Once the two disciples joined forces, their momentum was truly unstoppable!
Ye Qinghan was responsible for scouting and clearing the way, while Li Shiyao was responsible for protecting her senior sister and clearing obstacles for her.
The two took turns providing cover, and their speed increased steadily until they reached their destination.
However, there was nothing on the parchment; inside the black marble room, there was nothing but a table.
It's called a desk, but it's actually just a black square marble table that looks like a display case.
On the platform, instead of what the two were looking for, there was a map.
According to the location marked on the map...
The two of them went in the wrong direction from the very beginning!
"How was it, Senior Sister?"
In the secret realm created by their master, the only place to rest was the tower. While Ye Qinghan was checking the map, Li Shiyao was still holding up the Chaos Bell to suppress the ferocious beast.
"Uh... the good news is, we have a map."
"There's more bad news?" Li Shiyao looked incredulous; she thought it was over!
Ye Qinghan was also a little tired; his master really knew how to scheme...
This secret realm is much more difficult to conquer than the one in the Eastern Region!
Once inside this secret realm, the two of them were practically blind!
They can't see them! They can't kill them all! They won't let us use our magic weapons!
Having finally made it this far, hoping to find the incense burner or the broken bowl that Master wanted, even just one would be enough, but all I have is a broken map...
The bad news is, we've gone the wrong way...
Upon hearing this, Li Shiyao felt as if she were about to die...
"Shiyao, you take a rest. I'll lead the way. Let's go to the left. There's a tall tower on the left where we can rest."
What can Li Shiyao do?
Besides listening to my senior sister, what other options are there?
But trapped in a tight encirclement, without her Chaos Bell, advancing would likely be even more difficult.
"Senior sister, Shiyao is alright. Let's rush to the top of the tower in one go and have a good rest."
Ye Qinghan looked at Li Shiyao, who was holding up the Chaos Bell with both hands raised to the sky, with a slight surprise. He seemed to understand why the two of them had been summoned by their master to find something.
They were even deliberately given different tasks to find different things.
Clearly, if they searched separately, they would not be able to get out. Like headless flies, they would both be trapped in a tower of unknown location.
From the very beginning, this was a two-person mission.
On the contrary, she left Li Shiyao behind from the very beginning, wanting to complete the task assigned to her by her master first.
"Okay, senior sister will clear the way for you!"
As he spoke, a three-foot-long white jade sword floated in the air, and the Frost Sword Intent instantly spread out. With a single sword strike, he parted the clouds and cleared away the ferocious beasts blocking Li Shiyao's path in an instant.
"Let's go!"
Before long, the two arrived at the new tower.
Li Shiyao's jade pendant contained a lot of food, and for the first time, Ye Qinghan felt that Li Shiyao was really useful!
Li Shiyao's little cloth bag may not look big, but it was filled with lots of delicious food!
Ye Qinghan initially thought there were only steamed buns inside, until Li Shiyao pulled out a braised chicken and two jugs of liquor...
"Shiyao, does your little cloth bag have storage space too?"
Li Shiyao nodded: "This was sewn by the First Elder for Shiyao. It is said that it was altered from the dowry given to her by the First Elder's wife."
Ordinary storage rings can't do nesting, but the jade pendant given by the master is different. The master's jade pendant can store storage rings, which is the secret behind why Ye Qinghan could leave no trace after ransacking the house.
So Li Shiyao's small cloth bag could fit inside, but Li Shiyao probably didn't realize how rare the jade pendant was.
Ye Qinghan nodded thoughtfully, thinking that the Holy Mountain was really good to this little fool!
The little cloth bag didn't look very pretty; on the contrary, it was quite ordinary, and the corners were all dirty from Li Shiyao's playful smudges.
But it's clear that Li Shiyao cherishes it very much, after all, there aren't many things that this little silly girl can carry around with her.
If it weren't for her master's instructions, she probably wouldn't have wanted to carry any magical treasures other than the Chaos Bell with her, finding them too troublesome.
After eating a simple meal, Ye Qinghan spread the map on the ground and pressed his head against it.
"Senior sister, where are we now?" Li Shiyao seemed to really enjoy being the strategist and was starting to get into the zone.
Ye Qinghan briefly gestured on the map and explained to Li Shiyao the route they had taken and their current location.
"Huh? Then we've gone the wrong way!"
"That's why I just said it."
Li Shiyao didn't mind and continued, "Senior sister, this map..."
"how?"
Where is what Master wants?
The two looked at the map and exchanged a glance...
The map marked many places, including the tower marked with a red triangle and "supply points" in the wild, which are similar to the places where the two of them obtained the map.
According to the map, those supply points might contain magical items that the two of them could use, or perhaps clues...
However, Ye Qinghan didn't care at this moment. Knowing that his master intended for the two of them to establish a cooperative mindset, Ye Qinghan naturally had no objections.
As long as Li Shiyao truly understands what to do, the two can at least cooperate and move forward together, even if it's not just a matter of a glance.
"I suspect that most of these towers will require searching one tower at a time."
This wasn't the first time the two had explored the secret realm. The patterns in the secret realm were always traceable. Since their master had said that, he wouldn't lie to them. The incense burner and the broken bowl must be in the secret realm.
