Chapter 387 Grand Palace Master: I Think You Are Overwhelmed?
Chapter 387: Grand Palace Master: Are you feeling frustrated?
In the Upper Realm, at the central hub of the Tai Chu Dao Palace.
In the dim and profound hall, the ethereal voice of the Supreme Sect Master echoed slowly and calmly:
"...The group of people who arrived at the Extreme Void Starry Sky were actually killed by the disciples of the Dao Court's Xuan Nu lineage? What exactly happened?"
"Reporting to the Sect Master, this seems to be an internal conflict within the Dao Court, but in reality, the Divine Phoenix Palace has intervened behind the scenes. They are not happy to see the Dao Court being subdued by us, so they instigated the Xuan Nu lineage to rebel and swallow up the group of people we sent over!"
A Daoist dressed in a water and fire Dao robe, with a cold expression, respectfully reported.
The Supreme Sect Master remained silent for a few moments and asked, "Regarding the people who killed our men, did the Divine Phoenix Palace have anything to say about it?"
"Reporting to the Sect Master, they have sent an envoy to explain the situation and offered a generous compensation in resources. They also proposed an agreement: the foundation of the Dao Court in the Upper Realm will belong to the Tai Chu Dao Palace, while the foundation of the Dao Court in the Extreme Void Starry Sky will belong to the Xuan Nu lineage, under the protection of the Divine Phoenix Palace in the future!"
"They have planned this well. So, what do you think? Should we agree to their proposal?" The Supreme Sect Master coldly chuckled.
The old Daoist pondered for a moment and said, "We cannot directly confront the Divine Phoenix Palace. That would likely lead to an uncontrollable situation and trigger a full-scale war. So, we can agree on the surface and find a way to teach them a lesson later!"
A direct war between the two superpowers would have far-reaching implications, which neither side wanted to see. Of course, if it could be avoided, it should be. Fortunately, the people who died this time were not important figures, just two core disciples who weren't even Saint Children. It wasn't worth making a big fuss over.
So, they would let this matter pass on the surface. When the time was right, they would either use their vassal forces or deploy secret powers to make the Divine Phoenix Palace suffer the same losses. Killing a group of their men would be the most beneficial approach for the sect.
These superpowers had been engaged in countless hidden struggles for countless years. Similar scenarios had played out many times before, so this time was no different.
"Very well, let's handle it this way!"
The Supreme Sect Master's tone was indifferent. "Select another group of people, have two Saint Children or Saint Women lead them, and then descend to another location. The foundation of the Extreme Void Starry Sky Dao Court will belong to them."
"But you also need to give them a warning. The incident from last time cannot happen again. If any more problems arise, don't blame us for being impolite!"
"Yes, Sect Master!"
The old Daoist respectfully agreed and prepared to turn and leave after bowing.
Just at that moment, the majestic and imposing hall suddenly trembled. The sudden terrifying pressure almost caused the exceptional cultivator to collapse on the spot.
"Sect Master, you... what is happening..."
The old Daoist raised his head abruptly, asking with uncertainty.
On the high platform, the majestic figure of light and shadow seemed to distort for a moment, then quickly returned to its original state, and the overflowing aura of pressure instantly disappeared.
"It's nothing, go and do your tasks!"
After a few moments, the voice of the Supreme Sect Master resounded again, and at least on the surface, there was no trace of anything unusual.
"..."
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, the old Daoist bowed once again and exited.
Once he left, the entire hall fell silent and was sealed off. The Supreme, standing on the high platform, began to perform a series of mysterious and unfathomable divine abilities, and also sacrificed several innate spiritual treasures. He thoroughly inspected his body and soul, inside and out, dozens of times, but found nothing unusual.
"...Strange, why did there suddenly be a warning sign in the depths of my soul just now? Could it be that an old rival is plotting against me? Yet I can't perceive any clues. What exactly is going on?" The Supreme muttered to himself in confusion. He didn't think it was an illusion. With his current cultivation level, if he sensed something was wrong, then there must be a problem.
After pondering for a moment, the Supreme felt that he couldn't ignore it. He transformed into a stream of light and disappeared in the hall, intending to find several closely related elders to discuss and find out the truth of the matter.
...
Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace, main altar.
"...This method won't take effect immediately, but as long as it can delay for a year or two, that person will face misfortune and setbacks, even his cultivation level will significantly regress. This should be a beneficial outcome for us!" Qin Muling, who had finished casting the spell, said. He had already withdrawn the divine abilities he had placed on the Grand Palace Master and Immortal Venerable Qing Yao. Now, the one from Tai Chu Dao Palace had already fallen into their trap, and all they had to do was wait patiently.
The Grand Palace Master said with satisfaction, "Tai Chu Dao Palace is filled with powerful individuals. Destroying just one Supreme is not enough to completely crush them, but it will be enough to cause chaos for this superpower."
