The Female Daoist practitioner from the pre-Qin period, she has indeed arrived!

Her black hair fluttered in the wind, her clothes billowed in the breeze, ethereal and otherworldly, truly possessing unparalleled beauty and a serene, Clear and Transcendent grace.

For most people, this would be an encounter with a celestial being, a moment of great excitement and honor. But for Wang Xuan, it was a chilling experience, a feeling of dread.

Ever since discovering a wisp of the Female Daoist practitioner's spirit hidden in the beaded bracelet on Zheng Rui's wrist in the secret place, Wang Xuan had a bad feeling, and now the trump card has really appeared.

The altar in the Earth Immortal City is so grand that it can support the curtain, which is quite special. Heaven knows what will happen when the remnant spirit in the mortal world meets the Female Daoist practitioner who has become an immortal. This is a reunion after three thousand years!

"There really is an immortal! A living female immortal appeared before us, like the goddess of the Luo River dancing on the waves, like the moon shining in the moon palace. I have seen a celestial being from mythology!"

Zhong Cheng whispered, utterly shocked. He had never seen such a scene before. For people in the modern world, the impact of mythology approaching the real world was too strong.

Zhong Qing pinched him to shut up and stop talking nonsense. After all, this was a female immortal who had truly lived from ancient times, and it would be troublesome if she were offended.

At the same time, she was incredibly envious. Immortals are forever young and have radiant appearances, which is too tempting for a young woman who loves beauty.

"Senior, I think this strange object is also quite nice." Wang Xuan's finger slid toward another object in front of the curtain.

He was somewhat apprehensive and genuinely did not want to meet with the most powerful Transcendent Immortals at this stage.

"What a coincidence, that was also one of the rare items she left behind," the White Peacock said.

Wang Xuan's body stiffened slightly. He realized that no matter what he chose, the White Peacock would probably say that it was left behind by the Female Daoist practitioner and that she had already arranged everything for him "clearly".

The Female Daoist practitioner descended from the sky, surrounded by a light white mist. She was indeed like a fairy descending to earth in legends, remaining peerless and independent even amidst the mundane world.

"Greetings, Fairy." Wang Xuan was very serious and didn't dare to speak carelessly.

After all, she is a person Ascension to Immortality three thousand years ago. Who knows what kind of temperament and disposition she will have after experiencing so many years in the world behind the Great Curtain?

As expected, she was different from the remaining spiritual entities in the mortal world. After she landed, she remained silent and still. Although her skin was as smooth as jade and her whole being was serene and otherworldly, she also possessed an invisible majesty.

She possessed an immense aura; even through the large curtain, one could feel her icy demeanor, truly otherworldly, making one feel as if facing a frozen wasteland.

She simply nodded slightly in response to Wang Xuan's greeting.

As expected, after becoming an immortal, she was different. After three thousand years of battles and duels with top figures among the Transcendent Immortals, she truly stood at the top of the pyramid. Every move she made exuded an inexplicable power, inspiring awe.

In general, she was taciturn, as if covered by ice and snow, with a queen-like demeanor, seemingly extremely distant from the mortal world, and unapproachable.

Wang Xuan couldn't help but recall that when the Female Daoist practitioner's spirit had just been revived in the mortal world, she entered his dream, and in order to resist, he had even touched... her delicate, fair cheeks.

If she, now an immortal, knew this, she'd probably be furious. Someone with such a powerful aura, having been in a high position for so long, must have a terrible temper.

However, he was not afraid. In general, it wasn't that he needed the Female Daoist practitioner's help; time was on his side!

Three years later, if the curtain really falls and the Transcendent Immortals are destined to perish, what can the top true immortals who can escape back to the mortal world do after losing their extraordinary abilities?

However, when he thought about the woman in front of him, who eventually turned from a celestial being into a mortal, Wang Xuan was really lost in thought, wondering what choices she would make in the future.

To his surprise, the Female Daoist practitioner in the curtain did not speak to him, but looked to the other side.

Her remaining spiritual form in the mortal world appeared and floated over silently. The two of them were outstanding in appearance and could be described as having stunning looks.

However, their temperaments are different. The woman in the real world is slightly gentler, with a gentle smile, while the woman behind the curtain is cold as ice, with an air of keeping people at arm's length.

That's understandable. Behind the Great Curtain three thousand years of war, he's seen many powerful figures from various races, his hands stained with the blood of Transcendent Immortals. As a giant in his own right, he's quite different from his mortal self.

Two stunningly beautiful women with identical appearances touched fingers together across the curtain, and for a moment, the world seemed to collapse.

The curtain roared, and before their fingertips, the light screen was torn open—this was incredibly astonishing!

