Ji Tianxing knew very well that the palace master had high hopes for him by telling him the secrets of the Yaoguang Goddess and the Canghai Divine Pearl.
However, it is too difficult to aimlessly search for the Canghai Divine Pearl.
It’s simply an impossible task!
The palace master said in a solemn tone: "Ji Tianxing, no matter how difficult this task is, you must complete it!
Yunyao only fused the seventh soul of the goddess. Although her power increased dramatically, her life span was only five years.
After five years, if she cannot find another soul to continue her life, the power of the remaining soul will be unbalanced, causing her body and soul to be destroyed."
When Ji Tianxing suddenly heard the news, he felt as if he had been struck by thunder, and asked in disbelief: "How could this happen? Isn't Yaoyao already safe?"
Why does this happen? Why is she always in trouble and ill-fated?"
The master of the palace looked at him with cold eyes and said in a deep voice: "If she was just an ordinary mortal, she would naturally die in peace and live a peaceful and safe life.
But she is not! Her destiny is destined to be extraordinary in this life!
If you want to become a strong martial artist and wake up and be reborn as an ancient goddess, how can it be so easy?"
Ji Tianxing was speechless and could only remain silent.
He could not deny that the fact was just as the Palace Master said.
If you want to inherit the legacy of the ancient goddess, how can it be so smooth sailing?
Just like himself, in order to inherit the legacy of the Sword God, he had to go through countless dangers and hardships of life and death.
At this time, the Palace Master continued: "Ji Tianxing, only you and I know about the Canghai Divine Pearl.
I will work with you to find the Canghai Divine Pearl. As for the reason why I want to help Goddess Yaoguang be reborn, you will understand it in the future."
After hearing what he said, Ji Tianxing felt much more at ease. He nodded and said, "Master, I understand. Please give me your instructions."
The master of the palace said seriously: "The Canghai Divine Pearl is a divine object, so naturally it will not appear in ordinary areas.
I have searched the Tianxuan Continent several times, but found nothing.
There are only two forbidden areas, and I haven't had time to explore them yet.
I am about to leave Tianxuan Continent, so you need to complete this matter.
Those two forbidden places, namely Falling God Cliff and Sun Moon Furnace, are among the most dangerous places in the world.
I have information about those two forbidden areas here, you have to check and figure it out carefully, and then go explore when you are confident."
After saying that, a golden light lit up in his palm, and a jade slip appeared.
With a wave of his hand, he sent the jade slip to Ji Tianxing.
Ji Tianxing stretched out his hand to take the jade slip, frowned slightly, and thought to himself: "The Sun and Moon Furnace? Is it the Sun and Moon Furnace where I forged the Broken Sword in Guixu of the East China Sea?"
Just as he was thinking secretly, the Palace Master said in a low tone: "After I leave, you must practice hard, quickly improve your strength, and strive to complete the mission as soon as possible.
Your current strength is not enough to enter those two forbidden areas.
You come with me, I will take you somewhere."
After saying that, the Palace Master stood up and left the main hall, passed through the secret door in the corner of the main hall, and entered the depths of the imperial palace.
Ji Tianxing followed closely behind him and walked along the dark passage for half a quarter of an hour before entering a dimly lit secret room.
When he stepped through the door of the secret room, he felt like he had passed through a layer of invisible blisters, and his whole body was a little distorted.
The secret room was filled with an invisible mysterious power, which made him feel a little weird and awkward.
The palace master stopped and waved his hand, creating a golden glare.
Suddenly, more than a dozen gemstone lamps lit up on the walls around the secret room.
The colorful light illuminated the entire secret room.
Only then did Ji Tianxing see the appearance of the secret room. It was only ten feet in diameter and the furnishings were very simple.
The surrounding walls and the ground underfoot are all paved with unknown black stone slabs, which are engraved with ancient mysterious patterns and exude invisible power fluctuations.
In the entire secret room, there was only a futon made of dark gold jade in the middle, and nothing else.
The master of the palace turned to look at him and said in a solemn tone: "I will be leaving soon, so you can rest assured and practice here in seclusion.
This secret room is the core of the imperial palace. It has been left over from ancient times to this day and is also a treasured place for the masters of the palace to practice in seclusion.
The time here is different from the outside world, and the time flow speed is ten times that of the outside world.
You have been cultivating here for ten days, and only one day has passed outside.
However, this secret room can only be used for you to retreat for a hundred days, and your strength will be exhausted and it will take several years to recover."
Ji Tianxing suddenly showed a look of surprise and said in disbelief: "Then I have been in seclusion here for a hundred days, and only ten days have passed outside?
How can this secret room have such a magical effect? Can it change the flow of time?!"
The master of the palace nodded, gave him a few more instructions, then turned and left the secret room.
With a muffled sound of "bang", the stone door of the secret room closed.
The secret room became quiet, and only Ji Tianxing was left alone.
He stood in the secret room in a daze, looking around in disbelief, looking at the formation patterns on the walls and the ground.
There is no doubt that it is these ancient and gray-white formation patterns that make the time in the secret room completely different from the outside world.
He stared at the criss-crossing, zigzag formation lines and carefully observed them for a while. Suddenly, his body shook and his eyes burst into intense light.
"Where have I seen these weird formation patterns?"
He was a little confused, frowned in confusion, and racked his brains to remember.
Although he was very sure that it was his first time to come to the secret room of the Imperial Palace, and it was also his first time to see the great formation in the secret room.
But for some reason, these formation patterns made him feel familiar, even inexplicably familiar.
He thought for a while and then suddenly remembered.
"I remembered! It's the Tomb of the Sword God!"
Thinking of this, he quickly sat cross-legged on the futon made of spiritual jade, and his soul entered the tomb of the Sword God.
"Whoosh!"
The golden Soul Sword turned into a translucent golden villain, exactly what he looked like.
His soul flew across the gloomy and cold wasteland, and soon reached the edge, entering the blank area in the gray mist.
The blank area with a radius of more than ten miles and the gray-white ground were covered with lines of mysterious formations.
Ji Tianxing confirmed his guess after careful observation and comparison.
"That's right! The mysterious formation in the Sword God's Tomb is very similar to the mysterious formation in the palace master's secret room!"
This discovery cheered him up and he immediately fell into deep thought.
"The mysterious formation in the master's secret room can change the flow of time.
The formation in the Tomb of the Sword God is very similar to that formation. Could it also have the effect of changing time?
After careful comparison, the formation in the Sword God's Tomb seems to be even more advanced and countless times more profound than the formation in the Palace Master's secret room.
So, this mysterious formation in the Tomb of the Sword God can not only change the flow of time, but also has other effects?"
