The northernmost land, the northernmost land in the world, was covered in white snow all year round.
In the depths of the northernmost land, there was a mountain range surrounded by snow. There were many palaces.
In one of the palaces, a silver-haired woman was staring blankly at a mirror.
On the table in front of the dressing mirror, there was a man's robe and a statue of herself.
The woman stared at the robe and the statue. Tears welled up in her eyes but she suppressed them. The woman bit her lips as if she was enduring great heartache.
If Zhong Shan was here, he would be furious. Who made Sorrow Qing Si so sad?
Sitting in front of the dressing table was the Daikon State's empress, Sorrow Qing Si.
Behind Sorrowful Qing Si, two maids were carefully combing her hair.
"Young palace master, we haven't seen you smile in a long time." A maid frowned.
"Yes, young palace master, I remember that when you looked at the robe and the statue, you always smiled happily. Why are you sad now?" The other maid said.
Sorrow Qing Si didn't care. She was in a terrible mood.
"Young palace master, did you know that when you first came, Xiao Mei and I were stunned? How could there be such a beautiful woman in the world? No one in the Ice God Palace can compare to you. "The first maid immediately changed the topic.
"Yes, ah, no, the palace master is also beautiful." The other maid immediately knew that she said the wrong thing and corrected herself.
"Ah, yes, it's the palace master. The palace master is the most beautiful, then the young palace master." The other maid stuck out her tongue. Clearly, she didn't mean it.
"Xiao Mei, Xiao Ling." Sorrow Qing Si said after a while.
"Young palace master, what is it?" The two maids immediately asked.
"I have a favor to ask of you." Sorrow Qing Si said.
"Ah, young palace master, you can't say that. If there's anything, just tell me and Xiao Mei. Don't say 'beg'. All these years, it's because young palace master took care of us that we weren't sent to those turtles." Xiao Ling immediately said.
"That's right, Young Palace Master. If there's anything you need, just tell us. We'll definitely help you!" Xiao Mei immediately said.
"In less than a year, something might happen to me. At that time, I will ask the palace master to let you go. I want you to help me pass a message to the Daikon State's Holy Hall!" Sorrowful Green Silk said with a sorrowful tone.
"Is that where the Young Palace Master came from?" Xiao Mei asked.
"Something happened? What happened? Could it be, could it be, the Young Empress, it can't be you. How could it be you …! "Little Ling screamed.
Just as Xiao Ling was panicking, Xiao Mei suddenly cried out.
"Ah, Palace Lord, this servant greets the Palace Lord!" Xiao Mei hurriedly bowed.
"This servant greets the Palace Master!" Xiao Ling also hurriedly bowed to the person who had suddenly appeared behind her.
It was a woman who looked somewhat similar to Sorrowful Green Silk. The woman's face was very cold, making people feel afraid just by looking at her. This was the Ice God Palace Palace Master.
"Go down!" Ice God Palace Master said.
"Yes!" The two maids hurriedly ran out.
Sorrowful Green Silk didn't turn around. Instead, she picked up a comb and started combing her hair. Of course, she could see the Palace Master behind her from the mirror.
"Green Silk!" Ice God Palace Master called softly.
"Palace Master!" Sorrowful Green Silk called softly.
Ice God Palace Master's expression changed slightly as she sighed. "Looks like you don't recognize me as your ancestor anymore!"
"Green Silk doesn't dare!" Sorrowful Green Silk said lightly.
Her tone was like she wanted to push people a thousand miles away.
The Ice God Palace Master seemed to be in a daze. She shook her head and said, "From the first day I brought you back, I knew your talent was extraordinary. You're no weaker than me in using my bloodline God Art. I'm very happy."
Sorrowful Green Silk bit her lips and didn't say anything.
"If you don't want to, then go. Let me do the sacrifice this time. But the next time ten thousand years later, I won't be able to do anything!" Ice God Palace Master shook her head.
Sorrowful Green Silk's expression was hurt. Looking at Zhong Shan's clothes on the dressing table and the little person Zhong Shan carved for her, she couldn't stop her tears from flowing.
"The Sacrificial Ceremony requires more and more Godly Souls. Right now, in the entire Ice God Palace, only you and I have such pure Godly Souls. Ten thousand years later, the requirements will definitely be higher than now. If we can't succeed again, the entire world, the entire Great Thousand World, will be plunged into misery and suffering! "Ice God Palace Master sighed.
"Palace, Palace Master! I, I … "Sorrowful Green Silk bit her lips.
"Speak!" Ice God Palace Master looked at Sorrowful Green Silk.
"You should've heard my conversation with Little Mei and Little Ling. I'll do the sacrifice this time. I just want to ask you for something," Sorrowful Green Silk said with difficulty.
"What? Speak! "Ice God Palace Master's eyes lit up.
"After this, Palace Master, let Little Mei and Little Ling go. I want them to take something to the Daikon State!" Sorrowful Green Silk's tears kept flowing.
"Okay, I agree. When the time comes, I'll personally escort them to the Daikon State!" Ice God Palace Master said with certainty.
