Chapter 322: Emperor Feng Ge's Breakthrough (Part 2)
Palace of Calamitous Fate, main altar.
In mid-air, Yun Miaozhi and Mei Qingfeng stood on the clouds, while Luo Yujue, Yuan Xuankong, Meng Huo, and other core elders stood by their side, silently observing the changes in the void giant land below.
Under the continuous efforts of the sect, the once fragmented giant land has begun to recover. Elder-level disciples have been moving and relocating various pieces of land fragments of different sizes and shapes from the depths of the void, integrating them back into the main body of the giant land.
The magnificent clouds and mist that pervaded the high sky finally dissipated and stabilized, indicating that the luck of the sect has entered a phase of recovery.
However, it would take a considerable amount of time and resources for the giant land to fully recover to its previous complete state. The burden on the sect can be imagined.
The recent success story was Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace, but that was because Qin Muling led a team to plunder a huge amount of rare resources from the Illusory Mist Secret Realm, giving the sect the confidence to carry out such a super project. The Palace of Calamitous Fate currently does not have the same capital to squander.
Needless to say, Yun Miaozhi has put in a lot of effort. In these past few days, he almost exhausted himself as a Quasi-Saint Emperor. Since his debut, Yun Miaozhi has probably never been treated as a low-grade disciple and pushed to the brink of collapse like now. However, with the gloomy-faced founder of the sect, Ziyang Immortal Venerable, constantly watching him, he had no choice but to perform well.
"... Are the injuries of the three founders already healed?" Yun Miaozhi asked softly after a long silence.
Luo Yujue nodded and whispered, "They are basically healed. Therefore, the sect's high-end strategic combat power has surpassed its previous state. Even when facing Dao Court, we are no longer at a disadvantage. So, the sect is temporarily safe."
Last time, when Ziyang Immortal Venerable returned, six of his proud disciples fell in the battle against the Heavenly Human Race, and the remaining three were seriously injured and had to retreat for years of recuperation.
Fortunately, when Ziyang Immortal Venerable returned, he also brought back some elixirs and miraculous medicines from the upper realm. Therefore, under the effect of the time acceleration array, these three direct disciples have finally recovered after years of seclusion.
Including Yun Miaozhi and Ziyang Immortal Venerable, the Palace of Calamitous Fate now has five Quasi-Saint Emperor-level figures. Among them, Ziyang Immortal Venerable is still a powerful figure who has severed his second body and has an unquestionable strategic advantage over most of the forces in the Extreme Void Starry Sky.
Of course, compared to the current Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace and the Female Cultivators Union Alliance, there is no comparison. Even Dao Court, with its hidden strength, has enough power to contend with the Palace of Calamitous Fate. Therefore, Yun Miaozhi still cannot afford to be careless.
Yun Miaozhi fell silent for a moment and asked, "According to the information we have collected recently, it seems that several ancestral founders who have ascended have shown signs of returning. Perhaps it won't be long before the situation in the Extreme Void Starry Sky becomes more complicated and delicate. What are your thoughts?"
Mei Qingfeng smiled and said, "Master, if it were just one or two forces, we would indeed need to worry. But since it involves the majority of the Supreme forces, we at the Palace of Calamitous Fate don't need to worry about anything."
Those who return from the upper realm are generally not simple characters, and their goals are almost the same. In order to compete for the luck and opportunities of this timeline, conflicts between them are almost unavoidable, and it is natural for them to turn against each other.
In such a chaotic situation, if the Palace of Calamitous Fate can continue to observe from the sidelines and watch other forces fight to the death without suffering any losses themselves, that would be the ideal outcome.
"It sounds good," Yuan Xuankong pondered, "but we still have to be on guard against the forces that have grudges against the Palace of Calamitous Fate. No one can say for sure whether certain individuals will lose their minds and come after us as soon as they return."
Not only in the Extreme Void Starry Sky, but the Palace of Calamitous Fate in the upper realm also has a lot of enemies. After those old rivals return, the old scores from the past will still need to be settled.
In the current situation, the Palace of Calamitous Fate still wants to continue playing behind the scenes like before, but it seems unlikely to work. Too many forces have suffered losses at their hands, and once a war breaks out, they might be the first to be wiped out.
