Within the painting, a staircase unfolded—a spiraling ascent stretching infinitely beyond view. The Path to Immortality! Yao Meng silently gazed at the scene, noticing a young man clad in black and gold robes appearing at the base of the Path to Immortality. Other cultivators couldn't perceive the painting's contents, but as the reigning Empress, Yao Meng was, of course, an exception. ... "For me, this test might actually be a good thing. After all, going outside now risks being caught and split up by Ruoxi and the others... But if I endure a great battle here, maybe sustain some injuries and play the victim... the issue might be easier to solve." Mu Zhi’an looked up at the winding jade staircase before him, secretly grumbling to himself. As expected of a domain created by a mighty union powerhouse, this celestial realm appeared exceedingly real, surrounded by swirling clouds as if set in a paradise outside the mundane world. At the end of the Path to Immortality, there seemed to be a sacred, low chanting, calming even the most restless hearts. This heavenly realm was almost identical to the one I saw before... Mu Zhi'an closed his eyes slightly, feeling the dense spiritual energy saturating this small world. Such a concentration of spiritual energy gave a refreshing sensation, as if every pore were opening wide. Without a doubt, this was indeed the spiritual energy of the heavens! It would be wonderful if I could bring the girls with me to this heavenly realm... Mu Zhi'an suddenly thought. Once ascended to this celestial realm, there would be no more threats from the limits of longevity, and one could indulge every night... Lingxuan and Qian’er would embrace each other at the bedside, then turn their affectionate gazes towards someone, awaiting his favor. Senior Sister and Sister Feiying, a pair of sisters, one cold and one warm, were most alluring. Just imagining sleeping with them was enticing enough. As for Mengrou, she was actually more suited to being alone, teasing the aloof maid until she blushed in embarrassment... Yao Meng was unpredictable; sometimes, in bed, she'd let Mu Zhi'an have his way, yet other times, she'd summon vines to bind him, reversing their roles. ...Of course, on reflection, any style actually seemed quite appealing. Ruoxi, with her two spiritual consciousnesses, inherently possessed two different styles, even in demeanor and physique... in fact, better suited to being alone. While indulging in these fantasies of future delights, the staircase before him subtly altered, revealing a vague, graceful figure. Dressed in a moon-white long dress, wearing small white boots, she descended the stairs elegantly. Her slender, tight figure, accentuated by her dress, was captivating, while her attire barely concealed the perfect fairness of her form. Her face was chilly, but her body exuded a maturity and sensuality no young girl could possess. “Senior Sister?” Mu Zhi’an exclaimed in surprise. But soon he realized something was amiss. They should have entered this domain simultaneously, and if Lan Muling had entered, she couldn’t have walked down from the higher steps. Quickly, Mu Zhi’an noticed the surrounding scenery changing silently. What entered his vision was no longer the Path to Immortality but a grand, divine palace. This should be deep within the celestial realm... But why am I here without facing any trials? Mu Zhi’an glanced around, soon spotting a large circular bed within the palace's depths, where the Lan sisters sat together, their arms entwined. Lan Feiying’s eyes glistened seductively, staring directly at him, her fiery red cheongsam outlining her alluring curves. Beside her, Lan Muling wore a moon-white dress, pure as a fairy. The exquisite Lan sisters were gazing up at Mu Zhi’an with moist eyes, seemingly awaiting the young man’s favor. Outside the painting, Yao Meng watched this scene with calm emerald eyes and remarked casually, "There's actually an illusion set within the domain? Do you think this test can truly block him?" Ye Qingxin pursed her sensual red lips, chuckling softly, "Whether it can stop him doesn’t depend on your words but his own willpower." "However, judging from the current situation, most people probably won't pass this level." As Ye Qingxin spoke, her gaze focused on the painting before her. What was impenetrable to others was fully visible to her, the scenes every participant of the trial experienced clearly in her view. These gifted individuals, though talented, struggled to resist their deepest desires. In less than half a moment, the images before Ye Qingxin began to dim one after another. Each dimmed painting signaled the failure of a disciple's trial. As Mu Zhi’an finally lost his composure and bent down to kiss the veiled ice beauty in his arms, a faint smile curled on Ye Qingxin’s lips as she cast a sideways glance at the Qing Emperor beside her. “It seems that even with a perfect partner like Fairy Yao Meng, Young Friend Mu isn’t easily satisfied…” "Though the women he knows are indeed exceptionally beautiful, Fairy Yao Meng needn't mind too much," Ye Qingxin laughed. It seemed Ye Yu was right; Mu Zhi’an really was a sensualist. But thinking about it, it's understandable. With so much temptation around, and being in this domain where it’s hard to hide one’s thoughts, such visions aren’t surprising. Who would have thought Yao Meng would laugh lightly, “It’s good that he has beautiful women around him.” Only when Mu Zhi’an had beautiful women around did she feel more content. Ye Qingxin would never understand that logic. But even so, watching him get intimate with other women is quite disconcerting... Seeing Mu Zhi’an in the image already nestled with the sisters, Yao Meng pursed her alluring red lips. Her slender fingers gently pressed against her chest, feeling the ripple of emotion and a strong dissatisfaction, causing her to slightly tilt her head in curiosity. Am I... jealous? ... The scene shifted again, with Mu Zhi’an appearing in another palace, poised to continue the intimate scenario. Ye Qingxin observed, then cast Yao Meng a glance. This partner Fairy Yao Meng chose appeared to hide quite a few women in his heart... Did the Qing Emperor know of this, or was he unaware? It seems likely he’s unaware...? Seeing Yao Meng slightly press her lips and her eyes showing complexity, Ye Qingxin understood and