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

Chapter 157: Chapter 141: Refining a Pool of Spiritual Liquid, Reach Profound Realm Late Stage!

“Young Master, rest assured.”

“If there’s really any trouble, I, the old man, will certainly send a message to the Young Master.”

“It’s best to use that heaven-defying ability sparingly.”

After giving a serious reminder, Old Blind Man disappeared from the spot.

He had also guessed what the Young Master was thinking just now, probably worried they would not be able to intervene in time and Liu Qingqing would be harmed by the demon beast.

So he directly spoke up to remind him that he would take the initiative to send a message if he were indeed troubled.

“Thank you.”

Gu Changge nodded slightly; he had acted out of urgency just now and had had no choice.

However, he also wanted to try out the effects of his Innate Divine Ability, which so far had proven to be very satisfying to him.

Being only at the Mid-Stage of the Reach Profound Realm, he was able to resist an attack from a Sixth Grade demon beast unscathed with the Golden Lotus Divine Power, and most likely, he would have no trouble withstanding two attacks.

He could even rely on the Transcendence Talent from the Tao Bell to slay a Sixth Grade demon beast with a single sword strike!@@novelbin@@

It has to be said that the demon beast’s defensive hide had already been breached, but this was still incredibly heaven-defying!

A difference of two entire Great Realms!

Everyone was utterly shocked after hearing his explanation.

“Even if I were to face Young Master, I would probably only have a dead end.”

Looking at the headless corpse of the Sixth Grade demon beast on the ground, Gu Qianjun said with a click of his tongue.

Unless one is always on guard and maintains a protective layer of Spiritual Energy, one would not be able to avoid being killed by a single sword strike!

Even so, constantly maintaining a Spiritual Energy protective layer would also consume a lot of Spiritual Energy.

“There are really many secrets to Husband…”

“Every time I think Husband is already heaven-defying enough, I discover something even more outrageous…”

Wang Yue looked at her Husband as though looking at a monster.

“That’s amazing!”

Yuan Youbai also transformed into a human form, patting off the dust on her Dragon Scale Soft Armor.

When she looked at her Husband, her eyes were filled with admiration!

Dragons admire strength, and the power that Husband had shown made her eyes almost twinkle with little stars.

The fact that he could kill a Sixth Grade demon beast that was even stronger than her proved his might.

But what made Yuan Youbai admire him the most was that Husband was still at the Fourth Grade of the Reach Profound Realm!

“Husband should still prioritize his own well-being next time…”

Liu Qingqing pursed her lips, unable to help speaking up.

She had just been terrified.

Seeing that Bone Stick smash down on Husband, her heart felt even more flustered than when she had seen it smash toward herself!

After all, she was already in the Ruins Realm; even if she were heavily injured by a blow, she would still have a chance to save her life.

But if Husband couldn’t use his Talent in time and took a hit, he would likely be dead without a doubt!

“If Wife is in danger, I naturally cannot look on and do nothing.”

Gu Changge met her still-fearful gaze, smiled lightly, and raised his hand to rub her hair.

Besides, he was quite confident that even if he used the Transcendence Talent, he would still have the chance to summon the Golden Lotus for protection.

However, he also noticed that after using the Transcendence Talent of the Tao Bell twice in a row, his Divine Soul felt somewhat tired.

The Tao Bell doesn’t consume Spiritual Energy, but it does consume the Divine Soul, which can only be slowly recovered through rest and cultivation.

Liu Qingqing, having her head rubbed by her Husband, felt extremely grateful despite the lingering fear in her heart, sensing her importance in her Husband’s heart.

Gu Qianjun efficiently began harvesting the Sixth Grade demon beast’s corpse without waiting for any instructions from the Young Master.

He took out the inner core of the demon beast with a long spear, cleansed it of blood with his Spiritual Energy, and then looked hesitantly at the Young Master.

“Give the inner core to Wife.”

“Keep everything else for yourself.”

Gu Changge did not hesitate and directly handed the inner core to Liu Qingqing.

What he was more concerned about was not the corpse of the demon beast.

But the prompt in his mind!

[Host has killed a Sixth Grade Refining Void Realm demon beast, awarded 10,000 Attribute Points.]

A full ten thousand Attribute Points!

Enough to exchange for fifty second-grade Elixirs!

This trip to the Demon Beast Forest was worth it just for this one Sixth Grade demon beast!

Not to mention there was also a pool of Spiritual Liquid in the cave, which was also invaluable.

“Young Master, I will take this demon beast outside the cave for proper treatment.”

“You and the ladies go ahead and refine the Spiritual Liquid.”

Gu Qianjun spoke while he lifted the corpse of the demon beast with his spear, carrying it on his back.

Holding the demon beast’s head in one hand, he bowed slightly and then headed out of the cave.

Gu Changge said nothing more, planning to share the treasures from the Sixth Grade demon beast’s body with him after they returned.

Once he had left, everyone then moved into the smaller cave, where Liu Qingqing raised her hand to set up a barrier that screened off the entire cave.

Gu Changge also noticed that after his Wife set up the barrier, another barrier like a flowing ripple of water appeared outside.

It must be the doing of Old Blind Man and his companion.

It was to ensure that he didn’t have to worry, that no one would see…

“Don’t just stand there like a dummy.”

“Go on and refine the Spiritual Liquid.”

Gu Changge said offhandedly, while being stared at intently by the three.

“Husband, the best effect of refining the Spiritual Liquid comes from disrobing and sitting in the pool.”

“It also speeds up the process.”

Wang Yue said with a smile in her eyes.

While saying so, she even took the initiative to help Husband remove his robe.

Since no one could see, Gu Changge didn’t mind.

Before long, only Yuan Youbai was left standing there somewhat awkwardly, head lowered and face blushing.

