Imperial God Emperor - 1003 - Dragon palace

Of course, according to Ye Qingyu’s usual style, he naturally had to store away in his pockets the precious and rare divine herbs he saw along the way, but this time he did not want to be so unrestrained as he was back in the 18th district of the Black Demon Abyss, where he frantically picked everything he saw and instead selectively chose some varieties that he had never seen before.     

At the same time, along the way he also saw many mythological animals and spiritual creatures hidden in the depths of the mountains. Some of which Ye Qingyu knew about and had read in the ancient books of the God and Demon Age, such as the [Three Yuan Foot Beast], [Ancient Ibis], [Scale Badger] and so on. There were also some that were completely unfamiliar to him. But no matter what species it was all were extinct in the present age.     

Another hour passed by.    

Under the guidance of the million-year-old soul, Ye Qingyu finally came to a huge lake that was surrounded by forest on three sides and mountains on the other.      

The thousands of meter surface area of the lake was quiet and tranquil, like a large smooth mirror was dotted between the mountains, glistening under the sunlight and reflecting the blue sky, white clouds, the green hills and ancient trees. It looked like a treasured mirror of a fairy. There were mists curling up around the lake, rippling, and it was difficult not to get unconsciously entranced.     

“This is the Land of Hidden Immortals.”     

The voice of the millions-year-old soul came all of a sudden, with a hint of imperceptible excitement.     

This is it?    

Ye Qingyu stood by the lake, closely surveying the terrain.     

In less than a few moments, there was a harvest.       

“I see!”     

When he got to the lakeside, he only felt that the scenery was pleasant and beautiful, but it was only upon a careful examination that Ye Qingyu found that in the underground of the lake, there seemed to be nine divine dragon veins divided into nine ends gathered here. Moreover, the lake before him was the eye of the convergence. And the giant lake was divided into two ends, one large and one small, like the sun and moon. It was indeed the auspicious sign of nine dragons playing with a pearl according to Feng Shui.     

If this place was the Land of Hidden Immortals, it was indeed worthy of the name.      

“The Immortal body is in this lake, we’ll go down now, but you have to be careful,-” the million-year-old soul reminded.     

Ye Qingyu nodded, shrouding his body with a layer of thin silver light, and dived into the lake in a flash.     

The water was clear and everything could be seen.     

Ye Qingyu’s diving speed was not considered as extremely fast.     

But the lake seemed to be bottomless, even after thousands of meters he still could not see the bottom of the lake.      

“The lake is strange.”     

Ye Qingyu had never seen such a deep lake.    

It seemed that the real Land of Hidden Immortals was at the bottom of the lake.     

He understood.     

After about half an hour.     

Ye Qingyu estimated that he had already dived about tens of thousands of meters deep in one breath.      

As he dived down, the light rays grew dull and there seemed to be strange laws flowing around. Given Ye Qingyu’s present eyesight, he could only vaguely see that there were many strange shoals of fish traveling back and forth around him. Some were very large, like ancient apes, slowly advancing through the ink-blue lake like a giant boat. And some were very small, thumb-sized, mischievously approaching Ye Qingyu and seemingly looking for something.     

But at this moment, Ye Qingyu was not in the mood to study these strange fish.     

Where Immortals live, there was bound to be strange creatures. The lake was so bizarre, bottomless, and was definitely not an ordinary place. Perhaps there were dangers lurking in the dark. With a cautious mind and under the guidance of the million-year-old soul, he continued to dive down another thousands of meters.     

His field of vision started to reduce and could only see less than ten meters away. Everything else was dark.    

He continued to dive down.     

Another hour passed and it was another tens of thousands of meters deeper.     

The surroundings had become pitch black like ink.      

“Hey? This…” Ye Qingyu suddenly discovered that beneath the darkness, there was a faint twinkle of light, like a little star shining faintly on a dark night.     

There’s light!     

Ye Qingyu’s lit up with joy, and quickly sped downwards.     

Then after about another tens of thousands of meters.     

The light in the water was restored.     

There was pool of light below.     

His visibility was no longer blocked by the flow of water, and everything in the environment had become much clearer.    

He had finally reached the bottom of the lake.     

But what Ye Qingyu saw ahead had completely astounded him.     

“The bottom of the lake… is not sediments and rock, it’s… it’s just too beautiful!”     

Ye Qingyu found it hard to believe what he had seen.    

He had seen innumerable strange lands before, but in front of him now was indeed an unprecedented spectacle. There were corals everywhere, some shaped like branches, some circular like flowers, and some marked with stripes. There were all kinds of shape and patterns, and each and every one of them was unique. Some were red like sandstone, some green as jade, some sky-blue, and some were bright as amber orange, emitting a bright luster. Although the color was different and there was nothing in common with each other, all were colourful and showy.    

This place, it was simply like a glass wonderland.     

Ye Qingyu couldn’t stop admiring the shapes and appearances of the corals, unable to calm his surprise.     

