Chapter 505

Heaven Outside Heaven, the Thirty-Second Heaven.

Heaven Outside Heaven

Thirty-Second Heaven

This place is situated beneath the Thirty-Third Heaven, one level above the Thirty-First Heaven and one level below the Thirty-Third Heaven.

Thirty-Third Heaven

Thirty-First Heaven

Well, getting back to the point, the spiritual aura density of the Thirty-Second Heaven is second only to that of the Thirty-Third Heaven, and it has also given rise to many super major powers that were once at their peak.

However, in this era there is no present Immortal Emperor presiding here, but there is a force that all cultivators of Heaven Outside Heaven must take seriously: the Immortal Surveillance Pavilion.

Immortal Surveillance Pavilion

In the name of Heaven, to monitor all immortals, this is the Immortal Surveillance Pavilion.

Immortal Surveillance Pavilion

This... sigh! What's with this list...

list

Pavilion Elder, are you sure you want to release this Heaven's Pride List?

Pavilion Elder

Heaven's Pride List

Of course, that is his intention.

- No named.

Push him into the spotlight; the tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind.

- No named.

In the heavily guarded forbidden land of the Immortal Surveillance Pavilion, a stooped, elderly figure spoke in a deep voice.

Immortal Surveillance Pavilion

forbidden land

I know what to do, Pavilion Elder.

Pavilion Elder

Um, right, notify the Upper Three Dao Regions to recall all inspectors.

Upper Three Dao Regions

Inspectors

They've all been recalled? Pavilion Elder, what are we calling them back for? Are we no longer managing that side?

Pavilion Elder

What for? Cultivation, rest, wife and kids on a warm kang, then watch a show.

- No named.

A good show is about to begin.

- No named.

The next morning, the dawn's light pierced the darkness, and brilliant immortal light once again illuminated the entire Heavenly Universe Great World.

Heavenly Universe Great World

For many cultivators, this is just an ordinary day, day after day, year after year, even in the Immortal Realm.

Immortal Realm

In the Canggu Dao Region, the Wind and Cloud Mountain Range, a graceful figure appeared in the void: 'Is this the Wind and Cloud Mountain Range? The immortal spiritual energy around it is surprisingly dense!'

Canggu Dao Region

Wind and Cloud Mountain Range

The Azure Cloud Sect should be just ahead.

Azure Cloud Sect

The visitor was none other than Mu Yunying, the Heavenly Cloud Peak Master of the Upper Ji Immortal Palace. She looked down at her attire and said, 'No, this peak must disguise itself.'

Upper Ji Immortal Palace

Heavenly Cloud Peak

Mu Yunying

this peak

With a thought, her elaborate robe flowing with Dao rhythms changed into a plain simple dress, and the exquisite immortal ornaments on her head were all taken away.

- No named.

Her entire demeanor changed drastically, from a noble immortal among emperors to a neighborly girl, her aura completely concealed as if she were an ordinary mortal.

immortal among emperors

This should do it.

- No named.

After doing all that, Mu Yunying's figure flickered and disappeared from the spot; when she reappeared, she was at the courtyard of the Azure Cloud Sect on Ascending Cloud Immortal Mountain.

Azure Cloud Sect Courtyard

She and the Black Emperor stared at each other, locked in a standoff for a full two and a half minutes.

Black Emperor

Sir, why are you staring at me? I... I might get shy.

- No named.

If cultivators of Heaven Outside Heaven saw the female killing god, the Heavenly Cloud Peak Master, in this guise, they would surely doubt their existence!

Is this the ruthless God Master who blasted through five heavens in one breath??

But there's nothing to be done; Mu Yunying is also helpless, having just arrived here, she's been eyed by that little black dog... uh, little fierce beast.

little black dog

little fierce beast

Others still call it Black Emperor, but I can't just attack it directly, can I?

Black Emperor

Looking around, there are indeed two God Master Realm beings guarding the gate, just as Elder Zhuo said.