"Okay!" Sorrowful Green Silk replied softly.
Seeing that Sorrowful Green Silk was still sad, Ice God Palace Master said softly, "Green Silk, you saw it too. Your sacrifice this time isn't for the Ice God Palace, but for the entire Great Thousand World. For the people of the world and also for your man. Only with your sacrifice can he survive in the Great Thousand World. In the future, everyone will remember you! "
"I know. I'm tired. Palace Master, I want to rest!" Sorrowful Green Silk held back the grievances in her heart.
"Okay, rest well!" Ice God Palace Master said softly.
With that, Ice God Palace Master stepped out of the hall. Out of the hall, Ice God Palace Master sighed slightly as if a wish had been fulfilled.
In the hall, Sorrowful Green Silk hugged Zhong Shan's robe and squatted in the corner. She hugged the robe with all her might, tears of grievance in her eyes.
Perhaps the corner could give Sorrowful Green Silk some support.
After Zhong Shan and his group came out of the Zhuangzi Training Hall, they went straight to the extreme north.
After a few months, Zhong Shan and his group finally arrived at the extreme north.
It was a boundless snowfield. Snowflakes were still falling from the sky and the temperature was slightly cold. However, for a group of peerless experts, this environment was nothing special. At most, it was visually different from other places.
Zhong Shan and his group of twelve people landed on the top of a large snowy mountain and looked into the depths of the snowfield.
In front of Zhong Shan and his group, there was a red-robed man kneeling.
"Inspector of the Extreme North, Dou Wei, greets the Holy King!" The red-robed man said respectfully.
The Inspector of the Extreme North had a nice name, but in reality, he was just a scout. He reported some major events in the Extreme North to the Holy Court of the Daikon State. Of course, other than the Extreme North, the Daikon State had sent people to all the major territories.
"Get up!" Zhong Shan said lightly.
"Yes!" Dou Wei stood up excitedly.
Although Dou Wei was sent out very early and did not know much about the Daikon State, the battle of the High Heaven and the battle against the three Sages was too grand. There were not many experts in the North Continent who had not heard of it. For someone like Dou Wei who collected intelligence, he would definitely know more.
Those were Sages, rumored to be the strongest existence in the world. However, the Holy King was unscathed when facing the three Sages and even slapped them twice.
When he heard the news, Dou Wei's entire body trembled with excitement. Dou Wei had joined the Daikon State in the Small Thousand World, so he naturally understood the Holy King's great talent and strategy.
The Small Thousand World had not been unified for hundreds of thousands of years, but the Holy King had unified the Small Thousand World in just eight hundred years. Although he was a vassal of the Taichu Holy Court, Dou Wei believed that as long as there was time, the Holy King would definitely become stronger.
The Holy King had done it. In just a few hundred years, the Daikon State had reached such a level. As a subject of the Daikon State, he was naturally excited and proud.
"Is there any news about the Ice God Palace?" Zhong Shan asked.
"Holy King, your subject is incompetent and cannot explore the depths!" Dou Wei immediately said.
"Oh?"
"The Extreme North is very large, several times larger than an ordinary territory. It can be divided into three parts!" Dou Wei said.
Zhong Shan did not speak and waited for him to continue.
"The first part is the southern region of this territory, which is where we are now. There are three Celestial Dynasties and dozens of Imperial Dynasties. There are constant battles, but they are not the main forces. "
"The second part is the northern region of this territory. That is the territory of the Crystal Race and the Ice God Palace. Unfortunately, with your subject's strength, I cannot go to the north! "
"Why?" Zhong Shan asked.
"Because the third part is the center of this territory. It is like a heavenly barrier, the Black Tortoise Holy Land. They prevent outsiders from entering. Your subject has tried to go in several times, but I was stopped by the Black Tortoise Holy Land. There was one time when your subject almost could not continue to be loyal to the Daikon State!" Dou Wei said.
"Mm, you have worked hard!" Zhong Shan nodded.
"Thank you, Holy King. Your subject is not tired at all!" Dou Wei immediately said excitedly.
"The Black Tortoise Holy Land blocks everything outside. Is that the Black Tortoise Holy Land?" Zhong Shan asked.
Zhong Shan gazed into the distance. There were four towering pillars at the edge of the sky. The pillars were greenish-black in color. Due to the mountains and clouds, it was impossible to see the bottom of the pillars clearly. The top of the pillars seemed to pierce into the depths of the starry sky, and one could not see the end of it.
Although the four pillars did not look far from each other, they were very far away from each other. They occupied the north, south, east, and west respectively.
"Yes, that is it. Unfortunately, your subject cannot go in. The Black Tortoise Holy Land does not allow anyone to get close!" Dou Wei said immediately.
"Zhong Shan, there seems to be …!" Huan Ji said solemnly.
Zhong Shan? Dou Wei was shocked. Who was this woman? She was so tightly covered that she dared to call the Holy King by his name?
"What is it?" Zhong Shan asked.
"The aura of the Heavenly Demon Realm. I feel a strong aura of the Heavenly Demon Realm!" Huan Ji shook her head. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
