“It looks like I’ll need to focus on developing quietly for quite some time,” Han Li sighed, feeling the disparity in strength.
The reason his combat ability could reach the threshold of the Myriad Phenomena Realm was firstly due to the Zhenjun Sword and secondly because of the nascent embodiment of the omnidirectional martial truths, with the latter being the most crucial.
Without the nascent embodiment of the omnidirectional martial truths, his strength among those at the peak of the Hollow Void Stage would probably be one of the weakest.
This might be considered a downside of advancing too quickly in cultivation— his martial skills’ grade and depth couldn’t keep up with the speed of his cultivation progress, making him naturally much weaker than other cultivators at the same realm.
Han Li merely sighed about it, but in fact, he wasn’t worried. He had almost always stayed in Lingjun City, only leaving a few times in dozens of years, with an even smaller number of actual battles.
As long as he focused and endured for a while, once the number of his descendants increased and he obtained more complete high-rank cultivation methods, martial skills, and magical treasures, his strength would surge dramatically.
Han Li had ample time to endure and wait for his descendants to multiply and spread their branches.
After breaking through to the Hollow Void Stage, his lifespan had increased greatly once more—while the life expectancy of a typical Guru in the Void Realm was seven hundred years, Han Li’s lifespan far exceeded this number.
His lifespan was now 1,249 years, which was more than even those Great Grandmasters in the Myriad Phenomena Realm, though, of course, it wasn’t nearly as long as Emperor Wu in the True Martial Realm, who could live for two thousand years, not to mention those of the Divine Yuan Realm with legendary lifespans of five thousand years.
After sorting out his thoughts, Han Li left his bedroom with a joyful heart and went to the back garden.
Reclining in a rocking chair, Han Li pondered whether he should move away from Lingjun City quickly, to leave the contentious Leizhou area.
Nowadays, Leizhou, Huozhou, and Qingzhou were all places of strife, and no one knew when a great war might erupt. Once war started, the three regions would be shrouded in darkness, and he always had an ominous premonition that trouble might come knocking at his door.
But where should he move to?
Han Li was inclined to relocate deeper within the Daqian Empire, yet he couldn’t move to Yuanzhou. Yuanzhou, being the central hub of Daqian, brimmed with powerful Myriad Phenomena Realm cultivators, and Emperor Wu of the True Martial Realm might even be present, so it wasn’t suitable for him.
A mental image of the rough map of the Daqian Empire’s eighteen provinces surfaced in Han Li’s mind, and after much deliberation, he made a choice—he thought Yuanzhou would be a good place to go.
Leaving from Leizhou and heading deeper into the territory of Daqian, one would have to pass through Qingzhou and Jizhou before reaching Yuanzhou.
Even if a war broke out in the three states, with Jizhou acting as a buffer, Yuanzhou would be much more stable. Moreover, there was another state between Yuanzhou and the central Yuanzhou, which wouldn’t place him directly under the eyes of a group of Grandmasters in the Daqian Empire.
But how to move?
Han Li’s brow furrowed slightly—traveling across several states was perilous, especially since he had a family to think about. Even if he only took concubines, descendants, and some guards, it would be a group numbering over a thousand people.
This was a huge caravan, very easy to draw attention, especially if this group appeared weak and included a number of attractive women.
“It would be great if I had a treasure that could hold people,” sighed Han Li.
Now, his speed was incredibly fast, covering eight thousand li in a single step, comparable to the top speeds of the pinnacle experts in the Myriad Phenomena Realm, thus making him virtually unrestricted in travel, with hardly anyone in the Daqian Empire who could catch up to him.
After advancing to the peak of the Hollow Void Stage, his power of the Divine Spirit had also exponentially increased. His Spiritual Sense’s range expanded to twenty thousand li.
The typical range of a cultivator’s Spiritual Sense at the Peak of the Hollow
Realm was only around five thousand li, putting Han Li’s strength of Spiritual
Sense on par with a powerful Great GrandMaster in the Myriad Phenomena Realm. It’s worth noting that Leizhou measured only about seventy to eighty thousand li across.
If he had a treasure capable of holding people, in times of danger, he could simply pack up the Han Mansion and take them away, leading with his Spiritual Sense and leaping eight thousand li in a single step to find a safe place to settle down again.
But Han Li didn’t possess such a treasure, so he had no choice but to genuinely make the journey with his whole family in tow. With the strength he had kept hidden, anyone who dared to attack them was simply courting death.
