Good heavens, the ancestor has gone to confess his love again!

He was very confident.

Meng Anran's cultivation level was only at the second level of Quasi-Emperor, and she had no Quasi-Emperor weapon in her hand, so her foundation was shallow.

He himself was a peak Quasi-Emperor of the seventh level, with profound foundation and formidable combat power. The difference between the two was like heaven and earth, as if they were mud and clouds.

In his eyes, Meng Anran's threat was nothing more than the clamor of ants, a laughing stock.

The next second!

Snapped! ! !

A crisp, domineering, and earth-shattering slap suddenly rang out!

fast!

Extremely fast!

No one in the audience could even see the movement clearly; they only caught a glimpse of a dazzling purple afterimage flashing across the void.

The next moment, Ye Siming, who had just been arrogant and domineering, was as if he had been hit by an ancient divine mountain. His body instantly went out of control and he was sent flying sideways!

A deafening roar!

His body was embedded in the huge dragon-shaped stone pillar of the Heavenly Court. The stone fragments exploded and the dust filled the sky. He was slapped so hard that he was dizzy and his blood was churning. Most of his bones were broken!

"No...impossible!!"

Ye Siming struggled to lift his head, his eyes filled with utter disbelief, a metallic taste rising in his throat as blood began to spill uncontrollably.

Not only him, but all the cultivators present froze on the spot, their pupils shrinking sharply.

The purple figure that made the move just now was clearly Meng Anran!

How could Meng Anran, a mere Quasi-Emperor at the second level, possibly severely injure the dignified Senluo Palace Master, a Quasi-Emperor at the peak of the seventh level, with just one move and one slap?

In the VIP section, Bai Zhixi and Nangong Lie froze simultaneously, their eyes widening in shock!

In that split second, only the two top experts at the peak of the eighth level of Quasi-Emperor vaguely caught a glimpse of a terrifying phenomenon!

The instant Meng Anran raised her hand, a faint, sacred, seven-colored phoenix phantom appeared around her.

The phoenix's might was vast and its Daoist charm boundless. An ancient and mysterious aura swept across the four directions. Even though it was just a fleeting afterimage, it still made the two of them tremble with fear, completely unable to see through its depths!

And they feel...

If that slap had been aimed at them, they probably wouldn't have been able to withstand it.

The cultivation technique that Meng Anran practices is absolutely beyond the known top-tier Emperor-level cultivation techniques of the human race, and may even be the legendary... Immortal-level cultivation technique!

At that moment, Nangong Lie understood the terrifying depths of the Heavenly Court.

The ten supreme imperial weapons that appeared in the world before were indeed terrifying, but without the power of a great emperor, imperial weapons are ultimately just inanimate objects with limited power. They can only guard the mountain gate, protect the territory, and ensure that the sect will not fall for ten thousand years.

However, a supreme immortal-level cultivation technique is the foundation for a sect's prosperity, its inheritance from generation to generation, and the emergence of numerous powerful figures!

With imperial weapons guarding its foundation and cultivation techniques giving birth to geniuses, this newly established Heavenly Court already possesses the capital to rival the three holy lands of the human race!

Given time, it may become the fourth holy land of the human race!

Thinking of this, Nangong Lie felt a chill run down his spine.

His fingers flew across the keyboard as he frantically pinched the communication jade talisman, urgently reporting the earth-shattering event to the Holy Lord of Fuyou and the Yin-Yang Emperor.

Despite his repeated attempts to send messages, the Yin-Yang Emperor remained silent.

Only the Holy Lord Fuyao sent back a message:

"Let's wait and see how things unfold, and await the Emperor's decision."

Bai Zhixi, standing to the side, had a completely different focus than Nangong Lie.

She stared intently at Meng Anran on the high platform, her eyes almost overflowing with envy.

Just now, in the instant when Meng Anran activated her cultivation technique and the phoenix phantom appeared in the world, her entire temperament underwent an ultimate sublimation.

