Chapter 386 Qin Muling: Can You Catch Them All In One Fell Swoop?
Chapter 386: Qin Muling: Can we wipe them all out?
Above the vast sky, deep within the majestic and imposing Separation God Palace.
"... They're here again? They're here again! Damn it!" Emperor Yuan Xi stared at the scene presented in the Great Thousand Heaven Surveying Mirror, his face turning pale, his fierce eyes almost spewing fire as he cursed angrily.
In the boundless golden desert, a terrifying abyss with a diameter of nearly a billion miles and an unknown depth was clearly visible.
At the edge of the abyss, several women surrounded a young man. They reduced the excavated land and stored it in a huge Azure Lotus illusion, then turned into flowing light and left.
And on the vast and boundless land, there were many such terrifying abysses. The appearance of each abyss meant that a land rich in resources and abundant in spiritual veins had been completely dug out and taken back to the Extreme Void Starry Sky.
Supreme spiritual veins, veins and deposits of various rare spiritual minerals, Supreme Grade spiritual crystal mountain ranges, areas where certain rare spiritual beasts and birds thrived, mountains where various Supreme-level Heavenly Medicines grew... as long as it was a territory deemed valuable by the Grand Palace Master and Immortal Venerable Qing Yao, it was all cut off and taken away!
At this moment, even Emperor Yuan Xi, whose cultivation was not particularly outstanding, and the other dozen or so surviving Heavenly Human Race Quasi-Saint Emperors, began to feel that the luck of the Illusory Mist Secret Realm was slowly declining.
Although the decline in luck was slow and small, even the most powerful source of luck could not withstand such continuous and endless consumption and plunder.
If effective measures were not taken to restrain the actions of these external powerhouses, the Illusory Mist Secret Realm would eventually be completely ruined by them, and no useful resources would be left!
At that time, not only would the Illusory Mist Secret Realm fall into a worse state than the current Extreme Void Starry Sky, but the entire lineage of the Heavenly Human Race would also be at risk of being severed. No one could afford such consequences.
"Forget it, if we dare to go out and intercept now, it will definitely be a dead end!" Emperor Bai Yuan, with a cold temperament, said expressionlessly, "If we all die, then the Heavenly Human Race truly has no future. So now we can only choose to endure!"
Emperor Yuan Xi angrily said, "Endure? How long do we have to endure?"
"Of course, we have to wait until the ancestors return from the depths of the chaotic void. At that time, we will have enough strength to recover the losses and give them an unforgettable lesson!" Emperor Bai Yuan calmly said. Several years ago, the high-level members of the Heavenly Human Race had made great efforts and spared no expense to repeatedly try to contact the ancestors who were traveling in the depths of the chaotic void. Although they had agreed to return, due to the extremely distant distance, even if everything went smoothly, it would probably take more than a dozen years for them to come back. If there were any delays or accidents, it would be even more uncertain.
Moreover, even if everything went smoothly, a lot could happen in a dozen years. Who could say how much of the luck source of the Illusory Mist Secret Realm would be left by then?
However, the current high-level members of the Heavenly Human Race had no better choice and could only continue to wait anxiously.
Ling Xi and Zi Huang stood by Emperor Bai Yuan's throne, their expressions calm and silent.
Regarding the life and death of the Heavenly Human Race, with their cultivation equivalent to Taiyi Golden Immortals, they currently had no qualifications to express their opinions. Any thoughts they had could only be hidden in their hearts.
Emperor Yuan Xi, in his helpless rage, finally reluctantly made a concession, "Then let them live a little longer. Let's temporarily ignore them!"
The remaining Quasi-Saint Emperors around had no objections, and the matter was settled like this.
As for what the Heavenly Human Clan should do if the returning ancestors' cultivation is limited and they cannot deal with the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace in the Extreme Void Starry Sky, they dare not even imagine.
Extreme Void Starry Sky, Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace main hall.
When Mu Yinghua and the core elders guarding the edge of the Void Giant Land saw the Grand Palace Master, Qin Muling, and Immortal Venerable Qing Yao appear again, they breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly greeted them.
Although they understood that with these two top experts escorting them, Qin Muling couldn't possibly have any problems, Mu Yinghua couldn't help but worry because she cared too much about him.
Qin Muling waved his hand, and a huge Azure Lotus phantom appeared, releasing a rich and abundant land with a radius of nearly a billion li, filled with spiritual energy and vibrant clouds.
The Grand Palace Master skillfully operated his Divine Ability, slowly placing this land in the pre-planned area. Amidst the low thunderous roar, it gradually merged with the existing Void Giant Land, becoming one without distinction.
Qin Muling silently observed as the Grand Palace Master's cultivation realm was obviously higher than that of Immortal Venerable Qing Yao. As a result, the process of merging the land was smooth, and all the underground spiritual veins and water networks adjusted themselves to the optimal positions and smoothly integrated with the giant land.
