“Husband, Zihe~”
Tao Yao came again.
“Zihe, since you get along so well with your husband, why not get the wedding done? Right now, your husband doesn’t want to attract too much attention, so let’s have a small ceremony first, and after a while, I’ll arrange a grand wedding for you,”
Seeing the harmonious atmosphere between Qin Changqing and Zihe, Tao Yao seized the moment to strike while the iron was hot.
She was so proactive because she knew Zihe’s character.
If she didn’t seize the moment, this matter could be delayed for a long time.
“Ah?”
“What do you think, Zihe?”
“I.. Well, it’s up to you guys,”
Zihe, who was always graceful and poised, became somewhat hesitant.
She even didn’t dare to stay here any longer.
“Pfft~”
Her shy demeanor amused Tao Yao, who had never seen Zihe this shy before.
Therefore, a month later in Qin Changqing’s Immortal Mansion, a wedding ceremony began.
This wedding was not grand in scale, far less so than the weddings Qin Changqing had in the Blue Realm when he took female cultivators as wives.
Marrying a Golden Immortal, if celebrated grandly, naturally would be a very lavish affair.
But now, everything was kept simple.
Qin Changqing didn’t even have his own territory yet, still relying on the Xuanyuan Immortal City.
Even this Immortal Mansion was rented.
Zihe didn’t mind these things at all.
She didn’t even demand a supplementary celebration.
However, once reaching Great Luo, a bigger wedding celebration was still to be held.
“Master!”
At the wedding, the Sect Leader finally emerged from seclusion.
She had been in closed-door cultivation for a long time, and Qin Changqing, knowing that she was in seclusion during his ascension, had specifically instructed Tao Yao not to disturb her.
The Sect Leader was somewhat unruly, and Qin Changqing still enjoyed calling her Master from time to time.
“Mother~”
Qin Xue threw herself into the Sect Leader’s arms.
Her strength now surpassed that of the Sect Leader.
However, in front of the Sect Leader and Qin Changqing, Qin Xue still acted like a girl who never grew up.
Her favorite thing to do was to snuggle in Qin Changqing’s embrace.
This young girl.
Qin Changqing was also helpless when it came to her.
After the wedding, Qin Changqing entered his cave abode.
Inside, Zihe’s head was covered with a red bridal veil.
This tradition, across many Spirit Domains and the Immortal World, was the same.
Qin Changqing lifted the red bridal veil…
Underneath, was the face of Zihe, unadorned with any cosmetics, yet breathtakingly beautiful.
Zihe tonight was extraordinarily enchanting.
Qin Changqing had many women, among whom was now a Golden Immortal.
But Hua Feiyan became a Golden Immortal only later.
Whereas Zihe was already at the Golden Immortal Perfection.
As a lotus that became immortal, the blush on her face had a light pink hue.
Her body also carried a faint floral fragrance.
Extremely pleasant.
Qin Changqing was somewhat intoxicated.
And so,
he became drunk amidst the floral fragrance, seemingly floating in a celestial realm…
That night, Qin Changqing was entirely immersed in a wonderland.
Since there was no need to see off guests or the like, Qin Changqing didn’t rush to get up the next day.
He held Zihe close and began to whisper to her.
As they talked, they began again…
At the same time, Qin Changqing came to understand the benefits Tao Yao had mentioned.
To be precise, the delightful aspects.
This must be the marvel of plant-based immortals.
That is, after being with Zihe…
Qin Changqing felt his body and soul profoundly nourished.
Even his comprehension had improved.
The essence of his body had also been greatly strengthened.
Even his Spiritual Root had made great progress.
Looking at it this way, even if one’s natural Spiritual Root is mediocre, there are still solutions.
If one could marry several plant-based female immortals, then one’s Spiritual Root could also become formidable.
But the problem is…
Who could possibly marry someone with a poor Spiritual Root?
Zihe is a Golden Immortal, after all.
Those who manage to marry her would not have a bad Spiritual Root to begin with.
The present Spiritual Root has evolved into an Immortal Root after ascension.
