Emperor of the North Chapter 838

Chapter 838 - Eight Cauldrons

"Ah, the Returning Pearl of the Ruins. If you can't use it, then I can only use you to take advantage of it. I hope you won't disappoint me. No matter what you say, destruction of the Dao has such a great reputation!"

After Li Mu took out the Pearl of Return, he softly muttered to the Pearl of Return, and then walked to the gray light screen, and took out the small half bottle of heart blood Qi Qi Tian had given him.

From within the White Jade Bottle, Li Mu dripped a drop of bright red blood essence onto the earthen yellow Pearl of Primordial Ruinworld. After the pearl fused with Qi Tian's blood essence, it released a piercing earthen yellow spirit light, condensed outside of Li Mu's body and formed an earthen yellow light barrier, enveloping Li Mu's entire body within it.

Because this was not the first time he had used the power of the Pearl of Return, Li Mu easily controlled the yellow spirit light outside his body, and moved closer to the gray light screen in front of him.

As the yellow colored light shield formed from the destroyed dao energy got closer and closer to the gray light screen, Li Mu's heart also became more and more nervous.

The reason why Li Mu was nervous in his heart was not because he was afraid that the shattered dao energy would not have any miraculous effects, but it was mainly because Li Mu did not know if this could be considered as forcefully trying to break through. After all, he had just lured out a Lightning Python comparable to Late True King Stage with his Seven Birds Wind and Fire Fan.

"Bo!"

A clear sound that was as sharp as a drop of water suddenly rang out from the gray light barrier. The yellow light barrier formed by Li Mu's Daoqi finally made contact with the grey light barrier.

What made Li Mu heave a long sigh of relief was that the light barrier formed by the shattered Dao-Qi did not attract any violent reactions like the one formed by the Seven Birds of Wind and Fire Fan, and upon contact with the yellow light barrier, the surface of the grey light barrier showed signs of melting.

"Effective!" It worked! "However, this grey light screen was formed by some unknown restriction, and even the destructive Dao Qi was unable to break it!"

Looking at the grey light screen that produced the dissipation phenomenon, Li Mu was both happy and worried. He was happy that the shattered dao aura had an effect on the grey light screen, but what he was worried about was that the grey light screen was too demonic, even if he had shattered dao aura, it would still be difficult for it to immediately dissipate.

As time slowly pa.s.sed, the yellow light barrier around Li Mu had made no small progress. A small part of it had already penetrated the gray light barrier, but Li Mu had discovered a huge problem.

Li Mu knew the reason why the energy had become weaker and weaker. When he had first met Qi Tian, he already knew that although the power released by the Soul Suppressing Orb was strange, there was a limit to the amount of energy it could unleash. It would become weaker and weaker as time pa.s.sed.

Although Li Mu was a little reluctant, he still poured out a drop of his blood essence from the jade bottle in his hand and poured it into the Pearl of Ruins.

would never give up on anything else, even if it was a Transferring Spirit Liquid. But the blood essence in the jade bottle was from Qi Tian's heart, even if it was just one drop, it would consume a lot of Qi.

Although Qi Tian only met a few of his own disciples on normal occasions, Li Mu and Qi Feifan still had a very close relationship between master and disciple, so even with the Pearl of Graveyard, Li Mu had only used it a few times, unless he was forced to do so occasionally.

As the second drop of refined blood entered, the light screen formed by Li Mu's shattered dao energy immediately released a blinding yellow light, and following that, the grey light screen warped and changed. Using the momentum, Li Mu stepped into the grey light screen.

"I'm finally in!"

After entering the grey light screen, Li Mu finally heaved a sigh of relief. Even though he had spent a lot of time and could be said to have used all the methods he had, he had at least entered the Sky No. 1 Pavilion in the end.

Li Mu kept the Pearl of Primordial Ruinworld in his hand, and then, he looked around. As Li Mu looked around, he felt that something was strange, because Leng Qingcheng was not in the first floor of the Heavenly Ranking Tower. There were only seventy to eighty wooden shelves placed in the hall regularly.

