Chapter 555: Immortal Venerable: World Creating Azure Lotus is most fond of beauty...
Extreme Void Starry Sky.
Above the vast and boundless sky, a luxurious palace with a radius of a hundred miles and surrounded by colorful radiance slowly flew over. Qin Muling and her senior sisters stood on the beautiful jade coral crystal corridor, silently observing the increasingly vast Great World.
Several years have passed since Qin Muling left, and the size of the Extreme Void Starry Sky has increased by nearly 20%, and it is still growing.
Under normal circumstances, when a Great World ascends, this relatively slow growth will continue for hundreds of years before gradually stabilizing. However, with the World Creating Azure Lotus favoring the Extreme Void Starry Sky, this performance will only be more exaggerated.
"This time, let's promote you to the level of a Profound Level Middle Grade Great World first. It should be enough for now. After you adapt to the changes in the laws of heaven and earth, we can consider promoting to a Profound Level High Grade Great World."
Qin Muling said to Qin Yulan. The transformation and promotion of a Great World is not a small matter. In order to make her adapt, and also for the billions of living beings within the world to adapt, taking it step by step is the most prudent choice.
Moreover, besides the Extreme Void Starry Sky, in the depths of the boundless chaotic void, there is probably no other Great World that can ascend from a dying last-grade Great World to a Profound Level Low Grade Great World in less than a hundred years.
"Well, I have no objections. Little junior brother, you decide!" Qin Yulan said with a smile. Choosing to follow Qin Muling was the wisest decision she had made since her birth. With him around, what else did she need to worry about?
Qin Muling nodded. "Then let's hold the sacrifice ceremony! Since we already have enough resources, it's better to do it sooner rather than later."
As a result, the luxurious palace slowly turned and accelerated, soon turning into a stream of light disappearing at the end of the sky.
Immortal Dynasty's Heavenly Court, with its thirty-three layers of purple clouds stretching for billions of miles, supported the magnificent and beautiful palaces and gardens covered in colorful radiance.
The location of the sacrifice was in a separate palace area. As the ceremony officially began, Qin Muling placed many treasures from the Primeval Demon Palace on the altar. These were gifts from the Moonlight Demon Lord and the others, including the remains of some chaotic monstrous kings and the corpses of Innate Chaotic Divine Demons.
When the ceremony reached its midpoint, colorless and invisible sacrificial fire appeared out of thin air and burned fiercely on these precious offerings, quickly reducing them to ashes.
Finally, Qin Muling activated the Azure Lotus projection, and a huge glowing portal appeared in mid-air. A massive amount of world essence poured down like a surging ocean, disappearing when it landed on the altar.
In the depths of the underground, the crystal-clear world essence ocean began to expand rapidly once again.
Every three months, the Primeval Demon Palace would give Qin Muling a batch of world essence, equivalent to the entire wealth of a Profound Level Middle Grade Great World. These were the portions Qin Muling had intercepted before, and this time, he gave them all to the Extreme Void Starry Sky.
After three days and three nights, as the Azure Lotus projection slowly closed, a silent vibration spread from all directions of the Great World.
Just a few years after ascending to a Profound Level Low Grade Great World and with enough resources, the Extreme Void Starry Sky began to transform and ascend once again.
A strange Dao Rhyme fluctuation descended from the depths, instantly spreading to every corner of the Great World.
Above the vast blue sky, the dazzling and colorful radiance dyed the clouds. A purple-gold pillar, thick and substantial, with a strong Dao Rhyme aura, descended and enveloped Qin Muling's body.
The ten-layered Luck Huagai above Qin Muling's head expanded further and became more solid under the immense heavenly merits, making his soul and body even stronger, and his cultivation even deeper.
Following him, thousands of golden-purple radiance fell one after another, enveloping Yu Xingning, Linghu Xuelan, Immortal Venerable Qing Yao, and many other senior sisters.
At the distant end of the Great World, the thick edge of the boundary membrane began to expand outward once again. With every breath, it absorbed immeasurable chaotic energy and transformed it into the surging spiritual energy and Spirit Inspiring Dao Rhyme within the Extreme Void Starry Sky.
As time passed, new mountains, rivers, lakes, plains, primitive forests, rare birds and exotic beasts, and even vast and magnificent oceans evolved.
After ten days and nights, the transformation and ascension of the entire Extreme Void Starry Sky finally came to an end.
This time, the scale of the entire Great World has expanded more than four times on its previous foundation, with over a thousand new giant continents appearing, the largest of which has a circumference of over a million trillion miles.
