Chapter 472: Gui Ying Immortal Venerable: Junior Brother, Lying Is Not A Good Habit!
Chapter 472: Qinying Immortal Venerable
"Junior Brother, lying is not a good habit!" Immortal Venerable Qinying said.
As soon as Qin Muling appeared, the core high-level members of the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Palace immediately became excited.
If it weren't for considering the difference in strength between them, it is likely that the Unintentional Daoist Lord would have taken action on the spot and forcibly "detained" the transformed body of Genesis Azure Lotus.
But forcing it was not advisable, so they took a softer approach. Since they knew that Qin Muling liked beauty, the Unintentional Daoist Lord immediately informed the most outstanding group of female immortals in the sect, ordering them to invite Qin Muling to the main hall of the sect, using any means necessary, no matter how shameless.
This is why Qiran Immortal Venerable hurriedly came and spoke extremely politely, trying to persuade him to stay. From her perspective, as long as she could make a good impression on this person, her own path would have the greatest guarantee, and she could also satisfy the high-level members of the sect.
Qin Muling pondered for a moment, stopped in his tracks, and turned to her, saying, "There's no need to thank me for the hospitality. These anomalies haven't been completely eradicated yet. If we leave them, they might cause trouble for other sects. I want to continue dealing with this matter with my senior sisters!"
His attitude was mild, but it also carried an undeniable decisiveness. These female immortals in front of him had no obligation to accommodate them since they were not related.
Qiran Immortal Venerable blinked her beautiful eyes and glanced at the cold and distant expressions of Emperor Bing Chan's female disciples. She immediately changed her tone, saying, "In that case, let me go with Junior Brother Qin? My fellow disciples are all Quasi-Saint Emperors and should be able to help!"
Dongfang Zhihan, with her pure and beautiful face, sneered, "Help? You almost got wiped out just now. Do we need your help? Do we?"
She keenly sensed that Qin Muling was not interested in these female immortals from the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Palace, so she spoke more boldly.
Qiran Immortal Venerable remained unchanged, still smiling and said, "But Junior Brother Qin saved the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Palace's countless years of foundation. It is only right to thank him for his help. The sect will also present generous gifts later. Can Junior Brother Qin give us a chance?"
Qin Muling shook his head and said, "There's no need to mention it again. We'll meet again if fate allows."
After speaking, the illusion of the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore appeared, and a gentle golden light enveloped him and his senior sisters. In an instant, they disappeared from sight.
Qiran Immortal Venerable: "???"
Behind them, the group of stunning female immortals looked at each other. This transformed body of the Innate Primordial Good Fortune Azure Lotus... just left like that? Wasn't he supposed to be fond of beauty?
"What's going on?"
After a few moments, the Unintentional Daoist Lord and the core elders also arrived in their flying lights, their faces darkened as they asked.
Qiran Immortal Venerable pursed her lips and reluctantly bowed, carefully reporting, "Master, please forgive your disciple's incompetence. I couldn't keep him here."
The Unintentional Daoist Lord angrily said, "How can you girls handle things like this? He is the Innate Primordial Good Fortune Azure Lotus, the supreme opportunity to achieve the Dao and become a Saint! If the sect declines because of this, you will all be guilty!"
"..."
Qiran Immortal Venerable also felt helpless in her heart. She did her best, but the other party simply didn't care. What could she do?
Her usual pride in her talent and appearance seemed useless at this moment, as she didn't even have a chance to show it.
One of the core elders next to her coughed and said, "Headmaster, this matter can't be rushed. Let's go back and discuss it slowly! Fortunately, with his help this time, the sect's heritage has been preserved!"
"Yes, that's the only way," the Unintentional Daoist Lord sighed. Previously, the sect's foundation was on the verge of collapse, and they had no time to consider other matters. But now that the crisis has been resolved, thoughts of Qin Muling naturally took precedence. It was only human nature.
Above the vast and boundless azure sky, the illusion of the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore disappeared in an instant.
Those anomalies scattered and fled in different directions. Qin Muling wasn't interested in small fry and shrimp; his only focus now was the remaining three flags of the Divine Demon Formation.
After several void shifts, Qin Muling finally intercepted a group of panicked Innate Chaotic Divine Demons near the boundary between the Upper Realm and the Chaotic Void.
Before they could react, a huge Azure Lotus phantom appeared and immediately suppressed these anomalies. After a short but intense battle, they were all successfully killed, and one flag of the Divine Demon Formation was recovered.
Then, Qin Muling took out the jade-bordered copper mirror and continued to deduce the next target.
"...The remaining two flags are already deep in the Chaotic Void. These anomalies are quite fast at running away!" Qin Muling muttered softly. Compared to the Great World, it was actually easier to chase and kill in the Chaotic Void because it was his special talent as the Genesis Azure Lotus, and one could say that the Chaotic Void was his home field.
"Then let's continue the pursuit!" Emperor Bing Chan said. They had already witnessed the incredible performance of their junior brother in the Chaotic Void, so they weren't worried at all.
