My Daoist partner helps me cultivate immortality

Lin Ye estimated that he would be able to accumulate 50000 experience points for the Geng Metal Rat bloodline during the banquet.

He and Chu Yingying have been working towards this goal for twelve years.

It's not easy!

The selection of a Daoist partner under the table is also particular.

To ensure that the mouse has more screen time, the other two characters are a princess who is physically weak and cannot be played too often.

And Wenren Sheshe, who dared not compete or fight.

Upon learning of her idea, Huang Zhou exclaimed that she wanted to go too!

However, it's still not advisable for the Great Demon to appear on the surface; let's satisfy her later.

The large square table where Lin Ye was sitting was covered with a luxurious black and gold tablecloth made of spiritual artifacts.

Under the table, the senior god of human pillars also arranged an array to conceal their aura.

Now, apart from the human pillar god controlling the array, no one knows what's happening under the table.

Unfortunately, due to insufficient preparation time, a small bug occurred: even Lin Ye's divine sense could not penetrate under the table.

But everything is for the sake of cultivation, so this little problem doesn't matter.

The three of them made a brief appearance when presenting Lin Ye with a congratulatory gift, and then hid behind the table while the Human Pillar God used an array to obscure the view of all the cultivators.

The array's effect ended, and the table was now laden with fine wines and delicacies. The cultivators marveled at the sight and offered their congratulations in unison: "Congratulations on Prince Lin's thirtieth birthday! May your path to immortality be boundless!"

"Let's have a party!"

Lin Ye smiled, at the same time feeling her clothes being fiddled with under the table.

His eyes narrowed, preparing to determine the other person's identity directly through his senses.

The difference seems quite significant.

"..." Under the dark table, the princess lit a flame of spiritual energy, illuminating the rosy cheeks of the three people.

Princess and Wenren Qingyu exchanged a glance and said, "Sister Yingying, you go first."

"Okay." Chu Yingying smiled slightly.

She also knew that Lin Ye's Geng Metal Rat bloodline was about to advance further.

Naturally, I was very excited and wanted to help him take it a step further as soon as possible.

Lin Ye's eyes flickered slightly.

This feeling...

There is a feeling called synesthesia—for example, experiencing touch as smell at the same time.

People often say that you can tell a woman's character by her scent.

If Lin Ye wanted to, he could truly experience what "flavor" meant.

The sensation he was experiencing at that moment was as lingering and resilient as a fragrant mist, with the top notes of lemon's sweet and sour flavor, the middle notes of almonds, and the base notes of a light amber scent.

This is definitely Yingying!

"Hoo... Husband..." Chu Yingying gently pressed Lin Ye's hand and breathed softly.

After a while, Lin Ye felt a warm breath approaching him, like a young girl's breath.

If it weren't for the power of the Crimson Emperor fragments.

The feeling wouldn't be warmth, but rather intense heat.

The top notes are as elegant as white tea, the middle notes are as bright and stimulating as pink pepper, and the base notes are a faint and lingering woody aroma.

"Without a doubt, this is a princess!"

"Huff...huff..." The princess was pale and was trying to regain her strength.

After a while, the two sensations alternated several times, and Lin Ye felt a refreshing, moist sensation.

The top notes are sweet peach, the middle notes are rich lychee, and the base notes are a mixture of milk and coconut.

The entire process was accompanied by a very strong aura, which undoubtedly belonged to a water-type cultivator—"It must be Wenren."

"Hmm... this kind of identification isn't challenging for me!"

"Sisters, don't look at me!" Under the flickering light of the spiritual fire, Wenren shyly covered her eyes.

.......

Not long after the banquet began, a golden light flashed in Lin Ye's eyes, and the light of Geng metal energy flickered around him.

'The bloodline of the Geng Metal Rat has completed its first purification!'

'I knew it! This feeling is Yingying's!'

'I am completely familiar with the bodies of my Daoist partners.'

Lin Ye felt a slight itch on his head, as if a pair of round, golden ears were about to grow out, but he suppressed the feeling.

However, it's just being suppressed; it can still sprout at any time.

'Hmm... Yingying is still continuing, and our dual cultivation efficiency has increased!'

Lin Ye's eyes flickered slightly. Is this the benefit of purifying bloodlines?

The rate at which bloodlines accumulate has increased!

[Mythical Beast Bloodline - Gengjin Rat +3!]

[Metal elemental spiritual root +3!]

After the first bloodline purification is completed, the next step is to carry out a second purification. After the second purification, the strength will be no less than that of a real beast!

It's a bit strange to say.

How can a hybrid be comparable to the original?

This is actually quite normal. It's similar to how in some games, dragonborn can hunt dragons, and in others, hybrids can defeat dragon kings...

After the Geng Metal Rat bloodline was purified, Lin Ye felt the Geng Metal Qi in his body surge rapidly, and now it could form a coating several feet thick on his body surface.

Or, it could transform into an extremely long and sharp cleaver!

In the past, Lin Ye did not use the Geng metal energy in battle, partly because his reach was too short to extend too far.

