"So that's how it is!"
Aunt Jiu shook her head and sighed. "Back then, the marriage between your mother and your father was greatly opposed by the clan. My mother was too stubborn, and the clan rules were harsh. If not for that, with Wanbai's exceptional talent and my mother's fondness for her, she would have been able to negotiate with my mother. My guess is that she was worried that the negotiation would fail and raise my mother's wariness, making it even harder for her to obtain Muqian Lingyue. As such, she did not hesitate to sacrifice her life in exchange for your healthy growth. "
"Sob, sob, sob!"
Mei Dong 'er was speechless. She could only cry bitterly. She was completely covered in tears.
Li Yunxiao said, "Aunt Jiu, since the key has been found, why don't you open the door and let us all experience it? Let Dong 'er pay respects to her parents."
Mei Dong 'er's body trembled, and only then did she slightly stop crying. Her eyes had swollen like peaches in such a short period of time. She looked at the door anxiously, eager to pass through it.
Aunt Jiu was slightly worried and said, "Alright. Ever since my mother passed away, this door has never been opened again." She placed the jade tablet in her palms and gently separated her hands. A brilliant light flowed out, and the entire tablet slowly rose and flew to the front of the door as she chanted the incantation.
Aunt Jiu formed a seal with both hands, and the jade tablet shot out a dark green light into the door. The light gradually radiated from the door, forming the shape of a snowflake. As it grew larger, the edges of the snowflakes started to spin, and a rumbling sound came from afar.
"It's been more than a decade, and I finally hear this sound again!"
Aunt Jiu was so excited that she could hardly contain herself. She stared unblinkingly at the quietly opening door, and a strange feeling drifted out from inside.
"What dense Spiritual Qi. Just what space is the Wuding River in? It actually has such dense Spiritual Qi fluctuations. It's not any weaker than the current Yanwu City."
Li Yunxiao was shocked, and his eyes flickered as if he was thinking about something.
Rumble!
The door opened completely, and a warm light flickered inside like a gem.
"Everyone, welcome to the Wuding River. You are the first outsiders to visit the Wuding River in thousands of years. "
Aunt Jiu was overjoyed. Although it was inappropriate to bring outsiders here, she could not suppress the joy in her heart. Furthermore, she could not refuse everyone's request.
"Mother!"
Mei Dong 'er let out a sorrowful cry. She rushed in first and burst into tears.
Everyone glanced at each other before shaking their heads and sighing without end, and then they followed Aunt Jiu's footsteps and entered one by one.
The scene in front of them immediately shocked everyone. They saw that the door was opened on top of a precipitous cliff, and in front of them was a boundless sea of clouds. To be more precise, it should be a sea of Spiritual Qi. Below him was a stream of liquid-like spiritual energy. Just by looking at it, one would feel refreshed and indescribably comfortable.
Li Feiyu exclaimed, "Oh my god! How is it possible that the Mei family has such a strong Spiritual Qi environment? I've never heard of any peerless experts appearing in the Mei family for thousands of years, but it's impossible that they couldn't be nurtured in such an environment! "
Li Yunxiao frowned and said, "No, there seems to be something wrong with this spiritual energy."
Aunt Jiu was shocked, and an intense look of shock appeared in her eyes. She said, "Young Master Yun is indeed amazing. He discovered the situation so quickly." Bitterness appeared in her eyes as she said, "I don't know why, but the Spiritual Qi here contains something different. The ancestors of the Mei family have studied it for too long before they found the source. This Spiritual Qi contains a poison called the Sunset Mist."
"Sunset Mist? There are only a few poisons in the world that can affect a martial artist's cultivation, but I've never heard of such a poison. "
Li Feiyu said, "Could it be that no ancestor has found a way to neutralize it in the past thousands of years?"
Aunt Jiu smiled bitterly and said, "Neutralize? Young Master Li, this Sunset Mist is the key to the Mei family's appraisal technique. Only by inhaling a large amount of this poison can the people of the Mei family cultivate the appraisal technique. Moreover, the ancestors speculated that the Mei family's members were all female, so it should have something to do with this poison. "
"This …"
Li Feiyu sighed and said, "The world is big, and there are too many magical things. Whether this Sunset Mist is good or bad, I really can't tell. "
Aunt Jiu pointed to a cliff and said, "Mei Dong 'er, that was where your parents sank into the river that day."
"Lord Mother, Lord Father!"
Mei Dong 'er knelt down in tears. As she wailed, she felt dizzy, and she actually fainted on the cliff.
Mo Huayuan bent down to check and said, "She's fine. She just fainted because she was too emotional."
Li Feiyu sighed and said, "Anyone who encounters this kind of thing can't help but be devastated."
Li Yunxiao also sighed and asked Aunt Jiu, "Can I go down and try in this Wuding River?"
"What? Young Master Yun wants to go down? "
Aunt Jiu was stunned. She asked in surprise, "Aren't you afraid?"
"Afraid of what?" Li Yunxiao smiled and said, "Afraid that you'll only give birth to girls in the future?"
Aunt Jiu blushed and said, "Of course, this is also a concern."
Li Yunxiao laughed and said, "A girl is a girl. I quite like it." He glanced at Li Feiyu and said, "Young Master Li, are you interested in going down and giving it a try? What about Little Chuan and Huayuan? "
The three of them turned slightly pale and hurriedly shook their heads and retreated. Xiao Xuanzi also took a step back, afraid that Li Yunxiao would drag him down with him.
