Chapter 1009: Wait Until Auntie Wakes Up Before Picking Up the Chopsticks!

A look of surprise appeared on Ye Chen's face. He had not expected the spiritual liquid fused from the twelve immortal roots' essences to actually trigger feedback. It seemed that after the essences were fused, it had become an entirely new treasure. And the item received in feedback was truly all-encompassing.

Healing injuries, extending lifespan, aiding enlightenment, and purification. It had essentially gathered all the advantages of the twelve immortal roots. Most importantly, it was inexhaustible and could restore itself automatically.

Ye Chen looked at the light-blue immortal pool with eyes full of satisfaction. Without the slightest hesitation, he sank his mind into his inner world. With a single thought, the Star Pool rose directly into the air and left the main floating peak.

Luo Bingling and Lu Jing were startled awake and looked up in astonishment. The Seven-Colored Nirvana Jade trembled anxiously, nearly jumping out. "My Star Pool!"

The Star Pool attracted the power of the heavenly stars. Caiyu benefited slightly from soaking in it. Although the benefit was small, Caiyu had grown used to it.

The next moment, however, it fell silent. Because a brand-new immortal pool instantly emerged, appearing exactly where the Star Pool had been. Light-blue pool water shimmered with dense immortal spiritual qi, profound and unparalleled. Just looking at it made Luo Bingling and Lu Jing feel their entire bodies relax, as if their lifespans had lengthened.

The two women immediately understood. Their husband and young master had obtained a better pool and no longer cared for the Star Pool.

Caiyu, who had been jumping in agitation moments ago, also stopped trembling. Soaking in the new light-blue pool water, she felt countless benefits flowing into the Seven-Colored Nirvana Jade itself. Her soul seemed to grow stronger. Even the body she was nurturing absorbed strands of incredibly profound aura through the stone, strengthening herself.

This new pool was far more useful than the Star Pool. Caiyu instantly forgot about the Star Pool and began enjoying the benefits brought by the new Myriad Transformations Immortal Pool.

As for the Star Pool itself, under Ye Chen's control, it was moved to the adjacent floating peak.

After handling everything, Ye Chen quietly guarded Senior An, who was still undergoing transformation.

An Yuyi slowly woke up as well. Upon learning that her aunt was about to awaken her immortal physique, her face filled with anticipation.

An Yuyi did not get many chances to see Ye Chen normally, and she was naturally still feeling hungry. But her aunt was about to obtain her rightful reward. As her niece, she naturally had to wait until her aunt was seated at the table before picking up her chopsticks.

Thus, the two of them waited on the side, watching An Miaoli, whose body had become multicolored and whose aura grew increasingly terrifying.

…

Meanwhile, in the outside world.

The news that Ye Chen had swept through the forbidden zone and slain the revived true immortal had already spread throughout the entire cultivation world.

Countless cultivators were deeply shocked. Even though it was a dead immortal, it was still an immortal. And the Heavenly Emperor's heir had simply shaken it to death?

Moreover, it was said that he had only thrown two punches. With those two punches, he had annihilated both the immortal corpse and the entire Land of Fallen Immortals. The Heavenly Emperor's heir had become unrivaled.

This thought appeared in everyone's mind. The Eight-Crowned King was probably no longer worth mentioning.

Everyone was curious whether the Eight-Crowned King would try to kill Ye Chen in advance, just like the Celestial Prince and the Exiled Immortal before them.

However, the Eight-Crowned King still had not appeared. He remained firmly seated in the Ninth Realm. This led to endless discussion. Some cultivators felt the Eight-Crowned King was too arrogant.

Others speculated that the Eight-Crowned King, having lived across a million years without constant slumber like the Celestial Prince, possessed unfathomable power.

In short, all cultivators believed that the final battle on this generation's Immortal Path would undoubtedly be between these two.

At the same time, signs of activity had appeared in the Ninth Realm. The heavenly secrets grew chaotic, the rules became disordered, and phenomena such as rivers flowing backward and volcanoes erupting emerged. These were omens that Immortal Qi was being nurtured and would soon appear.

