Song Zhong's face turned green when he heard the Queen Mother's words. He quickly said, "I only slept. What's wrong with that?"
"Hm?" Everyone rolled their eyes when they heard Song Zhong's words.
At the same time, SongZhong also realised that his words were not too appropriate, and could easily cause ambiguity. So he quickly explained with a bitter face, "No, no, no, I mean, I just spent a night in the empty Moon Palace. I didn't mean anything else!"
When everyone heard this, they all looked at him with amusement, but did not say anything.
"Alright, alright!" The Jade Emperor who was anxious about the Ice God Palace finally stood up and said, "Everyone, there's no rush. We can talk about this later. The most important thing now is still the Ice God Palace, right? "
"Yes!" Everyone nodded. The Black Tortoise Emperor said, "That's right. Since that's the case, let's go take a look at the Ice God Palace first. We'll talk about other things later!"
"Alright!" Everyone agreed one after another. Then, in the midst of mutual modesty, they flew away on the clouds.
As for SongZhong, he was listlessly flying behind with Xiao Cha.
Xiao Cha could see Song Zhong's helplessness. She secretly transmitted her voice to him, "Brother, they're obviously trying to push Chang 'e to you to get closer to you!"
"I know that. I just didn't expect them to use such a method. I don't like it!" Song Zhong frowned.
"Hehe, I think you're just happy in your heart. You won't say it out loud!" Xiao Cha giggled. "You can't fool me! How can you not be moved by a beauty like Chang 'e? "
Song Zhong's face turned red when he heard that. He said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"If I'm talking nonsense, why are you angry?" Xiao Cha smiled nonchalantly. "You're the one who's guilty!"
Song Zhong was speechless. He said, "Forget it. I can't be bothered to talk to a brat like you!"
After he finished speaking, he flicked his sleeve and sped up, ignoring Xiao Cha.
Heavenly Emperor-level powerhouses, their speeds were all especially fast. And with Song Zhong's help, Little Tea did not fall behind either. Therefore, after everyone flew for more than half a day, they arrived at their destination, the eye of the Heavenly River.
The Heavenly River was the largest and most mystical river in the Jade Emperor Heaven. It traversed the Jade Emperor Heaven, spanning hundreds of millions of miles.
The upper layer of this river's water was Profound Heavenly Water, which could be used to refine low-level immortal artifacts.
At the middle level of the Heavenly River, it would become Two Profound Heavenly Water or even Three Profound Heavenly Water. As for the bottom layer, it depended on the depth. The deeper the place, the better the quality of the water. It was said that in some extremely deep springs, pure Nine Mysteries Heavenly Water would flow out. That was a treasure that could refine Grade Nine Immortal Artifacts.
Of course, there were not many of these springs, and they were not flowing all the time. In addition, the most important thing was that the water pressure at these springs was very terrifying. Ordinary Chaos Golden Immortals could not get close. Only Emperor-level powerhouses could come and go as they pleased.
Therefore, whether or not they could obtain the powerful Nine Mysteries Heavenly Water could only depend on the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother of the West. And this naturally depended on luck.
In addition, other than the Heavenly River's water, this place was also rich in other treasures. For example, the Heavenly River Sand at the bottom of the Heavenly River itself was a precious material. Moreover, there were many precious materials hidden in it, and there was no lack of Innate-level treasures.
Such a mystical Heavenly River naturally would not be empty. It nurtured many mystical aquatic creatures. Under the effect of the Heavenly River's water, which was rich in Immortal Qi, the creatures in the Heavenly River were very powerful. They could cultivate to human form in a short time.
For example, the golden carp and other low-level creatures here could reach the strength of an Earth Immortal in two to three hundred years. With the help of the Heavenly Court's high-level mental cultivation techniques and the help of medicine, they could quickly advance to Heaven Immortal. In the future, as their cultivation deepened, they would continue to advance until they became Heavenly Court's generals. And these people were the main source of the Jade Emperor's Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals.
Therefore, to the Jade Emperor, this Heavenly River was the foundation of his fortune. It was not an exaggeration to call it his lifeblood. In order to protect this place, the Jade Emperor's elite troops were stationed here all year round. The Heavenly River Navy numbered as high as eight million.
These navy troops were all personally trained by the Jade Emperor. Other than his orders, they did not even listen to the Queen Mother of the West's words.
Other than protecting this place from being stolen by outsiders, they also had the mission of collecting treasures and recruiting aquatic demons to replenish the navy troops.
Eight million navy troops sounded like a lot, but in reality, it was not enough to control the entire Heavenly River. They could only control most of the flat areas. As for the dangerous areas, they could only monitor but not control them.
These dangerous areas in the Heavenly River were usually where the Heavenly River's water eye was located. Almost all of the Heavenly River's water came from underground water eyes.
