Eleven thousand eleven

The cultivation world consists of two continents. Across the sea from the Eastern Extreme Continent lies another land known as Nanli. Unlike the Eastern Extreme Continent, where sects abound and govern the cultivation world, Nanli is divided between two great nations: the Northern Kingdom called the Tai Xuan Immortal Dynasty, and the Southern Kingdom called the Canghai Immortal Dynasty. The crown prince of the Tai Xuan Immortal Dynasty is named Su Yu, while the ninth princess of the Canghai Immortal Dynasty is Ji Minghuang, one of the two princesses rumored to be likely appointed as the Imperial Heiress. The Canghai Kingdom venerates women, with the throne traditionally inherited by females.

As for the woman in pink, what stunned everyone was not only her beauty but also the fact that she hailed from the Yunji Sacred Land—a truly sacred place of cultivation, home to the oldest and most ancient cultivation family that preserves the transcendent arts of antiquity. Their mastery of immortal techniques commands great respect and fear throughout the cultivation world.

It is said that if a cultivator aspires to ascend to immortality, one day they cannot avoid seeking the Yunji Sacred Land. This is because many ancient cultivation methods of the Ascendant Realm are held exclusively by the Cui family of Yunji. The Yunji Sacred Land is a giant immortal island suspended in the boundless sea, known as Penglai.

In terms of status, Cui Xueruo clearly ranks above the other two, even above the entire cultivation world. All the disciples were stunned. Why would someone of such noble status come to the Qingjian Sect to attend lessons, and mingle among the inner disciples? Could it be to learn the secret ancient musical techniques inherited by Qingjian Sect? Otherwise, they could think of no other reason. It was understood by those with some knowledge that the ancient musical arts were connected to ascension.

Thus… could this interface be about to usher in an opportunity for ascension? At that thought, all the disciples’ hearts started pounding wildly. If so, they must apply themselves even harder—such immortal fate must not be missed.

Song Chi was more shocked than anyone else, her mouth agape for a long time. She was even scolded by Qi Zhenmo beside her for being spineless. Song Chi wanted to say that if it were him, he would probably be even more spineless. After the shock passed, she nearly burst out laughing, showing eight teeth.

Help! At the very moment when the three introduced themselves, something suddenly burst open in her mind, flashing brightly. She had indeed—crossed into the book.

Before crossing over, she had read that book several years ago. Now, fourteen years have passed since then, and honestly, she didn’t remember much from before. But as a likely benefit for a transmigrator, her mind was now filled with all the contents of that book.

That book was somewhat disappointing. The author suddenly won the lottery in the latter half and abruptly ended the story without resolution. Only due to an outpouring of reader comments was a rough outline of an ending released.

Recalling this made Song Chi want to laugh a little. If she had won the lottery, well... anyway, she had always been quite laid-back.

In short, she now recalled everything from that book.

Among the three newcomers, Cui Xueruo was the female lead, while the crown prince Su Yu of Tai Xuan was the male lead. Ji Minghuang, the ninth princess of Canghai, would eventually become the Imperial Heiress, but she was the secondary female lead, always admiring the male lead from afar.

Song Chi had always thought Mo Feiyun was the male lead, but he was actually the secondary male lead. This young man fell in love at first sight with Cui Xueruo and remained deeply attached to her.

Ye Qingyu also developed feelings after the female lead sat beside him. During their adventures in the secret realm, as they overcame numerous dangers together, he grew to deeply admire and love her unyielding spirit, becoming inseparable in his heart.

Su Qiwu, too, fell for the female lead and nearly died for her.

As for Jiang Linyue, she was a good friend who shared poems and songs with the female lead but loved Ji Minghuang.

However, the female lead Cui Xueruo fell in love at first sight with the immortal master Mo Shubai. Yet, in the story, Mo Shubai never really favored anyone and ultimately retreated from the world.

But these matters of affection did not concern her. What mattered was that something she had long awaited finally arrived.

“So my opportunity lies here.” After all, having transmigrated, how could there be no benefits for a transmigrator?

Three years later, a secret realm would appear containing a spiritual fruit capable of altering the secret realm itself. With her talent, a slight improvement could lead to achieving the Golden Core stage. If she could consume all three of these spiritual fruits, she might even break through to Nascent Soul.

