"As I was saying—"
Hu Mei Er's lips sealed his shut again. She kept kissing him the moment she regained some strength. Her body, still naked, settled comfortably over his lap. Her arms looped around his neck as she held onto him obsessively. Hu Mei Er was charming and beautiful. However, the current Hu Mei Er came across as more lovely and gentle than bewitching and sultry once she used Alluring Minx Set to refine her body.
"—you need to—"
She cut him off again after catching her breath, kissing him lovingly.
Lo Jik rolled his eyes and kissed back as he gently helped her down. She wouldn't stop until she got what she wanted and he knew that much. It was just more efficient to help recalibrate Hu Mei Er and break into her new body as one would say it… and the constant kissing did have wonders on his body, prompting an eager erection that wouldn't go down without some effort from her side.
<<<>>>
"Hah… hah…" Disheveled yet utterly blissful, Hu Mei Er rested her head on Lo Jik's chest and listened obediently.
"As I was saying," Lo Jik held her closer. "I just became a gu immortal and it's easier for me to keep you hidden from Spirit Affinity House. You're my closest confidante, Mei Er."
He looked at her and leaned his head down to peck her forehead.
"I don't want to let you down. I discovered this incomplete luck path inheritance and want you to cultivate it. Helping you reach rank 5 will be quite easy. Furthermore, I will use other methods on you to awaken your second aperture." Lo Jik explained several things slowly. While initially surprised by the things Lo Jik revealed, she accepted it all as a matter-of-fact and did not pester him with questions.
After all, Hu Mei Er would rather pester and annoy Lo Jik with bodily affection until he pinned her down and showed the difference between a mortal and gu immortal!
Hu Mei Er had become extremely crucial to Lo Jik the moment he understood the workings of his evolved trait. She was one woman who could engage in all kinds of sexual acts without feeling slighted or bored not only because she was a slut like him but also that Hu Mei Er once tried to control Lo Jik using a killer move which failed and turned her into Lo Jik's plaything instead.
Despite Lo Jik's distaste against using methods of mind control to engage in sexual activities, he grew accustomed to Hu Mei Er because this result was her doing.
But this was a great situation. Once Hu Mei Er's cultivation rose, she could assist Lo Jik in return through several rewards. Best case scenario—she also advances to gu immortal, letting Lo Jik accumulate platinum achievements significantly easily! And Lo Jik was quite confident in achieving this objective.
First, Lo Jik wanted Hu Mei Er to cultivate luck path. With his own luck path great grandmaster attainment, it increased Lo Jik's chance of obtaining more rare luck path materials. Hopefully, the rumors about Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's true inheritance would be stemmed in reality, allowing his trait to uncover them if they were still waiting to be inherited. Second, with Second Aperture Immortal Gu and Extreme Aptitude Gu, Lo Jik could create a true beast of cultivation through Hu Mei Er.
There were ten different extreme aptitudes. Lo Jik possessed Great Strength True Martial Physique, increasing his proficiency and foundation in strength path. Bai Ning Bing had Northern Dark Ice Soul physique. First Gen Gu Yue once boasted to have modified the entire gu yue bloodline to make it easier for Desolate Ancient Moon Physique to appear. As for Hu Mei Er, one of the best options was the Carefree Wisdom Heart Physique.
Being a human path great grandmaster, however, Lo Jik's thoughts inadvertently traveled in another direction.
Ren Zu not only created the human race but also these ten extreme physiques. The linage of these ten extreme physiques could be traced back to the earliest era of humanity and they did not emerge out of nowhere.
Human creation… it was another facet of human path. How could Lo Jik not have the ambition of trying to recreate this stunning achievement after he refined Meaning and Self Chant Gu Worms? If there could be an extreme physique for strength path then why not luck, painting, human, and dream paths?
Unfortunately, Lo Jik was not equipped with necessary gu worms to even begin such research. Instead, he was focused on his current cultivation due to certain terrifying reasons. All Lo Jik wished to achieve was find a way of continuing his cultivation despite Divine Concealment covering his soul.
As for Hu Mei Er, the couple soon cleaned up and Lo Jik personally taught her several things about luck path. He sent her to his human path blessed land after promising to meet her again within a few hours for the umpteenth time.
"O-oh!" Hu Mei Er gasped as she saw a world filled with countless Lo Jik. "Oh… my~!" She fell unconscious on her back with a drooling grin as other clones glanced at her before continuing their tasks.
<<<>>>
'Seven days in this public blessed land means three-and-a-half days in the main continent. That's about 105 days in my human path blessed land. But I can't wait the entire time. Hu Mei Er's cultivation needs to hit rank 5 within a month… thankfully, I prepared enough cultivation and supporting gu worms. As for luck path, I possess Shape Luck, Luck Inspection, Peach Blossom Luck, Dog Shit Luck, Reduce Luck, Luck Cloud, and Fortune Luck from successfully refining the luck path clone. There's also human path Prosperity Attracts Fortune, which attracted eight different gu worms with luck path effects I have yet to identify.'
