Immortality Begins by Taking Care of Master’s Wife – Chapter 148

Chapter 148: Exploding Chu Ba Huang, Shocking the Great Qian for 10,000 Years, Invincible Throughout History

Jade Immortal Restaurant.

“Slap! Slap! Slap!”

Half-leaning by the window, listening to the wind and rain, the raindrops beat against the banana leaves, each sound a sob.

“The Genius Martial Arts Tournament starts today. I wonder who will take first place?”

“Fairy Yun Xiao, the top of the Prodigy Ranking from the Purple Firmament Palace, didn’t come. I think Zhao Long Xiang, ranked second from the Dragon Elephant Sect, is very likely to win the championship this time!”

“Not necessarily! Although Zhao Long Xiang is ranked second, he may not be stronger than those ranked lower on the Prodigy Ranking. Not to mention, that Zhou Chen is a strong opponent!”

“Yeah, I heard that at Heaven’s Pride Tower, Zhou Chen was able to beat Zhao Long Xiang just with his physical strength, and Zhou Chen is good at swordsmanship and movement techniques!”

“I think Zhou Chen is very likely to win the championship!”

“I don’t think so. Although Zhou Chen is exceptionally talented, he is a bit young, and coming from a humble background, he started practicing martial arts late. His cultivation level is still a bit low!”

“Yeah, Zhou Chen just broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm not long ago. Even if his cultivation speed is fast, he’s probably at the second or third revolution of the Nascent Soul Realm at most. I think Tuoba Wudi, ranked third on the Prodigy Ranking from the Savage God Sect, has a better chance of suppressing all heroes and winning the championship!”

“I heard that Zhao Long Xiang and Zhou Chen have been competing in playing with women at Jade Immortal Restaurant these past few days. I wonder if they are confident or arrogant. Don’t let your legs go weak and embarrass yourself!”

“Mind your own damn business! Even if their legs go weak, they can still slap you to death with one hand. Besides, don’t you know that Zhou Chen cultivates by playing with women?”

“As for Zhao Long Xiang, do you think his Dragon Elephant Divine Body is as useless as yours?”

……

Discussions were abuzz within Jade Immortal Restaurant. Countless patrons withdrew from the embrace of jade-like arms and legs, adjusted their belts, and prepared to watch the Genius Martial Arts Tournament.

On the top floor of Jade Immortal Restaurant, in the Supreme Suite, Hong Zhu and Qing Yu Yao walked over with their long, fair legs, looking at Zhou Chen who was exercising by the window:
“Young Master, today is the day the Genius Martial Arts Tournament begins. You haven’t forgotten, have you?”

“Of course not, there’s no rush anyway!”

Zhou Chen smiled and increased his pace.

A moment later.

Yu Ling Long, the top courtesan of Jade Immortal Restaurant, leaned her neck back, her chest heaving, her entire body completely limp in Zhou Chen’s arms, her legs straight, her muscles stiff.

“Alright!”

Zhou Chen turned around with a smile, picked up Yu Ling Long and placed her on the couch, casually covering her with a blanket.

Yu Ling Long was already so happy that she couldn’t close her mouth, drooling, and fainted.

Qing Yu Yao glanced at the window, the accumulated water was clear.

A special scent lingered, filling her nostrils.

Hong Zhu came to Zhou Chen with a smile, ignoring the fainted Yu Ling Long, and helped Zhou Chen wash and dress.

She soaked the towel in hot water, wrung it dry, and gently wiped Zhou Chen’s wet hair, sighing:
“Young Master, no matter what you do, you are unparalleled in the world!”

“Hong Zhu, your little mouth is so sweet!!”

Zhou Chen reached out and squeezed Hong Zhu, feeling refreshed. He glanced at the fainted Yu Ling Long and was suddenly inspired to write a poem:
“Three days, the firewood door could not be closed, the steps and courtyard are covered in white!”

“Good poem! Young Master, your literary talent is extraordinary, your words flow like a spring, you are both skilled in martial arts and literature, truly admirable!”

Hong Zhu praised.

The corners of Qing Yu Yao’s mouth twitched. What kind of erotic poem was that, truly indecent.

But thinking about how Zhou Chen always talked dirty when he was with her…

Compared to that, this poem was quite elegant.

“Are you guys done?”

Qing Yu Yao reminded them.

She was afraid that the two would start doing it again, and they wouldn’t be able to go today.

“Is Master Aunt jealous?”

Zhou Chen came over with Hong Zhu in his arms, casually pulling Qing Yu Yao into his embrace, and left the room with the two beauties.

Creak.

Zhao Long Xiang also came out, Hug A Zhu and A Mo. The two looked at each other and smiled.

The friendship between men is that simple.

The three irons of life.

Studied together.

Carried guns together.

