Monument Tears!

Chu Mu did not feel any sensation of Monument Tears in this Heavenly

Boundary Monument, nor did he feel any sadness in the previous illusions. However, when these two words echoed in his soul, Chu Mu suddenly felt a surge of sadness, causing his body to shiver from the cold!

He didn’t see any sorrow or pain, yet this inexplicable feeling grew stronger and stronger, to the point that the corners of Chu Mu’s eyes gradually moistened…

“That shouldn’t be caused by sand dust, right?” Ye Qingzi stretched out her finger, swiped it under Chu Mu’s cheek, wiped off the inexplicable tear that had slid down his face, then carefully placed the teardrop into a tiny glass container…

Chu Mu was stunned, unable to understand why he suddenly felt sadness, or why his eyes inexplicably overflowed with tears; all of these were beyond his control.

“What on earth is going on?” Chu Mu became increasingly confused, looking back at the Heavenly Boundary Monument looming in the dimness.

There were complex words and ancient patterns on the Heavenly Boundary Monument, which Chu Mu couldn’t understand. Glancing up, he suddenly noticed a familiar totem.

This totem was about ten meters high on the Heavenly Boundary Monument, deeply engraved into the monument, resembling the soul pet Chu Mu had seen before.

“There are many legends about the Heavenly Boundary Monument, and I only know about the Monument Tears. The implication of Monument Tears is that after the death of some ancient soul pets, their powerful will still exists here. At certain moments, like what happened just now, this will would be amplified, imposing itself on the spiritually sensitive individuals’ minds. In a dreamlike way, it allows a person to see fragments of the soul pet’s memories.”

Ye Qingzi said as she handed the tiny finger-sized bottle to Chu Mu, continuing, “The legend goes that the Heavenly Boundary Monument suppresses the will of countless soul pets. These ancient soul pets would choose people with similar will as theirs to pass on their memories. Well, ‘pass on’ might be too strong a term; it’s more about letting that person know of their existence. After all, those who see it tend to gradually forget…”

Chu Mu felt he had seen more than just the soul pet displaying an exquisite movement battle technique; there was more, much more. But now all he remembered was that chasing scene, which was becoming increasingly blurred. It was indeed like a dream; vivid upon waking, but gradually fading away and then disappearing.

“So why did I cry?” Chu Mu asked.

“It’s not you shedding tears; it’s the soul pet crying through your body. Maybe it somehow affected your emotions, making you cry for it,” Ye Qingzi said.

Chu Mu didn’t quite understand, so he gathered his gaze and said, “It seems I can’t comprehend this level yet.”

“Don’t think too much about it. No one actually knows the true secret of the Heavenly Boundary Monument. Even scholars who have been studying it for a hundred years have barely glimpsed an iceberg’s tip. Oh, take good care of this bottle of Monument Tears,” Ye Qingzi said.

“These Monument Tears? Aren’t they my tears?” Chu Mu took the small bottle from Ye Qingzi and asked, puzzled.

“They are Monument Tears in the form of your tears, one of the most precious spirit items in the world; it is extremely rare to get,” Ye Qingzi said earnestly.

“The more I listen, the more confused I get.” Chu Mu still couldn’t understand how his tears had become one of the world’s most precious spirit items.

“Don’t worry about understanding it. In any case, these tears are priceless. They can grant you infinite mysterious strength,” Ye Qingzi said.

“…” Chu Mu looked at Ye Qingzi dumbfoundedly, still not understanding why it had such infinite power.

“Think of it this way: it is the crystallized will of the ancient soul pet you saw, a power bestowed upon you. Of course, if you drink your own tears now, there would be no effect whatsoever. Once you realize the true meaning of this tear, only then can it grant you strength – what that strength is, I don’t know. It could be soul power, soul pet, soul skill… anything.”

Chu Mu nodded in partial understanding and carefully put away the miraculous Monument Tears. He smiled and said, “Qingzi, you really know a lot. It feels like you want to go to the Western World more than I do.”

“I was exposed to these strange tales early on from my elders. Later on, I developed an interest, started exploring secrets I could dig up that no one else knew about. I have read quite a few documents on the Heavenly Boundary Monument and have always wanted to experience the Monument Tears… However, this requires not only luck but also some sort of connection, and it is you who obtained the Monument Tears,” Ye Qingzi said with a touch of disappointment.

“Anyway, I don’t really know its use. I can give you these Monument Tears, and you can study them slowly,” Chu Mu said.

Chu Mu had a good attitude; this object came to him unexpectedly, and if it weren’t for Ye Qingzi collecting his tear, the Monument Tears would probably have rolled into the dust. Chu Mu could tell from Ye Qingzi’s beautiful eyes that she longed for the Monument Tears. In fact, if Ye Qingzi hadn’t told him about all this and secretly taken the Monument Tears, Chu Mu would have had no idea…

Ye Qingzi shook her head, reluctantly smiling, “The one who saw the memory fragments was you; only you would understand the chill in this tear. If I took it away, it would just be your tear.”

