Jiang Yuebai first picked up a palm-sized ochre square seal. The material was not gold but jade, and it was carved with a strange insect that looked a bit like a mayfly, with its wings spread, and there were dizzying patterns on it.
It looks like cloud seal characters and demon writing, so strange that it is hard to describe. It can be barely recognized as the word "Mi Chen".
Jiang Yuebai didn't know whether it was because his vision was distorted or the pattern caused the space to distort, but he felt that the air around the seal was floating faintly.
And there are some scratches on it, just like the marks on the keys.
Jiang Yuebai wiped off the mark of divine consciousness on it, and after re-refining it, he discovered that it was actually an ancient space treasure from ancient times, not a magic weapon refined today.
The cultivator before was able to ignore all obstacles and burrow into the ground instantly by using ordinary spiritual energy. In fact, this ancient treasure should be activated by the power of space, which will be more effective.
As Shen Mingjing was beside him, Jiang Yuebai couldn't try it out without any hesitation.
During the ritual, Jiang Yuebai felt that this seal could amplify the power of space that she currently possessed. Combined with the characteristics of the ancient treasure itself, perhaps if it was fully activated, it could directly pass through some large formations and restrictions, and even leave the Kunxu Secret Realm.
"This is a great bargain."
The magic weapons of ancient monks are extremely rare to be passed down to this day because of the different materials used, engraved runes and manufacturing methods.
The power varies. The high ones, like her Ningguang Mirror, are still a powerful weapon even in the Nascent Soul stage. The low ones are just like ordinary magic weapons nowadays, nothing special.
Jiang Yuebai put away the Mi Chen Seal, making sure he could get it at any time.
The other two head-sized golden scimitars are named "Zhe Liu", shaped like two willow leaves. They are high-level magic weapons, and are considered top magic weapons under spiritual weapons. They are made of gold but can produce water.
When activated, it breaks the wind silently and is very sharp. Moreover, the two scimitars can be combined into a circle, becoming a magic weapon to trap the enemy. Once the enemy's body or the enemy's magic weapon is circled, it can exert the characteristics of water and absorb part of the damage.
After Jiang Yuebai refined the ritual again, the two scimitars circled around her body, creating ripples.
Then Jiang Yuebai had an idea, and the two scimitars shrank into the size of bracelets and were put on her wrists.
After refining the two items, Jiang Yuebai glanced at Shen Mingjing who was still sitting cross-legged and regulating his breathing in the distance. Yan Hongyu was sitting on the stone opposite him, staring at him without blinking, her chin supported, her eyes as tender as water.
If Shen Mingjing's forehead had not twitched suspiciously, Jiang Yuebai would have thought that he was really focused and didn't care about Yan Hongyu's straightforward appreciation.
Jiang Yuebai closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, but in fact he sank his mind into the lotus cave.
She had secretly taken them back, and they were resting in the Lotus Cave, digesting the various fragments they had eaten along the way.
Xiaolu was the same, happily enjoying the ghost that Jiang Yuebai had specially caught for it.
This time, everyone finally had a full meal.
Jiang Yuebai's spiritual consciousness turned into an avatar, piecing together the five incomplete maps collected by Jixiang. The incomplete maps were too incomplete and scattered, and one could only vaguely feel that it was a map of a fairy palace on the sea.
Because the corners are covered with wavy and vortex patterns, they represent the sea, rivers, and transmission entrances and exits.
The main part of the drawing is seriously missing, with only a few scattered words next to it, which are ancient demon characters.
"Kun... Peng..."
Jiang Yuebai seemed to be thinking about something. Kunpeng was one of the ancestors of sea monsters in the ancient times, even older than the dragon clan.
Before coming in, she knew that the word "Kun" in the Kunxu Secret Realm referred to Kunpeng, but the secret realm had been opened many times and no one had ever found anything about Kunpeng.
But if you think about it carefully, if Immortal Lord Chongming successfully obtained the Water Dao Fruit because of the Kunxu Secret Realm, then he may have found something left behind by Kunpeng.
