Sword intent soared to the sky, the sword light flashed and disappeared!
"Aow..."
Only a scream was heard from inside the city, followed by a faint smell of blood wafting out.
"Boss is indeed the boss, one word, fast!" Xuan Mingzi exclaimed.
"..."
"Cough cough!"
Li Beifei solved that ancient celestial creature in just two breaths after entering the city with his sword, which was naturally fast, but why did it sound strange coming from Xuan Mingzi's mouth?
"What are you doing? Did I say something wrong?" Xuan Mingzi saw their strange expressions and thought he had said something wrong again, but after thinking for a while, he realized he hadn't.
Killing an ancient creature that could instantly kill Saint-level cultivators, if that's not fast, then what is?
"You guys leave first!"
Mu Qingyi said to Liu Yanran and the others.
"Yes, Mistress, be careful."
"Sect Master's wife, be careful!"
"Qingyi, we'll wait for you to come back!"
After they finished speaking, they transformed into a stream of light and left.
After they left, the others exchanged glances and then walked in together.
Seeing that the danger inside the city was temporarily lifted, the others hesitated for a while before rushing in, one after another.
...
After Li Beifei solved the ferocious beast, he stood there waiting for the others, but strangely, he found that after waiting for half an hour, no one came in.
"What's going on?" Li Beifei was puzzled. Just as he was about to send a voice transmission to the others, he discovered that his divine sense couldn't leave the city at all.
"A barrier?" Li Beifei looked towards the sky. The nine stars were still aligned, and even with his Heavenly Eye, he couldn't see any barrier.
"It's not a barrier, you are currently in another space-time!" At this time, Old Liu said from within Li Beifei's body.
"Another... space-time?" Li Beifei's heart trembled. He couldn't help but recall the time he comprehended the Thirty-Three Heavens Creation Immortal Technique, when his mind was also pulled into another space-time, witnessing the decline of the mortal realm.
Furthermore, when he saw this city before, he felt strange, an indescribable feeling in his heart.
"That's not right, this ferocious beast, hmm..." Li Beifei was about to say that he had seen this ferocious beast before entering the city, but in the next moment, he couldn't say anything, and even felt a chill down his spine.
Because the corpse of the ancient ferocious beast that he had killed with one sword was originally in front of him, but now it had disappeared without a trace, not even a trace of aura remained.
Not only that, he also discovered that the surrounding old and dilapidated buildings were becoming new at a speed visible to the naked eye. Looking behind him, he found that the knife marks and sword holes on the city walls had disappeared, and the claw marks of the ferocious beasts had also vanished.
This was simply a shocking and supernatural event, like seeing a ghost in a story.
"Hey, Old Liu, what's going on?"
Li Beifei asked Old Liu in his body, but Old Liu didn't answer him, as if he never existed.
"Old Liu, Old Liu!"
Li Beifei's expression changed slightly. He had lost contact with Old Liu, which was the first time this had happened.
Just then, a hand patted his shoulder, and Li Beifei was startled.
"Fellow Daoist, even if this is your first time in Heavenly Pool Holy City, you don't have to be like this, right? You scared me!"
The person who came was also startled by Li Beifei.
Li Beifei calmed his inner thoughts and found several young men and women beside him, each with immortal energy surrounding them. The men were handsome and unrestrained, and the women were stunningly beautiful.
Suddenly, his pupils shrank. He saw a slightly younger girl holding an egg in her arms. This egg exuded a strong true dragon aura. It was actually a true dragon egg.
In other words, the girl in front of him was carrying a supreme creature about to be born. What was the background of these people?
"Fellow Daoist, are you also invited to attend the Heavenly Pool Gathering?"
The person who patted Li Beifei's shoulder earlier asked.
"Heavenly Pool Gathering?"
Li Beifei was puzzled.
"No? Then you coincidentally obtained the invitation scattered by His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor and came here." That person said with great certainty.
"Uh... I did come here by chance." Li Beifei readily admitted. He didn't know why this was happening, so he had to be careful.
"Meeting is fate. We'll take you there, which will also help you arrange a better position." The man said with a smile, then looked at the others and asked, "Do you have any objections?"
"Sure." A man in armor said indifferently. Although his attitude was calm, Li Beifei could feel that he didn't look down on him.
"Bring him along, it'll be more lively with more people."
The girl holding the true dragon egg said happily.
The others had no objections.
"Then let's go!" The man politely gestured an invitation to Li Beifei.
Seeing that their attitude was friendly and not fake, Li Beifei nodded and followed them into the city.
At this time, the concentration of heaven and earth spiritual energy in Heavenly Pool Ancient City was no less than that of the Taixu Realm that Li Beifei had been to. From a distance outside the city, many immortal mountains could be seen hidden in the clouds. Cranes flew in flocks among the mountains. In the direction directly facing the city gate, a huge immortal mountain could be seen, towering into the clouds, with nine waterfalls like nine silver rivers falling from the clouds, the immortal energy ethereal.
Is this the scene of the Heavenly Realm?
For some reason, Li Beifei clenched his fists, feeling a sense of indignation in his heart, because he knew that later generations would never see such a beautiful Heavenly Realm. It was all destroyed by a group of mysterious invaders.
In the past, he didn't have any hatred for the invaders, but now, being in the scene and feeling the beauty of it, yet knowing that this beauty was destined to be destroyed in the future, his mood suddenly became uncomfortable.
However, Li Beifei concealed his emotions very well, and the others didn't notice anything unusual about him.
Li Beifei followed them on the avenue, with the buildings on both sides closed.
"The Heavenly Pool Gathering is a grand event held by the Lord of Heavenly Pool once every nine million years. At this time, everyone is out in the streets, and everyone in the city has gone to the Heavenly Pool Ascending Palace to participate in the grand event, so naturally there's no one around."
The man seemed to see Li Beifei's doubts and smiled to clear his confusion.
"Nine million years?" Li Beifei was stunned.
"Yes, yes, have you seen the nine suns in the sky?" The girl holding the true dragon egg was very enthusiastic towards Li Beifei, because frankly speaking, Li Beifei was very handsome, and the girl was in her early years of infatuation, so she was naturally more enthusiastic when she saw beautiful things. This is human nature.
Hearing this, Li Beifei nodded.
The girl continued, "Actually, there were originally ten suns, ten stars aligned. Guess where the other one went?"
"I guess it's under our feet." Li Beifei joked.
"You actually guessed it right!" The girl looked surprised, and the others also looked at Li Beifei in surprise. They also learned about this from their family elders. They didn't expect Li Beifei to guess it right away.
"I was just guessing." Li Beifei awkwardly touched his nose, not expecting that his random guess would come true.
But ten suns, how is it so similar to the folk tales of Heavenly Pool Ancient Star? Isn't that a false legend?
...
