Chapter 67 Thanks to Brother Li Fu for bringing the good news "Yinyin"...
"Senior Sister, I recognize those two; they are inner disciples." Zhu Guanghao transmitted his voice to his senior sister, Sun Ke.
Sun Ke transmitted his voice: "Being an inner disciple means they have many life-saving items. It's not safe to go further in. Why don't we take them with us? That would greatly increase our chances of winning."
Zhu Guanghao transmitted his voice: "Senior Sister is wise."
Sun Ke showed a friendly expression, "So you're from the same sect. I thought you were someone else."
Shen Rong: "We're from the same sect! That's great. Would you two like to join us? It'll be good to have someone to look after you."
Song Yin: "Thank you for your kindness, fellow Daoist, but we must go deeper into the area. Farewell."
Song Yin gave Shi Heming a wink.
"Let's go."
Before Shen Rong could offer any advice, she saw her two fellow disciples fly away on their swords.
Oh no, they've gone too far to catch up. Sun Ke pulled her hand away and said to Shen Rong, "Zhu Guanghao and I are leaving too. Take care."
Goodbye, senior sisters and brothers, have a safe journey.
Shen Rong followed the others and said.
Traveling with a large group can be troublesome. After experiencing Meng Yikang's ordeal, Song Yin was afraid of encountering another incompetent teammate.
"Fellow Daoists, please wait."
Sun Ke caught up with the two and stopped in front of them.
Sun Ke: "We have the same goal, so why don't we act together? We're all from the same sect, so we're not afraid of being betrayed, and we can also keep an eye on others."
Zhu Guanghao: "I have long heard that Fellow Daoist Song Yin and Fellow Daoist Shi Heming have exceptional talents. It is truly fortunate to meet you both today."
Something's not right. Zhu Guanghao's tone of voice is exactly the same as Meng Yikang's at the beginning!
Song Yin was highly vigilant. "I don't know your names yet." She decided to write them down first.
"My name is Zhu Guanghao."
"My name is Sun Ke."
Song Yin: "Fellow Daoist Zhu and Fellow Daoist Fan, thank you for your kind offer, but we have no intention of traveling together."
Shi Heming: "That's right, I don't like traveling with strangers."
Zhu Guanghao and Sun Ke's smiles froze on their faces, as if they were determined to win.
Before they could answer, the two had already flown far away.
Zhu Guanghao's expression was gloomy. "Your word doesn't count if we don't go together." Thinking of the good stuff the two of them had, he made a throat-slitting gesture at Sun Ke.
Sun Ke hesitated: "Isn't that a bad idea? They are direct disciples of the elders, and the sect rules forbid disciples from killing each other."
Zhu Guanghao: "People die for wealth, birds die for food. The sect's rules can't govern us in the secret realm. Besides, which secret realm doesn't have deaths? If we do something in the secret realm, who will know?"
Greed grew uncontrollably, and Sun Ke exclaimed, "Good!"
Zhu Guanghao: "The key point is Song Yin. She is the only disciple of Danque Peak. Elder Qi will definitely give her good things. My friend at Wujian Peak said that he often sees Song Yin going to Wujian Peak and befriending the direct disciples there. Even Elder Wen is very kind to her and likes her a lot. With her treatment, she must have countless good things."
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's chase after them!"
After flying a distance, Song Yin landed back on the ground. "There should be plenty of spiritual herbs here. Let's split up and search."
Shi Heming: "Are you picking them all?"
Song Yin: "I don't want anything too small."
The grass here is very tall; when you stand inside, it reaches your shoulders, and when you bend over, you are completely hidden by the tall grass.
Song Yin and Shi Heming bent down to collect the spiritual herbs.
The two people flying overhead were moving at high speed, unaware that their pursuers were below them.
...
Since missing out on the Soul-Sealing Grass at the Alchemist Conference, Li Fu has become increasingly taciturn, spending his days either searching for new Soul-Sealing Grass or staying by his master's side. Fortunately, the sect leader is merciful, constantly using other high-grade pills to keep his master alive, but that's all; a full recovery still requires finding the Soul-Sealing Grass.
After the Alchemist Conference, he made a special trip to visit the city lord of Nine Star City to ask where the Divine Soul Grass came from. The city lord's answer surprised him greatly.
Unexpectedly, the rare Divine Soul Grass actually came from the Floating Dream Secret Realm, which rekindled his hope.
