It turns out, they were the main characters.

Mu Zhian realized it almost immediately.

...This ring of the first Demon Emperor is indeed strange!

Chapter 314 The Heavenly Dao is actually a loli?! 3K

This ring is not simply meant for future generations to use in their cultivation; rather, it holds some secret.

No wonder the first Demon Emperor never destroyed it, and even carried it with him all the time.

At that moment, Mu Zhian suddenly realized.

It wasn't that the first Demon Emperor valued the Heavenly Phoenix Technique, but rather that he valued the potential value hidden behind this ring.

If it weren't for Lan Mulian, he probably wouldn't have discovered the secret of this ring by now.

The ground was shaking violently. Mu Zhian narrowed his eyes, slowly reached out his hand, and gently touched the Demon Emperor's ring.

The next instant, everything in front of him collapsed completely, and what appeared in his field of vision was no longer the villa he had just seen, but a white, boundless world.

This world is the same world he sees every time he cultivates the Heavenly Phoenix Technique!

Mu Zhian glanced around once and immediately came to his answer.

"Could this be a dream...?" Mu Zhian looked around, his eyes filled with surprise and uncertainty.

Lan Mulian looked up at the unfamiliar world before her and said softly, "I once heard a rumor that there is a place above the Nine Provinces that does not even belong to any part of the Nine Provinces. It is a void world where even mortals can become immortals and live forever if they step into it."

"The world here is somewhat similar to the rumors I've heard in the past."

Mu Zhian's eyes flickered slightly, and he said softly, "The Heavenly Court?"

He had heard of the Heavenly Court more than once, but he never imagined that the world he saw every time he cultivated the Heavenly Phoenix Technique was actually the Heavenly Court!

But why are my senior sister and I in a place like this now...?

“The ring in your hand is probably the key to the Heavenly Court, or perhaps one of the mediums. After I analyze its structure and unlock the secret technique used by the first Demon Emperor to shield this ring, our spiritual senses will be able to enter the Heavenly Court.” Lan Mulian’s gaze remained clear and calm as she surveyed the vast white world around her.

The name "Heavenly Court" might be unfamiliar to people from the Nine Provinces.

However, if you mention the Immortal Realm, almost every cultivator has heard of it.

Those who ascend to the Immortal Realm possess an immortal and indestructible spirit. It is a paradise for cultivators, but also the end of the path they walk.

A cultivator dedicates their entire life to cultivation, ascending the Heavenly Path, and at the end of the Heavenly Path lies the Heavenly Court.

Mu Zhian felt the spiritual energy, which was completely different from that of Kyushu, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled.

I never expected the rumors to be true.

The Heavenly Court is real; however, countless cultivators spend their entire lives searching for its location but never find it, because it exists in a void world and requires a medium within the Heavenly Court to reach it.

The ring in the hands of the first Demon Emperor was the medium to reach the Heavenly Court!

The first Demon Emperor did not want to destroy the ring because he wanted to set foot in the Heavenly Court, which is why he kept the ring all this time.

However, the first Demon Emperor did not expect that his trip to the Eastern Continent would result in his suppression by the Azure Emperor, and he would never have the chance to set foot in the Heavenly Court again...

"The spiritual energy is so rich... This spiritual energy is even richer than that of the Nine Provinces after the rules of heaven and earth were rewritten." Lan Mulian murmured to herself, her eyes also filled with surprise.

Mu Zhian closed his eyes slightly and tried to operate the cauldron to absorb the spiritual energy from the immortal realm.

He was soon pleasantly surprised to discover that the spiritual energy of the immortal realm could be directly absorbed into his own use after only a little purification, and this spiritual energy was several times more concentrated than that of the Nine Provinces!

One day of meditation and cultivation here is probably equivalent to four or five days outside.

"The Heavenly Court is truly a wonderful place..." Mu Zhian exclaimed sincerely.

Lan Mulian nodded silently at first, and then gently shook her head.

"It's a pity that the Heavenly Court rejected us. Even though we are here, we still cannot absorb the spiritual energy."

She had just tried it, but found that the spiritual energy in the Heavenly Court could not be absorbed by cultivators at all.

It wasn't her fault, but rather that the Heavenly Court was shrouded in a mysterious force, rejecting all visitors from the outside world.

Mu Zhian subconsciously looked at Lan Mulian's beautiful and delicate face.

Her ethereal气质 (qi zhi, a kind of refined elegance) matched the aloofness of the Heavenly Court, making her appear like a fairy. However, the words she uttered caused Mu Zhian to pause in surprise.

"The spiritual energy here cannot be absorbed by cultivators... Did Senior Sister just try it?" Mu Zhi'an asked.

Lan Mulian turned her head to look at her, her clear eyes bright, and nodded slightly: "This Heavenly Court is governed by rules set by an invisible force. Outsiders must conform to these rules to enter the Heavenly Court and absorb spiritual energy."

"You and I are now outside the Heavenly Court."

The Heavenly Mandate Holy Body can see through the origin of all things, including the Heavenly Court. However, Lan Mulian can only see through the surface of the Heavenly Court and cannot know what the rules set by the Heavenly Court are.

But as soon as she finished speaking, she saw a look of surprise in Mu Zhian's eyes, as if he had heard something strange, and his face was full of astonishment.

