Genius in the whole system: The useless young lady dominates the world

After leaving Sunset Valley, Lu Lingxi was preoccupied with worries. She had to return to the Azure Sky Temple, hoping to find clues about her parents from her master.

She turned to Feng Qingxue and Bai Ze behind her and said, "I have to go back to the Azure Sky Temple to take care of some things. You two settle down in Fengyin City first, and I'll come find you after I've finished dealing with these matters."

Feng Qingxue nodded slightly to show her understanding. A hint of worry flashed in Bai Ze's eyes. He hesitated to speak, but ultimately silently accepted Lu Lingxi Yao's arrangement.

Back at the Celestial Palace, Immortal Venerable Yunyin saw that Lu Lingxi's aura was stable and her spiritual power was abundant. He stroked his beard with satisfaction and said, "It seems that you have gained a lot from this training."

Lu Lingxi Yao cut to the chase, "Master, do you know Yueying Jiuge?"

The Cloud-Hidden Immortal's expression shifted slightly as he fell into reminiscence. He slowly said, "Jiuge is my junior sister, and also the youngest disciple of Shangguan Qian, the founder of the Azure Sky Divine Palace. She is exceptionally intelligent and possesses extremely high comprehension. Given time, her achievements will surely surpass mine. It's just a pity..."

He paused, a hint of regret in his voice, "She fell in love with a man and disappeared for many years. Later, I heard that she sacrificed herself to the god of darkness to save her people."

Lu Lingxi's heart sank, and an indescribable sadness welled up inside her. She fought back her tears and continued to ask, "And then what happened?"

The Cloud-Hidden Immortal Venerable's tone was low and somber. "Later, a man named Lu Lingchenxuan found the temple, and that's when I learned that he was Jiuge's lover. I told him about Jiuge's sacrifice, and he... he went mad, recklessly entering the endless void, and never returned..."

As Yunyin Immortal Venerable spoke, his expression became somewhat dazed. He looked at Lu Lingxi Yao and suddenly seemed to realize something, his eyes widening sharply: "Lu Lingchenxuan... Lu Lingxi Yao... You, you are actually Jiuge's daughter?!"

His expression shifted from shock to grief, and finally to an indescribable complexity. He reached out his trembling hand, wanting to touch Lu Lingxi, but stopped in mid-air.

His voice was hoarse, "My disciple, you've suffered so much..."

Lu Lingxi finally couldn't hold back her tears and knelt down in front of Immortal Venerable Yunyin with a thud, choking out, "Master, I want to save them! Please tell me, what should I do?"

Immortal Venerable Yunyin sighed, helped Lu Lingxi Yao up, and gently stroked her hair: "Disciple, I understand your feelings. The endless void is extremely dangerous; even I cannot enter it. However..."

He paused, "Legend has it that the Seventh Realm, the Illusionary Sea Continent, might have a way to enter the endless void, but that's just a legend, and even I can't guarantee it."

The Seventh Realm, the Illusionary Sea Continent… Lu Lingxi silently memorized the name. A glimmer of hope ignited in her heart. Even if there was only a sliver of hope, she would give it a try.

Lu Lingxi wiped away her tears, her eyes resolute. "Master, I want to go to the Illusionary Sea Continent. How do I get there?"

Immortal Venerable Yunyin looked at her, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes, "The teleportation array to the Illusionary Sea Continent is located in the forbidden area—Soul-Falling Cliff."

"The Fallen Soul Cliff?" Lu Lingxi's heart tightened. It was said that the place was filled with extremely heavy Yin energy, various dangerous spirit beasts, and strange formations.

Immortal Venerable Yunyin nodded. “That’s right, Fallen Soul Cliff. There is an ancient teleportation array there that leads to the Seventh Realm. But activating the teleportation array requires three things: a Celestial Star Stone, an Earth Vein Essence, and… a blood sacrifice.”

"Blood sacrifice?" Lu Lingxi's face turned pale instantly. Blood sacrifice, that requires the blood of living people to perform a ritual!

