Vast sea of ​​clouds and long iron chain bridge.

There is no other shore in front of me, and no origin behind me.

Even though Xu Yinglian was very smart and knew that this bridge could not have no end, he still couldn't help feeling inexplicably nervous.

Fortunately, I have my senior brother by my side...

Kunlun Mirror noticed her thoughts and quickly and quietly removed his aura.

Then Xu Yinglian gradually realized that there was a warm feeling coming from the palm of her senior brother's hand, as if it was giving her strength.

If she knew what the "suspension bridge effect" was, she would understand that in a critical situation, girls will instinctively develop dependence and affection for the boys around them. This is a natural physiological phenomenon evolved by human beings.

Of course, Junior Sister Xu didn’t understand this either. She just held on to her senior brother’s hand tightly and moved her legs desperately to rush forward. The Yujia sword kept swaying beside her, ready to shoot out at any time.

After an unknown amount of time, the two finally reached the other side safely.

Here, there is a large cloud platform, with clear water as the spring, white jade as the bricks, and ethereal fairy music singing in the distance, which makes the surroundings seem even more ethereal and holy.

"What the hell is this?" Kunlun Mirror complained, "Even if it was built to imitate the West Queen Mother's Palace, playing music every day is too outrageous. Isn't it too noisy?"

"Isn't there an atmosphere group in the Temple of the Queen Mother of the West?" Qiu Changtian asked.

"What is the atmosphere group..." Kunlun Jing sighed and said, "Of course not, Your Majesty likes quietness."

"Who is the queen?" Qiu Changtian asked knowingly.

"Of course it's the Queen Mother of the West." Kunlun Mirror said, "But she has left this world for a long time."

"A Jing, I would like to hear the details."

"That's a long story. In short, over the past ten thousand years, the fairyland has become increasingly distant from the human world. Now, the heavens and humans are almost separated forever, and it is impossible for them to interfere with each other." Kunlun Jing said with a sad tone, "If it weren't for this, I wouldn't be the only one in this world busy with the work of repairing the sky."

"If you're willing to listen, we can talk about it later. Now we should find a way to leave here first."

"Let me tell you: the Divine Fire Sect has an almost fanatical obsession and pursuit of the Immortal Cave Heaven, so I guess since this place was built to imitate the West Queen Mother's Palace, the terrain and environment should be similar."

"If that's true, then in the backyard of the Divine Palace, in the Peach Forest, there is a 'Linjing' that leads to the lower world, which corresponds to the exit from this secret realm."

Qiu Changtian nodded when he heard this, then turned to his junior sister and said:

"As far as I know, the Divine Fire Sect has an almost fanatical obsession and pursuit of the Immortal Cave Heaven..."

He repeated the analysis of the Kunlun Mirror, and Xu Yinglian frowned slightly, slightly surprised:

"So the exit is probably in the backyard of the shrine? Well, we can only explore this place anyway, there is no other way."

"That's right." Qiu Changtian agreed, "If we continue to move forward, we will definitely encounter other dangers such as the golden armor warriors. Junior sister, just follow me closely and don't walk around without permission."

"Of course." Xu Yinglian said coldly, "Also, Senior Brother, can you please let go of my hand first?"

Qiu Changtian was slightly startled, then he noticed that he was still holding his junior sister's hand. He quickly smiled and let her go.

Xu Yinglian gently rubbed the left hand that had just been held with his right hand, his face a little unnatural, and asked:

"Should we head directly to the shrine in front? Or should we explore the Yuntai here first?"

"It's better to be cautious and explore it thoroughly." Qiu Changtian replied, "If there are dangers like golden armor warriors here and we don't know about it, we will be blocked from both ends and attacked from both sides, which will be troublesome."

"That's true." Xu Yinglian nodded.

The two began to explore Yuntai.

Although Yuntai is large, there are not many buildings that block the view, only the pool, the sky gate, and the arcade.

When Qiu Changtian and Xu Yinglian arrived at the pond, they saw withered lotus leaves and shriveled lotus pods in the pond. It seemed that after thousands of years, most of the lotuses had died.