“Ah, well… My tears are actually quite precious; you can collect them too,” Chu Mu said.

Ye Qingzi rolled her eyes, not expecting Chu Mu to be so shamelessly thick-skinned. What would she want Chu Mu’s tears for? Because this man never sheds tears? But his not shedding tears had nothing to do with her…

Ye Qingzi wanted to stay at the Heavenly Boundary Monument a while longer to see if she could find any secrets about it in the details. However, Ye Wansheng’s life was at stake, so after spending the night, the two left early the next day and entered the Zhanli Realm adjacent to the Western World.

The Zhanli Realm was not directly adjacent to the Heavenly Region in the east, but rather located in the southeast of the Western World.

The Nightmare Demon Palace and Soul Pet Palace, these two major powers, were distributed among the various worlds. The White Nightmare Demon City in the Western World was not the largest main city of the Nightmare Demon

Palace, because there was an even larger White Nightmare Demon City in the Zhanli Realm.

The Nightmare Demon Palace could be seen in almost all the major worlds of the West, with their power ubiquitous and more concentrated in the large worlds of the West.

Ignoring the Nightmare Demon Palace and the Soul Pet Palace, which are superpowers, there are two rather renowned forces in the Western World. One is the Great Chu Noble Family that has just experienced the Zhehuang disaster, and the other is the Luoyu Gate rooted in the Luo region.

The power of Luoyu Gate is stronger than that of the Great Chu Noble Family, and the World Lord of the entire Western Region is the master of Luoyu Gate.

Although Chu Mu was in the Luo region, he rarely interacted with people from the Luoyu Gate, only knowing that Qin Meng’er was a disciple of the Luoyu Gate.

In the Zhanli Realm, it was not entirely monopolized by the Nightmare Demon Palace. In many cities, one could see the traces of those superpowers:

Nightmare Demon Palace, Soul Pet Palace, Soul Hall, and Elemental Gate…

The main city of the Elemental Gate was not in the Zhanli Realm either. The Elemental City mentioned by Ye Qingzi should be similar to the White

Nightmare Demon City in the Western World for the Nightmare Demon Palace.

However, at the border between the Western World and the Zhanli Realm, in the Langhe Domain, there is also an Elemental City in Langhe City. Ye Qingzi felt that if those two people who took Ye Wansheng away wanted to go to the Elemental City in Li City, they would have definitely lingered at the Elemental City of this Langhe City. So she intended to head to Langhe City first to see if there were any clues.

After passing the Heavenly Boundary Monument located at the western border ot Langhe Domain, they hurried southeast. With one more day ot travel, they would be able to reach the Domain City of Langhe Domain.

Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi did not stop for long and finally arrived in Langhe City after traveling for a day.

The Elemental City in Langhe City is the only Elemental City of the Elemental

Gate in the Western World. However, many people consider the Heavenly Boundary Monument as the boundary and do not count Langhe City, which extends into the eastern territory, as part of the Western World…

The scale of Langhe City’s Elemental City is not very large – it is roughly the size of a Soul Pet Palace located in bustling urban areas. It is comprised of several magnificent, magnificent mansions and palace complexes.

“Let’s go find out.” Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi both decided to enter the Elemental Gate as Elemental Soul Pet Masters.

However, what made Chu Mu frown was that unlike the Soul Pet Palace, this Elemental City only allowed members of the Elemental Gate to enter.

“If you can’t show your identity, please leave. The Elemental Gate does not welcome nobodies.” The guard disciple of the Elemental Gate said coldly.

The gate of the Elemental Gate’s main hall loomed majestically with its doors open towards the bustling streets. But the eight proud Soul Pet Masters stood outside, giving off an unwelcoming vibe, completely different from the system of the Soul Pet Palace.

The Soul Pet Palace spans across various worlds, and any palace of a Soul Pet Palace is open to all Soul Pet Masters, even those who have just started.

However, the Elemental Gate – which is only a sub-power – has built its Elemental City to be oppressive. It sets a very high threshold, placing itself in a high and superior position…

Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi were stopped at the gate, but both were eager to enter, hoping to find clues about Ye Wansheng from the contacts of the Elemental Gate…

Not far from Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi, a noble carriage slowly drove by, and two flashy youths escorted out by many attendants.

“Did you see that, the beauty in front of the Elemental City?” These two men seemed to want to enter the Elemental Gate, and one of them immediately noticed Ye Qingzi, who was showing some signs of anxiety.

“Yeah? Great figure, pretty face, definitely top-notch. Worth playing with.” The other youth also showed some prodigal tendencies.

“They can’t get in, can they?” The youth slightly raised the corners of his mouth, speaking playfully.

“Hehe, doesn’t this give me the perfect opportunity. Although that guy is a bit of an eyesore, from my experience, they don’t seem to have any special relationship.”

“Hua Cheng, you’re falling behind, even if they did have a relationship, so what…”

The two young men looked at each other and burst into laughter, striding towards the Elemental City. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian (qidian.com) to cast your votes, monthly votes, your support is my biggest driving force.)
