391: Chapter 391 The Path to Immortality

Knowing that he wouldn't be able to draw good traits next, Chen Hu couldn't be bothered to draw anymore.

Instead, he took out a communication talisman and injected a message: "I have good things. I'll wait for you at the old spot. Come quickly."

After sending the message, Chen Hu opened all his card rewards at once.

After opening them, he left the Small World and tore through the Void Realm to leave.

A while later, Chen Hu stepped out of the Void Realm and arrived on a mountain peak.

He took out a table and two chairs, set them up on the mountaintop, and took out a tea set to start brewing tea.

Just as he finished brewing the tea, a flash of sword light streaked by, and a beautiful figure appeared on the mountaintop.

In fact, one could tear through the Void Realm upon reaching the Dao Integration Realm.

However, upon just reaching the Dao Integration Realm, tearing through the Void Realm consumed quite a lot.

Therefore, Cultivators who had just achieved a Breakthrough to the Dao Integration Realm would often still choose to travel by sword.

"Coming early is not as good as coming at the right time. Qianqian, sit down and have a cup of tea!" Chen Hu invited with a warm smile.

Xia Qianqian nodded and sat down. She took the hot tea Chen Hu handed her, took a sip, and said, "The tea brewed by Young Master Chen is exceptionally delicious."

"Then drink a few more sips!" Chen Hu laughed, "By the way, during this time, has Nangong Yun continued to trouble you?"

Xia Qianqian said, "She has already been stripped of her position as Saintess. She's busy hiding, so how could she have the mind to trouble me?"

"Oh, how so?" Chen Hu asked curiously. It definitely wasn't him being gossipy; even if it was gossip, it was something Luo Ningshuang had passed on to him.

Xia Qianqian said, "In the Tianyu Sacred Land, there are nine Saints and nine Saintesses. In the past, Nangong Yun relied on her Revered Master, Immortal Venerable Hanyan, and a top-tier Family backing her, so she was very arrogant. She offended quite a few Saints and Saintesses. Now that she has been stripped of her position as Saintess, the other Saints and Saintesses she offended naturally all want to kick her while she's down. Unfortunately, I don't know if she anticipated this, but she immediately announced she was going into seclusion."

Speaking of this, a look of schadenfreude couldn't help but appear on her face. Suddenly, she thought of something, "Has the Nangong Family come to trouble you?"

Chen Hu said, "Yes, one at the ninth level of the Dao Integration Realm came, but I killed him, and there has been no movement since!"

"Then you weren't injured, right?" Xia Qianqian asked with concern.

"I don't know, why don't you come and check for yourself?" Chen Hu said with a frivolous tone.

But Xia Qianqian didn't show any dissatisfaction; instead, she said coquettishly, "You still have the mind to tease me, it seems you are fine."

"Smart!" Chen Hu praised.

At this moment, the expression on Xia Qianqian's face became serious, "I estimate that the Nangong Family won't send anyone for a short time. After all, the Nangong Family is only a top-tier power. Losing three Dao Integration Realm experts in succession is a very painful matter for them. If they continue to lose more, I estimate Nangong Yun's father won't be able to sit securely in his position as Family head. So, in the short term, they probably won't dare to trouble you again."

"They won't trouble me, but I actually want to go and trouble them!" Chen Hu sneered.

"You must not be impulsive!" Xia Qianqian quickly tried to dissuade him, "Although the talisman treasure bestowed by my Revered Master can block an attack from the fifth level of the Mahayana Realm, if it takes too many hits, it will still be destroyed."

"Don't worry, I have it under control!" Chen Hu said confidently.

"What control do you have? No, you are not allowed to go!" Xia Qianqian's voice rose sharply.

"Unless you kiss me, I won't go!" Chen Hu said with a grin.

Xia Qianqian immediately realized that Chen Hu was teasing her, and said crossly, "Then do whatever you want!"

After some teasing, Chen Hu took out a jade bottle and handed it to Xia Qianqian, "There are three drops of heaven and earth treasure liquid in here. You had better dilute it before using it!"

"heaven and earth treasure liquid!" Xia Qianqian exclaimed, "Where did you get this kind of thing!"

She could be considered well-read, so she knew what heaven and earth treasure liquid was. It was a top-tier Heaven And Earth Treasure, which only appeared in the Early Stages of the birth of heaven and earth. This world had been in existence for who knows how many years, so naturally, there would be no more heaven and earth treasure liquid in existence.

"You don't need to worry about where I got it; just tell me if you want it or not!"

