Chapter 335: Immortal Venerable Qing Yao: Everything is for cultivation!
Illusory Mist Secret Realm.
Above the Nine Heavens, deep within the Gouli Divine Palace, in a solemn and magnificent hall.
More than twenty tall thrones were arranged in a circular formation, with only a few seats remaining empty. The rest were occupied by figures exuding an aura of endless majesty, as if ancient emperors ruling over the world.
Emperor Baiyuan and Emperor Yuanxi were also present, but their positions were relatively further back. After all, these newly returned Quasi-Saint Emperors not only outranked them in seniority, but also in cultivation.
Zi Huang and Ling Xi, the sisters, stood behind Emperor Baiyuan, listening to the discussions of these important figures.
Since the last major battle with the Palace of Calamitous Fate, where nine emperors of the Heavenly Human Race fell and two were seriously injured, they had to retreat in a sorry state from the Extreme Void Starry Sky. This superpower had been quiet for quite some time.
Of course, this was not because they had changed their ways, but because they were waiting for the return of those old fossils and living fossils who had gone out on a journey. They needed to replenish the Heavenly Human Race's Apex Level strategic combat power and then find a way to return to the Extreme Void Starry Sky to continue plotting the luck origin of this time and space world.
Now, with so many Apex Level powerhouses sitting here, the once disappeared confidence of Emperor Baiyuan, who was elegant and dignified with a touch of arrogance, returned. Secretly determined in her heart, when they returned to the Extreme Void Starry Sky in the future, she must crush the Palace of Calamitous Fate to dust!
"...So, what you're saying is that we can't intervene in the conflicts of the Extreme Void Starry Sky rashly. We must wait until their internal strife reaches a critical point and their strength is greatly diminished before considering our next move. Is that right?"
On one of the front thrones, an old and majestic figure asked.
"Yes, Ancestor!" Emperor Yuanxi respectfully replied, "This is the conclusion we reached after discussing together. Due to the restoration of the spatial passage between the Extreme Void Starry Sky and the so-called 'Upper Realm,' many Quasi-Saint Emperors who had gone to the Upper Realm in the past have now begun to return. The direct consequence of this is the rapid increase in the overall strength of the human cultivation world!"
"If we, the Heavenly Human Race, get involved at this time, we will undoubtedly face their unanimous opposition and immense pressure. So, it's better to temporarily stand aside and watch them fight each other!"
The Heavenly Human Race suffered a great loss before, all because of the return of the founder of the Palace of Calamitous Fate. The higher-ups absolutely cannot make the same mistake again.
"Well, that makes sense!"
The old and majestic figure nodded lightly, "However, we can ignore the conflicts of the Extreme Void Starry Sky for now, but this Qin Muling... we must capture him as soon as possible! Since he is the luck child of that time and space world, a key figure in the River of Destiny, and someone who has overcome great tribulations, he absolutely cannot remain in the hands of some force in the human cultivation world. He can only belong to our Heavenly Human Race!"
Emperor Baiyuan, Emperor Yuanxi, and several other emperors had already provided detailed information about Qin Muling to these old guys. With their experienced eyes and rich experiences, they immediately understood that this young human genius was definitely not simple. As long as they could control him, at least half of the Heavenly Human Race's plan to seize the luck origin of the Extreme Void Starry Sky would succeed!
Speaking of which, Emperor Baiyuan and the others had planned to launch a surprise attack on the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace headquarters and forcibly capture Qin Muling. Unfortunately, before they could put their plan into action, the founders of the Palace of Calamitous Fate returned.
If it weren't for this unexpected turn of events, Qin Muling should have already been captured and brought back by them, right?
"Ancestor, are you suggesting..."
(Note: The translation provided is a faithful translation of the Chinese text. However, without further context, it may not fully convey the nuances and implications of the original text.)
Emperor Yuanshi hesitated and asked, "Should we arrange another secret operation to bring him back?"
"Yes! Considering his importance, it's worth making an exception and taking action!" another graceful figure spoke.
"Capture him unharmed, while also annihilating that female cultivator sect, and then return before other sects can react. This is the most beneficial move for our race!"
With the strength of the Heavenly Human Race, once Qin Muling arrives here, no one can think of snatching him back. It's already difficult for outsiders to enter the Illusory Mist Secret Realm, let alone confront these old fogeys head-on.
"In that case, we will prepare!" the Emperor Yuanshi immediately said. He also wanted to take this opportunity to redeem himself.
These old fogeys who returned from different time and space worlds are not ordinary Quasi-Saint Emperors. They have mostly shed one or even two bodies and have powerful Innate Spiritual Treasures. They can easily kill those newly promoted Quasi-Saint Emperors one-on-one.
