Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 1683: Celestial Soul Ascension Pill

*Boom*

Zhang Fei [4] breathed a sigh of relief after the final explosion. She withdrew her fire qi, opened the lid of the Heaven Creation Furnace, and checked the five pills inside.

At the same time, Zhang Xiaolong [3] and Feltia [2] had also finished refining their pills. They also checked the pills inside their furnaces, finding five each. They cleaned their furnaces and prepared another batch of ingredients to concoct the pills, as they had so many women by their side, and they also had to help those closest to them.

"Phew," Zhang Fei [4] took the pills. "After repeated failures, I finally succeeded in concocting the Celestial Soul Ascension Pill. I hope the effects of this pill can help my soul power break through to the immortal soul level."

Zhang Fei [4] called Shang Xueli and Yue Qianrou, who were training at the training ground. After the two women arrived, he gave them two pills and asked them to swallow them. "Tell me if there are any changes in the strength of your souls later."

Shang Xueli and Yue Qianrou immediately sat cross-legged in front of Zhang Fei [4], closed their eyes, and swallowed the pills directly. He looked at the two women with a look full of expectation, but he himself was still doubtful whether the pill would be able to help him or not, especially since Feng Yao believed that the pills would not be of much use to him.

A few minutes later, Shang Xueli and Yue Qianrou could feel their souls being enveloped by a heavenly aura. Their souls were undergoing refinement, expansion, and purification simultaneously, making them feel slightly uncomfortable. Faint visions of the heavens and Dao patterns appear in their minds, guiding the soul toward a higher state of existence.

*Boom*

An hour later, Zhang Fei [4] raised an eyebrow as a shockwave shot out from Shang Xueli’s body. Compared to Yue Qianrou, she was far weaker in every way, including her soul power. Before swallowing the pill, her soul power was only at the early stage of the saint soul level due to her long life as a puppet, which significantly slowed her progress in all areas.

Within a few minutes, Shang Xueli’s soul power broke through and reached the middle stage of the saint soul level, but it didn’t stop, and her soul power continued to increase.

’The effect of the pill is extraordinary for Shang Xueli because her soul level is only at the saint level.’ Zhang Fei [4] looked at Yue Qianrou; he could feel that his soul power was constantly fluctuating, convincing him that her soul power would also break through soon. ’Qianrou’s soul power is at the perfection of the venerate soul level, and she will enter the divine soul level after this breakthrough.’

After waiting for a few hours, Shang Xueli’s soul power stopped breaking through, and she reached the early stage of the venerate soul level.

At the same time, Yue Qianrou also completed her soul breakthrough, and the result matched Zhang Fei [4]’s previous guess, as she reached the early stage of the divine soul level. ’Her soul power only broke through one stage, huh? Although the result isn’t significant, it will be of great help to her.’

Yue Qianrou was the first to open her eyes and looked at Zhang Fei [4] with awe. "Sigh! An alchemy god like you is indeed different, husband. My soul power has been stuck for so long that I can’t even remember it anymore, but today it finally broke through again, and I feel that it won’t be difficult to break through in the future."

"Haha," Zhang Fei [4] laughed. "If you successfully learn the Lotus Ascension Art and form the black lotus within your soul, your soul power will definitely become stronger, and you won’t have any difficulty breaking through."

Yue Qianrou pursed her lips upon hearing that. Since she became Zhang Fei [4]’s woman, she has been trying to form the black lotus, but her efforts always end in vain because she doesn’t yet have an unwavering heart and absolute trust in him. Unlike her, her big sister, Yue Xuelian, had succeeded in forming the black lotus in her soul because her feelings for him were too deep. "Can I swallow the pill again, husband?"

"No," Zhang Fei [4] shook his head. "The pill can only be consumed once in a lifetime, so you’ll have to work hard to break through to the next stage, and I’ll help you with that."

"Alright." Yue Qianrou stood up and walked away. "I’ll continue my training, husband. I’m far behind you and big sister, so I want to catch up with you two."

