Chapter 261: Alliance of Female Cultivators
As much as Qin Muling wanted to say it out loud, she ultimately didn't dare to.
As the pinnacle existence in the Extreme Void Starry Sky, the Quasi-Saint Emperor's status, power, and prestige were far beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators. It was not only offensive to covet his position, but even daring to steal a glance was a great offense. Not many people could bear the consequences of such actions.
Qin Muling considered herself bold but not foolish. She wouldn't deliberately do something that would lead to her own demise.
If Emperor Tong Yin were to learn of Qin Muling's thoughts, even if she valued this young man, she would probably hang him up and give him a severe beating on the spot, or even engage in an unforgettable mixed doubles match with Fairy Qing Chan.
"Muling?"
Emperor Xin Yu called out softly, looking at the young man with a puzzled expression.
"Uh..."
Qin Muling suddenly snapped out of it. Unconsciously, she had been staring at Emperor Tong Yin for quite some time, to the point where the gazes of the other women around her became strange.
Fairy Qing Chan blinked her eyes, her dual-colored pupils filled with confusion as she looked at him and then turned to look at her own master. She vaguely understood something, to the point where even her own aura became chaotic for a moment.
This guy was simply... words couldn't describe his audacity!
For a moment, Fairy Qing Chan almost believed the previous evaluation of Qin Muling by Xue Bingxuan and the others. It was true that they didn't exaggerate at all, and they even expressed it in a somewhat subtle and tactful manner.
"Cough, cough!"
Qin Muling, who had lost his composure in front of the women for the first time, coughed a few times to cover it up and withdrew his gaze, saying, "Since that's the case, then I'll follow what Emperor said. Sister Qing Chan can accompany me into the Illusory Mist Secret Realm. As for other matters, Master and Emperor will explain them to you."
Mu Yinghua glared at him with a hint of shyness and anger. It turned out that she hadn't misjudged him earlier. This guy really was a shameless thief who was obsessed with lust! Not only did he dare to have ideas about her, but even the Quasi-Saint Emperor...
Emperor Tong Yin, on the other hand, didn't show any displeasure. He tilted his head slightly and looked at the beautiful young man in front of him with a smile in his star-like eyes.
"Then it's settled. Time is running out, so you should go back to the secret realm with the sisters! As for the rest, I and the Sect Master will make the arrangements."
Qin Muling nodded, and when Yu Lingzhou and the other women came over, he manifested an illusion of an Azure Lotus leaf and let them all enter the inner space. Then, he disappeared from the spot.
After he left, Emperor Tong Yin narrowed his eyes slightly, thoughtfully saying, "Indeed, he has the temperament of a human youth. His desires and emotions are quite strong! If it weren't for the sisters' clarification beforehand, I would find it hard to imagine that he is the Innate Primordial Spirit Root incarnate."
The devastating charm of the young man was unquestionably powerful, but to make even the legendary Innate Primordial Spirit Root tempted... Emperor Tong Yin didn't say it out loud, but the unprecedented sense of accomplishment in his heart was real.
"He's just a perverted thief!"
Mu Yinghua's tone was filled with a hint of helplessness as she sighed, "I was really bewitched back then. How could I have thought of bringing this guy back to the sect? I wonder how many disciples he will harm in the future. Ah! Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace's reputation will be completely ruined!"
"Just forget it!"
Emperor Qing Huan gave her a disdainful look. "You act as if you've suffered so much. If you dislike him so much, why not let me deal with this disaster? I'll bring him back to Dao Court, and Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace will be at peace. Isn't that what you want?"
"Wait for the next era!"
Emperor Xin Yu snorted, "He is the future successor of Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace. No one can take him away! Don't even think about it."
The three emperors teased each other for a while before getting down to business.
"After we return, I will allocate more manpower and resources,"
Emperor Tong Yin pondered, "As for the issue of secrecy, you don't need to worry. Our Divine Maiden Sect has a special Innate Spiritual Treasure that can detect any level of mole. No spy from any power can escape its detection."
"Well, then we can rest assured," Mu Yinghua nodded. She had heard of the Divine Maiden Sect's powerful artifact before, although she was not clear on the specifics. However, in the millions of years of its existence, the all-female sect had rarely encountered spies or traitors, most likely due to the artifact.