Not daring to look at Husband.

“Youbai doesn’t need to refine…”

“Just drink the Spiritual Liquid directly…”

Wang Yue still thought she was too shy and stepped forward to help her, but Youbai hurriedly took a step back and whispered.

“So that’s how it is.”

It was only then that Wang Yue realized what was happening, seeing that her gaze kept darting toward what was right in front of him, and with a he-he, he wrapped his arms around her.

After letting go a moment later, the little one’s face turned even redder.

“First drink your fill; we can refine afterwards.”

“Stand there like a blockhead, and soon all you’ll get is bathwater,” Wang Yue tapped her on the head to remind her.

Yuan Youbai gave Lord Jun a careful glance and, upon seeing his nod, scampered over to the edge of the pool.

With a small but fierce inhalation, a stream of Spiritual Liquid flew out from the pool, continuously entering her stomach.

Despite her small size after her transformation, she drank at least one-third of the pool with just one gulp!

Feeling like she had maybe drunk a bit too much, Little Hanhan quickly closed her mouth, rubbing her stomach with a touch of embarrassment.

“I think… I drank a bit too much.”

She spoke in a low voice, somewhat guiltily, as the pool’s level visibly decreased.

“It’s fine; those who are at higher Realms should refine more anyway.”

No one naturally had any objections to this.

After gulping down so much Spiritual Liquid and yawning while rubbing her eyes, the little one didn’t speak again; she just lay down and fell asleep at the side.

With her Husband beside her, she slept soundly and with peace of mind.

The three looked at each other and chuckled.

Unlike Wang Yue, Liu Qingqing would instinctively raise a hand to shield herself, somewhat unable to let go.

Wasting no more time, the three of them directly sat down in the pool and began refining the Spiritual Liquid.

Seeing his Wives begin their refinement, Gu Changge simply gave up on actively absorbing and let the Twelfth Grade Golden Lotus slowly and naturally draw in the Spiritual Liquid.

He could still achieve the same progress through sharing, which was like refining the entire pool of Spiritual Liquid for himself.

But if he refined more, his Wives would get less.

It wasn’t worth it, but to avoid being too conspicuous, he had to sit in the pool as well.

Not practicing any Cultivation Technique, he simply began to ponder the Divine Skills he hadn’t managed to create during his Sudden Enlightenment.

Now with his Comprehension at three hundred, many questions were suddenly clear.

…

In the blink of an eye, another five days had passed.

The pool of Spiritual Liquid was nearly empty.

Having refined all this Spiritual Liquid, Wang Yue felt she was getting closer to a breakthrough to the Ruins Realm.

While following her Husband through the Demon Beast Forest during this period, they had discovered many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and he would let them directly consume suitable ones.

Liu Qingqing, with the help of these Spiritual Liquids, also experienced much growth in her Realm, but breaking through to the Mid-Stage of the Ruins Realm was still far away.

Throughout, Yuan Youbai would open her eyes a few times, glance at the three people sitting in the pool, and then go back to sleep reassured.

The one who improved the most, naturally, was Gu Changge!

Every day he would receive the fruits of his Daoist Couple’s labors, with his aura rapidly climbing as he claimed their results after the Spiritual Energy was depleted.

“Reach Profound Realm Late Stage… Achieved!”

His breakthrough was unhindered, without feeling the slightest bottleneck, truly a case of things falling into place.

When he opened his eyes again, his body was already emanating the aura of the Late Stage of the Reach Profound Realm.

Taking advantage of the time when his Wives had not finished their Cultivation, he had already properly dressed himself.

He checked his status panel:

[Host: Gu Changge]

[Root Bone: 355]

[Comprehension: 357]

[Cultivation Technique: Emperor Dragon Control Secret, Spirit Moon Technique, Mystic Sky Technique.]

[Realm: Reach Profound Realm·Late Stage (1/100)]

[Divine Skills: Slight…]

[Talent: Transcendence (Tao Bell), Protection (Golden Lotus), Hidden Breath, Dragon Flame]

[Attribute Points: 19500]

Because of the daily sharing, it was as though he had fully refined an entire pool of Spiritual Liquid, and his Realm had successfully broken through to the Late Stage of the Reach Profound Realm.

With Attribute Points now nearly reaching the twenty thousand mark, he could exchange for about a hundred second-tier Elixirs!

This trip was certainly not in vain!

And it was also an opportunity for him to test his Innate Divine Abilities.

After a while, Liu Qingqing was the first to wake up, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw her Husband handing her clothes to her.

Her pretty face blushed slightly; she hurriedly dressed herself, and because her Husband’s hands were a tad too fidgety, she slapped them away without mercy.

A moment later, Wang Yue also ended her Cultivation.

Seeing the clothes beside her, she pretended to be shy and said to her Husband, “Husband, don’t you want to try doing ‘it’ here…”

“Mm…” Gu Changge was somewhat tempted by her words.

But glancing at Qingqing on the side, and then at Yuan Youbai, who was sound asleep, he let his reason take the high ground.

He shook his head slightly, a regretful refusal.

“Ah… this opportunity is rare; once we go back, it’s gone,” Wang Yue sighed regretfully before leisurely dressing herself.

“Lord Jun, how come you’ve broken through to the Late Stage of the Reach Profound Realm?”

Once the three were all neatly dressed, Liu Qingqing tidied up her Husband’s clothing and couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

“Exactly!”

“When I married into the Gu Family a few months ago, people were still saying that Lord Jun couldn’t Cultivate.”

“And now, it won’t be long before he catches up to everyone else…”

“Lord Jun’s pace of breakthrough really is enviable and helpless.”

Wang Yue also looked at him, unable to resist making a sarcastic comment.
