298: Obtain the Chaos Nest and grow bitter melons in the home of the Immortal King of Light
"What's wrong?" He Ni's bright and clear beautiful eyes showed a look of confusion.
"It's nothing, you come help me scrub, I'll handle this old thing."
"I don't believe he'll remain indifferent in the face of death."
Gu Qing said so.
"Oh."
He Ni let out an 'oh' and didn't think much of it, taking a towel with her fair, slender hands and expertly wiping.
She looked at the Calamity Black Dragon, her delicate, arched eyebrows slightly furrowed.
"Haha, how can ignorant ants understand how firm this Venerable One's Dao Heart is?"
"Hm? No, scrubbing?"
"You're letting a Immortal King scrub your back?"
Jun Shengbao was very disdainful of Gu Qing's words.
Which Immortal King hasn't endured countless hardships, their Dao Heart unyielding?
But very quickly, Jun Shengbao's eyes widened.
He couldn't see the scene outside; his divine sense couldn't penetrate the Creation Green Lotus Cauldron.
But hearing Gu Qing tell He Ni to scrub his back, and He Ni responding with an 'oh' like a young wife.
He was completely stunned.
Jun Shengbao deeply understood how terrifying He Ni was.
He felt that He Ni must have the bloodline of an Immortal Emperor, with the potential to become an Immortal Emperor.
How could such a noble and transcendent Immortal King be so obedient to an ant in the Heavenly God Realm?
Jun Shengbao had lived for billions of years, and for the first time, he felt so young, his experience so shallow.
No, perhaps he was just old and couldn't keep up with the times.
He originally thought that Jun Lintian suppressing a child of destiny to be his maid was already the pinnacle of life.
But compared to Gu Qing, Jun Lintian was simply a mere child, not worth a second glance.
Gu Qing said nothing, pouring in immortal essence and refining with all his might.
"Hmph, Gu Qing, you brat, the one who severed this Venerable One's physical body was this woman and Immortal King He Guang, and the one who destroyed this Venerable One's divine soul was this treasure; it has nothing to do with you."
"You, young boy, are too vain, fearful of death, and deeply cunning. With such a character, you will eventually fall to inner demons."
Jun Shengbao remained motionless, even burning his own divine soul, not forgetting to verbally attack Gu Qing before his death.
He wanted to plant the seed of an inner demon in Gu Qing.
In the future, if Gu Qing ever doubted himself, an inner demon would surely arise.
Little did he know, Jun Shengbao's actions actually helped Gu Qing, saving him a lot of time.
Originally, refining Jun Shengbao would have taken at least several years, or even longer.
But with Jun Shengbao's self-dissolution, he only needed an hour to completely obliterate him.
[Congratulations, Host, for successfully slaying the remnant soul of an Immortal King far beyond your cultivation level, you have received the Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, Mystic Heaven Treasure Mirror.]
The Mystic Heaven Treasure Mirror was a supreme treasure leaning towards support and attack, capable of comprehending the Dao, integrating myriad Dao cultivation techniques, and deducing even more profound techniques.
Its Mystic Heaven Divine Light could also cleanse one's foundation, transforming a mortal into an innate divine being, pure and untainted, with a glazed golden body.
The Mystic Heaven Divine Light possessed world-destroying attack power, capable of melting myriad Dao laws.
It was somewhat similar to the World-Destroying Profound Light of the Profound Fire Treasure Mirror.
"What a treasure!" Gu Qing was overjoyed, kissing He Ni on her fragrant lips.
He Ni pursed her lips, her expression unchanged, but her delicate earlobes had turned red.
Gu Qing held her small hand, kissed her first, then drew a prize.
[Congratulations, Host, you have received the Middle Grade Acquired Spiritual Treasure, Moon Essence Pearl.]
Very good, luck is strong, kiss again, draw again.
[Congratulations, Host, you have received the Middle Grade Acquired Spiritual Treasure, Supreme Yang Pearl.]
[Congratulations, Host, you have received the Middle Grade Acquired Spiritual Treasure, Origin Spirit Pearl.]
