"Ziyun Palace is hidden deep in the sea eye at the bottom of the South China Sea. If sealed with immortal magic, it is completely isolated from the outside world, making it almost impossible for outsiders to even see it, let alone enter," Xu Feiniang and Yue Qing explained as they walked. "There are three palace mistresses in the palace, named Chufeng, Erfeng, and Sanfeng, who are triplets born to the same mother. There are also three others: the first is named Huizhu, who was a pearl oyster in her previous life. The three women were able to enter the palace thanks to her rescue, and she has now been reborn. The second is Jinxunv, a mermaid who recognized Chufeng as her benefactor. She transformed into a handsome young man by using the Tianyi True Water in the palace, and she has the highest cultivation among them. These five have all cultivated to the peak of the Immortal stage. In another dozen years, the five-hundred-year great tribulation will come, and whether they can pass it is unknown."
"Speaking of which, Sister, you have also cultivated to the Earth Immortal stage in these thirty years. I wonder how your tribulation went?"
Xu Feiniang laughed, "I listened to his advice and focused solely on the Taiyi True Interpretation. I only briefly studied the Ten Demon Scriptures because I wanted to avenge myself. In recent years, I have not thought about ascending, but instead have been systematically cultivating the Heavenly Demon Slayer Sword. I have also widely cultivated good karma, and before the tribulation, I killed an evil dragon in the Yellow River to stop a flood, accumulating much good merit. Therefore, when I conceived my yuan ying, there was only a slight demonic tribulation. I was extremely cautious and sealed myself in a closed retreat half a year in advance, so there were no major obstacles. Younger Brother, now that you have the Tongxuan True Scripture, you will cultivate a second yuan shen and寄托虚空, merging with the universe. As long as you do not commit evil, you will almost never face any tribulations. Moreover, the Hunyuan Yuan Ying you will form will be ten times stronger than my Taiyi Yuan Ying!"
"If it really is as Sister says, that would be great, but who can truly predict the future?"
The two flew swiftly over the vast sea, their green and silver light merging into a single beam, covering a thousand miles in an instant. "Let's continue talking about Ziyun Palace. Besides the five people I mentioned, there is also Shao Dongxiu, who was a servant to the three women in the mortal world. By chance, she entered the palace to cultivate. She has the lowest cultivation in the palace but is the most perceptive, clinging tightly to Sanfeng, advancing and retreating together. These two have narrow minds. If someone is stronger than them, for example, if they have a good flying sword, they will be extremely jealous. If someone is weaker than them, they will be arrogant and indifferent."
Yue Qing laughed, "Sister, dealing with such people for nearly a hundred years must have been quite a bitter experience."
Xu Feiniang also laughed, "I just want to avenge him. In recent years, I have traveled all over the nine provinces and four seas, and I have cultivated and befriended anyone with some ability, inciting them to cause trouble for Emei. This time, when we go to Ziyun Palace, we must achieve complete success, and we need to work on these two. By the way, most of the younger disciples in the palace are familiar with me. There is a young man named Wu Fan who is the greediest and especially fond of seduction magic. He might be useful."
The two continued talking, and the Yingxian Island was already in sight ahead. Yue Qing said, "Let's follow the plan we discussed. We'll see how things go after we get to know everyone in the palace."
Xu Feiniang led the way, landing on the island, with Yue Qing following closely behind. She introduced him, "This is Yingxian Island. From here to the Ziyun Palace at the bottom of the sea, there is a water route of over a thousand miles, connected by a tunnel built with divine sand by the six palace mistresses."
Yue Qing marveled, "An overseas immortal residence, indeed different from those in Central China. Although it is not among the thirty-six grotto-heavens or the seventy-two blessed lands, it has its own unique charm."
On Yingxian Island, there is an Yanguang Pavilion located at the exit of the divine sand tunnel. A handsome young man, dressed in a luxurious blue immortal robe, wearing a crystal crown, green jade bracelets, and a crystal pendant, greeted them with a radiant smile, "Xu Fairy! Why haven't you visited us for half a year? I've missed you so much!"
"You impudent monkey!" Xu Feiniang laughed and playfully tapped the young man's head, "If your master misses me, that's fine, but for you to say such things, if I hear any gossip outside, I'll flay your monkey skin! Come, Auntie will introduce you. This is my fellow disciple, you should call him Master."
She then turned to Yue Qing, "Younger Brother, this is Dongxiu's disciple, Wu Fan, who is also very ambitious."
Yue Qing smiled and examined Wu Fan from head to toe, "Not bad, not bad. Your root and bone are both of the highest quality, truly a celestial root and Dao bone. At your age, I didn't have such high Dao power. Truly, the young are to be feared."
