Emperor Grade Nascent Pill Acknowledges a Master!

Everything felt like a dream.

Turning her head slightly, Bibi Dong lay bashfully in Cang Lan's embrace, still unable to believe everything she had experienced.

After all, Cang Lan was the Divine Lord she revered.

He had also been a ray of holy light shining into her darkest abyss!

Being able to become God Lan's disciple and follow by the side of a god should have been enough to satisfy her!

But... having read her teacher's secret diary, other bold thoughts had arisen in her heart.

Until Cang Lan had cleared away the haze shrouding her heart, she had even voiced the impulse within her, prepared for the worst—that he would reject her!

She had never expected that not only would he not reject her.

Instead... she had become her teacher's woman!

At this moment, if not for the faint, throbbing pain within her body feeling so real, she would never have dared imagine that one day, she could become a god's woman!

"Dong'er... how are you adapting?"

Beside her, a faint smile played on Cang Lan's lips as he wrapped an arm around the girl's slender, boneless waist, drawing those intoxicating pink curves even closer before asking softly.

Cang Lan thought to himself.

He had seen his fair share of the world.

Even before coming to the Dou Qi Continent, when he had been blinded unconscious by headlights, he had not retained much of an impression.

Compared to Bibi Dong's proud, heaven-defying beauty, those women built up through cosmetic procedures and artificial enhancements—

Calling them petty tricks before true mastery would not be an exaggeration at all!

Yet... the most ironic part was that those petty tricks were all cosmetic procedures and artificial enhancements. They were useless in practice—fit only to be admired from afar, not touched!

"Teacher... I..."

Hearing this, Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes held a trace of shyness. Looking at the heavy mountain resting upon true mastery, she silently nodded, too embarrassed to say a word...

At the same time, an ineffable, wondrous sensation surged endlessly through her mind.

Like lingering Dao chants!

And like thunder and lightning crashing together.

Carrying a powerful current, it swept through her entire body!

"Dong'er, don't be nervous. Come up first. Your teacher has something to tell you face-to-face..."

Within the Cloud Palace.

The Nine-Colored Spirit Nurturing Lotus emitted a faint fluorescent glow as it floated above the lake formed from gathered heaven and earth energy.

Each gentle opening and closing of its petals sent delicate ripples spreading into the distance!

Again and again, endlessly repeating!

However, several hundred li away from the Cloud Palace, violent energy fluctuations erupted from a hundred-zhang-deep "pit."

Within the "pit," the black-robed old man formed by the Emperor Grade Nascent Pill slowly opened his eyes. He gazed warily into the distance, and a look of confusion suddenly surged onto his face.

"When did such a mysterious expert arrive in the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion?"

The Emperor Grade Nascent Pill could not understand.

With his strength, he should have been the absolute ruler within the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion.

Yet... he had been defeated in a single move.

Without even seeing the face of the one who had attacked him!

The image of that palm like a golden mountain flashed through his mind, making the Emperor Grade Nascent Pill tremble.

Even he could not command that vast power of heaven and earth.

Yet now, a mysterious and unfathomable expert capable of controlling the power of heaven and earth had appeared within the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion.

"Since he knows of my existence, why did he not continue attacking me after suppressing me?"

The Emperor Grade Nascent Pill muttered to himself.

If that golden mountain were to appear once more, he, already at the end of his strength, would absolutely be unable to withstand it. He might even be beaten back to his original form.

Yet the other party had not chosen to continue attacking him. Instead, he had given him time to recover...

"How strange... Could it be that, in his eyes, this old man is not even worth his notice?"

The Emperor Grade Nascent Pill furrowed his brows.

He was one of the last two opportunities for becoming an Emperor on this continent.

If he were outside, given the chance to return him to his original form, countless people would rush toward it.

One had to know that even ten million years ago, any news of an Emperor Pill appearing would shake the entire continent.

