Therefore, Xiao Li tries her best not to enter the space with her real body, and at most only stores some personal items.
As life gradually calmed down, Xiao Li inquired about Xiao Jiu's situation and discovered that he actually possessed a rare dark spiritual root.
However, the demon race in this world rarely comes into contact with cultivators, and since he is a half-beast, he is even less likely to be accepted by humans.
There was no way to access cultivation techniques. Fortunately, Xiao Li's space contained cultivation techniques for various spiritual roots, so she asked Xiao Jiu to find a technique suitable for dark spiritual roots.
He found an opportunity to pass it on to An, and from then on An's cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds.
Hu Lie still held a place among the elders, and the clan quickly accepted the existence of An.
The younger generation often practiced and sparred together. With the introduction of Xiao Li, Hu Jiu Niang, and Hu Shisan Lang, An gradually integrated into the younger generation of the fox clan.
In any era, the strong are respected. Xiao Li proved her strength with her powerful cultivation, becoming a leader among the younger generation.
Hu Jiuniang and Hu Shisanlang also diligently cultivated under Xiaoli's influence, and their cultivation levels broke through rapidly.
Hu Lie and his aunt were very grateful to Xiao Li. The family was harmonious and happy, and Xiao Li once again felt the rare warmth of family affection.
Soon, the once-in-a-decade competition began.
The Forbidden Land is a very mysterious place, containing many treasures and legacies of our predecessors, and it is even connected to a dilapidated little secret realm.
The younger generation is eager for this opportunity, and under Xiao Li's influence, the strength of this generation of young people has reached a new level.
First came the chaotic battle, and this time 90% of the participants will be eliminated.
"Third Sister, as a small group, let's eliminate the others first."
Xiao Li nodded in agreement. The four of them were powerful and quickly secured a small area.
Seeing that the four of them formed a group, the others all challenged them, daring not to mess with them.
The four of them easily won the first round.
The second round is the ring match.
The four of them each guarded a ring. Xiao Li naturally faced the challenge with ease, while the other three, though somewhat disheveled, ultimately won.
In the competition among ten people, the four of them each secured a spot, thus earning all four a place to enter the forbidden area.
The Grand Elder led the top ten to open the barrier of the forbidden area.
"The ten of you may stay in the forbidden area for one month. After one month, you must return here and leave the forbidden area."
"Yes, Elder."
As the barrier closed, the other six people each headed towards their own goals.
Apart from Xiao Li and An, all ten of them came from high-level backgrounds, and they all brought the experience of their elders with them and had their own goals.
"Third Sister, Father and Mother have given us our destination, let's set off now."
"Okay, be careful and stay safe. If anything happens, send a signal and we'll be there as soon as possible."
"I know, you too."
After saying goodbye, Hu Jiuniang and Hu Shisanlang also left, and An also went to the place Hu Lie had given him.
Xiao Li did not follow the map. As soon as she entered, she had a strong feeling that she should go to the central area, which was a forbidden zone. Hu Lie had told her not to go there, as it was very dangerous.
But Xiaoli had a gut feeling that her opportunity lay there.
After walking all day, she came to a field of thorns.
The area was overgrown with thorns and there wasn't even a path. Xiao Li took out her dagger, infused it with spiritual power, and instantly sword energy danced wildly, leaving the thorns in a mess.
Just as Xiao Li was exhausted, the thorns quickly sprouted new branches and turned into long, thorny vines that rushed towards her, trying to entangle her.
Xiao Li quickly drank a sip of the spiritual spring water to replenish her spiritual energy.
The dagger was too short and ineffective, so she quickly switched to a large machete. Thorns flew everywhere, branches fell to the ground, but more sprouted up.
With the situation at a stalemate, Xiaoli had no choice but to summon Youyou. With a whoosh, the thorns retreated. This fire was clearly not to be trifled with, so it was better to let this prey go.
Xiao Li wasn't about to let it go, so Youyou chased after the thorns. A moment later, it returned carrying a small green bead.
Xiao Li put it and its prize back into her space, watching as it buried the green bead under the roots of the Heavenly Heart Tree. The Heavenly Heart Tree waved its branches, seemingly caressing Youyou.
Xiao Li swaggered away.
Before long, she came to a bamboo forest. The whistling wind carried a mournful sound, stirring up Xiaoli's memories.
She seemed to see the headmistress, holding her broken body, crying uncontrollably.
And the younger brothers and sisters in the welfare home are all waiting for me to go back and buy them delicious food and tell them stories.
"Master, wake up quickly."
Who is it?
Xiao Li vaguely recalled, "This voice sounds so familiar. Who am I?"
Xiao Li slowly regained her senses. She ate a mist bead fruit, and her eyes became even clearer.
Damn it, how dare they bewitch me! The fox clan is the ancestor of seductive arts, okay? I never thought I would fall for their trick.
She searched carefully in the bamboo forest and soon found a thousand-year-old purple bamboo. It had actually fused with the broken soul of a fox clan elder, no wonder it could bewitch people.
However, although it had gained intelligence, it was still confused and only instinctively used its skills to confuse passing animals and absorb nutrients to grow.
Xiao Li dug it up without hesitation and planted it in her own space. It was a good material for refining weapons, and she couldn't let it go.
Ten days later, Xiao Li finally arrived at the central area.
The place was desolate. Xiao Li walked into the only standing hall and searched it carefully, but still found nothing.
That's true. Countless people have searched the forbidden area. Why would they leave anything good for her?
Reluctantly, she left the main hall, intending to explore other areas.
I glanced at the dilapidated gate and noticed a green toad on it, seemingly watching me.
Xiao Li stopped and touched it with her hand. The green toad's mouth was wide open, as if it wanted to be fed.
Xiao Li curiously took a small pearl from her spatial storage and put it inside.
Click-clack... Click-clack...
Xiao Li was startled and took a step back; it turned out to be a trap.
The toad smacked its lips twice, opening them even wider.
Xiao Li found it quite fun, so she took out a few more larger pearls and put them in.
Click, click...
The sound became even louder, and the mechanism spun even faster.
Xiao Li was staring at the toad when, unexpectedly, her footing gave way, and she fell.
After rolling around several times, Xiao Li finally stopped, dusted herself off, and stood up to look around.
This is a spacious, secret room, with many luminous pearls embedded in the ceiling, illuminating the room as brightly as day.
On the only table was a box. Xiao Li carefully opened it and found a white bead inside that looked somewhat familiar.
