275: Three wasteful things
After their cultivation Realm and physical Realm had advanced to a certain extent, Feng Zixian and Long Aotian temporarily stopped pursuing further Breakthroughs in these two aspects.
Powerful combat strength is not only reflected in cultivation Realm and physical Realm, but also in methods.
Namely:
Alchemy, Artifact Refining, Talisman Making, Inscriptions, Beast Taming, Spiritual Plants, ordinary Formations, Void Formations, Spell Martial Skills, and other Divine Abilities.
Long Aotian was not just a Cultivator who cultivated all twelve attribute Spiritual Roots; with the Nine Treasures Glazed Chaos World Tower, a time cheat, he also cultivated the time-consuming paths of Medicinal Pills, Artifact Refining, Talisman Making, Formations, and Spell Martial Skills.
As his cultivation broke through like crazy, the level of these methods did not receive a corresponding improvement.
In fact, Long Aotian also understood that the reason his cultivation Realm and physical Realm broke through so rapidly at the Immortal Rank and even Divine-Grade levels was merely due to his Revered Master's legacy.
If not for the Immortal Lord storage ring left by his Revered Master, Wu Fan, and his Revered Master's final gift of life, he would not have risen as swiftly as a shooting star across the sky.
When his Revered Master's legacy was exhausted, how should he conduct himself in the cruel Martial Arts World?
He had to consider this question.
This determined whether his future Dao of Martial Arts would be smooth and whether the achievements he attained would be high enough!
The answer he came up with was also very clear: more skills mean less pressure. He would learn as many auxiliary cultivation methods like Alchemy, Artifact Refining, Talisman Making, and Formations as possible, provided he had ample time to Cultivate.
This way, when he truly needed them, he wouldn't have to beg others or be constrained by them.
His idea received the full support and approval of Feng Zixian.
In her previous life in the Immortal Realm, she once sought a high-ranking Immortal Pill Emperor to refine a Medicinal Pill to save a great Protector of the Nine Heavens Immortal Palace. A lustful Immortal Pill Emperor, coveting her exquisite beauty, offered to refine it if she would stay and serve him for three years. She left in anger.
Another greedy Immortal Pill Emperor offered to refine it, but demanded three-tenths of the Nine Heavens Immortal Palace's wealth. She ultimately chose to accept this humiliating condition.
Being constrained by others in a certain Domain was an incredibly difficult thing. After that, the Nine Heavens Immortal Palace also began to focus on cultivating its Disciples' auxiliary cultivation methods such as Alchemy, Artifact Refining, Talisman Making, and Formations, slowly becoming less constrained by others, ultimately allowing the Nine Heavens Immortal Palace to become the overlord power of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.
Long Aotian's cultivation speed was so fast that he had ample time to learn these auxiliary cultivation techniques.
Of course, Feng Zixian couldn't bring herself to ask him to stop Cultivating and wait for her, his wife; he was no longer alone but a man with a family.
Sending him off to spend time learning auxiliary cultivation methods, while she seized the time to catch up in cultivation Realm, perfectly masked her embarrassment at being slower than him in cultivation speed.
With their cultivation Realms not differing much, they could Ascend together, like shadows following each other, right?!
This was similar to a Mortal World where a husband is sent to buy groceries and cook.
What, dare to complain about being tired?
Are you as tired as I am giving birth to several children?
If you have the guts, sleep alone...!
...With their cultivation Realms breaking through wildly, the two stopped Cultivating to adapt to the discomfort brought by the rapid surge of power. Living a shameless secluded life in the Inner World, they didn't find it boring at all; on the contrary, they cherished these rare, peaceful cultivation years.
It is worth mentioning that as his cultivation broke through to the Immortal King Realm, Long Aotian's Inner World also expanded wildly from a hundred li in the Earth Immortal Realm to one Immortal Li, or a hundred million li, becoming a vast Space World.
His Divine Sense strength also increased with the Breakthrough in his cultivation Realm, as the Dragon Soul Power in his Sea of Consciousness World was continuously refined and absorbed, reaching an unimaginable coverage area.
A terrifying Sea of Consciousness World covering a hundred billion Immortal Li, with terrifying Divine Sense strength, equivalent to the Divine Sense strength of an Early Stage God General Realm expert.
And the Nine Treasures Glazed Chaos World Tower, with his cultivation breaking through to the Immortal King Realm, the scale of its Sixth Layer Space World also expanded from ten Immortal Li to a vast space of ten million Immortal Li.
One Immortal Li is equal to one hundred million li, so ten million Immortal Li is ten trillion li. Such an unprecedentedly vast Space World was something Long Aotian had never dared to imagine before.
With a thought, Long Aotian brought Feng Zixian into the Sixth Layer Space World of the Nine Treasures Glazed Chaos World Tower.
This was the first time Long Aotian brought someone in, and Feng Zixian became the second person, besides Long Aotian, to understand the internal world of the Nine Treasures Glazed Chaos World Tower.
Long Aotian didn't hesitate for long about bringing Feng Zixian into the Nine Treasures Glazed Chaos World Tower, especially with the acceleration of time flow. Over the years, they had lived a shameless secluded life in the Inner World, and everything that should and shouldn't have happened between them had already occurred.
He had already lost count of how many times he had slept with the empress. She was the wife he recognized as his first, the wife who had given her whole heart to him; there was nothing to hide.
Upon entering the Nine Treasures Glazed Chaos World Tower, Feng Zixian was quite shocked by this treasure that could alter the flow of time, especially since its spatial scale was ten million times larger than that of the Inner World. At the same time, she was deeply moved that her husband had not concealed the existence of the Nine Treasures Glazed Chaos World Tower from her.
Re-entering the Sixth Layer Space World, Long Aotian directly took out the six Immortal Rank spiritual ore veins from the Immortal Lord storage ring and buried them under the Chaos Green Lotus and Chaos Dao Tree.
He hadn't expected that just as he finished burying the largest, a hundred and eighty thousand li long, Immortal Rank top-grade spiritual ore vein, the Chaos Beast Egg, which had been motionless like an unhatchable iron egg, suddenly began to frantically devour the energy from the Immortal Rank top-grade spiritual ore vein, as if a shark had smelled blood. This surprised Long Aotian.
Good heavens, so your tastes are so picky. Quasi-Immortal Rank top-grade spiritual ore veins aren't enough for you, but as soon as an Immortal Rank top-grade spiritual ore vein appears, you start gorging yourselves for me, your lord... Truly a bunch of wasteful fellows!
Watching the longest Immortal Rank top-grade spiritual ore vein being frantically sucked dry by the Chaos Green Lotus, Chaos Dao Tree, and Chaos Beast Egg in less than half a quarter of an hour, Long Aotian couldn't help but twitch his lips.
However, seeing the Chaos Green Lotus seed finally emerge from the ground and grow half a meter at an extremely fast rate, with over a dozen leaves; the Chaos Dao Tree growing from a tiny sprout the size of a finger to a meter tall, becoming lush and green; and that Chaos Beast Egg, which had been still, now radiating twelve colors of light, Long Aotian felt a pang of heartache but also great excitement.
Immediately, he unhesitatingly took out the remaining five Immortal Rank spiritual ore veins and let these three wasteful fellows devour them...
