Chapter 696 - Ascending to the Devil Immortal Realm
Chapter 696: Chapter 696 Ascending to the Devil Immortal Realm
Another ten thousand years passed, and Yu Wei finally emerged from seclusion.
Her seclusion this time lasted for tens of thousands of years.
Upon exiting seclusion, Qin Changqing discovered that her power had completely reversed.
Not only that.
Although this event had delayed her for such a long time, it had also turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
“Yu Wei, are you going to make a breakthrough to Quasi-Saint?”
This time, Yu Wei was preparing to make a breakthrough to Quasi-Saint.
“Yes, Qing.”
Yu Wei’s confidence was indeed full.
Her swift recovery was also thanks to the boost from the system.
At the same time, the system’s boost also gave her more confidence to strive for Quasi-Saint status.
From Semi-Saint to Quasi-Saint was just a crucial step away.
This step would not cause too much commotion either.
Only achieving Saint status would create an earth-shattering disturbance.
Like the Flowers Celestial Master, she had become a Quasi-Saint who knows how many years ago, and yet no one was aware.
This step was one Qin Changqing could not assist her with.
Yu Wei went up above the Divine Continent Heaven.
Decades later, her body began to emanate Dao rhythms.
The commotion was slight, only perceived by Qin Changqing who was close by.
She had successfully become a Quasi-Saint.
“Boom~”
In the Outer Heaven Realm, a battle was underway.
One side of the battle was Qin Changqing, and the other was Yu Wei.
At this moment, both had ventured deep into the Outer Heaven Realm, and after Qin Changqing had laid down a Zhoutian Great Array to conceal any disturbances, they began to spar with each other.
The battle lasted for quite some time.
“Qing, how are you so powerful!”
Yu Wei stopped, coming up to Qin Changqing’s side, looking at him with some surprise.
Even though she had become a Quasi-Saint, she had been unable to get the better of Qin Changqing after fighting for so long.
Moreover, she hadn’t even gained the upper hand.
She was practically stepping into the Saint Realm.
That is to say, although Qin Changqing was a Semi-Saint, his combat power was already comparable to a Quasi-Saint.
Qin Changqing was just too powerful!
Even though Yu Wei had already given herself to Qin Changqing and was sincerely devoted to him, she had spent most of her time in seclusion cultivating in the Divine Continent Heaven over these years.
Her understanding of Qin Changqing, however, was not very substantial.
Now it seemed that her man… appeared to be becoming more and more mysterious and formidable. Then,
She came to know another of Qin Changqing’s impressive aspects.
After becoming a Quasi-Saint… after she and Qin Changqing had had a great battle in the Outer Heaven Realm and without a chance to rest,
She was taken by Qin Changqing… for many years.
Following Yu Wei’s advancement to Quasi-Saint, Qin Changqing found some additional joy.
Even though she was still cultivating, Qin Changqing was able to savor her delights every so often.
Yu Wei would also frequently visit Bai Huatian.
The Flowers Celestial Master, upon learning that she had become a Quasi-Saint, was quite pleased.
Though Qin Changqing had become a Semi-Saint, he had no intention of publicizing it.
It was just a Semi-Saint after all.
“Qing, I didn’t expect you to become a Semi-Saint so quickly!”
The Flowers Celestial Master looked at Qin Changqing, her gaze filled with surprise.
In just tens of thousands of years, Qin Changqing had become a Semi-Saint.
She was becoming increasingly curious about Qin Changqing.
At the same time, she felt increasingly helpless.
Because the number of Flower Fairies given away in marriage to Qin Changqing in Bai Huatian was growing more and more.
Over the years, there have been over a hundred Flower Fairies married to Qin Changqing.
After so many Flower Fairies had married Qin Changqing, other Flower Fairies who had taken a liking to him gathered the courage to do the same in greater numbers.
Time kept slipping away.
One day, within Bai Huatian, another Great Luo was born.
This Great Luo had been in the Golden Immortal Realm for over two million years.
Her true form was Lavender, and her name was Zi Lu.
The reason her name also contained the word ‘purple’ was that the petals of her true form were purple.
The Flowers Celestial Master watched as Bai Huatian grew stronger and more prosperous, and she was quite pleased.
However, another matter came about that left her feeling helpless.
After Zi Lu advanced to Great Luo, she too wished to marry Qin Changqing.
Thus, another wedding ceremony took place.
“Has Immortal Leader Qin Changqing married another Great Luo from Bai Huatian?”
