Chapter 413 Golden Core Realm
Yu Zhiyi never expected that she would wake up again.
She thought she was going to die.
When the seventh lightning bolt struck, she clearly saw that the lightning in the sky had not dissipated, which meant that there were still an eighth and a ninth lightning bolts to come.
She couldn't tell what year it was.
Lying on the scorched ground was not a comfortable thing, so Yu Zhiyi stood up and the first thing she did was to feel the power within her body.
During her coma, the golden core had successfully condensed and was now floating in her dantian.
The perfectly round golden pill was without a single impurity and shone with dazzling light.
With a flick of her wrist, Yu Zhiyi condensed a vast amount of spiritual energy in her palm, a hundred or even a thousand times greater than the spiritual energy she could condense before.
"Golden Core Realm, you can now fly on a sword."
Yu Zhiyi sighed.
Unfortunately, she did not inherit her master's skills and did not know how to wield a sword.
Moreover, he did not have a natal spirit sword.
Master Qingfeng has many secret manuals in his storage ring, but unfortunately there is no manual on sword control. This may be because sword control is not a secret for someone with a master, and there is no need to record it separately.
She took out a cleansing talisman and cleansed herself, removing the charred marks from being struck by lightning.
The charred black color faded, revealing skin as white and smooth as jade.
After entering the Golden Core Realm, her skin became even better than before.
Unfortunately, the cleansing talisman couldn't repair the clothes on her body. Yu Zhiyi took out a new set of clothes from that class and was about to change into them when she suddenly remembered something.
She was slightly startled.
The lightning struck so suddenly that she was completely absorbed and forgot about Gao Wenfeng.
She rushed to look for it and found the charred corpse that had already cooled down.
Yu Zhiyi: "..."
Her previous relaxed mood vanished, and she felt a sense of urgency once again.
When did he die, and was she in any of the scenes before his death?
Never mind, it's not important.
Whether it's true or not, it's clear that we can't stay in this place any longer.
Yu Zhiyi quickly determined the time of Gao Wenfeng's death. Although his body was charred by lightning, there were still some intact muscles and bones underneath. Having been in the Ministry of Justice for so long, she had learned a lot and quickly determined that the man had been dead for less than two hours.
This mountain range, located on the edge of the hidden realm, looked like a series of overlapping peaks. Even when she traveled at full speed, she couldn't reach the end of it in a day.
However, the Gao family has a Golden Core Realm expert.
A master at the Golden Core Realm can fly on a sword.
She chose to destroy the evidence rather than flee quickly.
Although she wasn't sure when Gao Wenfeng died, she was certain that she had always had her back to him.
Even if the Gao family did see her, they could only see her back at most and wouldn't know her true identity.
If they want to catch her, they first need to find the crime scene and then start a search in the vicinity of the crime scene.
Whether searching for clues or conducting a thorough search, finding the crime scene is the top priority.
Conversely, as long as they cannot find the crime scene, their progress can be delayed indefinitely.
Having made up her mind, Yu Zhiyi wasted no time and threw a fire-controlling talisman onto Gao Wenfeng's corpse.
The fire-controlling talisman was very fast; in no time, Gao Wenfeng's corpse turned to ashes.
She calmly drew dozens of cleansing talismans, applying them to every inch of land within a hundred meters, restoring the ground blackened by lightning to its original color.
They also moved the nearby thorns and weeds over.
She wasn't obsessive enough to plant thorns and weeds all over the ground; the vegetation coverage within a hundred-meter radius was less than a third, but that was enough.
The spiritual energy here is so rich that they will grow wildly if given just a little time.
But she didn't have time.
An hour has passed, and if she doesn't leave soon, she might be found.
Finding a patch of ground that has been altered and struck by lightning from high above is not easy, but finding a person is not difficult at all.
Before setting off, she consulted the oracle again.
I thought I would have to consult the oracle more than twenty times to get an accurate answer, but this time it came true in one go.
northeast?
Is this telling her to go back?
She didn't doubt her divination, and although she was somewhat puzzled, she still went back.
As it turns out, her intuition, combined with the divination, was incredibly accurate.
After walking a distance in the direction indicated by the divination, she discovered a cave hidden by a low-level illusion array.
This formation is not conspicuous from the air and could even fool those who don't understand formations. However, although Yu Zhiyi is not an expert in formations, she is capable of modifying formations herself, so this little trick can't fool her.
She wasn't particularly curious, and normally she would never trespass on a place that was clearly occupied.
The formation was directing her this way, but this illusionary formation was blocking her path, making it hard for her not to overthink.
So, without destroying the formation, she stepped inside and discovered the cave hidden behind it.
The entrance to the cave was not large, only allowing one person to pass through at a time, and a faint, unpleasant smell emanated from inside.
Yu Zhiyi had worked in the Ministry of Justice and had personally participated in solving cases, so she naturally knew what this tasted like.
Sure enough, after passing through the first narrow path that could only accommodate one person at a time, the view suddenly opened up.
What Yu Zhiyi noticed first was not the suddenly brighter light and the spacious cave, nor the strange puddle in the cave that was half a meter in diameter.
Instead, it was an old man sitting cross-legged beside the puddle.