Countless powerful experts had fought fiercely to seize the chance to become an Emperor.

Yet in that great being's eyes, it was actually beneath notice!

Could this lord be a great being from a higher plane?

A sudden flash of insight struck his mind. Emperor Grade Nascent Pill's eyes gleamed with wisdom, and he immediately set off, flying toward the white mountain range!

As the grassland sped past beneath him, the white mountain range's true appearance gradually emerged before his eyes.

"This is actually a palace!?"

When Emperor Grade Nascent Pill saw the mountain range in its entirety, shock instantly filled his gaze.

A white jade palace stood level with the heavens, its height unknown, perhaps several thousand zhang!

Its majestic aura left Emperor Grade Nascent Pill utterly dumbstruck.

Viewing the palace from up close, it was clearly several times larger than Exotic Flame Plaza.

And it had simply appeared out of thin air within the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion.

Even without thinking, Emperor Grade Nascent Pill could guess that the palace before him was some kind of secret treasure.

One had to know that Exotic Flame Plaza itself was Tou She Ancient God's weapon, yet it was still somewhat inferior before this white jade palace.

What sort of secret treasure could a palace beyond even a Dou Emperor's weapon be?

Then... just what kind of being was the mysterious expert who possessed such a secret treasure?

"Could he truly have come from beyond the heavens?"

Emperor Grade Nascent Pill muttered to himself.

After leaving behind the Dou Qi Continent's final opportunity to become an Emperor, Tou She Ancient God had directly departed this world.

Other than having come from beyond the heavens, he could think of no other possibility for someone to possess a secret treasure surpassing Exotic Flame Plaza!

"No wonder he did not continue attacking this old man!"

If the mysterious expert had come from beyond the heavens, then his horizons were surely beyond anything Emperor Grade Nascent Pill could compare to.

Perhaps he had long known Emperor Grade Nascent Pill's identity and had merely remained in the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion because of some matter, unwilling to be disturbed.

Otherwise... he would not have set up such a mysterious spatial formation.

"If he is a great being from beyond the heavens, then this will be a tremendous opportunity for this old man!"

Emperor Grade Nascent Pill descended toward the base of the palace, a trace of excitement flashing through his eyes.

If he was a great being from beyond the heavens, then he surely had a way to leave the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion.

Previously, Emperor Grade Nascent Pill had paid a great price to tear open space and help Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame and Nihility Devouring Flame escape, hoping that they could find a way to let him leave the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion.

Now, several thousand years had passed. He had not awaited the two of them, but instead awaited a great being from beyond the heavens!

"Senior, this old man came to inspect the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion and never intended to disturb you. I hope Senior will not take offense!"

Emperor Grade Nascent Pill stood respectfully outside the main hall's doors and waited quietly.

He waited for half a shichen!

"Could it be that he looks down on this old man?"

"Is that why he is unwilling to come out and meet me?"

A look of doubt suddenly rose on Emperor Grade Nascent Pill's face. The longer he waited, the more convinced he became that there was a great opportunity within that he needed.

To blast him down from hundreds of li away, the mysterious expert's methods were already heaven-defying.

Now that he had personally come to pay a visit, the other party could not even be bothered to acknowledge him, clearly not putting him in his eyes at all.

The more it was like this, the more Emperor Grade Nascent Pill felt that the person inside the hall was unfathomably mysterious!

"Emperor Grade Nascent Pill, you are merely a pill that has taken human form. Why have you come to seek this god?"

Before the person arrived, his voice came first!

A god?

Hearing the response from within the hall, excitement flickered in Emperor Grade Nascent Pill's eyes.

The other party had exposed his identity in a single sentence.

And he even dared call himself a god.

He was undoubtedly an unparalleled great being from beyond the heavens.

As long as he could cling to this thigh, leaving this place would be just around the corner!

Perhaps he might even have a chance to reach the longed-for yet unattainable realm of the Dou Emperor!
