In the sea of consciousness, stimulated by the mysterious starlight, the Harmony Spirit Seed suddenly lit up, bringing forth the phantom of the nine Blue Lotus leaves into full manifestation.

Qing Muling now understood that the ultimate form of this Harmony Spirit Seed would be a Blue Lotus born from the chaos of the vast void, possessing incredible powers far surpassing ordinary Innate Spirit Treasures.

Rooted in her, it could even give rise to a complete great world.

Given enough time, this great world could grow to a level comparable to The Great Void or the Misty Illusion Secret Realm. The key was having enough time, time measured in eons.

Threads of subtle starlight merged into his Divine Soul, bringing Qing Muling an indescribable comfort, as if his entire body was soaked in a warm spring, feeling warm and cozy all over.

Almost immediately, he felt his magical power, and Dao comprehension begin to transform, condense, and elevate at an unbelievable pace.

The starlight contained incredible Dao Rhyme, propelling Qing Muling’s cultivation realm to climb higher and higher. In just a few dozen breaths, he had smoothly perfected the Feather Transformation Realm and irresistibly broke through to the Ascending to Immortality realm.

There was no fundamental difference between the Feather Transformation and Ascending to Immortality realms; the former refined the body, while the latter refined the Divine Soul. Once both were perfected, one could attempt to break through to the Elemental Immortal realm and become a true immortal.

In essence, if one was willing to invest enough high-end resources or possessed an exceptional destiny, this process could be completed smoothly and quickly.

This was how Xuebing Xuan and the other ladies had done it before, leveraging Qing Muling’s supreme fortune and continuous opportunities, coupled with the generous resource investment from their Dao Lineage, allowing them to quickly complete this process and achieve a flawless Elemental Immortal Dao fruit.

As the mysterious starlight continued to pour into the Harmony Spirit Seed, the tenth phantom of the Blue Lotus leaf began to emerge, becoming clearer and clearer.

In just a quarter of an hour, Qing Muling’s cultivation had broken through the early stages of the Ascending to Immortality realm and stepped into the middle phase, with no signs of stopping. However, the Harmony Spirit Seed reaped even more benefits.

Above the palace dome, countless stars twinkled and reflected each other’s light, and boundless, magnificent starlight rolled down like waves, continuously merging into the Harmony Spirit Seed. Its surface Dao patterns became clearer and more complex, enriching the Dao Rhyme in the sea of consciousness by more than tenfold, slowly integrating into Qing Muling’s Divine Soul and body.

The luminous roots around the Harmony Spirit Seed became denser and thicker, deeply penetrating different spaces, drawing an immeasurable essence of spiritual energy continuously back.

Beside Qing Muling, a cloud of misty, luminous starlight emerged, and from within it stepped out Yu Lingzhou, followed by Dragon Ritual Princess, Yueyi Heavenly Lord, and Su Yuanzhen.

“This place… so it is!”

Yu Lingzhou looked up at the palace dome, understanding most of it in an instant. She reached out her delicate hand to catch a strand of magnificent starlight that had just fallen, and it obediently merged into her body.

As a result, she felt a negligible increase in her cultivation limit.

The Lolita Elder’s pure and youthful face showed a hint of surprise. At her current realm, it was extremely difficult to improve her cultivation, and ordinary opportunities were of little use to her. However, the divine power contained in this starlight clearly exceeded her past understanding.

If one could cultivate here for a long time, the efficiency would be at least a hundred times higher than in ordinary worlds? Perhaps even more! And this was entirely different from the effects of time acceleration formations.

Dragon Ritual Princess looked around, feeling both surprised and a bit helpless. This grand and magnificent hall was clearly a treasure of unknown origin, mysterious and unfathomable.

“Could we possibly move it back?”

Yueyi Heavenly Lord asked softly. This object was definitely an Innate Spirit Treasure, and among the top tier at that. If their Dao Lineage could have it to bolster their fortune, they could definitely cultivate a massive number of elite disciples in a short period, allowing the Dao Lineage’s new generation to undergo a transformational improvement.

“Let’s not force it; we’ll see how fate decides,” sighed Yu Lingzhou, not holding much hope for this. Of course, if Qing Muling had a chance, she would be happy to see it happen.

Yueyi Heavenly Lord nodded and signaled half of the elders to come over to protect Qing Muling, while the remaining female immortals could try to absorb the mysterious starlight in the hall to enhance their cultivation.