In an instant, the Female Daoist practitioner had become an immortal in the grand curtain suddenly looked over, her eyes shining brightly, like two Divine Rainbow streaking across the void and landing on Wang Xuan.

Wang Xuan knew that the two Female Daoist practitioner had spiritually connected and understood each other's experiences after so many years of separation, and the celestial being in the curtain knew about his situation.

"Three years from now... guide me through... the Tribulation of Transcendent Immortals, and I will reward you handsomely!"

A mental fluctuation emanated from within the curtain, which was a definite violation of the old agreement. She was directly conversing with Wang Xuan; how dare she do such a thing?

Previously, there was only a Red-clothed Demon Immortal, whose clear voice could be heard from behind the Great Curtain. Now, the Female Daoist practitioner has gone even further in violating the old covenant.

Deep within the curtain of time, a bolt of lightning hundreds of miles long streaked across the sky, striking the immortal Female Daoist practitioner. The thunder was thick and terrifying beyond measure.

She didn't care, and without turning around, with her back to the huge lightning deep in the curtain, she flicked her sleeve and with a bang, scattered the lightning that filled the sky!

Not to mention the world within the grand curtain, even the secret realm was trembling slightly. The vast heavenly thunder could not withstand the flick of her feathered robe and was directly extinguished!

Then, countless lightning bolts filled the sky, and thunderbolts rained down on the immortal Female Daoist practitioner, all aimed at killing her.

Behind the behind the Great Curtain, the world was like a vast ocean of thunder, with mountains and rivers wailing, suspended islands falling, and all the Divine Bird Sacred Beast fleeing in terror.

She was bathed in lightning, yet remained as cold as a snow lotus in the dead of winter, emitting a soft light that spread out a halo, blocking all the Lightning Tribulation.

She looked at Wang Xuan and repeated her words again, her will and conviction so strong that they pierced through the curtain. No one else could hear her, but Wang Xuan heard it—a tremendous echo, like thunder or Collapse Tsunami, reverberating through the sky.

"The Red-clothed Demon Immortal has her eye on me and wants to hunt me!" Wang Xuan blurted out.

He was not very willing. The so-called Female Daoist practitioner who was supposed to guide him through the tribulations of Transcendent Immortals was going to have to pay a price, and most likely he would have to go through his Inner Scenery Realm.

"Oh, she came today too. I told her to go back. It seems she still has a lot of control over the mortal world; she knew you were here," the Female Daoist practitioner calmly informed her.

Wang Xuan's scalp tingled. The Red-clothed Demon Immortal was also behind this behind the Great Curtain? What a coincidence! A series of thoughts suddenly came to mind.

Traces of their past can be found throughout the secret realm. The White Peacock and the Female Daoist practitioner have an unusual relationship, suggesting that there is also a powerful demon and Female Demon Immortal with a close relationship here. Who could it be? Could it be the Old Fox?

At this moment, the immortal Female Daoist practitioner's fingers emitted an increasingly dazzling light, causing the curtain to shatter and the dense gaps to intertwine into a spider web.

In the Earth Immortal City, everyone's heart pounded, and all the monsters trembled as they watched her bathe in heavenly lightning, remaining unmoved. They were all utterly shocked.

A mysterious life energy emanated from the curtain, constantly being annihilated, but in the end, some of it merged into the spiritual entity here.

That originally faint and indistinct spiritual body is now actually taking on a physical form, as if it is about to give birth to flesh and blood.

As expected, the Female Daoist practitioner had made preparations in advance and managed to save some lives, but the losses were enormous. She quickly stopped and turned to leave!

She was willing to sacrifice her own life force and skip the three-year mark to get through some of the life imprints ahead of time, which was a worst-case scenario plan.

She feared that failure in three years would mean losing everything. Now, she paid a huge price to enter the mortal world ahead of time, ensuring that she could ultimately survive.

Wang Xuan was moved. He could clearly feel that the female Female Daoist practitioner's spiritual body had become more refined. If she returned to her physical body in the Old Earth, she would most likely come back to life!

This is an unparalleled Transcendent Immortals who left her physical body in the mortal world; she must have foreseen something back then!

Wang Xuan understood that she was much better prepared than the Transcendent Immortals behind the Great Curtain!

Three years later, even if the mythology decays and the Female Daoist practitioner falls from the sky, losing her extraordinary powers, she will most likely be in a much better situation than other true immortals who have become mortals.

After all, she has already infiltrated the Zheng family, a powerful conglomerate, and she will be paving the way for the future over the next three years.

The immortal Female Daoist practitioner departed, and after several bursts of thunder, she vanished completely. At the edge of that immortal realm, a figure in red seemed to appear, but was stopped by the Female Daoist practitioner!

"Boom!"

