Checking in on the Ghost Ship Rewards a Trip to the Future Shrouding the Heavens World to Meet Empress Ruthless Once

"How did you know? This is clearly a real, large ship, how could it be a paper boat?" The Mermaid Saintess didn't believe him at all. ♡💗 🏆💎

She had always believed, from what she had heard since childhood, that Ghost Ship were terrifying black ships at sea, existing with a mysterious curse. All living beings would avoid them at all costs. Some people had gone up to explore for treasure, but none of them came out. Since then, no one dared to go up, and those who saw them avoided them like the plague.

Suddenly, Qian Ye said that it was just a small paper boat, and a white one at that. Not to mention that she was familiar with it since childhood and would not believe him even if she had seen it with her own eyes, no one else would believe him that this boat was a small paper boat folded by a person.

Qian Ye laughed, "You may not believe me, but you can't deny that this is a small paper boat, only its owner is no ordinary person. Also, it didn't come from ancient times, but was folded by someone from the future and placed here."

A person from the future?

"What, a person from the future? How come I, who lives in the sea, have never heard of such a thing?" The Mermaid Saintess found his words increasingly unreliable. "This Ghost Ship has clearly existed here since ancient times. You're saying it comes from the future? When you tell a story, you need to have some basis for it, right?"

Qian Ye laughed and said, "Saintess, I didn't lie to you. Its owner is indeed from the future. Her name is Empress Ruthless. She sent it here through the River of Time for one person. That person is her brother. She believes that person is her brother's reincarnation, so she sent this ship here to communicate with him."

Empress Ruthless?

The Mermaid Saintess was puzzled. Could it be that people from the future truly possessed such supernatural powers, capable of transporting things from the future to the past via the River of Time?

What's your name?

"Qian Ye, the 'chi' of 'Thousand-Year,' and the 'ye' of 'tree leaf.'

"Qian Ye," the Mermaid Saintess said thoughtfully, "Since the Empress Ruthless you mentioned is from the future, then her brother must also be from the future! How could he have reincarnated into the past, instead of into an even more distant future after her? And how could he communicate with the past from the future? None of this makes sense."

She found her mind reeling. She had never imagined that the mysterious, elusive Ghost Ship at sea could have such a story. Even more outrageous, it was said to have been sent here by someone from the future, who sent the little paper boat across the River of Time. It was more mythical than any legend.

Qian Ye tapped her on the head. "This is a supernatural power. The Empress Ruthless is a powerful cultivator, the future first Empress, with strength reaching the Immortal Emperor Realm. Do you think she has this kind of supernatural power?"

"Immortal Emperor!" The Mermaid Saintess didn't even dare to imagine it. How could she not know the level of Immortal Emperor? "You mean, she's a future Immortal Emperor cultivator?"

If the other party is at the level of Immortal Emperor, she feels that such a thing is indeed possible. After Immortal Emperor, an Immortal Emperor is the strongest cultivator in the Heavenly Court of the Upper Realm. It is difficult for even the Nine Heavens and Ten Emperors to produce such a peak cultivator. Generally, there Immortal King Giant, at most reaching the level of Pseudo-Emperor. Immortal Emperor basically do not appear in pairs at the same time. Moreover, it may take Million Years, tens of millions, or even longer to produce an Immortal Emperor- level cultivator.

Beings like the Corpse Immortal Emperor were already emperors of all ages, having lived for countless years before achieving this status. Only after that did geniuses like the Heavenly Emperor Huang emerge, who dominated all ages. Then came the Empress Ruthless, the Heavenly Emperor Ye, and the Heavenly Emperor Chu, all of whom had lived through countless ages and were once again geniuses chosen from among all ages before finally attaining the Immortal Emperor position.

The Immortal Emperor, the emperor of all immortals, symbolizes the pinnacle of power on the path of cultivation. He is in sync with the creation of the Heavenly Dao and no one can touch him; he practically controls the Shrouding the Heavens.

"That's right, she also has a nickname, the Heaven-Devouring Great Emperor. It's a technique that strengthens herself by devouring others, called the Heaven-Devouring Demon Technique. By constantly devouring various special physiques and the origin of heaven and earth, her strength has almost reached the pinnacle of future cultivators."

The Mermaid Saintess suddenly became interested, even though she thought it wasn't true, she listened to the story anyway. "But what exactly is she? And why is she called the Empress Ruthless?"

Qian Ye continued, "To explain why she's called the Empress Ruthless, we must start from her childhood. The Empress Ruthless was actually an orphan in her childhood, all alone. Later, she met someone, the most important person in her life, who changed everything. Her life story begins with her brother. As a child, the Empress Ruthless's physique prevented her from cultivating, but she had a brother with a naturally Sacred Physique. Because her parents died early, she met someone—her brother—and followed him. From then on, he protected her, and they depended on each other for survival. From then on, she lived a very happy and joyful life. Her brother's meticulous care for her was the love of her life, an unforgettable presence and a cherished memory."

