Concubines Lead to Strength: The Path to Immortality Begins with Taking a Spouse-Chapter 79 - : Born with the Furnace Vessel Holy Body? (Seeking Follows and Monthly Votes)

Chapter 79: Chapter 79: Born with the Furnace Vessel Holy Body? (Seeking Follows and Monthly Votes)

Cultivation time swiftly passed by.

Before I knew it, another seven days had gone by.

“Would you like to claim yesterday’s Daoist couple’s cultivation results?”

After becoming adept at claiming rewards, Changge’s realm was not far from breaking through to the mid-stage of the Qi Sea Realm.

“Host: Changge”

“Root Bone: 198”

“Comprehension: 205”

“Realm: Qi Sea Realm – Early Stage (65/100)”

“Cultivation Technique: …”

“Divine Skills: …”

“Attribute Points: 320”

“Based on this pace, another five days should suffice for a breakthrough to the mid-stage of the Qi Sea Realm.”

Changge was quite satisfied with his current speed of advancement.

Although he’d been delayed somewhat each day by Wang Yue’s cultivation time, it seemed that Qingqing had been practicing for quite long sessions every day.

Moreover, he had exchanged for two more Root Bone Pills in these few days; now he was only a step away from breaking through the two hundred mark for his Root Bone!

Although he had also been working overtime daily to earn some Attribute Points, he still hadn’t spent them as quickly as they were earned.

“Come to think of it, it has already been seven or eight days,”

“My wife hasn’t sent any message at all…”

Taking out the Communication Jade Token from his Space Ring to check, and finding it empty, Changge couldn’t help but scratch his head.

Given the progress, she should have already arrived at the Heavenly Cold Sect by now.

She hadn’t even sent a message indicating she was safe.

But with two Elders of the Heavenly Gate Realm accompanying her, safety didn’t seem like a concern.

Moreover, the system synchronized the cultivation results daily, confirming that the wife was focused on her daily practices with no unforeseen incidents.

Accordingly, he sent a message through the Communication Jade Token with his thoughts: [Wife, have you arrived at the Heavenly Cold Sect?]

Whether Liu Qingqing just happened to finish her cultivation and check the Jade Talisman, or had been waiting, he couldn’t tell.

He had not yet put the talisman away when he already received a response, the talisman softly glowing.

Liu Qingqing’s message appeared on it:

[I returned to the Sect a few days ago, now about to reach Duanbei City for the trials.]

“The trial location is Duanbei City?”

“Weren’t there disturbances from the Demon Clan…”

Changge murmured as he looked at the message.

Wang Yue, who had been unabashedly watching them communicate, overheard and interjected, “You’re a bit behind on the news; the disturbances in Duanbei City have been quelled, and there seems to be a chance encounter emerging now.”

“And the last leg of the Heavenly Cold Sect’s Saintess competition has always been the hunt for Demon Beasts in Duanbei City.”

“Husband, don’t you know about this?”

Speaking of which, she also remembered she should report her own situation to the Imperial City to avoid any suspicion.

Just as unabashedly, she took out her own Communication Jade Token in front of him to report on the recent days; nothing of importance had occurred.

Changge couldn’t help but feel helpless; he really didn’t know about those things.

Over a month ago, when cultivation was still an unsolvable issue for him, how could he pay attention to the Saintess trial of the Heavenly Cold Sect? It had nothing to do with him!

“Will there be any danger?” Now, however, it was clearly related to him.

“Yo-yo-yo…”

“If I were to go to Duanbei City, would husband also be so concerned about me?” Wang Yue pouted.

However, she still explained: “Actually, the experience in Duanbei City isn’t too dangerous.”

“As long as you don’t overstep your abilities and explore within the limits of your strength, it should be alright.”

“Besides, the Heavenly Cold Sect is selecting a Saintess, so naturally, they will send Elders and Deacons to protect the way.”

“But from what I know, there’s a lot of pretense in this trial for Saintess; it tests not only the abilities of the Saintess herself but also the support of her family in the background.”

After listening to Wang Yue’s thorough explanation, Changge slightly furrowed his brow.

He felt that something wasn’t quite right.

If the aid of Sect Deacons and Elders was forbidden in selecting the Saintess, why wasn’t the help of the family also prohibited?

Given the Heavenly Cold Sect’s status in the Northern Domain, they shouldn’t have to consider whether a family was powerful or not.

But he didn’t think too much about it, assuming it was just the Heavenly Cold Sect’s strategy to curry favor with some families using the position of Saintess.

After pondering for a moment, he straightforwardly sent another message to Liu Qingqing: [In the competition for Saintess, should you need anything, you can seek assistance from the old master in Duanbei City.]

