Chapter 76 - 76 59 Doctor Fifth Rank Mother Qi of All Things Please Follow Monthly Pass and Recommendation Votes

76: Chapter 59: Doctor Fifth Rank, Mother Qi of All Things (Please Follow, Monthly Pass, and Recommendation Votes) 76: Chapter 59: Doctor Fifth Rank, Mother Qi of All Things (Please Follow, Monthly Pass, and Recommendation Votes) “Hooray, as expected of myself, my lifespan exhausted, defying heaven, and finally reached the Fourth Rank.”

“This rebirth, seems like it’s the passive effect of Life Player’s transition from third to fourth rank?

Or is it caused by the fate pattern?”

Xu Shu looked at his higher self in the sky, clenched his fist, feeling somewhat unsure.

This was a sensation he had never experienced before, after all, his true transcendent path was that of a “Warrior,” completely unrelated to the profession of a “Doctor.”

“The first time I became legendary, I’m not sure if it was the path of the Martial Artist or the Warrior, but it seemed to be more of a breakthrough than a resurrection.”

“When Kyoto collapsed, what path was I on?

Summoner?

Taoist?

Or what?

By the final breakthrough to Fourth Rank, I was too exhilarated to notice if there had been any resurrection…”

“Tsk, I need to be more careful in the future, I should focus on what’s useful…”

Xu Shu grasped the fleeting and mysterious sensation while he could, and only after it had completely vanished did he continue to immerse himself, continuing this legend:

[You have become the Fertility Venerable, and your sisters in name have also been reborn from the ashes with you, becoming Sword Masters, and have forged flawless bodies, now inside and out, they are completely new people.]

[Such power has propelled Fenxiang Valley’s Xiao Family to become one of the top forces on the Sword Qi Continent overnight.]

[Nolan Qiushui fulfilled her promise from her past life, and you engaged in a legitimate marital relationship with the promises you agreed upon.

This is her first time.

How delightful~]

[Thirteen days later, you lead the army of sworn sisters back into the central region of Central Continent.]

[Now as Sword Masters, you possess new strengths, naturally you also have new ambitions and targets.]

[After some time of tempering, you reached the Fourth Rank Peak.]

[Your sworn sisters are now thoroughly connected with you, and they all have entered the peak realm of Sword Master, no longer facing any cultivation bottlenecks.

As strong as you are, they too can become stronger following you.]

[For you, to advance further beyond this peak, you must progress to the Fifth Order.]

[At this stage, the Little Grass God Soul Ring can no longer assist you.

You have tried to subdue all other Yuanjie Gods it knows of, to no avail.]

[However, you now possess the Yuanjie Gods of the grass, rock, fire, and thunder elements, and gods of the same element cannot form a bond with you.]

[“It is said that in Ancient Times there was a water element Yuanjie God, but it’s gone now~” Naxida is also very upset.]

[At this time, turmoil began on the Sword Qi Continent.

Rumors of the Ancient Half-Emperor Relics descending, ready to open.]

[There has never been a Sword Emperor in this world, and the Half-Emperor has always been the strongest of all generations.

It is said he nearly grasped the mysteries of becoming a Sword Emperor, only one step away.

Unfortunately, he died when his lifespan ran out.]

[Countless experts gathered at the entrance.

The head elders of the super forces, the young invincible talents, even the old monsters who had been in silence for years on the brink of exhausting their lifespans, all appeared one after another.]

[All the experts want to enter this place left behind by an ancient power.

If they can grasp even the slightest chance, to not only become a Sword Saint but also to become an Emperor is within reach.]

[Having reached the peak of Fourth Rank, you naturally wouldn’t miss this opportunity.

There may very well exist your chance for breakthrough, a water element Yuanjie God.]

[As the relics descended, everyone saw a row of ancient characters on the signboard saying “Creation Immortal Gate,” which was the ancient Half-Emperor’s quiet place of cultivation.]

[From all directions, the heroes converge, a grand gathering for all swordsmen on the Sword Qi Continent.]

[Everyone is waiting for the relics to truly open.

Only Sword Sects of at least Sword Master rank dare wait nearby, each one a notable figure.]

[And you, riding in a sedan chair pulled by five dragons and five phoenixes, slowly arrived at the scene.

With your strength and grandeur, naturally, you squeeze into the front row, drawing the attention of a group of young talents at the Sword Master level nearby.]

[“Dragons and phoenixes auspiciously present?

Whose grand carriage might this be?”]

[“Pah, I think it’s more like upside-down phoenixes and muddled dragons, probably not someone from the Righteous Path.” A white-clothed fairy sneered from the side, as your sedan chair shook in a ‘Z’ pattern in the sky, occasionally revealing the silhouette of an alluring woman through the curtains.]

[“Don’t you know?

This person is the ancestor of Fenxiang Valley’s Xiao Family.”]

[“Fenxiang Valley’s Xiao Family?

Isn’t that a second-rate force?

Are they also worthy of competing for the Half-Emperor’s chances?”]

[“Times have changed.

Half a year ago, the Xiao Family was almost annihilated by an alliance of assassins from the Four Dark Rivers, but guess what?

This ancestor of the Xiao Family climbed out of the coffin and became a Sword Master,” said a fat man with a big head and large ears, sipping some weird white cloudy wine.]

[“Giggle, I’ve heard too.

