From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

Partridge Whistle, Old Foreigner, and Flower Spirit copied each other, relaxed their bodies and minds, and sank their consciousness into the inner landscape to observe the "oil lamp." The light illuminated their hearts and spread throughout their bodies and minds, and all their distracting thoughts vanished in an instant. Their entire being became as one with the same magnetic field.

If they were to cultivate on their own, it would take them countless hours to reach such a state. But with the light given by the river and the "lamp oil" created by the Azure Dragon and White Dragon, they could light a "lamp" and briefly enter a state of physical and mental tranquility, enjoying a moment of peace.

Even so, to avoid being affected by the omnipresent electromagnetic field, the three members of Partridge Whistle kept their eyes closed as they entered the portal and tunnel, minimizing the amount of information entering the tunnel. Only the first generation Jiang Liu kept his eyes open, able to ignore the entanglement of those resentful thoughts.

As they were moving forward, they suddenly heard a rustling sound.

From the cracks in the walls on both sides of the tunnel, long worms with round, fleshy crowns on their heads and black scales all over their bodies slithered out.

The first generation Jiang Liu took a breath and blew it out forcefully.

In an instant!

The howling wind blew the black snakes away, dissolving their flesh and bones and shattering their internal organs, leaving no trace of them.

At that very moment, the first generation Jiang Liu glanced back and said to the three, "We need to speed things up. Lu Jin and Zhang Zhiwei are already engaged in battle with the first generation Ghost Mother. It won't be long before they force her to use her ability to transform into a celestial being..."

# Chapter 1037 Heavenly Palace

As the first river flow quickened its pace, the end of the tunnel came into view.

But the closer you get to the exit, the more open eye patterns appear on the surrounding walls.

Compared to the tunnel at the entrance, the crystal stones on one side of the wall at the exit are twisted at an unimaginable angle.

Directly in front of them was a protruding white rock, with sharp edges and twisted corners.

Some parts are clockwise, and some parts are counterclockwise, making it look like a twisted rope.

This was not caused by any geological movement, but rather by the distorted resentment of the girl who died in the Demon Kingdom.

The power of the mind is evident once it can influence reality.

Besides, there are some wooden buildings around the white rock, but they are rotten and dilapidated, and one section collapses at the slightest touch.

The first generation Jiang Liu allowed the three people behind him to open their eyes and climb up the white rock with him to look around.

This used to be the opening of a sloping well, with a vast expanse of white at the bottom, the bottom of which could not be seen.

There are steps inside the well, but they look very smooth, vaguely resembling a slope.

“Countless slaves and prisoners were driven down this slope as sacrifices in the past, which wore down this entire staircase!” Partridge Whistle squatted down, reached out and touched the slope, and his body involuntarily trembled.

It wasn't that he possessed the same information-sensing ability as Jiang Liu; it was just that the mere thought of the steps leading to the lower levels being worn smooth by the bodies of slaves and captives sent a chill down his spine.

Although human sacrifice was very common in the Central Plains during the Xia and Shang dynasties, it was still far more absurd than what the Demon Kingdom had done.

They used the bodies of sacrificial offerings to smooth down a flight of stairs...

How many people would that require?

And how long did it last?

It's simply unbelievable!

"Therefore, the Demon Kingdom perished."

The first generation Jiang Liu casually described a fact, which woke the three people who were still in a daze. They took the lead and slid down the slope as if they were ice skating.

Partridge Whistle, Old Foreigner, and Flower Spirit exchanged glances and, without further hesitation, followed closely behind. However, they dared not stand up straight, so they either squatted down or placed a cushion under their bottoms, sliding down one after another as if on a slide.

The slope was surrounded by protruding crystal stones, and the natural light reflected the four people's images, making them feel as if they had entered a kaleidoscope.

But this distance is not long.

In about thirty seconds, we reached the end. The slope was parallel to the ground, but there was a huge fault line seven or eight meters ahead.

After reaching the bottom, the first generation of river flow stood firmly.

Partridge Whistle wasn't as dashing as the first generation Jiang Liu. He used the barbs on his forearm, which were attached to the mountain-climbing armor, to pierce the slope, slowing down and stopping Old Foreigner and Hua Ling. Only then did he stabilize his body and reduce his speed, thus avoiding the tragedy of falling directly into the ground fault due to inertia.

"What kind of hellhole is this?"

The old foreigner picked up the cushion from under his bottom, dusted himself off, coughed twice, and looked around.

This is an extremely vast crystal mine.

Look up—

Water droplets seep down from the dome, which is tens of meters high, and the crystal veins on it crisscross and stretch downwards.

If an earthquake were to occur, without Jiang Liu's immense supernatural powers, he would surely be smashed into mincemeat.

However, the crystals were quite clear, and if a person moved below, the reflection above would also sway. Because the crystals were crisscrossed, it looked as if countless ghostly figures were swaying wildly above.

If a timid person were to enter this place, they would be scared to death!

Looking down—

The group was on a protruding platform near the mountain wall. Beyond the fault line, there was a vast expanse of clouds, like the white mist in the mountain forest at dawn, or like the steam rising from a hot pot.

But it's not water vapor; it's a special kind of dust.

The first generation Jiang Liu grasped a handful, his palm covered with a layer of fine particles, like sand or crystal, which shimmered under the light.

"Is this the Heavenly Palace?"

