The Destion Martial and me God arrived at the edge of the Great Barren Well.
"Hmm? He''s not here?" The Destion Marshal furrowed her brow.
"He''s gone to the secondyer," the me God replied, his hand stroking his fiery beard.
The firstyer containing Defying Heaven grade destion was just within sight, but the secondyer remained shrouded from sight.
"He''s not in the Third Baptism Realm, but he dove straight into the Heaven Sealingyer? He''s got guts."
Thinking back to Moon Fairy''s earlier <em>revenge</em> on Lin Daiyuan, a wry smile slipped out from the corner of the Destion Marshal''s mouth. "I thought he was well-behaved. But it seems like we''ve brought in quite the troublemaker."
It was quite the misjudgement!
?ι══????????══ι?
Within the Sealing Heavenyer of the Great Barren Well, Moon Fairy wasn''t in any rush to absorb any destion. In fact, he had quite a bit still stored up in the Immortal Asylum.After entering the First Baptism Realm, he''d broken through from the Early stage to the Establishment stage without a chance to catch his breath.
He was just here for a look!
"They say it''s just a well, but in truth, it''s a volcano of destion beneath the earth! Magnificent!"
Before Moon Fairy, various attributes of destion, such as fire, frost, ice, thunder, water, and wind, roared and shed. No non-demon would dare to enter here!
To others, this ce was a veritable hell.
"I won''t becking in destion anytime soon; I''ll consolidate my cultivation first, then cross another tribtion before entering again."
He had no ns of stealing any destion; firstly because it wasn''t necessary; and secondly because there was still plenty of destion oil unused within the Immortal Asylum.
Having experienced the Heaven Sealingyer firsthand, Moon Fairy was about to leave. But then, he suddenly heard a noise.
"Hmm?" The Nian had lost its nose, yet its sense of smell remained, saying, "That direction!"
"What are you so eager for?" the Yaksha Ancestor scoffed at the Nian.
"None of your business."
"You pathetic mutt, currying favor with him just to suppress me? Indeed, a mutt is a mutt, groveling as usual, always seeking to please its master," the Yaksha Ancestor sneered.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Fuck you, monkey butt!" the Nian retorted.
As they bickered, Moon Fairy moved through the vast tempest of destion.
<em>BUZZ! </em>Ahead, fierce mes roared!
From all directions came five types of deste fire, converging into a swirling five-colored sea that encircled the scene!
At the heart of this fiery maelstrom, a beast struggled!
The beast, entangled with the colorful inferno, clearly possessed formidable strength and a deep affinity with the destion, as evidenced by the tumult around it.
Its roars echoed, pained and persistent! From its state and cries, it was clear the beast suffered greatly, wrestling with the relentless assault.
The five-colored mes surged into its body, scorching it entirely, visibly spiraling out of control.
Being a demon, Moon Fairy understood; the beast was likely undergoing a perilous absorption of destion, its physical form nearly overwhelmed!
Without hesitation or knowledge of the beast''s identity, he approached.
<em>BUZZ! </em>Channeling the Will of Divine Destion, his body became like a vortex, drawing the chaotic tempest of mes explosively toward him.
The spectacle mirrored a giant whale drawing in water!
Before long, the structure of the five-colored maelstrom unraveled under Moon Fairy''s suction power, copsing and dispersing!
And so, the beast engulfed by the inferno was liberated, its cries abruptly ceasing.
The deste mes dispersed!
"Who are you?"
Suddenly, a sweet, soft voice chimed from not far away.
Moon Fairy calmed himself and looked toward the source. There, amidst the fading glow, a dazzling five-colored qilin tilted its head, its round eyes wide with curiosity, staring at him.
Its head tilted left, then right, much like a colorful little cat, undeniably adorable.
"A five-colored qilin?" Moon Fairy instantly recognized her identity.
"You must be the Marshal''s daughter. I''m Moon Fairy. I just arrived at the Marshal''s Base today."
"Moon Fairy!" The five-colored qilin''s eyes lit up at the name, and she bounded over excitedly, circling him like a yful pup, eximing, "I heard about it, you saved the Reincarnation Wick! I heard you wereing to the Marshal''s Base and was just about toe find you to y!"
Her spirited demeanor was indeed charming.
"Such cute fox ears!"
Unexpectedly, she found Moon Fairy adorable too, even daring to lick his ear with her tongue.
"Can I call you Moon Bro?" the little qilin asked, tongue lolling out, her face full of hope.
"Of course, and what should I call you?" Moon Fairy inquired.
"My nickname is Qiqi, but my full name is Qi Qiqi. You can call me Sweetie Qiqi!" the little qilin said with a squinting smile.
"Qiqi..." Moon Fairy decided to just go with the safest option. He didn''t want the Destion Marshal to think he was a scoundrel preying on her daughter. "By the way, everyone''s off celebrating, howe you''re alone here?"
Qi Qiqi looked down, her voice tinged with woe, "I stayed to meet you."
"What happened just now? Why didn''t you call for help?" he asked.
He figured there must be a way to summon aid in the training camp.
Qi Qiqi replied meekly, "I wanted to break through in one go, to surprise my mom. So, I tried to hold on. But it became too much, and just as I was about to use the Fire Token to call Grandpa me, I identally dropped it! Then things really got out of hand!"
"..." Moon Fairy stared at her, speechless. He thought a girl raised in a military base would be a lot less clumsy!
"Luckily you came, Moon Bro, you saved my life! Oh, I''m so moved!" The little qilin nuzzled up close, resting her head against Moon Fairy''s chest, affectionately rubbing against him...
"It''s no big deal, really," Moon Fairy replied, trying to keep her at arm''s length. Though now a beast, she was also a demon, capable of shape-shifting!