God Master Realm

Elder Zhuo

Strange, could it be that I, the Emperor, have mis sensed?

Emperor

The Black Emperor withdrew his gaze in confusion; upon first seeing this little girl, he faintly sensed a trace of terrifying aura, but upon looking again, it was gone.

Black Emperor

Better to kill by mistake than to let go; otherwise, tie her up and send her to the sect master's residence... no, hand her over to the wise and mighty sect master for disposal.

Sect Master

wise and mighty

Sect Master

Ahem, Your Majesty asks, little girl, what brings you to our Azure Cloud Abode?

Emperor

Azure Cloud

Azure Cloud Abode

Little girl? According to age, this peak could be your great-grandmother! No, this peak is not a fierce beast!

this peak

Although she felt a warm anger in her heart, Mu Yunying calmly said, 'Sir, I have heard of the great name of our Azure Cloud Immortal Sect, which has been thunderous to the ears, so I have come specifically to pay a visit.'

Azure Cloud Immortal Sect

Not bad, not bad, you little girl are quite proper, but if you want to visit my Azure Cloud, you have to queue.

Azure Cloud

Queue? Why must we queue?

- No named.

Mu Yunying paused her actions, following the Black Emperor's gaze, and saw that the queue on the other side stretched all the way to the end of the mountain range.

Black Emperor

mountain range

「……」

- No.

When I came, I traveled too fast and didn't notice the situation here...

- No.

Alright! This peak will queue!

this peak

She had made up her mind, but just as she was about to move, the Black Emperor called out: 'Wait!'

Black Emperor

Sir, what else do you have?

- No.

What? Did you forget something? Who visits without bringing a gift?

- No.

The Black Emperor's gaze grew stranger; this is definitely purposeful, or perhaps it's best to promptly report to the sect master.

Black Emperor

Sect Master

Oh oh, the little lady was in a hurry and forgot this.

- No.

Mu Yunying reacted quickly, hastily pulling a spatial immortal ring from her pocket and handing it over.

Space Immortal Ring

Fine, go queue.

- No.

After Mu Yunying's figure departed, the Black Emperor summoned Ao Yuan and the Ancient Demon Ancestor, the two demons, saying: 'You two keep an eye on that little girl.'

Ao Yuan

Ancient Demon Ancestor

two demons

They didn't ask further: 'Yes, Black Emperor.'

Black Emperor

The disguise is good, but in my Emperor's eyes it's full of loopholes.

Emperor

A cold light flashed in the Black Emperor's eyes.

Black Emperor

Take this spatial immortal ring, for example—it's clearly a high-grade immortal treasure; how could someone with an aura like a mortal casually produce it?

Space Immortal Ring

immortal treasure

Heh! Little girl, you cannot escape my Emperor's divine eyes; I have already seen through you!

【Mu Yunying, Cultivation: God Master Realm Ninefold Great Perfection (Quasi-Immortal Emperor)】

【The Master of the Heavenly Cloud Immortal Peak of the Upper Ji Immortal Palace in Heaven Outside Heaven, whose cultivation is profoundly deep, temperament fiery and protective of disciples, who once blasted through five heavens for a disciple in one breath, yet has an excellent nature, clearly understanding principles and paying special attention to cause and effect.】

Heaven Outside Heaven, Upper Ji Immortal Palace?

Upper Ji Immortal Palace

Hah, lately my Qingyun has really been lively, people from Heaven Outside Heaven have all come, and it's even a quasi-Immortal Emperor.

But what is her purpose? Looking at her like this, she doesn't seem to have much malice.

In the Qingyun Immortal Palace, Feng Qingyang frowned slightly; as soon as this Tianyun Peak Master set foot on Ascending Cloud Immortal Mountain, I noticed her.

Although the breath concealment technique used is extremely skillful, it cannot possibly escape our sect's Heaven-Obliterating Divine Eyes.

Sect Master! I've discovered a suspicious person! She is highly suspect!

At this moment, the Black Emperor's divine sense transmission rang out, his voice filled with excitement and delight.