Even more fortunately, the Floating Dream Realm opened, and he immediately asked the sect leader for a spot. The sect leader granted him a spot without hesitation.
"Following the clues, the Soul-Devouring Grass appeared in the Secret Realm Plains, but we need to be wary of the Skeleton-Eating Rabbits. That person said that the Skeleton-Eating Rabbits live in groups near the Soul-Devouring Grass, and they eat everything, especially flesh and blood, and they even eat bones," Li Fu muttered to himself as he recalled.
Li Fu entered the secret realm and headed straight for the plain where the Divine Soul Grass was found without saying a word.
The plains are so vast that it's really difficult to find the hidden Divine Soul Grass in the deep grass.
Li Fu landed on the ground and bent down to search through the grass. He didn't find the Divine Soul Grass, but instead found other spiritual herbs. His goal was the Divine Soul Grass, so he didn't have time to collect the others. Ignoring these herbs, he continued searching forward.
Bang!
Ouch!
Their heads collided, making a crisp sound.
Song Yin covered her forehead, "Which idiot bumped into me?"
Hearing the commotion, Shi Heming went to investigate and saw Song Yin clutching her forehead. Several third-tier talismans flew out and surrounded her: "Who is it? What are you up to by lying in ambush here!"
Li Fu was walking too fast and bumped into the other person, almost faking unconsciousness. The other person seemed to have practiced iron head kung fu, with strength as great as an ox, knocking him upside down like a turtle flipping over. The surrounding grass was tall, and lying on the ground, he looked like he was buried under the grass of a grave.
After a while, Li Fu struggled to get up, grimacing and rubbing his sore head. "Who ambushed me? You were the ones who bumped into me."
Song Yin lowered her hand. "Li Fu?"
Li Fu stopped what he was doing, looked up in surprise, "Song Yin?"
Shi Heming was momentarily confused: "You two know each other?"
"I know him. He was my opponent in the finals of the Alchemist Tournament. He's Li Fu, a disciple of the Heavenly Fire Sect," Song Yin introduced to Shi Heming.
Since they were acquaintances, there was no need for tension. Since Song Yin was an acquaintance, he silently withdrew the talisman.
Song Yin: "I didn't expect to run into you here. You're also looking for spirit herbs?"
Li Fu: "You know there's a Soul-Soul Grass here?"
Song Yin: !
Li Fu: Oh no! This guy doesn't know, he let it slip!
Song Yin's big eyes darted around. "We're acquaintances, and I know your situation. Don't worry, once we find the Soul Grass, the first one is yours, and whoever finds the rest keeps it. But are there many Soul Grasses here?"
With the assurance in hand, Li Fu relaxed. "There are many, but they are guarded by groups of carnivorous rabbits, so it's very dangerous to pick them."
Song Yin: "Judging from your appearance, you must not have found it."
Li Fu smiled awkwardly, "That's true."
After a few seconds of sorting through the known information, Song Yinhua had a good idea: "I have a way to find the Divine Soul Grass."
Li Fu: "Please speak!"
Song Yin: "The plains are so vast, and the grass is so tall and dense, it would be a waste of time for us to search blindly. Since the Soul Grass is guarded by the Skeleton Rabbits, let's go find the Skeleton Rabbits directly."
After a moment's thought, Li Fu's eyes lit up. "That makes sense. Fellow Daoist Song truly deserves to be the champion of the competition!"
Song Yin stepped onto the spirit sword, tilted her head to indicate, "What are you standing there for? Take off and go find the Skeleton Rabbit."
Li Fu happily followed Song Yin and the others to find the Skeleton Rabbit.
What? You say the Skeleton Rabbit is dangerous? Sorry, the bigger the storm, the more valuable the fish. He has to get the Soul Grass for his master!
Song Yin couldn't suppress her smile and flew ahead. What good luck! The news about the Divine Soul Grass came to her door on its own!
After flying for a distance, Li Fu gradually came to his senses.
Wait a minute, what do you mean by "the first one found belongs to me, and whoever picks the rest belongs to them"? I was the one who brought the news about the Divine Soul Grass, so why should she take so much of it!
Perhaps it was Li Fu's intense gaze that caught the attention of Shi Heming, who was standing next to Song Yin.
Shi Heming gave him a sharp look, and Li Fu immediately agreed to Song Yin's suggestion to divide the soul grass.