Moreover, the existing giant continents, mountains, rivers, lakes, plains, and even vast oceans have all significantly increased in size. This is the benefit brought about by the transformation and promotion of the entire Great World.
Of course, there are also many new species appearing on the newly born giant continents. Various rare birds and beasts, Spirit Medicine, precious mineral resources, and even top-grade spiritual veins, spiritual springs, and spiritual caves can be seen everywhere.
After this transformation, the average concentration of spiritual energy in the world has once again increased by more than twice, and the quality of spiritual energy has become even purer, making it more conducive for living beings to absorb and refine. The entire world's system of heavenly laws and principles has also begun to evolve and improve towards a more complex and rigorous direction.
This change can benefit billions and trillions of living beings in this realm, including all cultivators, making their foundations and potential for future growth stronger and more remarkable.
The Profound Level Great World's Quasi-Saint Emperors that have emerged are not on the same level as the Quasi-Saint Emperors of the Yellow Level Great World. Even if their cultivation techniques and personal Spiritual Treasures are at the same level, the difference in this aspect is obvious.
Only Qin Muling does not have this limitation, and the same goes for many of his senior and junior sisters around him. Their combat power can already be compared to the top experts of the Earth Level High Grade Great World, thanks to the blessings of the World Creating Azure Lotus.
"...Little junior brother, it's great to have you!"
At this moment, Qin Yulan is radiant, stunningly beautiful, with a captivating appearance and temperament. The transformation and promotion of the Extreme Void Starry Sky have made her the greatest beneficiary as the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao's will.
From this moment on, the size and foundation of the Extreme Void Starry Sky have become an unquestionable Profound Level Middle Grade Great World, and it is also one that has accumulated quite abundantly.
"...So this is what it means for a world to be promoted? It feels pretty good. But can you take me out for a walk next time? I also want to travel through the chaotic void!"
Wearing a bright yellow embroidered phoenix dress, with picturesque features, the beautiful and pure Princess Qin Luyuan stands beside Qin Muling, her star-like eyes filled with anticipation.
Qin Muling ponders for a moment, "The war between the Primeval Demon Palace and the three thousand Earth Level Great Worlds in the depths of the chaotic void is too dangerous. For safety reasons, you should stay at home for a while! After this war is over, I can take you out."
After several years of not seeing each other, this girl has been cultivating diligently in the time acceleration array. Now she looks about twelve or thirteen years old, and her cultivation has reached the level of a Quasi-Saint Emperor. She is proficient in alchemy, refining, formations, and talismans, and has at least the ability to protect herself.
With Qin Luyuan's unparalleled powerful bloodline, even if she is a monstrous genius seed of the Earth Level High Grade Great World, she can only be easily defeated by her. At least she needs to be two realms higher than her to have the qualifications to fight her.
"Alright, alright! Dad, just don't forget your promise."
Qin Luyuan pouts a little disappointedly, but she doesn't continue to insist.
Mu Yinghua looks at Qin Muling and asks, "With our overall strength now, can we contend against an Earth Level Low Grade Great World?"
"Absolutely."
Qin Muling affirms.
If the number of top experts and the overall strength of the cultivators are taken into account, the Extreme Void Starry Sky is now quite close to an Earth Level Low Grade Great World.
If only overall luck is considered, the Extreme Void Starry Sky is now equivalent to a standard Earth Level Middle Grade Great World. Of course, Qin Muling himself plays a significant role in this.
As the transformation and sublimation of the Great World nears completion, thousands of Immortal Dynasty female cultivators have also experienced breakthroughs in their cultivation realms, along with significant improvements in their Dao Foundation, destiny, and fortune.
"Alright, little junior brother, this is the authority of the third quasi-saint. Take it and arrange it for your senior sisters!"
Qin Yulan smiles, and a dazzling crystal appears between her jade hands. Thick purple clouds envelop it, gathering into a misty canopy, exuding a profound and majestic aura, as if it contains a world within.
Qin Muling nods and takes the crystal, his gaze sweeping around, "Which senior sister wants it, please speak up?"
Wearing a pale golden sun and moon embroidered phoenix dress, dignified and elegant, the magnificent Grand Palace Master Zi Shiyun smiles and says, "Then give it to me? Our Divine Phoenix Palace still doesn't have a quasi-saint!"
The first two quasi-saints are Mu Yinghua and Emperor Bing Chan, representing the former Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace and Genesis Star Palace, respectively. It seems reasonable to assign the authority of the third quasi-saint to Divine Phoenix Palace.
However, the Tranquil Brahma Heavenly Maiden of the Buddha Domain Pure Land definitely has thoughts, not to mention Emperor Tong Ying, Emperor Qing Huan, Ji Qingluan, and Miao Xin Buddha.