Then, Qin Muling sensed a slight increase in the overall luck of the sect.
Of course, the concept of "slight" was relative. After all, the original luck of the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace was already terrifying. Even a slight increase would be significant for other forces in the outside world.
The Flowing Shadow Sisters next to her secretly estimated that the land that had just been integrated was a large area of superior spiritual veins and countless Supreme Grade spiritual caves and springs. Even in the Upper Realm, it could serve as the foundation of a first-class force.
If this land was distributed reasonably, even according to the standards of the Divine Phoenix Palace, it could accommodate hundreds of thousands of high-level female immortals, satisfying their daily lives and cultivation needs.
In the past two months, the number of such rich lands that had been transported back had reached tens of thousands, further expanding the size of the sect's main hall to a terrifying scale of over six trillion li in radius.
The magnificent and vast sky was filled with auspicious lights, surrounded by splendid radiance. Countless purple energy and golden light permeated the air, and faint celestial music echoed in the depths of the soul. In Qin Muling's sea of consciousness, on the Innate Primordial Good Fortune Azure Lotus, the thick golden light and purple energy became even more dazzling.
However, the Grand Palace Master was still not satisfied. Her goal was to make the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace's main hall exceed one hundred trillion li in size, which would be able to accommodate about one-tenth of the female disciples of the Divine Phoenix Palace.
Of course, this was a long-term goal that couldn't be achieved overnight. After all, Qin Muling still had to cultivate in seclusion with her senior sisters, improve her cultivation, take care of the medicinal garden, and handle various matters. It was impossible for her to focus solely on this.
Therefore, after discussion, the Grand Palace Master decided to temporarily stop expanding the Void Giant Land when it reached a radius of ten trillion li, and continue the matter after Qin Muling advanced to the realm of Great Principal Golden Immortal.
For this reason, Immortal Venerable Qing Yao had already instructed Mu Yinghua to prepare resources and design a brand new mountain protection formation for the sect, which was much more advanced than the one in the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace in the Upper Realm.
"...Regarding the new mountain protection formation, why not use the one from the Divine Phoenix Palace in the Upper Realm?" The Grand Palace Master smiled and said, "I will have them send over the original design as soon as possible, and I have also prepared some special formation materials. However... as for the 1024 Middle Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, 108 High Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, thirty-six Peerless Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures used as formation nodes and to suppress the qi, as well as the three Innate Primordial Supreme Treasures used as the core hub, Divine Phoenix Palace cannot provide them. Sister, you will have to find a way to gather them yourself!"
"Is it really that exaggerated?" Qin Muling frowned upon hearing this. She had no shortage of Middle Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, and it might be a bit difficult to gather High Grade and Peerless Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, but as long as she found a way, it could still be done. The only problem was gathering the three Innate Primordial Supreme Treasures.
The Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore was one, but other than that, Qin Muling didn't have a second Innate Primordial Supreme Treasure. The two that Immortal Venerable Qing Yao had couldn't be used either.
To meet this condition, Qin Muling and Immortal Venerable Qing Yao would have to go to the depths of the chaotic void again.
"But there's no need to rush," the Grand Palace Master said.
Immortal Venerable Qing Yao saw his dilemma and said softly, "With the current conditions, we can first create a relatively simplified mountain protection formation to solve the urgent matter. We can think of a solution later when we have the time."
The foundation of the Divine Phoenix Palace's important territory is a formation that has accumulated the heritage of hundreds of thousands of Yuan Hui from various superpowers. How could the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace expect to catch up and compete directly with them in one step?
It's simply unrealistic!
However, even if they were to create the original version of the mountain protection formation, even if the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace's main altar faced numerous top experts' full-scale attacks, they could still hold on to hundreds or even thousands of Yuan Hui.
The standard for these top experts naturally refers to the leaders of superpowers such as the Grand Palace Master, the Grand Master of the Tai Chu Dao Palace, the Lord of the Demon Emperor's Kingdom, and the Lord of the Pure Land of Buddhism.
In fact, even the current simplified version of the formation has surpassed most of the top-tier forces in the Upper Realm. Without Qin Muling's help, the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace wouldn't even be able to afford one-tenth of the cost of this simplified version of the formation with their existing resources.
"Alright, let's settle it like this!"
Qin Muling nodded in agreement.
The Grand Palace Master's eyes flickered as she smiled and said, "Next time you go to the Chaotic Void to seek opportunities, let me come with you! I want to see how powerful that Innate Chaotic Divine Beast really is."
Immortal Venerable Qing Yao had already informed her of the experience from their previous trip to the Chaotic Void, so the Grand Palace Master was also looking forward to how many benefits they would gain if she and Qin Muling entered the Chaotic Void together.
Piles of Peerless Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, Innate Spirit Objects, and even Innate Primordial Supreme Treasures? It's not impossible!
