Chapter 345: Senior Spirit Emperor, you also want your Domain to reach Perfection, right?

"Put it away."

Li Xuanfeng signaled for the Spirit Emperor to quickly put away the Soul-Cleansing Tree.

"Aren't we going to deduce it together?"

The Spirit Emperor, who was about to pick the Soul-Cleansing Fruit, paused her movement.

"Keep the Soul-Cleansing Fruit for next time. This time, I have something even better!"

As he spoke, two gray fruits appeared out of thin air in Li Xuanfeng's hand.

"This is…"

The Spirit Emperor carefully examined the two strange fruits. After a moment, her beautiful eyes widened slightly, and she looked at Li Xuanfeng with a surprised expression on her pretty face: "Could this be… Dao Comprehension Fruits?"

Li Xuanfeng nodded slightly.

The Spirit Emperor was instantly stunned.

Li Xuanfeng truly was a human-shaped walking treasure vault. It was impossible to know where he got so many treasures. Just when you thought the treasure he pulled out was astonishing enough, he could produce an even more astonishing one.

Under Li Xuanfeng's silent gaze, the Spirit Emperor quietly put away the Soul-Cleansing Tree.

Li Xuanfeng smiled and casually tossed the two Dao Comprehension Fruits beside the pillow.

The Dao Comprehension Fruits definitely had to be eaten, but not first. It wasn't too late to eat them after finishing what needed to be eaten first.

"Senior Spirit Emperor…"

Li Xuanfeng gazed into the Spirit Emperor's eyes, stroked her smooth hand, and then slowly leaned closer to that flawless, breathtakingly beautiful face. All sound vanished in the vast space. The two drew closer and closer, so close they could feel each other's breath brushing against their faces.

The Spirit Emperor suddenly grew tense, her heart pounding wildly.

"Senior Spirit Emperor, you also want your Domain to reach Perfection, right?"

Li Xuanfeng tilted his head slightly, leaned close to the Spirit Emperor's crystal-clear, jade-like ear, and gently exhaled a breath, faintly inhaling the delicate fragrance from her hair.

"Mmm~"

The Spirit Emperor, whose Physique was inherently sensitive, instantly became soft and weak all over, letting out a faint, mosquito-like hum.

A strong, large hand encircled her slender waist, supporting her jade-like back as she slowly lay down.

"Li Lang, could you… not call me Senior…"

The Spirit Emperor gazed at Li Xuanfeng with dazed eyes, her voice so soft it was almost inaudible.

"Senior Spirit Emperor, you smell so good!"

Li Xuanfeng seemed not to hear her words, his gaze fixed on the beauty before him, the faint fragrance lingering at the tip of his nose.

"I… mmm…"

The Spirit Emperor wanted to say something more but could no longer produce any extra sound.

…

The fierce battle between the War Blood Asura and the Gray Flood Dragon continued, with neither able to gain the upper hand.

The shockwaves from the battle occasionally surged towards the Heaven-Piercing Tower, yet the tall tower stood quietly, unmoving.

After Leng Wuyan's figure disappeared, she never appeared again, as if she had already left this space.

"One with strange methods, unwilling to give up; the other seems to have surrendered, waiting for death on the spot."

While the two remnant Saints were locked in battle, they never gave up their attention on Leng Wuyan and Li Xuanfeng.

Leng Wuyan's true body was a Saint, and her methods were somewhat special. Concealed within this space, even the Gray Flood Dragon found it difficult to pinpoint her location clearly.

The Gray Flood Dragon's power was too incomplete to perfectly control this space. However, as time passed, Leng Wuyan's power would inevitably be exhausted, at which point her concealment methods would weaken, and finding and dealing with her wouldn't be too difficult.

As for Li Xuanfeng, in the eyes of the Gray Flood Dragon and the War Blood Asura, he had already given up resistance, hiding inside the Heaven-Piercing Tower, quietly awaiting death.

Li Xuanfeng, with his Peak King Realm cultivation, could unleash combat power comparable to an ordinary Peak Venerable Realm. Although the two remnant Saints appeared arrogant on the surface, deep down they did not ignore his Prodigy level.

