Upon waking up, Lin Xiaoman found herself transmigrated, and to a fantastical, vibrant cultivation world at that! Fortunately, she possessed...
Chapter 312: Phantom Sound Secret Realm
It took more than half a month to travel from Tianyan Sect to Yunmeng City. During this period, Lin Xiaoman did not eat or drink, and drew talismans frantically. He finally accumulated some intermediate teleportation talismans and intermediate concealment talismans. He also learned the barrier-breaking talismans a long time ago and accumulated more than a hundred of them.
As for other offensive talismans such as thunder talismans, weakness talismans, etc., she had some left in stock before, but now she doesn’t have much time, and she hopes that she won’t need to use them too many times when entering the secret realm.
When they arrived at Yunmeng City, they were taken to a cliff outside the city near the Misty Forest. Many monks from other sects had already gathered there.
As soon as Lin Xiaoman got off the spaceship, she heard a familiar voice. It was Chen Shuyan. Her eyes lit up.
"Xiaoman, here, here."
"You didn't go in, that's great."
Lin Xiaoman was extremely surprised. Since she didn't reply to his message, Lin Xiaoman thought she had also been sucked into the secret realm.
"No, the secret realm had already been closed when I came here, but I saw the scene of the seniors taking action. Hehe, it was amazing."
Chen Shuyan replied to Lin Xiaoman in the circle of friends, but she guessed that this guy was so engrossed in drawing talismans that he didn't see the message at all.
This is indeed the case. These days, Lin Xiaoman is either drawing talismans or practicing. He practices to relieve the fatigue of drawing talismans. As soon as he recovers, he continues to draw. Sometimes he even feels as if he has returned to the first year of Wuji City, when he was drawing talismans crazily to pay off his debts.
But even so, the time was too short, and she could not prepare many talismans. Now, the talismans in her storage bag, including those left from before, were only barely enough for ordinary use. But she still felt uneasy, after all, there were too many unknowns in this secret realm.
"You are coming here this time to go to the Fantasy Sound Secret Realm, right?"
Chen Shuyan continued to ask, and Lin Xiaoman nodded.
"Well, you went too, right?"
She didn't even have to guess. With Chen Shuyan's personality, he probably wouldn't miss such a thing.
Sure enough, the next moment she nodded with a smile, "Great, how about we team up?"
"Of course, but I don't have many talismans prepared this time."
"It's okay, I'm here, I'll make sure you're okay."
Chen Shuyan patted his chest and made a promise with great enthusiasm, which made Lin Xiaoman laugh and feel helpless. She pulled her to the main force and listened to the "leader" above speak.
This time the matter was urgent and they were not given much time, so everyone set up camp on the spot to rest and wait for other monks who had not arrived yet.
“Shuyan, I’ll go draw the talisman first. Prepare more and feel more at ease.”
Since she had to wait here, she would of course seize the opportunity to draw talismans, and the more she could draw, the better.
Lin Xiaoman went to her tent and began to draw some basic talismans. The environment here was complex and the spiritual energy was relatively chaotic, which was not the best environment for drawing talismans. Even though she had arranged a formation, in such an environment, the intermediate teleportation talismans and intermediate concealment talismans that she used to draw with a low success rate were not suitable and would affect efficiency.
She planned to draw more thunder talismans and weakness talismans. Her success rate in drawing these talismans, especially the thunder talismans, was almost 99%. She could even achieve this success rate by drawing with both hands. This was thanks to the experience she had accumulated from drawing these talismans crazily in Wuji City over the past few years.
Ten days passed in a flash, and finally all the monks who were coming gathered together, and everyone was ready to enter the Fantasy Sound Secret Realm.
Lin Xiaoman took advantage of these ten days to draw a lot of earth-level primary talismans such as thunder talismans and weakness talismans. She also took the time to draw some barrier-breaking talismans. She felt that these talismans would be very useful in the Fantasy Sound Secret Realm.
And this was indeed the case. As soon as she entered the secret realm, she felt the surroundings were noisy and she could even hear the noise of traffic.
Um?
"Baibai, did you hear any sound?"
After entering the secret realm, Lin Xiaoman called Baibai out immediately.
Baibai is extremely sensitive to spiritual energy. Although her combat ability is average, if she encounters an illusion and wakes up Baibai, she can find the right direction based on Baibai's sensitivity to spiritual energy.
"Squeak, no."
As soon as Bai Bai finished speaking, he shook his head, "Zhi! So much spiritual energy."
Lin Xiaoman blinked. Very good. She and Baibai were both immersed in an illusion. She said that why she could hear the hustle and bustle of traffic now, it was all such a distant memory.
A barrier-breaking talisman appeared in his hand, and he activated it and flew out. In an instant, the obstacles in front of his eyes and the sounds in his ears all disappeared.
"Squeak? Oh, it's gone, my baby."
Bai Bai's disappointed voice rang in his ears. Lin Xiaoman didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and stuffed a piece of dried meat into his mouth. "It's an illusion, let's go."
It is worthy of being called the Fantasy Sound Secret Realm, it is truly a fantasy land everywhere.
Now she had to go to the center and work together with everyone to break the illusion. On the way, she also had to leave a mark agreed upon between them for Shuyan to make it easier for them to find each other.
"Squeak, what a pity, Master, I just saw so many treasures."
"But they are all fake. There is nothing to regret."
"Well, not necessarily. Maybe we'll find it in the future."
Lin Xiaoman smiled and shook her head, ignoring what he said. She had to be extremely vigilant on her journey, as any blade of grass or tree along the way could trigger an illusion. Sometimes it was so hard to guard against that she didn't even realize she had fallen into an illusion.
She stuffed a cooling pill into her mouth to keep herself awake. This thing was also a way to deal with illusions, but its level was not high enough, so it could not break the more powerful illusions, but at least it could serve as a warning.
Along the way, just as she had guessed, she not only encountered monsters, but also encountered illusions from time to time. Lin Xiaoman used barrier-breaking talismans one after another and attacked with thunder talismans one after another, and reaped a lot of rewards.
However, after wandering around for over an hour, she didn't see a single cultivator trapped in the secret realm, not even a Taoist figure. Lin Xiaoman began to wonder if she was actually in an illusion.
"Baibai, do you think this place is real?"
On the way, after Lin Xiaoman knocked another fifth-level monster away, he continued to rush to the center and couldn't help but ask Bai Bai.
"Squeak? Real? Master is real."
"Well, isn't it something else?"
"Hmm... I don't know. It seems to be true but not true. Some of it is true and some of it is not."
After hearing what he said, Lin Xiaoman's heart skipped a beat. No way, is this really an illusion?
However, the monsters she killed along the way were real, and she used up so many talismans, and the spiritual plants she obtained were also genuine.
At the moment, she didn't find anything, and Baibai couldn't explain it. There was no way, she could only keep moving forward and reach the center first.
