In a moment, the entire secret realm began to collapse, and all the monks were ejected.
As soon as he came out, Xu Chengyu spat out another mouthful of blood. The cultivator who failed to break through the realm must have been seriously injured. If his state of mind was damaged, it would even be extremely difficult for him to advance again in the future.
"Big Brother!" Zhou Yun shouted anxiously.
Xu Chengyu raised his hand to wipe the blood from his mouth, glanced at the many monks who were ejected, met Ye Su's gaze, and said, "Leave first."
…
The group returned to their residence in Jidong City. Ye Su stood beside the bed, staring at You Fushi who was still unconscious. He seemed to be completely defenseless at this moment, with his long hair spread out on the bed. He never woke up from beginning to end, but his breathing was still steady.
The character You Fushi never appeared in the original novel, but he not only has the Thousand Machine Order, but also knows that the Earthly Illusion Lotus should be put into the Four-sided Ksitigarbha Dharma Staff. What is his identity? What can the Thousand Machine Sect plot against him
After a long while, she suddenly put her hand on his slender neck and tightened it slightly.
"Big sister." Xia Er pushed the door open and came in. "This is the medical practitioner invited by Daoist Fellow Ma. He came to visit Junior Brother."
"How is Xu Chengyu?" Ye Su withdrew her hand as if nothing had happened and made way for him. "Excuse me, doctor."
Xia Er said: "I am injured, but my state of mind is not damaged. It is only a matter of time before I can form a Nascent Soul."
Ye Su nodded. It was a blessing that her state of mind was not damaged.
The doctor stepped forward to check for a while, and finally the other party said: "It's nothing serious, it's just that your spiritual power is exhausted, you need to rest for a while."
"Does the junior brother have spiritual power?" Xia Er muttered as he stood nearby. He had never seen the junior brother practice before, and even the senior sister couldn't control him.
"You stay here and watch." Ye Su said to Xia Er, "I'll go to Xu Chengyu."
On the other side, Xu Chengyu also listened to Zhou Yun's account of what happened after they entered into meditation, and knew that at that time, only two people were still awake.
"Ye Su stood on the lotus platform for a long time." Zhou Yun asked with a little doubt, "I don't know what she did when she squatted down, and then put the Earth Illusion Lotus into the Four-sided Magic Staff, and the Realm Eye stopped absorbing your spiritual power."
Ma Congqiu remembered: "Isn't that what You Fushi said? Was he speaking in code at that time?"
"No?" Ye Su's voice came faintly from outside the door, and then she walked closer, reached out and pushed the door open.
Xu Chengyu half-sat on the bed and nodded to Ye Su: "How is Friend You Dao?"
"No problem." Ye Su pulled a stool over and sat at the table. "There is a formation on the lotus platform. Although I don't know what it is, I can only bet that I can destroy it."
Xu Chengyu did not doubt her words. The powerful formation was difficult to touch and at the same time contained vast formation meaning. If it was set up in a small secret realm, it would not take long for the various sects to discover it.
"Disciples of large sects have their own trial grounds. Only low-level cultivators go to small secret realms. At the same time, the intervals between openings are short, and the fastest is once every few years." Xu Chengyu guessed, "Someone deliberately set up a formation in the small secret realm, using the four-sided Ksitigarbha Dharma Staff as the center of the formation, and absorbs the spiritual power of cultivators all year round."
Especially in places like secret realms, which are generally recognized as high-risk, it is normal for people to die there, and no one or the sect will question it.
"It's possible that he is an evil cultivator." Ma Congqiu said, "I heard that some evil cultivators have learned secret techniques and will set up formations before they die. When they encounter the right opportunity, they will take over another body and be reborn."
"Also? There is this possibility." Xu Chengyu looked at Ye Su, "What do you think?"
"Spiritual energy." Ye Su said, "I suspect there is some place in the outside world that is supplying spiritual energy to the Jingyan."
After the array stones appeared from the bottom of the pond, she began to wonder where the spiritual energy came from. This rich spiritual energy was at least at the cave level, and it did not appear in a small secret realm.
Xu Chengyu was silent for a moment and then said, "When I formed my Nascent Soul, my spiritual consciousness expanded. I touched something."
In the realm below Nascent Soul, cultivators only have spiritual consciousness. When they reach the Forming Infant stage, their divine consciousness begins to take shape and can extend over a thousand miles.
