Senior Sisters, I Don’t Want To Work Hard Anymore

Chapter 591: Feng Fei Dao Venerable: It's hard for Junior Brother...

The Water Moon Sandalwood Palace, enveloped in divine radiance, swiftly traversed through the chaotic void, instantly traveling billions and trillions of miles away. The countless chaotic storms and tides around it remained as the eternal and unchanging backdrop of the void.

After completing their cultivation with Qing Xuan and Zi Xuan, Qin Muling set off again with many senior and junior sisters. Whenever they arrived at an Earth Level Great World, they would stay there for about fifteen to twenty days, receiving territories and resources, and selecting high-level female cultivators they were interested in to cultivate together. After finishing various matters, they would continue their journey.

Qing Xuan and Zi Xuan were also not idle. Whenever Qin Muling stayed in a certain Great World, they would temporarily return to the Heavenly World and bring back a group of carefully selected high-level female cultivators for Qin Muling to review. As long as he was interested, they could stay.

After careful consideration, Qin Muling instructed the two women to pass on the message to those Saint Venerable powerhouses, indicating that they could take action against the Luo Hou Demon Race.

However... Qin Muling still needed to cultivate in the mortal realm, consolidating his cultivation level as a Primordial Origin Saint, and advancing further before going to the Heavenly World to participate in the battle. They had to figure out a way for the time being.

Of course, this statement was meant to temporarily stabilize those people, so that they wouldn't choose to lie down and give up, and directly run away with their trusted disciples.

Anyway, when their power was almost exhausted, Qin Muling would still go and send them on their way, it was just a matter of dying early or late.

The Saint Venerable powerhouses who were stationed at the Luo Hou Demon Abyss defense line naturally felt very dissatisfied when they received the news. However, they had no choice. They couldn't force a genuine Primordial Origin Saint Supreme to do anything, so they could only reluctantly accept it.

"...The World Creating Azure Lotus's actions are clearly aimed at depleting our power. When the time is right, it will come and reap the benefits. It's truly malicious!" said the Saint Venerable of the late autumn, feeling indignant.

The Saint Venerable of Song Yun sighed, "Indeed, but we have no way to do anything about it. Who made it a Primordial Origin Saint, while we are not?"

The Saint Venerable powerhouses remained silent. In a situation where their strength was inferior, it was useless to say anything. The one with the strongest power had the greatest authority to speak. This was the reality of the Immortal Dao civilization.

"...Alright, let's leave it at that for now! I hope that the World Creating Azure Lotus can keep its word and come to support us as soon as possible!" said the Saint Venerable of Yu Long helplessly.

The Saint Venerable of Dan Yang looked around with a solemn expression and whispered, "Do you think this explanation is reliable? Can the World Creating Azure Lotus really... make further progress? Is there a new supreme realm beyond the Primordial Origin Saint Realm?"

"This...," the Saint Venerable powerhouses looked at each other, and this question really stumped them. Perhaps... there was some truth to it?

"This is too terrifying. Can we find a way to stop it?" someone asked.

Immediately, someone retorted, "How can we stop it? Can mortals snatch food from the mouth of a primordial behemoth?"

The giant powerhouses fell silent again. Now, in front of the World Creating Azure Lotus, they were as fragile as mortals. However, if the World Creating Azure Lotus successfully made further progress, wouldn't it be even more difficult to restrain it in the future? Even if they were fortunate enough to achieve sainthood in the future, they would still be suppressed by the other party and never be able to turn the tables.

Thinking of this bleak and hopeless future, the Saint Venerable powerhouses felt a jealous and blood-boiling sensation, but unfortunately, they had no way to do anything about it now.

Anger without strength was meaningless.

In the end, these people could only blacken their faces and vent all their anger and resentment onto the countless Luo Hou Demon Race in front of them.

...

In the chaotic void, several years passed unknowingly.

Considering the future threat of the Luo Hou Demon Race, Qin Muling has now changed some strategies. He has increased the number of optimized and perfected martial arts scriptures for each Earth Level Great World to three hundred, and at the same time, he has strengthened and improved the defense level of the Heavenly Dao Formation Array.

This approach is naturally to better enhance the overall strength of these Daoist forces, giving them a few more chances to protect themselves in the future catastrophe.

On this day, the Water Moon Sandalwood Palace arrived at the Heavenly Phoenix Great World. This is the territory of the ancient Phoenix clan, and there are many vassal forces guarding their territories in the surrounding void.