This time, he didn’t receive a reply; perhaps Liu Qingqing had already begun cultivating again.

“Now that the disturbances have not had much impact, maybe in a few days the old master will notify me and Third Uncle to go there.”

“What are your plans then? Will you stay with the Gu Family, or accompany me to Duanbei City?”

Gu Changge was getting dressed while casually asking.

“Of course, wherever you go, this princess will follow!”

“My task is to keep a close eye on you and report everything about you!”

“Husband, you’d better be careful.”

Wang Yue said with a giggly smile on her face.

Hearing her say this, Gu Changge just smiled indifferently.

The more she behaved like this, the more he felt assured.

Reporting to the Imperial Family openly was better than doing things behind his back without his knowledge.

On this matter, the two shared the same thought.

“It seems you’ve been thoroughly won over by your husband’s charm.”

After saying that, Gu Changge headed to the kitchen as usual to prepare some simple meals.

Not until he left did Wang Yue realize the double meaning of his words and blushed, spitting out a small “ptui!” in embarrassment.

Yet her body honestly began to dress, scurrying to the yard to wait to be fed.

It wasn’t that the food was particularly delicious, but rather she had some suspicions lately.

Aside from the first time she felt an improvement in her Root Bone, the same thing happened after meals during the past two days, proving it was no illusion!

The meals he made really did improve her Root Bone!

It wasn’t long before the meals were ready.

The two of them had their own thoughts, with Wang Yue tasting everything in small bites.

Until she took another sip of the meat soup, her eyes lit up slightly with the familiar fragrance of Elixirs.

Gu Changge ate his meal with a poker face, as if completely oblivious.

Before long, Wang Yue had finished her bowl of meat soup, and surely enough, that miraculous sensation appeared again.

This time she could clearly feel that it was no illusion.

Three improvements brought her nearly to the effect of the first time taking the Soul-Shaping Pill!

A system prompt also sounded in Gu Changge’s ear:

[“Daoist Couple Wang Yue has consumed a Root Bone Pill (incomplete), Root Bone +1. Share?”]

Without hesitation, he chose “Yes.”

Instantly, his Root Bone reached 199, and with the addition of that 1 point from his Daoist Couple’s panel, he was on the verge of crossing into the major threshold of 200 Root Bone!

“I hope breaking through the major threshold of 200 Root Bone brings some pleasant surprises,” Gu Changge secretly anticipated.

Just as he was considering whether to make another trip to the Back Mountain to avoid any trouble from an abnormal reaction to breaking the 200 Root Bone threshold,

Wang Yue was staring intensely at him and spoke up, “Why does this soup improve Root Bone, is it possibly cooked with Soul-Shaping Pills?”

“Am I that extravagant?” Gu Changge planned to reach the threshold of 200 first, as he could take a break afterwards; he was not in a rush.

He immediately shook his head in denial.

“But every time after I drink the soup, I feel my Root Bone has improved… it’s not every time, but it has been three times these past few days!”

Wang Yue looked into his eyes and said with certainty.

“Well, since you’ve found out, I won’t hide it from you anymore.”

Gu Changge’s words had just fallen, and Wang Yue was still a bit surprised; she didn’t expect him to admit it.

But before she could speak, Gu Changge changed the subject, “Actually, your husband is naturally born with the Furnace Vessel Holy Body, and it’s because of our nightly music that your Root Bone has improved.”

“…”

Wang Yue was speechless. Was he trying to fool a ghost?

Naturally born with the Furnace Vessel Holy Body and improvement in Root Bone after the wedding night?

But looking at Gu Changge’s serious expression, she started to waver, “Are you serious?”

“Believe it and it exists, doubt it and it doesn’t.”

Gu Changge said meaningfully without further explanation.

As he had said, if she chose to believe, he would continue to help her improve her Root Bone and even her Comprehension.

If she didn’t believe and insisted on knowing the truth, then she would have to wait until he deemed it safe to expose the Elixirs and improve her further.

After all, now that he was about to cross the 200 threshold, reaching the next major milestone of 300 was not something that would happen overnight.

Having said that, he mentioned he was going back to the Back Mountain and left the courtyard, leaving Wang Yue to clean up the bowls and dishes.

Reaching a Root Bone of 200 was not like Comprehension, which was imperceptible; causing trouble would be difficult to explain!

“Believe it and it exists… doubt it and it doesn’t?”

“Naturally born with the Furnace Vessel Holy Body… could this be the opportunity and fortuity Liu Qingqing mentioned?”

“Is it true… it feels unreliable, but… my Root Bone really improved.”

“But why is it that every time it’s only after drinking this meat soup that I see the effect?”

After he left, Wang Yue pondered deeply, truly undecided for the moment.
