My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty

Sizzle!

Creak!

The dark shadow was completely restrained by chains, unable to resist, shrieking in agony amidst thunder, lightning, and heavenly fire.

"Speak!"

"I'll tell you everything! Don't strike! Don't electrocute! Don't burn me!"

"It's numb! Really numb!"

The extraterrestrial entity begged, its voice no longer cold but in the most authentic accent of Jing Nation. It was incredibly humble and ingratiating.

Over the years, it had long learned the language of the Human Clan and was proficient in various accents. It was on the brink of collapse.

If it could manifest its eyes at this moment, it would surely shed tears of regret.

Under such torture, the honor and disgrace of the extraterrestrial entity clan seemed insignificant.

Seeing this, Gu Lan stopped tormenting the extraterrestrial entity.

"Master! Master!"

"From now on, I am your dog! If you tell me to go east, I won't dare go west! If you tell me to chase chickens, I won't chase ducks!"

"I am ranked seventeenth in the extraterrestrial entity clan. Master, you can call me Seventeen!"

The extraterrestrial entity struggled on the chains, trying hard to transform into a shape that could please Gu Lan.

Gu Lan: "..."

Could this lump really invade the Three Realms of Immortals, Demons, and Gods in ancient times?

And cause such great damage that even the Two Realms of Immortals and Demons couldn't recover their strength until now?

If Gu Lan hadn't witnessed the battle scenes between the Bull Demon Clan and the extraterrestrial entities, she wouldn't have believed that this lump in front of her belonged to the extraterrestrial entity clan.

Have some backbone!

The methods just now were just appetizers for tough nuts like her... But it's true that artifacts like the Saint Dragon Clock inflict unforgettable damage on them. No wonder the Bright Temple's luminous gods were the main force in the battle...

"Master!"

"Don't judge us by our ugly original forms. Our shapeshifting ability is among the best."

"Whatever appearance Master likes, I can change into..."

"Shut up!"

Gu Lan was speechless. This thing was definitely a talent among the extraterrestrial entities!

"Don't talk nonsense!"

"Immediately tell me in detail how your clan has infiltrated the mortal realm over the years."

"If you dare utter another word of nonsense, I'll annihilate you!"

Hearing the killing intent in Gu Lan's tone, Seventeen immediately became obedient.

It began recounting how it and three other extraterrestrial entities escaped from the Demon Clan's sealing point.

And how they invaded the mortal realm through the spatial rift near the Stele Eye.

The sealing of the sealing point was destroyed by the mysterious person in the Lower Realm of the Bright Temple.

The location of the four spatial rifts was also guided by that mysterious person.

As for the true identity of that mysterious person, Seventeen had no idea.

It only knew that the mysterious person was of the luminous race in the Immortal Realm.

"Stele, Stele Eye?"

Gu Lan had already guessed most of this information.

What surprised her the most was that there were not just three places where evil energy erupted in the mortal realm, but four, all located where the Stele Eye was.

In each mortal realm, there were four Stele monuments suppressing the Stele Eye.

In this mortal realm, aside from Ling Mountain, the Demon Realm's Immortal Desolation Cliff, and the East Sea Dragon Palace's forbidden area, there was also one in the Shuzhou Heaven Mountain Secret Realm.

"Shuzhou Heaven Mountain Secret Realm..."

Gu Lan recalled that she had destroyed that place with a sword due to a misunderstanding with Shangguan Yuyang, and the Stele coffin had been brought out.

Well... that's no longer a concern.

At this moment, Gu Lan understood that the Stele coffin was not just a boundary marker of the Heaven Mountain Secret Realm but also of the mortal realm.

Initial Demon had deceived her.

But that was no longer important, as Initial Demon had long since perished.

"Master! Master!"

"How was my answer?"

Locked within the chains, Seventeen, the extraterrestrial entity, twisted about, appearing as if begging for praise.

"It's alright."

Gu Lan nodded slightly.

Then, with a snap of her fingers, even more terrifying thunder and flames descended.

"Creak! Creak! Ah! Why are you doing this to me?"

The evil creature screamed miserably, its soul filled with questions.

However, no matter what it said, Gu Lan showed no intention of stopping.

If Initial Demon could lie and deceive her, this genuine extraterrestrial entity was certainly no good bird. It would be strange if she could trust anything it said completely. Perhaps there were one or two lies mixed in its recent words.

Nevertheless, it didn't matter much. Gu Lan only needed to ascertain the locations of the four Stele Eyes.

The locations where Stele Eyes were found were rich in spiritual energy, prone to creating spatial rifts susceptible to external invasions. Wouldn't these places be the most suitable for housing core arrays?

Having core arrays suppressing Stele Eyes would be more appropriate than relying on unreliable boundary markers.

Leaving the Great Leiyin Temple, Gu Lan followed the residual evil aura and soon spotted a pitch-black spatial rift.

Within the rift, wisps of black qi swirled around a Lotus Phala.

"Let there be light!"

Gu Lan once again invoked her command, simulating the power of the luminous race from the Immortal Realm, systematically purging the black evil qi from the spatial rift.

Watching as the evil qi was swiftly cleansed away, she couldn't help but exclaim, "The power of light is truly effective!"

At the same time, she absorbed the Lotus Phala into her hand, revealing its information.

"Alright! With the past, present, and future, the three Lotus Phalas are now complete!"

"I wonder if it can summon a divine dragon?"

Gu Lan chuckled softly and tossed the Lotus Phala into the system space, intending to study it slowly in the future.

Casually setting up a prohibition array, Gu Lan left the Great Leiyin Temple and bid farewell to Zhi Kong and the others.

"Farewell, Master!"

Zhi Kong clasped his hands together respectfully as Gu Lan departed, and the other disciples of the Buddha did the same.

Their gazes toward Gu Lan were akin to looking up to a deity, filled not only with respect but also deep faith.

After Gu Lan left the Western Regions, Ling Mountain soon fully recovered its incense offerings, surpassing even its heyday.

Throughout the Western Regions, Mahayana Dharma flourished completely. The disciples of the Buddha no longer solely pursued personal enlightenment and becoming Buddha; their initial intention in practicing Buddhism was to save all sentient beings.

Years later, a Buddha child born under a shower of five-colored Buddha light at Ling Mountain astonished even Zhi Kong with his exceptional talent.

"Master!"

"Mahayana Dharma will prosper in our Buddha sect!"

At that time, Zhi Kong held the Buddha child, barefoot on the soil of Ling Mountain, his eyes full of reverence as they drifted toward the direction where Jing Nation lay.

...

"Young friend, please wait!"

The moment Gu Lan stepped into the Jing Nation Capital City, Daoist Yunlong emerged from the side.

During Gu Lan's time dealing with the extraterrestrial entities, he had finally found a suitable location for the core array from numerous ancient texts in the Tianji Pavilion.

"Young friend!"

"It is rumored that every mortal realm has four Stele Eyes suppressed by boundary markers."

"These locations where Stele Eyes reside have the densest spiritual energy, making them the most suitable core array positions for the protective grand array!"

Daoist Yunlong appeared extremely excited.

After all, what Gu Lan was doing was a great matter of safeguarding the mortal realm, and Tianji Pavilion's involvement would be a significant merit.

"However, some parts of the texts are missing, and I have not yet found the specific locations of the Stele Eyes."

"Please give this Daoist a little more time."

"Wait!"

Seeing the profound smile that never left Gu Lan's face, a bold idea sprang up in Daoist Yunlong's heart.
