376: Chapter 376 Hatsune Miku

"Qing'er, it is time for us to do something meaningful." Cao Yang's lips curled slightly, revealing a mischievous smile as he spoke softly.

Upon hearing this, Tian Qing's delicate body trembled. Like a ripened apple, her face flushed red in an instant. She shyly lowered her head, not daring to meet Cao Yang's gaze.

Although Tian Qing had experienced the baptism of eternal ages and witnessed countless vicissitudes of life, she had never imagined that she, a dignified Chaos Spirit, naturally powerful, would one day have a Dao Companion.

Moreover, this Dao Companion was one she had chosen willingly.

Watching Tian Qing's shy appearance, Cao Yang's heart stirred. He stepped forward and gently pulled Tian Qing into his embrace, as if she were a priceless treasure.

Tian Qing was startled by Cao Yang's sudden action, but she did not resist. Instead, she submissively buried her entire face into Cao Yang's broad chest, feeling his warmth and aura.

"Brother Cao, you must be gentle!" Tian Qing's voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzzing, as if only she could hear it.

Hearing this, Cao Yang couldn't help but burst into laughter. His laughter echoed in the room, filled with joy and delight.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect that the always strong and domineering Qing'er would have such a feminine side! Rest assured, my experience is quite rich." Cao Yang's words revealed a hint of confidence and smugness.

After saying this, Cao Yang carried Tian Qing and slowly walked toward the exquisite jade bed at the back of the room, every step appearing light yet firm.

Just as Cao Yang and Tian Qing were embroiled in a heated debate about the Dao, neither willing to yield to the other, Jinwu Lanxin left the Chaos region where the Heavenly Emperor Hall was located, huffing like a gust of wind.

"Hmph!" Jinwu Lanxin cursed inwardly, "If I can't deal with you, can't I mess up your Inner Universe?" The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She couldn't help but throw a punch, smashing it fiercely toward an abandoned, desolate planet.

With a loud "bang," that planet was instantly shattered by the force of Jinwu Lanxin's punch, turning into countless fragments that drifted throughout the Universe.

Only then did Jinwu Lanxin release some of the pent-up frustration in her chest, and her mood slowly calmed down. She began to spread her Divine Sense, wanting to investigate just how large Cao Yang's Inner Universe was.

However, when her Divine Sense entered Cao Yang's Inner Universe, she was surprised to discover that this Inner Universe was more than a hundred times larger than she had imagined!

Moreover, in this massive Inner Universe, there were some places that her Divine Sense could not enter.

"How is this guy's Inner Universe so big?" Jinwu Lanxin muttered to herself, "It's actually so much bigger than mine, and what are those places? My Divine Sense can't even enter them."

Her heart was filled with curiosity, and she developed a keen interest in these places that her Divine Sense could not enter.

Thus, she flew without hesitation toward that mysterious place within her Divine Sense, wanting to investigate the truth.

Jinwu Lanxin's speed was like lightning, astonishingly fast. Like a meteor streaking across the night sky, she instantly crossed endless distances, as if space itself could not block her advance.

In this short span of less than three breaths, she had already approached that mysterious place, a Forbidden Ground that even Divine Sense could not enter.

It was permeated with an aura of darkness and mystery, making one feel a sense of awe.

Jinwu Lanxin stopped slowly at the edge of the Forbidden Ground, her gaze falling upon a figure not far away.

It was a young girl with a graceful figure and a beautiful face. Although she was not as stunningly beautiful as Jinwu Lanxin, in the outside Great Universe, she could definitely be called a peerless beauty.

Jinwu Lanxin couldn't help but be a bit surprised. She had originally thought this place would be desolate, with no one else present.

However, the young girl before her shattered her expectations.

What made Jinwu Lanxin even more puzzled was that the young girl was standing there completely unharmed, having suffered no injuries at all.

You must know, this was a Forbidden Ground that even Divine Sense could not enter; ordinary Cultivators would likely have been devoured by the mysterious power here long ago.

"Why didn't that lecher lay a hand on the girl here?" Jinwu Lanxin muttered in a low voice, a flash of confusion crossing her eyes.

According to common sense, such Forbidden Grounds usually concealed immense danger, and for that young girl to be able to stay here safe and sound was truly too strange.

Daoist Venerable Chuyin slowly opened her eyes. Her eyes were like deep, profound lakes, calm and mysterious.

However, when her gaze fell upon the woman before her, her brows furrowed slightly, and an indescribable sense of tension surged in her heart.

She couldn't help but ponder inwardly: "How did this woman suddenly appear before me? With my strength as a dignified Daoist Venerable, I didn't even sense her arrival!"

