My Celestial Ascension - Chapter 470: Affinity Awakening Pills
“Huh?” Yuan was shocked to see the confused and concerned look on her face. Didn’t she see him talking with the mysterious figure?
“What happened? Why are you looking puzzled like that?” Anna asked, tilting her head in confusion. She felt very bewildered by the way her son was looking at them.
“Huh? Didn’t you guys see the mysterious figure I was talking with?” Yuan asked, a puzzled expression on his face.
Upon hearing this, his wives looked at him with strange expressions, feeling very confused as they hadn’t seen any mysterious figure or anything unusual.
Seeing their bewildered faces, Yuan felt strange. Suddenly, a thought crossed his mind, but he had to confirm it before jumping to conclusions.
‘Don’t tell me I was the only one who saw the mysterious figure…’ Yuan thought, swallowing nervously. ‘Was I inside a concealment formation while the mysterious figure appeared?’
‘The formation at the entrance was a grade-nine formation. It isn’t completely impossible…’ Yuan then looked at his wives.
“Yuan, are you really okay? What mysterious figure are you talking about? We didn’t see anything at all. You were just standing there, staring at the statue,” Anna responded, puzzled and concerned.
She quickly approached Yuan and checked his condition. After confirming that Yuan was fine, she finally sighed in relief.
Yuan chuckled, pulling Anna into his embrace before kissing her lips passionately. “Don’t worry, wife, I’m perfectly fine. And about the mysterious figure, I indeed saw him and had a small chat with him.”
‘It wasn’t actually a chat; I just listened to him,’ Yuan sighed inwardly.
“What? You talked with a mysterious figure that we couldn’t see? Is this for real?” Lily was taken aback and looked at Yuan with a shocked expression.
“Indeed. Though it was a one-sided conversation, I gained a lot from it,” Yuan replied.
“This is unbelievable… we only saw you staring at the statue for a while in a daze. I can’t believe you were having a conversation with someone.”
After that, Yuan told them about the ‘gift’ the mysterious figure had prepared for them, which was stored inside a special chamber behind the statue. Upon hearing this, his wives’ eyes shone with excitement.
Although Yuan didn’t specify what kind of items were stored inside the special chamber, they were still excited about their gifts, knowing that the items inside would be of great use to them.
“Now let’s go and find out what is stored inside the special chamber!” Lily exclaimed with an excited grin on her face and headed behind the statue.
Yuan chuckled and followed his bossy sister with a strange look on his face. His other wives did the same and followed them.
Upon arriving behind the statue, they saw a massive iron door, tightly shut, with no handle to open it. On the left side of the door, there was a cut-out, suggesting that to access the chamber, one must insert something that fits the cut-out exactly.
“It seems that we need to insert a particular object to access the special chamber, and from the size of the cut-out, it’s the same size as your sword, darling,” Grace spoke after examining the cut-out on the wall. She couldn’t think of anything else besides her son’s massive sword.
“Now that I look at it carefully, it is indeed the same size as Yuan’s sword—Empyreal Oblivion!” Lily exclaimed loudly upon closer inspection.
“Let’s see if the door really opens after I insert my sword into the hole.”
Yuan quickly retrieved his Empyreal Oblivion from his system storage and inserted it into the cut-out on the wall. Instantly, the entire chamber began to vibrate slowly.
Suddenly, the iron door trembled slightly and began to move, opening slowly.
“Great! The door is open. Let’s go inside!” Lily exclaimed before rushing into the room.
Upon entering the chamber, Lily was amazed by what she witnessed before her, and her eyes widened in surprise.
“This is incredible…!” Lily muttered in a daze, seemingly stunned.
Seeing the astonished look on Lily’s face, Yuan and his other wives also entered the chamber, and just like Lily, they were surprised by what they saw.
Inside the chamber, there were rows of shelves hanging on the walls, each holding outfits made of special fabrics. In the center, a black and gold-colored outfit was displayed—it was an outfit for a male, clearly meant for Yuan.
