The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!-Chapter 794: Heavenly Candle Peak
Amidst the mist, the gigantic fox spoke with an indifferent tone.
But the words it uttered were shocking to Li Muyang.
Yu Chan was actually carrying such great expectations from the Ghost Moon Fox?
This deity from the Netherworld was entirely different from the other spirits there.
It sought the continuation of its lineage, but chose a mode utterly against the other spirits.
Abandoning violent plundering, it opted to assimilate into the Human World...
Maybe it had long understood that the power of the Netherworld could not contend with that of the Mortal World?
Li Muyang found himself momentarily lost for words, not knowing what to say, before he eventually spoke slowly.
"...So the group of foxes outside despise you to the bone? Because you didn’t exert yourself in the great war ten thousand years ago?"
The massive fox replied indifferently and casually, "That group of foxes belongs to the lineage of a friend of mine."
"I saved them, but in doing so, I also essentially imprisoned them."
"They can only stay in this narrow domain, unable to go outside."
"I did not intend to impose my will upon them, but that friend asked me to protect his kindred with his dying wish, and I couldn’t refuse."
The Ghost Moon Fox narrated the general cause indifferently, but as always, did not delve into details.
Li Muyang likewise tactfully refrained from inquiring further.
Soon, he arrived once more at the end of Lotus Road and saw the towering thousand-foot bronze mirror ahead.
The vast fox said, "This time, I will send you to the Misty Sea to help you search for Yu Chan amidst the mist."
"However, with my current power, I can only send you to the edge of the Misty Sea, you will have to make the rest of the journey on your own."
"But since you are a being from the Human World, those Immortal corpses at sea will not attack you."
"And you need not worry about hostility from the Netherworld. With this object, the creatures from the Netherworld will not be able to track your presence."
Above the huge fox, the mysterious and powerful Yin Life Book flew directly overhead, landing in Li Muyang’s hands.
Seeing this scene, Li Muyang was astonished.
"Ah? The Yin Life Book for me?"
This thing is a top-level sacred object from the Netherworld, entrusting such an important item to him?
Li Muyang was somewhat incredulous.
But he saw the huge fox looking at him coldly, saying, "With this object, you shall be kept safe... Go now, do not dawdle."
"Remember, the Yin Life Book can only protect you for sixty days."
"After sixty days, whether or not you have rescued Yu Chan, you must return. You cannot stay long on the Misty Sea, otherwise, you will lose your way!"
As the voice of the Ghost Moon Fox fell, the huge bronze mirror in front began to shine.
Li Muyang was sucked into the large bronze mirror and once again entered the chaotically swirling vortex of time and space.
The sensation of the world spinning lasted indeterminably long, but when Li Muyang finally opened his eyes and set his feet on solid ground again, he found himself standing on a beach.
In front of him, a faint mist rolled over the sea.
The fog was not too thick in the waters near the shore.
A few fishermen were rowing small boats about dozens of meters off the coast, casting nets and fishing, their figures faintly visible through the mist.
On the sandy beach beneath Li Muyang’s feet, numerous crabs wriggled through the sand, the salty sea breeze rushing toward him... If not for the surging mist upon the sea, this scene wouldn’t be much different from the ocean of his past life memories.
After a brief contemplation, Li Muyang summoned the Yin Life Book.
The next second, the rustling sound of flipping pages resonated as the Yin Life Book above his head swiftly turned its pages, finally stopping on an illustration of a cute and lovely young girl.
The girl under the moon laughed sweetly, yet behind her, two blood-red fox eyes shone from the shadows.
The daughter of the fox—Yu Chan.
As the Yin Life Book turned to the page of Yu Chan, a beam of light was released from the page, pointing forward.
Li Muyang soared into the sky, flying straight into the treacherous and dangerous Misty Sea that had swallowed an unknown number of cultivators.
But this time, Li Muyang was not alone; he was accompanied by the innate magic artifact of The Peaceful Realms, the "Yin Life Book."
The light emitted by the Yin Life Book dispelled the mist ahead, and wherever Li Muyang went, a clearing with a radius of thirty feet appeared over the Misty Sea.
Moreover, the light released by the Yin Life Book guided Li Muyang’s direction.
In this way, Li Muyang flew over the sea surface, traveling further and further into the Misty Sea.
From time to time, he could see bizarre huge shadows swimming in the waters beneath his feet.
Those terrifying shadows, thousands of feet tall like mountains, caused fish and shrimp to flee wherever they went.
The sight of such enormous creatures sweeping through the sea was both awe-inspiring and frightening.
But to the fish and shrimp in the water, as well as to Li Muyang flying close to the sea’s surface, these vast shadows moving underwater appeared indifferent, showing no intention to attack.
Li Muyang understood in his heart that these ceaselessly roaming figures in the water were once ancient immortals who had perished.
After their deaths, they transformed into walking corpses, searching for traces of Netherworld creatures in this sea region.
Li Muyang had only flown into the Misty Sea for half an hour and had already seen four gigantic shadows swiftly passing through the water.
With such a frequent appearance, it’s no wonder the Netherworld Saint Spirit had been trapped in the Misty Sea for ten thousand years.
After flying over the sea for another half an hour, Li Muyang saw a lonely island appearing on the sea.
Surprisingly, there was no mist above this island, and the sun’s rays fell unobstructed upon it.
The only thing was the island was not large, and it was barren except for some water birds flying around.
Through the mist, Li Muyang continued forward.
Following the guidance of the Yin Life Book, he had a clear goal and flew farther and farther over the Misty Sea.
Along the way, he saw many islands, each with sunlight shining overhead, unobscured by fog.
The mist floating on the sea’s surface seemed unable to reach the land.
On one of the larger islands, Li Muyang even found traces of living people.
Some people wearing clothing from ten thousand years ago lived on the vast island, building houses and ridges, with clear roads even between the mountains and forests.
As Li Muyang skimmed over the island, the living people below excitedly knelt and worshiped, regarding Li Muyang as a descended immortal.
But Li Muyang did not stop; his one and only goal was to rescue Yu Chan.
However, as Li Muyang flew for longer and longer, he had been in the air for a full three days and nights over the Misty Sea, yet he had still not caught sight of Yu Chan.
The vast and boundless Misty Sea seemed to have no end.
Li Muyang would stop to adjust his breath and restore his mana every two or three hours of flight.
In this manner, stopping and going, he had been flying over the Misty Sea for a total of seventeen days, until Li Muyang finally arrived in front of a colossal mountain peak.
The towering mountain, like a pillar supporting the sky, spanned across the sea.
Its near-vertical surface was so steep that not even monkeys could climb it.
Standing a hundred thousand feet tall, it was high enough to overlook all the other mountain peaks on this planet.
Seeing this enormous and mysterious mountain, a chill went down Li Muyang’s spine.
He had once come to this place with Little Wild Grass in the "Lethal Wild Grass."
—The ancient forbidden territory of immortals, the divine palace of the Southern Pillar God, the Evil Granny of the Heavenly Candle Peak!