Merit achieved! The Emperor has earned merit again! Now I can go out and play with my elder brother for a few days!

Feng Qingyang merely replied with a single word: 'Hmm.'

Outside the gate, the Black Emperor's excited mood immediately calmed down; indeed, the Sect Master should have known long ago.

Don't act rashly for now; see what she intends to do.

Besides, I'll give you three days off.

Hearing about the leave, the Black Emperor almost jumped up with excitement: 'Long live the Sect Master! Wait, that's not cursing the Sect Master, is it? Long life to the Sect Master!'

Waiting and waiting~ Mu Yunying has been waiting and waiting~

Speaking of which, this is still her first time experiencing the feeling of queuing……

After all, with her status as the Tianyun Peak Master of the Shangji Immortal Palace, she has always been an honored guest wherever she went.

This truly is a first-time occurrence!

Sir, sir, I am the Grand Elder of the Tianling Sect, here specially to pay respects to the Immortal Sect.

Supreme, I am the Immortal Lord of the Yanhuo Immortal Dynasty, here specially to pay respects to the Immortal Sect.

Adoptive father! I am……

The Black Emperor's eye twitched; this form of address is getting stranger and stranger—why does everyone keep calling me their adoptive father?

Alright, alright, go on in.

Remember, you may only pay respects in the outer area; otherwise, you bear the consequences.

Yes, yes, thank you, sir!

The Black Emperor inspected one after another of those coming to offer wealth… cough… well… they are actually friendly forces coming to pay respects to his Qingyun.

An elder was about to enter when the Black Emperor grabbed him: 'Wait, hold on a moment.'

Sir… sir, what else is there?

Don't you know what's going on? Your Splitting Blade Sect sent two billion immortal crystals, right? That's only fit for offering at the gate.

Let me put it this way: I may not know who gave the heavy gift, but I am perfectly clear about who gave the light one!

Two billion immortal crystals? Not even for a dog… wait, it's for the Emperor, and the Emperor doesn't want it!

After the little interlude, the line continued; unknowingly, three and a half hours later…… Finally! Finally it was Mu Yunying's turn!

Three and a half hours straight! Do you know how I spent those three and a half hours? Do you know!

It seems… it hasn't actually been that long; every time I go into seclusion, it starts at ten thousand years.

It's you, little girl; your welcoming gift is quite precious, the Emperor has a deep impression of it—go on in.

The Black Emperor gave her a meaningful glance.

Better behave; otherwise, even if you get in, getting out will be difficult.

Hmm, okay… okay.

Mu Yunying nodded; she had realized she had revealed a flaw—know that the spatial immortal ring she had casually taken out earlier was of God Sovereign grade!

So, should I enter Qingyun or not…

After a brief contemplation of three breaths, she made up her mind to enter! The cause and effect must be clarified, otherwise her Dao heart would not be at peace.

Hiss! The immortal spiritual energy here is so rich! It's actually several times richer than that of the Shangji Immortal Palace—how is this possible!

Hiss! Is this really a sect of the Canggu Dao Domain? Even at its peak, an Immortal Emperor's forces would be no more than this!

After entering the Qingyun Sect, Mu Yunying was stunned just like Liu Laolao entering the Grand View Garden!

The immortal spiritual energy is so dense it condenses into rain and mist—moreover, this isn't even the core of Qingyun, just the outskirts!

Mu Yunying gazed at the faintly visible Heaven-Reaching Immortal Peak in the void ahead; this peak must be the main peak of Qingyun, and its immortal spiritual energy is absolutely even richer.

She wanted to keep looking into the distance, but felt a pang of palpitations and hastily withdrew her gaze.

This should be a warning to herself.

She couldn't dwell on it; better to quickly clarify the cause and effect of the little disciple.

Suddenly her eyes lit up: 'Young friend, please stay.'

Are you calling me?

Clad in an outer sect disciple's robe, Jini Titanium Magnesium pointed at himself in confusion.