As if sensing the influx of outsiders, the mysterious hall trembled slightly, and the walls flickered with light and shadow, scattering into flowing light, revealing the awe-inspiring view outside the hall.

It was an incredibly vast and magnificent chaos nebula, with the entire hall located on the edge of the nebula, like a tiny grain of sand on the edge of a vast ocean.

Yu Lingzhou glanced at it and was horrified to find that her robust magical power was draining away like quicksand. In a blink of an eye, more than a third had been lost, and it was on the verge of depletion.

Of course, with the Lolita Elder’s composure, this surprise was not enough to unsettle her. She calmly introspected and found that along with the loss of magical power, wisps of grey mist were also leaving her body. As they separated, she was enveloped by an indescribable sense of refreshment and comfort.

This grey mist had no definite form, existing between the tangible and intangible, faintly carrying the aura of tribulation, karma, and karmic forces. Once they left the body, they were enveloped and obliterated by the countless magnificent starlight.

Even with Yu Lingzhou’s insight, she was unaware that such impurities and flaws existed within her, or rather, imperfections at the level of the body and Divine Soul.

“Is it really… this miraculous?”

Yu Lingzhou was both shocked and delighted. As a Daluo-level powerhouse, her Dao body and Divine Soul had long reached perfection in the ordinary sense, with no room for improvement. However, the opportunity here overturned her past knowledge and allowed her to advance further in the realm of the impossible.

After this event, perhaps even the Quasi Holy Emperor Realm, which once seemed unreachable, now held a glimmer of hope for her?

And it wasn’t just her; the other ladies also received similar benefits, shedding their impurities and making their Dao bodies and Divine Souls even more flawless.

Three hours later, Qing Muling reopened his eyes.

The first thing he saw was the many different beautiful faces, pairs of eyes filled with concern watching him intently.

Different from before, their appearances, temperament, and manners seemed to have undergone subtle changes, becoming even more radiant than before.

Observing with a secret technique, he saw that the ladies’ destinies and fortunes had improved considerably, due not only to Qing Muling’s influence but also to the significant contribution of the mysterious hall.

“How much benefit did you all receive?”

Qing Muling asked with a smile.

“Not bad, cultivation has increased a bit,” said Dragon Ritual Princess softly. She was already at the Golden Immortal realm, so her strength did not increase as noticeably as Qing Muling’s, but it was still a significant gain. Su Yuanzhen’s situation was similar to hers, and the other ladies were the same.

Qing Muling pondered. It seemed the opportunities within this hall were not equally distributed, and how much one could gain depended entirely on individual fate, not something that could be forced.

His own cultivation had now stabilized in the late stages of the Ascending to Immortality realm, advancing an entire realm, with his body and Divine Soul also receiving additional optimization and enhancement. Of course, the Harmony Spirit Seed benefited the most, with the tenth phantom of the Blue Lotus leaf fully differentiated and solidified, indistinguishable from the other nine leaves.

The lifespan increase at the Ascending to Immortality realm was not significant, but his fortune had doubled from the peak of the Feather Transformation Realm and was still on the rise.

The Elemental Immortal Realm was no longer far from Qing Muling.

“…Hmm, the effect of the Light of Dao Enlightenment should have improved again, but should I inform them right away?”

Qing Muling mused to himself. To the ladies, the Ascending to Immortality realm was not considered high, but it was barely enough to engage in dual cultivation with a Golden Immortal-level Dao Companion.

Of course, if he did not wish to rush, waiting until the Elemental Immortal-level to engage in dual cultivation would be ideal.

However, Dragon Ritual Princess had long set her sights on Qing Muling, and upon learning of his breakthrough to a new realm, she would undoubtedly be eager to make such a request, and Qinghuan Emperor would urge him on.

So when the time came, Dragon Ritual Princess would get her wish, and Su Yuanzhen, as a bridal attendant, would also benefit. But with the two of them taking turns, it was uncertain how much benefit Xuebing Xuan and the other senior sisters would receive.

Another benefit was that Qing Muling could now support a large number of female immortals at the peak of the Xuan Immortal realm to overcome the tribulation to Golden Immortal. For any Supreme Dao Lineage’s power, Golden Immortals were already considered strategic-level forces, and naturally, the more, the better.
