Zi Ji looked at Yun Che's reaction and continued slowly: "It's normal that you have never heard of this name. Even in the three holy places outside the Supreme Sea Palace, there are only a few people who know its existence."
"Then where is it? Senior Zi just said that it is not in Tianxuan Continent, what does it mean?" Yun Che asked with a slight frown.
Zi Ji stretched out his finger and pointed due south: "It is located in the south of Tianxuan Continent, on the boundless South China Sea."
"South China Sea?" Yun Che looked stunned.
"Have you ever been to the Supreme Sea Palace?" Zi Ji asked.
"No." Yun Che said: "But I know that the Supreme Sea Palace is located on the southern edge of Tianxuan Continent, more than three thousand miles to the south, on the South China Sea. This is where the name 'Sea Palace' comes from. Could it be that, Zi
Is the Moon-Slaughter Demon Cave mentioned by my senior related to the Supreme Sea Palace?"
"That's right." Zi Ji nodded slightly: "Everyone in the world knows that the four holy places have their own guardianship missions. They have guarded the safety of Tianxuan Continent for thousands of years, so they are called the sacred 'Holy Land'. However,
, to this day, among the four holy places, the only one that truly adheres to its mission of guardianship is the Supreme Sea Palace."
"That place called the 'Moon-Slaughter Devil's Cave' is the place where the Supreme Sea Palace has guarded for generations?" Yun Che said.
Zi Ji nodded again: "The Supreme Ocean Palace is three thousand miles away from the edge of the mainland. Not only does it have to be prepared for shipwrecks that may come at any time, but it also faces many inconveniences on weekdays. However, the Supreme Ocean Palace has existed for ten thousand years, but it has never been moved to the mainland.
Going to the Moon-Slaughter Demon Cave is the only reason."
"What kind of existence is the Moon-Slaughter Demon Cave? Why does the Supreme Sea Palace stay in the South China Sea to guard it? And its name..." Zi Ji's narration made Yun Che have more and more questions.
.
Zi Ji closed his eyes slightly, collected his thoughts, and continued: "I can only give you the simplest description about the Moon-Slaughter Demon Cave. That was probably more than 10,000 years ago, when the seven ancestors of the Supreme Sea Palace
While swimming in the South China Sea, he suddenly discovered a large area of water that was dyed pitch black. This pitch black sea was very vast, with countless corpses of the same pitch black sea beasts floating there. Later, he found the center of this pitch black sea...
It’s an island completely dyed black.”
"That island released extremely rich Yin energy, and it was also the culprit that turned a large area of the sea into a dead zone. Later, the ancestors of the Sea Palace came to the dark island and discovered a huge cave in the island, and the terrifying
The Yin Qi came from this dark cave. The deeper they entered the cave, the heavier the Yin Qi became, which greatly suppressed their profound strength. But in the deepest part of the cave, they encountered
A terrifying dark mysterious beast has arrived."
"Dark mysterious beast?" Yun Che felt more and more bizarre the more he listened.
"The dark mysterious beast calls itself the Moon-Slaying Demon Lord. It hates light and is especially afraid of the moonlight. Other than that, it knows nothing about it. The power aura of the dark mysterious beast is not too strong. It is roughly in the Ba Xuan
In the early stage of the realm, the seven ancestors of the Supreme Ocean Palace have all reached the peak of their profound strength. They are all in the late emperor stage and are at the top of the world. However, deep in the cave, their profound strength was actually suppressed to the realm of Wang Xuan. Under the Moon-Slaughter Demon Lord
There was no way to fight back, and only one of the seven ancestors escaped, while the other six ancestors were all killed in the Moon-Slaughter Demon Cave."
The Moon-Slaughter Devil Lord did not chase the only Sea Palace ancestor who escaped from the cave after he left the cave. He was afraid of light during the day and moonlight at night. The Moon-Slaughter Devil Lord might never leave that devil's cave. But, inside the devil's cave,
The dark yin energy released is endless. Moreover, when the ancestors of Haidian escaped from the devil's cave, they heard the roar of the Moon-Slaughter Demon Lord: When the darkness submerges the entire world, it will be the day it returns to the world.
