WTF, The Centuries-Old Ancestor In Our Family Take Concubine Again!

Chapter 184

“Uncle Jin, the main reason for our visit this time is to inquire about something,” Li Su explained.

“Husband, I’ll ask,” Bi Luo said. “Uncle Jin, I recently discovered that the sea clans seek a certain sacred artifact fragment. Do you know if there are any sacred artifact fragments from the sea clans within our sect?”

Bi Luo was exceptionally intelligent and took the initiative to speak first. After marrying Li Su, her heart and soul naturally belonged to him, but that didn’t mean she was naive. In the entire northern region, there were very few people who knew that the sea clans’ last attack on the Blue Star Sect was in pursuit of a sacred artifact fragment. Li Su was the son-in-law of the Blue Star Sect, and it would be better for him to ask than her.

Bi Luo asked because even if it involved the Blue Star Sect’s secrets, it wouldn’t be an issue.

“A shard of a sacred artifact?” The cultivator Jin appeared puzzled. “I’ve never heard of any sacred artifact fragment within our sect, and our sect leader has never mentioned it. If there is one, it should be in the possession of our sect leader.”

Li Su felt that he probably wasn’t lying. There was no need to lie.

“Uncle Jin, did my father ever emphasize the need to protect something in particular?” Bi Luo asked.

The cultivator Jin thought for a moment and said, “No, your father simply instructed me to ensure your safety, but now that you’re married to Elder Li, I don’t need to worry about it.”

“Thank you, Uncle Jin. I won’t disturb your seclusion any longer,” Bi Luo replied.

Bi Luo said, and the cultivator Jin shook his head. “It’s no problem. I’ve already reached the Nascent Transformation stage, and I’m just waiting to adjust my state before advancing to the Nascent Soul stage.”

His lifespan was not extensive, and in Li Su’s estimation, he had at most a little over two decades left. While over two decades might be a lengthy period for mortals, it was short for him. Moreover, the cultivator Jin had consumed too many longevity-extending elixirs, making it less effective to extend his lifespan through elixirs further.

“Uncle Jin, this Spirit-Building Pill should be beneficial for your Nascent Soul advancement,” Li Su suggested after some consideration, handing over a Spirit-Building Pill. The cultivator Jin was a decent person, just like Bi Luo’s father, and was someone who valued relationships.

According to Bi Luo, when he was young, he had a Dao partner, but their time together was brief, lasting just over a decade before the partner tragically passed away. However, in the thousands of years that followed, the cultivator Jin never remarried. Perhaps it was due to this decision that he reached the peak of the Nascent Transformation stage despite having less than stellar spiritual roots.

Creating Spirit-Building Pills wasn’t particularly difficult for Li Su, and he still had some in stock. Offering one to help the cultivator wasn’t a big deal. Spirit-building pills only increased the probability of success. The actual outcome still depended on the cultivator, Jin.

When the cultivator Jin saw the Spirit-Building Pill, his expression became somewhat incredulous. Soon, he displayed an ecstatic expression, getting excited and eagerly accepting the Spirit-Building Pill.

“Elder Li, I’m deeply grateful for your kindness,” the cultivator Jin said, bowing deeply to Li Su.

“Uncle Jin, please go into seclusion. You don’t need to be overly concerned about the sect’s matters,” Bi Luo added.

“Alright!” The cultivator Jin said and, true to his word, took the Spirit-Building Pill and headed into seclusion.

It was uncertain whether he would succeed, but even if he did, once he reached the Nascent Transformation stage, it was unlikely that he would be able to advance to the mid-stage of Nascent Transformation with all his effort. He might remain in the early stage of Nascent Transformation for the rest of his life.

Individuals like him who break through to Nascent Transformation in their later years usually have exhausted much of their potential. Unless he could enter a sacred place and receive abundant rare resources for his cultivation, his prospects were limited.

“But that’s very challenging. Is it worth using resources to cultivate a Nascent Divinity that takes over three thousand years to achieve? It’s not cost-effective. Instead of spending hundreds or even thousands of years nurturing a Nascent Divinity with ordinary spiritual roots, wouldn’t it be better for a sect or sacred place to cultivate one for you? For most cultivators, attaining Nascent Divinity within a thousand years is merely a dream. Still, for those with third-grade spiritual roots or higher, it’s achievable if they have access to good resources.”

Sacred places typically had stricter requirements for accepting disciples, especially their Spiritual Roots.

“Husband, it seems like no one knows about it. I’ll ask my father,” Bi Luo suggested. After inquiring with a few Nascent Transformation cultivators within the Blue Star Sect, they hadn’t heard of such a thing and were completely unaware of what it was. This was perfectly normal. If not for Bi Luo, Li Su would not have known the sea clans’ goal–the sacred artifact fragment.

If even my father-in-law doesn’t know, then this matter is quite intriguing, Li Su thought. Bi Luo had already sent a message through the communication stone. Li Su patiently waited. Communication stones were indeed very useful, but long-distance communication did have its limits. These communication stones were also limited in number. They were made from a special type of stone, typically found near spirit stone mines.

It didn’t take long for Bi Luo to receive a reply from Bihai. “Husband, my father doesn’t know either. He said he had already sent a message to Elder Huang, who is in charge of managing the sect’s storage. If you know what the sacred artifact fragment looks like, you can go to the sect’s storage and have a look.” Bi Luo said,

Bihai doesn’t know what the sacred artifact fragment is. Could the sea clans make a mistake? Or is it possible that the sea clans are correct, but the people of the Blue Star Sect don’t know that the sacred artifact fragment is here? Li Su thought it was likely the latter. The people of the Blue Star Sect were unaware of the sacred artifact fragment’s presence.
