Chapter 423 The Wait Is So Painful
Chapter 423 The Wait Is So Painful
"My dear brother... Jiang Xiaoyu's tombstone?"
The moment she saw the stele, the Dragon Maiden was slightly startled.
"Li Muyang, this is your tombstone!"
Although she knew about the identity of Li Muyang who had been helping her since ten thousand years ago, the carefree Dragon Maiden was only surprised at the beginning.
Now, she had calmly accepted the fact that Li Muyang, who was helping her, was an old monster resurrected from ten thousand years ago.
She wasn't even scared in her tone.
The Dragon Maiden's brave heart, along with her straightforward personality, made Li Muyang smile.
At this moment, the Dragon Maiden's consistently lighthearted tone felt incredibly dear to him.
He looked at the stele floating in the mist, smiled, and spoke with a complex tone, "This tombstone, it should have been set up by Zhi Wei... hmm, also known as Fairy Qinghe."
He felt a bit of regret that the archway leading to the Peaceful Realms was broken.
He had been thinking about entering the Peaceful Realms to look for the Jade Mantis.
If he could find the Jade Mantis and take it out of the Peaceful Realms, its journey southward would definitely help Chu Qingxue.
This was an immediate solution Li Muyang had thought of to assist Chu Qingxue.
The Jade Mantis was not a creature from the North Land and wouldn't be harmed by the Yin Mountain's great array.
Unfortunately, the archway was shattered.
Although Li Muyang knew that in this mysterious and unpredictable Underground Mist World, there must be other entrances to the Peaceful Realms,
he had no time to look for them now. Discover hidden tales at My Virtual Library Empire
His instinct told him that he must clear the level as quickly as possible.
With the major reshuffling of the Demon Path situation beyond the border, he needed to seize this critical opportunity.
With these thoughts in mind, Li Muyang sighed lightly and said, "I'm going back first, I'll leave my body in your care."
Li Muyang said, "Follow the same path you took when you came, fly straight, don't wander off, keep flying back to the surface, and then wait for my return."
"Next, we need to go find the Lord of Yangshou Mountain to get the Dragon Spine Sword."
"Inside the Dragon Spine Sword sleeps the soul force of an ancient dragon lord. If you can get the Dragon Spine Sword, your path to dragon transformation will be secure."
Even if she obtained the Dragon Spine Sword, the Moon Biter Dragon couldn't immediately transform into a dragon, since her cultivation power was still far from that of a True Immortal.
And the current broken world doesn't support the existence of a True Immortal.
He didn't even go look for Yan Xiaoru.
Li Muyang slept in his room until dusk the following day before he finally opened his eyes.
After getting up, Li Muyang performed a simple wash, then, unable to wait any longer, closed his room door, sat alone in the inner chamber on the couch, and entered the game.
As darkness swelled like a tide, Li Muyang found himself back in the body of the dragon maiden.
He opened his eyes and saw the dawn's first light rising in the distant sky, while a chilling wind howled through the mountains.
The Evil God had descended to the south, and in the North Land beyond the borders, a winter chill blew even in summer.
Once online, Li Muyang flew straight toward Yangshou Mountain.
Although he had never visited Yangshou Mountain in reality, in "Deadly Weeds," he was on good terms with the old immortal of Yangshou Mountain.
Now, familiar with the way, he flew to Yangshou Mountain and looked down from a high vantage point upon the entire mountain.
However, he found that this once secluded land that nurtured a True Immortal was now brimming with sinister energy and polluted air.
Moreover, Yangshou Mountain's mass was significantly diminished, half of it seemed as if someone had powerfully shattered the land from the mountain waist up, clearly the marks of a battleground from a dark catastrophe.
The collapsed Yangshou Mountain no longer had its erstwhile celestial aura.
Now, the air was thick with the pungent smell of fire and smoke, and the scorching odor of sulfur, as if standing right at a volcanic crater.
Two paper figures flew out from the mountain and bowed respectfully to Li Muyang.
"Is it the Dragon Goddess who has arrived? The master has sent us to invite you."
These two paper figures, pale-faced and with a vacant gaze, looked slightly eerie.
Li Muyang, however, directly descended into Yangshou Mountain, showing no fear.
At this moment, he possessed the confidence to confront face to face with these demonic beings from beyond the borders.
Following the paper figures, Li Muyang swiftly arrived at a ruined Daoist temple.
This place was once the Daoist practice site of Yangshou Mountain's old immortal but was now nothing but ruins and rubble.
The Shan Yang Lord who had lived more than a thousand years resided among these ruins dating back ten thousand years.
The air was filled with a kind of demonic energy, somewhat similar to the Demon Sword City he had visited before.
In the center of these ruins stood a huge Pill Furnace.
Under the intense flames of the furnace, an old man, hunched and frail, cracked a hideous smile at Li Muyang.
"... Dragon Goddess, you've finally arrived."
"This old man has had a hard time waiting for you!"
