Chapter 2
Xiao Yin, possessing a naturally kind disposition, had just acquired the skill of playing the Ziyu Chahong. He went to the prison to use his flute music to dispel the soul-binding poison. At the same time, due to being the Holy Body of Sound, he had the ability to remember everything at a glance, and had effortlessly mastered the essence of the techniques from the noble families.
Xiao Yin, unexpectedly impressed by the intelligence of the person before him, felt a sense of admiration and thus recounted the matter of how Die Er had brought him here
The butterfly nodded, her gesture exceptionally adorable. Xiao Yin followed closely behind the butterfly, weaving left and right, gradually arriving at the back courtyard of the Holy Maiden's Heavenly City. With the butterfly's assistance, Xiao Yin entered a pitch-black cave, and after an indeterminate amount of time, suddenly the surroundings brightened, with countless jewels shimmering all around.
Xiao Yin felt a wave of warmth surge to his head: "Senior, are you also the Holy Body of Sound?" At that moment, he felt a warm and familiar sensation wash over him
The voice revealed immense astonishment: "You inadvertently trespassed into the prison of the Holy Maiden's Heavenly City? Is it truly possible to pass through the Holy Maiden's Heavenly City without obstruction?"
After arriving at the Holy Maiden's Celestial City for several days, he gradually became familiar with his surroundings, feeling as if he were in a paradise. At that moment, he suddenly noticed a butterfly trembling at the end of the garden. By this time, he had begun to communicate with some creatures on a deeper level and sensed that the butterfly seemed to be injured. He quickly took out a healing potion from the storage ring given to him by the lord of the Holy Maiden's Celestial City and applied it to the butterfly.
It is said to be for a wager... Moreover, the queen of the Dragon Heaven Kingdom has been here for several years now
Xiao Yin and Yi Zheng said: "How can I assist my senior with the library?"
Xiao Yin was surprised to find that the legendary figures were actually gathered in the prison of the Holy Maiden's Heavenly City. Liu Fengxu smiled slightly and said, "Not just me, but here are the key figures from the major families of the Dragon Heaven Continent. Elder Nangong Hong of the Nangong family, Sect Master Huangfu Duan of the Huangfu family, Guest Elder Mo Lei of the Dongfang family, Sect Master Xiyao Jun of the Xiyao family, Elder Beiming Sang of the Beiming family, the leader of the Earth Sect, Di Yun, as well as the bard Lan Qiao and the Archmage Li Hencao. They are all renowned throughout the world..."
Xiao Yin and Yi Zheng: "Are you asking me to follow you?"
At this moment, sounds gradually emerged from the surrounding courtyard: "I, Huangfu Duan, the head of the Huangfu family, will, at the appropriate time, pass on to you the various extraordinary techniques of the Huangfu family, including the mysterious formations and alchemy..."
Liu Fengxu smiled faintly, her voice carrying an indescribable trust: "Because I am also one of the sacred beings of sound, I can sense the sincerity in your voice"
Eight years have passed in the blink of an eye
Magic holds a significant position in the Dragon Sky Continent. When Liu Fengxu encounters this person, who is also a "magical entity," he immediately feels a sense of kinship. He does not hold back and shares with Xiao Yinhui all his research on martial arts, including the secrets of how to achieve the greatest strength and the fastest speed.
The Nangong family is the foremost among the six great families, possessing the two supreme arts of Longshi and Lingkongxu. The Huangfu family is renowned for its unique techniques such as the Qimen formations and alchemy, which are unparalleled and hold a prestigious reputation. Additionally, there are the Eastern family’s fighting spirit, the Xiyao family’s exquisite swordsmanship, the Beiming family’s mysterious ice techniques, the Liufeng family’s Liufeng movement technique, and the bards' mastery of the arts. Mastering just one of these would bring fame across the Longtian Continent. If others were to learn that Xiao Yin is proficient in so many disciplines, it would truly drive the continent into a frenzy.
Xiao Yin and Wei Wei smiled lightly. Since encountering the dragon, he had gradually become calm and did not respond at that moment. Unexpectedly, the voice pondered for a moment and suddenly exclaimed excitedly: "Indeed. From the sound of your footsteps, you must be a person of the Sacred Body of Sound. No wonder the Holy Maiden and the Lord of Tiancheng welcomed you here. However, this prison is extremely secretive; how did you come to know of it?"
Liu Fengxu began learning martial arts at the age of 3 and mastered advanced techniques by the age of 5. Due to his physical constitution, he was unable to grasp even a hint of magic; however, he excelled in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. By the age of 15, he had already become a Holy Dragon Warrior
Xiao Yin and Bu You asked: "But Senior Liu Feng, with your cultivation, how can this guest room possibly confine you?"
The warriors of the Dragon Heaven Continent are classified as low-level, mid-level, and high-level, followed by the ranks of Magic Warrior and Holy Dragon Warrior. The ranks of mages are divided into: low-level, mid-level, high-level, Archmage, and Holy Archmage. Only legendary figures possess the cultivation of Holy Archmage and Holy Dragon Warrior.
The elder of the Nangong family is willing to pass on the two supreme arts of Long Shi and Ling Kong Xu
Xiao Yin and Long Ninglan held hands and gently leaped into the air above the Holy Maiden's Heavenly City, where the library had already come to a stop in the garden. Wherever Long Ninglan passed, the flowers would bloom one after another, stunningly beautiful to the extreme
Then the voice said with admiration: "Good-hearted child!" After a pause, the voice continued: "Do you know who I am?" He pondered for a moment and then slowly said: "My name is Liu Fengxu"
The fragrance of flowers and the graceful shadows await the combing of hair. The delicate moonlight smiles gently, with warm little lips, as she naturally approaches from the water.
