Chapter 1057 Black Palace
Luo Li crossed her arms, "So, you want me to help?"
The Moon God's shadowy figure nodded slightly, her silver hair flowing like a waterfall. "Indeed. Only the Chaos Bloodline can unlock the Moon God Clan's final inheritance trial. In exchange, I can teach you the Moon God Clan's supreme secret technique, the Moon God Technique."
Luo Li was puzzled, "Don't I already know how to do it?"
The Moon God's shadow said, "You only realized the first move of the Moon God Art because of my words at the critical moment, and it was only with the help of a trace of my original power that you were able to severely injure that Saint Lord demon. However, the power of the first move alone could never have caused such a huge killing power, because the Moon God Art, like the Chaos Art, has a total of nine moves."
Luo Li narrowed her eyes. "It sounds like a good deal. But—"
She suddenly changed the subject, "How do I know you're not lying to me? What if there's danger after the seal is broken?"
The Moon Goddess's shadow sighed softly, and lightly tapped her fingertips, and a stream of silver light sank into Luo Li's brow.
In an instant, a memory emerged in Luo Li's mind - it was the last scene before the destruction of the Moon God Clan: black fog swallowed the city, and countless Moon God Clan warriors turned into light points and dissipated.
At the end of the scene, a seriously injured silver-haired woman sealed the entire Moon Temple into the Chaos Jade. It was the shadow of the Moon God in front of him.
The memory faded, and Luo Li frowned slightly, "That black fog... is it the demon seed from the Great Desolation?"
The Moon God's shadow nodded, "Indeed. Back then, the Moon God Clan used all their strength to barely seal the invading demons. The Continent of the Gods was severely damaged by the demons, and it took a great price to kill them. Now that the demons have returned, I must find the successor to the Moon God's power as soon as possible."
Luo Li thought for a moment, then suddenly curled her lips into a smile, "Okay, I promise you."
"How do we do that?"
"Drop your blood on the ancient books."
Luo Li bit her fingertip, and a drop of blood fell on the surface of the silver ancient book.
In an instant, the entire book burst into dazzling silver light, and the star maps on the twelve jade pillars lit up one by one, interweaving into a huge star array in the sky.
The Moon God's shadow formed seals with both hands and spoke solemnly, "Using Chaos as a guide, I will initiate the Moon God's covenant—"
A crack slowly appeared in the center of the star array, and a crystal clear crescent jade pendant emerged and hung in front of Luo Li.
"This is the Moon God Seal. Wear it, and you will be able to practice all the secret arts of the Moon God Clan. When the true successor appears, it will guide you to meet. When that time comes, please bring her here to receive the Moon God inheritance."
The moment Luo Li stretched out her hand and grasped the Moon God Seal, a cold touch spread from her palm to her whole body.
The silver lines on the jade pendant moved like a living thing, quietly wrapping around her wrist and eventually turning into a crescent mark.
"This is..." She looked down at the faint silver light on her wrist.
The Moon Goddess's figure began to become transparent: "My mission has been completed. Goodbye, Luo Li——"
Before he finished speaking, the entire temple suddenly shook violently.
The star maps on the jade pillar went out one after another, and Luo Li's feet were empty, and she fell into a sudden crack in the void.
When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to the Chaos Jade.
There was only a light breeze blowing around, and the barrier in front of him returned to its original state.
Luo Li touched the mark on her wrist and said, "It seems that only when someone is able to inherit the Moon God's legacy can I enter the Moon God Temple again."
She exhaled, looked at the vast Chaos Jade Land around her, and whispered, "Could it be that there are other ancient gods' inheritances here?"
She pressed her forehead and decided to look around first. As the owner of the Chaos Jade, she had not seen the new parts of the Chaos Jade.
Luo Li continued to move forward along the newly appeared area in the Chaos Jade. The fog around her slowly dissipated with her footsteps, revealing a strange scene hidden in the depths of the chaos.
In the distance, a broken stone tablet stood on a barren plain. The tablet was engraved with ancient runes, exuding a desolate and heavy atmosphere.
"What is this...?" Luo Li approached, her fingertips lightly touching the stele. In an instant, the runes lit up with a dark golden light, and a powerful will rushed into her mind -
"Fighting against heaven and earth, I am the only desolate god!"
A deep and domineering voice exploded in her consciousness, as if thousands of fighting spirits were roaring.
Luo Li's heart was shaken, and she quickly withdrew her hand, and the light of the stone tablet dimmed.
"Wild God?" She murmured softly, vaguely remembering the ancient war god clan mentioned in ancient books. It was rumored that they proved their truth through war and could tear the void with their bare hands.
"It seems that there is more than just the Moon God clan's inheritance in the Chaos Jade..." Luo Li's eyes flickered slightly, and a hint of excitement rose in his heart.
At this moment, the crescent mark on the wrist suddenly heated up slightly, and a ray of silver light pointed to the distant mountains.
"Hmm?" She looked in the direction indicated and saw a black palace vaguely suspended between the mountains, surrounded by dark purple thunder, as if isolated from the world.
Luo Li narrowed her eyes, her fingertips unconsciously rubbing the crescent mark, "Where do you want me to go?"
The silver light flickered slightly, as if responding to her question.
"Okay, I have to see the new territory of Chaos Jade anyway." She curled the corners of her lips, and her figure turned into a stream of light, flying towards the direction of the black palace.
The closer you get to the mountains, the denser the surrounding spiritual energy becomes, and even creates a subtle resistance.
Luo Li practiced the Chaos Art, and a faint light appeared around her body, and her speed increased instead of decreasing.
When she finally landed on the stone platform in front of the floating palace, a deep laugh suddenly came from all directions -
"After so many years... finally someone has set foot here."
Luo Li paused and looked around warily, "Who?"
A tall figure slowly emerged from the shadows at the edge of the stone platform.
The man was wearing dark gold armor, his hair was red like flames, and his golden eyes were like burning suns, giving off an oppressive feeling.
The man stood with his arms folded, his gaze lingering on the crescent mark on her wrist for a moment, "That fellow, the Moon God, actually came to you first."
Luo Li raised an eyebrow, "Do you know the Moon God?"
"Humph, we're both ancient gods, so naturally we know each other," the man sneered. "But that woman is always talking nonsense, unlike us, the Wild Gods, who only believe in power."
As he spoke, he suddenly raised his hand and a huge war drum rose up in the center of the stone platform, with blood-red patterns engraved on the drum surface.
"Since we're here, let's give it a try," the man's golden eyes gleamed. "Beat this war drum and show me just how powerful someone with Chaos blood can be!"
Luo Li stared at the war drum and could feel the violent energy contained in it.
She chuckled, "What if I can't knock it?"
The man grinned, revealing his white teeth. "Then let the fighting spirit rip your soul apart and become part of this drum. But you're different. You have the Chaos Jade to protect you, so at most you'll only be slightly injured."
"..." Luo Li was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised her hand, the power of chaos condensing in her palm, "Sounds quite exciting."
