47: Chapter 47 The Secret Within the Divine Iron

Cao Yang and Mu Wanying left the Huangqing Small World and returned to Mu Wanying's Immortal Cave.

"Senior Sister, you should first familiarize yourself with your Earth Immortal Realm cultivation; I will head back now," Cao Yang said, not staying long in his Senior Sister's Immortal Cave.

Mu Wanying wanted to say something, her lips slightly parted, but she held back. Watching Cao Yang leave, she longed to express her feelings for him, but she always felt there was a barrier between them.

Mu Wanying sat cross-legged and familiarized herself with her powerful Immortal power.

With a teleportation, she appeared in the Monster Forest over a hundred miles away from the Moyang Sword Sect. Mu Wanying took out the meteor star sword, intending to test her Immortal power.

But as soon as she channeled her Immortal power into the sword, to Mu Wanying's shock, the sword shattered inch by inch. Before she could recover, she found herself in a gray, hazy world, with only a mysterious piece of meteor iron left in the air.

She could only see clearly within a radius of a hundred miles. Not far from Mu Wanying stood a divine palace. Mu Wanying cautiously swept the visible area with her Divine Sense; apart from the divine palace before her, there was nothing else.

Mu Wanying flew cautiously toward the divine palace. When she reached the entrance and was about to push the doors open with her hand, a suction force pulled her inside.

Mu Wanying found herself in a grand hall. Sitting above the hall was a woman whose face could not be seen, her entire body shrouded in mist. She could tell it was a woman, but her features remained obscured.

Mu Wanying asked cautiously, "May I ask, Senior, who are you? Did you pull me in here?"

"Indeed, little girl, it was I who brought you in," the woman sitting in the hall said in a majestic voice, which carried a soul-stirring quality.

"As for who I am? There is no harm in telling you. I am the Empress of the Divine Realm, named Luo Shenyu, who once dominated a Star Domain and shook the four corners of the world with my might."

"Forget it, even if I told you, you wouldn't understand. But you need not worry; I am currently only a remnant soul and will not harm you."

"Then, Senior, why did you bring me in?" Mu Wanying asked cautiously.

"Bringing you in is mainly related to the supreme treasure you first encountered."

"Of course, my current plight is also related to this supreme treasure. Back then, to seize this supreme treasure, I was besieged by several Peak God Emperors of the Divine Realm. Unfortunately, despite using all my means, I could only escape with the supreme treasure as a remnant soul."

Luo Shenyu sighed and continued, "Unfortunately, this supreme treasure can only recognize an Innate Star Physique as its Revered Master. Although I possess vast Divine Ability, I could only create an Acquired Physique, which does not meet the requirements of the supreme treasure."

"So, Senior, are you looking for a Revered Master for the treasure?" Mu Wanying seemed to understand a little.

"That is roughly the meaning, but I will not give it away for free."

"Little girl, I see that you possess an Innate Star Immortal Physique and have broken through to the Immortal Realm. Meeting me can be considered fated. As long as you take me as your Revered Master and promise to find divine materials for me to reshape my Physical Body in the future, I will give you the supreme treasure. How about it?" Luo Shenyu's voice was no longer as soul-stirring as before.

Mu Wanying frowned and answered with some hesitation, "But I already have a Revered Master!"

Luo Shenyu smiled slightly and said earnestly, "Little girl, the path of Cultivation is long and endless; having a few more Revered Masters is not a strange thing. Moreover, this supreme treasure is extraordinary. It only appears in the Divine Realm once every ten billion years, and its grade is so high that even I find it difficult to judge. Do you really not want it?"

Hearing that even a God Emperor could not determine the grade of this supreme treasure, Mu Wanying could not help but feel moved.

Although she was not clear about how powerful a God Emperor was, she was certain that they were definitely more powerful than the Immortals of the Immortal Realm. After all, she had heard Cao Yang mention that the strongest in the Immortal Realm were only at the Immortal Emperor Realm.

Looking at the mysterious woman before her who claimed to be the Empress of the Divine Realm, Mu Wanying still had some doubts and disbelief in her heart. But when she thought of the huge gap between herself and Cao Yang, her heart became incomparably firm.

Cao Yang's mystery and power filled her with awe, and this feeling also ignited a desire deep within her to pursue strength and higher Realms. She knew well that only by constantly becoming stronger could she stand by Cao Yang's side and become his true partner.