[Congratulations, Host, you have received the Middle Grade Acquired Spiritual Treasure, Da Luo Ni Chang.]
[Congratulations, Host, you have received the innate spiritual root, pan peach tree.]
[Congratulations, Host, you have received the Low Grade Acquired Spiritual Treasure, Water Spirit Pearl...]
"Phew!"
Finally, the Five Element Pearls were complete.
Gu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, his heart pounding with excitement. With the Five Element Pearls gathered, he could finally upgrade the Hongmeng Ruyi Tower and perfect the myriad Dao laws of the Ruyi Space.
Thinking about it, Gu Qing felt an urge to merge them.
Because this merger would be a complete and thorough integration, including the Xuanhuang Pearl.
At that time, with the derivation of myriad Daos, if he could thoroughly comprehend their profound mysteries, it would be a great fortune.
However, now was not the time for secluded cultivation and comprehension.
Gu Qing resisted, continuing to draw prizes.
This time, he was drawing Jun Lintian's rewards.
[Congratulations, Host, you have received the Chaotic Mother Nest.]
"???"
Gu Qing blinked.
What was a Chaotic Mother Nest?
But anything related to Chaos must be a supreme treasure.
Gu Qing inquired with the system.
[The Chaotic Mother Nest contains the origin of the Chaotic Great Dao. The Host can understand it as a mother nest that nurtures Chaos Demon Gods.]
Gu Qing's excited little heart pounded like an old deer.
He was filled with emotion, the system finally rewarded him with a treasure that could enhance his cultivation.
It wasn't easy.
"By the way, if I use the Chaotic Mother Nest, how many years will I need to refine it? And how much will it boost my strength?" Gu Qing suddenly remembered a crucial question, hoping it wouldn't take billions of years to refine.
[No refining is needed. The Host only needs to sleep within it. The chaotic origin will automatically merge with the Host. It will take at least billions of years, and your strength will likely increase to the Immortal Emperor Realm.]
Billions of years? And that's at least?
Gu Qing's fervent heart felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured over it.
By the time he finished billions of years of secluded cultivation, the oceans would have turned into mulberry fields.
[If the Host feels it is too long, you can also circulate cultivation techniques to refine it, but it will not achieve the desired effect. At most, it can raise you to the Immortal King level, and it will still require millions of years.]
[The Chaotic Mother Nest is very special; it can evolve the Boundless Great Dao. If actively refined, it will lose its Dao origin evolution and become an unchanging Dao origin.]
Gu Qing listened quietly, his heart twisted into knots, conflicted.
Thousands of thoughts raced through his mind; he couldn't comprehend how such a miraculous treasure could exist in the world.
Effort, on the contrary, yielded no results, while lying flat resulted in the supreme Dao Fruit.
This was simply too bizarre.
But then again, a million years was still too long.
In a million years, perhaps he could cultivate to the Immortal King level on his own.
[The Host can refine it with a Dao Companion, or use the Chaotic Mother Nest to nurture magical treasures.]
"Oh? How so?"
[The Host's Hongmeng Ruyi Tower, no matter how many Innate Spirit Treasures it integrates, will still be an innate treasure. It cannot truly undergo a qualitative change and transform into a Chaotic Spiritual Treasure. It can only gain some additional functions and become slightly more powerful.]
[If nurtured with the Chaotic Mother Nest, integrating the chaotic origin, it will advance to a Chaotic Spiritual Treasure.]
"Can it advance to a Chaotic Treasure?" Gu Qing's eyes lit up, and he asked eagerly.
[The Host is dreaming.]
[Chaotic Treasures contain the supreme Great Dao and are the manifestation of the Great Dao. They cannot be refined later. Even if you use a thousand more Chaotic Mother Nests, you still cannot cultivate one.]
[Furthermore, Chaotic Spiritual Treasures also cannot be refined later. The Host's Chaotic Spiritual Treasure was originally refined using a Chaotic Spiritual Treasure, plus other chaotic divine materials, becoming a top-tier spiritual treasure among Chaotic Spiritual Treasures.]
