It's time to become a fairy.

Although An Lanmeng's words contained many personal biases, the information they contained was enough for her to form a concept of the historical changes over the past 30,000 years.

"Tiancang Sect, that name sounds familiar. I think Feng Lingxiu mentioned it before... It seems to have been a small sect back then."

She stroked her chin, lost in thought. Before she could finish, a black, unidentified bird suddenly flew in from not far away, entering the room next to Ye Qingge's through the open window. A black mist surged forth, and when it dissipated, it had transformed into a woman dressed in tight black clothes.

She knelt on one knee, head bowed, and said, "Sect Leader An, the latest intelligence on the Tiancang Sect has been successfully obtained!"

Chapter 85 Thirty Thousand Years of Yankang, A Perilous Situation in the Fengdu Realm

"Tiancang Sect?"

Ye Qingge wondered to herself, "The name of this sect sounds somewhat familiar, but the Tianhui Sect that I know later joined my sect and changed its name to Tiancang Sect?"

An Lanmeng sneered, her voice filled with resentment: "It's that Tiancang Sect. That sect is no good."

She organized her thoughts and said, "According to the information I have, this sect seems to be experimenting with some kind of special weapon. They have received data support from the myriad paths of the Yan Kang Divine Dynasty and have already conducted several experiments. Each experiment has resulted in the destruction of a world... My world was destroyed in the experiment!"

Ye Qingge narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked at the scar on An Lanmeng's neck again. She hadn't realized it yet, assuming the scar was caused by an accident. Now it seemed that it was probably related to the crisis of the world's destruction.

"And the special weapon that An Lanmeng mentioned... could it be the one I'm thinking of?!"

The fall of the Yin God due to the explosion of the world-destroying weapon was still vivid in Ye Qingge's mind. The terror of that weapon reminded her of the terrifying weapon used for deterrence in her previous life. It was even more terrifying than that weapon. A weapon containing the law of destruction would directly destroy the laws of the entire world from its very source.

A true weapon of destruction!

As Ye Qingge's thoughts were in turmoil, An Lanmeng continued, "According to my intelligence, the Tiancang Sect will be targeting the Fengdu Realm, which is the world I am currently in, to test their weapons."

"The exact location of the weapon is not yet clear, but it is certain that it has entered the Fengdu Realm. The weapon they are testing is not yet perfect. Before it can be activated, detailed data of the Fengdu Realm needs to be collected, and the weapon's detailed parameters need to be set according to the actual situation."

Ye Qingge pondered for a moment and said, "According to your description, this weapon is extremely dangerous. Have you made final preparations for this operation?"

She was asking about An Lanmeng's backup plan.

Unlike Feng Lingxiu's situation, where the righteous path could act openly and uphold justice, An Lanmeng is now a demonic witch and can only operate in the shadows.

The impending destruction of the Fengdu Realm would certainly cause her to feel sorrow upon seeing familiar sights and recall the destruction of her own world, but it wouldn't be enough to make her risk her life in a desperate battle. She would definitely have a backup plan.

An Lanmeng pondered for a moment and said, "Of course we have made preparations. Before activating the final weapon, all the people from the Tiancang Sect will leave this place. Only after they have completely evacuated will we control the weapon to detonate. The evacuation of a large number of people will inevitably cause spatial fluctuations. Ordinary people will of course not be able to detect these spatial fluctuations. I have already ordered people to specifically investigate the changes in space. If we still cannot resolve the issue before most of the Tiancang Sect members have left, then we will withdraw directly."

"But that's a last resort. Before that, we'll do our best to make sure that the Fengdu Realm doesn't follow in the footsteps of my world... Let the guards report on the latest information first, and then we can make plans."

Ye Qingge responded in her heart and turned her gaze to the girl called the Dark Guard. Although she and An Lanmeng communicated quickly through their minds, a moment had passed in reality. The Dark Guard remained in the same awkward posture and did not even flinch.

