Chapter 533 Dongfang Zhihan: No One Can Do What Even My Junior Brother Can’T Do!
Chapter 533: Dongfang Zhihan: What even Junior Brother couldn't do, no one else can do!
The first direct confrontation between Extreme Void Starry Sky and Hidden Mist Great World ended with the complete victory of Extreme Void Starry Sky.
The Lord of the Heavenly Fate Temple in Hidden Mist Great World fell, along with hundreds of high-ranking individuals. The Lord of the Crimson Abyss Demon Palace, seizing the opportunity, managed to escape at a great cost, but suffered heavy losses among his subordinates.
As for the two hundred patrol teams that had not yet set out, all the cultivators were imprisoned and killed by the Azure Lotus Domain. In reality, it was just an addition to the casualties.
However, after several hours, the remnants of those lucky cultivators were completely searched and soul-read by the senior sisters. As a result, Qin Muling's understanding of Hidden Mist Great World became even more detailed.
The countless years of hidden battles between the Heavenly Fate Temple and the Crimson Abyss Demon Palace have certainly been exhausting, but they have also prevented both sides from becoming complacent, resulting in deep reserves of power for both factions.
Now that both factions have lost a batch of high-ranking members, the losses are not insignificant, but they are far from being crippling. It is simply a matter of selecting a new group of powerful individuals to fill the vacancies, although there will certainly be internal struggles and disputes.
In the countless wars that have erupted between the two factions in the past, there have been many times when the losses were even greater than this. As long as there is enough time for recuperation, they can recover.
Qin Muling's gaze turned to the world membrane, where numerous floating continents were located. Countless Multi-Storied Heavenly Boat teams and cultivators were ordered to land and were not allowed to take off without the permission of the high-ranking members of the two factions. Violators would be killed without mercy.
For Hidden Mist Great World, which was now in a state of imminent war, this order was a routine operation. All foreign cultivators and merchant groups, whether they understood or not, had to temporarily stay on the floating continents and wait until the situation eased before they would be allowed to leave.
Immediately afterwards, a large group of high-level cultivators from this world emerged in streaks of light, taking control of all the floating continents and adjusting their trajectories, quickly transforming them into a magnificent and well-defended formation.
Linghu Qingya came over and said, "The barrier formation has been activated. It won't be so easy to openly attack anymore. Junior Brother, what do you plan to do? Will you use the same method as before?"
Qin Muling nodded, "Of course, but let's leave first! After we finish dealing with the matters of Extreme Void Starry Sky, we'll come back and deal with them."
Yu Xingning smiled faintly, "That's fine. Let's go back first! They probably won't sleep well for some time."
Although this barrier formation that covered the entire world was effective, its consumption was also self-evident. It was impossible to keep it activated all the time.
Since Qin Muling had already achieved his initial goal, he decided to return and deal with his own affairs first. After everything was arranged properly, he would come back and give them an even bigger surprise.
The Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore turned into a dark golden stream of light and silently disappeared into the depths of the chaotic void.
Extreme Void Starry Sky.
Upon learning of Qin Muling's return, the senior sisters who remained in the Immortal Dynasty Heavenly Court put aside their tasks and collectively went to greet him.
After meeting, there was no need for many words. Qin Muling and the senior sisters chatted for a while before ordering a grand banquet to celebrate the complete victory of their attack on Hidden Mist Great World.
"...From the current perspective, the threat from Hidden Mist Great World to us is not as great as expected."
As the cups clinked, Yu Xingning, dressed in a fiery red palace gown and exuding a pure and stunning beauty, spoke up.
"As long as we are willing to pay a price, it is not difficult to destroy this Great World. The key is what comes next. Extreme Void Starry Sky may encounter even more troublesome enemies."
Qin Muling pondered, "Extreme Void Starry Sky has already entered a turbulent period, or rather, there are too many Great Worlds in this void. Even if we eliminate one or two, there will be more and more powerful enemies appearing one after another."
In other words, the current strength of Extreme Void Starry Sky is not strong enough. Once it encounters an external world, it may pose a significant threat to its own safety, and there is no way to avoid it.