"The Hongmeng Ruyi Tower is a Chaotic Spiritual Treasure?" Gu Qing was dumbfounded.
[No, the Hongmeng Ruyi Tower is quite special. Although it is an innate treasure, it eternally integrates the Great Dao and possesses the ability to evolve autonomously. Theoretically, the Hongmeng Ruyi Tower can be upgraded indefinitely.]
[Additionally, the Dao charm of the Chaotic Mother Nest can nurture Chaos Demon Gods, and naturally, it can also nurture Chaotic Spiritual Treasures.]
"Then..."
[Wait until the Host finds the Great Dao origin. The Great Dao origin itself is a Chaotic Treasure.]
Hearing this, Gu Qing immediately gave up the idea. He suddenly missed Jiang Yu very much and felt a little guilty.
He had asked Jiang Yu for two Chaotic Spiritual Treasures, but he hadn't given Jiang Yu anything in return.
"I'll trouble her less in the future," Gu Qing thought to himself.
[Does the Host want to claim the Chaotic Mother Nest? If claimed, it must be used immediately, otherwise the Chaotic Mother Nest will autonomously merge with heaven and earth. If taken into the Ruyi Space, it will merge with the Ruyi Space.]
[If the Host wants to refine it, it is best to find a place of nothingness to maximize the utilization of the Chaotic Mother Nest.]
Gu Qing's mouth twitched; he was once again speechless by the special nature of the Chaotic Mother Nest.
After some thought, Gu Qing decided to refine it in the Ruyi Space, refining a portion himself and entrusting a portion to the Hongmeng Ruyi Tower for refinement.
He would also bring He Ni along.
This way, a lot of time could be saved.
After all, he really couldn't afford to waste time.
There were many protagonists in this world.
If he really went into seclusion for a million years, and a protagonist became an Immortal Emperor, then it would be all over.
This golden age should be dominated by him. Perhaps one day he would encounter a child of destiny and be able to obtain even rarer treasures.
Therefore, he absolutely could not remain in seclusion for too long.
"What's wrong with you?"
Seeing Gu Qing's fluctuating expression, He Ni asked with concern.
"Nothing, we've hit the jackpot."
Gu Qing held her small hand; He Ni was truly a great treasure.
If he hadn't held He Ni's small hand and kissed her before each draw, he might not have drawn the Chaotic Mother Nest.
Nor would he have drawn so many Middle Grade Acquired Spiritual Treasures.
He might have drawn some cultivation techniques, divine abilities, or refined magical treasures instead.
After all, he had previously drawn rewards from female lead fate, and the rewards varied from good to bad.
Of course, these metaphysical things can't be fully believed.
However, He Ni did allow him to acquire a Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Mystic Heaven Treasure Mirror, for free.
Gu Qing was also very generous, taking out the Moon Glow Pearl, the Supreme Yang Pearl, the Origin Spirit Pearl, and the Soul Severing Blade.
As for the Mystic Heaven Treasure Mirror, he had other uses for it.
“Choose one.”
He Ni’s beautiful eyes widened, and she spoke with some difficulty: “Four… four Innate Spirit Treasures.”
Even though she already knew that Gu Qing possessed countless treasures and many Innate Spirit Treasures.
But she really didn’t expect there to be so many.
Because Innate Spirit Treasures are definitely not common goods; there’s a fixed number, only a little over a hundred thousand in total.
It sounds like a lot, but in reality, spread across the planes of the Eternal Universe, it’s as rare as a drop in the ocean.
And they had long since been divided up by the Primordial Great Gods.
As an Immortal Emperor, she only had one Superior Grade Acquired Spiritual Treasure, the Qiankun Sword.
She had obtained that when she was an Immortal King.
But in Gu Qing’s hands, Innate Spirit Treasures seemed to have become common goods?!
She truly didn't know where Gu Qing’s Innate Spirit Treasures came from.
He Ni secretly shook her head; if she couldn’t figure it out, she wouldn’t think about it.
She hesitated and said, “Are you really giving it to me?”