Recalling An Lanmeng's tone and attitude, Ye Qingge calmly said, "Speak."

The young woman spoke respectfully, saying, "The Tiancang Sect's weapon testing grounds are very well hidden. After a month of investigation, the seven elders have initially narrowed down the area to seventeen villages. Researchers' whereabouts have been discovered in five of these villages, but we have also received some bad news."

At this point, the girl's expression turned serious.

Ye Qingge raised an eyebrow and said, "What news? Just report the truth."

The young woman respectfully responded, took a deep breath, and said, "In a village, Elder Si Rong found several fragments of research papers that had been burned halfway by researchers. Based on the information in them, he made a meticulous analysis and deduction that the Tiancang Sect's research on this weapon has reached the final stage. The remaining time is expected to be no more than five days, and most likely, the weapon will be put into use in three days."

"If we cannot find and destroy the weapon within three days, this mission will fail... Elder Si Rong has already summoned several other elders, and they are just waiting for you, Master, to come and convene the next action meeting."

Ye Qingge narrowed her eyes slightly and subconsciously touched her chin. This action, consistent with the system's inertia, would only give her a short time to complete the task. However, she quickly stopped the movement and, following her previous muscle memory, revealed a sinister sneer, saying, "Only three days? That makes the time very tight. What a fine righteous path you are, a major sect of righteousness, yet you repeatedly commit acts of world destruction."

"One day, the world will see the ugly faces of these so-called righteous sects... Lead the way!"

Mimicking An Lanmeng's mannerisms, Ye Qingge uttered two sentences of reflection, her tone concise, and she gave a low shout.

Whether it was a misperception or not, Ye Qingge seemed to sense a subtle emotional fluctuation in An Lanmeng's consciousness while she was speaking. However, the fluctuation came and went quickly, and Ye Qingge didn't pay any attention to it.

The guard formed hand seals, and wisps of black mist appeared from the void. Within the mist, his figure transformed back into an unidentified, entirely black bird-like demonic beast. With a slight flap of its wings, it flew to Ye Qingge's shoulder. At the same time, a consciousness emanated from beside him, pointing Ye Qingge in the direction to proceed.

An Lanmeng had already reminded Ye Qingge of the methods used by the Dark Guards of the Demon Sealing Holy Sect during their conversation. A hint of curiosity flashed in Ye Qingge's eyes, but she did not show it.

Reaching into her spirit ring, Ye Qingge produced a ghost mask. She placed it on her face, made hand seals, and in a short while, the mask merged with and disappeared from her face. Simultaneously, her entire aura changed, transforming her appearance into that of a completely different person. Even immortals of the same realm couldn't detect the change!

Stepping to the window, Ye Qingge's immortal power surged, and she soared into the air. The two perfected secret techniques, the Holy Demon Qi Concealment Technique and the Heavenly Demon Escape Technique, were unleashed, and her figure flew towards the place indicated by the guard.

There are no native Lingtai Immortal Realm immortals or gods in the Fengdu Realm. All the Lingtai Immortal Realm immortals and gods are powerful outsiders, scattered throughout the entire Fengdu Realm. The chances of encountering them are extremely slim, and there is almost no possibility of being discovered.

As a cursed witch, An Lanmeng is extremely skilled in concealing her aura, using escape techniques, and transforming into human form. This is the key to her safe survival all the way. She did not cause any accidents along the way. After flying for nearly twenty minutes, an exceptionally prosperous city appeared at the end of her vision.

Under An Lanmeng's introduction, Ye Qingge learned that the city was called Fengwei City. A teleportation array leading to the main world had been built in the city. It was one of the transportation hubs for trade between the two worlds, with a large number of people traveling between the two worlds. Gathering intelligence here was much better than in other places with poor information. As a result, it was chosen by the Demon Sealing Holy Sect as its temporary headquarters.

