<h4>Chapter 1036 - Perpetual Nirvana</h4>


    Trantor: BOTA Fireteam


    "No problem… There won''t be a problem at all. Nobody in the Divine Moon Realm in the past two million years has managed to achieve such a miraculous result ever before! In terms of talent, you might reign at the top if we don''t include the Ninemoon Goddess. Her situation is different, though, since she started proper cultivation far toote in life," Prince Fengyue praised. Like Sister Yin from the inn, he seemed to like Tianming the more he saw him.


    "It was so-so. Hardly difficult," Tianming said.


    "And that spunk!" Fengyue shot him a thumbs-up. He knew Sovereign Xi loved young men with strong personalities. Turning to Yuehe, he said, "This Li Tianming is of far better quality than I anticipated. We’ll consider it a boon the Huiyue n has rendered us. From now on, we’ll give you enough resources to cultivate your descendants and beyond!"


    "Thank you, Your Highness!" Yuehe immediately knelt and prostrated herself.


    "Your Highness, I heard Her Majesty is looking for me. When are we departing for Divine Moon Skycity?" Tianming asked, getting straight to the point. Since he was going to go there sooner orter, there was no sense in dying the inevitable.


    "Why’re you in such a rush? We''ll leave tomorrow."


    "I''m not the one in a rush… I think Her Majesty might be though."


    "Hahaha!" the princeughed heartily. "He''s only seventeen? Sublime!"


    For someone at his age to dare to say something as scandalous as that was rare indeed.


    "This child has a way with words. You managed to pinpoint where he belongs on the hierarchy, so now that he''s assuming his rightful ce, you’d do well to serve him from now on," Fengyue said to Yuehe.


    "Understood!"


    Fengyue tasked Yuehe to take good care of Tianming and went about the preparations. Before the prince left, he turned back and looked at Tianming while he was surrounded by a flurry of people. I wonder if this is a blessing or a curse… These young men all face the same fate. Yet when it''s their turn to enter the harem, they still think they''ve hit the jackpot. Huiyue Jie managed to see through the facade, but it''s a shame that he’s no more. Now that the disaster has changed its target, nobody will be able to escape. Thank goodness that I''m her younger brother and not someone unrted by blood.


    ……


    Meanwhile at Duyue Mansion.


    "You''re free now! Leave Huiyue City tonight and head to the meyellow Continent with Ling''er. Don''t ever return without my say so, lest you affect my ns," Tianming said.


    "You bastard!" Huiye Shi said, ring at him.


    "Hey, cease the senseless allegations! Do you even know why I''m heading to Divine Moon Skycity in the first ce? If your life wasn’t threatened, I wouldn''t have bothereding back that soon!"


    She already knew about his ns for Ye Lingfeng, so she knew he was bound to return sooner orter. "Oh? And I''m supposed to be touched, right? Why don''t I thank you with my body then?"


    "Stay away, capisce?"


    "Fine, fine. I''ll leave in a bit."


    "I won''t be seeing you off then."


    She took a few steps away and turned back. "I suspect you''re just using this chance as an excuse to get rid of Ling''er and marry up instead. Disgusting!"


    "Your imagination knows no bounds!" Tianming was exasperated that she could even think of something like that.


    "Just a word of caution. That old wench isn''t a good person by any stretch," Huiye Shi said.


    "Isn''t she your idol?"


    "No way! Every time I hear her name now, I want to puke. That shameless evil whore!"


    Tianming knew that Huiye Shi had always been a little… different… so he let her be. He had fulfilled his obligation bying to see her spared, and that was enough.


    ……


    At dawn the next day, Fengyue personally took Tianming to the central area of the Divine Moon Realm—the capital, Divine Moon Skycity. As Bodhi was still roaming around, Fengyue traveled with Tianming alone to keep a low profile. After dropping Tianming off, he still had to return to Huiyue City to deal with the aftermath of Bodhi’s ughter.


    Before Tianming even went to Huiyue City, the hostess Sister Yin had already reported his whereabouts to the authorities, so when Tianming and Fengyue showed up, there were a lot of people weing them. The sheer size of that ''parade'' was a sign of how much Sovereign Xi treasured him and a sign of his future status in the Divine Moon Realm. While he didn''t think too much of it, he wouldn’t hesitate to exploit it for his own convenience.


    "Looks like Her Majesty is here to wee you. You’re the only one to provoke such a response, despite the many others who’ve joined the harem over the centuries," Fengyue remarked.


    Tianming saw a grand pnquin amidst the huge crowd, hoisted by close to a hundred people. It was a grand show indeed. The rumored sovereign must be within it. Fengyue brought him straight to the pnquin. At that moment, all eyes fell straight on Tianming as chatter broke out.


