Chapter 149: Senior Sister Luo's Knowledge and Etiquette
The smile on Xue Bingxuan's face immediately stiffened.
Qi Yalan's intentions were obvious. She assumed that Senior Sister Luo must stay in the sect to handle daily mundane affairs and couldn't go out to find Qin Muling for dual cultivation. So she was considering temporarily taking her place, making a shrewd calculation.
"Junior Sister, the junior martial brother's cultivation level is still low and should not be overworked. Otherwise, it will be detrimental to his future path. Why rush things?" Xue Bingxuan advised tactfully. Qin Muling, who had already reached the Perfected Being Realm, was certainly much stronger than when she was in the Divine Spirit Realm. However, she still seemed lacking when facing the senior sisters who had reached the peak of the Immortal Ascension Realm.
Moreover, the Master had already made it clear that the junior martial brother was only temporarily hiding outside and would have to return to the sect soon. How would they handle the relationship between him and the senior sisters at that time?
"But..." Qi Yalan wanted to argue, and Mu Yinghua timely spoke, "There's no need to argue about this matter anymore. The junior martial brother's cultivation progress is fast, and it's only a matter of time before he reaches the True Self Realm. So you won't have to wait too long."
"Alright..."
The remaining three women could only reluctantly agree. They couldn't go against the Master's orders, no matter how unwilling they were.
Xue Bingxuan glanced at Luo Wanqing and thought to herself that this girl was probably the last one to enter the sect. It was because she practiced body cultivation and had the bloodline of the ancient witch clan, making her physical body unusually strong. The junior martial brother's cultivation level was still low and couldn't withstand her torment.
Presumably, the Master would also take this into consideration. Unless Qin Muling reached the Destiny Realm in the future, it would be unlikely for Luo Wanqing to get her wish.
Only Luo Huan was inexplicably excited. After bidding farewell to Mu Yinghua, she hurriedly returned to her own dojo to pack her belongings. Yueyi Tianjun followed closely behind and gave her private instructions, discussing for a long time before leaving.
...
At this time, Qin Muling was still busy on the floating land. After the Demon Race descendants' nests within the territory were cleaned up, the purification process in the dead zones was no longer affected.
"In fact, there are probably nests of Demon Race descendants hidden in the barren and lifeless interior of those floating lands without atmospheric protection, right?"
After completing a round of purification, during the meditation and rest period, Qin Muling's gaze turned towards the depths of the void, those abandoned floating lands that were desolate and rarely visited by cultivators.
The living environment of the Demon Race descendants was different from other creatures. They didn't need the nourishment of spiritual energy, so those extremely harsh and lifeless land masses were not unusable resources for them.
The voice of Bingyuan Tianjun came from afar, "That's right, but if we were to conduct a thorough investigation of those places, it would be too big of a move. It's not something we can accomplish alone. All the major sects and forces would have to work together."
"That's true."
Qin Muling then stopped thinking about it. Over 95% of the floating lands in the Extreme Void Starry Sky didn't have atmospheric protection. To explore and investigate each one of them individually, even the legendary sects would not be able to do it easily. It was destined to be a long and complicated project, full of dangers.
Who knows what realm the strongest among the Demon Race descendants has reached? If there are Quasi-Saint Emperors among them, and not just one, then there will inevitably be a series of bloody battles in the Extreme Void Starry Sky in the future.
For now, he could only do what was within his capabilities and eat what he could handle. The task of saving the world, such grand deeds, should be left to those high-ranking figures to worry about.
After seven days, Qin Muling returned to the palace for a short rest.
Just as he had sat down, Chixingzi came in to report that there was a visitor seeking an audience.
Qin Muling was slightly puzzled, but when he saw the stunning figure walking in, he understood everything.
"Sister, have you returned to the sect? It seems like you've had a good encounter on your journey to become an immortal."
Qin Muling stood up and approached Luo Huan, who was dressed beautifully and radiantly. She had reached the peak of the Immortal Ascension realm, with a stable and condensed aura, only half a step away from the true Origin Immortal Realm. He wondered how many benefits she had gained in the Cave Mansion ruins.
"Yes, the sect leader has approved this matter, so... Sister came to find you."
Luo Huan smiled with curved eyebrows and eyes, a faint blush appearing on her fair and beautiful face. They both knew why she had come, so there was no need to say it out loud. From this moment on, they were intimate partners.
"Alright, then stay here for now. I..."
Qin Muling looked around and thought about how to arrange things for his sister. After all, he now held the title of a national lord, so it would be better to give her a position of honor. That way, she could appear in public in the future.