spoke, “Everyone has suppressed desires, and this domain’s first trial amplifies them, even projecting fantasies before them. Fairy Yao Meng needn’t be too concerned.” Yao Meng quickly shook off her thoughts, smiling faintly, “I know it’s just a trial, but isn’t this scene from his past fantasies?” “Still, I’m unaffected,” Yao Meng continued. Ye Qingxin smiled, “As long as Fairy Yao Meng can see through it.” Saying this, seeing one’s chosen partner intimately with others would undeniably elicit strange feelings, wouldn’t it? Judging from Yao Meng’s earlier expression, it was clear what she was contemplating. However, this farce should almost be over. The duration a vision is maintained in this domain is determined by a cultivator's spiritual consciousness. The stronger the consciousness, the longer the vision can persist; typically, sustaining it for one incense stick’s time is the limit. Mu Zhi’an had already sustained it for nearly a quarter of an hour; such spiritual consciousness was indeed extraordinary. But calculating the time, Mu Zhi’an shouldn’t last beyond another incense stick— Just as Ye Qingxin thought this, she heard the fairy beside her chuckle lightly, as if seeing something amusing. Ye Qingxin raised an eyebrow and looked at the painting before her. At a glance, her gaze froze. At this moment, the palace had altered once more, revealing a woman on the white bed. Dressed in a black and red interwoven gown, she resembled a witch cloaked in flames, authoritative and elegantly curved, her feet adorned with refined black embroidered shoes, her full chest proudly accentuating her attire, shaping the fabric into a round, upright form. From the side, one could vaguely discern her fair complexion. Currently, Mu Zhi’an held her slender hand and, quite enthusiastically, bent down to remove her embroidered shoe, unveiling delicate, jade-like feet. Yao Meng, eyes filled with laughter, gazed at Ye Qingxin, whose demeanor was slightly uneasy, commenting, "This is merely an amplification of suppressed desires, not to be taken too seriously." Ye Qingxin, after a brief silence, smiled softly and said, “Your partner is certainly full of thoughts.” She never expected that while using the domain to test disciples and watching several performances, she herself would end up as one of the main characters... At this moment, the scene shifted abruptly. Mu Zhi'an subdued the woman who resembled a fiery witch, holding her delicate wrist, kissing her cheek, and then slowly, skillfully, wrapping his arm around her waist. Initially just kissing, Mu Zhi’an gradually became more audacious... Ye Qingxin bit her lip, her consciousness shaken, her cheeks burning. An hour later. Watching Mu Zhi’an leave the celestial palace with a refreshed demeanor, Ye Qingxin fell into silent contemplation. “What do you think?” came Yao Meng’s soft voice from beside her. Ye Qingxin paused in thought, then nodded slightly, “He did pass this first trial of the domain…” “But the real challenge cannot be overcome by such opportunism…” Others relied on willpower to reject the fantasies in their minds, thereby passing the trial. But who would have thought that Mu Zhi’an chose to follow his inner desires, offering no resistance whatsoever, even indulging in playful “VR games” with Ye Qingxin right before this Empress, trying out various poses in the process? Until Mu Zhi’an entered a satisfied state of calmness, thus naturally passing the trial… Looking at the tattered black and red garments beside the bed in the painting and the bashful Ye Qingxin within it, the Empress on the Ascension Platform was ashamed, wanting to cover her face, almost throwing Mu Zhi’an out of the domain in exasperation. However, passing this test did not guarantee passing the second. After all, the second trial only had one way to be conquered. As the amorous and sweet scene in the painting gradually faded, Ye Qingxin composed herself, her gaze lingering on Mu Zhi’an within the painting. At this very moment, Mu Zhi’an had arrived at the second trial of the domain. Before him stood a grand celestial gate, crafted from bronze, vast and ancient, exuding an aura as if it bridged heaven and earth. Yao Meng raised a finely arched eyebrow, her gaze flickering as she observed the grand gate within the painting. She sensed something peculiar about this gate. She had once traversed the Path to Immortality and seen that gate, making her familiar with this celestial gate depicted in the painting before her. At that moment, she sensed an identical presence, as if it were the true celestial gate within this domain! Thinking of something, Yao Meng slightly turned her head to gaze at Ye Qingxin's elegant visage. “You linked the celestial gate to this domain?” No wonder Ye Qingxin was so confident... Even the most talented person couldn’t pass this trial. Those disciples who underwent the trial could receive immense celestial fortune if they passed the first trial. But the second trial was never meant for these cultivators! Ye Qingxin’s descent to the mortal realm primarily had one purpose: the Celestial Lord. And the only person who could open the gate without any rules was... —The Celestial Lord! If Ye Yu could pass the first trial, he’d naturally encounter Mu Zhi’an before the celestial gate, giving them a fair chance to compete. That was Ye Qingxin’s true intent. Faced with Yao Meng’s question, Ye Qingxin simply smiled gracefully without responding. This woman surely has orchestrated a lot... Yao Meng quietly withdrew her gaze, her eyes clear and tranquil as she steadily watched Mu Zhi’an. Though somewhat surprised, she had faith in Mu Zhi’an, believing he could deal with Ye Yu even if they crossed paths. And in retrospect, today's visit was worthwhile, offering her many entertaining scenes. For instance, the intimate moments between Mu Zhi’an and other girls, and the scenes where he made the Qing Emperor assume embarrassing poses or teased her. Under their gazes, Mu Zhi’an unknowingly approached the celestial gate. He slowly extended his hand, lightly touching the gate of the celestial realm. He closed his eyes, seemingly brewing something within. Meanwhile, on the Ascension Platform in reality, Ye Qingxin glanced nonchalantly at a particular painting, feeling a bit pleased upon seeing Ye Yu, who had passed the first trial and was now ascending the staircase.
