"Remember, traitors won't have a good ending no matter where they are."
The third brother's betrayal was beneficial to them, but the man with the goatee still got his subordinates to kill him. The goal was to tell the people in the team not to be traitors, otherwise, they wouldn't have a good ending.
At this time, Du Feng and Tang Jiaojiao had already arrived in front of the secret room. It was really a secret room, there wasn't even a door to enter. Previously, the specter that Du Feng released had also been to this place. However, after many attempts, they couldn't find any way to enter the secret room, not even a small crack. If it wasn't for the existence of the restriction, it would be easy to treat it as an ordinary wall.
The road is long, the river is long, the fame is all in the path of immortality, today is young, tomorrow is old. The mountain is still good, but the people are haggard!
After Tang Jiaojiao cast a spell, a poem appeared on the originally bare wall. Fame is all in the path of immortality, what does this mean? Don't cultivators break away from the secular world, why do they still have fame? According to common understanding, those who take the imperial examinations are all mortals of the secular world. In order to live a good life, they study hard for ten years in order to take the imperial examinations.
Cultivators need powerful combat strength, the strength of a person can destroy a city, even a country. Or even a mission like the Four Emperors. The strength of a person can overturn mountains and seas, who would care about things like imperial examinations? Just like the song said, today is young, tomorrow is old. No matter how high an official is, even if it is the emperor. Life is only a short hundred years, how can one talk about imperial examinations?
Perhaps the cultivator who created the Tianhu Ancient Ruins was once a mortal in the secular world, thinking of taking the imperial examinations to become a high-ranking official. Later on, his life met with an unforeseen event, and for some reason, he chose to give up learning and pursue martial arts. This person must be extremely talented, to be able to have such high achievements.
"Come and help!"
Tang Jiaojiao pressed both palms on the wall, not caring about the true essence. Her true essence alone didn't seem to be very thick, so she asked Du Feng to help. After Du Feng also started to send true essence to the wall, another painting appeared next to the song. In the painting, there were shepherds herding cattle, men farming and women weaving, and silent fishermen. The most special thing was that there was a drunk man under the weeping willow in the painting. His drunken and drowsy posture was completely revealed. The people in the painting seemed to have come to life. His chest heaved up and down, and the breath he exhaled caused his beard to flutter. This made Du Feng envious.
He was already crazy in the mortal world, so why bother ascending to the heavens? If life could really be carefree, why would there be a need to cultivate so hard? Mortals pursued temporary pleasures, while martial artists pursued a long-term existence. Apart from the length of time, there was no other difference. If one could really be like the drunkard in the painting, being able to forget everything between heaven and earth, that would also be a very high realm.
It was as if the painting had come to life. It turned into a woman dressing in front of a mirror. It was not enough to describe her beauty as devastatingly beautiful. It could be said that she was the most beautiful woman Du Feng had ever seen in his life. Furthermore, it was not as simple as being good-looking. There was an inexplicable attraction that caused him to fall into a trance.
At this moment, a cool feeling rose from Du Feng's dantian and quickly rushed to his head, causing him to wake up. He looked at the back of the mirror that the woman was holding. There were two eye-catching words "Sky Lake" written on it.
Ah, how could this be! This discovery shocked him. Could this Sky Lake Mystic Realm have been created by a female martial artist? In Du Feng's mind, this place must have been created by a man who had seen through the mortal world. Furthermore, it must have been an old man with the demeanor of an immortal.
"Now!"
After the Sky Lake Mirror appeared, Tang Jiaojiao actually stuck her hand into the wall. To be exact, she had put her hand into the ink painting. Her goal was simple. It was to snatch the mirror from the woman's hands. Her main goal in coming to the Sky Lake Ancient Ruins was to obtain the Sky Lake Mirror.
What is she doing? Seeing what Tang Jiaojiao was doing, Du Feng was stunned. He had never thought that he would be able to find treasures in a painting. Furthermore, it was directly snatching the treasure from the hands of the woman in the painting. This was simply too crazy. It was like a dream.
The Sky Lake Ancient Ruins was originally a mystic realm that was different from the outside world. In that case, what was the ink painting on the wall? Was it a mystic realm within a mystic realm? Or was this ink painting actually a passageway to some immortal realm?
Oh no! Just as Tang Jiaojiao's hand grabbed the Sky Lake Mirror, the suction from the wall suddenly intensified. Du Feng lost control of his body and was suddenly pulled into the wall. To be precise, he was pulled into the ink painting.
"How is this possible!"
Tang Jiaojiao was dumbfounded. Seeing Du Feng living in the ink painting, with his expression and actions exactly like a real person, she was indeed scared out of her wits. Previously, she had heard from her grandfather that if one were to fall into this ink painting … One would be trapped inside and never be able to get out. One would become a person in the painting, a virtual existence. That place was filled with mortals, and there was no Cultivation at all. Once the wall was destroyed, for the person living in the ink painting, it would be equivalent to the collapse of the entire world.
Compared to the outside world, the Sky Lake Ancient Ruins was already a small world. One of the paintings in it couldn't be any smaller. If Tang Jiaojiao was allowed to live in such a painting, she might as well die. How boring would that be?
"If I can get out alive, I will ask my grandfather to ask for a reward for you."
From Tang Jiaojiao's point of view, Du Feng had already become a palm-sized person in the painting. She didn't know if he could hear what she said, but no matter what, she had to report the truth when she returned. This was because Du Feng had played a part in obtaining the Sky Lake Mirror.
Contrary to what Du Feng had guessed, the Sky Lake Mirror wasn't something that only the Pavilion Master of the Martial Arts Pavilion wanted. The Seven Basaltic Mansions, or the entire Thousand Moon Country, or even the entire God of War Continent, needed it.
The southernmost part of the South Continent was the Thousand Moon Country. The southernmost city of the Thousand Moon Country was Star-Moon City. Further south of Star-Moon City was the Extreme South. Further south of the southernmost region was the so-called grey zone. There was a large number of otherworld creatures entering the human world through the spatial cracks.
