241: A vortex, named Xian'er, a breakthrough in cultivation

Zhi Meng, holding the fair and tender baby, stared blankly at the Xuan Huang Mother Qi in the Ruyi Space.

Her heart was in turmoil, and she murmured, "This couldn't be the Hongmeng Ruyi Tower's space, could it?"

She was certain that the Hongmeng Ruyi Tower was not an Innate Spirit Treasure of the Xuanhuang Great Dao.

However, this Ruyi Space was filled with the Xuanhuang Great Dao and abundant Xuan Huang Mother Qi.

So, the question was, could her good disciple possess two Innate Spirit Treasures and have merged them?

At the thought of this possibility, Zhi Meng's heart pounded: "My disciple truly has the potential of an Immortal Emperor."

Having obtained two Innate Spirit Treasures, if Gu Qing didn't have the potential of an Immortal Emperor, who would?

"Wah! Wah!"

The Immortal Infant suddenly burst into tears, her chubby little hands clutching Zhi Meng's clothes.

Clearly, she was hungry.

"Be good, baby!"

Zhi Meng's face was flushed, her movements a little stiff. After a moment's thought, she extended a small finger for the baby to suck.

She planned to temporarily appease the baby and then go find beast milk.

But to her surprise, after sucking for a while and finding no milk, the Immortal Infant started crying loudly again, large golden tears rolling down her cheeks.

"What's wrong?"

Gu Qing entered to find the baby crying and the mother at a loss.

"She's hungry."

Zhi Meng's eyes darted away, not daring to look at Gu Qing.

"If she's hungry then... Master, wait a moment."

Gu Qing's words took a sudden turn, and he rushed off to find beast milk.

The two novices fumbled as they cared for the Immortal Infant.

Just as the Immortal Infant was crying incessantly, Zhi Meng's peripheral vision caught sight of the immortal ying flower. Her eyes lit up, and she placed the Immortal Infant on it.

However, it was still useless.

After the Immortal Infant left the immortal ying flower, absorbed the aura of the two, and formed a blood connection, she completely became a human infant.

Although the immortal ying flower could still serve as a warm bed for the Immortal Infant, the Immortal Infant was no longer a pure and flawless Great Dao fetus.

Fortunately, Gu Qing quickly found beast milk, swiftly prepared a feeding bottle, and placed it in the Immortal Infant's mouth.

"Mmm-hmm."

The Immortal Infant's chubby little hands gripped the bottle tightly, her eyes closed as she sucked vigorously, letting out comfortable grunts.

"Phew."

Both of them let out a sigh of relief; the world was finally quiet.

"Let me see how many swirls she has, one..."

Gu Qing joyfully took the Immortal Infant, caressed her soft short hair, and seeing only one swirl, he was immediately disappointed.

"What's wrong with one swirl?" Zhi Meng said, rolling her eyes and chiding him.

"Heh, one swirl is pretty good too." Gu Qing chuckled awkwardly, looking at the Immortal Infant.

"Such a good baby."

A baby who wasn't crying was very adorable. Gu Qing couldn't help but poke the Immortal Infant's chubby cheeks with his finger.

The Immortal Infant, found by chance, was even softer and cuter than a New Year's painting baby.

This trip wasn't a wasted one after all.

Gu Qing looked at the immortal ying flower, casually cast some slumbering formations, and placed them on the Immortal Source Liquid.

He then summoned Xuan Huang Mother Qi for the immortal ying flower to absorb, which would in turn nourish the Immortal Infant.

Zhi Meng watched, then suddenly slapped her forehead in annoyance. When the Immortal Infant was crying earlier, how could she have forgotten that she could use magic?

Without further hesitation, she immediately set about making some baby clothes, shoes, hats, and bellybands.

Before long, the two had dressed the Immortal Infant impeccably, making her even cuter and softer.

"Master, why don't you name our daughter?" Gu Qing suddenly looked at Zhi Meng, his smile ambiguous.

"The baby is an immortal ying flower, possessing a Great Dao Immortal Body, so how about Xian'er?"

Zhi Meng looked down at the Immortal Infant and said softly.

"Good."

Gu Qing was a little disappointed.

Xian'er was a beautiful and fitting name, but it was a pity that her mother had no intention of becoming his wife.

Placing the Immortal Infant in the immortal ying flower's warm bed, with the slumbering formation, allowed the Immortal Infant to remain in a deep sleep, entering a state of innate Great Dao fetus.

She would wake up looking exactly as she did when she fell asleep, so there was no need to worry about the baby becoming a young lady after a period of closed-door cultivation.

The only difference was that as the Immortal Infant absorbed Xuan Huang Mother Qi and Immortal Source Liquid, her essence would grow stronger.

With Xian'er's Great Dao Immortal Body and foundation, she would likely have Heavenly God Realm cultivation upon reaching adulthood.

If Xian'er were to slumber in the innate Great Dao fetus state for thousands or tens of thousands of years, her foundation would be even higher, and she might even have Profound God Realm cultivation upon reaching adulthood.