It’s said this ancestor of the Xiao Family was called the Witch Demon King and the Thirteen Holy Knights over two hundred years ago,” a seductive demoness covered her mouth and giggled.

[“Turns out it’s that old freak!

But I heard that the Four Dark Rivers were destroyed by Xuan Tianjun years ago, how come they’ve re-appeared?”]

[“Destroyed?

What a joke, Four Dark Rivers is backed by the Soul Hall, a centipede that doesn’t die even when beheaded.”]

[Those who could speak were all Sword Master level experts, some only in their thirties, and some from your same era, nostalgic indeed.]

[They didn’t avoid talking, even seeming to intentionally leak some information, while a group of Sword Sects scurried away in the distance, the remnants of the assassin organization, the Four Dark Rivers.]

[Of course, they did not escape, Nolan Qiushui tossed their heads into the river.

You, a lofty Sword Master, shouldn’t have stooped to deal with these juniors, you simply had no martial honor.]

[At that moment, the high heavens resonated with the sound of bells and cauldrons, and the sky was filled with aurora light.]

[The relics have arrived.]

The screen displayed a magnificent scene, the sky stretching down immense cyclones that stacked upwards, forming a staircase into the palace.

At the pinnacle of the staircase, there was a celestial mountain slowly descending, about to reach the ground.

From afar, it loomed over a thousand miles, blocking the sun and sky, with pavilions scattered across the mountain, corridors winding, eaves towering, its many layers unfathomable.

Yet, despite its semblance to heavenly palaces, all kinds of mythical creatures within were but lifeless things.

Upon closer inspection, Phoenixes flew and Tigers roared menacingly, Water Dragons lazily wrapped around, mountains inverted as if clothing in a mirror, a countless array of strange and abnormal phenomena.

The entire ancient site was dilapidated beyond measure, brimming with an aura of death.

Celestial radiance mixed with the thick silence of death created a paradox, eerie and oppressive, leaving everyone breathless.

——

[As soon as the entrance to the ruins opened, everyone rushed inside.

After all of you, the leaders at the Sword Master rank, had entered, the experts of the Sword Sect rank poured in too; even a mere touch would be infinitely beneficial to them.]

[It may look as though treasures are everywhere, but the legacies that could truly benefit people like you are actually quite rare, thus the great battle erupted instantly.]

[People were continually dying, some from the bizarre dangers of the ruins, and others from the cold-blooded acts of fellow explorers, with blood staining every corner of this creation-celestial gate.]

[You led your sister’s legion, rushing about in this place, when you saw an intensely fierce battle break out at the highest point.]

[You slyly moved to the edge of the battlefield and observed from the sidelines, noticing many of the combatants were peaks Sword Masters and Semi-Saints you recognized:

Wu Chonglou, Xuan Tianjun, Bai Zihua, Yan Xianzi, Lou Ruming, Su Wuming… They were legendary figures from your generation, whom you once could only look up to, but now you were their equal.]

[You discovered they were fighting over a glorious, multicolored pool, topped with radiant jewels.]

[And in the corner of the multicolored pool, there was a gourd-shaped dipper, within which a humanoid Yuanjie God was locked, her body covered in orchid-made strips that barely covered her palm-sized modesty, exposed and ashamed.]

[“It’s her!

I remember her, she is the mother of the water Yuanjie Gods, Coral Heart Orchid.

By subduing her, you’ll be able to complete the connection of five soul rings.” Your Yuanjie God Naxida provided you with ample information.]

[You stealthily made your way over.

This Yuanjie God was unremarkable and not the object of the others’ contention, and you easily got your hands on her.]

[“Ah, is it you, mother?” She sensed the familiar aura within you and pressed herself against you willingly.]

[“Mother?” You were perplexed but didn’t resist; you successfully subdued her, you melded into one, achieving a successful bond.]

[Your Yuanjie God’s four soul rings overlaid, with the fifth soul ring rising above and connecting at each angle, completing a historic breakthrough from point to surface, from surface to body.]

[Ah, you’re already a Fertility Venerable, and after overlaying five soul rings, you’ve begun to unravel the secrets of the origin!]

[You have acquired information related to advancing:]

[You shall condense within you: the Mother Qi of All Things!]

[You shall construct within you the initial abode of divinity: Wa Palace!]

[You are currently male, but after advancing, you shall become a true female, a complete female.]

[The fifth stage of your Doctor pathway is — Empress!]

[You can now begin to advance, male Fertility Venerable, and you’ll need one day to construct the Wa Emperor Island within you.]

[Proceed with advancement?]

[Yes?

No?]

[You have met the conditions for advancement; you have not made a choice, and barring any objections, the automatic advancement will begin after ten breaths.]

——

“Uh…”

“No.

Stop it for now.”

The advancement paused.

The Mother Qi of All Things on the screen, capable of severing all, stopped near your crotch, just a hair’s breadth from saying a final farewell to your treasured lower half.

Xu Shu hadn’t expected that the fifth stage on the Doctor pathway would involve changing genders.

Do I have to be cut?

Although it was only a game, the experience was real…

But he had already endured the agony of being dismembered before, so just playing as a female character hardly seemed like much in comparison.

He was just worried about any other curveballs thrown his way.

Besides, if he changed into a female, what would happen to the path of the imposing sister he’d been following?

Wouldn’t all his previous efforts be wasted?

Xu Shu fell into deep thought, his expression troubled.
