59: Chapter 59 The Descent of the God of Transformation

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."

A wild wind blew past, dispersing all the smoke and dust.

An elegant and voluptuous young woman floated gracefully in mid-air, drawing everyone's attention.

Her face was like a full moon, her features relaxed, resembling a peony in full bloom or a timeless Ruyi scepter.

Even with her golden skirts layered like rosy clouds, they could not hide her curvaceous and proud figure.

Like a fairy from the Nine Heavens descending to earth, or a brilliant sun, she instantly captured the gaze of everyone present.

However, the strange thing was...

Not a shred of Spiritual Pressure emanated from her body; she seemed just like a Mortal.

On the Prison Boat.

"Brother Chen, who is this woman?"

Su Xiaojing looked back, only to find Chen Xuan staring intently at the woman in the air, as if he were already infatuated with her.

She couldn't help but show a look of annoyance, glancing down at her own chest and realizing she lacked the assets to compete with her beauty.

"Dammit."

The male cultivators in the cages reacted the same way, staring fixedly at the elegant figure in the sky.

"So beautiful!"

"I, Old Black Bull, have cultivated for decades and have never seen anyone so good-looking. I could die happy right now."

Only a few remained clear-headed.

"Was Senior Jiang's strike blocked by this female cultivator?"

"It's not impossible. Look at Senior Jiang's reaction!"

In the center of Moon-Drinking Bay, Heavenly Lord Danxia stared intently at Jiang Junjie, her expression as cold as frost.

The latter could not move an inch.

This was because...

A pressure like the collapsing heavens was bearing down heavily upon the crown of his head.

In the next instant...

"Boom!"

He actually crashed to the ground like a falling star.

The female cultivator in golden palace robes waved her hand, and a gilded barrier enveloped her and Jiang Junjie, cutting off outsiders.

This move caused an uproar among the people on the ship.

"Why can't we watch anymore?"

"Does this female Senior have some connection with Senior Jiang? Do they have important matters to discuss?"

Meanwhile, at the bow of the ship, Chen Xuan finally breathed a long sigh of relief, his expression relaxing.

Su Xiaojing was puzzled: "Brother Chen, what happened to you just now? She didn't use any charm techniques, so she shouldn't have been able to control you for so long."

Chen Xuan explained, "Jinger, you misunderstand. I wasn't captivated by that Senior's appearance; I was afraid she might be related to Xu Changsheng."

"Think about it, in the middle of nowhere on a dark night, a Senior happens to appear who is evenly matched with Old Ancestor Jiang..."

Su Xiaojing immediately understood his meaning. Recalling the strangeness of the situation, she couldn't help but feel regret for being blinded by jealousy just now.

"I see. Thank you for clarifying, Brother Chen."

Chen Xuan nodded. "Since this Senior has excluded Xu Changsheng, it means they don't know each other."

Inside the barrier.

Ignoring his disheveled state, Jiang Junjie showed a look of horror. He cupped his hands and performed a half-kneeling salute. "Junior Jiang Junjie pays his respects to Senior! May I ask why Senior has come?"

Judging by the intimidation the other party exerted, she was at least a True Lord of the Nascent Soul level. It was impossible for the two Juniors before him, who were concealing their Qi, to be acquainted with her.

Heavenly Lord Danxia gave a brilliant smile. "I have come for Mist."

Hearing this...

Jiang Junjie breathed a sigh of relief. "So that's it. Please forgive this Junior's stupidity; I haven't seen any Fellow Daoist named Mist along the way."

Heavenly Lord Danxia's smile grew even more radiant, her eyes curving into crescents like a thousand flowers swaying in the wind.

"Mist isn't called Mist yet."

Jiang Junjie's heart skipped a beat, as if he had realized something. "Then she is currently called..."

"Yun Xin."

Heavenly Lord Danxia turned her head, her gaze piercing through the gilded barrier.

"She is the Saintess of my clan."

Upon hearing these words...

Jiang Junjie couldn't even maintain his crouching position.