At the highest point of a throne, a distant and solemn voice sounded, "Those few are still in the depths of the chaotic void and can't come back for now. But with our current power, it should be enough to destroy that so-called Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace and Female Cultivators Union Alliance!"
"There's no time to waste. Let's start the operation in one day!"
"Yes, Ancestor!"
...
The Heavenly Human Race is efficient in their actions. When the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace received the warning, it hadn't even been a day.
A Multi-Storied Heavenly Boat, about three thousand zhang long and completely crystalline white, forcefully broke into the outskirts of the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace's territory, ignoring the inquiries and warnings from the female cultivator patrol teams.
After several spatial shifts, the Multi-Storied Heavenly Boat had approached the virtual continent where the sect's main altar was located.
"...Activate the mountain protection formation, all elders take your positions, prepare to face the enemy!" Mu Yinghua, with a serious expression, commanded on the peak of Imperial Dao Peak. At the same time, she had someone inform Emperor Qing Huan and the others. The enemy that had come this time was not to be underestimated. It would require all the Quasi-Saint Emperors to take action together to have a chance of overcoming this crisis.
Unfortunately, Qin Muling had not returned yet. If he were here with his terrifying luck, the chances of their victory would increase by at least three times. But for now, with nine Quasi-Saint Emperors guarding the sect and relying on the power of the mountain protection formation, they didn't need to worry too much.
A large number of flower illusions flashed by, and Emperor Xin Yu and Emperor Feng Ge appeared by her side. Following them were Qing Huan, Tong Ying, Lan Hua, Jing Lan, and four other emperors.
Lastly, two stunning and coldly proud women in Daoist robes appeared. They were both beautiful and graceful, wearing snow-white crane feather cloaks. They were the two direct disciples brought back by Immortal Venerable Qing Yao when she returned: Emperor Jinghuan and Emperor Yunhu.
Seeing these two, Mu Yinghua felt slightly relieved. They were both formidable individuals who had shed two bodies. Their magical powers and divine abilities were unfathomable. Ordinary Quasi-Saint Emperors would only be sending themselves to their deaths if they faced them.
If worse comes to worst, Immortal Venerable Qing Yao's incarnation of evil thoughts is also cultivating in the secret realm on the back mountain. As long as she takes action, they should be able to hold their ground.
"Is there an invasion by external enemies? Can we confirm which force it is?"
Emperor Qing Huan asked, somewhat surprised, "Now that the overall strength of Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace has explosively increased, which force dares to act recklessly?"
"It should be the Heavenly Human Race," Mu Yinghua frowned and said, "It's really strange. They suffered a big loss not long ago, but now they've come again. Could it be that they've recruited new reinforcements?"
Emperor Xin Yu said indifferently, "It doesn't matter. No matter how many people come, we'll make sure they have no way back!"
Mu Yinghua nodded. As a low and deep rumbling sounded throughout the vast land, the high sky suddenly became turbulent. Faint thunderous roars echoed, and an enormous tower shrouded in starlight emerged, its body swirling like a dragon. It then spread in all directions, bringing with it a suffocating pressure and an imposing aura.
In just a few breaths, endless dazzling silver light filled the void. Eventually, the entire sky land was enveloped by a mysterious and magnificent nebula, and the echoes of a phoenix's song resonated in the depths of the soul.
"Let's go! Let's meet those guys!" Emperor Xin Yu said. A large number of colorful petals and auspicious lights appeared, carrying nine beautiful and extraordinary empresses to ascend to the clouds.
The vast sky had been transformed into a kingdom of nebulae by countless silver lights. Countless colorful phoenixes flew in the sky, and brilliant lights and purple clouds filled the horizon. Above the clouds, numerous gates, formations, and altars appeared and disappeared, and bright starlight contained abundant and pure spiritual energy, like the rushing water of the Milky Way, covering the entire land.
In mid-air, a large number of high-ranking female cultivators in feathered robes and colorful dresses were stationed at various formation nodes and hubs. Under the unified command of the Supreme Sect Master, they integrated their own powers into the entire formation, ensuring its stable operation.
Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace now had no shortage of high-end combat power or resources. Therefore, the mountain-guarding formation had already been fully optimized and upgraded. The strong individuals in charge of all the formation nodes were at the level of Taiyi and Great Principal Golden Immortals, increasing the overall power of the formation by dozens of times compared to the past.
Even when facing attacks from several senior Quasi-Saint Emperors, this formation could hold for at least ten years. If the defending side had enough Quasi-Saint Emperors for mobile support, it would not be difficult to defend for several hundred years.
