The Heaven-shattering: I and Wu Shi compete for the throne

Chapter 753 once

He decided to select some exceptional talents to cultivate, focusing on the most outstanding women who were willing to serve him and become his concubines.

Li Daoming then separated a wisp of his divine sense, taking the ruthless empress's brother away to select suitable peerless geniuses to cultivate together.

As for him himself?
After spending some time with the ruthless empress, he sent her back to an area that could accommodate her, would not affect her enlightenment and transformation, and where the time flow was a hundred times faster than the outside world, allowing her to transform in peace.

He then returned to the ninth heaven of the Boundless Emperor Realm, summoned back his many concubines who were not in the ninth heaven, and prepared to engage in Yin-Yang dual cultivation with them.

However, not all of them were recalled. Some whose cultivation was still low and who had not yet broken through to True Immortal, and who were still receiving training from the Boundless Holy Court, as well as some who were still on the path of mortal immortal transformation without failure, did not return.

Even so, the number of his concubines gathered in the Ninth Heaven exceeded 22,000.

Of his more than 22,000 concubines, more than 17,000 had already engaged in yin-yang dual cultivation with him, while the remaining 5,000 had not.

There are two main reasons why he has so many concubines but has never engaged in yin-yang dual cultivation with them:

Firstly, he used to wait until they reached a certain level of cultivation and were unable to break through on their own in a short period of time before engaging in Yin-Yang dual cultivation with them.

When they first engage in Yin-Yang dual cultivation with him, they can gain tremendous benefits, basically breaking through bottlenecks and advancing to a smaller level or even breaking through the barrier of a larger realm.

Therefore, there were naturally many concubines who had not yet engaged in yin-yang dual cultivation with him.

Secondly, more than 100,000 years ago, the Great Dao of the Boundless Emperor Realm transformed and sublimated to the level of the Immortal Emperor, and began to transform into the Great Thousand World. During this period, a large number of geniuses emerged.

Over the course of more than 100,000 years, many people have failed on the path of mortal immortal transformation and turned to the path of true immortal, breaking through to become true immortals. Because their cultivation time is still short, they still have a lot of room for improvement, and he has not yet engaged in yin-yang dual cultivation with them.

Moreover, over the past 100,000 years, he hadn't had much time or energy to engage in Yin-Yang dual cultivation with them.

Even when he engaged in Yin-Yang dual cultivation with them, it was mostly with his Daoist partners and concubines who had already engaged in Yin-Yang dual cultivation with him.

Faced with these more than five thousand concubines who had not yet engaged in yin-yang cultivation with him, Li Daoming hesitated for a moment and decided not to wait for them any longer.

Although most of them still have room for growth and can cultivate on their own to break through their cultivation levels.

But if we continue to wait for them, until they reach a certain level of cultivation and are unable to break through on their own in a short period of time, and then engage in Yin-Yang dual cultivation with them, we don't know how long it would take.

By then, their cultivation level will likely be far behind that of the concubines who have already practiced dual cultivation with him.

Having made his decision, Li Daoming did not hesitate and began to savor the taste of these peerless beauties with whom he had not yet engaged in yin-yang dual cultivation.

Because most of them were not highly cultivated, only at the early or middle stage of True Immortal, and none of them even had a Celestial King, so the gap between them and him was too great.

If he wanted, he could cultivate Yin and Yang with dozens or even hundreds of them at the same time, merging his essence, energy, spirit, and mind with theirs to help them cultivate.

Although this would reduce the effectiveness of their Yin-Yang dual cultivation with him, the difference in their abilities would not be too great.

However, this was ultimately their first time practicing Yin-Yang dual cultivation with him.

In the past, when he first engaged in Yin-Yang dual cultivation with his concubines, he would always give them dignity and time to adjust, and would practice with them alone once. He would naturally treat them the same way, without discrimination!
It took Li Daoming four or five hundred years to finally have one private Yin-Yang dual cultivation session with each of them.

