It turns out, they were the main characters.

Mu Zhian found a large tree nearby where he could find shade, sat down cross-legged, and planned to meditate and rest for a while.

Perhaps because of his Refining Spirit Realm, his senses were much more acute than those of ordinary people. Even with his eyes closed, he could vaguely hear the sound of fabric rubbing against his skin.

Mu Zhian calmed himself down slightly, then held his breath and quietly opened his eyes.

Not far away, there was a bottomless pool. The water was crystal clear, reflecting the swaying shadows of the trees. The surface of the water seemed to sparkle with countless stars, making it extremely enchanting.

However, compared to the scenery of the Reincarnation Pool, there is a more enchanting sight right now.

The fairy in the green dress had her back to Mu Zhian. The thin fabric of her dress had just been removed from her shoulders, revealing her fair and delicate shoulders, which looked almost translucent in the sunlight. She untied the ribbon that was tied to her long, flowing black hair and lightly touched the surface of the pool with her toes.

Ripples spread across the surface of the pool, reflecting the graceful figure of the fairy in the green dress. The woman's hair cascaded down to her calves, and her figure beneath the thin green dress was both alluring and ascetic. A thin mist always shrouded her, making it difficult to see her true appearance.

Her snow-white skin was also covered with a faint silver glow, like a fairy living in the Moon Palace, her figure concealed by the moonlight.

Damn it, this holy light… Mu Zhian felt a little regretful.

As he thought of this, the fairy in the green dress had already stepped into the Reincarnation Pool. However, from beginning to end, Mu Zhian still couldn't see anything, only a beautiful back view that aroused endless imagination.

The rest is up to your imagination.

What kind of path does the Yaochi Holy Land cultivate? Why are all the people there radiating holy light...? Mu Zhian sighed inwardly, then took out the ancient book he had previously borrowed from the Lord of the Forbidden Zone from his storage ring.

The above records events that occurred in the ancient Nine Provinces, including the Buddha of the Western Regions, the evil gods of the Southern Wilderness, and even the founding time and certain events of the Liangyi Sect. The records above are much more detailed than the ancient books circulating outside.

However, what Mu Zhian cared about was not these things, but rather...

He turned to the page he had seen before about unlucky constitutions.

"According to ancient records, the concept of 'misfortune constitution' existed as early as ten thousand years ago. The appearance of each such constitution was accompanied by the downfall of a dynasty. From ten thousand years ago to the present, a total of ten dynasties have perished because of this 'misfortune constitution'..."

Mu Zhian looked at the records in the ancient book, but his eyes showed a thoughtful look.

"Fairy sister, may I ask you a question?" Mu Zhian looked up at the fairy in the green dress in the Reincarnation Pool and asked.

"You said."

A voice as beautiful as a celestial melody floated into my ears, dreamlike and melodious.

"If a dynasty loses its fortune, will it directly lead to its downfall?"

In this world of cultivation, the concept of 'luck' is something no one can avoid. It is ethereal and intangible, yet it is a real phenomenon.

Whether a dynasty is strong or not can be discerned not only by cultivators, but also by some feng shui divination.

"The imperial family's fortune is all purple, and whether the nation's fortune is strong or not can be judged directly by observing the purple aura of the dynasty."

The fairy in the green dress leaned lazily against the Reincarnation Pool, feeling the comfort of the surging spiritual energy nourishing her body. She raised her slender fingers and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. Her clear and melodious voice said, "When the country is peaceful and the people are not displaced, the purple energy will grow stronger and stronger."

"The fate of the Great Qian Dynasty is nearing its end," the fairy in the green dress revealed a secret.

"Can the misfortune of one person affect the fate of an entire dynasty?" Mu Zhian asked the question that concerned him most.

According to ancient records, from 10,000 years ago to the present, there have been ten dynasties, and each dynasty was associated with a "misfortune constitution" when it fell.

"It is impossible for one person to influence the fate of a nation, no matter what," the fairy in the green dress replied.

“That’s a bit strange… The ancient book I’m reading says that every time a dynasty falls, a person with a cursed constitution appears… Fairy sister, do you know what a cursed constitution is?” Mu Zhi’an asked.

“I have never heard of such a constitution,” said the fairy in the green dress.

"However, it is impossible for one person to affect the fate of the nation, unless... that person is at the Dao Integration Realm."

