Ch577 - Time Pagoda

Seeing the little furball left crying like this, Jiang Xu felt a bit disheartened. Although he and the little one only got along for one day, he was still a bit reluctant to part with the furry little rice dumpling.

Walking over, Liu Mufeng hugged the person from behind, he lowered his head and gently kissed his lover’s forehead.

“Mufeng, the little one’s Mother is dead, he’s so pitiful.” Seeing the little one crying, Jiang Xu felt very sorry for him.

Inexplicably, Jiang Xu remembered his own Mother, who had died in childbirth. He had never felt the warmth of his Mother, nor did he remember her appearance. In fact, when he was young, he was also like the little one, longing to have his Mother by his side. Especially when being bullied, he hoped his Mother could be by his side to protect him and give him meticulous love.

Watching his lover’s sad expression, Liu Mufeng smiled. “You like the little one? How about we have another one?”

Jiang Xu rolled his eyes helplessly. “What kind of child would I be giving birth to? It’s been so many years, how can I conceive?” Jiang Xu felt that if he could conceive, he would have been pregnant long ago, it wouldn’t have been this long.

“It’s hard to say, you’re only two thousand years old. In the immortal Realm, there are those who give birth to children even much older than you.” Liu Mufeng smiled at this.

Jiang Xu shook his head. “The fertility rate of Duals is low and we don’t conceive easily.” This was because the possibility of pregnancy was too slim. That was why, when he was pregnant with Xuanxuan, he knew it would be difficult to conceive again and he insisted on giving birth to this child. Because that was his most beloved man and his flesh and blood, perhaps the only flesh and blood they could have in their lifetime.

Liu Mufeng kissed his wife’s lips, then carried the person and returned inside. “If you like it, after we leave the secret realm, I’ll help you find a furball beast and you can keep it by your side, okay?”

“No need, I don’t really like those furry little beasts either. I just felt the little one was cute and pitiful,” Jiang Xu sighed lightly.

“Did you think of your own Mother?” Liu Mufeng asked softly as he gazed at his wife.

Jiang Xu nodded. “I don’t remember what she looks like anymore. I only remember the portrait next to my Father’s bed. Mufeng, you know, I’m not very filial.” Jiang Xu’s eyes turned red as he spoke.

“It’s not your fault, it’s just that your Mother and Son relationship was too short.” Liu Mufeng responded as he hugged his wife.

“En, I didn’t blame myself. I know that all the hardships I’ve experienced were meant for me to meet you, and you are my redemption. It was my Father and Mother who moved heaven with their deaths and sent you into my life and let you love me on their behalf.” Jiang Xu was not a greedy person. Occasionally, there might be sadness of having no parents, but he understood that having Mufeng was equivalent to having everything, and he could not expect too much.

“Fool.” Kissing his lover’s lips with heartache, Liu Mufeng tightly hugged him in his arms.

Who said his wife was a big villain who was ruthless and indiscriminately killed innocent people? His wife was so passionate, righteous, and adorable. How could he be a big villain with such love? More suitable as the protagonist than those original male and female protagonists.

It had to be said that the people and environment around a person had a very serious impact on them. Especially the influence of youth could easily affect a person’s life. If he hadn’t transmigrated through this novel, Liu Mufeng really didn’t know if his lover would have been influenced by the original story and would have gone further and further on the path of being the villain.

But now, he was not worried about this problem at all. Because with him by his side, he believed that hisXiaoXu could no longer become the despised villain.

“Opportunities can be found slowly, as long as safety is good.” Compared to opportunities, safety naturally came first and foremost.

“En, that’s true.” Jiang Xu nodded in agreement.

“Boss, look over there, there seems to be a tower over there.” Standing on Liu Mufeng’s shoulder, Jin Xiao suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

Everyone looked over, and Liu Mufeng directly used his soul power to investigate.

“It indeed seems like a tower.” Turning his head, Jiang Xu looked at his man Liu Mufeng.

“It’s the Time Pagoda, hurry up.” Excitedly, Liu Mufeng grabbed his lover’s hand and flew straight towards the direction of the tower.

The two of them flew very fast and in the blink of an eye, they arrived at the front of the tower.

This tower had seven floors, and its body was made of magnificent brownish red stone. The doors and windows were carved from the finest immortal wood, giving people a luxurious and exquisite feeling.

Looking at this seven story pagoda, Liu Mufeng couldn’t help but curl his lips and immediately walked to the door to check. Seeing a pair of stone lions guarding the door, with a script that said “one million immortal crystals a year”, Liu Mufeng turned his head to look at his lover beside him. “XiaoXu, this is an immortal place worth one million a year. Cultivating in this tower for one year is equivalent to a hundred years. Let’s pay the immortal crystals to enter the tower.”

“One million, one million per person?” Hearing this fee, Jiang Xu couldn’t help but feel a little pain.

“En, if one person pays one million, we have to pay two million.” Liu Mufeng nodded as he said.

