Chapter 413: Qin Muling: I want it all!
Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace main altar.
At the edge of the void continent, a piece of land filled with spiritual energy and breathtaking scenery emerges from the depths of the massive Azure Lotus illusion. It quickly expands and grows until it becomes a colossal object with a diameter of billions of miles and a thickness of billions of miles after dozens of breaths.
Under the control of the Grand Palace Master, this land is placed at the edge of the continent. In the dazzling light and thunderous roar, the two seamlessly integrate with each other. The impending earthquake and transcendent-level hurricanes are easily suppressed by her.
Mu Yinghua, on the other hand, joins forces with the core elders to carefully adjust the formation nodes of the mountain protection array, incorporating this newly added land into the protection range of the array.
Junior Brother's luck phenomenon is becoming more and more prominent!
Yu Lingzhou silently observes Qin Muling. As the size of the sect's main altar rapidly increases, he, as the chief contributor, benefits the most. Large amounts of purple luck, like a chaotic divine dragon, continuously descend from the depths of the void and merge into the luck canopy above Qin Muling's head.
This is the favor of the entire Extreme Void Starry Sky's will of the Heavenly Dao. Perhaps since the ancient immortal era, which is distant and unverifiable, only Qin Muling has received such an honor.
At this moment, Qin Muling is also examining himself. Over the past half year, with the transportation of fertile land from the Illusory Mist Secret Realm, both he and Immortal Venerable Qing Yao and the Grand Palace Master have received massive rewards of heavenly merits. Especially Qin Muling, who has received the largest share.
Obviously, the supreme will of the Heavenly Dao understands Qin Muling's value, so the favor towards him is particularly strong. Thanks to this, Qin Muling has successfully broken through the shackles of a Second Grade Great Principal Golden Immortal with the help of massive heavenly merits.
"...It's almost done, right?"
Immortal Venerable Qing Yao looks at the expanded void continent beneath her feet, which has increased in size by more than ten times, and says with satisfaction, "It should be enough for now. Let Mu Ling accompany them in cultivation for a while, and then we will go to the depths of the chaotic void to search for opportunities!"
The Grand Palace Master nods and says, "No problem, let's do that."
The void continent, with a radius of over ten trillion miles, is divided into half for the disciples of Divine Phoenix Palace, 40% for Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace, and the remaining 10% is shared by Divine Maiden Sect, Dao Court's Xuan Nu lineage, Azure Hill Hall, Flower Dew Palace, Ji Family, and the Buddhist lineage.
Of course, even so, the absolute share that these forces can obtain is equivalent to the total territory of their own sects in the past, and the benefits far exceed previous expectations.
With such a large territory, even with the increasing number of Female Cultivators Union Alliance's newly promoted Quasi-Saint Emperors and Great Principal Golden Immortals under Qin Muling's influence, it will be enough for distribution in the next twenty to thirty years.
Qin Muling thinks for a moment and quietly communicates with the Grand Palace Master and Immortal Venerable Qing Yao through divine sense, saying, "The previous batch of targets are all dead. Next... should we select thirty targets from within the Absolute Beginning Dao Palace?"
When he broke through to the Great Principal Golden Immortal realm, his two innate divine abilities, "Luck Dissipation" and "Luck Plunder," simultaneously improved. Not only can he deal with thirty targets at the same time, but the effects have also been significantly enhanced.
Therefore, after this period of continuous consumption, the luck fortune of the Supreme, the head of the Absolute Beginning Dao Palace, or rather, the former head, Supreme Qi Wushang, has been exhausted. His Dao Foundation has collapsed, and he had to disperse his cultivation and reincarnate, leaving only a trace of remnant soul.
However, this big shot's popularity in the past was not very good. There are probably many important figures within the Absolute Beginning Dao Palace who do not want him to return successfully. So it's already good enough for him to be able to reincarnate in the mortal world as an ordinary person. As for opening up his spiritual wisdom and embarking on the path of cultivation again, the hope is really slim.
Except for Qi Wushang, the other twenty-nine targets are the same. They were all powerful figures within the Absolute Beginning Dao Palace, such as core elders, high-ranking officials, and saint children. Their cultivation levels were all at the Quasi-Saint Emperor level, surpassing the Virtuous Thought Incarnation. Now they have all died under mysterious circumstances, causing a great disturbance within this Transcendent Level power.
The sudden fall of so many senior Quasi-Saint Emperors is extremely rare in the past, unless it is a full-scale war between Transcendent Level powers, which could lead to such a result.
Now, the high-level members of the Absolute Beginning Dao Palace have a foreboding sense of impending disaster. With such great losses and not even knowing the identity of the mysterious enemy, will they not encounter even more terrible losses in the future?
It is said that the newly appointed Supreme leader of the Absolute Beginning Dao Palace is forming alliances everywhere and preparing for the worst, praying that the same misfortune will not befall them. Of course, how effective these actions will be, perhaps only the heavens know.