"However, the Illusory Mist Secret Realm is still open, and the transportation of resources is urgent. It seems that Mu Ling won't be able to help the Divine Maiden Sect's cultivators with large-scale Transcending Tribulation. Of course, she can still assist the high-level elders in healing as long as she brings them into the Illusory Mist Secret Realm," Mu Yinghua said.
Qin Muling had already reached the Immortal Ascension realm, and her talent for healing and recovery with Divine Ability was even more outstanding. Even Great Principle-level female cultivators could be easily healed in large numbers.
Emperor Tong Yin nodded, "That's not a problem. However, a small number of female cultivators are nearing the end of their lifespan and can't afford any further delays. It would be best if Mu Ling could prioritize helping them resolve their Transcending Tribulation, allowing them to extend their lives. We can discuss the specifics of resource transportation to the Illusory Mist Secret Realm now."
In the Grotto-Heaven of the Divine Maiden Sect, there were also many Supreme Elders who were in a deep sleep due to their injuries. If Qin Muling could help them recover, the overall strength of the sect would increase several times over.
For such prospects, Emperor Tong Yin believed it was completely worth taking some risks to protect Qin Muling. In the past, it would have been impossible to come across such a good opportunity.
"However..." Emperor Tong Yin continued, "The sect has dispatched thousands of disciples and followers to enter the Illusory Mist Secret Realm in search of opportunities. After I return, I must find a way to notify them to withdraw as soon as possible. We can't let them sacrifice in vain. At most, we can leave a few hundred disciples in the safe area to deceive others."
Since Qin Muling could continuously bring back resources from the secret realm, there was no longer any meaning in sending disciples in to take risks. The Heavenly Human Race had always been treacherous, and while there was no way to deal with them in the past, there was no need to indulge them anymore.
Mu Yinghua furrowed her brows slightly and hesitated before saying, "Our camp already has three Quasi-Saint Emperors. In the future... there shouldn't be any new forces trying to squeeze in, right?"
Emperor Qing Huan pondered for a while and nodded silently, "Indeed, it is not suitable to add more people, even those intimate allies from the past. Even if we reluctantly accept them in the future, we cannot give them the same treatment. We can only treat them as vassal forces, otherwise, the final situation will inevitably get out of control!"
The three peak Quasi-Saint Emperors are a significant force in the Extreme Void Starry Sky, enough to influence the overall trend of the entire space-time world.
With Qin Muling as the link, as time passes, the overall strength of the sects behind the three Emperors will continue to grow, until one day they surpass all other orthodox forces, although it will take a long time.
"What about Flower Dew Palace and Azure Hill Hall?" Mu Yinghua asked helplessly, "If they come knocking on our door, should we handle it this way? They are all women, and we have had a close relationship for tens of thousands of years. If we are too harsh, we might hurt their feelings."
Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace, Divine Maiden Sect, Flower Dew Palace, Azure Hill Hall, and the Emperor Qing Huan lineage of Dao Court are recognized as the four supreme orthodox forces consisting solely of female cultivators in the Extreme Void Starry Sky.
There are a few other female cultivator sects and aristocratic families, as well as the Immortal Dynasty of the Divine Dynasty, but their overall strength is generally not strong enough to meet the standards of the supreme orthodox forces.
As for the Clear Flower Divine Palace, due to its excessively indulgent and debauched style, it is called a supreme orthodox force, but in reality, it is equivalent to a brothel in the cultivation world of the Extreme Void Starry Sky, so it is not recognized by other female cultivator forces.
It is particularly difficult for female cultivator forces to stand out, and it is even more difficult to reach the level of a supreme orthodox force. After tens of thousands of years, there are only these four remaining female cultivator supreme orthodox forces in the world, plus the Emperor Qing Huan lineage of Dao Court, barely making it five.
On the other hand, there are nearly a hundred supreme orthodox forces dominated by male cultivators, not to mention the ancient tribes hidden in the depths and the countless first-class, second-class, third-class, and even non-class sect forces.
Therefore, in order to seek strength in unity, the relationships among these five female cultivator forces have been quite close. They have supported and helped each other in many major events.
For example, the calamity that Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace faced tens of thousands of years ago, if it weren't for their intervention later on, the entire Cloud Dream Immortal Domain might have been divided up by forces like Jade Pearl Star Palace and Bright Moon Sword Sect.
