"The Inner Territory?"
This was the first time Qin Xin had ever heard of the Eastern Wilderness Academy, and he was naturally very puzzled.
"Qin Xin, the inner domain of the Eastern Wilderness Academy is only accessible to the academy's core disciples. It contains extremely dense fire energy, which helps martial artists refine their internal energy. Although it's similar to the Spirit Forging Tower in the outer academy, its effects are unparalleled."
"For martial artists in the Aperture Opening Realm and Qi Sea Realm, this inner region is an excellent place for cultivation, and it is also of great help to martial artists in the Aperture Opening Realm in merging their meridians."
Ming Ningzhu patiently explained to Qin Xin from the side.
Qin Xin was somewhat tempted, because he was currently at the ninth level of the Aperture Opening Realm and was in the stage of merging his meridians and acupoints. If he entered this inner domain, he would have a greater chance of success. He was somewhat surprised and exclaimed, "I didn't expect the Eastern Wilderness Academy to have such a place."
Seeing that Qin Xin was already interested, Huo Sheng naturally followed up, "Actually, it's very simple to let you enter the inner domain. You just need to bring Long Mu out. I sensed that the little guy is hiding in one of the places and is asleep. If he can't be brought out, there might be some danger."
Seeing that Huo Sheng was somewhat worried, Qin Xin naturally agreed to the matter. He already knew Long Mu, so it was only right that he could lend a hand.
"When do we set off?" Qin Xin asked simply.
Seeing Qin Xin's impatience, Huo Sheng raised his hand slightly and said, "There's no rush. It will still be some time before the next passage to the inner region opens. You can stay at the Eastern Wilderness Academy during this time."
Qin Xin nodded and agreed to Huo Sheng's request.
Huo Sheng didn't hesitate either. With a light tap of his finger, a jade bottle floated to Qin Xin's front, and he slowly said, "Keep this Spirit-Nourishing Powder safe for now."
After Qin Xin accepted the jade bottle, he felt a slight tremor in his spiritual consciousness within his Niwan Palace, as if the spiritual dust had some connection with spiritual cultivation.
Suppressing his curiosity, he put the jade bottle containing the spirit-gathering powder directly into his spatial ring and thanked Huo Sheng.
After things came to a close, Qin Xin saw no need to stay at the Black Dragon City Pill Tower. He planned to first search for Jin Yuanbao and the others in the outer courtyard before returning to the inner courtyard.
After leaving the Black Dragon City Pill Tower, Qin Xin headed towards the outer courtyard of the Eastern Wilderness Academy.
Ming Ningzhu followed behind Qin Xin.
"Miss Ningzhu? What's going on?" Qin Xin felt a little uncomfortable seeing Ming Ningzhu following closely behind him, because the murderous gazes around him made him feel very uncomfortable.
Ming Ningzhu smiled lightly, her voluptuous figure trembling slightly, and said, "I am a member of the Inner Court's Ganmen sect, so of course I am returning to the Inner Court. We happen to be going the same way."
Seeing Ming Ningzhu's words, Qin Xin didn't know what to say.
Under the watchful eyes of the martial artists, Qin Xin and Ming Ningzhu slowly walked towards the outer gate of the Eastern Wilderness Academy.
As soon as Qin Xin reached the gate of the outer courtyard, he saw Xia Qi and the others riding flying demonic beasts, preparing to return to the inner courtyard.
Seeing the smug expressions on the faces of Ruan Yuan and Ruan Xiaoman behind Xia Qi, Qin Xin felt a little uncomfortable, but none of them greeted him.
Upon arriving at the courtyard where Jin Yuanbao was, they were greeted by Shangguan Lingyan, who was heavily pregnant.
Qin Xin was momentarily impressed by Jin Yuanbao's skill in winning over the somewhat aloof Shangguan Lingyan, which was a testament to Jin Yuanbao's talent for wooing women.
Upon seeing Qin Xin arrive, Shangguan Lingyan's face lit up with excitement. However, upon looking at Ming Ningzhu behind Qin Xin, a strange expression appeared on her face.
Upon hearing of Qin Xin's arrival, Jin Yuanbao rushed out of the house. Qin Xin smiled upon sensing the three beams of true energy emanating from Jin Yuanbao's martial arts core.
To his surprise, now that Jin Yuanbao is about to become a father, his cultivation level has also improved rapidly, which shows his hard work during this period.
After chatting for a while, Qin Xin also expressed some of his doubts, "It seems that the Jin Clan of the Yan Dynasty has also sent people to this Eastern Wilderness Pill Gathering."
"Boss, I know that too, but you don't need to worry too much. Although that person dislikes me, they wouldn't dare to make a move in the Eastern Wilderness Academy." Jin Yuanbao said nonchalantly.
However, Qin Xin could see the sadness in Jin Yuanbao's expression. He had also experienced this kind of abandoned life for a period of time, and it was thanks to Qin Lin's care that Qin Xin felt some comfort.
“Since that’s the case, I won’t say anything more. If you need anything, you can directly contact the main peak of the Xinkun Sect.” Qin Xin patted Jin Yuanbao on the shoulder, then looked around and, not finding Mo Wen, asked, “Didn’t Mo Wen come back with you? Why didn’t he return to the outer courtyard?”
“Mo Wen and several disciples from the Weaponry Academy have gone out for training and may not be back for a while,” Jin Yuanbao replied.
"Oh." Qin Xin didn't think much of it, took out some pills and handed them to Jin Yuanbao, including one from Mo Wen.
It was getting late, so Qin Xin bid farewell to Jin Yuanbao, reminding the two of them to be careful before he left.
Upon arriving at one side of the outer courtyard of the Eastern Wilderness Academy, Qin Xin and Ming Ningzhu selected a Wind-Riding Eagle and handed over their spiritual energy to the person in charge of guarding the eagle. A gust of wind then surged up.
The two jumped onto the back of the Wind-Riding Eagle and flew directly into the clouds.
Because of the gentle breeze, Ming Ningzhu's beautiful hair was slightly disheveled, giving her an indescribable look.
Ming Ningzhu looked at Qin Xin, who was sitting cross-legged, and couldn't help but ask, "Did you restart the Kunmen main peak?"
Qin Xin opened his eyes and looked at Ming Ningzhu. He was also quite puzzled by her question. It wasn't just Qin Qianfan who was wary of the reopening of the Kunmen main peak; even Huo Sheng had repeatedly emphasized to Qin Xin that he should be careful on the Kunmen main peak, as if there was something extraordinary there.
"Yes, but may I ask Miss Ningzhu, what exactly is the Kunmen Main Peak like in the inner courtyard, and why does it attract so much attention?" Qin Xin inquired.
Seeing that Qin Xin knew nothing about the Kunmen main peak, Ming Ningzhu paused for a moment before speaking, "The Kunmen main peak existed before the establishment of the Eastern Wilderness Academy, while the other sects were established later."
"Back then, the Eastern Wilderness Academy relied on this Kunmen Main Peak. It was not only the number one power in the Eastern Wilderness, but also a top-tier power in the five regions of the Yunxi Domain. But for some reason, all the disciples in the Kunmen Main Peak disappeared overnight. After that, the founder of the Eastern Wilderness Academy disappeared, leaving only a closed Kunmen Main Peak."
"For nearly a thousand years, countless people have tried to uncover the secrets of the Kunmen main peak, but all have ultimately failed."
After hearing Ming Ningzhu's introduction, Qin Xin finally gained some understanding of the Kunmen main peak.
Before they could finish speaking, the Wind-Riding Eagle slowly descended, and the two of them appeared in the inner courtyard.
