As long as you were bold enough, wives from all heavens could go on maternity leave!
Having learned the Thunderous Spirit Puppet's wonderful uses, Chang Lan had already begun making selections in his mind.
Of three thousand weak waters, he would take but one ladle to drink!
Not enough...
Nowhere near enough!
Yet as countless breathtaking women from across the heavens flashed through his mind, Chang Lan chuckled and directly dismissed the thought.
Across the myriad heavens and worlds, there was the Willow God, eternal and evergreen—beauty and strength alike.
There was also Nuwa of the Primordial World; Human Dao itself had been established by her!
There were countless stunning beauties throughout the myriad worlds, every single one the dream of every shut-in.
Moreover, the Thunderous Spirit Puppet could freely alter its physique and transform into the perfect goddess from one's imagination.
Once infused with Dou Qi, it possessed formidable defensive power as well. It was already the ultimate fantasy of shut-ins!
After all, who wouldn't want a rubber wife at home!
And there was no need to worry about it leaking air!
What shut-in wouldn't want a Thunderous Spirit Puppet?
However, Chang Lan looked upon such things with disdain.
Though he was a hot-blooded man who valued looks, he was not so desperate that he needed a puppet wife to quench his thirst!
Besides, the soul imprint within the Thunderous Spirit Puppet was his own.
Even if he worked the five-fingered maiden hard, he still could not accept using the Thunderous Spirit Puppet in that manner.
As for exactly what form it should take, Chang Lan's indecisiveness flared up.
If he went out in his true appearance, he would most likely win over his future wives.
After all, his 48K pure-handsome face was right there—his charm was boundless!
Even without displaying his proud and imposing capital, winning over those women would not be difficult!
But the problem was this handsome face.
Once it appeared, it would probably cause a tremendous uproar across the Dou Qi Continent!
That would be a huge hassle...
The Thunderous Spirit Puppet's defense was astonishing. Even a Dou Emperor could not harm it in the slightest, but it had one major flaw.
The amount of Dou Qi it could contain was pitifully small; at most, it could only withstand nine stages of Dou Qi!
Once discovered by those women, the spirit puppet itself would not be harmed.
But there was a strong chance that some still-charming noblewoman might take a liking to it and secretly drag it into a side room...
With nine stages of Dou Qi, it would not have any chance to resist!
By then, the Thunderous Spirit Puppet would go out, then go in again...
It would be completely useless.
Moreover, he was obsessed with appearance. He had standards not only for women, but for himself as well.
If he had to casually transform into some ugly bastard!
Never mind whether he could investigate the timeline, he would not even be able to get past his own mental hurdle!
After thinking for a moment, Chang Lan decided to store it in the system space for now and first examine the uses of his other treasures.
"Passage Through All Heavens: recognize its master with a drop of blood, shatter the void, and travel through the myriad worlds!"
His divine sense swept over a golden reward, and Chang Lan's eyes immediately lit up.
Shattering the void and traveling through the myriad worlds sounded pretty nice.
It was simply too damn cool!
"Do not enter the Primordial World lightly..."
Seeing the system's thoughtful reminder, Chang Lan chuckled.
The Primordial World was filled with big shots!
Demon Emperor Dijun, Donghuang Taiyi.
Changyi, Xihe, Wa Huang Nuwa.
Fuxi, the Human Dao's sovereign, and Kunpeng, the Demon Master.
Heavenly Dao Hongjun...
Even a Dou Emperor would be nothing more than a tiny nobody there.
He would not even qualify to be their toy.
Even if the system had not warned him, he was not foolish enough to go looking for shit in the Primordial World.
Besides, using it required the exact location of another plane.
He was still inside the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion. Where was he supposed to find the coordinates of the myriad heavens?
With a light chuckle, Cang Lan calmed his mind and focused his breath. He mobilized the surging, sunlike vitality within his body and condensed a drop of essence blood at his fingertip.
With a thought, he merged the essence blood into the Passage Through All Heavens!
As the essence blood fused into it, the palm-sized golden token instantly rippled with rings of mysterious golden light. Like sacred radiance, it was pure and untouched by worldly dust!