"Huh?" Kunlun Jing suddenly said, "It's actually the real Yaochi Golden Lotus. Where did these people get it from?"

"Yaochi Golden Lotus?"

"In this world, it is considered a rare immortal spiritual object. Eating its lotus seeds can open the acupoints throughout the body and increase the efficiency of breathing and refining qi."

"I see. Is there an illusion trap by the pool?"

"There is no trap." Kunlun Mirror replied.

Then Qiu Changtian raised the Jade Dragon Sword and flew directly into the pool.

Xu Yinglian was startled and quickly picked up the Yujia Sword and prepared for battle. He only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there were no formations or traps in the Yaochi.

Brother, you are too reckless. What if you trigger the hidden restriction?

She pondered in her heart, and wanted to teach her brother a lesson, but then she changed her mind and thought:

Could it be that senior brother noticed some details that allowed him to confirm that there was no trap or formation here, so he took decisive action?

Yes, no matter what, in the end it was proven that my senior brother did not make any mistakes. If I had rashly taught him a lesson and he had used his evidence to ridicule me, it would have made me look like I was not careful enough...

Humph, I won’t be fooled by my senior brother.

[Invincible character, synchronization value +1. ]

After hearing the hint, Qiu Changtian was speechless in his heart, but his expression remained calm. He carefully peeled the shriveled lotus pod that was swept by the sword light, and finally found two intact lotus seeds.

"Would you like to eat some golden lotus seeds from the Yaochi Lake?" He gave one to his junior sister.

"Can these lotus seeds be eaten?" Xu Yinglian picked up the lotus seeds with two fingers suspiciously and looked at them carefully in the light.

"Of course." Qiu Changtian said confidently, and asked Kunlun Jing in his heart, "Right?"

"Immortal creatures will at most lose their spiritual power over time, but they are still edible." The Kunlun Mirror gave the answer.

So Qiu Changtian threw the lotus seeds into his mouth and started chewing them.

Well, it’s as crispy as French fries and as hard as fried peas. In short, the taste is not that good and I don’t feel anything when I eat it.

Seeing that her senior brother ate it so quickly, Junior Sister Xu naturally didn't want to be left behind and threw it straight into her mouth.

"Cough! Cough cough cough!" It happened to slide into her throat and got stuck in her esophagus, causing her to cough violently.

Qiu Changtian hurried over to pat her back, only to see Xu Yinglian tense her chest and swallow hard, finally getting it down, avoiding becoming the first monk in history to choke to death.

Then she turned around and glared at Qiu Changtian.

"Don't worry, Junior Sister." Qiu Changtian smiled gently, "This lotus seed is a spiritual object from the immortal world. Although a lot of spiritual energy has been lost, it should still have the effect of opening the acupoints throughout the body, increasing the efficiency of breathing in and out spiritual energy."

Xu Yinglian was immediately moved. Improving the efficiency of breathing in spiritual energy would directly affect the efficiency of cultivation and upgrading. Even a slight improvement would be extremely valuable.

Thinking of this, she turned her head to look at the lotus pod on the ground and couldn't help but check it again.

Unfortunately, Qiu Changtian was not wrong. There were indeed only two lotus seeds here, no more.

Xu Yinglian was still not giving up, and stretched her neck to look into the Yaochi Lake, trying to confirm whether there were any undiscovered lotus pods in the pond.

Qiu Changtian found it funny and asked her:

"Junior sister, are you looking for koi in the pond?"

Xu Yinglian's cheeks turned slightly red. She realized that her senior brother was mocking her, so she tried to explain herself:

"I'm just wondering why there's a pillar in the middle of the pool? Doesn't it look a bit awkward?"

Qiu Changtian followed her gaze and saw a short pillar in the center of the Yaochi, rising above the water. There was a groove on the top of the pillar with a mirror on it.

"That is the Yaochi Mirror Stand." Kunlun Mirror said faintly, "I was in the West Queen Mother's Palace, on the Yaochi Mirror Stand, silently illuminating all living beings, without knowing the passing of time."

"Really?" Qiu Changtian looked at the mirror on the dressing table.

As his gaze fell on the mirror, the mirror seemed to flash a barely detectable strange light.