Luo Huan's smile was gentle, just like a well-educated noble lady. "There's no rush for this matter. Sister has brought some gifts for you. Let's find a place to talk privately."
"Okay."
Qin Muling nodded in agreement and led Luo Huan into his secret palace where he practiced cultivation.
He closed the palace doors and activated all the shielding formations.
Before Qin Muling could say anything, Luo Huan couldn't wait any longer and hugged him tightly. Then, there was a storm of passionate kisses, her arms tightly wrapped around him, almost suffocating him.
Being several realms lower than his sister, he naturally felt completely suppressed.
"Sister, can you take it easy? You're almost breaking my bones!"
Qin Muling helplessly said. Luo Huan seemed gentle and reserved, more to his liking compared to his other sisters who had a slightly dominant and overbearing nature. Little did he know that she had the same wolf-like and tiger-like style in private, if not more intense.
"Perhaps, Sister was a bit reckless, but..."
Luo Huan slowed down her movements slightly, but still didn't let go of her junior brother. There was a fiery passion hidden in her beautiful eyes. "We've been apart for so long, and Sister has missed you so much, so I got a bit carried away."
Qin Muling smiled and whispered softly in her delicate ear, "Did you bring everything?"
"I knew you would ask that!"
Luo Huan gave him a disdainful look, released Qin Muling, and took out a thick stack of illustrated art books from her spatial bracelet. She hadn't missed a single issue. There were also novels adapted by master-level artists from the merchants designated by Qin Muling, each one a valuable treasure worth collecting.
"Sister, you've worked hard."
Qin Muling looked through the art book, expressing satisfaction. In this world where Divine Ability spells exist, the so-called lifelike and realistic images are not just adjectives. Those masters who have some cultivation can create works that are even more impressive than the artistic masterpieces of their past lives.
"Young junior brother, don't just focus on looking at these things! Time is running out, so... should we take care of the important matters first? Right here?"
Although it sounded like a discussion, Luo Huan's actions showed no sign of gentleness or amiability. She still tightly held onto Qin Muling.
"This place is a bit crude. How about we go to the sleeping palace instead?"
Qin Muling looked around. This was just the place where she usually practiced. Besides a cold jade cloud bed that had been around for thousands of years and a few cushions, there were basically no other furnishings. It wasn't very suitable for dual cultivation, especially since it was Luo Huan's first time.
Thinking about her past life, those countryside women who liked to cause trouble would pursue a sense of ritual even for a meal or a cup of tea. If they weren't satisfied even a little bit, they would act mischievous, let alone this most important matter in life.
Of course, Senior Sister Luo Huan was not so shallow and vulgar. But for dual cultivation, it was still better to have a sense of ritual.
"Why bother with all this trouble? I've brought everything!"
Luo Huan said, finally letting go of Qin Muling for the time being. She waved her hand and put away the thousand-year cold jade cloud bed and cushions, then took out a magnificent carved sandalwood bed with gold inlays from her spatial bracelet. She placed it neatly in the center of the secret hall.
Then, she arranged the tables, chairs, dressing table, floor-length dressing mirror, incense burner, carpet, and other items one by one. In the blink of an eye, she transformed this place into a beautifully decorated new room that was no less inferior to the sleeping palace.
Within the layers of exquisite curtains, in the area near the huge bed, there were some bedding items that couldn't be described in detail. Even Qin Muling blushed a bit when she saw them. After all, the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace had a dual cultivation sect in ancient times, although those male Dao companions were not considered formal disciples. However, the cultivation techniques and research insights on certain objects and items related to dual cultivation were at the apex level in the Extreme Void Starry Sky.
"Alright, let's go soak in the hot springs!"
Luo Huan pulled Qin Muling behind the curtain and revealed a beautifully crafted white jade bath, measuring three zhang in diameter. It was a remarkable Law Weapon, constantly producing Supreme Grade spiritual spring water that emitted a faint warm aura, filling the space.
The surface of the spring water was adorned with numerous delicate flower petals, infused with essences of Spirit Medicine. Apart from strengthening the body, relieving fatigue, and restoring vitality, it also had certain effects that were not suitable for description. Those who understood, understood.
Luo Huan's eyes were filled with tenderness as she gazed at her junior martial brother. She gently untied the hidden clasp of her waistband, and her gorgeous outer garment gracefully fell to the ground. Following that, her embroidered mid-layer garment, adorned with intricate floral patterns, revealed a translucent undergarment. A bright red delicate bellyband enveloped her ample bosom, while her snow-white skin was delicate and radiant. The fine lace straps were tightly fastened, forming an exquisite knot at the back of her jade-like neck.
