"Second Senior Sister, will anyone from the Immortal Sound Sword Pavilion be coming?"
"No, a good secret realm has also appeared near the Immortal Sound Sword Pavilion. The danger level is not high, and the opportunities are also good. Sect Master Chen Ling has to stay and oversee it. Most of the disciples are currently in that secret realm."
Ye Sisi nodded. Heaven had indeed not lied. Because Heaven was perfect, many secret realms would appear in the Spirit Realm, making it a good era for cultivation.
Before long, the violent power on the lake completely disappeared. A white light flashed across the entire lake surface, and the next moment the white light faded. The originally clear blue lake water seemed to have turned into a huge piece of glass inlaid on the ground, looking magnificent and mysterious.
Ye Sisi and Ouyang Yanyu did not go in immediately. They were already on the outskirts of the crowd, so they were not in a hurry.
One by one, the figures of the crowd disappeared into the entrance of the secret realm. Ye Sisi and Ouyang Yanyu held hands and stepped in with the crowd.
As soon as she landed, Ye Sisi released her divine sense to survey her surroundings. This place should be a small secret realm that evolved naturally and is unclaimed. One of the biggest characteristics of a secret realm is that it is rich in spiritual energy, and this place is no exception.
However, this place is different from most secret realms. This secret realm can suppress the cultivation level of cultivators. She was a Mahayana cultivator, but she was suppressed to the Out-of-Body stage. However, it was not a big problem. She was not afraid of those of the same cultivation level. Moreover, she did not come here to kill people. She just came to pick up some treasures. She could not learn to kill and rob. The premise was that others did not provoke her.
Perhaps because this place was being opened to the outside world for the first time, there were quite a few good things inside, including some that Ye Sisi had never even heard of. Fortunately, Ouyang Yanyu came along. With this genius alchemist present, even those who didn't recognize the plants could identify their uses.
In particular, there is a type of mushroom that is entirely golden in color, which has a remarkable effect on strengthening the body's foundation and nourishing vital energy, but no one outside the area has ever heard of it.
Then there's a spring deep in the mountains. Just standing there and smelling it is incredibly refreshing, let alone drinking from it. And it's especially good for the soul! Damn it, how could Ye Sisi miss out on something so wonderful? Of course they couldn't! They came here specifically to find rare and precious herbs that could nourish the soul, and this spring water is simply amazing! It's just a pity there's not enough of it. Even though they were the first to discover this spring, they only managed to collect a small bottle—a small Qiankun bottle, of course.
It was thanks to their formidable strength that they were able to snatch food from so many demonic beasts and cultivators. Ye Sisi became more and more excited as she walked, feeling that the entire secret realm was full of treasures.
That day, Ye Sisi and Ouyang Yanyu were picking Star Fruits on a star lake. They named them themselves because they had no choice; it was another kind of spiritual fruit they had never seen before.
However, the power contained within the fruit is mysterious. It is neither spiritual power nor like the essence of the sun or moon. Instead, it is somewhat similar to the power of stars in the sky, but whether it is or not cannot be determined.
Anyway, she didn't feel anything after eating it. It neither increased her spiritual power nor strengthened her physique. The taste was quite good, though. Ye Sisi ate it as a snack.
The entire Star Lake was covered with these Star Fruits, which were blue as the base color and dotted with tiny stars. Ye Sisi and her companion were not greedy and planned to pick half of them before leaving. Cough cough, they really only picked half.
Ye Sisi ate and picked as she went. They had arrived at dusk, when Xinghu Lake was bathed in the golden sunset and looked incredibly beautiful. But now it was completely dark, and the stars were slowly lighting up in the pitch-black night.
The lake, which resembled a starry night sky, seemed to have dragged down the sea of stars overhead as night fell.
Ye Sisi was mesmerized by the sight; it was truly beautiful, breathtakingly so.
But what's most breathtaking isn't the mesmerizing scenery, but rather how, as night deepens, a bridge slowly forms between the distant stars and the nearby Star Fruit.
Ye Sisi glanced at the Star Fruit she was about to put in her mouth, then looked at the dazzling starlight around her. Their names were really fitting.
These spiritual fruits were indeed born from absorbing the power of the stars. Her knowledge was limited. Whether it was ancient books and jade slips or the inheritance from her elders, for at least tens of thousands of years in the Spirit Realm, all cultivators had used spiritual energy for cultivation. Although this distant and mysterious power of the stars was occasionally recorded, its specific function was not explained. It was as if it was just a mysterious form of energy that was dispensable to the cultivation world.
But the Star Lake before her seemed quite special. How did it connect with the stars? And how could it perfectly store this power within the spiritual fruit? For some reason, Ye Sisi had a feeling that if this power of the stars were used well, it might be the key to her successful condensation of her divine spark.
I wonder if my senior brother knows the effects of the power of stars, or if he recognizes the Star Fruit. He comes from the Outer Heavens, so he should know about it.
She changed her mind; she wanted all the Star Fruits here—well, of course, the ones that hadn't been picked by anyone else.
Before that, she had to conduct an experiment. She wanted to try refining the power of the stars. Since both spiritual energy and the power of the stars came from this universe and were unique forms of energy, perhaps refining a portion of the power of the stars would have some unexpected effects.
Of course, she wouldn't take too many risks. She would first guide a wisp of star power into her body, and if she could truly refine it, she would continue.
After telling Ouyang Yanyu, Ye Sisi sat down cross-legged and began to circulate her cultivation technique. Coincidentally, the cultivation technique practiced by their Tianling Sect was called the Qi Refining Technique. Don't be fooled by its ordinary name; its description is anything but ordinary.
This cultivation method not only aims for ascension but also has no restrictions on spiritual roots. The final introduction of the method also includes the sentence: "All kinds of energy in the world can be cultivated."
Ye Sisi was directly introduced to the sect by Meng Tianyuan, so she did not see the written version of this cultivation technique. However, she later read through the entire library of the Tianling Sect, so she did see the written version of the Qi Refining Technique. At that time, she only felt that the senior who wrote this sentence was domineering. All kinds of qi in the world can be refined. What about demonic qi, evil qi, blood qi, yin qi? These are also kinds of qi.
She wouldn't be so foolish as to try to refine the Yin Sha Qi that would lead to her eternal damnation. In fact, before today, she had never even considered using the Qi Refining Technique to refine anything other than spiritual energy.
But today, she's going to try this Qi Refining Technique, which claims to be able to refine all kinds of Qi in the world, and see if it can refine this mysterious power of the stars. Cough cough, although the power of new and old doesn't have the word "Qi," it should still be considered a kind of Qi, right?