That would resolve her family’s crisis, allowing her to return to her previous life of leisurely embracing music. Life would be truly delightful.

Though she appeared indifferent, in her past life she was a musical prodigy. Not surrounded by flowers and applause, but at least not pitied everywhere she went like in this life. Deep inside, she felt somewhat uncomfortable.

Now, the situation clearly held the potential for great change.

Song Chi lowered her head, restraining herself, but couldn’t help trembling with silent laughter for a while. Taking a deep breath, she slowly regained composure.

She quickly reviewed the plot in her mind, determined to remember every word, especially regarding the secret realm and the spiritual fruits. It was rather interesting—perhaps another transmigrator’s benefit—that the book was like an open script in her mind, everything clear as day.

If not for fear of revealing secrets, Song Chi almost wished to copy it all down immediately.

For now, she had to stay steady.

The original owner of this body was also a character in the story, but she loved Mo Feiyun, the young man who had always lined up ahead of her when apprenticing.

The original owner’s personality was gentle and sweet, that of a well-behaved girl next door. Song Chi, however, was different; that obedience was merely an act. Both lives, she had avoided trouble through this pretense, as she feared it most.

In short, the original owner grew soft-hearted because of Mo Feiyun’s company during those two hours on the mountain path, and silently gave up on him.

But Mo Feiyun was clearly infatuated with the female lead, especially in the secret realm, where he urgently pursued her to save her. The original owner saw this and quietly buried her feelings in sadness.

In that secret realm, the original owner obtained one spiritual fruit for purification. These spiritual fruits were called Desired Treasures, changing their nature according to the cultivator’s innate roots.

The original owner’s fruit was the one remaining after the male lead Su Yu consumed two. Su Yu possessed four types of spiritual roots: two at 99 and the other two at Heavenly Spirit Root. When he saw the original owner come running, battered and with desperate eyes, he gave her the leftover fruit.

The book mentioned that Su Yu had always felt some pity for the original owner.

Thanks to this spiritual fruit, her water spirit root finally reached 88, and the other two roots reached 80. Later she worked hard and successfully broke through to Nascent Soul.

Her cultivation was somewhat accomplished but her romantic path troubled. Not only was her secret love unrequited, but in a maze realm, both she and Su Yu were poisoned by a love toxin and became physically intimate.

Because of this intimacy, the original owner’s mood darkened. She truly gave up on her love for Mo Feiyun and chose to retreat to her hometown before the final battle.

After everything settled, Su Yu visited her at Hundred Flowers Creek, offering to marry her and make her a high-ranking consort, but she refused.

That intimate scene nearly got buried under a flood of harsh reviews. Readers cursed the author for such a ridiculous plot, claiming the male lead was tarnished and unworthy of the female lead.

As for the consort appointment, readers had nothing left to say since it was just a rough outline ending.

Despite the criticisms and melodrama, the story was quite popular at the time. Song Chi remembered enjoying it then.

But now, taking over the original owner’s identity, she decided to skip that intimacy. She was not interested in men.

She also had no intention of obtaining the spiritual fruit from the male lead because the book hinted there was a better place to seize it. She wanted to take it because the person was a pushover, easy to manipulate. More importantly, having all three Desired Treasures would fully cleanse her spiritual roots.

Moreover, this male disciple capable of altering his spiritual roots was a troublemaker. After becoming a genius through this change, he became a lustful demon. Later in the story, when the female lead was injured and unconscious, he nearly assaulted her, only to be killed by the rescuing Mo Shubai.

Though not the male lead, this character also drew readers’ ire. They felt the male lead should always be heroically protecting the female lead, and anything less was an insult to the title.

But the author stubbornly wrote it this way.

In summary, this male disciple, Yin Qiang, was troublesome. She resolved to investigate his talent, cultivation methods, and behavior carefully.

He was from the same generation as senior disciple Wei Lingxiu but had trained four more years. Though his talent was similar, with one root at 80 and two at 70, his progress slowed significantly after reaching the sixth level of Qi Refining.

She could keep pace easily. Especially since the book provided a near-comprehensive description and hints, Song Chi did not believe Yin Qiang would survive the shadows.

After all, she was a ruthless outsider with the script in her hands.