The female clan leader, Dao Venerable Feng Fei, who had already received the news, led a group of high-level elders to set up the highest standard of welcoming ceremony to greet the arrival of the World Creating Azure Lotus.

"Little junior brother, I have an unpleasant request. I wonder if junior brother is willing to help?" In the luxurious and extravagant study, this cold and proud, imposing and beautiful woman fed Qin Muling a few sips of spiritual wine and honey, her enchanting jade arm wrapped around his neck, her voice soft and charming.

"What is it? Please tell me." Qin Muling embraced her smooth and tight waist, speaking gently.

Around the desk, incense burners, folding screens, and exquisite curtains, many stunning women of the ancient Phoenix clan stood quietly, each wearing transparent gauze, their seductive and hot bodies fully revealed, their beautiful faces flushed, and their charming eyes filled with allure.

They were all the most outstanding high-level female cultivators in the clan, and they were chosen by Qin Muling, so they were able to serve as his attendants here.

With her purple eyes and blue hair, Dao Venerable Feng Fei kissed him, her glossy and beautiful lips attached to his ear, softly and gently telling him the origin of the matter.

Unlike human cultivators, certain stages of the Phoenix clan's members require specific medicinal resources in their long life span to purify their ancestral bloodline and stimulate their life potential, thereby increasing the probability of awakening their Divine Ability talent.

In addition, the reproduction of ancient divine beast bloodlines like theirs has always been a difficult problem, often taking millions or even tens of millions of years to have a pure-blood descendant born.

Impure bloodlines will greatly affect the future growth limit, and it is likely that one will be stuck at a certain realm for life.

Therefore, the powerful members of the Phoenix clan have been consuming massive resources year after year, researching and refining various Primordial Great Dao Golden Pills in an attempt to solve the problem.

After countless unimaginable years, a considerable number of effective prescriptions and pill formulas have indeed been accumulated, but the difficulty of refining them is generally exaggerated. One careless mistake can lead to failure. Even if successful, the yield is quite scarce and insufficient for use.

In the Three Thousand Earth Level Great World, the territory of the Ancient Phoenix Clan is an Earth Level High Grade Great World, and their overall strength ranks in the top thirty. However, their population is the smallest among the ancient divine beast bloodlines, such as the Heavenly Dragon Race and the Qilin Clan.

One fact that all the high-level members are unwilling to admit is that the overall development trend of the Ancient Phoenix Clan is actually in a slow decline, and they are powerless to reverse it.

That's why Dao Venerable Feng Fei is now trying to ask Qin Muling for help. With his Primordial Origin Saint's Divine Ability, it should not be difficult to solve such a problem.

Qin Muling thought for a moment and asked, "Are these prescriptions and formulas the secrets of your Ancient Phoenix Clan? Can you show them to me?"

Dao Venerable Feng Fei breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Naturally, they are secrets to others, but there is nothing to hide from you, Junior Brother. Take a look!"

Saying that, she carefully took out a scroll of purple jade, shining with spiritual light, and handed it to Qin Muling.

Qin Muling gently unfolded the jade scroll and carefully examined it. The content recorded in the jade scroll was not long, only a total of twelve kinds of secret medicines and seven alchemy formulas. But they all belonged to the level of Primordial Great Dao Golden Pills, indicating their preciousness.

Due to the slow growth and difficult cultivation of the Supreme-level Heavenly Medicine resources used as raw materials, coupled with the extremely high failure rate in alchemy, even a slight mistake would render a precious batch of raw materials useless. Therefore, the experts of the Ancient Phoenix Clan were quite helpless.

Qin Muling silently operated his profound energy and, after a moment, came to a conclusion. He pondered and said, "The effect of these prescriptions is not bad, but there are some flaws, so they cannot be perfect. Are these the only methods available?"

After countless calamities, the high-level members of the Ancient Phoenix Clan must have come up with more than just these few methods. Qin Muling obviously didn't believe it.

The beautiful and stunning Dao Venerable Xue Yan beside him smiled and said, "Junior Brother, don't be surprised. We have come up with thousands of usable prescriptions and formulas, as well as created many corresponding Divine Abilities. However, after generations of trial and error by our clan members, these nineteen are the best in terms of effectiveness and relatively controllable costs. As for the other methods... they have more flaws and risks, so now basically no clan members are willing to try them."

"Is that so?" Qin Muling pondered and said, "Why don't you bring them all out for me to see? Perhaps I can help improve and perfect them."

"No problem." Dao Venerable Feng Fei nodded and immediately signaled a core elder to handle it. In just a moment, the elder returned with piles of jade scrolls from his spatial Law Weapon and presented them all to Qin Muling.