Li Mu took a quick look and realised that most of them were spirit treasures, ingredients, books, jade boxes and other items. But what made Li Mu suspicious, was that the shelves were not all full, but there were some empty s.p.a.ces, obviously the things that were originally on them, were taken by someone.

Under his curiosity, Li Mu directly walked in front of the closest shelf. This shelf had more than ten s.p.a.ces, but there were still seven to eight items placed on it.

"These should be the great treasures that Taixuan Sect has placed in this Heavenly Ranking Tower. It looks quite decent."

Li Mu looked at the seven to eight remaining items on the wooden shelf, his heart muttered, he reached out and grabbed onto the jade box on the shelf, but before he could touch the jade box, a strong force suddenly erupted from inside the shelves, shaking Li Mu's hand, which he extended out.

Li Mu never thought that these wooden shelves would also have restrictions planted on them. Thinking back to how he was struck by lightning not long ago when he forcefully charged into the main gate, he resisted the urge to use force. Right now, the most important thing for him was to find Leng Qingcheng, so he did not care about these Taixuan Sect's so-called great treasures.

Li Mu carefully searched through the first floor of this Sky No. 1 Pavilion, and finally found the stairs that led to the second floor in a corner. He quickly went around the numerous wooden shelves in the pavilion, and went up to the second floor through the stairs.

Once he entered the second floor, Li Mu realized that the arrangement of the second floor wasn't too different from the first floor. The only difference was that the number of shelves on the second floor was a little less, there were about seventy to eighty people on the first floor, but there were only sixty to seventy people on the second floor.

The shelves on the second floor were also filled with some things, not much different from the first floor. However, compared to the shelves on the first floor, the shelves on the second floor had quite a few s.p.a.ces.

With regards to the second floor, Li Mu only took a casual glance, and did not attempt to collect the things on the shelves, he quickly found the stairs to the third floor and walked up with large strides.

On the third floor, Li Mu still did not find him. Compared to the changes on the second floor, the number of shelves on the third floor was less, around fifty of them. Li Mu thought that the things in this Sky No. 1 Pavilion would get lesser the further up they went, and maybe, the more precious they were.

After he roughly understood the rules of every floor in this Heavenly Mystery, Li Mu did not pay any more attention to any of this. He quickly pa.s.sed the fourth and fifth floors of Heavenly Mystery but he still could not find Leng Qingcheng on these two floors.

As he got closer and closer to the top floor of this Heavenly Ranking Tower, Li Mu's heart became more and more nervous. This entire s.p.a.ce, including the Supreme Mystery Temple, gave Li Mu a strange feeling, let alone a dangerous feeling.

Li Mu was truly afraid that something would happen to Leng Qingcheng. After all, out of his two women, Xu Ruqing was already dead, and only Leng Qingcheng was left. If something were to happen to the other party, Li Mu would not even know how to face it.

The stairs from the fifth floor to the sixth floor were no different from the ones Li Mu had pa.s.sed through already. Very quickly, Li Mu arrived at the sixth floor of the Sky No. 1 Tower.

"Qingcheng!"

The moment Li Mu reached the sixth floor, he immediately saw Leng Qingcheng. Compared to the first floor, the area of the sixth floor was not too different. However, there were no more wooden shelves, and what replaced them were eight Four-legged Bronze Cauldron.

These eight Bronze Cauldron were placed according to the location of the gossip. Each of them was nearly ten meters wide, and the most eye-catching thing was that each of the eight cauldrons had burning green flames inside, and there was clearly something moving up and down within the green flames.

"Chaos Fire! This place actually has Chaos Fire, and it seems like there's something inside too! "

Li Mu looked at the green flames within the eight Bronze Cauldron, and immediately sensed it clearly. This was precisely the Chaos Fire he had seen in the Heaven Burying Hall back then, and his Eastern Emperor Bell had been made using this Chaos Fire as well.

Something that was able to float within the Chaos Fire, Li Mu didn't even need to think to know that it was definitely extraordinary. However, Li Mu restrained the curiosity in his heart, because he realized that Leng Qingcheng was sitting cross-legged in front of a gigantic cauldron amongst the eight Bronze Cauldron.
