Patriarch is Taking Concubines Again!

“Is she back?” Li Su said and perched high above the square near the North Sea Spring Source, also spotted the Black Dragon. He immediately recognized her as Mo Lin, who had taken on the form of a dragon. A few years prior, she had set out to restore her True Dragon bloodline, but Li Su wasn’t certain of her success.

After a glance at her, Li Su shifted his attention away as the sea beasts once again approached. This territory belonged to the sea beasts, but the impact of the seawater’s suppression on Li Su was noticeably milder compared to other cultivators. He had established a formidable formation that harnessed sunlight from thousands of miles around, countering the suppression and providing a continuous energy source.

The sea beasts were rapidly closing in. Li Su instructed over a dozen Nascent Soul stage Sea Tribe members, “You all guard the spring source. Leave these creatures to me.” With a subtle hand gesture, a swarm of Flying Immortal Swords was released. Li Su had meticulously refined these Flying Immortal Swords to the level of high-grade magical treasures, a set of 96 of them. There was no need for top-grade magical treasures at this point. Using high-grade magical treasures allowed him to unleash about 70-80% of their full power, while middle-grade magical treasures enabled their full potential.

The 70-80% power of high-grade magical treasures surpassed the full power of middle-grade ones. If a top-grade magical treasure were used, it wouldn’t be as effective due to its limited power and substantial energy consumption. As the sea beasts charged in, the 96 Flying Immortal Swords swiftly dwindled their numbers.

Li Su’s hand moved, conjuring hundreds of mirrors on his palm. The beam of light from above flooded the surroundings, greatly reducing the suppression experienced in the underwater environment.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

The massive fifth-layer Azure Dragon Beast trembled under Li Su’s relentless attacks. This creature possessed incredibly tough skin and strength comparable to the third or fourth layer of Divine Transformation. However, as a sea beast, its combat prowess paled compared to cultivators or the Sea Tribe. Previously, even Mo Lin had held her ground against it, and it was only in her battle against Li Su that she faltered.

Mo Lin, a Divine Transformation Loli, displayed remarkable strength, enduring the fifth-layer Azure Dragon Beast for a substantial period, only succumbing when faced with another fifth-layer sea beast.

“Senior Li is exceptionally formidable!”

“You’re right, Senior Li’s aura has certainly intensified.”

The observers from the North Sea Clan marveled at Li Su’s prowess near the North Sea Spring. Li Su stood alone, surrounded by sea beasts unable to get close. Even the two Level 5 sea beasts were showcasing their full capabilities. They possessed robust defenses and potent offensive techniques. For instance, the Azure Dragon Beast had a hidden water manipulation ability, allowing it to create sudden, powerful water eruptions with destructive force.

Fortunately, when these creatures launched a sudden attack, Li Su was well-prepared and protected himself using the Green Cloud Mirror. Li Su had already refined all of his cherished magical treasures to the level of high-grade magical treasures.

Typically, for a cultivator at the Divine Transformation stage, their favored treasures consisted of low-grade or middle-grade magical treasures. Some Divine Transformation layer Sea Tribe members, like the Crab People’s Divine Transformation, didn’t even possess magical treasures and had to rely on high-grade spiritual tools, a rather unfortunate situation. Nevertheless, the materials for their high-grade spiritual tools were of magical treasure quality. They simply lacked a skilled artificer to refine them.

Li Su, on the other hand, had taken matters into his own hands, forcefully melting excellent materials in a special volcano to forge a high-grade spiritual tool. His materials were so exceptional that a skilled artisan could have refined at least a middle-grade magical treasure from them. These sea beasts were outmatched by Li Su, who possessed numerous treasures.

In a short span, Li Su had both fifth-layer sea beasts under his control. The blockade formed by the Flying Immortal Swords also deterred a significant influx of sea beasts, leading to their doom. Li Su’s overwhelming power left the Sea Tribe elites near the North Sea Spring Source in awe. One of Li Su’s concubines, a beautiful serpent woman resembling the Gorgon from an anime Li Su had watched in his past life, watched with admiration in her eyes.

Mo Lin, too, was somewhat stunned by the display. She couldn’t help but marvel at Li Su’s terrifying aura during the battle. Although she was in the early stages of Divine Transformation, she hadn’t been at this stage for very long. Yet, the Sea Tribe did have a few Divine Transformation stage members, and in her perception, Li Su’s strength exceeded the early stage of Divine Transformation, possibly reaching the mid-stage.

He was already in the mid-stage of Divine Transformation!

Li Su had made incredible progress in such a short time, less than thirty years since he defeated her outside the Azure Mist Sect. Mo Lin’s mind was filled with shock. It dawned on her that even after completing her True Dragon bloodline, she might not be a match for Li Su, considering his formidable spiritual roots.

Mo Lin, who appeared as a young girl Loli, sighed softly, realizing she might never regain her pride in this lifetime. The battle raged on, and despite facing two fifth-layer sea beasts and a multitude of sea beasts, Li Su held his ground.

From an outsider’s perspective, it appeared all the sea beasts had surrounded him. However, upon closer inspection, it was evident that it was the sea beasts who were trapped. Li Su stood alone, forming a formidable barrier that kept them at bay.

Rushing headlong into the fight only led to one outcome–death. If those two fifth-layer sea beasts hadn’t cooperated effectively, Li Su might have already taken one down. Killing a Nascent Soul stage cultivator was challenging, relatively speaking, but for Divine Transformation cultivators, it was much more achievable. While it was difficult to kill a Divine Transformation cultivator, defeating them was comparatively easier.

This principle applied to human cultivators, and sea beasts, in general, were easier to handle than human cultivators of the same level, though exceptions existed. These two fifth-layer sea beasts posed a formidable challenge due to their cooperation. One possessed formidable water control abilities, while the other constantly utilized thunder-based attacks. Both sea beasts were of the heavily armored, massive type, adorned with exceptionally thick scales and remarkable defensive capabilities. However, despite their effective coordination, they were powerless against Li Su.
