My Celestial Ascension



As Yuan, Anna, Grace, Lily, Emma, and Xi Meili stepped inside their room at the Wildflower Inn, their eyes widened at the sight before them. 

The room was spacious, with two large king-size beds adorned with soft, inviting sheets and fluffy pillows. 

In the center of the room, there was an ample-sized table, perfect for dining or gathering together.

Lily couldn't contain her excitement and swiftly made her way to one of the beds, pouncing on it with a delighted giggle. "Wow, look at this bed! It's so comfortable! I could sleep here for days!"

Xi Meili, equally enthralled by the luxurious bed, quickly joined Lily, bouncing on the mattress with a playful grin. 

"You're right, Lily! This bed feels like a cloud. I could stay here forever!"

Anna watched her daughter and daughter-in-law's gleeful antics, a warm smile gracing her face. 

"It seems that the Wildflower Inn truly lives up to its reputation. They wouldn't charge us five gold coins for a simple room, after all."

Grace nodded in agreement, her eyes twinkling with amusement. "Indeed, Anna. It seems we're in for a comfortable and memorable stay here. The innkeepers have certainly made sure to provide us with the finest accommodations."

Emma, who had been observing the scene with a gentle smile, chimed in. "I'm grateful for their attention to detail. After a long day of traveling, it's a relief to know we have such comfortable beds waiting for us."

Yuan, taking in the joyful atmosphere, joined his family on one of the beds, his voice filled with contentment. 

"Let's make the most of this cozy room, my dear ones. We have a comfortable place to rest and rejuvenate before continuing our journey to the capital."

As they settled onto the beds, feeling the softness enveloping them, the group shared laughter and lighthearted banter. 

At that moment, the stresses of their travels melted away, replaced by a sense of comfort and togetherness.

As Yuan turned his attention to his two mothers, Anna and Grace, he activated his divine sense to gauge their cultivation bases. 

As the energy flowed through him, he marveled at what he sensed. "Surprisingly, my two lovely mothers have now reached the peak of the ninth level of the Spirit Warrior realm," he muttered to himself. 

"If they continue cultivating for a few more hours, I'm certain they will break through to the first level of the Spirit Master realm."

At that moment, he heard Nora's voice resonating in his head, providing him with additional information. 

[Host, while you were honing your sword skills and deepening your comprehension of the sword, your two mothers were diligently cultivating. They are now just one step away from catching up to you.]

Yuan let out a sigh, realizing that he had been neglecting his own cultivation lately. "Indeed, I have been so focused on other matters that I haven't dedicated enough time to my own progress," he admitted.

Shifting his gaze to Lily and Emma, he extended his divine sense to sense their cultivation realms. "Lily has been making great strides," he remarked. 

"She is already at the peak of the eighth level of the Spirit Warrior realm, despite starting her cultivation journey later than the rest of us."

"It must be the effect of her special physique, the Heavenly Yin Physique. It's no wonder she has made such remarkable progress."

Turning his attention to Emma, Yuan's eyes glimmered with admiration. "And Emma is truly exceptional. Her cultivation has reached the peak of the seventh level of the Spirit Warrior realm, despite not possessing any special physique or bloodline. Her comprehension ability is truly off the charts."

Nora interjected, acknowledging the extraordinary nature of Emma's achievements. [There must be something special about her. It's unheard of for a person without any special bloodline or physique to reach the Spirit Warrior realm. Emma possesses a hidden talent that sets her apart.]

Yuan nodded in agreement. "Indeed, there must be something within Emma that makes her so exceptional. I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have her as my wife. Her dedication, talent, and unwavering support continue to inspire me on my own cultivation path."

With a gentle smile on his face, Yuan turned to his two mothers, Anna and Grace, his elder sister, Lily, and his two beloveds, Emma and Xi Meili. "While Martha prepares our meal, how about we take this opportunity to cultivate?" he suggested.

They all nodded in agreement, recognizing the importance of strengthening themselves for the challenges that awaited them in the capital. 

Anna spoke up, her eyes filled with determination. "Dear is right. In the capital, strength is crucial. There are numerous powerful mages and the magic academy is filled with arrogant sons and daughters of nobles. It is wise for us to elevate our own strength."

Grace chimed in, her voice resolute. "We cannot afford to be complacent. The journey ahead is fraught with uncertainties, and we must be prepared for whatever may come our way."

Lily, who had experienced the elitism and competitiveness of the magic academy firsthand, nodded in agreement. 

"I have seen the arrogance of those with noble backgrounds. If we want to make our mark in the capital and protect ourselves and each other, we must become even stronger."

Emma, always determined and focused, added, "The capital holds countless opportunities and dangers. By cultivating diligently, we can seize those opportunities and face the challenges with confidence."

Xi Meili, though not as experienced in cultivation as the others, understood the significance of their words. 

"Husband, I will cultivate diligently to become stronger, so I can support you and protect our family," she declared with determination shining in her eyes.

Yuan's heart swelled with pride and gratitude for his family's unwavering commitment. "I am fortunate to have all of you by my side," he said sincerely. 

"Together, we will cultivate, grow stronger, and overcome any obstacles that lie ahead."

Yuan, Anna, Grace, Lily, Emma, and Xi Meili positioned themselves on the wooden floor of the room, sitting in a lotus position. 