According to the recorded patterns of past paths to immortality, Immortal Qi would officially emerge in three years. The entire cultivation world erupted in an uproar. There were sighs and feelings of desolation.

After all, everyone understood that this would be the final lifetime on the Immortal Path. Once Immortal Qi appeared and the last true immortal departed, the entire cultivation world would turn into a complete cage. There would never again be anyone who could become an immortal.

Cultivators would continue to cultivate, yet have no hope of achieving immortality. What a despairing future that would be…

Immortal Qi would emerge in three years. Yet the cultivators of the entire cultivation world fell into complicated emotions. After all, they could only watch as the final spot went to someone else. Becoming an immortal would turn into nothing more than a legend in the future. For cultivators, this was the greatest despair imaginable.

But soon, new news arrived that eased their despair, regret, and melancholy.

When the Heavenly Emperor's heir had slain the immortal will, he had taken a fancy to the revived Heavenly Human Race immortal corpse. He specially found a female cultivator's soul, used the origin of the immortal corpse to resurrect her body, and made the revived body identical to how it had looked in life.

Moreover, right after the female cultivator obtained her new body, the Heavenly Emperor's heir impatiently set up a formation, brought the revived woman inside, and dual-cultivated with her, savoring her thoroughly…

The moment the news spread, the entire cultivation world shook. Everyone knew the Heavenly Emperor's heir was extremely fond of women. But they had never imagined he would be so indiscriminate. He would not even let go of a revived immortal corpse. He had gone to great lengths to find a female cultivator's soul just to resurrect an identical copy.

This was truly outrageous. The news diluted the cultivators' worries and became the hottest topic of discussion. The Heavenly Emperor's heir was simply a living legend.

Throughout the history of the cultivation world, there had been proud geniuses who were lustful and obsessed with dual cultivation. But none had ever swept up nearly all the top female cultivators in the cultivation world and even refused to spare an immortal's corpse like the Heavenly Emperor's heir. It was truly unprecedented.

Many even began to wonder. Would the Heavenly Emperor's heir behave the same way after entering the immortal realm? If so, the female cultivators of the immortal realm were probably going to suffer.

…

Chapter 1010: The Terrifying Seven Extremes Heavenly Maiden!

Inside An Miaoli's cave abode on Holy Son Peak in the Heavenly Evolution Holy Land.

Seven-colored divine light flowed behind An Miaoli. It was completely different from Yan Ruyu's seven-colored divine light.

Yan Ruyu's was gentler and leaned toward defense, neutralizing all attacks in the world.

An Miaoli's seven-colored divine light was colder and sharper, with a far more terrifying killing intent. Its offensive power was unrivaled, as if it could destroy everything in existence.

The two were complete opposites.

Ye Chen examined the current Senior An and frowned slightly. He worried whether the Seven Extremes remnant soul had hidden anything. Now that Senior An's physique had revived, would the Seven Extremes return to cause trouble?

At that moment, a system notification sounded in Ye Chen's mind.

"Detected that the recipient An Miaoli's multiplier has changed…"

"An Miaoli: Eight thousand times elevated to thirty thousand times!"

Ye Chen was shocked when he saw the multiplier.

Thirty thousand times? Was this real?

Not long ago, he had still been worrying about having too few ten-thousand-times female cultivators and had been reluctant to act. Now they were breaking ten thousand one after another.

Senior An had directly reached thirty thousand. That meant the Seven Extremes Immortal Body alone provided a full twenty-two thousand times.

According to the remnant soul, this was not even the complete version. If it could reach great completion in the future, it would rise even higher.

Moreover, Senior An was only one of the seven avatars of the Seven Extremes Heavenly Maiden. If all seven avatars reached great completion and merged back together in the future, what kind of multiplier would the Seven Extremes Heavenly Maiden achieve? It might even break a million!