Xia Qianqian said, "You should keep it for yourself; it's too precious!"

"Don't worry, I still have some on hand!" Chen Hu stuffed the jade bottle into Xia Qianqian's hand, took the opportunity to grab her hand and wouldn't let go, and even started to fiddle with it.

"You really are a rogue!" Xia Qianqian scolded softly.

"Then do you like it?"

"Rogue!"

"Not answering means you like it."

"I do not!"

Suddenly, Chen Hu pulled Xia Qianqian into his arms and kissed her cherry lips.

A quarter of an hour later, the two separated.

Xia Qianqian pounded on Chen Hu's chest, "I knew you guy didn't have good intentions. Every time we meet, you think about bullying me."

"Me bullying you means I like you." Chen Hu teased.

"Twisted logic." Xia Qianqian snorted softly, but she voluntarily leaned her head into Chen Hu's arms.

Next, the two were lovey-dovey for another hour before Xia Qianqian reluctantly left.

The next morning, Chen Hu didn't have breakfast in the Liuyun Immortal Mansion but wandered to the streets of the outer city.

Ever since he tasted street breakfast once, Chen Hu had become interested in it.

Furthermore, through his Divine Sense, he discovered that there were hundreds of varieties of breakfast in Xuanwu City.

He decided to try a few types every day; after all, he didn't need to Cultivate now, and he had plenty of time.

After finishing breakfast and wandering for a while, Chen Hu walked back to the Liuyun Immortal Mansion, only to find three people standing outside the door.

They were the three Mahayana Realm experts he had enslaved using loyalty cards.

He called them into the mansion, and they immediately took out three spatial rings.

Then, Chen Hu immediately transferred the 3 billion people inside the spatial rings into the Small World.

After dismissing the three tools, Chen Hu went in to give a speech and hoodwink the 3 billion people.

Then, 2.98 billion people directly pledged their loyalty.

If the remaining 2 million people didn't pledge loyalty after a while, he would let them go mine.

In the time that followed, the tools came one after another to complete their tasks.

Each tool brought 1 billion people.

By seven o'clock in the evening, there were 83 billion more people in Chen Hu's Small World.

Through his speech and bewitching, 82.9 billion out of these 83 billion people directly pledged their loyalty.

This caused the number of his underlings to directly break through 100 billion, reaching 103.7 billion.

Seeing this number, Chen Hu felt an irrepressible excitement inside and hoped that the early morning would come sooner.

In the next two-plus hours, more tools came to complete their tasks.

Therefore, by the early morning, the number of underlings reached 130.5 billion.

As soon as the early morning passed, the newly added underling points arrived, directly bringing the underling points to 139.578 billion.

For a moment, Chen Hu felt like he had become rich overnight.

Swish, his figure flashed, and Chen Hu entered the Small World.

"System, upgrade my Cultivation to the ninth level of the Mahayana Realm!" Chen Hu ordered.

10 billion underling points were deducted, and his Cultivation reached the ninth level of the Mahayana Realm in the blink of an eye.

"System, how many underling points are needed to Breakthrough to the Human Immortal Realm?" Chen Hu asked the System.

The System directly injected the relevant information into his mind. After reading the information in his mind, Chen Hu had a certain understanding of the Human Immortal.

An Immortal's strength is composed of two parts: Immortal Body and Immortal Origin. The Immortal Body is the Physical Body, and the Immortal Origin is the magic power.

Generally speaking, after becoming a Human Immortal, most Immortals choose one path to improve. Some improve the Immortal Body, and some improve the Immortal Origin. Of course, some people choose to walk both paths. Immortals who walk both paths have combat power that far exceeds those of the same Rank.

However, it consumes more time and Cultivation resources.

Furthermore, the higher the Rank of an Immortal, the smaller the possibility of fighting across Ranks.

For example, in the Human Immortal Realm, for a Human Immortal who Cultivates both the Immortal Body and Immortal Origin, if they are strong, even fighting across three Ranks is not a strange thing. But by the Earth Immortal Realm, one can generally only fight across two Ranks. By the Heaven Immortal Realm, being able to fight across one Rank is already quite good. As for the Profound Immortal Realm, fighting across Ranks is already a delusion.

If Chen Hu chooses to Cultivate both the Immortal Body and Immortal Origin, it will cost 200 billion to Breakthrough to the Human Immortal Realm. In the future, every time he raises a Realm, it will cost 200 billion. If he only chooses to improve the Immortal Origin or the Immortal Body, it will only cost 100 billion.
