Chu Ci's question just now was not just a compliment to the woman in snow clothes, but also a real doubt in his heart.

He has lived in this mortal world for more than ten years, and as the young master of the General Mansion, he has definitely seen and heard more than most people, but the scene he just experienced has subverted his understanding of the world.

If there are immortals in the world, then the woman in front of me is definitely one of them.

"Senior, thank you for your help."

Chu Ci bowed to the woman solemnly.

The woman in front of him was his true savior. Without her, he would no longer exist in the world after today.

"Little guy, if you really want to thank your sister, how about you return your sister's Ice Mysterious Pearl to me?"

The woman in snow clothes had a faint smile.

Chu Ci solemnly said: "This bead belongs to my senior. I can't repay my life-saving kindness. How can I take away my senior's treasure? I just don't know how to take out this thing. Please let me know."

.”

Looking at the sincere and clear eyes of the young man in front of her, the woman in snow clothes nodded secretly.

"I know how to repay kindness, and I am a principled person, so it is not in vain that I save you." The woman looked at Chu Ci and smiled lightly: "The Ice Mysterious Pearl took the initiative to enter your body. I am afraid that it has recognized you as the master. If

If I insist on taking it by force, I'm afraid I have to kill you, but how can I kill the person I saved again?" The woman looked at Chu Ci and smiled lightly.

"But this treasure is very valuable at first glance. How can I keep it for myself?"

Chu Ci slowly shook his head.

"We are destined to meet you this time. There are countless people in this world, but there are only a few that I like, and you are one of them. I will give you the Ice Mysterious Pearl as a chance."

"Thank you for your kindness, senior." Chu Ci did not promise how he would repay him in the future.

Now, compared to the woman in front of him, what can he do to help her?

The only thing he can do is to grow up as quickly as possible. Only by becoming a truly strong man can he do all this.

"Chu Ci, in this world, you can only dominate your life and do what you want to do if you become strong enough. You were born extraordinary. How can such mundane things hinder your footsteps? I hope that one day

I can see your figure in a wider world."

The ethereal voice of the woman in snow clothes sounded.

"Thank you, senior, for your help this time." Chu Ci bowed deeply.

"Little one, I look forward to the day when you grow up, and we will meet again in the clouds someday."

Then, the woman's body in front of him began to look faintly unreal.

"Senior, can you tell me your name?"

"Emperor Nine Immortals"

An ethereal voice sounded in Chu Ci's mind.

"Emperor Nine Immortals." Chu Ci murmured.

"One day, I will definitely stand in front of you with enough strength."

Chu Ci looked at the place where the woman disappeared and said softly, his eyes full of determination.

At this time, Chu Ci would not have thought of the influence that the name Emperor Nine Immortals had on the younger generation of monsters in the distant Central Continent.

"Chu Ci, I look forward to meeting you next time."

Above the clouds, there was a woman in snow clothes standing in the sky, followed by a woman wearing a bamboo hat. Perhaps she didn't even know it, but when Chu Ci asked her name, she said it without hesitation.

"Miss, did you really give the Ice Mysterious Pearl to that boy? Isn't it because of the Ice Mysterious Pearl that you came to this wasteland this time? Just kill a mortal boy."

There was doubt and confusion in the woman's eyes.

The woman shook her head with a smile on her face and said crisply: "Senior's feelings are not bad, Chu Ci. I wonder if you and I will still be able to shout out that senior when we meet again in the future."

She looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old. Her delicate face and dreamlike beauty revealed a childlike tenderness.

If Chu Ci were standing here at this moment, she would definitely not believe that the woman who saved her was the girl in front of her.

After the woman disappeared, Chu Ci slowly raised his head and looked at the sky above his head.

"The Immortal caressed my head, and my hair was tied, so I could live forever."

Chu Ci held the snow-clad woman's cloak in his arms and slowly walked towards the general's mansion.

Now he is alone, and the former general's mansion has long become dilapidated.

It took a whole day and night for Chu Ci to bury the corpses of his former clansmen in the back hill of the General's Mansion.

In the main hall of the General's Mansion, Chu Ci felt the power brought by the Ice Spirit Pearl in his body. Different from the violent power in his body before, it appeared to be extremely gentle and would not cause harm to his body.