To completely change this unfavorable situation, the only way is to continuously enhance the overall strength of Extreme Void Starry Sky, allowing it to grow and evolve into a Profound Level or even Earth Level Great World, in order to truly ensure its own safety.
Qin Yulan, who was pure and tender, and exquisitely beautiful, covered her mouth and chuckled, "Junior Brother's words are not wrong. As long as Extreme Void Starry Sky becomes the strongest world in the future and achieves enlightenment and sainthood, no matter how many powerful beings from the heavens and myriad realms come, they will not be able to harm us."
Mu Yinghua held a wine jar and said in a soft and charming voice, "This goal is a bit too far away. Let's take it slow!"
Immortal Venerable Qing Yao's eyes flickered as she asked, "Junior Brother, after we deal with the Hidden Mist Great World, how many years can the Extreme Void Starry Sky remain stable?"
Qin Muling used the Heavenly Calculation Secret Technique to silently deduce for a while before answering, "It should be around a hundred years. But it's hard to say. If my identity is exposed early, it might alarm the countless ancient beings in the various realms. By then..."
At this point, Qin Muling couldn't help but feel a headache. Even if the Extreme Void Starry Sky had evolved into an Earth Level High Grade Great World, it would not be able to withstand the siege of so many ancient and powerful Great Worlds. Defeat would be almost inevitable.
To prevent all of this from happening, Qin Muling would need to reach the cultivation level of a Primordial Origin Saint Supreme, in order to crush all enemies and ensure the safety of the Extreme Void Starry Sky and his senior sisters.
Simply put, without becoming a Saint Supreme, this problem would be nearly unsolvable.
But how long would it take for Qin Muling to take that step towards becoming a Saint Supreme and achieve eternal transcendence? He had no certainty in his heart.
Linghu Xuelan looked at him and said softly, "There's no need to rush this matter. Let's take it step by step. With your luck, even if the situation is bad, it won't be too bad!"
"That's true. If even Junior Brother can't do it, then in the entire universe, no one else can," said Dongfang Zhihan, dressed in a deep purple gown, with a beautiful smile.
Qin Muling nodded and continued to drink with his senior sisters. Countless carefully cooked delicacies were brought in by the maidservants, allowing him to enjoy them to his heart's content.
In the center of the hall stood a purple-gold tripod, about a zhang tall, with three legs and two ears.
Steam rose from the mouth of the tripod, and a radiant light flowed on its surface. The golden soup inside the tripod boiled incessantly, emitting an enticing aroma that spread in the air, as if it had gathered all the most delicious delicacies in the world. It made people unable to resist the temptation.
From time to time, maidservants came over and used a ladle to scoop out the thick soup and meat from inside the tripod, placing it in jade bowls and serving them to Qin Muling and his senior sisters on the table.
This purple-gold tripod was a spoils of war that Qin Muling obtained after killing an old scholar-like Innate Chaotic Divine Demon in the depths of the chaotic void. It was a precious treasure with forty-nine layers of Innate Primordial Treasure Seal Restrictions.
The greatest use of this treasure was to greatly enhance the effectiveness and taste of Spirit Medicine ingredients, raising them by two major levels.
For example, ingredients at the level of Divine Medicine could surpass the level of Heavenly Medicine and directly reach the effect of Supreme-level Heavenly Medicine, as long as they were stewed and cooked inside the tripod for a certain period of time.
If it was a rare treasure at the Supreme-level Heavenly Medicine, stewing and cooking it in the tripod for a period of time could elevate it to the level of an Innate Primordial Treasure Medicine.
Therefore, Qin Muling and his senior sisters basically couldn't do without this precious treasure during their feasts. After all, if they took one more bite of the delicacies inside, it could save them tens of thousands of years of cultivation. No one would want to miss out on that.
Along with this purple-gold tripod, there was also a precious and incomparable scripture called the "Taiyuan Prajna Beyond the Shore Scripture." Even in an Earth Level Great World, it would be considered a supreme cultivation technique.
Moreover, Qin Muling didn't keep it to himself. After obtaining the scripture, he allowed his close senior sisters to comprehend and cultivate it, and stipulated that anyone who broke through to the Quasi-Saint Emperor realm could observe it.