This thought flashed through her mind, making her feel a bit vigilant toward the woman before her.

However, Daoist Venerable Chuyin was, after all, a powerhouse who had weathered countless storms. She quickly calmed down and swept her Divine Sense, like an invisible force, quietly across the other party's divine body.

However, to her surprise, the divine body of this Heaven-Defyingly beautiful woman had absolutely no fluctuations of a cultivation base.

The vigilance in Daoist Venerable Chuyin's heart eased slightly, but her gaze remained fixed on the woman before her, as if she wanted to see through her appearance and discern her true inner thoughts.

Finally, Daoist Venerable Chuyin's lips curled slightly, revealing a faint smile.

Her voice was gentle and magnetic as she spoke slowly to the Heaven-Defyingly beautiful woman: "Little girl, I see that you must be an Innate deity born just these past few years, right? Our Human Race has always been inviting Innate deities to join us with heavy rewards, and the treatment we offer is considered the most generous among all the ten thousand races.

If you have not joined any other race yet, why not consider joining our Human Race? I can guarantee that you will receive the highest treatment and the best resources, and you will be able to Breakthrough to the Dao Realm very soon. What do you think?"

Daoist Venerable Chuyin's words revealed a sense of confidence and sincerity; clearly, she was full of confidence in her proposal.

In recent years, many Innate deities had indeed frequently appeared in the Universe. These deities were born with a certain degree of powerful strength, but they had not yet formally Cultivated, which was why they had no cultivation base, only pure strength.

Clearly, Daoist Venerable Chuyin had also categorized Jinwu Lanxin before her into this category of Innate deities.

The Aptitude of Innate deities could be described as Heaven-Defying to the extreme. Not only were they naturally favored by the Heavenly Dao, but they also advanced in terms of Realms as if riding a rocket.

Such gifted existences would naturally bring endless Luck, so once discovered, they would become the focus of contention and solicitation by all the ten thousand races.

"Haha, little girl? Are you talking about me?" Hearing Daoist Venerable Chuyin's address, Jinwu Lanxin couldn't help but find it somewhat funny. She reached out and pointed to herself, then the corners of her lips curled up, revealing a playful smile.

After all, with her status as a darling of Chaos and her Innate powerful strength, to actually be treated as a little girl in such a Great Universe was truly something that made her feel a bit surprised.

Daoist Venerable Chuyin quickly nodded and explained: "Yes, rest assured, our Human Race is very friendly toward Innate deities.

We will not impose too many restrictions on you. As long as you can protect the safety of the Human Race for a period of time after you grow up in the future, then before that, the Human Race will unconditionally provide you with various resources for your Cultivation."

Her tone was sincere, and a gentle smile always hung on her face, giving people a feeling of being trustworthy.

After hearing Daoist Venerable Chuyin's words, Jinwu Lanxin first shook her head slightly, seemingly uninterested in her proposal.

However, when she saw Daoist Venerable Chuyin's sincere expression, a faint sense of surprise surged in her heart.

Her expression froze slightly, revealing a hint of nostalgia, and she said slowly: "Little girl, what an interesting address; it has been a long time since anyone called me that."

Daoist Venerable Chuyin heard the strange words of the woman before her and was also somewhat puzzled.

"You are not bad! You actually have a trace of Chaos Fortune in your body. I don't know where you got it from, especially when that lecher doesn't have a shred of Chaos Fortune on him." Jinwu Lanxin smiled, a flash of appreciation passing through her eyes.

But immediately after, she shook her head slightly and sighed: "It's a pity! If you were outside of Chaos, perhaps you would have a chance to Breakthrough to the Chaos Realm. It's just a pity that this is not a land of Chaos; wanting to Breakthrough here is probably as difficult as ascending to heaven."

Daoist Venerable Chuyin couldn't help but furrow her brows, pondering inwardly: This woman is so strange; not only is she so understanding of the mysterious Luck within my body, but she also speaks such words. And listening to what she means, it seems she comes from a world outside the Great Universe, but what kind of existence is this outside the Great Universe?

The more Chuyin thought about it, the more she felt this woman was mysterious and unpredictable, and the other party's words aroused her keen interest.

After all, in this Universe, the Realms of those top powerhouses had been stagnant for a long time. Now, hearing this woman mention outside of Chaos and some Chaos Realm, what did this actually mean?

After thinking for a moment, Chuyin decided to put aside the doubts in her heart and took the initiative to ask Jinwu Lanxin for advice.

