Having glanced at the ancestral elder Han Li, he closed the view, now having a rough idea in mind.

Among the last batch of one hundred new descendants, the majority had aptitudes because most of their parents possessed aptitudes as well.

From eight hundred to nine hundred, there would be far fewer descendants with aptitudes in this batch of one hundred, but it should be enough to bring the total number of descendants with aptitude to three hundred.

The current progress was about what he had anticipated; in about another year, he should have nine hundred descendants and three hundred of them with aptitudes.

Han Li noticed that the ratio of total descendants to those with aptitudes had increased, which was likely related to himself and the talents of the wives and concubines his descendants had married in recent years.

When two individuals without aptitudes have a child, the likelihood of that offspring having an aptitude is very small, such is the state of endless mortals. However, due to their large base, they still provided a substantial number of cultivators to the Cultivation Realm.

If one of the parents has an aptitude, the likelihood of their offspring having an aptitude increases, though the exact increase is hard to say, as it varies from person to person. Maybe the first offspring would mutate into a Third Grade aptitude.

However, such cases are generally reincarnations of the mighty or those born with a vast destiny, also known as “children of fortune”?

The probability of two descendants with aptitudes having a child with aptitudes is very high, and the higher the aptitude and cultivation level, the greater the probability. Yet, it is still possible to have offspring without any aptitudes, and the Cultivation Realm has many such examples.

A Great Grandmaster of the Myriad Phenomena Realm and a God Refining Realm female cultivator had a third child who lacked any aptitude.

“One year later, nine hundred descendants, three hundred with aptitudes, two years later, a thousand descendants…”

Han Li felt that in at most three or four years, he would have accumulated enough cultivation to break through to the True Martial Realm, and by then, his power would improve in all aspects.

Moreover, during this process, he might also gain some high-level martial techniques and powerful weapons… steadily increasing his strength.

“Your ancestor me, I’m on the path to greatness,” he mused.

The thought of such rapid growth in the number of his descendants brought a smile to Han Li’s face.

Suddenly, his pupils contracted sharply as he witnessed a myriad of phenomena toward Leizhou, with a divine light piercing the sky. With his vision, standing atop a ten-thousand-meter peak, he could just make it out despite being more than two million miles away.

“It’s finally here!” Han Li caught his breath, then quickly let it go.

He blinked, feeling slightly embarrassed, “It’s not my opportunity, nor do I intend to compete for it. What am I looking forward to?”

Han Li wondered if he was getting carried away. After capturing Lu Tianxiang and abducting Jiang Baiye, he had a considerable longing for such events.

Upon seeing the dragon girl, Han Li’s first thought was not “how high is her cultivation, or how powerful was she in her past life,” but “how great would it be to have the dragon girl as my Dao companion at home. A reincarnation of a Saint, her aptitude must be at least First Grade, right?”

This was also a shortcut; as long as these females with high aptitudes and cultivation bore him offspring, there was a high probability they would inherit their original talents.

The higher the child’s aptitude, not only could he receive new grade rewards, but also a large amount of aptitude feedback.

Now, his Fourth Grade aptitude was only at 11%, and typically, it would be nearly impossible to advance to Third Grade in a short period.

An offspring of Fourth Grade aptitude could only increase his own aptitude by one-tenth, while an offspring with Third Grade aptitude could increase it by one-third.

If it was below Fourth Grade, the increase would be even less, requiring accumulation in quantity, and there were very few cherished wives and beautiful concubines capable of producing offspring above Fifth Grade, such as Lu Tianxiang, Jiang Baiye, Lin Yiwu, and Lin Yiyin, among others.

He and Jiang Baiye both had Fourth Grade aptitude, and four to five months later when Jiang Baiye’s child would be born, it was highly likely to also be Fourth Grade, enhancing the aptitude by one-tenth.

However, if he could capture a True Martial Realm female cultivator, or the dragon girl, so long as they bore Han Li offspring, the aptitude would generally be high, with Third Grade, Second Grade, or even First Grade being possible.

If he could capture the dragon girl and she bore a child, he would immediately advance to Third Grade with a Second Grade aptitude, and if it was a First Grade aptitude, he might even leap straight to Second Grade. It would be exhilarating.

Reaching Third Grade or Second Grade aptitude would significantly reduce the cultivation needed to advance to True Martial Realm, and then he’d truly soar to new heights.

Of course, Han Li was only musing. He felt the chances of capturing the dragon girl to be his Dao companion were slim, given her formidable strength.

Leizhou’s combat ability was such that he only dared to weigh his chances, and in a direct confrontation, he felt somewhat outmatched: his defense was too weak, while the Dragon Girl’s attacks were too powerful, and her speed was not necessarily slower than his.

As a reincarnation of a Saint, the Dragon Girl had a profound foundation and undoubtedly held numerous trump cards; at her peak state, Leizhou could only “watch from a safe distance without defiling”.

If, unluckily, the Dragon Girl were injured, and the injuries were quite severe, leading to a significant decrease in her strength, only then would Leizhou consider taking action.

