When second-generation rich kid Chu Ming's family fortunes declined and he fell into poverty, he stumbled upon an ancient martial arts system.
The system's mission: To promote ancient...
Wu Xi entered Chu Ming's room and found that he looked particularly happy.
It was a happiness that came from the heart, as if the Five Finger Mountain pressing down on me was kicked away, and my whole body and mind were released.
"Is there any good news? Why are you so happy?"
Wu Xi asked in surprise.
In Wu Xi's impression, Chu Ming always had a stern face and carried the aura of a superior. Even with a smile on his face, he gave people a feeling that no strangers were allowed near.
But the feeling today is obviously different. Today's Chu Ming is like a spring breeze, making people feel relaxed and happy.
Chu Ming smiled and said, "Since you asked, I actually have good news to tell you."
As he spoke, Chu Ming took Wu Xi's hand and held her in his arms.
Wu Xi was startled, and her pretty face immediately turned red with a hint of shyness on her face.
"I'll take you somewhere. Close your eyes and we'll be there soon."
Hearing Chu Ming's gentle voice, Wu Xi nodded slightly, then closed her eyes obediently.
Chu Ming kissed Wu Xi lightly on the forehead, and then energy surged around him, and a strong energy ripple suddenly spread around him.
In an instant, the void collapsed, and Chu Ming, holding Wu Xi, disappeared in the room.
At the same time, in the East China Sea, Penglai Island.
The sky is clear and the air is fresh, the breeze is gentle, rich spiritual energy is floating everywhere, and a large amount of fairy mist covers the entire island. Any corner that is exposed is an extremely beautiful scenery.
Last time, Chu Ming achieved a breakthrough in his practice in the middle of the Three Immortals Island and absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy, which greatly weakened the spiritual energy of the Three Immortals Island.
However, there are spiritual roots and veins on the Three Immortals Island. After such a long time, the degree of recovery of spiritual energy has reached its peak again, and the spiritual energy absorbed by Chu Ming has been restored.
On this day, a burst of energy fluctuations suddenly came from the sky above Penglai Fairy Island. The void seemed to collapse abruptly, and two figures appeared out of thin air in the sky.
Chu Ming hugged Wu Xi and moved directly from the defensive fortress of the Golden Grassland to the Penglai Fairy Island in the East China Sea of the Earth.
Wu Xi stayed obediently in Chu Ming's arms. Chu Ming didn't let her open her eyes, so she kept her eyes closed.
But just a moment ago, she felt an indescribable dizziness in her mind, and there seemed to be an extremely terrifying force around her that wanted to tear her apart.
However, Wu Xi could feel a gentle energy emanating from Chu Ming, which completely wrapped her body and prevented the invasion of external energy.
In short, no matter where she went, as long as Chu Ming was by her side, she would feel infinitely safe.
"Okay, open your eyes!"
Chu Ming slowly let go of Wu Xi in his arms and spoke softly.
Wu Xi's expression moved and she slowly opened her eyes. What came into her sight was a vast island shrouded in clouds and mist.
Wu Xi took a deep breath and was shocked.
The concentration of spiritual energy here is so high that it is even higher than that of the Holy Beast Continent, which has the highest spiritual energy in the Red Wilderness Continent.
Moreover, the scenery here is so beautiful.
The blue sky, the blue sea, the white misty mountains, and an island placed in the middle of the world's great rivers give people a sense of grandeur and beauty, which is refreshing.
"Where is this?"
Wu Xi was shocked and asked in a surprised voice.
Chu Ming smiled and replied, "This is Penglai Island, the legendary Penglai Fairy Island. The mountain in the distance hidden behind the white clouds is Penglai Mountain."
"Penglai Fairy Island!"
Wu Xi murmured, her bright eyes full of surprise, as if she had never imagined that there was such a place in the world.
Chu Ming nodded and said, "Yes, this is Penglai Fairy Island. I saw a palace on Penglai Mountain before. I'll take you in to have a look."
The last time Chu Ming came here, he had already discovered the huge building complex on Penglai Mountain, but time was tight and Chu Ming did not have time to check it out.
Now that I have time, I naturally have to investigate.
Chu Ming knew that Wu Xi’s practice had reached a bottleneck. Bringing her here might help him make a breakthrough with the help of the rich spiritual energy here.
Wu Xi nodded slightly, and then the two of them floated down towards the Penglai Fairy Island hand in hand.
"How did you find this place? It's absolutely beautiful!"
As soon as she entered Penglai Fairy Island, Wu Xi was conquered by the beautiful scenery of the island.
Her bright eyes were as bright as stars, and wherever she looked, she saw an indescribably beautiful picture.
Chu Ming said seriously: "I am the ancestor of ancient martial arts. Whether it is the Earth or the Red Desolate Continent, there is no place I cannot go."
"Go ahead and brag. There's no tax on bragging anyway."
Wu Xi complained softly and followed Chu Ming to the outside of a huge palace.
What shocked the two was that everywhere they looked were ruins. Except for the palace in front of them, all the buildings had been destroyed.
"This is?"
Chu Ming was also shocked and felt a little unbelievable.
The surrounding mountains are covered with thick sword marks. Even though the years of weapons have passed, one can still feel the sharp sword intent from those sharp sword marks.
In addition to the sword marks, there are also many huge palm prints not far away.
The palm print was extremely familiar, and Chu Ming's eyes widened immediately.
"Tathagata Palm!"
Chu Ming was extremely familiar with the Tathagata Palm. When he saw the huge palm print on the mountain in front of him, he recognized it at a glance as the palm print left after the Tathagata Palm attack.
As far as the eye can see, except for this palace, everything has turned into broken walls and ruins, making this place a ruin.
Chu Ming closed his eyes slightly, golden light flashed between his eyebrows, and his powerful mental power spread in all directions like a tide.
However, what shocked Chu Ming was that his mental power, which had always been extremely powerful, was severely restricted here. It seemed that countless residual thoughts were interfering with Chu Ming's consciousness.
Chu Ming immediately snorted in his heart, and there seemed to be a thunderclap in his divine nature, causing the golden spiritual energy to explode, sweeping across the entire Penglai Fairy Island in an instant like a bomb.
At this moment, Chu Ming seemed to hear countless dead souls crying, and countless desolate and sad voices shouting. The entire ruins were filled with a fighting spirit that could break through the sky.
Chu Ming's face turned pale, and he quickly withdrew his mental power.
He didn't know what had happened here, but he could feel that countless extraordinary people had died in battle on this mountain.
"Could it be that there are other secrets hidden on Earth?"
Chu Ming frowned slightly, feeling that things were becoming complicated.
Wu Xi noticed that Chu Ming's expression was a little off, and immediately asked with concern: "Chu Ming, what's wrong with you?"
Chu Ming's thoughts were interrupted by Wu Xi's voice. He took a deep breath and responded, "Nothing. Seeing the dilapidated scene here reminded me of something."
As he spoke, Chu Ming waved at Wu Xi and said, "Come on, I'll take you into this palace to practice. The spiritual energy density here is the highest. Practicing here will definitely help you soar to the sky."
Wu Xi nodded slightly. She could also see the extraordinaryness of this palace.
All the buildings have turned into ruins, why is this palace still there?