Luo Yujue said, "This possibility is indeed not small. However, the founders are ultimately powerful cultivators. Ordinary Quasi-Saint Emperors are no match for them. If a war really breaks out, we don't need to fear those old rivals."
Yun Miaozhi nodded, as if he had thought of something, and his eyebrows furrowed involuntarily:
"But I have talked to our ancestor several times, and he mentioned Immortal Venerable Qing Yao from Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace. She is not easy to deal with. Even our ancestor couldn't win against her. Moreover, Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace in the Upper Realm has long formed an alliance with Divine Phoenix Palace, similar to the one between Palace of Calamitous Fate and Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace..."
Mei Qingfeng's expression changed slightly. With the grudge between Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace and Palace of Calamitous Fate, those female cultivators probably hate them to death now. After Immortal Venerable Qing Yao's return, Emperor Xin Yu and the Sect Master Mu Yinghua will definitely complain to her.
If Immortal Venerable Qing Yao leads an attack on Palace of Calamitous Fate, Purple Yang Immortal Venerable will most likely not be able to withstand it. The consequences...
"Master, has it been confirmed that Immortal Venerable Qing Yao has returned?" Mei Qingfeng asked softly.
Yun Miaozhi did not hide it: "News from Dao Court confirms that she has indeed returned, and she has caused great losses to the two Emperors of Dao Court. As for Emperor Qing Huan, he has made up his mind to side with Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace. So now, Dao Court is effectively divided."
Mei Qingfeng and several core elders looked at each other. The division of Dao Court was not a small matter. After all, for millions of years, it had been the first Immortal Sacred Land in the Extreme Void Starry Sky. If it really fell apart, it would trigger a major reshuffle of power in the entire Extreme Void Starry Sky.
Luo Yujue pondered and said, "If that's the case, then our Palace of Calamitous Fate should be safe for the time being. Immortal Venerable Qing Yao will definitely focus on Dao Court and be on guard against them. She probably won't have time to deal with us for a while."
"Yes, that makes sense," Yun Miaozhi nodded. "If we express our support for Dao Court, even secretly forming an alliance with them, Xuan Yin and Wei De, the two Emperors, will surely have more confidence in resisting Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace, right?"
The elders agreed deeply. Palace of Calamitous Fate was particularly skilled at playing the balance between various forces. Stirring up trouble, sowing discord, and causing chaos... they were experts at it, making many Daoist forces unable to do anything about them.
Mei Qingfeng sighed softly, "Unfortunately, Qin Muling is still in Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace. If he belonged to our Palace of Calamitous Fate, the difficulties our sect is facing now would be nothing."
Originally, she had thought that if Immortal Venerable Qing Yao had not returned, with the cultivation of their ancestor, Purple Yang Immortal Venerable, it would be easy for him to personally attack and destroy the main altar of Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace, exterminate this female cultivator sect, and capture Qin Muling. But now it was impossible.
Yun Miaozhi fell silent, and after a long while, he said, "For now, we can't make a move against him. I have discussed it with our ancestor. We can consider selling his information to the top powers in the Upper Realm and let them deal with Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace."
"Since it is an opportunity that Palace of Calamitous Fate cannot obtain, those female cultivator forces can forget about it!"
If the opportunity to bribe and turn Qin Muling was no longer available, then selling all his information to the Upper Realm would surely pique the interest of those big shots when they learned about the existence of the Innate Primordial Spirit Root. They would come to Extreme Void Starry Sky to verify and investigate.
At that time, no matter how powerful Immortal Venerable Qing Yao was, she would not be able to withstand the threats and temptations from those superpowers in the Upper Realm. Even Divine Phoenix Palace would no longer support her.
Under internal and external pressure, for the safety of Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace, Immortal Venerable Qing Yao would most likely have to give up on Qin Muling.
"But if that happens, won't the future of our Extreme Void Starry Sky be completely controlled by the Upper Realm?" Mei Qingfeng asked helplessly. If those big shots from the Upper Realm were allowed to intervene, the only outcome for Extreme Void Starry Sky would be "land sinking," where all luck and world origins would be drained, and everything of value would be plundered and divided. In the end, the entire time and space would completely perish, becoming a cold dead domain where no living beings could survive.
At that time, only the Immortals above Taiyi and Great Principle could barely survive in the Upper Realm, while the existing billions of cultivators in Extreme Void Starry Sky, as well as tens of thousands of times more mortals, would all perish.
