Chapter 268 Mu Yinghua: Why Not Go Together...
Chapter 268: Mu Yinghua: How about we do it together...
Once the decision was made, Qin Muling no longer hesitated. She immediately met with the Supreme Elders Yu Lingzhou, Heavenly Monarch Bing Yuan, and others, and explained the situation.
"... How much time do we have?" Heavenly Monarch Yue Yi asked in a serious tone. This was a crucial factor. If the crisis was imminent, they would have to prioritize the evacuation of a small number of high-level female cultivators. They would have to reluctantly abandon the majority of ordinary disciples and puppet armies.
Of course, the female cultivators in the secret realm belonged to three different sects. If they chose to prioritize the disciples of Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace and sacrifice the members of the other two sects, it would be considered unfair. It would be difficult to explain to the three emperors.
Therefore, Qin Muling would not consider such an option unless it was absolutely necessary.
Qin Muling cautiously said, "It's hard to say. It could be months, it could be days. In extreme cases, the Heavenly Human Race's patrol Divine Weapon might notice this barren area in a few hours!"
Divination techniques were not omnipotent, especially considering Qin Muling's current cultivation level. It was fortunate enough that she could receive advance warning. To obtain precise and reliable information, she would need to have the cultivation level of a Great Principal Golden Immortal.
Yu Lingzhou glanced at the Supreme Elders and asked, "What do you think we should do?"
Heavenly Monarch Bing Yuan smiled and said, "Junior Sister has never let us down before. This time, I choose to trust her unconditionally. What do you think, senior sisters?"
"That's right, I think the same," Heavenly Monarch Yue Yi immediately agreed. The other Supreme Elders, led by the three of them, also expressed the same opinion.
"Then let's gather all the disciples and meet up within fifteen minutes, and then leave the secret realm!" Yu Lingzhou announced in a deep voice. Unexpected situations like this were not unforeseen by the sect's high-level members. Emperor Xin Yu had already formulated a crisis management plan. The disciples needed to be evacuated first, followed by the resources they had gathered, and finally the various Law Weapons and tools left in the mining base.
After a moment, the urgent alarm bell rang throughout the heavens and earth. In the resource mines deep within the vast mountains, the female cultivators who were working hard were surprised and stopped their tasks. This bell, which symbolized the highest level of alert, had never sounded in the secret realm before.
"All personnel, immediately gather at the main base at the fastest speed, no delays allowed!" The leading female cultivator quickly reacted and shouted loudly.
Like a giant rock thrown into a calm lake, the mining sites instantly became chaotic. Thousands of female cultivators decisively abandoned their unfinished tasks and turned into streaks of light, swiftly leaving.
The efficiency of the high-level cultivators was unquestionable. Before an hour had passed, over 95% of the female cultivators had successfully arrived. At this time, Qin Muling had already made two trips, transporting hundreds of thousands of female cultivators and most of the resources back.
"Alright, gather around Junior Sister," Yu Lingzhou announced loudly. "The Heavenly Human Race could discover this place at any moment. We must leave immediately!"
A huge Azure Lotus phantom appeared behind Qin Muling, and a large group of graceful figures rushed towards it, disappearing into the spatial realm within. Some bold and unrestrained female cultivators even threw flirtatious glances at him.
Luo Wanqing, the fourth senior sister beside him, frowned and exuded a murderous aura. If it weren't for the inappropriate timing and occasion, she would have erupted on the spot. These shameless and seductive foxes took every opportunity to try to seduce Junior Sister. It was truly unbearable!
In the blink of an eye, the scene was empty.
"I'll go first and be right back!" Qin Muling briefly said to Yu Lingzhou and the others waiting beside her, then disappeared from the spot.
In the blink of an eye, the familiar scene of the sect leader's Cave Mansion appeared before her eyes.
"Mu Ling, how is the situation over there?"
Master Mu Yinghua hurriedly approached, his expression grave. The changes in the Illusory Mist Secret Realm undoubtedly disrupted the plans of the sect's high-level members, but fortunately, the situation had not yet evolved to its worst.
Not far away, the gazes of Empress Xinyu, Empress Tong Ying, and Empress Qinghuan also turned towards them.
"There is currently no danger. I estimate that we can still buy some time and transfer back everything of value."
Qin Muling spoke as he opened the space within his body, releasing all the female cultivators he had brought back. The spacious Cave Mansion was almost filled to the brim.
"Alright, you should go over as soon as possible and bring back the remaining senior sisters and junior sisters!"
Mu Yinghua urged nervously. There would be plenty of opportunities for intimacy in the future, so there was no need to rush at this moment.
Qin Muling nodded and disappeared from the spot once again.
In the base within the secret realm, amidst the oppressive atmosphere of waiting, the last group of female cultivators arrived after more than an hour. Qin Muling didn't say much and took them all into the space within his body to bring them away.
Next, it was time to retrieve the army of puppet soldiers and various valuable resources. At this moment, only a group of the highest-ranking elders remained by Qin Muling's side, escorting him as he shuttled through various mining sites.