It should be said that he had been living on land all this time, and he didn’t know much about the underwater landscape. Moreover, the coral colonies before him were the product of the primitive natural environment that he had never heard or seen before.     

He slowly landed on the bed of the lake.     

“Go ahead, the place where the Immortal body is hidden is right in front of you,” the million-year-old soul reminded him.     

Ye Qingyu moved forward in the coral jungle.    

Walking forward in accordance with the directions of the million-year-old soul, sometimes he passed through the coral colonies and sometimes crossed the strange lake tunnel. There were many twists and turns like a maze. It was unknown how far he had walked, as though he was walking in a bizarre natural formation. In the end, even Ye Qingyu was a little confused with the direction he was heading. After all, it was the first time he was tens thousands of meters deep.      

“Elder, how much longer do we need to walk?”    

He asked impatiently.      

“It’s in front,” the million-year-old soul said.     

He walked a further ten kilometers ahead.      

Ye Qingyu came to a halt.    

This time, without the million-year-old soul telling him, he also knew that the destination was here.      

In the distance, less than one thousand meters away, there was vaguely an incredibly dazzling white light flashing. It seemed as though someone had taken the moon of the sky and brought it into the lake. It was absolutely different from elsewhere, glowing with a divine light.     

Ye Qingyu immediately moved toward the light source.     

The light was getting stronger, and Ye Qingyu’s vision also grew clearer.     

It turned out to be a group of towering mountain-like Crystal Palaces at the bottom of the lake.    

A group of palaces?     

Heavens, there were palace buildings at the bottom of the lake?       

This… could it have been created by a Fiendgod?     

Ye Qingyu was shaken again.     

His state of mind and mental state cultivation had already reached the extreme depths, but what he had seen today was really too unbelievable that he had almost lost mind again.    

The group of palaces ahead was shining a dazzling brilliance before because of the crystals.      

“Is this a divine palace too? It’s a spectacle.”     

The closer Ye Qingyu got, the more amazed he was.     

The tallest building of the crystal palaces was nearly tens of thousands of meters high. `As far as the eye could see, the palace top was hidden in the thick ink-like lake, and from afar, it almost looked like a huge crystal divine dragon, hovering in the bottom of the lake, facing skyward and was trying to leap toward the lake surface.      

Looking at the crystal walls of the palace, it was another spectacle. The surface was smooth as a mirror, and reflected the shadows in the water, including the shape of Ye Qingyu’s face, and even every strand of his hair was incredibly clear. The crystal, although extremely transparent, exuded an ancient and magnificent aura, like the luster of gems, like the tens of thousands of stars spread across the universe. With one glance it was obvious that the exquisite buildings were created through countless years of polishing and refinement.     

The atmosphere around the crystal palace was ancient and mysterious, and the shape, which was rarely seen, was definitely not formed by nature.     

Upon closer inspection, it looked like it was moved straight here using some remarkable divine power.     

After a moment of observation, Ye Qingyu seemed to have made a judgment.     

He slowly walked forward, stopping at the entrance to the door of the central palace.     

“Hey? There are words… it’s… …[Dragon Palace]?!”     

Ye Qingyu looked up at the crystal plaque on the gate, which was engraved with the word [Dragon Palace] in the writing of the God and Demon Age.    

[Dragon Palace]?     

Could this palace be connected to the Divine Dragon Race of the God and Demon Age?    

“Hurry go in, the Immortal body is in there, it is dangerous here, listen to my guidance, and you must not be the least bit careless.” The voice of the million-year-old soul carried a hint of urgency, but more of seriousness.     

Ye Qingyu nodded and walked towards the half-hidden crystal gate.     

It was only after stepping into the passageway of the entrance to the palace that he had understood why elder had reminded him    

He had only walked about ten steps when he encountered a strange formation.     

Ye Qingyu was nearly entangled in three separate ancient formations along the way.      

Fortunately the million-year-old soul had reminded him and he managed to evade and did not touch the mechanism of the final formation.    

It was only then that he realized that in the [Dragon Palace] there were incredibly bizarre protection and prohibition formations everywhere. Each formation could instantly kill experts of the Great Saint realm, and each formation was attached to another formation. One trap was followed by another trap, and one mechanism hid another mechanism. There were dangers at every step.     

“This is [Dragon Palace] seems more like the land of death!”     

Walking along the passageway, Ye Qingyu passed through more than ten great dangers with difficulty, and it was only then that he came to a hall and carefully released his divine sense, confirming that there was no other offensive formation. He could finally relax little, carefully looking around.     

The palace was hundreds of meters wide, dozens of meters high, and the outline seemed to be shaped like an inverted semi-curved crystal barrier. In the main hall stood dozens of hanging crystal pillars, with the thickest one about four or five people in width. The surface was smooth and clear, as though it had been formed by the flow of water, and together with the reflection of the soft light, it resembled the brilliance of the bright moon, magnificent and beautiful.
