Chapter 218: Bai Nianyun’s Secret

The goal of cultivating the Divine Power realm was to imprint one’s Essence Soul on the particle space, the ‘tiny point,’ and the numerous ‘light dots’ that orbited the ‘tiny point.’ Once imprinted, the particle space would undergo a transformation.

According to the information he inherited, one’s Essence Soul couldn’t observe the particle space before reaching the Divine Power realm. The particle space was like a desert that naturally grew.

Just observing the particle space caused it to change. After imprinting one’s Essence Soul on the particle space, the particle space would undergo a qualitative change. From then on, his control over his body would reach an unimaginable level. After all, even his Essence Soul had been imprinted on the ‘tiny point,’ the ‘light dots,’ and the particle space. Thus, his control over his body would naturally far exceed the past.

This process was named “Unification of the Spirit and Body.” After the countless particle spaces had been cultivated to perfection, one would gain divine powers!

Phew.

Meng Chuan opened his eyes. He had used up all the Quintessential Essence he recovered with Scarlet Blood Divine Pills. He couldn’t continue cultivating with an empty dantian.

I’ve been cultivating my particle spaces for more than half a year. My body is transforming every day.

Meng Chuan could feel his physical strength increasing. Originally, his physical strength was on par with his Great Solar Quintessential Essence, but his physical strength became superior to his Great Solar Quintessential Essence as he kept cultivating the particle spaces…

According to the manual, once he mastered the Divine Power realm, his physical strength would be slightly inferior to a Marquis Godfiend’s Quintessential Essence. His strength would be comparable to a fourth Firmament demon monarch’s physical strength!

However, a Divine Power realm expert would still be slightly inferior to Marquis Godfiends because they didn’t have a Darkstar domain. Without a Darkstar domain, they were much weaker than Marquis Godfiends. Therefore, the manual referred to Divine Power realm experts as half-step Marquis Godfiends.

If he reached the Undying realm, he could suppress Marquis Godfiends completely.

I’ll probably be able to master the Divine Power realm in two months. I wonder what divine powers I’ll gain.

Meng Chuan looked forward to it.

…

In terms of prosperity, the Black Sand Dynasty was in no way inferior to the Great Zhou Dynasty. In terms of dealing with demons, Black Sand Dynasty was doing better than the Great Zhou Dynasty because they had King White Treasure!

Black Sand Dynasty, Tang State Capital.

“Miss.” A gray-robed elder respectfully placed a scroll on the table in front of a cyan-robed woman.

The cyan-robed woman nodded slightly. “You can leave now.”

“There’s information from the Great Zhou,” reminded the gray-robed elder softly before retreating.

The cyan-robed woman’s eyes lit up as she immediately flipped through the dossier. An intelligence report laid in the middle of the thick dossier. The cyan-robed woman read it. “Last year’s 13th September, Liu Qiyue gave birth to a son and daughter. Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue’s current residence is unknown. They should be located in the Great Zhou Dynasty’s southeastern regions.”

He has children?

The cyan-robed woman’s hands trembled slightly as her eyes reddened. A joyful smile blossomed on her face.

Chuan’er has children? A son and a daughter? I have grandchildren? What are their names? What do they look like? I-I have to find them… No, I don’t even know where they are.

For a moment, her heart was in a mess.

The cyan-robed woman took a deep breath.

I have to bear with it. I’ve endured for so many years. I’ll bear with it a little longer. Once I’m exposed, I’ll be in big trouble.

In the intelligence report, she couldn’t find the location of Meng Chuan and his wife’s residence. If she had, she might’ve secretly visited her grandson and granddaughter.

Crackle…

The intelligence report in the cyan-robed woman’s hand turned to dust.

“Miss, Marquis Martial Yang wishes to see you. He said that there’s something important.” The gray-robed elder’s voice sounded from outside.

“Something important?” The cyan-robed woman frowned slightly. “Let him in.” The cyan-robed woman continued reading the rest of the dossier.

Soon, an extraordinary man walked in. He smiled and said, “Sister Nianyun…”

“Oh?” The cyan-robed woman frowned. “Marquis Martial Yang, please watch your words.”

“Holy Maiden.” Marquis Martial Yang corrected himself with a smile. “We’ve known each other since we were young. There’s no need to be so polite.”

“Marquis Martial Yang, feel free to speak,” said the cyan-robed woman.

“I’ve just mastered one of the 36 secret arts of our Halberd Hall. I’m in a good mood, so I came to share my success with Sister Nianyun,” said Marquis Martial Yang with a smile. “Do you know which secret art I’ve mastered?”

The cyan-robed woman indifferently said, “I don’t wish to know. Marquis Martial Yang, you know Grand Yin Hall has its rules. You should leave quickly and not disturb my peace. Also… don’t call me Sister Nianyun.”

Marquis Martial Yang frowned but still smiled. “Alright, alright. I won’t disturb your cultivation any longer.”

With that said, Marquis Martial Yang left.

…

That night.