Emperor Qing Huan and Emperor Tong Yin exchanged a glance, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Let's not inform them for now. If they are clever enough, they might come knocking on our door soon. We can discuss with them when the time comes."
Mu Yinghua nodded with a slightly heavy heart, thinking that this might be inevitable. After all, Mu Yinshuang, the Saintess of Azure Hill Hall, had come once before and was sent back by herself, but she obviously wouldn't give up. Next time, it might be her and her master who come knocking on the door together.
Emperor Qing Huan had a faint premonition in his heart. Perhaps it wouldn't be long before an alliance centered around Qin Muling, the Extreme Void Starry Sky's female cultivator camp, would officially form. This alliance would be unprecedentedly powerful, even surpassing Dao Court and Palace of Calamitous Fate, as well as the ancient tribes. In the end, they could contend with Genesis Star Palace and eventually unify the entire Extreme Void Starry Sky.
In the Illusory Mist Secret Realm.
Inside the palace within the floating giant ship, as Qin Muling's figure slowly appeared, Su Yuanzhen and Qi Shuyu, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately surrounded her and greeted her with enthusiasm.
After Qin Muling greeted each of them, Yu Lingzhou, Xue Bingxuan, and other senior sisters also came out from the shadow of the Azure Lotus.
"Oh, there are new people again?" Qi Shuyu, Su Yunmo, and several other senior sisters' expressions changed slightly when they saw the figure of Qing Chan Fairy. They had been waiting in line eagerly, but they didn't expect people to keep cutting in line one after another, and each one had a terrifying background. They had no chance to compete at all.
Now another one had come, so they... would have to move back again? Who knew if there would be more people coming later. Just thinking about it was heartbreaking.
How could Qin Muling not understand the thoughts of the senior sisters? After comforting them with gentle words, he thought that Qing Chan Fairy probably wouldn't immediately request dual cultivation. Both sides still needed some time to deepen their understanding, cultivate their relationship, and wait for the right moment.
So it shouldn't be a problem for Qi Shuyu and the others to enter first. In this regard, the master and the emperor would not force him.
"Sister, it turns out that your personal female officials and mounts have also come along? The treatment is indeed different!" On the other side, Qing Chan Fairy said with a smile to Princess Long Yi, her eyes faintly shining.
Princess Long Yi remained calm, "Su Auntie and I have a higher cultivation level, so we can't dual cultivate with Junior Brother for the time being. We can only let Kong Yuhuan take our place for a while. Junior Brother agreed to this."
"Oh, I see!" Qing Chan Fairy nodded lightly, thinking to herself that this little girl was doing everything she could to win favor. She spared no effort to send people to Junior Brother's side. Couldn't I do the same? I also need personal female officials and mounts by my side!
Hmm, after going back this time, I must discuss it with the master and arrange for a few outstanding candidates to come over.
"Hehe..." Princess Long Yi glanced at her calmly. The two of them were not only familiar with each other, but also had a close relationship as friends. But now that they were both serving the same husband, some subtle competition was inevitable.
"Junior Brother, what should we do now? Continue to cultivate in seclusion?" Xue Bingxuan asked, and the eyes of the other women immediately turned towards him.
This time, Princess Long Yi brought Emperor Qing Huan's Spiritual Treasure with her. The Grotto-Heaven inside was not large, only enough to accommodate dozens of cultivators for seclusion cultivation. But for Qin Muling now, it was enough.
With the effect of the time acceleration array, Qin Muling and their cultivation progress would become incredibly fast, advancing by leaps and bounds.
"Cultivate in seclusion? Then let's do it together!" Fairy Qing Chan blinked her beautiful eyes and said with a slight confusion. She didn't know the secret of the Spiritual Light of Enlightenment on Junior Brother, so she didn't find it strange. But since they all wanted to do it, she definitely couldn't be absent.
If she didn't maintain the same daily routine as Junior Brother, she would eventually be isolated by these foxy women.
Qin Muling said, "No rush, let me first send back the Law Weapons that have already been filled in the storeroom, and then use the Good Fortune Heavenly Palace to enhance your aptitude and talent. We can start cultivating after everything is ready."
"Alright, you decide." The eldest senior sister smiled and said.
The scale of the storeroom area in the secret realm was getting larger and larger, but due to the simultaneous increase in the number of people mining resources, it would take about ten days to go from an empty state to being filled.
