The Eternal Heaven World that appeared before them had undergone a massive transformation.
First to catch the eye was an endless expanse of lush green plains, flat and boundless, stretching as far as the eye could see without a visible horizon.
And at this moment, a magnificent and formidable city lay like a crouching giant beast.
The city's outer walls soared hundreds of feet high, gleaming with golden light, and many members of Boundless Heaven Hall patrolled back and forth.
On the city wall above the main gate hung a colossal plaque, upon which three characters—written with terrifying power in a flying-dragon-and-phoenix style—read: Eternal Heaven City.
In the distance beyond this massive city, other smaller cities stood, half their size, guarding Eternal Heaven City like loyal sentinels.
Inside the city, commerce thrived. Countless cultivators entered and exited, creating a bustling scene of human voices and lively activity everywhere. Yet the people within were very disciplined, with no fights occurring.
Looking down, the entire colossal city was like an ant colony of people, presenting a scene of prosperity and flourishing.
In the void nearly a thousand feet above the city, numerous giant mountains soared, islands layered upon one another, enveloped in clouds.
Each mountain and island boasted various landscapes, with pavilions and towers faintly visible. Flying eaves and upturned corners appeared and disappeared amidst the flowing clouds, with radiant light circulating.
The mountains and islands were stacked in three layers. The largest suspended peak at the center resembled a mountain that, while not exceptionally tall, subtly exuded an awe-inspiring aura, as if supporting the very heavens and earth of the entire Eternal Heaven World.
As the master of Eternal Heaven World, Xiao Jietian instantly knew that this peak was formed from the Heavenly Beast Mountain. He just hadn't expected the Heavenly Beast Mountain to be able to leave the ground—which was somewhat illogical, wasn't it?
These floating mountains and islands were connected by an invisible force, collectively forming a profound formation. Clearly, they were not randomly arranged.
Xiao Jietian looked at the scene before him, a flash of astonishment in his eyes. This strongly resembled the sect strongholds of those xuanhuan immortal sects.
And within the short time he had been away, the only ones who could achieve this were Yun Yun and the others, who held authority over this world. Presumably, they had put a lot of effort into it.
He waved away the waves of people who wanted to come and salute. "Let's go. We'll head there first. If we stand here any longer, a crowd will gather."
Xiao Jietian led them toward the central Heavenly Beast Mountain, where there was only one building: the Eternal Heaven Palace, exclusive to Xiao Jietian.
He had already seen several exquisitely beautiful, graceful, and uniquely tempered figures standing silently on a large terrace in front of the Eternal Heaven Palace—none other than Medusa, Ya Fei, and the others.
Beside them were two girls, both under five years old, and a little boy just over two.
As Xiao Jietian and the others landed, a figure swiftly flew like a swallow returning to its nest, pouncing into Xiao Jietian's embrace.
"Little Brother Xiao Jietian, I missed you so much!" Ya Fei tightly wrapped her arms around his waist, burying her face in his firm chest.
Xiao Jietian rubbed Ya Fei's head, nodded to the other women, and spoke gently, "We've only been apart for a few days, haven't we?"
"It's been a long time. One day apart feels like three autumns; it's been many days already," Ya Fei said softly, her beautiful eyes shimmering with moisture as she spoke from Xiao Jietian's embrace.
"Alright, alright, you're right. You call the shots." Xiao Jietian patted Ya Fei's waist, and she sensibly left his embrace. Xiao Jietian gave each person a big hug.
Finally, Xiao Meng and Xiao Ling clung tightly to Xiao Jietian, while Xiao Ze, due to the bloodline suppression from his two older sisters, could only hug Xiao Jietian's feet below, looking pitiful.
Tang Huo'er, witnessing this scene for the first time, hadn't expected Xiao Jietian's women to all be exquisitely beautiful, with figures and temperaments that completely surpassed her own.
Although she had seen them in intelligence portraits early on, the paintings simply couldn't capture even a fifth of their beauty.
Even as a woman, seeing this scene, she couldn't help but envy Xiao Jietian…
That night, all the women—except Xuan Yi—gathered in the bathhouse within Xiao Jietian's palace, playfully frolicking in their light gauze robes.
Han Yue, meanwhile, was lounging on Xiao Jietian, while the others occasionally glanced over.
Han Yue, who was currently being thoroughly 'investigated' by Xiao Jietian, licked Xiao Jietian's earlobe. Her voice, perhaps due to shyness, came out intermittent: "Xiao Jietian… Junior Brother, did entering the Eternal Heaven World this time give you a fright?"
"It certainly did. I thought I had entered some immortal realm. You truly are my capable wives. It's wonderful to have you all." Xiao Jietian tightly embraced Han Yue's delicate body.
"Hehe, this was our idea, based on the stories you used to tell about immortal secret realms. Who knew the effect would be so good? How will you reward us?" Han Yue happily swayed her body, asking as if seeking credit.
Han Yue then began to explain the current layout of Boundless Heaven Hall. The suspended city above Eternal Heaven City was the headquarters of Boundless Heaven Hall, divided into four areas: the outermost circle was the Outer Sect Region, the second circle was the Inner Sect Region, the third circle was the Core Region, and the very center was Xiao Jietian's Eternal Heaven Palace, which served as the Forbidden Land of Boundless Heaven Hall.
"Then I will reward you well, making sure each of you is satisfied and returns with a full harvest."
"Is that so? You'd better keep your word. I've already absorbed those sacred liquids and will soon be able to break through to Dou Saint. My physique is not what it used to be." Medusa came before Xiao Jietian, a slight curve to her lips. Her pale purple eyes held a hint of challenge, and a seductive charm flowed in her gaze.
While Xiao Jietian was in seclusion in the Thunder Pool, with Ya Fei's auction house collecting the necessary medicinal pill ingredients to be used with the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Void Sacred Liquid, Xuan Yi had refined them.
Upon hearing Medusa's words, the others immediately shivered. Sister, it's fine for you to be arrogant, but don't drag us into it! You're an outsider now—the kind who can't participate! No matter how strong your physique is, it's useless now! If you do this, we're the ones who will bear the storm!!!
In the Central Region, Holy Pill City, Pill Tower, in a study on the top floor.
Two peerless beauties sat facing each other. One, wearing a tight-fitting cheongsam interwoven with purple and white, exuded the charm of a mature older sister. She was Xuan Yi, the Lady of Boundless Heaven Hall and one of the three giants of the Pill Tower.
Across from her sat a woman in a black and blue dress, which perfectly accentuated her tall, well-proportioned, and curvaceous figure.
Her skin was like snow, and her face—a standard melon-seed shape—though appearing slightly slender, was exceptionally delicate, like porcelain.
The woman sat somewhat languidly, leaning back in her chair. Her narrow eyes were slightly lazy, revealing a hint of alluring charm. She looked at Xuan Yi, who was explaining the precautions for refining eighth-grade pills, with a subtle, sly smile and a touch of resentment on her lips.
