According to the task prompt, Ling Mo Xie quickly arrived at the valley where Kui was known to appear. The surroundings were silent, with not even the sound of birds or insects, indicating the immense deterrent power of Kui.
Ling Mo Xie did not have to wait long. Just as detailed in the task description, when the blazing sun was directly overhead, Kui appeared. It was a wolf-shaped beast, naturally of enormous size. A shake of its fur could whip up a gust of wind, and its eerie green eyes were larger than a human head.
Since Kui was referred to as a beast that posed a threat to the existence of this world, it was certainly not of a good temperament. Upon seeing Ling Mo Xie, it immediately roared without hesitation and lifted its foot to stomp down on him.
At that moment, Ling Mo Xie had almost inherited most of the power of the previous Celestial Venerable. How could such a Kui easily harm him? Ling Mo Xie did not even move his body; he simply extended his hand, and a ball of blue flame appeared, directly enveloping Kui's descending foot.
Kui let out a howl of intense pain and quickly withdrew its foot, rage beginning to show in its eyes.
Ling Mo Xie casually waved his hand to extinguish the flames and murmured, "Is that all there is?"
With a mighty roar, Kui unleashed a sound wave attack that flew toward Ling Mo Xie.
Ling Mo Xie's expression remained unchanged as he moved slightly and suddenly vanished from sight. This was not some kind of invisibility technique but one of the highest spells obtained in this world of inheritance. At that moment, Ling Mo Xie did not exist; he had transformed into the most basic elements that composed this world. In this state, he could not be harmed unless someone possessed world-destroying power.
Clearly, Kui did not have such capability.
With various spells inherited in this world, Ling Mo Xie easily dealt with Kui. At the moment Kui perished, a beam of golden light descended from above, enveloping Ling Mo Xie while Kui's corpse transformed into light and entered his body.
Ling Mo Xie felt his power rapidly increasing once again. His previous cultivation level in the Cultivation World now felt like an insurmountable difference compared to his current state; he could sense that his former cultivation level now allowed him to easily crush countless foes with just a flick of his hand.
At that moment, a voice from the system prompted him: "Congratulations! You have completed ten hidden quests related to chivalry, benevolence, universal love, honor, sincerity... and met the conditions for the trial."
As this voice echoed, Ling Mo Xie realized he could once again feel the presence of the Immortal Master System. Almost simultaneously, the Immortal Master System chimed in with its prompt: "Congratulations! You have completed the trial task. Rewards are being distributed; please receive them."
As the voice fell, Ling Mo Xie was astonished to find that he had unknowingly returned to the Cultivation World. As for the Trial World, he realized he could no longer sense it. He couldn't help but sigh; it seemed that compared to the Celestial Master, he was still too far behind.
At that moment, the Spiritual Energy in the world suddenly fluctuated violently, leaving Ling Mo Xie somewhat confused. Could it be that disaster had already arrived, and the great war between the Celestial Realm, Demon Realm, and Monster Realm had begun to affect the Cultivation World?
What he did not know was that the situation had not yet reached such a critical point. However, at this time, the spiritual energy of the Celestial Realm, the demonic energy of the Demon Realm, and the monster energy of the Monster Realm were all fluctuating simultaneously.
This was due to some of the source power that continuously generated the energy upon which these Cultivators relied being drawn away from the three realms.
Following this fluctuation, even the rules of power in the world began to destabilize. Many Cultivators started to worry about whether something significant had occurred.
As this fluctuation passed, a crystal-clear orb appeared before Ling Mo Xie. He could feel that the energy contained within it was even more powerful than all of his current strength combined.
The orb circled around Ling Mo Xie once before directly entering his heart. In that instant, Ling Mo Xie understood everything.
The reason why the Celestial Master was so powerful was that he was different from other Cultivators. The other Cultivators stole power from heaven and earth to strengthen themselves; ultimately, they still relied on heavenly and earthly power for survival.
In contrast, the Celestial Master inherently controlled the most fundamental forces between heaven and earth. The heavens and earth were under his command, making it impossible for these Cultivators to compare with him.
Because of this, he could be said to share a lifespan with heaven itself; even if heaven and earth were destroyed, he would remain. This long life eventually became unbearable for him, so he stripped away part of his power to create the Immortal Master System, choosing others to replace him while returning the most fundamental powers back to heaven and earth, integrating them into the three realms.
Now, sensing a new Celestial Master emerging, those powers automatically separated from heaven and earth and returned to their rightful places. Only by mastering these powers could Ling Mo Xie truly be considered a Celestial Master.
"Searching and seeking, seeking and searching; everything has simply returned to its origin." After understanding everything, Ling Mo Xie's first words were this vague statement.
However, after saying this, he fell silent, and his body instantly disappeared, returning to Azure Cloud Valley.
At this moment, Ling Mo Xie was almost equivalent to the returning Celestial Master. Wherever he went, flowers bloomed in abundance, birds sang in chorus, and rays of light filled the sky; it was simply ostentatious.
As soon as he arrived, the Azure Cloud Valley Master, who had been reviewing ancient texts and pondering how to salvage the Three Realms if Ling Mo Xie failed, was startled by the commotion outside. He then revealed a smile. Although he didn't know what trials the Celestial Master had faced, he thought it couldn't have been easy. To his surprise, Ling Mo Xie had succeeded.
Despite how effortless Ling Mo Xie's trials seemed, if he hadn't completed those ten Hidden Quests, he would have long since perished. The Celestial Master never intended to make things difficult for his successor in terms of cultivation; what determined success was a test of character—those ten Hidden Quests.