Yes, it's you.

I observe that young friend, your foundation is extraordinary, your talent is superb; you must be a genius disciple of Qingyun, right?

Mu Yunying glanced at the young man ahead; his cultivation as a third-level Golden Immortal is not bad, as for his bone age…… thirty-six??

As a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, she saw through Jini Titanium Magnesium's foundation and cultivation at a glance, utterly astonished!

A thirty-six-year-old Golden Immortal? Have you got it wrong!

Even her own fallen little disciple Hongxiao, famed as the first heavenly pride of Saint Li, only reached Golden Immortal after a sixty-year cycle!

I, a genius…?

Jini Tai Mei again pointed at himself in bewilderment—no easy feat! In this sect where cutthroat competition runs rampant, someone actually calls me a genius! She really… I'm dying!

Cough cough! Actually, with my talent I really can't be called a genius.

He is still quite humble, at least having some self-awareness.

Called… can't be called?

Mu Yunying thought this young man before her was far too humble!

I observe, little friend, your bone age is only thirty-six, yet you have already reached the Golden Immortal realm— isn't that worthy of being called a heavenly pride?

Jini Tai Mei shook his head: 'Not worthy.'

You must know I am merely an outer door disciple of the sect; above me are the senior brothers on the inner door heaven's pride list, the core senior brothers, the ranked senior brothers, the Sect Master's personally transmitted disciples, and our sect's Dao Son.

In the inner door it's hard to stand out; in the outer door they vie for the dragon's head!

Although I demoted myself from inner door to outer door, I am first on the outer door heaven's pride list, and the resources I receive are no worse than when I was an ordinary inner-door disciple.

Simply delightful!

What are you saying? Little friend, your talent in the Azure Cloud Sect is merely that of an outer door disciple?

Mu Yunying began to doubt life; the Azure Cloud Sect not only has boundlessly strong experts, but even its disciples are so monstrous?

So that's it, uh... little friend, may I ask you a few questions? Don't worry, I guarantee I won't let you leak sect secrets.

Upon hearing that, Jini Tai Mei hesitated, rubbing his hands as he said: 'Well... well, that's not impossible, but we need to add...'

'I understand, I understand,' Mu Yunying thought, and a spatial ring appeared in her hand: 'Little friend, take this; consider it payment.'

Oh my, you're being so formal; I'm always happy to help, so since you insist on giving, I'll reluctantly accept.

Jini Tai Mei happily accepted the proffered spatial immortal ring: 'Go ahead and ask.'

You just said your sect's Dao Son has heaven-defying talent, far surpassing yours; I wonder how his talent is?

You mean our Dao Son? His talent is insanely strong! Though younger than me, he's already at the late stage of the Sovereign Immortal realm, and I heard he's recently in seclusion, apparently about to break through again.

'Hiss!' Mu Yunying's handsome face twitched; another breakthrough? This talent is simply heaven-defying!

Alright, second question: wasn't your sect the one that destroyed the Shengli Shenchao not long ago? Why exactly? I'm really curious.

Well, let me tell you, definitely don't believe the outside rumors; they're pure bullshit!

It started because the Heavenly Radiant God Lord of Shengli brought his little nephew, namely the Ninth Prince of Shengli, to flaunt his might on our Azure Cloud territory.

He even arrogantly mocked several of our Azure Cloud gate guardians... protectors, how could we tolerate that? Our sect's senior crushed them with a single palm.

You know what happened next, right? Shengli Shenchao dared to issue the Slay Cloud Order despite their lack of strength, and our sect's Sword Immortal of Wine senior wiped them out with a single sword and wine gourd.

Mu Yunying nodded in sudden realization; the truth was indeed thus.

My little disciple's character is indeed lacking; I've long taught him: beyond immortals there are immortals, beyond heavens there are heavens, beyond heavens beyond heavens there are immortals beyond immortals.

Moreover, that Shengli Shenchao is just as arrogantly self-important, a frog in a well viewing the sky; its destruction was well deserved!
