After leaving the Undying City, Ling Yi continued northward.
Oh, by the way, the Undying City has now become Snow City again. As for the three conditions Ling Yi promised the Undying City Undying City, none of them have been mentioned.
Perhaps it will take quite some time for the people of Snow City to emerge from the shadows and be reborn.
Before Ling Yi left, Lady Li said the following to Ling Yi.
"Immortality is to forever remember past pain, to keep having nightmares. A person can only remember a tiny fraction of the beautiful things in their lifetime, while what is truly unforgettable is always the final pain at the end."
Ling Yi couldn't fully understand this feeling. Perhaps Lady Li's idea was wrong, but Ling Yi didn't know how to refute it.
He only remembered the radiant smile on Lady Li the moment she turned away. Ling Yi understood the meaning of that smile: it was... a new beginning.
Ling Yi knew he would remember that smile for a long time.
After crossing the Frozen Domain, you will reach the Desolate Desert.
The distance between extreme cold and extreme heat is less than Wu Bai miles.
The further north you go, the harsher the environment becomes, the fewer cities there are, and the greater the distance between them.
In the Southern Linnan Domain, you might encounter a new city every hundred miles, but in the Northern Linnan Domain, you often see thousands of miles of desolate wilderness.
Furthermore, the differences between cities are enormous; each city is like a completely independent world.
The Northern Linnan Domain is not only harsh in its environment, but the Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth also seems to be much worse.
Perhaps it's because we're getting closer to the Forest of Myriad Ages.
After all, for the ancient Formation Pattern of the Forest of Myriad Ages to continue to exist, it must constantly Devouring Heaven and Earth.
The further north you go, the thinner the Spiritual Qi becomes, and the scarcer the cultivation resources become.
Spirit Stone veins, common in the Southern Linnan Domain, are almost never seen in the Northern Region.
This is why the Asgard's influence is rarely seen in the Northern Linnan Domain.
In comparison, this place is more like the world of A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality.
The Desolate Desert is vast, and Ling Yi had been walking for almost half a month without ever leaving it.
Looking up at the Wuyun, azure sky, the intense sunlight made Ling Yi's eyes very uncomfortable.
Just then, an Goshawk soared across the sky; this was the first creature Ling Yi had encountered since entering the Desolate Desert.
Just then, a cloud of dust suddenly billowed up from the distant horizon.
A monster, half a meter tall, resembling a rhinoceros, and covered in brownish-yellow scales, charged wildly toward Ling Yi.
On the back of a desert rhinoceros sat a long-haired woman wearing a gray coarse cloth shirt and a black veil over her face.
The woman's clothes were stained with blood, her breathing was short and weak, and she was in very poor condition.
She kept looking back, the jolting motion of the desert rhinoceros as Keep Running making her, already weak, sway unsteadily.
Less than fifty meters from Ling Yi, a creature fell off the back of a desert rhinoceros. The immense force of the fall caused its frail body to tumble several times on the sand.
The woman struggled to roll over, lying on her back on the ground, gazing at the azure sky with eyes filled with despair.
Hunger, severe dehydration, the scorching heat of the sand, and the blinding sunlight overhead caused her to feel dizzy in waves.
She knew she was about to die.
Just then, a shadow appeared above her head, blocking the blinding sunlight.
The sudden alternation of light and darkness blurred the woman's vision for a moment.
Once her vision cleared a little, she saw the face of a handsome and clean-cut young man.
"What's your name?" Ling Yi asked, bending down.
"My name is Mu Miao, save me!" the woman managed to say before her consciousness faded into darkness.
Ling Yi half-squatted down and helped Mu Miao up. He then made a grabbing motion in the Void with his right hand, and a green light full of rich life Aura condensed and pressed down on Mu Miao's shoulder.
Mu Miao, who had been frowning and looking pained, slowly relaxed.
Just then, another cloud of sand rose in the distance, accompanied by shouts and cries. Soon, a herd of desert rhinos came galloping towards them.
Upon reaching Ling Yi, they quickly formed a circle, surrounding both Ling Yi and his companion.
Each desert rhinoceros was ridden by two burly men dressed in Black Robe and wearing black turbans.
"How come this kid is so clean? Where did he come from?"
"Don't worry about all that, just kill him and take Mu Miao back to Green Mang City."
Ling Yi glanced up at the group, frowned, and waved his hand. The twenty-odd people were struck by Great Strength, and before they could even scream, they plummeted in huge parabolic arcs into the distance.
The terrifying power emanating from that instant caused the desert rhinoceroses to kneel on the ground, trembling and lowering their heads, not daring to make the slightest move.
Ling Yi snapped his the Snap, Daodao Earth Wall rose out of thin air, forming an earthen house amidst the swirling sand.
Then, green vines sprouted from the walls outside the earthen house, and in the blink of an eye, they Entanglement the earthen house in green.
Inside the earthen house, earthen beds, earthen tables, and earthen chairs automatically rose from the ground...
Ling Yi used his Spiritual Power to lift Mu Miao and place her on the earthen bed.
He then clapped his hands and murmured, "I'm becoming more and more adept at using the laws."
Only then did Ling Yi begin to seriously examine the woman named Mu Miao.
This woman is beautiful, even stunning.
Even though she looked disheveled and dirty, her stunning beauty was still undeniable.
This is the most beautiful woman Ling Yi has ever seen since he transmigrated.
Ling Yi had to admit that he was truly amazed by the woman's appearance.
Mu Miao didn't wake up until late at night.
She sat up in bed, cautiously looked around, checked her own body, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, she felt healthier than ever before.
The fatigue vanished, and my body was filled with energy. I was completely different from how I was before I fainted.
