Chapter 398: Immortal Venerable Qing Yao: Junior Brother is the most important treasure!
Across from them, the twelve powerful beings from the Witch World looked at Qi Wushang with complex expressions. After a while, the dignified old man sitting in the center, the current Witch Emperor, gently paused his scepter and said in a hoarse voice, "You can try, but the chances of success are only about thirty percent. And... even if you succeed, you will lose half of your lifespan. As for whether you can recover in the future, it will depend on your own luck!"
"Such a high price?" Qi Wushang's face changed slightly. With his current cultivation level, as long as he didn't encounter a calamity and die, it was possible for him to live through several lifetimes. But to solve this unimaginable trouble, he would have to pay half of his lifespan?
As for whether there were any other hidden dangers, only heaven knew!
"The decision is in your hands," the Witch Emperor smiled. "To be honest, we have never seen such a terrifying curse before. It is profound and unpredictable, directly targeting the fundamental laws of the Great Dao, yet almost impossible to trace. The mysterious enemy you have provoked is truly extraordinary!"
Even with the profound heritage of the Immemorial Witch World, it took a lot of effort to slightly understand the hidden dangers on Qi Wushang. As for completely removing and eradicating them, the cost was hard to say.
Of course, the powerful beings of the Immemorial Witch World were quite interested in this matter. If they could really find a way to solve this problem and decipher the methods of the mysterious enemy, it would mean that the heritage of the Witch World would gain another point.
In the future, any other Transcendent Level forces that wanted to target the Witch World would have to consider the destructive power of this trump card.
Qi Wushang didn't hesitate for long before making up his mind. "Since that's the case, I will trouble Your Majesty! As long as this matter is satisfactorily resolved, I will pay the agreed-upon reward in full!"
He had to admit that the price was indeed exaggerated. But Qi Wushang couldn't afford to consider so much anymore. After finally seeing a glimmer of hope, he naturally had to firmly grasp it.
As for the losses of the Absolute Beginning Dao Palace, he no longer considered them. If he couldn't solve the hidden dangers himself, this Transcendent Level force would not last long and would become history.
...
In the depths of the chaotic void.
The Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore had already expanded to a size of millions of miles, while the virtual image of the Innate Primordial Good Fortune Azure Lotus enveloped an area of hundreds of millions of miles. Wherever it passed, the chaotic energy that had raged for countless ages calmed down.
The low and deep thunderous roar echoed in the spiritual realm, as the various Chaotic Ferocious Beasts disintegrated and turned into flesh and blood. Even their souls and spirits were devoured by the unprecedented Innate Chaotic Divine Demon.
Immediately after, it, who was originally heavily injured and weak, seemed to have taken a powerful tonic, and its ferocity returned.
"...If it's so easy for you to turn the tables, wouldn't it make us look incompetent?" The Grand Palace Master laughed and said. The Dark Silver Bell, Purple Gold Gourd, and the Primordial Origin Sword Box flew out at the same time. Along with the suppression and imprisonment power of the Innate Primordial Good Fortune Azure Lotus' domain, they left countless shocking wounds on its centipede-like body in an instant.
In the desperate curse, numerous tangible and intangible mysterious attacks rained down like a storm, but they were weakened and erased layer by layer by the Azure Lotus' virtual image, finally colliding into the domain of the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore and quietly dissipated.
With the terrifying defense of this Innate Primordial Supreme Treasure, Qin Muling had never seen any living being or treasure that could pose a substantial threat to it.
In the distant chaotic void, more Chaotic Ferocious Beasts swarmed like rolling dark clouds, only to explode and be devoured completely by the Innate Chaotic Divine Demon.
With the natural suppression of the laws of the position, these chaotic creatures did not dare to resist and could only be consumed as nourishment wave after wave, endlessly.
However, the Grand Palace Master and Immortal Venerable Qing Yao were not worried at all. They patiently engaged in a battle of attrition with it, wanting to see how long it could hold on.
In its heavily injured state, its luck would dissipate at an accelerated rate. Even if it desperately persisted, it was only a matter of time before its divine soul perished and it completely fell.
Time passed quietly, with hundreds of hours slipping away.
At some point, the number of Chaotic Ferocious Beasts surging from the distance began to decrease, and their average strength also noticeably declined.
Obviously, no matter how powerful the Innate Chaotic Divine Demon was, its lackeys and territory were not endless. In such an unprecedented war of attrition, it would eventually exhaust its reserves.
