Chapter 273: Dust-covered Memories
Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace.
In the Medicine Garden of the Grotto-Heaven world, there are various rare and extraordinary Divine Medicines, emitting purple mist and radiant light. The rich fragrance of medicine fills the air, accompanied by faint sounds of the Great Dao.
This is one of the most important medicine gardens of the sect. The Divine Medicines planted here have all been aged for over 600,000 years. Even a single plant that ends up in an auction outside can fetch an unbelievable high price.
In the deepest part of the Grotto-Heaven world, in an area spanning thousands of hectares with the densest spiritual energy, countless Heavenly Medicines are planted. Most of them were collected and transplanted by Qin Muling from the Illusory Mist Secret Realm.
With the nourishment of the Innate Hongmeng Good Fortune Azure Lotus, these rare Divine Medicines, which were initially somewhat incompatible, have now successfully passed the adaptation period and are in even better condition than before.
"...Junior Martial Brother, the Xuan Water Spirit Turtle that I prepared for you today is still missing some ingredients. It would be best to pick a few leaves of the Night Star Purple Gold Orchid and some shoots of the Maple Feather Nine Tribulations Bamboo. Bring them back and stew them together. I guarantee you'll be amazed by the taste!" Yu Lingzhou's soft and beautiful voice echoed from afar.
"Then let's pick them! There are only two mature Night Star Purple Gold Orchids here, and the others haven't grown yet. Senior Sister, please be careful not to pick them all at once. There are plenty of shoots from the Maple Feather Nine Tribulations Bamboo, so you can take more. Both Senior Sister and I like to eat it."
With a warm and clear voice full of magnetism, accompanied by footsteps, more than ten stunningly beautiful female cultivators dressed in exquisite attire surrounded a purple-clothed handsome young man and walked slowly from the end of the path.
Although her appearance was pure and tender like that of an eleven or twelve-year-old girl, her figure was voluptuous and full, causing extreme temptation. The Elder Loli, who was guilty of being too well-endowed, was now wearing a sky-blue water-sleeved fairy dress, carrying a flower basket on her snow-white and tender arms, carefully picking palm-sized leaves that resembled jade carvings and had hidden golden radiance, and putting them into the flower basket.
"Junior Martial Brother is in for a treat tonight!"
Su Yuanzhen blushed and stole a glance at Qin Muling. Being able to use various Heavenly Medicines as ingredients and enjoying them every day, even Emperor Qing Huan and Princess Long Yi couldn't afford such luxury. They could only occasionally taste them.
Of course, with Qin Muling's talent and Divine Ability, Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace would never lack Heavenly Medicines and rare treasures. So, this was just a basic operation that others couldn't envy.
Qin Muling smiled faintly, activated his Divine Ability, and the Innate Hongmeng Good Fortune Azure Lotus in his sea of consciousness lightly rotated. A vast amount of clear qi diffused, accompanied by brilliant radiance, and countless extremely subtle chaotic spiritual energy origins surged out from within him, infiltrating the surrounding Heavenly Medicines silently, gently transforming and enhancing their innate potential.
"Junior Martial Brother, after about a year or so, all the Divine Medicines in this medicine garden can transform into Heavenly Medicines, right?" the enchanting and beautiful Qi Yalan asked.
"More or less. Heavenly Medicines with a lifespan of over a million years are nothing special. Senior Sister, in the future, when you refine pills, just come here to pick whatever materials you need."
Qin Muling said, and Xue Bingxuan, who had now reached the Golden Immortal cultivation level, used the Apex Level Acquired Spiritual Treasures for her alchemy techniques. Coupled with an almost infinite supply of rare medicinal herbs, her progress in alchemy naturally advanced by leaps and bounds.
Wearing a bright yellow embroidered phoenix palace dress, Xue Bingxuan smiled, "There's no rush for alchemy. Of course, if Junior Martial Brother is interested, Senior Sister can teach you personally!"
She didn't lack medicinal resources now. If she really started refining pills, wouldn't she be sitting in the alchemy hall for years? She couldn't leave Junior Martial Brother alone for such a long time and give the opportunity to other seductive foxes. Senior Sister felt that she couldn't be so foolish.
After a while, Yu Lingzhou saw that the flower basket was almost full and stopped reluctantly.
These Divine Medicines and Heavenly Medicines in the Grotto-Heaven world are strategic resources and are naturally strictly controlled. Even a single leaf or a tender shoot must be registered. Without the permission of the sect's Supreme Sect Master, they cannot be easily used.
