With Xue Ling around, getting out of the narrow passage was much easier than getting in. Xue Ling opened her little mouth and exhaled a breath of icy cold air, instantly freezing the entire river surface.
Lu Li, carrying millet and accompanied by two spirits, leisurely and freely flew low over the One Line Sky, stepping on his natal sword.
During this time, Shushu would occasionally tug at Luli's clothes and peek out with his little head to look at the ice. He could still see the river water churning and roaring beneath the thick ice.
However, the ice was too thick, and no matter how they tried to break through it, they couldn't. In fact, they would get frozen by the snow spirits because of the noise they made.
With Xue Ling's intervention, the river water, which had been bullying the weak and fearing the strong, immediately stopped flowing. It only dared to flow silently under the ice and did not dare to make any further movements, which amazed Shu Shu.
The group easily made their way out of the narrow passage. The moment they were completely out, Xue Ling withdrew her cold aura, the ice disappeared, and the river became lively again.
Looking at the seemingly more active Netherwater than before, Shushu had a strange feeling that the Netherwater was bidding them farewell.
Yes, this river is no ordinary water; it is Netherworld Water, which feeds exclusively on spiritual energy, is indestructible, and extremely corrosive.
Legend has it that it is a powerful being who has achieved the fusion of spiritual energy. If one is accidentally enveloped by it, one will only suffer the fate of having one's spiritual energy completely drained and dying.
This Netherworld Water is practically a super-advanced version of Corpse-Dissolving Water. It's an essential item for robbery, looting, and destroying evidence—it's a real treasure.
Thinking of this, Shushu's eyes lit up, and he suggested to Lu Li, "Senior brother, why don't we also collect some Netherworld Water?" Since we've come across such good stuff, we can't let it slip by, otherwise it would be such a waste.
Lu Li naturally knew that this was Netherworld Water, and he had intended to get some. Seeing Shushu looking at him expectantly, he didn't tease her and simply agreed, "Okay, I'll pretend."
With a crisp and decisive answer, he then took out two specially made jade bottles and handed them to Little Fire Spirit and Snow Spirit respectively, asking the two spirits to help with the work.
There was no other way; given his current special circumstances, he couldn't deal with the Netherworld Water himself, so he had to rely on the two spirits that could handle it.
After all, whether it's Snow Spirit, Fire Spirit, or Netherworld Water, they are all spiritual treasures of heaven and earth. And spiritual treasures of heaven and earth are ranked. Unfortunately, Netherworld Water is ranked after Snow Spirit and Phoenix Fire Spirit.
Therefore, the Netherworld Water, which was extremely arrogant in front of others, could only obediently call itself the younger brother in front of the two spirits, let alone devour them.
So the two spirits, entrusted with this important task, could only sigh and carry away a jade bottle filled with water, like little adults.
At first, the Netherworld Water in the river refused to enter the jade bottle.
It was only after Xue Ling used an ice spell and Xiao Huo Ling used a fire spell to demonstrate how to destroy evidence that the Netherworld Water in the river finally obeyed.
No one knows how they discussed it, but the river water boiled for a moment, and then the Netherworld Water began to automatically enter the jade bottle. The two spirits only needed to hold the bottle tightly.
This process of filling the bottles took half a day, and by the time both jade bottles were full, half of the Netherworld Water in the river had been depleted.
Lu Li also took back two jade bottles and casually gave one to Shushu.
As for whether Shushu should give away the Netherworld Water, that's up to Shushu. In any case, Shushu already has quite a few similar small jade bottles that she prepared for her.
The senior students who successfully profited from the freebies left Yixiantian satisfied.
Only after their figures disappeared from sight and their presence could no longer be felt did the Netherworld Water in the river revive from its half-dead state.
Seeing that he was missing half of his body, Youmingshui was filled with rage and slammed his fists against the stone walls on both sides to vent his anger.
After Wen Jianxi searched the snowy plains for several days without finding her enemy, she realized that he might have already left. When she chased after him, she encountered the enraged Youming Shui.
Without the help of the spirit, she was unable to pass through the narrow passage in a short time and was thus trapped.
The fellow disciples who left the canyon have long since returned to their original appearances and have communicated with everyone else, informing them that they have obtained the items and that everyone can seek their own opportunities.
Then, Lu Li began taking Shushu to train. Shushu was either fighting or on his way to fight every day.
There are no restrictions on the types of opponents, including various spirit beasts and spirit plants, some of which are of equal strength, while others are stronger than the millet.
Every time Shushu fights, Lu Li would hide and stand guard on the side. He would never make a move unless Shushu was in mortal danger, which was also Shushu's request.
Only in this way can she truly improve her combat effectiveness.
As a result, after each battle, Shushu would either be lame or have a swollen face; bruises and swelling were commonplace for him.
Once, he encountered a red-flowered cat in the early stage of the Golden Core realm. Due to the suppression of its cultivation and nature, Shushu was beaten extremely badly by the cat. His whole body was covered with marks left by the cat's claws. It was a true battle to the death.
Of course, there is no doubt that Little Potato won this battle. She finally managed to kill her opponent by relying on the array plate talismans and the replenishment of pills.
The moment her opponent breathed her last, Shushu also collapsed, which broke Lu Li's heart. He recklessly fed her all sorts of high-grade pills.
In the short time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he transformed the yam from a battered and bruised yam into a lively yam without a single scratch.
Perhaps he overdid it this time, because after recovering from his injuries, Shushu found that he was showing signs of forming a golden core.
Forming the Core is a major event. As soon as Shushu finished speaking with Lu Li, she entered a state of cultivation before even waiting for his response.
Fortunately, Lu Li was very reliable. Upon learning that Shushu was about to form her core, he immediately set up multiple protective arrays, including spirit-gathering arrays and concealment arrays, around her. He then stood guard beside her to protect her.
Soon, the spiritual energy of this place, as if attracted by something, surged towards this direction.
Such a strange phenomenon naturally attracted the attention of the surrounding cultivators, who all headed towards this place.
Among those who came, some wanted to gather information, while others had other intentions. However, after seeing that the person guarding them was Lu Li, none of them dared to make any rash moves.
There was no other way; Lu Li was the number one among the younger generation, and they dared not confront him head-on. Moreover, many disciples from the Liuyue Sect had also arrived, and they had all consciously stood beside Lu Li.
Even so, these people did not leave; they remained around, wanting to see what was inside.
So, when the glutinous rice successfully formed its core and awoke, it found itself surrounded by a large crowd.
Of course, because this is a secret realm, her Core Formation Tribulation is temporarily suspended; she will have to leave the secret realm first.
However, with Little Heavenly Dao backing her up, Shushu isn't afraid of the lightning tribulation! She's a rat with powerful backers and influential figures above her!