"Alright." Qin Muling nodded, determined the direction, and controlled the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore to initiate another teleportation.
At this moment, this treasure with forty-nine layers of Innate Primordial Treasure Seal Restrictions finally revealed its true power. With just a few void shifts, they caught up to their target.
Following the same plan, the Azure Lotus phantom appeared and instantly suppressed most of the abilities of these anomalies. Linghu Xuelan and the other women attacked with all their might, and in just a few rounds, they killed them all and retrieved another flag.
Now, only the last target remained, which was also the largest force of Innate Chaotic Divine Demons, especially with Mo Yuanzi among them.
After careful deduction and determining the target's position and distance, Qin Muling controlled the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore to track and pursue.
In a moment, the group of anomalies was already in sight, but there was a problem: they were blocked by a flying city that covered an area of billions of miles, shining with golden and jade brilliance, and enveloped in layers of bright red light.
That city was obviously an extraordinary Innate Primordial Supreme Treasure, and even in the extremely harsh environment of the Chaotic Void, it was as stable as walking on flat ground. Any chaotic creatures that dared to approach and cause trouble along the way would be mercilessly crushed and torn apart!
Mo Yuanzi and the other Innate Chaotic Divine Demons were extremely unlucky. They happened to be on the path that the flying city must pass through, and naturally attracted the attention of the city's defense mechanisms.
With a deep and low alarm sound, powerful auras rose from various areas of the city, and a massive shower of colorful petals emerged, outlining the figures of numerous beautiful female cultivators dressed in splendid attire.
"Damn it! This is outrageous!" Mo Yuanzi's face was extremely ugly. How could he be so unlucky? Just when he managed to escape from the Upper Realm and planned to return to his clan's territory to recover, he was unexpectedly intercepted by this group of bastards. It was simply inexplicable.
But since things had come to this point, he could only do his best to fight.
At this moment, he had developed a deep hatred for Qin Muling. If it weren't for him snatching away so many flags, he could have easily set up the Twelve Divine Demon Formation and assimilated and devoured the entire flying city along with the cultivators inside!
In the center of the city, with a sweet shout from afar, a torrent of sword energy, accompanied by countless pure yang thunderbolts, surged like a river in reverse. Hundreds of different-shaped Innate Spiritual Treasures flew out from different directions, blocking the retreat of the Innate Chaotic Divine Demons.
When Qin Muling arrived, most of these guys were already dead, leaving only Mo Yuanzi and a few of the strongest ones struggling to hold on.
"We have a bit of trouble..."
Linghu Qingya's delicate eyebrows furrowed as she looked at the appearance and aura of this flying city, which seemed quite unfamiliar. It was definitely not from the Upper Realm, but most likely from the depths of the chaotic void of the Great World.
"I can't worry about that now!"
Qin Muling said, manifesting the illusion of the Innate Primordial Good Fortune Azure Lotus. In an instant, the boundless void became calm and peaceful, and the previously violent and chaotic chaos tide disappeared completely, as if an unprecedented and mysterious power had taken control of everything.
"...... Huh?!"
Among the group of female cultivators opposite, voices of disbelief and suspicion rose one after another, and numerous powerful divine senses gathered.
Qin Muling, at this moment, had no time to spare. He used the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore to protect himself and rushed into the depths of the boundless sword qi, his Primordial Blood Purgatory Halberd in hand, encircling the few remaining Innate Chaotic Divine Demons that were still struggling.
In just a few rounds, accompanied by the desperate and resentful curses of Mo Yuanzi, all the anomalies perished, allowing Qin Muling to successfully seize the last formation flag and a large pile of different grades of Innate Spiritual Treasures. Among them, there were four pieces of Innate Primordial Supreme Treasures alone, as well as dozens of Law Weapons with unimaginable capacity, all of which were rare divine materials and treasures from the depths of the chaotic void.
"Fellow Daoist, don't you think you've gone too far?"
With a clear and pleasant voice, a stunning girl with icy skin and snow-white complexion appeared in front of him. She wore a luxurious golden palace dress and held a brightly colored long sword in her hand, looking at Qin Muling with displeasure.
Her luck was extremely strong, with dozens of hidden and powerful fluctuations of mana all over her body, obviously all extremely powerful Innate Spiritual Treasures.
As she looked, her expression changed, a mixture of shock, disbelief, and an undisguised burning desire. Inappropriately speaking, it was like a starving ghost who had been hungry for billions of years suddenly seeing a group of naked beauties, wanting to devour them whole.
Qin Muling hesitated for a moment, but still patiently explained, "This female benefactor, this humble monk has been chasing and killing these anomalies in the chaotic void for hundreds of years. Today, I finally achieved my goal and did not intend to offend you. I hope you can forgive me."
"Female benefactor? Are you a Buddhist cultivator?"
The girl in the palace dress looked slightly stunned, looking at him with some disbelief.
Qin Muling nodded, and in the changing light and shadow around him, he transformed into a bald young monk with rosy lips and white teeth, clasping his hands together. "That's right, I am a monk from the Thunder Sound Great World in the depths of the chaotic void."
