The effects of the Immortal Spiritual Root far surpassed even Ye Chen's imagination. Worthy of a supreme spiritual root that might appear only once every million years, even in the immortal realm.
Yet deep down, Ye Chen had harbored a sliver of anticipation. He wondered if the feedback might yield something beyond the Immortal Spiritual Root. Something prefixed with "Primordial"—that would leave everything else in the dust. But it seemed Lan Nuo's current multiplier of four thousand, despite her profound gratitude, hadn't crossed that threshold.
Still, Ye Chen was immensely satisfied. If nothing else, the Immortal Spiritual Root's guarantee of direct ascension to Immortal King alone filled him with exhilaration.
Immortal King—an existence that stood at the pinnacle even in the immortal realm. It was said they had truly attained eternal immortality, enduring alongside the world itself. Only at that realm could one claim genuine eternal life.
To cultivate straight to Immortal King without a single bottleneck—this was the ultimate dream of every cultivator. It was nothing less than a direct express ticket to immortality. Not to mention the other benefits. Faster cultivation speed, for one.
Ye Chen didn't know the full potency of a Sacred Spiritual Root, but it surely dwarfed a Heavenly Spiritual Root by countless magnitudes. The Immortal Spiritual Root surpassed even that. Its cultivation speed was unimaginable. But most crucially, the Immortal Spiritual Root could autonomously operate cultivation techniques—twenty-four hours a day, without interruption. This was outright absurd.
Cultivators couldn't remain in perpetual seclusion. They needed to explore secret realms, seek opportunities, refine pills and artifacts. With an Immortal Spiritual Root, none of that hindered progress. This wasn't merely a spiritual root—it was a blatant cheat!
Once he obtained it, Ye Chen's breakthrough pace would accelerate relentlessly. At this thought, a touch of wistfulness stirred in him. Who would have guessed that the Qi Refining stage would prove the slowest realm he ever traversed?
At the same time, the Immortal Spiritual Root amplified physique, flesh, divine abilities, and spell potency… His physique, body, divine abilities, and techniques were already outrageously powerful. With further amplification… Others might as well quit playing. From then on, whoever he looked at would simply die.
Finally, the most noteworthy aspect: innate immortal arts. The Immortal Spiritual Root came with its own immortal-grade divine abilities. Consider the Heavy Pupils or the Supreme Heart—abilities like Heavy Pupil Pure Land or Hand of the Heaven were already terrifying. Even for Ye Chen, they ranked as ultimate techniques. Few could survive a single strike. Then how overwhelmingly formidable must the immortal arts of an Immortal Spiritual Root be?
He dared not imagine. Truly dared not. The only drawback was the one-year gestation required for the spiritual root's ascension. But for him, that posed no issue at all. After leaving the Immortal Path, he could simply linger in the Lan family for a year, elevating his spiritual root to an immortal grade. His cultivation would conveniently reach the peak of the third heaven. On the return journey, he could drop by the Heavenly Desire Sect for another round of gifting and absorption. Then break through to the Fourth Heaven!
Perfect!
…
Satisfied, Ye Chen carefully stored the Nirvana Immortal Fetal Spring. He settled cross-legged beside Lan Nuo, waiting patiently.
In the blink of an eye, seven days passed.
Lan Nuo abruptly opened her eyes. Those clear, limpid pupils now held profound depth, as though containing an entire universe. An extraordinarily unique aura of sanctity surged behind her. Her presence exploded upward. Her cultivation rocketed like a runaway coaster. From third-heaven mid-stage, it soared straight to late-stage. In an astonishingly short span, she broke through again, reaching the peak of third heaven.
Lan Nuo had now attained perfection in the Third Heaven. She could enter seclusion at any moment and assail the Fourth Heaven. This breakthrough speed left even Ye Chen mildly astonished. The Sacred Spiritual Root was truly formidable. If a Sacred Spiritual Root was already this powerful... his Immortal Spiritual Root would surely soar to the heavens.
…
Having completed her transformation, Lan Nuo sensed the changes within her body. Joy flooded her eyes. The amplification from the Sacred Spiritual Root was simply staggering. Beyond catapulting her cultivation from mid-stage to peak, it had bestowed countless additional benefits. Her current combat strength—how could it be merely several times greater than before?
As he watched Lan Nuo sink into rapturous delight, a system prompt chimed in Ye Chen's mind.
"Recipient multiplier updating…"
"Lan Nuo: 10,000x!"
"Congratulations, Host, on unlocking a ten-thousand-times female cultivator…"
"When a ten-thousand-times cultivator triggers a top-notch critical hit and emotional fluctuation reaches a critical threshold, there is a chance to activate a heart-strike, amplifying reward value by another tenfold…"
This time, Ye Chen nearly let out an audible gasp of shock. He had known the Sacred Spiritual Root was powerful. But he hadn't expected it to be this powerful.
