Liu Ji chuckled and said, "Who's friends with you? It's obvious that she has recovered long ago. However, you've been hiding it from me for the past few days. You should have left the Neptune Region long ago, but you still followed me into the Three Lives Secret Realm. Don't think that I don't know that you've been working for the Human Race from the beginning to the end. During our transaction, you did something that betrayed me. You should pay the price."
For her to threaten Chen Xingyao like this at this time, it could be assumed that she was not only targeting Chen Xingyao, but also targeting Long Chen who was behind him. Now that they were in the core area of the Three Lives Secret Realm, this conflict would directly determine whether the Sea God Emperor could make up his mind to kill Long Chen.
The smell of gunpowder was getting stronger and stronger. At this moment, the mirror-like ground shook again. It was obvious that something new was about to happen.
The place where the change occurred was a hundred meters away from the front of the tunnel. A large area had collapsed, and below it was an endless void. It was pitch-black. At this moment, in the darkness of the void, something gradually emerged.
At this moment, everyone temporarily put aside their conflict and focused their attention on the thing that was emerging. It turned out to be an ice sculpture.
In the blink of an eye, the ice sculpture emerged from the mirror-like surface and the mirror-like surface returned to normal.
"This is …"
That ice sculpture turned out to be a divine dragon that seemed to be soaring above the Nine Heavens.
This was a divine dragon that Long Chen had never seen before. In terms of temperament, power, dragon might, and bloodline level, this divine dragon was obviously the best. Although it was just an ice sculpture, Long Chen could sense that this divine dragon might even be at the level of the Ancestral Dragon.
This was a very special divine dragon.
Its body was similar to that of an ordinary divine dragon, but it was more angular, like steel. Ordinary divine dragons had two horns, but this divine dragon had a sharp horn on its forehead. Unlike other dragon horns, this sharp horn was actually a divine sword.
That's right, it looked exactly like the blade of a sword.
The long sword seemed to be the core of this divine dragon. Although it was just an ice sculpture, there was still a terrifying murderous aura bursting out from the long sword. It was definitely an ancient divine sword that could pierce through heaven and earth and crush the untainted universe.
But that was only part of it.
His dragon scales were complex and thick, like shields. Each dragon scale and each shield had a different pattern on them, but each one of them was something that even the best Dao treasures could not compare to.
His dragon claw didn't look like a claw, but completely looked like a blade. It was the sharpest curved blade, sharp and sinister, a peerless killing weapon.
His dragon teeth were not like teeth, but sword points, the sharpest part of the blade. The entire row of sword points combined showed a terrifying biting force.
His dragon tail was a long spear. It was sharp, slender, and densely packed with spikes. The tip of the spear was the sharpest, just like the longsword between his brows, which was as frightening as it was.
It was just an ice sculpture, and even Lingxi could destroy it. However, the pressure emitted by this ice sculpture made even the Sea God Sovereign not dare to breathe for a moment. The others were even more intimidated.
A dragon sculpture had actually appeared in the Three Lives Secret Realm.
Moreover, it was such a mighty and domineering divine dragon, as terrifying as an emperor. This divine dragon was more like a ruler, different from the Ancient Blood Spiritual Dragon, the space-time traveler of the Void Cosmic Dragon, and the creator of the Tai Chi Living Dragon.
The sword was the dragon's horn, the dragon scales were the shield, the saber was the dragon's claw, and the spear was the dragon's tail.
This divine dragon, no matter how one looked at it, was tough, domineering, and perfect.
Everyone was so shocked by the majesty of this divine dragon that they even forgot about everything else.
However, the crowd soon discovered something else on the Divine Dragon Ice Sculpture.
There was another ice sculpture below him, but it was not as mighty as the divine dragon ice sculpture. It was a long snake, coiled around one of the dragon's claws, heading straight for the dragon's head. Its head was pressed tightly against the dragon's head.
Compared to the mighty divine dragon, this little snake was not eye-catching at all. So much so that no one had noticed it at first. Even if they had seen it, it would have been difficult to pay attention to it. However, it was precisely this little snake that made the mighty divine dragon seem a little different.
"What are these dragons and snakes?"
Everyone was puzzled.
"Liu Ji, why does this snake look a little similar to your Blue Devil Tribe?" Neptune Emperor noticed this.
Liu Ji seemed to be in a daze, but after hearing Neptune Emperor's words, she shook her head and said, "It's just a little similar, but there are tens of thousands of snake species. It's normal to look similar."
Neptune Emperor did not probe further.
However, Long Chen remembered that this Three Lives Secret Realm was opened by Liu Ji, so this little snake must be related to Liu Ji. Or it could be the ancestor of the Blue Devil Tribe during the era of the divine dragon. At that time, the demon race did exist, but it was very weak.
In that case, she must know something that no one else knew.
This would be the greatest thing she could rely on to obtain the most important thing. Now she was hiding it from Neptune Emperor.
"Their hearts are linked together."