As for the other hostile superpowers, they couldn't think of a way to deal with them for the time being. However, the Grand Palace Master had decided to pay attention to this matter and let certain secret forces within the sect find a way to obtain what Qin Muling needed as soon as possible.
Not only the highest authorities among the enemy forces, but also other core elders, supreme elders, and saint children, could use this invisible method to eliminate one after another.
With each weakening of the enemy, Divine Phoenix Palace would become stronger. In the future, in the competition for the new space-time luck in the Unified Harmony of the two realms, Divine Phoenix Palace would undoubtedly gain as many advantages as possible.
And it would also benefit Qin Muling. The luck and fortune lost by these enemies would transfer a considerable portion to him, bringing many tangible and intangible benefits.
"Alright, shall we continue to reap the benefits from the Heavenly Human Race?" Immortal Venerable Qing Yao said with a smile. Tai Chu Dao Palace had suffered a setback, which was also beneficial for Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace. When they were too busy dealing with their own problems, it would be a good opportunity to swallow up the assets of several vassal forces and further strengthen themselves.
After all, the number of high-level female immortals in Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace was increasing, and their demand for various resources was also rising.
So the three of them returned to the Illusory Mist Secret Realm and continued their previous actions. One by one, the fertile and abundant lands were absorbed into Qin Muling's spatial storage, and then brought back to the Extreme Void Starry Sky.
Over a month later, when the vast void landmass had expanded to a size of trillions of miles in diameter, this round of plundering finally came to an end.
In the center of the main peak where the sect's council hall was located, a thick purple cloud had formed in the vast sky, extending for billions of miles.
Above the cloud, a huge azure lotus shadow appeared faintly, accompanied by a colorful and magnificent phoenix shadow. The phoenix joyfully circled and danced around the azure lotus shadow.
In the depths of the boundless void, strands of golden-purple clouds continued to gather continuously, without end.
This was the manifestation of the overall luck of Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace. Any disciple whose cultivation level reached the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm could clearly see it.
Immortal Venerable Qing Yao was extremely satisfied with this. The current luck status of the sect's main altar had already significantly surpassed that of Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace in the upper realm, and it would only become stronger in the future.
"...Alright, let's start distributing the newly acquired territories!" In the Cave Mansion of the Supreme, the Grand Palace Master said with a charming smile, "Divine Phoenix Palace will take half of the land, and the remaining half will be distributed under your supervision, sister. How about that?"
Immortal Venerable Qing Yao nodded slightly, "It's a reasonable plan. Let's settle it this way."
After all, Divine Phoenix Palace was a superpower, so it was only natural for them to occupy more territory. The other forces within the Female Cultivators Union Alliance would divide the remaining half, which was already quite generous treatment.
Of course, from Qin Muling's perspective, Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace would definitely take the lion's share of the remaining half of the territory, after all, strength determines influence.
After discussing with Mu Yinghua and Immortal Venerable Qing Yao for a moment, and asking for Qin Muling's opinion, they ultimately decided not to allocate any additional territory to other female cultivators for the time being. The land they had previously allocated to them was already sufficient.
As for whether they would be given more in the future, it would depend on their performance. Only by increasing the investment in resources for Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace and making sufficient contributions to the Female Cultivators Union Alliance could they be rewarded and granted a corresponding number of new territories.
"So now, can I go and accompany my senior sisters?" Qin Muling stood up and said, there was nothing here that required his attention anymore.
The Grand Palace Master glanced at him, her crystal-clear and round eyes showing a playful look, and she smiled and said, "I can see that you're itching to go, aren't you?"
"..." Qin Muling was somewhat speechless. Although it had been a while since he last saw them, he did miss his senior sisters a bit, but could his Master not be so straightforward? I also have some face to maintain, you know!
"Go ahead, go ahead!"
Elegant and serene, Emperor Xin Yu suppressed her smile and gracefully stood up, walking over and holding his arm, saying, "There's nothing for me to do here either, why don't we go together and talk to them?"
Since she had devoted herself to Qin Muling last time, she naturally wouldn't miss such an opportunity. As long as she could be with her junior brother, even if they slept together and competed in bed, it was acceptable, after all, everything was for cultivation.
"Alright then."
Qin Muling naturally had no reason to refuse, he embraced Emperor Xin Yu's slender waist and tore open space, disappearing on the spot.
Mu Yinghua's expression remained unchanged, but there was a hint of regret in her heart. She actually wanted to go together, but as the Supreme Sect Master, many things in the sect couldn't be done without her presence, she was really stretched thin.
However, now her evil thought incarnation could accompany him at any time, and in the future, after cutting off the incarnation of good thoughts, she could arrange things in the same way.
In the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore.
