Chapter 188

Gu Yue took up residence in the Li family’s estate. Li Su delivered a pill to her every day. This girl appeared to have developed a slight infatuation for Li Su. Whenever she saw him, she would lower her head and blush, displaying a shyness similar to Lin Daiyu when she saw her brother, Bao Yu.

“Husband, I didn’t have a chance to use the Demon Dust Pill this time, but I’ll use it upon my next return. Once I reach the Nascent Soul stage, I can assume higher positions within the Demon Realm Palace, and they’ll hold me in higher regard. Perhaps I might even have an opportunity to seize control of the Demon Realm Palace.” You Yue then shared her plan with Li Su. Her strategy was rather straightforward.

The Holy Command was only a few months away from being usable. After obtaining that strand of immortal energy, her goal was to progress towards the Nascent Soul stage. For her, achieving the Nascent Soul stage wasn’t overly challenging. She possessed a second-grade hidden spiritual root, and the difficulty level varied among individuals. While some found reaching the Foundation Establishment stage a distant dream, the Nascent Soul stage didn’t pose much of a challenge for You Yue.

For the sect leader, Shangguan Xue, it was also not a formidable task. With sufficient power accumulation and proper preparations, the success rate of this breakthrough was almost close to one hundred percent. Therefore, they were considered geniuses. With such a rare spiritual root, one in a billion among cultivators, if they weren’t formidable, it would be a waste of that spiritual root.

You Yue’s true challenge would always be the Thunder Tribulation, a life-and-death ordeal. Seeing her determination and plans, Li Su thought for a moment and handed over the two Purple Twilight Divine Thunderbolts he had and then gave her a substantial number of talismans and a few magical inscriptions.

“Husband, why so many?” You Yue looked at the heap of talismans Li Su gave her with astonishment. The study of talismans was also extensive and profound, and mastering it took a considerable amount of time. There were even fewer people who learned talismans compared to those who studied formations. Many cultivators who aspired to learn often struggled to find a place to do so. The talismans Li Su provided were all of a very high caliber. Li Su even crafted some of them after he reached the Nascent Soul stage. When activated, they posed a threat even to Nascent Soul cultivators in the early stages.

Using them, it would be challenging for You Yue to defeat a Nascent Soul cultivator unless the opponent acted recklessly and ventured into danger. Nevertheless, they could certainly deter an opponent from advancing. With the places that the Holy Command could access being limited to Nascent Soul cultivators, these talismans became quite formidable.

“Husband, you’re truly remarkable!” You Yue exclaimed. Learning that Li Su himself created these talismans, You Yue was once again shocked by her husband. At this point, she was further down the path of being an ardent admirer of Li Su.

A few months later, You Yue set out with the array of items Li Su had bestowed upon her. With these items in her possession, her chances of success in her endeavor were now considerably higher.

After arriving at a remote location, she activated the Sacred Command, and then she completely vanished. Several months passed, and a year went by.

On this day, the Gu Yue consumed the last pill. “Concentrate your mind and direct all the healing power to your heart,” Li Su’s voice echoed. Gu Yue followed his instructions naturally. After about an hour, Gu Yue suddenly spat out a mouthful of dark blood.

Li Su quickly examined the dark blood and found numerous tiny parasites. These parasites were so abundant that they seemed to have infested every part of her heart. However, they were all completely motionless, as Li Su had placed them in a “hypnotic” state with a gradual increase in pill dosage, using a slow and cautious approach.

These parasites were incredibly resilient, having merged with Gu Yue’s heart. Eliminating them would mean the death of Gu Yue’s heart. Furthermore, any mishap could cause these parasites to self-destruct, releasing various toxins into Gu Yue’s heart and leading to her death from a poisoned heart. Li Su, however, managed to resolve this issue using his unique method, making it look effortless, but it would be an impossible task for most. frёewebnoѵēl.com

After expelling the black blood, Gu Yue coughed up a mouthful of bright red blood. Her heart had inevitably suffered some damage, but she had finally freed herself from the grip of parasitic toxins. “It’s done. The parasitic toxins are gone. Here are some pills to expedite your heart’s recovery,” Li Su handed over some pills. “Thank you, Senior!” Gu Yue accepted them with gratitude.

Gu Yue’s recovery took quite some time, and during this process, Li Su didn’t disturb her. After another year had passed, You Yue finally returned. “How did it go?” Li Su inquired. “It’s in my hands now. Husband, take a look,” You Yue presented a crystal vial that appeared empty.

The immortal energy was contained within, but she could only use it once. Opening the bottle would cause it to escape, as You Yue explained. The immortal energy couldn’t be seen, but Li Su could faintly sense it through the crystal vial. Whether this “immortal energy” was truly related to the “immortal” realm or merely named as such, its ability to reduce the power of the Thunder Tribulation for demonic cultivators, even if only usable once, made it incredibly valuable.

Besides the harvest of the immortal energy, You Yue had gathered several other rewards this time. “Husband, these are all the gains from this journey, and they all belong to you,” You Yue said, handing Li Su a storage bag. Li Su opened it to find a significant amount of spiritual herbs, medicines, and various materials for alchemy, including high-level spiritual herbs and medicines.

Now, Li Su could craft elixirs useful for soul cultivation. While he might not need them, they would be valuable resources when Liu Xinshui eventually reached the Nascent Soul stage.

You Yue handed over some talismans to Li Su, and this time, she used quite a few of them. “Keep these for self-defense,” she suggested. “Do you think you’ll have a chance to break through to Nascent Soul in half a year?” Li Su inquired. You Yue nodded in agreement. With that, Li Su began making preparations.

Half a year passed quickly. During this time, Li Su recruited several female cultivators from the Water Moon Sect, and it seemed he might recruit them all. “You Yue, let’s begin,” Li Su’s voice echoed amidst several tall mountains. He had made extensive preparations for her, selecting this location surrounded by mountains and setting up a grand array. He also provided defensive treasures and a substantial supply of elixirs for You Yue.

With these arrangements, You Yue had a considerably high likelihood of successfully overcoming the Nascent Soul Tribulation. You Yue began her Nascent Soul breakthrough. The preparations took a while, but breaking through was typically brief. Li Su, for example, achieved it in two days using the power of God-building energy. You Yue, on the other hand, had to go through the process herself, requiring several months of hard work. Finally, on this day, a formidable aura emanated from her. She had succeeded!