He collapsed to the ground, feeling as if he had entered a freezing ice cellar.

He explained in a panic, "Senior, I... I never intended to harm Miss Yun. My only target was that Xu Changsheng. He is a murderer who killed the disciple I spent many years nurturing."

"Shut up! Do you think this Palace Master saw nothing?"

Heavenly Lord Danxia finally withdrew her smile and slightly raised a finger.

In the next instant...

Golden light flashed.

A thumb-sized hole appeared in Jiang Junjie's forehead.

His eyes widened, as if he still couldn't believe he had fallen, and he collapsed straight onto the ground.

"I..."

Heavenly Lord Danxia's face was filled with fury. "To think you dared to plot against the Saintess of my clan; you truly have the gall of a wolf and the heart of a leopard!"

She straightened her appearance and recalled what had happened earlier.

She had originally thought that after reaching the Ancient Wood Mountain Range, it would take some time to find the person. She hadn't expected to sense a familiar aura just as she stepped out of the Void Realm turbulence.

Her target was actually just a few miles away. With a look of ecstasy, she arrived in a single breath, just in time to see the two being cornered by Jiang Junjie.

"True Lord Xuanji, your calculations were truly accurate. Once I return, I will certainly fulfill my promise to you."

She looked at Yun Xin outside the barrier again, her peerless face tinged with a hint of sadness.

"This child... it really hasn't been easy for her to endure until now."

Then she looked at Xu Changsheng, and her expression instantly turned cold. "So this is the Saintess's master? He is also a bold one, daring to place himself above my clan."

But in the next moment, her expression softened.

This was because Yun Xin was currently holding onto Xu Changsheng's arm, the two of them chatting and laughing in a warm and peaceful manner.

"It seems he has taken great care of the Saintess, and he's clever enough to know how to use my name."

"Very well, for the sake of him taking care of the Saintess for so long, I shall give him a small reward."

*Crack!*

However, just then...

The winds and clouds rose once more.

The seemingly indestructible barrier actually began to shatter inch by inch, disintegrating.

Heavenly Lord Danxia's expression changed, and she vanished from the spot in an instant.

She reappeared in mid-air.

At some unknown point...

Behind the Prison Boat, ten thousand feet of golden light appeared.

Heavenly Lord Danxia's brows knitted tightly. "You old bald donkey, you really did come. You've chased me for a million miles; what on earth do you want?"

"If you want to become my Dao Companion, just say so. It's not like I wouldn't accept!"

The ten thousand feet of golden light flashed several times.

Lotus swirls manifested, and Sanskrit sound waves rippled.

A kind-faced old monk was sitting atop a Thousand-petaled Golden Lotus.

"Amitabha."

"Benefactor Danxia, do not speak such nonsense. This poor monk has only come to demand an explanation!"

"Relying on your profound cultivation, you entered my Buddhist Domain and Buddhist Cities at will, forcibly using the Long-distance Teleportation Arrays of over a dozen cities. This has already caused widespread indignation."

He continuously rubbed the prayer beads in his hand. "Does Benefactor not intend to provide an explanation?"

"Humph, it's not like I didn't pay Spirit Stones. You bald donkeys still wanted me to repair the arrays; how could I possibly have that skill?"

"This poor monk naturally knows you don't have the means, but your Misty Immortal Sect does. Do not continue to use such fallacious reasoning here."

"I think you're the one being difficult. I'm not going to look for my Senior Brother; if you want the arrays repaired, go find him yourself."

A golden mark flashed between Heavenly Lord Danxia's brows, and her hands formed seals as fast as a spinning wheel.

In an instant...

A giant crow suddenly appeared.

It stood firmly on three legs, its entire body was of reddish-gold, and its wings trailed fire.

Its eyes were like molten gold, and its reddish-gold hue dyed the clouds.

"So this is the Soul Transformation-level True Solar Fire!"

Xu Changsheng looked up, feeling the majestic power within it, his face filled with shock.
