Despite the numerous surprises, Peak Master Dieyun quickly regained her composure and said, “It’s ready, Li Su.”
“Alright, here I go.”
“Mm!” Peak Master Dieyun suppressed her nervousness as Li Su’s spiritual essence approached and then merged with hers. It wasn’t a simple overlap but a genuine fusion. For this to work, Peak Master Dieyun needed to completely let go without resistance, which made her incredibly nervous. She couldn’t let her spiritual essence exhibit the slightest disturbance to avoid failure.
Under her careful control, Li Su’s spiritual essence eventually merged entirely with hers. At this moment, Li Su could uncover all the secrets of Peak Master Dieyun with a mere thought. However, he chose not to, easing some of her tension. Nevertheless, she experienced an unusual sensation in her heart.
At this moment, their spiritual essences were seamlessly intertwined and deeply connected. This couldn’t help but evoke a distinct sensation in her.
On the other side, Li Su remained highly concentrated. He began to perceive the challenge. Even with this method, sensing the obstacle facing Peak Master Dieyun was no simple task. It demanded Li Su’s utmost attention.
“Peak Master, attempt to break through,” he advised.
“Very well, I’ll use a bit of true energy, so be cautious,” she replied.
“Of course,” Li Su affirmed.
As per Li Su’s request, Peak Master Dieyun tried to surge ahead, enabling Li Su to understand the bottleneck better. The bottleneck felt like an invisible and intangible transparent barrier, though it was purely a perception and could vary greatly.Time passed gradually. One day turned into two, three, and before long, three months had passed. Peak Master Dieyun’s patience was considerable, but the peculiar sensations intensified. If her spiritual essence hadn’t been projected, she might have turned deeply embarrassed by now.
During these months, both Peak Master Dieyun and Li Su’s spiritual essences returned to their physical bodies periodically for rejuvenation before continuing the process. After three months, Peak Master Dieyun’s gaze towards Li Su had changed noticeably, the peculiar sensations having left their mark on her.
Another three months passed, and finally, Li Su’s spiritual essence retreated to his own body, and Peak Master Dieyun followed suit. Upon her spiritual essence’s return, a keen observer might have noticed a faint blush on her cheeks, which she quickly suppressed.
“It should be ready. Let’s go, Peak Master. We’ll search for the herbs,” Li Su suggested.
“Very well!”
The two of them proceeded to the Returning Origin Sect. After several days of searching on Medicine Peak, Li Su gathered an ample supply of herbs. It took him another half year, but he managed to create a pill.
“Peak Master, give it a try,” Li Su offered the pill to Peak Master Dieyun. She took it and immediately sensed its extraordinary quality. Her intuition suggested a strong possibility that this pill could help her overcome the bottleneck, filling her with excitement.
“Li Su, you’ve worked tirelessly this past year,” she said with gratitude. Peak Master Dieyun chose not to seclude herself immediately but instead looked at Li Su appreciatively. His dedicated efforts had left a deep impression on her.
Simultaneously, Li Su had gained newfound respect in her eyes. “This pill is of great value to me, Li Su. If you need anything, simply request it from Medicine Peak, and I’ll provide the required spirit stones,” Peak Master Dieyun assured. ꞦαƝôΒËŚ
Li Su responded, “Peak Master, there’s no rush for such matters. Let’s wait until you’ve overcome the bottleneck first.” He had no immediate demands.
With the pill in her possession, Peak Master Dieyun had a strong chance of quickly breaking through the bottleneck and advancing to the Unity Phase. Trading this favour for something Li Su could easily obtain elsewhere would be wasteful.
“By the way, Peak Master, I have some descendants at home with decent spiritual talents. I plan to send them to the Returning Origin Sect. If any of them have fifth-grade spirit roots, I’ll follow the Returning Origin Sect’s rules and have them initially placed in the affiliated sect. Is that feasible?” Li Su broached another topic, intending to send some of his descendants to the Returning Origin Sect.
The Flying Immortal Sect was effectively under Li Su’s control, but its foundation was weak. He couldn’t personally nurture every individual there, so he intended to send his descendants to the Returning Origin Sect. Individuals like Mengmeng would remain at the Water Moon Gate, while others would forge their paths, providing additional resources to those showing remarkable talent and dedication.
Moreover, with Li Su’s bloodline strengthening, the later-born descendants possessed increasingly potent bloodlines. Usually, bloodlines weaken from generation to generation, resulting in diminished strength in subsequent generations. However, rare atavistic cases could occur.
For example, Li Su’s tenth-generation descendants might start with weaker bloodlines than earlier generations, but atavism could bring them to a level similar to Li Su’s children. The strengthening of bloodlines offered various advantages to Li Su’s descendants. It endowed them with stronger physical constitutions from birth, leading to extended lifespans.
Body cultivators, who focused on enhancing their physical bodies, generally enjoyed longer lifespans than cultivators of similar realms, except for the extreme cases. Li Su established a dedicated body cultivation hall within the Flying Immortal Sect for some of his descendants with poor spiritual roots, enabling them to concentrate on body cultivation. While the Canglan Realm lacked many body cultivators and specialized sects, Li Su had devised a secret technique tailored for his descendants.
At the moment, Li Su’s bloodline wasn’t remarkably potent, but his descendants would have more opportunities as it strengthened. Of course, if the bloodline became excessively strong, Li Su himself might face challenges in giving birth to descendants. There was no perfect solution, but diligence, cultivation, and quantity could compensate. Additionally, Li Su was different from others who had to cultivate themselves.
Peak Master Dieyun agreed to Li Su’s proposal regarding sending his descendants with fifth-grade spirit roots to the main sect for cultivation, with a probationary period and her assurance of their well-being.
With this matter resolved, Peak Master Dieyun entered seclusion to utilize Li Su’s pill and break through the bottleneck. Meanwhile, Li Su returned to the Li Residence, where Tiantian was last months pregnant. Unusual occurrences had already begun, such as transforming the grass near Tiantian into spiritual herbs and an occasional rosy glow above her head.
“Husband, our child’s spiritual roots must be excellent,” Tiantian remarked, leaning against Li Su’s chest.
Li Su gently stroked her hair, sharing the same anticipation. He had high expectations for their child, so he spent more time with Tiantian in the following months. After half a year, their daughter was born.
“Master, it’s a girl!” the midwife joyfully announced.
Li Su held the baby girl, who resembled her mother and approached Tiantian. She smiled with happiness at the sight of their daughter.
“Husband, please test our daughter’s spiritual roots,” Tiantian requested.
Li Su measured their daughter’s spiritual roots and soon discovered that she possessed a first-grade spiritual root. This momentous occasion marked the first time Li Su had a descendant with a first-grade spiritual root.
Tiantian couldn’t contain her joy. “This is wonderful, husband!” she exclaimed, overwhelmed with happiness.
