Patriarch is Taking Concubines Again!

Chapter 125

“The Yuan Magnetic Barrier has been unsealed!”

“Elder Li is truly remarkable!”

“This is fantastic. It’ll make traveling to the Northern Territory much simpler in the future!”

“Indeed, this passage not only opened the Yuan Magnetic Barrier but also drove away all the demon beasts.”

Numerous cultivators exclaimed with excitement on the Flying Immortal Sect’s flying boat.

The former Sect Masters of the Fiery Sun Sect and the Seven Star Valley, now known as Elder Chiyang and Elder Lengfeng, were equally shocked.

“He unlocked the Yuan Magnetic Barrier!”

Even the Sect Master’s aunt couldn’t help but inhale deeply.

Hailing from a prestigious family, she had witnessed many things, yet when she saw the Yuan Magnetic Barrier, she realized its complexity. With her cultivation at the Nascent Soul late stage, she didn’t dare to approach it.

A mere touch could trigger the entire Yuan Magnetic Barrier, potentially causing severe injuries or death. But Li Su had managed to open it.

Even the Sect Master wore a surprised expression. Having spent so long at Immortal Corner Peak, she knew the Yuan Magnetic Barrier’s terrifying nature. That demonic snake, residing in the Yuan Magnetic Zone from infancy to maturity, had used and interacted with Yuan Magnetic energy for countless years. Yet, even it had been injured by a slight touch.

If it hadn’t been injured, the initial wave of demon beasts would have been harder to handle. The creature’s injury was a testament to the Yuan Magnetic Barrier’s danger.

So, how could other cultivators, even Nascent Soul stage cultivators, dare to approach it?

Li Su had made some progress in his research. However, with his current level of formation skills, he could only partially weaken this area. He couldn’t completely remove the Yuan Magnetic Barrier.josei

Even if he could remove it, Li Su wouldn’t, as he had made a crucial discovery. The Immortal Weapon fragments in Mangkang Mountain were highly likely genuine and still present.

The elemental magnetic barrier in Mangkang Mountain was formed by the elemental magnetic energy emitted when the immortal artifact fragments fell and spread throughout the entire mountain, creating a natural formation.

Mangkang Mountain’s elevated nature was also linked to these immortal artifact fragments, making the natural formation exceptionally potent.

It resembled a Feng Shui formation but was much more powerful due to the immortal artifact fragments acting as the “formation eyes.”

Anyone attempting to disrupt the elemental magnetic barrier on a large scale would face a counterattack from the entire natural formation, even more terrifying than the immortal artifact fragments. Fortunately, this elemental magnetic energy was confined within Mangkang Mountain by the natural formation, preventing it from affecting the entire northern region.

It appears that the primary attack mechanism of this immortal artifact is elemental magnetic energy, Li Su pondered. Indeed, elemental magnetism was formidable.

After using the surrounding mountains and rivers to set up small formations and integrate them into the natural formation, Li Su created an opening, like an alliance, when he couldn’t overpower his foe. His formation merged with the natural one, allowing him to safely navigate the pathways previous individuals had used to breach the elemental magnetic barrier.

He still refrained from directly tampering with the entire elemental magnetic barrier, fearing that disrupting the natural formation could unleash an elemental magnetic storm that would affect Immortal Peak of Hope and the entire northern region. Of course, achieving this was no easy task.

The chances of the natural formation malfunctioning were lower than the odds of Li Su being overwhelmed by this extensive formation. Thus, despite knowing about the immortal artifact fragment underneath, Li Su didn’t consider obtaining it immediately.

The concept of immortality was awe-inspiring. It represented the zenith of power, an eternal existence aligned with heaven and earth, and a shared connection with the sun and moon. Li Su’s current strength was insufficient to secure the immortal artifact fragment, and his knowledge of formations was lacking.

His three thousand years of formation expertise were formidable, surpassing any formation master in the northern region. However, more was required to smoothly dismantle this natural formation, restore the elemental magnetic energy to the immortal artifact fragment, and successfully acquire it. Moreover, his current strength was inadequate, and incomplete formation knowledge could lead to significant disruptions.

If he did acquire the immortal artifact fragment, it would be similar to an inexperienced child suddenly stumbling upon a ten-pound gold nugget—an uncertain blessing or curse.

Thus, Li Su had merely opened the elemental magnetic barrier, leaving the rest for later. Knowing others couldn’t lay hands on this relic, he wasn’t in a rush. His three millennia of formation expertise allowed him to deduce clues and speculate that the fragment still resided here.

Yet, all cultivators in the northern region regarded this as mere legend. Countless cultivators had likely come and gone empty-handed throughout history. The entire northern region lacked three thousand years of formation mastery, let alone more prosperous areas.

Formations demanded an enormous investment of time. Balancing cultivation and formation study made progress challenging. Most Nascent Soul cultivators couldn’t even hope to live for three millennia.

The hundreds of miles between Immortal Peak of Hope and the northern region allowed a steady influx of spiritual energy. Now that the passage was open, the formations by Li Su kept demonic beasts at bay, ensuring the passage’s relative safety.

Li Su planned to establish a city atop Mangkang Mountain within the passage, giving him control and providing a place for cultivators to trade and stay. The abundant spiritual energy from the northern region had already started to flow in.

Though the flow wasn’t rapid, Li Su had set up a small formation within the passage to accelerate it. This influx of spiritual energy was similar to a gentle spring breeze caressing the faces of all the cultivators on the flying boats.

“Such richness in spiritual energy!” exclaimed an early Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Flying Immortal Sect, who had never ventured beyond Immortal Peak of Hope. Others shared his joy.

Among the Flying Immortal Sect’s cultivators, aside from the three sect leaders, most had never left Immortal Peak of Hope and were unaware of the northern region’s spiritual energy density. Now they understood—the natural spiritual energy of the northern region far surpassed that of Immortal Peak of Hope.

“This is wonderful. With this, we’ll never lack spiritual energy on Immortal Peak of Hope again,” one cultivator couldn’t hide their excitement. Before experiencing the northern region’s density, they hadn’t realized anything was amiss with their home’s spiritual energy.

But now that they have experienced it, they understand. It was like saying, “I could have endured the darkness if I had never glimpsed the light.”
