Ninth Main Temple.

Ying Long's eyes sparkled as she stared at the Star Map in the void where the spot representing the "Yin Yang Universe" flickered in and out of existence.

When the Yin Yang Daoist disrupted time and space with the Innate Treasure Taiji Diagram, turning the entire universe into a great furnace, the connection between the Main Temple and the Yin Yang Universe was severed.

"What a huge pitfall!" Inside the great light sphere at the center of the Main Temple, [Main God] Ying Long was holding the Cangxuan Pearl in her hand.

The Yin Yang Universe was a world that the Dragon Clan had only recently explored, and several squads they sent in for training had ended in failure.

"Who would have thought that with the Dawn Squad and Jiuge Squad there, they would all get wiped out in one fell swoop?" Ying Long showed a look of regret.

The Dawn Squad and Jiuge Squad were the trump cards of the Ninth Main Temple, and she was quite optimistic about them.

The reason was simple.

Other squads had, more or less, shown some of their hands, but these two squads kept their backgrounds hidden from Ying Long.

However, based on the experiences of these two squads on previous missions, Ying Long was almost certain that they were not there to cause trouble, but truly abided by the rules and earnestly contributed to the Main Temple.

Ying Long didn't intervene, pretending not to know that peers were involved.

Missions were exceptionally issued, and rewards were given out as usual.

Both sides cooperated perfectly.

After all, for the Dragon Clan, although the Main Temple was used to promote the grand scheme of the Dragons,

as long as others didn't intentionally cause trouble targeting the Dragon Clan, they would not oppose other deities coming to have fun.

Think of it as providing an entertainment platform.

Everyone was just out to have a good time, aiming for enjoyment.

No one should make it difficult for anyone else; if you're happy and I'm happy, everyone is happy.

In this way, Daoists play happily, and the Dragon Clan earns with peace of mind.

Truly a win-win situation.

It was just unexpected that the pit of the Yin Yang Universe was so deep that it "trapped" Ying Long's two most favored squads at once.

"Actually, this Impermanence Squad is also quite good; they must be other Daoists coming to have fun."

Perceiving that the Yin Yang Universe showed signs of collapse, as if the entire world was on the brink of destruction,

Ying Long estimated that Xuanqing and the others were probably beyond salvation.

"Fortunately, I had a contingency in place this time, allowing them to descend in the form of possession, giving them a chance to be retrieved."

At the moment when the Yin Yang Daoist began the re-refinement of Yin Yang, the point on the Star Map representing the Yin Yang Universe completely dimmed.

Ying Long knew it was time to take action and rescue them.

She held the Cangxuan Pearl, and with an icy, mechanical tone, she announced:

"Mission World: Yin Yang Universe."

"Main Quest: Chaos in Yin Yang."

"The Impermanence Squad, Jiuge Squad, Dawn Squad's mission... Huh?"

Ying Long's eyes returned to the Star Map; the just-dimmed Yin Yang Universe suddenly flickered again, with its light growing more and more intense.

The Main Temple had reestablished contact with the Yin Yang Universe.

A smile appeared on Ying Long's face.

