Chapter 2178 - 2178 I Know
She had been in the Red Moon Desert for many years, but she had never seen this seal. But for some reason, she strangely felt that the aura on it was inexplicably familiar.
She thought of that eye. With the arrival of Wei Yue, what secrets are hidden below?
“There are many restrictions below. I’m afraid we can’t enter,” Rong Xiu said.
Chu Liuyue nodded and summoned a longsword.
!!
It was the Yuan instrument refined from the Nether Star Sword Embryo.
Half of it was pure gold, and the other half was green and black. Against the bright snow, it was especially rich and brilliant.
With a thought, a ball of fire surged out, melting and tempering the incomplete hilt of the Chi Xiao Sword.
The Yuan instrument was refined. Under the guidance of the flames, it fused into a new sword.
“When the Nether Star Sword Embryo is forged, it will naturally be called the Nether Star Sword!”
The sword body shone brightly, and the sword aura was sharp!
It was indeed a pity that the Chi Xiao Sword was destroyed. Fortunately, she had personally refined this Nether Star Sword.
It was just right.
Chu Liuyue looked at Rong Xiu. “Big Baby and the others are most likely trapped in the Fantasy Divine Palace. We have to find the place as soon as possible.”
Big Baby and the other two had been trapped in the Red Moon Desert for more than 10,000 years and had never left. But this time, the three of them disappeared very suddenly.
This made her very uneasy.
Rong Xiu paused for a moment before saying, “I know where the Fantasy Divine Palace is.”
…
Tens of thousands of kilometers away.
In the dark and cramped cell, Dugu Mobao sat quietly alone.
His soft armor-like purple robe was damaged in several places. His body was covered in blood, and he looked like he had just experienced an intense battle.
After a while, a hoarse voice sounded. “Have you thought about it?”
Dugu Mobao didn’t react, as if he didn’t hear anything.
Dugu Mobao was still unmoved.
His pale face was stained with a few dried dark red bloodstains, making him look even more haggard. However, his back was straight like a tall pine tree in the snow, with a noble pride that went deep into his bones.
This attitude seemed to anger the other party.
“Dugu Mobao, you’re very stubborn, but have you ever thought about whether those two are the same as you? If you refuse to relent, they’ll have to suffer another day. No matter what, they’re friends who’ve accompanied you for 10,000 years. Can you really bear to leave them in the lurch?”
Dugu Mobao’s glabella moved slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes.
Those demonic purple eyes flickered with an ice-cold light. “You don’t dare to kill them.”
His voice was calm and firm. Every word was like a heavy hammer that smashed into the empty and dark cage.
The voice fell silent for a moment before saying, “That’s right. I indeed won’t kill them now. It’s a pity that Lan Xiao has just tempered his Holy Body… But compared to Diwu Zhangze, he’s still alright. You also know how painful it will be to enter the Fantasy Divine Sea without a Holy Body. After all, you’ve already experienced it 10,000 years ago, right?”
There was a hint of smugness in the voice, as if it had succeeded in a prank. It was cold and sinister, making one’s heart tremble.
Dugu Mobao’s hands curled up in his sleeves, and his voice turned colder. “You will be punished for breaking the contract.”
“Pfft.” The other party sneered in disdain. “Dugu Mobao, you seem to be the one who violated the contract first, right? You’ve already committed a huge taboo by reconstructing your Holy Body! It’s fine if Lan Xiao is your person, but—the day Diwu chose to defect, he should’ve expected this day to come! It seems that these 10,000 years of punishment still haven’t taught him enough!”
Dugu Mobao’s lips suddenly curled up into a very faint smile. “Isn’t it obvious that you’re too much of a failure that he defected and still refuses to realize his mistakes until today?”
Slap!
As soon as he finished speaking, a long whip lashed Dugu Mobao’s back in the darkness!
His skin and flesh were instantly lacerated!
He grunted and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, but the mockery in his eyes intensified.
“The Fantasy Divine Palace’s Heaven Gate is about to open. Everything will eventually be decided! At that time, you will know how stupid what you did today was!”
The voice lingered in the cage for a long time before finally dissipating.
After confirming that the person had left, Dugu Mobao’s body swayed, and he coughed violently.
There was a strong taste of blood between his lips and teeth.
After coughing for a while, he casually wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and placed his hands on his knees before continuing to sit cross-legged and wait.
The Heaven Gate is about to open. Yue’er… will be here soon, right? A trace of worry flashed between his eyebrows, but it quickly dissipated.
…
“You know?!” Deep shock flashed across Chu Liuyue’s eyes. “Why didn’t I hear you mention it before?”
Rong Xiu smiled faintly. “You didn’t ask before. Besides… I shouldn’t be the only one who knows about this place. Yi Zhao, Senior Miao Zhen, and some first-rate families with thousands of years of history should’ve heard of it too.”
Chu Liuyue recovered her senses. “This is…”
“It is a place that exists in distant rumors. It’s said that tens of thousands of years ago, a mysterious place appeared in the God Residence Realm. People called it the Fantasy Divine Palace. There, the Heaven and Earth Force was abundant, resources were abundant, and experts were as numerous as the clouds. More importantly, if one could enter it to cultivate, they might be able to break through the shackles of legendary warriors and become an even stronger existence. But for some reason, that place disappeared later on. Gradually, fewer and fewer people knew about this.”
“There were also people who speculated that the Fantasy Divine Palace was a miracle. Every tens of thousands of years, it would descend into the world. A legendary warrior would step through that doorstep and become a peerless expert.”
“However, these are all rumors—no one has personally witnessed it. I just didn’t expect it to really appear now.”
Chu Liuyue muttered, “Breaking through from a legendary warrior…”
In the God Residence Realm, no one had successfully broken through that shackle in the past 10,000 years.
Dugu Mobao and the other two seemed to be such existences, but for some reason, they had been suppressed in the Red Moon Desert for more than 10,000 years. No one knew of their existence as well.
Suddenly, her pupils constricted. “Wait, when that strange hall appeared here, there were also rumors in the God Residence Realm that it was related to breaking through from a legendary warrior. Could it be… that’s the Fantasy Divine Palace? Or is it related to the Fantasy Divine Palace?”
Rong Xiu paused. “At that time, it was foggy. Did you see the words on the plaque clearly?”
Chu Liuyue shook her head.
In fact, because of the white fog, she couldn’t even see the full appearance of the hall. She only remembered the black jade circular area and the magnificent and towering circular wall.
“Perhaps we’ll know everything when we reach the Fantasy Divine Palace.”
Chu Liuyue clenched the purple scales in her hand tightly, pursed her lips slightly, and nodded.