As the vast brilliance swept through, the mining sites, which were piled up with resources like mountains, instantly became empty, and then they moved on to the next target.
Above the Nine Heavens, billions of trillions of miles away from this place.
In a solemn and magnificent, heavily guarded grand hall, on a golden pedestal resembling a small mountain, stood a purple-golden round mirror with a diameter of three thousand zhang. Its edges were adorned with mysterious and exquisite patterns, and its mirror surface resembled a deep and distant starry sky background. The scattered lights seemed to be randomly dotted among them, occasionally revealing unknown striped flashes, emitting strands of magnificent light mist.
This was the Great Thousand Heaven Surveying Mirror, one of the ancestral treasures of the Heavenly Human Race, already reaching the pinnacle among Innate Spiritual Treasures. It was said that it could see everything in the nine heavens and ten earths, from the highest heavens to the depths of the underworld.
However, the threshold for using this treasure was too high. Apart from the Quasi-Saint Emperor level powerhouses, others simply couldn't afford the enormous price of meddling with it.
Nine majestic and ancient figures, emitting an endless aura, stood before this giant mirror like ancient god emperors, remaining silent for a long time.
"The auspicious time has come. Fellow Daoists, shall we begin?"
At some unknown time, a vague and elusive divine thought appeared, conveying its intention to the other eight empresses.
"Good!"
Eight voices responded briefly, and majestic mana surged into the Great Thousand Heaven Surveying Mirror like a collapsing mountain and a overturning river. The originally dim mirror brightened at a visible speed.
Countless images of vast icy oceans, rivers, lakes, suns, moons, and stars flashed and changed rapidly in the mirror, instantly spanning billions of miles of mountains, rivers, and territories.
With the vastness of the Illusory Mist Secret Realm, even if the nine Quasi-Saint Emperor level powerhouses joined forces, it would take nearly a year to survey every inch of the territory.
Of course, it should be noted that with the unimaginably long lifespan of the Quasi-Saint Emperor level powerhouses, a year's time was not even worth mentioning. They could hardly even take a nap in that time.
Therefore, Qin Muling spent dozens of days in the vast mountains, successfully emptying all the mining sites and bringing back everything useful to the Extreme Void Starry Sky. In the end, he even had leisure time to continue plundering for a while.
"...Junior Brother, why haven't you returned yet? Could it be that the Heavenly Human Race really won't come over for a while?"
Yu Lingzhou asked with a hint of worry from the flying red lotus-shaped Spiritual Treasure in mid-air.
"Don't worry, there are no signs of danger at the moment," Qin Muling exerted a slight force, tightening his grip around her smooth and tight waist. "So, I plan to find some large-scale spiritual vein deposits and let Good Fortune Heavenly Palace devour them all at once. The consumption of this treasure is too extravagant. We should stock up on resources now, or we won't have enough in the future."
Heavenly Monarch Yue Yi and Heavenly Monarch Bing Yuan by his side had a hint of resentment in their beautiful eyes. This guy was too busy fooling around with Elder Luo Li, exploring and adventuring, and completely ignored the two beautiful women right next to him. It was unforgivable.
"Well, as long as you know what you're doing," Yu Lingzhou pouted and gave him a glance, but she didn't continue to oppose.
Good Fortune Heavenly Palace could help cultivators cleanse their meridians, repair their physical and spiritual injuries, establish a nearly perfect Dao Foundation, and even transform their potential and destiny. Its various miraculous effects were difficult to describe in words.
Correspondingly, its consumption was terrifying. The financial surplus of a Supreme-level sect for several years might not be enough for a single use of the palace.
That's why Qin Muling wasn't in a hurry to leave. He planned to let the palace devour as many giant spiritual veins and Supreme Grade spiritual crystal deposits as possible to serve as reserves, so as not to rely on the sect's strategic reserves in the future.
They traveled swiftly until they were millions of miles away. Qin Muling then instructed Yu Lingzhou to slow down and lower their altitude.
Below them was a vast expanse of lush primeval forest, with towering trees dozens or hundreds of zhang in circumference and over ten thousand zhang in height. There were terrifying vines resembling ancient demonic dragons, exotic flowers the size of palaces, and flocks of spirit birds and beasts that covered the sky.
Occasionally, brilliant light and colorful rainbows would rise into the sky, indicating the growth of some extremely rare and precious medicinal herbs. Heavenly Medicine-level treasures were not uncommon here.
"This is the place!" Qin Muling sensed it slightly and determined the coverage range of the spiritual crystal vein.
The three women beside him joined forces and used their Divine Ability. In an instant, a giant palm several hundred li in diameter, flickering with lightning, condensed and fell with the force of thunder.
Wherever the giant palm passed, countless giant trees, spirit plants, and birds and beasts were swept up by its immense power. Then, the soil and rock layers, over a hundred zhang thick, were swept away like clouds by the wind, revealing the surface of the deep blue mineral deposit, resembling a vast ocean, with countless magnificent and extraordinary colorful clouds rising and converging into continuous mist.