Yuan Xuan Kong also spoke, "Sect Master, this matter is too significant. Can we wait a little longer? At least we should discuss it with our ancestor before making a decision. Otherwise, Palace of Calamitous Fate will also face a great calamity."
The other core elders also advised, as this move was like breaking the net when the fish is caught. It should not be used lightly unless it was absolutely necessary. Those big shots from the Upper Realm were ruthless and would not hesitate to devour people. Even if they promised some benefits to Palace of Calamitous Fate, it would be difficult to say whether they would fulfill them afterwards.
One misstep would result in failure on both sides. It would be a disastrous outcome.
Yun Miaozhi's expression was complicated as he looked at the few trusted subordinates around him. Finally, he relaxed and said, "Alright then, let's put this matter aside for now. We should wait until the situation becomes difficult and there is no other choice. For now, let's leave it at that."
"Wisdom, Sect Master!"
Mei Qingfeng and the elders spoke in unison, and compared to Yun Miaozhi, they still had some bottom line. They couldn't do something so crazy as to sacrifice the future hope of the entire time and space just to strike their opponents.
...
In the dojo of the founder of Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace.
At the stone table, Mu Yinghua and Immortal Venerable Qing Yao sat facing each other, having already discussed for quite some time.
"...Can each realm derive a lotus seed?"
The girl-like powerhouse's eyes lit up, eagerly asking, "And the miraculous effects of the lotus seeds in each realm should be different, right? The higher the realm, the better the effect of the lotus seed?"
"It should be like that."
Mu Yinghua looked at her expression with some worry, and answered uneasily. A hint of regret quietly emerged in her heart.
Judging from this situation, could this founder be thinking of taking all of Qin Muling's lotus seeds for herself? Will she come to take them every time she breaks through a major realm?
If that's the case, wouldn't the other high-level elders in the sect have no chance? After all, one lotus seed is equivalent to a Quasi-Saint Emperor, but even if all of them were given to Immortal Venerable Qing Yao, it wouldn't necessarily help her break through to the Supreme Primordial Saint realm.
Immortal Venerable Qing Yao's eyes flickered, and the astute-minded her instantly understood the founder's thoughts. She couldn't help but laugh, "What are you thinking? With my current realm, ordinary opportunities are useless to me! Perhaps this lotus seed is indeed miraculous, but Mu Ling is only at the Profound Immortal realm. It may not be able to help me. Let's wait until he reaches the Great Principle realm before we talk about it!"
"Uh, okay."
Mu Yinghua agreed, feeling relieved in her heart. If the founder insisted on taking advantage of Qin Muling endlessly, she would have no way to stop her. Fortunately, she had worried too much.
"Since he still has one lotus seed unused, why not give it to Feng Ge? I valued her more back then, but unfortunately, her luck was a bit worse. She was injured while seeking opportunities in the chaotic void and has been sleeping for so many years. Now that she has encountered Mu Ling, it can be considered a blessing in disguise." Immortal Venerable Qing Yao said.
Mu Yinghua had no reason to object. In this way, Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace would have another Quasi-Saint Emperor, in addition to herself and Emperor Xin Yu, as well as Immortal Venerable Qing Yao's two direct disciples. It would be enough to ensure the safety of the sect's main altar.
Immortal Venerable Qing Yao fell silent for a while and said, "As the current sect leader, there is something I need to tell you in advance. Extreme Void Starry Sky may integrate with the Upper Realm in the future, forming a larger time and space world!"
"!!!"
Mu Yinghua's expression stiffened, and it took her a few moments to react. She asked incredulously, "Is this true?"
"The Grand Palace Master of Divine Phoenix Palace told me personally," Immortal Venerable Qing Yao sighed lightly. "Based on my analysis, this should be jointly promoted by several important figures who hold power in the Upper Realm. The purpose is to elevate the level of time and space and the maximum power that the system of the Great Dao can accommodate, making it easier for them to impact the highest Supreme Primordial Saint realm."
Mu Yinghua fell silent. It seemed that even with the cultivation of the founder, it was difficult to intervene in such major matters involving the fate of two Great Worlds. She could only choose to follow the trend.
"Did she agree to it back then?"