This was, of course, to further enhance the strength of the Immortal Dynasty's Heavenly Court and quickly narrow the gap with those higher-level Great Worlds. Therefore, all the cultivation techniques and scriptures that Qin Muling obtained would be quickly promoted for cultivation, rather than being locked away in the storeroom.
...
Hidden Mist Great World.
In the heavily guarded main gate of the Scarlet Abyss Demon Palace, in the heavily restricted council hall, the palace lord, Yan Luoyun, who had narrowly escaped death, was now convening an emergency meeting with the elders.
On the high platform, the palace lord, dressed in a black robe, sat on the throne, her expression calm and unaffected by the previous setbacks.
Below, thousands of men, women, and children with a menacing aura sat calmly, their lips tightly closed, giving off an air of profound mystery.
This silent confrontation lasted for a while, and finally, Yan Luoyun couldn't hold back any longer and spoke first:
"Elders, do any of you have any opinions or suggestions regarding the next strategies for the sect and the future of the Great World?"
If it weren't for the heavy losses suffered by the original core decision-making team, Yan Luoyun would not have let these old guys who had long retired come out to speak. However, given the current situation, it was necessary to seek their input.
Otherwise, if that unidentified enemy were to break through again, wreak havoc, and then leave, both the Chiyan Demon Palace and the Tianyun Divine Temple would be in a bad position.
There was a moment of silence in the room, and finally someone spoke slowly, "Headmaster, have all the sect's inherited treasures been lost in this turmoil?"
Yan Luoyun's expression changed slightly, and after thinking for a moment, she whispered, "Indeed, that is the case. It was my mistake. However, that unidentified enemy is truly terrifying, and the Divine Ability techniques used were too mysterious and unpredictable, which is why..."
This matter was truly perplexing. Yan Luoyun was considered a knowledgeable and powerful figure, but since she emerged, she had never heard of such mysterious and unpredictable Divine Ability techniques in the chaotic void. The enemy could easily snatch away even their own Spiritual Treasures.
As a result, in a moment of carelessness, more than ten Innate Primordial Supreme Treasures in Yan Luoyun's possession were all taken by Qin Muling. As a result, she was now completely empty-handed, without a decent treasure.
These Innate Primordial Supreme Treasures did not belong to her personally, but were the common property of the Chiyan Demon Palace, treasures that had been passed down for countless ages. Yan Luoyun was only temporarily in charge as the headmaster Supreme. Once she retired in the future, these treasures would be handed over to the next generation of headmaster Supreme.
Now that the inherited treasures had been taken away by the enemy, it was clear that there would be no chance of retrieving them. This loss was too extreme.
"Hmph! Losing so many inherited treasures of the sect, Headmaster, you bear a great responsibility!"
A stern-faced old man coldly questioned, "According to the sect's rules, what kind of punishment should be imposed on those who lose the sect's inherited treasures?"
Yan Luoyun's face darkened. This old guy seemed to be unable to wait even for a moment and was now ready to make trouble. He was clearly eyeing her position as the headmaster.
A clear voice sounded, "Senior Brother Cen, now that we are facing a mysterious external enemy, shouldn't we unite internally to overcome this difficulty? It seems inappropriate to investigate responsibility at this time, right?"
As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately received a chorus of agreement. Yan Luoyun had been able to lead the Chiyan Demon Palace for so many years, naturally, she had no lack of staunch supporters.
Seeing this, the stern-faced old man softened his tone a bit, "I don't mean to be at odds with the Headmaster, but the loss of these inherited treasures has had a terrible impact on the sect. We must find a proper solution."
"That's right, how precious are the sect's inherited treasures? Each one is of great significance. Without them, how can we withstand the pressure from the Tianyun Divine Temple?"
Another old woman paused her cane and said with a compassionate tone.
"Heh, the situation over at the Tianyun Divine Temple is even worse. Not only did they lose their inherited treasures, even their headmaster Supreme fell!"
A young man in a red shirt said disdainfully.
"But that is not an excuse!"
"I think you are deliberately causing trouble, aren't you? Even if you were in charge, the result wouldn't be any different!"
