Chapter 295 – Mu Yinghua: You are filial!


After three days, when Qing Muling, with slightly unsteady steps, once again stepped out of the Supreme Sect Master’s chamber, he found the clear sky and the bright golden morning light outside to be exceptionally beautiful.

He exhaled comfortably, slowly stretched, and performed a set of exercises. In his sea of consciousness, the Harmony Creation Blue Lotus and the Creation Heavenly Palace radiated brilliantly, pouring down pure spiritual energy like a river from the heavens. His nearly exhausted Divine Soul and Dao Body rapidly recovered at a visible speed, returning to peak condition in no time.

The past three days, which translated to three thousand days and nights in the time-accelerated formation, had been the most pleasurable yet exhausting period since Qing Muling entered the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace. He had been relentlessly used as a tool by Mu Yinghua.

Although both parties benefited greatly, Qing Muling still felt somewhat overwhelmed. The terrifying power of a Daluo-level combatant was equally formidable in bed.

Especially given their respective statuses, Mu Yinghua’s wild onslaughts received an extra boost. The more Qing Muling yielded and tried to stop, the more excited she became, refusing to relent and leaving him utterly subdued.

Qing Muling rubbed his lower back, feeling as if his bones had lightened by a few pounds. Fortunately, he was about to become a True Immortal. Once his Divine Soul and Dao Body were fully enhanced, his resilience would undoubtedly improve, and he wouldn’t need to fear his master as much.

The senior sisters outside might feel a bit resentful, but three days wasn’t too long for them to bear. He planned to spend some quality time with them next.

After standing outside for a moment, Qing Muling returned to the chamber.

On the jade bed, Mu Yinghua was already dressed in a magnificent red-gold cloud-patterned gown embroidered with phoenixes. Her stunning beauty, radiant as morning dew, was accentuated by her sparkling eyes and fair skin. Her hair was adorned with a jade phoenix crown and golden hairpins, exuding both elegance and grandeur.

As for certain artistic albums, private lingerie, and indescribable tools in the room, they had long been neatly put away. The bed was tidy and clean, with a faint, elegant fragrance lingering in the air.

At this moment, she was reading messages from a communication jade talisman. As the Supreme Sect Master of such a powerful force, she had numerous affairs to personally attend to. This was both supreme authority and an inescapable responsibility.

The messages in the communication jade talisman were flashing:

[Fairy Butterfly: The defense line in the Liuhua Star Domain has been targeted by several Magic Clan progeny troops. Senior Sister Yingying has been sent with a team to support, including three Taiyi Golden Immortals and twenty-four Golden Immortals. Stabilizing the situation shouldn’t be a problem.]

[Fenghua Fairy: Are there no Daluo-level beings in those troops?]

[Fairy Butterfly: None have been found so far. If any anomalies are detected, Senior Sister Qingyao is patrolling the nearby star domain and can be called for support.]

[Yun Miaozhi: We are quite fortunate. Since the onset of the magic calamity, our sect’s core territory has rarely faced large-scale attacks. Even when they occur, they are quickly resolved! Unlike other Dao Lineages, where the leaders are constantly busy firefighting, it’s a mess!]

[Yu Lingzhou: That’s because Junior Brother’s fortune suppresses them, so the higher-ups among the aliens tend to overlook this area. Another reason is that there aren’t many dark and desolate star domains near our Cloud Dream Immortal Domain, so there aren’t many alien nests hiding around.]

[Mingyi, the Heavenly Master: Exactly. Thanks to Junior Brother’s contributions, those female cultivator sects have enough strength to guard their territories.]

[Fairy Butterfly: Our alliance’s situation is relatively stable, and the Dao Court is doing fine. However, other forces are struggling. Some Dao Lineages that had good relations with us have requested support, hoping we can send people to help defend.]

[Ice Falcon: We can support them, but they must follow the rules and pay the appropriate compensation. If they can’t afford it, they can become our sect’s vassals and give up their independence.]

