One person walked into the main hall.

This person is a middle-aged woman, slender and slender, slightly convex cheekbones, slightly sunken cheeks, looking quite thin, full and red lips, white neck, a light blue dress, deep eyes, as if able to see through people's hearts, up and down the body, exuding a holy atmosphere, people dare not look directly.

The yellow-robed young man hurriedly stood up and said with a smile: "Queen Mother, why are you here?"

It turned out that this woman was the most favored concubine of King Zhennan, and because she was born in a Linglong family, people called her Princess Linglong.

The yellow-robed young man was born to her and the king of Zhennan, named Gu Qiyue.

When King Zhennan was away, the affairs of the palace were basically decided by Gu Qiyue, and Princess Linglong rarely asked in person, and her appearance made Gu Qiyue feel quite surprised.

Princess Linglong glanced at Bai Mei and said lightly: "I heard what you just said, and the plan is not bad." ”

"Queen Mother......" Gu Qiyue showed a look of surprise.

Princess Linglong said: "You don't need to say much, the Huoyun Army has just suffered a big defeat, it is indeed not appropriate to rush out troops, if it is defeated again, it will put the palace into a more embarrassing situation, and those people in the court will also become more serious, so it is still Bai Mei's plan is the safest!"

"But wouldn't promising a reward to the traitor damage the prestige of the palace?" Gu Qiyue raised his voice.

Princess Linglong frowned slightly, showing a little disappointment, and said: "The prestige is only temporary, even if it is lost, it can be made up, as long as the South China Sea is calmed down in the end, as for what method is used to calm down, do you think anyone cares?"

Gu Qiyue was a little disapproving, and said confidently: "Not necessarily! I don't think it's as good as the child himself leading the troops to the south, and in less than half a year, he will definitely be able to pacify the South China Sea!"

Princess Linglong said unhappily: "What is your identity, a few small countries in the South China Sea, can you do it yourself? You should think more about how to deal with those people in the court and share the worries of your father!"

"That Qishan Hou's grandson Li Yi, I want to meet him. Gu Qiyue still refused to give up, but his voice was much quieter after all.

Princess Linglong's face sank, and she said coldly: "You say it again?"

Gu Qiyue saw that his mother was angry, so he had to be silent.

Princess Linglong's expression eased slightly, and said: "The Marquis of Qishan is a traitor to the royal family, and he deserves to die at the hands of your father, and his grandson dares to go against the palace, sooner or later it will be a dead end, and you don't need to do anything!"

As he spoke, he turned his face to Bai Mei, and said in a deep voice: "You go to lobby the five countries of the South China Sea, as long as they are willing to offer Li Yi, the palace will not blame them for the past, and whatever reward they want, they can be satisfied!"

"My subordinates understand!" Bai Mei breathed a sigh of relief and kowtowed, "Thank you for the grace of the princess and the prince not to kill!"

Princess Linglong said, "If you can't do it, you can sacrifice your own head!"

"Yes!" Bai Mei retreated respectfully.

Gu Qiyue was dissatisfied: "Queen Mother, if the five countries of the South China Sea are unwilling to surrender or fail to catch Li Yi, then won't we lose face?"

Princess Linglong said lightly: "With the strength of the five countries in the South China Sea, there is no problem in dealing with Li Yi, as for whether he can catch him, it is indeed an unknown, he can defeat Bai Mei, and he must have a set of means of escape." ”

"Then you still pin your hopes on Bai Mei?" Gu Qiyue wondered.

Princess Linglong smiled slightly, and said: "Who said that I want to pin my hopes on Bai Mei? Then Li Yi fled from the Shenxiao Sect to the South China Sea, it is said that the Shenxiao Sect is tracking down his whereabouts everywhere, as long as you try to let the Shenxiao Sect know the news, I think, they will definitely send people to the South China Sea!"

......

Li Yi has been searching for seven days and seven nights at the bottom of the South China Sea, but he still hasn't found the ancient city.

The erosion of the sea over the years has changed dramatically in the continent, with some areas marked as mountains on the map now flattened, and some places that were once flat are now ocean trenches.

"Where is it?" Li Yi took out the map of the South China Sea continent and looked at it carefully, trying to find some clues.

However, there are very few clues, and the only ones that can be called clues are some of the extremely high peaks marked on the map, which have now been turned into islands.

As long as you use these islands as a positioning reference, you can barely find an approximate direction.

However, because the South China Sea is too big, even if there is a general direction, there is no guarantee that he will find the ancient city in a short time, and Li Yi is most worried that the ancient city may be completely destroyed by the sea, leaving no trace, so he will never be able to find it.

In the mausoleum of the Tianyi Holy Lord, he had seen a clone of the Tianyi Holy Lord and seen the terrifying power of that clone, but the ancient city he was looking for now was the place where the master of the Tianyi Holy Lord once lived.

A doppelganger of the Tianyi Holy Lord is enough to make people look up, how powerful his master should be, Li Yi is a little unimaginable.

