Who Was Calling Ice Block? The Main Tomb's Crystal Palace!
"Judging from the information in the text, the reason this Underground Palace was built is that the sect leader named Qin Yuzhi discovered that another being was awakening within her?"
"This situation seems to have started when she dreamed of becoming someone else?"
"That's why she built this Cloud Dream Palace to bury that being."
"Things are getting interesting..."
A flush rose on Tian Miao's face as she quickly analyzed the situation.
She seemed to have a great interest in things she didn't know.
"Has another entity awakened within me?"
Ying Bing pursed her lips, unable to help but recall her past life.
She also often dreamed of scenes she had never seen before. At the time, she didn't think about them in detail, only that they were distracting thoughts arising during her spiritual practice.
It was during this process that her devotion to the Tao grew stronger and stronger, and a voice seemed to constantly urge her on, telling her:
'Without becoming an immortal, without ascending to heaven, everything is but fleeting smoke.'
"You finally came..."
The wind carried the sound, drifting from the empty space, and Ying Bing was startled.
Li got goosebumps on his neck.
Another being awakens within the body.
There's a lot of information in this text.
The Tomb-Guarding Beast exist to protect the great tomb, but the other side has targeted the Ying Family...
Does the black Year Beast believe that only if the entire Ying Family is wiped out can the great tomb called Cloud Dream Palace be safe?
The tomb has indeed been opened because of the Ice Block...
But the text disappeared at the crucial moment, leaving an abrupt end!
"One day, with a knife in hand..."
"What are you saying?" Tian Miao came to her senses.
"Nothing."
Li Mo silently suppressed his inner turmoil, and only after holding Ice Block's little hand did he feel a little calmer.
Why are Ice Block's hands so cold?
He turned around.
But he found Ying Bing's face as white as snow, her eyelashes trembling slightly, as if she were recalling some unpleasant memories.
Sensing the ripples in her heart, Li Mo tightened his grip on her small hand and asked softly:
"Ice Block, what's wrong?"
Didn't you hear me?
"What did you hear?"
"There's someone speaking up ahead, calling me," Ying Bing murmured, her eyes lowered.
The sound... is getting... louder...
"!"
Li Mo leaned back slightly, and cold sweat instantly poured down his back. He clearly hadn't heard anyone else speak.
Moreover, they were clearly the first to reach the bottom of the Underground Palace; how could there have been anyone ahead of them!
"Should we... go back the way we came?"
Li Mo's expression turned solemn.
They actually always have a way out; at worst, they can enter his Small World. No matter how bizarre the existence, it can't possibly chase them into his Small World.
The problem is that even after emerging from the Small World, you'll still end up back in the same place.
What must be faced will eventually have to be faced.
Somersault Cloud...
They could only take him with them when they left. The Buddhist beads given to Ice Block were products of the Seventh Realm of the Profound Mastery, and they might not be able to exert their original divine power here.
"It's probably too late."
Tian Miao shook her head, took a deep breath, and said, "The thunder behind us is getting closer and closer, but I don't care."
The thunder came from the Seventh Realm Profound Mastery Sage behind the Crown Prince.
He's rapidly approaching!
"Then let's keep going!"
Li Mo made a decisive decision.
He took Ice Block's little hand, called Tian Miao, and the three of them walked forward quickly.
The view ahead suddenly opened up.
The space is vast, with luminous Night-Shining Pearl scattered across the stone walls, their soft light illuminating the expansive area and clearly outlining the main tomb's contours.
A bronze pillar, so thick that it would take five people to encircle it, rises from the ground and supports the sky. There is one pillar on each of the four sides, and various totems are painted on it.
Its design is somewhat similar to what I saw in the Blood Phoenix Secret Realm, only more magnificent.
In the center of the main tomb was a palace made entirely of glass, crystal clear, radiating a dreamlike light like crystal, its enchanting halo sweeping across the mountainside like the aurora borealis in the sky.
Cloud Dream Palace...
This is the real Cloud Dream Palace.
There lay more than a dozen long-desiccated bodies around them. They all seemed to possess great power when they were alive, and even though they no longer had any breath, they still looked lifelike.
Perhaps they were the high-ranking members of the Demon Summoning Cult back then?
Through the open palace gates, one can see a glass coffin inside, from which a bewitching light emanates.
The divine city reflected in the sky seems to be a projection of this Crystal Palace?
"Let's go, let's go!"
Tian Miao took the lead and walked ahead.
"Ice Block..."
Li Mo looked at her pale face with concern.
He had already used his Heavenly Mandate Divine Eye to see it, but what worried him even more was that the Ice Block's recent experiences had become completely blurred.
We have no choice but to go in and find out.
"I'm fine."
Ying Bing tried to put on a cool smile, but it looked somewhat forced.
"I am Heavenly Venerable Immortal."
"That voice said you'd better be in trouble, otherwise I, the Divine Hammer Little Overlord, am not just a name without substance."
Li Mo gave a thumbs up, his face clearly saying "reliable".
Ying Bing stared at him blankly, her gaze reminiscent of the Ice Block in a dream.
Well, she did remember what happened in her dream.
The Li Mo who tricked her into calling him "brother" in her dream slowly overlapped with the Li Mo of today, bringing the same sense of peace...
"Um!"
The two caught up with Tian Miao ahead.
And so they stepped into the Crystal Palace.
Click----
With a thunderous roar, the solid stone wall above the passage they had come from shattered, revealing a hollow that was filled with rolling thunder.
The stone wall writhed, seemingly trying to repair itself, but was constantly torn apart by the lightning snake.
A figure stepped out from within; the old man walked out with his hands behind his back, as if strolling leisurely.
"Your Highness, this should be the main tomb. This place has a significant history, and it truly took me quite a bit of effort to find it."
"Thank you, Imperial Grand Uncle."
After bowing, Jiang Yu's double pupils revealed barely concealed excitement. Could the solution to the Heavenly Human City suspended above the Imperial Capital be hidden here?
"We should be the first..."
He looked into the distance, but his pupils suddenly contracted.
Three figures stepped into the Crystal Palace.
"It's them?!"
Boom--
Another loud bang.
The other side of the mountain wall was suddenly broken open, revealing Tan Zhuyin and the others. They looked much more disheveled, with injuries all over their bodies.
In fact, if they hadn't been members of the Demon Summoning Cult, and if the last powerful demon hadn't failed to attack them, the entire group would likely have been wiped out.
"Why doesn't my immortal brother respond to me...?"
Luo Yexian muttered to himself, looked up, and was shocked:
"Holy Son's nephew, they're going in!"
"How dare you! Your Highness, in your presence, you have beaten me to it!"
The silver-armored Heaven Patrol Guard commander suddenly sprang up and flew towards the Crystal Palace's main gate.
Accompanying him were two Dharma Kings of the Demon Summoning Cult.
At that moment, the doors of the Crystal Palace suddenly began to move.
Just before the two figures arrived, he finally closed his eyes heavily.
However, the world-building still needs to be gradually improved; otherwise, as the story progresses, it will become a castle in the air, with more and more plot holes left unfilled.
In short, creating a world-building framework is both difficult and necessary, and it also has to be integrated into the main plot. This humble writer's head is spinning lately...
Fortunately, the next part of the story is mainly about sweet moments, hehe.
Thank you for your support, everyone!
