Chapter 489: Big Reward_1
Qin Changqing went on to test the other features of the Golden Armored Divine Soldiers.
As it was the first floor, these Golden Armored Divine Soldiers didn’t possess many capabilities. They could only display their power, but in an actual battle, they were not as commendable as the cultivators at the second-tier decline stage.
If Qin Changqing could advance to the second or even third floor of the ‘Soybean Into Soldiers’ immortal technique, its power would surely become dreadful.
The strength of these Golden Armored Divine Soldiers would increase, their methods would become more diverse, and they would last longer.
As it stands, these Golden Armored Divine Soldiers could exist for about the length of a burning incense stick.
One burning incense stick is approximately half an hour.
This time period was not precisely short either.
After the trial, Qin Changqing was quite satisfied with the ‘Soybean Into Soldiers’ immortal technique.
Although casting this technique felt as if a high-powered ice-making machine was draining a considerable amount of his True Origin, Qin Changqing was still gratified.
The consumption of ‘Soybean Into Soldiers’ was indeed substantial. Even if the golden beans were prepared in advance, if the third-tier decline cultivator fully implemented it once, their True Origin would be drained.
Qin Changqing’s True Origin far exceeded others, even if he cast ‘Soybean Into Soldiers’, he would still have ample True Origin to sustain his combat force.
With the ‘Soybean Into Soldiers’, even though he was at the first floor, Qin Changqing’s methods undoubtedly became more potent.
His combat power grew increasingly formidable as well.
Real power is, after all, a person’s confidence.
The confidence of the current Qin Changqing was indeed abundant.
When the next wave of experience comes in, Qin Changqing can continue to enhance ‘Soybean Into Soldiers,’ and its power will further increase.
If the grand reward of reaching twenty thousand descendants comes through, Qin Changqing should be able to successfully breakthrough this immortal technique.
The power, by then, would become, even more, more prominent.
Of course, the most crucial aspect of this immortal technique lies in one’s own strength.
Even if Qin Changqing completely mastered it, and his own strength did not improve, the Golden Armored Divine Soldiers he cast would not be excessively formidable.
Soon, another ten years passed.
In these ten years, the world was still peaceful, and no significant events occurred.
There were still no traces of Ancestor Dongfang and the woman.
The Sect Leader was still in seclusion.
During these ten years, Qin Changqing accepted several more concubines.
These concubines were all female cultivators with both beauty and remarkable cultivation levels.
However, there were none above the ‘Combine Body’ stage, mostly between ‘Combine Body’ and ‘Deifying.’
Su Xiaoxiao’s secret technique seemed to have entered its final stage.
Every time when Qin Changqing went to see her, her enthusiasm was notably high.
Ten years had passed, and Qin Ruoyan had already reached the Golden Elixir stage.
She was only about thirty years old now.
As for Qin Xue, her progress was faster than Qin Ruoyan’s. After she deified at the age of a hundred, in a few decades, she had reached the Late Nascent Soul Stage.
In this way, it seemed that Qin Xue could possibly reach the Void Refinement stage at the age of just over two hundred.
Such speed was perfectly normal, as she was, indeed, a reincarnated immortal.
The descendants of Qin Changqing’s Spiritual Root were increasing at a speed of about fifty per year.
Now, the intensity of the fourth decline had also become ferocious. The energy consumed from passing the tribulation increased every few years.
This was normal, as the fourth decline also had a hundred small waves, and it became more formidable the later it was.
The tribulation passing energy was still manageable.
But there was some risk in the final ten years.
Fortunately, soon after almost ten years, the number of descendants of Qin Changqing’s Spiritual Root finally broke through twenty thousand.
The wave of major rewards arrived once again.
This wave of rewards substantially replenished Qin Changqing’s nearly exhausted tribulation passing energy.
There was no need to worry about the final ten years now.
After this wave of rewards arrived, Qin Changqing allocated the experience to ‘Soybean Into Soldiers’ and completely mastered this immortal technique.
Upon complete mastery, the Golden Armored Divine Soldiers he deployed became much formidable.
The methods of the Golden Armored Divine Soldiers became varied, the strength grew stronger, with advanced preparation of even better golden beans, he could even deploy Golden Armored Soldiers beyond his own realm.
It’s just that if the realm exceeded, the actual combat power might not surpass Qin Changqing’s, as he had long been capable of surmounting his own level.
The consumption had also decreased significantly.
“Not bad.”
A smile appeared on Qin Changqing’s face.
There was still a significant amount of experience left from this wave of rewards. Qin Changqing allocated some again to the ‘Immortal’s Guide’ technique and some to strengthen other methods.
Although the ‘Immortal’s Guide’ technique had only one function, its difficulty of learning was slightly more than ‘Soybean Into Soldiers.’
Besides, implementing it was difficult at the level below the Immortal.
After allocating twenty thousand years of experience, Qin Changqing determined that he had barely mastered the basic level and didn’t rush to allocate more.
He would wait until his strength was even stronger.
At this moment, Qin Changqing’s strength and methods became even more potent.
This round of major rewards greatly increased the chance of Qin Changqing giving birth to descendants with excellent Spiritual Roots.
“How’s it going?”
The voice of the True Martial Saintess resounded in the Dream World.
The second year after this wave of major rewards arrived, Su Xiaoxiao and the True Martial Saintess met again in the Dream World.
What they didn’t know was that Qin Changqing had also entered the dream and was listening to their conversation intently.
“I’ll be ready in five years. I’ll need your cooperation then.”
Su Xiaoxiao said.
“I have one request.”
The True Martial Saintess looked at her and said.
Su Xiaoxiao: “Tell me.”
True Martial Saintess: “Even if you succeed, you must not hurt Qin Changqing. And, Xiaoxiao, so many years have passed, I thought your heart would change.”
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the True Martial Saintess’s face.
However, this was the Dream World, where it was impossible for her to get an insight into the True Martial Saintess’s thoughts.
“Su Ying, you surely haven’t fallen in love with him?”
Su Xiaoxiao asked.
The True Martial Saintess didn’t respond directly and instead counter-questioned: “You have given birth to so many of his children. Isn’t your heart moved at all?”
Su Xiaoxiao fell silent.
After about ten seconds, she finally said: “If I succeed, I will take him back to the Demon Saint Palace where we will lead a life of mutual affinity and love. As for you… it will all be based on your choice.”
The True Martial Saintess stared at her for a moment: “What do you need me to do?”
Su Xiaoxiao said: “Like this….”
She began to outline her plan.
“Five years.”
After the two exited the Dream World, Qin Changqing softly uttered.
In this way, he needed to further shorten the time.
He had nine years left until the end of the fourth decline.
Qin Changqing wanted to reach the fourth decline before Su Xiaoxiao’s plan.
Although even at the third decline, he could face off equally with Su Xiaoxiao, who was also at the third decline.
But reaching the fourth decline would certainly be safer, and it could prevent unexpected situations from occurring.
Qin Changqing took a look at the tribulation passing energy and further increased the intensity of the fourth decline, reducing the time to four years.
This way, the consumption was even greater.
However, with the major rewards and descendants reaching a million every few years, Qin Changqing could withstand this consumption.
