Chapter 954 - 940: Bone Spirit Flower

Listening to Wei Jinmo’s words, Su Muyao’s heart skipped a beat, feeling a bit anxious.

"Can we take a look?"

Su Muyao was worried about the Dragon Beastmen.

Even if there were only ruins, she wanted to find some traces.

"Of course, wherever my wife wants to go, I will take her."

Wei Jinmo returned to his refined and perfect demeanor as he spoke.

All the emotions that had been stirred were suppressed by him.

Su Muyao nodded and said, "Then let’s eat first, and after the meal, we’ll go take a look at that place."

It was still midday, there was enough time.

"Okay."

After eating dumplings and drinking dumpling soup, Su Muyao’s stomach felt warm and comfortable.

Wei Jinmo also treasured the dumplings, finding them the best food he’d ever tasted.

There were some leftovers, and Wei Jinmo felt it would be a waste not to eat them.

Food prepared by his wife shouldn’t be wasted.

Su Muyao said, "If you can’t finish it, it’s okay, I made extra on purpose. These can be fried in oil for the next meal, they’ll taste good too."

"Alright."

After cleaning up, Wei Jinmo held Su Muyao’s hand and took her into the sea.

In the water, Wei Jinmo transformed into his true form, with a gentle flick of his tail, the sea seemed to part for him.

Su Muyao found his tail beautiful.

Wherever Wei Jinmo passed, all the Beastmen in the sea would respectfully make way and bow.

Soon, under Wei Jinmo’s guidance, they arrived at the Heavenly Heart Sea.

It felt like a pure land under the sea, resembling a spring eye, with water continuously gushing out.

Su Muyao remarked, "This looks like a spring eye."

Wei Jinmo explained, "After arriving here, some inherited memories surfaced in my mind. Heavenly Heart Sea used to be the Primordial Spring Eye of the Hongmeng Sea, where the first thread of Original Sea Water was born; it’s the source of all Water Element Spiritual Energy in the world."

"This spring eye is vital for the Hongmeng Sea, maintaining the balance of the sea’s water and possessing the energy to bring rain."

As Su Muyao looked at the spring eye, she felt as if she were witnessing starlight.

There seemed to be some profound Secret Technique hidden within.

At this moment, a voice in Su Muyao’s mind from the system said, "Host, this place is extremely important, and no spring eye from any sea should be destroyed."

"The Dragon Clan likely resides in such a place, living within these spring eyes grants them the natural ability to bring rain."

"Should anything happen to the spring eye, the sea water of the Hongmeng Sea would be affected."

"Under no circumstances should the Demon Beasts discover this place."

Su Muyao could feel a summoning power within, shaking her Heart String.

She thought of something and asked, "Can others discover this place?"

"Or can the Demon Beasts find this place?"

Wei Jinmo shook his head, "They can’t. I only found this place because of inherited memories."

"The Demon Beasts haven’t discovered this place yet."

"But Demon Beasts continuously appear within the Hongmeng Sea, seeming persistent in their search for this location."

"Previously, they intentionally provoked my Heart Demon, trying to control me to learn some secrets about the Hongmeng Sea from me."

Only through coming here did he receive the sea’s gifts, gaining the Power of the Sea and the Inheritance Power that informed him of this place.

As Su Muyao listened, the Dragon Race Key around her neck suddenly glowed.

This light resonated with the energy in the spring eye.

Su Muyao followed this summoning power forward.

Soon, she seemed guided, hearing a voice,

A distant and vast voice, like the melody of an Ancient Zither, reaching her across time and space.

"Place the Dragon Race Key at the keyhole, and it will guide the way back..."

Su Muyao felt ethereal.

Involuntarily, she took the Dragon Race Key and placed it on a spot above the spring eye.

Soon, a blue door slowly emerged.

Seeing the door, Wei Jinmo was shaken, "This... This is the legendary Hongmeng Ruins Gate of the Hongmeng Sea."

"It harbors the greatest secrets of the Hongmeng Sea."

The inherited memories in Wei Jinmo’s mind told him this.

It needed the Dragon Race Key to open this place.

Seeing the suddenly appearing door, Su Muyao’s heartbeat quickened.

She felt she was nearing some secret.

Once the Dragon Race Key opened the door, a vortex appeared, pulling Su Muyao and Wei Jinmo inside.

The door vanished as if it had never existed.

Inside, Su Muyao seemed affected by a force, feeling dizzy, but when she steadied herself, she saw a scene of devastation and desolation.

It appeared to be a long-buried, abandoned palace ruin.

Broken jade pillars leaned, ornately carved palace walls were cracked and weathered, the once grand hall mostly collapsed, glass floors dust-laden, covered with deep green seaweed and scattered corals.

As if the splendid, magnificent buildings of the past had been ravaged by time, leaving only silent, broken walls and ruins.

The ruins exuded endless desolation and bleakness.

A force kept the seawater from entering these ruins.

Seeing everything, Wei Jinmo’s expression changed, "This... is the Dragon Palace Ruins."

The broken pillars bore dragon patterns.

Without guessing, Wei Jinmo knew this was once the Dragon Palace.

Su Muyao’s Heart String quivered slightly, "To think there’s really a Dragon Palace here."

It didn’t resemble her dreams where the Dragon Palace was grand and intact, unlike what she saw before her.

"What power could have caused such a scene?"

Just gazing upon the abandoned structure, Su Muyao felt an indescribable sadness and heaviness in her heart.

"I wonder where those Dragon Beastmen went."

As Su Muyao murmured these words, the Dragon Race Key floated forward.

Following the glow, she came upon many Dragon Beastman skeletons within the ruins.

Who knows how long these bones had lain here, seemingly covered by seabed sands and winds.

Many flowers grew upon them.

"What is this?"

Su Muyao had once observed flowers growing on Dragon Bones, the Black Xuan Bone Spirit Flower.

These were extremely important spiritual treasure medicinal materials.

But the flowers here weren’t black; they were white and differed slightly from the Black Xuan Bone Spirit Flower.

Despite the differences, they were very similar.

Looking at these flowers and bones, Su Muyao felt her chest tighten, murmuring, "Is this also a Bone Spirit Flower? I know it’s a Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasure Herb with many magical effects."

Wei Jinmo gravely said, "These flowers are unlike the Black Xuan Bone Spirit Flower; they are the Hongmeng Ruins Bone Spirit Flower, bearing the souls of the Dragon Beastmen."

Hearing this, Su Muyao’s heart stirred, "Since their souls remain, could they possibly be revived?"

Wei Jinmo shook his head, "I’m unsure; the Dragon Beastmen’s ability and bloodline are unique, possessing Great Dao Fortune, not easily extinguished."

"They have Secret Techniques to preserve souls, but I don’t know how to revive them."

"These flowers exist because of the Primordial Power here, as well as being in the Hongmeng Sea Spring Eye Land, nurturing their souls, which is why their souls can exist in this floral form."

"This place mustn’t be discovered or destroyed by others."
