Chapter 624 Above the Nine Heavens

A tiny crack in space quietly appeared. In the crack, one could vaguely see a towering palace above the nine heavens, surrounded by thunder and lightning and clouds and mist, which exuded a heart-pounding majesty and power.

At the top of the palace, a gray figure was floating cross-legged in the air.

Luo Li and Di Xuanming's hearts suddenly tightened, as if their throats were being strangled by an invisible force.

She widened her eyes, only to see the space crack slowly being torn open by an invisible hand, and the scene within the crack became clearer and clearer—amidst the roar of thunder, lightning danced wildly like silver snakes, each one carrying a breath of destruction.

In the depths where chaos and light intertwine, the palace stands tall, with dragons and phoenixes carved on it. Golden light and gray mist intertwine and entwine, revealing an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.

The gray figure at the top of the palace was dressed in an intricate robe, the sleeves of his clothes swaying gently in the wind, but it did not diminish his calm and steady aura in the slightest.

His eyes opened, like two bottomless cold pools, releasing a bone-chilling light, as if directly penetrating the cracks in space and meeting Luo Li's gaze across the air.

At that moment, time seemed to freeze. Luo Li felt an indescribable pressure enveloping her whole body, and even breathing became extremely difficult.

The air around them seemed to tremble, foreshadowing the coming storm.

The scene flashed by, but it was enough for Luo Li and Di Xuanming to see clearly.

The old man's figure flashed, and he snorted coldly, "That's him."

Luo Li came back to her senses and pursed her lips. This power was too strong...

The old man waved his hand and said, "I still have to go back to stabilize the spirit world. His hand cannot reach here yet, so you can rest assured."

"Please accept this jade pendant. I will contact you when the secret realm opens in three years."

The old man looked at Luo Li with respect, "Thank you, my friend, for helping us."

After saying this, his figure completely disappeared.

In Luo Li's palm lay the jade pendant, which was as smooth as jade, and a faint light flowed on it, as if it contained an ancient and mysterious power.

She held it tightly, feeling the warmth from her palm.

Di Xuanming stood aside, looking at Luo Li with deep eyes, which showed both approval and worry.

He said softly, "This jade pendant is both a token of trust and a responsibility. Ah Li, are you ready?"

Luo Li looked up, met his determined eyes, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. "No matter what the road ahead is, I will keep going."

Although her words were soft, they revealed an unquestionable determination.

Moreover, the old man's strength is unpredictable, and there must be something about the ancient Great Wilderness Lingwu clan in that secret realm.

Since this is the case, she has to go anyway. Cooperating with the spiritual world can also allow her to be one step ahead of others.

Di Xuanming sighed softly, leaned over and hugged the girl beside him, and whispered, "Okay, I'll go with you."

Luo Li hugged him back and nodded gently on his shoulder, "Yeah."

Ye Yuan left tactfully as he still had a lot of official business to attend to when he returned to the main city.

No matter what, he is now the lord of Jinglong Territory on the surface, and he can't really just be a hands-off boss.

The moonlight was as bright as water, and the two intertwined figures stretched out in the silver glow.

Di Xuanming's fingers gently ran through Luo Li's hair, his eyes full of tenderness and determination.

He whispered softly, as if afraid to disturb the tranquility of the night: "Ali, trust me. No matter how difficult the road ahead, I will always be your strongest support. What secrets are hidden deep in that secret realm? Let's uncover them together."

Luo Li looked up, her eyes sparkling with trust and expectation. She opened her red lips slightly, her voice soft but firm, "A Ming, with you by my side, I have nothing to fear."

"The secret of the ancient Lingwu clan of the Great Wilderness may be the starting point of our intertwined destinies, and this time, perhaps I can figure out something."

I still remember that the Di family and the ancient Lingwu clan of the Great Wilderness were allies back then.

Emperor Xuanming was stunned. "The Great Wilderness Spiritual Martial Ancient Clan?"

The next second, he sighed helplessly, "Is that really the case..."

Luo Li straightened up and smiled at the man in front of her who was more mature than before. "Do you have a lot of questions?"

Di Xuanming could never lie in front of her, so he nodded lightly, "Yeah."

Luo Li pulled him outside the hall, took his hand and walked to the steps to sit down, "Ask, I will answer you."

The moonlight fell on the ancient stone steps, casting a layer of silver light on the deep hall.

Luo Li sat side by side with Di Xuanming, her eyes gleaming with gentleness and determination.

"The ancient Lingwu clan of the Great Wilderness, an ancient and powerful existence," Luo Li's voice was soft but clear, like a clear spring in the mountains, flowing slowly.

As she spoke, she glanced sideways at Di Xuanming, chuckled, and tilted her head, "You should be familiar with this, right?"

As she spoke, she gently raised her hand, and her fingertips moved slightly. A wisp of spiritual energy that was invisible to the naked eye slowly condensed in her palm, and finally turned into a spiritual bead. A crystal clear lotus was spinning in the spiritual bead, gently floating between the two of them.

The lotus emitted a faint light, filling the surrounding air with a sense of sacredness and peace.

She moved her fingertips lightly, and the lotus slowly floated towards Di Xuanming's heart.

Di Xuanming just looked at her without moving, his eyes fixed on her right in front of him without blinking.

Luo Li raised an eyebrow, "Why don't you move? Aren't you afraid that this is some bad thing and will take your life?"

"Hmm..." Di Xuanming pretended to think for two seconds, then chuckled, "If you really want to kill me, why not just say no?"

Luo Li chuckled and squeezed the man's palm.

As Luo Li's words fell softly, the lotus suddenly grew brighter the moment it approached Di Xuanming's heart, transforming into circles of delicate ripples that gently touched the skin of his chest, bringing with it a surge of spiritual power.

A hint of surprise flashed across Di Xuanming's eyes, and then it was replaced by deep trust.

He closed his eyes and let the power penetrate into every cell of his body, as if even his soul was being gently soothed.

The space around them seemed to freeze, with only the faint light slowly flowing between the two of them, illuminating Luo Li's focused and gentle face, and Di Xuanming's relaxed and trusting expression.

At this moment, time seemed to have lost its meaning. Only two hearts remained, quietly approaching each other in the sacred light, interweaving a breathtaking picture.

After a moment, Di Xuanming opened his eyes and was somewhat speechless. "What is this?"

He could feel that the spirit pearl was now residing in his soul. The moment it entered his body, the speed at which his spirit veins absorbed spiritual power increased several times, and the speed at which it was converted into soul power within his soul was much faster.

This is undoubtedly a treasure that all spiritualists will flock to.

Luo Li said nonchalantly, "I gave Brother Wan Bai and the others a treasure from the ancient Great Wilderness Spiritual Martial Clan that I obtained in a secret realm."
