Chapter 477: The Immortal Path's Will and the Aversion to Yang Shuai? Going to Receive Jin Li

The Great Supreme Enlightenment of the Ultimate Principle Council bowed respectfully to Qi Yuan, continuing his speech.

"Fellow Daoist, if you are to make an enemy of Taohuang Palace, you must be cautious. Their strength is not to be underestimated."

As he spoke, he took out a jade slip and handed it to Qi Yuan.

"If you encounter a crisis, Fellow Daoist, you can crush this jade slip. We, the Ultimate Principle Council, will secretly intervene once to aid you."

Although the Human Emperor Palace envoy was unwilling to cooperate with the Ultimate Principle Council, there was a saying that went, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend."

By aiding those who opposed their enemy, and causing some trouble for them, the Ultimate Principle Council would be pleased.

Qi Yuan looked at the jade slip, his eyes gleaming with curiosity. "The Supreme Venerable?"

He could sense the aura of the Supreme Venerable.

The Great Supreme Enlightenment straightened his back and said, "This jade slip was crafted by the Second Council Master."

The Second Council Master of the Ultimate Principle Council was indeed a Supreme Venerable.

"With such a valuable item from you, should I return the favor?" Qi Yuan stroked his chin and then said, "Today, you've gained a lot. I have an offer for you. I have a mark here that you might want. If you place it within your divine soul, it can guarantee that after you die, you will be able to revive as a wraith within my Purple Mansion."

Qi Yuan was not one to take advantage of others.

Upon hearing this, the Great Supreme Enlightenment was taken aback.

A mark?

Placed within the divine soul?

How could this be? At their level, allowing others to place a mark within their divine soul was akin to seeking death.

Who knew if there might be some hidden agenda?

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist, but I'll pass on this," the Great Supreme Enlightenment quickly declined.

As for Qi Yuan's suggestion about revival in the Purple Mansion, he treated it as a joke.

If the Yangshen Venerable truly perished, they would leave nothing behind, so how could they be revived?

Even without the need for the mark, the Yangshen Venerable could revive on their own.

Qi Yuan heard this and felt a bit disappointed. "Are you sure? With this, you could almost walk sideways in the Sixth Heaven. As long as I'm alive, you'll be fine."

After all, taking advantage of others was something he found difficult to do.

The Great Supreme Enlightenment smiled awkwardly and then shook his head. "No need."

"Alright, if you don't want it, then forget it. Don't say I owe you anything in the future, Ultimate Principle Council," Qi Yuan said.

The Great Supreme Enlightenment gave an embarrassed smile, feeling that the Human Emperor Palace envoy before him seemed a bit odd, almost as if something was amiss.

After saying a few more words and bowing in farewell, he disappeared from sight.

Only Qi Yuan and the White Dragon Abyss Lord remained on the field.

Qi Yuan glanced at the woman beside him and said, "With a lone man and woman here, it might not be appropriate."

The implication was clear: now that the Great Supreme Enlightenment had left, perhaps it was time for her to leave as well.

The White Dragon Abyss Lord's body stiffened, and her voice, deep and robust, asked, "Are you not a woman?"

"Hey, White Dragon Abyss Lord, are you still pretending to be a man?" Qi Yuan, seeing that the White Dragon Abyss Lord was still trying to disguise herself, decided to expose her, "Don't think that just because you changed your clothes I won't recognize you. Even if you change into other outfits, or even if you don't wear anything, I can still identify you at a glance!"

The White Dragon Abyss Lord's smile froze on her face. She hadn't expected the Human Emperor Palace envoy to see through her disguise.

"How did you recognize me?" she asked, perplexed.

Even if the Supreme Venerable didn't display their grand spiritual power to pierce through her disguise, they wouldn't be able to identify her.

And if they did pierce through her disguise, she would sense it and resist.

"You recognized me with just your eyes?" The White Dragon Abyss Lord was speechless, staring at Qi Yuan. "Have we met before?"

"You could say that," Qi Yuan replied without hiding the truth. "Let's cut to the chase. If you have something to say, speak frankly."

In this battle, he had gained a lot, and he still needed some time to fully integrate the Ten Thousand Ghost Soul Banner into the Emperor Soul Banner.

"Fellow Daoist... are you from outside the Immortal Cultivation World?" The White Dragon Abyss Lord blinked her eyes, curious about the identity of the Human Emperor Palace envoy.

"You could say that," Qi Yuan replied truthfully.

His home was on the planet Blue Star.

