Snowflakes shattered the ice crystals, turning into tiny ice fragments that fell to the ground with a series of sharp, cracking sounds.
"Girl, how do you manage to use this demon realm staff?"
“My second uncle did the modifications!” Ji Jiuying explained.
Yu Bugui nodded in understanding. Feng Che was indeed a rare talent in weapon crafting.
Judging from the spiritual power the girl used in her fight with him, her cultivation level had probably reached the Spirit Saint level. Yu Bugui was secretly shocked. In all his years of life, this was the first time he had encountered a genius with such a fast cultivation speed.
Yu Bugui raised the staff in his hand, which emitted a golden light. Strange runes and totems were engraved in the light. The intense flash of light suddenly grew larger and transformed into a golden bell shield that enveloped Ji Jiuying.
"Girl, if you can break this golden bell shield within a quarter of an hour, I will give you this once-in-a-millennium Sacred Heart Stone. If you can't break it within a quarter of an hour, you must promise to brew me the Cloud Mist Drunken Immortal Wine."
Ji Jiuying stared wide-eyed at the blue bead in Yu Bugui's hand in disbelief, a look of longing flashing in her eyes. She couldn't hear what he was going to say next and hurriedly nodded in agreement.
She overheard the conversation between Xie Huo and the others in the space when Xie Huo deactivated the Sunbow last time. As long as Xiao Huang'er absorbs the Sacred Heart Stone, not only will her strength increase, but she will also be able to transform into human form. In that case, she can openly bring Xiao Huang'er out.
How come this old man has so many treasures? It seems that becoming his disciple is definitely worthwhile. I didn't expect him to have the Sacred Heart Stone. I wonder if he has the Mystic Ice Flower.
"Old man, do you know about the Mystic Ice Flower?"
"I know!"
Ji Jiuying was overjoyed and looked at Yu Bugui with expectant eyes, "Do you have any on you, sir?"
Yu Bugui raised an eyebrow; the anticipation in her eyes didn't escape his notice. But what did she need the Xuanbing Flower for? That thing was hard to find. "I don't have it!"
The two words were like a bucket of water poured over Ji Jiuying, instantly deflated, and she said disappointedly.
"All right!"
"Girl, hurry up and break this golden bell shield, a quarter of an hour will pass very quickly," Yu Bugui reminded her.
Ji Jiuying then came to her senses and focused intently on observing the area around the Golden Bell Shield, while Yu Bugui sat on a tree, drinking a little wine.
In Ji Jiuying's room, the two people, one in red and one in black, stared at each other. They both snorted coldly and looked in different directions.
Hei Xiangling: Didn't that girl say she was going out for a while? Why hasn't she come back yet! I can't leave here to wander around somewhere else, and this annoying Qilin is still here watching her, as if he's afraid she'll run away!
Fire Qilin: Master is so unfair! That woman clearly told him to come and watch over that dark-skinned Kunpeng, but he actually left him here to monitor that dark-skinned Kunpeng! He went off to have some fun on his own!
Within the forbidden area of Star Academy.
Gong Mingyue looked at the barrier in front of him, a slight smile playing on his lips. He gathered his spiritual energy into the ghost-patterned ring on his hand, slowly raised his hand, and gently touched the ring to the barrier, which then disappeared.
At the same time, Yu Bugui, who was in the tree, suddenly opened his eyes. Someone had broken the barrier of the forbidden area!
"Girl, you break the formation first, the old man will come later!"
Before Ji Jiuying could even reply, he vanished from the spot.
"Who dares to trespass on the forbidden grounds of Star Academy!" Yu Bugui appeared out of nowhere, looking at the unfathomable figure behind him, and said coldly.
"It's been a long time, Venerable Guixu!"
A deep, magnetic voice sounded, and Gong Mingyue turned around. His deep eyes carried an unnoticed coldness, his slightly upturned thin lips revealed a sharp edge, and his whole body exuded an unapproachable aura.
Yu Bugui felt a jolt in his heart. Looking at the handsome and beautiful face in front of him, his eyes narrowed slightly. It was him!
Since returning from the East China Sea, he had been recalling the man's appearance, identity, and voice, until a terrifying name appeared in his mind.
The mysterious Netherworld God of the Nine Heavens Divine Palace!
Then I remembered what he said in the East China Sea: "I am her man!"
Unexpectedly, this mysterious fiend was subdued by his obedient disciple. You should know that in the Heavenly Domain Continent, even a three-year-old child would be so frightened by the name of this fiend that he would cry and look for his mother. It is unknown whether it is good or bad for the disciple to be with him.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Gong Mingyue continued, "The God of Guixu disappeared from the Heavenly Domain Continent for hundreds of years. Could it be to guard the guy being suppressed down there?"
Hearing this, Yu Bugui's expression flickered slightly. He must know something, so there was no need to hide anything. "Yes!"
"I advise you not to reinforce the seal any further. You should know that while you are reinforcing the seal, its cultivation is also increasing," Gong Mingyue sneered.
Yu Bugui lowered his eyes. He knew all this, but if he didn't reinforce the seal regularly, the thing underground would have broken through it long ago! He absolutely couldn't let that harmful thing come out.
If this thing comes out, it's only a matter of time before the demon race appears in the world. At that time, both the Cangming Continent and the Tianyu Continent will be plunged into chaos and suffering, with unimaginable consequences.
"It's only a matter of time before it comes out. Do you think those demons don't know it's sealed here? The demons and monsters made preparations long ago when the laws of heaven and earth changed!" Gong Mingyue looked at him with a half-smile.
Yu Bugui immediately thought of Qingling and that ancient demonic zither! Could it be...?
But Qingling and Ji Jiuying's relationship is extraordinary. Did the Netherworld God come here just to tell him this, and want to use him to get rid of Qingling?
But the matter of the demon race was extraordinary, and he had no choice but to get involved, putting him in a dilemma.
