Chapter Seventeen: The Clan Leader's Decision

  Outside, the sky was dark and dull, but inside the Hall of Life and Death, it was still radiant with a brilliant light. Half a day had passed, and on the meditation mats that originally surrounded the Illusory Realm in circles, many empty spots had appeared.

  Bang!

  A seven-colored cocoon suddenly burst open, revealing the slender boy inside, who stared wide-eyed in terror and fainted to the ground, losing consciousness.

  Seeing this, a middle-aged man rushed over, picked up the young man and stormed into the side door of the main hall like a whirlwind.

  Another one.

  Looking at the empty futon, Ninth Elder shook his head and sighed. The expressions of Seventh Elder Nie Xinghai and Eighth Elder Nie Longshan beside him also showed some dissatisfaction.

  Nie Qing Song smiled and said, "Don't be discouraged, three elders. It's already quite good that sixty-two people came out after half a day. Don't forget that the number of people who entered the Mortal Life Realm this time is twice as many as five years ago. Proportionally speaking..."

  Bang!

  Another loud explosion interrupted Nie Qing's voice.

  *sigh*...

  The nine elders and others thought that another young man had died in the mortal realm, his soul returning to his body. Even the middle-aged man standing beside him was prepared to take him out for treatment. But in an instant, the sigh that had just escaped his lips came to a sudden stop, leaving several people looking at each other in shock.

  The giant cocoon that made the noise did not burst, but instead emitted a dazzling seven-colored aurora.

  "This little guy actually broke through so quickly, great, great!" Looking at the colorful cocoon, Jiu Lao laughed uncontrollably.

  Nie Xinghai and Nie Longshan exchanged a smile, with a hint of surprise in their eyes. It was not uncommon for people to make breakthroughs in the Illusory Realm, but it was rare for someone's cultivation realm to improve after only half a day. What kind of experience had that little guy had in the Illusory Realm?

  Nie Qing Song stroked his long beard, looked at the middle-aged man beside him and smiled: "Finally some good news, Feng Han, do you still remember who that little guy is?"

  Nie Fenghan hastily said: "It should be that little genius from our family who recently came out, Nie Kong!"

  "Nie Kong?"

  Nie Qing Song and Jiu Changlei were stunned, Nie Kong had entered the Front before as a Gathering Spirit 9th grade, if he was promoted upwards, shouldn't that be a Communicating Spirit 1st grade?

  He has only been in the Nine Ranks of Gathering Spirit for about half a month, and now he's already entered the Realm of Transcending Spirit. Isn't that a bit too fast? The ranks within a small realm can be enhanced with spirit medicine, but crossing over between large realms doesn't have any shortcuts - it can only be achieved through arduous cultivation or sudden enlightenment!

  "A genius among geniuses! Indeed a genius among geniuses!" The Ninth Elder Nie Xingdong couldn't help but praise.

  "Not bad, wanting to enter the spiritual realm from the gathering of spirits, relying on medicine is not feasible. It seems that his body's transparency is quite good, and it may not be lower than Feng Lei." said Nie Xinghai.

  "Hmm." Nie Longshan said with a smile, "Lao Jiu, I heard you've treated him before, so you should be quite familiar with his physical condition, right?"

  "Cough, you don't know that the more he cultivated, the worse his body's transparency became. In the end, even ordinary people were better than him. Fortunately, he was able to cultivate the 'Ling Shen San Que'. Recently, I haven't investigated, perhaps after recovering from his illness, his body's transparency has greatly improved? When he comes out, I'll take a good look." Nie Xingdong pinched his chin, and his eyes suddenly became eager.

  “……”

  Listening to the conversation of the three elders, Nie Qing Song suddenly said solemnly: "Feng Han, you go and inform Qing Peng now, let him make arrangements, let our Nie family's people in various places search for Mu Xi Ling Jue and Ling Shu with all their might. Once there is a harvest, send it back to the family at the fastest speed."

  "Yes!"

  Nie Feng Han hastily retreated...

