Chapter 154: Chapter 154: Gu Yuena’s Ninefold Blessing, Immortal Execution Sword Formation, and Mountain-Crushing Technique
"Don't worry. As long as you keep quiet, no one will notice!"
"No… don't…"
Zhou Yi embraced Li Qingluo, sinking into a bed of flowers.
The light and shadows around them shifted subtly. To an outsider, it seemed as though nothing had changed, but in reality, they were now completely concealed from view.
The Golden Crow descended in the west.
The Jade Rabbit rose in the east.
Li Qingluo's cheeks flushed a deep crimson. Leaning softly against Zhou Yi's chest, her alluring eyes shimmered as her delicate fingers traced lazy circles on his chest.
"How was it?"
Zhou Yi's expression was playful as he gazed at Li Qingluo. "Madam, are you satisfied?"
"You scoundrel!"
Li Qingluo pouted coquettishly, her radiant smile glowing with charm.
"You just love tormenting me."
Her words carried a flirtatious tone, her mood evident in every gesture and expression.
"But… you claimed to have extraordinary medical skills," Li Qingluo suddenly remembered something, her face slightly shifting. With a trace of worry, she gazed at Zhou Yi.
"I… I can't bear children. If I were to… someone might find out. You have to guarantee it won't happen, or else…!"
Zhou Yi, recalling the methods of the notorious Lan Xiaodie, teased Li Qingluo into using a particular solution.
"You rogue!"
Li Qingluo rolled her eyes at Zhou Yi. Her internal cultivation wasn't particularly advanced, and she was genuinely worried about any mishap that might result in pregnancy.
Seeing her concern, Zhou Yi reassured her with a laugh. "Relax. If you don't wish for it, I guarantee it won't happen!"
"Really?"
Li Qingluo's face lit up with joy.
"What? You don't believe in my abilities?" Zhou Yi raised an eyebrow, his confidence palpable.
Recalling Zhou Yi's extraordinary prowess, Li Qingluo decided to trust him.
After all, she was well aware that resisting him would be futile.
Zhou Yi's days were consumed with both cultivation and his relationships with the many women in his life. Among them, some, like Li Qingluo and Yan Rou, had no pressing desires.
But Zhou Yi never forced them.
Still, there was something about Li Qingluo's gentle yet captivating demeanor that made Zhou Yi particularly enjoy teasing her. Of course, he also cherished others, from the immortal-like Zi Ji and Bi Ji to Wang Qiu'er, Xue Di (Snow Empress), and Bing Di (Ice Empress).
Over time, Zhou Yi's household continued to grow. This particular day marked an extraordinary event: Bo Saixi had given birth—to twins, a dragon and a phoenix. Zhou Yi named them Zhou Bo and Zhou Xi.
Shortly after, both the Demon Empress and Lan Fozi bore sons, named Zhou Jinghuang and Zhou Jingfo, respectively.
The rewards from these births were substantial:
Reward 1: Ten years of cultivation for each child.
Reward 2: Ten years of lifespan for each child.
Reward 3: Two bottles of Supreme Foundation-Building Pills (ten pills each).
Reward 4: One hundred years of cultivation.
Reward 5: Two million-year Soul Rings (random soul skills).
The reward of an additional hundred years of cultivation thrilled Zhou Yi. While his current cultivation had reached the bottleneck of Level 128, this substantial boost propelled him to Level 129, closing in on the divine threshold of Level 130.
Reaching Level 130 required breaking through a formidable barrier—a task that many cultivators could never achieve in their lifetimes. However, with the sheer force of his accumulated cultivation, Zhou Yi shattered this limitation and stepped into Level 130.
Upon reaching this level, Zhou Yi could attach new soul rings to his two martial souls. After absorbing the rewards, his Immortal Execution Sword Martial Soul* unlocked a new soul skill: Immortal Execution Sword Formation.
This formation transformed sword qi into an array, with Zhou Yi himself as the array's core. A single strike unleashed an apocalyptic storm of blades, far surpassing the power of his original Immortal Execution Sword Qi.
In addition, Zhou Yi could transmit this technique to others, making it invaluable for fortifying his domain. He planned to use divine weapons, such as the Heavenly Sword and the Yue King's Eight Swords, as formation cores, creating an impregnable defense for both Martial God City and his estate.
Zhou Yi's second martial soul, the Candle Dragon, unlocked the divine skill Mountain-Crushing Technique, an unparalleled body-refinement art.