Marquis Martial Yang and a young man were drinking together.

“Brother Weiyan,” said Marquis Martial Yang. “Tell me. Your sister and I have known each other since we were young. Your sister was chosen to enter Grand Yin Holy Hall when she was young, and I was eventually able to enter Halberd Holy Hall. Your sister is one of five Holy Maidens of Grand Yin Holy Hall, but anyone with a bit of insight knows that although your sister is a Marquis Godfiend, she is still ranked low amongst the five Holy Maidens… There is only one person that can become Grand Yin Holy Hall Master. Your sister will eventually be married.

“According to the rules of our Black Sand Grotto-Heaven, the Holy Maidens of Grand Yin Holy Hall typically marry Halberd Holy Hall’s Godfiends. This is because our two cultivation systems complement each other, allowing our strength to improve greatly. Thus, isn’t it good for her to marry me in the future? I have never slighted her, but she has never cared about me.” Marquis Martial Yang drank his wine in agony.

“Out of the five Holy Maidens of Grand Yin Holy Hall, you ended up eyeing my sister?” asked the young man beside him as he drank. “Marquis Martial Yang, take my advice as a friend—give her up!”

“Why should I give up?” Marquis Martial Yang was furious.

The two strongest Holy Maidens of Grand Yin Holy Hall were fighting for the position of hall master. They had no interest in romantic relationships. Two other Holy Maidens had already found partners. They would marry immediately once the Grand Yin Holy Hall Master was determined.

Only Bai Nianyun had no hope of becoming hall master, nor was she willing to delve into romantic relationships.

“When I saw your sister when I was young, I was certain that I would marry her.” Marquis Martial Yang gritted his teeth.

“Actually, my sister already has someone. You…” said the young man as he drank. The moment he spoke, his expression changed.

“She has someone?” Marquis Martial Yang stared at the young man.

The young man realized that he had slipped up. He immediately said with a smile, “Pretend you didn’t hear that.”

“What do you mean by that? I heard you.” Marquis Martial Yang glared. “What happened? Brother Weiyan, we’ve been friends for so many years. You have to tell me honestly. Don’t keep me in the dark.”

The young man hesitated.

“I’ll use the mystic technique of Halberd Holy Hall to refine an Earth-level divine armament for you. Didn’t you want a soft sword? I’ll help you forge it,” said Marquis Martial Yang. “That should be enough, right?”

“I’m telling you this because I don’t want you to continue wasting your time like this.” In a low voice, the young man said, “When my sister was young, she went down the mountain to gain experience. For some reason, she was blind enough to take fancy to a mortal. She had a child. After her training ended, she returned to Black Sand Grotto-Heaven. When she returned, Grand Yin Holy Hall’s elders realized that my sister was no longer a virgin at a glance. She had no right to inherit the position as hall master.”

“She was not punished despite losing her virginity?” Marquis Martial Yang was in disbelief. “She’s still a Holy Maiden of Grand Yin Holy Hall?”

“Punish her? Who would dare?” The youth glared at him. “It’s rare for our Bai family to have a genius. Who would dare to punish her? Matriarch Yaoyue is still around! Who would dare to be impudent?”

Marquis Martial Yang fell silent.

Bai Yaoyue was a Creation Supremacy! She controlled the entire Black Sand Grotto-Heaven.

“So what if my sister can’t become Grand Yin Holy Hall Master? Now, she has become a Marquis Godfiend. Apart from the matriarch, my Bai family only has three Marquis Godfiends! My sister is the youngest. The matriarch still thinks highly of my sister,” said the young man.

“Although it’s embarrassing if the rumors about my sister spread, it’s just that—embarrassment. I’m telling you only because of our years of friendship. Don’t spread the news. You will only suffer if you spread it.”

“I wouldn’t dare. How would I dare? Matriarch Yaoyue will probably smack me to death,” said Marquis Martial Yang immediately.

One reason he wanted to marry Bai Nianyun was because Grand Yin Holy Hall’s and Halberd Holy Hall’s cultivation systems complemented each other. Marrying Bai Nianyun would be of great help to his strength. The other reason why he wanted to marry Bai Nianyun was because of her background. If Matriarch Yaoyue favored him, he would gain many benefits in the future.

It was just like how Meng Chuan received a phoenix feather because Supremacy Qin Wu favored him.

“Enough. Don’t forget that soft sword of mine.” The youth stood up and laughed.

“Who is the mortal your sister married?” asked Marquis Martial Yang. “Don’t worry. Your soft sword will definitely be forged within half a year.”

“That mortal is from the Great Zhou Dynasty’s Eastcalm Prefecture. His name is Meng Dajiang. I wonder what my sister was thinking. She fell in love with a mortal and even had a son,” said the youth as he shook his head.

He left Marquis Martial Yang alone. It was only after his sister became a Marquis Godfiend and had earned Matriarch Yaoyue’s favor that he dared to tell others about this matter. Otherwise, it was impossible for him to 'slip up.”
