Mi Li felt somewhat uneasy.
She was just a little cat demon with no other skills. The reason she was able to live so long was largely due to Fu You, but she also had her own instinct to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune.
She instinctively felt close to Fu You, and deep down, she had never been afraid of him.
But the two people standing outside the cave now are different.
She was afraid of them.
It wasn't because of their immortal cultivation level, but simply a kind of instinctive fear of human nature!
She reached out and tugged at Fu You's clothes.
Fu You patted her hand, signaling her to calm down, and then slowly walked out.
The two people at the entrance were dressed in flowing white robes, with handsome features and an air of arrogance about them—the kind of presence only found in great immortal sects.
In the past few days, Fu You has finally figured out the relationships between these immortal sects. There are countless immortal sects in the ten immortal domains of the immortal realm, and the Wangyue Immortal Sect ranks third with countless disciples.
There are only eight Immortal Emperors in the entire Immortal Realm, each of whom is a regional overlord. The Moon Gazing Immortal Emperor is the sect leader of the Moon Gazing Immortal Sect and the most powerful being in the Eternal Joy Immortal Realm.
This time, the Jade Immortal Valley Secret Realm is located at the border of the Yongle Immortal Realm and another immortal realm.
Legend has it that long ago, the Immortal Realm and the Divine Realm were not yet separated. There were many powerful beings there, and each brought rare and precious treasures. But later, for some unknown reason, the Immortal Realm and the Divine Realm separated. The two realms were clearly divided, just like the division between heaven and earth, extremely clear.
In only a very few places, the rules governing the realms of gods and immortals are still unclear.
These places are usually hidden in chaos and only open at certain special times; such places are called secret realms.
The Jade Immortal Valley Secret Realm is one of them. It opens once every sixty years, and each time it opens, it causes a great sensation. This secret realm is very special. Only people below the Immortal Lord level can enter. Even ordinary people can enter without any problems, but people above the Immortal Lord level will be crushed to pieces the moment they step in.
Therefore, in the years before the secret realm opened, every newcomer who had just ascended to the Ascension Platform was a target for various immortal sects to win over.
In particular, a peerless demon like Xiang Fuyou, who is infamous in the cultivation world, is a resource that all immortal sects are vying for.
The young monks who ascended to the Immortal Realm years earlier did not have such worries, because by the time the secret realm opened, such Immortal Lords would probably have already cultivated to the level of Immortal King or Immortal Venerable, which would be completely useless to them.
The two from the Moon Gazing Immortal Sect looked at Fu You with a moment of amazement in their eyes. As long as demon cultivators do not do evil, cultivation is very convenient in the Immortal Realm. After all, the Immortal Realm is all-encompassing, and there are all kinds of people who have ascended from the cultivation world. Demon cultivators are actually quite common.
They were amazed by Fu You's aura, the demeanor of someone in power. It must be said that Fu You, who had been the leader of the Demon Alliance for tens of thousands of years in the cultivation world, had a very intimidating appearance.
The two laughed and said, "This is a contract. If Immortal Lord Fuyou finds it acceptable, he may leave his handprint."
Fu You frowned: "What is this?"
"Now that you've signed this contract, we can hand over the tokens for entering the secret realm. Don't be suspicious, Immortal Lord. This contract simply clarifies what we just discussed, so you won't deny it after you leave the secret realm. You should know that the number of people entering the secret realm each time is limited. We've paid such a high price, so some protection is only right. What do you think, Immortal Lord?"
Fu You narrowed his eyes and glanced at the contract. There was nothing wrong with the contents of the contract. The problem was with the paper on which the contract was written. As long as his handprint was left on it, no matter where he fled to in the future, the people of Wangyue Immortal Sect could find him through the receipt he left on this paper.
No matter what he brings out of the secret realm, it will eventually fall into the hands of the Moon Gazing Immortal Sect!
This is equivalent to a kill order!
mean!
Fu You sneered, "Since the Moon Gazing Immortal Sect has no intention of cooperating, then please!"
The two men's expressions changed, and one of them forced a smile and said, "What do you mean by that, Immortal Lord Fuyou? Have we not been sincere enough and offended you?"
Fu You cupped his hands in greeting. “My reputation in the cultivation world has never been good. I was able to establish the Demon Alliance by fighting and killing. I have used the method of hunting down those who are not convinced. The Wangyue Immortal Sect is a famous sect in the Immortal Realm. I did not expect that they would also know these ghostly tricks of tracking and killing.”
