"..."
Xue Yu's sincere question made it difficult for her to answer. After all, she had only made a few trivial wishes. Who could blame her for her poor mental endurance in that fantasy world.
Ye Qiao raised her hands to cover her eyes, stared at the illusion that ran out, clicked her tongue twice, and looked away as if nothing had happened, "What are you all doing here?"
Those from Yue Qing Sect and Wen Jian Sect are all guarding here.
Chu Xingzhi: "Waiting for you."
"My junior sister asked me to win you over." He clenched the sword at his waist with his fingertips and said in a calm voice, "Cooperate with our Wenjian Sect. When the time comes, our two swords will be combined and we can dominate the secret realm together."
Ye Qiao: "Hey."
Dominate the secret realm?
Seeing that Ye Qiao was really thinking about it, Song Hansheng narrowed his eyes and said without hesitation: "Those poor sword cultivators have no money. Anyway, you won't participate in the fifth game. If you go with us, we have money."
really.
From Song Hansheng's family background to his sect, he is indeed quite wealthy.
"No, no, no. We are not cooperating today." Ye Qiao pointed at his light blue sect uniform and smiled slightly: "Money is not enough, for your Yue Qing Sect, this is another price."
Song Hansheng looked at her coldly, "Then how much do you need before you are willing to cooperate with us?" In fact, it's okay not to cooperate with Ye Qiao. They have Yun Que here and their ranking is stable.
I'm just afraid that Ye Qiao will be a variable.
Her comeback in the first two days left a deep shadow, which made Song Hansheng afraid to let her go to another sect easily.
"Don't worry. No one from our Changming Sect will cooperate this time." Xue Yu's voice was calm and he said calmly, "We don't plan to interfere in the fifth game, so you should compete fairly."
Song Hansheng frowned when he heard what he said, and then quickly let go.
That's okay too.
Anyway, the Yue Qing Sect can't win over them, and other sects can't even think about it. If the Chang Ming Sect doesn't get involved in the fifth game, then the competition will be fair.
In addition, everyone else is curious about what is going on in that illusion.
"Why did it crack? What did you do to it?"
Ye Qiao thought this secret realm was quite interesting. She pondered for a moment, "That thing is quite interesting. It can change seventy-two times, do you understand? The more you think about something in your heart, it will change it for you, and I will start not to Stop changing your obsession and let it come out, other swordsmanship."
This shows that Huanjing is also a diligent person, working hard to have a full stomach on weekdays.
Su Zhuo pursed his lips, "So, you disappeared for so long just to torture the illusion?"
Su Zhuo couldn't help but feel doubtful.
Isn't she trapped by inner demons?
In that real and fake illusion, Su Zhuo saw the original Ye Qiao. Although the second senior sister at that time was dull, she took good care of him and would not be as merciless as she is now.
Ye Qiao is not trapped by inner demons and malice, which means that she really has no nostalgia for Yue Qingzong.
Not even basic disgust.
Ye Qiao: "What else?"
Song Hansheng looked at Su Zhuo asking such a question as if he had lost his mind. He frowned and kicked the unconscious Su Zhuo awake, "Let's go. Find Yun Que." Somehow, Ye Qiao came out. Yes, Yun Que hasn't come out yet.

"What did you see in the illusion?"
After all, the other people came out very quickly, so the focus of questioning was Ye Qiao's illusion.
Entering the illusion can be regarded as a way to verify the Taoist heart.
"I saw myself." Ye Qiao touched his chin, "And, light."
"In the illusion, you can see yourself." Xue Yu knew a lot, he pursed his lips, "Do you still remember what the you in the illusion said? Every time it bewitched, maybe it was the worry you had in your heart."
"Remember." Ye Qiao nodded, she vaguely understood something.
Only in the illusion can you see your true self.
Although that illusion was a little silly, one thing was unmistakable. What it saw in its memory was indeed the real self, and the worries and fears in its heart.
Ye Qiao suddenly realized this when the fantasy said, "You can't even save yourself in the end."
Her own way may not be a free way.
"I probably know what my path is."
"Let's talk when we get back." Xue Yu said softly. Too many people outside the venue were watching. It is a good thing to find out your Taoist heart early. If you are afraid that you can't figure it out clearly, you have stagnated for many years in the foundation building period. Mingxuan was in this way.
With the individual competition coming up, the sooner the better.
"Can the golden elixir be broken?" Zhou Xingyun's voice was calm.
Ye Qiao assessed his current situation: "You can force a breakthrough, but in the secret realm, it's not necessary."
really.
The secret realm is closed for only five days. If she comes here for three days and three nights like Ye Qinghan, what if she lets the other competitions in the secret realm pass on her in person?
And forcing a breakthrough will lead to an unstable foundation, which is unnecessary.
The illusion split open and escaped. There was nothing blocking the way inside. Xue Yu looked at the time and said, "Let's go find some spiritual plants first. We need them for the alchemy competition."