Lo Jik cupped his chin thoughtfully. He observed a lone clone inside his human path blessed land. The clone continuously rolled a pair of dice on the ground and noted the results.
This was rank 5 Lucky Gambler Gu.
It was a human path clone meant to delve into the mystical luck path. In reality, Lo Jik was already making great progress in clones of other paths too, such as painting, theft, and pill paths. He prioritized these paths due to their rarity and greater potential gains. However, he eventually planned to refine at least one clone of each path and then focus on certain combination of paths.
Earlier, one of his clones thought about refining a clone gu sharing the effects of wisdom, refinement, and formation paths. However, this was significantly more complicated. Lo Jik already deduced one such recipe. However, such clones were unable to share any meaningful recipes once refined unlike the current clones fashioned after Dreamer Gu. Furthermore, such a clone would be less about increasing the understanding of wisdom, formation, and refinement paths and more about completing the task of deducing gu recipes. Even if there is the influence of formation and refinement path in this clone gu worm, Lo Jik had the intuition even before refining this one that this clone would likely not use formation and refinement gu worms at all!
A clone that focused on deducing recipes sounded good on paper until one realized that such deductions largely relied on one's attainment. In reality, all of Lo Jik's clone could deduce any number of recipes due to shared attainment. They were as proficient as Lo Jik in handling the gu worms but each clone boasted certain preferences and did not wholly commit to deducing the recipes alone.
'Refining such a combination of clone… or going too deep in this direction is a trap of overfulfillment. Just because I can do it doesn't mean I must waste my time doing it.'
The most beautiful thing about attainment was having the instinct of analyzing whether one's objective or train of thought was worthwhile or not. Lo Jik deemed the project of refining a clone with wisdom, formation, and refinement path effects rather worthless.
Instead, this line of thought made him more curious about a clone with formation and refinement path effects. Lo Jik's instincts already had an answer. However, like before, this type of clone that delved deep into multiple paths might not have any additional gu recipes to offer. But that was also fine in a way. The greater Lo Jik's attainment increased, the lesser his reliance on such recipes. Of course, this was only for mortal recipes.
Lo Jik still had a great thirst for immortal gu recipes!
As for his increasing interest in luck path, Lo Jik couldn't help but wonder if increasing and manipulating his luck would affect his trait. Truthfully, he couldn't wait to find out.
Once Hu Mei Er reached rank 5, Lo Jik took a deep breath and modified the formation in cultivation chamber. He used several gu worms, including his second vital gu—Disguise Immortal Gu. Finally, he carefully activated the human path killer move he had been practicing for the last few days.
Several gu worms floated around rank 6 Inviting Pagoda Immortal Gu. The number of mortal gu worms surpassed 500! There were space path, qi path, earth path, rule path, soul path, formation path, and refinement path gu worms—all rank 5!
This was an immortal killer move. In fact, Lo Jik prioritized this killer move over even strength path immortal killer moves!
It was an unnamed killer move. Once it was complete, Lo Jik thought about it briefly and smiled.
'Let's call it Anywhere Door.'
Human path immortal killer move—Anywhere Door!
Wherever Lo Jik was, he could open a door to his immortal aperture and enter it without placing it down!
A light shot out of Lo Jik's abdomen and transformed into the door of Lo Jik's human path blessed land. It wasn't massive but just right for Lo Jik to pass through it.
Lo Jik wondered about a few things for the last few days.
He wondered if just waiting for other girls and Bai La was the right way to move forward. In reality, Lo Jik needed to make use of every benefit he possessed ever since he obtained that dream path inheritance during his ascension.
He only had positive emotions for Shu Zhe, Qin Juan, Bai La, Feng Jin Huang, and Sun Yao. However, he could not afford to fall into a passive state. He simply couldn't! And that's why he decided to heal Hu Mei Er.
Platinum… he needed to know what benefits he stood to gain at platinum achievements.
Furthermore, Anywhere Door presented a great strategic advantage. Lo Jik could cultivate for months while only a week passed in the public blessed land without letting anyone else know.
Of course, a few hours of his day would go to Hu Mei Er as they would finally explore the limits of Vital Human Killer Move and what else they stood to exchange aside from spit.
<<<>>>
And so, that's what they did.
But Lo Jik had been a little too optimistic.
The gap between his cultivation and Hu Mei Er was simply too massive despite the latter being a peak stage rank 5 luck path gu master.
Previously, Lo Jik obtained a bronze reward from his lovers every few days. He could steadily accumulate till platinum achievements without any issues. Now, Lo Jik spent forty days acquiring the bronze rewards. The difference was simply too much!
'So much for trying to snatch the initiative.' Lo Jik exhaled. He barely accumulated two bronze rewards while spending months fucking Hu Mei Er every day. Undoubtedly, the gleeful and utterly satisfied pinkette clinging to him like a one giant teddy bear had the time of her life.
But all was not bad.
The extended period of time allowed Lo Jik to consolidate several things as he also gained deeper understanding of luck path. He prepared several killer moves ranging from top-tier strength path killer moves to immortal killer moves involving Dreamer and several other dream path gu worms. He also studied the Disaster Kittens and the unnamed nightmare-looking colt.
