the spiritual energy was still not as good as the Reach Profound Realm, and the power exerted was also completely different.

“So this is the Reach Profound Realm…”

“No wonder only when you reach the Reach Profound Realm is it suitable to come to Duanbei City for experience.

“Before the Reach Profound Realm, divine skills can hardly exert their due effects.”

“I estimate that now, even if I were to encounter a fifth-grade Ruins Realm Demon Beast, I could suppress it with a raise of my hand!”

Gu Changge felt the strength increase brought about by the Reach Profound Realm, somewhat delighted and excited.

When he was in the Qi Sea Realm, he could suppress Demon Beasts of the Reach Profound Realm; now that he had broken through to the Reach Profound Realm, it shouldn’t be a problem to suppress fifth-grade Ruins Realm foes!

As for facing fifth-grade Ruins Realm Humans, he would be even more at ease.

With those divine skills of his, there weren’t many in the fifth-grade Ruins Realm that could master them to the extent he did!

Relying on the solid foundation laid by the three Qi Seas, coupled with a physique of more than two hundred Root Bones, bridging a Great Realm to defeat an enemy was effortless!

However, he was merely getting to know his own strength; he didn’t wish to take unnecessary risks…

Why risk it when you can resolve things safely?

Unless absolutely necessary…

In the seclusion room, Wang Yue also felt his breakthrough aura.

It didn’t take long before she ended her cultivation and poked her head out.

As expected, she saw him standing in the palace, his hand forming divine skills from time to time, but merely observing before dissipating them, testing his strength.

“Is it me who has been in seclusion, or Lord Husband?”

“How did you breakthrough to the Reach Profound Realm so quickly!?”

Wang Yue stepped forward, not sure whether to be happy for him or worried for herself.

She only joined the Gu Family over a month ago, and at that time, she was already at the late stage of the Reach Profound Realm!

As for Lord Husband, he seemed to have just broken through to the Qi Sea Realm at most!

Now a month had passed, other than the fortune of the Spirit Marrow in between, she didn’t see Lord Husband taking anything, yet he forcefully broke through to the early stage of the Reach Profound Realm!

“Indeed a bit slow, but no matter, I can accept that.”

Hearing her words, Gu Changge shamelessly laughed and said.

“…”

“I’m about to be unable to accept it.”

Wang Yue twitched the corner of her mouth, thinking how shameless Lord Husband was.

Two months ago, he was a mortal who couldn’t cultivate, but now he has transformed into someone at the early stage of the Reach Profound Realm.

He has almost caught up with her eighteen years of progress!

And he finds it slow?

His speed is not just a hundred times, but dozens of times faster than hers!

They say Liu Qingqing is a prodigy of the Northern Domain that comes once in a century, and that Lord Husband is a waste of the Gu Family.

But now…

With his speed of breakthrough, even going back ten thousand years in the Northern Domain, is there anyone who could compete with him?

I’ve never heard of anyone breaking through so quickly!

“Wife, are you not going to send news back to the Imperial City?”

Gu Changge wasn’t concerned about her amazement, instead, he teased.

“Maybe after some time. With the speed of Lord Husband’s breakthrough, if I send the news back, I’m afraid the Imperial City won’t believe it…”

“It’s really incredible; can’t even send true news for fear no one will believe it.”

Wang Yue smacked her lips, her face full of helplessness.

Untill now, she still maintained communications with the Imperial City, but every time before sending news back, she would let Lord Husband glance over the content to make sure it was all right before conveying it.

But the problem was that Lord Husband’s progress was too fast, so fast that she couldn’t even send back real updates!

How could she explain this situation?

Even she, witnessing his breakthrough journey by his side, still felt as if she were dreaming, not to mention whether others could accept it or not.

“No, I must continue to cultivate in seclusion!”

“I can’t be left too far behind, at least I have to use this opportunity to catch up with Sister Saintess…”

Wang Yue was originally planning to rest for a day after ending her seclusion, but seeing Lord Husband’s breakthrough to the Reach Profound Realm, a sense of urgency immediately surged in her heart.

She immediately turned back and dove into the seclusion room, planning to cultivate day and night, to break through to the Ruins Realm as soon as possible!

Gu Changge had intended to give her the Sudden Enlightenment Pill but seeing this didn’t rush, as she wouldn’t be able to breakthrough shortly anyway.

“Since Qingqing has already refined the fortune, she should be coming back.”

“Perfect time to check out the situation at the city gate these past few days.”

Having just broken through to the Reach Profound Realm, he was no longer in a hurry to cultivate. He decided to rest for a while and thus left the side hall, heading towards the North City Gate of Duanbei City.
