A desolate forest lay on the ground. This was where the Quiet Spring was located. Back then, Lin Muyu and the Seven Luminaries Demon Emperor joined forces to defeat the guardian of the Quiet Spring — East Unicorn Ghost Emperor. Now, several years had passed. Everything had changed, except for the deathly aura of the Quiet Spring.
The ground was filled with Ghost Soldiers wailing miserably. They wailed all day long because they were vengeful spirits that had been forcefully kept in the Ghost Domain. Their bodies were enduring the torture of the eighteen levels of hell every single moment. Even though they had become the Ghost Emperor's subordinates, it was the same. This kind of pain had not decreased by a single day, nor had it disappeared.
The area within ten miles of the Quiet Spring was guarded by a large number of ghost dragon leaders flying back and forth in the sky. There were even many Ghost Realm Lords guarding the area. Lin Muyu and Qin Yin couldn't fly in directly. They could only fly to the ground and negotiate with the guards.
From afar, a potbellied Official Lord walked over with a spear in his hand. He said respectfully, "I'm the Official Lord of the East Sea under the rule of His Majesty the East Unicorn Ghost Emperor. May I ask what brings the two gods to the Nether Spring?"
Lin Muyu said, "This lady beside me is Qin Yin, the Goddess of Grace. She is in charge of the order of the six realms, so she discovered that the order in the Nether Spring has been completely disrupted. We suspect that something big has happened in the Nether Spring, so we came here without permission. Please allow me and Little Yin to enter the Nether Spring to investigate."
"You two want to enter the Quiet Spring?" The East Sea Prefecture Lord was slightly startled.
"Why, can't I?" Lin Muyu was a little puzzled and asked, "Official Monarch, could it be that something unusual has happened in the Nether Spring? If there is, I hope you can tell us honestly. "
"There's nothing unusual, but …"
The Lord of the East Sea Official hesitated for a moment and said, "I dare not hide this from you, Martial God and Grace Goddess. In the past two years, the Quiet Spring has indeed been suspicious, and its hostility has increased a lot. The power from the Quiet Spring has also increased by at least five times. More importantly … the East Unicorn Ghost Emperor has been cultivating in seclusion in the Quiet Spring for as long as three years and has not sent any messages to the outside world. I can only lead my troops to guard this place and dare not to be negligent.
"Dong Lin has been in seclusion for three years?" Lin Muyu was stunned.
"Yes."
"Ordinary ghostly immortals wouldn't go into seclusion for so long, right?"
"No, the Ghost God's body is cold in nature, so he must return to the surface every once in a while to absorb Yang energy, so I am very worried. I suspect that Your Majesty Ghost Emperor has encountered some trouble cultivating in the Nether Spring, but I … as a subject, I cannot overstep my authority. I cannot enter the Nether Spring without permission, or it will be an act of betrayal."
"So that's how it is." Lin Muyu raised her eyebrows and looked at the Lord of the East Sea Official. "Your loyalty is admirable. How about this, Xiao Yin and I will enter the Nether Spring to investigate. This way, you don't have to enter personally, and you won't be accused of betrayal. When the East Unicorn Ghost Emperor asks, you can just say that Xiao Yin and I forced our way into the Nether Spring."
The Lord of the East Sea Official couldn't help but laugh, "Although I'm just a Lord, I'm not that despicable. We don't know whether the East Unicorn Ghost Emperor is dead or alive, so it's reasonable for the two of you to enter the Nether Spring to investigate. There's no need for you two to force your way in. I'll take you there right now.
"Then … thank you very much."
Lin Muyu was a little surprised. The East Unicorn Ghost Emperor was a very narrow-minded person, but she didn't expect his subordinates to be so understanding and reasonable. It was simply very surprising.