"Revered Master, please accept this bow from your Disciple, Mu Wanying." Mu Wanying looked at Luo Shenyu with firm eyes and then respectfully knelt to pay her respects.

"Good, good, good. Disciple, no need for such formalities." Luo Shenyu nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile. As her voice fell, the surrounding mist gradually dissipated, revealing her majestic and beautiful figure, dressed in purple-gold imperial robes and wearing a crown.

Mu Wanying looked up, stunned by Luo Shenyu's beauty and majesty. She could not help but sigh that this mysterious woman indeed possessed an extraordinary temperament, inspiring feelings of reverence.

At this moment, Mu Wanying no longer had many doubts about Luo Shenyu's identity, because she could feel the powerful aura emanating from her.

She decided to follow Luo Shenyu to learn, working hard to improve her strength and striving to achieve her goals.

"Disciple Wanying, the Cultivation Technique you are practicing is too trashy. This is a top-grade God Emperor-level Cultivation Technique, the Ziwei Imperial Sutra, that I obtained in the past. It happens to be perfectly suited for your Physique. You should switch to this one!" As Luo Shenyu spoke, she pointed a finger at Mu Wanying's forehead.

Mu Wanying only felt a vast amount of information surge into her mind, almost causing her to faint, but she gritted her teeth and held on.

As the information surged in, a purple-gold book called the Ziwei Imperial Sutra appeared in Mu Wanying's Sea of Consciousness. It shone with mysterious light and radiated a powerful aura.

Mu Wanying gratefully began to comprehend it and started to circulate her Immortal power according to the methods of the Ziwei Imperial Sutra.

Under Luo Shenyu's guidance and assistance, Mu Wanying quickly completed the conversion of her Cultivation Technique and successfully broke through to the Early Stage of True Immortal.

"Thank you, Revered Master, for teaching me this Cultivation Technique!" Mu Wanying opened her eyes and thanked Luo Shenyu.

"Mm, also Wanying, that sword you previously refined with a drop of blood has been destroyed. You need to re-refine the supreme treasure." Luo Shenyu nodded with satisfaction and then reminded her.

Upon hearing this, Mu Wanying was startled and quickly asked, "Revered Master, what is a supreme treasure? How do I refine it?"

Luo Shenyu explained, "A supreme treasure is an object that surpasses cognition, possessing special abilities and power. To refine a supreme treasure, you need to use your Divine Sense to communicate with it, establish a connection, inject power to make it recognize you as its Revered Master, and refine it slowly. However, different supreme treasures have different methods of refinement; some may be very difficult or even dangerous."

Hearing this, Mu Wanying could not help but feel a bit nervous and asked, "Revered Master, can you tell me how to refine this piece of supreme treasure?"

Luo Shenyu shook her head and said, "You should go out first. As for refining the supreme treasure, I cannot help you with that. After you go out, you can keep an eye out for Medicinal Pills that can repair a remnant soul for me."

After Luo Shenyu finished speaking, she waved her hand, a flash of light passed by, and Mu Wanying disappeared from where she stood.

When Mu Wanying opened her eyes again, she found herself back in the Monster Forest, and the surrounding environment was exactly the same as before she entered the space.

Hanging in front of her was an ordinary charred piece of iron, only the size of a fist.

"Is this the supreme treasure Revered Master spoke of?" Mu Wanying looked at the charred iron block before her, feeling somewhat incredulous.

Mu Wanying tried to use her Divine Sense to connect with it while injecting Immortal power, attempting to refine it.

Perhaps because of her Physique, she succeeded in refining it with her Divine Sense very quickly.

With a thought from Mu Wanying, the iron block transformed into the appearance of the original meteor star sword, only it was a deep purple-black, looking soul-stirring at a glance.

Mu Wanying also learned the name of the treasure: chaos star root. It was the core of the first planet born in a Grandmist Universe. The chaos star root had infinite wonderful uses; obtaining its recognition as Revered Master offered the possibility of becoming the Revered Master of the Grandmist Universe.

And the Innate Star Physique that her Revered Master spoke of was not an ordinary Physique. As long as a Physique had an origin, it could not obtain the recognition of the chaos star root. For example, a Physique inherited from one's ancestors was not a true Innate Physique.

And an Innate Physique like Mu Wanying's was something hard to produce even in billions of worlds. Her Physique would automatically level up as she absorbed starlight power, becoming increasingly monstrous.
