Liu Yunqing wanted to persuade Feng Piaopiao again, but the inner circle was becoming increasingly dazzling, and it would be too late if she went any later.
Looking at Feng Piaopiao's current attire, and thinking that it was different from his previous life, and that he had taken precautions in advance, he could at least help him avoid it.
Thinking this, Liu Yunqing said no more, and the two of them hurried towards the inner perimeter.
Fortunately, perhaps due to the unusual activity in the secret realm, apart from the cultivators on their journey, there were no demonic beasts to be seen. The two occasionally had minor squabbles along the way, but they resolved them quickly without wasting too much time.
Even so, when Liu Yunqing and the other arrived, there was no one left outside the secret realm, and the vortex entrance to the secret realm was about to close.
"Walk!"
Without hesitation, the two managed to enter the secret realm just before the vortex closed.
"What kind of place is this?"
As soon as we landed, Feng Piaopiao's complaints came over.
All around was a vast expanse of white, and Liu Yunqing's divine sense was also stuck, making it impossible to see anything beyond fifty centimeters.
Following the sound of the wind, Liu Yunqing tugged at the rope around her waist, only to find that the wind was coming from the opposite direction from which she heard the sound.
They were relieved that they had tied ropes around their waists before entering the secret realm.
Otherwise, if we come down, we might be misled by the secret realm and get separated from it.
Feng Piaopiao approached Liu Yunqing and, having clearly noticed the strangeness of the situation, stopped talking and leaned closer to ask Liu Yunqing with her eyes what to do next.
Liu Yunqing casually pointed in a direction and said:
"Let's go that way."
The two did not untie the ropes around their waists, and groped their way forward back to back.
Fortunately, although this fog obscures vision and spiritual sense, it is not aggressive and is not truly boundless.
The two followed one direction and groped their way forward for half an hour before they heard other voices.
Sure enough, after walking for less than the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, the two successfully left the foggy area.
Before the two could even see their surroundings clearly, an attack came straight at their faces.
The two dodged to the sides in unison, and a flash of light from a blade severed the ropes binding their waists.
"Ha, how come there are only two Qi Refining cultivators?"
The person who attacked the two men, after seeing their cultivation levels, said something with great disdain, then turned and left, ignoring them completely.
The two, who had already assumed fighting stances, only lowered their guard and began to survey their surroundings after the other person had gone far away.
After emerging from the mist, their consciousness was no longer restricted.
After thinking for a moment, Liu Yunqing released his divine sense with all his might and felt that he had basically seen the entire scene of the secret realm.
The secret realm was so small that it surprised Liu Yunqing, and the strange scenery within it surprised him even more.
The shape of this secret realm is very regular. The mist that cannot be penetrated by divine sense forms an inverted semicircle, enveloping the entire secret realm.
Well, to be precise, Liu Yunqing's divine sense only covered the area within the hemisphere shrouded in mist.
As for what lies beyond the mist, whether it's the surrounding area or the sky above, it's impossible to know whether it's outside the mist or an unopened area of the secret realm.
But within this clearly visible hemisphere, everyone is heading towards the center.
"Is there something at the center of this secret realm?"
"Isn't this a newly opened secret realm? How did they know there were things there?"
Feng Piaopiao's divine sense was not as strong as Liu Yunqing's, but she still noticed that everyone who came out of the mist was running towards the center of the secret realm.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yunqing shook her head and whispered:
"No, it's not that they know there's something in the center of the secret realm, but rather that no matter which direction they go, they all end up in the center of the secret realm."
"We're the same."
"Huh? You mean, everyone's under the control of this secret realm?"
Liu Yunqing's words made Feng Piaopiao stop in her tracks, her voice filled with unease and confusion.
The unease stems from the fact that such a mysterious realm, which affects one's mind without one's awareness, is either an opportunity or a death trap.
What puzzled him was that he found Liu Yunqing was right, but he couldn't sense any danger in this secret realm.
"It's not about control; look closely at the routes those people take."
Feng Piaopiao was somewhat troubled upon hearing this, and spread her hands towards Liu Yunqing, saying:
"I can't do that. If I scan someone with my divine sense, I'll be immediately discovered and get a good beating."
After saying that, he looked at Liu Yunqing with envy and said:
"I don't know how you cultivated. Your cultivation level is weaker than mine, but your spiritual sense is even more terrifying than those female cultivators from the Myriad Wonders Sect."
Upon hearing the name Wanmiao Sect, Liu Yunqing realized with a start that she hadn't seen Liu Yunzhao earlier.
"It's easy to get a spiritual consciousness like mine; just die for a hundred years and you'll have one."
Liu Yunqing casually answered Feng Piaopiao's question, and then released his divine sense again, scanning the entire secret realm like a carpet search.
"As expected, Liu Yunzhao is not there."
"Therefore, this place is not the entirety of the secret realm, but only a small part of it."
Having reached this conclusion, Liu Yunqing stopped and beckoned Feng Piaopiao to go to the center of the hemispherical space together.
Feng Piaopiao is now completely convinced by Liu Yunqing. She does whatever Liu Yunqing asks her to do, and doesn't bother to ask why.
With Liu Yunqing's powerful divine sense, the two, despite their low cultivation levels, took the shortest route and deliberately avoided populated areas.
With such full speed ahead, the two moved with incredible speed, reaching the center of the hemisphere in less than half an hour.
At this point, a group of people had already gathered at the center of the hemisphere.
When those people saw that it was Liu Yunqing and his companion who had arrived, they were only slightly surprised before shifting their gaze, as if they were waiting for something.
Liu Yunqing glanced at Feng Piaopiao, who instantly understood. She cleared her throat and walked towards one of them with captivating charm.
"Senior, may I ask what everyone is doing gathered here?"
The person being questioned was a bald, muscular man with a kind and honest face.
His gaze swept over Feng Piaopiao, and his wheat-colored face flushed red. He looked away in a flustered manner, feigning composure as he said:
"Yes, we're waiting for everyone to arrive before opening the central entrance."
Seeing how innocent this male cultivator was, Feng Piaopiao was already laughing inside, but on the surface, she still couldn't resist giving him a flirtatious look and continued to ask:
"Thank you so much, senior. You're amazing! How do you know everything?"
"However, I wonder if you know what the situation is like now that we've arrived at the center of that secret realm you mentioned?"
The burly man's face turned even redder. He scratched his face and cheeks, his eyes darting around, avoiding Feng Piaopiao's gaze, and said embarrassedly:
"I... I heard it from the fellow Daoists who arrived earlier."
"As for what's in the center of the secret realm, we don't know. They say it's some kind of inheritance."
Those around who witnessed the scene couldn't help but mock the burly man:
"Yu Lao Er, watch out for the honey trap, hahaha!"
"Exactly! Little beauty, if you ask a few more questions, Yu Lao Er might just strip you bare, hahaha!"
Yu Lao Er, whose face was already flushed, turned red all over his neck, but this time it was from anger.
"What nonsense are you spouting!"
Yu Lao Er flipped his hand and took out a ghost-head knife, pointing the tip at the person who had mocked him, and angrily said with a thick neck.
The two men were naturally not intimidated and drew their weapons to meet the attack.
Suddenly, someone shouted:
"The entrance is open!"
No one saw that before the shout, two figures had already silently drifted into the entrance.