These water eyes were usually extremely huge. They would sometimes spray water and sometimes absorb water. When the water was sprayed, a terrifying force would spray the heavy Heavenly River's water into the air and then fall down like a torrential downpour.
A drop of the Heavenly River's water weighed more than fifty kilograms. When it fell from the sky, the momentum was naturally extremely shocking. The impact of the huge amount of water was also enough to kill a Golden Immortal. Therefore, it was very dangerous.
As for absorbing water, it would form a huge whirlpool with a radius of thousands or tens of thousands of miles. Any creature that was sucked into the whirlpool, even if it was a demonic fish swimming nimbly in the water, would not be able to withstand the tearing force of the whirlpool and would be torn to pieces on the spot.
Therefore, it was very dangerous near the Heavenly River's water eye. The Jade Emperor did not dare to let the Heavenly River Navy be stationed here.
When Song Zhong and the others were flying on the Heavenly River, they saw that there were many military camps and sentry posts on both sides of the river. There were also many dragon boats floating on the river. Although they were not as big as Song Zhong's Divine Thunder Flying Ship, they had a different aura.
Unfortunately, the number of the navy troops was a little small. There were far less than eight million, not even three million. Song Zhong knew that this was due to the years of war, which had consumed too much energy.
It would take at least a few hundred years to make up for the difference. And this time, it was also what Song Zhong and the others were fighting for. As long as the troops under the Heavenly Emperors could recover, they would not be afraid of the invasion of the Western Buddhist World.
Song Zhong and the rest strolled leisurely along the way. With a relaxed mood, they followed the Jade Emperor to a water eye.
This water eye was extremely huge. At this moment, it was sucking in water. The whirlpool it formed was actually a hundred thousand miles in radius. It was like a huge funnel. Every moment, countless amounts of water from the heavenly river would be sucked away by it.
Looking at the terrifying huge whirlpool, everyone felt a deep sense of shock! Where else would there be such a huge and terrifying whirlpool?
At this time, the Jade Emperor, who was the host, pointed at the huge whirlpool and said, "Everyone, this water eye is the largest water eye in the Heavenly River. It is very strange. Other water eyes spit out more water and absorb less water. But this one only absorbs water and does not spit it out. And the power of this whirlpool is extremely shocking. Even if a Daluo Golden Immortal enters, he will be torn to pieces. So within hundreds of thousands of miles, this is a completely forbidden area. No one dares to come close! "
Song Zhong heard this and nodded gently, then said, "The Ice God Palace is here?"
"This …" The Jade Emperor hesitated for a moment, then said, "I actually don't know if the Ice God Palace is here or not. I can only say that I have seen the shadow of the Ice God Palace here more than once!"
"Just a shadow?" Song Zhong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, then said, "Are you sure that shadow is from the Ice God Palace?"
"Shouldn't be wrong!" Queen Mother of the West said, "I have also come here many times to collect some precious materials. From time to time, I would see the shadow of a mysterious palace. That palace's appearance and the unique aura it emits, it is the Ice God Palace of the Water God Gong Gong!"
At this time, North Pole suddenly interrupted, "Queen Mother of the West is the most senior person here. She has interacted with the Water God Gong Gong before and has also been to the Ice God Palace as a guest. Since she said so, then it must be true! "
"Yes, yes, that's right!" Everyone nodded, expressing their agreement.
Song Zhong heard this and no longer had any doubts. So he said, "Then, let's assume that the Ice God Palace is here. How should we collect it? We can't just wait here for it to appear right? "
"Waiting won't help!" Queen Mother of the West said, "The Ice God Palace has already gained intelligence. It will automatically dodge when it sees people. So we can only see its shadow in the distance, but not its full appearance!"
"Then how should we collect it?" North Star Emperor couldn't help but frown.
"This …" Jade Emperor thought for a moment and said, "What I mean is, let's dive into the depths of the spring and see if we can find it!"
"Dive into the depths of the spring?" Song Zhong looked down at the terrifying whirlpool and his heart thumped. Then, he asked carefully, "May I ask, is the depths of the spring dangerous?"
"Of course it is, but the pressure is too great!" Jade Emperor said honestly, "With my strength, I can only dive a hundred thousand feet deep. Any deeper and I won't be able to withstand it even with an innate saint weapon!"
"A hundred thousand feet?" Song Zhong asked, "Can we find the Ice God Palace there?"
"Obviously not, we can only occasionally encounter the Ice God Palace at that depth. To find it, we have to dive a few hundred thousand feet! "Queen Mother of the West said.
"What? We have to dive that deep? " Song Zhong's face turned green. He couldn't help but ask bitterly, "Can I still come back alive at that depth?"
"That, I'm afraid you'll have to ask Xiao Cha!" Queen Mother of the West said and looked at Xiao Cha who was still munching on the divine fruit.
