Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 349: The beauty is annoyed by bathing in the moonlit pool

"This Xuanyuan, he and Brother Yinglong are like two peas in a pod."

Su Yun smiled and said, "Brother Yinglong also left the words 'Yinglong was here' on the two divine mountains in the Yinghuo Continent."

Ying Ying quickly pouted and said, "Su Scholar, look at who the person in the portrait is!"

Su Yun carefully looked at it and was shocked when he saw the words next to the man in the painting. He exclaimed, "The First Holy Emperor!"

Ying Ying excitedly said, "That's right, it's him! He left the Fire Cloud Cave and followed the remnants of the Three Emperors, searching all the way until he arrived here!"

Su Yun's mind was in a whirl, completely forgetting about any romantic thoughts with Wu Tong while bathing. He exclaimed, "He arrived here? He followed the footsteps of the Three Emperors and found this Guanghan Cave Heaven!"

He was extremely excited. The First Holy Emperor was the Xuanyuan Holy Emperor. Before the Xuanyuan Holy Emperor, there were the Three Emperors. However, the Three Emperors were not of the human race. Before leaving the world where Su Yun was, these Three Emperors had pointed to a certain direction in the starry sky, as if telling future generations to go there!

Before the end of his lifespan, the Xuanyuan Holy Emperor had wanted to make a desperate attempt to cross the tribulation and become an immortal. However, his physical body was severed, leaving only his spiritual essence.

Through the Fire Cloud Cave, his spiritual essence embarked on the same path as the Three Holy Emperors, searching for the path to the immortal realm.

And the saints of later generations, like Lou Ban and Cen Fuzi, were no exception. After their spiritual essence had no more attachments, they also embarked on the vast path of seeking immortality!

Lou Ban, Cen Fuzi, and many other saints and emperors in history were often like this!

These sages' spirits often disappeared in the vast universe, searching for that elusive hope.

And now, Su Yun unexpectedly found the spiritual essence left behind by the First Holy Emperor in the Guanghan Cave Heaven!

The spiritual essence of the First Holy Emperor, a legendary figure, had a rich and colorful experience. He was born in an era when gods and demons coexisted. That era was filled with various divine beings and demons. There were even many places in the world where calamities had not yet been extinguished, and many people from prehistoric worlds lived in the midst of calamities!

At that time, the human race had a low status and was ruled by gods and demons. The First Holy Emperor led the spiritual masters of the human race to conquer demons in various places, and summoned divine beings like Yinglong from the immortal realm to expel and suppress the gods and demons, bringing peace!

He was also the creator of realms. It was he who created the realms of Yulin, Liyuan, and Tianxiang!

To encounter such a mark of existence in the Guanghan Cave Heaven, Su Yun was even more excited than when he first met Yinglong!

The mark of the white-haired man smiled and said, "How did you all come here? Did you come here through the cassia tree? The branches of the cassia tree connect various worlds, and they may also connect to my world. If I can find this passage, perhaps I won't have to travel for thousands of years..."

He fell into a daze.

Su Yun's heart trembled. He had only been here for a few words' worth of time, but the First Holy Emperor had spent thousands of years to come here!

A spiritual essence, alone in the starry sky, traveling a long distance, took thousands of years to find the Guanghan Cave Heaven, only to find that it was already empty. It was likely that he had lived here for a hundred years, feeling extremely lonely.

"But I did make some discoveries. I saw various magnificent paths in the starry sky. I witnessed the eruption of galaxies and the birth of new suns. I passed through desolate planets and saw new life being born from ashes. I also experienced various civilizations and witnessed the traces left behind by gods, demons, and immortals in the universe."

He lay by the Moon Pool, smiling at Su Yun and Wu Tong, and said, "I also discovered this place and found treasures like the Moon Dew. Moon Dew is something that strengthens people's spiritual essence, allowing it to become closer to that of an immortal. I have been soaking here for a hundred years, and my spiritual essence has become stronger and stronger..."

Upon hearing this, Su Yun's heart stirred, and he immediately activated the Hong Furnace Transformation while soaking in the Moon Pool. He could feel the Moon Dew gradually permeating his spiritual realm!

In his spiritual realm, he didn't know when a full moon had appeared, and moonlight poured down, shining on his Deep Abyss!

As his Hong Furnace Transformation operated, he immediately felt his spiritual essence in the Deep Abyss growing rapidly!