Thanks to trade between the two worlds, the city has achieved a level of prosperity far exceeding the average level of the Fengdu Realm. The overall structure of the city is vastly different from the town where An Lanmeng previously stayed; in fact, it's practically unrecognizable!

If the previous town was a remote and impoverished place, with only a few everyday items containing spiritual technology products similar to those of Ye Qingge's era, then this city already largely resembles the advanced spiritual technology era of Ye Qingge's time, and even the architectural style has changed considerably.

Rows of simple, ancient-looking spirit boats sailed through the city streets. Ye Qingge's consciousness enveloped the entire city, taking in its entirety. Most of the spirit boats were basic, rustic versions, but the most luxurious ones rivaled those in the real world, requiring extraordinary mastery of spiritual energy technology to achieve!

Given the circumstances of the Fengdu Realm, it is clearly impossible to build such an exquisite spirit boat. Only Yankang, which has a history of over 30,000 years, could have done this. Judging from such a spirit boat, Yankang's development in spiritual technology is probably no less advanced than that of the real world where Ye Qingge lives.

Surrounding the luxurious spirit ship were seven or eight simpler spirit ships escorting it. The cockpit of the lead spirit ship was semi-transparent, and inside sat a slightly plump young man dressed in rich clothes. Despite his poor physique, his face was unusually delicate, a blend of features from the main world and those from the Wind Capital Realm, clearly a hybrid of the two worlds.

The natives of Fengdu Realm generally have lower talent and aptitude, and the atmosphere of cultivation is far less intense than in the main world. As a result, not a single immortal or god has ever stepped into the Spirit Platform Immortal Realm. However, they have an advantage that people in the main world do not have—exquisite appearance, high looks, and they are not prone to gaining weight!

People like the slightly chubby man in the spirit boat are extremely rare, but due to the location at the border between the two worlds, there are quite a few mixed-race people. Not far in front of the spirit boat, Ye Qingge saw a little girl with an exceptionally delicate face.

The little girl looked to be about twelve years old. Her clothes were washed until they were almost white, but her pretty face was exquisitely beautiful. It was as if she had received all the blessings of heaven, and all the beauty in the world was gathered on her face. She was also wearing a small spirit ring on her hand. She looked timid and made people want to tease her a little.

"The people in this world are so good-looking that they can make full use of that. I really don't know what the rulers of the Tiancang Sect are thinking, preparing to destroy such a world just to test weapons."

Seeing that they had arrived at the gathering place of the elders of the Sealed Demon Holy Sect as indicated by the secret guards, Ye Qingge withdrew her consciousness and couldn't help but shake her head inwardly, feeling utterly contemptuous of the one in charge of the Heavenly Cang Sect.

The elders chose an inconspicuous, ordinary building in the city as their meeting place. When Ye Qingge arrived, all seven elders were already gathered there. The moment Ye Qingge entered, they all stood up and respectfully said, "Welcome to the Holy Master."

"All sit down."

Ye Qingge nodded calmly and stepped into the room.

Before she entered the room, the guard on her shoulder suddenly flapped its wings and left Ye Qingge's shoulder. It opened its mouth and exhaled a cloud of black mist that filled the room. A moment later, it transformed back into a woman in a tight-fitting outfit who stood at the door, carefully closing the door for Ye Qingge and guarding the entrance to the conference room.

The conference room had already been set up with a special array, and the moment the door closed, the interior was isolated from the outside.

"What is the reason for this urgent summons of the sect leader?"

Ye Qingge glanced at the seven people in the conference room, and finally her gaze fell on one of the slightly thin men. According to An Lanmeng's introduction, this was Elder Si Rong, who was in charge of intelligence in the Holy Sect.

The Holy Church has seven elders, five men and two women, each with their own unique area of ​​expertise. They joined the Holy Church through An Lanmeng's rigorous selection process. Those who sit here are not truly evil by nature. Rather than being demonic villains, they are more like madmen whose actions are out of step with the world. However, like An Lanmeng, they ultimately fell into the infamous demonic path after countless coincidences.