They were all disciples of aristocratic families. Carrying on the family line was a very important matter. If they could only give birth to girls, they would probably be killed by the elders of their families.
"Young Master Yun, I don't think you should go down. I don't think there's anything to see," Mo Xiaochuan said embarrassedly.
He also didn't want his master to have no descendants!
"It's fine. Wait for me here!"
Li Yunxiao turned around and jumped into the Wuding River. Under everyone's shocked gazes, he quickly disappeared.
Mo Xiaochuan's face was a bit pale. He said, "Aunt Jiu, there won't be any danger down there, right?"
Aunt Jiu shook her head and said, "The spiritual energy structure here has been analyzed countless times by the ancestors. Other than the Sunset Flower, there's nothing else. However, there's an extremely strong Sunset Flower poison 500 meters down. Even I don't dare to go too deep. That thing accumulates to a certain extent and will produce an extremely strong corrosive effect that the body can't withstand. "
When Mo Xiaochuan heard this, he didn't say anything. Instead, he sat down cross-legged on the cliff and began to slowly wait.
After Li Yunxiao fell into the river, he immediately felt an ice-cold feeling. It was indescribably comfortable. This river water was basically formed from spiritual energy, and it poured into his body.
Genryu's voice came over and said, "Could it be that you want to cultivate here and break through to Martial Monarch? For the sake of cultivation, you don't even want to carry on the family line? "
"Hmph, it's just a trifling poison. What can it do to me?!"
Li Yunxiao circulated the Tyrannical Heavenly Body Tempering Art. A layer of golden light immediately appeared around his body, isolating him from the river water. He continued to sink deeper.
"How are you going to cultivate by isolating the spiritual liquid like this?" Genryu asked in confusion.
A bright light flickered in Li Yunxiao's eyes. He snorted and said, "Who said I want to cultivate? I originally planned to take some time to return to Yanwu City. Looks like there's no need now."
Genryu said in shock, "Could it be that you want to …"
A bright light shot out from between Li Yunxiao's eyebrows. The World God Stele turned into the size of half a person and moved side by side with him. They continued to sink.
"Hmm, the spiritual energy here is even more terrifying than in Yanwu City. Although it contains a certain amount of poison, it's enough for me to repair this stele. After I repair it, I'll get rid of all the spiritual energy in the stele. That way, there shouldn't be any residual poison left. "
Li Yunxiao said in deep thought.
"Tch, I thought you weren't afraid of giving birth to only girls!" Genryu said in disdain.
Li Yunxiao snorted coldly and said, "What does it have to do with you whether I give birth to a boy or a girl? If you talk nonsense again, I'll pull you out and trap you in this Wuding River. I'll let you try!"
Genryu's expression changed greatly. With Li Yunxiao's personality, he really might do it. A sullen expression appeared on his face, and he didn't dare to make a sound.
Li Yunxiao and the World God Stele became one, creating a vacuum in the surroundings. He kept on sending Deity Techniques into the stele. Patterns of light appeared on the World God Stele, flashing one after another. Flowing lights circulated within.
Li Yunxiao turned into a beam of light and shot into the World God Stele. The Deity Technique words appeared in the space within the stele, giving off a powerful rhythm. Rays of rule power flickered continuously, making it hard for others to grasp them.
"Ha!"
Li Yunxiao let out a loud shout and pointed in the air with both of his hands. Every time his fingers landed, there would be afterimages and illusory lights. Very soon, a golden circular formation condensed in front of him and expanded, spreading out towards the boundless space.
At that moment, in the Wuding River, with the World God Stele as the center, a whirlpool started to form. A large amount of spiritual energy turned into liquid and spun, gushing into the stele.
The light from the World God Stele became more and more brilliant, shining on the surroundings of the whirlpool and forming a auspicious glow.
On the cliff, Mo Xiaochuan, who was sitting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and looked down in shock. It was as if he wanted to see through it, but he couldn't.
"Aunt Jiu, is there really no danger in the Wuding River?"
Mo Xiaochuan couldn't relax and asked again.
Aunt Jiu frowned slightly and said, "For thousands of years, I've never heard of any danger. However, don't sink below five hundred meters. Otherwise, the poison will be so strong that experts below Emperor Wu will find it hard to resist. "
"Five hundred meters …"
Mo Xiaochuan looked down. The interference of the Divine Sense in the Wuding River was very strong. He estimated that he was already five hundred meters away, but he couldn't see any trace of Li Yunxiao. However, the Wuding River was boundless, and he didn't know if he had gone somewhere else. He couldn't help but feel a little irritated.
"Big Brother, don't worry. Young Master Yun will be fine. This brat is too mysterious. You should know his abilities better than me, so you should have more confidence. "
Mo Huayuan comforted.
"Yes, but 'this brat'?"
Mo Xiaochuan's face darkened, and he shouted, "If you speak disrespectfully to Young Master Yun again, you can scram back to the Sanctuary!"
Mo Huayuan was stunned, and then he laughed bitterly. His big brother's respect for Li Yunxiao came from the bottom of his heart, and it made him feel very strange.
"Sanctuary?"
Aunt Jiu and Li Feiyu were both shocked. Li Feiyu said, "Could this lord be from the Sanctuary?"