The mark of the First Holy Emperor placed his hands under his head, propped up his legs, and said, "This indicates that the realm of the Deep Abyss that I created is somewhat imperfect. I have been pondering this issue for a hundred years."

Wu Tong asked in a low voice, "Why did he say that the realm of the Deep Abyss is imperfect?"

Su Yun explained quietly, "The Yulin and Beginning Movement realms are about strengthening one's spiritual essence, while the Deep Abyss realm is about pushing the spiritual essence to its limit. The First Holy Emperor, who created this realm, felt that he couldn't continue to let the spiritual essence grow. In desperation, he had to compress the spiritual essence and true essence with the pressure of the Nine Abyss, allowing them to merge."

Wu Tong suddenly realized, "The Deep Abyss and Tianxiang realms actually enhance not the spiritual essence itself, but the spiritual essence and true essence! It's a kind of false strength!"

Su Yun nodded. This was what the First Holy Emperor meant by "imperfect"!He came up with a unique solution and opened up the realm of the Deep Abyss. However, this was not the most perfect solution.

Since the Moon Dew can make the spirit stronger, it means that there must be other techniques or realms that can continue to cultivate the spirit!

Ying Ying's heart was pounding, she quickly took out pen and paper to record and said, "This means that the realm created by the First Holy Emperor is missing one realm! If the First Holy Emperor created the eighth realm, it would be incredible!"

Su Yun and Wu Tong, who were soaking in the Moon Pool, looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.

Foundation Establishment, Spirit Cultivation, Beginning Movement, Deep Abyss, Celestial Phenomenon, Saintly Conquest, Original Dao. These seven realms were created by the First Holy Emperor, and Master Su filled in the first realm.

If the First Holy Emperor, after a thousand years of death, could still create the eighth realm, it would be astonishing!

"I have been contemplating for a hundred years and have figured out the key: if we add the eighth realm and continue to cultivate the spirit, where does the Moon Dew in the spirit realm come from?"

The imprint of the First Holy Emperor said with a sigh, "The Moon Dew of the Broad Cold Cave Heaven didn't just appear out of thin air, right? I observed the Broad Cold Cave Heaven and one day, after a hundred years, I saw the first drop of dew fall from the leaves of the cassia tree. I found the eighth realm."

Su Yun and Wu Tong widened their eyes and looked at each other, their heartbeats becoming more intense.

Su Yun even saw ripples spreading in the water in front of Wu Tong's chest, caused by the pounding of her heart.

Ying Ying sat on Su Yun's shoulder, recording while poking the young man with her pen, whispering, "Don't keep looking at the places you shouldn't be looking at. Just sneak a glance or two."

Su Yun's face turned slightly red and he withdrew his gaze.

"But I have lost my physical body and only the spirit remains. The physical body is equivalent to the world and can determine the position of the Broad Cold Cave Heaven in the world. Without the physical body, I cannot determine the exact location of the Broad Cold Cave Heaven."

The imprint of the First Holy Emperor said sadly, "I can't open up this realm of the Broad Cold Cave Heaven."

But then he became excited again, stood up, and smiled, "I am already a dead person, I shouldn't have so many worries. I should go. The Fairy of the Broad Cold will lead her people to migrate, and I will continue to search forward along her path!"

He walked towards the door, suddenly stopped, turned around and smiled, "You being able to come here means that you are also searching for the Immortal Realm. The fact that you have been listening to my nonsense for so long and understanding my words means that you should be my people, right? The Immortal Realm is even harder to find than we imagined. But being able to see the former residence of an immortal here proves that the Immortal Realm does exist in this world."

"Don't give up hope."

He waved goodbye, as if encouraging the unseen future generations, and also encouraging himself.

Su Yun knew that he was just the imprint left by the First Holy Emperor's spirit and couldn't see himself, but he couldn't help but raise his hand and wave goodbye to him.

The imprint of the First Holy Emperor became fainter and finally dissipated.

Ying Ying put down her pen, bit her lip, and pondered, "The First Holy Emperor did not create the eighth realm, the realm of the Broad Cold Cave Heaven, but he saw the Moon Dew dripping from the cassia tree and suddenly realized something. So, this realm of the Broad Cold Cave Heaven is..."

"Splash."

The sound of water splashing, Wu Tong turned around and leaned against the edge of the pool lazily, saying, "Of course it's the cassia tree. What he means is that he only found the six major cave heavens in the Spirit Cultivation realm and confirmed the seventh spirit realm, but did not determine the exact location of the Broad Cold Cave Heaven. Without a physical body, he naturally cannot determine where the Broad Cold Cave Heaven is."