Immortal Venerable Yunyin's expression also turned solemn. "That's right, blood sacrifice. Moreover, it must be the blood of someone with a pure spiritual root."

He looked at Lu Lingxi, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes, "Disciple, your spiritual root is exceptionally pure, making you the best offering..."

Lu Lingxi asked thoughtfully, "Master, how exactly should we obtain the Heavenly Star Stone and the Earth Vein Essence?"

With a gentle wave of his sleeve, Immortal Venerable Yunyin revealed a map of light and shadow. He pointed to a place shrouded in mist and said, "The Celestial Star Stone is located at the summit of Tianji Peak, a place perpetually covered in ice and snow and protected by powerful restrictions. Only on the night of a full moon, with the help of moonlight, can the restrictions be temporarily weakened, allowing one to approach. However, there is also an Ice Spirit Beast guarding Tianji Peak. This beast is extremely ferocious. If you wish to obtain the Celestial Star Stone, you must first subdue it or avoid it."

Then, Immortal Venerable Yunyin moved his finger, pointing to a gloomy area on the map. "This ley line spirit is hidden deep within the Dark Night Forest. That area is fraught with mazes; once you step in, it's easy to lose your way. The ley line spirit is located in the center of an ancient formation, surrounded by traps and mechanisms. Furthermore, when the ley line spirit was formed, it attracted many evil spirits that guarded its location; they won't easily allow anyone to take it away. Disciple, both of these are rare treasures. Are you sure you want to risk your life to obtain them?"

Lu Lingxi nodded firmly, "This disciple's mind is made up."

Immortal Venerable Yunyin looked at her, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. He was both pleased with Lu Lingxi's determination and worried about the danger she was about to face.

“My disciple, I know your mind is made up, but this journey is extremely dangerous, so you must be careful.”

Immortal Venerable Yunyin sighed, took out a jade pendant and an ancient book from his storage ring, and handed them to her. "This jade pendant might save your life in a critical moment. This ancient book records various rare treasures and ancient formations. I hope it will be of some help to you."

Lu Lingxi accepted the jade pendant and ancient book, nodding solemnly. "Thank you, Master!"

After leaving the Cangqiong Temple, Lu Lingxi Yao went to Fengyin City and found Feng Qingxue and Bai Ze.

"Yaoyao, you're back!" Feng Qingxue greeted Lu Lingxi Yao with joy.

Bai Ze also came over and asked with concern, "Has everything been taken care of?"

Lu Lingxi nodded and told them about her trip to the Illusionary Sea Continent.

"The Illusionary Sea Continent?" Feng Qingxue's face showed worry. "That place is notoriously dangerous. It's too dangerous for you to go alone."

“I have to go,” Lu Lingxi said firmly. “Only there is a chance to find a way to save my parents.”

Bai Ze was silent for a moment, then said, "I'll go with you."

“I’ll go too!” Feng Qingxue said without hesitation.

Looking at them, Lu Lingxi felt a warm current flow through her heart. She smiled and continued, "Master said that there is an ancient magic array at Fallen Soul Cliff that can take you to the Seventh Realm—the Illusionary Sea Continent! However, to activate the array, we still need a Heavenly Star Stone and an Earth Vein Essence. In order to save time, we will split into two groups. You go to Fallen Soul Cliff first, and I will go and get those two things. Then we will meet up!"

Feng Qingxue was a little worried: "I'm not comfortable with you going alone, I'll go with you!"

Lu Lingxi chuckled inwardly. Bai Ze was clearly interested in Feng Qingxue, and Feng Qingxue didn't seem to dislike him either. Perhaps putting them together might lead to something good! So she said, "Don't worry, I'm not alone!"

She deliberately kept everyone in suspense, implying that she also had a whole bunch of awesome spirit beasts—Illusory Moon, Phantom, Netherworld, Dark Night, Black Tortoise, and Nine-Tailed Fox! Releasing them would scare a whole bunch of people to death!

Feng Qingxue understood immediately and said, "Alright, but you should still be careful. Whoever finds it first should contact each other using the sound transmission conch."

Lu Lingxi nodded confidently: "Yes!"