What happened next was a natural progression. With a solid foundation of theoretical knowledge and Qin Muling's combat experience, the dual cultivation process went smoothly.
Qin Muling soon realized that despite his cultivation level having advanced by a significant realm, he was still no match for Luo Huan, who appeared refined on the surface but was actually fierce like a wolf. Even though it was her first time participating in actual combat, Qin Muling couldn't hold on for long before being defeated.
This result left him somewhat frustrated, but there was nothing he could do. The gap in strength was evident, and if he wanted to rise to a position of power, it would likely take a very long time.
In the depths of the space, beyond the reach of others' gazes, a group of graceful and elegant figures silently observed.
"...After the fusion and cultivation, the qi fortune has increased by at least twice, and there doesn't seem to be any sign of stagnation! It's estimated that it will eventually increase by more than double."
"Yes, and her destiny is also starting to show signs of improvement. The foundation and aptitude are undergoing transformation and sublimation, with a significant increase in potential. In the future, not only True Immortal, but even the Xuan Immortal Dao Fruit will be within reach."
"Indeed, just as I thought! If Xue Bingxuan was an exception, now with Luo Huan as evidence, no one will doubt Qin Muling's role. Whoever becomes his Dao companion will reap such benefits!"
"Well, Luo Huan will soon be able to break through to the Origin Immortal Realm, and the remaining girls won't have to wait too long either. As long as they achieve good results with Qin Muling, it's truly enviable! They can overcome the Heavenly Tribulation while lying down. Compared to the hardships we endured during our Transcending Tribulation, it's really unfair."
"No wonder those girls are all thinking about him. It's understandable though. With such incredible opportunities, he might even surpass an Innate Spiritual Treasure. Who wouldn't be tempted? Even Senior Sister Bingyuan has only had casual contact with him these days, but it seems like her luck has improved."
"I'm really looking forward to seeing what amazing things he will do when he reaches the realm of Quasi-Saint Emperor. It's not impossible for him to replace the Daoist Court, let alone revive our sect."
"Hehe, let's not say such things lightly..."
...
Inside the secret hall, three days and three nights passed in the blink of an eye.
Deep behind layers of brocade curtains, an indescribable soft moan gradually subsided, and the intense battle finally came to an end. Anyway, with the formation shielding them, the earth-shattering battle inside wouldn't affect anything outside.
"Is it almost done? When are you planning to Transcend Tribulation?" Qin Muling lazily asked, resting his hands behind his head.
"Well, anytime is fine," Luo Huan, who was lying on top of him, gently responded. She slightly raised her head and looked at him with a happy and infatuated expression in her beautiful eyes. "The accumulation is already quite substantial, and the effect is even better than what others estimated! I believe that the Origin Immortal Dao Fruit after Transcending Tribulation will definitely be perfect. You've really worked hard, little junior brother!"
Qin Muling thought to himself, how could the effect not be good? What you've obtained is the ingenious Dao rhyme of the Innate Primordial Spirit Root. Such a heaven-defying opportunity might even surpass the emperors of the Daoist Court back then.
"It's just that the conditions here are not as convenient as the main altar of our sect. If you want to Transcend Tribulation, it might not be so easy," Qin Muling suggested. "Why don't you go back and cross the tribulation first, and then come back when the Origin Immortal Dao Fruit is stable?"
Luo Huan shook her head. "There's no need for that trouble. As long as you're here, the Origin Immortal Heavenly Tribulation is nothing. I can easily overcome it here too."
For other cultivators, the Origin Immortal Heavenly Tribulation is undoubtedly a terrifying ordeal. Even with thorough preparation and the protection of senior disciples, very few can successfully achieve enlightenment. However, for Qin Muling, an existence that cannot be understood by common sense, Luo Huan is not worried at all. No matter where he Transcends Tribulation, it will be the same.
Qin Muling thought about it and didn't say anything more.
"By the way, Senior Sister still doesn't have any good news, right?" Luo Huan suddenly held him, asking with a hint of nervousness.
Qin Muling was momentarily stunned before understanding what she meant. He shook his head and said, "How can it be so fast? These things depend on fate and destiny. They can't be rushed."
"That's not necessarily true!" Luo Huan held him down, her smile gentle and beautiful, but her actions were not subtle at all. "If you want offspring, you have to work hard. Come on!"