The Grand Palace Master's expression brightened slightly. "Is that so? It seems that the effect of this Divine Ability is really good! Well, among the next batch of targets, I will personally designate fifteen, and the rest will be left to Qing Yao to decide!"
At this rate, perhaps before the final showdown, the potential enemies of the Female Cultivators Union Alliance will suffer heavy losses and be unable to continue.
Qin Muling nodded. "Okay, I have no objections."
In the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore.
Behind the white jade table, Xue Bingxuan, wearing a bright yellow embroidered phoenix palace dress, with a high bun and a dignified and beautiful demeanor, was handling sect affairs. Various jade slips and documents were piled up in front of her like mountains.
To be precise, this was actually Qin Muling's job. As the Saint Child established by the entire Female Cultivators Union Alliance, he wielded considerable power and resources, much stronger than the Supreme leaders of ordinary Supreme-level Daoist forces.
However, Qin Muling was not very willing to handle these matters, so these affairs that should have been handled by him were naturally shared among the senior sisters. Of course, they had no complaints. They had gained so many benefits from their junior brother since childhood, so it was only right for them to contribute something to him.
On the lower sides, Su Yuanzhen, Fairy Qing Chan, Princess Long Yi, Miao Xin Buddha, Luo Qinghan, Mu Yinshuang, the twin sisters, and Ji Qingluan were all present, smiling and chatting over tea.
Xue Bingxuan picked up a jade token and looked at it. With a slight smile on her beautiful vermilion lips, she said to Princess Long Yi, "You have brought over more than eighty percent of the disciples from the Upper Realm Dao Court in the previous few deployments. Does that side no longer need manpower to stay behind?"
Princess Long Yi, dressed in a deep purple dress, with a mysterious and enchanting temperament, nodded. "Indeed, we don't plan to keep them. There are still some people from those two sects in the Upper Realm. After discussing with Mother and Emperor Haoyue, we decided that since our Xuan Nu sect no longer wants to get involved with them, it's better to completely cut off the relationship."
The territory controlled by the Upper Realm Dao Court is not too large, and it is divided equally among the three major factions. Coupled with the past grievances between the Xuan Nu sect and those two factions, Emperor Haoyue weighed the pros and cons and decided to pack up all the assets and bring all the disciples who were willing to follow him to temporarily reside in the territory of the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace in the Upper Realm. After being screened for loyalty, they would be brought to the Extreme Void Starry Sky in batches.
The main reason is that the territory allocated to the Dao Court here is large enough to accommodate the disciples returning from the Upper Realm without any pressure. As long as they serve Qin Muling well, they may even receive more territory and resources in the future.
Xue Bingxuan nodded and said no more. The Xuan Nu sect's actions in the Dao Court were like removing a small but not insignificant hidden danger, preventing future enemies from using the male disciples of those two sects to infiltrate and cause trouble within the Female Cultivators Union Alliance.
Fairy Qing Chan, with a plump and enchanting figure, smiled and said, "Our Divine Maiden Sect also has some assets in the Upper Realm. It would be a pity to give them up completely. Therefore, we have left about half of our disciples to guard them. After the Unified Harmony of the two realms in the future, they will also be under the jurisdiction of the Female Cultivators Union Alliance."
"Well, this arrangement is only right and proper," Xue Bingxuan said. Divine Maiden Sect has never accepted male disciples in the past, so there is little concern about internal problems. The same goes for Flower Dew Palace and Azure Hill Hall. Dealing with this aspect is quite simple.
Ji Qingluan, with a snowy and beautiful dress, hesitated for a moment and said, "As for the matters in the Upper Realm, they are currently handled by my elder brother, and I am not aware of the details. But according to the agreement made at the beginning of the alliance, no male members of the Ji family will enter the main altar of the sect. This point will never change."
Xue Bingxuan smiled tolerantly and said, "It doesn't matter. As long as we can ensure this fundamental principle, everything else is not important."
"Yes, so this time there will be two million female members of the family coming. Half of them will be returning from the Upper Realm, and they will reside in the main altar of the sect in the future. If Junior Brother is willing, we can also let the outstanding ones among them join the ranks of the guardians."
Ji Qingluan said softly. After these female members of the family come, they will naturally be under her management, and her authority will increase accordingly.
After defeating the Evil Thought Incarnation, Ji Qingluan has completely sided with the Female Cultivators Union Alliance and no longer cares about the interests of the male members of the family. As long as she can follow Qin Muling to achieve enlightenment, the interests of the Ji family will be guaranteed, and those men can do whatever they want.
The family head, Ji Yuanjie, is also helpless about this. Last time, when his wife, Yu Shuangning, came to persuade Ji Qingluan, it was unsuccessful, and he understood that he could no longer control his own sister.