"So it is," the White Dragon Abyss Lord took a deep breath. "It seems you are not the Great Supreme Enlightenment of the Immortal Cultivation World, as you haven't merged with the Immortal Path's will to form the Great Supreme Enlightenment Seal."

"Without the Great Supreme Enlightenment Seal, Fellow Daoist, if you encounter a Supreme Venerable, even with an offensive Creation Artifact, your death is certain."

Although the Supreme Venerable and the Banner Master were only one level apart, the Supreme Venerable was truly terrifying...

Without the Great Supreme Enlightenment Seal, the Immortal Path's will maintained balance, and against a Supreme Venerable, one wouldn't last a breath.

The White Dragon Abyss Lord's meaning was clear: without the Great Supreme Enlightenment Seal, even with an offensive Creation Artifact, facing the one from Taohuang Palace, the outcome was uncertain.

Qi Yuan's eyes remained calm as he listened, deep in thought.

Recently, he had also learned about the existence of the Great Supreme Enlightenment Seal.

Precisely because of this seal, he didn't use the Emperor Soul Banner, and even ordinary Great Supreme Enlightenments couldn't harm him.

Of course, if he stood still, ordinary Great Supreme Enlightenments could indeed hurt him.

This was indeed a problem.

"I have a secret technique here that can allow outsiders to comprehend the fusion of the Supreme Enlightenment and the Immortal Path's will, forming the Great Supreme Enlightenment Seal," the White Dragon Abyss Lord said, taking out a jade slip and handing it to Qi Yuan.

"Is that so?" Qi Yuan scanned the jade slip and understood. "Since you've helped me, I should return the favor. Do you want me to place a mark within your divine soul?"

The White Dragon Abyss Lord paused slightly, not responding.

Qi Yuan, seeing his own words as abrupt and lacking in emotional intelligence, reassured, "Rest assured, I won't peek at you while you bathe with this mark."

Even if I accidentally see you bathing, I won't mind your big butt."

The White Dragon Abyss Lord paused, took a deep breath, and said, "If you let me take a look, I'd be willing to let you keep that mark in my divine soul."

"No way!" Qi Yuan quickly declined.

He certainly didn't want to get pregnant.

...

Within the Demon Gate.

Qi Yuan furrowed his brows.

After bidding farewell to the White Dragon Abyss Lord, he first went to the Heaven Earth Mystic Land, fully integrating the Ten Thousand Ghost Soul Banner into the Emperor Soul Banner, enhancing his strength.

Later, he returned to his cave abode within the Demon Gate and began to study the secret technique left by the White Dragon Abyss Lord.

He didn't realize the depth of the technique until he delved into it and was startled.

"Has the Immortal Dao's will developed an aversion to Feng Shuai? Why is it so resistant to me?" Qi Yuan pondered.

He felt that the Immortal Dao's will was seriously ill.

"Could it be that I've offended it by casually leaving my seed?"

In Qi Yuan's contemplation, the Immortal Dao's will was in a daze, barely conscious, acting solely on instinct.

In a sense, it was a larger version of the Heavenly Dao.

"So, you're not going to imprint it?" Qi Yuan hesitated.

After obtaining the secret technique, he also tried to merge with it directly, but what if he signed a contract with the Immortal Dao's will, something like a marriage? That wouldn't be good.

What if he left the Immortal Cultivation World and divorced the Immortal Dao's will, and it took half of his cultivation?

Qi Yuan realized this was just his one-sided wish.

The Immortal Dao's will didn't want to marry him; it didn't even want to go on a blind date with Qi Yuan, let alone add him on WeChat.

So Qi Yuan concluded that the Immortal Dao's will had an aversion to Feng Shuai.

"At least I have the Super Grand Plan," Qi Yuan thought.

Just then, outside the cave abode, a sound suddenly echoed.

"Blood Robe Senior Apprentice...are you there?"

The voice was sweet, with a hint of joy.

"Xiaolulu, what's up?" Qi Yuan stepped out, looking serene.

Upon seeing Qi Yuan, Zi Yuan Xiaolu clenched her clothes tightly, relieved, "I thought Blood Robe Senior Apprentice...had encountered some danger."

The Guiyuetian was hunting down the Emperor Palace Envoy.

Even the Heaven Earth Mystic Land was involved, making Zi Yuan Xiaolu very nervous.

"Don't worry, what danger could I possibly encounter?" Qi Yuan said nonchalantly.

She blinked at Qi Yuan, deep in thought.

Her heart was filled with questions and confusion, but in the end, she didn't ask any of them.

Since Blood Robe Senior Apprentice didn't want to talk, it must be a secret.

