Sheng Ning had just finished dealing with the man-eating flower when he bumped into an old acquaintance.
There was no one around.
Because Buddhist practice refrains from killing.
The Buddhist disciples of the Lotus Sect collect spiritual plants in secret realms, or capture some relatively docile beasts to bring back to the sect for taming.
At this moment, Kong Wu was holding a demon beast's head in his hand, and blood was dripping from his fingertips in his long, white-sleeved hands that held the relic.
"So it was Benefactor Sheng. Amitabha."
Every time Sheng Ning saw Kong Wu, she felt uncomfortable all over.
The other party was clearly a Buddhist cultivator, yet he was bloodthirsty by nature. His red eyes seemed to be able to see through everything in the world, making people afraid to look him in the eye.
With her lips slightly pursed, Sheng Ning nodded slightly in greeting to him.
Not wanting to get too involved with Kong Wu, she greeted him and then pulled Yu Ye and the others to leave.
"Benefactor Sheng, why don't we go together?"
Before Sheng Ning even turned around, Kong Wu already guessed what she was going to do.
She forced herself to look up, gave an awkward laugh, and said, "Doesn't Master Kongwu need to protect his fellow disciples?"
Kongwu had already killed the sect leader, Master Kongkong, but he himself had not taken the position of sect leader.
Instead, he always identified himself as a disciple of the Lotus Sect.
It's clear how twisted he is. Anyone else would have been the sect leader by now, but he's stuck being a disciple leading a team into the secret realm.
The more Sheng Ning thought about it, the more she felt she needed to stay far away from him.
"Excuse me, my fellow disciples and I are shy, so we won't be with Master Kongwu."
"Please do as you please, Master!"
After quickly finishing speaking, Sheng Ning didn't turn around and grabbed Yu Ye and the others, running away on the spot.
No one remained standing there. Watching the figures of the others run away, he picked up the prayer beads in his hand and uttered a Buddhist chant.
"Amitabha......."
This Buddhist chant seemed to have a penetrating power, piercing straight into Sheng Ning's forehead.
Her steps quickened until she escaped the emptiness, at which point Sheng Ning slowed down.
"Junior Sister, do you have a grudge against Master Kongwu?"
Lu Qing'an and his group of five were merely nodding acquaintances with Kong Wu.
Before they died in their previous life, Kong Wu had already killed the Lotus Sect Master, Kong Kong.
The Invincible Sect was too small, and their master was afraid of strangers, so they did not go to offer their condolences.
The opportunity to nod to Kong Wu only came during this monster frenzy.
The other person seemed to have a connection with the junior sister, and they all nodded to him as well.
Sheng Ning took a bite of the spiritual fruit to quench her thirst, then shook her head upon hearing this, "No, I just don't like him."
The moment she stood in front of Kong Wu for even a second, it was as if he could see right through her.
The feeling was like thousands of ants crawling all over my body.
This made her frown uncomfortably.
Seeing the unease on her face, Yu felt a chill and immediately reached out to pinch her cheek.
The entire secret realm changes every cycle.
The plants and animals within will also change accordingly.
Sheng Ning looked up at the sky and said in a deep voice, "A sandstorm may hit the secret realm soon, Senior Brother, we need to speed up our progress."
Su Daiyuan and his group of five looked around at the endless forest and asked in confusion, "But there are big trees all around us."
With so many trees around, how could there be a large-scale sandstorm?
Su Daiyuan and his group of five had never been to the secret realm before.
But Sheng Ning knew about the environment inside the secret realm.
The environment, which changes every three days, will soon turn the surrounding trees into a desert.
In the original story, it was after this sandstorm that Shi Yueyao led several members of the Taixu Sect to unexpectedly discover a treasure cave left by an ancient immortal in the desert.
Using this treasure cave, the Taixu Sect not only won first place in the sect competition.
Qin Chuan and his companions received the inheritance from it.
The content here also laid the foundation for the Taixu Sect's later unification of the cultivation world.
Sheng Ning's words made Su Daiyuan and the other four frown.
This made Elder Qian, who was watching from the stands, frown.
Because Sheng Ning blew up the gate of the Taixu Sect, her reputation had already spread throughout the sect.
Logically speaking, Sheng Ning was an outer disciple of the Taixu Sect and a menial servant, so he shouldn't know anything.
However, her current performance is no less impressive than that of disciples who have entered the secret realm several times before.
With a furrowed brow, Elder Qian turned his gaze to the location of Qin Chuan and his group of six.
Sheng Ning, indeed, cannot be kept.
-
For the first three days in the secret realm, Sheng Ning and his group of six used their divine senses to avoid most of the cultivators.
They had Gatling guns and small landmines, and Yu Ye also had various talismans on him, so they could easily handle ordinary mutated monsters or spiritual plants.
The night was slightly cool.
A breeze brushed against Sheng Ning's cheek.
She, who was meditating, suddenly opened her eyes, a glint of light flashing in them, "They've arrived."
"What's coming?" Yu Ye was resting on a tree branch when he heard this. He immediately flew down from the tree, spread his divine sense, and only withdrew his gaze after finding nothing.
"Junior Sister, what's here?"
Yu Ye's voice was so loud that Su Daiyuan and the others who were meditating nearby also opened their eyes.
Sheng Ning tapped her fingers lightly on her knee. "Sandstorm."
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Daiyuan and his four companions appeared before her and surrounded her.
"Sandstorm? I didn't feel anything?" Lu Jingshen frowned.
“There are indeed distinguished guests arriving. Why hide in the shadows, fellow Daoist? Why not come out and make a move?” Su Daiyuan pursed his lips, his eyes darkened, and the temperature around him instantly dropped.
Even though Sheng Ning was protected by her senior brothers, she still managed to glimpse a few green figures slowly approaching from not far away through the gaps.
Taixu Sect?
The six men raised their eyebrows, but their expressions remained unchanged.
"Senior brothers, it's been a long time." Shi Yueyao stepped forward, the campfire flickering, casting a play of light and shadow on her features.
Behind her, Qin Chuan, Xi Zhen, and the other three held magical weapons, their lips tightly pressed together.
The visitor is not friendly.
Just as Sheng Ning was about to stand up, Yu Ye pressed down on her shoulder and made her sit back down on the tree stump.
Looking up and meeting his gaze, Sheng Ning saw him shake his head. With a flick of her finger, a small landmine landed in her palm.
"Oh, I didn't expect it to be a disciple of the Taixu Sect. I'm so sorry for not greeting you properly."
Yu Ye looked at Qin Chuan and the other six, but his gaze never fell on Shi Yueyao.
It was as if they didn't take her seriously at all.
Shi Yueyao was furious and nearly crushed her back teeth.
"You're going to attack us? Aren't you afraid of being kicked out?"
Fighting is forbidden among cultivators in the secret realm; if discovered by the Heavenly Dao, they will be kicked out.
At the same time, that sect's score will be reset to zero.
In secret realms, it's already an unwritten rule to take action secretly.
The Taixu Sect members are now coming over openly, their faces practically screaming "kill!"
Are they... determined to destroy the Invincible Sect at all costs?
