She frowned slightly, I couldn't find any other path than the one in the painting, which would allow me to gain that brief moment of freedom—as long as I controlled the time and rushed back before this pesky phoenix crown was about to wield its might, wouldn't that be fine?

She glanced back at the phoenix crown on the bed, slowly approached the satin painting, and gently pushed open the small window in the painting.

The garden outside the window was as calm as ever, and Mei'er stood silently by the lake for a long time, remembering the suffocating gloom in the secret passage and the huge golden dragon hidden in the waterhole, and couldn't help but hesitate.

She looked around at this flowery courtyard, this strange space seemed to be like this in eternity, during this time she had paid attention to observed, and found that everything in it seemed to be frozen in a certain moment, the flowers and leaves, never withering alternately, the water and the wind, always rippling slightly.

Time is completely frozen here, whose backyard is this?

Back then, was there a pair of figures here, snuggling up to watch the wind and enjoy the clouds?

Why is this courtyard lonely and claustrophobic in the painting for thousands of years?

She kicked a gravel at her feet into the lake, and sank the questions to the bottom of the lake one by one, and now I want to figure out something else, which I will leave for later!

She took a deep breath and stepped into the sparkling lake, which she didn't have to struggle to freeze now that she had learned its secrets.

Stepping on the swirling water, she slowly sank into the cold bottom, and the accelerating current instantly swept her into the surging whirlpool.

In front of her was the winding dark tunnel where water droplets splashed, and she stood on the ground and mixed her breath evenly, and then quickly ran towards the depths of the cave.

According to the last time inference, the time of the death-killing curse attached to the phoenix crown was within a day or two after leaving the Heavenly Domain, and she had to grasp this window of time.

If all goes well, a day's work will be enough for her to go back and forth.

When passing through the waterhole, the dragon seemed to be asleep, and did not come out to disturb her, Mei'er screamed in her heart, and ran towards the cliff with a quick pace, after half a cup of tea, she was already standing in front of the bronze door, the door was quietly embedded in the cliff stone wall, glowing with a cold blue light, she did not hesitate, pushed the door out, and walked out of the door in a flash.

It was quiet outside the door, and the past was full of dark mist, just like half a year ago.

The clouds are entangled, the mountains and forests are hidden in the floating gray mist, and the overlapping shadows are looming, revealing a palpitating hideousness in the gray, and the howling wind brings a chill to the bone.

Blown by the cold wind, Mei'er couldn't help but sneeze a few times one after another, she paused on the cliff, the netherworld region is completely different from the Zhong Lingyuxiu in the heavenly domain, refreshing and bright, it seems that all the poor mountains and bad waters in the world are gathered here, she kneaded the bridge of her nose, and her heart couldn't help but give birth to a few points of hesitation, the last time she was able to successfully find the passage to the Jinling ruins, it was because of the guidance of the Emperor of the Underworld, but now, she is facing the boundless silence, where is the passage hidden? She was completely ignorant.

She looked back at the bronze door on the cliff, the glowing ancient door seemed to mock her ignorance and fearlessness.

At this time, she would have liked to meet the foreign emperor, but where was he?

As far as the eye could see, there was not a trace of any living creatures except fog or mist.

She looked down at the jade bracelet on her wrist, the handsome appearance of the Emperor of the Underworld came to her heart, if the emperor stood side by side with him, it must be indistinguishable, she was not a dull person, during this period of time, she also vaguely guessed the meaning of this bracelet restrained, remembering the last time he overstepped herself, she didn't feel a little embarrassed.

I recklessly broke in this time, what would he think?

She pursed her lips and turned the bracelet slightly, this time by the way, return the bracelet to him, we are not from the same world after all, after revealing the doubts in my heart, I still have to go back to the heavenly realm, where is my living space.

She slowly pulled her hands into her sleeves, she was going to find the snake cave, and from this moment on, she had to race against time, otherwise what awaited her would be an endless abyss of pain.

She doesn't have much time, she has to be fast.

Mei'er stepped into the ethereal white mist, and after looking in the fog in all directions, she decided to go west, but when she was in the overlapping peaks and rocks, and the ravines and bays, she felt a chill in her heart, and before she knew it, she had been completely lost in this empty maze.

She went back and forth in the fog a few times, and she couldn't see a half-clear path, and worse, she forgot the path back to the cliff.

At this moment, there was already a little remorse in her heart, it seemed that the warning given to her by the Hades Emperor was correct, this Netherworld Region was indeed a sinister place, and this time luck did not seem to be on her side.

She was thinking about whether she should be the same as last time, the fog turned into ice, and she saw the path clearly, when she heard the rapid footsteps behind her, she couldn't help but be happy, and was about to say hello, suddenly, several fierce winds swept rapidly, she looked back slightly, and saw the cold light flashing in the wind, all of which were attacking herself.

Mei'er's mind turned sharply, her toes tapped the mist, and she was like an arrow from the string to the cloud, and she made a light spin in the air, and she saw several more people around her.

Four black-armored guards dressed in dark iron armor, holding sharp blades, handsome faces, and cold expressions.

Mei'er fluttered lightly on a dangerous peak beside her, and those black-armored guards followed her like shadows, quietly surrounding her.

The leader glanced at Mei'er coldly, and his tone was as flat as a straight line: "Who is the demon who dares to break into my netherworld?" ”

Mei'er settled down, it seems that the Netherworld is also the same as the Heavenly Domain, equipped with a group of mysterious guards, she smiled: "You have misunderstood, I am a friend of your Hades Emperor, I am here just to borrow the way, may I ask if the Hades Emperor is here?" ”

The ironclad warrior was expressionless, unmoved by her words, and said lightly: "The emperor has not returned from patrolling the distant seas, the ancient regulations stipulate that heaven and earth will never be handed over, and those who trespass will die, so you can stay for your life!" ”

Mei'er was stunned, the Emperor of Hades did tell her about this ancient rule last time, but didn't he say let me go last time? Why did his subordinates disobey and put on a posture of taking my life?

She frowned slightly, and before she could say anything more, the black-armored warriors had already approached her, and the sharp blades in their hands rattled, and they all slashed at her.

With a wave of the sleeves of Mei'er's robe, she swung away the sharp knife that had been beckoned to her side, and she jumped onto another towering mountain, shouting, "Hey, you guys stop first!" Listen to me, I really have no ill will, I just came by the word."

The men seemed to be deaf, and their bodies flickered around her again, and the dancing blades brought up circles of cold light, enveloping her whole body.