On the other shelves were outfits for Yuan’s wives, each with unique features that resembled their personalities. For example, in one display case, there were two outfits: one was a white dress with blue embroidery using gold threads, and the other was black with golden embroidery, fitting the descriptions of Anna and Grace.
The girls were amazed by the unique appearance of the dresses; they had never seen such outfits before. They could also feel a powerful aura radiating from the outfits, marking them as rare treasures.
Each dress emitted a unique aura, different from the others. There were also a few more dresses stored inside display cases, likely meant for Mireya, Sylvia, Valeria, and any future wives Yuan might have.
“Those dresses look beautiful… I’ve never seen dresses like these before. It’s completely a new experience,” Anna muttered in a dazed voice, her eyes sparkling with excitement at the prospect of trying on the new dresses.
“How about we try on those dresses?” Emma suggested, her face lit up with excitement.
‘Don’t those dresses look very similar to the ones worn by cultivators in cultivation manga and novels?’ Yuan pondered, looking at the outfits.
Before he could say anything, his wives approached the dresses and began to change, removing their old clothes.
‘Since those dresses are for us, it’s only right that we wear them,’ Yuan thought, smiling as he watched his wives trying to figure out how to put them on.
Soon, they figured it out and felt very comfortable in their new clothes, almost as if they weren’t wearing anything at all. The outfits were incredibly light.
Once dressed, they looked at Yuan, eager to know his opinion.
Seeing their anticipated expressions, Yuan chuckled, understanding why they were looking at him that way.
“All of you look very gorgeous in those outfits!” Yuan said with a loving smile. They did look stunning in the new dresses. Not only did the outfits enhance their beauty and provide comfort, but they also brought out their charm to a new level, leaving Yuan mesmerized.
“Thanks for the compliment, darling!” Grace quickly hugged Yuan and kissed him passionately on the lips for a short while. The others followed, each sharing a passionate kiss with Yuan.
After the kissing session ended, Rose looked at Yuan enthusiastically. “Yuan, how about you try on your new outfit? I’m sure it will look good on you.”
“Sure. Let me give it a try.”
Yuan approached the display case where his outfit was being displayed and opened it to take out the clothes. Shortly, he put on the outfit, and it fit him perfectly. Yuan could feel his body becoming very light after wearing it.
“Tell me honestly, how do I look?” Yuan asked, looking at his wives.
His wives stared at him with dazed expressions, mesmerized by his handsome appearance. Indeed, he looked incredibly handsome in the new outfit, and they couldn’t contain their excitement.
“Darling! You look incredible in that outfit, it suits you really well!” Grace exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
Anna nodded with a satisfied smile. “Indeed, you look incredibly handsome, my dear.” She then looked at her fellow sisters and said, “Wouldn’t you agree, girls?”
“Of course we agree!” Emma and the others nodded with smiles on their faces.
Yuan chuckled at their responses, then glanced at the other side of the room. Suddenly, his gaze fell on a massive treasure chest neatly arranged by the wall.
‘What could be stored inside those treasure chests?’ Yuan wondered, feeling very curious.
‘The mysterious figure told me that the gift he had prepared for us inside the chamber was something that would be very helpful. So, these clothes shouldn’t be the ‘gift’ he mentioned, right?’
‘There are three chests in front of me. There must be something very necessary for us,’ Yuan pondered with a serious look on his face.
Then he looked at his wives and said, “Let’s go and see what’s inside those treasure chests.”
His wives nodded, and they approached the treasure chests. Opening the middle chest, they noticed it was filled with pill bottles.
There were more than a hundred pill bottles inside the chests. Each of the four kinds of pill bottles had a unique design.
“Those are pills?” Lily muttered in surprise. She hadn’t anticipated that one of the chests would be filled with nothing but pills.
“And so many of them!” Rose added, equally astonished.
“Hmmm… what kind of pills are these, actually?” Yuan picked up a bottle and gently opened the lid, instantly filling the air with a sweet aroma.
“Such a fragrant smell. It feels so comfortable…” Leah muttered, closing her eyes as she inhaled the sweet aroma from the pill bottle.
“These pills are definitely very high-quality. I’m sure of it.” Yuan then took out a pill from the bottle and stared at it.