Flying along the withered ground, the Lord of the East Sea Official couldn't fly very fast. Lin Muyu and Qin Yin could only fly slowly. The closer they got to the Nether Spring, the denser the Yin Qi became, so much so that Lin Muyu and Qin Yin had to use their divine energy to resist it. Suddenly, the avatars of the Martial God and the Graceful Goddess appeared faintly beside the two. The group of ghost dragon leaders and ghost soldiers were dumbfounded. It was a realm that they yearned for but could never reach!
Soon, the huge entrance to the Nether Spring appeared in front of them, but it was guarded by a large number of ghost soldiers.
"Disperse, everyone disperse!"
The Lord of the East Sea Official shouted in a low voice. His prestige was quite good, so the group of ghost soldiers dispersed one after another. At the same time, they looked at Lin Muyu and Qin Yin in awe.
"Supreme Immortals, once you enter the Nether Spring, it will be very difficult to come out. Have you made up your mind?" the Lord of the East Sea Official asked in a low voice.
"Don't worry."
Lin Muyu smiled slightly. She had been to the Nether Spring before and naturally knew how powerful it was. But now that she was an Martial God, her state of mind had been improved several times. She was confident that she could come out of the Nether Spring unscathed.
In front of them, the Nether Spring was like a mirror upside down on the ground. There were no ripples on the surface of the water. In fact, there was no water at all. The Nether Spring was called a spring, but it was actually an illusory world.
"Let's go."
Lin Muyu jumped into the Nether Spring, and Qin Yin followed without hesitation with the Dong Hua Sword.
Swoosh, swoosh …
Two ripples of light spread out on the surface of the Nether Spring. The Lord of the East Sea Official looked at it quietly and said to himself, "I hope you can solve the problem in the Nether Spring. Don't let the Ghost Emperor continue to sink."
…
The light flashed, and Lin Muyu and Qin Yin had already fallen into the first layer of the Nether Spring.
"Xiao Yin, hold my hand."
"Okay."
The two held hands and their minds were connected. This way, they could maintain the same state of mind in the Nether Spring. The first layer was the Blessed Shade World. The flowers and birds were peaceful, and the pedestrians were interwoven. There was almost no trace of hostility here.
Qin Yin held Lin Muyu's hand and walked on the grass. She took a deep breath and smiled. "It's so nice here …"
Lin Muyu nodded.
Only those with pure hearts would be able to feel peace here. Otherwise, what they would feel would be empty violence and lust that had nowhere to vent.
"Buzz!"
Ripples surged in front of them. In the blink of an eye, the Blessed Shade World had disappeared and was replaced by the second layer — the Lonely World. The surroundings had turned into a boundless desert. Not only was it empty, but it was also very boring.
However, Lin Muyu and Qin Yin were not afraid of this level of loneliness at all.
Swoosh, swoosh …
A strong wind blew in the desert. It was so strong that they could barely open their eyes. However, Lin Muyu held Qin Yin's hand tightly and activated her Sacred Martial Power to resist the wind. Then, she said in a low voice, "Xiao Yin, how are you?"
"I'm fine." Qin Yin squinted her beautiful eyes. Her body was surrounded by dense Order Power. It was naturally not a problem for the two Righteous Gods to resist this level of wind.
In the end, the wind that was originally intended to blow the two apart failed. The Lonely World collapsed on its own.
Swoosh!
The two of them abruptly descended into the world of the third level. This level was a world of slaughter. Even though the two of them were holding hands, they could still see a bloody and chaotic battlefield in front of them. The faces of countless enemies appeared before their eyes. The silhouettes of the Ashen Crane, Lin Yu, Qin Yi, the Demon Emperor, Lei Chong and the others appeared one by one. They could even hear Lei Chong's furious roars.
"Go to hell!"
The battle axe swept across. Lei Chong's attack was still so forceful and overbearing.
However, Lin Muyu was no longer the same as before. She hugged Qin Yin in her arms and shouted, "You are not my match when you are alive. Do you think you can defeat me when you are dead? Get lost! "
Her shout turned into a surge of Sacred Martial Power. Lei Chong's figure instantly disappeared without a trace. Lin Muyu flew forward with Qin Yin. She coldly looked at the enemies that appeared in the bloody battlefield.