[Yu Lingzhou: Of course, that’s a must…]

Qing Muling glanced at the messages, finding them uninteresting. He moved behind his master and began to massage her shoulders diligently, in a proper manner.

“You are quite filial,” Mu Yinghua said softly, her beautiful eyes shimmering with affection.

“Yes, it’s my duty as a disciple,” Qing Muling replied. After spending so much time together, their relationship had grown increasingly intimate. He adored his master, and she felt the same, their passionate emotions barely concealed, almost overwhelming him.

After a while, Mu Yinghua finished her work, put away the communication jade talisman, and pulled Qing Muling into her arms for a moment of tender affection before reluctantly letting go.

“Alright, let’s go. We’ll invite a few Emperors to help you with your tribulation crossing.”

“Yes, Master,” Qing Muling agreed, knowing that this matter couldn’t be delayed.

Soon, Xinyu Emperor received the news, followed by Qinghuan and Tongying Emperors. Lan Hua and Jinglan Emperors, who were discussing Dao over tea, also learned of it. Surprised and delighted, they immediately set aside their tasks and gathered at the Imperial Dao Peak’s cave mansion.

“All the sisters are here. Let’s begin without delay,” Xinyu Emperor said briefly. With five Quasi Holy Emperors protecting Qing Muling, success was assured.

Qing Muling unfolded the Creation Heavenly Palace and entered with the Emperors, while Mu Yinghua activated the sect’s Mountain Protection Array and ordered the Supreme Elders on duty to be on alert.

Although it was unlikely anyone would cause trouble at the sect’s main altar, it was better to be cautious.

Inside the Creation Heavenly Palace.

As Qing Muling unlocked layer after layer of seals and fully released his aura, the high heavens responded immediately. Boundless tribulation clouds surged, and the sky above Imperial Dao Peak quickly darkened.

Soon, with deafening thunder, the first bolt of tribulation lightning, black with a tinge of red, struck down, exploding outside the star-lit hall.

A magnificent canopy of fortune, spanning over a thousand acres and layered seven times, hung above the hall. Despite the relentless bombardment of tribulation lightning, the canopy remained intact, unmoved like a mountain, displaying various wondrous phenomena such as the birth and death of galaxies, the opening of Harmony, ancient deities, and celestial palaces.

The Creation Heavenly Palace trembled slightly, its mysterious starlight cascading like a river, continuously pouring into the Harmony Creation Blue Lotus. Beyond the existing eleven phantom Blue Lotus leaves, the twelfth, thirteenth, and fourteenth leaves began to appear, gradually becoming clearer and more solid over time.

Qing Muling now understood that the complete form of the Harmony Creation Blue Lotus would have thirty-three leaves, symbolizing the thirty-three heavens.

However, to fully manifest all thirty-three leaves, even achieving the Quasi Holy Emperor level might not be enough. He would need to attain true transcendence, becoming an eternal being, to accomplish such a feat.

Moreover, the newly evolved three leaves did not correspond to specific divine abilities but instead represented triple enhancements in fortune, blessings, and destiny.

In his sea of consciousness, the Harmony Creation Blue Lotus’s light-quality roots, dense as a spider’s web, danced slowly. They had grown thicker and more resilient, extending into deeper mysterious spaces, continuously absorbing and feeding back various miraculous spiritual essences into Qing Muling’s Divine Soul and Dao Body.

A typical True Immortal’s lifespan exceeds a million years, but Qing Muling, as the embodiment of the Harmony Creation Blue Lotus, had a lifespan surpassing three million years, comparable to a Xuan Immortal. This didn’t include certain treasures that could extend his lifespan, which also worked for him.

As for his fortune at the True Immortal level, with the new Blue Lotus leaves’ blessings, it had increased tenfold from the peak of the Elemental Immortal level and was still rising.

