Patriarch is Taking Concubines Again!

Chapter 203



Chapter 203

After reaching the mid-stage of Nascent Soul, each layer of advancement became increasingly difficult. With a fourth-layer spiritual root, the amount of cultivation Li Su needed to advance beyond the fifth layer of Nascent Soul would significantly decrease, accelerating his growth. In this world, Nascent Soul cultivation was indeed potent, but it still fell short of being invincible.

Li Su’s ultimate goal was to become an immortal or a deity. Naturally, he wished that he could progress a little faster. Not being in a hurry didn’t mean Li Su didn’t wish to advance more rapidly. Impatience could sometimes provide an opportunity for inner demons. Li Su hadn’t encountered inner demons because he had been progressing steadily and had maintained a stable mindset. By taking one step at a time, just like a seamless egg, he had left no room for inner demons to surface.

If he were to become impatient and lose his mental stability, he could indeed encounter inner demons. With this latest advancement, Li Su had become the most formidable figure in the entire Northern Territory. He had far surpassed Azure Sea.

Indeed, given the immense strength of Li Su’s Purple-Gold Nascent Soul, when Li Su had just attained the Nascent Soul stage, Azure Sea might not have stood a chance in combat.

Azure Sea had lived for thousands of years, so he likely possessed various techniques and skills. While Li Su had acquired various methods and skills in a relatively short time, his expertise in magic and spells remained a weak point. Currently, Li Su’s combat prowess relied on his potent magical artifacts and his Nascent Soul, which outclassed those of the same level.

Regarding combat techniques and experience, Li Su might lag behind some of the Nascent Soul cultivators who had lived for thousands of years. However, that didn’t necessarily mean he couldn’t defeat them. Li Su had several tricks up his sleeve.

On this particular day, he once again flew across the Northern Territory, gathering the Earth’s essence he had arranged in special formations on various mountains. Li Su had gathered this Earth’s essence through formations and used it to create a unique talisman known as the “Gold Mountain Talisman.”

The more Earth’s essence it contained, the more potent it became. Presently, the Gold Mountain Talisman, when activated, could transform into an incredibly massive mountain. It might not be the best choice for striking opponents because Nascent Soul cultivators were incredibly fast. The Gold Mountain Talisman was highly effective against containment or defensive methods.

When deployed, it was similar to crushing opponents with numerous rounded mountains. It wasn’t just a straightforward physical attack. It could shatter even robust defenses. Of course, each use of the talisman required a significant amount of Earth’s essence. The number of times the talisman could be used depended on the opponent’s strength in battle.

Li Su had crafted numerous other runes and talismans over the years. His exceptional descendants possessed various escape runes. For example, a divine escape talisman allowed them to return to the Li Family at speeds comparable to a communication stone. Li Su developed the divine escape talisman after studying communication stones.

Intercepting such talismans was incredibly challenging. Given Li Su’s current power and reputation in the Northern Territory, who would dare to harm his descendants casually? If anyone did dare to attack Li Su’s descendants, they would undoubtedly have formidable strength. Among the other runes, the ones used by Li Su’s mortal descendants didn’t have much power when activated. They weren’t as effective as the divine escape talisman, primarily meant for self-preservation.

After collecting this wave of Earth’s essence, Li Su returned to the Water Moon Sect. He spent several months there before the conch shell suddenly resonated. Li Su picked up the conch, listened to the message, and hurriedly set out. The reason was quite simple. The holy city of the Northern Sea was under siege by many sea beasts. There was a massive sea beast uprising. The sea clan controlled some of the sea beasts in the Northern Sea, but many sea beasts attacked anyone.

There were numerous rare treasures in the ocean, and even the Northern Sea clan couldn’t collect all of them. Some sea beasts, through a combination of chance and circumstance, managed to consume these rare treasures and grow stronger. Among these sea beasts, some displayed remarkable intelligence. They were naturally aggressive, and this intelligence allowed them to become better hunters and grow stronger.

In reality, these sea beasts were the original inhabitants of the ocean. It was just that the sea clan had become dominant and claimed control over the seas. The challenge of this sea beast encounter was that some sea beasts emerged from forbidden areas for the sea tribe. Among them, there were even fifth-layer sea beasts, which were at the Divine Transformation level, making them exceedingly rare in the North Sea. It wasn’t easy for sea beasts to reach the Divine Transformation level.

Combined with the sheer number of sea beasts, the pressure on the Sea Tribe’s holy city had become exceptionally high. The Sea Tribe’s holy city was typically guarded by only one Sea Tribe member at the Divine Transformation level. Other Sea Tribe members had received the news and were on their way there, but the city might have been breached before they arrived, mainly due to the overwhelming number of sea beasts. There were just too many of them. Bai Ling had already set out with the Mermaid, and it would take her at least half a month to reach the holy city.

Bai Ling considered Li Su’s exceptionally fast flying boat and turned to him for help. The flying boat’s speed might not be sufficient, Li Su contemplated. He decided not to use the flying boat and instead directly employed a high-level divine teleportation talisman, even more potent than the one he had provided to later generations. Crafting such a divine teleportation talisman was no small feat, and it consumed a significant amount of true essence. Li Su had only given a few to himself and a few of his handmaidens, like Liu Xinshui, who needed to travel outside occasionally.

As he activated the divine teleportation talisman, Li Su’s entire being transformed into a streak of light, rapidly shooting northward. This time, his speed was exceptional. In no time, the North Sea was visible in the distance.