    He scanned the whole ce, seeing gazes of envy, admiration, and doubt. At the very least, they could tell from his aura alone that he was no normal person. The huge crowd immediately fell silent when the person within the pnquin made a light hum. Then azily seductive female voice came ringing from within.


    "Come in. Our shoulders need rubbing."


    That voice was so intoxicating that hearing the sentence alone was enough to make many a man drunk. The envious gazes Tianming felt grew even stronger.


    "Go ahead," Fengyue said, giving him a light push.


    Tianming wasn''t the least bit afraid. Be it human, fiend, or tiger, he would face it all the same. He swiftly boarded the pnquin.


    "Bring us back to the pce," said the sovereign. The pnquin immediately began moving, apanied by the grand parade. The sovereign returned to the city, satisfied.


    ……


    On a tree located far away from the city were three girls who witnessed the whole procession.


    "It''s over! Once he''s in there, he''ll never escape! He''s probably already serving that old whore now!" Huiye Shi said with a worried look.


    "Stop making things up. Tianming isn’t a pushover," Lin Xiaoxiao said.


    "Sigh, you simply don''t know how alluring that whore is! Legend says that no man is able to resist her allure. She has more than enough tricks to break him! Every single one of her husbands strives to get her attention and time! Those that join her harem will even kneel and lick her toes if they have to!" Huiye Shi said as she shot Feiling a pitiful look.


    "Just stop making things up, alright?" Lin Xiaoxiao said.


    "It''s fine if you don''t believe me. I wouldn''t bother lying to you about this."


    "Ling''er, don''t listen to her. Tianming can take care of himself."


    Feiling merely watched without saying a word.


    "Will we simply be waiting here?" Huiye Shi asked.


    "I can take you down first beforeing back," Lin Xiaoxiao said.


    "Forget it, I''ll stay and apany Ling''er. Sigh, how pitiful. I know you love each other so much that even I wasn''t able to squeeze in, but it might not be the case with that whore!"


    "Just shut up, won''t you?"


    "Alright. The more I say the more worried I get anyway."


    Then, Feiling turned around abruptly. Her gaze was sharp and piercing and her stern expression even seemed to shift as a cold aura began emanating from her.


    "Ling''er…" Huiye Shi nked out. She knew that Feiling was entering that weird state of mind once more. Even though she seemed to have recovered after the Moonsoul Blooddragon came off, that terrifying look of hers was back! And this time, it showed no sign of receding.


    The two watched as the aura of a divine being grew thicker and thicker around Feiling. Then, patterns representing Perpetia appeared on her body. She had been holding a branch in her left hand, but almost instantly, the whole tree disintegrated into ashes that immediately scattered.


    "What''s going on?!"


    Both Lin Xiaoxiao and Huiye Shi backed away in fear.


    "There''s some kind of apex divine being dwelling in her body! Or rather, she’s that very same being! I knew we shouldn''t have provoked her," the Archaionfiend said.


    Lin Xiaoxiao waspletely speechless. She wasn''t able to approach at all as what she thought was Feiling turned to look at Divine Moon Skycity.


    "Blood…" Huiye Shi shrieked. From where she was, she noticed that Feiling''s back seemed to be bleeding. The fresh blood seeped through her clothes, dying her entire back red. It was as if there was something trying to break out of her body.


    "Ling''er, snap out of it! Are you conscious?!" Lin Xiaoxiao cried out in worry.


    "I… am. My head… hurts…" Feiling was still in the same state and spoke in a cold tone. However, she seemed to at least be conscious of her actions.


    "What do we do?"


    "Nothing." Feiling stretched her fingers out before her eyes. Her nails sparkled beautifully.


    "The first Perpetual Nirvana has begun. It turns out that Xuanyuan Xi died during the same thing. There are three in total, but she didn''t evenst through one. Now it''s my turn. Only by being reborn through Perpetual Nirvana can I live on perpetually…"


    She could hear every single albus in her body shaking. In that instant, her whole arm turned into snow-like crystal powder, shocking the other two so much that they shrieked.


    Feiling furrowed her brow in a look of considerable suffering. Was her arm gone just like that? The next instant, the billions of fine powder fragments reassembled themselves into her arm. Her new arm seemed glossy and strengthened.


    A series of nonstop destruction and reassembly urred. Throughout the entire process, the stellunar source of the entire Divine Moon Realm seemed to be devoured, gathering towards her arm. Then her head burst into white crystal powder and soon reformed. She turned to look at Lin Xiaoxiao, who saw countless stars in her eyes. It looked like there was a whole universe in each of them.
