It turns out, they were the main characters.

However, Wei Mengrou had clearly recovered from her previous ambiguous and shy state. She glanced at him and said calmly, "There's a competition tomorrow, so get some rest."

After she finished speaking, she ignored Mu Zhian and quietly turned into a black shadow and disappeared from sight.

At this very moment, in a room deep within Tianhe Garden, the Empress of Yaochi Holy Land slowly opened her eyes. As always, she resembled an ethereal fairy in a green dress, cold and beautiful, like a snow lotus on an iceberg, pure and untouched.

She slightly turned her head and looked in the direction of the Great Qian Dynasty.

She ignored Gu Boxin's actions in the martial arts world last time because she wasn't present at the time and only learned about it later.

But this time...

Does that arrogant guy really think he's achieved the ultimate level of stealth?

……

Inside the palace.

The man in the Taoist robe suddenly opened his eyes, spat out a mouthful of blood, clutched his chest, and gasped for breath.

The old emperor was meditating in front of the soft couch when he opened his eyes, turned his head, and was shocked: "Grand Preceptor, what's wrong with you?!"

Gu Boxing raised his hand and waved it gently, a hint of apprehension in his eyes: "The things involved in the Body of Misfortune are far more numerous than you and I can imagine."

"However, this time it wasn't entirely fruitless. At least we learned that the yellow-skirted maid and the Primordial Witch have a close relationship."

This is enough to prove that his past deductions about the heavens were not wrong. Through the body of misfortune, he can find the path to the Dao Integration Realm!

Gu Boxing paused slightly before continuing, "Your Majesty, I am about to attempt to break through to the Enlightenment Realm... This time, I'll probably need to prepare some spirit stones..."

Upon hearing this, the old emperor couldn't help but frown slightly.

In recent years, the national treasury has been almost emptied in order to cultivate a powerful being at the Enlightenment Realm. If this continues, the people may well rise up in rebellion.

"If I can reach the Enlightenment Realm, His Majesty's dream of immortality can also be realized," Gu Boxing said quietly. "Having come this far, are we going to give up?"

"If I were to enter the path of enlightenment, I would have no fear even if I were to reach the Dao Integration Realm, based on the wishes of the people."

And if that happens, it wouldn't hurt to take away the Body of Misfortune as quickly as possible... Mu Zhian was lucky this time, and he brought the Body of Misfortune into the dream immediately.

What about next time?

The Emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty's eyes flickered slightly, and he finally made up his mind, about to nod in agreement.

"His Majesty!"

At this moment, a guard suddenly rushed into the Taoist temple from the main hall.

"What's all this panic, disturbing my cultivation?" The old emperor frowned slightly and turned to look at the guard.

The guard seemed to be calming himself down. After a long while, he lowered his head and said, "Someone from Yaochi has just arrived and has now entered the palace..."

"Who?" Gu Boxing suddenly looked up and asked.

For some reason, a bad feeling suddenly arose in his heart.

The guard looked up at him and whispered:

"Qing Emperor."

Night fell.

Mu Zhian woke up from his meditation and, after confirming that Wei Mengrou was not in the room, quietly got out of bed and walked towards Bai Ruoxi's room.

Outside, the air was filled with a rich, purified spiritual energy. Mu Zhian gently pushed open the door, and milky-white Heavenly Dao energy quietly floated in front of Bai Ruoxi, emitting a captivating halo.

But Mu Zhian's gaze lingered on the Heavenly Dao Qi for only a moment before falling on Bai Ruoxi.

She remained as aloof and delicate as ever, like a young lady who rarely ventured out of the house. If one didn't notice her voluptuous figure, one would probably mistake her for a delicate and noble young lady.

However, from the moment Mu Zhian stepped into the room, after only glancing at the Heavenly Dao Qi twice, his gaze involuntarily drifted to Bai Ruoxi's chest, which was barely concealed by her palace dress.

The power of Heaven is utterly ineffective in the face of such despicable breast size.

Seemingly sensing Mu Zhian's presence, the Heavenly Dao Qi in mid-air slowly dimmed, and then Bai Ruoxi slowly opened her eyes.

"Mu Lang, what brings you here?" She looked at Mu Zhi'an in surprise.

Logically speaking, this should be the time of the Ascension Ceremony, or in modern terms, the final exam. But instead of meditating and cultivating, Mu Zhi'an has come to his room late at night...

He walked to the edge of the bed, sat down, and said with a smile, "Aren't you welcoming me?"

Bai Ruoxi gently shook her head, a hint of shyness in her eyes as she looked at Mu Zhian, and said softly, "It's just that every time Mu Lang comes to see me, he's thinking about doing something naughty, so..."

As she spoke, she suddenly leaned close to Mu Zhian and gently sniffed him, a hint of doubt showing in her delicate features.

"It smells like rouge..." Bai Ruoxi murmured to herself.

Mu Zhian's eyelids twitched slightly, and he suddenly said, "Oh, right! I came to find you about the demonic energy."

As he spoke, he took out a bewitching purple flower from his storage ring.

A hint of doubt flickered in Bai Ruoxi's eyes as she softly asked, "This is...?"

"The purple hydrangea of ​​the demon realm, after being specially refined, can shield one's demonic aura as long as one wears it."

Mu Zhian handed the flower to Bai Ruoxi, gazed at her, and continued, "You will use it when you encounter the tribulation of lightning during your Spirit Refining and Returning to Emptiness cultivation. With it, no one in the sect will be able to detect the demonic energy in your cauldron."