“Yes, choose one. I don’t need so many; any item is about quality, not quantity.”
Rather than dispersing his energy, it was better to specialize in one path.
Gu Qing only planned to use the Chaotic Undying Halberd and the Creation Green Lotus Cauldron in the future, one for offense and one for defense—perfect.
The profound heaven sword could be kept for performing sword dao divine abilities.
As for how to deal with the extra Innate Spirit Treasures, Gu Qing did not plan to give them to the Hongmeng Ruyi Tower for fusion.
Because not every spiritual treasure is suitable for fusion.
Some special Innate Spirit Treasures would be useless if fused and would instead become a redundant function.
So, it was better to keep them separate and give them to his Dao companions.
Besides his small goals, Gu Qing also had big goals.
If his Dao companions all achieved the Immortal King, or even Immortal Emperor, then he would probably become the public enemy of all male cultivators in the entire universe, right?
“Then… can I have the Soul Severing Blade?”
He Ni’s eyes darted away, her cheeks flushed, and she spoke in a whisper, finding it difficult to articulate.
Middle-grade and upper-grade—there was no need to hesitate.
Although it was only one grade difference, the power and profound mysteries within were worlds apart.
And divine souls were precisely what she was not good at.
If she could comprehend the innate law of the Great Dao of the Soul Severing Blade, her strength would advance further.
“Of course you can.”
Gu Qing pinched the soft flesh of her cheek, his eyes full of smiles.
“You did that on purpose?”
Seeing Gu Qing’s mischievous smile, how could He Ni not guess that Gu Qing already knew she would choose the Soul Severing Blade?
He just deliberately took them out to see her embarrassed expression.
This little scoundrel was probably laughing at her in his heart.
“Cough.”
“Don’t talk nonsense. I’m not you. How would I know what you like?”
Gu Qing coughed lightly, looking serious.
If one ignored his mischievous hand, there would still be some credibility.
“Meeting a little scoundrel like you, I must have committed a great sin in my past life.”
Constantly being teased, He Ni was exasperated and turned away, not wanting to deal with Gu Qing.
Because the more she engaged with Gu Qing, the more energetic he would become; his personality was unusually mischievous.
Her heart was bitter, but she didn’t want to say it.
“Wrong, you smashed countless wooden fish in your past life to meet me.”
Gu Qing pulled her into the bath, expertly undressing her.
“Is that so…?”
“You’re so bad.”
He Ni’s beautiful eyes were hazy, and she stroked his hair with both hands, murmuring.
Actually, she was intelligent and quick-witted.
To have forged her way through thorns and thistles to become an Immortal Emperor, she couldn’t possibly be a naive and clueless innocent.
She had seen countless schemes, human filth, and intrigues.
It was just that she didn’t want to bother herself with trivialities.
She would ponder what she could understand and discard what she couldn’t.
If an enemy could be fought, she would fight; if they could be killed, she would kill.
If not, she would stay away.
Thus, her mind was clear and transparent; the complexities of the world left no trace in her heart.
The purity of her state of mind allowed her cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds, without any bottlenecks, eventually making her a generation’s female Immortal Emperor, peerless in the sword dao.
But… what exactly gave Gu Qing the misconception that she was easy to tease?
Forget it, if she couldn’t figure it out, she wouldn’t think about it… “Master, young miss she…”
Listening to the four beautiful women’s accounts, Immortal King He Guang’s face was so grim it looked like it would drip water.
He had just returned to the Jun Family’s ancestral land and saw everyone’s excited expressions; many people hadn’t even left and were temporarily residing in the Jun Family’s ancestral land.
He knew something bad had happened.
His daughter was going back to her old ways.
He called the four beautiful women to ask, and it was indeed so.
“What a sin, what a sin…”
After a long while, Immortal King He Guang sighed, his face full of worry, pacing in the main hall.
He didn’t know what to do.
Xi Ling’s personality was strong and stubborn; once she decided on something, she would definitely make it a reality, never regretting it even if it meant certain death.
