In his heart, two voices intertwined and couldn't be reconciled. Logically speaking, when he first saw this mark, he should have turned around and left. But after a hundred years of bitter cultivation, he had finally achieved the perfection of refining his Qi, only to find that without a sect's foundation, as a lone cultivator, he was unable to successfully establish his foundation for nearly a hundred years now.
Cultivators in the Qi Refining stage, no matter how they cultivate, their lifespan will not exceed 250 years. If they cannot break through to the Foundation Building stage, they can at most live for a few more decades. In the cultivation world, those heaven-sent treasures that are beneficial to cultivation have always been monopolized by large sects and aristocratic families. It is extremely rare for lone cultivators to obtain such opportunities. Such an opportunity is a gift from Heaven, and it must not be missed!
Isn't the current outstanding figure in the Xian Xia world, the master of Fubo Island who stands independently outside of the four seas, precisely the one who obtained the ancient immortal's treasure under the Beihai Yuehua Palace over a thousand years ago, and thus can stand out from the crowd, surpassing everyone else?
The Taoist's face turned extremely hot at this time, and he said in a low voice: "Die if you die, anyway, you've had your chance!"
As soon as his voice fell, he suddenly heard the sound of wind and thunder coming from under his feet. He was not surprised but delighted, "It's already time to get out of the ground!" Before he finished speaking, a loud noise was heard, and a huge water column, like a dragon, shot straight up into the sky. Tens of millions of water arrows shot in all directions, stinging people's faces. Even the sound of whistling could be heard in the air. In the huge whirlpool, a water column rose straight up, emptying the pool in an instant. And what followed closely behind was a raging flame that pierced the sky, perfectly blending fire and water in that moment.
The Taoist let out a loud roar, he swung the feather duster in his hand, and a dark red glow enveloped his entire body, then rushed downwards.
……
Mo Zi Chen couldn't help but let out a loud cry as she was dragged into the spring eye. She felt that this spring eye was incredibly narrow, and the pressure from all sides was enormous, squeezing her in like it wanted to crush her into powder. The surroundings were also like countless fierce flames that were constantly scorching her, making her feel like her skin was being burned to a crisp.
But strangely, her heart felt exceptionally clear and cool at this moment, as if it was not affected by the outside world. Her body and soul seemed to be separated from each other at this moment.
She seemed to be led by this inexplicable force, through a very narrow and long corridor, as if it was just an instant, yet as if thousands of years had passed, like falling off a cliff at high speed. This mysterious feeling made her feel extremely strange.
When Mo Zi Chen opened her eyes, she was surprised to find that under the spring eye, there really was a different sky!
She seemed to have entered an unknown world, like a deep cave hidden underground, with stalactites hanging down from the top of her head, surrounded by a faint mist, and the sound of dripping water kept coming but couldn't be seen anywhere. The stone walls were adorned with large chunks of crystal, emitting soft light. It was as if she had entered a paradise on earth.
Mo Zi Chen couldn't help but open his mouth wide, muttering: "I... am I dead? It seems that I'm not a bad person, after death I can still ascend to the realm of immortals!"
An elegant and intoxicating environment, at this moment, it even makes her a little drunk, wanting to indulge in it for a long time.
At this time, the "squeak" sound rang out, waking her up from her trance. Mo Zi Chen looked down and found that Xiao Xiao was crouching at her feet, using its paws to pull on her pant legs.
It wasn't until then that she realized this place wasn't a paradise you could only reach after death, but rather it was this unknown little guy in front of her who had brought her here.
Mo Zi Chen bent down and picked her up, muttering: "You're really a strange guy, what is this place anyway?"
Toto seemed to have understood her words and jumped down from her hand, running quickly forward.
Mo Zi Chen followed it with some stumbling steps, passing through the corridors in front of her one by one.
The road here is like a complex maze, she followed Toto and turned around, finally arriving at a vast and endless cave.
The surroundings became even more scorching, as if in a huge furnace, but around Mo Zi Chen's heart, there was always a cool air surrounding her, making her unaffected by these heat waves.
"She couldn't help but exclaim: 'It's so beautiful here!'"
She seemed to be in a vast and serene night sky, with twinkling stars above her head, the surroundings were extremely quiet, and the air was filled with a faint mist. The starlight above refracted down, causing the empty space to emit layer upon layer of rainbow colors.
In the hazy fog, she saw a large white stone, and as if wanting to walk closer, she felt a chill hit her face.
It was then that she discovered this wasn't a rock at all, but an enormous block of ice!
This ice block was several zhang high, about one zhang in diameter, standing there like a large stone statue. Mo Zi Chen puffed out a breath of air on his hand, jumped up and down excitedly as he walked closer, looked up, and couldn't help but be startled.
In this block of ice, a person was sealed!
He wore a bright yellow Taoist robe, with a jade belt around his waist, one hand pressing on the hilt of a long sword, and his eyes gazing into the distance as if he wanted to break through the wall and fly away. The expression on his face was vivid and lifelike, like a living person standing right in front of Mo Zi Chen.
Mo Zi Chen couldn't help but exclaim: "You... what kind of person are you?"
She subconsciously waved her hand forward, only to hear a "thud" sound, and her palm was hit sorely. It wasn't until then that she realized what she had struck was a huge ice block, and the person was sealed inside the ice.
Mo Zi Chen covered her mouth in shock, unable to conceal the astonishment on her face. As soon as she saw the cave for the first time, she smelled a strong breath inside, and it was certain that no one had entered here for at least thousands of years. So, where did this person come from? How long has he been frozen here?
It's strange that the surrounding temperature is constantly rising, and she can clearly feel the heat waves rolling in layer by layer. However, this large piece of ice has no intention of melting at all. On the contrary, as one approaches it, they will feel a chill that is oppressive.
Everything around seemed to exude an eerie atmosphere.
Mo Zi Chen stopped in his tracks and grabbed Xiao Xiao beside him, saying: "Hey, what did you bring me here for?"
Tou Tou narrowed his eyes, as if smiling at her, but before Mo Zi Chen could speak, a loud rumbling sound came from above, and the ground shook for a moment. Pebbles fell from the top of their heads.
Mo Zi Chen's first reaction was, earthquake!
If it were true, she would be buried alive in the depths of the ground, who knows how many meters deep. Her toes touched the ground and just as she was about to dash out, two deafening explosions came from left and right. Two dazzling purple lights filled her eyes in an instant.
Mo Zi Chen clearly saw that they were two giant toads, baring their teeth and brandishing their claws, bursting out from the rocks.