Bai Ruoxi was initially puzzled, but after scanning the flower's structure with her spiritual sense, she looked up at Mu Zhian in surprise: "This is a magic weapon...? Where did you get it, Mu Lang?"

Mu Zhian had already prepared an excuse and smiled, "The first Demon Emperor was sealed in the Pilgrimage Hall. I went to that cave and happened to find this magic treasure in its storage ring."

"With it, you won't have to worry about demonic energy anymore, and you can focus on refining your spirit and returning to the void in the future," Mu Zhian continued.

Bai Ruoxi's eyes shone with emotion, and her gaze towards Mu Zhian softened.

"The shepherd is so good to me."

She hesitated slightly before continuing, "Mulang, if my other spiritual consciousness awakens in the future and does something too outrageous to you, will you hate me?"

Mu Zhian held her hand and said softly, "As long as it's Ruoxi, I don't care what she does to me."

He knew Bai Ruoxi's love, and with that love, she couldn't possibly do anything too outrageous.

Whether it's Bai Ruoxi or Hei Ruoxi, there won't be too much of a problem.

He knew Bai Ruoxi's personality inside and out, and he had confirmed her true feelings with his own hands countless times in the past.

Bai Ruoxi smiled sweetly: "I'm relieved to hear that, Mu Lang."

The Sword Palace is currently suspended in the Eastern Continent, like a floating city. If Gong Lian Yue really does something to Mu Lang after she awakens in the future... then it will be Gong Lian Yue who did it.

Miss Bai is just a kind girl with no bad intentions who knows how to care for Mu Lang.

After spending some time being intimate with Bai Ruoxi in the room, Mu Zhian spoke up at the opportune moment and left the room.

He didn't plan to tell Bai Ruoxi about the Taixu Pill for the time being. After all, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. If he could really collect the medicinal materials later and get the Empress of Yuzhou to refine the pill, then it wouldn't be too late to tell her.

Although this is extremely difficult, even the Queen of the Demon Realm doesn't have much hope.

After all, no one wants to have another being who is on equal footing with them, or even stronger, for no reason.

Gong Lianyue was already at the Dao Integration Realm, and her swordsmanship was unparalleled in the Nine Provinces. A being like the Nine-Tailed Fox would inevitably be able to advance to the Dao Integration Realm in the future... The combination of these two physiques was not the result that a Dao Integration Realm expert would want to see.

After returning to his room, Mu Zhian took out the storage ring of the first Demon Emperor and was about to begin studying the Heavenly Phoenix Technique.

Just then, I noticed a paper crane perched on the edge of the table.

Was it a paper crane from Senior Sister? Or from Sect Leader Sister?

Mu Zhian's eyes flickered slightly as he unfolded the paper crane and took a look.

"My junior brother's performance today was decent. I hope to see you in the finals of the Ascension Tournament."

Mu Zhian pondered for a moment, then ground his inkstone and began to write: "To be honest, today's victory was a bit risky, and I'm starting to lose confidence. I think for my senior sister, the Ascension Ceremony is just a game, but I'm only at the fourth level of the Refining Spirit Realm, and I'm afraid..."

He paused, then continued writing: "Speaking of which, I've heard that when faced with adversity, if there's a source of motivation, one can unleash a force beyond their own capabilities..."

That should be enough of the hints. I hope Xiao Lian won't be ungrateful... Mu Zhi'an fully demonstrated what it means to be submissive offline but fiercely aggressive online.

She greets everyone warmly as "Hello, Senior Sister," but privately calls her "Little Lian" all the time.

He folded the paper crane and threw it out the window, then took out the storage ring left behind by the first Demon Emperor.

After calming himself down slightly, Mu Zhian closed his eyes and slowly recalled the cultivation method of the Heavenly Phoenix Technique and its introductory description.

This technique can ignite the cauldron when the spiritual energy is exhausted, allowing the spiritual energy to instantly replenish the cauldron.

While quietly comprehending the cultivation methods of the Heavenly Phoenix Technique, Mu Zhi'an suddenly caught a rather perceptible word. He slowly opened his eyes and looked at the storage ring in his hand with surprise.

"...The Heavenly Court?"

According to the description of this technique, the Heavenly Phoenix Technique was left over from the Heavenly Court.

However, there is a certain similarity between the Heavenly Court and the Immortal Realm... Mu Zhian examined the storage ring in his hand and fell into deep thought.

According to legend, when a cultivator reaches the pinnacle of their cultivation, they can ascend to immortality and transcend the mortal realm.

However, this legend has always been considered a lie by the monks.

Because a powerful being in the Dao Integration Realm has merged with the Great Dao, making them the strongest being in the world and the limit for cultivators.

Even those powerful beings at the Dao Integration Realm have never seen anyone ascend to the Immortal Realm.

It's not that they can't ascend, but that the Immortal Realm simply doesn't exist.

But if that's the case, then what exactly is this 'Heavenly Court'?

The first Demon Emperor was a powerful and ruthless figure, and the cultivation technique he practiced actually originated from the Heavenly Court...?

Mu Zhian gripped the storage ring slightly, then got up and left the room.

He had never heard of a place called Heaven in ancient books, but Yao Mengcheng had experienced many things in the past, so perhaps she would know about it.

……

dong dong.

Mu Zhian knocked on the door.

"Fairy Sister?"

There was no response. Normally, the door would have been open by now.

"Yao Meng?"
