Heavenly Seductive Lotus

Your wedding to the two Queens went off without a hitch, allowing for the smooth creation of the Yang Empire! With the increase in population and infrastructure they bring, the Empire’s expansion becomes much quicker than when the Three Region Kingdom was expanding alone. While your Kingdom was once smaller than your allies, it quickly rivals them, with the Empire itself exceeding them. Only the Sayomi Empire rivals your Yang Empire that your allied with. It also seems that you particularly become quite well known for your insane combat ability, deterring most of the other kingdom and Empire’s from wishing to attack you without provocation. Especially since your space artifacts can’t easily be gotten anywhere else, and you seem to be peaceful, so it simply makes better sense to maintain a good trade relationship!

Wakamatsu Mami gave birth to a girl she named Ichihara Mami. Haruyama Hiromi gave birth to a girl named Noya Hiromi. With how busy they both are, they babies spend most of their time with your other partners. You create space gates for them to come and go with ease, making it easier for them to come back. You also create space gates around the Empire to make it easier to travel within the territory, improving internal commerce. Your cultivation has also risen to the sixth level.

Today, you notice someone approaching the Empire, letting their powerful presence out, likely to garner your attention. You teleport out to see who it is. When you do, they immediately come to a holt, and pulling back their presence.

“How should I refer to your Excellency?” You ask, being cordial as your aware the man in front of you is an Immortal realm cultivator!

“My name is Nakao Eiji, King of this continent’s Imperial Empire!” He explains, making you realize how serious the situation is. The Imperial Empire is said to be one of the main powerhouses within this world. The Empire they have on this continent is merely a branch of the Main Empire. It’s also known that each branch is ruled by an immortal cultivatior. If you really had to fight him, the entire Empire would work to crush you!

“To what do I owe the honor of meeting King Eiji?” You ask, warily.

“I’ve come to negotiate with you King Yang!” He says peacefully, as if he hadn’t boldly emitted his presence throughout your Empire.

“Very well! Step through here, and we can talk privately!” You say, forming a void corridor.

“As you wish!” He says, before quickly entering. You join him, and take your seats.

“So what business do you wish to discuss?” You ask, still not letting your guard down.

“The Imperial Empire has somewhat taken an interest with you, specifically your terrifying potential. When you first arrived in this world, you were barely as strong as a commoner. Now after only a few years, you’ve already taken seat of a newly formed Empire! Even if most of this was off the backs others, to accomplish this is no simple feat. For this reason, the Imperial Empire desires you to help create space gates for it” King Eiji explains.

“I see! What exactly will I receive in return?” You ask.

“I’m not entirely sure! They gave me a pill to give you. They said you’d know when you see it!” King Eiji says, before taking the pill bottle out. When he does so, you immediately feel a resonance with the true seductive lotus. Sensing this, your confident that this pill can cause some type of benefit for it.

“They said all I have to do is form space gates for them?” You ask.

“Yes! In fact, they said your to be given it in advance if you agree! While they are a few space masters within our Empire, non are at the level to create cross-continent space gates. It’s believed that you may be the only one in this world who can accomplish this for us. With easier access between branches and the main one, we’d benefit quite heavily!” King Eiji explains.

“Then I accept!” You say, excited to test this pills effect.

“Here’s a space ring and the pill. Inside the ring you’ll find the materials needed, as well as the locations!” He explains.

“Very well! If that’s all, I should enter retreat to refine this pill!” You say.

“Good! Then I’ll see myself out!” King Eiji says, before leaving.

You then shift to a vacant field far away, before taking the pill! As you do, you notice the changes occur immediately! The lotus takes on a more intricate pattern, it’s bright glow becomes fiercer, beginning to omit waves of space ****! It’s size also drastically increases, before is Yang qi starts to flood your body! You feel your space and seductive powers increase dramatically, as your cultivation also rises. Then the world qi all around starts to fluctuate. When the World qi baptism strikes, the power of the heavens also descends. Not only does you qi rapidly improve in quality, but it starts evolving into immortal qi. Your body itself is transformed into pure energy, completely reforming its constitution. As you body finishes reforming, your baptism clears, and your qi stabilizes its new state. Your true seductive lotus has evolved into the heavenly seductive lotus! Not only is it’s increased cultivation rate effect improved, it now passively improves your space and seductive abilities!

Unlike the other major realms, the minor realms for the Immortal realm is denoted as eras. Meaning that your new cultivation is Immortal realm first era. What’s more, those that share your bloodline also receive an increase in strength and aptitude. When you open your eyes, your new immortal sense is extremely powerful. With the power of being immortal and your **** mastery of space, your capable of sensing everything within the continent and more! With this you teleport back home to explain the journey your heading on, as well as explaining the disturbance you caused with your breakthrough. You then start rapidly teleporting to the locations you were told to form space gates. With the increase in your cultivation and space ****, you make easy work of your travel time, taking only a minute or two to reach each location. The forming of the space gates is a bit more arduous of a process, taking several hours to make. When you finish them all, you head to the main branch of the Imperial Empire, to inform them. The ruler of the main branch is Yabe Magobei!

“Thank you for your hard work King Yang! Your help is greatly appreciated!” King Magobei says.

“It’s really nothing, especially after taking the pill you granted me!” You say.

“About that, let me test something!” He says, before striking out. Realizing he only wishes to test your strength, you send your own fist to meet his head on. As the fists clash, both forces are effectively neutralized, demonstrating that the forces were nearly equal!” Extraordinary! Despite only being in the first era, your capable of fully neutralizing my fist, when I’m at the third era! It seems I’ve underestimated your potential! I also greatly underestimated the benefits you’d gain from the heavenly seduction pill!” He laughs. From this you realize that unlike Aoi, he hasn’t realized you possessed the true seductive lotus, and merely wanted to offer a pill to somewhat improve your seductive ability! This makes you quite hesitant, as it could cause him to see you as a threat. Even with your current ability, you don’t wish to face of against the Imperial Empire!

“Yes! I hope we can maintain a cooperative relationship!” You say, steering away from the pill situation.

“I do to! We wish to form a few new branches in the future, so we’d appreciate your cooperation when the time comes!” King Magobei says.

“I’ll be more than happy to! If that’s everything, I’ll return home!” You say.

“Yes! I hope to see you soon!” King Magobei says.

“Likewise!” You say, before teleporting away.