"The Celestial Master has arrived; I apologize for not welcoming you properly!" As the Azure Cloud Valley Master approached the hall's entrance, Ling Mo Xie also arrived and smiled at him.
Ling Mo Xie glanced at him and said, "Old Man, what are you doing? I've completed my Trial; what should we do next?"
"Of course, we need to address the great calamity facing the Three Realms! You should go to the Immortal Realm and see for yourself; the situation is far from optimistic!"
Seeing that Ling Mo Xie had successfully passed his Trial, the Azure Cloud Valley Master felt completely relieved. Although he spoke of an unoptimistic situation, there was a faint smile on his face, showing no signs of panic.
Ling Mo Xie nodded without saying much more. With a flicker of his body, he vanished from sight. After dealing with matters in the Three Realms, there was something else he needed to do—something he must do now that he had the ability.
This was Ling Mo Xie's first visit to the Immortal Realm. He had originally imagined that since it was the Immortal Realm, it would surely be extraordinarily beautiful and like a fairyland.
However, the scene before him was nothing like that. The land was cracked, rivers were dry, and distant booming sounds echoed—clearly the sounds of fierce battles.
Ling Mo Xie's divine sense spread out and almost instantly revealed all conditions in the Immortal Realm. It was indeed dire; one-third of the entire Immortal Realm was engulfed in demonic energy, while another third was filled with monstrous energy. At this moment, it seemed that the Celestial Emperors of the Immortal Realm had set aside their grudges to defend their realm together, but they had only managed to protect one-third of the central area of the Immortal Realm.
Moreover, the only three Celestial Emperors that Ling Mo Xie sensed were present; the remaining one had already vanished from this world—not dead, but completely dispersed.
After sensing the situation in the realms of demons and monsters, Ling Mo Xie directly summoned Chen Yan. Without time for pleasantries, he said, "Chen Yan, you must have felt it too. The Three Realms are in chaos, even the heavens and earth are affected. If this continues, cultivators will become extinct. You are the son of the Ancestral Dragon; it should be easy for you to make the demon realm retreat, right?"
Chen Yan sensed a feeling reminiscent of the last great calamity and nodded decisively. The outcome of that previous disaster still sent shivers down its spine, and naturally, it did not want such a thing to happen again.
"What about the Demon Realm..." Chen Yan hesitated for a moment and asked Ling Mo Xie.
"Don't forget who I am now!" Ling Mo Xie replied with a smile.
Chen Yan was taken aback and then laughed, "Haha, then I really hit the jackpot by holding onto such a powerful thigh!"
"Enough with the jokes; go take care of it. I’ll handle the matters in the Demon Realm," Ling Mo Xie said with a playful glare before disappearing again. When he reappeared, he was already at the battlefield where celestial and demonic forces clashed.
The battle had been ongoing for an unknown amount of time. When Ling Mo Xie arrived, he saw corpses strewn across the ground. His adoptive father was also present, commanding celestial cultivators in battle while facing a formidable demon commanding from the opposite side.
"Southern Celestial Emperor, hand over that item! Otherwise, do you really want to see the Celestial Realm disappear? At that point, you would be the sinner of the Celestial Realm!" The demon leader did not forget to admonish Ling Liyun.
Ling Liyun felt a pang of bitterness in his heart. When he obtained that item, he knew it might bring trouble but never expected it would implicate the entire Celestial Realm. The temptation of being a Celestial Master was too great; as a Celestial Master, one was not only revered in the Celestial Realm but also unparalleled among the Three Realms and Six Paths!
"Sorry, he can't produce it; I've already recognized it as mine," Ling Liyun did not speak up, but Ling Mo Xie suddenly appeared to answer for him.
"Who is this young brat claiming ownership? Well then, killing you will solve everything!" The demon leader clearly lacked insight and spoke harshly to Ling Mo Xie.
Ling Mo Xie was in a hurry to resurrect Eastern Princess and did not want to say much to him. He pushed forward with his palm, seemingly weak, but the Demon was caught off guard, unable to react in time. When he regained his senses, he realized that he and his demon army were actually in the Demon Realm.
"This... this..." the Demon stammered in shock.
"This time, the chaos between the demon and monster realms has been instigated. I have already sealed off your passage to the Celestial Realm. The Celestial Realm itself also bears the sin of harboring treasures, so I won't punish you further," Ling Mo Xie's calm voice echoed through the three realms.
The Demon Realm was relatively fine; the leading Dragon King, being a junior of Chen Yan, had been persuaded back to the Demon Realm early on. Otherwise, he would have also been pushed back by Ling Mo Xie.
Looking at Ling Liyun, who gazed at him with a complex expression, Ling Mo Xie smiled. He was unsure whether this father was his own or the previous Ling Mo Xie's. In the end, he still called out "father."
Ling Liyun was somewhat excited and laughed heartily, saying, "Haha! My choice back then was not wrong; my son is more accomplished than I am!"
Ling Mo Xie smiled and replied, "It's all thanks to you, father. However, because of this matter, it has caused chaos in the Celestial Realm. You can deal with this mess yourself; I have important things to attend to."
Hearing Ling Mo Xie's words, Ling Liyun just smiled proudly and said, "So what? My son is a Celestial Master. Who would dare to make things difficult for me? Haha! I am indeed incredibly wise!"
Ling Mo Xie felt speechless after their conversation and left. He needed to resurrect Eastern Princess, and the items required for resurrection were located in a black hole known as Fallen Land. Even he could not discern anything within it, and the information about that place in the Immortal Master System was scarce. It was a place not controlled by any Celestial Master.
Thus, Ling Mo Xie set off once again on an unknown path with Chen Yan, Hong Chi, and others.
(THE END)