However, before moving, some preparations still needed to be made.
His figure flashed, and he arrived at the main hall, summoning several capable descendants and instructing them on the tasks at hand.
Although Han Yongkang and the others were surprised, no one raised any questions. They immediately left to begin preparations.
Just as Han Li returned to the backyard and was about to pour himself some freshly brewed Spiritual Tea, a system prompt sounded in his mind.
After taking a sip of the tea in his cup, Han Li began to check the notification.
“Your number of descendants has reached six hundred, you have gained fifty years of cultivation, you have received five Sea-Cleaving Pills, two Gang Yuan Pills, and you have obtained the Earth-Level Lower Rank Cultivation
Technique [Five Elements Formula].”
A smile appeared on Han Li’s face as he found the rewards quite satisfactory, with cultivation and the cultivation technique being the most valuable to him.
His main cultivation technique was the strongest technique of Tianxuan
Mountain, the [Tianxuan Scripture], which had reached the level of Supreme Grade of the Earth Rank. He had no use for the Five Elements Formula, but it could be used for his concubines and the family descendants to cultivate, temporarily serving as the family’s defining practice.
An Earth-Level Lower Rank Cultivation Technique, with sufficient aptitude and resources, and without any untimely demise, could cultivate a Guru in the Hollow Void Stage, more than enough to serve as the family’s defining practice at the current stage.
Since he was moving to Yuanzhou, Han Li had already instructed someone to send a message to all the sects, telling all descendants who wished to return to the family to hurry back.
For those who didn’t wish to return, Han Li did not insist; they would be as branches left in Leizhou, and as long as they cultivated diligently or spread their lineage, they would provide support for Han Li.
Now that his cultivation had made some achievements, he was able to systematically cultivate the family’s descendants. Those with talent could now receive better training within the Han Family.
There were several hundred Yellow Rank Extreme Grade cultivation techniques, martial arts, and secret techniques in the Han Mansion, as well as some Profound Rank and Earth Rank martial arts, which were for the moment sufficient.
Once the family descendants advanced their cultivation to the Gang Yuan Realm or above, Han Li would have already acquired more and higher-rank techniques and martial arts, forming a virtuous cycle.
In tne tuture, descendants witn better aptitudes would tirst receive tam11Y training, while those with lesser talents could choose to venture out, join sects, and broaden the influence of the Han Family.
Han Li had long thought about properly cultivating the family’s descendants, intending to turn the Han Family into a true cultivation clan, but a clever woman cannot cook without rice.
In the beginning, Han Li’s cultivation was not high, and resources for cultivation like techniques, martial arts, and Spirit Stones were scarce. With the family descendants having poor aptitudes, Han Li wanted to cultivate them but couldn’t.
The situation has improved a lot now, and he is able to properly organize the family. Han Li plans to take this opportunity of moving to take charge of cultivating the family descendants in Yuanzhou.
The first batch to be cultivated would be the age-appropriate children currently in the Han Family, including some descendants who are six, seven, or even eight years old.
This included Lin Yiwu and Lin Yiyin, the pair of sisters who bore him his first descendants. Han Yonglin had a fifth-grade aptitude, and Han Yongyun had a sixth-grade aptitude; both were already eight years old.
Previously, as Han Li was considering moving, he had not sent Han Yonglin, Han Yongyun, and other eight-year-olds with talents to the sects for cultivation.
He believed that under his guidance, the two brothers’ cultivation would advance quickly, especially since they both had good aptitudes, and Han Li could provide them with an abundance of cultivation resources.
He also wanted to see how much cultivating a Guru in the Hollow Void Stage could contribute to his cultivation.
As for those family descendants currently in the sects, most had unremarkable, ninth-grade cultivation talents, with a few having eighth or seventh grade; their cultivation levels were not high, and since Han Li’s cultivation was very high, the cultivation feedback was not significant.
After securing the Five Elements Formula, Sea-Cleaving Pills, and Gang Yuan Pills, Han Li then considered the cultivation years he had saved up.
Along with the fifty years of cultivation he just gained, he now had a total of sixty-three years of cultivation years saved up, still far from the amount required to break through to the Myriad Phenomena Realm.
Han Li was not in a hurry; he had just received a reward for reaching six hundred descendants, but the number of talented descendants had already reached 156, which was very close to two hundred, and soon he would receive a substantial amount of cultivation years..