The Supreme Grade spiritual crystal vein, spanning tens of thousands of li in width and an unknown number of billions of li in length, looked no different from the ocean.
Without hesitation, Qin Muling waved his hand and released Good Fortune Heavenly Palace. This precious treasure, in its complete form, landed on the surface of the mineral deposit as it swelled in the wind.
In the next moment, the immense essence of spiritual energy contained in this vein surged into the interior of Good Fortune Heavenly Palace. With every breath, tens of thousands of li of Supreme Grade spiritual crystals turned into stones and were absorbed completely by this precious treasure.
Strong winds rose, and the sky changed color. In the blink of an eye, ten days and ten nights had passed.
Qin Muling swept along the spiritual vein, only letting Yu Lingzhou and the three women collect Heavenly Medicine treasures or other treasures of the same level.
When the signs of danger became stronger and stronger, the interior of Good Fortune Heavenly Palace had already stored enough spiritual energy resources for over three hundred uses. This meant that as long as Qin Muling was willing, he could help more than a hundred thousand female cultivators undergo comprehensive optimization and improvement from the inside out.
"That's enough, let's head back!" Qin Muling looked around with a lingering feeling. The massive harvest over the past few years was enough for the three female cultivation sects to enjoy for thousands of years.
And it wouldn't be long before he returned and continued to treat this secret realm as his own backyard, plundering to his heart's content.
"Alright, the sect leaders are probably getting impatient!" Yu Lingzhou said, and together with Heavenly Monarch Yue Yi and Heavenly Monarch Bing Yuan, she entered the Azure Lotus illusion.
When my vision recovered, I found myself in the Cave Mansion of the Sect Master.
"You finally came back!" Seeing Qin Muling's figure, Mu Yinghua, who had been anxious and uneasy, breathed a sigh of relief. Ignoring the gazes of the other emperors around, she came over and hugged him, looking him up and down to confirm that he was unharmed before finally letting go of her suspended heart.
"Thank you for your concern, Sect Master. We had quite a good harvest this time." Qin Muling said, recounting the experience in the secret realm. Mu Yinghua listened with her mouth slightly agape, secretly shocked.
Being targeted by the powerful beings of the Heavenly Human Race is no joke. Qin Muling's actions were like dancing on the edge of a knife. Fortunately, with the protection of supreme luck, nothing unexpected happened in the end.
"In that case, we don't need to wade into this mess for now. Let's wait until the Illusory Mist Secret Realm is closed before going in again, okay?" Mu Yinghua asked.
Emperor Xin Yu smiled and said, "That's necessary. The Heavenly Human Race has suffered such a big loss, they will definitely be furious and use all means to track down the culprits. They won't calm down for a short period of time. It's a good opportunity for us to act low-key and watch them struggle."
The women smiled at each other. While the other forces in the Extreme Void Starry Sky were still taking risks in the secret realm, they had already returned with a full load, possessing the Innate Primordial Spirit Seed and a vast amount of resources. The future prospects were promising.
Qin Muling looked around but didn't see the figures of his senior sisters. He knew that they were still waiting in the back mountain of the Imperial Dao Peak, unaware of his return.
"Shall we go and cultivate?" Qin Muling used his divine sense to say to Mu Yinghua, his master, while staring at her dignified and noble appearance, her beautiful jade-like face, and her enchanting curves, which made his heart flutter.
"What are you up to, you naughty boy?" Mu Yinghua knew what Qin Muling was thinking just by looking at his eyes. She frowned and said, "Don't forget that I am your master!"
"I understand, Master." Qin Muling promised solemnly. After quickly greeting the emperors, he held Mu Yinghua's jade-like wrist and was about to leave, using the excuse of needing her guidance in cultivation.
"Why are you in such a hurry? What do you want to do?" Emperor Tong Ying had already appeared in front of them without them noticing. Due to her tall stature, her voluptuous and full bosom trembled slightly in front of Qin Muling, within reach, and her intoxicating body fragrance wafted over.
"I just want Master to guide me in my cultivation." Qin Muling blinked innocently, saying that Mu Yinghua, as his legitimate master, should naturally guide him in cultivation.
Emperor Tong Ying tilted her head slightly and observed the beautiful young man in front of her for a moment. Her eyes flickered, "It's a good thing to be diligent in cultivation, but your master, as the Sect Master, is busy with daily affairs. How about... I take care of it this time? And I'll bring your senior sister, Qingchan, along?"
Mu Yinghua's beautiful face changed slightly. This woman had long held ill intentions towards Qin Muling. If she had the chance, she would join forces with her disciple... Wouldn't that mean even his soul would be seduced away?
"Wait a moment, Emperor!" Thinking of the disastrous consequences, Mu Yinghua quickly said, "Muling is my direct disciple, and it is my duty to guide his cultivation. You don't need to bother."
"Or if you really insist, why don't we do it together?"