You must know that the Tianyi Holy Lord is one of the ancient powers, and he is famous, but his master is unknown, and he can only find traces from legends, and no one knows his name or his appearance.

Li Yi sometimes inevitably had a trace of doubt, whether the legend really happened, whether the Tianyi Holy Lord really had a master, and whether his master really lived in that ancient city?

Li Yi didn't have any bottom in his heart, and the more he looked for it, the more suspicious he felt, but he had no other choice.

On this day, he came to the Blue Moon Islands.

The Blue Moon Islands, which used to be the location of the Blue Moon Country, are composed of more than a dozen small islands, and the sea water under the islands is full of corpses, and the corpse qi is extremely rich.

These bones are all the Blue Moon Nationals who were slaughtered by the Huoyun Army back then.

Li Yi sighed, urged the Corpse Demon True Scripture, absorbed all those corpse qi, refined them into more than two thousand corpse demon pills, and then fed these corpse demon pills to the thousand corpses of the Huoyun Army in the storage bag.

One after another, the Fire Cloud Army warriors were refined into corpse demons after absorbing the Corpse Demon Pill.

Along the way, Li Yi continued to search for the ancient city under the sea while refining corpse demons.

Now for him, refining corpse demons is already a breeze, and it doesn't take too much effort, but it still takes a little effort to carve a magic circle for these corpse demons.

A full month has passed, and Li Yi still hasn't found the ancient city under the sea, but there are a thousand more corpse demons in the storage bag, which finally makes him feel quite comforted.

At this point, the corpse demon army he once dreamed of was beginning to take shape, but this corpse demon army was still too weak, and its strength was far inferior to a real fire cloud army.

Because the real soldiers of the Huoyun Army are all masters who can use their true qi, and they can urge all kinds of magic weapons to form battle formations, which is something that the junior corpse demons can't do.

The only advantage of the primary corpse demon is that the physical body is relatively strong, but this is far from enough.

It is necessary to let the primary corpse demons refine more corpse demon pills, and even various heavenly and earthly treasures, further strengthen the physical body, and then carve the magic circle on them, just like Li Yi did to Xu Longzi, refining them into an existence similar to the corpse magic treasure, and at that time, their strength can be comparable to that of the real Huoyun Army soldiers.

Back then, the Corpse Demon Sect also refined a large number of corpse demons to form an army of corpse demons, but because most of the corpse demons were too weak, even though the number was huge, it was useless, and they were finally wiped out by the King of Zhennan.

Li Yi naturally didn't want to repeat the mistakes of the past, his army of corpse demons had to pursue refinement first, and then he would consider increasing the number.

He continued to feed the Corpse Demon Pill, and at the same time fed some heavenly and earthly treasures, including Xuanjin, and even Xuanyang Golden Essence and the like, which made the materials he scavenged from the Bi family quickly consume, and he couldn't help but feel a little distressed.

Especially Xiao Qi, the speed of refining the Corpse Demon Pill and materials is very fast, it is simply a bottomless pit.

Li Yi was helpless about this, and began to take precautions in his heart, where to get more materials in the future, as for the Corpse Demon Pill, it must also be refined in large quantities, and this thousand corpse demons will be turned into an elite master as soon as possible.

Just as he was worried about the corpse demon, suddenly, he heard a roar from the depths of the sea, like some giant beast.

Li Yi followed the sound and found that the sound came from the bottom of a bottomless trench, so he sank into it, but strangely, the resistance under the trench was getting bigger and bigger, as if it was imprisoned by an invisible force.

It was as if it wasn't seawater, but gold and iron.

"There must be something strange under this trench!" Li Yi's heart moved, and suddenly his body shook, and he sacrificed the Faxiang, and when the sea water met his Faxiang, it immediately melted and separated to both sides.

It took three hours to sink before Li Yifang reached the bottom, and it was pitch black all around, there was not the slightest light that could penetrate to such a deep place, and there were no deep-sea creatures that could glow, and there was a deathly silence around him.

The sea water seemed to be solidified, and it didn't flow at all, Li Yi walked forward for a long time, and he didn't find a single aquatic plant, let alone any small fish and shrimp.

This place is completely dead, and no living creature can survive here!

Li Yizheng was shocked to himself, and suddenly a huge phanther appeared in the distance, hazy, not particularly real, but it was enough to judge from its outline, it was a city!

The legendary ancient city pool, the place where the Tianyi Holy Lord attained enlightenment, appeared in front of Li Yi in this way.

He couldn't help but stop, both shocked and excited.

After more than a month of hard searching, it finally paid off, and he settled down and walked quickly towards the ancient city.

The closer he got to the ancient city, the more solemn his mood became, as if something was pressing on his heart, making him feel almost suffocated.

The old and dilapidated city walls are gradually becoming visible.

Li Yi came to a city gate with three large mottled characters engraved on it------

Water Emperor City!
