Chapter 67: Divine Ability

Above the sky, a silver-hued star streaked across the ice-blue firmament.

Qi Yalan and Qin Muling stood side by side on the flying sword, with a thin and flexible light curtain emanating from the sword body, firmly blocking the incoming fierce gusts of cold wind.

At this moment, Qin Muling held onto his senior sister's smooth and tight waist. Although his hand was somewhat restless, always wandering and exploring, this was a behavior that his hand liked on its own, and had nothing to do with Qin Muling himself. He assured himself of this and felt justified in doing so.

Deep within his sea of consciousness, as his cultivation broke through the Infant Formation stage, the Innate Primordial Spirit Seed underwent another change. The second Azure Lotus leaf phantom had completely manifested and stabilized, emitting a clear and radiant light, full of spiritual brilliance.

More chaotic spiritual lights separated and emanated from the Azure Lotus phantom, swirling and flying around the mysterious seed, leaving behind faint traces of light. Each point of chaotic spiritual light contained a hint of profound and mysterious Dao rhyme, silently merging into Qin Muling's soul and physical body, continuously enhancing his innate talent and potential.

With the appearance of the second Azure Lotus leaf phantom, Qin Muling awakened a new Divine Ability. Within a radius of thirty miles centered around himself, all hidden techniques, Divine Abilities, formations, prohibitions, witchcraft curses, and traps would be unable to escape his talent. Whether they were living beings or Law Weapon puppets, they could not avoid his perception and insight.

Qin Muling pondered for a moment and understood that this ability was extraordinarily terrifying, especially when traveling outside, exploring ancient relics, immortal caves, and dangerous places. With this ability, he could preemptively avoid all dangerous prohibitions and ensure his own safety to the greatest extent.

"Sister Lan, where are we going now?"

"To the depths of the Eastern Ocean. Last time I came here, I discovered a mysterious medicinal mountain on a large island. There is likely to be mature divine medicine inside, and not just one."

Qi Yalan said, "At that time, I had just overcome a great tribulation of the heart demon, and my cultivation was not strong enough. After barely breaking through the first formation, my mana was exhausted and I was unable to go deeper. I could only regretfully give up. With your help this time, little junior brother, we should not return empty-handed, right?"

"Divine medicine? That's definitely worth a look!"

Qin Muling was also somewhat tempted. Only those that had grown for over a hundred thousand years could be classified as divine medicine. With his senior sister's current cultivation realm, the significance of spiritual medicine was already minimal. At the very least, it would require resources at the level of saintly medicine to have an effect on her. If it was divine medicine, it would be even more ideal.

"By the way, are there any heavenly medicine resources in the Illusory Mist Secret Realm?" Qin Muling suddenly asked.

"There should... be?" Qi Yalan's tone carried a hint of uncertainty. "I've heard some rumors about this before. It is said that cultivators from a certain sect were fortunate enough to find heavenly medicine, and the rumors were quite convincing. Unfortunately, no one has ever seen the actual thing. But even if it is true, it must be hidden and kept secret, without any leaks."

Qin Muling nodded in agreement. A genuine heavenly medicine would require at least a million years of undisturbed growth to mature. In the current Extreme Void Starry Sky, it was already a legendary existence. The official statement was that all heavenly medicines had become extinct, and even the oldest and most powerful sects could no longer find their traces. The actual situation was unknown.

However, before entering the Illusory Mist Secret Realm, Qin Muling had discussed this issue with his master, Mu Yinghua, and learned that heavenly medicines should still exist in the Extreme Void Starry Sky. However, those who possessed them were all renowned and powerful forces. Not to mention outsiders, even most of the influential elders did not necessarily have the qualifications to see them.

When Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace was established, there were heavenly medicines growing in the Grotto-Heaven secret realm, and there was more than one. Unfortunately, they withered later due to various reasons.

With the vastness of the Illusory Mist Secret Realm, filled with natural treasures and countless opportunities, as well as many mysterious unexplored areas, it was theoretically possible for heavenly medicines to exist.

As for whether they could be found, and if found, whether they could be successfully harvested, that was another matter.

"Can we go to those desolate areas to take a look?" Qin Muling asked.