She restrained the smile on her face, bowed and saluted the strange woman before her, and asked politely: "Apologies, Fellow Daoist, I was quite impolite just now, and I hope Fellow Daoist will not blame me. It's just that hearing what Fellow Daoist said, I am quite interested in this so-called 'outside Chaos.' I wonder if I could ask Fellow Daoist to enlighten me a little?"

"Hmm, considering that you truly didn't have any bad intentions just now, it wouldn't hurt to tell you." Jinwu Lanxin thought to herself, then paused for a moment and continued: "Do you know the name of this Great Universe you are in? Also, have you ever been to other Great Universe Seas?"

Daoist Venerable Chuyin heard this and couldn't help but shake her head, revealing a hint of sighing, and replied: "I do not know. Although my strength is already quite powerful, and can even be said to have reached the Peak of the Universe, the Universe is truly too vast and boundless. I have never left this Universe, let alone gone to other Great Universe Seas."

Seeing this, Jinwu Lanxin nodded slightly, indicating understanding, and continued: "Hmm, that is also true. After all, the Universe is so vast; if one does not specifically go to travel the Universe, it is indeed very difficult to leave this Universe."

Daoist Venerable Chuyin quickly nodded in agreement, seemingly deeply agreeing with Jinwu Lanxin's words.

However, Jinwu Lanxin changed the subject and suddenly said: "However, even if you spend a large amount of time traveling the Universe, I'm afraid it would still be difficult to leave this Great Universe Sea!"

Daoist Venerable Chuyin heard this and immediately furrowed her brows, revealing a look of confusion, and hurriedly asked: "Why is that? Could it be that there are no other Great Universe Seas in this world?"

"Correct, there are indeed no other Great Universe Seas in this world, because the Universe you are in is actually that lecher's Inner Universe..." Jinwu Lanxin's words were not yet finished when she was abruptly interrupted by Daoist Venerable Chuyin's shocked voice.

"What? Fellow Daoist, are you saying that the Great Universe Sea we are in is actually someone else's Inner Universe? How is this possible? Are you not joking?" Daoist Venerable Chuyin looked at Jinwu Lanxin with an expression of disbelief, the shock in her heart simply beyond words.

At this moment, in addition to shock, Daoist Venerable Chuyin's heart was filled with even more lingering fear.

She couldn't help but start to doubt, could the Great Universe Sea that she and the others had always lived in really just be a Small Universe inside someone else's body?

Once this thought arose, it spread rapidly in her mind like a plague, making her mood increasingly heavy.

"Of course, how could I joke about such a thing?" Jinwu Lanxin said with a serious face, "Actually, I am not a person of this Universe, but come from the Chaos World outside. It's just that I was unfortunately ambushed by the master of this Universe, which is why I was caught and brought here."

After saying this, Jinwu Lanxin slowly extended her right hand and lightly pointed at Daoist Venerable Chuyin.

Seeing a faint ray of light shoot out from her fingertip, it struck Daoist Venerable Chuyin as quickly as lightning.

In an instant, Daoist Venerable Chuyin was like someone who had been hit by a binding spell; she froze on the spot, unable to move a single bit.

Seeing this, Jinwu Lanxin's lips curled slightly, revealing a faint smile.

She knew very well in her heart that if she did not display more powerful strength, the other party would likely not believe what she said at all.

Jinwu Lanxin's lips curled up, and she looked at the woman before her with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, saying slowly: "Do not underestimate me; I am not some little girl. My Realm is much higher than yours! You are only at the Peak Source Emperor, and although you have a trace of Chaos Fortune in your body and your strength can barely fight against the Pseudo-Chaos Realm, I am at the High-level Chaos Domain Lord Realm. There is a full three Great Realm difference between us!"

After saying this, Jinwu Lanxin released the restraint on the woman before her, as if she had completely controlled the situation and was not at all worried that the other party would have any unusual movements.

Daoist Venerable Chuyin stood in the Void Realm with a face of despair, her body trembling slightly, seemingly unable to accept this cruel fact.

Originally, they had always thought that their own Aptitude was Heaven-Defying to the extreme, so why had their Realms always been stagnant? Could it really be that this Universe could not support them to continue breaking through?

However, now she suddenly realized that they had always been living in someone else's Inner Universe, just like birds imprisoned in a cage, never able to truly soar freely.

Then, wouldn't their Realms never be able to advance any further? Moreover, their lives would also forever be in the hands of others, at the mercy of others.

In Daoist Venerable Chuyin's mind, the figures of billions of Human Race compatriots constantly flashed, as well as the various struggles with the ten thousand races in the past.

Those past glories and brilliance now dissipated like passing smoke and clouds, leaving only endless sorrow and despair.

For some reason, sadness suddenly welled up from her heart.