Some spiritual plants grow in special environments and can only be found in secret realms.
Ye Qiao was the one who needed the most experience among them, so she was the one to open the way. The girl carried the bamboo shoots in her hand and walked forward casually. She didn't know whether it was bad luck or coincidence, but she ran into the monster within a few steps.
It is normal to encounter monsters in secret realms.
What's not normal is...
"That's from the Nascent Soul stage." Zhou Xingyun pursed his lips and said calmly.
Hunting the Nascent Soul stage monsters in the fifth round was of no use to them. Not only was it a waste of time, but there was also the risk of being counterattacked.
The coercion of the Nascent Soul stage monsters is extremely oppressive, and there is only one. Although it is troublesome, it is not without the power to fight back.
Ye Qiao faced the monster and activated the Qingfeng Jue. The third move was the most powerful and it was a good choice to kill the monster. The monster had a heavy body and was forced to let out bursts of intimidating roars when two swordsmen attacked from both sides. .
The mental attack on the sea of consciousness hurts like a pinprick.
The moment it roared out, Ye Qiao's sword technique, which he tried several times before succeeding, followed closely. The blast of sword energy interrupted the monster's roar and saved the ears of several people.
"The third form?" Mu Zhongxi turned his wrist slightly and slashed the monster's leg with his sword, "When did you know how to do it?"
Ye Qiao: "Just now."
She was not very proficient either. She had to push it several times before succeeding once. This newly learned sword technique had to be practiced over and over again to be effective.
Mu Chongxi chuckled softly, "We agreed at the beginning that which one of us would learn to be a dog first, and you actually learned it secretly?"
Ye Qiao pressed down the bamboo shoot in his hand and tried the Qingfeng Jue again without looking back: "It's very simple. I'll teach you step by step when I return to the sect."
This move is really easy to use and has a strong effect when attacking on a single target. Ta Qingfeng opened up the distance, and several talismans flew to help her cover. Mingxuan couldn't help but said while doing it: "Whoever learns it first is the dog." ?"
"It doesn't matter." Mu Chongxi said indifferently: "We are all dogs."
This time, the two cheap swordsmen reached a rare consensus.
It took a lot of time to deal with the monsters. Ye Qiao frowned, and the spiritual energy in her dantian was almost wiped out. She had a solid foundation and broke through two realms in a row before entering the secret realm. After her spiritual roots grew up, The rate of absorption is also faster.
But breaking through in the secret realm is not a good choice.
Ye Qiao could only suppress the restlessness in her dantian, control her urge to make pills, and walked inside with Xue Yu. During this period, she asked for a few Qingxin Pills.
"Press it." Ye Qiao covered her warm pubic area and said honestly, "It's a bit hot."
Xue Yu said thoughtfully, "Don't crush yourself by suppressing your realm. Really."
Ye Qiao: "It's okay." I just broke through two realms not long ago, and if I continue to break through the golden elixir, my foundation will easily become unstable.
Now the strength of her spiritual roots allows her to break through, but Ye Qiao doesn't want to.
There are many spiritual plants alive in the inner circle. In the past, they were busy competing and had no time to dig. Now, under the leadership of Xue Yu, they all went to the ground and started digging for herbs diligently.
Without a shovel, Mu Chongxi simply picked up a stone and slowly squatted down to dig. When he looked up, he found that his senior brother was faster than all of them.
He dug accurately, and he almost completely dug out the spiritual vegetation on the side.
"What did you use? Digging so fast." Mu Chongxi was curious.
"sword."
Seeing Zhou Xingyun digging in the soil with his natal sword, his eyelids twitched, "Will your sword really not hit you after it transforms?"
They were all chatting together, but Ye Qiao was a little out of sorts due to the hot Dantian in her body. Her eyes wandered around randomly. Suddenly, the girl's eyes narrowed slightly, pointing to the ground under her feet, thinking: "Wait a minute. Later."
"Do you think the ground is moving?"
After a pause, Ye Qiao changed her words: "Or is it changing?" Ye Qiao has a poor memory and can notice every detail.
Being reminded like this, Xue Yu was stunned for a few seconds, looked at the Lingzhi in his hand, and realized later, "It seems that the Lingzhi's position just moved a little bit. I thought I remembered it wrong." Not everyone has it. In Ye Qiao's photographic memory.
Therefore, when something feels wrong, the first reaction is to think that it is my fault.
But if Ye Qiao said so, then the position must have changed.
Xue Yu put away the spiritual plant, "I only heard other monks say that this ghost secret realm is very strange."
"This secret realm may be alive." Ye Qiao let out a breath, "The fantasy realm can perform seventy-two transformations for me, so I don't think the secret realm is lower than its level."
It was only after she saw that illusion that she thought of the possibility of consciousness in the secret realm.