As for using force, there is no need to think about it. Whether it is Ji Qingluan's own cultivation or the strength of the female members of the Ji family stationed at the main altar of Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace, they have surpassed the male members of the family headquarters.
Strength determines the right to speak. This is the iron law of the cultivation world, and the Ji family is no exception.
Therefore, whether Ji Yuanjie and the other elders are happy or not, they can only hold their noses and endure it, and continue to give Ji Qingluan various benefits, carefully fawning over her.
Otherwise, if Ji Qingluan becomes unhappy and whispers in Qin Muling's ear, the consequences would be unbearable for the Ji family.
Miao Xin, with a beautiful and dignified appearance, pondered and said, "There have been some problems with the orthodox tradition in the Upper Realm recently, which has led to disputes among the ancestors. But for the time being, it has not affected our Female Cultivators Union Alliance..."
"What kind of problems?" Xue Bingxuan's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked with a surprised expression.
"It's the people from the Buddha Domain Pure Land. They want to arrange some tasks and use the Great Brahman Sound Monastery's inter-realm teleportation array to bring a group of people to the Extreme Void Starry Sky. However, they were rejected by the remaining ancestors of the Great Brahman Sound Monastery."
Miao Xin frowned and said, such actions naturally caused dissatisfaction from the Buddha Domain Pure Land, and what will happen next is unpredictable.
Qi Yalan, with dark and elegant eyebrows, asked, "The Buddhist sect in the Upper Realm doesn't have much to do with the Buddha Domain Pure Land, right? Do we have to listen to them?"
"In name, there is no direct subordinate relationship, but Buddha Domain Pure Land is ultimately the ultimate source of all Buddhist cultivation in the upper realm. It is high above and its influence is not insignificant, so..." Hui Chan, the Buddha Master, explained softly. Even within the Buddhist lineage, there are many Buddhists who aspire to cultivate in the Pure Land. The subtle relationship between the two sides cannot be explained in just a few words.
Now, the Great Brahman Sound Monastery, Infinite Life Palace, Immovable Vajra Temple, Mirror Moon Zen Forest, and Dragon Elephant Celestial Palace on the Extreme Void Starry Sky side have all chosen to align with the Female Cultivators Union Alliance. The situation of the Buddhist lineage in the upper realm is somewhat awkward.
Those senior ancestors with deep qualifications are not all willing to get close to the Female Cultivators Union Alliance, especially male Buddhist cultivators. In their view, since everyone is inheriting the Buddhist tradition, it is reasonable to choose to align with the Buddha Domain Pure Land. Why bother getting close to outsiders?
If this matter is not handled well, it may cause significant trouble. The internal division of the Buddhist lineage is just a minor issue. If the top experts of Buddha Domain Pure Land were to learn about Qin Muling's existence in advance, the consequences would be extremely serious.
Xue Bingxuan frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "In that case, I will report this matter to the head teacher and ask her and the other two to make a decision."
Buddha Master Miao Xin nodded in agreement and said, "In about ten days, the next batch of female disciples from the Buddhist lineage will arrive at the sect's main altar. The total number will exceed ten million, and about half of them will be returning from the upper realm. In the future, they will also reside in the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace and will not leave without permission."
This approach is, of course, to prevent the news about Qin Muling from leaking out. It is necessary to wait until he becomes a Quasi-Saint Emperor before this restriction can be relaxed.
Xue Bingxuan nodded in agreement, and after some discussion, the women bid farewell and left.
At this time, Qin Muling had already returned to the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore with the accompaniment of the women from Yu Lingzhou. As soon as he stepped into his Cave Mansion, he was warmly welcomed by the sisters Liuying Zixi. Emperor Feng Ge, Nan Gong Zi Qin, and Emperor Tong Ying also came out to greet him.
"You finally came back, little junior brother?"
Hua Jingyi's delicate body almost clung to him. Her beautiful eyes were shy and timid as she pouted, "We've been waiting for you for a long time! Just think about it, how long has it been since you practiced with us?"
Qin Muling touched her round and perky breasts and smiled, "I was busy with important matters in the sect. It's only today that things have settled down, so I can accompany you all and have fun."
For the past half year, he had subdued the Heavenly Human Race, arranged for a group of disciples to establish branch sects in the Illusory Mist Secret Realm, and transported land masses back to the Extreme Void Starry Sky. He hadn't had the chance to spend time with his senior sisters, and Qin Muling himself was feeling a bit frustrated.
Yu Lingzhou smiled and said, "Little junior brother, you've indeed been working hard during this time. How about enjoying a big meal first before talking about cultivation?"
"Okay."
Qin Muling had no reason to refuse. Nangong Ziqin asked, "In that case, which senior sisters do you plan to cultivate with this time, little junior brother? I'll go and make preparations for them in advance!"
Qin Muling shook his head, "There's no need to choose. Let them all come together. I want all of them!"