After settling Xian'er, Gu Qing said, "Let's go into seclusion for a while!"

Both of them had just broken through a major realm. Although their comprehension of the Dao was extremely stable, the breakthrough was too fast, and they still needed time to consolidate and sort out their Dao techniques.

"Alright!"

The two found their respective places, absorbing Xuan Huang Mother Qi to strengthen their bodies and comprehending the Xuanhuang Great Dao.

Gu Qing, in order to rapidly break through his realm, also took some immortal pills.

However, the effect was not satisfactory.

It was simply that his foundation was too profound, something that immortal pills couldn't stimulate... Shi Jingqiong escaped from the secret realm, her beautiful eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Mrs., your subordinate suspects that it was the Seventh Prince..."

"Shut up."

Li Yuzheng's face was grim, but before he could finish speaking, Shi Jingqiong raised her hand to interrupt him.

She had naturally guessed that the person who triggered the killing formation was most likely someone from the Seventh Prince's faction.

After all, only the two of them and Zhi Meng knew about this secret realm.

If it wasn't the Seventh Prince, it couldn't possibly be Zhi Meng, could it?

Unfortunately, even if she had guessed, without evidence, saying it would be slander, which would give her enemies leverage. It would be bad if the Seventh Prince retaliated.

But she couldn't just let it go like that.

One must know, she had invested heavily in this search for the immortal ying flower.

She had invited three intermediate-level immortal formation masters, nine low-level immortal formation masters, and a host of their disciples and grand-disciples, preparing numerous formation artifacts.

There were also many Divine Fire Realm cultivators and five Heavenly God Realm cultivators.

As a result, more than half were killed or injured, and they didn't even get a single hair.

She didn't even know how to explain it to the families of the deceased.

She herself had also faced extreme danger, sacrificing two Heavenly God artifacts.

With such immense losses, if she didn't retaliate, she simply couldn't swallow this anger.

"How is the Seventh Prince doing?" Shi Jingqiong asked.

"He suffered no losses and walked out of the grand formation unscathed. However, I heard that after he left, he injured several subordinates, presumably unable to accept the loss of the immortal ying flower."

Li Yuzheng said in a deep voice.

"Serves him right."

Shi Jingqiong's beautiful eyes flickered as she pondered how to set up the Seventh Prince, determined not to let him leave the Morning Glow Evening Sea unscathed.

"Mrs., do you think the immortal ying flower was obtained by Dan Shi Gu?" Li Yuzheng suddenly asked.

"Impossible."

Shi Jingqiong dismissed it immediately without thinking.

They had brought so many immortal formation masters and prepared a large number of formation artifacts, yet they still struggled every step of the way.

Even if Gu Qing was a high-level immortal formation master, he couldn't possibly be that much faster than them.

"Then, what if they were Profound God Realm cultivators, or high-level immortal formation masters, or possessed divine pupils that could see through illusions?"

Li Yuzheng voiced his conjecture.

"..."

Shi Jingqiong's beautiful eyes widened, then she shook her head: "It's impossible for those two to be Profound God Realm cultivators."

What kind of existence were Profound God Realm mighty figures? If Gu Qing and Zhi Meng were Profound God Realm cultivators, why would they need to be so cautious and inquire about information?

Why would they need to trade immortal pills with them?

However, Li Yuzheng had reminded her.

One of Gu Qing and Zhi Meng might possess divine pupils that could see through illusions.

After Long Jue calmed down, he also thought of this and frantically sent his subordinates to search.

He even went so far as to invite a Profound God Realm mighty figure, acting as if he would scour the entire Soul Crossing Sea Starfield to find Gu Qing and Zhi Meng.

However, the two had hidden inside the Hongmeng Ruyi Tower, and Long Jue was destined to find nothing.

Unable to find them, Long Jue was driven to a furious rage.

"All calculations, no match for Heaven's will..." Long Jue's expression twisted, his intestines churning with regret.

He had originally intended to gain both wealth and beauty, but who knew he would lose both his wife and his army, and also thoroughly offend Shi Jingqiong.

"Reporting to Your Highness, we have searched the entire Soul Crossing Continent, but there is no trace of Gu Qing or Zhi Meng. Do we need to continue searching?"

At this moment, a Divine Fire Realm cultivator rushed in, kneeling on one knee.

"Search, continue to search."

"Even if you have to overturn the space of the Soul Crossing Sea Starfield, you must find this pair of scoundrels for me."

...Time flowed by leisurely.

Ten years had passed in the Ruyi Space in an instant, while only one year had passed in the outside world.

Gu Qing's realm had broken through to the peak of the third level of the Divine Fire Realm. His immortal essence, Dao techniques, and divine abilities were more than ten times stronger than before.

The biggest change was in his physical body.

Every wisp of his blood qi was like a true dragon, containing terrifying power.

Gu Qing estimated that with the strength of his physical body, he could shatter divine artifacts with pure physical strength, without needing to use immortal essence.