.
"The Moon-Slaughter Demon Lord... actually such a monster still exists?" Yun Che was getting more and more shocked. If this was not said by Zi Ji himself, he would just regard it as a legend made up by some idle people: "After that, could it be that
What method did the ancestor of the Sea Palace use to seal the devil's cave to prevent the dark Yin energy from leaking out?"
"Haha, it's true." Zi Ji glanced at Yun Che appreciatively: "I don't know whether that dark yin energy comes from the body of the Moon-Slaughter Demon Lord, or from some unknown and terrifying existence deep in the devil's cave. But if it comes from
If it continues like this, one day it will spread to Tianxuan Continent, and the consequences will be unimaginable. Moreover, the roar of the Moon-Slaughter Demon Lord also made the ancestor of Sea Palace unable to let go. So he united with all the powerful people in Sea Palace to
He did not hesitate to sacrifice a dozen of Ocean Palace's most powerful mysterious weapons and a huge amount of purple-veined divine crystals to build a huge isolation barrier, sealing off the Moon-Slaughter Demon Cave and completely controlling the dark yin energy that was constantly leaking out.
Isolated.”
"Due to the huge consumption of that barrier, at least a dozen emperors must be re-instilled with profound energy every three years to maintain it. Therefore, the ancestors of the Sea Palace moved the entire sect to the South China Sea and changed its name to the 'Supreme Sea'
temple'."
"……I see."
Due to his hatred towards the Mighty Heavenly Sword Domain and the despicable Sun Moon Divine Palace, Yun Che had no good impression of the Four Holy Lands, and even felt that they were all filthy places. However, Zi Ji's description of the Supreme Sea Palace made him...
He was in awe.
Compared to the Mighty Heavenly Sword Domain and the Sun and Moon Palace, this Supreme Sea Palace truly lives up to its name as a "Holy Land".
Thinking back to the Ji Qianrou from the Supreme Ocean Palace, although she was evil, she acted very decently in general. She spoke for him, a person he had never met before, in the Seven Kingdoms Ranking Tournament, and she mocked the Divine Phoenix Crown Prince Feng Xi.
Ming, because of a small favor, took action against Ye Xinghan on the Primordial Ark, which can be said to have saved his and Feng Xue'er's lives.
"Senior Zi just said that it takes five hundred years to enter that place. The Netherworld Udumbara Flower discovered thirteen hundred years ago was also found there... Could it be that the barrier deliberately left an accessible place?
?" Yun Che asked.
"This is exactly what I want to talk about." Zi Ji smiled faintly. Since he had already told the truth, there was no big concern: "The ancestors of Haidian had guessed that the dark energy came from the Moon-Slaughter Demon Lord.
body, and no matter how powerful the mysterious beast is, it will eventually die. So, seal the Moon-Slaughter Devil's Cave, and when the Moon-Slaughter Demon Lord dies, the dark Yin Qi will naturally dissipate, and the mission of guarding will be completed. The Supreme Sea
The palace can also be separated from the South China Sea."
"In order to make it easier to confirm whether the Moon-Slaughter Demon Lord is dead, the ancestors of Haidian left a gap in the barrier, but it was restricted to five hundred years before it could be opened once. In order to prevent a large amount of Yin Qi from leaking out after opening, it was also restricted.
Time to activate: only one hundred breaths! From then on, every five hundred years, the Supreme Sea Palace will send the least qualified disciples in the sect to enter it to confirm the life and death of the Moon-Slaughter Demon Lord. Since 6,500 years ago,
At the beginning, all the disciples who entered came out alive, which means that at that time, the Moon-Slaughter Demon Lord was already dead."
