Chapter 425 Mirage

Seemingly worried that Lin Fei wouldn't leave, Yuan Yi continued, "This monster has special abilities. Apart from my techniques having a restraining effect on it, even your Xuanyuan Sword can't inflict fatal damage on it. You're wasting your time here. Don't worry about me, just leave!"

Although it seems that Yuanyi is still trapped by the peach tree demon and cannot escape for the time being, it is clear that while the peach tree demon can trap Yuanyi, it does not have a good way to get rid of him.

Furthermore, given the Azure Emperor's Longevity Technique's ability to restrain the Peach Tree Demon, it's only a matter of time before Yuan Yi defeats it.

Lin Fei replied, "Then please be careful, Master. I'll take my leave now!"

After saying that, Lin Fei turned and left the Peach Garden.

Within this Peach Garden, the immortal peaches that even the ancient powerful beings coveted are long gone. All that remains are scattered human heads and the peach tree demon, now transformed into its current form. To linger here any longer would only be a waste of time.

……

After leaving the Peach Garden, Lin Fei's mood became somewhat heavy. He hadn't expected that a Grandmaster of the Celestial level like Du Qingmu would lose his life here.

It seems that this ancient celestial court ruins are indeed fraught with danger. Even a grandmaster of the Celestial Realm level could lose his life if he is not careful.

Lin Fei became even more cautious and continued his journey towards the Heavenly Palace above.

……

After leaving the eleventh Heaven Palace—the Peach Palace—Lin Fei continued upwards. Having learned from his previous experience in the Peach Palace, this time, no matter what unusual scenes he encountered, Lin Fei did not stop but continued to ascend.

His goal was the top-level Thirty-Three Heavenly Palace.

The danger within these ancient celestial ruins seems to be limited to those who linger in search of treasures; it doesn't seem to target those who simply pass through.

Lin Fei continued upwards without lingering for long, and did not encounter any other dangers.

Soon, Lin Fei had passed through the first thirty Heavenly Palaces and was finally about to enter the last three Heavenly Palaces.

……

Among the various records of the ancient celestial palace ruins, there are only records of the first thirty heavenly palaces.

As for the final three heavenly palaces, there is no record of them in any of the classic texts of any sect or school.

No one in the world knows what treasures or dangers lie within these final three heavenly palaces.

Because no one knew what existed within these final three heavenly palaces, and no one was confident they could escape unscathed, none of those who entered this time chose to go into the final three heavenly palaces.

After all, there were already enough treasures to search for in the first thirty heavenly palaces, and no one would be willing to risk their life to come to these unknown final three heavenly palaces.

Lin Fei was the first to arrive at this place, and he was already extremely cautious.

Lin Fei knew that the Thirty-Three Heavenly Palaces were fraught with danger and unfathomable. Even a grandmaster at the Celestial Realm could lose his life if he was not careful.

Especially the last three heavenly palaces, which are completely unknown, and we have no idea what kind of dangers we will encounter. The level of crisis is far greater than that of the first thirty heavenly palaces.

……

This thirty-first heavenly palace is quite different from the previous thirty. Its area is much smaller than the previous thirty heavenly palaces.

At the entrance connecting the 30th and 31st Heavenly Palaces, all that appeared before Lin Fei was a huge iron gate.

"Is this the entrance to the Thirty-First Heavenly Palace?" Lin Fei thought to himself. He raised his hand, pushed open the iron gate in front of him, and stepped inside.

Inside the iron gate, the light was dim, and a faint breathing sound could be heard from within, as if some monster was lurking in the darkness.

At this moment, beads of sweat were faintly appearing on Lin Fei's palms. Along with the sound of his breathing, a wave of heat carrying a strange fragrance wafted towards him.

This was different from what Lin Fei had encountered in the first thirty levels of the Heavenly Palace. In the first thirty levels of the Heavenly Palace, everything Lin Fei encountered was just an illusion.

Although he could see its existence and hear its voice, he could not feel anything real from it.

But at this moment, the blast of heat and the delicate fragrance that wafted over her nose clearly told Lin Fei that what she was seeing was not an illusion like before, but a real and tangible thing.

Unexpectedly, there were still signs of other life within the Thirty-Three Heavenly Palaces. Lin Fei had thought that the Thirty-Three Heavenly Palaces were already deserted, and that the ancient gods within were either dead or missing, their whereabouts unknown.

Lin Fei was extremely cautious and slowly walked forward. After walking for a while, he finally saw the thing that was breathing. What could it be?

Lying prostrate on the ground was a giant, almost transparent worm. Its body was incredibly smooth, resembling a loach. On its head grew a pair of dragon horns, adding a touch of imposing power to its otherwise somewhat comical appearance.

"What kind of monster is this?" Lin Fei looked at the giant worm lying in front of him and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

Although Lin Fei cannot be considered an expert on both ancient and modern times, his current level of cultivation has given him a broad perspective. Moreover, he is well-versed in various classic texts from the Jade Emperor Sect and the Southern Tang royal family.

However, Lin Fei had absolutely no recollection of the strangely shaped giant worm in front of him.

It seems that none of the ancient texts Lin Fei has seen contain any record of a giant insect with such an appearance.

After what happened in the Peach Garden, Lin Fei dared not underestimate anything he saw in the Heavenly Palace.

Not to mention, this giant worm in front of us lives within the Thirty-Three Heavens Palace, so it must be an extraordinary being.

Fortunately, the giant insect in front of him was breathing steadily, seemingly fast asleep. Judging from its even breathing, it seemed completely unaware of Lin Fei's arrival.

"Huh? This is... this is a mirage? I never thought such a creature actually existed in the world!" Just then, a voice suddenly rang out in Lin Fei's mind.