He just "touched it" and before he could even see clearly what it was, the Nascent Soul that had just been formed was shattered directly.
"I have informed my sword sect about this matter, but the secret realm collapsed and no one can enter it anymore." Xu Chengyu didn't care so much about his failure to form a baby. Instead, he was more concerned about what his consciousness touched at that time.
However, after the secret realm collapsed, it would no longer appear in the world of cultivation, and no one could enter it, and no one could investigate anything there.
Ye Su took out the four-sided Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva staff. The staff had a white jade body and a three-layer black jade lotus platform. With two faintly swaying earth-illusion lotus buds on the middle lotus platform, it gave off a weird feeling of the interweaving of good and evil.
She looked at the lotus pedestal on the end of the staff and said slowly, "Perhaps there are some answers. The Ten Thousand Buddha Sect knows better."
"If we have a chance, let's go to the Wanfo Sect to take a look." Xu Chengyu said.
"Can."
…
At night, Ye Su sat on the bed in the room and entered a state of meditation. She did not make any breakthrough in the secret realm, but her spiritual palace had already absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy, but she had not yet refined it.
The foundation-building period is the stage for cultivators to stabilize their spiritual palaces. In this realm, cultivators need to continuously expand their spiritual palaces.
The bigger the spiritual palace is, the more vast and pure the spiritual power will be in the future, and the stronger the cultivator will be.
Ye Su closed her eyes and looked inward, folded her hands in front of her abdomen, and began to refine the spiritual energy into her own spiritual power, and then used the spiritual power to expand her spiritual palace.
The dark boundaries of the spiritual palace were constantly illuminated by spiritual power, and these lit areas were gradually controlled by Ye Su.
Ye Su opened her eyes, her expression slightly strange, and something seemed to be flowing under her soul.
When she used her spiritual consciousness to cover her own spiritual palace again, she did not find anything unusual.
On the second day, everyone had almost recovered, except You Fushi who was still in a coma. Ye Su went to his room and checked for a while. Seeing that his junior brother's breathing was stable, he went downstairs.
There were two tables put together downstairs in the inn. The three people from Qianji Gate and Lu Jiu sat on one side, and Xu Chengyu, Ma Congqiu and Zhou Yun sat on the other side.
"Middle stage of Nascent Soul? This is too fast!"
As soon as Ye Su walked downstairs, she heard Ma Congqiu sighing over there.
She pulled the stool in the middle and sat down and asked: "What are you talking about?"
Xia Er said, "The whole cultivation world is saying that Kunlun Sect's Lu Chenhan has reached the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and is the best of the young generation in the current Floating World Continent."
"He's 19 years old and in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul." Xu Chengyu poured a cup of tea and handed it to Ye Su beside him. "Plus, he killed a demon a month ago, so he deserves to be the number one."
Lu Chenhan
Ye Suyou was stunned for a moment. She hadn't interacted with the hero and heroine for so long that she almost forgot about them.
"What is a Heavenly Demon?" Ye Su asked. In the original novel, she only knew that Yi Xuan was promoted from a true demon to a demon lord, then to a demon lord, and finally to a demon master.
"In the demon world, there are human demons and celestial demons. A cultivator who is possessed by a demon is a human demon, while a celestial demon is a natural-born demon in the demon world. He can fight against a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage right from birth." Xu Chengyu explained as he sat opposite. "A cultivator who can kill a celestial demon usually has to be in the late Nascent Soul stage to do so. This means that Lu Chenhan can defeat a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage by leaps and bounds."
"But he disappeared inexplicably for a period of time in Kunlun Trial Ground two years ago." Xu Chengyu seemed to be thinking about something. "I don't know what happened."
Zhou Yun guessed: "Maybe there will be a fortuitous encounter."
Ma Congqiu, who was at the edge, glanced at her and said, "I almost forgot that Junior Sister Zhou likes Lu Chenhan."
Zhou Yun blushed and said, "Lu Chenhan was born in Kunlun, he is handsome, and he is extremely talented. What's wrong with me liking him?"
"Is he better looking than the two junior brothers from Qianji Sect?" Lu Jiu asked curiously. She was a casual cultivator with not very strong strength and had never had the opportunity to interact with these disciples from big sects before.
