Chapter 144 Everyone Gathers at Xuyue Mountain
When Hua Li and Tang Wanwan arrived, a large number of people had already gathered at Xuyue Mountain.
Getting closer and looking at it from this angle allows you to better feel the immense power of antiquity.
Tang Wanwan put away the Xuanfeng Sword. "This secret realm should not open for another two days. It's a good thing that it has appeared now. The longer we stay, the more beneficial it will be for our cultivation."
Huali nodded. She hadn't really prepared anything; it didn't really matter when she started.
After being unexpectedly sobered up, and recalling the scene on the street just now, Karin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Good heavens, that's terrifying!
I never imagined that even after coming to the world of cultivation, I still couldn't escape the fatal problem of my girlfriend and mother falling into the water at the same time.
Fortunately, she was quick-witted.
Just as Huali was silently giving herself a thumbs up in her heart, the crowd suddenly became agitated.
She looked up and saw it was the Lingyin Sect. As usual, a group of four ethereal figures carried the sedan chair, which was about to land.
Ao Bai, perched atop Hua Li's head, remarked, "Tsk tsk, this spectacle is definitely something a female lead would do when she makes her entrance in a novel."
The next second, under the curious gazes of everyone, the female lead, Bingyue, stepped out of the sedan chair. Her pure white dress was spotless, and a thin white veil covered most of her face, revealing only her eyes.
His gaze was cold and aloof, with a deliberately crafted air that kept people at a distance.
Following closely behind Bingyue was Shao Siming of the Hehuan Sect. She was dressed in a deep, blood-red gauze dress, her face as fair as peach blossoms and her skin as white as snow, and she was speaking to someone with her head turned to the side.
A young man dressed in black accompanied her.
The young man had an outstanding figure and refined features. His dark brocade robe seemed to have been planted in the deep night, with only a few very faint silver cloud patterns embroidered on the collar and cuffs, which were the emblem of the Tiangong Workshop.
"Huh? Wasn't it said that Yu Ling, the young master of Tiangong Workshop, was relentlessly pursuing Bingyue? How come she's suddenly getting together with Shao Siming?"
"Just look at Bingyue's icy demeanor; you can tell she has someone else in her heart."
"Sigh, your industry is really messy."
Hua Li looked at Shao Siming with sparkling eyes. The last person to amaze her like this was Qi Zhi; both of them were stunningly beautiful. She was in love.
Shao Siming sensitively noticed a different gaze, and when she looked up, she met the eyes of a little girl who was also dressed in red.
The other person had clear eyes and smiled at her shyly.
"Ah Yu?" Yu Ling saw that she didn't speak and thought that she was angry because she heard the gossip, so she immediately explained, "Bing Yue and I are not like the rumors say. It was because the hidden arrow you ordered at Tianji Pavilion that day was taken by her, and I had no choice but to get involved with her in order to get it back."
Shao Siming nodded to Hua Li, then turned to Yu Ling, "It's alright. This time the secret realm teleportation is random, so please be careful."
A bitter look flashed in Yu Ling's eyes, and she nodded without saying a word.
At the same time, Tang Wanwan, who was waving to Mo Ziyan, suddenly stopped when she glanced at him. "Hey, Huali, you there!"
Huali thought it was some popular celebrity again, and casually turned her head, only to find herself staring into Zhanli's double pupils.
Ao Bai: "Oh dear, what a small world."
"What's going on? Isn't he a Nascent Soul cultivator? Why is he still able to participate in the Prelude to Dreams Secret Realm?" Tang Wanwan's eyebrows furrowed. "I'm going to report him."
Mo Ziyan walked over and said, "After the secret realm opens, anyone who deliberately hides their cultivation level will be automatically kicked out. Since he was able to come, something must have happened."
When the topic of change came up, Huali suddenly thought of the Tree of Cause and Effect.
When Luo Chuan was undergoing his tribulation, the causal lines on that tree shattered and withered. Could it be that Zhan Li was among them, dying by accident?
*
That's right, Zhan Li was one of the unlucky ones.
After parting ways with Ranran in Baiwang Village, he went to Cangming. But before he could find out the whereabouts of the divine artifact, his spiritual power suddenly plummeted from the peak of the Nascent Soul stage to the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage.
In his haste, he had no choice but to return to the Witch Clan. What he discovered upon his return was astonishing. This woman was actually connected to the Tree of Life.
