After returning to the Crystal Palace, Mu Li and Mo Xi told everyone about their experience on the mysterious island.
The Mermaid Emperor said solemnly, "It seems the demons are well prepared this time. We must be fully prepared."
Mu Li nodded and said, "Father, I will work harder to cultivate and improve my strength."
Mo Xi also said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will always protect Ali."
The Mermaid Emperor nodded in satisfaction.
In the following days, Mu Li studied the purification spell day and night. Not only did she use it more skillfully, she also combined it with the mermaid song to create a new method suitable for the mermaids to practice. It was no longer just for healing and recovery, but also had the ability to purify magic power.
When the Mermaid King and Queen learned about this, they cried with joy and immediately summoned the talented mermaids in their tribe to learn new magic from Mu Li.
While Mu Li was immersed in her cultivation, a dark force quietly approached the Crystal Palace. This force was extremely hidden, bypassing many defensive formations.
One day, during a crucial moment of her cultivation, Mu Li's surrounding seawater suddenly turned icy cold. She was startled, sensing danger approaching.
At the same time, Mo Xi also felt something strange and quickly rushed to Mu Li's side.
A group of demons appeared, emitting a strong evil aura. The leading demon sneered, "Do you think you can stay safe hiding here?"
Undeterred, Mu Li sang her newly created technique combined with the mermaid's song. The song carried a powerful purifying force that rushed towards the demons.
Mo Xi brandished his weapon and rushed towards the enemy together with the mermaid warriors.
For a moment, light and darkness intertwined and collided with each other.
However, the demons brought with them a magical weapon that could counteract the power of purification, significantly diminishing the effectiveness of Mu Li's song. In this critical moment, Mu Li recalled a revelation from the mysterious island. She focused her mind, channeling all her spiritual energy into the mermaid's song. The combined power of her spirit and mind instantly unleashed a powerful wave of energy, repelling the demons.
At this moment, Mu Li suddenly felt a strange fluctuation.
"What's going on again?" Mu Li was confused.
Mo Xi heard the sound and asked, "Ali, what happened?"
Mu Li frowned and said, "I suddenly feel that the purification spell seems to have a deeper power waiting for me to explore."
As soon as the words fell, the star mirror began to flash.
Mo Xi said: "Maybe this star mirror can help you solve the mystery."
Mu Li closed her eyes, placed the Star Mirror in her palm, and concentrated on feeling it.
Gradually, she entered a mysterious space.
Within this space, an ancient voice echoed: "Child, you shoulder a great mission. This purification spell is an ancient divine art. Only those with justice and courage can fully master it."
Mu Li said firmly, "I am willing to take on this mission."
The ancient voice continued.
"To fully unleash the power of the purification spell, you need to find the Five Elements Spirit Pearls. However, they are hidden in different places, full of dangers and challenges. Whether you can encounter them depends on you!"
Mu Li opened her eyes and returned to reality.
She said to Mo Xi: "Brother Mo Xi, we are going to look for the Five Elements Spirit Pearl."
Mo Xi said without hesitation: "Okay, no matter what Ali wants to do, no matter how difficult it is, I will accompany you."
"Okay, thank you Brother Moxi!" Mu Li said happily.
After a brief preparation, the two embarked on a journey to find the Five Elements Spirit Pearls. According to the ancient voice's suggestion, the first Spirit Pearl, the Golden Spirit Pearl, might be located deep in the Sunset Mountains.
Along the way, they encountered many ferocious monsters. Mo Xi always stood in front of Mu Li, while Mu Li used her mermaid song to assist in the battle.
After finally reaching the depths of the Sunset Mountains, we found that the area was covered with thick fog and visibility was extremely low.
"Ali, be careful, I'll hold your hand." Mo Xi took the initiative to hold Mu Li's hand and carefully protected her by his side.
Suddenly, a hail of arrows came towards them.
It turned out that the mechanism guarding the Golden Spirit Orb had been triggered. Mo Xi swung his sword to block the arrows, while Mu Li carefully observed the surrounding environment, trying to find the location of the mechanism.
During a dodge, Mu Li accidentally fell into a dark hole. Mo Xi jumped down anxiously to find her, but found that there was a golden light shining in the dark hole, and the golden spirit bead was inside.
"Ali, look, the Golden Spirit Pearl!" Mo Xi reminded quietly.
"I saw it, Brother Moxi, look next to it!" Mu Li also reminded in a low voice.
It turns out that there is a giant spider spirit guarding the Golden Spirit Pearl.
"Don't be afraid, I'll go up first to attract its attention, and you take the opportunity to take the Golden Spirit Pearl." After Mo Xi said this, he rushed forward and started a fierce battle with the spider spirit.
Time passed minute by minute, and Mu Li still didn't find a suitable opportunity to get close to the Golden Spirit Pearl. Seeing Mo Xi gradually falling into a disadvantage, Mu Li became more and more anxious.
At this moment, Mo Xi was unable to dodge and was scratched on the arm by the spider spirit. Suddenly, a black gas spread from the wound!
"So that's it!" When Mu Li saw this scene, she immediately understood that a purification spell was needed, so she concentrated her energy, mobilized the spiritual power in her body, and exerted the power of purification to rush towards the spider spirit.
The spider spirit's movements became slow due to the influence of the purifying light, and Mo Xi took the opportunity to stab it in the vitals with a sword, successfully eliminating the spider spirit.
"Ali, go get the Golden Spirit Pearl!" Mo Xi shouted.
"Brother Moxi, please sit down quickly. I will help you purify the black energy on your wound!" At the same time, Mu Li also urged.
"Hehehe..." They were both stunned for a moment, looked at each other and laughed at the same time...
Mo Xi quickly put the Golden Spirit Pearl away and put it into Mu Li's hand. Mu Li then pulled Mo Xi into the space.
"Brother Moxi, don't move. I'll use the spiritual spring water to clean your wound first." Mu Li pulled Moxi to the spiritual spring, let him sit on the stone bench beside the spring, and then picked up a bowl of spiritual spring water and carefully helped Moxi clean the wound.
"Brother Moxi, does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt, it's just a minor injury, don't worry!" Mo Xi looked at Mu Li's distressed expression and quickly spoke to comfort her.
Mu Li didn't say anything. After carefully cleaning the wound, she used purification magic to completely help Mo Xi remove the black energy from the wound. She didn't stop until the wound on her arm was back to normal.
"Okay." Mu Li was finally happy when she saw Mo Xi's intact arm.
"Ali is so great!" Mo Xi rubbed Mu Li's hair with a doting look on his face.
"Oh, Brother Moxi, I'm not a child anymore, please don't mess up my hair!" Mu Li said angrily.
"Okay, I get it. Our Ali has grown up!" Mo Xi said while trying to suppress his smile as he looked at Mu Li, who was not even as tall as his shoulders.
"Don't laugh! I'll grow taller!" Mu Li noticed Mo Xi's smile and instantly got angry...
"Well, Ali is right!" Mo Xi agreed softly.