Lingxi suddenly said.
Long Chen looked carefully and saw that there were ice threads coming out from the dragon's and snake's hearts, and then they were connected.
Those ice threads were completely inconspicuous at first.
But at this moment, everyone found a few golden words under the ice sculpture.
"Three Lives Love Thread, Dual Sword Amalgamation."
Clearly, this ice sculpture represented the love between the divine dragon and the little snake. Could the Three Lives Love Thread in the words be the ice threads that connected the two hearts?
The ice threads were only a part of the ice sculpture, and the Three Lives Love Thread should be something else.
As for the Dual Sword Amalgamation, it was hard to figure out what it meant.
Everyone was silently chanting the Three Lives Love Thread and then circled around the ice sculpture. They did not dare to touch the ice sculpture for now.
Finally, Neptune Emperor tried once, but before he could get close to the ice sculpture, he was bounced back by the power of the rules. There seemed to be an invisible controller here.
Only when they went around the ice sculpture did they see something new.
It was a door.
A door surrounded by Deity Heart Fire.
The door wasn't big, and looking inside, they could see that there seemed to be a city inside. It was a city formed by mirrors, and they could only see the tip of the iceberg for now.
But everyone was sure that this' Mirror City 'was the true end of the Three Lives Secret Realm.
The truly important place.
The ice sculpture in front of him might just be giving him a hint.
Long Chen did not know what the purpose of entering the Three Lives Secret Realm was, but now he finally understood. Clearly, the Three Lives God Stone and the Karma Sacred Stone were related, and the Three Lives God Stone and the little snake in the ice sculpture were also related to the Blue Devil Tribe. Now that a divine dragon had appeared in the Three Lives Secret Realm, if Long Chen's guess was right, it was the Divine Dao Heart Dragon of Virtue and Karma Dragon.
This was an Ancestral Dragon that controlled punishment. His appearance was like the dao he controlled, representing justice and the dao of emperors. He had knives, spears, swords and shields of punishment.
It was just an ice sculpture. Although it looked lifelike, it could not represent the real Ancestral Dragon. Perhaps the real Ancestral Dragon would definitely be many times more powerful than this ice sculpture.
But the most important thing now was to enter the City in the Mirror.
"Fate of Next Life, City in the Mirror."
The Deity Heart Fire formed six words under everyone's feet.
From the Sea of Previous Life, to the Stone of Present Life, and then to this Fate of Next Life.
The Sea God Emperor and Liu Ji looked at each other, then quickly passed through the Deity Heart Fire and entered the City in the Mirror. The Three Lives Secret Realm would not open for no reason. In the end, there must be a magical existence waiting for them.
"Are we going in?" Chen Xingyao asked.
Long Chen looked around, and his gaze finally landed on the ice sculpture.
"We only have one choice."
Because at this time, the entire mirror started to collapse, and the Empyrean God's Heart Fire appeared below. Obviously, if they didn't enter the city in the mirror, they would fall into the Empyrean God's Heart Fire like Emperor Xi Yao, be burned for a year, suffer for a year, and then turn into ashes.
No one could bear such a consequence.
Therefore, the four of them could only enter.
Long Chen looked back, and the ice sculpture had already disappeared into thin air.
But his Divine Dao Heart Refining Dragon must be waiting for him in the depths.
This time, it was very likely that he would be able to obtain the inheritance blood essence of the Divine Dao Heart Refining Dragon without using the Karma Sacred Stone. In other words, this was the only way to obtain the inheritance blood essence of the Divine Dao Heart Refining Dragon.
In the blink of an eye, the six of them entered the City in the Mirror.
They were in a city made up of mirrors. The ground, walls, and even the sky were filled with endless mirrors, filled with their mirror images. When they entered the city, because of the reflection of the mirror, they could be found on almost every mirror.
That scene was truly unbearable.
The City in the Mirror was densely packed with mirrors.
In front of them, there was only one path that led to the deepest part of the City in the Mirror. However, both sides of this path were filled with the Deity Heart Fire. The Deity Heart Fire was incomparably hot. Even if it didn't burn them, passing by them, even the Sea God Emperor wouldn't be able to last long.
However, the symbol on their palms still existed.
As long as a man and a woman held hands together and formed a light film, they would probably be able to pass through the path of the Deity Heart Fire and head towards the depths, reaching the final place.
When everyone entered, there was actually a white Deity Heart Fire burning on every mirror. The surrounding temperature rose once again, and in the mirror, each of them seemed to be burning.
The atmosphere between the six of them was strange.
At this time, the Sea God Emperor and Liu Ji didn't continue to advance. Instead, they turned back to look at Long Chen and the others. They planned to eliminate any obstacles and competitors before advancing.
From the moment they saw the ice sculpture, the Sea God Emperor and Liu Ji knew that there would definitely be something here that would allow them to dominate the Eternal Sacred Realm.
It would allow the Sea God Emperor to become an existence on par with Ling Huang.
