Chapter 342: Chapter 188: Xiangxiang Advances to the True Martial Realm! The Effects of the Life-Prolonging Furnace! Traps in the Immortal Scripture Begin to Emerge! Xue Yueqing Sets Out_3
Fortunately, his aptitude and cultivation had improved, providing him with the capital to compete against his brothers and sisters. Although their talents were high, most were only one grade above him.
The two brothers were pondering over matters when, a quarter hour later, two core disciples of the Mincang Sect finally arrived, albeit belatedly.
“Jin, Chun, we’ve kept you waiting,”
The two disciples of the Mincang Sect hastily apologized, seemingly sincere, yet Han Yongchun and Han Yongjin saw through their disguises.
The siblings had ventured out for experience, using false identities, and did not expect to be so belittled by the core disciples of the Mincang Sect.
“No need for formalities.”
“Oh please, Brother Chun and I have just arrived as well.”
Although inwardly they had listed these two as mere cannon fodder, Han Yongjin and Han Yongchun remained exceedingly polite, showing no sign of taking offense.
The two core disciples of the Mincang Sect sneered inwardly—they were truly loose cultivators, so easily deceived. They would not dare to truly offend the disciples of a major sect.
They had planned from the beginning to use these early-stage Gangyuan Realm loose cultivators as cannon fodder; otherwise, they would never have teamed up with them.
“Since both of you have arrived, let’s set off. The Genius Battle starts in just one day,” suggested Han Yongchun.
Thereafter, the four set off towards the Canghai Sect.
…
Chengsheng Mountain, Han Mansion.
Han Li had come to Lu Tianxiang’s sleeping chamber.
This time, he was not there to dual cultivate with Lu Tianxiang. The Sect Hierarch, at last, was on the verge of a breakthrough to the True Martial Realm, and Han Li was there to protect and guide her.
“Xiang Xiang, are you ready?”
Gazing at the peerless beauty sitting cross-legged, Han Li approached her and asked softly.
He had many beautiful wives and concubines, but only Long Yue and Bai Keqing were True Martial Realm beauties. Once Lu Tianxiang made her breakthrough, there would be three of them.
Han Li had previously obtained a True Martial Pill from a treasure chest and had long since given it to Sect Hierarch Xiang Xiang. Her cultivation had reached the peak of the Myriad Phenomena Realm, but she had not yet made her breakthrough.
The martial intent she had condensed was only of a powerful level, stronger than average but not top-notch—something she herself did not know until Han Li told her.
Thus, Lu Tianxiang decided to refine her foundation during her ascension to the True Martial Realm, strengthening her base. If she could condense a Third Grade Martial True Pill on her own, then with the aid of the True Martial Pill, she might well condense a King Grade Martial True Pill.
After solidifying her foundation, she would be able to break through to higher realms. Lu Tianxiang’s aspirations had changed; she no longer aimed for just the True Martial or Divine Yuan Realms. She wanted to break through to the Tongxuan Realm.
She thought this was very possible—after all, she had an excellent husband.
Her husband was a Divine Yuan Realm Emperor Wu, already possessing Tongxuan Realm combat ability at just over two hundred years old. It would only be a matter of time before he ascended to the status of a Tongxuan Realm great being or a Saint of the Saint Abyss Realm.
With her husband’s support, she, along with Jiang Baiye, Yun Miaoyi, Gongsun Yue, Long Yue, Bai Keqing, and others, might well hope to break through to the Tongxuan Realm in the future.
Therefore, Lu Tianxiang wanted to build a solid foundation. After all, her husband had said that it was only the beginning to condense a King Grade True Elixir in the True Martial Realm. To break through the Divine Yuan Realm, one also needed to condense an Emperor Grade Martial Primordial Spirit so one could reach even higher realms.
“My husband, I am ready,” Lu Tianxiang nodded, her expression a bit tense.
“Xiang Xiang, relax, there’s no need to worry, just go ahead with the breakthrough,”
“Even if you don’t manage to condense a King Grade Martial True Pill, you will still have a chance to solidify your foundation and cultivate an Emperor Grade Martial Primordial Spirit when breaking through to the Divine Yuan Realm.”
Han Li embraced Sect Hierarch Xiang Xiang, biting her exquisitely beautiful red lips, calming her nerves.
“Mmm~”
Comforted by Han Li, Lu Tianxiang indeed became less tense.
After a brief period of regulating her breath, Lu Tianxiang began her journey of breakthrough.
Her martial intent surged out and gathered above her head, slowly condensing into a pill.
It began rather illusory, but as it was continuously refined by the unceasing flow of martial intent, the Martial True Pill gradually solidified, emanating a formidable aura.
A dozen breaths later, Lu Tianxiang’s forehead was covered with a great deal of sweat, but she persisted, wanting to do even better.
“Xiang Xiang, refine the True Martial Pill,” Han Li urged urgently.
Lu Tianxiang’s Martial True Pill had already reached Second Grade, but she still wanted to push it to the First Grade. Clearly, she had reached her limit.
Lu Tianxiang gritted her teeth but obeyed her husband’s command, swallowing the True Martial Pill in her mouth and began refining it with her powers.
As the True Martial Pill was assimilated, a powerful force entered her body, boosting her martial intent and causing the force refining the Martial True Pill to surge instantly.
Three breaths later, the Martial True Pill ascended to the First Grade.
Nine breaths later, the Martial True Pill neared the King Grade.
Han Li’s brow raised; he discovered that the True Martial Pill was somewhat lacking in strength and could not help Lu Tianxiang condense a King Grade True Pill.
Without hesitation, Han Li took out another True Martial Pill and had Lu Tianxiang refine it.
The True Martial Pill was a Second Grade Spirit Pill, equivalent to a Heaven Rank treasure. Han Li had opened quite a few from treasure chests, and aside from this one, he still had seven in reserve.
Surprise flickered in Lu Tianxiang’s eyes, but she did not refuse and obediently followed the command, refining the second True Martial Pill.
With the assistance of the new True Martial Pill, Lu Tianxiang successfully condensed a King Grade Martial True Pill.
Subsequently, with a single thought, her realm broke through, and after some time, she successfully advanced to the True Martial Realm, becoming a True Martial Realm Emperor Wu.
“My husband, thank you,”
After the breakthrough, Lu Tianxiang immediately threw herself into Han Li’s arms, her face filled with gratitude.
She knew her husband likely had more True Martial Pills, but Lu Tianxiang never considered asking for more. After all, her sisters also needed to break through to the True Martial Realm.