They chose not to sit on the beds, aware that their intensive cultivation might cause them to sweat and potentially soil the clean sheets.

Once settled, Yuan reached into his system storage and retrieved a small bottle containing five Tier 5 Soul Strengthening Pills. 

[Soul Strengthening Pill] [Tier 5] [Purity: 95%]

[Effect: Permanently increases Soul Strength by 2500.]

[Description: A Spiritual Pill concocted by a mysterious alchemist.]

[Limit: 3 every 1000 years]

As he opened the bottle, a rich and sweet aroma wafted through the room, capturing the attention and curiosity of the girls.

Lily's eyes sparkled with intrigue as she inhaled the captivating scent. "What kind of pill is this? It smells incredible! I've never encountered anything quite like it," she remarked, her curiosity piqued.

Anna, Grace, and Emma shared Lily's interest and joined in her question. They gazed at Yuan, awaiting his response.

However, before Yuan could answer, Xi Meili's gaze fixated on the pill in her husband's palm. Her eyes widened with recognition as she exclaimed, "A Tier 5 Soul Strengthening Pill with 95 percent purity! I never expected you to possess one." 

"Where did you acquire it? I haven't sensed any other cultivators apart from us in this world."

Yuan wasn't surprised by Xi Meili's astute observation. He was aware of the dragon's ability to inherit memories and techniques from their ancestors, unlocking new knowledge with each realm they advanced. 

It was a mystical ability known as "bloodline inheritance" that dragons and certain divine beasts possessed.

Listening to Xi Meili's remark, Lily couldn't contain her excitement. "A Tier 5 Soul Strengthening Pill? Does it have something to do with enhancing one's soul?" she questioned, her eyes filled with curiosity.

Anna, Grace, and Emma echoed Lily's sentiment, their gazes fixed on Yuan with astonishment. They eagerly awaited his response.

Yuan nodded in affirmation. "Indeed, this is a Tier 5 Soul Strengthening Pill. It is designed to strengthen and enlarge the soul of a cultivator." 

"However, there are also cultivation methods to enhance the soul, but we can delve into that topic at a later time. For now, let us focus on our cultivation."

Yuan looked at his two mothers, Anna and Grace, as well as Lily, and Emma, and continued speaking. "Once each of you reaches the first level of the Spirit Master realm, I will give you a soul-strengthening pill."

"However, at the moment, your bodies are not yet strong enough to handle the potency of such a powerful soul. We must be patient and wait for the right time."

Lily, Anna, Grace, and Emma nodded in understanding. They knew the importance of timing and trusted Yuan's judgment. 

"We can wait," Lily affirmed, her determination shining in her eyes. The others echoed her sentiment, assuring Yuan that they were willing to be patient.

Xi Meili, however, chimed in with a slight smile. "As a dragon, my soul is naturally stronger than most human cultivators. I don't think I will need the soul-strengthening pill. Dragons possess innate strength in that aspect."

With everyone in agreement, the five ladies closed their eyes and focused their attention on absorbing the surrounding Spiritual Qi. 

They followed the cultivation manual carefully, channeling the energy within and harmonizing their breaths with the flow of Qi.

Yuan, observing their serene expressions, swallowed the soul-strengthening pill. As the pill dissolved in his mouth, a warm sensation spread throughout his body. 

He could sense his soul strength and mental defenses strengthening, fortifying him from within. Additionally, his divine sense expanded, extending its reach far beyond its previous limits.

Feeling the empowering effects of the pill, Yuan closed his eyes, immersing himself in his cultivation practice. 

He activated his cultivation technique, tapping into the profound insights he had gained from his training and previous experiences. 

«Empyreal Consumption skill has been activated!»

«189050/200000»

As Yuan delved deeper into his cultivation, he could sense the familiar signs of reaching his bottleneck. His body hummed with energy, and he knew that he was on the cusp of a breakthrough, ready to transcend his current limitations.

With each breath, Yuan's focus intensified, his determination burning brightly within him. He could feel the surge of energy building up inside his dantian, ready to burst forth and propel him to new heights. 

«199970/200000»

And then, in a matter of seconds, it happened. Yuan's body trembled as the energy within him erupted, tearing through the barriers that held him back. 

A wave of power surged through his veins, spreading throughout his body and enveloping him in a radiant aura.

As Yuan broke through his bottleneck and ascended to the second level of the Spirit Master realm.

A wave of exhilaration washed over him as he felt the energy course through his veins, invigorating every fiber of his being. 

It was as if a floodgate had been opened, allowing a torrent of newfound strength and vitality to surge through his body.

Yuan's senses sharpened, and he could feel the enhanced spiritual connection to the world around him. His perception of the energies and auras became clearer and more refined. 

The air felt crisper, the colors more vibrant, and even the subtlest movements seemed amplified.

With a mixture of awe and contentment, Yuan marveled at the sensation coursing through him. He had broken through to the second level of the Spirit Master realm, a significant milestone on his cultivation journey. 

The refreshing feeling enveloping his body was a testament to his progress and the rewards of his relentless training and dedication.

A smile tugged at the corners of his lips as he muttered to himself, savoring the moment. "So, this is how it feels to become a second level Spirit Master. The power and clarity that come with this advancement... it's beyond my expectations."
