Xiao Li looked indifferent, chose to claim it, and then placed the Dragon-Phoenix Primordial Fetus Divine Pill in the safest and most conspicuous place in the System space, ensuring he could find it immediately.
Hmm, although he didn’t know when he would use it, it was a Divine Pill after all!
Senior Brother Xiao Bao still needed to complete all nine apertures to become a Divine Pill. A Divine Pill always had research value.
Perhaps Genius Xiao Li could comprehend a... Nascent Soul Dao or something from it?
The System, being emotionless, couldn't understand what the host was thinking. After some calculations, it also felt this reward was a bit ill-timed:
【Given the host's significant investment this time, the System has calculated and decided to grant the host an additional benefit as appropriate.】
“Golden Dragon Jade Phoenix really doesn’t sound good...”
Li Mo was muttering when he saw the System’s text and was startled again:
“What benefit?”
【The remaining rewards can be exchanged for two opportunities to choose freely. The host can select from the System’s reward list.】
“Choose freely... what’s on the list?”
Li Mo’s mood relaxed; he finally didn’t have to worry about receiving useless rewards.
The System displayed the reward list. Li Mo found the list extremely complex, containing martial arts, Medicinal Pills, weapons, ❖ Nоvеl𝚒ght ❖ (Exclusive on Nоvеl𝚒ght) secret treasures... and strange miscellaneous items. The martial arts section alone was overwhelming.
【True Martial Seven Intercepting Swords...】
【Three-Point Origin Qi...】
【Yan Shuangying’s Gun-Fu...】
Ah, it was so jumbled, anyone would be confused.
Li Mo simply asked the System to categorize it and filter out what he couldn’t use or what had low value. freeweɓnøvel.com
Light shimmered, and the list instantly became much clearer, like a mobile game mall.
“I haven’t fully recovered yet, so let’s see if there are any divine items for healing injuries.”
Li Mo checked the Medicinal Pill section.
【Nine Revolutions Soul Returning Pill】
【Mortal World Firework Pill】
【Origin Divine Pill】
...“These can all restore me to my original state, even better than before, but...”
Li Mo picked for a long time and suddenly realized something:
“System, can the rewarded items be directly delivered into my mouth?”
【Replying to host, no.】
Li Mo: “...”
Then what am I picking for!
“My inner world needs the power of all living beings to repair. The System doesn’t seem to have such a reward. Even taking those Heaven-Defying Medicinal Pills wouldn't count as breaking and then establishing.”
“Ice Cube is here, I just need to settle down...”
He comforted himself for a while.
The System’s text faded, and Li Mo suddenly felt the moonlight before him begin to float. The sensation from the depths of his true spirit was like a mayfly aimlessly drifting.
But the place he was drifting to was not without purpose.
It was the familiar sensation of entering a dream.
Perhaps because their Taiyin were connected, he had often visited Ying Bing’s dreams before.
But now, the Taiyin had been returned to Ice Cube by Ying Huang’s hand.
No... this didn't seem to be a dream... this seemed to be fragments of the past, precipitation in the depths of the Taiyin, as if with the convergence of the two Taiyin, there was an illusion of time overlapping and space intertwining.
These memories, perhaps even Ying Bing herself had long since forgotten.
When she became the Phoenix Heavenly Empress, unconsciously becoming Ying Huang in this world, these memories were even more lost to who knows where.
“If it’s a girl in the future, will she be like little Ice Cube?”
Li Mo grinned foolishly.
In the light and shadow was little Ice Cube, who had just arrived at the Li Manor, standing bewildered on the street. Her small face hadn't fully developed, but one could already glimpse her future world-shaking beauty.
However, at this moment, she was like a startled fawn, because she only remembered where her home was, but now she had no home.
Ice Cube had been a terrible navigator since she was a child.
The world suddenly became vast, and it started to rain. The people on the street also became fewer and fewer.
She walked aimlessly for a long time, but the streetscape became increasingly unfamiliar. She had only left home a few times before... “I finally found you! Let’s go home quickly.”
Suddenly, her small hand was taken by another. She turned back in confusion and saw a boisterous little mud monkey, holding her hand with one hand and a fish basket with the other.
“I told you to go fishing in the river! And you took little Bing’er with you!”
“Do you know what it means to control everyone?”
“Husband, it’s ‘people have what they control.’”
That night, after returning home, Xiao Li was beaten on the buttocks by Old Li, his screams endless.
Little Ice Cube wanted to say that she had run out herself, and it wasn’t Li Mo’s fault, but she saw little Li Mo lying on the bench, groaning dramatically while looking up at her, even having the presence of mind to wink and smile.
“This happened when I was little?” Li Mo laughed dumbfounded.
He could still remember this incident.
The further it went, the more unfamiliar the light and shadow became.
Because of his frail health, he was almost refused entry at the initiation ceremony, while Ying Bing, as before, was a fledgling Phoenix crying for the first time, astonishing everyone.
The young man’s pride made him dare not see Ying Bing again. Amidst the discussions of others, he recognized the gap between them and could no longer interact with her normally.
His deliberate distancing made them drift further apart.
Until later, he died during a Sect trial.
“Hmm? Where did this get me?”
Li Mo leaned back slightly, stunned for a long time.
These were clearly things that had never happened!
But everything seemed so real... “In this memory of Ice Cube, I didn’t awaken from the confusion of the womb.”
“That is to say... this is a future without me...”
Li Mo had long known that the Taiyin Divine Form contained the Dao of Time.
Was this the future deduced by the Taiyin Divine Form, or... something that had actually happened?
Through the light and shadow, Li Mo wanted to reach out and wipe away her falling tears, but his hand met only air.
The light and shadow did not wait for him, just like rapidly flowing time.
She had no relatives or old acquaintances by her side, and behind her were piles of bones and rivers of blood... In a trance, she was already the Master of the Gui Palace, standing at the pinnacle of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. Some called her the Empress, some called her a demoness.
The latter was probably more common.
Ever since Great Yu and the Great Shang Remnants confronted each other near the Gui Palace, disturbing its peace, and were all swallowed into the abyss by her single sword strike, the name Ying Bing became a taboo.
“Gui Palace...” Li Mo leaned back slightly, muttering to himself.
Without Xiao Li, Ice Cube became Dark Ice Cube?
He always said he saved the world in his previous life, and now it seems... it wasn’t just a joke?
Well, he had indeed saved the Tianhuang Domain once.
Now, the burden of saving the world seemed to have fallen on him again!
“If I kick the bucket, I don’t even dare to imagine what Ice Cube would turn into...”