Visited brothels together.

Now it was the third iron.

“Xiao Long, you have soy milk on your mouth!”

Zhou Chen’s eyes flickered, and he suddenly said.

“Where?”

Zhao Long Xiang casually wiped his mouth, knowing he had been tricked by Zhou Chen.

“No wonder Xiao Long, you have so much strength, you drink milk every meal!”

Zhou Chen’s gaze subtly swept over A Zhu and A Mo’s ample chests.

But Zhou Chen wasn’t envious, Master Aunt and Hong Zhu were no worse than them.

He also drank every day!
He loved beast milk the most!

“Call me Xiao Long again and I’ll flip out!”

Zhao Long Xiang glared at Zhou Chen fiercely, unconvinced:
“Let’s have a real fight today. If you lose, you have to call me Long Ge, no more Xiao Long!”

“Alright, if you lose, you call me Chen Ge!”

Zhou Chen agreed.

“A gentleman’s word!”

“Hard to chase after four horses!”

Zhou Chen and Zhao Long Xiang bumped fists and left Jade Immortal Restaurant together.

Qing Yu Yao, Hong Zhu, A Zhu, and A Mo followed behind them respectively.

“Take care, gentlemen, welcome back anytime!”

“We will, we will!”

Zhou Chen and Zhao Long Xiang left Jade Immortal Restaurant in style, followed by countless patrons of Jade Immortal Restaurant, heading towards the Heaven’s Pride Platform where the Genius Martial Arts Tournament was held.

……

Heaven’s Pride Platform.

It was a celestial mountain.

At this moment, the foot of the mountain was crowded with people, including geniuses from all over the Great Qian Dynasty and spectators who came to watch the excitement.

Zhou Chen and Zhao Long Xiang arrived at Heaven’s Pride Platform, immediately attracting countless gazes.

“It’s Zhao Long Xiang, the Holy Son of the Dragon Elephant Sect, and Zhou Chen, the Holy Son of the Unbounded Sword Sect!”

“I heard that they’ve been at Jade Immortal Restaurant these past few days, making the girls there so happy they couldn’t close their legs, experiencing ecstasy.”

“I wonder if their legs will be weak!”

“You probably don’t know that Zhou Chen cultivates through this! The more women he plays with, the stronger he gets!”

“What! There’s such a good thing?”

“Could it be Gathering Yin to Supplement Yang?”

“Gather your sister! If it was Gathering Yin to Supplement Yang, could he be standing here? He has a special talent!”

……

Ignoring the curious gazes and discussions around him, Zhou Chen looked towards Heaven’s Pride Platform.

On the platform, there was only a towering pagoda that pierced the clouds and countless VIP seats.

That pagoda was called the Heaven-Reaching Tower.

It was a special treasure.

It recorded the projections of countless geniuses from the past hundreds of thousands of years.

After a genius enters, it will match you with an opponent of the same age and cultivation level.

After defeating your opponent, you will be matched with another opponent of the same age but stronger.

If there are no opponents of the same age, it will match you with a stronger opponent of a different age.

Each opponent was a genius who had previously challenged the tower.

After defeating them, you can take their ranking.

However, the Heaven-Reaching Tower only records those under thirty years old.

Therefore, it only recorded geniuses under thirty years old.

Usually, the Heaven-Reaching Tower is also open to the public.

The purpose of creating the Heaven-Reaching Tower was to select geniuses.

Time flew by, and it was soon noon.

A middle-aged man with a dignified face, dressed in a purple robe, appeared in the void and said loudly:
“Silence!”

These two simple words were like thunder, and the originally noisy Heaven’s Pride Platform immediately quieted down. Everyone looked at the purple-robed elder.

“The assessment for this Genius Martial Arts Tournament is to challenge the Heaven-Reaching Tower. The deadline is sunset.”

“Now begin!”

The purple-robed elder spoke concisely and directly.

“I heard that there is a projection of Chu Ba Huang in the Heaven-Reaching Tower. I wonder if I will encounter it?”

Zhao Long Xiang’s eyes were filled with fighting spirit, his gaze burning.

“Chu Ba Huang?”

Zhou Chen’s heart stirred, he was ready to witness it.

“Brother, I’m going!”

Zhao Long Xiang patted Zhou Chen’s shoulder and turned into a stream of light, flying towards the Heaven-Reaching Tower.

The Heaven-Reaching Tower was very large, and one could enter from all directions. It had its own space inside, capable of accommodating hundreds of thousands of people challenging the tower simultaneously.

“Wait for me here!”

After instructing Qing Yu Yao and Hong Zhu, Zhou Chen flew into the Heaven-Reaching Tower.

After entering the Heaven-Reaching Tower.

Zhou Chen immediately felt the surrounding space change, and he appeared on a vast grassland.

