"That's the last Heaven Punishment Troll that Immortal Master's father Qiu Jin left here."
The Dragon Emperor explained to Li Mu, "The giant devils of this clan are warlike and cruel. They used to instigate endless slaughters. Father God personally imprisoned them in the Heavenly Law Punishment Tower, where they will suffer the pain of being corroded by ice and snow. One day, when they truly repent, they will be released."
"There's still a chance to go out?"
"In that case, Immortal Master Mu Yun is really merciful."
They kept going down.
Along the way, the lightning and thunder became more frequent.
With the fleeting lightning, Li Mu saw many strange creatures.
"That's the Jingwei Bird. It likes to eat brains, move mountains, and swallow hundreds of thousands of creatures …"
"That's the Ice Troll, which used to hunt Divine Realm Gods."
"That's the Blood Hunter Clan, which betrayed the Heavenly Law Alliance. Three hundred members of that clan are all imprisoned here …"
"The yellow-robed old man locked in ice is a traitor of the Heavenly Law Alliance. He used to be one of the Six Sovereigns and Six Emperors. However, he was found to be a spy of the Taoist Master Alliance. My father couldn't bear to kill him, so he died here."
"Oh, that giant ginseng is said to have escaped from the Upper Three Heavens and is temporarily sealed here. Unfortunately, we can't find the secrets of the Upper Three Heavens from it."
The Dragon Emperor told Li Mu everything he knew.
Along the way, he introduced everything that Li Mu was interested in one by one.
Just like that, he walked down the winding ice stairs for about an hour before finally arriving at the bottom of the Heavenly Law Punishment Tower.
Li Mu calculated.
The vertical distance was at least ten thousand meters.
The immensity of the Heavenly Way Punishment Tower shocked Li Mu a little.
"Young Master, be careful. We've reached the bottom of the tower. It's more dangerous here."
The Dragon Emperor reminded him again.
Five or six minutes later, they finally reached the end of the winding ice stairs.
The two of them came to the flat ground.
The layer of ice under their feet was faintly milky, emitting a glimmer.
The surrounding environment was not as dark as before.
They were surrounded by ice walls.
Between the ice walls, there was a canyon that looked like a slit in the sky, leading to the depths of darkness.
They walked along the ice canyon for half an hour.
"Here we are."
The Dragon Emperor said.
He stuck the torch in his hand into a protruding piece of ice on the ice rock beside him.
It was as if some kind of formation had been activated.
Milky white patterns flickered on the surrounding ice walls, illuminating the surroundings to the finest detail.
This was a huge ice cave.
Right in front of them, there was a ten-meter-wide, ten-meter-tall square ice prism. It was sparkling and translucent, like the most flawless crystal in the world, standing in the middle of the ice cave.
Within the ice crystal pillar, there was the figure of a woman in broken golden armor.
She was sitting cross-legged, her golden armor broken, her black hair disheveled, and her face beautiful. She was covered in ice, but she gave off the feeling that she was still alive, as if she could open her eyes in the next moment.
The Dragon Emperor slowly walked forward, formed a palm seal, and pressed it against the ice pillar.
Strange patterns spread out on the surface of the ice with his palm as the center.
The next moment —
Xiu!
It was like a sharp sword piercing through the air.
The golden-armored fairy in the ice pillar opened her eyes.
Her eyes were ancient and full of vicissitudes, clear and pure like a boundless galaxy, yet also like a bottomless abyss.
She glanced at the Dragon Emperor and then fixed her eyes on Li Mu.
She looked at Li Mu quietly, with a trace of strangeness in her eyes.
"Young Master, if you have any questions, you can ask her now. Being suppressed in the ice coffin, she can't break free. "
The Dragon Emperor came to Li Mu's side.
Li Mu said, "Senior, I want to talk to her in private."
The Dragon Emperor hesitated for a moment, then nodded and turned to leave.
Li Mu's Divine Consciousness was extremely powerful, not inferior to that of his previous life.
He vigilantly scanned the surroundings to make sure that the Dragon Emperor had gone far away and there was no monitoring or eavesdropping formation. Then, he slowly came to the so-called Dark Ice Coffin.
The golden-armored fairy's eyes were fixed on Li Mu the whole time.
When she saw Li Mu approaching, a hint of mockery appeared on her face.
"If Mu Yun asked you to come here, you can shut up now, because I won't say anything."
Before Li Mu said anything, the golden-armored fairy's voice came from the ice layer.
Li Mu sat down outside the Mysterious Ice Coffin of Cloudy Rock.
He carefully observed the woman.
Finally, he confirmed that she was indeed the woman Li Lin and Xue Rui had described.
Without saying anything, Li Mu directly took out the black-and-white Yin-Yang Jade Pendant.
"Boom!"
The Dark Ice Coffin suddenly shook violently.
The moment the Mysterious Lady in Golden Armor saw the jade pendant, she suddenly jumped up. Like a female leopard, she rushed over and hit the outer layer of the ice coffin, causing the whole coffin to shake. However, she bounced back and sat in the center again.
"Young Master …"
The Dragon Emperor's panicked voice came from a distance.
