<strong>Chapter 226</strong>


    Li Su was in high spirits. Mo Lin, though small in stature, seemed youthful but brought unique experiences. Li Su couldn’t let Mo Lin bear his children because her true dragon bloodline wasn’t fully restored. The Auger n mobilized many powerful individuals, searching everywhere for atavistic dragon bloodlines. However, finding them wasn’t as simple as it might seem.


    Time wasn’t the most crucial factor–luck was. If one was fortunate, they might discover one soon. In reality, luck yed a vital role. Some opportunities were hard toe by without good fortune. Therefore, the Northern Territory’s Immortal Ascension Conference existed. While some cultivators had mediocre spiritual roots, their good luck allowed them to flourish, making them valuable additions to the sect.


    On a particr day, Li Su apanied Mo Lin to the North Sea. Mo Lin, the divine beauty, was surprisingly reserved in front of Li Su and rarely conversed with him, except when they were alone.


    “Mo Lin, take these pills, and this dragon-scale armor is specially crafted for you. It can be activated before your transformation into a dragon and provide excellent defense afterward,” Li Su presented a beautiful silver-white piece of armor. The craftsmanship of this armor was undoubtedly exceptional, a top-grade magical treasure.


    For a Nascent Divinity, low-grade and mid-grade magical treasures were more suitable, but going slightly beyond that was eptable, given the skill required to craft it. What made this magical treasure exceptional was its adaptability. It could be worn in Mo Lin’s dragon-human form and would transform into a scaly armor that draped over her after her transformation into a dragon. Its most remarkable feature was its performance when Mo Lin transformed into a dragon, inspired by a blue dragon beast with armor.


    Li Su had to use rare materials from the sea n’s treasury to craft this custom-made armor due to its high material requirements. It offered excellent defense without energy infusion, although the materials were rare.


    Moved by Li Su’s effort, Mo Lin, the divine beauty, stored the armor and transformed into a ck dragon, disappearing into the North Sea toplete her true dragon bloodline.


    “Master, these are the items you requested. We searched far and wide and finally found these,” Mo Qi brought heavenly materials and earthly treasures, addressing Li Su as “Master” despite Mo Lin’s marriage.


    Li Su’s kindness to the Northern Sea n was indeed highly significant. After gathering these items, Li Su provided some magical treasures he had crafted for the Nascent Divinities and mid tote-stage Core Formation experts in the sea n. Mo Qi was surprised by the generosity.


    “Elder, please deliver these items to them,” Li Su said.


    “Master, these magical treasures are incredibly valuable. The North Sea will surelypensate you generously. Whatever you need, I will have our n search the entire North Sea to find it,” Mo Qi expressed with genuine excitement.


    The sea ncked expertise in refining tools and alchemy.


    Li Su had crafted numerous high-quality magical treasures for the esteemed members of the sea n, enhancing their favor towards him significantly. It wasn’t difficult to envision the excitement courting through the sea n’s formidable members upon receiving these magical treasures.


    After Mo Qi had left with the magical treasures, Li Su had some free time. A few dayster, he warmly weed a guest.


    “Li Su, my young friend,” greeted the Sect Master of the Tianluo Sect. Apanying him was a beautiful female cultivator.


    “Li Su, let me introduce myte brother’s daughter, Luo Yuxin. She has a remarkable talent from our Eastern Region, possessing a third-grade spiritual root. Even the Returning Origin Sect once sought her for recruitment,” the Tianluo Sect Master said with pride.


    Li Su couldn’t help but cast a second nce at Luo Yuxin. A third-grade spiritual root, a heavenly spiritual root, marked her as a true genius, surpassing over 99.9% of cultivators.


    The Tianluo Sect Master didn’t beat around the bush. “After ourst encounter, Yuxin couldn’t stop thinking about you. If you hold any affection for Yuxin, I propose that she bes your concubine under my auspices. What are your thoughts?”


    The Tianluo Sect Master, a formidable Nascent Soul-stage cultivator and the leader of a second-grade immortal sect was known for his directness. This straightforward approach didn’t imply ack of diplomacy. Rather, it was an efficient mode ofmunication.


    Luo Yuxin’s face turned bright red, extending to her neck as she waited for Li Su’s response. However, before he could reply, a servant arrived with news of additional guests.


    “Haha, Sect Master of Tianluo, I didn’t anticipate such a swift response,”ughter resounded.


    The Headmaster of the Xuantian Academy had also appeared, soon followed by the Peak Master of the Dieyun and the Sect Master of the Myriad Beasts Sect. These immortal sects had attended Li Su’s recent wedding to establish positive connections and leave a favorable impression.


    Now, with the wedding concluded and time on their side, they had seized the opportunity to visit and seek to win Li Su over, hoping to recruit him into their respective sects. They had discreetly monitored each other’s actions, ready to follow suit if one sect made a move to avoid being outdone by rivals.


    Observing the representatives from other sects arriving, the Tianluo Sect Master wasn’t one to be outdone. He boldly said, “While the Tianluo Sect may not boast as many resources as others, we have a plethora of talented female cultivators. Li Su, your charisma has captivated numerous female disciples from our sect. If you decide to join us, any of our disciples with fourth-grade or higher spiritual roots can be your concubine. Furthermore, as you strengthen, I will pass my position as sect head to you.”


    Li Su’s inclination to take concubines presented an attractive proposition for those seeking to cultivate a favorable rtionship with him. Various cultivation families in the Northern Territory hoped their daughters would be Li Su’s concubines. However, his standards had be more demanding. If an individual’s talent didn’t meet the mark, exceptional beauty and character were necessary. Li Su asionally weed exceptionally beautiful mortal women into his life.


    Hence, the approach taken by the Tianluo Sect Master was tailored to appeal to Li Su’s personal preferences. He understood that without such an approach, the Tianluo Sect wouldn’t stand a chance against the Returning Origin Sect, even with a Nascent Soul-stage cultivator. As a first-grade immortal sect, the Returning Origin Sect possessed resources and influence far surpassing what a second-grade sect couldpete with. Without taking a different path, he had no chances whatsoever.


    “The leader of Tianluo Sect is truly generous. Although Xuantian Academy may not have many female disciples, our collection is one of the most extensive in the Cann Realm. Our library even houses ancient texts from the bygone Cann Realm, though thenguage used back then differs from the present day, and not many canprehend it.”


    “Not only that, but the number of scrolls and books we have on formations, alchemy, and artifact crafting rivals that of the revered sects.”


    “Even if Li Su isn’t inclined to join Xuantian Academy, it’s not a problem. With the Xuantian Token, he can freely ess and peruse these scrolls and books in our academy,” the Headmaster of Xuantian Academy added.


    He possessed a significant sense of vision and generosity. His intention was likely to establish good rtions, even if he couldn’t persuade Li Su to join Xuantian Academy. Exceptional talents like Li Su were usually exclusive to the revered sects, and bing a Sacred Son in such a sect was not particrly challenging. Yet Li Su’s current potential far exceeded that of a Sacred Son. Li Su had risen to his current status entirely through his efforts, surpassing the Sacred Sons, who quickly ascended in the revered sects with top-tier resources.


    While the Headmaster of Xuantian Academy spoke, the Headmaster of Myriad Beasts Sect, along with the captivating-looking woman, also contributed.


    “Fellow Taoist, Chu Xi is here primarily to establish a positive rtionship with you. To be honest, within our Myriad Beasts Sect, we have a spiritual tortoise that has lived for tens of thousands of years. Just a month ago, this spiritual tortoise spoke and dered that you have the potential to achieve immortality.”