However, An Lanmeng's condition was due to a curse, while these seven people's condition was due to true fortune and the times.

Si Rong understood Ye Qingge's meaning, stood up, and respectfully said, "The secret guards must have already reported the general intelligence to the Holy Sect Master. In short, with the help of myself and other relevant talents within the Holy Sect, we have finally deciphered most of the information from the fragments of the secret scrolls that the researchers burned some time ago, and learned that the Tiancang Sect will actually activate its weapons in the next three to five days!"

"However, there are still seventeen areas in the search area that we have not yet explored. Should our Holy Church conduct a comprehensive search in a dispersed manner, or concentrate our efforts to defeat them one by one? We ask the leader to make the decision."

Ye Qingge tapped the table lightly with his fingers and asked, "Is there any difficulty in conducting a full-scale search?"

The Demon-Sealing Holy Cult has quite a few experts who have entered the Fengdu Realm, so conducting a comprehensive search of the seventeen villages in secret shouldn't be a big problem. Since Si Rong asked this question, there must be some difficulties involved that he is unaware of.

Sure enough, Si Rong gave a wry smile and said, "According to our undercover investigation, a number of people from the Taicang Sect have entered the Fengdu Realm recently and provided technical support to the Tiancang Sect. On the surface, that's the case, but based on our current intelligence analysis, it seems that the Tiancang Sect has already discovered our presence and has therefore asked the Taicang Sect for help!"

"If we split up, there is a high chance that the Taicang Sect will find clues and defeat us one by one. This would be a huge loss for our Holy Sect. If we don't do this... I'm afraid there won't be enough time!"

Ye Qingge tapped her fingers lightly on the table, frowned and pondered for a while, then said, "Since this world is a subordinate world of the Tiancang Sect, then the Tiancang Sect must have quite a few industries, right?"

Si Rong nodded and said, "We have also considered targeting these industries to prevent the other side from completely relocating their industries out of Fengdu Realm at the last minute, as a way to attract attention. However, once this plan is launched, it will inevitably cause some casualties to the Holy Church."

Ye Qingge understood his meaning. Destroying the property in the world of Tiancang Sect was tantamount to suicide, which meant that this group of people would be abandoned by the Holy Sect, and the losses would not be small. The elders could not bear this responsibility, and only An Lanmeng, as the sect leader, was qualified to make this decision.

Is it worth risking the destruction of the Sealed Demon Holy Cult for the sake of the soon-to-be-destroyed Fengdu Realm?

Ye Qingge thought for two seconds and quickly came to an answer.

She smiled and said, "In that case, spread out all the members of the Holy Sect and launch a full-scale attack on the Tiancang Sect's assets. Once the attack is over, use a secret technique to return to the main world directly. There's no need to stay in the Fengdu Realm any longer!"

"Si Rong, you stay here to oversee the overall situation. Within three days, regardless of success or failure, you must ensure that everyone returns to the main world using my Holy Sect's secret technique, including you. The other elders will select eleven leaders to lead their teams to these seventeen locations to hide. There's no need to investigate; just wait for my arrival. Once I arrive, don't hesitate; immediately use the secret technique to return to the main world!"

Beside her, a silver-haired female elder, Kong Wanrou, frowned and said, "Three days is enough time to cross seventeen places that are far apart. Even if the sect leader travels at full speed, he might not be able to reach them all. There's also the time needed to check each one individually..."

"I have my own plans. Let's not delay and summon the team leaders directly."

Ye Qingge interrupted her, her tone resolute, indicating that she had already made up her mind.

There wasn't much time left. In three days, she not only had to travel back and forth between seventeen locations, but also find the weapon's weakness. Time was very tight, and regardless of success or failure, she had no time to waste any more.

Kong Wanrou opened her mouth, but swallowed the rest of her words and nodded silently.