Then, the holy light receded like a tide. The golden token turned illusory as well before shooting into Cang Lan's glabella.
At the same time, a chaos-colored token in Cang Lan's mind trembled faintly.
Several slender golden threads slowly drifted out of the token, leisurely unfurling like a mysterious and cheerful melody!
"Hiss—"
After floating out for a moment, the golden threads suddenly swelled into flowing gilded ribbons.
Cang Lan focused his gaze and saw that the ribbons were formed from ancient, mysterious characters.
Seeing this, Cang Lan directly mobilized his peak Spirit Realm soul power and wrapped it around the gilded ribbons.
Moments later, as his soul power absorbed them, the mysterious ancient characters within the gilded ribbons rapidly merged into his golden divine soul.
Almost at the same time, a solemn and dignified Dao voice drifted through his mind, carrying information from beyond the myriad heavens.
Cang Lan settled his mind and stilled his breath. Like an old monk in meditation, he remained utterly motionless as he received the information from the myriad heavens.
Time flew by. After an unknown amount of time had passed, Cang Lan slowly opened his eyes.
Sacred radiance flickered within them!
His gaze was profound, as though it held countless stars!
It really is a good thing!
Cang Lan praised it inwardly.
Obtaining the Passage Through All Heavens from an ordinary golden reward had truly amazed him once again!
However, for such a divine artifact to appear among ordinary golden rewards, it certainly had its flaws.
The Passage Through All Heavens could ignore the barriers between worlds!
But once he entered a world-breaking passage, the flow of time on the Dou Qi Continent would change relative to himself!
At the least, it would be several times faster. At the most, dozens of times—or even tens of millions of times faster!
That meant that once he traveled through the myriad worlds, a very, very long time might have passed on the Dou Qi Continent by the time he returned!
One had to know that love's greatest enemy was not the other woman.
It was cruel time!
If ten thousand years passed in the blink of an eye, then even if his wives did not have a change of heart, they would still...
Be gone, leaving only withered bones.
And when he looked back upon half a lifetime, there would be no one left!
Fortunately, this drawback could be resolved.
As long as a woman became his, she would receive the protection of the Passage Through All Heavens and would not be affected by the altered flow of time.
As long as he worked hard enough!
He would not have to worry that, after crossing worlds, his wives would all become beautiful skeletons.
After fusing with the Passage Through All Heavens, Cang Lan swept through the system space. His soul power landed on a ball of light, and with a thought, a miniature palace appeared in his palm.
As the palm-sized Cloud Palace floated above his hand, Cang Lan examined its full appearance.
The entire palace looked as though it had been carved from flawless white jade, gleaming with the lustrous sheen of congealed frost upon a peerless beauty's jade-like skin.
Above the palace, countless wisps of immortal mist seemed to drift faintly, making it look beautiful and dreamlike, yet touched with mystery.
"This thing can store Mount Sumeru within a mustard seed, change size at will, and is incomparably sturdy...?"
Knowing the information about the Cloud Palace, Cang Lan felt a surge of curiosity.
"Ding! The host must drip essence blood onto the Cloud Palace. The Innate Profound Spirit within the Cloud Palace will then acknowledge you as its master and obey your command!"
Not long after Cang Lan took out the Cloud Palace, the system's notification suddenly rang beside his ear.
"Blood recognition again!?"
Hearing the system prompt, Chang Lan reluctantly condensed another drop of blood essence.
Luckily, there were only a few treasures he actually fancied!
Otherwise, just claiming them all through blood...
He would be drained dry and drop dead.
But he had a reason he absolutely had to use this drop of blood essence.
He had been in the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion for so long, using the sky as his blanket and the earth as his bed, living like a wandering immortal.
With the Heavenly Treasure Hall, he at least had a place to stay.
As the blood essence merged into the palace, a brilliant flash of scarlet bloodlight swept past.
Then a pure, gentle radiance burst forth from the palace, like moonlight pouring down in a silver river of light.
Once the blood essence had completely merged with it, the full layout inside the Cloud Palace appeared in Chang Lan's mind.
The magnificent sight was utterly staggering!
To see the whole thing more clearly, Chang Lan thought to himself.
"Bigger...! Bigger...! Bigger...!"