This technique, derived from the legendary 36 Celestial Techniques, allowed Zhou Yi to harness the power of mountains, incorporating their essence into his physical body.
With a roar, Zhou Yi activated the technique before a towering peak. A phantom of the mountain separated from its form and merged into his body, unleashing a tidal wave of immense, crushing power.
Every fiber of his being transformed, his physical strength escalating to an unimaginable level.
"This is the true path of body refinement!" Zhou Yi exclaimed, feeling the profound changes within him. With this art, he could rival even the divine physiques of ancient gods and demons.
His aura grew heavy—like a towering mountain.
His body continued to expand.
Two meters.
Three meters.
Finally, he reached a staggering height of fifteen meters.
"So powerful!"
Zhou Yi spread his arms, clenched his fists, and cracks appeared in the void, dark and endless, unable to bear the strain.
"This isn't my limit!"
Zhou Yi continued to fuse with the Mountain Souls of other peaks.
Mountain Soul was Zhou Yi's term for the essence of a mountain, the illusory shadows of mountains he had previously absorbed into his body.
As one mountain soul after another merged into him, Zhou Yi's body swelled.
After fusing with nine mountain souls, Zhou Yi's size surged to 99 meters. His body was adorned with flickering mountain-like patterns, his presence as heavy as a mountain, resembling a primordial god or demon.
"I can't push it any further for now!"
"But with just the power of my physical body, I can crush a God King of the Divine Realm!"
Zhou Yi's entire body surged with power, an infinite might coursing through him. For a moment, he felt an audacious desire to challenge the heavens themselves.
With a rip of his hands, space shattered like paper.
"Unstoppable!"
Zhou Yi shrank his body back to its original size.
Activating the Heaven-Concealing Technique from the Concealing the Heavens and Crossing the Sea, he restrained his aura completely, appearing no different from an elegant young noble with no martial skill.
Yet, feeling the immense power lying dormant within him, Zhou Yi swiftly returned to the Zhou Residence.
For an entire month, Zhou Yi didn't take a single step outside the manor.
He tested his newfound strength.
Even if Bo Saixi, Er Long, Ah Yin, Xiao Wu, Snow Empress, and Ice Empress joined forces, they were utterly no match for him.
Especially with the Mountain-Crushing Technique, which was not only an offensive technique but also a body-tempering method that devoured the power of mountains for cultivation.
This technique was transforming Zhou Yi's body toward that of a true god or demon.
Its terrifying strength was beyond imagination.
Another half month passed.
Zhou Yi quietly set up two layers of Immortal Execution Sword Formation around the Martial God City and the Zhou Residence, entrusting their control to Er Long, Ah Yin, Bo Saixi, and Gu Yuena.
"Er Long, Ah Yin, Xixi, Nana, I'm planning to visit the Divine Realm," Zhou Yi said, gathering his wives together. "One day in the Divine Realm is equivalent to a year in the mortal world, so I'm not sure how long I'll be away."
"But don't worry. With my current strength, even if I let the gods of the Divine Realm attack me freely, they wouldn't be able to harm me!"
"There's no danger at all."
"Just stay here, protect yourselves, and take care of the family."
"Don't worry, husband."
Having witnessed Zhou Yi's overwhelming strength, the women weren't overly concerned.
"Nana, take good care of yourself and the baby. I'll make sure to return before you give birth."
Zhou Yi looked at Gu Yuena.
Initially, he had planned to wait for Gu Yuena to give birth before going to the Divine Realm to obtain the Golden Dragon King's essence, but this pregnancy was anything but ordinary.
With Zhou Yi's cultivation, he could clearly sense that Gu Yuena was carrying nine children.
And their birth wouldn't happen anytime soon.
It was akin to Nezha's prolonged gestation.
These nine children were extraordinary.
Their birth would likely drain a significant portion of Gu Yuena's essence, which was why Zhou Yi decided to visit the Divine Realm first.
"Don't worry, husband. We'll be fine at home. Take care of yourself while you're away!"
"Rest assured. I'm off!"
Zhou Yi kissed his wives, then silently left Douluo Continent, heading for the Divine Realm—a place coveted by countless beings.
"Gods of the Divine Realm, I hope you obediently hand over the Golden Dragon King to me. Otherwise, you'll learn firsthand what it means to face fists the size of mountains!"