Zhan Li originally intended to go into seclusion immediately, but Ran Ran happened to tell him that Wen Tingyun, the divine artifact of Cangming, would be looking for him, and asked him to enter the Prelude Dream Secret Realm to find a way to bring out the Reincarnation Sundial.
Of the four ancient divine artifacts, the Brahma Tower has already submitted to Huali, while the Blessing Lamp disappeared after Chenliu City. He must get his hands on this Reincarnation Sundial!

"Dream on!"
Tang Wanwan sneered, "If that's really the case, then that's great. We can settle all our old and new scores at once. Once he's inside, we'll find a place to put him in a sack and beat him up."
Mo Ziyan shook his head, "You two mustn't rush to make enemies. Although his spiritual power has weakened, his moves are still ruthless. If you were to truly face him, you might not be a match." He hesitated, then continued, "Wanwan, why don't you and Huali go back..."
"I'm not going!" Tang Wanwan interrupted Mo Ziyan, a rare occurrence for her.
Before the two could say anything more, a series of villainous "hehehe" sounds suddenly came from beside them.
Tang Wanwan turned her head suspiciously and saw that Huali's almond-shaped eyes curved into cunning crescents, and the corners of her lips curled up, revealing two malicious sharp corners.
...In short, his laughter was extremely sinister.
Suddenly remembering what was in the Qiankun bag, Huali said, "He had better behave himself and not cause any trouble, otherwise... hehehehe."
Tang Wanwan: "...Are you alright?"
Hua Li opened her Qiankun bag and beckoned Tang Wanwan to peek in. She then whispered something in Tang Wanwan's ear.
Mo Ziyan's eyes lit up as he looked at his junior sister, who had been confused. The next second, he slowly revealed the same villainous smile.
Mo Ziyan: "..."
Not far away, Zhan Li was planning to find an opportunity after entering the secret realm to make that brat return his compass when he suddenly felt a shiver down his spine.
He turned around blankly and met the gaze of a little girl not far away, who was smiling sinisterly at him.
Huali: "Hehehe."
Tang Wanwan: "Hehehe."
Zhan Li: "?" Are you sick?
As he was about to take a step, veins bulging on his forehead, a shadow suddenly fell over his head, and a celestial horse came hurtling through the clouds.
Shen Yu sat high on horseback, his dark horse tail forming a sharp silhouette against the clouds.
As the celestial horse landed, he leaped down from the stirrups with a light touch of his toes. A few stray strands of hair, freed from their headbands, brushed against his strong brow bone, adding to his youthful sharpness.
Bingyue, who had been protected by four bodyguards in the middle, made a move.
She turned on her toes, her skirt rippling around her feet, and walked towards Chen Yu.
“I’ll be teaming up with you for this secret realm trial,” Bingyue said, her tone familiar.
Tang Wanwan immediately seized the opportunity to complain, "Hey, look, why is Shen Yu so familiar with other women?"
Shen Yu was observing the movements of several formidable rivals he needed to be wary of when his thoughts were suddenly disrupted. Before Bing Yue could get close, he took a large step back.
The boy raised his sharp jaw, his expression one of undisguised surprise and disdain. "Who are you?"
Bingyue's body suddenly stiffened.
She exclaimed, "You don't recognize me? We met once before in Canglan Prefecture. If we team up, it will definitely be a powerful combination."
Shen Yu couldn't be bothered to pay any attention.
He'd seen countless people in Canglan Prefecture. He'd already simulated this Dream Realm a hundred times; every step inside was meticulously planned. This guy thought he could just get something for nothing? Dream on.
Seeing that the other party remained silent, Bingyue raised her chin unwillingly, "I have now reached the peak of the Golden Core stage."
Upon hearing this, those around him immediately expressed their envy.
But the person in question didn't even bother to turn their head after hearing this. They simply glanced at him with their amber eyes, which were filled with the undisguised message, "What's it to me?"
Shen Yu casually patted Tianma's warm neck, his posture as languid as if he were brushing away a speck of dust.
Pegasus flicked its tail in response, and a few specks of stardust from its silver mane splashed onto the hem of Bingyue's skirt as she lifted it.
The flames in Bingyue's eyes were ignited, but Shen Yu didn't even look at her. He just tilted his head and looked at the red-clad girl watching the melon in the distance. "I said, have you seen enough?"
