The elders of each sect worked together to open the secret realm, and everyone entered the secret realm one by one.
An Ge took a deep breath, opened her eyes again, and found herself in a dense forest.
The forest was full of trees, some of which had not yet sprouted new buds. The temperature was a bit low, but the occasional breeze carried a hint of warmth, creating a scene reminiscent of early spring.
An Ge looked around curiously but didn't find anything dangerous.
Xie Ying and the others had experience entering secret realms many times. Seeing this situation, they did not relax but became even more cautious.
"Everyone be careful, something's wrong here."
"Did Senior Sister Xie discover any danger?" An Ge used her divine sense to sense the area again, but still found nothing.
Xie Ying knew that this was An Ge's first time entering the secret realm, so she patiently explained, "Usually, everyone will scatter after entering the secret realm. This is the first time I've seen everyone gathered together. Besides, the greatest danger in the secret realm is the absence of danger itself."
An Ge seemed to be deep in thought, and also became more vigilant.
Suddenly, a commotion arose from the crowd. "What's going on? Why is my spiritual power so weak?"
"Me too, my current spiritual power is only enough to open a spatial ring."
The members of the Tianyan Sect looked at each other, mobilized their spiritual power, and then shook their heads.
"It's not that it's unusable; at least the space is still usable. But the spiritual energy is practically nonexistent, making it completely useless for combat." After Xie Ying finished speaking, everyone's expressions turned solemn, with a hint of discomfort in their eyes.
An Ge was used to not using spiritual power, so she adapted the fastest at this moment.
"Since we can't use spiritual power, everyone except those who cultivate the body is on the same starting line, so it's actually safer for each other."
"You're right, but the space is still usable, so everyone should still be careful."
"Don't worry, Senior Sister Xie. If anyone dares to harm our Tianyan Sect, I'll smash them to death with my treasures." (The literal meaning.)
Then the group realized that An Ge was one of the wealthiest among them, which put their minds at ease, and they looked at An Ge with eager eyes.
Although there are no personal grudges between the various sects, they become competitors within the secret realm. Under normal circumstances, they wouldn't resort to underhanded tactics, but they certainly wouldn't be too friendly either.
The Beast Taming Sect spoke first, "Everyone, obtaining treasure depends on your own abilities. We, the Beast Taming Sect, will take the lead." After saying that, the Beast Taming Sect members entered the forest.
An Ge was a little curious. The Beast Taming Sect usually relied on spirit beasts for combat power, which had obvious weaknesses, so they rarely stood out like this.
Seeing An Ge's confusion, Xie Ying explained, "The Beast Taming Sect's aura is relatively gentle, which can reduce the aggressiveness of spirit beasts, making it safer in the forest."
An Ge suddenly realized that she had an advantage here, and remembered her own talent.
Who can rival her charm, this darling of nature?
After the Beast Taming Sect left, the Apricot Grove Sect followed closely behind, and then the other sects also entered the forest one after another.
Xie Ying looked at everyone and said, "Let's go, we can't fall behind."
Within the secret realm, An Ge's cultivation level was arguably the highest, so she confidently activated her Eye of Exploration.
"Wow!" An Ge exclaimed as she looked at the shimmering light.
"What's wrong?" Xie Ying asked with concern.
"I think there are treasures everywhere in the forest, let's hurry."
Everyone smiled indulgently at An Ge's mischievous behavior. Although Junior Sister An had a high level of cultivation, she still had some childlike qualities.
Yu Xinghe looked at everyone with a gloomy expression, then turned and left in the opposite direction.
Xie Ying watched Yu Xinghe's retreating figure without calling out to him. "Everyone is free in the secret realm. Junior Brother Yu may have his reasons for wanting to go alone. However, I suggest we stay together. Who knows what dangers lurk in this forest?"
Everyone nodded; they shared the same thought, especially now that they were no different from ordinary people.
An Ge breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that Yu Xinghe left; at least she wouldn't have to live in constant fear for a while.
Entering the forest, Ange became more relaxed and could even feel the affection emanating from the surrounding plants. She also became more sensitive to any signs of danger.
Like a fish entering the water, An Ge ran straight towards a spiritual plant.
An Ge had read some books on alchemy and had a general understanding of spiritual plants, but there were still many she couldn't recognize. But that's okay, she had a cheat code!
Regardless of what kind of spiritual plant it is, as long as it is glowing, it should be picked first as a sign of respect.
"Junior Sister An is lucky. This is a second-tier spiritual plant, which is a good material for refining Spirit Gathering Pills."
"This spiritual plant looks like a Wind Spirit Grass, which is extremely rare outside. It can be used to refine beauty pills, which are very expensive. Junior Sister, you've struck it rich."
"Flame Grass can enhance the attributes of fire spirit roots; it's a fourth-tier spirit plant."
"My God, you actually found a fifth-tier spiritual plant! How did you find it so well hidden?"
"Junior sister, are you the chosen one? This is a sixth-tier spiritual plant! Sixth-tier! I've never seen such a high-level spiritual plant before."
"What is this stone? Judging from its luster, it must be extraordinary. What? It's a third-grade amethyst stone! Junior sister, you actually know about weapon crafting!"
"No, I can't watch anymore. If I keep watching, I'll get so jealous that my Dao heart will become unstable."
Lie Yan watched helplessly as An Ge meticulously searched for spirit plants from various hidden corners, growing increasingly speechless.
He considered himself extremely lucky, but compared to An Ge, his luck was simply insignificant.
Although the disciples of various sects knew nothing about alchemy, that didn't stop them from harvesting spiritual plants—each one was worth a fortune. However, apart from the Xinglin Sect, the disciples of the other sects gained almost nothing.
At this moment, An Ge, who had made a fortune, immediately attracted the attention of others, and even Xing Linzong couldn't help but turn his gaze over.
When they saw An Ge dig up a sixth-order spiritual plant, the people of Xinglin Sect could no longer sit still.
"Liu Miao of Xinglin Sect greets everyone from Tianyan Sect and Fairy An." Xinglin Sect member was dressed in white, and a faint medicinal fragrance emanated from her, which smelled quite pleasant.
The disciples of Tianyan Sect watched the people of Xinglin Sect warily. After searching for a while without any success, they gave up and simply kept watch over An Ge, who was constantly digging for treasure, for fear that someone would steal it.
Because of Liu Tingxue, An Ge had a relatively good impression of the Xinglin Sect. She returned the greeting, "Just call me An Ge. Is there anything I can do for you, Senior Brother Liu?"
Seeing that An Ge's attitude was good, Liu Miao breathed a sigh of relief. "I see that Fellow Daoist An is very familiar with spiritual plants. I wonder if you could sell us these spiritual plants?"
An Ge shook her head. "I'm sorry, we have no plans to sell spiritual plants at the moment. Our Tianyan Sect also has a Pill Peak, and I'd like to choose them first."
Liu Miao had only intended to try her luck and make friends with An Ge, so she wasn't disappointed when she heard her words. "If Junior Sister An has any plans to sell spiritual plants, she should consider our Xinglin Sect first."
These spiritual plants are naturally not of ordinary quality.
An Ge nodded. Although she had no intention of selling it in the future, the other party's intention was clearly not that.
"I am acquainted with Sister Liu Tingxue. If I wish to sell myself, I will naturally test your sect."
Liu Miao's eyes lit up when she heard An Ge's words.