"The Moon-Slaughter Demon Lord is dead, but the Supreme Sea Palace is still guarding... In other words, although the Moon-Slaughter Demon Lord is dead, the dark Yin Qi is still spreading... Doesn't the dark Yin Qi come from the Moon-Slaughter Demon Lord?" Yun
Che frowned.
"That's right." Zi Ji nodded heavily: "If the Moon-Slaughter Demon Lord escapes from the Moon-Slaughter Demon Cave, he will only be a mysterious beast in the Tyrannical Profound Realm, which is not scary at all. What is really scary is the endless supply of beasts that come from nowhere.
The Yin Qi. The Supreme Sea Palace has to continue to guard there and still maintain the barrier every three years. As of today, it has been a full ten thousand years."
"Thousands of years after it was confirmed that the Moon-Slaughter Demon Lord was dead, the Supreme Sea Palace would still let a disciple with the least qualifications enter every five hundred years to prevent accidents from happening. In the end, all these disciples came out alive.
It was thus completely confirmed that the Moon-Slaughter Demon Lord had indeed perished, and the number of entries was becoming less and less. Those who entered were no longer the least qualified disciples. Some elders and even the Emperor of the Sea would also enter together to explore the true realm.
, but the Yin Qi in it is too strong, even if they are extremely powerful, they can only stay for a few dozen breaths at most before they will come out immediately and seal the barrier."
"As for the Netherworld Udumbara Flower that you are paying attention to... it was thirteen hundred years ago, when the barrier reached five hundred years and could be opened, several new elders who had never entered it entered together out of curiosity.
, when I quickly reached the end, I suddenly heard the eerie sound of ghosts crying."
"Ghosts cry...that's right!" Yun Che was shocked. Although he had never seen the Netherworld Udumbara Flower, when his master told him about the Netherworld Udumbara Flower, he said that it would make sounds like evil ghosts crying and laughing.
"Haha, following the sound of ghost cries, they saw a monster flower about one foot tall. Its stems and leaves were purple and black, but the flower in full bloom was an extremely coquettish bright purple, and the petals were surrounded by pale flowers that seemed to come from the underworld.
The purple mist danced without wind, making a terrifying sound like a devil crying and laughing."
"According to the accounts of the Sea Palace elders, when they saw the purple demonic flower, they instantly felt like their souls were being pulled out of their bodies... They were alert and fled away as soon as possible and sealed it again.
Barrier. But then, with the power of the emperor, they all fell seriously ill, and it took several months for them to fully recover. After checking it later, they found out that it was the legendary extremely evil demon flower...the Netherworld Udumbara flower."
"Three hundred years have passed since then, and no one has entered the Moon-Slaughter Demon Cave again."
Yun Che's expression became slightly excited, because Zi Ji's description of the Netherworld Udumbara Flower was exactly the same as what his master told him when he was in Cangyun Continent!
"Yes, that must be the Netherworld Udumbara Flower!" Yun Che nodded and said: "The Netherworld Udumbara Flower grows in places with extremely heavy Yin Qi. The Yin Qi there is extremely heavy, so of course it is extremely suitable for the growth of Netherworld Udumbara Flower. Moreover,
Because it is isolated by the barrier, the Yin Qi there will not dissipate, but will only become stronger and stronger, so the Netherworld Udumbara flower from 1,300 years ago should still exist, and perhaps there will be more than one."
Zi Ji shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Having said that, I just said that the Netherworld Udumbara flower blooms once every twenty-four years and will wither in three days, while the Moon-Slaughter Demon Cave can only be entered once in five hundred years, and the maximum stay is a hundred breaths.
When you encounter the possibility of blooming in a hundred breaths... it's like searching for a needle in the sea."
"Then I will always give it a try. After all, this is the only news I have got so far about the Netherworld Udumbara Flower." Yun Che said without hesitation: "And... my luck has always been good! What if it happens just right?
It’s blooming!”