Jiang Yuebai sighed and put away the incomplete map. The Immortal Palace was built in the secret realm nearly ten thousand years ago. This place was like the back garden of Immortal Lord Chongming.
But Shen Mingjing looked so confident, it was obvious that he knew there were still good stuff in the Kunxu Palace.
"Kun is water? It turns into Peng and becomes a bird. If I could put a wisp of Kunpeng's spirit into the Taihe Umbrella, it would be perfect..."
Jiang Yuebai really dares to think so much that he is drooling just thinking about it.
An hour passed quickly, and there was no day or night in the secret realm, only eternal dusk.
After they were ready, they started climbing the mountain.
Shen Mingjing has three fairy palace tokens on his body. Jiang Yuebai has three on the surface, but actually he has three more in his pocket.
As soon as Jiang Yuebai stepped onto the bone stairs, the wind blew up suddenly, waves of ghostly howls rose from the mountains, and large flocks of black crows were startled and flew away, crying towards the blood-red sky with the setting sun.
Jiang Yuebai suddenly had the same feeling as when she was a child and first stepped onto the Tianyan Sect's steps to immortality. The power that came from nowhere was like a mountain, pressing heavily on her, making every step she took difficult.
But when she felt like resisting, the three fairy palace tokens on her body would emit a cool breeze like a summer spring, refreshing her mind and making her feel light all over.
Feeling that there was a terrifying existence in the mountain ready to make a move, Jiang Yuebai raised her hand and released the two willow-breaking scimitars that she had just refined to surround her body. The Taihe umbrella flew up, and white feathers fluttered in the rain, flying around her and Shen Mingjing.
The two looked at each other, and while Cantian Peak had not yet fully "awoke", they both improved their physical skills to the extreme and rushed towards the top of the mountain along the white bone stairs.
There was a mountain wall on one side and a cliff on the other. After they stepped on the mountain, they could not fly in the air except by running fast.
Occasionally, evil ghosts and zombies would suddenly rush out from the mountain wall on the way, but they were all strangled by the feathers on the Taihe umbrella and could not get close to the two of them at all.
Shen Mingjing followed Jiang Yuebai with some difficulty. Seeing that she kept her promise and took good care of him, he said to her, "The incarnation from the Xiong family is called Xiong Yanhong. He is the younger brother of Xiong Yanqing, the chief elder of the Xiong family. Most importantly, Xiong Yanhong and Wen Su, the immortal servant beside Immortal Lord Chongming, are old acquaintances."
Jiang Yuebai paused for a moment, then swung out two willow-breaking curved swords, cutting the zombie that had crawled halfway up the cliff wall in half.
Jiang Yuebai had never heard of Xiong Yanhong's name, but she remembered the old man who had chased Mo Baichun and Zhuge Ziqian last time.
"You know so much!"
Shen Mingjing followed and said with a smile, "I must have something that can make up for my lack of strength."
The evil spirits around were all killed, and Jiang Yuebai continued to move forward.
"So you told me before that it was useless to expose the Xiong family, because there was Wen Su as an insider?"
Shen Mingjing nodded, "That's right. If you have any plans for Xiong Yanhong, it's best to act right after entering the fifth floor. Not too early, not too late."
Jiang Yuebai didn't say anything. Shen Mingjing could actually guess this. Was she so obvious about it
It seems that she also needs to learn from Zhuge Ziying's expressionless face, suppressing all her thoughts and not showing them on her face.
Of course she had some plans for that god-transforming being. He dared to suppress his cultivation and enter the secret realm. That was a perfect opportunity. As long as she and Zhuge Ziying joined forces, they would be able to control Xiong Yanhong.
Afterwards, she would use the "Mirage Demon Art" and the Dream Demon to create a realistic illusion for Xiong Yanhong, so that Xiong Yanhong would have the opportunity to use his own essence to make medicine for her.
If successful, she wouldn't have to endure too much hardship and could break through the bottleneck in one fell swoop and enter the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.
See you tomorrow~