Only then did she notice that the Earth Wall around her were Light Emission, the light soft and Warmth, making her feel very comfortable.
Sniffing, Mu Miao caught a whiff of wine coming from outside.
She cautiously touched the short knife at her waist, then stepped out of the earthen house.
The night sky was ablaze with stars, and although it was dark, the starlight did not obstruct the view.
Not far away on the sand, a man dressed in white was sitting cross-legged, drinking wine.
In the distance, thirteen desert rhinos were resting on the ground.
"Woke up?"
"Hmm, you saved me?"
Mu Miao remained vigilant, glancing back at the earthen house enveloped in lush green vines, her pupils contracting in surprise.
"Those people..." Mu Miao's gaze once again locked onto the desert rhinos.
"Dead!" Ling Yi said calmly.
Mu Miao came to Ling Yi's side and sat down cross-legged, imitating Ling Yi's posture.
Ling Yi pointed between the two of them, and a low table appeared out of thin air, on which were placed four plates of stir-fried dishes that looked and smelled delicious, as well as a pot of wine, a wine glass, and a pair of chopsticks.
"You're a cultivator?" Mu Miao's voice was somewhat surprised.
Then it dawned on me that only a cultivator could create so many wonders out of thin air in the desert.
Since he was a cultivator, all her vigilance was meaningless; there was a world of difference between ordinary people and cultivators.
"There are very few cultivators in the Northern Region, and no cultivators have ever appeared in the Desolate Desert. Are you a cultivator from the Southern Region?"
"Yes!" Ling Yi nodded.
"Thank you so much for saving my life, senior."
"Just doing it as I please. Also, don't call me 'senior,' just call me by my name, Ling Yi!"
" Mu Miao dares not act rashly!" Although Mu Miao was only dressed in coarse linen clothes, his words and actions were unlike those of an ordinary person.
"I'm only nineteen years old this year, not old enough to be called a senior yet."
"You must not have eaten for several days. Eat first, and then tell me about this Desolate Desert."
Mu Miao didn't stand on ceremony. Although Ling Yi had regained her strength, she was still extremely hungry after not eating for several days.
Mu Miao ate quickly, but still maintained an air of elegance.
Ling Yi could tell that this wasn't an act, but a habit he had developed since childhood.
After Mu Miao had finished eating, she poured herself A Cup of Wine. After taking a sip of the mellow wine, Mu Miao let out a soft breath.
"This vast, Desolate Desert contains only twelve cities, each built on an oasis."
Mu Miao spoke to herself, her voice Spiritual Animation, like a bell in the wind.
"Those people from before were from the Green Mang City Lord's Mansion."
" Green Mang City, a city of bandits. Almost everyone in the city is a bandit, committing all sorts of atrocities and spreading their notoriety far and wide."
"I am not from this Desolate Desert. I entered this Desolate Desert in search of medicine for my father."
"My father's soul has been damaged. To restore it, he needs a Soul Cultivation Soul-Replenishing Pill."
"I heard there's a Soul Cultivation in Flame City, so I thought I'd try my luck."
"Unfortunately, my whereabouts were leaked, and I almost died in Green Mang City."
At this point, Mu Miao's eyes were filled with Leng Yi, clearly showing extreme hatred for the person who had leaked his whereabouts.
" Soul Cultivation!" Ling Yi had heard of Soul Cultivation Soul Cultivation Blood Shadow Ye Yu before, and had even done some research on it afterwards.
Soul Cultivation is practically a taboo subject throughout the entire Nine Palaces Realm.
There are too many Body Refining in the Nine Palaces Realm, but they can be generally divided into three categories: Spiritual Cultivation, Art Cultivation, and artifact cultivation.
Spiritual Cultivation is the mainstream practice, focusing on Spiritual Power, the Sea of Consciousness and spiritual Spirit Platform, and Divine Ability abilities.
Art Cultivation includes Body Cultivation, Gu cultivation, talisman cultivation, etc., while weapon cultivation includes sword cultivation, knife cultivation, array cultivation, etc.!
Soul Cultivation, however, does not belong to any of these methods.
Because the soul cannot be cultivated at all, the so-called cultivation method of Soul Cultivation is to devour the Human Spirit and take over their Human Spirit as their own.
As for the Soul-Replenishing Pill, Ling Yi also knew about it. It was a kind of pill that Soul Cultivation refined by absorbing the Human Spirit, specifically used to replenish Soul Power and strengthen the soul.
Although everyone hates Soul Cultivation, it's precisely because of fear that everyone hates them.
The price of Soul-Replenishing Pill is extremely high; a single Soul-Replenishing Pill has been sold for as much as one billion Low-Grade Spirit Stone, demonstrating its rarity and value.
"Are you sure there are Soul Cultivation in that Flame City?" Ling Yi asked.
Mu Miao shook her head; she knew that Soul Cultivation were universally despised and hated in the Nine Palaces Realm.
But to save her father, Mu Miao would not give up, even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance.
"Then get some rest. We'll go to Flame City together tomorrow."
"Are you going to Flame City too?" Mu Miao asked.
"I travel through the Nine Palaces Realm, and my destinations are not fixed. Therefore, whether or not I go to Flame City is entirely up to me."
"Furthermore, I am also very interested in that Soul Cultivation."
The Penglai Asgard also has Soul Cultivation, but those Soul Cultivation are strictly controlled by the Asgard and are merely tools who have only learned a few Soul Cultivation skills. They have no ability to cause trouble at all.
I wonder if the Soul Cultivation who have been talked about by the Nine Palaces Realm are really as powerful as the Legend say.
