After half a month, Lu Quanzhen reached the Immortal City on the island, ready to collect in-depth details about the [Kunpeng’s Nest] and restock his supply of elixir pills and talismans.
But right after he stepped onto the land and stepped inside the city, a sudden sensation hit him, prompting him to gaze upward at the sky.
There appeared a brilliant and splendid beam of light, resembling a rainbow piercing the heavens, which plunged straight down onto the Fourth Rank Grand Array of the island.
"Xu Xuanz, come out here for me!"
A chilling and commanding voice echoed across the skies and the ground.
Outside the island’s formation, the red glow slowly faded away, uncovering a breathtaking woman clad in a lavish red gown, evoking the image of a peony flourishing amid blazing red fires.
Her face glowed faintly and vaguely, her features resembling flowers viewed through fog or the moon's reflection in water, hard to discern sharply, though her refined and pale traits hinted at peerless allure.
Her stature stood particularly lofty and elegant, with flowing dark hair tumbling over her shoulders, partially covering her form and partially cascading to her elevated, curvaceous hips, like the finest silk imaginable.
The crimson attire, crafted as if from sunset clouds and phoenix tail plumes, blended seamlessly with the world around her, bathing her flawless silhouette in an ethereal, illusory radiance.
Though her face and body were veiled in enigma, difficult to perceive fully, whether intentional or not, the bold swell of her chest appeared set to rupture, exposing hints of flesh as white as snow and sleek as jade.Below her slim waist, the red skirt parted up to the thigh, and with the wind's touch, the edges fluttered, now and then unveiling a tempting glimpse of snowy skin that captivated onlookers, drawing them to imagine what lay hidden beneath her garments.
"Nascent Soul True Lord!"
Lu Quanzhen stared at this mature and seductive beauty, his heart racing wildly as he recognized her as an unrivaled seductress!
Still, he swiftly regained his calm, refusing to entertain even a trace of irreverence.
Nascent Soul True Lord!
This lady was a Nascent Soul True Lord!
And the Xu Xuanz she called out was the master of this island, a Nascent Soul cultivator as well.
Her boldness in challenging a Nascent Soul True Lord showed her immense standing and strength.
Lu Quanzhen could only lament his misfortune, hardly anticipating such a spectacle mere moments after arriving.
Should these two Nascent Soul cultivators clash, the island might not submerge, but chaos would surely erupt, possibly leading to a lockdown of the entire place.
"Who dares to address the island master directly like that!"
"Nascent Soul True Lord, it’s a Nascent Soul True Lord!"
"This lady looks like the Second Palace Master of Penglai Island’s Goddess Palace, the ’Jade-faced Demon’ Shen Baishuang!"
Not just Lu Quanzhen, but every cultivator on Xu Xuan Island jolted at this presence and shout, turning their eyes skyward and murmuring in astonishment.
Countless individuals found themselves mesmerized by the woman’s enticing yet blurry appearance and shape, her dominance crushing their minds, rendering their souls vulnerable.
"I pay respects to Shen Palace Master. Might I inquire what occasion brings your grace to our Xu Xuan Island? I will inform the ancestor at once."
At once, a Core Formation cultivator soared forward, saluting the red-clad woman from across the formation, avoiding her gaze lest his spirit shatter under her influence and lead to his demise.
"No need for such ceremonies!"
The woman in red advanced with a gentle stride, her calves resembling jade from mutton fat, fitted in ornate shoes that mimicked evening clouds in the firmament.
The intricate designs on those shoes appeared to bloom with a hundred flowers and soar with spiritual birds, creating a red shimmer that lent an opulently regal air to her voluptuous, passionate form.
Her statement unleashed a supreme Nascent Soul-level pressure upon the island’s formation, stirring massive waves across every part of the island, with the hazy spiritual glow of the array trembling and booming.
In the following instant.
"Shen Baishuang, what affair draws you to my Xu Xuan Island!"
A venerable voice, booming like a massive bell, spread out, filling the heavens and earth with grave dignity.
Xu Xuanz!
All recognized this tone as belonging to the island’s lord!
"This woman is the Second Palace Master of Goddess Palace, Shen Baishuang?"
Lu Quanzhen cast another look at the red-dressed woman above, feeling a touch of surprise within.
Having dwelled in the Starry Sky Sea for years, he possessed fair knowledge of local affairs.
And among the premier forces, Penglai Island and Goddess Palace stood out prominently.
The Great Palace Master, Shen Jianjia, ranked among the elite Nascent Soul experts in the Starry Sky Sea!
Her cultivation ran deep, and her stunning looks had earned her widespread fame; in her earlier days, she drew pursuits from the foremost Demon Cultivator of the Starry Sky Sea, the Six Path Demon Lord, and the leading alchemist there.
The Second Palace Master, Shen Baishuang.
Though her might fell short of her sibling Shen Jianjia, she boasted incomparable elegance, achieving Nascent Soul breakthrough a century back, her reputation echoing across the Starry Sky Sea much like her sister’s.
Furthermore, beyond Goddess Palace’s support, the former Manor Master of Sword Casting Manor had journeyed to Goddess Palace to seek a union for his son Lin Yuanting with this Second Palace Master.
Hence, this Second Palace Master enjoyed the shield of not just Goddess Palace but also Sword Casting Manor, yet another Nascent Soul power, rendering her nearly invincible!
"I recall this Shen Second Palace Master attained Nascent Soul only a hundred years past—why confront Xu Xuan Island now?"
"You’ve surely heard of this Second Palace Master’s notoriety; they call her ’Rouge Tiger’, ’Jade-faced Demon’, known for slaughter and total destruction."
"Ever since her Nascent Soul breakthrough, any faction daring to cross her in Penglai Island’s territory has faced complete annihilation at her hands—the most notorious case was forty years ago, involving a group tied to Sword Casting Manor, where her spouse Lin Yuanting stepped in and ended up severely wounded by her..."
"Hiss, that’s brutal? I thought her husband was a Nascent Soul True Lord too?"
From the moment this Second Palace Master entered Nascent Soul, she’s stirred up the Starry Sky Sea actively, fueling a wealth of tales.
