Sheng He has always had an excellent memory. She memorized the map after just one glance. After she handed the map to Mu Yao and Yun Qianshan, she quickly went to Tian Yu while the other disciples gathered together to look at the map.
"Master, I have established my foundation."
Tianyu raised his eyelids and glanced at Sheng He, saying indifferently: "Oh."
"I have also practiced the Qingyun Sword Technique to the seventh form."
"good."
“So I want to kill someone.”
"Kill him."
Tianyu was still leaning on the side of the boat, looking into the distance with a melancholy look on his face, not knowing what he was thinking about.
Sheng He also remained silent.
After a long while, Tian Yu seemed to finally react to what Sheng He had just said. He jumped up suddenly and looked at Zhao Yanran in the crowd.
Seeing that Zhao Yanran didn't notice this side, Tian Yu stealthily pulled Sheng He aside.
"You want to kill someone? The person you want to kill is not Zhao Yanran, right? Is there any conflict between you girls that can't be resolved properly? How can you shout and kill at every turn?"
"I know. It was Zhao Yanran who stole your Taixu soil at the auction last time. It's not a big deal. You can just tie her up and beat her up secretly when she's alone!"
Sheng He lowered his eyelashes and did not respond.
Tian Yu was anxious: "Beating me up won't work? If all else fails, I'll help you steal the Taixu soil back myself. Is that not okay?"
"Do we have to kill her? My dear little ancestor, I can't beat Senior Brother Xuan Xiao!"
Sheng He suddenly raised his head confidently: "Master, don't be afraid, I promise to do it secretly, as long as you give me one thing."
"What?"
Sheng He curled his lips and smiled, then took Tian Yu's storage bag and took out a bracelet carved from a black crystal stone.
"That's it, Master, don't worry. I have just learned a hidden weapon. No one in the sect knows about it. I will make sure that Zhao Yanran will be killed without a complete body!"
Tianyu looked around to make sure no one heard their conversation, then he patted Sheng He on the shoulder and said earnestly:
"I know that you two have never gotten along. You are a sensible person. You must have your reasons for killing Zhao Yanran regardless of the friendship between fellow disciples. Master will not ask."
"But!" Tianyu squatted down, hugged Sheng He and said tearfully, "You must be clean, I really can't beat Xuan Xiao."
Sheng He patted Tian Yu's back soothingly: "Master, don't worry. Go back and explain it to Master Uncle Jinglan. Master Uncle won't beat you all the time."
Tianyu cried even louder.
Two hours later, the flying boat slowly landed. Sheng He waved to Tian Yu, and got off the flying boat with Mu Yao and Yun Qianshan.
The Jingyue Secret Realm has not yet been opened, but many cultivators have already gathered around it. In addition to those from large and small sects, many independent cultivators have also come.
Before getting off the flying boat, Tian Yu specifically reminded them that the entrance to the Jingyue Secret Realm was special and only wide enough for two people to pass through side by side. Even if two people held hands and stepped into the entrance at the same time, they would be separated the moment they entered the secret realm.
This means that once you enter the secret realm, unless you are lucky enough to meet a fellow disciple, everyone will fight alone during the year that the secret realm is open.
Sheng He and the other two looked at each other, but didn't care much.
Mu Yao has the Zixuan Umbrella given by Sheng He, and no one below the Nascent Soul stage can hurt her.
Yun Qianshan is a music cultivator who is best at illusion. The cultivators who enter the secret realm are all at the foundation-building and golden elixir levels. Even if she cannot defeat them, she can escape in time.
Needless to say, Sheng He had been in seclusion for a year and had already practiced the seventh form of the Qingyun Sword Technique. She was just worried about not being able to find someone to practice with.
"Look, the secret realm is open!"
Someone shouted, and everyone looked up, only to see a small green vortex appear in the air.
In just a few breaths, the vortex grew bigger and bigger. No one dared to act rashly and just waited quietly.
It was not until an incense stick of time later, when the vortex was about five feet long and no longer expanded, that an anxious monk jumped into the vortex. Seeing that he did not suffer backlash, other monks also rushed to enter the secret realm.
Before entering the Jingyue Secret Realm, Sheng He turned around and clasped his fists towards Mu Yao and Yun Qianshan and said, "Senior Sister Mu, Senior Sister Yun, I still have things to do. I will wait for you at Yuehan Mountain in half a year."
"Okay, see you at Yuehan Mountain!"
The moment she entered the green vortex, the sound of whistling wind came from her ears. Sheng He felt dizzy and the huge gravity seemed to pull her into another world.
Sheng He slowly opened his eyes until the sound of wind in his ears died down.
There was a forest in front of her. It was very quiet. Apart from the chirping of insects and birds, there was not even a single wild animal. It seemed that she was the only monk here.
Sheng He unconsciously touched the black crystal stone bracelet on her wrist. There was a small storage space inside the bracelet, and she had already placed the hidden weapon in it.
"Let me see, where would you go first?"
Sheng He curled her lips, and without any hesitation, she took out the Aoshuang Sword and flew over the forest. Everywhere she looked were trees, except for the one in front of her.
There was a small swamp there, and a huge Teng snake was coiled up and taking a nap in the swamp.
There are a total of four endless forests like this on the map.
Sheng He was lucky, as the area under his feet happened to be a swamp forest.
After flying on the sword to the vicinity of the swamp, Sheng He took out the concealment beads and the dead branches of the green wood vine from the storage ring and tiptoed towards the green wood vine.
The green vine grew in the swamp, very close to the blue-eyed Teng Snake. When Sheng He looked at it up close, he discovered that this Teng Snake was much larger than what his master had described. The waist of the Teng Snake alone was taller than Sheng He when he stood on tiptoe.
Even with the protection of the concealing beads, Sheng He did not dare to relax at all. She held her breath and slowly approached the patch of green vine, then gently placed the thousand-year-old green vine branch in her hand next to the patch of green vine that had just grown.
Sheng He patted the little white flower hairpin on his head, and the three little radish heads immediately changed into their original forms and lay on Sheng He's head. They puffed up their bellies and blew hard at the dead branches of the green wood vine.
In an instant, the dead branches of the Aoki vine turned into ordinary Aoki vines, looking no different from the other Aoki vines around it.
Sheng He frowned and made a gesture to enlarge his brows. The three little kids shook their heads. Sheng He put his fingers together and turned them lightly. A white light flowed on his fingertips.
The three little rascals were horrified and quickly got up, puffed up their bellies again and blew towards the dead branches of the green wood vine.
This time, the green vine transformed from the dead branches of the green vine looked twice as big as the other green vines.
Sheng He nodded with satisfaction. This might seem a little strange, but she knew Zhao Yanran too well.