"Lin Muyu, I want you to die!"
In the sky, a person roared arrogantly.
It was Luo Lan, the only God in the mortal world at that time. She was also the culprit who killed Lei Hong.
Lin Muyu raised her head and looked at him. Her eyes were calm as she said, "You are just a Will Power that no longer exists. Why are you still pretending to be mighty here?"
Luo Lan's figure then disappeared. Lin Muyu continued to fly forward. This was a battle of the state of mind. Obviously, none of these illusions could shake Lin Muyu's will. If she was so easily shaken by these enemies, she would not be a Martial God.
Soon, many people appeared on the ground.
Ji Yao, Lv Zhao, Sage Sovereign, Yangshang, Duo La, Chen Yu and the others appeared one by one. They all cursed and roared at the top of their lungs — —
"Lin Muyu, return my life!"
"Lin Muyu, I want you to die! Xiyin, you have no right to kill me. I refuse to accept this! "
"I am the Empress. You are not worthy! Go to hell! "
"Qin Yin, what kind of Empress are you? What kind of ruler are you? You are just a bad woman whose hands are stained with blood!"
…
Lin Muyu looked down at them. Qin Yin, who was in her arms, couldn't help but close her eyes. She had killed too many people. She didn't want to see it anymore. Her inner demons were stirring up trouble.
"Xiao Yin, don't think too much. Everything we do is for the people we cherish. "
Lin Muyu said gently.
"Yes." Qin Yin nodded.
Lin Muyu raised her left palm and pointed it at the ground. Countless sword qi flew out. She shouted in a low voice, "Under the Heavenly Dao, you are all ants. What is there to talk about revenge? Die! "
"Boom!"
The ground sank. The enemies in the chaos disappeared one by one. They successfully passed this level.
Light suddenly appeared in front of them. The fourth level, the World of Greed.
Lin Muyu had seen the World of Greed before. She immediately said, "Xiao Yin, guard your will. This level's test is what you want the most. You must endure it."
"Ah?"
Qin Yin was a little confused. When she looked down, her delicate body trembled slightly. She was completely stunned. She saw a person. She saw an old figure sitting in the depths of the palace. He was draped in an imperial robe and was reading memorials in flamboyant calligraphy. His expression was as peaceful and benevolent as it was in the past. It was just that he coughed frequently, indicating that he was not in good health.
"Father …" Qin Yin murmured. She unknowingly left Lin Muyu's hand and walked towards the palace in the distance.
"Xiao Yin, don't go!" Lin Muyu shouted loudly. However, Qin Yin couldn't hear her. The heart demon of the World of Greed could only be resolved by herself.
The scene suddenly changed to a beautiful spring scene. It was the hunting ground of the royal family. Peach blossoms were in full bloom. Under one of the peach blossoms, an eight year old Qin Yin was holding a specially made thin sword. She was waving it with all her strength. Her palm was enshrouded with the faint light of the God Binding Chains. On the side, Qin Jin still looked like a middle-aged man. He was wearing battle armor. He smiled and said, "Yes, that's it … Xiao Yin is really powerful … Cough cough, it's a pity that Father's sword skills are clumsy and can't teach you anything. However, Father will definitely find you the most powerful teacher. Xiao Yin, who do you want to be your teacher?"
Qin Yin withdrew her long sword and said in a tender voice, "Father, I want Big Brother Qin Lei to be my teacher. His sword skills are very powerful!"
Qin Jin couldn't help but laugh. "That child Ah Lei is powerful, but … his sword skills are not suitable for you. You are a princess, the heir to the empire. It's fine for you to learn sword skills. But if you want to learn sword skills, do you want to be a female general who goes into battle and kills the enemy?"
"Why not?" Qin Yin blinked her eyes and looked at her father innocently.
Qin Jin smiled. "You can. As long as Xiao Yin wants it, Father will find it for you."