“At this rate, aren’t all the Great Luos from Bai Huatian going to be married off to Immortal Leader Qin Changqing?”
The numerous immortals in the Immortal World were all amazed.
After marrying Zi Lu, Qin Changqing’s life became even more comfortable.
“Qing.”
And on this day, the Flowers Celestial Master sought out Qin Changqing.
There’s something I’d like your help with,
the Flowers Celestial Master said.
“Please speak, Celestial Master.”
Qin Changqing said.
The Flowers Celestial Master said, “Before Zi Lu, there were only two Great Luos in Bai Huatian. One was Zi Lu, and the other is Bai Wei. Bai Wei is very close to becoming a Semi-Saint, but all these years have passed, and she still hasn’t taken the final step…”
As she spoke, Qin Changqing understood her meaning.
Seeing how quickly Qin Changqing was approaching Semi-Saint status and how profound his study of the Dao was, the Flowers Celestial Master wanted him to help Bai Wei.
Qin Changqing agreed.
A few days later, Qin Changqing met with Bai Wei.
Bai Wei appeared very innocent, her strength long since reaching the peak of Great Luo, yet she had been unable to breakthrough to Semi-Saint.
That crucial step, she was never able to take.
The gates to sainthood also remained firmly closed to her.
Bai Wei was the successor chosen by the Flowers Celestial Master.
Now, after reaching Quasi-Saint, one reason she had not gone into extended seclusion was that she needed to oversee Bai Huatian.
Bai Huatian would be left without a successor, and she could not rest easy.
A Quasi-Saint who aspires to become a Saint must go through a long process of merging their being with the way of heaven, and one process of Dao Integration could easily span hundreds of thousands of years.
Even for Qin Changqing, after reaching Quasi-Saint and desiring to become a Saint, with the aid of the System’s Dao-comprehension Energy, he still went through this process.
However, the time was significantly shortened, and there was no risk involved.
Therefore, when Qin Changqing went to seize the Demon-miasma Heavens in the Devil Immortal Realm, even though there were definitely more than one Quasi-Saints in the Devil Immortal Realm at that time, the only one who could awaken in a short period was the Jiuyou Demon Lord.
The process of Dao Integration isn’t necessarily one that prevents awakening, but unless it’s an existential crisis, the other Quasi-Saints of Demon-miasma Heavens really wouldn’t want to wake up for such a minor matter.
Waking up once could waste many years of effort.
Consequently, in the following years, Qin Changqing took Bai Wei under his wing, discussing and exchanging insights about the Dao with her.
Under his careful guidance, finally, after a few thousand years, Bai Wei, who had been stuck for who knows how long, became a Semi-Saint in one fell swoop.
“Qing, thank you.”
And after Bai Wei became a Semi-Saint, on this night, as she had been living closely with Qin Changqing for thousands of years, she gave herself to Qin Changqing.
Then, the Flowers Celestial Master felt helpless once more.
Her chosen successor was to marry Qin Changqing as well.
After Bai Wei married Qin Changqing, the Qin family now boasted three Saints.
Ten years later, Bai Wei bore Qin Changqing a child.
The birth of this child was an enormous event.
Even the powerful beings from several other heavens sensed it.
She, too, possessed a heaven-defying constitution, known as the Innate Delicate Taoist Body.
This physique had all the advantages of the Seven Apertures Delicate Body, as well as those of the Innate Taoist Body.
It wasn’t a mere sum of one plus one, for there were many more miraculous features.
Time flows like a song.
The march of time continued unabated.
One day, after completing the Nine Transformations, Phoenix Immortal finally ascended to the Devil Immortal Realm.
Her accumulated potential unleashed, she arrived in the Devil Immortal Realm in the Late Golden Immortal Stage. Furthermore, her progression to Great Luo became much easier.
Qin Changqing’s women and descendants were also growing rapidly.
However, even with the boost from the System, unlike Tao Yao who was reincarnated and cultivated anew, it would still take them a significant amount of time to reach the Golden Immortal.
By the time Qin Changqing’s ninety-thousandth birthday arrived, at last, one of his daughters reached the Golden Immortal stage.
This was Qin Yuyan.
Qin Yuyan stood out in all aspects among his daughters.
With the addition of the System’s boost, it was no surprise to Qin Changqing that she was the first to reach Golden Immortal.
As for Youyue and Su Xiaoxiao, they were currently at the Profound Immortal stage.
Qin Changqing’s demonic aspect of power also hence reached the Golden Immortal stage.