The growth rate of an Immortal is determined by many factors, with the Immortal Root being a significant one.
However, it’s not as decisive as it is for cultivators.
Aptitude becomes even more important.
After all, if one can become an Immortal… their Spiritual Root wouldn’t be too lacking.
At this time, it’s a test of an Immortal’s overall qualities.
Including their own talents, as well as luck, wisdom, and even emotional intelligence, among other things.
This time, for their new marriage, Qin Changqing stayed with Zihe in their home for several months.
He really seemed to be enjoying his new life, to the point of forgetting to return.
As for having children, Qin Changqing was in no hurry.
Among his current children, there were many geniuses; he would not miss just one more.
If it happened by accident, then they would have one; if not, it wouldn’t be bad to wait until Ziyun reached Great Luo before having it.
Zihe also officially moved into the Qin family’s residence.
Of course, she had her own territory in Bai Huatian, but for now, she had no plans to return.
From time to time, Qin Changqing would come to see her. If she was comprehending Dao, he would not disturb her.
If not, Qin Changqing would find it hard to resist…
Time passed.
In Xuanyuan Immortal City, as time went by, Qin Changqing’s popularity slowly diminished.
After all, it’s impossible for people to focus on one thing forever.
Yet, whenever someone from the Qin family ascended, it still sparked much interest among the cultivators.
The energy needed to certify Dao continued to accumulate.
Eight hundred years after reaching Golden Immortal Perfection, on this day, Qin Changqing finally made a decision.
“This is it!”
He made his choice on the System.
This choice was in regard to his ascension to Great Luo.
He chose the most difficult path, which was also the most dangerous.
“Path of Heaven’s Stepping!” Qin Changqing murmured.
Path of Heaven’s Stepping!
These four words, when heard, were quite astonishing.
A Daluo Supreme Immortal upon hearing them would widen their eyes, and then exclaim, “Arrogant!”
Despite the power of Daluo, to talk of stepping on heaven?
The Way of Heaven is clear and bright, its brilliant light everlasting!
Even those above Daluo are still under the Way of Heaven.
Yet in the choices provided to Qin Changqing by the System, there was actually the Path of Heaven’s Stepping!
I must exist, so Heaven cannot be absent; I must be absent, so Heaven cannot exist!
This is what it means to step on heaven.
Therefore, Qin Changqing had never rushed to make a choice.
Now, he had finally decided.
He might as well certify the strongest path.
The Path of Heaven’s Stepping sounded amazing, but when certifying as a Daluo Golden Immortal, naturally, he could not really step on heaven.
This was merely to allow Qin Changqing to grow to that extent.
Once Qin Changqing made his choice, the rest was easy to handle.
Next, he would utilize the energy for certifying Dao to comprehend the Path of Heaven’s Stepping.
The entire process of certifying Great Luo was divided into two parts.
One part was to accumulate the energy for certifying Dao and to comprehend the Dao.
The second part was the formal certification of Dao.
Once the first part was perfectly completed, the second would be very simple.
If Qin Changqing did it himself, it would be somewhat difficult, but with the help of the System, it was much simpler.
The process of comprehending Dao was divided into ninety-nine stages. Each time Qin Changqing accumulated enough energy for a particular stage, he could begin.
Right, he didn’t need to do anything himself.
It was like when absorbing cultivation; he would automatically gain the experience needed for that portion of cultivation.
Over the years, the energy Qin Changqing had accumulated for certifying Dao was already sufficient to comprehend quite a few stages.
During this process, if Qin Changqing became more diligent, he could save a great deal of energy for certifying Dao.
And from this moment on, the process of certifying Dao had already begun.
As for the time required, it depended on the amount of certifying Dao energy and Qin Changqing’s progress.
Soon, Qin Changqing discovered that not only was his progress not slow, it was actually quite rapid.
His understanding of Dao was already profound. Even though this was the Path of Heaven’s Stepping, at the stage of certifying as a Daluo Golden Immortal, it wasn’t too difficult to handle.