"Well, let's give it to Divine Phoenix Palace first. The next sub-saint authority will belong to our Buddha Domain Pure Land," said the Tranquil Brahma Heavenly Maiden, her dress as white as snow, noble and charming, yet still holy, with a slight smile.
The other women had no objections, so Qin Muling handed the crystal to Zi Shiyun, the Grand Palace Master. After receiving it, she immediately refined it on the spot and naturally obtained the third sub-saint position in the Extreme Void Starry Sky.
In the next ten days, Qin Muling continued to choose seclusion and accompany her senior and junior sisters in cultivation. With the effect of the time acceleration array, it was not considered too short.
Considering the intense war in the Primeval Demon Palace, Qin Muling didn't dare to delay for too long. On the eleventh day, she once again controlled the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore and set off for the Dragon Spring Great World.
Meng Ziqing and Meng Xuan remained at home, carefully managing the Meng Clan's foundation and gradually gathering numerous vassal forces in the surrounding void. As for Meng Xuehuan, she had long been ordered to lead a large army of cultivators to participate in the war in the Primeval Demon Palace.
There was no choice. Faced with the forced conscription of three thousand Earth Level Great Worlds, the Profound Level Middle Grade Great Worlds had no chance to refuse.
Fortunately, Qin Muling knew very well and selectively ignored their existence. Therefore, until now, the army of cultivators in the Dragon Spring Great World and the Yun Wuyun and others from the Luojia Divine Dynasty had not suffered any substantial losses.
In Meng Ziqing's chamber.
"... Junior Brother, most of those armies are composed of slave cultivators from the four families. It doesn't matter if they all die. If you don't want to hold back, you don't have to trouble yourself anymore," said Meng Ziqing, satisfied and blushing, as she tightly embraced Qin Muling, her voice soft and tender.
Qin Muling said, "It's alright. I can handle it. Besides, with so many Profound Level Great Worlds participating in the war, they won't pay attention to the abnormalities in the Dragon Spring Great World."
In fact, the losses of power in those Profound Level Great Worlds were not significant. Qin Muling mainly targeted the high-level cultivators of those Earth Level Great Worlds. Only by thoroughly defeating them could there be hope for an early end to the war.
With a beautiful face and a shy and timid expression, Meng Xuan supported her delicate and snowy body and came over to embrace Qin Muling, saying softly, "Junior Brother, how long do you think this war will last?"
Qin Muling said, "It's hard to say. Maybe it will last until I become a Primordial Origin Saint Supreme?"
"Yes, that's true. Only a true Primordial Origin Saint Supreme can easily subdue so many Earth Level Great Worlds!"
Emperor Qiu Wu and Yu Xiyuan exchanged glances and had no objections to Qin Muling's view.
After spending ten days with Meng Ziqing and the others, Qin Muling left them a batch of Supreme-level Heavenly Medicine resources and then set off for the Luojia Divine Dynasty.
The backing of the Luojia Divine Dynasty was actually the Hazy Moon Divine Palace.
Under the summons of the palace master, Empress Yun Wuyun and the sub-saint of the Luojia Divine Dynasty had already led their troops to the Primitive Demon World. In the capital, it was left to the queen, Xiao Ruomei, and the Immortal Venerables Qinying, Xiao Yuhuan, Yun Qingzhi, as well as numerous princesses and noblewomen from the royal family.
After Qin Muling arrived, she continued to accompany Xiao Ruomei and the others for ten days, leaving behind a batch of Supreme-level Heavenly Medicine resources before leaving. During this critical period of the intense war, there was not much time, and she could only compensate them in the future after she became a saint.
Controlling the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore, Qin Muling hurriedly traveled. After more than ten days, the Primitive Demon World was already in sight. Countless high-level cultivators formed thousands of large formations, and the fierce attacks never ceased.
Qin Muling originally planned to directly pass through the Heavenly Dao Formation and return to her secluded Cave Mansion secret palace. However, at the critical moment, she changed her mind and decided to temporarily consume her lifespan to increase her cultivation and go deep into the camp of the allied forces to take a look.
The three thousand Earth Level Great Worlds each had their own separate camps, usually supported by Grotto-Heaven realms at the level of Innate Primordial Supreme Treasures, surrounded by multiple Grotto-Heaven worlds at the level of Innate Spiritual Treasures, and filled with a massive number of high-level cultivators, puppet armies, and Multi-Storied Heavenly Boats.
