1253 God Ascension Realm

"While I share the belief that Yuan can handle the Ten Great Families even if they unite, I also feel that we should make an effort to support him. After all, we're all members of the same faction—we can't simply stand idle while our leader is under threat," Wang Ming said.

"I concur with that sentiment, but the question is, what should our course of action be?" Hong Xiuquan inquired.

A heavy silence settled over the room as those present contemplated potential strategies.

Xi Murong was the first to speak out, "The Ten Great Families are recruiting Exiles, right? What if we infiltrate them and mess with them from the inside?"

"Huh? Don't we actually need an Exile to do such a thing?" Wang Bingbing said.

"Well, I was thinking that one of us could pretend to be an Exile, especially since one can't the difference between an NPC and a Player at a glance."

"I'm sure they will have some kind of verification in place to prevent such incidents," Wu Zao said.

Meixiu nodded in agreement and added, "Wu Zao is correct. Exiles emit a distinctive aura, making it relatively easy to discern whether someone is an Exile or not based on their aura alone."

"Oh… In that case, forget my suggestion…" Xi Murong sighed in defeat.

"How powerful are Exiles? I mean, what's stopping us from attacking them first?" Shi Lang suddenly asked.

"I think their powers vary, but since they have all lived a long time, there's a good chance that most of them are quite powerful, and at our level, we'll only be digging our own graves if we even attempt to ambush them." Meixiu shook her head.

"Damn it… Is there truly nothing we can do to stop the Ten Great Families' plot?" Wang Ming gritted his teeth in frustration.

Meifeng then spoke, "I understand all of your desires to help Yuan, but at the end of the day, we should wait for his response before we get ahead of ourselves."

"Speaking of Yuan, when's he coming back out? It's already been half a year since he entered the Nameless Emperor's Tomb, correct?" Wang Bingbing asked.

"He's probably caught up in something like he usually does." Chu Liuxiang shrugged, and she continued, "Though, I doubt it'll be much longer before he returns."

"Then let's give Yuan another week to return before we make any decision," Meifeng said.

"Alright." The members all agreed.

Meanwhile, inside Cultivation Online, Dong Ye brought Yuan and his group to a secluded location nestled amidst an expansive mountain range.

"Welcome to my humble estate, my liege." Dong Ye said as they approached a wooden cabin that he'd personally built.

"You are living here…?" Yuan asked out of curiosity.

"I am always traveling, so I only come here when I take a break or need to do something in peace. There's also a concealment formation surrounding this area, so you don't need to worry about anything while you are in here."

Once they were inside the building, Yuan carefully laid Xiao Hua, who was still unconscious, on the bed.

"So, are you going to tell me about what happened to Xiao Hua, or is this still against 'my' own command?" Yuan looked at Dong Ye, who could only stand there with a bittersweet smile.

"As much as I desire to clarify matters for my liege, I'm afraid I can't divulge any information about her, as it might influence your fate. Nevertheless, if you inquire about it when she awakens and she chooses to reveal it, I'll be in a better position to provide additional details based on the circumstances," Dong Ye explained.

"I thought so…" Yuan sighed.

"Hey… Yuan… Who's that old man? I can feel an otherworldly aura coming from him." Xi Meili whispered to him.

"He's a follower from my past life— the Evil God to be precise."

"I see… So he must be very powerful."

"Well, he's almost a Cultivation God, so I guess you can say that." Yuan nonchalantly revealed, dropping a bombshell of information.

"W-What?! Cultivation God?!" Xi Meili exclaimed in a voice filled with astonishment and disbelief.

"Unfortunately, this humble one is only at the 7th level of God Ascension realm. I am nowhere near being a Cultivation God, and I highly doubt I will be able to achieve it in this life." Dong Ye shook his head in a dejected manner.

"That's merely three levels away from a Cultivation God—the highest known cultivation realm!" Xi Meili remarked, her astonishment growing by the moment.

"While these three levels may seem close to each other, each level in the God Ascension realm is so vastly distant from each other that it can only be traversed by those with extreme talents and no amount of hard work or treasure will help you fill that gap," Dong Ye lamented with a sigh, emphasizing the immense chasm between these cultivation stages.

"Let's put it this way: if I wanted to defeat someone at the 8th level of God Ascension, I'd have to clone myself at least a dozen times and rely on extraordinary luck just to stand a chance," Dong Ye elaborated, causing Xi Meili to swallow nervously.

Xi Meili then turned to look at Yuan and asked him, "What cultivation were you in your past lives?"

"I don't know." He shrugged.

"My liege has managed to reach Cultivation God in the majority of his lives." Dong Ye said.

"The majority? So there are times when he didn't?" Xi Meili found this quite interesting.

Dong Ye nodded and explained, "Indeed, but it wasn't due to a lack of talent, as my liege's talent only increases with every reincarnation, so he didn't reach Cultivation God by choice."

"That's even more puzzling. Why not?"

"Unfortunately, I cannot divulge any more, as I was commanded by my liege's incarnation to not reveal too much, as it could affect his fate."

"Is that so… Then I have another question. How are you able to stay in this realm at that level of cultivation? Doesn't it get increasingly harder to go to the lower realms the higher your cultivation?"

"Indeed, but when you've been doing it for millions of years like I have, you're bound to pick up a trick or two to make things a bit easier," Dong Ye chuckled, almost boasting of his ability to defy the laws of the Nine Heavens through his extensive experience.