Leizhou felt that the current priority was to see if there were any female cultivators among those fighting for the Sacred Dragon Dragon Ball in the True Martial Realm. His first target was to take advantage of the situation and capture a True Martial Realm female cultivator; as for the Dragon Girl, he would play it by ear, and if there was no opportunity, he absolutely must not be reckless.

Leizhou, above the ninth heaven.

After meticulously investigating for several months, the Dragon Girl finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Within a radius of millions of miles, all the hidden True Martial Realm cultivators had been discovered by the Dragon Girl; they were basically all in the early stages of the True Martial Realm, with no old monsters among them.

The number of True Martial Realm cultivators in the Xuan Domain was already few, and those who had cultivated to the late stages or the peak of the True Martial Realm were even rarer—only two or three individuals, and Long Yue was aware of all of them, without having noticed their presence.

As for those from outside domains, as long as they weren’t from a Sacred Land, even if they were at the late stages or peak of the True Martial Realm, it was very difficult for them to know about the emergence of her Dragon Ball.

Those True Martial Realm early stage Emperors Wu were not fools; they would not spread the news recklessly. Otherwise, once the late-stage or peak True Martial Realm Emperors Wu came, they would have no chance to compete, the gap in strength was too big, not even a chance to muddy the waters.

Long Yue had also confirmed that no Divine Yuan Realm War Emperors were lurking around; there are so few in the Qianyuan Divine Province, and Long Yue specifically paid attention to their whereabouts, none having come to the Xuan Domain.

That suspiciously Divine Yuan Realm-level ancestor of the Ancient Empire had not emerged from seclusion and was unlikely to intervene rashly anymore.

During this time, Long Yue had also been pondering why that Great Saint had disposed of her in such a way; without the Great Saint sparing her life, she would have had no chance for reincarnation and rebirth.

The Great Saint is a term of respect for cultivators at the peak of the Saint Abyss Realm; their power reaches the heavens and penetrates the earth, infinite in their might.

Long Yue, at that time, had only recently advanced to the Saint Abyss Realm and had yet to fully grasp the mysteries of this realm, still cultivating some powerful Saint Abyss Realm martial techniques.

In the Cultivation Realm, cultivation techniques, martial techniques, and weapons are classified into Yellow Rank, Profound Rank, Earth Rank, and Heaven Rank, and each rank is further divided into Lower Grade, Mid-Grade, Top Grade, and Supreme Grade.

Earth-Level Lower Rank and Mid-Grade correspond to the Hollow Void Stage, Earth-Level Top Grade and Supreme Grade correspond to the Myriad Phenomena Realm, Heaven Rank Lower Grade and Mid-Grade correspond to the True Martial Realm, and Heaven Rank Top Grade and Supreme Grade correspond to the Divine Yuan Realm.

After the ancient times, very few cultivators knew that above the Heaven Rank there was the Divine Rank. Cultivation techniques that could be called divine arts, martial techniques known as divine techniques, weapons referred to as Divine Weapons, as well as Divine Medicine, Divine Pills, and so on.

Divine Rank is also divided into Lower Grade, Mid-Grade, Top Grade, and Supreme Grade, with Divine Rank Lower Grade and Mid-Grade corresponding to the Tongxuan Realm, and Divine Rank Top Grade and Supreme Grade corresponding to the Saint Abyss Realm.

Long Yue had mastered quite a few Divine Rank Mid- and Lower Grade martial techniques, and she had also cultivated two or three Divine Rank Top Grade techniques, though her mastery was not deep.

Now, only at the third layer of the True Martial Realm, she couldn’t even use the Divine Rank Top Grade techniques, let alone many of the Divine Rank Mid- and Lower Grade ones.

Divine Rank martial techniques consumed a vast amount of energy, and though the True Martial Realm’s True Yuan was as vast as the sea, it could only sustain a few moves.

However, Long Yue felt that it was enough; even if she could only utilize the Divine Rank Lower Grade martial techniques, they could elevate her combat ability to an extremely high level.

After reincarnation, she had the cultivation experience from her previous life, and she progressed rapidly in re-cultivating some Divine Rank martial techniques to perfection, to keep as trump cards.

“Huff~”

After one final sweep of the area, Long Yue exhaled, her figure flashed, and she instantly appeared above Yingyuan Mountain. With delicate fingers forming seals, she executed several intricate and mysterious incantations, opening the Sacred Dragon Secret Realm.

PS: I suddenly discovered that a dark fantasy god I really liked, ‘Nì Cāng Tiān’, has returned. His Killing Gods was a classic, which I used to stay up late to read.

Although Nì Dà does not know me, I still want to promote his book for him; his new book “Purgatory Tribulation” is approaching a hundred thousand words. Brothers who like Killing Gods, enjoy the Spirit Realm, and like Nì Dà, can go and support him.

Lastly, I hope Nì Dà’s new book explodes in popularity, returning him to his godly status, and reaching the pinnacle of platinum certification.
