Qing Xiao sat alone on a round boulder on the altar. Her smooth and fair skin emitted light rays which dispersed the thin mist. They flowed down along the frost that filled the entire altar.
The Celestial Trapping Sword also restrained its red glow and became unadorned.
The light rays made Lingguang feel extra surprised because these light rays contained an indescribable Dao. Only when one had reached her state would be able to understand how precious this ‘Dao’ was.
This was the Way of Taiyin which had existed since the ancient times.
Besides, it could produce the Power of Taiyin at any time which could freeze one’s Primordial Spirit to death. Even if she attained immortality, she could be hurt by this type of terrifying power.


Qing Xiao slowly got up and walked towards Shen Lian.
At this moment, Shen Lian felt peaceful and calm. Because of Taixu Strategy’s Instant Connection, he could deeply feel the changes that had happened on the current Qing Xiao.
Although Qing Xiao was powerful, she was merely just an ice mountain in the sea.
Now that the glacier had melted and turned into water in the sea. Her strength was something that Shen Lian could not tell anymore.
Qing Xiao’s Taixu Divine Qi already completely disappeared and replaced with the finest and purest Power of Taiyin.
When Qing Xiao stopped in front of Shen Lian, his peaceful state of mind was filled with an indescribable bitterness. Because he thought that if the one there was Qing Xiao, did it mean that Ziling vanished?
Ziling and Qing Xiao were equally powerful, but now that Qing Xiao had completed her own cultivation, would there still be room for Ziling?
But he could not hate Qing Xiao, because if any of them were to disappear, he would not feel good.

Shen Lian,
Qing Xiao’s cold and eerie eyes were as captivating as the stars. However, her voice was clear and rich as though it came from the jade stone. Upon hearing it, it would make people feel carefree and calm.
Shen Lian spoke with slight surprise,
Are you Grandmaster Ziling?



Because Qing Xiao’s qualities were totally different from Ziling’s. Their voices also gave an entirely different impression. The person right in front of him, her voice was gentle and warm, it did not sound like Qing Xiao’s voice.
As for Lingguang, she was instantly surprised because she realized one thing. There was actually no air at this place, they should be using their divine thoughts to communicate instead.
However, at this moment, she could not only breathe, but she could also hear, and that was not done through divine thought sensation.
This woman right in front of her could form an independent heaven and earth at her surroundings, as though they were in the mortal realm.
As a woman, she could attain immortality, technically she should be proud and arrogant. However, when she saw this woman right in front of her, she could not help but admire her. She was definitely way better than herself, and this had nothing to do with the cultivation duration.
It was because the difference between the two of them could not be made up with years due to the quality difference.
Initially, Lingguang was already miserable that it was difficult for Guangqing to fight against Qing Xuan. Now she felt even more hopeless because the woman right in front of her was able to eliminate Guangqing on her own as she was already at one level above immortal Zhenren.
Even if she did not enter the state of Tian Xian, it would be more or less the same.
This kind of figure might not be able to find any opponent, except for those few old monsters in the mortal realm.
If she continued to stay in the mortal realm, given time, there might be another Lu Jiuyuan, and Qing Xuan would become another Xuantian Sect. What could be worse than a Xuantian Sect was that Qing Xuan still had Shen Lian, this fortune’s favored child. His potential was unpredictable and he had grown to the extent that even Guangqing was afraid of him.


Shen Lian had no time to take Daoist Nun Lingguang’s thought into consideration. He was looking straight at his grandmaster in front of him.
She looked serious and said,
Are you that eager to see me vanish into thin air?

Her tone was so cold and eerie just like a cold ice blade. Even Lingguang could not help but to shudder.
Shen Lian spoke without the slightest fear,
I hope that both grandmasters could be safe and sound.

The lady gave a soft smile which was as beautiful as the flowers in spring and the moon in autumn. She said,
Shen Lian, you’re very kind, I know you didn’t lie. I’d also benefit if Qing Xiao manages to learn the Boundless Taiyin. Originally, we were mixed with each other’s divine aura. Therefore, even though she used to have the Way of Taiyin, she also has Yang within Yin. The ‘Yang’ is my personal divine aura. Similarly, although I used to have the Way of Taiyang, I also have Yin within Yang and that was her divine aura. Thus, we’ll be entangled for the entire life.
This time she landed the star and there wasn’t any distraction from the Real Fire of the Sun, she could get the nourishment from the Dao rhythm left by Grandmaster Qingshui. Then, she stripped the little Yang within Yin off and finally learned the Boundless Taiyin. As for me, I also got back the little personal divine aura to complement the defects.
She wouldn’t disappear, so would I not. Perhaps after a period of time, we wouldn’t have to be entangled anymore.

Shen Lian got it instantly. What was more important was that if Qing Xiao wanted to reach the real success of entire body and heart, she might have to get the Yin within Yang from Ziling.
Then Ziling should learn the Boundless Taiyang then it would only be possible. It also proved that the two of them did not have to fight a life-or-death battle.
He said,
So, Grandmaster has to refine the Real Fire of the Sun to be the Boundless Taiyang?



Ziling said,
It’s not a bad idea, but not now.

Then she took a look at the Celestial Trapping sword. The sword made a bright and clear sound and left Shen Lian’s body. It flew to the stars right in front and disappeared.
Ziling mumbled to herself for a second and said,
You don’t have to attend to Chen Beidou’s invitation to meet him at Mount Zhong three years later. I can help you to stop him.

Shen Lian felt touched. Although Qing Xiao managed to learn the Boundless Taiyin, he might not be able to escape if he was fighting against Chen Beidou. It was because Chen Beidou was not only scary, but he was also the Master of Celestial Trapping Sword. He fully understood the scariness of the Celestial Trapping Sword.
However, he might have to go against his grandmaster’s consideration and said,
Grandmaster, I’d go to Mount Zhong three years later.

Ziling did not get angry but looking calmly at Shen Lian and continue listening to him.

Three years later, even if the disciple is no match for Chen Beidou, I’d still have the power for self-protection. But I’d need grandmaster to find me three items, which are dust sand of the Universe, true water of the sky and a thousands-of-years-old cold iron,
Shen Lian said slowly.
Ziling said,
Then it’s up to you on how to deal with her.

Lingguang felt sudden tightness in her heart and she finally remembered that her relationship with Qing Xuan was indeed incompatible as water and fire.
Shen Lian grinned,
There’s nobody taking care of grandmaster’s daily life, how about making her your maidservant?



Ziling smiled and said,
Alright.

Lingguang spoke angrily,
Shen Lian, don’t you think you can insult me.

Ziling did not wait until the sudden attack and already stopped Lingguang by making her unconscious.
She definitely understood that Shen Lian did not simply want to get her a maidservant. Shen Lian might have already thought about the future when he wanted her to stay. If the news that Guangqing’s immortal Zhenren became Qing Xuan Fairy Ziling’s maidservant was spread, it would naturally let the entire cultivation community know that Qing Xuan’s status was way higher than Guangqing’s.
If Guangqing was unable to stomach this, they had to go up to Qing Xuan to rescue Lingguang.
By then, the initiative right would be Qing Xuan’s.
Although there would be an immortal Zhenren left and it would seem like a latent trouble, from the perspective of strategic importance, it seemed to be totally worthy. At the same time, it would also manifest Qing Xuan’s great boldness. This should be the atmosphere in four main Daoist sects.
It could also let people acknowledge that there were descendants after Founding Master Yuanqing and Founding Master Qingshui.