“Alright then.” Seeing his lover so eager to go, Jiang Xu didn’t object and immediately took out two million immortal crystals and stuffed them into the mouths of the two lions on the left and right. Then the two people, along with the five demon beasts, entered the tower.

Entering the tower, Liu Mufeng checked and found that they were on the fifth floor and guessed there were already four waves of people who had entered before them.

“Mufeng, the immortal aura here is so strong.” Standing in the empty tower, Jiang Xu felt the strong immortal energy flowing in the space.

“Yes, the immortal energy here is much stronger than outside, making it a very suitable place for cultivation. The Time Pagoda only accepts seven teleportations each time it appears. After seven times, it will disappear and when it reappears, it will be in another place, hence this opportunity is very difficult to come by. So, it is our luck to encounter the Time Pagoda this time. Now it is already the fifth level, and when the sixth and seventh levels are full, other cultivators will not be able to enter.” Liu Mufeng patiently explained to his wife.

“Oh, so that’s how it is.” Jiang Xu expressed understanding.

“We are lucky enough to meet this Time Pagoda” With a smile, Jin Xiao was very happy to be able to find this time tower.

“Yeah, luckily we acquired quite a few storage rings along this time, otherwise there wouldn’t be enough immortal crystals to enter.” Speaking of this, Xiaoxiao was also very grateful.

“At this moment, this tower is a good place. Mufeng, you need to put in more effort. After you go out, try to advance to the Immortal King.” Bai Hu said as he looked at Liu Mufeng.

“En, I’ll do my best.” Liu Mufeng nodded and as he spoke, he distributed the pills he refined during this period, as well as the remaining immortal crystals in his hand to everyone.

After obtaining the required items, everyone sat down in a corner and began cultivating.

**********

One year later.

For other cultivators in the secret realm, it had only been a year, but for Liu Mufeng and his team, a hundred years had passed.

After cultivating in the Time Pagoda for a hundred years, taking the pill made from Purple Spirit Fruit, taking Immortal Stone Milk, and also taking the Immortal Mu Fruit given by the little furball, Liu Mufeng finally reached the critical point of advancement.

As soon as everyone was teleported out, Jiang Xu immediately took everyone around to inspect the area. This was a valley here, which was relatively quiet and suitable for his lover to advance.

After Liu Mufeng left the Time Pagoda, his immortal aura began to fluctuate and leap continuously. He found an open space and sat on the ground. He took out the prepared advancement pill and consumed it. After taking the pill, Liu Mufeng slowly closed his eyes and felt the screen wall of advancement becoming clearer. Running the immortal source within his body, he began to attack the screen wall.

Waving his hand, Jiang Xu took out all the immortal crystals he had hidden and also took out twenty barrels of spiritual water from the spiritual lake. All were placed next to Liu Mufeng.

Looking up, Xiaoyuan and Xiaoxiao kept looking at the sky above their heads. Watching the originally cloudless sky filling with the emerging ominous clouds rolling towards them, the two were overjoyed.

“The thunderclouds are here, Master is about to advance. That’s great. Master is about to advance!” Xiaoyuan was overjoyed.

“En, the thunderclouds have finally arrived. The Boss is going to advance to the Immortal King.” Xiaoxiao also smiled happily.

“This is a secret realm, everyone, surround Mufeng and protect him!” Bai Hu said cautiously as he looked at everyone.

“En.” Nodding, all four beasts became over three meters tall, surrounding Liu Mufeng in the middle.

As he watched more and more thunderclouds gather in the sky, the dark and oppressive tribulation clouds seemed like fierce beasts, crazily pressing towards his partner’s head one by one. Jiang Xu was both worried and happy. Happy that his Mufeng could finally advance to the Immortal King and worried that these thunder clouds were gathering more and more, he thought that this Lightning Tribulation must be exceptionally fierce. He was unsure if Mufeng could withstand it.

Feeling the trend of thunder clouds, many cultivators in the secret realm flew there to watch the excitement.

“Unexpectedly, this secret realm has only been open for six years and eight months, and someone is advancing to the level of the Immortal King.”

“Yes, they are lucky. They must have found some great opportunity.”

“Oh, why don’t I have such good luck?”

“Where can anyone have such luck?”

“En, that’s true!”

“I don’t know who is advancing? It looks like it’s a commoner cultivator.”

“Yeah, it doesn’t look like a disciple of the great sects or a child of a big family. It should be a commoner cultivator.”

“Amazing! When Young Master Ouyang arrived, he was already half-step to the Immortal King level. I thought the first person in the secret realm to advance to the Immortal King must be Young Master Ouyang. I didn’t expect there to be such another lucky person.”

“Who said it’s not the case? This time, many geniuses from the Yutian Sect have come. Several of them are also half-step in Immortal King level. Unexpectedly, these geniuses did not advance, but the first one to advance was an unknown commoner cultivator.”

“Exactly!”