"Is this power that does not belong to mortals? It is really scary, but how can I use this power to become stronger?"

Chu Ci felt the power in his body and fell into deep thought.

Emperor Jiuxian didn't tell Chu Ci too much before leaving, because the land where Chu Ci was located was too desolate.

Not to mention the world she is in, just walking out of this world and reaching the higher realm of the dynasty has a well-known cultivation method.

The path of a strong man needs to be explored step by step.

In this world where the strong are respected, the weak want to change their own destiny. Only by practicing Taoism and becoming the supreme strong can they control their own destiny and even the destiny of others.

In this world, dynasties and empires stand, and there are countless powerful sects and families.

For Emperor Jiuxian, Chu Ci's path to Taoism can truly begin only when he walks out of this desolate land, and he needs to find the answer to all of this by himself.

Nowadays, due to the integration of the Ice Mysterious Pearl and the mysterious power in his body that is difficult to control, Chu Ci's own strength has far exceeded the scope of mortals.

Chu Ci, who was deep in thought, suddenly remembered what the old patriarch Chu Yuan said to him before he died.

There is a secret room behind the main seat of the General's Mansion, which contains something crucial to him. Turn the main seat towards the north to open the secret door at the back.

As Chu Ci turned, a dull sound came from behind, and a thick stone door opened on the wall.

Chu Ci walked in. The space in the darkroom was not large, only the size of an ordinary house.

There is a luminous pearl inside, which brightens up the originally dark dark room.

There are several wooden shelves in the dark room, and there are several swords hanging on the wooden shelf at the front, each of them shining with a sharp cold light.

On the second wooden shelf are several military deployment orders.

There is only one brocade box on the last wooden shelf.

Chu Ci walked forward slowly and opened the brocade box at the end. Inside, there was only a jade pendant engraved with the word "Chu". There were many complex symbols engraved on it, and the jade pendant was only half of it.

Chu Ci picked up the jade pendant, slowly held it in his hand, and looked at it carefully.

Suddenly, Chu Ci felt a warmth coming from his hand.

The half of the jade pendant actually emitted a faint golden light, sucking his blood from the bottom.

Seeing this scene, Chu Ci wanted to throw the jade pendant out of his hand, but found that the jade pendant was tightly attached to Chu Ci's palm.

At this moment, a flash of red light appeared in the jade pendant and rushed toward Chu Ci's eyebrows so fast that people couldn't react in time.

After the red light rushed into Chu Ci's eyebrows, he fell into a coma, but that consciousness was actually taken to another place, which was a vast starry sky surrounded by countless large and small stars.

"Am I already dead? Where is this place?"

Chu Ci was shocked when he saw everything in front of him.

Suddenly, a blood-red hand covering the sky tore through the sky, the space shattered wherever it passed, and the stars exploded.

At this moment, Chu Ci found a figure standing not far from him.

Wearing a blue-black imperial robe, he stood there casually with his hands behind his back, but he seemed to be integrated with the entire world, and the laws of the great avenue resonated with it.

Chu Ci looked at the figure. Although he was close, he could not see the man's face clearly.

The man slowly turned around and looked at Chu Ci. Sensing the man's gaze, Chu Ci was shocked. With just one glance, he felt a suffocating feeling.

"It seems that it has chosen you after all."

There was a hint of complexity in the man's tone.

"it?"

Hearing the man's words, Chu Ci was filled with doubts.

"Go on, since the Chaos Tower has chosen you, you are no longer qualified to be ordinary. When you become strong enough, you will know everything. You are not qualified to know all this now."

As the middle-aged man's voice disappeared, Chu Ci's consciousness returned to reality.

What Chu Ci didn't know was that when his consciousness returned, a golden mark appeared between his eyebrows, and it dissipated after a moment.

After Chu Ci opened his eyes, he began to think secretly, where did the scene he just saw come from, and what did the mysterious man mean by what he said.

"Forget it, let's forget about it for now."

What he hopes most now is to improve his strength as soon as possible and get out of this desolate land. Only by finding a suitable cultivation method can he become stronger.

At this moment, a small dark tower appeared in his mind. The tower had six floors. There were many runes flowing on each floor, but the runes in some places looked extremely dim.

"What on earth is this tower?"
