Chu Yao did not go directly to the next level. She had some realization in her heart, so she sat down cross-legged on the spot and began to digest the various insights she had just gained.
After achieving the Golden Elixir, in addition to daily accumulation, sudden enlightenment also plays a major role in breaking through the realm.
She also didn't expect that the Yuxuan Secret Realm would give her such a great opportunity!
After being silent for a while, Chu Yao stood up, his eyes bright, and he was not far from the middle stage of the Golden Core!
When she looked around, Senior Sister Bai was already standing beside her, and it looked like she had just come out of seclusion.
However, Senior Yuqingzi disappeared without a trace and no one knew where he went.
Seeing her looking at him, Bai Yuejian smiled slightly: "But there is an opportunity for a breakthrough?"
"It's just the finishing touch." Chu Yao nodded. "Is Senior Yuqing not here?"
"I don't know where he went. But since these three stone doors are still there, he must not have gone far." Bai Yuejian looked at the second door.
"The first level is about questioning one's heart, testing one's willpower. The second level might involve a battle of wits." Bai Yuejian performed a meditation technique, his state constantly improving. "Let's go?"
"Let's go!" Chu Yao licked her lips. She had already tasted the sweetness in this secret realm.
The two were fully prepared and jumped towards the second gate.
——
Chu Yao's eyes blurred, and the next moment she had arrived at a desolate land.
All that meets the eye is a broken and desolate plain, on which are scattered broken soldiers and armor, human bones, and the corpses of insects.
The dark and gray sky hung down to the end of the earth in the distance, and the clouds were faintly tinged with dark red blood, which was extremely depressing.
Chu Yao scanned the area with her spiritual sense and found that she seemed to be the only one here, and it was surprisingly quiet.
This seems to be an ancient battlefield that has been abandoned for a long time.
Is this... a return to the insect swarm battle ten thousand years ago?
But there was no sign of any living creature.
Chu Yao walked forward cautiously in the ruins, looking carefully at the mess on the ground.
The short swords and long spears stuck in the ground were all covered in rust, and the human bones and insect corpses were half buried in the ground.
High in the distant sky, in a corner that Chu Yao had not noticed, the shadow of an old man emerged. It was Yu Qingzi.
He did not leave, but entered this level. As the master of the secret realm, this little thing was easy.
At this moment, he stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes full of anticipation.
He was very satisfied with their performance in the first round. In the Dharma Ending Age, the emergence of such a stunning female cultivator was truly a blessing for our generation!
However, this second level is not so easy. I wonder what kind of surprises these two will bring?
Yu Qingzi stretched out a hand and gently pointed his finger in the direction of Chu Yao.
A ball of spiritual mist suddenly appeared on the ground not far in front of Chu Yao.
She was still exploring carefully, but this sudden change made her heart jump. She took three steps back, and the Purple Brilliant Sword was already floating at her side, as if she was facing a formidable enemy.
A figure slowly walked out of the fog. It looked like a woman, about the same height as Chu Yao.
When this person was completely exposed outside the fog, Chu Yao was stunned.
The woman has a thin waist and long legs, a short top and hot pants, and a long high ponytail... Isn't this her?
This woman looked exactly like Chu Yao! There was even an identical purple sword flying beside her!
So this is the trial...
Chu Yao fell into deep thought. She didn't move, and neither did the other party. They remained in a silent stalemate on this ancient battlefield.
She turned her wrist, and a soul-collecting knife flew out and hit the woman.
As she expected, the opponent also used the same technique, and the two ghost blades collided in mid-air, making a loud explosion.
The same realm, the same Taoism...
Chu Yao did not stop while thinking about countermeasures. With a thought, the Purple Sword whistled out, and purple clouds flew up, raising dust along the way.
The opponent also adopted the same method, and a sword flashed at his side.
The two purple swords collided with each other, evenly matched and in a stalemate.
The same goes for the magic weapon...tsk, this is difficult!
Just when Chu Yao wanted to use other means, the other party actually took the initiative to attack!
The woman's hand gestures changed, and her figure suddenly became vague. Chu Yao immediately realized that the other party was using the Night Walking Technique.
Chu Yao used stillness to control movement, her mind alert to her surroundings. When she heard movement behind her, she shouted:
"Xiao Zi!"
Xiao Zi, who had been dormant in the dantian for a long time, broke out of the body and attacked behind him with a biting cold air.
What surprised Chu Yao was that the other party also had Xiao Zi!
The two little purples exchanged fire in mid-air, and a thin layer of frost formed on the surrounding ground.
The "fake Chu Yao" raised his right hand, retracted the Purple Brilliant Sword in his hand, and chopped it towards Chu Yao's head.
Chu Yao also retracted the sword, raised it slightly and held it horizontally to block the attack.
Just as she was about to counterattack, the opponent's left hand turned into a palm and slapped her abdomen with a ghostly aura.
Chu Yao used the same move, and after the two of them faced each other, they both took half a step back. Their strength was equal and they were evenly matched.
By the way, this technique of summoning ghosts and changing their shapes is called Netherworld Myriad Things, and it is the main combat method in the Netherworld Sutra.
Chu Yao had fought with others before, driving ghosts to possess them, transforming palms, knives, swords, and shields, all of which were done in this way.
The higher the realm, the more changes there are and the stronger the power.
The Soul-Gathering Sword can also be seen as one of the uses of the Netherworld.
It looks like the other party has even grasped the essence of his own Taoism.
High in the sky, Yu Qingzi watched the fight between Chu Yao and "Chu Yao" with relish, with the corners of his mouth raised, like a naughty old boy.
Perhaps he had been quiet in this underground secret realm for too long and had nothing fun, otherwise he would not have had the leisure to watch the two young Jindan people break through the levels.
“Haha, this secret realm of Taoism is so difficult that even among the Yuxuan disciples back then, less than one in a hundred could pass through it!”
Yu Qingzi stroked his beard proudly: "The test here is not just a battle of magic, it depends on whether this little girl who practices ghost magic can see it..."
He was halfway through his words when he heard a "bang" from below.
Chu Yao took out a pistol from his storage bag and opened fire at the other self in front of him.
The shot naturally missed, and the opponent dodged and passed by. But she didn't seem to pull out a gun and shoot back like Chu Yao did.
What? It turns out she can’t imitate the things in the storage bag.
Chu Yao finally gradually figured out the details of this person who looked similar to herself, and even guessed her origin, which was probably related to the first level.
"Oh? Hidden weapons?" Yu Qingzi nodded. "Thinking of using external objects is a valid method! However, this power might only injure Qi Refiners, but Jindan cultivators won't be vulnerable to it..."
Before he could finish his words, what happened next stunned him.
Chu Yao took out something that looked like a backpack from the storage bag and put it on his back, tightly wrapping it around his waist with the iron belt extending from the bottom.
She reached out and touched a button on her belt, and amazing changes began to take place on her body.
Chu Yao chuckled:
"My Lord, times have changed!"