Li Mu said, "I'm fine."
The Dragon Emperor's aura stopped for a moment and then went far away again.
"Who are you?"
The golden-armored fairy's voice came from the ice coffin, full of urgency.
She rose to her feet and stared at Li Mu with her eyes blazing like two balls of fire.
Li Mu said, "You should know this jade pendant. The child you stole from the Heavenly Dao Palace had such a thing … I am that child."
"You?"
There was a hint of suspicion in the golden-armored fairy's voice. She examined Li Mu over and over again with an unprecedented look. In the end, her eyes turned into a touch of mockery. She said, "Humph, Immortal Master Mu Yun is also a great immortal. How can you deceive yourself with this little trick …"
She looked very cautious.
After the initial excitement, she slowly sat in the middle of the ice coffin and resumed her original posture.
Li Mu played with the jade pendant in his hand and looked very calm.
The Queen Mother of the West's reaction was within his expectation.
If the Queen Mother of the West immediately believed his identity as soon as she saw the jade pendant and said everything as if she had seen her son who had been missing for many years, it would be very suspicious.
A female Immortal who had been imprisoned by Immortal Master Mu Yun for almost twenty years and still failed to learn the whereabouts of the baby from her. How strong was her willpower and willpower? How could she open her heart and give up all her doubts just because of a jade pendant?
"Queen Mother of the West, don't you believe the jade pendant in my hand is real?"
Li Mu asked.
The Queen Mother of the West sneered and said, "What's the point of the jade pendant being real or fake? The first jade pendant was created by Immortal Master Mu Yun. With his cultivation level and God Arts, it's not impossible for him to create another one after so many years. "
Li Mu smiled.
He did not refute.
Instead, he began to tell a story.
The story began with Li Lin and Xue Rui dreaming that the golden-armored fairy sent their baby to them.
After a while, the Queen Mother of the West's face finally changed again.
Because she knew very well that she had been keeping the secret all these years. The Heavenly Dao Alliance could not know the whereabouts of the baby, let alone that she had sent the baby to the couple with a secret skill …
"Are you really that baby?"
The Queen Mother of the West's voice was trembling.
Li Mu said, "Yes, my name is Li Mu. I ascended to the Middle Three Heavens more than a month ago."
He roughly told her what he had experienced since his ascension.
Li Mu was very clear that if he wanted to win the Queen Mother of the West's trust, he had to say more to prove his identity.
Only when the Queen Mother of the West approved of him would she tell him her real purpose.
The sharp eyes of the Queen Mother of the West gradually softened.
"Senior, why did you steal me out of the Heavenly Dao Palace?"
Li Mu seized the opportunity and asked straightforwardly.
The Queen Mother of the West just stared at him as if she did not hear Li Mu's question.
After a while, she said, "Let's go, leave the Heavenly Dao Palace."
Li Mu frowned and said, "Senior, you have to give me a reason."
"There is only one reason." The Queen Mother of the West said, "If you stay here, you will die."
Li Mu smiled and said, "I don't think so. According to the Heavenly Dao Palace, I am the Taoist Disciple created by Immortal Master Mu Yun. I am the only one who can take charge of the Heavenly Dao Palace. If I stay here, it won't be long before I become one of the few most powerful people in the Middle Three Heavens. How can I die?"
A trace of sarcasm flashed across the Queen Mother of the West's eyes.
She sighed softly in her heart.
"What I'm afraid of comes true."
"Years ago, I risked my life to send this kid out.
But today, he came to me. "
"Can I really not escape this disaster?"
"It seems that I didn't think it through."
"I thought that by sending this kid to the inferior world, he will be completely safe, and then he can rise again. But I didn't expect that the inferior world was so narrow that it could not cultivate the vision of a real superior. Instead, he was so short-sighted that he was blinded by a few words of the Heavenly Dao Alliance."
"You are still alive because Immortal Master Mu Yun is in closed-door training. When he comes out, it will be the day you die."
Xi Wangmu said word by word.
Li Mu smiled faintly.
"I have reason to suspect that Senior had an ulterior motive when you kidnapped me back then. Now that I've successfully returned to the Heavenly Dao Palace, you have no choice but to frighten me and frighten me so that I can escape in fright. Thus, if Senior can't tell me the real reason, it will be very difficult for me to accept Senior's suggestion."
He fiddled with the jade pendant in his hand.
He looked calm on the surface, but his heart was in turmoil.
The Heavenly Law Alliance said that the Queen Mother of the West was a traitor, so she stole him from the Heavenly Law Palace and offered him to the Dao Sovereign Alliance.
Judging from the Queen Mother of the West's behavior, she actually cared about him?
Of course, Li Mu did not rule out the possibility that the Queen Mother of the West was acting.
After all, they were all big shots of the Middle Three Heavens. Even if they were sealed, they were still like dragons hiding in the abyss. Their willpower was unwavering. Even in such a desperate situation, they were still plotting to turn the tables.
Anyway, Li Mu told himself silently in his heart.
For the time being, don't trust anyone.
I only believe in myself.
