Patriarch is Taking Concubines Again!-Chapter 148

Li Sus intention to take Liu Xinyue as his concubine had caused quite a stir within the Falling Cloud Sect and among other immortal sects. Without exception, members of each sect were shocked by the news. For over a decade, Li Su had been known for taking multiple concubines, and people in these immortal sects had grown accustomed to his habit. He had, after all, welcomed so many concubines that he had exhausted the pool of talented female cultivators among wandering practitioners. Over these ten years, the entire Northern Realm had become indifferent to Li Sus repeated actions.

However, this time, Li Su managed to win over Liu Xinyue, and he again took in a concubine. Liu Xinyue, who was at the Fourth Layer of the Nascent Soul stage, willingly became Li Sus concubine. It was no wonder the members of the various immortal sects were astonished.

Fellow Taoist Li is quite efficient Ill need to visit this time, said the Sect Leader of the Danxin Sect after receiving the news with a surprised expression. He promptly ordered preparations for congratulatory gifts.

This time, Li Su took in a concubine at the mid-Nascent Soul stage, Liu Xinyue, the younger sister of the Water Moon Sects Sect Leader. Regardless of their personal feelings, they had to make the trip.

Some Nascent Soul cultivators, upon hearing this news, felt a sense of sadness. Both Liu Xinshui and Liu Xinyue were considered stars in the Northern Realm and admired by countless cultivators. Even Nascent Soul cultivators held them in high regard. But Liu Xinshui and Liu Xinyue were strong-willed individuals who had never shown interest in anyone. The favorable opinions held by Nascent Soul cultivators would remain just that. Seeing that Liu Xinyue was marrying Li Su was truly disheartening.

However, despite their heartache, these Nascent Soul cultivators wouldnt intervene. Cutting off emotional ties and focusing solely on the Dao, one of the Nascent Soul cultivators murmured and decided.

Li Sus proposal to take Liu Xinyue as a concubine surprised Bi Luo within the Bixia Sect. She had recently emerged from seclusion after a lengthy period. The results of her seclusion had been fruitful, as she had reached the Golden Core stage, just one step away from Nascent Soul. With the resources of the Bixia Sect and her aptitude, becoming a Nascent Soul cultivator was feasible. She only needed to adjust her condition, thoroughly prepare, and then attempt the breakthrough.

She hadnt anticipated hearing this news right after exiting seclusion, which greatly surprised her. Is Liu Xinyue also becoming one of Li Sus concubines? Bi Luo couldnt quite comprehend it, but considering Liu Xinyues personality, she began to understand the situation.

Perhaps, in her view, the distinction between wife and concubine isnt significant, Bi Luo speculated.

Different cultivators had various personalities. Some were carefree and could lead a relaxed life despite their average talent. On the other hand, some cultivators would rather face death than seek a Dao companion. Given Liu Xinyues character, she might not be concerned about worldly titles.

After some contemplation, Bi Luo attended Li Su and Liu Xinyues wedding. Have you all heard the news? The Moon Fairy of the Water Moon Sect is marrying Senior Li Su!

What? Li Su is marrying the Moon Fairy, too?

I heard about it as well. Senior Li Su is truly remarkable. She is the Moon Fairy, after all!

This news astonished the major immortal sects and quickly spread to the various immortal cities in the Northern Realm, surprising every cultivator who heard it.

Liu Xinshui and Liu Xinyue, known as the Water Immortal and the Moon Immortal, respectively, in the Northern Realm, earned these titles when they were below the Nascent Soul stage. As they both reached Nascent Soul, becoming the pinnacle powerhouses of the Northern Realm, they were referred to as seniors less frequently.

I heard the Moon Immortal will become Senior Lis concubine!

Really? But shes at the mid-Nascent Soul stage!

Senior Li has invited cultivators from all over to attend his wedding. We have nothing better to do. Well go and take a look.

Discussions among Northern Realm cultivators in various immortal cities surged. There werent as many cultivators in the immortal cities now as there were during the Ascension Conference a dozen years ago, but there were still quite a few. As these cultivators spread the news, it quickly circulated throughout the Northern Realm.

Soon, many cultivators set out, preparing to attend this wedding. This wedding could be considered the most grand event in the Northern Realm in nearly a thousand years. The union of two Nascent Soul cultivators was a rare occurrence in the Northern Realm, which explained why the leaders of various immortal sects were personally involved. The entire Northern Realm buzzed with excitement.

Meanwhile, in the Li Residence, Li Su whispered, Ive reached the Eighth Layer of Nascent Soul. While the Northern Realm was abuzz with the news of Li Su marrying Liu Xinyue, Li Sus strength again improved. After returning from the Northern Sea, preparations for the wedding were still underway in the Li Residence.

During this time, Li Sus cultivation had advanced from the Seventh Layer of Nascent Soul to the Eighth Layer. Not only that, but Li Sus spiritual roots finally reached the Fifth Grade. It was precisely because of this achievement in his spiritual roots, combined with three thousand years of cultivation, that Li Sus strength had ultimately reached the Eighth Layer of Nascent Soul.

Otherwise, it would be challenging to advance further with a sixth-grade spiritual root and still at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage after three thousand years of cultivation.

This cultivation could not be left unused within the system. It would automatically be claimed if he didnt claim it for a year. So, it was impossible if Li Su wanted to exploit a loophole, such as delaying the acceptance of a spiritual root upgrade to the fourth grade. Besides, there was no need to exploit such a loophole. It was much more challenging to go from fifth grade to fourth grade than from sixth grade to fifth grade, and it would take even longer.

This time, Li Su had given birth to over a hundred spiritual root descendants, including many with spiritual roots above the sixth grade. This allowed the spiritual root to advance from the sixth to the fifth grade. If you were to go from fifth to fourth grade, you would need even more spiritual root descendants.

A fifth-grade spiritual root was considered respectable and would secure entry into a reputable immortal sect. The seven major immortal sects in the Northern Territory readily accept cultivators with fifth-grade spiritual roots. In the past, at the Hopeful Immortal Corner, achieving the Golden Core stage with a fifth-grade spiritual root posed no problem while becoming a Nascent Soul stage cultivator depended on ones destiny.

In the Northern Territory, attaining the Golden Core stage with a fifth-grade spiritual root was similarly not a challenge, and the hope of reaching the Nascent Soul stage was much greater than at the Hopeful Immortal Corner. One could further classify spiritual roots above the sixth grade into lower sixth grade, middle sixth grade, and upper sixth grade. However, not many make such fine distinctions. When everyone had sixth-grade spiritual roots, the differences werent particularly significant, but there might be some variation in cultivation speed and breaking through bottlenecks.

Even for a top-tier Nascent Soul cultivator like Li Su, having a fifth-grade spiritual root would still accelerate his progress towards the Nascent Soul stage. He was in a good mood and prepared to welcome the wedding guests.

The Li Family residence was bustling with activity as many guests arrived from all directions. This gathering of guests was unprecedented in scale, even catching the attention of the common people in the city.