If Li Xuanfeng could cross the major Realm barrier between the King Realm and the Venerable Realm, his strength would inevitably skyrocket, and the situation would reverse.

However, they were not at all worried about this happening because the entire space of the Central Palace's rear hall had entered a state of collapse, completely isolated from the outside world. Even if Li Xuanfeng had the talent, he couldn't absorb enough power to achieve a Breakthrough.

The power contained within the Heaven-Piercing Tower might be sufficient for most King Realm Cultivators to break through, but it definitely couldn't support a Prodigy of Li Xuanfeng's level to Breakthrough to the Venerable Realm!

Power couldn't just appear out of thin air, right?

Therefore, neither remnant Saint was worried, only thinking about quickly depleting Li Xuanfeng's power, then killing him and seizing the quasi-Saint weapon.

Whoever obtained the quasi-Saint weapon would win the final victory in this battle.

Fight! Fight! Fight!

Kill! Kill! Kill!

The War Blood Asura controlled the Blood Rain Venerable's body, its bloody aura filling the space majestically, as if it had entered a frenzied battle state. With the Seven-Colored Beast Spirit Flame and the Heavenly Mountain Saint Snow Lotus as energy supplements, it had no fear of power consumption.

Intense energy shockwaves constantly surged towards the Heaven-Piercing Tower, and the forbidden annihilation space compressed repeatedly, trying to find Leng Wuyan's concealed figure.

Time passed quickly in the evenly matched, fierce battle.

One day, two days, three days…

One month, two months, three months…

The two remnant Saints fought incessantly. They found Leng Wuyan's concealed figure several times, forcing her out using battle shockwaves, but they were unable to eliminate her.

The power of the Heaven-Piercing Tower was also constantly being depleted. Compared to the beginning, its aura had noticeably weakened.

In the blink of an eye, five months had passed.

While a great battle raged outside, Li Xuanfeng was purely enjoying the pleasure of Cultivating.

The Spirit Emperor went from being nervous and afraid at the beginning to slowly adapting to the rhythm, as if opening the door to a new world, experiencing unprecedented Cultivation pleasure.

The two took the Dao Comprehension Fruits, Cultivating and deducing together, their strength gradually increasing without them realizing it.

If the Spirit Emperor's improvement was gradual and traceable, then Li Xuanfeng's was marked by occasional, strange surges in aura.

This was because the Daughters of Destiny he had bound were also rapidly progressing, and each of their Breakthroughs brought him improvements.

[Ding! Wei Qingyan's cultivation has greatly increased, breaking through to the fifth level of the Core Shattering Realm. Tenfold return, your cultivation has gained a slight improvement!]

[Ding! Xu Miaozhen's cultivation has greatly increased, breaking through to the ninth level of the god shedding realm. Fiftyfold return, your cultivation has gained a small improvement!]

[Ding! Luo Li's cultivation has greatly increased, breaking through to the ninth level of the Unity Realm. Tenfold return, your cultivation has gained a small improvement!]

[Ding! Ming Yuesnow's cultivation has greatly increased, breaking through to the eighth level of the Life and Death Realm. Thirtyfold return, your cultivation has gained a small improvement!]

[Ding! Ming Yueqing's cultivation has greatly increased, breaking through to the Peak of the eighth level of the Life and Death Realm. Thirtyfold return, your cultivation has gained a small improvement!]

Every Daughter of Destiny bound to Li Xuanfeng was bringing him returns.

Their progress speed had actually never been slow. As individuals blessed by destiny, they not only had high talent but also Opportunities far surpassing most Cultivators.

However, because Li Xuanfeng was cheating, for every improvement the Daughters of Destiny gained, he had a minimum tenfold guaranteed return. The more Daughters of Destiny he bound, the more exaggerated the returns he received.

The Daughters of Destiny were destined to never catch up to his footsteps; their strength would only fall further and further behind.

Therefore, by comparison, these Daughters of Destiny seemed less exaggerated. In reality, any one of them alone would be a top-tier elite in any place.