An even more terrifying light burst forth, more frightening than a heavenly tribulation. Two Dao Body clashed, faster than lightning, sweeping across the earth and soaring into the sky.

But then they suddenly stopped, as if having a conversation, standing at the End of the Sky, hazy and indistinct, and finally looking together towards the outside of the curtain.

Wang Xuan felt a chill run down his spine; he sensed that the two men's gazes were fixed on him.

Sizzle!

Accompanied by beams of light that tore through the immortal realm's land and sky, the Dao Body vanished, it was unclear whether they went off to fight or left together.

Wang Xuan remained silent. He hoped that the two would continue fighting and go to battle in a distant place, rather than reach an agreement. If it was the latter, he was really not sure what to do.

"Never mind, the future is on my side. Even if you survive, you are destined to fall from the world of Transcendent Immortals, your celestial beings will degenerate into mortals, and after enduring the initial hardships, you will return to the mortal realm Wang Xuan!"

He encouraged himself, boosted his morale, and strengthened his resolve.

"The rare item you initially chose was quite good; it was the medicinal soil I left behind back then. It will be of great use once you set foot in the realm of life soil and herb gathering."

The Female Daoist practitioner's spiritual form, remaining in the mortal world, spoke, looking at a piece of Zi Ying jade in the grand screen, and nodded to Wang Xuan.

The medicinal soil is not actual soil, but more accurately, it contains some medicinal properties. The medicinal soil left behind by the Female Daoist practitioner contains some of the medicinal properties of celestial medicine!

This wasn't Wang Xuan's first encounter with such a thing. He had tricked the White Tiger True Immortal into giving him a piece of medicinal soil, which originally came from the Red-clothed Demon Immortal and was now stored in Blessed Land Fragment.

Now, he has also selected the medicinal soil left behind by the Female Daoist practitioner, and has accumulated two pieces. Both of them belong to the Transcendent Immortals. They will surely be of great use when he sets foot in the realm of life soil and herb gathering!

Upon hearing this, Old Chen decisively abandoned the rare item he had initially set his sights on, and approached with utmost humility, saying, "Please enlighten me, Fairy, I also wish to exchange for a piece of medicinal soil."

"There are indeed a few pieces of medicinal soil here, but they have the medicinal properties of natural medicine... wait, there really is one piece. This should have been left by a Great Sage."

The Female Daoist practitioner in the modern world has a good temper and is easy to talk to, much gentler than the icy Female Daoist practitioner who became an immortal.

In the distance, Zhong Cheng, Zhou Yun, and Zhong Qing, being non-supernatural beings, could not see the Female Daoist practitioner's spiritual form unless she deliberately manifested herself.

"Was that a Celestial Maiden just now? Will a true immortal of this level really fall to earth in three years? I think I need to work hard. A mortal marrying Transcendent Immortals —maybe it's not just a dream!" Zhou Yun clenched his fists, his face full of excitement, his eyes shining brightly.

"Yes, the future is bright, anything is possible!" Zhong Cheng nodded vigorously.

"Shut up, the curtain is still rising!" Zhong Qing scolded him. She was thinking that in the next three years, Transcendent Immortals would probably go crazy in order to survive.

Before the curtain falls, the Transcendent Immortals will surely try to find a way to escape!

What does this mean? In the next three years, something terrifying, like warships fighting Transcendent Immortals, might happen in the real world!

Zhong Qing thought about many things. The upheaval wouldn't happen three years later; it could happen at any time!

"Fairy, we're practically acquaintances now. I have something to ask you. The Red-clothed Demon Immortal is destined to enter the mortal world soon. How can we deal with her?" Wang Xuan asked.

Now that he can communicate with the Female Daoist practitioner's spiritual entity remaining in the mortal world, he naturally won't miss this rare opportunity!

"This wooden sword, which looks like it's about to rot, is quite good; it can kill an Earth Immortal," the Female Daoist practitioner said, introducing a rare treasure to Old Chen.

"What?" Old Chen was shocked.

"Oh, you can't exchange it. Only someone at the early stage of the Carefree Journey Realm can activate it," the Female Daoist practitioner shook her head.

Then, she looked at Wang Xuan and said, "What's your rush? Time is on your side."

"We have to be in a hurry. Right now, I'm afraid she'll make a move against me, and I won't be able to fight back," Wang Xuan said in a deep voice.

Then he earnestly asked, "Where did the Female Demon Immortal undergo her tribulation and ascend to immortality? Or rather, where is her cave dwelling? She must have fallen from the void into the mortal world, right?"

He wanted to find the immortal bones left behind by the Red-clothed Demon Immortal, or if she had defied the heavens and left behind a physical body, then he would have to make his move even sooner.
