Chapter 397: 397 - Blue Sea Kingdom (01)
During the few days that the travel to the land of the cat people lasted, Qingyi stayed with his wives.
He showered them with gifts and continued farming lust points, feeling his heart melt at every joyful smile he saw on their faces.
At the end of the last day of travel, he locked himself in a cultivation room on the flying ship, glancing at his status screen.
[Name: Long Qingyi
Age: 21
Cultivation: Second Stage Of The Enlightened Soul Realm (75,000,000,000 lust points to upgrade)
Affinities: Lightning: 1500 - Sword: 1000 - Fire: 1500 - Ice: 1500 - Charm: 1500 (can be upgraded in the lust store)

Constitution: Primordial Dragon Body (Sky grade, 750,000,000,000 lust points to upgrade.)
Lust points: 438,684,929,241]
"Ah... it’s good to be filthy rich," Qingyi flashed a broad smile.
That wasn’t even the total result of days of incessant sex with his wives, as he had already spent a fortune on gifts for them.
He bought upgraded protective artifacts capable of automatically transporting them to the world of the mind, as well as swords for the priestesses and his master as well as various other types of gifts.
He even spent over fifty billion lust points on spirit beasts for Khaedryss and Linyue to hunt.
The dragon had already absorbed the benefits of the hundreds of powerful beasts she killed in the land of the fox people, and her power bordered on that of a true immortal- no, Qingyi was sure that she could already devour a true immortal if she tried.
Khaedryss truly was an exceptional beast.
Even Margareth, who had devoted her entire life to magic, and Qianyao, a golden dragon and great source of wisdom, could not understand exactly how Khaedryss increased her power.
Unfortunately, that was something Qingyi would probably only discover when he went to find Elize’s family on the western continent.
Pushing useless thoughts from his mind, Qingyi simply clicked to improve his cultivation.
A mild pain took over his body, quickly replaced by a refreshing feeling and intense relaxation.
[Your cultivation has been improved! Second Stage of the Enlightened Soul Realm -> Third Stage of the Enlightened Soul Realm]
Qingyi exhaled, closed his eyes, and cultivated, using all the understanding he had accumulated from his previous breakthrough to prepare himself.
His fingers went to his spirit roots, clicking to improve them. Another two hundred and fifty billion lust points disappeared from his status.
His blood burned and his muscles tore. His lips parted in a pained groan as his meridians writhed in agony.
’Damn... it feels even more painful than before...’ Qingyi repeated in his mind, gritting his teeth.
His body was engulfed in intense light. His four types of Qi divided the world around him into exactly four parts before dissipating with a loud bang, generating a shockwave that made the entire ship shake.
For long minutes, the improvement continued, slow and painful, rebuilding Qingyi’s Dantian and meridians, multiplying his capacity to move and store Qi several times over.
[Spiritual roots of the primordial creation seed (Fire, Sword, Lightning, Ice) improved! Transcendent grade -> immortal grade]
A system notification reached Qingyi, who finally allowed himself to relax.
Opening his status screen, he glanced at the new prices.
150 billion to improve his cultivation to the realm of false immortal. The price to improve his spiritual roots reached ten trillion, an increase of more than forty times.
Well, it was only natural, since his spiritual roots were reaching the peak of what the immortal heavens allowed.
He even thought about improving his cultivation right away, but they had already landed, and he needed to talk to Tai’Ren before leaving with Linyue.
Sighing heavily, he left the cultivation room, immediately greeted by Linyue’s embrace.
Her orange ears perked up and her fluffy tail swayed gently from side to side as she threw herself into her husband’s arms.
"Come on, your father is waiting for us," Qingyi smiled, patting the cat girl’s butt.
"Let’s go, Nyan! I want to start our journey soon!" Linyue let out a cute and excited squeal.
Qingyi honestly wasn’t good with goodbyes and didn’t stay long with the cat people.
He just exchanged a bear hug with his father-in-law and waited until Linyue’s mother, with a teary look, said goodbye to her daughter.
Many of her children had already gone on long and dangerous journeys at least once, but not her precious little Linyue.
In the end, all she could do was hand her daughter a powerful protective artifact and ask Qingyi to protect her well.
Soon after, Qingyi withdrew Meilin’s flying ship from the world of the mind and began his long journey back.
***
In the Blue Sea Kingdom, it had been many months since the civil war had begun.
A decisive battle took place between the two brothers, a confrontation that only ended with the death of the second prince at the hands of the Crimson Blade Duke, who sacrificed himself to deliver the final blow and put his nephew on the throne.
In this battle, Jin Meilin, daughter of the Golden King, Margareth, a noblewoman from another continent, and Qingyi, a prodigious cultivator, had also disappeared.
Naturally, the third prince was already aware of what had happened. The Lord of the Howling Winds City had blown himself up, taking Qingyi with him.
Right now, he was sitting on the throne that once belonged to his father, recognized by the people and the true immortals who guarded the royal family.
All his subjects were kneeling, except for one: his brother-in-law and current manager of the Five-Color Pavilion, Jin Tianshi.
"Your Majesty, my sister’s death was a great tragedy, but too much time has passed.
Grant me permission, and I will take control of the Burning Red Pavilion.
I promise that I will forgive your debt and personally erect a monument in memory of my sister and the young hero, Long Qingyi!"
Tianshi’s irritating, slightly hoarse voice echoed through the throne room.
Of course, unlike the new king, Tianshi already knew that his sister and Qingyi had survived and had contacted their father through the branch in the land of the beastmen.
But what did that matter? If Tianshi already had complete control of everything Meilin had worked to build when she returned, she would end up with nothing again.