The Realm barrier between the Peak King Realm and the Venerable Realm was too powerful. To break through it required a massive amount of energy. Wei Qingyan, Xu Miaozhen, Luo Li, Ming Yueqing, and Ming Yuesnow weren't even at the King Realm. So, even though their strength had greatly increased over these months, bringing Li Xuanfeng many returns, it hadn't allowed him to successfully break through the Realm barrier.

To successfully break through, he still had to rely on his Master Lian Yuezhou or the Spirit Emperor.

[Ding! Wei Qingyan experienced ten life-and-death battles, gaining a large amount of precious combat experience. Hundredfold return, you have gained a large amount of life-and-death battle experience!]

[Ding! Luo Li watched a phantom perform Alchemy for nine days and nine nights, gaining a new comprehension of the Dao of Alchemy. Tenfold return, you have gained some new comprehension in the Dao of Alchemy!]

[Ding! Xu Miaozhen gained insight and created the Medium Grade Heaven-Grade Martial Skill 'Rainbow Piercing the Sky'. Tenfold return, you gained insight and comprehended and created the High Grade Heaven-Grade Martial Skill 'Spear Piercing the Sun'!]

[Ding! Ming Yuesnow and Ming Yueqing discussed the Dao of Formations…]

Every so often, Li Xuanfeng could gain harvests out of thin air. Besides cultivation, there were increases in knowledge like Alchemy comprehension, Formation comprehension, and combat comprehension.

Even Medicinal Pills, Spirit Stones, weapons, and various other Cultivation resources would occasionally increase in his System space.

Li Xuanfeng experienced what true, enjoyable Cultivation was: enjoying exploration with the Spirit Emperor while continuously and automatically increasing experience, comprehension, and Cultivation resources in all aspects. This was the true pleasure of Cultivation!

Wei Qingyan, Xu Miaozhen, and the others hadn't broken through to the King Realm yet, so the returns they brought him weren't particularly large relative to his current cultivation. But as the saying goes, many a little makes a mickle. Any gain related to Cultivation would be returned to Li Xuanfeng with a minimum guaranteed multiple of tenfold.

If just one of them became a Venerable, Li Xuanfeng would possess at least ten times the power of a Venerable!

If two became Venerables, the guaranteed minimum would be twenty times the power of a Venerable!

What if they became Saints?

Then it would be a guaranteed tenfold, twentyfold, thirtyfold… Saint power!

Bind as many Daughters of Destiny as you want, and the guaranteed minimum is that many times tenfold!

"The next Daughter of Destiny is Leng Wuyan. I need to see her true body as soon as possible."

Li Xuanfeng handed the initiative to the Spirit Emperor. His thoughts drifted to Leng Wuyan, wondering if her Incarnation had been destroyed by the War Blood Asura and the Gray Flood Dragon.

After five months of hands-on guidance, the Spirit Emperor had gone from being inexperienced to proficient, consolidating the Yin-Yang Profound Refining Technique through practical application.

Because his Chaos Golden Bone had reached the second stage of Perfection, to avoid injuring the Spirit Emperor, Li Xuanfeng had restrained a lot of his power. Now, he simply handed the initiative completely over to her.

The two took the Dao Comprehension Fruits, enjoying Cultivation, improving their cultivation, and deducing Secret Arts, none of which were neglected.

The Spirit Emperor's Domain finally showed signs of growth.

The limit range for a mid-level King Realm Domain was 720,000 li. The Spirit Emperor's Domain had long reached 719,999 li. It seemed only one li away from the limit, but this one li was a chasm.

As long as she could reach the limit of Perfection, the Spirit Emperor's strength could increase significantly. Although it couldn't compare to Li Xuanfeng's, among all Peak King Realm Cultivators in the world, it would be hard to find a second one.

For the sake of Domain Perfection and for that indescribably wonderful pleasure, the Spirit Emperor took the initiative Li Xuanfeng offered and diligently Cultivated the Yin-Yang Profound Refining Technique.

Time marched on relentlessly.

The battle between the War Blood Asura and the Gray Flood Dragon still hadn't produced a victor, but Leng Wuyan's concealed Incarnation had been forced out several times. Already injured and unstable, her aura had now noticeably declined further.