Hua Ling looked up at the sea of ​​clouds and saw that the clouds below maintained a certain height, dividing the cave in two and making it resemble a heavenly palace in the upper realm.

And it is within this sea of ​​clouds that a mountain resembling topaz appears and disappears.

A stone path leads through the air between the platform where everyone is located and the top of the Yellow Jade Mountain.

It is called a stone path, but it is actually a fossil vine that resembles a plant. It is twisted and has fossil decorations that resemble eyes. Some eyes have a single pupil, while others have dozens of pupils piled up together.

distortion!

weird!

But this stone bridge was built based on such a strange and peculiar plant fossil.

"It is not a celestial palace, but a natural phenomenon caused by a special environment."

The first generation Jiang Liu flicked away the dust particles in his hand and stepped onto the strange stone bridge first. "Continue, the final destination is inside Huangyu Mountain."

Partridge Whistle, Old Foreigner, and Flower Spirit hurriedly followed, and along the bridge, it felt as if they were walking on a sea of ​​clouds. They traveled safely and without hindrance, and easily arrived at the pale yellow stone peak.

"Would you say we've also experienced a bit of flying through the clouds?"

The old foreigner joked, "If I get married and have children in the future, and I describe this experience to them, they definitely won't believe me."

"That's not necessarily true."

The first generation Jiang Liu laughed and said, "What I want to do is to integrate cultivation with life and with science. The future will be a great era where a hundred schools of thought contend and a hundred flowers bloom!"

"When you have kids in the future, you'll probably think your story isn't interesting enough!"

"That's true."

Hua Ling imagined the future and said with a grin, "If the future is truly a great era where cultivation and science flourish together, Second Senior Brother, you have to make this experience even more dangerous so that it can fool the children."

"Haha."

Partridge Whistle chuckled twice, and the gloom he had felt earlier from lamenting the Demon Kingdom's use of slaves and captives for sacrifices to carve out a passage was completely swept away.

Looking at the Yellow Jade Mountain Peak again, it is a semi-circle in shape, with the banner clouds on the top floating erratically, seemingly with firelight appearing and disappearing, or as if illuminated by starlight, truly like a fairyland.

Even the first generation Jiang Liu had to sigh, "The first generation Ghost Mother may have been a cruel ruler, but she certainly knew how to enjoy life."

Look up again.

At the very top, countless starlight gathered, and a real dragon could be vaguely seen hiding within it, darting up and down, yet it was not clearly visible.

"The spirit of the universe, the Ancestral Dragon..."

Gazing at the dragon shape amidst the starlight and fire, the first generation Jiang Liu sighed in his heart, "After two hundred million years, it is finally about to take shape, but unfortunately, the timing is not right."

It has not yet been born, but it has the tendency to split into three, transforming into a phoenix, a peacock, and a roc.

But don't blame me or us. After all, it was only after the Zhou Qi system was established that we realized the Zhou Qi circulation and flow were misaligned. Coupled with the invasion of higher-dimensional wills, we could only find a way to tear everything down and start over...

With this thought in mind, the first generation Jiang Liu pondered for a moment, then took out the Divine Iron from his storage ring and handed it to Partridge Whistle.

# Chapter 1038 Dragon Pill

The moment Partridge Whistle received the Divine Iron, his body lurched forward, and he staggered two or three steps before regaining his balance. He stared in astonishment at the club, which was about two and a half meters long, and exclaimed incredulously, "This thing weighs over a hundred pounds?"

This weight is not great. With Partridge Whistle's current strength, he could shake not just a mere hundred-odd pounds, but even something weighing ten thousand pounds.

The reason I almost lost my balance was because I realized that this stick, which was only as thick as a teacup, was so heavy that I didn't react for a moment.

"This stick is really beautiful!"

Hua Ling stroked the lotus, fire, and dragon patterns on one end of the golden hoop and exclaimed, "I didn't look closely before, I didn't expect the patterns to be so rich!"

The old foreigner asked, "Is this gold?"

"No, strictly speaking, it's a plant with animal-like characteristics."

The first generation Jiang Liu gave a brief introduction, then asked the three to open their palms and inscribe the three characters for Heaven, Earth, and Man respectively. He said, “Do me a favor. You stay on the outskirts of Huangyu Mountain, form the Three Powers formation, and perform the Circulation of Qi, pouring it into these three characters.”

I need to retrieve my primordial spirit, but the aura spirit at the top—the Ancestral Dragon—might be disturbed by the shock; I must stabilize it first.

"That's no problem."

Partridge Whistle realized that the first generation Jiang Liu was going in alone, so he handed over the Muchen Pearl, "But how much time do you need? Our cultivation is insufficient, so we may not be able to last too long. Moreover, maintaining the circulation of Qi for a long time will also cause the meridians to swell and hurt."

Have you forgotten where you are?

The first generation Jiang Liu smiled slightly, "Dragon Peak Land."

Snapped!

The old foreigner clapped his hands and exclaimed, "Senior brother, Brother Jiang is right! The vitality here is incredibly rich; just breathing here makes us feel refreshed!"

Aside from eating when we're hungry, at other times we just keep circulating energy throughout the body and strengthening our life force, and it won't cause any swelling or pain in our meridians!

This is our lucky break!

Partridge Whistle suddenly realized, but then wondered why the first generation Jiang Liu had entrusted him with this divine iron weapon.
