Chapter 324 What is a Child of Destiny? Nobody's a fool.
"Little Tower, is the place you sensed ahead?" Huali asked as she flew.
The small tower in Qinglin's fall spoke with uncertainty, "It should be a little further ahead, where I can sense a trace of the same origin."
"Although both the Book of Luoshen and I are divine artifacts, we have never seen each other, so I can only vaguely sense something and I'm not sure what it is."
"It's alright, no rush. In my experience, it won't be that easy to find. Let the others go ahead and we'll pick up the pieces later."
After shaking off Mu Feng and the demonic beast, Hua Li immediately chose a place to land.
This place was completely different from the floating flower sea she had passed through. The air was filled with a clear, cool fragrance, like a warm, moist pool under the moonlight, which was refreshing and invigorating.
Instead of flowers, there were countless enormous, elegant ferns on its head.
The feathers, like transparent and enormous feathers, continuously and gracefully unfurl.
If it weren't for the cultivation world, Huali would have thought she had accidentally eaten the Red Umbrella.
As she looked up, she heard faint footsteps and hushed conversations from her side and front.
Four or five cultivators dressed as talismans cautiously approached from the other side.
They bore the marks of their disheveled state, clearly having endured considerable hardship to reach this place.
"Thanks to our senior brother, otherwise we would have been dead this time."
"Shouldn't we wait for our senior brother?"
"The three-eyed demon bat was lured away by Senior Brother's talisman, and he's on his way to bring Zhu Qi back. I've already left a signal along the way, so let's not cause Senior Brother any trouble."
As they walked and talked, the leader paused for a moment when he saw Huali, then nodded.
"Flower Fairy".
"Flower Fairy." The people behind her quickly followed.
Karin: "...Hello everyone."
She listened to it a hundred times, but she still couldn't help but complain, "What the hell is this Flower Fairy?"
Ao Bai perched on Hua Li's head and said, "Is this what you're worrying about now? Host, haven't you noticed? You've gone from being a nobody to a big shot with extremely high profile, someone even Nascent Soul cultivators have to greet."
Karin was taken aback. "Yes."
Hehehe, she's really awesome!
The presence of Hua Li indicated that this place was safe. Several disciples of the Fu Sect exchanged glances and decided to take medicine and regulate their breathing not far from her.
The intermittent conversation drifted on the wind:
"We're not even in the heart of the Starfall Ruins yet, and there are already half-step Nascent Soul level demonic beasts. This secret realm is even more dangerous than the rumors suggest. In my opinion, we can forget about getting the Luo Shen Book."
"Even if we just find some spiritual herbs on the outskirts, it won't be a wasted trip."
"When our senior brother comes back in a little while, we'll talk to him about it."
"I dare not. Senior Brother is too strict. Seeing him is more frightening than seeing Master. Senior Brother is so capable, he will definitely be fine."
"Um... excuse me, I'm just interrupting."
A clear female voice came from behind them, and several people looked over.
"What brings you here, Flower Fairy?"
"What did that three-eyed demon you were talking about look like? Was it a half-step Nascent Soul cultivator?"
"Ah, yes."
The male cultivator who spoke first nodded, blushing, "It resembles a bat, with three red eyes and enormous fleshy wings..."
"Covering up the sky and blocking out the sun," Huali numbly replied.
The male cultivator was taken aback. "Yes, how did you know, Fairy? Which direction did you come from?"
Karin looked in the direction he was pointing, "...It's over."

On the other side, Mu Feng was clearly in an extremely dangerous situation.
He fought the three-eyed bat for several rounds, each collision causing his blood to surge and his internal organs to ache as if they had shifted.
The strength of a half-step Nascent Soul demon beast should not be underestimated; this Starfall Ruins is indeed a place where one has a slim chance of survival.
Fortunately, Huali left in time, thus repaying her for saving his mother.
They had no further connection with each other.
Mu Feng's hand gripping the sword cracked, blood staining the hilt, and his face turned pale.
The coughing could no longer be suppressed, accompanied by a strong, pungent smell of blood.
At the same time, on the other side of the Starfall Ruins.
Qi Ran stopped in her tracks. "Earth-type card, something happened to Mu Feng?"
Xiao Tong immediately checked and said, "Host, calm down. The Earth-type card is not in immediate danger. I have located his position through the card's fluctuations. Let's set off now."
Qi Ran quickly passed through the woods in front of her, but a figure in front of her made her stop abruptly, her pupils shrinking slightly.
Mermaids.
The mermaid who always has red eyes next to Karin.
What happened?
Why can't she meet any of her own lucky children, but in just a few days, she has met Karin's lucky children one after another?
Having experienced Luo Chuan's merciless rejection, Qi Ran felt no goodwill towards anyone around Hua Li at this moment. She turned around and was about to leave.
But Yan Xi seemed to have eyes in the back of his head, and slowly turned around.
Their eyes met, and Qi Ran was slightly taken aback.
The person in front of me was the complete opposite of the usual weak and aggrieved one I had with Karin; instead, he gave me a chilling look.
That's right, it's about sizing up.
In that instant, almost every hair on Qi Ran's body stood on end. She instinctively gripped the card in her hand for a sense of security.
"I have urgent business to attend to, fellow Daoist..."