After pondering for a while, Mu Yinghua asked.
"Of course, the Grand Palace Master and the other decision-makers have been stuck at their current realm for too long. After trying all possible ways to prove the Dao and failing, they can only try this path of merging and integrating the worlds." Immortal Venerable Qing Yao said. As one of the few superpowers in the Upper Realm, Divine Phoenix Palace naturally had the authority to make such decisions. The Grand Palace Master enthusiastically voted in favor during that small-scale secret meeting. It is said that the mysterious owner of Genesis Star Palace also participated, but only as a Spirit Partitioning projection.
According to the words of the Grand Palace Master, the entire space-time world is like an astonishingly vast ocean, in which countless fish, shrimp, crabs, and river crabs thrive and reproduce. Among them, the top of the food chain is occupied by the largest carnivorous fish.
But one day, these big fish were not satisfied with the current state and wanted to further transform. However, the resources in the ocean were limited, and after multiple catastrophes, it was already not very suitable for survival. It became even more impossible to continue evolving and transforming.
Therefore, the big fish would try their best to leave this ocean and go to other oceans to find opportunities for evolution. They would even try to break through the barriers of space and time, completely integrating two nearby oceans, and increase the capacity of the ocean to help their own evolution.
Mu Yinghua instinctively felt that this path was probably feasible. If those big fish really found a way to leap over the dragon gate and complete the transformation into Flood Dragons, the entire ocean, or even the entire space-time, would enter an unprecedented new era.
"If that's the case, how many big fish will eventually succeed?"
Mu Yinghua asked softly.
"I don't know either. I think there might be only a few, or maybe even just one?"
Immortal Venerable Qing Yao's eyes were deep. He hadn't even perfected his three corpse incarnations now, so he had no chance to compete with those old monsters who had accumulated years of experience for the opportunity to become a saint. Unless his three corpse incarnations achieved Unified Harmony and reached the same level of cultivation as them, he would have the qualifications to participate in this highest-level game.
"But we have Qin Muling. In this unprecedented situation, Grandmaster, you may still have a chance!"
Mu Yinghua's tone gradually became firm. With the key chip of the Innate Hongmeng Good Fortune Azure Lotus in her hands, she didn't think that the future position of the highest saint would be without her own Grandmaster.
To put it another way, even if Immortal Venerable Qing Yao couldn't, Qin Muling would still have a chance, right? Even in the vast and boundless upper realm, whose status would be higher than his?
"Perhaps!"
Immortal Venerable Qing Yao blinked her beautiful eyes, and a smile reappeared on her stunning face. "Originally, I didn't have much hope, but after learning about Mu Ling's existence, I don't think so anymore. Perhaps the fate is really favoring our Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace!"
"In any case, it depends on Mu Ling's performance! If he succeeds, not only will all the female cultivators in Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace belong to him, but even..."
...
In Emperor Feng Ge's dojo.
In the closed palace sealed by layers of formations, on the spacious embroidered bed deep within the colorful curtains, Emperor Feng Ge, with a lazy expression, exhaled a satisfied breath. Slowly, she propped up her flawless and delicate body, and her large breasts trembled slightly, creating a breathtaking scene that was hard to resist.
Qin Muling rested his hands behind his head, his eyes slightly closed. The Innate Hongmeng Good Fortune Azure Lotus in his sea of consciousness emitted a bright light, rapidly restoring the almost depleted vitality and spirit. After a moment, he returned to his peak state.
"You almost took Senior Sister's life, Junior Brother!"
Emperor Feng Ge's stunning face blushed, and she said with a shy expression. In her moist and beautiful eyes, there was a playful charm as she gazed at the beautiful young man beneath her. Her lilac tongue lightly licked her glossy and enchanting cherry lips, and the restlessness that had just subsided in her body showed signs of resurgence.
"After stabilizing our cultivation, let's go out. They must be anxious waiting for us!"
Qin Muling said. Under the effect of the time acceleration array, the three thousand months of seclusion, combined with the effect of the lotus seed, finally allowed Emperor Feng Ge to achieve her wish and break through to the Quasi-Saint Emperor realm.
"Yeah, but Sister doesn't want to let you go. Let's have a few more rounds!"
Emperor Feng Ge giggled, her jade arms embracing him, and her plump and flawless body pressed down again...