Although she was tight-lipped, she was still only a Yin Immortal. If she knew some of Blood Robe Senior Apprentice's secrets and was caught by the Yangshen Venerable for soul-searching, Blood Robe Senior Apprentice's cultivation would be halved.

"Blood Robe Senior Apprentice, I'm glad you're safe," Zi Yuan Xiaolu said, "This is the Ancestor Blood Spirit Water I recently collected."

"Not bad, work hard, and Senior Apprentice will take care of your meals!" Qi Yuan happily took the Ancestor Blood Spirit Water.

For him, the progress of the Ancestral Blood Art still needed the Black Demon Ancestor's blood to advance.

His Ancestral Blood Art had been stuck on the thirteenth layer for a long time, a full one or two months!

"Thank you, Senior Apprentice," Zi Yuan Xiaolu's heart was filled with joy. After bidding farewell to Qi Yuan, she left, jogging away.

Meanwhile, within the Demon Gate, the young geniuses were all discussing, their faces filled with joy.

As the saying goes, good news doesn't go out, but bad news travels fast.

The news of the Emperor Palace Envoy's sweep and seizure of the Ten Thousand Ghost Soul Banner from the Banner Master had already spread throughout the Six Heavens.

This shocked the geniuses of the Demon Gate.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

After all, the Emperor Palace Envoy was a formidable figure who single-handedly suppressed the Guiyuetian.

Currently, the Guiyuetian was severely weakened, and the cultivators at the Ghost Gate were slowly retreating, pulling back to their headquarters to mount a defense.

These geniuses of the Demon Gate were thinking about when they could launch an attack on the Ghost Gate to gain some achievements.

This might be their last chance.

But what they didn't know was that they were running out of time.

The seven ancestors of the Black Demon Abyss, the Yangshen Venerable, had finally concluded their meeting.

The Abyss Lord delivered a crucial message.

At this moment, Zi Yuan Ancestor's figure descended, appearing in Qi Yuan's cave abode.

"Kid, let's go to the Moon Goddess Palace and bring your Dao companion over."

Qi Yuan, who had been cultivating, was slightly startled, "Old man, why the rush?"

Zi Yuan Ancestor's expression turned solemn, "The Abyss Lord just announced that our Black Demon Abyss...is sealing the abyss!"

Sealing the abyss meant sealing the mountain; all cultivators would stay indoors.

In a sense, the Black Demon Abyss was withdrawing from the Lin Ya Transformation?

"How can that be?" Qi Yuan was astonished.

Didn't that mean that other forces could do the same if they wanted to?

"There's too much misunderstanding here," Zi Yuan Ancestor conveyed some information to Qi Yuan.

Hearing this, Qi Yuan commented, "It's less of a sealing and more like...becoming the servants of the Taohuang Palace."

The Black Demon Abyss was sealing itself off, turning a blind eye to the world.

But they still had to dispatch a few Supreme Ultimate Principles to support the Taohuang Palace.

"So, we must bring your Dao companion over now, or you won't have time to go out later," Zi Yuan Ancestor said worriedly.

"Old man, don't keep frowning; I'll protect you from now on.

Qi Yuan spoke casually.

"Hmph, just because you're protecting me, do you think you've comprehended the Supreme Ultimate Principle and are now the Emperor Palace Envoy?" Ziyuan Zu replied, exasperated.

Qi Yuan shrugged, ignoring the comment.

...

Moon Goddess Palace.

The moonlight shone like a molten river, cascading down in all directions, enveloping the world in tranquility.

Amidst the serenity, a hint of dark clouds lingered.

Yue Shuang, gazing at Jingli as she meticulously adorned herself, had an unreadable expression, "Although the Dark Demon Abyss is also a place of contention, compared to the Moon Goddess Palace...it's still much better. Going there is still better than staying here."

Ever since the news of the Lin Ya Transformation hosted by Taohuang Palace spread, the atmosphere in the Moon Goddess Palace suddenly froze.

Numerous external disciples and cultivators associated with the Moon Goddess Palace began distancing themselves from the palace.

Even Yangshen Venerable was filled with worry, secretly contacting others behind the scenes to find a backup plan.

The image in the bronze mirror exuded an ancient, yellowed, and faded charm, akin to an old photograph, emitting an indescribable artistic aura.

Jingli's face, as white as snow, was adorned with several white pearl grains, enhancing her elegance.

She meticulously adorned herself.

Yue Shuang, sitting on the windowsill, stretched her legs and continued, "To be honest, I'm curious how your man convinced Moon Radiance Venerable to agree to your union with her as the Moon Maiden?"

