Immortal Martial Arts: Marry a Wife and Live a Long Life

Chapter 89: Qualification Enhancement

It had only been a year since the last capture of a cultivator, and his strength had not yet recovered to half. If he were to completely exhaust this bit of strength, he could still pull in that Myriad Manifestations Realm cultivator from outside.

If he had the time, he would wait a little longer to preserve this bit of strength, but time was of the essence.

It took him fifty to sixty thousand years to find a flaw in the Emperor Formation and barely transmit a bit of power. Now that the formation had been repaired by Zi Miaozhen, he couldn't transmit power anymore, and he didn't want to wait another fifty thousand years.

If he missed that Myriad Manifestations Realm cultivator from the outside, he didn't know when he would encounter another person. Bringing in an ordinary cultivator would be useless, and he couldn't cause trouble by throwing out another prescription.

Moreover, ordinary cultivators were too unreliable. Thinking of the first time he brought in that Sea Opening Realm junior cultivator, the Great Emperor felt a bit annoyed.

"Buzz~"

Just as Lutianxiang was about to leave, she sensed a terrifying suction force. Her expression brightened, and she didn't resist, but maintained a basic level of vigilance.

In the next instant, Lutianxiang appeared in the underground world.

Lutianxiang was somewhat cautious and did not release her spiritual sense. She only observed with her naked eyes, feeling quite cautious. She didn't know if there would be any old monsters in this secret realm.

Soon, she discovered the light curtain ahead. Although it was thousands of kilometers away, the nine colors circulated, illuminating the entire underground world.

"Gurgle~"

Lutianxiang couldn't help but swallow her saliva, feeling excited and worried.

Everything she saw at the moment was mostly consistent with the descriptions of her subordinates, except that the spiritual energy in the secret realm was very thin.

Could it be that a Vital Spirit Realm cultivator who had broken through seven realms had absorbed almost all the spiritual energy here?

Lutianxiang found it hard to believe. She took steps towards the nine-colored light curtain and only released her spiritual sense when she did, covering an area of a hundred meters around her, cautiously exploring.

Having cultivated all the way to the Myriad Manifestations Realm, she had entered several secret realms before and knew that secret realms were always risky. The greater the opportunity, the greater the risk. There were no free opportunities in the world.

The last time she explored a secret realm, she obtained this Heaven Grade lower-grade cultivation technique as her main cultivation method, but the process was perilous, and she still felt a bit scared when she thought about it. She had almost died inside.

The opportunities in this secret realm were even greater and more heaven-defying, accompanied by greater dangers. Lutianxiang couldn't afford to be careless. She didn't want to die here.

When she reached five hundred meters away from the nine-colored light curtain, Lutianxiang stopped in her tracks, her eyes filled with fear. She saw something that ordinary cultivators couldn't see.

The nine-colored light curtain was densely covered with Dao patterns, countless profound and intricate patterns interweaving, outlining fleeting scenes, each scene containing great terror.

"This is... the Emperor Formation?"

Lutianxiang's expression was somewhat dazed as she muttered to herself.

She had read a book in the previous secret realm that briefly described the Emperor Formation, stating that it possessed supreme power. A bit of its power could destroy the heavens and the earth, and a bit of its power could kill powerful beings.

In that instant, Lutianxiang had the impulse to turn around and run. If it really was the Emperor Formation, she absolutely dared not peek.

Regardless of whether there was a great figure suppressed inside or countless treasures hidden, she didn't dare to be interested. A bit of the Emperor Formation's power could kill her countless times.

"Huh, you actually know about the Emperor Formation?"

At this moment, a majestic and ancient voice sounded in Lutianxiang's ear, sounding surprised and astonished.

Whoosh!

In the instant the voice sounded, Lutianxiang's figure flashed and appeared thousands of meters away, looking at the nine-colored light curtain with extreme trepidation. She wanted to see through the curtain and see what was inside, but she couldn't see anything.

"Little one, don't be nervous."