Zi Ji shook his head again: "Several emperors and elders of the Supreme Ocean Palace almost had their souls stolen just by seeing the Netherworld Udumbara Flower. The consequences of getting close and touching it are even more disastrous. Even if it happens to bloom when you enter, how can you pick it?
"
"Well... this junior has his own way." Yun Che said quite firmly. The reason for his determination was naturally the Sky Poison Pearl.
Yun Che grabbed ten Overlord Pills from the Sky Poison Pearl, placed them in front of Zi Ji, and said sincerely: "Thank you, Senior Zi, for telling me in detail. This matter is extremely important to this junior. According to the agreement, these ten pills will
Sell it to your Chamber of Commerce for the price of twenty kilograms of Purple Veined Divine Crystal. At that time, the number of pills entrusted to your Chamber of Commerce for auction will also be reduced to twenty, and there will never be one more."
Zi Ji put away the ten Overlord Pills and took a deep look at Yun Che. He knew that with this young man's wisdom and the city's government, he must have noticed something from what he just said. He didn't say anything, and with a flick of his palm
Turning over, the mysterious formation suddenly appeared, and he pushed a dark purple space ring in front of Yun Che: "Inside this is twenty kilograms of purple veined divine crystals."
Yun Che picked up the amethyst ring, quickly swiped it, and received the Sky Poison Pearl. Then he looked at Zi Ji and smiled.
Twenty kilograms of purple-veined divine crystal...it's a divine crystal! I got it just like that...it seems so easy!!
"Yun Che, after you deal with the Divine Phoenix Sect, are you going to visit the Supreme Sea Palace?" Zi Ji asked, his eyes full of meaning.
"Indeed." Yun Che nodded: "This junior also knows the approximate location of the Supreme Sea Palace."
"Actually, you don't need to be in such a hurry." Zi Ji said with a faint smile: "In five months, the Supreme Sea Palace will hold a 'Devil Sword Conference', and you happen to be invited. Related
The invitation letter will also be handed over to you within two months."
"Oh? Demonic Sword Conference? What is that?" Yun Che said in surprise: "And why did you invite me?"
"Haha, it is not convenient for me to disclose this matter without permission. But then, you can ask the person who sent you the invitation letter, and he may be able to answer your questions."
"Oh..." Yun Che nodded slightly, full of doubts, but did not ask further: "In that case, this junior will not take the initiative to visit, and just wait for the news from the Supreme Sea Palace."
Up to now, although there is still no news about Chu Yuechan, all other goals of coming here have been achieved, and he has also received surprises about the "Netherworld Udumbara Flower" and doubts about the "Demon Sword Conference". Yun Che stood up and
He bowed his hands to Zi Ji and said: "This junior has been harassing Senior Zi for a long time. It's time to say goodbye... May I ask my father-in-law Xia Hongyi... is he in the Chamber of Commerce now?"
"Haha..." Zi Ji seemed to have expected that he would ask Xia Hongyi. He smiled faintly, flicked his fingers, and a yellow teleportation formation appeared silently two feet away from him: "He is on the first floor of the Chamber of Commerce.
, has been waiting for you for a while. You can see him after you go in."
"Thank you, Senior Zi." Yun Che nodded slightly gratefully, then gave a smile to the three girls beside him, turned around and walked into the profound formation.
There was a flash of yellow light, and Xuan Zhen disappeared there with Yun Che's figure.
Zi Ji was stunned for a while, then slowly sat down, with a very complicated expression on his face. After a while, he stretched out his arm and carefully picked up an Overlord Pill, his eyes filled with deep emotion again.
In amazement, after carefully observing it for a while, he muttered to himself: "It is really shocking that such a shocking treasure pill can be obtained so easily... and it seems that there is no name for it."
"This elixir is divided into six strands, and each strand has a different aura and different strength. It can make the overlord and help the emperor without any dangers. It can be called the elixir of the emperor of the world. If not, let's call it..."