"At most, within a year, whether it's this Incarnation or that quasi-Saint weapon, their power will be exhausted. Then the true winner will emerge!"

Both the War Blood Asura and the Gray Flood Dragon thought this.

Everything was developing according to their plan.

After several months of depletion, Leng Wuyan no longer posed a major threat, but they still had to guard against any last tricks she might have.

As for Li Xuanfeng, the power of the quasi-Saint weapon had also noticeably declined. Presumably, his remaining power couldn't last many more months.

In the blink of an eye, another four months passed.

[Ding! Wei Qingyan's cultivation has greatly increased, breaking through to the seventh level of the Core Shattering Realm. Tenfold return, your cultivation has gained a small improvement!]

[Ding! Xu Miaozhen's cultivation has greatly increased, breaking through to the first level of the Unity Realm. Tenfold return, your cultivation has gained a small improvement!]

[Ding! Luo Li's cultivation has greatly increased, breaking through to the Peak of the ninth level of the Unity Realm. Tenfold return, your cultivation has gained a small improvement!]

[Ding! Ming Yuesnow's cultivation has greatly increased, breaking through to the Peak of the ninth level of the Life and Death Realm. Thirtyfold return, your cultivation has gained a partial improvement!]

[Ding! Ming Yueqing's cultivation has greatly increased, breaking through to the Peak of the ninth level of the Life and Death Realm. Thirtyfold return, your cultivation has gained a partial improvement!]

Over four months, the familiar System notification sounds rang out several more times.

Overall, Wei Qingyan and Luo Li not only improved rapidly in these four months but had shown very rapid overall improvement in the past year or so. This was likely due to the intense training their Master Lian Yuezhou took them through, as Li Xuanfeng had already gained a lot of life-and-death battle experience and comprehension from them.

The two girls' Cultivation was quite arduous, constantly walking the line between life and death. Improvement in life-and-death situations was often the fastest. Both girls had powerful Physiques and were blessed by destiny, making their improvement speed even more exaggerated.

As for Xu Miaozhen, with the Chaos Spirit Refining Platform Li Xuanfeng left for her, her Breakthrough speed was very fast in the god shedding realm. Now she had even stepped into the Unity Realm in one go!

And Ming Yuesnow and Ming Yueqing also had the Cultivation resources Li Xuanfeng left, especially the Life Profound Pills and Death Profound Pills that could help with rapid Breakthroughs. Li Xuanfeng had arranged sufficient quantities for the sisters at the time.

Xu Miaozhen, Ming Yuesnow, and Ming Yueqing, although not walking the line between life and death like Wei Qingyan and Luo Li, were probably stimulated by being unable to contact Li Xuanfeng for a long time, thinking something had happened to him. They Cultivated quite desperately. Combined with sufficient matching treasures and resources, their rapid improvement was completely expected.

"Almost there, almost there!"

Li Xuanfeng felt he was about to break through.

The returns from each individual Daughter of Destiny might not be much, but added together, they were not to be underestimated. He felt he had exceeded the limit of the Peak King Realm. The invisible Realm barrier was covered in dense cracks, needing just one more push to shatter.

"Li Lang, I… I've reached Perfection!"

The Spirit Emperor, sitting atop Li Xuanfeng, suddenly let out a delicate cry. Her brow glowed brightly, and a Domain like a pure land descended uncontrollably.

Hum!!!

The entire space inside the tower began to tremble. Vast power converged towards the Spirit Emperor. Her Domain had finally reached the limit of Perfection at this moment, achieving 720,000 li!

Simultaneously, her cultivation reached the absolute Peak of the King Realm, touching the Realm barrier. There was no further advancement possible; only by breaking through that barrier could she Breakthrough to the Venerable Realm!

Powerful fluctuations swept out. The Spirit Emperor could clearly feel her power surge significantly.

Before, she had no ability to fight back against a Venerable.

But now, she might be able to retreat unscathed!

"Senior Spirit Emperor, I've broken through too!"

Li Xuanfeng grabbed the nearly exhausted Spirit Emperor, swiftly flipped over, and smiled at her as he spoke.
