The people from the Spirit Sword Sect that they had just encountered were a trial team led by the sect's elders.
Lin Jiujiu seemed to have thought of something and raised an eyebrow at Baili Chenyuan.
"Would you like to go take a look together?"
Just as Baili Chenyuan was about to nod, Tantai Yueming's voice drifted over.
"Don't even think about it. Only cultivators below the Golden Core stage can enter the Azure Orchid Secret Realm. Anyone above the Foundation Establishment stage who tries to break in will be obliterated by the Mirror Spirit before they even get inside."
Tantai Yueming's words still had a nasal tone, indicating that he was still angry.
Lin Jiujiu found it amusing again when she heard her voice.
But in the end, I didn't provoke him any further.
However, it is not hard to tell from his words that although the Azure Orchid Secret Realm is a low-level secret realm, it has already given birth to a realm spirit.
This made Lin Jiujiu even more interested.
She hadn't forgotten that her purpose in coming to the cultivation world was to find a breakthrough and uncover the existence of the person behind it all.
But she's not alone now; while trying to find the person controlling her fate, she also needs to take care of her family.
However, she cannot accomplish all this by herself alone; she needs to develop her own power here.
Her space contained countless high-grade natural treasures, but she had very few spiritual herbs and plants suitable for low-level cultivators.
The appearance of this Azure Orchid Secret Realm seems to have been specially prepared for her.
If we could take this secret realm into our possession, it would save us a lot of trouble.
Most importantly, the name "Azure Orchid Secret Realm" sounded very familiar to her, giving her a sense of déjà vu.
With that thought in mind, Lin Jiujiu flicked her sleeves and left Xiaobai, who had been comfortably sunbathing in the space, on the deck.
What do you know about the Azure Orchid Secret Realm?
Xiao Bai was completely disoriented when he heard Lin Jiujiu mention the Canglan Secret Realm, and subconsciously replied.
"Isn't this the first cheat code that the original female lead in that stupid novel you read called 'The Evil Master Fell in Love with Me' got after entering the cultivation world?"
Goodness, this is a real treasure, a secret space where you can grow!
Don't be fooled by the fact that only low-level disciples are allowed to enter. That spirit master is quite shrewd; he's deliberately keeping it closed to the public to prevent his prized possessions from being stolen.
Lin Jiujiu quickly noticed the difference in Xiaobai's words.
This guy seems to be quite familiar with the spirit of the Azure Orchid Secret Realm; he knows him so well.
Lin Jiujiu knew he had a secret, but she didn't intend to expose him.
Meanwhile, Baili Chenyuan had already turned his spirit boat around and followed behind the Spirit Sword Sect members.
The people from the Spirit Sword Sect seemed to have noticed this as well, and someone immediately came over to inquire.
"What is the reason for this, fellow Daoists?"
"It's nothing. I just heard Fellow Daoist Tantai talk about the Canglan Secret Realm. Just now, a few of my children are below the Golden Core stage, and they also want to go into the secret realm for a trial."
As Lin Jiujiu spoke, Ning Yi led the little boy to stand beside her.
Upon sensing that neither of them had yet reached the Foundation Establishment stage, a hint of surprise flashed across the elder's face.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, this is no joke. The secret realm is fraught with danger. If there are only two young friends below the Foundation Establishment stage, without a senior brother or sister to accompany them, it is best not to enter."
Lin Jiujiu smiled upon hearing this and said, "There is another person who is currently breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage, and I expect to see results soon."
Upon hearing this, the elder frowned even more deeply, turned around and returned to his sect's flying boat. Soon after, he led another handsome young man over.
The young man appeared to be in his early twenties, his body brimming with sword intent. It seemed he had only recently grasped the essence of swordsmanship and was not yet able to control it freely.
The elder then addressed Lin Jiujiu.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, this is an elite disciple whom my Spirit Sword Sect has only recruited in the last two years. He has now reached the peak of Foundation Establishment and has just begun to comprehend sword intent. He is an absolute standout among the disciples who have entered the Azure Orchid Secret Realm."
"If you're determined to send these two children in, why not let them go with Shen Qing? Staying by his side in the secret realm will at least guarantee their safety."
Lin Jiujiu looked at Shen Qing, who looked honest and unassuming, and who was assigned by the elder to take care of two burdens without showing any resentment. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
Are all sword forgers single-minded? How could they agree to something like this?
You have to understand that this trip into the secret realm is one of the few opportunities available to everyone, and the gains inside could be related to their future cultivation. He was willing to agree to this, and Lin Jiujiu was convinced.
As if she had thought of something, Lin Jiujiu unconsciously glanced in the direction where Tantai Yueming was.
"snort!"
Sure enough, the next second, a cold snort reached my ears.
Not only that, Tantai Yueming also said in a very dissatisfied tone.
"Don't look at me like I'm an idiot. I'm not like them."
Lin Jiujiu nodded almost imperceptibly, which was unusually foolish.
Tantai Yueming was clearly paying attention to what was happening outside. Seeing Lin Jiujiu like this, he was even more furious and didn't want to talk to her at all.
Lin Jiujiu thanked the elder for his kindness but did not agree to let Shen Qing take the two children into the secret realm.
Firstly, she was worried. It wasn't that she didn't trust Shen Qing, but rather that there were too many variables in the secret realm, and it was better for her to lead it herself than to entrust it to someone else.
Secondly, if we incur a favor with the Spirit Sword Sect this time, and these two children form a karmic bond with Shen Qing, who knows how we will have to repay it in the future?
Seeing Lin Jiujiu's state, the elder knew that she had some means to protect the two of them, so he didn't try to persuade her further and left with Shen Qing.
However, after returning to the Spirit Sword Sect's spirit boat, Shen Qing couldn't help but ask.
"Why would the elder do this..."
Shen Qing didn't know how to describe the elder's actions for a moment, so he could only touch on the subject briefly.
Although he didn't mind bringing two more disciples in the Qi Refining stage, he was the leader of the Spirit Sword Sect on this trip to the secret realm, and he had already led a group, so two more people wouldn't matter.
But he always felt that the elder's attitude was a little too humble.
Most of the disciples accepted into the Spirit Sword Sect are simple-minded, or you could say single-minded. Their thoughts are written all over their faces, and the elders understand this perfectly well.
Feeling there was nothing to hide from him, she waved her hand and said...
"My Uncle-Master Tantai told me in a telepathic message that the two people on the spirit boat should be treated with utmost respect and not with the slightest disrespect."
Uncle-Master Tantai is a genius that their Spirit Sword Sect has only seen once in a hundred years.
When he left the sect to gain experience, he was just a Golden Core cultivator like everyone else.
But after going around in circles, less than a year later, he not only successfully broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, but also vaguely touched the threshold of the Tribulation Transcending stage.
According to his own words, his good fortune was bestowed upon him by those two people.
From any perspective, these two are great benefactors of their Spirit Sword Sect.
It's only right that they show more respect.
When Shen Qing heard Elder Yi talk about Tantai Yueming, his eyes burned with desire.
