Niu Dachun passed through the moon gate and arrived at the third level of the secret realm.
The third level of the secret realm is different from the first and second levels. The third level is a bamboo forest, with a faint fragrance permeating the air, and a secluded path leading to the deepest part of the bamboo forest.
Niu Dachun walked along the secluded path for a distance.
When you reach the end of the road, you will see a building. The building is not tall and has three floors.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, the air was filled with the melodious and graceful sound of a guzheng. The beautiful and moving music stirred Niu Dachun's heart and nourished his soul.
Niu Dachun was able to eliminate much of his fatigue and forget many of the troubles of the world in an instant.
This piece of music almost made Niu Dachun give up his obsession with investigating his father's death.
Niu Dachun suddenly realized that something was wrong with the music; it had a bewitching effect. He calmed himself and cleared his mind of distractions.
He peered at the building with his mysterious purple eyes.
Only see,
A stunningly beautiful woman dressed in gorgeous attire sat in the side room, gently plucking the strings of a guzheng, and the captivating music emanated from her.
The woman's face was fair, slightly snowy, slightly peach-like. Her melancholy eyes held a cool gaze, as if telling her own story, and anyone who saw her couldn't help but feel a sense of pity.
The woman sat gracefully in the side room, her movements as if flowing gently like water, exuding an elegant and refined air. She was like a lotus flower blooming on land, or like a scattered star in the heavens.
Even Niu Dachun was stunned for several seconds when he saw it.
What surprised Niu Dachun even more was that he was unable to penetrate the woman's sea of consciousness with his Xuan Yin Zi Tong. Her sea of consciousness was pitch black, or rather, she had no sea of consciousness at all.
However, in Niu Dachun's view, no matter who the opponent is, as long as they threaten him, their only fate is death.
Even the most beautiful woman is nothing more than a pink skeleton.
Niu Dachun entered the room.
The room was exquisitely decorated, filled with guzheng (Chinese zither) instruments, and the entire room had a very homey feel. Niu Dachun even sensed from the furniture that more than just the woman in front of him lived there.
There were other people, but Niu Dachun had not yet found anyone else.
The woman spoke softly when she saw Niu Dachun arrive.
"You've come to see me again?"
"Let me pour you some tea."
As she spoke, the woman stood up, went to another table, picked up the already boiled teapot, and poured tea for Niu Dachun. Her movements were methodical and mechanical, almost like those of a machine.
"The tea is ready."
"You drink it."
Niu Dachun glanced at the tea; it was top-grade Da Hong Pao, and there was no poison in it—just a very ordinary cup of tea.
Niu Dachun glanced around the entire pavilion again, but found nothing of value. Feeling bored, he headed straight for the back door of the pavilion.
Are you leaving?
When will you come to see me again?
The woman leaned against the doorframe, looking at Niu Dachun. At this moment, her melancholy gaze turned into reluctance, and her affectionate eyes were like a sky full of falling snowflakes.
Even Niu Dachun got goosebumps after seeing it.
Just as Niu Dachun left the attic, the sound of a guzheng came from inside once again. Although Niu Dachun didn't understand the guzheng, he vaguely recognized it as the famous piece, "The Butterfly Lovers"...
Niu Dachun couldn't help but feel a strange sense of emotion; what kind of trial was this?
If the first and second levels are about fighting monsters and can be considered trials, then isn't this third level just ridiculous? Is this level called the "Beauty Barrier"?
Thinking of this, Niu Dachun couldn't help but chuckle to himself. It seemed this secret realm was nothing special after all.
With that in mind, Niu Dachun passed through the moon gate on the third level without hesitation. He no longer had much patience to linger here.
Upon arriving at the fourth level of the secret realm, a powerful pressure immediately washed over him. He hadn't felt the pressure from the previous three levels at all.
However, the fourth level was different. Niu Dachun could feel that the pressure of this level was at least ten times stronger than the previous three levels combined.
If a high-level martial artist were to step into this place, they would instantly bleed from all seven orifices and die a violent death. Even a peak martial artist like Yun Xi might not be able to stand up here. The pressure here is different from others; it is mixed with a great deal of resentment.
Moreover, Niu Dachun was in a school at this time, but there was no youthful sunshine on campus. Instead, black fog filled the air, and corpses lay everywhere, their deaths extremely gruesome.
There were hardly any intact corpses to be seen; every one of them had begun to rot, and some were crawling with maggots, making them look extremely disgusting.
Niu Dachun, who possesses the Xuan Yin Purple Eyes, can see through the black mist. This school is extremely large, and there are corpses all along the way. Niu Dachun can hardly imagine how frightened those low-level martial artists from Yunxi would be if they came here.
Niu Dachun quickened his pace. It wasn't that Niu Dachun was afraid, but rather that he felt disgusted. Looking at these things was like looking at excrement in a toilet.
Every second Niu Dachun stayed longer meant another second of nausea.
However, just as Niu Dachun entered the thick fog, the corpses that had been lying on the ground seemed to sense his intrusion. They actually got up, twisting their bodies and uttering low moans as they walked towards Niu Dachun.
Niu Dachun didn't know what to call these things in front of him. Were they zombies? Or ghouls? It didn't matter.
Because they will all die again.
Just as Niu Dachun was drawn to the monster in front of him, one of the monsters at his feet suddenly bit down on his leg.
Niu Dachun sensed something was wrong, immediately pulled his foot out, and punched the monster beneath his feet.
Instantly, the monster turned into a few bones.
Within a few short seconds.
The monsters in the school seemed to have suddenly awakened, gathering more and more towards Niu Dachun. In the end, the group of monsters emerged from the black mist and actually formed a human wall.
All the monsters were groaning, their voices sounding like calls from hell, sending chills down one's spine and making one tremble all over.
This human wall, composed of all the dead students in the school, was massive and like a raging wave, surging towards Niu Dachun. Even if they didn't bite Niu Dachun to death, they would be trampled to death in front of this human wall.
However, Niu Dachun was not afraid of this human wall at all.
Niu Dachun inhaled and exhaled, circulating his spiritual energy...