His physical body had evolved to an existence even more terrifying than divine artifacts.

"System, bring up my data panel."

"Name: Gu Qing."

"Realm: Divine Fire Realm, Peak Third Level."

"Physique: Supreme Dao Bone, Dao Pupil, Chaos Immortal Body."

"Talent: Great Dao Companion, Unprecedented, Eternal Life with a Thought."

"Fate: Variable."

"Destiny: Unknown."

"Luck: Two million."

"Innate Divine Abilities: Chaos Treasure Bottle Seal, Yin Yang Wheel, Star Picking Hand, Chaotic Return to Ruin Sword Art, Star Shattering Finger, Star Dou Divine Fist, Divine Prison, Blood Drop Reshaping, Profound Yellow Heaven Sealing Art, Space Divine Art, Devouring Divine Art."

"Divine Abilities: Space Teleportation (Mastered), Reincarnation Divine Pupil, Life and Death Wheel, Nine Heavens Mysterious Sword Technique, Qi and Blood Dragon Transformation, Tiangang Nine Sword Art, Profound Yellow Heaven Sealing Finger, Heavenly Emperor Fist."

Heaven Opening Divine Halberd (Annihilating the Eight Desolations, Five Element Differentiation, Yin Yang Heaven Opening, Yin Yang Reversal, Minor Accomplishment.)

"Magical Treasures: Chaotic Undying Halberd, Profound Fire Treasure Mirror, void flying boat, tiangang nine swords, yin yang bracelet."

"Companion Exotic Treasure: Calamity Black Dragon."

"innate spiritual root: Nine-Colored Soul Lotus."

"Innate Magical Treasures: space divine rune, profound heaven sword, Hongmeng Ruyi Tower, Guiyi Sword, heaven bead, fire spirit bead, gold spirit bead, earth spirit bead, wood spirit bead."

"Cultivation Method: Chaos Immortal Scripture."

"My luck is a bit insufficient," Gu Qing thought to himself.

He currently had two drops of time marrow. If he used the Calamity Black Dragon to enhance his cultivation, he could probably reach the peak of the Divine Fire Realm.

But if he did that, it would be like robbing Peter to pay Paul, making one wall shorter than the other.

His strength would actually decrease.

After all, Gu Qing couldn't possibly use his remaining two million luck to compensate for the Calamity Black Dragon's losses.

It was possible to let the Calamity Black Dragon devour living beings to improve, but that would be too dangerous.

If he accidentally provoked an existence he couldn't afford to provoke, or exposed the Calamity Black Dragon, then things would get out of hand.

On the other side, Zhi Meng also stopped cultivating at the same time.

Having consumed two Burial Divine Pills and more than ten Heavenly Soul Pills, she had broken through to the peak of the third level of the Heavenly God Realm in one go.

Her physical body, cleansed by the endless Xuan Huang Mother Qi, was even more incomparably powerful.

At this moment, her body was enveloped in Chaos Qi, exuding an innate Dao rhyme, like an innate deity, transcendent and refined.

"My disciple is truly my lucky star," Zhi Meng thought with joy.

She stepped forward and stopped before the immortal ying flower, looking at her deeply sleeping daughter, and reached out to poke her daughter's fair and tender cheek.

"So cute."

Becoming a mother out of nowhere, with her disciple Gu Qing as the father, made her feel very conflicted inside.

Why did she impulsively decide to be the Immortal Infant's mother back then?!

Zhi Meng's face was troubled.

Looking at her fair and chubby daughter, Zhi Meng quickly cast aside her worries, her heart filled with tenderness, and an unconscious smile appeared on her face.

She, Zhi Meng, also had a daughter now, no longer all alone.

"Master, where do we go next?"

Gu Qing came to her side and asked softly.

"We'll collect all the treasures on the map coordinates, and then we'll go out and look for the Star Dao Sect."

Zhi Meng thought for a moment and said so.

Without a backer, everything was inconvenient and she had to be cautious.

She was afraid of accidentally offending an unprovokable prodigy or evildoer and being hunted down by a mighty figure.

Moreover, Gu Qing had also gained enough experience and was not lacking in treasures or immortal crystals.

The most urgent task was to first find a backer, and then properly digest what they had gained and improve their realms.

"But I still want to go to Time Twilight."

No matter what, he had to catch He Ni and bring her back.

Daring to steal his ball and run, he definitely had to teach He Ni a good lesson.

"It's too far. Even if we take a void flying boat from the Heaven Treasure Business Building, it would take at least several hundred years, or even longer."

Zhi Meng frowned, not understanding why Gu Qing insisted on going to Time Twilight.

Moreover, that place was a battlefield for Profound God Realm cultivators.

One must know that the higher the realm, the greater the disparity.

If a Heavenly God Realm cultivator could casually swat a Divine Fire Realm cultivator to death, then a Profound God Realm cultivator could instantly kill a large group of Heavenly God Realm cultivators with a flick of a finger.

They could even erase them with a single thought, destroying both body and soul.