After waiting for a while, the massive Multi-Storied Heavenly Boat appeared at the edge of the divine consciousness perception of the emperors. After several spatial shifts, it steadily stopped outside the thick light curtain of the mountain-guarding formation.
"It's really you?!" Seeing the two emperors, Bai Yan and Yuan Xi, appear from the Multi-Storied Heavenly Boat, Mu Yinghua furrowed her brows and coldly asked, "What are you, these treacherous foreign races, doing in our Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace? Do you think that because we are a sect of female cultivators, you can bully and manipulate us?"
"Don't waste your breath!" Emperor Yuan Xi said coldly, "I have only one demand. As long as you hand over Qin Muling, we will leave. Otherwise, after today, Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace will likely be expelled from the Extreme Void Starry Sky!"
Emperor Qing Huan sneered, "Such arrogance. Have you not considered your own strength? Do you really think that the Extreme Void Starry Sky has no one?"
Bai Yan let out a sigh, "Then there's nothing to discuss. I ask all the ancestors to take action and level this sect!"
As they spoke, one after another figure with an overwhelmingly powerful aura appeared from within the ship. After a few moments, there were already fourteen Heavenly Human Race emperors outside the mountain-guarding formation. Including Bai Yan and Yuan Xi, there were sixteen in total.
...
In the depths of chaos and emptiness.
"Splurt—"
As the bright sword light cut through the sky, a giant flower with a diameter of over a hundred miles, adorned with vibrant and colorful patterns, was split in half. From the smooth, mirror-like wound, dark purple blood gushed out, followed by countless tentacle-like flesh buds rapidly wriggling and attempting to reconnect the severed halves of the body.
However, under the suppression of the Innate Hongmeng Good Fortune Azure Lotus law domain, this chaos beast king, known for its strong regenerative abilities, had no chance of escaping. Immortal Venerable Qing Yao and the silhouette of the young girl in a green dress appeared and disappeared in the void. One after another, condensed and pure destructive sword qi continuously sliced its body into smaller fragments.
The intense and resentful fluctuations of divine consciousness spread rapidly in the void, creating layers of ripples. However, its subordinates were too late to come to its aid.
After dozens of breaths, the last trace of vitality in this chaos beast was extinguished. Only a life origin crystal, the size of a water tank and emitting a dense seven-colored halo, remained in its place. The young girl in the green dress took it and handed it to Qin Muling, who then brought it back to the starship. Immortal Venerable Qing Yao went to search the lair of this beast king.
"Great, another one taken care of!"
Qin Muling said, waving his hand. A clear and pure chaos radiance, containing immense Good Fortune vitality, descended, instantly restoring the injuries on the young girl in the green dress.
"Quickly refine it! And... give me half of the Spirit Inspiring Dao Rhyme!"
The soft voice of the young girl in the green dress carried an obvious shyness. For her current self, this kind of thing was indeed somewhat embarrassing. However, in order to improve her cultivation, she could only reluctantly persist. It wasn't about indulging in pleasure; she simply enjoyed the feeling of extreme pleasure and beauty.
She firmly told herself that this was the truth of the matter, everything was for cultivation, and she would not accept any objections!
Qin Muling agreed and sent the chaos beast king's crystal into the depths of the Azure Lotus illusion, successfully digesting it. Then, the stunning beauty voluntarily made way, and the young girl in the green dress calmly approached Qin Muling, embracing and caressing him affectionately. Her beautiful head slowly lowered as she carefully massaged his legs.
"The effect is remarkable!"
The stunning beauty whispered in his ear, "After being out for so long, her cultivation has clearly improved significantly. It is estimated that with a few more times, she will achieve great success! Of course... this wouldn't be possible without the help of Junior Brother!"
"Alright, I understand."
Qin Muling rubbed his face and said somewhat helplessly.
Since exploring and adventuring in the chaotic void, Immortal Venerable Qing Yao had figured out an effective way to improve her cultivation. She entrusted all the life origin crystals of the chaos beasts and most of the Innate spiritual treasures to Qin Muling, allowing the Azure Lotus illusion to devour and refine them.
Afterwards, she and her two avatars took turns massaging his legs and sharing his Spirit Inspiring Dao Rhyme. Among them, the young girl in the green dress received the most, thus benefiting the most. At this point, her body and soul were almost completely solidified.
Once successful, it would mean that Immortal Venerable Qing Yao's cultivation would reach a higher level. She could then attempt the Three Corpse Unified Harmony and strive for the supreme Primordial Saint realm!
After a short while, Immortal Venerable Qing Yao's main body returned, bringing unexpected and abundant gains.
