Now he no longer prays that Jiu'er will definitely land on the Heavenly Domain Continent; he only prays that she lives, otherwise he will blame himself for the rest of his life...
"Second Brother, Jiu'er is a lucky person, she might have landed somewhere else. Such things have happened before, don't think the worst." Feng Wu comforted him, comforting Feng Che while also comforting himself. In fact, he couldn't say for sure either, the chances were too slim, he didn't dare to think about it.
"If Jiu'er landed somewhere else, why didn't she use the jade pendant to contact us...?" Feng Che hesitated, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
Feng Wu also lowered his eyes, and the two of them fell silent.
"Xiao Wu, have you heard? A mysterious secret realm has appeared in Julong Lake in Longyuan Forest."
"It is said that the secret realm leads to the dragon ruins beneath Julong Lake, and even the White Spirit God Venerable was drawn there."
"I just heard from the people of Yaochi Palace that a purple lightning bolt appeared in the Dragon Abyss Forest not long ago. There must really be some treasure there. However, people of our strength would only be cannon fodder if we went there."
The words had barely left his mouth when a strong gust of wind swept by, and the man who had spoken was instantly grabbed by the collar by Feng Che, who had suddenly appeared. "What did you just say?"
The man stared in horror at the man so close to him. "Sir, sir, what did I just say?"
A chilling aura emanated from Feng Che, causing the man to shiver involuntarily. "Your Excellency, spare my life! Your Excellency, spare my life! Whatever you want to know, I...I...I'll tell you everything! I...I just said there's a secret realm in the Dragon Abyss Forest..."
"It's about purple lightning!"
Feng Che said coldly, and at this moment Feng Wu also came to their side.
"I...I don't really know anything about purple lightning. I only heard it from the people of Yaochi Palace on the way here..." the man said in a panic. "The people of Yaochi Palace said that after several bolts of lightning flashed in the sky, a purple bolt of lightning suddenly appeared. So they guessed that some treasure had appeared in the Dragon Abyss Forest. Hero, that's all I know. I don't know anything else."
As the man spoke, he suddenly remembered something and quickly said, "Great hero, many people have seen this purple lightning. You only need to go to Dragon Abyss Forest to inquire and you will know..."
Jiu'er disappeared, and after several flashes of lightning, a purple bolt of lightning suddenly appeared. Why was it such a coincidence? Only then did Feng Che release the man, who was freed and hurriedly fled the place, fearing that Feng Che would change his mind.
"Second Brother, do you suspect that the purple lightning is related to Jiu'er?" Feng Wu asked suspiciously.
"When Jiu'er ascended, it attracted the purple aura. It's normal for the opening of the Dragon Abyss Forest Secret Realm to attract heavenly lightning, but purple heavenly lightning is a bit abnormal, and it just so happens to be the time when Jiu'er went missing." Feng Che couldn't be sure, but he wouldn't let go of any possibility as long as there was one.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go to Dragon Abyss Forest now."
Upon hearing this, Fengwu hurriedly said, "Jiu'er did not land at the fixed altar, so there must have been an accident during her ascension. If she were alright, why wouldn't she contact her second brother and him? There is only one possibility: she must be unconscious at this moment."
In such a dangerous place as the Dragon Abyss Forest, if he lost consciousness... he dared not imagine the consequences.
The two quickly arrived at Dragon Abyss Forest. After inquiring with some people, they learned everything about the purple lightning. Hearing that the purple lightning did not fall at Gathering Dragon Lake, the two were even more certain of their thoughts.
Following the directions given by those people, they soon arrived at the place where Ji Jiuying had landed.
But all they saw were a large, messy crater and scattered footprints. Their hearts sank, and a bad feeling rose in their minds.
“It might really be Jiu’er…” Feng Che said worriedly.
"Second Brother, could it be that someone rescued Jiu'er?" Fengwu went to the pit to take a look.
At this moment, the sharp-eyed Fengwu noticed something in the pit. He squinted, jumped down, and used his hands to clear away the soil.
Feng Che looked at Feng Wu, who had his back to him, with a puzzled expression: "Fifth brother, what's wrong?"
Fengwu picked up the jade pendant that had broken into two pieces from the ground, and was overjoyed. He quickly flew up and said, "Second Brother, it really is Jiu'er! Look, this is Lan'er's jade pendant!"
Upon hearing this, Feng Che excitedly stepped forward and took the jade pendant, which had been broken into two pieces, his hands trembling slightly: "It really is!"
No wonder Jiu'er didn't use the jade pendant to contact them; it turned out the jade pendant was broken!
But what about Jiu'er? Was she rescued, or...?
"Fifth Brother, I remember you told Jiu'er your address, Peach Blossom Village, before. Maybe she'll go there to look for you. Go back and wait, and while you're at it, find some people you trust to come and search in Dragon Abyss Forest," Feng Che said solemnly.
Fengwu nodded. The jade pendant was broken, and Jiu'er was new to the Heavenly Realm and unfamiliar with the place, so there was a high chance she would go to him.
"Second brother, what about you?"
“I’ll continue searching in the Dragon Abyss Forest. Given Jiu’er’s personality, if she wakes up and knows about the secret realm, she might go there too. I’ll try my luck; maybe I’ll run into her,” Feng Che said.
Soon, the two split up, each carrying out their mission. Meanwhile, Ji Jiuying had already recovered and was heading to the secret realm with Hei Xiangling.
"You brat, you really have no fear of death. With this little strength, you still want to venture into that secret realm!" Hei Xiangling said.
"But Sister Xiangling is still here!"
Ji Jiuying smiled. Before she ascended, she already had a lot of spiritual energy suppressed in her body. After coming to the Heavenly Domain, she took the Divine Essence Pill and cultivated in the space, converting all the spiritual energy in her body into spiritual power. Her strength has now increased from the Qi Condensation stage to the mid-Golden Core stage. Although she is still a newbie in this continent, she has a trump card to protect her life, so she is really not afraid.
Most importantly, she needs to improve her strength quickly, otherwise it will be difficult to gain a foothold on this continent. Although the secret realm has countless dangers, it also has adventures and opportunities. She can improve her strength and find cultivation opportunities. How could she let go of such a good opportunity?
Upon hearing this, Hei Xiangling glanced at Ji Jiuying out of the corner of her eye and said, "So you're just taking advantage of my presence!"
He spoke with feigned disdain, but inwardly he was overjoyed. "You brat, you should be secretly happy to have my protection."
"It's all because Sister Xiangling is so amazing."
Ji Jiuying smiled and glanced at Hei Xiangling, who was more than half a head taller than her.
"That's right, don't you even know who this sacred beast is?"
Everyone wants to be praised for their abilities, and Hei Xiangling is no exception.
Along the way, level eight spirit beasts that ran around all around would detour around Hei Xiangling, and the journey was smooth and unobstructed. Ji Jiuying couldn't help but sigh, "This Tianyu Continent is really different. Level eight and level nine spirit beasts can be seen everywhere."
“I didn’t descend from the altar, so my second uncle will definitely be worried. But with his intelligence, he must have guessed that I would come to the secret realm,” Ji Jiuying said quietly. After recovering, the first thing she wanted to do was to contact her second uncle, but she couldn’t find the jade pendant.
"Hopefully I'll run into Little White in the secret realm too..."