Outside the Grotto-Heaven worlds, there were multiple formations and restrictions that completely isolated the violent and chaotic spatial turbulence, ensuring that the cultivators inside could live and cultivate normally and comprehend profound mysteries. They would only leave the camp to fight after receiving orders.
As for the larger number of Profound Level Great Worlds, due to their relatively limited accumulation, they couldn't be as extravagant as the Earth Level Great Worlds. Therefore, most of them huddled together for warmth and set up camps in the distant chaotic void.
Qin Muling naturally did not go to see the camps of the Profound Level Great World, but instead observed the Earth Level Great World, and directly passed through layers of array formations, sneaking into the Grotto-Heaven realm of the Confucian Saint Academy.
The space spanning thousands of billions of miles was beautiful, with picturesque scenery and clear mountains and waters, like a secluded paradise cut off from the world.
Numerous exquisite and elegant gardens and pavilions, palaces and mansions were situated among the mountains and waters, numbering in the tens of thousands.
Among these buildings and gardens, scholars and Confucian scholars with high hats and flowing robes could be seen everywhere. They gathered in groups to discuss classics and philosophy, compose poems and essays, or engage in martial arts competitions, truly living carefree lives.
"...Brother Tang, since we have nothing to do today, why don't we invite Immortal Venerable Yuyu and bring some good wine to enjoy the flowers and compose poetry in the Luoxia Mountain Range?"
"Brother Yi, I'm afraid that won't be possible. Immortal Venerable Yuyu and her elite disciples have been in seclusion recently, preparing to serve the World Creating Azure Lotus in the future!"
"What? Even someone as virtuous as her, the Saintess, has to make sacrifices. How can those few quasi-saints above her..."
"Don't think too much about it. The recent selection in our Confucian Saint Academy is for the preparation of the World Creating Azure Lotus. Any talented and beautiful female cultivator is on the list of candidates, and the Saintess is naturally no exception!"
"It's a pity. What merits and abilities does this World Creating Azure Lotus have? Why can it enjoy so many beautiful women from our Confucian Saint Academy..."
"Hush, keep your voice down! You can't say such things casually. If the quasi-saints find out, we'll be in big trouble! It's about the opportunity to achieve sainthood. How can we compare ourselves to the World Creating Azure Lotus?"
"Well, it's really a pity..."
Qin Muling paused for a moment in the distance, looking down at a group of Confucian scholars murmuring by a forest and spring. Judging from their attire, they should undoubtedly be the core elite seeds of the Confucian Saint Academy, with talents and cultivation not considered weak.
After pondering for a few moments, Qin Muling activated his divination technique and quickly deduced the cause and effect.
Without causing any trouble, he quietly sneaked towards the depths of the mountains and soon arrived at his destination.
The security here was particularly tight, and the comings and goings were all high-level female cultivators with bright eyes and white teeth. There was no sign of a single male cultivator.
Large pink pavilions and embroidered buildings were situated in the quiet valley, with exquisite and elegant layouts that were exquisitely crafted. Every detail was extravagantly beautiful.
In the jade coral corridor, one could occasionally see stunning women in light veils walking gracefully.
Qin Muling went deeper and soon arrived inside a magnificent and grand palace.
"...You ignorant little girls, you should all put more effort into pleasing this palace. Each and every one of you is so timid and can't even handle such trivial matters. How will you gain the favor and attention of the World Creating Azure Lotus in the future?"
A crisp and pleasant scolding voice sounded, accompanied by the timid responses of numerous young girls with beautiful appearances.
In the hall, there was a large and luxurious hot spring bath, and an elegant and stunning beauty sat on a lotus throne in the center of the bath, lecturing a large group of beautiful female cultivators in front of her.
They were all completely naked at the moment, their snow-white and dazzlingly enchanting bodies fully exposed under the pearl light, presenting a breathtakingly beautiful scene.
"Master, do we... do we really have to use such shameless means to seduce the World Creating Azure Lotus? Isn't it a bit too much? Will he really be interested in us?"
A naive and innocent female cultivator with clear and innocent eyes asked in a low voice, her arms crossed in front of her, her jade face blushing.
Pure as a blank sheet of paper, she was really not accustomed to this kind of secret training, especially when even her noble and elegant, pure and untainted master had become like a wanton witch at the moment, completely subverting her beliefs and values...
Immortal Venerable Yuyu snorted, "What else can we do if not this? The World Creating Azure Lotus is most fond of beauty. The cunning and treacherous witches of the Primeval Demon Palace have long used all kinds of shameless tricks to confuse him! If you don't study hard, how will you win him over in the future?"
"Hurry up, each and every one of you should study hard and not be shy!"
