Of course, the Fireball and Light Body spells were a bit difficult to practice within the mountain. But, I couldn't practice them. For one both of these spells were my offensive and escape spells. I needed them to be proficient or even a small achievement before I was confident in using them against future spell battles.
Honestly, the effects of the [Gentle Ancestor Breath] were much better than expected. After all, the description showed that it only provided minor assistance. But I should have known it wasn't that simple. How could an Elite rank trait be just minor improvements?
If my cultivation speed before was 1 then my current cultivation speed is countless times faster. If I had to guess then my current cultivation speed was nearly 10 times faster. Of course, once I advanced to the Middle stage or Late stage of the Qi Refinement realm. This speed should gradually slow down but it would never truly vanish.
Anyways, for now, all I needed was a year or maybe even less time before I could advance to the Third layer, and by then I should have the confidence to explore the marketplace and hunt some cultivators.
My gauntlets and gacha system gave me the confidence to plan that far ahead after all.
And it was a faint awakening of my bloodline. Maybe once this elite trait advanced further I could one day awaken a spiritual body or a stronger physique.
...
A month passed by and eventually I decided to casually test the fatty's managers' daughters for spiritual roots since they indeed were beautiful and voluptuous women.
Given that they were nearly a decade and some years younger than me I expected them or even the mother to say something but no one said anything. More surprisingly, they looked visibly excited.
Which meant that the fatty probably told them about my identity. I didn't care since no one in the mortal world could kill me. With my current realm and spells. Even without my gauntlet I didn't fear Innate martial artists much less now that I had such a powerful magical artifact.
The stone glowed brightly in both of their hands and for a moment I was taken aback.
A Five Element and a Four Element spiritual root. Thankfully, I had the Basic Five Element cultivation technique otherwise the girls would have missed the chance to cultivate.
"Fatty...I mean. Lian Wei, I'll agree to make your daughters my concubines. Of course, if they can't accept this then don't bother sending them to my home." I stated easily causing Fatty's smile to twitch slightly. In the end, after I showed off the strength of my gauntlets he didn't dare to get mad.
"Hahaha! You must be joking Master Ma, how could we lowly mortals jump to your position! Of course, my daughters will become your concubines!" The fatty said with a wide smile and quickly bowed his head.
I nodded and then stood up. Walking away I left with the spirit testing stone and the Liang Family behind. I didn't care how or what the reactions of the women in the Liang family would be. But, with my gacha system, how could my Dao companion or even wife be a lowly Four and Five Element spiritual root?
Sure. I was also a Five Element Spiritual root cultivator but I had a system that automatically elevated my standing amongst cultivators.
...
A few days passed and the 2 daughters of the fatty made their way to my mansion on top of the mountain. Following them were 3 maids and 2 martial arts guards both females as well.
Liang Yue and Liang Ya were both incredibly nervous but also in awe after what their father told them about Master Ma. They didn't care about the fact that he was nearly 30 years old and much older than they were.
At nearly 19 years old both were currently going to live with their man who was 11 years older than themselves. Yet, he looked like a young man in his twenties! The fact that they could also step onto the Path of Cultivating Immortality was also a big way to force themselves to come.
"Wow~So this is going to be our new home huh?" Her sister muttered with a casual smile as if she didn't care about the fact that they would be marrying an older man.
Behind them, 2 martial guards were enviously staring at the two young and beautiful women.
"You think we have a chance?" One muttered to themselves and the other laughed.
"Jump his bed and maybe he'll test you and see if you have talent," The other more mature-looking woman said with a grin.
Laughter erupted and moments later they quickly entered the mansion.
The maids worked hard and quickly began cleaning the mansion and placing a variety of items. Be it pots and pans or some clothing and bedding.
Of course, all maids and the two martial artists would stay on one side of the mansion and in 2 rooms. It was also because of this that some rooms were much larger and could fit in more people.
Meanwhile, both Liang Yue and Ya would live in the master bedroom.
"Husband" Both young women bowed slightly as they witnessed their husband sitting down in a larger side room with his eyes closed.
...
An hour passed by and I finally completed another session of cultivation. Opening my eyes I found myself staring at 4 large and round orbs. Of course, I slowly stood up and remembered that today was the day that my women would arrive.
Dao companion
Wife
Comcubine
Mistress
Companion
Countless ways to call a woman who would join the Ma family and countless different ways to treat them. If I had a wife or a Dao companion they should call me 'Master' or 'Lord'. But given that I didn't have one I just casually decided to allow them to call me 'husband'.