"Let''s head out, your mother''s waiting outside," he suggested.
"Moon bro..." Qi Qiqi cooed, "Can you promise me one thing?"
"Go ahead."
"Don''t tell my mother or Grandpa me about what just happened, just say I lost the Fire Token," she pleaded pitifully. Clearly, she feared losing face. It was evident, despite her carelessness, she still wanted to prove herself.
"No problem." Moon Fairy nodded.
"That''s great!" Qi Qiqi leaped up joyfully. "This will be our little secret," she winked, her eyes shimmering in five colors.
"Mhmm…"
With that agreement, the two ascended from the Sealing Heavenyer, and with a loud boom, emerged together from the Great Barren Well.
"Mom, mom, mooom~!"
The little qilin sprang from the well towards the Destion Marshal.
<em>BUZZ! </em>At this moment, amidst shes of five-colored light, the qilin transformed into a young girl with hair of five hues.
She appeared about 14 years old, and just from her delicate silhouette, one could imagine her blossoming beauty—pure and radiant, the epitome of youthful grace.
"Mom, I''ve made friends with Moon Bro," the girl said after embracing her mother and turning around.
Indeed, she resembled the Destion Marshal but was younger, sunnier, and charmingly cute, with soft, glowing skin and a lithe, robust figure, her bright five-colored eyes sparkling.
Most importantly, her smile was beautiful—a smile that could make anyone return it without thinking, irresistibly warm.
"Uh, we just happened to meet," Moon Fairy said.
"Oh?" The Destion Marshal nced at Moon Fairy, perhaps recalling what he had done to Lin Daiyuan, then back at her innocent daughter…
A sudden tightness gripped her heart, and she shot Moon Fairy a warning look.
He immediately took the hint, nodding slightly, and choosing silence.
Seeing the young man''s wise reaction, the Destion Marshal then smiled at Qi Qiqi, "That''s wonderful, congrattions on making a new friend."
"Yeah, I like Moon Bro a lot!"
Though Qi Qiqi was in human form, she was still a child at heart, her expressions devoid of any hidden meaning.
Fortunately, she didn''t rush to hug him again; that might have been too hard to exin.
"Teacher, I''m entrusting these two children to you," the Destion Marshal said.
The me God maintained his cool indifference. "Leave them here, I''ll take care of them."
Watching these young lives, the Destion Marshal was filled with profound emotions.
"Marshal." Just then, a white-haired elder entered, speaking softly, "The King is here, waiting for you in the Southern Hall."
Upon hearing this, the Destion Marshal''s fleeting smile vanished, her face seeming to plunge into icy depths. Her gaze was cold, struggling... much like Lin Daiyuan''s had been moments before.
"Dad''s here? I want to go too!" Qi Qiqi said eagerly upon hearing the news.
"You are not going!" the Destion Marshal barked, startling the young girl.
"Aw… I''m not allowed to see him again..." Qi Qiqi pouted.
The Destion Marshal ignored her and turned to leave, her demeanor more that of a warrior heading into battle than a wife meeting her husband.
"So annoying!" Qi Qiqi sat on the ground, her mood visibly soured.
"If you two have nothing else to do, read this book," said the me God as he tossed them a thick tome.
Moon Fairy recognized it as the volume on various Cmity Sources.
This was the fourth and final volume, detailing the rarest and most violent of all Cmity Sources, those that could <em>bury the heavens</em> themselves.
"Qiqi, shall we read it together?" Moon Fairy suggested. He couldn''t talk about her parents'' affairs, but he could help her shift her mood.
"Okay, Moon Bro!" Qi Qiqi''s inherently joyful nature quickly shone through, and she soon forgot the earlier upset. Together with Moon Fairy, they sat like two innocent kids, absorbed in the book.
"Burying Heaven grade Cmity Sources, I wonder when I''ll get to use one! I really want it..." Qi Qiqi pouted.
Moon Fairy nced at her profile, her longshes, colorful eyes, and the innocence within them... She seemed like a treasure of the world, pure and pristine.
"No need to rush, you''re still young," Moon Fairy said.
"Aren''t you young too?" Qi Qiqi huffed, then turned to the first page of the tome, reading with relish. "Though we can''t use it yet, it''s essential to understand it beforehand. Otherwise, choosing the wrong Cmity Source could spell big trouble. At best, all our efforts would be wasted; at worst, it could cost us our lives!"
Moon Fairyughed. "Who would be so foolish as to choose the wrong Cmity Source?"
"There are plenty!"
Qi Qiqi pointed at the Cmity Source on the page. "See this one? Looks ordinary, right? in and unremarkable, but it''s actually an Upper Burying Heaven grade Cmity Source, meant only for those daring enough to try and be a Boundless Immortal. It''s called the Three Lives Samsara. Some idiots have failed to recognize its value and used it as if it were a Heaven Sealing grade, only to end up exploding into dust once they consume it."
"Haha, how could someone be so stu..." Moon Fairy chuckled, then focused on the illustration of the Cmity Source. Then, his face immediately paled. "Huh…?"
"Moon Bro, what''s wrong?" Qi Qiqi asked curiously.
"N-no, no, nonono!!" Moon Fairy rubbed his eyes, staring intensely at the illustration.
"What''s the matter? I didn’t call you an idiot…" Qi Qiqi bit her lip.
"AHH, CRAP!" Moon Fairy suddenly stood up. "Isn''t that the thing I took from the Diva as a service fee!?"
?ι══????????══ι?
Far away in the Extreme Yin Celestial Realm, within the Carfree Pce, a young man in white was digging at his mouth, yelling to the devil girl beside him, "Quick, help me dig it out, save me…!"
