Concubines Lead to Strength: The Path to Immortality Begins with Taking a Spouse

"What are you thinking about?"

Seeing her in a daze, Gu Changge couldn't help but curiously ask.

"Oh, nothing. I was just thinking that now I've broken through to the Eighth Grade Heavenly Gate Realm, it's about time to challenge for the position of Saint Heir!"

Dongfang Mingyue slightly shook her head, not voicing her inner shock and perspective on the future, but looked passionately at the various peaks of the Saints!

Challenging the Saint Peak had always been her goal.

Originally, she intended to attempt the challenge at the Ninth Saint Son Peak when she reached the Seventh Grade Infinite Realm, but she hadn't expected her husband's sudden appearance to reshuffle the Saint Peaks, making the Ninth Saint Son Peak already at the Eighth Grade Heavenly Gate Realm.

So she had suppressed this matter until now!

"Oh?"

"Then, my dear wife, which Saint Son Peak do you plan to challenge?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Changge was also intrigued.

Even the Sword Sect disciples who were watching the tribulation just recovered from the shock of Saint Gu refining the Heavenly Tribulation and heard this conversation!

"Is Saint Gu's Daoist Companion also going to challenge the Saint Peak?"

"Speaking of which, back then, Saint Gu challenged with a Seventh Grade Infinite Realm..."

"This Little Sword Immortal Dongfang has already reached the Eighth Grade Heavenly Gate Realm, I wonder which peak's Saint Heir she will challenge!"

Under everyone's expectant gaze, they saw Dongfang Mingyue directly pointing her sword at the Fourth Saint Son Peak!

"If I am to challenge, I might as well go big!"

Dongfang Mingyue's eyes concealed her Sword Intent, yet she boldly declared the Fourth Saint Son Peak!

Back then, Gu Changge was from the Fourth Saint Son Peak, and she also wanted to challenge the same!

With Gu Changge ascending to the top of the Saint Peak, the current Fourth Saint Son Peak had naturally been succeeded by Xu Qiufeng once again.

"Tsk..."

Gu Changge clicked his tongue slightly at the news, feeling a bit sorry for this Saint Xu, who seemed somewhat unlucky.

Beyond, the Third Peak's Saintess was at the Sage Realm, putting this Fourth Peak's Saint in a very awkward position.

Very quickly, aside from the two of them, a throng of onlookers from Sword Sect soon gathered before the Fourth Saint Son Peak.

Xu Qiufeng, the Sword Sect's Fourth Saint Son, had been using his Divine Sense to observe the scene of the Heavenly Tribulation refining, so he wasn't at all surprised by everyone's arrival.

He was already standing atop the Saint Peak waiting.

Seeing that familiar figure, Xu Qiufeng couldn't help but twitch at his mouth corners twice.

Back then, he was effortlessly defeated by this guy, and now why would even his Daoist Companion directly challenge him?

"Now I have reached Ninth Grade Perfection, just half a step away from the Sage Realm."

"Junior Sister Dongfang, perhaps reconsider..."

Facing the early Eighth Grade Heavenly Gate Realm Dongfang Mingyue, Xu Qiufeng sighed and said.

Gu Changge's might, he couldn't deny, even back then, spanning two Great Realms, he could easily suppress himself.

But Dongfang Mingyue was not that monster, Gu Changge.

"No need to consider, if I, this Sword Immortal, were to lose today, it would simply mean I'm not skilled enough. I will just retreat and cultivate for a few more years."

Dongfang Mingyue, cradling the Heavenly Rank Top Grade Moon Bright Sword gifted by her husband, said calmly.

Hearing this, Xu Qiufeng first looked towards Gu Changge.

Seeing Gu Changge nod slightly, he then mused, "Very well, as you wish."

Currently, this Saint Gu is the head of the Sword Sect's Saint Son, having broken through to the Sage Realm, his true strength might even rival a True Monarch Realm Great Power!

Dongfang Mingyue being his Daoist Companion, whether to fight or not was still up to this Saint Gu.

If he felt that defeating his Daoist Companion was disrespectful, then life would be difficult in the future!

Soon, two figures had already ascended into the air above the Ten Evil Arena.

Gu Changge was also there for the first time in the so-called viewing seat, curiously looking around.

Many Sword Sect disciples wanted to be closer to him but were respectfully keeping a proper distance.

Especially some female disciples almost formed a circle at a distance of ten zhang, their eyes not even lingering on the arena but staying fervently on him, hoping this Saint Gu would glance at them!