"What's wrong?" Lan Mulian asked.

Mu Zhian snapped out of his daze, looked around at his surroundings with a strange expression, and gently shook his head: "...It's nothing."

The Heavenly Court has established a rule that any cultivator who enters this place will be unable to absorb the spiritual energy here, let alone set foot inside the Heavenly Court.

However... he had just absorbed the spiritual energy from the Heavenly Court.

Is there a bug...?

The entire Heavenly Court was quiet, without a sound. Lan Mulian looked at everything before her, but remained calm and said, "Let's leave this place first."

If an ordinary cultivator were to step into the Heavenly Court, even just at the entrance, they probably wouldn't want to leave.

After all, being in the Heavenly Court means immortality, and even if one cannot set foot in the Heavenly Court, it is good to just be outside of it.

Most cultivators, even if they dedicate their entire lives, will not be able to achieve immortality.

However, Lan Mulian's Dao heart never wavered. For her, as long as she had ten years, she could achieve Dao without the Heavenly Court.

Lan Mulian opened her palm and handed the Demon Emperor's ring to Mu Zhian.

"After you put it on, infuse it with your spiritual energy, and you can leave this place," Lan Mulian said.

This ring had this effect from the very beginning; it's just that the true way to use the ring was hidden by the First Demon Emperor before Lan Mulian could glimpse its origin.

However, the first Demon Emperor was already very weak at that time, so the shielding technique he applied to the ring was also crude.

Lan Mulian raised her hand and infused a wisp of spiritual energy into the ring in Mu Zhian's hand. The next moment, her voice seemed to gradually become ethereal and dreamlike.

She looked at Mu Zhian, who seemed to be deep in thought and was clearly distracted, and said, "I'll wait for you outside."

Mu Zhian watched Lan Mulian's departing figure and heard her clear and melodious voice before he came back to his senses.

He took one last look at everything before him, and then, with a hint of doubt, started the furnace again.

The spiritual energy in the Heavenly Court seemed to have an innate affinity for him, quietly seeping into Mu Zhi'an's cauldron.

The spiritual energy here can indeed be absorbed... Mu Zhian was secretly shocked.

My senior sister said that only those who meet the rules can absorb the spiritual energy in the Heavenly Court, and ordinary cultivators cannot absorb it... But why can I?

Could it be that I unintentionally did something that just happened to comply with the rules of Heaven?

The problem is, I haven't done anything. Could it be that the former master of Heaven was also a pervert? Perverts attract each other, so the other person accepted me?

Mu Zhian quickly gathered his thoughts, slowly shook his head, and stopped thinking about it.

In short, once we know how to enter the Heavenly Court, we can investigate this matter slowly after leaving this place.

Thinking of this, Mu Zhian was about to infuse the ring with spiritual energy when he turned to leave.

However, just as Mu Zhian was about to turn around, a strange cold wind suddenly blew past behind him. The wind made his body stiffen involuntarily, and he felt a deep chill rising from his back, making his heart go cold.

Immediately afterwards, he vaguely seemed to hear a sound.

Footsteps.

The entire Heavenly Court was so quiet that there wasn't a sound; he could even hear his own breathing. Yet, in this very quiet environment, he actually heard footsteps!

The footsteps were so light that they could be easily missed if one wasn't paying attention.

But as Mu Zhian held his breath, he clearly heard the footsteps!

Residents of Heaven?

Or perhaps the master of Heaven knew that someone from the outside world had entered, so he came out to check...?

Mu Zhian was filled with doubt and suspicion, and his hand subconsciously went to the Demon Emperor's ring.

He was considering whether to directly inject spiritual energy and leave this place.

But in the end, his curiosity overcame the fear deep in his heart, and he slowly raised his head to look at the ancient gate shrouded in white mist.

An extremely dazzling light shone down on his face from the depths of the gate. Mu Zhian narrowed his eyes and vaguely saw a figure walking towards him from the end of the Heavenly Court gate.

Slender and petite, with medium-length hair and bright, clear eyes, she seemed to be a...loli!

Could there already be quite a few people living in this Heavenly Court, and this little girl just wandered out by mistake...?

Mu Zhian looked at the silver-haired little girl in front of him with a somewhat surprised and suspicious gaze, and asked doubtfully, "Who are you?"

The silver-haired loli tilted her head slightly, looking at Mu Zhian with a strange expression, her big eyes full of doubt.

Then, she opened her arms and said in a clear voice, "Hold me."

"Are you from the Heavenly Court? Do your parents also live in the Heavenly Court?" Mu Zhian asked again.

However, the silver-haired loli did not answer. Instead, she came up to Mu Zhian, raised her head and looked at him expectantly, and called out in a clear voice, "Hug me."

I feel like I can't communicate with this little girl, which is why I like mature women... Mu Zhian had no choice but to bend down and pick her up.

He then looked at the unfamiliar, adorable little girl and was about to speak.

However, at that moment, her clear and pleasant voice rang softly in my ear first:

“In Kyushu, you all call me the Heavenly Way.”

Mu Zhian almost let go of the little girl's arms.

"You...you are the Heavenly Dao?"

Mu Zhian stared incredulously at the petite little girl in front of him, and at her beautiful red eyes, a look of disbelief creeping into his own eyes.
