Although Zuan was also nervous, he still held her hand to comfort her.
Bi Linglong trembled. Normally, she would have withdrawn her hand with restraint, but at this moment, she held hands with him and did not want to separate.
"Empress, is there any way? Are we really destined to die here?" Zu An cried out to Mi Li in his heart.
"What's the panic? Just keep watching." Mi Li snorted, looking up at the continent above, a trace of sadness flashing across her beautiful face.
Zuan was somewhat puzzled, feeling that her reaction had been a bit strange since entering this secret realm.
"It's stopped! It's stopped!" Cheers erupted from the Qi Prince's Mansion in the distance. The continent stopped hundreds of feet above their heads and then ceased its descent.
Even Zhao Ruizhi breathed a long sigh of relief.
Just then, a cracking sound came from above. Everyone hurriedly looked up and saw several huge, visible cracks appearing on the ground.
The cracks grew larger and larger, until finally the entire land was divided into three pieces.
Other scattered rocks, soil, trees, and all sorts of random things fell down like rain, and Zuan and his group began a new round of operations to defend the floating island.
However, the falling objects didn't last long, and soon beams of light shone down from above, dispelling the gloom that had lingered for days.
A gentle breeze swept by, and the huge cloud of dust caused by the landslide slowly dissipated. When everyone looked up, they saw three exceptionally large floating islands in front of them.
Each of these floating islands was many times larger than the one Zhao Ruizhi and his group were on; they were more like floating continents than floating islands.
"I think I can see the blue sky!"
"Sunshine! I see sunshine!"
...
After a nearly desperate struggle that lasted for more than half a month, everyone in the Qi Prince's Mansion escaped death and wept with joy.
"What is that? Is that a celestial palace?" Just then, someone suddenly pointed to a spot diagonally above and exclaimed.
It turns out that the floating island they were on was originally located directly beneath that continent. Now that the continent has split into three, they are located in the middle of the three large floating islands, and they can already see the scenery on those islands.
The three enormous floating islands were adorned with intricate carvings and painted beams, resembling towering palaces, each room seemingly constructed of gold, silver, and precious jade.
Everyone originally thought that it was deep in the earth, filled with magma and poisonous gas, but to their surprise, it was a place of green mountains and clear waters, with dense flowers everywhere and various tempting and delicious fruits hanging on the trees.
There seemed to be various birds and beasts on it, all of them pure white. Combined with the swirling clouds and mist in the mountains, the three floating islands appeared ethereal and otherworldly.
Zhao Ruizhi became unusually excited, muttering to himself, "Could these be the three sacred mountains mentioned in ancient texts? 'Sea travelers speak of Yingzhou, its misty waves making it hard to find...' I finally understand what that means! Hahaha, immortality really is possible!"
Thinking of this, his eyes gleamed with excitement.
On the other side, Zuan couldn't help but ask Mi Li, "Did you already know this would happen?"
"I don't know, it's just a guess." Mi Li withdrew her gaze and leaned casually against a tree, looking exceptionally lonely.
