Chapter 374
Ying Bing let out a soft sigh.
The divine sword, Yue Zhong Yin, appeared in her hand, its shimmering light casting a misty glow over her frost-like features, making her figure seem to blend into the shadows of the moonlight.
Without warning, a long arm was severed, clean and decisive.
But soon, more and more long arms emerged.
She moved like a spirit in the shadows of time, her form as swift as fleeting light, yet exuding an air of elegance and tranquility.
Swish, swish, swish—
One by one, the eerie long arms were cut down, falling into the Crystal Palace and turning to drifting ashes.
Bang—
Suddenly, a loud thud echoed, causing the entire Crystal Palace to shudder three times.
In mid-air, the expression of 'Qin Yuzhi' twisted slightly.
That was the sound of a coffin hitting the ground.
Inside lay a figure whose face was identical to that of 'Qin Yuzhi' in the air.
"She’s still alive."
Li Mo reached out to check for her breath.
It seemed that some powerful beings would encase themselves in coffins made of special materials, sleeping within, waiting for the arrival of a great era.
So, Qin Yuzhi's physical body appeared to be merely asleep.
The Heavenly Fate Divine Eye swept over.
【Name: Qin Yuzhi】
【Age: 35 (6640)】
【Root Bone: Udan Dream Bone.】
【Realm: Early Stage of Mastering the Profound (once a half-step to the Celestial Realm).】
【Heavenly Fate: Golden】
【Evaluation: The last Demon Calling Sect leader of Yunmeng Hall, upon sensing the awakening of the ancestral god of Yunmeng within her, oversaw the construction of Yunmeng Palace, intending to let her consciousness escape into the Tianhuang Domain. However, at that moment, the consciousness of the Yunmeng Immortal awakened, leading to a struggle between them.
In the end, the Tianhuang Domain was split in two during the conflict.
One half was transformed into a cage by burning her own 'Dream Path' to imprison the consciousness of the Yunmeng Immortal, while she and her physical body were both sealed within the coffin.】
【Recent Encounter: While asleep, dreamed of playing Mahjong.】
"Li Mo, wake her up!"
Ying Bing's crisp voice rang out.
Reality is the end of dreams.
In the end, the Yunmeng Immortal did not completely replace Qin Yuzhi.
"Wake up!"
Li Mo grabbed her collar and shook her violently.
He shook her so hard that her brain felt like it was about to scramble, yet this Demon Calling Sect leader still slept like a log.
Slap, slap!
The crisp sound of slapping echoed.
Tian Miao: "..."
Dude, you’re really hitting her.
Desperate times call for desperate measures.
In the future, the little tyrant with the divine hammer could justifiably claim he slapped the face of the ancestor of the Demon Calling Sect.
Qin Yuzhi's cheeks turned red, even slightly swollen, but there were still no signs of her waking up.
"Hmm?"
Li Mo noticed a corner of the coffin where a square object lay, with a red '中' character written on it.
Mahjong?
The genius Li Mo had a sudden idea and leaned close to her ear, whispering:
"Leader, you have eighteen Arhats, you’re about to win."
""
Qin Yuzhi's eyelids twitched, and the corners of her mouth curled up.
"But sorry, I’m going to steal your win!"
Li Mo shouted loudly.
"!"
Qin Yuzhi shot up like a corpse coming back to life, her body springing up suddenly.
She opened her eyes, a mix of fear and confusion washing over her.
"No, no..."
"My eighteen Arhats!"
The moment she woke up, the figure of 'Qin Yuzhi' in mid-air began to dissipate.
The Tianhuang Domain also froze in an instant, halting its distortion and turmoil.
But just before it completely vanished, 'Qin Yuzhi' fixed her gaze on the figure holding the Yue Zhong Yin, resembling a goddess beneath the moonlight.
She glanced at Li Mo and suddenly smiled:
"Hahaha, the one who once spoke of the indifference of heaven and earth, and the impermanence of the Dao, if she wakes up to find herself harboring mortal feelings, I wonder what her expression would be like?"
"In the Nine Heavens, she alone can contend with the other eight."
"She will wake up one day."
Li Mo suddenly stood up, a bad premonition creeping in.
What does the Yunmeng Immortal intend to do?!
In the next moment.
Before 'Qin Yuzhi' vanished, she suddenly caused the Tianhuang Domain to plummet!
That magnificent myriad of phenomena surged into Ying Bing's brow.
Her divine patterns, the increasingly brilliant moon patterns, erupted suddenly.
Countless divine lights surged and washed over her.
Ying Bing seemed to become the center of the world, as sacred and cold as the only being between heaven and earth.
Outside the palace.