"Urgent?" the mermaid, whose face was so exquisite it seemed unreal, spoke slowly.
The voice was calm and ethereal, yet it inexplicably sent chills down one's spine: "In such a hurry... to die?"
Qi Ran's internal alarm bells rang: "!! What do you mean?"
Yan Xi did not answer, nor did he look at her again.
"end."
Words become law.
Qi Ran was horrified to find that her body had instantly frozen in place.
This person... this person's ability is the power of words?!
Little Copper immediately shouted, "Host, quickly exchange for points!"
"Exchange..."
"kill."
Without giving her any chance to resist, a single, light word was uttered, accompanied by terrifying force.
In the second before death, Qi Ran's mind went almost blank.
However, just as this invisible power of words was about to annihilate her, a cold and lifeless defensive force suddenly broke through the restraint imposed on Yan Xi, who was in the Tribulation Transcending stage, from the shadows.
The moment the azure light collided with the pure white barrier, the boundary ring on Yan Xi's wrist almost severed his entire soul.
Despite the excruciating pain of being pierced by a thousand arrows, Yan Xi showed no surprise on his face, but instead revealed a crazy smile.
"Just as I expected."
The power emanating from this person is identical to that of the Heavenly Dao that imprisoned his true form in the Abyss of Realms.
No one had ascended to immortality for a thousand years, and even he thought that the way of heaven was unfair, but he never expected that there was another possibility.
He absolutely had to find the Book of the Goddess of the Luo River.
No longer looking at Qi Ran who had fallen to the ground, Yan Xi's deep blue eyes gazed into a certain place in the void, as if they could penetrate the secret realm and see the distant universe beyond the world.
"This is getting more and more interesting," he muttered to himself, his tone carrying a chilling murderous intent.
Almost instantly, Xiao Tong sent a report to headquarters: "People in this world have begun to awaken their consciousness."
"The merfolk are beginning to doubt the host's identity. Who...who exactly is this person?"
Qi Ran gasped for breath, her usually calm eyes finally ignited with fury in that instant.
Again and again!
In any small world in the past, she could light up the cards with ease.
Whether it's a school setting, a domineering CEO, a post-apocalyptic world, ancient times, or even the same cultivation world.
But here it is!
The roles were reversed; she became someone from all over the world, someone to be looked up to.
Qi Ran's knuckles turned white from the exertion, her eyes fixed intently on the figure that was about to disappear before her.
"She's just like me."
"she?"
Qi Ran's heart jumped at that moment.
However, Yan Xi did not turn around. Instead, his voice was as soft as a sigh, yet it carried a resolute force capable of freezing the soul:
"Rules and the world can be overturned, as long as she is well, that's all that matters."
Xiao Tong's eyes widened: "Is he crazy?!"
"This Huali is terrifying! Just who is she? Could she be one of our rivals in the Universe?"
*
The terrifying rosewood is flying around!
She stood on the bronze compass, craning her neck, as the relentless wind slapped her face, making her forget to even use any protective barriers.
"It's been a while already, he's probably really a half-step Nascent Soul cultivator. At most, we can only go over and collect his corpse," Ao Bai said truthfully.
"We have to collect the bodies while they're still warm, otherwise there won't be any left to collect them." Huali increased her speed again.
She genuinely didn't want to have any connection with Qi Ran's luck factor, but she couldn't just deliberately refuse to save him just because she didn't want to.
Especially considering what Mu Feng did just now, it seemed like he was actually trying to help her.
"Always too soft-hearted~ too soft-hearted~" Steward Ao hummed a song.
But right now, King Pear is physically in Cao's camp but his heart is with Liu Bei. "Looking at it this way, the monsters in the Starfall Ruins are all heavyweights. If this young master encounters one, won't he suffer a loss?"
Steward Ao paused in his humming, and Fat Cat rolled over. "That's right, Young Master was indeed in danger. Luckily, we gave them the spiritual treasure beforehand. The opening of the secret realm was too sudden."
Hua Li nodded, "After we get Mu Feng out, we still need to go find the young master first."
The Luoshen Book can be taken back if someone else takes it, but she only has one handsome young master.
“And there’s also the little bird,” Huali sighed. “The little bird has always lived in the Cangming Sea, so this is like leaving its home. Will it be able to adapt to entering the secret realm?”
Ao Bai: "......"
Huali asked worriedly, "Won't he be bullied?"
Ao Bai: "......"
That must be a level 10 filter.
*
The battle intensified, and the half-step Nascent Soul demon beast became increasingly ferocious with each fight.
Even though half of the bone wing had been cut off by Mu Feng, the corrosive sound waves were like invisible hammers, constantly bombarding Mu Feng's protective aura.
Finally, after a hard clash, Mu Feng's spiritual energy suddenly stagnated, and he inevitably staggered backward, revealing a huge opening.
The three-eyed bat's blood-red eyes suddenly lit up with a bloodthirsty light. Seizing this hard-won opportunity, its massive body, like a mountain of flesh, pressed down fiercely!
Seeing the giant mouth full of fangs open to its fullest extent, Mu Feng's pupils shrank sharply. He tried his best to raise his sword to block, but the intense pain in his body and the depletion of his spiritual power made him a beat slower!
At the critical moment, a clear shout came from behind—
"Ksitigarbha Entanglement, emerge!"