[Master, as Feng Yao said before, the Celestial Soul Ascension Pill cannot help you break through to the immortal soul level. However, it can still strengthen your soul even further, and your soul world will be much stronger because of it.]

Zhang Fei [4] agreed with Mei because his soul power was the foundation of his soul world, and it would strengthen as his soul strengthened. He looked at Shang Xueli, who had just opened her eyes. "How do you feel after your soul level breaks through several stages at once?"

"I feel light and great." Shang Xueli was truly grateful to Zhang Fei [4]. About six years ago, he saved her from her hellish life, and he gave her many valuable opportunities since then. All of this made her slowly fall in love with him, but unfortunately, he always pushed her aside because of her father. "You’ve given me so many opportunities, and I don’t know how I should repay you."

Zhang Fei [4] smiled at that. "If you want to repay me, you must become a great leader for your Asura Demon Race after I defeat your father in the future, and you must lead them to become a better race."

"Do you really want to fight with my father?"

"Yes." Zhang Fei [4] seriously nodded. "There are some matters I must settle, and they are related to your father, so I have no choice but to fight him."

"Are you going to kill my father?"

"Do you believe I can kill your father?"

"I do." Shang Xueli nodded. "I’ve been living in this place since you freed me from that hell, and I’ve seen many things about you with my own eyes over the past years. Other demons might insult you if you said you could kill my father, but I have no doubt in my heart that you could kill him."

"Will you hate me if I kill your father in the future?"

"I don’t know." Shang Xueli was in a dilemma about that. Zhang Fei [4] had saved her and given her so many precious opportunities, and she had also long been in love with him. On the other hand, Shang Zhanluo was her father, and she would never exist without him, so she sincerely hoped that they wouldn’t kill each other. "Will you stop if I ask you not to kill my father?"

"I don’t have an answer for you, and the outcome of our fight depends on your father. If he wants to kill me, I won’t stay silent, and I will kill him first. If your father can accept his defeat to me later, then no one will die then."

"I understand." Shang Xueli nodded in understanding. "I’ll continue my training now, so you can continue with your alchemy."

Zhang Fei [4] looked at Shang Xueli, who was walking away before sighing softly. He cleaned the remnants of the previous alchemy from his furnace, and he started concocting pills again afterward.

Inside the void, Zhang Fei took out some Celestial Soul Ascension Pills and handed them to Luo Yunxiao and the others.

Luo Yunxiao, Tianshi Shengjie, Helian Xun’er, Nalan Wangzi, Qing Qiu’er, and You Feiling immediately sat cross-legged and swallowed the pills.

Zhang Fei wanted to give them to Feng Yao and Huo Ling, but they refused. "These pills are useless to us, so you can give them to the others, husband."

"That’s true, husband," Huo Ling spoke. "I am the primordial flame, and my master’s soul is a primordial soul, so these pills will not be of any use to us."

Zhang Fei nodded in understanding and kept one pill. "This pill won’t be able to help me break through to the immortal soul level, but at least it can strengthen my soul even more, which will also have an effect on my soul world."

"Yes," Feng Yao nodded. "Your soul world will become even more solid with the help of this pill, so you should swallow it now, and you can check your soul world afterward."

Zhang Fei closed his eyes and swallowed the pill directly. He used his qi to dissolve and spread it throughout his body to speed up the process.

Huo Ling observed Zhang Fei and asked her master, "Is there a chance for our husband’s soul power to break through to the immortal soul level, Master?"

"Why must you ask a question you already know the answer to, Ling’er?" Huo Ling looked at Feng Yao in confusion. "Have you forgotten that Hu Tianlang is a primordial being? When our husband obtains all his souls and evolves into the ten-tailed fox in the future, his soul power will break through to the immortal soul level, and he will never die like us because his soul will already be immortal by then."

"Oh! That’s right!" Huo Ling exclaimed happily. "Do you think he will become completely immortal, Master?"

Feng Yao nodded. "When his physical cultivation breaks through to the immortal flesh stage, he will become a true immortal. Unfortunately, it won’t be easy for him to break through to that stage, and I haven’t found a solution to help him yet."