The Thunder Sound Great World did exist. Qin Muling had been told about it by Immortal Venerable Qinying in the past. As for him specifically mentioning his identity as a monk, it was to imply that he was not interested in women, so that the other party would give up any thoughts and not target him.
"..."
The girl in the palace dress looked slightly dim after hearing this, but more of it was doubt.
After thinking for a moment, Qin Muling handed half of the Innate Spiritual Treasures to her and said, "Meeting is fate, these are your share, no need to refuse!"
"Qin Junior Brother, lying is not a good habit, you know!"
A familiar and charming voice sounded, and the beautiful figure of Immortal Venerable Qinying appeared in front of him.
Qin Muling: "..."
Wearing a pure white palace dress, the noble and enchanting Qinying Immortal Venerable looked at him calmly with her stunning beauty, smiling reservedly.
"I didn't expect to see you again! It seems that Junior Brother, you have quite a connection with our Luojia Divine Dynasty!"
She was indeed quite surprised, but more of it was delight. She thought she would never have a chance to see this handsome young man again, let alone the fact that he was most likely the one rumored to be...
Qin Muling sighed and regained his composure, slightly bowing to show respect. "So it's Senior Sister Qin Ying. It's been a while. May I ask about your identity?"
Qin Ying, the Immortal Venerable, smiled and nodded, gently pulling the stunning young girl beside her and spoke in a warm and gentle tone. "This is our Luojia Divine Dynasty's twelfth princess, Yun Qingzhi. She is currently ranked fifth in line to inherit the dynasty!"
Yun Qingzhi's mother is from the same family as Qin Ying, the Immortal Venerable, and she is highly favored by the current goddess empress. Therefore, this princess holds significant power and status. Despite her young age, she has already achieved the cultivation level of Three Corpses Incarnation.
In Luojia Great World, which is a world of female cultivators, it is common for women to form Daoist couples. The goddess empress, who is highly esteemed, has a large number of concubines selected from the major families within the divine dynasty.
As the future head of the family, Qin Ying, the Immortal Venerable, naturally has a closer relationship with Yun Qingzhi, serving as an indispensable support for the princess.
Qin Muling looked at the princess and greeted her politely.
Before Yun Qingzhi could speak, Linghu Xuelan, Emperor Bing Chan, and other senior sisters appeared from the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore, surrounding Qin Muling expressionlessly, scrutinizing the female cultivators from Luojia Divine Dynasty.
Since his identity had been exposed, Qin Muling decided to stop pretending. He wanted to use this opportunity to tactfully convey the message that he already had someone and that the princess shouldn't have any unrealistic expectations.
"Hmm? What is this?" Yun Qingzhi's expression changed, looking at him in disbelief and then at Linghu Xuelan and the others. Even if she was ignorant and slow-witted, she understood that the relationship between these beauties and Qin Muling was not simple.
"They are all my dual cultivation partners," Qin Muling answered calmly. "And this is just a part of them. In the Great World I come from, I have thousands of Daoist partners. The Supremes thought I should have more, so they all gave them to me in marriage!"
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingzhi's expression became even more desolate. It was clear that even if the other party was outstanding, they were no longer destined to be together.
As the highly esteemed princess of Luojia Divine Dynasty and a top-notch talent who might inherit the position of the goddess empress in the future, how could she share the same man with so many women?
Qin Ying, the Immortal Venerable, furrowed her brows slightly and calmly said, "Junior Brother Qin, since we have the fate to meet again, why don't we have a conversation in the palace?"
Since they last parted ways, she couldn't believe that this beautiful young man's luck had once again skyrocketed. It was almost comparable to the entire Luojia Great World! Even the women around him had an extraordinary and exceptional luck and talent.
What kind of concept was this?!
Now, she was 99% certain that Qin Muling was an Innate Primordial Good Fortune Azure Lotus in disguise. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain the various divine and extraordinary powers he possessed. Those were not abilities that human cultivators could have.
Therefore, it was the correct choice for the princess to get close to him, even though, strictly speaking, it was the princess who was reaching higher.
Linghu Xuelan calmly spoke, "Sister Qin Ying, let's forget about this matter. We both understand each other's thoughts, and there are some things that cannot be compromised. Let's not make each other feel awkward."
From their standpoint, Luojia Divine Dynasty was an extraordinary existence. Even if the entire Upper Realm, Extreme Void Starry Sky, and Illusory Mist Secret Realm were combined, they would not be enough to face them.
Allowing these women to get close to Qin Muling could potentially bring disastrous consequences, which no one could bear.
Qin Muling smiled apologetically. "Senior Sister, you see, my partners have difficult personalities. I dare not go against them in normal circumstances. Please don't make it difficult for me."
"Let's part ways today and meet again if fate allows."
After saying that, Qin Muling activated the Void Divine Cauldron of the Other Shore and disappeared into the depths of the chaotic void with his senior sisters before Qin Ying, the Immortal Venerable, could react.
