A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 32

“Thank you for the elixir, senior!”

Shen Zilei and the others genuinely knelt down this time, speaking to Wu Hao with immense gratitude in their tone. They had been trapped in the Late Stage of the Quasi-Emperor realm for tens of thousands of years. Although a breakthrough to a lower realm wouldn’t extend their lifespan, it brought them one step closer to advancing to the Great Emperor stage. Perhaps, in their lifetime, they might have the fortune to break through to become a Great Emperor.

Moreover, the senior before them had recently broken through to the Great Emperor stage as well. This meant that the path was still open, and they too could reach the Great Emperor level.

“Alright, you can head back now. By the way, don’t spread news of today’s events, nor should you take action against the Li Dynasty. If the Li Dynasty dares to make a move against my son, then it will naturally require my son to seek revenge.”

“And also, keep my identity confidential, understood?”

Wu Hao looked at Shen Zilei and the others, instructing them. A flash of pity for the Li Dynasty passed through their eyes, and they quickly nodded in agreement before turning to leave.

Just after Shen Zilei and the others turned away, a deeply resentful voice came from behind Wu Hao—Wu Rulong.

“Dad, asking me to destroy the Li Dynasty is a bit too much, don’t you think?”

“It’s fine. You’ve reached the Saint level in less than a hundred years of cultivation. If you give yourself a thousand years, you should be able to reach the Supreme level. At that time, I can grant you an Imperial Weapon, and with the enhancement of the Imperial Weapon, it shouldn’t be a problem to take down the Li Dynasty,” Wu Hao said to Wu Rulong with an incredibly serious tone.

Upon hearing Wu Hao’s words, Wu Rulong was initially taken aback, but he soon reacted, speaking with great astonishment.

“Dad, do you have an Imperial Weapon?”

After spending a long time in the Xuantian Realm, Wu Rulong had learned more about the terrifying nature of Imperial Weapons. Within the entire Xuantian Realm, there were only four Imperial Weapons, and it was the existence of these four Imperial Weapons that had resulted in the current Four Great Sacred Lands, showcasing their power.

Just when Wu Rulong thought his father possessed an Imperial Weapon, Wu Hao shook his head and then said, “Although I don’t have an Imperial Weapon, I can refine one.”

In fact, refining an Imperial Weapon isn’t that difficult. As long as Wu Hao is given a little time and teaches the younger generation with exceptional Spiritual Roots the techniques of forging, they can quickly improve their skills to the level of creating Imperial Weapons or even Celestial Weapons.

Upon hearing that his father could refine an Imperial Weapon, Wu Rulong’s breathing became hurried. After learning from Wu Hao about the materials needed to forge an Imperial Weapon, he promptly ordered their collection.

Once the issues concerning the Wu Commerce Association were resolved, Wu Hao didn’t linger any longer and chose to return to the Central Region. After all, his wife was still in the secret realm; although he couldn’t enter, watching from outside was quite nice.

Wu Hao felt quite pleased with this thought.

Meanwhile, Li Xukun was anxiously pacing back and forth inside the Soul Lamp Hall. In the Xuantian Realm, as long as one reached the Golden Core stage, they could transfer a trace of their power into the Soul Lamp, allowing them to observe the condition of the cultivator through the Soul Lamp’s state.

The saying that “when a person dies, the lamp goes out” reflects this principle.

Just as Li Xukun was filled with anticipation, a sudden sharp bang startled him, leaving him momentarily frozen in place, hardly daring to believe what he saw.

He noticed that the Soul Lamp at the highest point of the hall had shattered, and the name of Li Tianran was distinctly visible on it.

Upon witnessing this scene, Li Xukun felt his heart shatter alongside the Soul Lamp. He realized that the Ancestor had failed and could only hope that when the Ancestor died, the enemy did not confirm that he was from the Li Dynasty.

Before long, Li Xukun arrived in the forbidden area. Upon learning that Li Tianran had failed and passed away, the remaining seventeen Ancestors fell into silence, clearly taken aback that someone who had once shared a resting place in the Rebirth Coffin was now reduced to ashes.

However, the most shocked among them was Li Xuqing. As one of the only two peak Quasi-Emperor experts in the entire Li Dynasty, he was aware that Li Tianran possessed a Quasi-Imperial Weapon. If the assailant was also a peak Quasi-Emperor, then Li Tianran should have been able to hold his ground.

This left only two possibilities: the attacker had a true Imperial Weapon, or the attacker’s strength was far superior to Li Tianran’s. Regardless, either option was beyond what the current Li Dynasty could withstand.

Thinking of this, Li Xuqing’s tone became exceedingly dejected as he transmitted a message, saying, “Xukun, from now on, do not oppose the Wu Commerce Association again. Otherwise, the only outcome awaiting the Li Dynasty will be death!”

Upon hearing Li Xuqing’s words, Li Xukun quickly responded, “I understand, Ancestor. I will think of ways to strengthen the relationship between the Li Dynasty and the Wu Commerce Association, and we absolutely will not go to war against them!”

Li Xukun wasn’t foolish; he knew that the current Wu Commerce Association was not something the Li Dynasty could provoke. Even if they dispatched all their Quasi-Emperor Ancestors, they likely wouldn’t stand a chance against the Wu Commerce Association.

Thus, as long as one wasn’t foolish, the best method was to maintain peace with the Wu Commerce Association and seek every possible way to forge a marriage alliance. Only then would the Wu Commerce Association refrain from taking action against the Li Dynasty.

However, while Li Xukun’s thoughts were optimistic, reality was harsh. From the moment he dared to send Shadow Agents to attack Wu Rulong, the doom of the Li Dynasty was sealed, leading inevitably to its destruction!

“This… is the legacy of the Magnificent Quasi-Emperor, isn’t it?”

Looking at the towering giant tower that had appeared in the Magnificent Secret Realm, Wu Yifan’s eyes were filled with astonishment.

After leaving his Great Grandmother’s side, Wu Yifan began searching throughout the entire Magnificent Secret Realm. Naturally, he didn’t overlook any fierce beasts or Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures he encountered; after all, no one was a match for him.

However, just a day prior, Wu Yifan felt as if he sensed something and rushed toward the central area of the Magnificent Secret Realm. To his surprise, a massive tower, towering over a million meters, had appeared at the center without his knowledge.

At that moment, a peculiar thought crossed Wu Yifan’s mind: by entering that tower, he would gain tremendous opportunities.

After some contemplation, Wu Yifan couldn’t resist and entered directly. After all, he had come here seeking the inheritance of the Magnificent Quasi-Emperor, and the tower before him seemed to be the most likely place to contain that legacy.

What Wu Yifan didn’t anticipate was that it was precisely because of his arrival that the inheritance of the Magnificent Quasi-Emperor finally emerged.

Almost simultaneously, as soon as Wu Yifan entered the giant tower, everyone in the Magnificent Secret Realm sensed something, their faces glowing with excitement as they looked toward the center of the realm.

“Is this feeling the inheritance of the Magnificent Quasi-Emperor?”

“Hiss, let’s go check it out. There’s supposedly a giant tower over a million meters high at the center of the Magnificent Secret Realm, containing the inheritance of the Magnificent Quasi-Emperor!”

“What? Wait for me! I want to claim the inheritance of the Magnificent Quasi-Emperor for myself!”

In an instant, everyone within the Magnificent Secret Realm rushed toward its center, and Wu Yifan, the first to enter the giant tower, had already arrived at its core.
