David nodded: “I promise, you must also return to Yunxian City as soon as possible. With only Long Zhan and Wan Qing, I’m afraid we can’t hold on. If Ning Zhi returns, he might even lead the Demon Dragon to attack Yunxian City.”
“Good!” Yunxi nodded.
David turned around and looked at the distant horizon.
It led to the northernmost point of the Fourteenth Heaven, to an unknown land called “Guixu,” a place where the Divine Palace might be located.
“Senior Moses, please wait a moment longer.”
In his heart he swore, “I will definitely find a way to free you.”
He took a deep breath, turned into a golden beam of light, and disappeared into the horizon.
Yunxi stood there, watching his back, and remained motionless for a long time.
Ming Li walked to his side and said quietly, “That’s indeed Mr. Chen’s personality; you can’t stop him.”
Yunxi didn’t speak, but just gripped the sword in his hand tighter.
“Let’s go too.” His voice was calm, but a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.
David is his greatest hope right now; he still relied on Chen to accompany him to Fifteenth Heaven.
“If he doesn’t return within a month I will invade the Divine Palace and destroy their gates.” Princess Yunxi’s anger overflowed.
Ming Li: “”
He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn’t say anything.
Forget it, this old woman has an even worse temper than David.
We can’t deal with them.
There was no teleportation array to the northernmost region, so David flew north for seven days and seven nights.
During the first three days, he could still see signs of human settlement: scattered small towns, isolated monk caves, and the occasional passing caravan.
He asked this to everyone he met, and without exception, they all shook their heads.
“That holy place? Never heard of it.”
“Those are all just ancient legends, who knows whether they are true or false.”
“Young man, have you been deceived? I have lived in the Fourteenth Heaven for eight thousand years and have never heard of any divine palace.”
By the fourth day, all signs of human settlement had disappeared.
The ground beneath our feet changed from a vast grassland to a barren frozen land, and then from a frozen land to an endless expanse of ice.
The temperature dropped so drastically that even his protective dragon aura felt cold, and his breath condensed into small ice crystals that flew to the ground.
On the fifth day, even the ice had disappeared.
Beneath his feet lay a white void, not ice, not snow, but a substance he had never seen before.
The white light was like solidified light; it feels unreal when you step on it, but you won’t fall.
There was only eerie silence all around, not even the sound of the wind could be heard, as if the entire world had been silenced.
The aurora in the sky changed from a brilliant greenish blue to an eerie pale white, like a dying flame, flickering silently overhead.
David didn’t know how far he had flown or where he was.
He was completely lost.
He could only rely on his intuition to continue flying further north.
On the sixth day, he encountered his first storm.
A strong wind blew soundlessly from the depths of the aurora, but it brought with it a chill that could freeze the soul.
As it shot past David’s invincible golden body, the golden scales that were tough enough to withstand a full attack from a first-order True God were instantly covered in fine frost. The frost spreads along the scales, producing an ear-splitting “gurgling” sound.
David’s heart pounded, and he activated his Golden Dragon Bloodline with all his strength. Golden dragon energy flared violently on his body, barely able to withstand the strong wind.
However, his spiritual energy consumption rate suddenly increased tenfold.
“This is the strong wind of Guixu…” David gritted his teeth and increased his flying speed.
He didn’t know how many more storms like this would come, or how long he could survive.
But he couldn’t stop, and he couldn’t back down either.
Day 7.
David had exhausted most of his spiritual power, and the protective dragon aura around him was dimmer than when he set out.
His lips were chapped, and his brows were covered in a thick layer of frost. Every breath felt like swallowing razor blades.
He almost gave up.
But at that moment, he suddenly felt something in front of him.
The aura was very faint, so faint that it was almost invisible, but the power contained within made his heart pound.
The aura felt alive.
David’s spirits rose, and he used his remaining strength to fly in that direction.
After flying for about two more hours, the scenery suddenly changed.
The vast expanse of white disappeared, replaced by a stretch of dark blue ice.
Countless giant ice pillars stood on the ice field, each tens of meters high, resembling a stone forest or a natural labyrinth.
