Chapter 119: The Eighth Level of Qi Refining
A month later, in a valley somewhere in the Juelan Secret Realm.
Xie Liuyin's long sword flashed a cold light in the air, instantly cutting off the head of the monster in front of him.
The huge monster's head rolled to the ground with a muffled sound, and the monster's blood piled up on the ground, almost forming a pool of blood.
This bloody scene did not affect Xie Liuyin at all. She quickly shook off the blood on the sword and sheathed the sword with a turn of her wrist.
Qiu Yu, who had come out with her to hunt for treasure, saw that the monster had been dealt with, so he immediately flew towards a big tree not far away and quickly cut off a large piece of spiritual honey.
The honey was crystal clear purple and looked like flowing amethyst. The sweet scent quickly penetrated into Qiu Yu's nose, making her swallow her saliva.
"It's worthy of being purple water lily nectar, the taste is really tempting." Qiu Yu couldn't help but sigh.
Jiang Shan, who was in charge of the meeting, urged: "Don't talk about this, let's get out of here quickly. The effect of the animal repellent powder is about to disappear. If we don't leave now, I'm afraid that group of spirit bees will fly back!"
"Right away!" Qiu Yu quickly put the nectar into the jade bottle, and a group of people quickly evacuated the valley.
Shortly after they left, the animal repellent powder on the ground became completely ineffective, and the buzzing sound of flying insects flapping their wings could be heard from afar.
A large group of spirit bees flew over, so densely that it was terrifying.
After returning to the nest, they soon discovered that half of the nectar they had worked so hard to brew was missing.
The queen bee was furious and started looking for the culprit.
They turned around and saw the monster black bear lying on the ground, already dead beyond death.
They all knew this bear. This guy always came to their territory to steal the nectar. Most of the fruits of their hard work over the years were stolen by this guy.
Moreover, this monster acted very domineeringly and killed many of their spirit bees.
Although the queen bee has developed intelligence, she is not smart. She can just think.
Seeing the black bear lying nearby, it guessed that the black bear must have stolen its honey, so it immediately ordered the other spirit bees to tear the black bear to pieces in order to avenge the grudge over the years.
When the monster's stiff corpse was broken into pieces, the valley finally returned to peace, and the group of spirit bees happily returned to their nest.
The real murderer had already fled with Ling Mi.
"We've got the spiritual honey. Do you want anything else? Let's take a day's rest and get it as soon as possible." After retreating from the valley for dozens of miles, Xie Liuyin found a cave sheltered from the wind, and the few of them rested there temporarily.
The other people who were asked shook their heads. In the past month, Xie Liuyin had been dragging them around like crazy, searching for treasures everywhere.
They grabbed all the good things they liked in one go.
Now, with less than a month left before the secret realm closes, they have already visited most of the Juelan Secret Realm, with only the northern snowfield left to visit.
Today's purple water caltrop nectar is the treasure that Qiu Yu has set his eyes on. This thing is the main raw material for alchemists to refine beauty pills.
It can not only repair scars, but also has the effect of whitening and beautifying the skin. It is very popular among female monks and the price is very high.
Qiu Yu searched around and finally set her eyes on the purple water lily nectar and wanted to take some back to drink with it.
Of course, Xie Liuyin would not refuse his niece's request, and simply took her to look for nectar.
They were also lucky because a female cultivator from Yuxing City who was accompanying them actually brought a bag of animal repellent powder, which came in handy and drove away all the spirit bees.
Only then did they successfully obtain the spiritual honey.
"Junior Master, we actually have plenty of time. There's no need to rush to look for the treasure." Jiang Shan advised.
He had been really tormented during the past month. Every day when he opened his eyes, he was either urged by Xie Liuyin to hurry on his way, or dragged by her to fight with monsters.
If he was not a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he would have probably collapsed long ago.
Every time Jiang Shan felt that he was too tired to hold on any longer, he would see Xie Liuyin walking in front with great energy, leading them forward.
Jiang Shan was very curious, how come she, a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage, had better endurance than himself, who was in the Foundation Establishment Stage?
However, such hard work is not without benefits. At least Jiang Shan's realm has been loosened. If the secret realm is not really unsafe, Jiang Shan would probably be able to advance to the middle stage of foundation building.
The same goes for Qiu Yu. Her comprehension is higher than Jiang Shan's, but she is still suppressing her cultivation and not making any progress, otherwise she would have been bounced out of the secret realm long ago.
Listening to Jiang Shan's half-complaining words, Xie Liuyin remained calm: "Time is enough for you, but not enough for me."
Jiang Shan and Qiu Yu could only see the surface, but Xie Liuyin knew clearly that the treasure that had provided great help to Xie Mingzhu in the previous life would soon appear.
When the treasure comes into the world, the currently relatively peaceful Juelan Secret Realm will erupt into a real melee.
By then, let alone searching for treasure leisurely like they are now, they probably won’t even be able to get a good night’s sleep.
The group of lunatics who want to fight for the treasure will indiscriminately attack everyone in the secret realm.
That was why Xie Liuyin was so anxious, urging everyone to collect the good things they were interested in early, so that they would not have time to care about other things later.
Qiu Yu and Jiang Shan have heard this explanation from Master Xie many times.
They were all very curious about what the Junior Master was worried about, but he refused to speak.
If it were when they first entered the secret realm, the two probably wouldn't believe what Xie Liuyin said, and might even mock her for being pretentious behind her back.
But now, with Xie Liuyin's help, he has obtained so many treasures and escaped several fatal disasters.
They have already regarded Xie Liuyin as the real leader and are completely convinced of him.
So even though Junior Master Xie refused to tell them the reason, the two of them thought that Junior Master Xie might have some unspeakable secret and was not in a position to tell them for the time being, so they had no intention of continuing to ask.
"By the way, has Junior Master's cultivation reached the eighth level of Qi Refining now?" Seeing that the atmosphere was stagnant, Jiang Shan quickly changed the subject.
After being reminded by him, several people in the Foundation Establishment Stage immediately looked at Xie Liuyin.
Her aura was very steady, like a big rock, thick and powerful.
If everyone hadn't seen it with their own eyes, who would have dared to believe that a cultivator could actually seize treasures and advance at the same time in a secret realm.
It only took more than a month to directly advance two small realms!
In Jiang Shan's opinion, those so-called geniuses touted by other sects are nothing in front of their junior uncle!
Xie Liuyin nodded after hearing this: "Actual combat is indeed the best way to improve strength. My cultivation has indeed improved a lot, and I finally have more power to protect myself in the secret realm."
These words made several people in the Foundation Establishment Stage blush a little. The young master uncle in front of them was a god-like being who crushed them all with only the cultivation level of the sixth stage of Qi Refining!
If the other party could one day reach the Golden Core or Nascent Soul stage, they couldn't imagine how powerful she would become.
However, before Xie Liuyin becomes a completely strong man, the first thing they have to face is the riot in the Juelan Secret Realm!
