Concubines Lead to Strength: The Path to Immortality Begins with Taking a Spouse-Chapter 200 - 153: The Legacy Ends, Gu Changge Makes a Breakthrough on the Battlefield into the Ruins Realm!
Chapter 200: Chapter 153: The Legacy Ends, Gu Changge Makes a Breakthrough on the Battlefield into the Ruins Realm!
Several hundred miles outside the gates of the Heavenly Cold Sect.
Li Si, who had been meditating with closed eyes, suddenly opened them.
He glanced far into the distance at the powerful aura that was quickly fading away.
He had received the message from Duanbei City at the first opportunity.
Now was the time to make his move, as soon as the Sage Realm expert who had been overseeing the Heavenly Cold Sect departed!
Without any delay, he directly contacted the Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm expert from the Wu Family through the Communication Jade Token.
...
[The time has come, Daoist Fellow, return quickly.]
Then, he sent a message to Xu Qing who was staying in the Heavenly Cold Sect via the Communication Jade Token:
[Hurry and set up the challenge to draw them out!]
“This trip to Duanbei City means that Sage Realm expert won’t return in a short time,”
“But we also can’t afford to delay for too long.”
Li Si revealed a confident smile.
Everything was in his control.
“The only regret is that I didn’t manage to bring back Gu Kuang’s head!”
“Otherwise, the Saint Heir would have been very pleased.”
Thinking of the messages sent back by those three, Li Si shook his head.
Though it wasn’t perfect, it was enough.
Gu Kuang had exhausted his essence blood and his life was nearing its end. The Saint Heir didn’t necessarily need his head to vent his anger.
As long as he was dead, that would suffice!
By now, those three Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm experts had already returned to the Central State at the first opportunity, lest the Sage Realm Ancestor from the Heavenly Cold Sect find traces of them in Duanbei City and chase them down to kill them, resulting in a loss not worth the gain!
Even if the Saint Heir were undertaking these actions now, the Immortal Ascension Sect wouldn’t care in the slightest; as long as it could enhance the Saint Heir’s power, should any power from the Northern Domain dare to be presumptuous in the Central State, the Immortal Ascension Sect had its own experts to suppress them!
However, if a Ninth Grade Tributor were to be lost this time, matters would become much more complicated.
The Saint Heir might unavoidably need to explain to the Holy Land.
…
Inside the Heavenly Cold Sect.
Xu Qing, looking at the message in the Communication Jade Token, paced back and forth anxiously.
“Why has Liu Qingqing not finished receiving the inheritance yet?”
“According to what Yayun said, she should have completed it by now!”
Now that he had received the order to quickly set up the challenge, Xu Qing found himself in a difficult position.
He also understood that the targets of Senior Li Si and the Saint Heir were not Gu Changge, but Liu Qingqing.
Even if he set up the challenge now, crippling Gu Changge would be of no use!
Just as he was anxiously considering going to the Inheritance Tower to check again, he stepped out of the palace gate and noticed snowflakes beginning to flutter down in the sky of the Heavenly Cold Sect.
It was clearly just the beginning of autumn; the weather wasn’t even cool enough to be called comfortable; it was somewhat stuffy and hot.
Yet snowflakes were falling continuously.
“It seems the timing is just right.”
Xu Qing’s lips curled up into a smile. This was the anomaly caused by Liu Qingqing’s completion of the inheritance.
…
“Although I don’t know why a Coldness Law has suddenly emerged,”
“But… it is a good thing after all.”
“I didn’t expect not only to have changed my Cultivation Technique, but to have even unexpectedly made a breakthrough to the Mid-Stage of the Ruins Realm!”
“But in order to completely solve the deficiencies in my body, I still need some time for the Cultivation Technique to nurture.”
“It was supposed to take a year, but now I fear that half a month will suffice.”
Inside the Inheritance Tower, Liu Qingqing slowly opened her eyes, her pupils turning an icy blue, but as she gradually steadied the flow of her Cultivation Technique, they returned to normal.
The cold energy around her dissipated as well.
After briefly regulating her breath within the tower, she began to descend slowly from the top floor.
Walking barefoot on the ice, she felt no trace of coldness, and as she descended from the ninth floor, she unconsciously absorbed some of the Coldness Law Power left behind by the many former Saintesses within the Inheritance Tower.

She walked neither hurriedly nor slowly, rediscovering the insights and Divine Skills on each floor.
There were some new gains and understandings, and before she knew it, by the time she reached the entrance to the Inheritance Tower,
Her practice of the Divine Skill, the Heavenly Cold Finger, had also naturally reached a Great Success in mastery!
“I wonder if Husband has been anxious these days.”
Muttering to herself, Liu Qingqing couldn’t help but smile at the thought of her husband.
She stepped over the entrance to the Inheritance Tower, which was like a water mirror.
The moment she emerged from the Inheritance Tower, there were already two Elders and many Deacon Disciples waiting outside.
“We meet to offer our respect to the Saintess!”
Apart from the Elders, including Deacons and many disciples of the Heavenly Cold Sect — whether from the Outer Sect or the Inner Sect, even the Direct Disciples —
At this moment, they were all respectfully bowing to the cold figure.
Liu Qingqing’s gaze swept over the many figures, searching for the one she most wanted to see, but unfortunately, she didn’t find him.
However, there was a familiar figure among them, Zhu Qin.
As for Yayun, although she had sensed the end of the Saintess’s inheritance, she did not come to watch and pay her respects.
“No need for formalities.”
Liu Qingqing, not fond of words, managed to utter the phrase in response to the situation.
With a tap of her toes, she lightly leaped up, planning to go directly to the side palace where the Gu Family resided to find her husband and share the joyful news!
“Saintess, there is one matter… no, two matters.”
The Sixth Elder followed quietly, his expression not looking good.
Liu Qingqing looked towards the Sixth Elder, and they both headed towards the Gu Family’s side palace, as the Sixth Elder began to speak of the events that had transpired during these days.
“What?”
“The Supreme Elder has fallen in Duanbei City!?”
Upon hearing the first matter, Liu Qingqing’s soaring figure involuntarily staggered.
She looked at the Sixth Elder in utter shock.
Seeing his grave nod, she finally confirmed that she hadn’t heard wrong!
How could a Ninth Grade Great Power suddenly fall!?
Now, although she had become a Saintess, she was still only in the Mid-Stage of the Fifth-grade Ruins Realm, having just made the breakthrough to Mid-Stage, and she was not yet in a position to intervene in such matters!