Ten thousand times!
Lan Nuo had directly reached ten thousand. Moreover, during top-notch critical hits, a heart-strike might trigger. Once activated, it would multiply the already top-notch critical reward by another ten.
This…
The bounty from a ten-thousand-times top-notch critical was already inconceivable. And on that foundation, another possible tenfold increase? He dared not imagine. Truly dared not.
In that moment, light gleamed in Ye Chen's eyes as he gazed at Lan Nuo. Truth be told, he had never anticipated Lan Nuo would be the first to reach ten thousand times.
Noticing his burning gaze, Lan Nuo's pretty face flushed crimson. Yet she boldly threw herself forward. The Sacred Spiritual Root far outstripped a heavenly one. Now, she truly possessed the strength to suppress prodigies across major realms. And all of it stemmed from the Sacred Spiritual Root. Its effects were so overwhelmingly potent—its rarity self-evident. Yet Ye Chen had unhesitatingly yielded it to her, revealing the depths of his regard.
"Master, I want…"
Her clear eyes were fixed on Ye Chen.
In this moment, Lan Nuo wished only to express her love with utmost sincerity. To let him feel it profoundly.
But Ye Chen silently shook his head.
No, you don't!
Though he suspected that taking a ten-thousand-times cultivator as a Dao companion might trigger further changes. Perhaps even after becoming companions, critical hits could still occur.
But with Lan Nuo as his sole ten-thousand-times treasure, Ye Chen refused to gamble. Once more such women surrounded him, testing would come later. Still, seeing her urgent desire to repay his kindness, he could not bear to reject her heartfelt intent. After all, even the purest romance would eventually proceed to what needed proceeding. It was time to advance their intimacy. Thus, Ye Chen leaned close to her ear and whispered softly.
At his words, Lan Nuo's face reddened further. She shot him a coquettish glare. She hadn't expected her master—already peerless in the art of showing off—to be equally adept in this domain. Yet she shyly lowered her head, retracting her adorable little canines… And followed his guidance obediently.
Naturally, Ye Chen could not merely receive without giving. For such a lovely girl as Lan Nuo, he had to ensure she experienced equal bliss.
Soon, Ye Chen was astonished. Lan Nuo was impossibly pure—like a crystal-clear spring, clean, transparent, carrying a faint sweetness. Truly, the flavor of first love. One could only say—this girl was simply too pristine…
Chapter 811: The Current Me Is Terrifyingly Strong!
Outside world.
News of the Nirvana Sacred Liquid's emergence swept through the entire cultivation world like a tornado. It alarmed nearly every major power. Ancient monstrous geniuses from both human and myriad races emerged one after another. Shadows of Great Emperors flickered into view. Rumors even spoke of Quasi-Immortals lurking in the dark.
The Nether God Holy Land brazenly carried out a divine coffin, from which radiated the unmistakable pressure unique to a Quasi-Immortal. The entire cultivation world stirred in that moment. After all, possessing a Sacred Spiritual Root equated to forging a true heaven-defying prodigy. One with immense certainty of ascension. No one wished to miss it.
Yet just as the masses gathered, new intelligence spread. The Nirvana Sacred Liquid had fallen into the Heavenly Emperor's heir's hands. He had toyed with everyone, ultimately handing it to Lan Nuo to refine. Lan Nuo had already consumed it under the gaze of all present.
When this news broke, sighs of disappointment echoed everywhere. The ancestors departed silently, one by one. The oppressive pressures weighing upon Immortal City vanished without a trace.
Everyone marveled in disbelief. None had foreseen such an outcome. They had prepared for Ye Chen to claim it himself. They had readied pleas to their ancestors to bend rules and slay him.
For the Heavenly Emperor's heir was already invincible enough—if he gained a Sacred Spiritual Root too, no one else stood a chance. He had to die. Yet he surrendered the opportunity for a Sacred Spiritual Root to Lan Nuo.
While lamenting Ye Chen's magnanimity, many speculated he understood he could not become too unrivaled. Otherwise, the entire cultivation world would no longer tolerate him. Thus, he yielded graciously.
Even after learning the truth, most refused to accept it. They lingered in Immortal City, awaiting Lan Nuo's exit from the Immortal Path. They wanted to witness with their own eyes whether she truly possessed a Sacred Spiritual Root. And whether it proved as invincible as legends claimed.
The most shocked, without doubt, were the Lan family. The widespread knowledge of a holy spirit's self-severance causing the liquid's emergence had caught them off guard. That the Heavenly Emperor's heir still obtained it shocked them further.