"Oh, there's one more important thing!"
Qin Muling suddenly had a thought and said to the Grand Palace Master, "Do you have any personal belongings of the leaders of those superpowers in the Upper Realm? Or something like the Shadow Projection Stone?"
The Grand Palace Master's expression changed slightly. "What do you want to do? No matter how brilliant the curse techniques of witchcraft and gu are, they are useless against beings of this level. If you're not careful, you might end up being calculated by them. Don't think too much about it!"
She thought Qin Muling wanted to deal with those Apex Level powerhouses in the Upper Realm, but that was obviously wishful thinking. As the highest authority figure of a superpower, she had countless unimaginable means and hidden cards. How could she be easily plotted against by external enemies?
Without mentioning others, she herself possessed more than ten unknown killer moves. One of them even came from the legendary Heavenly Realm.
It was a mysterious soul puppet made of an unknown material. As long as the Grand Palace Master's divine soul encountered a life-threatening threat, it would automatically activate to protect her. Even terrifying beings with higher cultivation than her would inevitably suffer fatal injuries.
The leaders of other superpowers also had various life-saving cards on them. So, unless someone had gone crazy, usually no one would dare to make a move against these top experts, because it was simply meaningless.
Qin Muling smiled and said, "Ordinary methods are indeed useless, but what if it's a way to deal with that Innate Chaotic Divine Beast?"
He was thinking that if he could use this invisible method of killing to wipe out those leaders of superpowers who were not on good terms with the Divine Phoenix Palace, the pressure on the Female Cultivators Union Alliance would undoubtedly be greatly reduced.
"..."
The Grand Palace Master's expression froze, and her gaze became serious as she said, "This matter is of great importance. With your identity, you must not take risks lightly. If you really want to try, then use that method on me first and see what happens."
Instinctively, she didn't want Qin Muling to take risks. If something went wrong, both the Divine Phoenix Palace and herself would not be able to bear such losses.
"Well, then this disciple will offend you!"
Qin Muling spoke, staring at the tall and graceful figure of the Grand Palace Master, "Luck Plunder" and "Luck Dissipation," two Divine Abilities, quietly activated.
"..."
At first, the Grand Palace Master didn't think much of it, but then her expression slowly changed.
It was because she was shocked to find that the special Law Weapons and Divine Abilities within her body had no reaction at all. Even the mysterious soul puppet from the heavenly realm only moved slightly, without any signs of protecting its master.
But her own divine soul, in that instant, truly felt a great and imminent danger.
"How is it?" Qin Muling asked with a smile.
The Grand Palace Master frowned and pondered for a while. She silently used secret techniques to examine the anomalies in her luck. She saw that within a radius of thousands of acres, a seven-layered purple cloud gathered into a canopy shape. It was lush and brilliant, with nine golden lotuses the size of rice bowls floating and sinking within the clouds. On top of them, various anomalies such as the rising and setting of the sun and moon, the evolution of galaxies, and the opening of the primordial chaos appeared one after another.
At first glance, there were no signs of anything amiss, but the dangerous aura in the depths of the Grand Palace Master's heart continued to linger, like an unparalleled deadly blade hanging over her head.
"Is it that powerful? Why don't you try it on me, Junior Martial Brother?" Immortal Venerable Qing Yao, who was beside her, said with a smile.
Qin Muling nodded and followed suit. Soon, she also had the same feeling as the Grand Palace Master, but she couldn't find any anomalies.
"This method takes a while to take effect. For beings of your level, it may take several years to see results. But once affected, there is basically no way to resolve it!" Qin Muling explained. Even the Divine Ability that the Innate Primordial Chaos Demons and Gods couldn't do anything about, he didn't think the powerful figures in the higher realm would have a way to solve it. Even if they used all their hidden methods, the best they could do was alleviate the situation. Complete restraint was impossible.
"With this method, how many targets can you deal with at the same time?" the Grand Palace Master asked after a moment of silence.
"For now, it's fifteen, but since the Innate Primordial Chaos Demons and Gods haven't died yet, it's fourteen," Qin Muling replied.
The Grand Palace Master let out a sigh of relief and said helplessly, "That's very good, but all I have now is half of the bone arrow from the Tai Chu Dao Palace's Sect Master. One of my elders was injured by this thing back then, so you can use it. As for the leaders of the other super forces, I have no way to deal with them."
Because she had never thought of this before, she couldn't possibly keep the images or personal belongings of those top experts, especially since they were all cunning and extremely shrewd individuals who would never make such a low-level mistake in this regard.
"I think Sister can just come up with a random reason and visit those guys one by one, secretly record their aura, and that would solve the problem," Immortal Venerable Qing Yao suggested.
The Grand Palace Master shook her head and said, "It sounds simple, but it's not easy to actually do. Let's consider it in the long run!"
