"Fellow Daoist, may I have a word with you in private?"

The unremarkable middle-aged man shook his head, then took out a jade slip, placed it between his eyebrows, and after engraving it, handed it to the aloof fairy in front of him, who seemed untouched by the mortal world. "What you want to know is inside. As for anything else, I really don't know."

After thanking Ouyang Yanyu, she took the sound transmission conch, the communication jade tablet, and the jade slip back to the Thousand Machine House.

As she examined the contents of the jade slip, she activated the array on the sound transmission conch shell, wishing they could reunite just like that.

"Master, Junior Uncle, Junior Sister and the others have indeed come here. However, they followed me into the Black Maple Forest, but only Third Junior Brother, Fourth Junior Brother and Junior Sister are here. Senior Brother is not here."

Meng Tianyuan reached out and took the sound transmission conch shell. "Have you tried it?"

Ouyang Yanyu nodded: "The Black Maple Forest is rather strange. They may have accidentally gone somewhere else, so we can't contact them for the time being."

Putting aside the fact that she entered the Demon-Slaying Land from the Black Maple Forest, didn't her master and the others also enter that strange secret realm from the Black Maple Forest?

Although Ye Sisi and the other two may have entered these two places, who knows if the Black Maple Forest is connected to other places?

"Let me see the jade slip."

Ouyang Yanyu quickly handed the two copied jade slips to Meng Tianyuan and Yaoyan respectively. They contained information about Ye Sisi and the other three.

After reading it, Meng Tianyuan calmly said, "Let's stay here and wait for Sisi and the others to come out. Otherwise, searching around like this will be going in circles, and we'll never see the end of it."

Ouyang Yanyu and Yaoyan nodded, having no objections.

Ye Sisi and the other two lay quietly in the calm pink ocean, surrounded by a dazzling aura as bright as the moon, making it impossible for anyone to look directly at them.

The aura emanating from the three of them was becoming increasingly powerful, much stronger than when they first broke through to the Divine Realm, and even showed signs of directly breaking through to the next realm.

The biggest changes and the biggest beneficiaries are actually the national treasures and the hidden heads. The figures of the hidden heads are no longer transparent vortexes, and the blurry figures have begun to solidify.

Each of the magnificent feathers unfolds gracefully; if paired with dazzling flames, it truly evokes the image of a phoenix rising from the ashes.

As for the national treasure, its appearance remains unchanged; it still looks like an adorable panda. However, the aura of a mythical beast emanating from its body is so powerful that it causes the surrounding seawater to surge.

However, as the auras of the three people and two beasts grew stronger, the mysterious space standing in the sky gradually began to tremble, and the edges of the space even showed signs of dissolving.

The beautiful woman's figure reappeared, looking at the gradually dissolving space with a sigh. It was truly a battle between gods, where mortals suffered.

She gently raised her hand, and the three people and two beasts, who were still unconscious, floated up. The spiritual light surrounding them slowly dissipated, and their breathing gradually became stable.

The beautiful woman then raised her hand, and a spatial gate appeared. After thinking for a moment, she decided to place them in an uninhabited area of ​​the Holy Spirit Domain.

Some things shouldn't be done too obviously, lest they backfire.

Ye Sisi felt an itch on her face and suddenly remembered their previous situation, so she quickly sat up.

The movement was so fast that it knocked the clown who was tickling her face with his wings flying.

Ye Sisi was stunned, looking at the palm-sized, five-colored phoenix in front of her with some confusion.

What the heck? Where did this phoenix come from?

No, this doesn't seem to be that godforsaken place. Where am I? What happened?

And her cultivation level... damn it, how did she get to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm? She doesn't want to improve her strength, really, not at all.

Which bastard is it that keeps plotting against her again and again? Is this never going to end?

Suppressing my frustration, I quickly looked around.

The national treasure lay fast asleep not far from her, while Ye Shubai and Lin Shuangluo lay unconscious on the side. Only the palm-sized, five-colored phoenix flapped its wings and flew triumphantly to her.

Ye Sisi was somewhat incredulous: "You're the one hiding behind the scenes?"

Hiding its head, it proudly raised its head and said, "Dad, I'm a pure Phantom Phoenix now! Aren't you surprised? Aren't you excited?!"

Ye Sisi was indeed shocked. To be honest, she had never known what the Hidden Head looked like before. The appearance of the Phantom Clan was so strange that it was hard to describe.

But the little phoenix looks quite pleasing to the eye now. Its colorful feathers are gorgeous and beautiful. With a gentle flap of its wings, it looks slender and perfect. It's just that it can't speak, otherwise it always gives people a cheeky feeling.

"Hey, Zangtou, can't you be a little more ambitious? You've already reverted to your ancestral form as a phantom phoenix, how come your cultivation has regressed?"

As Ye Sisi spoke, she went to check on her two senior brothers. She breathed a sigh of relief when she found that they were just unconscious. Moreover, their cultivation had increased even more than hers, and they had already stabilized at the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

It must be said that this inexplicable trip to the secret realm was a great opportunity, except for her, of course.

With each improvement in her cultivation, she loses more and more of herself, becoming less and less like herself; more precisely, she becomes less and less like a human being.

"Dad, how could you rub salt into my wound? I had no choice but to fall back to the Nascent Soul Realm. This time I only achieved half Nirvana, but the benefits are still great. Every time I advance to a higher realm, my bloodline will become purer, and ascension will only be a matter of time."

Ye Sisi listened to the mutterings of the hidden head while checking on the national treasure's condition. Judging from the national treasure's appearance, the time when it wakes up should be the time when it breaks through the Nascent Soul stage.

It's important to understand that cultivation is far more difficult for demonic beasts than for humans. After all, they have an innate advantage in lifespan, so it's understandable that their cultivation path is more challenging.

Just then, the spatial ring vibrated; it was the sound transmission conch that Zhou Yuze had given her.

As she activated the voice transmission, she used the map of Qinglan Domain to determine her location. Since she could contact the outside world, it proved that they had already come out. As for how they came out, she didn't know and didn't want to find out.

She was stunned when she heard the sound coming from inside the conch shell.

"Senior Brother, Junior Sister, Third Junior Brother, and Fourth Junior Brother, are you all?"

Ye Sisi quickly snapped out of her daze, so happy she almost jumped for joy: "Second Senior Sister, it's me! Where are you now? We'll come find you right away."