Putting the spiritual plants into the mustard bag, the group planned to leave the inner area first. The inner area was more dangerous. Now that Ye Qiao had touched the edge of the golden elixir stage, there was no need to continue going inside.
As if they were aware of the five people's desire to leave, when they returned to the original route, the road section on the ground quietly changed again.
The moment a shadow floated above his head, Mingxuan quickly built a defensive talisman with his eyes and hands. Three diamond talismans were broken in succession before he could withstand the crushing force caused by the monster's sudden lift of its foot.
Then the monster roared, and a strong air flow blew over, mixed with the fishy breath in its mouth.
"Depend on."
Mingxuan's expression changed.
Zhou Xingyun narrowed his eyes: "Another Nascent Soul stage."
Hearing these words, Xue Yu's lips twitched: "Has your bamboo shoot seal been sealed with a curse?"
Why are there suddenly so many great monsters in the Yuanfang stage?
Ye Qiao: "It's done." She asked Duan Hengdao to get it done early in the morning.
Since it's not a matter of grabbing bamboo shoots, then it might be the problem of the secret realm itself. One of them is okay, but it's just that they are just unlucky.
From the fact that Ye Qiao had to dig out eggs to attract the Nascent Soul stage, it can be seen that monsters of this level are intelligent and will not conflict with their descendants for no reason.
But now, when they were about to leave the inner circle, another Nascent Soul stage monster came towards them. What was it if it wasn't aimed at?
"The secret realm may be targeting us." Ye Qiao sneered. Why, did her next secret realm break the law or something happened?
"What is it targeting us for?" Mingxuan couldn't figure it out. They basically did nothing after entering the secret realm, but the other four sects were fighting fiercely, and they could hear the movement from a distance.
That's a good question.
Ye Qiao: "I want to know too."
Qin Fanfan frowned, and after listening to their inferences, he said in a deep voice: "Is the secret realm alive?"
"This is a ghost secret realm. It often opens and appears for no reason. I have heard that it has its own consciousness in it before." Seeing that Chang Mingzong was a little worried, the elder of Wenjian Sect touched his chin, which was covered with stubble. "But such mysteries usually do not interfere with monks."
"It's strange. It has been opened so many times in the past, but there has never been a situation where it was deliberately targeted at anyone."
Since the secret realm has self-awareness in it, it is a spiritual creature born in heaven and earth. It will not interfere with these things unless...
The elders looked at each other and thought of something in unison.
Will it be the way of heaven?
But what did Tiandao do against the Changming Sect for no reason?
-
The Yuan Ying stage monster Ye Qiao couldn't deal with it alone, but she had a lot of stuff in her mustard bag. She dodged while observing its weaknesses. She dodged several consecutive attacks. Dust flew up from the ground, and the monster raised its hooves high. Catching up suddenly, Ye Qiao lowered his sword and blocked the blow while the third move of Qingfeng Jue exploded instantly.
Mu Chongxi was about to go to help with her sword, but was stopped by Zhou Xingyun, who said: "Let her do it by herself."
Now it is Ye Qiao who needs breakthrough experience, not them. The few people can only cover and help at critical moments. Killing monsters and beasts was mainly left to Ye Qiao.
Ye Qiao not only faced the pressure of the Nascent Soul stage monsters, but also had to be careful about his speed. If he slowed down, he would be torn in half.
After one person and one beast pulled for a while, she continued to swallow the pill. She had tested it several times just now and finally found the weak point of the monster. The next second after the monster disappeared, Ye Qiao was prepared in advance, turned around and grabbed the bamboo shoots in his hand. Hit the monster beast trying to attack in the belly.
At the same time, the confinement talisman was ignited, and the talisman took effect a second before it went crazy. The monster's mouth widened and biting movement was paused.
Ye Qiao expressionlessly took the sword move from Wenjian Sect, and the cold sword light slashed towards the demonic beast's Dantian.
The moment it crashed to the ground, with a twist of his sword, Ye Qiao calmly took out the inner elixir inside, breathed a sigh of relief, and spread his whole body on the ground, like a piece of big cake, showing a bit of helplessness. love.
There is plenty of spiritual energy in the secret realm. After the Dantian is cleared, the spiritual roots will automatically begin to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy.
It is a fantasy that she can deal with the monsters in the Nascent Soul stage by herself, but who allows her to have several senior brothers in the late Golden Core stage to assist her.
The process was a bit troublesome, but the ending was quite satisfying.
"Are you okay?" Mingxuan sympathized with her.
Kill the Nascent Soul stage monsters at the peak of foundation building.
Ye Qiao was in a daze: "It's okay."
"Is this secret realm targeting me?" she asked.
Xue Yu nodded heavily.
"If it forces me again." Ye Qiao pursed his lips as he felt the restless Dantian, and his mood became worse. "I will forcefully break through and explode this secret realm."