The two men didn't look too pleased. For two Immortal Venerables to invite a mere Immortal Lord was already a condescension, and this one was so ungrateful. However, this also showed that Fu You was not someone to be trifled with, and the two men gained some confidence. They exchanged a glance and said:
"The same thing will naturally have different effects depending on who does it. The Moon Gazing Immortal Sect disdains using underhanded tricks, but it is never wrong to be ruthless. It is always good to be prepared. Since Immortal Lord Fuyou has rejected the Moon Gazing Immortal Sect, other immortal sects will not dare to use you. It will probably not be easy for Immortal Lord Fuyou to go to Jade Immortal Valley!"
Fu You gestured for them to come in. "I have my own plans. You two have come from afar, so I should invite you in for a seat. However, I have just ascended to immortality and am penniless. I have neither tea nor wine to entertain you. Please, you two!"
The two men gave a cold laugh and turned to leave.
I need to consult with the sect protectors about how to handle this matter when I get back. Killing Fu You is not difficult; the difficulty lies in Fu You's flamboyance. At least before the secret realm opens, he cannot die. As for after the secret realm opens, many more people will die.
Fu You looked in the direction the two had left, his brows furrowed with seriousness. The Immortal Realm was not as beautiful as he had imagined. So how did Su Shijin and Su Li manage to earn the reputation of "Bonnie and Clyde" in the Immortal Realm back then?
He also longed for something for nothing...
Back in the cave.
Mi Li looked at Fu You with a worried expression.
Fu You was in a great mood. He reached out and ruffled Mi Li's soft, gentle hair. "We should go."
"Meow~... Uh, we haven't been here long!" Mi Li's voice was soft and sweet, with the unique babyish tone of a young girl.
Fu You felt as if a small hand was stroking her chest, which was very comfortable.
"Hmm, I've decided. I'm going to find my old friends and see how they're doing!" Fu You felt it was unwise to stay here any longer. He didn't know if those two people from the Moon Gazing Immortal Sect would launch a surprise attack. It was too dangerous to just sit and wait for death.
Fu You left without warning, and Mi Li cooperated by transforming into a small cat, lazily perched on Fu You's shoulder.
A handsome man with a pure white cat on his shoulder—this combination is undeniably adorable.
Not long after the two left, the two members of the Moon Gazing Immortal Sect who had left earlier returned. Seeing that the cave was empty, they couldn't help but curse angrily, "They ran away! Cunning!"
“Chase him. He can’t have gone far. Take him back and hand him over to the Dharma Protector for punishment.”
The two followed the trail left by Fu You and slowly pursued her.
Fu You's greatest skill was tracking, and his ability to counter-track was also quite impressive. He quickly led Mi Li and the other person away from the Yongle Immortal Realm and into the Zhehai Immortal Realm next to it.
The place where the two immortal realms meet is Jade Immortal Valley. Now it is bustling with people, and immortal sects from all directions are rushing here. Soon a lively market will be formed.
After entering the Zhehai Immortal Realm, Fu You found a place to stay near Yuxian Valley, sent out a signal, and then began to concentrate on cultivation.
Many members of the Monster Alliance have successfully ascended to immortality with the help of the Enlightenment Stone.
Fu You hadn't initially considered contacting them, as their cultivation level was certainly higher than his at that time.
Monsters are very realistic beings; if their cultivation level is low, those people may not listen to them anymore.
But now, he had no choice but to seek them out. At least there was some semblance of kinship, and he felt that his former subordinates could still be salvaged.
However……
Things were much worse than Fu You had imagined; no one came for three days.
"Meow~... Uh~" There was a hint of doubt in Mi Li's sleepy eyes.
Fu You gently rubbed her head and pinched her soft little ears, whispering, "It's okay, I won't do anything dangerous."
At worst, we can just wait another sixty years.
He waited for tens of thousands of years, but sixty years is but a fleeting moment.
Mi Li nuzzled his wrist, revealing a sweet smile. "You're so sweet!"
Fu You felt somewhat restless.
Did Mi Li even realize how suggestive her appearance was? He barely managed to control his emotions, telling himself that Mi Li was still a child and he couldn't harm a child.
Heaven knows why the Shadow Cat Clan grows so slowly. Even though Mi Li is already tens of thousands of years old, according to the information Fu You later found about the Shadow Cat Clan, it takes hundreds of thousands of years for a Shadow Cat to reach adulthood.
Therefore, based on the age of Mi Li's Shadow Cat Clan, Mi Li is clearly still a teenager.
Fu You felt he couldn't be too beastly.