Zhou Yun was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly lowered his head: "... He is a little stronger."
Xu Chengyu looked at Zhou Yun's expression and couldn't help but shook his head and laughed. Junior sister's love was only worth a face.
"I'm going out this afternoon." Ye Su turned to look at his fellow apprentices, "You guys stay and look after my little apprentice."
Several people nodded and agreed.
Ye Su had made an appointment with Huang Erqian in the secret realm before. After lunch, she disassembled the talisman-spraying gun and demonstrated it to her fellow junior fellow students once again.
"Big sister, why don't we change it?" Ming Liusha said, holding the talisman-spraying gun.
He was best at using small magical weapons, and he directly suggested adding some hidden weapons into the talisman-spraying gun. Once it was turned on, it could attack and separate people's hands and eyes.
Ming Liusha said slowly, "I've thought it through."
Ye Su: "... No need to use offensive hidden weapons, just destroy the structure inside."
In the afternoon, she followed the address given by Huang Erqian and walked to the door of a remote alley. She looked up at the shaky sign above the alley with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
—It’s actually? Wendong Materials Store.
Ye Su walked into the shop with spider silk hanging on the door. There were all kinds of things piled up in a mess inside, and she didn't see anyone.
The only old cabinet that looked acceptable had a bell on it with a piece of paper taped to it: Ring the bell if necessary.
Ye Su walked over, reached out to grab the bell and shook it.
After a while, a skinny monk in a yellow robe came out and said, "Here I come, here I come!"
"Friend Huang Dao." Ye Su put down the bell and turned to look at Huang Erqian.
"Friend Ye Dao." Huang Erqian showed a warm smile on his face and pulled out a broken chair from the pile of things. "Sit down. What would you like to drink?"
"No need." Ye Su looked at the big hole on the chair. "I didn't see you in Jingyan. Where did Brother Huang go?"
She remembered that in the first secret realm, he wandered around in various fights just to sell talismans.
"This... I'm somewhere else in the secret realm." Huang Erqian said with a smile.
"Do you have a magic weapon to let yourself leave the secret realm early?" Ye Su glanced at him and said, "I just asked casually, don't worry about it."
Huang Erqian did not deny, nor did he admit: "Fellow Daoist Ye, that spray gun?"
"Bring a batch over in a few days." Ye Su pointed to the three words on her robe, "I didn't expect that we could still cooperate hundreds of years later."
Huang Erqian smiled and said more sincerely, "One is about to be abolished, and the other is about to go bankrupt. We should help each other."
"I have a suggestion." Ye Su suddenly asked, "Should Wendong Materials Company directly join Qianjimen?"
Huang Er was stunned, then politely refused: "Wendong Materials Store is just a private materials store."
"At least Quan Dianxing and Zhanjin Sect don't think so." Ye Su tilted his head to look at him, "From the moment Wendong made the deal with Qianjimen, you and us have been completely bound together."
Huang Erqian lowered his head. What she said was right. Wendong Material Store was suppressed to the point where it was only a complete store left because it provided materials for Qianjimen. This was just one of his bases.
"After Wendong Materials Store joins Qianjimen, it can still use your name." Ye Su threw out the bait, "The profits will be 70% and 30% respectively. All Qianjimen refiners will provide you with materials and magic tools on a regular basis. Qianjimen will not restrict your development."
"Magic weapon?" Huang Erqian looked up at her.
Ye Su laughed: "Why do you want to resell talismans and talisman spray guns? I thought Mr. Huang Dao was an ambitious person, but it turns out that he is just forced to make a living."
Huang Erqian's hanging hands moved unconsciously. As the successor of Wendong Materials Store, he had long hated Quandian Store and Zhan Jinzong. Not only did he want to revive Wendong, he also wanted to replace Quandian Store's position. Only in this way could he be proud.
So he traded everything, trying to find the right resources.
But he didn't expect that he would fall into the hands of the disciples of Qianji Sect in the end.
"Your speculation business won't last long." Ye Su's expression became more serious. "Wendong Materials Company has been implicated by Qianjimen. It would be better to tie them together completely. We will all suffer together and prosper together."
This idea came to Ye Su's mind after she saw the plaque of Wendong Materials Store.
Only in this way would she feel at ease doing business with Wendong Materials Store.