He was just a low-level alchemist, and the man next to Song Yin was quite fierce; in a two-on-one fight, he would only lose.
Li Fu, facing the wind, sadly sheds tears, his cat-shaped head bowed.
Song Yin: "Why are you crying?"
Li Fu smiled bravely: "The wind was strong and sand got into my eyes."
"Look at you, you don't even know how to put a spiritual energy shield on yourself." Considering that he brought news about the Divine Soul Grass, Song Yin generously put a protective shield on him.
Seeing this, Shi Heming quietly removed his protective shield, saying, "I want one too."
Song Yin looked at him: "Didn't you just put one on yourself? Oh? You really don't have one? Then I'll put one on you too."
"Thank you, Yinyin." Shi Heming was so happy that he blurted out his thanks, but then realized that he had used a name he only dared to use in his heart.
Song Yin didn't feel much, plus in her previous life, many people called her by her nickname Yinyin.
Seeing that she was not acting strangely, Shi Heming turned his head, and couldn't help but smile.
Upon arriving at their new location, the three were immediately struck by multiple oppressive forces. A deep, bottomless crack ran across the ground, as if cleaved by a sword. The once boundless, pristine green landscape was now marred by this massive fissure, its beauty utterly destroyed.
Song Yin raised her hand, signaling them to stop.
"Land here, everyone be careful. If you can't win, remember—"
Li Fu: "Call for reinforcements? Or fight to the death?"
Song Yin: "Run."
Li Fu: ...I guess I overestimated her after all.
They stayed on the outskirts of the Skeleton Rabbit's territory, trying to minimize their presence in order to avoid alerting the Skeleton Rabbit.
To be fair, Song Yin's suggestion was really useful.
Li Fu returned to his usual posture of bending over and scrambling through the grass. The difference this time was that he quickly found the Soul Grass he had been longing for, and there were two of them growing together, probably several hundred years old.
A few hundred years is enough; Li Fu is not picky.
He knelt on the ground and carefully picked the herbs, glistening teardrops falling onto the leaves of the Soul-Soul Grass with a soft, dripping sound. He sniffed, then placed the two Soul-Soul Grasses into the jade box and stored them in his spatial storage.
That's great, Master is saved.
Li Fu got up from the ground and said to the two people not far away, his voice choked with emotion, "Song Yin, I found the Soul Grass. Thank you for reminding me to look here—"
"Get out of the way!"
The enormous rabbit's red eyes never blinked, and it continued to grow, soon reaching the height of a two-story building. The rabbit opened its mouth wide at the two bent-over figures, its two long incisors like knives; a light bite would surely pierce through their bodies, tearing away large chunks of flesh.
Faster than Li Fu's voice was Song Yin's sword. Li Fu didn't even see Song Yin make a move before his two-story-high body crashed to the ground.
"The rabbit is quite fat." Song Yin raised her sword, itching to cut the huge rabbit into eight pieces and put them into her storage bag.
Shi Heming saw through her thoughts and pressed down on her wrist, "The smell of blood will attract other bone-eating rabbits. It's better to put them directly into your storage bag."
"Okay." Song Yin put the rabbit meat into her storage bag. Luckily, she had changed the storage bag. Such a big rabbit couldn't be eaten by one person. She would find a food cultivator to cook it and then share it with everyone. "By the way, you said you found the Divine Soul Grass, so you won't give us any of the things we find after that."
Li Fu stood frozen, his thoughts a jumbled mess. Wasn't Song Yin a pill refiner? What was that sword strike just now?!
In another part of the secret realm, several disciples of the Yuancang Sect suddenly went mad, frightening the fellow cultivators who were traveling with them into automatically moving away.
"You Immortal Firmament Sect, you've gone too far! How dare you kill members of my Yuancang Sect! You lot, come with me and avenge Meng Yikang!"

Author's Note: Li Fu: It was sand that blew into my eyes, not me crying because I was stupid [melted emoji]
Song Yin: Okay, okay, whatever you say goes. Here comes my new Divine Soul Grass! [Laughing]
Li Fu: Isn't she a pill refiner? What happened with that sword strike just now? [Cracked]
Song Yin: Yes, yes, I'm a pill refiner, but that doesn't stop me from being a swordsman [glasses]
There are cannon fodder characters; Yin Yin doesn't even need to lift a finger, they'll all take care of themselves later. [Milk tea emoji]
