Chapter 104: The Spirit Dragon’s Grotto Heaven
“Ling Long’s song…?”
Ye Lingxuan echoed his words, her gaze following his towards the summit of Two Polarities Peak. She tilted her head, her voice laced with confusion. “Why can’t I hear anything?”
Wei ngrou glanced at Mu Zhi’an. “I can’t hear anything either.”
He held his breath, listening intently. Then he realized that the song wasn’t coming from the mountain. It was echoing directly in his mind.
“It’s a ntal ssage,” he said.
“A ntal ssage from the summit… to your mind…?” Ye Lingxuan frowned, her voice laced with disbelief. Even as a Foundation Establishnt cultivator, she knew that ntal ssages required proximity. Yet Mu Zhi’an was claiming to hear Ling Long’s song from here. It was strange.
He pondered for a mont, then said, “Ling Long has existed since the sect’s founding. Its power and understanding are beyond our comprehension. Perhaps it has a secret technique for long-distance communication.”
She considered his words, then nodded. He was right. Each breakthrough in cultivation brought about significant changes. It was possible that Ling Long possessed a secret technique for transmitting ssages across vast distances.
“Let’s go see,” he said, looking at Wei ngrou. “We’ll need your help again, ngrou.”
She nodded impassively. Her expression might have been neutral, but a flicker of curiosity shone in her eyes.
The flying sword soared through the air, carrying them towards the summit. Mu Zhi’an looked up, the wind whipping through his hair, the song echoing in his mind, beautiful yet mournful, like the siren’s call, alluring yet lonely.
They reached the summit, and Wei ngrou landed the sword gracefully. Ye Lingxuan stepped off the sword, her purple dress swirling around her, her gaze sweeping over the desolate landscape, a hint of nostalgia in her eyes. Her father had brought her here once, seven or eight years ago. She hadn’t expected to return as a disciple of the Two Polarities Sect.
I wonder how the sect master is doing. She sighed inwardly. Her childhood mories were fading, but she still rembered eting the Empress that year. While the Empress’s face was blurred by ti, her aura, it remained vivid in her mind, a vision of unparalleled beauty.
A woman like her, ti wouldn’t leave any marks on her.
Mu Zhi’an had asked how she had breached the formations. But the truth was, she hadn’t needed to. The ring she wore, it was a gift from the Empress, given to her during that visit.
If I beco an inner disciple, I wonder if I’ll have a chance to see her again. She felt a flicker of childlike anticipation.
“Aaaa~”
The beautiful song echoed from the depths of the cliff. Mu Zhi’an’s spirits lifted, and he looked down. Ling Long was truly here! Bringing Ye Lingxuan had been the right decision. This was Two Polarities Peak. No disciples would co here. It was the perfect place to et the dragon.
He waited, listening to the song, which seed to be calling to them. He had a feeling…
A cultivator’s intuition was rarely wrong.
“Let’s go down,” Wei ngrou said, her voice calm.
She summoned the flying sword, and they descended into the depths of the cliff. They flew through the mist, the song growing louder, and finally, they reached the bottom.
An ancient gate stood before them, its surface carved with unfamiliar symbols. The song was coming from within.
“Is this a Celestial Realm…?” Mu Zhi’an asked.
It was said that Nascent Soul cultivators could create their own pocket dinsions with their spiritual energy. These realms, known as Celestial Realms, might appear small from the outside, like a simple cave, but within, they held vast and wondrous landscapes. The palace they were staying in was a Celestial Realm created by a sect elder.
Wei ngrou nodded, confirming his suspicion.
Should we go in…? He hesitated.
Ye Lingxuan looked up, her eyes sparkling, her voice soft. “Sothing in that realm is calling to …”
He looked at her, surprised.
Sothing is calling to you…? So your cheat has activated as well…? What about mine…?
He pondered for a mont, then said, “Ling Long called us here. Let’s go in.”
“If sothing is resonating with you, Lingxuan, perhaps you’ll find so opportunity.”
She looked at him, a hint of guilt in her eyes. “I’m sorry… I was supposed to be the one helping you… but now…”
He chuckled, shaking her head. “Don’t say that, Lingxuan.”
He had dropped the “sister” from her na, but she didn’t seem to notice.
“Anything for you, Lingxuan,” he said softly, his gaze eting hers.
She looked at him, his handso face illuminated by the faint light, his smile gentle, and she nodded, her voice a soft murmur.
“Thank you.”
Her heart, usually so cold and guarded, seed to lt a little. Her wariness towards him, it had faded.
He smiled, his heart easing, then he discreetly opened his personal interface. The word “Supporting Role” was gradually being covered by pink hearts, and now, faintly, he saw two new words erging.
They were blurry, but he was certain they weren’t “Supporting Role.”
It seems my initial judgnt was correct. Weakening the protagonist’s position, it benefits . So Lingxuan is also a protagonist. He stared at the interface, trying to decipher the words, but he couldn’t. He would find out eventually.
And even if this hadn’t happened, he would have helped her. She was a smart and capable sister. Helping his sister, it was an investnt in his own future, wasn’t it?
He smiled, taking her hand, ignoring Wei ngrou’s disgusted gaze, and pushed open the gate.
…
At that mont, disciples across the nine peaks noticed sothing strange. Ling Long’s song wasn’t coming from Two Polarities Peak. It was echoing from every peak.
So had dared to venture down the cliffs, and at the bottom of each cliff, they had discovered a Celestial Realm. The realms beneath the nine peaks, they were connected!
It was undoubtedly Ling Long’s realm, and its song was calling to them. Their eyes lit up with hope and anticipation.
Ye Yu was particularly excited, staring towards the cliff. The old man within him had told him about the realm, about the imnse opportunity that awaited them.