Above the arena, as the Elder looked towards Gu Changge, receiving his nod, only then did he announce the start!

Both figures instantly vanished from their spots, and sharp Sword Light, like a storm, continuously erupted!

For a while, the fight was at a stalemate.

Xu Qiufeng felt internally shocked, not only was Gu Changge strong, it seemed even his Daoist Companion Dongfang Mingyue could withstand him at the early Eighth Grade Heavenly Gate Realm!

Could it be that he was too weak!?

Fortunately, even after dozens of exchanges, he hadn't shown any weakness.

But he also had doubts, earlier seeing Dongfang Mingyue wielding a Heavenly Rank Top Grade Flying Sword, why was she now using a Low Grade Heavenly Rank Flying Sword, did she underestimate him or was it intentional water release?

"Senior Brother Gu seems very confident?"

Suddenly, two figures appeared beside Gu Changge, they were the current Saint Heir and Saintess of the Second Peak and Third Peak, now also a Daoist Couple under the sect's arrangement.

Looking at Gu Changge's calm demeanor, the two were somewhat curious.

"Naturally."

"My wife hasn't even begun to exert herself yet."

Gu Changge smiled gently, not turning to look at the two.

Watching the relentless fight on the arena, he shook his head slightly.

His wife already had a sure win.

As time passed, under the continuous Divine Skills, both parties' Spiritual Energy were running low.

It was simply a matter of who could last longer.

Before long...

Both parties stopped, Xu Qiufeng cupped his hands and said, "Junior Sister Dongfang, you've let me win."

"Your Spiritual Energy can't support much longer, better concede gracefully."

Though victorious, he was still astounded in his heart, Dongfang Mingyue at only the early Eighth Grade Heavenly Gate Realm pushed him this far, with only about twenty percent of his Spiritual Energy left!

Fortunately, he still won!

However, as his words concluded, he saw Dongfang Mingyue had no intention of admitting defeat, but instead smiled lightly, sitting with crossed legs to begin her Cultivation Technique to absorb Spiritual Energy.

This action left everyone stunned.

So blatant?

Unwilling to concede? Planning to continue the fight?

"Junior Sister..." Xu Qiufeng was about to say something when a voice sounded from behind: "Saint Xu, you spoke too soon."

Startled, he turned around, seeing a figure removing a breath concealment, appearing from the void.

It was Dongfang Mingyue holding the Heavenly Rank Top Grade Flying Sword!

Yet looking back, there was still a Dongfang Mingyue holding a Low Grade Heavenly Rank Flying Sword, meditating!!!

"This is!?"

"Innate Divine Ability!?"

"When!?"

Xu Qiufeng's eyes widened, incredulous.

"Since the moment of engagement, I, this Sword Immortal, had already used my Divine Skills, only Saint Xu didn't notice."

Dongfang Mingyue, holding the Flying Sword, slightly smiled.

But even the presiding Elder of the Sage Realm on the platform was full of shock, having not noticed this earlier!

All this results from Gu Changge's Divine Concealment Secret Technique, and simultaneously, upon reaching the Saint Body Talent, she awakened a second Innate Divine Ability, allowing her to hide her figure within the void.

It was merely a chance to try it back then.

Unexpectedly, it worked quite well, fighting for so long without the opponent realizing her clone.

Not exactly a clone, as both bodies could be considered the main body, with neither affected by the other's demise, only losing thirty percent of their strength.

"..."

"No more fighting, I concede."

Xu Qiufeng hesitated for a moment, resolutely sheathing his Flying Sword, cupping his hands towards the Elder.

How can this be played!

Having a monster like Saint Gu was already enough, but even his Daoist Companion was so heaven-defying?

"This..."

"Dongfang Mingyue wins, and as of today, is the master of the Fourth Saint Son Peak!"

The Elder, after recovering from the shock, announced the result.

The observing disciples were all left open-mouthed.

Innate Divine Ability, something that the Talent of Dao Body might grasp!

Previously, no one had heard of this Little Sword Immortal Dongfang possessing such talent, otherwise, how could the Dongfang Family have kept it hidden, they'd have nurtured her long ago!

Evidently, all this had to do with Saint Gu!

But how he did it, no one could tell!

"No wonder Saint Gu remained so calm..."

Standing behind Gu Changge, the two fell silent for a moment, before speaking quietly.

Not only is he a monster himself, but he also seems capable of nurturing monsters!?