'You know what.' He thought suddenly. 'Let's just call is Nightmare Demonic Colt.'
Anyway, Lo Jik had several trump cards and felt somewhat confident to step outside the public blessed land.
As for the bronze rewards? It was as Lo Jik predicted. He mostly received groups of mortal rare mortal gu worms ranging from 100-500 gu worms, small portions of rank 6 immortal materials, and corpses of desolate beasts. Lo Jik checked every item and did not feel any impulse of retrieving them. Instead, he planned to accumulate the rewards with Hu Mei Er as she cultivated luck path.
<<<>>>
'It was as I expected.' Lo Jik discreetly observed his luck. It still appeared the same as an ancient tree without a canopy of leaves. However, there was an additional branch growing from the tree, increasing the number from five branches to six. On the sixth branch also grew a delicate and beautiful peach blossom. The petals of this peach blossom were pink like the shade of Hu Mei Er's hair and the core in the center was a profound gold. This gold was like flowing light and extremely enigmatic. Most conspicuous was how this sixth peach blossom was growing from the base of the branch instead of the portion near the tips like other peach blossoms.
'These peach blossoms signify the luck of my partners. The largest golden one with a reflective sheen is none other than the representation of Bai La's luck. Then those ones must belong to Shu Zhe, Qin Juan, and Sun Yao. This sixth blossom represents Hu Mei Er.' Lo Jik innately understood several things about luck path after observing it for a while. This was the benefit of attainment, and this much of observation could already be emulated by luck path masters. Lo Jik had the potential to achieve greater things with luck path as long as he had enough time.
'Unlike other partners, Hu Mei Er is connected to me through Vital Human Killer Move. That's why she is so close to this tree, growing from the base of the branch that is connected with the main trunk.'
'So, this dream-like peach blossom must belong to…'
Lo Jik's expression turned slightly complex as he recalled the woman of fortuitous encounters. He would have spent a lifetime envying Feng Jin Huang instead of seducing her if his character were a notch lacking.
'She acquired a dream path immortal gu in her dreams. It doesn't get more obvious than that.'
Lo Jik was absolutely certain Dream Wings Immortal Gu was a dream path immortal gu worm after he saw its effects in Bai La's dream realm.
'The great era is approaching. The prophecy of Great Dream Immortal Venerable is nigh.' Lo Jik recollected everything he learned from Black Moon and Fairy Yi. 'Dream path will emerge in the gu world. Its effects are incredible. Earlier, I only predicted that the disappearance of the regional qi walls will lead to an unprecedented great war consuming the entire gu world in its rage! But… there is something more to this. Whenever I think about, I feel a pit forming in my gut.'
'History has shown that heroes are born in the time of great era. Countless experts fight and leave behind countless legends.'
'Feng Jin Huang is not just someone of great origins. Her affinity with dream path is outstanding, far surpassing mine.'
This was not an idle deduction but something Lo Jik only concluded because he was a luck and dream path great grandmaster.
The pit in his gut deepened.
'Is she to be one of the geniuses who simply perish and become a stepping stone for this new venerable?'
'Is she to become a foundation for succeeding dream path gu immortals in the future?'
'What use am I if I let this happen?'
Convenient kindness aside, Lo Jik had suffered enough tragedies to realize when to act. The thought of experiencing the same thing left his stomach churning with disgust.
Saving Bai La was far from convenient. Not only did he have to expose his dream path foundation but he ended up ruining Tian Ti Mountain in the process.
Nobody would call this a great convenience!
But he did it.
And he would do it again.
Love Gu on Lo Jik's shoulder suddenly pressed closer to his face and the lotus bloomed. The miniman-like figure resembling Nina smiled at him as Lo Jik's smile deepened slightly.
"Are you ready?"
A voice emerged from behind as Lo Jik turned to look at Black Moon. She appeared calm and casual on the surface, but Lo Jik's instinct for human path was the greatest. Not only was he a human path great grandmaster but his body also had several human path dao marks ever since he became a human path gu immortal!
These dao marks bridged the gap between a gu immortal and the great dao.
What were humans if not the greatest available human path gu materials?
So, Lo Jik believed his instincts that Black Moon was absolutely pissed about something! This was also the reason why Lo Jik could so 'elegantly' resolve the initial resistance between Bai La and Feng Jin Huang. It was also the reason why Lo Jik once had an intuition of letting Bai La win in their strip refinement duel. Sure, it led to the conclusion of Lo Jik getting ass fucked but he did settle the score, didn't he?
Human path was number one in terms of managing personal and other forms of human relationships!
'What an impressive actor.' Lo Jik praised Black Moon in his mind. He wouldn't have noticed a thing if not for his intuition.
"I'm born ready!" Lo Jik lied confidently as he brushed his fingers through his hair. "Sigh…" He did it again. "I can't believe I grew out my hair." He exhaled loudly. "Thankfully… thankfully…"
Black Moon ignored him and stepped past as they exited the sect's public blessed land.