"You two will serve me tonight, once you bear me 2 children I shall bestow upon you my cultivation technique. During this time all you have to do is learn to read and write. As well as take care of my future children" I stated easily and both girls nodded their heads.
"Yes, husband!"
I nodded my head and glanced out of the window. Watching the sun slowly begin falling I smiled. Of course, by now I had already allowed my other 2 concubines to live with me. Sadly, neither of them didn't have a spiritual root, and thus although they would also bear my children. It would probably be difficult to give me a child with spiritual roots.
"Right. You should go meet my other concubines, sadly they don't have spiritual roots. They are currently asleep in the second room near us" I pointed towards the other room and watched as they blushed and quickly left the room in a hurry.
I laughed since I did have some fun with my older MILF concubines. Now that I wasn't worried about having children because of the gacha system.
I naturally had to impregnate my beautiful concubines. Even if the children were born without spiritual roots, it's still a way to expand my Ma family lineage. And I had to expand it sooner or later. Otherwise, the plans I had to create a cultivation family would fall at the first step.
...
A week passed by and I stared at the sky, for a moment I really did just want to become a casual Ancestral figure of the Ma Family. But in the end, I was the only suitable cultivator within the family and I needed resources to advance.
My Multiversal Chaos gacha system also needed me to achieve feats. Hence, with the help of the fatty and his connections. I decided to begin planning the hunting phase where I would go out and hunt some loose cultivators still in the mortal world.
Why would I dare do something like this? It was all because of my [Luck] trait at the Elite rank. With this even if I wasn't lucky and I encountered a stronger cultivator I should at least have the chance to escape from their hands.
Fatty finally found some clues to a few loose cultivators wandering around or generally staying within some families. Similar to what I was doing with him and a few other families within the nearby towns and villages.
By now my spells were a bit stronger but those weren't what I was going to rely on.
Staring at my gauntlets I smiled. Truly, this 'magical artifact' had to be at the very least a Top-level magical artifact or even an inferior rank spiritual artifact. And one that only Foundation Establishment cultivators could use.
Thankfully, due to my [Good Luck] trait, the fatty realized that a suspected cultivator was living near the town. Although it was considered near it was still about 3 days away and by then he would have already left.
Hopefully, if my luck held out he would advance to the nearby town given the various mountains and rivers nearby.
"Continue practicing some spells...it should be good enough even if I rely on my magical artifact" I muttered to myself as I stood up from the hidden stone house that was now a part of my mansion.
...
A week quietly passed by and I spent most of this time working hard at impregnating my women. After all, although my mortal concubines couldn't bear me any children with spiritual roots. I didn't need too many cultivators at the moment.
I didn't even have enough cultivation resources how would I give some to my children who are basically going to be my free labor in the future? I needed both mortals and cultivators. Mortals because they have children faster and cultivators because my future resources could not just be given to me right?
Anyway, during this week I basically spent it cultivating my spells. Sadly, the status screen could not make it to the so-called 'Heaven rewards diligence' and I had to actually learn and understand if I wanted to make progress. Thankfully the status screen gave me a feeling that once proven forever proven. Meaning that even if I take years off from a spell, I would always remain as proficient on that spell as I was when I first learned the spell.
This was just a minor benefit that the Multiversal Chaos gacha gave me and I was thankful.
...
"Don't worry, I'm very confident in my magical artifact" I calmly stated as the Fatty and a few other powerful men and women in the mortal world were currently worrying over the loose cultivator that would arrive within a day.
Honestly, with my gauntlets, I feared no one in the Middle stage of the Qi Refinement realm much less an Early stage like what the loose cultivator was estimated to be.
"Yes, yes but do you need help? Although finding some Innate martial artists is difficult we could pay for some weaker ones to join in" One of the older men stated with a smile that looked incredibly forced. After all, he looked to be 50 years old and was probably hanging on because he practiced some Longevity martial arts.
And now here he was taking orders from a young man who looked to be in his twenties!
I sighed in my mind at the fact that these people really didn't understand anything about the cultivation world.
"If they aren't in the Innate realm then they won't he of much help, the spells of cultivators are much more powerful then anything an Innate martial artist could achieve with techniques"
With that I explained that I had confidence and that I would leaving in an hour to rush and meet up with the loose cultivator.
I didn't want this fat sheep to escape before he entered the town...