"Mission completed perfectly, squads return."

~~~~

"Are we returning just like that?"

Inside the Main Temple, the light gradually rose.

Ming River looked around; there were seven of them, no more, no less.

"Everything that needed to be arranged has been arranged. Why stay in the Yin Yang Universe?" Xuanqing comfortably twisted his neck.

After killing the Yin Yang Daoist, everyone worked together to repair the damaged Yin Yang Universe.

At the same time, they also improved the World Law a bit, enhancing the cultivation environment of this universe.

After all, although the Black and White List was quite exploitative, it did raise the cap of the universe and objectively promoted the birth of high-level cultivators.

Now that the Black and White List was gone, they couldn't let the beings of this universe regress, could they?

Zhen Yuanzi resettled the universe's beings.

Then they altered the memories of all beings regarding this battle.

Finally, they left behind an Ascension legend.

That was about everything.

Additionally, this trip was also quite fruitful for Xuanqing.

Li Ming had slain the Yin Yang Daoist once.

It was an indirect way to avenge the last time Ming River was tricked.

And they had snatched the Innate Yin Yang Qi of the Taiji Diagram.

More importantly, Xuanqing made two new Daoist friends.

"Captain, I got a lot of Merit Points! A full thirty thousand!"

Nuwa's eyes shone with surprise as she looked up at Xuanqing, her face beaming with a brilliant smile.

"Captain, how many Merit Points did you get?"

"Me?"

Xuanqing was confronted with some Daoist scriptures.

"50,000 Merit Points, and some spiritual materials... huh, why is there also an egg?"

"An egg?" Ruoxi asked curiously.

Then, a golden, shimmering egg appeared in Xuanqing's hand.

"Why doesn't it say what type it is?"

Xuanqing looked at the Golden Egg in his hand with puzzlement. It was a special reward from the Main God, simply labeled "One Egg."

Even within the Chaos inside the egg, Xuanqing couldn't discern which clan it came from.

Li Ming also tallied up his rewards.

A green seed appeared in his hand.

This was also a special reward.

Seeing Xuanqing's baffled expression, Li Ming explained, "This is a feature of the Divine Palace. After completing high-difficulty tasks, the Main God gives each squad leader a mysterious reward."

"These are probably creations of the Main God and can grow into some really strange things."

"Take this Golden Egg back and incubate it, maybe you'll be pleasantly surprised."

When mentioning the word "pleasant surprise," Xuanqing keenly noticed a hint of schadenfreude in Li Ming's smile.

At that moment, Zhen Yuanzi too received a special reward in his hand—a black gourd.

"Eh? Another black gourd?" Zhen Yuanzi showed a troubled expression as if recalling some unpleasant memory.

Obviously, this wasn't the first time Zhen Yuanzi had received such a reward.

His gaze turned to Great Fate Master, earnestly saying, "Daoist friend, I've already gotten one last time, how about I give this one to you?"

"Since it's a reward for Daoist friend, you should keep it," Great Fate Master said with pursed lips, gently declining with a smile.

Zhen Yuanzi looked towards Red Cloud.

Red Cloud was standing sideways towards him, her eyes fixated on a large pillar in the Main Temple, displaying an interested demeanor.

She seemed to be trying to read something interesting from the pillar.

Seeing this, Zhen Yuanzi had no choice but to keep the reward.

"Since black is bad, gold should be good, right?" Xuanqing mused to himself, his luck always being quite good.

Golden, which meant a creature of legend.

Yes, that must be it!

~~~~~

Piaomiao Great World.

Meng Wuyou, who had parted ways with Xuanqing and the others, was undertaking tasks in this world.

She promptly moved to the Sixth Main Temple after discovering that the Main God of the Ninth Main Temple was one of the Jiuxiao, Danxiao Yinglong.

And then, Meng Wuyou met Nuwa there.

Or, to be more precise, she encountered a member of the Mythical Squad—Feng Lixi.

"You've already obtained the God Slaying Order?"

In front of a large tomb in the Central Mountain Range, Meng Wuyou and Nuwa met again.

"Of course."

Nuwa looked at Meng Wuyou with a smile brimming with mirth.

"What's with that expression every time you see me, as if you're keeping me at bay?"

"What do you mean every time? We've just met, Daoist Feng Lixi."

Meng Wuyou responded indifferently, "Could it be that you have memory issues?"

"Not at all, my memory is exceptionally good."

Nuwa shook her head, "For example, in the Su Guang Field, a certain Divine being was robbed seven times in a row."

"This matter, I never forget for a moment."

"Oh? Is that so?"

Meng Wuyou casually responded, "Then do you remember, 'Great Dream of a Thousand Autumns' over three thousand years?"

"Uh, of course, I remember."

Nuwa's smile remained unchanged, "How could I forget such an event that saw the two of us forging a deep friendship."

"Yes, the friendship is indeed deep."

Meng Wuyou smiled as well.

[So scary]

Behind Meng Wuyou, a shy young man shrank back.

This was Wangchuan.

Not far from him, a refined Divine was nonchalantly enjoying the scenery.

"The Piaomiao Great World really has a pleasing landscape!"