"Originally, the young Empress Ruthless thought that her happy life with her brother would continue like this forever, never to be separated, never to abandon each other. But fate often doesn't go as planned. Not long after, one day a group of people suddenly came to her house, saying that her brother possessed Sacred Physique, and took her brother away."

"Is it because of her brother's Sacred Physique?" the Mermaid Saintess guessed. Suddenly, she felt a surge of curiosity about this Empress Ruthless.

Even though it was made up by Qian Ye, I still feel that the protagonist of the story is very profound. He is so young, yet he has such a unique story and life.

"Yes, it was a faction called the Ascension God Dynasty that took her brother away," Qian Ye replied.

Mermaid Saintess: "That Empress Ruthless's brother possesses Sacred Physique. The Ascension God Dynasty must have taken him away to nurture him well. Will her brother also become a Immortal King or Immortal Emperor in the future?"

Qian Ye shook his head. "Quite the opposite. Not only did he not become that kind of person, but a few years later, the little girl only saw her brother's remains."

Ah~

The Mermaid Saintess was shocked to hear this. She had initially thought it was a comedy—that her brother's cultivation had greatly increased, giving him the strength to take his sister in and raise her. Instead, she realized it was a tragedy. "Won't that little girl be heartbroken?"

"Yes, I'm very sad."

"And then what happened? Wasn't the little girl's constitution such that she couldn't cultivate? How did she become Immortal Emperor? And how did her brother die?"

"Her brother was naturally killed by the people of the Ascension Dynasty. The reason is simple: they wanted his Sacred Physique. As for how she became Immortal Emperor, she left her residence and disappeared after seeing her brother's body reduced to ashes."

"Later, she rose to prominence, mainly due to her Heaven-Devouring Demon Technique, which was the key to her becoming Immortal Emperor."

"As for her title of Empress Ruthless, in order to avenge her brother, she hardened her heart and embarked on a blood-stained path. Only the word 'ruthless' can describe her journey to becoming Immortal Emperor."

"I see." The Mermaid Saintess nodded, somewhat moved. "Although this Empress Ruthless is ruthless and has killed countless people, he was forced into it. I think I've fallen for him." The Mermaid Saintess said calmly.

"But this is just a paper boat, sent from the future by her. How did you know that? Are you also Immortal Emperor, knowing the past and future?"

Qian Ye shook his head again. "I'm not Immortal Emperor, I'm just a tiny bit stronger than Immortal Emperor? A tiny bit, a tiny bit, a tiny bit."

"Oh?" Even the Mermaid Saintess couldn't help but laugh out loud, "If you're so powerful, why don't you go to heaven? What are you doing staying in the Lower Realm?"

Don't believe me? Fine, I can't be bothered to explain myself!

Qian Ye didn't continue the topic. Instead, he glanced around the ship, walked forward, and came to the cabin door, which was still stained with blood.

Qian Ye reached out and touched the bloodstain. Suddenly, the bloodstain came to life, and the scene before him changed abruptly. He saw a woman in white, flawless, with a pair of slender, fair, and long hands.

She held a white paper boat in her hands, but the boat was stained with black blood, making it look somewhat eerie. Suddenly, her hands reached into the air, placed the paper boat on the water, blew on it, and the boat moved forward. She said, "In this life, your path will be even more arduous!"

This must be what the Empress Ruthless looked like when he traveled through the River of Time and placed the ship of the future into the past world.

The Mermaid Saintess had already walked up behind him, but she didn't see what Qian Ye was seeing.

"Ding! Master, you have checked in on the Ghost Ship. Reward: One trip to the future Shrouding the Heavens World to meet the Empress Ruthless!"

The system features a loli voice.

[Travel to the future Shrouding the Heavens World and meet the Empress Ruthless once: once every ten days, at which time the system will automatically take you back to the Perfect World]

Qian Ye laughed, surprised by this reward, and accepted it. Once he finished using the Mermaid Saintess Card, he could use this time travel opportunity to meet the Empress Ruthless of the future Shrouding the Heavens World.

"How about we go inside and take a look?" Qian Ye suggested.

"Go ahead and go see if you're not afraid," the Mermaid Saintess said irritably.

Without saying much, Qian Ye opened the cabin door with a thought and went inside.

Upon seeing this, the Mermaid Saintess also carefully went inside.

Given her strength, she was naturally very careful and vigilant.

Qian Ye quickly arrived at the center of the cabin, where there was nothing but a lingering dark aura.

At this moment, the Mermaid Saintess arrived in front of Qian Ye, glanced at the cabin, and said, "Don't you think it's eerie inside?"

"Oh? I'm bored."

"All right!"

Ta-da!

Suddenly, from the darkness, black chains shot towards the two of them.

The Mermaid Saintess was startled. "I knew it! This legendary Ancient Ghost Ship wasn't as simple as it seemed! But you wouldn't listen. Now look what's happened, we're in grave danger!"

"It's just a barrier, what's the big deal?" Qian Ye immediately released a barrier, enveloping himself and the Mermaid Saintess within it.

Ta-da!

The black chains struck the barrier, but they couldn't penetrate its defenses in the slightest.