"It's impossible," Qi Yalan instinctively rejected, then slowed down her tone. "It's not impossible, but the risks are too great. The more opportunities there are, the more Great Monsters and various dangerous areas generated by the natural evolution of heaven and earth there will be. Even with the cultivation of our sect's leader, it would be difficult to come back unscathed. We can't easily take risks now."

Qin Muling smiled and said, "That's not necessarily true. Many times, opportunities are not obtained through brute force."

Qi Yalan pondered for a moment and said, "You're not wrong, but I don't dare to take you on an adventure alone. Let's wait for Senior Sister to come."

Qin Muling pondered for a moment and informed the third senior sister about his newly acquired talent. She listened with shining eyes and excitement.

"So, Junior Brother, you still have such means? That makes things easier! After picking the divine medicine, let's go to the Weak Water Galaxy. There are many good things there, but unfortunately, the formation restrictions are treacherous and have killed many cultivators in the past. Later, no one dared to try."

Qin Muling nodded. If he wanted to gain as many benefits as possible, he could only go to places where others dared not go. After all, the rewards of pioneering were the greatest.

After several hours, the spiritual energy of the water in the space gradually became dense, and a faint smell of the sea filled the air. The coastline below had turned into a black shadow at the edge of the field of vision, and as far as the eye could see, there was nothing but dark blue sea water, rolling waves endlessly.

Qin Muling felt a surge of energy and the abundant water spiritual energy gathered and converged. After being absorbed and refined by the Azure Lotus phantom in his sea of consciousness, it feedbacked traces of the Dao of Water, integrating into his divine soul.

From time to time, huge unnamed seabirds and flying exotic beasts swiftly passed by from a distance. In the depths of the sea, faint shadows of gigantic sea creatures could be seen, exuding a dangerous aura.

Qi Yalan's expression became serious. She took out a bone talisman and activated it, concealing their presence. There were countless formidable characters in the deep sea, and many powerful beings she didn't want to provoke.

Flying at high speed all the way, even with Qi Yalan's current cultivation, they flew for a day and a night. A large island, tens of thousands of miles long and shaped like a willow leaf, finally appeared on the horizon.

"We've arrived, let's go down."

Qi Yalan said excitedly. She had only discovered this place with great difficulty last time, but due to her lack of strength, she could only watch the rare spiritual medicines and treasures in the Medicine Mountain with envy. Now, with the help of Junior Brother's unparalleled luck, they shouldn't return empty-handed.

As they approached the landing, Qin Muling sensed something and his voice became solemn. "It seems that other cultivators have already arrived, and there are quite a few of them. Hmm, it seems that there are even Great Monsters lurking in the shadows."

Qi Yalan's expression turned cold. "In that case, we can only consider clearing the area first!"

In situations like this, reasoning was never effective, only action spoke.

Qin Muling's divine sense quietly extended, instantly determining the number of cultivators lurking here. There were a total of 479 people, mostly human cultivators with cultivations ranging from the Perfected Being Realm to the Destiny Realm. There were also six cultivators in the Immortal Transformation Realm, belonging to different forces. It might be possible to consider defeating them one by one later.

As for the Great Monsters hiding in the distance, their numbers were not many, but their cultivations were formidable. Some of them even surpassed the third senior sister.

Of course, Qin Muling wasn't too worried. The natural formation restrictions in the Medicine Mountain were complex and unpredictable. If they really started a fight, it was entirely feasible to counter them using the advantage of the terrain.

The distance to the ground was getting closer and closer. In Qin Muling's perception, a faint glow enveloped the entire island, filled with a pure aura, indicating that this place was already within the alert range of the formation restrictions.

Without any warning, dozens of sword lights soared into the air from the ground, flying towards the two of them. Following closely behind were various dazzling Law Weapons, and in mid-air, various thunderous Divine Abilities began to brew.

"They're attacking without saying a word? I thought they would at least say a few words!"

Qi Yalan coldly smiled, and sharp sword energy appeared all around her, suddenly splitting into thousands of frost-like sword qi, covering the sky like a torrential rain. At the same time, a bright golden light spread out, protecting her and Qin Muling within it.

After a moment, screams rang out one after another. Those cultivators who had launched sneak attacks were all killed cleanly by Qi Yalan.

To be continued at night.