This length is now usable!

It can be used together with the strange fire, since they don't conflict.

"Even the ancient and divine ship-slaying blades could have a layer of Geng metal energy inside and a strange fire on the outside. Wouldn't that achieve perfect mixed damage?"

"If anyone has high resistance and tries to withstand the strange fire head-on, they will be killed!"

Lin Ye's eyes lit up.

However, this would require some modifications to the ship-slaying sword.

We'll start refining weapons after we reach the third level of the Nascent Soul stage.

First, hand over the improved project proposal to Chu Lian'er.

Lin Ye wasn't incapable of making changes, but it would be more convenient to hand them over to Chu Lian'er! Her work ability was truly remarkable; she produced drafts of new magical artifacts every day.

Although not every draft is feasible, it can also be quite daunting.

Because of the urgency of his three years of cultivation, Lin Ye has not yet fulfilled Chu Lian'er's wish of "just rubbing against her".

After hearing about Lin Ye's desire to make a breakthrough quickly, she expressed her understanding.

If we don't put our hearts into it, the efficiency of cultivating together will be reduced.

Lin Ye thought to himself that he would satisfy her properly after he had finished his business.

Lin Ye can now use his divine sense to look inward and feel that his metal-type spiritual root has grown stronger. In a few decades, it will be able to evolve into a heavenly spiritual root!

Lin Ye estimated that, based on the number of times he and his Daoist partner cultivated together, before the progress of his Emperor Blood reached 100 million, one or two of his three spiritual roots, plus two water-type auxiliary spiritual roots, should be able to reach the Heavenly Spiritual Root level first.

'The Emperor's Bloodline progress is maxed out, which is when I started exploring the Martial Emperor era...'

Becoming a cultivator with a Heavenly Spiritual Root before that would be suitable.

As for acquiring a spiritual root and prioritizing reaching the Heavenly Spiritual Root level, for now, just do as you please.

After the Heavenly Spiritual Root, there is another stage called the Supreme Spiritual Root.

In terms of cultivation speed, it is not much faster than that of cultivators with heavenly spiritual roots, at least in an environment without immortal energy.

However, the supreme spiritual root has another characteristic—it comes with supernatural powers!

Every cultivator with a supreme spiritual root can use their spiritual root to unleash powerful innate supernatural abilities.

For example, the time stop effect of [Overlord] is one of the most terrifying.

As she gradually repairs her supreme spiritual root that was dug out, the effect of time stop is on the duration, and it becomes longer and longer!

Moreover, as long as the enemy cannot overcome the Overlord's array patterns, this pause will take effect regardless of the cultivator's realm, and the duration will remain unchanged.

The only question is whether the Overlord can break through the defense within the time limit.

In fact, she used this trick to escape in her early days.

"Once I break through to the Heavenly Spiritual Root, I can finally look forward to my own Supreme Treasure Technique!" Lin Ye thought to himself.

"Multiple Heavenly Spiritual Roots are no weaker than a single-attribute Heavenly Spiritual Root; this has long been a consensus in the cultivation world."

"And multiple supreme spiritual roots... because they contain more magical techniques, are stronger than a single supreme spiritual root."

Lin Ye thought to herself, her aptitude was so high that it actually turned into more and stronger spiritual roots.

He will also have to make up for the last missing attribute of his body...

Earth element, complete the set!

Like Bai Yue, one can achieve this by creating a second child within a virtual machine that uses one's own body as the seed.

However, this is not easy to achieve, especially since Lin Ye is not Bai Yue herself.

I need to learn from her.

In Lin Ye's memory, there had never been a cultivator in history who possessed multiple supreme spiritual roots.

"The experience bar for a supreme spiritual root must be incredibly long..."

"But that's alright, as long as my lifespan is longer than itss!"

"Speaking of which, I want the ability to stop time too!"

"This is absolutely necessary!"

A slight smile played on Lin Ye's lips as he felt waves of tingling sensation wash over him.

Not far away, the cultivators who came to offer their birthday wishes had a glint in their eyes, and were extremely shocked.

Why did Prince Lin suddenly make a breakthrough?

Unbelievable... you can break through even by eating and drinking?

This is terrifying!

Many cultivators looked at each other in disbelief, deeply shocked.

The prodigies of the Golden Crow Clan and the Kunpeng Clan offered their congratulations and paid their respects: "Congratulations on Your Highness's thirtieth birthday! You have a promising future as an immortal, and your path to immortality is boundless!"

"Haha, there's a reward!"

Lin Ye's face was rosy, and with a wave of his hand, he distributed a bag of spirit stones to each person.

"Your Highness Lin seems really happy today, your face is even flushed!"

Lin Ye was experiencing both pain and pleasure at this moment.

He saw various fine wines and spirits laid out on the banquet tables below, but he could not consume any cultivation supplements.

This feeling...

It's so frustrating to be able to look but not eat!

Speaking of dual cultivation, Bai Yue has recently been able to only look at Lin Ye but not touch him.

Since Bai Yue's body underwent a transformation, it has been in a period of fluctuation for several years.