Outsiders claimed Lan Nuo slew the saints—they refused to believe it. Surely the heir had first suppressed the pair, then let Lan Nuo play with them for her amusement. But for him to gift the Nirvana Sacred Liquid to Lan Nuo… this truly exceeded every expectation in the Lan family.
The clan elders exchanged glances, faces blank with mutual astonishment. Recalling their earlier hesitation, their feigned generosity… Contrasted against the Heavenly Emperor's heir's open-handed grace. The difference was stark.
"A prodigy like the Heavenly Emperor's heir likely believes he can ascend even without a Sacred Spiritual Root—yet we feared his greed might breed enmity. How laughable."
"We were the true frogs at the bottom of the well."
"His actions render our petty scheming utterly ridiculous."
"The favor our Lan family owes him is immense!"
"Return at once and scour the clan treasury. Select every treasure beneficial to his future cultivation—send them all."
Shame filled the Lan family members. They resolved immediately to offer compensation. Amid the guilt, a touch of wonder stirred at their own Lan Nuo's fortune. Heavy Pupils were already terrifying beyond measure. Now augmented by a Sacred Spiritual Root. Their Lan Nuo truly seemed qualified to turn her back on all beings…
...
Within the Immortal Path.
Ye Chen wiped the corner of his mouth, gazing at Lan Nuo as she swallowed and revealed a smile. He gently wiped the corner of hers as well.
Lan Nuo's eyes held a hint of resentment. Ye Chen said nothing, only smiling softly.
Feeling the warmth in his smile, the resentful Lan Nuo immediately understood. Her master must be worried that her spiritual root had only just ascended and wasn't yet stable. He feared it might affect her potential, so he refused to fully claim her. Her master loved her so deeply. Though she felt a touch of emptiness, warmth filled her heart.
"Master, my cultivation speed has increased dramatically. Beyond that, all negative techniques no longer affect me—suppression, healing bans, slowing, confinement, and the like… my comprehension of the Heavenly Dao has grown far stronger.
"At the same time, my Sacred Spiritual Root is gestating sacred arts and divine abilities. It will likely take several years to complete. I feel the abilities it produces will surpass those of the Heavy Pupils—more powerful, more invincible… The Sacred Spiritual Root also influences my small world! My spell attributes have changed too, amplifying my Heavy Pupils… In short, I feel the current me is terrifyingly strong!"
Lan Nuo happily shared her transformations and the wonders of the Sacred Spiritual Root with Ye Chen. He listened and nodded. The Sacred Spiritual Root's enhancements, though inferior to the Immortal Spiritual Root, remained comprehensive. No wonder it had catapulted Lan Nuo from four thousand to ten thousand times. Her sensation was no illusion.
Ten thousand times—what did that mean? In any previous era's Immortal Path, Lan Nuo would absolutely qualify for the phrase "one glimpse empties the Dao." Even in this era, those with talent surpassing hers could be counted on one hand.
"Let's go! Plenty of people outside the Immortal Path are likely waiting to see you—let them witness it!"
Ye Chen was thoroughly pleased with this journey's harvest. He would soon obtain an Immortal Spiritual Root. Lan Nuo had gained a Sacred Spiritual Root, becoming his first ten-thousand-times female cultivator.
At the same time, he acquired an eight-thousand-times, still-growing holy spirit. Aside from the leeks growing wiser and harder to harvest, everything had been perfect.
At his words, anticipation colored Lan Nuo's pretty face. News of her obtaining a Sacred Spiritual Root had already spread worldwide. Countless awaited her emergence from the Immortal Path. Before, she might have felt a twinge of nerves. Now, only eager expectation.
At this thought, Lan Nuo—who had wanted to cling to Ye Chen a while longer, savoring the aftertaste—could no longer sit still, as though impatient. Ye Chen chuckled, took her hand, and strode from the small world toward the teleportation array.
…
At last, in Immortal City.
Under countless watchful eyes, the teleportation array slowly lit up. Two figures drifted gracefully from within. The Heavenly Emperor's heir—strikingly handsome, his aura terrifying, like a god incarnate.
Yet in this moment, no one spared him a glance. All attention was fixed on the arriving Lan Nuo. They wished to confirm whether she had truly refined the Nirvana Sacred Liquid. Her aura now differed vastly from when she entered. Her cultivation had soared straight to the peak of the third heaven. These changes proved much. Yet even with ninety percent certainty, everyone clung to a sliver of hope.
At the same time, certain prodigies wished to test whether a Sacred Spiritual Root truly proved as heaven-defying as legends claimed. Instantly, a figure shot from the crowd. All recognized him at once—a supreme human prodigy from a great sect.