And these Law Weapons, Qin Muling only needs two round trips to completely fit them into the space inside her body and bring them back. In terms of time in the Extreme Void Starry Sky, it would be about three days.
Two days later, in a secluded and hidden valley, the fully formed Good Fortune Heavenly Palace stood silently.
Underneath this precious treasure, a huge array had been laid out, directly connecting to a Supreme Grade spiritual crystal mine that was tens of thousands of miles wide and millions of miles long.
When the array was fully activated, countless Supreme Grade spiritual crystals would be turned into nothingness with every breath, providing an enormous amount of spiritual essence for this precious treasure.
Inside the Heavenly Palace, amidst the amazed gazes of the women, the vast and boundless starry sky slowly unfolded before their eyes. The magnificent and mysterious starlight projected from all directions, like mist and gauze, with a rich and profound spiritual rhythm permeating the surroundings.
"So... this is the opportunity that Junior Martial Brother brought back?"
Fairy Qing Chan looked around and saw that the grand and magnificent hall was adorned with bright stars on the high and dark dome. The colorful starlight and rainbow reflections intertwined, illuminating everything in the hall with beauty.
Xue Bingxuan and the other women were also seeing this precious treasure for the first time, so they were equally astonished.
Qin Muling smiled and explained, "If Senior Sisters can cultivate here for a long time in the future, their efficiency will be at least a hundred times higher than in an ordinary Grotto-Heaven blessed land, and it won't consume any additional lifespan."
Although the time acceleration array was indeed effective, it also consumed lifespan in proportion. Therefore, there were pros and cons to it, whereas the Good Fortune Heavenly Palace did not have such hidden dangers.
"Alright, Senior Sisters, let's begin!"
Qin Muling manipulated her spiritual technique, and the hall trembled slightly. Above the dome, an immeasurable and magnificent starlight poured down like a tide, instantly submerging the figures of the women.
Soon, Fairy Qing Chan was surprised to find that the abundant and majestic spiritual power within her body was rapidly pouring out like flowing sand, losing more than half of it in an instant, and it was about to be depleted.
Accompanying the flow of spiritual power were strands of gray mist. Once they left her body, an indescribable feeling of refreshing comfort and ease enveloped her.
She found that this gray mist had no specific form, existing between reality and illusion, faintly exuding the aura of calamity, karma, and karmic forces. As soon as it left her body, it was enveloped and annihilated by countless beautiful starlights.
The brilliant starlight scattered all over the sky, and ripples of starlight like water waves swayed, as if graceful fish searching for food, gathering and flowing into her body.
"So, that's how it is. I understand now!"
Fairy Qing Chan's body trembled slightly, clearly feeling her cultivation advancing from the early stage of Profound Immortal to the middle stage.
Strands of subtle starlight merged into her divine soul, containing incredible spiritual rhythm, bringing her an incomparably comfortable feeling, as if her whole body was immersed in warm and clear spiritual spring water, warm and cozy from head to toe.
Looking at Xue Bingxuan, Qi Yalan, and the other women around her, they all had similar reactions. Only Princess Long Yi, Su Yuanzhen, and Kong Yuhuan had already experienced this before, so their reactions were much calmer.
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
When Fairy Qing Chan opened her eyes again, she found that her cultivation had stabilized at the middle stage of Profound Immortal. More importantly, her innate talent and potential had significantly improved, and even her appearance, figure, and temperament had undergone some changes, becoming even more stunning and dazzling.
As for Xue Bingxuan and the others, their average talent, potential, and destiny had all been raised by one level. This meant that not only would their cultivation speed be faster in the future, but their achievements on the path of cultivation would also be higher.
"Well, from now on, our talent and potential will belong to the level of monstrous geniuses!"
Qi Shuyu, Su Yunmo, and the other senior sisters with relatively lower cultivation couldn't help but exclaim in joy. After the baptism of the Good Fortune Heavenly Palace, their cultivation had already approached the Origin Immortal Realm. However, Yu Binghua had already reached the peak of the Origin Immortal Realm and had the capital to break through to the True Immortal Realm, all because she had the assistance of Junior Martial Brother's spiritual rhythm.
Back then, their cultivation was on par with Xue Bingxuan and the other four women, but after Qin Muling arrived, the gap in their cultivation had become so despairingly large in just a few years.