In a short amount of time, Qin Muling finished reading all the classified information and, combined with her understanding of the Phoenix clan's bloodline, basically understood the whole situation.

In simple terms, this is the limitation imposed by the supreme heavenly law system. As beings with immense power and near-infinite lifespans, the ancient Phoenix clan is naturally a privileged group. Therefore, difficulties in producing offspring and the dilution of bloodlines over time are unavoidable problems.

The heavenly law is impartial and does not favor any particular group of beings. For example, the human race, although considered the protagonist of the current era, is made up of ordinary mortals who are weak and have short lifespans, making them vulnerable to any other group's bullying.

Only by embarking on the path of cultivation and growing to the level of a quasi-saint can a human cultivator have an equal conversation with the high-level members of other races.

However, the human race grows and reproduces at an extremely fast rate, with a population size that is unimaginably large and high levels of intelligence and comprehension. Although the proportion of individuals suitable for cultivation is extremely low, the absolute number is among the highest in the heavens and myriad realms.

The Phoenix clan, on the other hand, is different. Their descendants possess immense power from birth, and the purer their bloodline, the stronger their power.

Correspondingly, their reproduction and inheritance are not easy, and the difficulties in producing offspring and increasing the size of the clan are insurmountable. Compared to the despair-inducing scale of the human cultivator population, there is simply no comparison.

"How about it? Junior Brother, what do you think?" Snow Yan Dao Venerable asked with a smile.

Qin Muling looked at them and her expression became slightly complicated. "It can be resolved, but only I can resolve it..."

Feng Fei Dao Venerable blinked her beautiful eyes, then suddenly realized, "Junior Brother, are you saying that we can't overcome these problems on our own?"

Qin Muling nodded and used her divine sense to record eighteen secret medicines and nine pill formulas on a blank jade scroll. This included the methods of preparation and refining, a list of raw materials, and detailed records of the corresponding cultivation techniques.

Feng Fei Dao Venerable received it with a slightly anxious expression and examined it briefly. Her eyes immediately changed.

"With the combination of these methods, we can basically solve the problem of the Phoenix clan's bloodline dilution," Qin Muling said. "It can also reduce the difficulty of reproducing offspring by about seventy percent. As for the difficulty of preparing and refining these secret medicines, it will be reduced by sixty to seventy percent, and the quantity will also increase significantly..."

To be honest, Qin Muling herself was not very satisfied with this level of improvement and optimization. However, without using the power of the Primordial Origin Saint, this was the best she could do.

If Qin Muling personally prepared the medicine and refined the pills, the success rate would be one hundred percent, and she could almost perfectly solve all the problems of the Phoenix clan. But Feng Fei Dao Venerable and the others did not have the same ability.

Therefore, after Qin Muling left, the ancient Phoenix clan could rely on the methods she left behind to change the current situation of the clan's slow decline and experience a certain degree of revival, but it still couldn't compare to the glorious and flourishing era of the ancient times.

"Well, it's really difficult for you, Junior Brother!" Feng Fei Dao Venerable sighed slightly. "To achieve these results is already an unexpected joy for us, and we can't ask for too much."

Qin Muling remained silent for a moment before continuing, "Since I'm here, why not help a little more and refine a batch of pills for you?"

"It would be an honor!" Snow Yan Dao Venerable couldn't help but exclaim with joy. The many high-level elders around them also smiled, as it was a rare opportunity to witness the Primordial Origin Saint personally refining pills.

Feng Fei Dao Venerable stood up gracefully, her eyes shimmering. "In that case, please follow me to the Pill Hall. We'll accompany you there."

After a while, Qin Muling stood in front of a purple-gold pill furnace that was about ten zhang in diameter and over a hundred zhang tall. This Apex Level treasure was enveloped in golden light, with auspicious clouds and purple qi rising, and a faint sound of the Great Dao echoed in the depths of her soul.

According to Feng Fei Dao Venerable, there were two more pill furnaces of the same level, which showed the profound and exaggerated heritage of the ancient Phoenix clan.

"Let's try refining the Ancestral Source True Pill in this first furnace," Qin Muling said. This was a Primordial Great Dao Golden Pill that purified the bloodline and stimulated potential. After her optimization and improvement of the pill formula, the effect had significantly increased, but the difficulty of refining had not decreased by much.

Even if Feng Fei Dao Venerable was included, it was estimated that there were no more than ten Dao Sect masters in the entire Phoenix clan who could refine this Primordial Great Dao Golden Pill.