But I'm so hungry!
He tried hard to control his wild thoughts, not wanting to appear too eager in front of Mi Li, and said gently, "Let's find a place to cultivate in seclusion!"
He still had some resources in his storage bag, enough for him to cultivate for a while. Most importantly, he also had the fragments of the Enlightenment Stone given to him by Su Shijin.
Su Shijin's Enlightenment Stone is extraordinary and will help him with his current cultivation. He plans to use these things to practice until he reaches the Immortal King level, and then gradually seize resources.
At worst, he won't go to Jade Fairy Valley.
Thinking this way, I felt regretful, so I didn't leave very quickly.
Not long after walking out, I heard a somewhat sullen voice. "Huh, the others didn't come? Just you? I didn't expect you, Fu You, to have fallen to such a state. Tsk tsk!"
Fu You turned around and saw a man with a wicked smile, a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, his expression mocking, seemingly unafraid of Fu You at all.
The man who came was named Chen Guang. He used to be a great demon from another mountain. He lived for tens of thousands of years but could not ascend to the Mahayana realm. Later, his mountain was taken over by Su Shijin. After experiencing the benefits of the Enlightenment Stone, he took the initiative to join the demon alliance.
He used to be one of Fu You's best henchmen, but now it seems that even if I offer myself up to be his henchman, Chen Guang might not want me.
Fu You looked at him silently. "None of them came."
"Hahahaha!" As expected, Chen Guang laughed, a gloating laugh.
The laughter made Mi Li very uncomfortable, and in a fit of anger, she grinned at Chen Guang, revealing her cute little tiger teeth. "Ouch~"
Fu You was somewhat bewildered. "..."
Chen Guang stopped laughing and looked at Mi Li curiously. When he saw the light pink mark between her eyebrows, he belatedly realized that it was that little cat demon.
She has transformed into human form!
A serious look appeared in Chen Guang's eyes. "You want to go to the Jade Immortal Valley Secret Realm?"
Fu You's eyes flickered slightly. The fact that Chen Guang had arrived without immediately attacking meant he didn't intend to kill each other. "Yes!"
Chen Guang frowned and thought for a moment. “It will be difficult for you to go. The Moon Gazing Immortal Emperor said that you injured two other Immortal Lords under his command and tried to steal their tokens. Later, you were discovered and used a secret technique to escape. Now you are a wanted criminal in the Yongle Immortal Realm, and you also have a magic treasure that can evade the Immortal Emperor’s tracking. If you go out now, you will probably be devoured by everyone.”
Fu You was very annoyed; he was too cunning. Luckily, he left early.
The situation seems rather dire; no wonder the other monsters haven't come. It's just too realistic.
He looked at Chen Guang. "Do you have a way to get to the secret realm?"
Chen Guang's expression was complicated, clearly considering whether Fu You was worth doing this for.
Fu You secretly gathered power in his palm.
The air was heavy with tension.
After a long pause, Chen Guang laughed and said, "You can't beat me."
“You can give it a try!” Fu You said without backing down.
Chen Guang gave him a strange look, chuckled, and pulled a token from his robes, tossing it far to Fu You. "I killed a Celestial Lord and stole this from him. Now that's who you killed, remember to keep it a secret!"
Fu You accepted the token; it felt warm and smooth to the touch. Regardless of Chen Guang's motives for killing that Immortal Lord, at least for now, this token seemed to be legitimate.
Thank you!
"You're welcome!" Chen Guang's face held a strange smile. "Just don't regret your decision today later!"
As expected, their intentions were not good.
He put the token away, turned around and quickly left this dangerous place. If the timeline was real, then the place he had been staying before was no longer safe.
Mi Li followed him, and before leaving, she glared angrily at Chen Guang.
Chen Guang couldn't help but laugh. How interesting!
...
On the walls of the Yongle Immortal Realm, wanted posters for Fu You were plastered everywhere.
No one found Fu You, which greatly angered the Moon Gazing Immortal Emperor.
However, finding someone is insignificant. The secret realm is about to open, which is the most important thing. As long as Fu You dares to come, no matter what he is disguised as, he will definitely be able to find him in the crowd.
The day the secret realm opens.
Countless people holding tokens stood at the entrance of the secret realm, waiting for it to open so they could go inside.
On both sides of the passage leading into the secret realm stood many experts from various immortal sects, waiting to find any strange people inside and drag them out.
The secret realm took three full days to fully open, and the colorful streams of energy impacted everyone's minds like a dream.
The group began to walk into the secret realm.