As a direct consequence, the recovery speed of this Innate Chaotic Divine Demon became slower and slower. The terrifying wounds on its massive body multiplied, and its eerie purple-black blood gushed out like a fountain.
"It's almost done, give it all you've got!" Immortal Venerable Qing Yao's expression brightened slightly. Qin Muling nodded and said, "Don't let your guard down, who knows if it still has any desperate means!"
The Grand Palace Master had no objections to this. They, along with their avatars, held their ground inside the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore, never taking the initiative to attack. They calmly left more wounds on the opponent with the Innate Primordial Supreme Treasure, steadily consuming it.
"Perhaps... we can negotiate!" The Innate Chaotic Divine Demon screamed miserably and sent a message of surrender, "As long as you spare me, I can give you half of my collection. They are all precious treasures that have been nurtured in the chaotic void for countless ages. You won't lose out, how about it?"
"Dream on!" Immortal Venerable Qing Yao sneered, "Once you're finished, everything you have will become our spoils of war. Why talk about giving us half?"
"But you will never be able to find the lair of this deity," the Innate Chaotic Divine Demon said sinisterly, "If you don't agree, this deity can destroy them all or give them to other companions. You are destined to get nothing, and they will seek revenge for this deity."
This statement seemed to have some effect, but the two women did not stop their fierce attacks. After a few moments, they responded indifferently, "Then so be it. It's absolutely impossible for us to be fooled!"
...
The Innate Chaotic Divine Demon fell silent for a few moments, then suddenly roared loudly. Its massive body exploded, not only repelling the attacks of several Innate Primordial Supreme Treasures, but even dispersing the illusionary domain of the Good Fortune Azure Lotus for a moment.
"You... just wait for this deity!" The sound of a resentful curse echoed in the depths of their souls, quickly fading away, and after a breath, it was nowhere to be found.
"Let it escape again..."
Qin Muling sighed slightly with a hint of regret. This big guy was indeed ruthless and decisive, abandoning 95% of his cultivation and soul origin in order to escape the imprisonment of the Innate Primordial Good Fortune Azure Lotus, disappearing into the depths of the chaotic void without a trace.
Of course, if they really wanted to chase after it, they could still give it a try. After all, the talents of Luck Plunder and Luck Dissipation from the Divine Ability were still effective.
"To chase or not to chase?"
The Grand Palace Master asked, and Immortal Venerable Qing Yao pondered for a moment before shaking her head. "There's no need. After all, we have already obtained the most important treasure from it. If we push it too hard, it might call for more companions and make things difficult for us."
The Purple Gold Gourd came from the core territory of this big guy, just like the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore. They were the most valuable collections in its possession. As for other benefits and whether they could obtain them, it wasn't that important.
"Alright, let's leave it at that!"
Qin Muling said, "Let's rest for a while and then continue to search for opportunities."
Immortal Venerable Qing Yao agreed and controlled the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore to teleport, staying in the chaotic void billions of miles away.
Qin Muling cleaned up and counted the spoils, refining the life crystals rich in life essence, as well as some low-grade Innate spiritual treasures and chaotic divine materials.
As the abundant essence poured into his body, Qin Muling's cultivation soared further, reaching the peak of the Fifth Grade Taiyi Golden Immortal, already halfway on the path to the Ninth Grade Taiyi Golden Immortal.
Adding up all the gains, Qin Muling had a total of fourteen Peerless Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures in his hands, over a hundred High Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, and even more treasures of Middle Grade and below.
And this was only a part of what belonged to Qin Muling, without counting what the Grand Palace Master and Immortal Venerable Qing Yao had in their hands.
"The gains from following you on this trip are equivalent to the countless journeys we would have made in the chaotic void! It's not an exaggeration to say that you are our treasure trove."
The Grand Palace Master sighed slightly. In the long years past, the upper echelons of the major Transcendent Level forces in the Upper Realm, as well as those famous and powerful Independent Cultivators, loved nothing more than exploring and searching for opportunities in the chaotic void.
However, the chaotic void was dangerous and unpredictable. The deeper one went, the more dangerous it became. Even if they traveled in groups and had powerful beings above the Three Corpses Incarnation leading the way, they couldn't guarantee absolute safety.
In the many Yuanhui that had passed, most of the Quasi-Saint Emperors who fell, disappeared, or were seriously injured were closely related to the chaotic void.
However, among the Quasi-Saint Emperors who made such great sacrifices, only a very small number were able to return safely or even gain something.
In fact, for them, being able to come back alive from the chaotic void was already the greatest luck. How could they dare to expect too much gain?