Wu Fan, seizing the opportunity, knelt down and kowtowed to Yue Qing, "May Master Yue live forever!"
Yue Qing did not disappoint him, taking out the Cold Flame Soul Chasing Sand he had collected after killing Ni Lanxin, "It's your first time here, and you are so understanding, I like you. Here, take this little trinket to play with."
Wu Fan immediately beamed with joy, holding the treasure in both hands, admiring it endlessly. Ni Lanxin, known as the Soul Chasing Lady, would seduce anyone she fancied, whether they were strong or handsome, immortal or mortal, using the Transforming Adamantine Soul Chasing Great Technique. Once her gaze met theirs, they would be consumed by longing, unable to think of anything else or be intimate with any other woman. She would then sense their presence, come to them, and drain their essence, leaving them as withered skeletons.
The Cold Flame Soul Chasing Sand was refined from countless aphrodisiacs. Even a long-cultivated Immortal would be enchanted by it, allowing her to do as she pleased.
Wu Fan, with a corrupt heart, loved such techniques. Before entering the palace, he had learned such magic from an evil master, who was later killed by Drunken Daoist. Wu Fan then entered the palace with Dongxiu to learn Dao techniques, focusing on magic like the Heavenly Demon Dance. Now, Yue Qing's gift of the Cold Flame Soul Chasing Sand was exactly what he wanted. He bowed and praised Yue Qing's profound magic and heavenly aura, showering him with flattery all the way through the divine sand tunnel.
If it were anyone else, they would have to report back to the palace and get permission before being led in. However, Xu Feiniang was a frequent visitor to Ziyun Palace and had a close relationship with the three palace mistresses, especially Dongxiu. Therefore, there was no need for formalities, and Wu Fan directly led them into the tunnel.
Wu Fan held a plaque and led the way, the boundless golden sand parting like a river on either side, revealing a path. The tunnel was filled with colorful divine sand. Wu Fan activated a spell, and a colorful light enveloped the three, carrying them forward at high speed. In a moment, they had covered the thousand-mile distance.
Upon reaching the bottom of the sea, the divine sand closed behind them, hiding the tunnel. The thousand-mile tunnel disappeared, leaving only a dense coral forest surrounding a fairy palace, filled with pearls and jade, emitting a rainbow of light, illuminating the seabed like daylight. Fish swam and jellyfish danced above, creating a breathtakingly beautiful scene.
Wu Fan led them to the crystal archway and called for the duty disciples to report. Soon, the three palace mistresses, Erfeng, Sanfeng, and Dongxiu, came out to greet them. Xu Feiniang was very familiar with them and introduced Yue Qing to each. Since the Great Palace Mistress Chufeng was in seclusion, the ones who came out were Erfeng, Sanfeng, and Dongxiu.
Dongxiu, wearing a green short-sleeved palace robe, had willow-leaf eyebrows and almond-shaped eyes, with thin lips, indicating a sharp and unkind nature. She was closest to Xu Feiniang and was the most enthusiastic, "Sister Xu, you're finally here! I've mentioned you several times to Palace Mistress Sanfeng. You are an expert in alchemy. If you had been here that day, our Ziyun Pill would have been completed long ago." She then looked at Yue Qing, "Is this your fellow disciple? Wutai Sect, a renowned school that has stood for hundreds of years, truly produces people like you, who are as beautiful as celestial beings!"
Yue Qing humbly responded, and Xu Feiniang made witty remarks, making everyone laugh. After a while, the gentle and refined Erfeng, rubbing her belly to suppress her laughter, invited everyone into the palace.
Ziyun Palace was indeed magnificent, like a fairyland, with strange rocks, colorful lights, jade trees, and immortal flowers. Pearls hung from the curtains, white shells lined the steps, coral adorned the emerald, and amber matched the glass. No cave or palace Yue Qing had seen before could compare to this.
Since it was Yue Qing's first visit and he was Xu Feiniang's fellow disciple, Sanfeng immediately ordered the attendants to prepare a banquet to welcome them.
Yue Qing, with over three hundred years of cultivation and the knowledge of the future, had broad horizons, surpassing even Xu Feiniang in some areas. From immortals to mortals, from the wilderness to the imperial court, whether it was famous hermits, historical myths, magic, Dao techniques, or the universe and space, he could tell stories about them all. Some of his tales were so fresh and unusual that the Huangjing Hall fell silent, with even the serving girls leaning in to listen intently. When Yue Qing finished a story, they would all exclaim in unison, marveling at his tales.
