"What's that noise?" Lin Jingge lay down on the grass and glanced at Xiao Shi.

They were supposed to communicate using their sea of ​​consciousness, but for some reason Lin Shu could hear them. The other person's silver eyes were fixed on the cat-shaped creature nestled next to Lin Jingge.

"The missing piece of the Heavenly Book is lit up! There should be a fragment of the Heavenly Book here!" Xiao Shi conveyed a sense of excitement. It didn't know the true purpose of the Heavenly Book and usually regarded it as an encyclopedia of this world.

But what if all the fragments of the Heavenly Book were collected? What kind of existence would the Heavenly Book become? Just thinking about it makes me incredibly excited.

"Then keep an eye out for any movement from the Heavenly Book, and let me know as soon as possible," Lin Jingge said to Xiao Shi.

She didn't know what the Heavenly Book was for, but it was clear that she and Xiao Shi had the same idea.

Lin Shu, who had been lying next to Lin Jinge, suddenly got up and squatted down, tilting his head to stare at Xiao Shi. He was very interested in this little thing, as he had never come into contact with anything like it before.

Without thinking twice, he pounced on Xiao Shi.

Xiao Shi felt someone was watching her from the beginning, but she didn't notice because she was talking to Lin Jingge.

But when it realized what was happening and tried to slip away, Lin Shu pounced on it and pulled it into her arms.

It had already transformed into a little kitten, and Lin Shu's embrace, though small, was just enough to cover it.

When Lin Shu grabbed its neck, Xiao Shi realized that it had lost its connection with Lin Jinge's space and could no longer enter the space.

"Ahhh—" It screamed in fright right there in Lin Jingge's mind.

Lin Shu blinked her silvery-white eyelashes, which were like small fans, and stared curiously at the little book in her hand.

Lin Jingge already knew that Lin Shu could catch Xiao Shi with his bare hands.

Xiao Shi is a form formed by the convergence of energy, which surprised her as to be able to be captured by someone other than herself.

"Ahhh—Gege, help! He's absorbing my energy!" Xiao Shi's screams turned miserable.

Its energy is connected to the space. When Lin Jingge obtained a thousand low-grade spirit stones, she directly gave it one-tenth of them to absorb.

After absorbing it, it fed back into the space, making the space more spacious. But now, only a few seconds later, Lin Shu had already taken away most of this spiritual energy.

Lin Shu found Xiao Shi's screams grating on her ears, so she raised her hand and slapped Xiao Shi's head, saying in a childish but fierce voice, "Shut up!"

Upon hearing Xiao Shi's cry for help, Lin Jingge realized the seriousness of the situation and quickly rescued Xiao Shi from Lin Shu's grasp.

Xiao Shi had just escaped from Lin Shu's grasp and immediately disappeared into the outside world, entering Lin Jingge's space, still feeling a bit scared.

Sensing the disappearance of the spiritual energy fluctuation, Lin Shu looked up at Lin Jingge, who had already sat up, with a puzzled expression.

Before he could even speak, the earth shook violently once more.

There was a loud "bang" from below, and then a series of stones fell down.

Lin Jingge sensed that the spiritual energy in the air had become even richer, and couldn't help but sigh, "The people sent by the Lingxiao Sect are quite capable."

The earth-shaking tremors did not last long.

After all the commotion subsided, the group that had been discussing the spots for the secret realm under the shed rushed forward one by one.

They were in a great hurry, even resorting to their martial arts techniques.

The eldest elder was at the forefront.

These people were all shrewd and capable. Lin Jingge dared not make a sound under their watchful eyes. She could only gather her spiritual energy, lower her breathing, and hide herself firmly in the tall grass at the edge of the cliff.

"Well, has the formation been broken?" The First Elder asked a Lingxiao Sect formation master as soon as he stepped forward.

The protective array was ancient, and as the array was broken, stones fell and dust flew up, leaving the group of people who broke the array looking somewhat disheveled.

However, none of this could dampen the excitement on everyone's faces.

"It's broken!"

Standing here are almost all the best formation masters that can be found in the entire Lingyun City and Lingxiao Sect.

Fortunately, the Zhao family patriarch had already broken a crack in the formation, otherwise this group of people would probably have had to spend a long time.

Once the protective array was broken, the originally dull and gray low-grade spirit field immediately underwent a transformation.

The gate to the secret realm appeared, and to the right of the gate was a stone tablet as tall as a person.

"The Qingyang Secret Realm opens once every ten years and can accommodate a thousand people." The Grand Elder stood at the front and read out the words on the stone tablet.

The four characters "Qingyang Secret Realm" alone occupy most of the space on the stone tablet.

After staring at it for a while, it was as if my soul had been bewitched by the stone tablet; I became somewhat obsessed.

It was just a few words, but the group stared at them for a long time.

None of those present noticed that something within them was being absorbed by the stone tablet, and a black aura emanated from it.

The spot Lin Shu found offered a perfect view of a corner of the stone tablet. He stared at the commotion there, his delicate brows furrowing.

He glanced at the crowd below, then looked back at Lin Jingge, as if he were the only one who had noticed the anomaly.

Fortunately, they were far enough away that the black mist didn't drift over.

How could something like this appear in such a barren little world?

Lin Shu pondered, and the Star Bead appeared out of thin air. He unconsciously twirled the Star Bead in his hand.

Lin Jingge was far away, and from her angle, she couldn't even see the stone tablet, only a somewhat ancient stone gate.

She turned her attention back to Lin Shu.

Seeing his action, she asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Even Lin Shu didn't notice the way he was moving his hands while he was thinking.

He was startled and pulled the beads back from his hand.

As soon as she looked up, she met Lin Jingge's eyes. The two eyes, one big and one small, were close together. Lin Shu saw her own small figure reflected in Lin Jingge's brown eyes, and her heart skipped a beat.

"Gege, there's something wrong with that secret realm. Don't get too close," Lin Shu reminded her.

Worried that Lin Jingge might be interested in the treasures in the secret realm, he added, "There's nothing good in that secret realm; it won't benefit your cultivation."

Lin Shu usually speaks in short sentences, so this was the first time he had spoken such a long, continuous sentence, which made Lin Jingge glance at him a few more times.

Although Lin Jingge felt that Lin Shu would not harm her, she couldn't help but think of the book she had been reading, "The Son-in-Law's Journey to Immortality".

Chu Wang obtained something that enhanced his luck in the secret realm, which greatly improved his luck in cultivation afterward.

Later on, he was so lucky that even the lightning tribulation couldn't strike him; it just missed.

If the treasure Chu Wang obtained was in this secret realm, then she was truly tempted.

Chu Wang stole her family's pharmacopoeia under the rules of the plot and almost drove her whole family to their deaths, so it's not unreasonable for her to take one of her treasures, right?

After Lin Shu finished speaking, he kept staring at Lin Jingge. Seeing that she was interested, the Star Pearl appeared in his hand subconsciously.

The cool temperature of the Star Pearl calmed his somewhat agitated emotions.

A pair of small hands tightly gripped Lin Jingge's clothes: "Sister, you absolutely cannot go to that secret realm."