Another elder in charge of communication made hand seals and sent out messages. In less than an hour, eleven deacons of the Demon Sealing Holy Sect appeared and bowed to everyone.

Ye Qingge made a hand seal and cast a soul-snatching spell mark on everyone before announcing the end of the meeting and arranging for everyone to go to the seventeen locations.

"Can Senior Feng really succeed by doing this?"

An Lanmeng's worried voice rang out from her consciousness, clearly indicating that she did not have a good opinion of Ye Qingge's actions.

Ye Qingge smiled slightly and said, "As long as I use the positioning function, I have my own way of traveling between everyone to investigate the seventeen locations, but doing so will consume a lot of resources. How many resources do you have left?"

An Lanmeng remained silent for a while before revealing the locations where she stored her resources.

The order had been issued, and she had no choice but to trust Ye Qingge this once. For An Lanmeng, who possessed alchemy skills, acquiring resources wasn't difficult; it was just a matter of time. If using these resources could bring about a chance of success, it wouldn't be a loss.

"I hope it will succeed..."

She sighed softly to herself.

Compared to An Lanmeng, Ye Qingge was much more attentive. She noted down the location An Lanmeng mentioned and was about to get up to go to the first place to collect resources when she suddenly stopped, opened the window of her room, and looked at the street outside.

The conference room also has windows. Previously, secret meetings required the formation to seal off and isolate the information, but now that the meeting is over, there is no longer any concern about opening the windows.

Below, a crowd had already gathered. Ye Qingge focused a bit of her immortal power in her eyes and clearly saw the reason for the crowd's gathering.

The main characters in the incident were the slightly overweight, mixed-race man and the delicate-faced little girl on the spirit boat she had just been watching. The slightly overweight man was loudly scolding the little girl, who wanted to defend herself, but looked like she couldn't win the argument and was on the verge of tears.

Her eyes narrowed slightly as she surveyed the entire area. The luxurious spirit boat that had been following the man was no longer on the street in front of her. After observing carefully for a while, she discovered that it was docked on another street not far away. Not only the luxurious spirit boat, but also the other simple and ancient spirit boats that had been on guard were also docked there. The doors of many of these spirit boats were open, and they were all empty.

After listening to the argument, Ye Qingge's eyes flickered, and she smiled. "Interesting. This little girl seems to have a special identity. Are they trying to kidnap her... huh?"

The mission was not yet complete, and there was no time to deal with trivial matters. Ye Qingge was about to turn her attention back to her plan, but when she caught sight of the sign for the exchange area on the luxury spirit ship, her expression changed drastically, a cold glint appeared in her eyes, and she touched her pretty face, then made a hand seal.

Her pretty face rippled like water, and Ye Qingge's appearance changed once again. She grew taller and changed her form again, her figure drifting downwards.

At this moment, on the street outside the window

The argument between the two had reached its peak. The slightly overweight man's face was contorted with rage as he pounded his spirit boat, glaring menacingly at the little girl: "See this spirit boat? Do you think I need to extort a little girl like you? The price of this one spirit boat is enough to buy several of the spirit rings you have. What about you?"

"You still won't admit to stealing? All your possessions combined don't even amount to a fraction of the value of a spirit ring. How could you possibly own something as precious as a spirit ring?"

"I ask you, did you go to Wanbaofang yesterday?"

The little girl's pretty face flushed red with anxiety, and she hurriedly explained, "I went to Wanbaofang to pawn this spirit ring. It was left to me by my father, and I wanted to use it to treat my grandmother's illness. I..."

"See, you admit it now." The slightly overweight man sneered, rudely interrupting the little girl. "Yesterday afternoon, when I went to Wanbaofang, I lost a spirit ring that looked exactly like the one you had. You lost one around the same time. I was drinking and having fun with the owner and other old friends, and many people saw the spirit ring on my hand. Now it's in your hand. I've found a flaw in your hand in front of everyone, and you still want to deny it?"