"What do you mean? Are you mocking my cultivation for being inferior to yours?"
"You know it yourself..."
"You bastard! You're asking for death!"
...
For a while, the grand hall became noisy.
Some of the most experienced elders couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh. Resources like Innate Spiritual Treasure and Innate Primordial Supreme Treasure are not easy to come by. You can't just have as much as you want.
The treasures of the Crimson Abyss Demon Palace were painstakingly sought after by the generations of powerful individuals from the chaos and void of countless years in the past. To obtain an Innate Primordial Supreme Treasure, it would require the sacrifice of millions or even tens of millions of high-level cultivators.
So no one can bear this unprecedented blame, and it is impossible to simply turn the page. Only the palace master, Yan Luoyun, can take responsibility for it.
"Enough," Yan Luoyun sighed softly after a long time, his voice cold. "Since some elders are dissatisfied, after this crisis is over, I will hand over the authority of the Supreme Sect and retire. As for now, let's discuss how to deal with the external enemies."
While the disputes in the Crimson Abyss Demon Palace were put aside for now, the Heavenly Destiny Divine Temple was currently experiencing a significant internal conflict.
With the former palace lord's demise, the urgent task was to elect a new spokesperson. The hundreds of vacant positions of influential elders also needed to be filled with suitable candidates.
As a result, the factions of various major forces began to argue. Some individuals who believed they had enough strength wanted to compete for those positions and were unwilling to back down.
After several days and nights of arguments without reaching a conclusion, a hot-tempered figure couldn't help but resort to violence, and people from other factions also refused to show weakness. Thus, a bloodbath occurred.
Later, some of the most experienced old-timers took strong action to suppress the situation. After dealing with the leaders of the troublemakers, they managed to resolve the crisis.
Of course, these contradictions and conflicts were not truly eliminated; they were only temporarily concealed. When the time was right, they would definitely erupt again.
However, at the moment, it seemed that the Heavenly Destiny Divine Temple didn't need to consider that day. They still hadn't dealt with the mysterious external enemies! How could they have the energy to consider long-term matters?
More than ten days later, Qin Muling and her senior sisters once again arrived. The Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore turned into a faint and elusive light, silently passing through the Heavenly Mist Great World's Heavenly Dao formation and infiltrating the world's interior.
"... Dealing with the various dangers and restrictions here does indeed feel more troublesome. If it weren't for my cultivation progress, it would have been quite difficult," Qin Muling carefully passed through the treacherous formations and restrictions in the depths of the earth, silently pondering.
As a Profound Level Low Grade Great World, it was a level higher than the Kong Qing Great World from before, and the complexity and difficulty of the formations and restrictions had correspondingly increased.
If it were an ordinary Three Corpse Unified Harmony expert or even a grandmaster in the field of formations, it would be difficult for them to silently infiltrate on their own.
However, with Qin Muling's current cultivation and methods, these restrictions were only troublesome and not insurmountable difficulties.
After consuming her lifespan to the extreme and depleting nearly ten percent of her luck, Qin Muling finally passed through the last restriction and infiltrated the region where the world's origin ocean was located.
A vast ocean with a diameter of over three hundred million miles floated silently in the void, with boundless purple clouds surging and churning on the surface. The sparkling radiance was extremely magnificent.
The total amount of the world's origin here was not only much greater than the Extreme Void Starry Sky, but its quality was also noticeably higher, more pure and refined.
After silently observing for a moment, Qin Muling revealed the Azure Lotus phantom, enveloping the entire ocean and began absorbing it on a large scale.
At the same time, Qin Yushuang, Qin Yuying, and Qin Yulan also appeared, their crystal-clear eyes filled with excitement.
"Indeed, Junior Brother's abilities are extraordinary. He actually managed to infiltrate the core area of the opponent's origin ocean like this?" Qin Yulan sighed softly. It was the first time she had witnessed the origin ocean of another Great World with her own eyes, and she was inexplicably excited and filled with eager anticipation.
"Find a place for yourselves to absorb to your heart's content. Time is running out, so take in as much as you can," Qin Muling said, and the three women immediately complied without delay, while he himself began absorbing on a large scale.