“…His current fortune alone is comparable to the entire human cultivation world in the Great Void,” Tongying Emperor remarked, her beautiful eyes narrowing as she scrutinized the increasingly magnificent canopy of fortune.

“Maybe even more!” Qinghuan Emperor murmured. “Calling him the child of fortune of this era is no exaggeration. When he becomes a Quasi Holy Emperor, perhaps the ancient era’s grand immortal age might truly be revived through him?”

The other three Emperors remained silent, clearly agreeing with Qinghuan Emperor’s view.

Qing Muling’s extraordinary fortune highlighted his own monstrous talent and the current decline of the Great Void’s cultivation world, which couldn’t compare to the legendary ancient immortal age, not even by a fraction.

Ignoring the external tribulation lightning, Qing Muling focused on refining his magical power and stabilizing his True Immortal realm. His various divine abilities underwent transformations, reaching new heights.

His ability to cultivate using spiritual herbs and grasses saw the most significant change. With a single use, he could enhance their medicinal power by forty thousand years. If used every three days, even an ordinary wild grass could be transformed into a genuine Heavenly Medicine.

The divine ability “Heavenly Palace Paradise” could now, within half an hour, transform an area of twenty thousand miles in radius and five hundred miles in depth into a spiritual energy-rich paradise, including purifying polluted spirit veins and mines.

Given enough time, Qing Muling could turn the countless desolate lands in the Cloud Dream Immortal Domain into fertile grounds, supporting tenfold or even a hundredfold the number of disciples.

However, compared to these abilities, Qing Muling was more concerned with his survival skills. At the True Immortal level, his “Stealth and Shadow” ability allowed him to perfectly hide his presence and destiny for six hours, making him undetectable even to Quasi Holy Emperors.

“Distance as Close as the Horizon” could now be used once a day, allowing him to instantly reach any place he had been before, bypassing all spatial and temporal constraints, and no formation or restriction could trap him.

His fortune-sensing ability could now probe Golden Immortal-level opponents, revealing all their secrets without them noticing.

His void-shifting ability had more than doubled, exceeding fifty million miles, allowing him to escape any perilous situation or formation restriction instantly. Only multiple Quasi Holy Emperors could effectively restrain him.

“Temporal Reversal” extended to five hundred breaths, causing a small area of time to rewind. Its range was ten feet around him, but each use permanently cost nine thousand years of lifespan, with no means of recovery unless he reached a higher realm.

The divine ability to temporarily boost his cultivation level required burning twenty thousand years of lifespan each time, granting him peak Taiyi Golden Immortal strength for one hour.

His ability to detect all formations, restrictions, traps, and curses now covered nearly forty thousand miles, making it impossible for anyone below peak Taiyi Golden Immortal to escape his detection.

“Once his cultivation stabilizes, should we send him to accompany Sister Fengge?” Xinyu Emperor pondered, using divine senses to communicate with Mu Yinghua.

“Yes, Emperor,” Mu Yinghua replied calmly. Fengge Emperor’s breakthrough was crucial for the future of Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace.

Currently, the female cultivator alliance’s internal power was roughly evenly divided into five parts, with Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace having a slightly larger share but still limited.

With each force having only one Quasi Holy Emperor, no one could dominate. Decisions were made based on majority rule, which was disadvantageous for Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace. If Fengge Emperor advanced, their influence within the alliance would significantly increase.

Tongying Emperor, beside them, tilted her head, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she smiled, “Sister Xinyu, isn’t it time to fulfill our previous agreement? Our Goddess Sect’s ancestor’s injuries can’t be delayed any longer!”

“No way!” Xinyu Emperor refused outright. “Either your sleeping Emperor comes here, or you wait until Qing Muling becomes a Great Golden Immortal.”

In short, Xinyu Emperor would not allow Qing Muling to leave Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace, not even for allied forces.

Qinghuan Emperor smiled slightly, “Then, can I borrow Muling for a while to accompany me in cultivation?”

“…”