The Dao Integration Realm...? Mu Zhian's mind began to stir.

So it seems that Sister Mengrou might not be cursed with bad luck...?

After all, according to the fairy in the green dress, only a cultivator at the Dao Integration Realm could influence the downfall of a dynasty.

Wei Mengrou has good talent for cultivation, but she is only at the Refining God Realm now, which is like a baby killer whale, far from being a full-grown killer whale.

"Can the bad luck of a Dao Integration Realm cultivator affect the downfall of a dynasty?" Mu Zhian repeated, feeling a sense of awe.

As expected of a powerhouse at the Dao Integration Realm, he can indeed turn the world upside down with a flick of his wrist.

Then, looking at the fairy in the green dress bathing in the Reincarnation Pool in the distance, his eyes couldn't help but burn with desire.

The thought of helping such a powerful figure reshape his cauldron... makes me a little excited.

Just as Mu Zhian was about to close the ancient book, his gaze suddenly froze on a certain word in the book.

"The first dynasty ten thousand years ago was called the Great Qian Dynasty."

The first dynasty was called the Great Qian Dynasty, and the current dynasty is also the Great Qian Dynasty.

Is it a coincidence...? Mu Zhian looked at the records of the first dynasty's royal surname and other information with suspicion in his eyes, and found that apart from the name of the dynasty being the same, everything else was completely different.

"You fought so fiercely for that girl in the forbidden area today. Aren't you worried that you'll be challenged by disciples from other forbidden areas after you leave this place?"

Just then, the melodious voice of the fairy in the green dress suddenly reached his ears, pulling Mu Zhian back to reality from his thoughts.

He closed the ancient book and put it into his storage ring, shaking his head and smiling, "After the news of Zhou Hao's challenge spread, it will prevent most people from continuing to invite me to spar."

After all, if a cultivator at the second level of the Spirit Refinement stage could be suppressed with a mere wave of his hand, other peers who might want to make a move would have to carefully consider their own strength after today.

The Azure Lotus of the Azure-Skirt Fairy can seal the cauldron of another across realms. If the other party's strength is three or four grades higher than her own, the sealing effect will be weaker.

But you should know that among your peers, how many can currently reach the third level of the Refinement of Spirit realm?

Even within the forbidden zone, very few people can reach the third rank of Refining Spirit so early.

"Among those disciples from the forbidden zones today, there are two cultivators at the third level of the Spirit Refinement Realm and one at the fourth level. If they challenge you, with your current cultivation level, the Purifying Lotus won't be able to seal their cauldrons for too long," the fairy in the green dress reminded her intentionally or unintentionally.

"Then I can just refuse, right?" Mu Zhian said with a smile.

He wasn't the kind of person who was stubborn and didn't necessarily want to fight to the death with the other party. Anyway, in the forbidden area, even if some of these disciples disliked him because of Ye Lingxuan, they wouldn't dare to make a move on him casually.

The fairy in the green dress smiled and nodded: "It's good that you can figure it out yourself."

She had seen too many so-called geniuses in the past. Some of them were indeed very talented, but they were also arrogant because of it. They could easily perish because of the arrogance that came with their talent.

But she didn't see such arrogance in Mu Zhian. This young man was adaptable and wouldn't fight to the death with others.

Before we knew it, half an hour had passed.

The sky had unknowingly darkened. In the quiet evening, the fairy in the green dress walked out of the Reincarnation Pool. A few drops of water seemed to remain on her snow-white skin. She had bright eyes, black hair, a cool face, and a snow-white neck.

"Since you can nurture your spiritual consciousness in the Reincarnation Pool, why don't you stay here and meditate and cultivate?" Mu Zhian looked at the fairy in the green dress floating in mid-air, glanced at her hazy and beautiful figure, and couldn't help but ask.

"What I need is the special spiritual energy from the Reincarnation Pool to reshape my body, but in terms of nurturing my spiritual consciousness, the effect will be better within your body." The fairy in the green dress had a faint smile in her eyes.

"Speaking of which, after the physique was tested in front of the Reincarnation Pool, seven streams of spiritual energy that strengthened the physique entered the Natural Furnace. Did Fairy Sister also feel it?" Mu Zhian suddenly remembered this matter and humbly asked for clarification.