Although their cultivation levels were too low, none of them had broken through to the Immortal King level, his cultivation level was too high, having already broken through to the mid-stage Immortal Emperor level, and his Great Dao realm and combat power were far beyond the mid-stage Immortal Emperor level.

They practiced Yin-Yang dual cultivation with him, and his essence, energy, spirit, and mind merged with theirs. Their thinking, comprehension, and realm were all elevated to the level of Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

Moreover, as he cultivated Yin and Yang with them while refining the world's origin to improve his cultivation, they also obtained and, with the help of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm, refined some of the world's origin, which further elevated their realm.

Although he is still in the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm, he is more than just a beginner in the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm.

This greatly reduces the time they can sustain their Yin-Yang dual cultivation with him, sometimes for less than ten days, and at most for a month or so.

But this also allowed their cultivation to progress as rapidly as a rocket taking off, advancing by leaps and bounds in a single day.

In a short period of time, it improved by at least one small level. No, that's not right. It should be said that it improved by at least two small levels.

However, after the peak of True Immortal comes Quasi-Immortal King, and after Quasi-Immortal King comes Immortal King. Between Quasi-Immortal King and Immortal King is a major realm, not a minor level.

A concubine whose cultivation has reached the peak of True Immortal may not necessarily be able to break through to Immortal King when she first engages in Yin-Yang dual cultivation with him.

A concubine whose cultivation has reached the level of a quasi-immortal king can cultivate yin and yang with him. Although she will definitely be able to break through to the immortal king level, most of them will only be flawed immortal kings, and very few will be able to break through to the ordinary immortal king level.

After finishing his dual cultivation with the many concubines who had not yet engaged in yin-yang dual cultivation with him, Li Daoming then proceeded to engage in yin-yang dual cultivation with the concubines who had already engaged in dual cultivation with him.

Because they had all practiced Yin-Yang dual cultivation with him, and more than once. Among them, the lowest cultivation level was at the mid-stage of True Immortal, and there were even nearly seven thousand whose cultivation level was above Flawed Immortal King.

They practiced Yin-Yang dual cultivation with him, but not individually. Instead, a dozen or even dozens of them would practice together, their essence, energy, spirit, and mind merging with his.

But on average, each of them can persist for a much longer time.

On average, cultivators at the True Immortal realm can sustain themselves for about a month, while those at the Immortal King realm can sustain themselves for four or five months.

It took him three or four thousand years to cultivate Yin and Yang with each of them and satisfy them.

Similarly, because their cultivation levels were far below his, and because they refined the world's origin during their Yin-Yang dual cultivation, their realms were elevated to extremely high levels.

Among them, apart from those who encountered bottlenecks in the Immortal King or Quasi-Immortal Emperor realms, the concubines in the True Immortal realm broke through at least two minor levels, and the concubines in the Immortal King realm broke through at least one minor level.

After practicing Yin-Yang dual cultivation with all of them, Li Daoming shifted his time and energy to the eight women: the Ruthless Empress, Ye Yixian, Ye Yunxian, Ye Liuxian, Xia Qinghuang, Jiang Qianxi, Kong Lin, and Xin Hua.

During those four thousand years, they did not stay in the region with a time flow rate a hundred times faster to cultivate and attain enlightenment.

After cultivating for only about a hundred years, restoring his depleted mental energy to its peak, and digesting the gains from his Yin-Yang dual cultivation with him, he returned to the ninth heaven of the Boundless Emperor Realm.

Even so, the Ruthless Empress went through a transformation once, taking a step into the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm and breaking through to the late Quasi-Immortal Emperor stage. Ye Yixian, Ye Yunxian, and Ye Liuxian also broke through to become ordinary Quasi-Immortal Emperors. However, Xia Qinghuang, Jiang Qianxi, Kong Lin, and Xin Hua are still quite far from breaking through to become ordinary Quasi-Immortal Emperors.
