Chapter 1915
In the void, a figure in a black dress stood silently.
Qiu Zixian had returned at some point, and her aura was much more restrained than it had been two months ago—the demonic patterns on her black robe had disappeared into the fabric, and only the occasional flash of demonic light in her eyes revealed traces of her demonic cultivation.
Standing beneath a sky full of stars, her black robe fluttering in the night breeze, she exuded an ethereal and aloof air.
"mysterious……"
Upon seeing Chen Xuan's figure, Qiu Zixian could no longer suppress the longing in her heart.
The two-month trial of inheritance greatly increased her strength, but it also made her worry about Chen Xuan day and night. Ignoring her shyness, she transformed into a black shadow and rushed straight into Chen Xuan's arms.
Chen Xuan reached out and caught her, feeling the soft, warm flesh in his arms. Qiu Zixian's figure was already extremely graceful, and now, nestled in his arms, she was as soft as a ball of cotton, and even her breath carried a delicate warmth.
The two embraced tightly in the void, without speaking. Only the night breeze brushed past their ears, carrying the coolness of the stars, making this moment of tranquility all the more precious.
After a long while, Qiu Zixian slowly raised her head, her eyes filled with excitement: "Chen Xuan, the inheritance of these two months was too important! My understanding of the three paths of demonic cultivation has deepened by more than one level. It seems... I have finally found my own path to the Great Dao!"
As she spoke, she flipped her hand over, and a palm-sized celestial palace appeared in her palm.
The immortal abode was entirely black, carved with ferocious demonic patterns. Two stone dragons coiled at the gate, spewing black mist, exuding an evil yet majestic aura: "I have gained the approval of the spirit of this immortal abode. My master also said that this immortal abode will belong to me from now on."
As she finished speaking, her voice lowered, tinged with sadness: "But... Master's demonic primordial spirit has been annihilated as the Immortal Abode was unsealed and refined."
Chen Xuan gently patted her back and said softly, "Master said long ago that he cultivated the demonic primordial spirit only to make up for the deficiencies in his original Dao. Now that he is approaching the Immortal King realm, the role of the primordial spirit is becoming less and less important. Passing this opportunity on to you is the best outcome for him."
Qiu Zixian nodded, and when she mentioned Lanxing Zhenxian, her eyes showed more gratitude and awe—no longer the cold and distant person she had been at the beginning.
“A hundred years isn’t a long time for us, but if you want to defeat Xia Jiuyou in the Holy Land Ranking Battle, you must go all out during this hundred years.” Chen Xuan cupped her cheeks, his tone tinged with worry. “You know, if you lose, Xia Jiuyou will merge with you again, and then…”
“I know the consequences.” Qiu Zixian interrupted him, her eyes hardening. “I will not lose, and I will not lose you.”
The two landed hand in hand on the open ground in front of the Northern Underworld Immortal Mansion. Qiu Zixian was about to turn around and go to her cave to cultivate in seclusion when Chen Xuan grabbed her wrist.
"What's wrong?" Qiu Zixian turned around in confusion.
Chen Xuan looked at her with a hint of anticipation in his eyes: "How about... you cultivate here in my Northern Underworld Immortal Abode from now on? That way we can see each other more often."
Qiu Zixian's cheeks flushed instantly. She lowered her head and softly hummed in agreement, her ear tips turning pink.
The moment Qiu Zixian stepped into the Northern Underworld Immortal Palace, she was stunned by the sight before her—
Within the Immortal Abode World, the spiritual energy was so dense that it was almost tangible. On the golden summit of Tangwu Mountain in the distance, a huge Li Huo Medicine Cauldron was suspended in mid-air. Ancient flame runes were engraved on the cauldron, revealing the vicissitudes of time. It was clear at a glance that it was not a magic weapon of this era.
What alarmed her even more was the octagonal ten-story tower standing next to the golden roof—the tower was made of black crystal, and each floor was engraved with a different Great Dao array. In particular, the ninth and tenth floors faintly exuded the pressure of Immortal Kings and God Kings, causing her to subconsciously hold her breath.
"This...this tower is?" Qiu Zixian pointed at the octagonal, ten-tiered tower, her voice trembling slightly.
"That's the trial tower I crafted. Yu'er and the others go in there to hone their combat skills whenever they have free time," Chen Xuan explained casually, pulling her into the residence in the backyard of the Golden Summit.
As soon as Qiu Zixian stepped into the small house, she saw a transparent ice coffin placed in the center of the room. The coffin was made of millennia-old ice, crystal clear, and one could clearly see a peerless female corpse dressed in black lying inside.
Witch - Yun Yao
Chen Xuan raised his hand and waved it, and the lid of the Xuanbing coffin slowly flew up. A rich magical aura instantly spread out—that aura was several times stronger than Qiu Zixian's own magical aura, carrying a bit of cold stillness, and making the whole room glow with a faint black halo.
Qiu Zixian's pupils constricted as she stared intently at the woman in the ice coffin: "This... so young, yet she has cultivated the Illusionary Demon Dao to such a level? Who is she?"