“This treasure is of a high level, it is said to have been left behind by Chu Ba Huang!”

As Zhou Chen pondered, a genius at the ninth revolution of the Nascent Soul Realm appeared in front of him. “It seems my cultivation level can’t be hidden from the Heaven-Reaching Tower!”

Zhou Chen wasn’t too surprised. The Heaven-Reaching Tower was obviously of a high level, and it was normal for it to be able to detect his cultivation level after he entered.

“The first opponent in the Heaven-Reaching Tower is of the same age and realm. If not, it will prioritize the same realm. I wonder if this opponent is the same age as me or older?”

Zhou Chen sized up his opponent.

It was a swordsman in purple, his entire body filled with terrifying sword Qi.

Buzz!
A sword light silently attacked, and Zhou Chen was split in half, leaving a sword mark hundreds of Zhang long on the ground.

But there was no blood splatter.

The body that was split in half disappeared, it was just an afterimage.

Whoosh!
A sword light flashed, and the purple-clad swordsman’s head fell to the ground.

Zhou Chen had reached the peak of the 365th revolution of Body Refinement and advanced to the Divine Sea Realm, condensing the Great Dao Nascent Soul. Now he was at the peak of the ninth revolution of the Nascent Soul Realm.

On the Immortal Path, he had forged the Yin-Yang Dao Foundation and condensed the Great Dao Golden Core, and now the Golden Core was at its peak.

At this realm, Zhou Chen didn’t think anyone was stronger than him.

And those under thirty who reached the Divine Seed Realm were very few.

……

At the top seats of Heaven’s Pride Platform.

Figures appeared one after another, including Chu Wu Ya, the Emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty, Yao Ji, the Grand Princess, and Jian Xiong, the Eldest Princess.

The VIP seats were filled with nobles and powerful figures from major forces.

“Many geniuses from the Great Qian have come today. I wonder if anyone can break into the top 10,000 of the Heaven-Reaching Tower’s overall ranking?”

“I’m afraid it’s very difficult. The Heaven-Reaching Tower has stood here since the time of the Founding Emperor, recording countless geniuses born in the Great Qian over the past 300,000 years. Breaking into the top 10,000 is extremely difficult!”

“Zhou Chen is not yet twenty-one years old. When he comes to challenge the tower at twenty-nine, it won’t be difficult to break into the top 10,000, he might even break into the top 1,000. His cultivation level is a bit low now!”

……

People whispered and discussed amongst themselves.

They couldn’t see what was happening inside the Heaven-Reaching Tower and didn’t know Zhou Chen’s exact cultivation level. But Zhou Chen had only broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm half a year ago. Even if his cultivation was fast, he probably wouldn’t be beyond the third revolution of the Nascent Soul Realm.

With such a cultivation level, it was too difficult to break into the top 10,000.

300,000 years of history, how many geniuses must there be?
Yao Ji looked at the Heaven-Reaching Tower, her beautiful eyes filled with curiosity:

“I wonder what ranking this kid can achieve?”

“He was able to suppress Zhao Long Xiang with just his physical strength at Heaven’s Pride Tower. Although neither of them used their full strength, Zhou Chen’s strength is clearly not weak…”

At this moment.

Zhou Chen was cutting through his opponents like vegetables, defeating one after another at the ninth revolution of the Nascent Soul Realm or the peak of the Golden Core Realm.

His combat skills and experience were constantly increasing.

It had to be said that the Heaven-Reaching Tower was a good place to hone one’s combat experience, especially with the projections of geniuses accumulated over 300,000 years.

“After today’s challenge, my projection will also appear in the Heaven-Reaching Tower. I wonder if anyone will be able to defeat my projection hundreds or thousands of years later?”

Zhou Chen felt it would be very difficult.

He would be an even greater mountain than Chu Ba Huang, standing in the path of all geniuses, an insurmountable monument!
Just like Chu Ba Huang was to other geniuses now.

“Twelve opponents already, and I still haven’t encountered Chu Ba Huang!”

Zhou Chen became even more expectant.

Although there were definitely no less than three digits of geniuses at the ninth revolution of the Nascent Soul Realm or the peak of the Golden Core Realm over the past 300,000 years, the strength of the opponents increased gradually.

In other words, those weaker geniuses at the ninth revolution of the Nascent Soul Realm or the peak of the Golden Core Realm wouldn’t appear as Zhou Chen’s opponents at all.

“Fourteen!”

“Fifteen!”

……

“Twenty-seven, eh? Chu Ba Huang?”

Zhou Chen raised an eyebrow. This time, his opponent was a burly figure, no less imposing than Zhao Long Xiang, dressed in a purple-gold dragon robe, exuding majesty and dominance.

Just standing there, he had an air of authority that commanded respect.

The next moment.