Her former gentleness has completely faded away, replaced by a holy and noble aura that looks down upon the mortal world, ethereal and otherworldly, like a goddess descending from the heavens or an ancient phoenix lord descending to earth, with unparalleled beauty and crushing all living beings.

Even though she was a woman herself, Bai Zhixi felt a deep sense of shame and inferiority.

Before this, she had never imagined that a cultivation technique could reshape one's aura, elevate one's spirit and temperament, and allow a woman's appearance, demeanor, and inner qualities to be sublimated step by step!

An endless longing instantly welled up in my heart.

If she could learn this extraordinary skill, her charm and temperament would surely surpass what she had before. At that time, her husband would definitely change his indifference and fall in love with her again, returning to the passionate and tender days of their past.

But she also knew that Meng Anran's change must have come from Xu Pingsheng.

Should I... go and beg Xu Pingsheng?

Such a top-tier skill must come at a great cost, right?

Given Xu Pingsheng's character, the conditions were self-evident.

……

Bai Zhixi subconsciously pursed her red lips and quietly closed her legs.

The image of being forcibly kissed in public by Xu Pingsheng involuntarily flashed into her mind, and her ears instantly turned slightly red.

She was a traditional woman who adhered to her principles, her heart devoted to her husband, and she would never let... a third man touch her again!

It's even more impossible for them to pay such a price to obtain the cultivation technique.

"well……"

Bai Zhixi sighed softly, her heart filled with regret.

Available in the next second.

Her eyes suddenly lit up, and her gaze instantly fell on Bai Xuexin below, who was looking at her with adoration and starry eyes. A brilliant idea instantly popped into her mind.

Her own daughter already had a very good impression of Xu Pingsheng, so if she sent her younger daughter to... Xu Pingsheng's tutelage for cultivation.

Wouldn't that allow me to learn this heaven-defying technique?

When the time comes, I'll just have my daughter give me a little pointers in private, and that'll solve the problem!

Bai Zhixi's eyes flickered slightly as she made a crucial decision.

Among the crowd below, the Xu family members were filled with envy, discussing amongst themselves, sighing with emotion.

"I'm so envious~~"

"Who says otherwise! It's a pity we're all men, destined to be barred from cultivation! The Undying Heavenly Art passed down to us by our ancestors is indeed powerful and makes our bodies invincible, but it's ultimately a technique for taking hits. It can only protect the body and doesn't improve one's temperament or demeanor at all. Compared to that, it's far inferior!"

"Yes~ It's a pity we're not girls, otherwise we would definitely learn the Phoenix Song of the World Immortal Scripture. Sigh~ Our ancestors only gave us the Undying Heavenly Art, which is awesome, but it always feels like a technique for getting beaten up. It didn't improve our looks or temperament at all, and it made us look like sitting ducks~~"

"Don't even mention it! Ever since my wife started using the Phoenix Ode to the World Immortal Scripture, she's become three times more beautiful. I've been partying every night these past few days, sigh... Not only has it interfered with my cultivation, but the wives of Old Wang and Old Qian next door are also complaining about me~~"

Upon hearing this, the clansmen nearby were instantly dumbfounded, looking at their usually honest and well-behaved cousin with surprise.

"Stop shouting. Instead of wasting time, why don't you hurry home and farm the land, and try to have a daughter? If you can't learn it yourself, can't your daughter?" The whole place was filled with noise and discussion, but Ye Siming had no time to pay attention to the commotion around him.

He fiercely wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, enduring the excruciating pain all over his body. His eyes blazed with murderous intent, and he assumed that his defeat was due to a moment of carelessness and negligence.

"You, Meng Anran! How dare you deliberately conceal your cultivation level and deceive the world in public!"

"You're not just at the second level of Quasi-Emperor; you've already reached the sixth level! I was caught off guard and you managed to launch a sneak attack. You've thoroughly enraged me!"

"This time, I will be ruthless and show no mercy..."