Yue Shuang was genuinely curious.

Such a thing had almost never happened before.

In the past, when Yangshen Venerable came to the Moon Goddess Palace to seek the Moon Maiden, he was promptly turned away by Moon Goddess.

One could say it was quite impolite.

"Perhaps...he is exceptionally outstanding," Jingli replied with the tranquility of a chrysanthemum and the coolness of an immortal.

But only Qi Yuan knew how passionate she became when he tore her clothes off.

"Being outstanding alone isn't enough. Could it be..." Yue Shuang thought of something but didn't say it.

After all, it wouldn't be polite to speak of it.

The only reason she could think of was a mutual exchange of benefits.

Their union represented an alliance between two major forces.

But...did the Dark Demon Abyss not have such intentions? This was difficult to comprehend.

Just then, suddenly, a vast voice echoed throughout the Moon Goddess Palace.

"Ziyuan Heaven's Ziyuan Ancestor, clad in a Blood Robe, wishes to form a virtuous bond with the Moon Goddess Palace."

As the words fell, countless radiant lights showered down within the Moon Goddess Palace.

They resembled falling fairies and immortal mists.

The entire Moon Goddess Palace instantly bloomed like a garden, brightening up.

At that moment, countless spiritual stones and immortal jades descended from the sky, akin to dumplings raining down.

Countless ordinary cultivators from the Moon Goddess Palace, witnessing this scene, widened their eyes, their faces filled with joyous ecstasy.

They flew forward, eager to catch the spiritual stones and immortal jades.

Inside the boudoir, Jingli's heart skipped a beat.

At that moment, Qi Yuan, witnessing the ethereal scene, couldn't help but transmit his voice, "Old man, this special effect is quite expensive."

"Hmph, I have to maintain your reputation. What if it's too pathetic?"

"But, with spiritual stones falling from the sky and immortal jades raining down, isn't it a bit too common?" Qi Yuan couldn't help but ask.

The falling spiritual stones and immortal jades made him seem like a nouveau riche.

"What's wrong with it if the cultivators of the Moon Goddess Palace are happy to see it?"

"I'm starting to believe that Ziyuan Daxue is your descendant." Qi Yuan fell silent.

Just then, a gentle voice resounded within the Moon Goddess Palace, "Welcome, esteemed guest, please come in!"

The speaker was none other than Moon Radiance Venerable.

She was one of the two Great Supreme Enlightenments of the Moon Goddess Palace.

Moments later, Qi Yuan followed Ziyuan Ancestor into the Moon Goddess Shrine within the Moon Goddess Palace.

The Moon Goddess Shrine seemed to be nestled within the Moon Palace. Upon entering, Qi Yuan felt a faint chill and caught a whiff of a subtle cinnamon fragrance.

Moon Radiance Venerable sat in the main seat, flanked by eighteen Principle Deities on the side seats.

Qi Yuan immediately spotted Jingli, the Moon Maiden.

Those scissor-like eyes also glanced at him before quickly lowering her head.

At that moment, the eighteen Principle Deities all looked at Qi Yuan, their eyes filled with curiosity and a hint of confusion.

Qi Yuan's identity wasn't entirely clear to these deities.

They also didn't understand why Moon Radiance Venerable would allow Jingli to become Qi Yuan's Daoist companion as the Moon Maiden.

"Your intentions are known to this venerable. This time...I've waited for it," Moon Radiance Venerable said, her gaze soft and especially gentle as she looked at Qi Yuan.

Upon hearing these words, the Principle Deities' expressions changed slightly, confused. Some of them fell into deep thought, pondering something.

"Usually, when our Moon Goddess Palace's daughters marry, it's always a grand occasion. But today..." Moon Radiance Venerable's eyes carried a hint of hidden worry, "...the Lin Ya Transformation might begin at any time. Everything is uncertain. Blood Robe, Moon Maiden Jingli...I entrust her to you. I hope you'll treat her well.

If she's wronged, our Moon Goddess Palace will find you and have a proper discussion!"

Qi Yuan cupped his fists in greeting, "Senior, rest assured. I'll treat Jingli with a sincere heart like the moon."

At this moment, Qi Yuan appeared calm, but his mind was filled with many thoughts.

He and Jingli's relationship began with the Linglong Jade Seal and the Moon Gazing Continent.

He finally kept his promise and met her.

"This time, when Jingli goes to Ziyuan Heaven, I'll escort her there to prevent any prevent any troublemakers from causing issues!" Moon Radiance Venerable said, her sleeves fluttering as she exuded the aura of the Great Supreme Enlightenment.