He had strongly tried to stop her back then, but who would have thought that Xi Ling, in a fit of rage, actually truly disbanded her body and entered reincarnation?
If he stopped her this time, Xi Ling would definitely continue to disband her body, and it would be difficult for him to find her again.
But if he didn’t stop her, this was a dead end, with no chance of survival.
After all, how vast was the might of heaven? All living beings, including Immortal Kings, were but ants.
Even the Starry Sacred Mother dared not refine the heavens and earth; how could Xi Ling, a post-natal being, a junior who was merely repeating others’ ideas, possibly succeed?
However, no matter how they persuaded her, using all sorts of methods, they could not dispel Xi Ling’s idea of refining the Eternal Universe.
Immortal King He Guang had accumulated good deeds throughout his life; how did he end up with such a fierce and monstrous daughter?
Sometimes he even wondered if Xi Ling was truly his daughter.
After all, his wife, Qi Xiangyi, was as refined and virtuous as a noble lady, upholding good and punishing evil, a true homemaker.
And he, with noble righteousness in his heart, walked the world with his sword, upholding justice.
Moreover, he had taught countless students for many years, producing many great scholars and sages.
He could be said to have accumulated good deeds throughout his life, a upright gentleman.
He had wondered countless times how he could have such a monstrous daughter?
But Xi Ling was indeed his biological daughter.
And no matter how he taught her, he couldn’t lead Xi Ling onto the right path.
Even though he had already become an Immortal King magnate, dealing with Xi Ling was still a collapse.
“My students are spread throughout the world, but my own family has yielded bitter gourds.”
Immortal King He Guang shook his head and sighed repeatedly, his face full of worry, his brows so furrowed they could pinch a fly to death.
He didn’t object to his daughter’s killing, for which strong cultivator hadn’t emerged from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood?
Although he upheld justice, he also carried a sharp weapon in his heart, viewing all beings as straw dogs, slaughtering the world.
But Xi Ling’s path was clearly unworkable.
“Unbidden sorrow wraps my heart, clouds obscure the moon, the night is deep. Looking to the ends of the earth, finding no path, tears blur my eyes, my emotions uncontrollable.”
Immortal King He Guang wiped his tears with a handkerchief; he had only one precious daughter, and she had already died many times; she could not die again.
The four beautiful women were moved, their beautiful eyes filled with tears: “Master, it is all our incompetence; we failed to guide the young miss properly.”
Xi Ling had been raised by them; failing to guide Xi Ling onto the right path was their negligence.
“Alas, it has nothing to do with you all.” Immortal King He Guang sighed: “If Xi Ling were married and had children, it would be good; having something to care for might suppress the great evil in her heart.”
“Then Master, why not…” Hong Yi hesitated to speak.
If the Sacred Son of Yaoguang couldn’t win over Xi Ling, Gu Qing definitely had hope.
After all, Xi Ling had even allowed Gu Qing to touch her arm, almost being bullied into a pushover; perhaps Gu Qing could suppress Xi Ling.
So she wanted Immortal King He Guang to break off the engagement, but she was ultimately a servant and couldn’t say it directly.
“Improper, improper.”
Immortal King He Guang became even more worried: “When I first met the Sacred Son of Yaoguang, I saw him as gentle as jade, with a graceful demeanor, and his cultivation talent was hailed as the best in the Primordial Star Domain. That’s why I disregarded Xi Ling’s objections and forced the marriage alliance.”
“But who would have thought that the Sacred Son of Yaoguang was merely outwardly splendid but inwardly rotten, a showy but useless embroidered pillow, needlessly wasting several hundred years of my daughter’s prime?”
The more Immortal King He Guang spoke, the angrier he became, exclaiming furiously: “That scoundrel misled me, that scoundrel misled me!”
He had created so many opportunities for the Sacred Son of Yaoguang, yet he still couldn’t make Xi Ling like him.
If he forced Xi Ling, given her decisive and ruthless nature, the consequences would be unimaginable.
“Master, did you not see the communication jade slip?”
“This servant was not talking about the Sacred Son of Yaoguang.”