Dao Venerable Xueyan naturally did not refuse, immediately instructing the Palace Lord Yaqi Daojun to bring the required herbal materials.

The main ingredient of this Primordial Great Dao Golden Pill is twenty-one Supreme-level Heavenly Medicines, supplemented by hundreds of Heavenly Medicines, Divine Medicines, and a small amount of special Innate spirit fluid.

Previously, the supply of these Supreme-level Heavenly Medicines was quite scarce. However, since Qin Muling arrived, the Phoenix Clan had almost unlimited resources, so there was no need to be as meticulous as before.

After a while, Qin Muling received the spatial Law Weapon filled with herbal materials and the jade plaque that controlled the pill furnace from Yaqi Daojun. After a brief inspection, she skillfully performed the spiritual technique.

Immediately, the pill furnace emitted a brilliant divine light, and a vast tide of spiritual energy surged. The intricate and profound array manifestations on the surface of the furnace were activated, and the profound and lively Dao Rhyme spread out.

Although it was her first attempt, Qin Muling's control was precise and accurate, resembling the experienced alchemists who had immersed themselves in this path for hundreds or even thousands of years.

Soon, the five-colored divine flames transformed from the tide of spiritual energy began to burn fiercely. The heavy lid of the furnace slowly lifted, and batches of precious Supreme-level Heavenly Medicines, shining with spiritual light, were continuously added.

Dao Venerable Xueyan, Dao Venerable Fengfei, and many high-level elders of the ancient Phoenix Clan were already seated on the nearby purple jade cushions, chatting leisurely.

In their eyes, with the Primordial Origin Saint Supreme personally refining the pill, there was no possibility of failure. The only thing to consider was the quantity of pills produced in the end.

With a slight movement of Qin Muling's divine sense, profound and obscure spiritual techniques flowed like running water, meticulously handling every detail. Everything was flawless, approaching perfection.

Although the refining of the Primordial Great Dao Golden Pill was time-consuming and not something that could be achieved overnight, the pill furnace had a time acceleration array, and with Qin Muling's Saint-level power, it would only take a few hours to complete the first batch of pills.

As Qin Muling completed the last set of profound and obscure spiritual techniques, the huge pill furnace trembled slightly, and the sound of the Great Dao reverberated in her soul.

Amidst the rich fragrance of medicine, dense purple clouds rose into the sky, forming a large canopy of auspicious clouds that lingered for a long time, accompanied by various phenomena.

"... Is it done? It feels quite simple!"

"That's because of Junior Brother's Saint-level power. Why don't you give it a try? We should be grateful as long as the furnace doesn't explode!"

"Well, I was just saying. It would be great if Junior Brother could always refine pills for us."

"Don't think too much. It's impossible for such a good thing to happen. Otherwise, the sisters from other Great Worlds would cause a commotion. Junior Brother is not exclusive to our family."

"Anyway, as long as we serve Junior Brother well, there should be opportunities for him to help us in the future."

"Perhaps..."

The powerful female cultivators of the Phoenix Clan discussed eagerly, their eyes filled with excitement and anticipation.

After dozens of breaths, when the pill furnace stabilized, Qin Muling manipulated the spiritual technique, and the heavy lid rose again. Brilliant golden light overflowed, and over a thousand dragon-eye-sized, blood-red pills floated in the golden light, emitting a powerful aura.

"So many?"

Dao Venerable Xueyan was both surprised and delighted. Although she didn't doubt Qin Muling's strength, it was still unexpected to be able to refine so many pills in one furnace.

"Unbelievable, Junior Brother is really amazing!"

Dao Venerable Fengfei was equally delighted. Previously, when the alchemists from the Dao Sect of the Phoenix Clan took action, it was considered a pleasant surprise if they could produce more than ten pills in one furnace, let alone the frequent failures.

She took out dozens of specially crafted jade pill bottles and used her Divine Ability to collect all these extremely precious pills, then sealed them.

Dao Venerable Xueyan approached and took one pill to examine it for a moment, nodding in satisfaction. "Hmm, the quality of these pills is quite good. The medicinal effects are more than three times stronger than before. The younger generations in the clan are truly fortunate!"

Previously, due to the scarcity of pills, even the direct blood relatives of the high-level elders had to wait a long time to receive a single ancestral pill. The situation had naturally improved now.

Qin Muling smiled and said, "We still have time. Why don't I refine another batch for you? I'll prepare the pills listed in the prescription for you. It won't be a problem to meet the needs of the next few dozen elemental meetings."