A figure of a majestic silhouette appeared in the nine-colored light curtain, speaking in a gentle tone, like a kind old grandfather.

After recognizing the Emperor Formation, the Great Emperor changed his previous thoughts. He knew it would be difficult to deceive this woman and decided to make a deal with Lutianxiang.

Lutianxiang tightly bit her red lips, expressionless. She regretted her impulsive actions. The opportunity was too great and it blinded her, putting herself in a dangerous situation.

She knew clearly that the person in the Nine-Colored Light Curtain was not a benevolent person. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been suppressed in the Emperor Formation. The treatment he received meant that he was an ancient Great Emperor.

Seeing Lutianxiang's silence, the Great Emperor chuckled and said, "I know why you're here. I do have the opportunities and treasures you need. If you help me with a favor, I will accept you as my personal disciple, give you the Emperor's Scripture, Emperor's Weapon, and even grant you a great opportunity to become an Emperor. How about it?"

"Hehe!"

Lutianxiang sneered, unmoved. He was just making empty promises to her. She wouldn't fall for it.

Now she was no longer nervous. Lutianxiang realized that the suspected Great Emperor couldn't come out. He was sealed inside the Emperor Formation and couldn't exert any power. Otherwise, he wouldn't waste time talking to her.

"Well, let me express my sincerity first."

After some hesitation, Lutianxiang nodded. Since the Great Emperor couldn't come out, he couldn't threaten her life.

"Over twenty years ago, a Sea Opening Realm cultivator was captured by me. He took away a formula for the Transcendent Pill."

Lingjun City, Han Mansion.

Han Li was refining pills in the alchemy tower. The pill he was making was called the Vitality Boosting Pill, a seventh-grade pill that could accelerate the cultivation speed of Vital Spirit Realm cultivators.

This seventh-grade pill formula was obtained by Han Li without any effort. Previously, he killed a powerful cultivator from the Hehuan Sect, Yu Pingyu. There were many things in his spatial ring, and Han Li stored them without careful inspection.

It had been gathering dust in the spatial ring. Recently, when Han Li was cleaning it, he discovered a seventh-grade pill formula, which made him quite happy.

Although he didn't need the Vitality Boosting Pill, the Han Mansion did. It could be left for future Vital Spirit Realm cultivators in the Han Mansion or sold when the time was right. It was a significant source of spiritual stones.

After spending some time, Han Li easily refined the first batch of pills. There were ten pills, but only eight of them were of good quality.

He continued to refine nine more batches, with ten Vitality Boosting Pills in each batch, all of them of good quality.

Exhaling a breath, Han Li put away the pill furnace and left the alchemy tower.

He returned to the backyard and had just taken a sip of spiritual tea when Liu Yuexin walked over with a joyful expression on her face and said gently, "Husband, Liu Mei has given birth."

"That's great!"

Han Li hugged Liu Yuexin excitedly and walked quickly towards Liu Yue's small courtyard.

Previously, his aptitude was already very close to the fifth grade. Now, after more than five months and the birth of 28 descendants, only two of them had cultivation aptitude. One was mediocre, and the other had an eighth-grade aptitude, born from one of Han Li's concubines.

This made his aptitude reach 99.5% of the sixth grade, just a little bit away from advancing to the fifth grade. Finally, the time had come.

After arriving at the small courtyard, Han Li first took care of Liu Yue and then checked the child's aptitude. It was also an eighth-grade.

Han Li's face was always filled with a smile, which relieved Liu Yue, who had been watching him closely.

After naming the child and having a conversation with Liu Yue, Han Li left and returned to his sleeping quarters.

After adjusting his mood, Han Li opened the message panel and checked the system prompts.

"You have given birth to a descendant with an eighth-grade aptitude. You gain one year of cultivation, one year of lifespan, a Royal Grade top-tier technique, a Youth-Retaining Pill, and your cultivation aptitude has been enhanced."

"Your cultivation aptitude has advanced to the fifth grade."