  ……

  Phantom Realm

  Inside the stone cave, Nie Kong's face revealed a satisfied smile. After reaching the Spiritual Meridian Realm, his spiritual orifices had expanded by nearly twice their original size. At this moment, the spiritual power inside his body had yet to subside, surging and churning like waves, making Nie Kong feel as if his entire body was filled with boundless power.

  There is a world of difference between Tong Ling and Ju Ling. Nie Kong's appearance hasn't changed, but he has a feeling of rebirth.

  Entering the spiritual realm means having a basic self-preservation ability in the life-and-death illusionary world filled with spiritual practitioners, meaning that even if one encounters someone like Nie Fengbo and is no match for them, they won't have to flee in disarray like before! The feeling of possessing strength is truly wonderful.

  The power of this world is just like the authority of the previous life, both are addictive.

  Just like Nie Kong, if he were to suddenly turn back into an ordinary traditional Chinese medicine doctor like in his past life, it would be absolutely more unbearable for him than being killed.

  It took a long time for Nie Kong's emotions to calm down slightly. He sensed the Purple Luo Phantom Fragrance that was still sleeping in the Jade Pool Hole, and Nie Kong's smile was hard to suppress. For him, this was a double joy, not only had he broken through to the Spiritual Realm, but the little guy might also be promoted to the second rank.

  At this moment, Nie Kong was quite grateful for the white jade stone wall that had risen from the ground. If it weren't for the large amount of medicinal fragrance that had surged out from within it, he and the little guy wouldn't have had this chance encounter.

  "Huh?"

  Nie Kong suddenly felt a sense of melancholy, his pupils shrinking as he crouched down and hid behind a rock. Someone had actually come outside.

  In an instant, Nie Kong discovered that the crack which had formed earlier began to shake and then split open like a curtain, revealing a familiar figure emerging from the dark night.

  Bai Yuqing!

  How did she come?

  Nie Kong was shocked, and he had found the entrance so accurately. She must have known about this hidden cave before she left the valley this afternoon! After the crack closed again, Bai Yuqing stumbled forward, her footsteps heavy and clumsy, as if she had been seriously injured.

  She stopped in the middle of the stone cave, panting slightly, and suddenly pulled the buckle on her waistband. Then, with a light tug to the right, the unbuttoned robe slid down along her arms and fell to the ground, revealing a slender, delicate, and sensitive white body that had also entered Nie Kong's line of sight.

  With her white robe gone, she was left with only a thickly wrapped breastband and shorts on her body, revealing large areas of smooth skin like frozen fat. Under the reflection of the white mang in the stone cave, it emitted a crystal clear luster.

  However, what's even more eye-catching is her figure. Her full and upright breasts slope downwards, the beautiful curves tightly gathered into a slender waist that can be grasped in one hand, then extremely exaggeratedly bulge outwards to form two plump and round buttocks. Below the beautiful buttocks, the curve once again gradually shrinks, a pair of long and round jade-like legs standing closed together, so tightly that almost no gap can be seen.

  At this time, Bai Yujing also untied her bodice.

  Soon, Nie Kong saw that there were clusters of bloodstains on the cloth strip, and as the cloth strip left his chest in circles, the bloodstains became more and more vivid.

  "Uh."

  It seemed to have touched a sore spot, and Bai Yuke let out a muffled groan. Her slender body shifted slightly to the side, and Nie Kong only then confirmed that her wound was on her back. The crimson bloodstain had flowed along the slightly concave spine, flowing down to the buttocks, dyeing the lower half of the white undergarment a deep red.

  Bai Yuqing's right hand made a circle, the last one wiping her chest and spreading out, two balls of white jade-like plumpness suddenly bursting out and jumping wildly.

  From the side, at the moment when those two jade peaks emerged, they emitted an increasingly stunning beauty... All kinds of adjectives poured out, Nie Kong couldn't help but secretly sigh, indeed, it's really amazing!

  Bai Yuke raised her slender left arm, and under her smooth armpit, there was a shocking splash of blood red. The wound extended from her back to her left rib. Looking at the wound that was still bleeding, Bai Yuke's eyebrows furrowed tightly, and suddenly, she caught sight of a faint footprint beside her...