In the palace garden hall, Xue Bingxuan, Cheng Yulan, Qi Yalan, Luo Wanqing, and other women were sitting together, chatting. The Ji twins from the Ji family, Qingchan Immortal, Princess Long Yi, Luo Qinghan, Liushuang, and sixteen other heavenly goddesses were also present.
Then there were Feng Ge, Qinghuan, Tong Ying, Lan Hua, Jing Lan, Ji Qingluan, Huichan, Miao Xin, and other female emperors.
Of course, the recently joined sisters Liu Ying Zixi and Liu Ying Qingxuan were also present, their beauty complementing each other, with a floating green and flowing red, and a fragrant room.
Although they belonged to different female cultivator forces, and there was a considerable difference in seniority between them, they were all now companions of the same junior brother, naturally addressing each other as sisters.
These women who had a relationship with Qin Muling were now all at the Quasi-Saint Emperor level, except for Bai Qingyu. Of course, Mei Qingfeng was not either, but her identity was just that of a slave.
"...We are all Quasi-Saint Emperors now, but we still can't slack off. We need to diligently cultivate in order to cut off our incarnations of evil thoughts as soon as possible, so that we can have enough power to protect our junior brother!" Xue Bingxuan, who was elegant and dignified, opened her red lips and her soft and melodious voice was pleasant to listen to.
"That's right!" Luo Wanqing, who was hot and glamorous, lazily stretched her voluptuous and charming figure, full of anticipation, and echoed, "When our junior brother achieves the Quasi-Saint Emperor level in the future, we can probably start considering cutting off our three corpses. Maybe even... have a chance to catch up to the cultivation realm of Ancestor Qing Yao?"
"You're quite good at thinking!"
Cheng Yulan, with her beautiful and elegant appearance, glanced at her with anticipation in her heart.
But when the day really comes, I'm afraid there will be more seductive and alluring women, flocking and using all their tricks to seduce and captivate the junior martial brother, hoping to win his favor.
"When we followed the junior martial brother, we never expected that our cultivation would improve so rapidly, without any unstable foundations or impure mana. It's truly incredible!"
Qi Yalan, with her dark eyebrows and cold and enchanting beauty, sighed. At that time, when she first met Qin Muling, he was just a new disciple in the Qi Refining Realm, while she was only in the Destiny Realm, worrying about the future Immortal Transformation Tribulation.
And now, how many years have passed? She has actually reached the Quasi-Saint Emperor level, a height that most talented individuals can hardly reach in their lifetime. And the junior martial brother has already become a Taiyi Golden Immortal.
As for the revival of the sect's influence, and its rapid growth to become one of the top Daoist forces in the Extreme Void Starry Sky, that was an unexpected joy.
And with Qin Muling, Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace's glory today is by no means the end.
Given time, Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace can definitely grow to become a superpower on par with Divine Phoenix Palace, or even further, becoming the only supreme and immortal Sacred Land in the new era.
Miao Xin, dressed in a crimson palace gown, elegant and graceful, smiled lightly, "Our only concern now should be that person from Genesis Star Palace, right? But there's no need to worry too much. As long as the Palace Master and Immortal Venerable Qing Yao's cultivation can reach a higher level, the junior martial brother's safety will be guaranteed. Even if the outside world knows his identity, they won't be able to harm him!"
"That's the truth!"
The women nodded in agreement. This is reality. When your strength is sufficient, what doesn't belong to you will become yours; when your strength is lacking, even what belongs to you cannot be held onto.
Just then, Mu Xiner, the leader of the carefully dressed maids, walked in with a joyful expression and reported, "Senior Sisters, the Saint Child has returned!"
The women's expressions froze for a moment, then they all stood up to welcome him.
As they spoke, a tall and majestic figure emerged from behind the screen. Qin Muling, a beautiful young man with rosy lips and white teeth, and a jade-like appearance, appeared in their sight. He was dressed in a black cloud-patterned robe, with a purple jade crown on his tied hair, and a faint purple cloud aura enveloping him. His mysterious and profound aura naturally attracted the attention of everyone present.
"So everyone is here?"
Qin Muling looked around and knew that the senior sisters must have been waiting for quite some time.
"Isn't it all for you?"
Ji Qingluan, wearing a bright yellow palace dress embroidered with peonies, held Qin Muling's arm before anyone else, her beautiful face showing a hint of grievance.
"You, you've been gone for so long, causing the sisters to not eat or sleep well!"
Ji Chenxi and Ji Chenyue, the sisters beside her, secretly rolled their eyes. Aunt, can't you be a bit more reserved? Really...
"Now that the junior martial brother is back, shall we enjoy a feast or enjoy..."
Yu Lingzhou, the young and voluptuous loli elder, approached with a playful smile.
Qin Muling smiled, "There's no rush for the feast, let's..."
Compared to enjoying a feast, he preferred to enjoy his senior sisters first.
However, in the eyes of the senior sisters, who would enjoy whom, that's a difficult question to answer.