Even now, he still remembers the melodious voice that rang in his ears, a voice that was both cool and charming. Although it was fleeting, it was unforgettable.

"Those special spiritual energies do have some effect on me," the fairy in the green dress smiled.

"Are they just some effects?" Mu Zhian asked doubtfully.

If it wasn't a hallucination, the voice the fairy in the green dress made back then was quite soothing...

For someone like the fairy in the green dress, she wouldn't be able to make such a beautiful sound unless she was truly in unbearable comfort.

"You have too many questions." The fairy in the green dress smiled, her emerald eyes quietly watching Mu Zhi'an, but there seemed to be a hint of danger in her gaze.

Mu Zhian felt a chill run down his spine and said no more. Instead, he relaxed his mind and allowed the fairy in the green dress to return to his body.

Then, he flew away from the mountains and forests on his sword.

……

As Mu Zhian had predicted, news of Mu Zhian defeating Zhou Hao in one move spread throughout the restricted area in just one afternoon.

Originally, many people were hostile towards their young lady's lover. Even after hearing about Mu Zhian's fight with Zhou Hao, some of their peers were still unconvinced.

But overall, there are still some people who have come to accept Mu Zhi'an.

Being able to defeat Zhou Hao, at least in some sense, already qualifies one as a 'genius'.

Add to that the spirit dragon behind him... In terms of background alone, Mu Zhian is now considered qualified.

At this moment, in front of a pavilion, Ye Lingxuan was standing in front of the pavilion's corridor, looking down at the entire lush and verdant forbidden area.

The curse of the forbidden zone terrified cultivators from the outside world. In the past, many people ventured into the forbidden zone in search of the Reincarnation Water or various rare medicinal herbs, only to lose their lives. Over time, the forbidden zone gradually became a taboo place in the mouths of cultivators.

But those cultivators probably never imagined that people actually lived in the forbidden area, and in such a beautiful paradise at that.

The evening breeze ruffled Ye Lingxuan's hair. She gently brushed the strands of hair from her forehead and glanced at Wei Mengrou standing in the corner.

Even though she is a low-key person, the test results before the reincarnation pool determined that Wei Mengrou could not be low-key.

Moreover...

Ye Lingxuan glanced at Wei Mengrou's chest. With the evening breeze, the fabric of her beautiful yellow dress fluttered backward, clinging to her skin and outlining her sexy curves, making her chest appear even fuller and more perky.

After glancing at herself again, Ye Lingxuan sighed softly.

This young lady, who was revered as a goddess even within the forbidden zone and the Liangyi Sect, was somewhat heartbroken at this moment.

Aside from her, the girls Mu Zhian knows all seem to be quite grown up... even his younger sister Qian'er is already quite large.

To be fair, Ye Lingxuan isn't exactly young now, but compared to some of the girls I know, her story is definitely one of heartbreak.

"What's wrong?" Wei Mengrou quietly walked to her side without her noticing, and turned her head slightly to look at the girl with a quiet and elegant temperament beside her.

This maid usually appears cold and aloof, but she is actually quite good at observing other people's expressions and mindsets.

Ye Lingxuan quickly composed herself, gently shook her head, and smiled faintly, "It's nothing, I'm just a little worried about what's going on with Brother Mu."

This wasn't just a random excuse; Ye Lingxuan was genuinely worried about Mu Zhian.

Having defeated Zhou Hao today, those weaker than Zhou Hao will likely think twice before challenging Mu Zhian.

And the voices that previously questioned Ye Lingxuan's judgment will also disappear after this battle.

But what about those who are stronger than Zhou Hao?

Inside the restricted area, Ye Lingxuan wasn't worried about anyone hurting Mu Zhi'an, but she was concerned about whether his confidence would be affected if he were defeated...

"Do not worry."

As if knowing what Ye Lingxuan was thinking, Wei Mengrou said calmly, "If he's really not confident, he usually won't accept a challenge from someone."

After a pause, Wei Mengrou continued, "If you really want to help him, then accept the inheritance of the forbidden zone as soon as possible and become stronger."

Once Ye Lingxuan receives the inheritance from the forbidden zone, she will obtain the Heavenly Dao Qi within the forbidden zone. With the help of this inheritance, she will also be able to break through to the peak of Qi Refining and step into the Divine Refining Realm in one fell swoop.

Ye Lingxuan nodded solemnly.