What kind of monstrous talent would a million-times multiplier require? No wonder the Seven Extremes Heavenly Maiden had played so boldly, splitting herself into seven parts without fear of failure. The returns were simply too enormous.

At the same time, An Miaoli finally opened her eyes. Seven colors flickered briefly within her pupils before fading away. Her beautiful eyes looked at Ye Chen as she spoke softly, just as always, "Thank you for protecting me, Fellow Daoist Ye. You must have been waiting anxiously!"

She then gave An Yuyi a gentle glance but said nothing.

From her voice alone, Ye Chen knew there were no hidden issues. Still, he carefully scanned her with his double pupils. Only after confirming everything was fine did he smile and shake his head. "Not anxious at all. Not even a little!"

Upon hearing this, the coldness on An Miaoli's face vanished. She shot Ye Chen a reproachful glance. Then, in a rare display, her voice carried a hint of coquettishness as she spoke, "Can't I be anxious?"

She had truly waited far too long!

The corners of Ye Chen's mouth curved upward. Senior An was usually so cold and aloof. This side of her was extremely rare and made him unable to resist teasing her.

With a sweep of his large hand, Ye Chen pulled Senior An into his arms.

An Miaoli gently closed her eyes and let him do as he pleased, gradually sinking into the moment. But soon, she furrowed her brows slightly and opened her clear eyes to look at Ye Chen.

She did not speak, but her gaze said everything.

Ye Chen shook his head, putting on an expression as if he was thinking for her sake. "Yuyi is still right beside us. Isn't it inappropriate for us to do this? Maybe we should wait until next time!"

An Yuyi, who had been happily watching her aunt from the side: ???

An Miaoli bit her teeth and pushed Ye Chen down with one hand.

"You didn't say it was inappropriate when you were dispelling your poison earlier. You didn't say it was inappropriate when you made me teach Yuyi how to dispel your poison…"

The usually cold and aloof Senior An had been provoked by Ye Chen into bringing up old accounts.

Without waiting for Ye Chen, she switched directly into self-service mode.

A moment later.

Ye Chen let out a long breath as a system notification sounded in his mind.

"Congratulations, host, for gaining a new Dao companion: An Miaoli!"

"An Miaoli: Thirty thousand times. Critical hit feedback and heart strike possible…"

Ye Chen smiled.

After waiting many years for this day, a smile also appeared on An Miaoli's usually cold face.

An Yuyi on the side smiled as well, happy for her aunt. In the past, she had always been the busy one while her aunt assisted from the side. Now the time for repayment had come.

An Yuyi became proactive, busying herself around the two of them and helping out. Everyone was exceptionally occupied.

…

In this manner, a full seven days passed before everything finally calmed down.

An Miaoli's face was flushed like a blooming flower, glowing with spring hues. Recalling what had happened earlier and how she and Yuyi had looked side by side, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed. But she quickly adjusted her mindset. She only wanted a bloodline.

Nothing more. She had a clear conscience.

She lowered her head and looked at her own belly with anticipation. She had carried so much. She wondered whether she would succeed in one go and get her wish. And if she did have a child, would it be a boy or a girl?

Lost in these thoughts, An Miaoli fell into deep contemplation.

An Yuyi looked at her aunt with some envy. Then she moved closer to Ye Chen. "Uncle, I also want…"

However, Ye Chen waved his hand without hesitation. "No, you don't."

Ye Chen had no interest in offspring. That was why he had always taken care of it. Otherwise, even though cultivators found it difficult to conceive, given the number of times and the number of female cultivators around him, he would have had children long ago.

This time with Senior An, he had naturally not taken any measures. After all, Senior An was too special and had suffered for far too long. He could not refuse her.

But for other women, the answer was simple: they should not even think about it. He had an infinite future ahead and hopes of achieving eternal life. Why would he need offspring to inherit anything?

As for Senior An, Ye Chen was not optimistic. After all, the stronger a cultivator was, the harder it became to conceive. Senior An might have to wait decades or even a century before her wish could be fulfilled…