Chu Ba Huang’s burly body moved like a mountain, his hand pressing down. It was a simple move, but it contained a terrifying power that transformed the ordinary into the extraordinary.

“Good move!”

Zhou Chen wasn’t afraid, raising his hand to meet the attack.

Boom! Boom! Boom!
Fists, palms, claws, fingers, legs, elbows, all kinds of martial arts techniques were used effortlessly as he fiercely fought Chu Ba Huang for hundreds of rounds.

Chu Ba Huang’s fist and foot techniques were also powerful.

Overbearing and domineering.

Fierce and vigorous.

Suddenly.

Chu Ba Huang raised his right hand. This hand was slender and powerful, there was nothing special about it, but when the five fingers of this right hand spread open, the surrounding space violently fluctuated, as if what he was spreading was not his fingers, but the sky itself.

Desolate Heaven-Splitting Finger!
He pointed a finger at Zhou Chen, endless power centered on this hand, crazily spinning and compressing, with a terrifying suction force that suppressed Zhou Chen’s ability to dodge, making his body move towards the finger.

But Zhou Chen planted his feet firmly on the ground, as if rooted, unmoving.

He also raised his hand, his index and middle fingers together, meeting the attack head-on.

His numerous finger techniques had merged into one, and any casual finger strike was no weaker than an unparalleled divine art.

Their fingers collided, and terrifying power exploded. Zhou Chen took two steps back, while Chu Ba Huang took ten steps back.

“Divine Saber Slash!”

Zhou Chen no longer held back, the Myriad Forms Divine Weapon transformed into a General-Slaying Saber, slashing diagonally.

The saber light was a hundred Zhang long, dazzlingly bright and eye-catching.

The aura emanating from this saber light was ten times fiercer and more ferocious than their previous finger attacks.

This saber slashed diagonally.

Wherever it passed, the air was neatly split in two like cloth.

“Eight Desolations Six Harmonies Saber!”

Chu Ba Huang drew his long saber, his entire body emanating an unparalleled powerful aura, slashing out with his saber without holding back.

The next moment.

The two saber lights collided, clashing, squeezing, and stalemating.

Immediately after.

The two hundred-Zhang saber lights exploded with a boom. Chu Ba Huang’s body trembled, a saber mark appeared on his chest, and he vanished with a roar.

“As expected of Chu Ba Huang, he was able to contend with me for so long at the same realm, even though I only used ten percent of my strength…”

Zhou Chen sighed, truly, a good reputation is not without merit.

Chu Ba Huang was definitely the strongest opponent he had encountered at the same level.

Bar none.

It’s a pity he was cheating.

Buzz!
Zhou Chen’s figure was sent out by the Heaven-Reaching Tower, landing directly on the high platform of Heaven’s Pride Platform.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Countless gazes swept towards him, and Zhou Chen’s heart tightened. He could feel that ninety percent of the people here were experts at the Divine Seed Realm or above.

Even Divine Ability Realm experts were not uncommon.

Zi Qing Xian Zi and Huangfu Yue Yao were both in the VIP seats.

“It’s Zhou Chen!”

“Why is he so fast?”

“I wonder what ranking Zhou Chen achieved?”

People looked at Zhou Chen curiously, he was the legendary Great Dao Nascent Soul condenser.

The only one in the entire Great Qian Dynasty.

Buzz!
The Heaven-Reaching Tower suddenly trembled, emitting a brilliant light that reached ten thousand Zhang.

The sky instantly turned golden.

“What’s going on?”

“Isn’t it not time to announce the rankings yet?”

Many people were confused.

Even Chu Wu Ya, the Emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty, was puzzled. Originally, the rankings were supposed to be displayed after the tournament ended.

And the commotion wouldn’t be so great.

They had never encountered such a situation, nor had they even heard of it.

At this moment.

The ten-thousand-Zhang brilliant light condensed into a golden ranking list.

Two mountain-sized characters appeared at the top of the list, shining with golden light, as if eternal and immortal, illuminating the ages.

【First Place, Zhou Chen】

【Second Place, Chu Ba Huang】

【Third Place…】

……

“What?”

“How is this possible?”

“First place, Zhou Chen!?”

“Is the Heaven-Reaching Tower malfunctioning?”

Everyone stood up, their eyes wide open, staring at the two mountain-sized characters “Zhou Chen” on the golden ranking list.

“Is this the Great Dao Nascent Soul? The Founding Emperor was actually defeated…”

Chu Wu Ya, the Emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty, trembled, his heart in turmoil, his eyes filled with disbelief as he stared at the ranking list, unable to believe it.

Zhou Chen had actually defeated Chu Ba Huang, the Founding Emperor, taking first place, becoming the strongest genius in the history of the Great Qian Dynasty.

Invincible throughout history!