The rolling phenomena caused the Crystal Palace to radiate a brilliant light, like a newly born sun rising.
The entire underground palace shook.
"What’s happening?"
Both the Demon Calling Sect and the Dayu Dynasty forces had been watching intently.
Though they were on edge, they still maintained a degree of restraint.
Whether the wonders within the Crystal Palace were a legacy or a treasure, they had yet to see the main figure and were unaware of any changes, so there was no need for a fight to the death.
"Has the divine object in the Crystal Palace chosen its master?"
Tan Zhu's palm was clenched so tightly that blood dripped from his fingers.
He had paid such a high price.
He even took on a powerful relative for this.
Now, was he just making a wedding dress for someone else?
"Sigh, if only my elder brother was here." Luo also sighed for the umpteenth time.
Across from him.
"This phenomenon is actually rooted in the same source as the Tianren City realm."
The old man with gray hair, referred to as the Emperor's Uncle by Jiang Yu, had a glint of light in his eyes.
He mastered the path of 'Thunder Tribulation.'
It was possible for him to forcibly break open the Crystal Palace, but he was afraid of damaging the divine objects inside, which was why he had refrained from using his full strength.
"What do you think, Emperor's Uncle? Who has obtained the legacy?"
Jiang Yu stood with his hands behind his back, his moon-white scholar's robe fluttering.
"That girl has the greatest chance."
The Emperor's Uncle chuckled:
"Your Highness's inner landscape must be the supreme one under heaven. If what’s inside is indeed the missing part of the Tianren City realm..."
"Whoever obtains it, let them keep it."
Meanwhile.
Inside the Crystal Palace.
Li Mo stared blankly at the figure before him, the embodiment of the 'Goddess of Gu Sha,' making him feel small and insignificant.
A notification sound echoed in his ears:
【Congratulations, host, you have successfully invested in 'Ying Bing,' allowing her to obtain half of the Tianhuang Domain.】
【You have a pending investment feedback to collect.】
P.S.: The pit is almost filled, dear readers, so don’t worry too much. I never get queasy writing romance lines, and this book will definitely have a satisfying ending, as it has been predetermined.
I haven’t given out any sweet moments lately, and I’ve lost quite a few readers, sob sob.
Only the support of my dear readers can heal my wounded heart~

Chapter 412: The Anomaly of Ying Bing, I Believe in You
Inside the Crystal Palace.
The divine light of the Tianhuang Domain resembled the ethereal shadows of overlapping worlds.
At this moment, it all merged into Ying Bing's brow, causing her to lose her grip on the divine sword in her hand, which fell helplessly to the ground, buzzing and vibrating as if it too was worried for its master.
The tall, cool girl stood there, her exquisite figure radiating divine light, accentuating her icy skin and delicate bones. As her hair flew, it seemed to take on a hint of frost and snow.
Her expression was blank, her eyes reflecting a sense of detachment and majesty.
"She..."
Qin Yuzhi finally awoke from the sorrow of losing her eighteen Arhats.
In fact, the moment she saw the Tianhuang Domain merging into Ying Bing's brow, her scalp tingled, and she nearly lost her mind.
It felt as if she had encountered a presence even more terrifying than the Dream God.
"Ice lump..."
Li Mo had no time to consider any rewards; he reached out, wanting to pull her closer.
"Wait!" Qin Yuzhi stopped him, her face filled with urgency:
"Hurry, let’s get back in the coffin, lie down, and close the lid. Just pretend we didn’t see anything."
"Why?"
Li Mo was not one to be overly curious in a crisis.
But in the eyes of this former half-step Celestial, now still a Master of the Profound, it was clear that something uncontrollable was happening to the ice lump.
"Your little lady has gathered three and a half of the Nine Souls of the Yuan Phoenix!"
Qin Yuzhi spoke rapidly, her mind in disarray.
""
From her disjointed words, Li Mo vaguely picked up on a few things.
Xiahua Qi, Blood Phoenix Essence, Jade Phoenix Spirit, Tianhuang Domain—these all belonged to the Nine Souls of the Yuan Phoenix. Coupled with the half-true words of the Yunmeng Immortal earlier...
The legacy of the Nine Heavens Immortal could awaken them.
Was the ice lump undergoing the same transformation as Qin Yuzhi?
The resurrection of the immortals?!
Thinking of this, Li Mo's heart tightened, then felt as if a piece had been ripped away, leaving a bottomless void.
"Is there any way?"
Li Mo first asked Tian Miao, but she shook her head slowly, her expression heavy.
Then he turned to Qin Yuzhi.
"Let me think of a way..."
Qin Yuzhi's face showed a hint of recollection, but then confusion washed over her as she slowly crouched down.