"Then, may I ask, how many Innate Primordial Supreme Treasures are there suppressing the qi of Transcendent Level forces like the Divine Phoenix Palace?"
Qin Muling thought for a moment before cautiously asking. This was the most important core secret of the Transcendent Level forces, and it was usually not disclosed to the outside world.
The Grand Palace Master smiled and rubbed his face. "There's nothing to hide from you. In addition to the Nine Melody Divine Phoenix Bell that is known publicly, there are two more in secret, held by my master and my ancestor. But now, I also have my own Innate Primordial Supreme Treasure!"
"As for other Transcendent Level forces... the numbers are about the same, except for the Buddha Domain Pure Land, which has an additional Bodhi Eight Treasures Merit Pool in public and several unknown treasures in secret. But when it comes to the most number of Innate Primordial Supreme Treasures, it has to be the Genesis Star Palace."
"The Genesis Star Palace?"
Qin Muling furrowed his brows slightly.
"Yes, it is Genesis Star Palace," the Grand Palace Master affirmed confidently. "It's not hard to understand. After all, her cultivation is the highest and closest to the realm of Supreme Primordial Saint. If it weren't for some issues with her own condition, forcing her to sleep for long periods of time, the current power structure in the upper realm wouldn't be like this!"
It is widely believed that the owner of Genesis Star Palace has touched upon some key mysteries in her path to achieving the status of Supreme Saint. That's why she has secluded herself for so many years and is not concerned about other matters, even the war with the Monster Emperor Kingdom, which hasn't diverted her attention too much.
Immortal Venerable Qing Yao, with her enchanting jade arms wrapped around Qin Muling's waist, smiled and said, "Of course, this is just previous intelligence. Now that we have someone like you, our Female Cultivators Union Alliance is naturally the most powerful Transcendent Level force. It is entirely possible for us to surpass Genesis Star Palace given enough time."
Qin Muling had no objections to this. Currently, Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace has three Innate Primordial Supreme Treasures, Divine Phoenix Palace has four, and she herself possesses one.
Not to mention, as the transformed body of the Innate Primordial Good Fortune Azure Lotus, Qin Muling's status surpasses all the Innate Primordial Supreme Treasures.
After spending some intimate time with them, Qin Muling and the others were about to continue their journey when a sudden change caught Qin Muling's attention.
Outside the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore, the majestic and chaotic tide, like a primordial dragon, continued to rage boundlessly. It was immeasurable, without beginning or end.
Through the burning and exploding chaotic currents, countless dangerous and unpredictable void traps, and the territories of many chaotic creatures, a seemingly unremarkable cloud boat, over a thousand zhang in length, was rushing hurriedly, instantly disappearing billions of li away.
"...The speed of this treasure seems decent, but it is still far behind the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore," the Grand Palace Master said with a hint of surprise. "The aura of this thing is somewhat familiar. Could it be... a powerful being from the Extreme Void Starry Sky?"
Qin Muling glanced at it and her expression changed abruptly. "It's not from the Extreme Void Starry Sky, but from the Illusory Mist Secret Realm! It should be... those old relics from the Heavenly Human Race coming back!"
She had long suspected that the heritage of the Heavenly Human Race was far more than what was known, and now she was witnessing it firsthand.
Immortal Venerable Qing Yao's expression froze for a moment, then she smiled. "So that's how it is. Then there's nothing more to say. Let's just leave them here! It saves us the trouble of dealing with them when they return to the Extreme Void Starry Sky!"
"Good! Let's settle it like this!" the Grand Palace Master agreed immediately.
At this moment, in the central cabin area of the cloud boat, within a serene and elegant palace, dozens of tall figures with deep and profound gazes sat silently in a circle. Men, women, young, and old were all present.
Their auras were terrifying, like the sun shining across the sky, far surpassing ordinary Quasi-Saint Emperors. They had all achieved the formidable state of severing their two corpses. Especially the few figures in the center, they had even taken a small step towards the unfathomable realm of severing their Three Corpses Incarnation and even reaching the highest, indescribable realm.
"...How much longer until we can return to the Illusory Mist Secret Realm?"
"Not too far now. It will take about three to five years to arrive."
"That's good. We, the Heavenly Human Race..."
Before one of the powerful beings could finish speaking, a deafening roar shook the heavens and the earth, and the cloud boat was forcibly brought to a stop by a terrifying force.
Damn the flu, my whole body feels weak and powerless. I have no energy to do anything. Frustrating...
