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

Chapter 7: The Vanished History

The night was as calm as water.

The protective formation of the mountain range flickered with a faint glow, faithfully guarding the safety of the sect. The hundreds of peaks were silent, and occasionally, one could see streaks of light swiftly passing by. Those were the inner disciples who were on duty at night.

At this quiet moment of the night, the elder disciples who had nothing to do were mostly busy cultivating, while the maids and servants without cultivation were mostly already asleep.

At this moment, on the surface of the Fengge Peak, everything seemed normal, but in reality, all the protective formations had been activated. The reason given to the outside world was that the senior sister was in seclusion and should not be disturbed.

"The Nine Spirit Yuanqing Sect, the Palace of Calamitous Fate, the Jade Drop Divine Temple, the Bright Moon Sword Sect, the Jade Pearl Star Palace... These are all super forces in the Daoist world, also known as Supreme-level forces, which are naturally incompatible with the forces of those monsters and demons..."

Xue Bingxuan, sitting upright behind the green jade table, looked calm. She opened her red lips and explained the origins of many major forces in this timeline.

In addition to the Daoist sects and the Buddhist sect, which were based on billions of human beings, the forces of the other races in this timeline were also not to be underestimated. The Beast Race, the Demon Race, the Witch Clan, the Ghost Clan, the Sea Clan, as well as some rare and strange creatures, and the descendants of ancient divine beasts, each formed their own factions, dominating a corner of the vast and boundless starry sky.

In terms of the size of the intelligent races, the human race was undoubtedly the overlord. The number of humans was terrifying, even if all the other intelligent races were added together, they would not be able to match one ten-millionth of the human population.

However, when it came to individual strength, the human race was undoubtedly at the bottom. Even a low-level demon or an untransformed little monster could pose a fatal threat to an ordinary person. Unless they obtained a cultivation method and embarked on the path of cultivation, they would be unable to resist.

Due to the exaggerated number of ordinary humans, there were naturally countless geniuses suitable for cultivation, providing a constant stream of fresh blood for the human Daoist tradition. This made their strength and influence grow day by day, gradually forming a strategic advantage over the other races.

After the super Daoist tradition, there were various powerful figures in the world, such as immortal legends, demonic giants, eminent monks from the Buddhist sect, demon emperors, and ghost lords. Each of them was a ruthless character who emerged from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. It was said that in some ancient forces, there were ancient monsters and living fossils sleeping, and it was uncertain when they would emerge and stir up the world.

Powerful individuals, treasures that could suppress the luck of the Luck Race, divine medicines that could revive the dead and change one's destiny, mysterious hidden clans, ancient cave mansions in the void, legacies left by ancient divine ability users, and the vast and unimaginable outer space... If we were to tell the whole story in detail, it might take three days and three nights.

Therefore, Xue Bingxuan did not waste too much time on this aspect. She only gave a general overview, focusing on the content related to the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace.

She performed a spiritual technique towards the golden gourd on the table. The gourd trembled slightly, and after a few breaths, a faint clear light sprayed out from the mouth of the gourd, slowly spreading in mid-air, turning into a high-definition magical projection mirror.

Moreover, the images in this mirror were three-dimensional. Qin Muling could observe the corresponding scene from different angles.

Various sizes and distances of void land masses filled the field of vision. They were not fixed, but were constantly moving in the void along mysterious trajectories, never stopping.

Most of the edge regions of the land masses are incomplete and uneven, not like they were formed through natural evolution, but rather as if they were forcibly torn apart and shattered by some terrifying force.

In the vast expanse of the starry sky, it is difficult to say exactly how many of these floating land masses with various forms there are, even for the most knowledgeable Divine Ability practitioners.

The trajectories of many void land masses are not stable, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, and occasionally they are even impacted by other void land masses. Therefore, their surfaces are basically lifeless, without even a stable atmospheric protective layer, unable to sense any signs of life.

At the end of her vision, Qin Muling saw three dazzling suns. All the void land masses in this space, as well as the billions of living beings on the land masses, rely on their light and heat for survival.

"...This is our current location," Xue Bingxuan lightly tapped on one of the void land masses and enlarged its image. Qin Muling then saw a gray-black land mass with a radius of over a hundred thousand li. In its southwest region, there was a pale blue array resembling glass, covering thousands of li. Inside the array, there were over a hundred mountains of varying sizes, beautiful and full of spiritual energy. Many exquisite buildings, pavilions, palaces, and temples were scattered among the peaks.

Outside the protective array, there was a region about ten thousand li wide, nourished by the overflowing spiritual energy of the earth veins, forming vast oasis plains, lakes, and rivers. This supported a large number of mortals, with numerous cities and towns belonging to six mortal empires, as well as some independent city-states and commercial organizations.

These mortal nations naturally sought refuge under the wings of the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace, which provided them with security. In return, they obeyed the orders of the sect and offered a huge amount of resources every year, as well as being responsible for selecting talented geniuses to send to the sect.

The royal families of these empires, as well as important court officials, have intricate connections with the Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace. Many of the important figures' wives were once disciples or outer disciples of the sect. If they do not have the opportunity to advance further, they will return to the mortal world after serving a certain period of time and continue to enjoy the wealth and status of the mortal realm.

Of course, if they are fortunate enough to become inner disciples or even core disciples, their destiny will undergo a fundamental change, and they will no longer need to return to the mortal world.

"...Huh? What's the situation in this area? Is it all an uninhabited zone?"

Qin Muling's gaze swept towards the eastern half of the void land mass. Here, there was a vast expanse of gray-black land, with mountains and hills, lakes and rivers, but no signs of life could be seen, not even a blade of grass or a small insect. The tens of thousands of li in this area were completely silent.

"These places... are abandoned dead zones," Xue Bingxuan sighed. "The spiritual energy there is chaotic and violent, the geomagnetic feng shui is complex and ever-changing, and mortals cannot bear it. Even the Beast Race and Demon Race, who have a strong adaptability to harsh environments, cannot withstand it. There are also no resources to be used, so they can only remain empty."

Qin Muling asked in surprise, "Why is it like this?"

"It's all because of the ancient calamity," Xue Bingxuan explained. Many ancient powerhouses made their moves, using various destructive Divine Abilities, forbidden Law Treasures, and horrifying curses and sorceries, which shattered the vast heavens and earth. The entire Great World of time and space was devastated to the brink of destruction.
