56: The Sea of Primordial Spirit: Jiang Lingxue's Abnormality!
"What kind of existence is the Imperial Son? Unless the Holy Land faces life and death, the Old Man will not leave seclusion."
The Ye Family Patriarch shook his head.
The next moment, he felt Ye Tianlan's icy gaze, so he quickly changed his tune: "However, Second Ancestor is far-sighted and prepares for potential danger. We do indeed have other plans to see if we can eliminate that brat."
"Oh?"
Ye Tianlan raised an eyebrow: "Tell me."
"Reporting to Second Ancestor, the plan is as follows."
The Ye Family Patriarch immediately recounted his plan in detail: "We plan to use the Holy Son Coronation Ceremony, which is in a little over a month..."
...Time slowly passed, and in the blink of an eye, a day was gone.
Setting aside the Ye Family's conspiracy, at this moment on the Enlightenment Platform, Jiang Lingxue's aura suddenly surged.
Under the influence of that profound Concept from when Gu Qingchen reached Dao Xuan Great Perfection, she finally made further progress and successfully broke through to the second level of the Dao-Peeking Realm!
And Huang Liner followed closely behind.
Under the influence of this Breakthrough aura, in just three short hours, she broke through the barrier of the Dao-Peeking Realm and arrived at the first level of the Dao-Peeking Realm!
In just two days, the cultivation of the three of them had seen considerable Breakthroughs.
"Master is actually still in Epiphany. Could it be that he plans to break through to the Dao-Peeking Realm in one go?"
Huang Liner awoke after breaking through to the Dao-Peeking Realm.
Then she discovered that Gu Qingchen and Jiang Lingxue were still immersed in enlightenment.
And their Domains were now completely indistinguishable, as if they had been a single Domain from the very beginning.
"My Domain also has Yin and Yang attributes, why can't it merge into Master's Domain?"
Huang Liner frowned.
She was a little unhappy.
Logically, the connection between her and Master should be the closest, yet she was now losing out to another woman.
"Is it because I merged my Domain with my innate Divine Ability, which is why it cannot merge into Master's Domain?"
This was the only reasonable explanation she could think of.
Because her innate Divine Ability was a Domain-type ability like the Huang Tian Houtu Great Barrier, she merged the two after condensing her Domain in the Dao Profound Realm.
This way, the combined power of the two would be stronger, even evolving into manifestations of the Heavenly Immortal Weapon and the Houtu Nether Soldiers.
But if the price of becoming stronger was the inability to merge her Domain into Master's Domain, thus losing to this Saintess named Jiang Lingxue, that was not what she wanted.
"Perhaps I can try to separate my Domain and my innate Divine Ability again."
...While Huang Liner was pondering, new changes had already appeared with Gu Qingchen and Jiang Lingxue.
When Jiang Lingxue's strength broke through and the two Domains completely merged without distinction, she felt the surrounding space shift, and she arrived in an incomparably vast Universe!
This Universe was entirely dark, with light emanating only from the center.
"Where is this?"
Jiang Lingxue came to her senses: "Wasn't I on the Preaching Platform enlightening with Junior Brother Qingchen?"
Although she had arrived in a completely unfamiliar space, she did not panic.
On the contrary, she quickly calmed down and began analyzing her situation.
"My current state... seems to be the Primordial Spirit state?"
Soon, Jiang Lingxue noticed something was wrong.
Her entire body emitted a faint glimmer, and her perception of her surroundings was much clearer; she was clearly existing in the state of her Primordial Spirit.
"This space... looks very much like someone's Sea of Primordial Spirit?"
Realizing this, Jiang Lingxue felt a sense of caution arise in her heart.
Unknowingly, her Primordial Spirit had entered an unfamiliar Sea of Primordial Spirit; this was definitely a dangerous signal!
After all, for any cultivator, the Primordial Spirit was incomparably important.
And with her current cultivation, her Primordial Spirit was extremely fragile once separated from her Physical Body.
"Before this, I was enlightening with Junior Brother Qingchen, and even our Domains merged. Perhaps this is an aberration caused by the Domain Fusion? In that case, am I currently in Junior Brother Qingchen's Sea of Primordial Spirit?"
Realizing this, Jiang Lingxue felt somewhat relieved, but she still did not completely let down her guard.
This was all just her speculation; although she was highly confident, she still could not afford to be careless.
Jiang Lingxue tried many methods but could not leave this Sea of Primordial Spirit.
Finally, she decided not to sit idly by any longer and began flying toward the only place of light.
..."Hmm?"
Gu Qingchen, who was in enlightenment, suddenly sensed something.
He sank his consciousness into the Sea of Primordial Spirit and immediately discovered that there was actually an outsider in his Sea of Primordial Spirit.
"Who is this? How could they enter my Sea of Primordial Spirit without me noticing?"
He had set up layers of defenses around his Sea of Primordial Spirit; even a Supreme could not spy on it, let alone enter it.
Even if he was immersed in enlightenment and might have had a slight lapse, it shouldn't be to the extent that someone could barge into his Sea of Primordial Spirit before he even noticed.
"Is this... Senior Sister Jiang Lingxue?"
In his Sea of Primordial Spirit, Gu Qingchen had absolute home-field advantage, and he recognized the identity of this Primordial Spirit at a glance.
At the same time, he had a strange feeling.
It was as if Jiang Lingxue had become his subordinate; he could even control her Primordial Spirit now!
"What is going on? Is this a change resulting from the Domain Fusion?"
Gu Qingchen also guessed this point.
With a thought, he transported Jiang Lingxue, who was at the edge of the Sea of Primordial Spirit, to his side.
"Junior Brother Qingchen, it really is you!"
The moment the two met in the Sea of Primordial Spirit, before Gu Qingchen could speak, Jiang Lingxue became joyful.
Only upon seeing Gu Qingchen did she completely let down her guard.
"En."
Gu Qingchen nodded: "Senior Sister, why have you appeared in my Sea of Primordial Spirit?"
"I don't know."
Jiang Lingxue glanced at Gu Qingchen, and her heart stirred, causing her to quickly look away.
She thought somewhat guiltily: "Why do I feel a strange attraction emanating from Junior Brother?"
Both of them were in the state of their Primordial Spirits at this time, emitting a faint glow, looking like deities, possessing an extraordinary charm.
Gu Qingchen also felt something unusual about himself.
The Jiang Lingxue before him seemed like a perfect Incarnation, stirring his emotions somewhat.
But his state of mind was powerful, and he could still resist this strange feeling.
Jiang Lingxue, however, was not doing so well.
Although her state of mind was extraordinary, the strange feeling in her heart was almost ten times stronger than Gu Qingchen's!
Coupled with the fact that she already had a good impression of Gu Qingchen, she couldn't help but move closer.
"Senior Sister Ling Xue?"
Seeing that Senior Sister Jiang Lingxue's usually clear, indifferent, and even somewhat world-weary eyes now resembled a pool of spring water, Gu Qingchen knew something was off.
"Junior Brother Qingchen, what are you thinking about right now?"
Jiang Lingxue reached out and linked arms with Gu Qingchen. A flush of crimson appeared on her face, which was usually as bright as an icy wheel.
This...
It seemed even more wrong.
