187: Chapter 186 Former Members of the Imperial Court, Divine Wing King
"To find soul-returning grass, we need clues, right? Maybe they have some over there."
Xing Mu didn't care at all.
After saying this, without waiting for Ye Xiu's answer, she strode off in one direction.
The Domain churned.
She was very fast, and in an instant, she had vanished.
Ye Xiu sighed in his heart.
This crazy girl was truly unreliable; it seemed she was accompanying him to find medicinal herbs, but in reality, she was just out on a spring outing.
He shook his head slightly.
The immortal Qi within his body surged as he accelerated to catch up.
There was no other way now.
He could only follow this crazy girl; otherwise, by himself, it would take forever to find the soul-returning grass.
Moreover, even if it were found, Xing Mu would need to consume it herself.
"Hey, speed up, or when will we ever get there?" Seeing Ye Xiu catch up, Xing Mu spoke with some dissatisfaction, urging him on.
"What's the rush..."
Ye Xiu was somewhat speechless; even while chasing at full speed, he could only barely keep up.
The gap in their strength was not just a little bit.
"You're the one in a rush; this princess is just trying to help you."
Ye Xiu didn't bother to argue anymore.
He followed Xing Mu ahead, rapidly traversing through the Sea of Domains.
Three months later.
Xing Mu, who had looked bored, suddenly showed a slight smile.
"Oh? This birdman's vitality is quite tenacious; he actually still exists within this Sea of Domains."
"A branch of the God Race? An angel?"
Ye Xiu looked toward a nearby Domain where there was a massive amount of life Qi; that aura was eighty percent similar to the God Race among the Myriad Races.
"Yes, back then King Shenyi followed this princess to the Domain. Unfortunately... he died in battle, but this princess buried him in a Rebirth Pool. After endless ages, he has indeed revived."
"There is such a divine object?"
"The wonders within the Sea of Domains are far more brilliant than you can imagine. Even the legends of [Taboo Supreme] exist; these things are nothing."
During their conversation,
The two had already entered a Domain.
With mountains, rivers, lands, seas, and the sky, this Domain was just like the Heavens and Myriad Realms—an independent Small World.
"King Shenyi, why haven't you come out to greet this princess?"
Xing Mu's words vibrated through the firmament, and the entire world seemed to pause at this moment.
As her words fell,
A middle-aged man with wings on his back instantly appeared before the two of them.
He had a square face with a hint of world-weariness, and his silver armor, which covered his entire body, was engraved with the exclusive emblem of the Imperial Court.
The moment King Shenyi saw Xing Mu, he immediately knelt on one knee.
He said respectfully, "Left Wing Army of the Imperial Court greets Venerable Mu."
"Not bad, you already have the strength of the Monarch Realm. It seems this Sea of Domains is indeed more suitable for a Cultivator to survive in. No wonder the Human Emperor wanted to migrate the Imperial Court into the Sea of Domains."
Xing Mu nodded.
She spoke again, "This princess is only passing through. Have you seen any soul-returning grass?"
"In response to Your Highness, there is no soul-returning grass within these nearby hundred thousand Domains. However, some years ago when I went to the Southern Region, I heard of such a medicinal herb."
"Southern Region?"
Xing Mu frowned slightly.
The Southern Region was the territory of the Ancient Race. The powers there had already achieved a great unification back in the ancient era.
There were three of the most ancient Immortal Venerables presiding over it.
Even the Human Emperor
Would not easily set foot in the Southern Region.
Looking at the kneeling King Shenyi, Xing Mu pondered for a moment.
Then she continued to ask, "Is there no news of soul-returning grass in the Eastern Region?"
"This, I do not know. If Your Highness requires it, I am willing to slay a Supreme Realm expert for Your Highness to cultivate it directly." King Shenyi's words were forceful and resonant, not feeling the weight of his words at all.
A Supreme Realm expert.
In the Main World, they were almost at the very top of the pyramid.
How could they be killed just by saying so?
"No need. The time to cultivate soul-returning grass is too long, and this princess has no time to wait."
Xing Mu looked toward the south, and within her pair of double pupils, several images flickered.
In the images,
Were worlds that looked like immortal kingdoms.
After a long while,
She spoke again: "This place is an area governed by the Martial Venerable. Since you have revived, there is no need to guard this place anymore. Take your people and return to the Main World. If the Human Emperor asks, tell him directly that it is this princess's wish."
"I obey the decree."
King Shenyi cupped his fists to accept the order and vanished immediately.
"Ye Xiu, do you want to do something big?"
"What do you mean?"
Ye Xiu suddenly had a bad feeling.
He felt that the current Xing Mu was already lawless; even in the Sea of Domains, she didn't seem to have many scruples.
"Go to the Southern Region and snatch some treasures."
"Are you sure about this?"
"No. With this princess's current strength, I probably can't confront three Peak Venerable positions. Moreover, those three are the most ancient Immortal Venerables of the Immortal Realm. It's rumored that the era they attained the Dao was not too far from the legends of the Heavenly Emperor. They might have even had an audience with the Heavenly Emperor."
Xing Mu showed a look of anticipation.
She seemed to really intend to go to the Southern Region to snatch treasures.
Had an audience with the Heavenly Emperor!
A flash of surprise appeared in Ye Xiu's eyes.
The Heavenly Emperor of the Immortal Realm should be a figure on the same level as the Lord of Guixu.
In terms of strength, he was definitely an existence who had reached the level of a [Taboo Emperor].
After a few seconds of silence,
Ye Xiu still shook his head and rejected the proposal.
The Southern Region was too dangerous.
The Xing Mu before him was not the Star Emperor.
Her strength was likely at an eighty percent discount, or even sixty percent.
If he went with her to plunder the Southern Region, he would most likely end up dead there.
"Tch... if you won't go, then forget it. We'll just look for it slowly."
Xing Mu muttered dissatisfiedly, and then she vanished from this Domain.
Sigh...
Ye Xiu let out a long sigh.
He was now starting to doubt whether awakening Ji Xingyue's consciousness actually required the so-called soul-returning grass.
It might all be something this crazy girl intentionally cooked up.