Of course, Qin Muling is an exception. He can pick as much as he wants if he wants to eat.
The voluptuous and enchanting Fairy Qing Chan followed Qin Muling closely, tightly hugging his arm, almost burying it in her deep and bottomless snowy ravine, and softly said, "With Junior Martial Brother, all the disciples in our sect no longer need to worry about the danger of being injured. As long as they don't die on the spot, no matter how severe their injuries are, they can be saved. After all, we have an abundant supply of Divine Medicines and Heavenly Medicines! If necessary, Junior Martial Brother can even personally take action!"
"Other sects, including the unrivaled Palace of Calamitous Fate and even Genesis Star Palace, cannot have such an advantage!"
The women nodded one after another. While the Genesis Star Palace's strength was indeed overwhelming, it couldn't compare in this aspect, after all, Qin Muling was alone.
Princess Long Yi glanced coldly at Fairy Qing Chan and then smiled at Qin Muling, saying, "The latest news from Dao Court says that Emperor Bing Chan of the Genesis Star Palace suffered a significant loss in the battle against the Yanfu Holy Demon Palace and has now returned to the Star Palace for healing! It's unlikely that they will continue to cause trouble for a while!"
"Is that so?"
Qin Muling was slightly surprised, and the senior sisters around her were equally astonished. It was the first time they had heard this news.
"Yes, it has been confirmed. The Palace of Calamitous Fate took the lead in forming a secret alliance. In addition to the Yanfu Holy Demon Palace's Emperor Cangyin, there are also four Quasi-Saint Emperors. They joined forces to besiege Emperor Bing Chan. In the end, it resulted in two deaths and three injuries. It's simply..."
"According to my mother's estimation, Emperor Bing Chan's injuries are probably not simple. After all, they resisted five Quasi-Saint Emperors. It's unlikely for them to recover without special means. She doesn't have her little junior brother by her side now..."
Princess Long Yi said enthusiastically, not noticing that Qin Muling's eyes had dimmed.
With the Genesis Star Palace suffering such a big loss, including the high-level figures of Dao Court and all the major forces in the Extreme Void Starry Sky, they all breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that they could finally sleep peacefully.
After all, the Genesis Star Palace's previous dominance had made all the high-level figures of the major forces fear for their lives, afraid that one day they would come knocking on their doors, just like how they dealt with the Jade Pearl Star Palace and the Jade Drop Divine Temple.
Fairy Qing Chan chuckled, "That's right. Perhaps some forces with ulterior motives are considering joining forces at this opportune moment to besiege the Genesis Star Palace again. It would be best to annihilate them all, so they don't have to worry about being held accountable in the future!"
It can be foreseen that if there is no timely support to strengthen the Genesis Star Palace, they may indeed be successfully besieged in their current weakened state.
"..."
Qin Muling silently pulled away from Fairy Qing Chan's jade arm and said lightly, "Let's go back."
"What's wrong?"
Feng Xia, who was the most sensitive, seemed to have sensed something and asked softly.
"It's nothing. I'm just tired today and want to go back and rest for a while."
Qin Muling regained her composure, and a smile reappeared in her eyes.
"Alright, take a rest after you've eaten and drunk your fill. Let them wait a little longer."
Yu Lingzhou said with an undiminished smile. This was Mu Yinghua's arrangement. After Qin Muling came out of seclusion this time, she had to help all the peak-level female cultivators in the three sects to overcome the tribulation of becoming a Golden Immortal. It would take several months to complete.
Then, she would go to Emperor Feng Ge to seek guidance on her cultivation. It was estimated that it would take a few more months. With Qin Muling's special status, she was now the busiest person in the sect.
Qin Muling nodded and didn't say anything more. Fairy Qing Chan's words earlier had opened the floodgates of certain memories that had been sealed in her mind, and certain information surged back like a tide.
There's no need to describe the process of enjoying the feast. After the last pot of spirit wine was finished, Qin Muling returned to the palace in the back mountain of the Imperial Dao Peak, using the excuse of wanting to be alone and quiet. She asked all her senior sisters to leave, ignoring their resentful gazes.
In the sleeping chamber, Qin Muling sat alone in silence.
After a long time, a lotus seed, radiating a clear brilliance and full of vitality, appeared between her gently spread palms.