Ying Ying looked puzzled and looked at Su Yun, whispering, "Wu Tong seems a bit different from before..."

Su Yun's heart skipped a beat and he squinted his eyes.

Wu Tong continued, "But for us who have already determined the seventy-two cave heavens in our spirit realm, it is the simplest to find the cave heaven that is the Broad Cold Cave Heaven. Because here, only the Broad Cold Cave Heaven can attract the Qi of Heaven and Earth."

Su Yun looked at her back, the red-clothed girl's clothes soaked in Moon Dew, half-transparent, revealing a faint scene underneath, extremely thrilling and making people blush.

However, Su Yun became unusually calm, and continued her words, "And if you want to condense the dew, you must visualize the cassia tree in the Broad Cold Cave Heaven. This is the true meaning of the Moon Palace's triumph. The Moon Palace's triumph does not mean breaking off a branch of the divine tree, but visualizing the cassia tree engraved in the Broad Cold Cave Heaven."

Wu Tong still had her back to him and laughed softly, "Junior Brother, both you and I have already opened up the seventy-two cave heavens in our spirit realms. Whoever visualizes the cassia tree in the Broad Cold Cave Heaven and condenses the Moon Dew first will be the creator of this realm."

Su Yun laughed heartily, "Wu Tong, aren't you supposed to have a shattered Dao Heart, with every corner of your spirit realm transformed into a demon created by evil thoughts? How do you know which cave heaven is the Broad Cold Cave Heaven?"

Wu Tong chuckled, "Guess."

Su Yun's gaze shifted from the curve of her back, landing on her snow-white neck, watching her hair floating in the water, he chuckled, "I don't need to guess. You heard the First Saint Emperor say that the Fairy of Guanghan moved with her clan, and thus, you regained your Dao heart!"

Ying Ying was solemn, her finger on her lips as she blew a whistle. Suddenly, she dived into Su Yun's spiritual realm, indeed seeing ripples in Su Yun's spiritual realm, as the white rhinoceros jumped into it.

Ying Ying mounted the white rhinoceros and charged into Wu Tong's spiritual realm.

Wu Tong laughed, "My clan is still here, so it's only natural to regain the Dao heart."

Su Yun chuckled, "So, you want to comprehend the Guanghan realm before me."

Wu Tong turned her head, smiling charmingly, "A demon becoming a Saint Emperor, creating a realm, blessing future generations, and being worshipped by all beings."

She giggled, "If all beings knew the truth, wouldn't their Dao hearts be turned upside down? Just like you spirit masters, would your Dao hearts shatter in an instant? My path to becoming a saint would be complete."

"Demon, I knew you were up to something!"

Su Yun leaped from the moon pool, gathering a large amount of moon dew, and stuffed it into his spiritual realm, shouting, "With me here, your plot will not succeed!"

As soon as his words fell, a flurry of red dresses came flying at him. Wu Tong's voice was now far, now near, giggling, "Junior brother, can you resist? Your Dao heart has never been able to resist my temptation!"

Su Yun activated the Hong Furnace transformation, firmly guarding his Dao heart, shouting, "Subdue the demon!"

Buzz!

Behind him, rings of Buddha light formed, shining towards the center, forming a Buddha figure with the light, which was a Buddhist supernatural power he learned when he and Yu Qingluo were studying the old scriptures in the Fire Cloud Cave. It was most suitable for subduing the heart demon.

As Wu Tong's demonic nature invaded Su Yun's Dao heart, Su Yun immediately saw a delicate foot slowly revealing from the red dress, he laughed, "Wu Tong, you're out of tricks! I have righteous energy, and evil cannot invade!"

"If it can't invade, why is your Buddha bleeding from the nose!" Wu Tong took the opportunity to gather the other half of the moon dew and rushed out of the room.

Just as she rushed out of the room, about to enter the room where Su Yun was, suddenly illusions appeared before her eyes. She saw herself wearing a phoenix crown and wedding dress, marrying Su Yun, and Su Yun lifting her veil.

Wu Tong's heart was in chaos, she quickly urged her Qi and blood, and the illusion immediately shattered. Su Yun seized the opportunity to rush out of the room!

The two of them were constantly tripping each other up on the way, rushing towards the Guanghan Fairy Platform, the best place to observe the osmanthus tree.