However, although he was born as the "Saint Body of Sound," every advantage comes with its drawbacks. He is also a "Magical Void Body," much like the willow catkins, unable to grasp even a hint of magic. Nevertheless, Xiao Yin, with his naturally optimistic disposition, did not mind and instead provoked a trapped sorcerer to the point of fuming and glaring.
Xiao Yin and Xin Xia were astonished when suddenly a lovely girl approached them, dressed in a radiant outfit, with a cherry-like smile that was indescribably beautiful. The remarkable figure, Nangong Yin, once composed a poem that perfectly described this girl:
The butterfly, having received such grace, seemed to be overwhelmed with gratitude, fluttering gracefully into the air as if waving goodbye to Xiao Yin.
Xiao Yinhé was taken aback; each of these pearls must be worth a fortune, yet they were merely used as decorations here. What he observed included artificial hills and flowing water, surrounded by more than ten courtyards, each containing a side room. The doors of these rooms were made of high-quality willow wood, exuding an extreme sense of antiquity. As Xiao Yinhé attempted to enter one of the courtyards, a voice suddenly came from the side room: "Who is it?" The voice was extremely cold.
Xiao Yinhe and Yi Zheng were taken aback, feeling that the voice carried an irresistible authority. Xiao Yinhe involuntarily said: "I am Xiao Yinhe, and I have inadvertently trespassed into this place."
Xiao Yin and Xin were taken aback; Liu Fengxu was indeed one of the most renowned figures on Longtian Continent, the head of the Liu Feng family and one of the three great Saint Dragon Warriors
Use your sacred body of sound to play the flute, mastering the Purple Jade and Crimson from the Soul-Entrancing Melody. Each day, play for me during a tea time, and within a year or two, I will likely be able to restore half of my true essence. Not only for myself, but this melody can also help everyone here regain a bit of their power. He seemed to see through Xiao Yinhao's thoughts: "Rest assured, unless I can restore over fifty percent of my power, I will have no means to deal with this prison. I will not harm the Holy Maiden and the Lord of the Heavenly City. At the same time, I can also pass on my lifelong cultivation to you." Not only for myself, but this melody can also help everyone here regain a bit of their power. He seemed to see through Xiao Yinhao's thoughts: "Rest assured, unless I can restore over fifty percent of my power, I will have no means to deal with this prison. I will not harm the Holy Maiden and the Lord of the Heavenly City. At the same time, I can also pass on my lifelong cultivation to you."
Xiao Yin murmured, "The Soul-Entrancing Poison?" He had heard that the Soul-Entrancing Poison was known as the deadliest poison of all time; if one were to be afflicted by it, all their martial prowess would be lost. At this moment, he could not help but let out a soft sigh
The girl smiled sweetly and obediently walked up to Xiao Yinhé, suddenly giving him a kiss on the cheek: "Hello, Brother Xiao He." She did not mind at all that Xiao Yinhé was wearing tattered clothes.
Xiao Yin and Yi Jing: "May I ask, Senior Liu Feng, why did the Holy Maiden of Tiancheng imprison you?"
In the elegant garden, Xiao Yin gently scoops up the flowers. The moonlight casts a delicate glow on his face, exceptionally soft. At this moment, he is wearing a purple cloak uniquely crafted by the Holy Maiden of Heavenly City, making him appear refined and handsome
Xiao Yin said: "But... esteemed seniors, what if I am someone sent by the Holy Maiden of Tiancheng to steal the ultimate skills?"
Long Ninglan smiled slightly at the book and said, "Xiang'er, this is Xiao He, you should call him Brother Xiao He."
Xiao Yin and Bu You were exceptionally moved, feeling a sense of compassion for the girl before them in an instant
Xiao Yin did not expect that the next day, Long Ninglan would teach him the "Soul-Entrancing Melody": "The Soul-Entrancing Melody is divided into three parts: Purple Jade Blossoms, Heart-Dazzling Powder, and Celestial Flight Melody. Purple Jade Blossoms is used for calming the mind, Heart-Dazzling Powder is for enchanting emotions, allowing the other party to be temporarily unable to control themselves, while Celestial Flight Melody enables anyone to experience the sublimation of life. Celestial Flight Melody can only be understood in its true essence through fortuitous circumstances."
Half a month ago, I barely fought with the Purple Dragon and used the intoxicating fragrance of Qianruan Suxiang to mesmerize it, ultimately obtaining the Purple Dragon's inner elixir. Coupled with the original millennium jade milk and the blood of the snow jade rabbit, I intended to refine it into the sacred product, Lutan Ke. However, having lost too much blood, I awoke to find myself in prison; I originally planned to break out of the chamber, but unexpectedly, I had already been afflicted by the Soul-Entrancing Poison within me
From the gentle sighs of the willow breeze, one senses the kindness of Xiao Yin and her nature. At this moment, she speaks softly: "Are you willing to help me?"
The Holy Maiden's Celestial City is one of the four mysterious places on the Dragon Heaven Continent, situated atop the steep slopes of the Changhong Mountain in the East Sea. It is surrounded by a barrier of magical protection, rendering it invisible to outsiders throughout the year. Upon entering the magical barrier, the Holy Maiden's Celestial City appears to float in the air, resembling a cloud. The city is constructed of gold and jade, radiating brilliance and exuding unparalleled luxury. To the untrained eye, it would not be unusual to mistake it for a mirage. The world knows only that the Holy Maiden's Celestial City prohibits the entry of men, and its inhabitants, each as beautiful as celestial beings and possessing extraordinary martial skills, are the subject of great envy.
