Five days later!
Silver Moon Secret Realm.
The towering trees reach straight into the sky.
Deep in the jungle, the array's light waves flowed and swirled.
A bonfire was burning just right, its crackling flames breaking the eerie silence of the forest.
A woman with exquisite features was sitting cross-legged.
A continuous stream of wood elemental power was drawn out from the great tree and then flowed into the woman's body without leaking a single drop.
As layer upon layer of elemental power was absorbed, Wei Qinghe slowly opened her eyes.
She looked at her palms and smiled with satisfaction.
The girl next to her, who was covered in dirt, was clutching a bright green fruit and wouldn't let go.
"Master, I couldn't find the honey. Look what I found instead!"
Seeing Wei Qinghe open her eyes, **Fenfen presented the bright green fruit to Wei Qinghe as if offering a treasure.
Wei Qinghe didn't recognize the fruit. Seeing that **Fenfen was all disheveled, but the fruit was very clean, it was clear that she cherished the fruit very much.
"Of course everything you find is good stuff."
Pinky was a little smug. "Master, this is a Wood Essence Fruit. It's a better fruit than the spiritual fruits in our space."
"The master has absorbed a lot of wood elemental power in this forest, so eating this fruit will have an even better effect."
Wei Qinghe took the wood fruit and gently wiped it. "Your treasure-hunting ability is truly extraordinary. You won't let go of anything even remotely related to treasures."
The Wood Element Fruit tasted sweet and fragrant, and indeed, extremely pure wood elemental power emanated throughout the body, with more wood elemental power flowing into the dantian and sea of consciousness.
"Hehe!" A soft, effeminate laugh suddenly rang out.
Even Wei Qinghe was unable to immediately detect that someone was nearby.
Then, a figure slowly emerged from the darkness shrouded by the trees.
The newcomer was handsome, but his face was pale and sickly.
With a half-smile on his face, he gave off an ambiguous, righteous yet wicked vibe.
Wei Qinghe's expression changed slightly; this person's intentions were not good.
Who are you?
Because this time, elite disciples from all the immortal sects of the Tianyuan Continent were invited, there were quite a few people present.
When she was outside, Wei Qinghe didn't pay much attention, so she didn't have any impression of the person in front of her.
The man's smile became even more pronounced, and his sinister and vicious nature erupted instantly.
"I've been entrusted with this task, and I'm here to take your life!"
His tone was flat, as if he were talking about something insignificant.
Wei Qinghe slowly stood up and gently straightened her Taoist robe.
"Oh, it seems that the price you paid to kill me must have been quite high."
The mocking smile on the man's lips was quite unpleasant to look at.
"Wei Qinghe, you should feel extremely honored to die by my hand."
Wei Qinghe couldn't help but sneer, "Should I thank you properly?"
She pulled the purple electric cloud pen from her hair and gently stroked it.
The man was amused by Wei Qinghe's reaction. He said, "There's no need for that. You have many valuable things on you, so I'm happy to make this trip. It's just that it won't be easy to sneak in under the nose of Daoist Fuyue."
He became agitated as he spoke, "Tell me, if I kill you right here, won't Daoist Fuyue be driven mad with rage?"
"Tell me, what would the person who sent you to kill me do if they knew you were dead!" Wei Qinghe suddenly gripped the Purple Flowing Cloud Brush tightly.
"You're not that old, but you've got quite the nerve!" The man was clearly angered by Wei Qinghe's words.
Suddenly, a smooth, jade-like calligraphy brush appeared in his hand.
The penholder is covered with many ancient and intricate runes.
"A spellcaster!"
Wei Qinghe paused slightly in the hand holding the Purple Flowing Cloud Brush, clearly not expecting the other party to be a talisman master.
She hesitated, wondering whether she should continue using her identity as a spellcaster to deal with the other party.
The man gave a sinister smile, then picked up a brush and instantly created runes.
"Little girl, prepare to die!"
The runes were as red as blood, and with the blessing of spiritual power, they surged and moved like a vortex, as if to pull people into an endless abyss.
Wei Qinghe glanced at it once and immediately slapped the rune out of her palm.
The two runes collided violently, producing a loud bang.
The tremor caused many leaves to fall from nearby trees.
Fallen leaves rained down from the sky, obscuring the view.
The strong airflow brought a cold wind that made the hems of their robes flutter and caused the fire in the distance to flicker.
Before the two could even land, they unleashed another rune.
The man frowned in surprise. "Aren't you a sword cultivator?"
He had initially thought Wei Qinghe was using a talisman, but just now, when the leaves blocked his view, he clearly saw that the hairpin in Wei Qinghe's hand had turned into a pen!
Similar to the one in his hand, Wei Qinghe held the pen and wrote and drew in the air.
Even if he couldn't see it all, he was certain that it was drawing a talisman.
The woman's clear voice stood out particularly well in the darkness and silence, "Yes, I am a sword cultivator!"
"I'm a sword cultivator, but that doesn't stop me from drawing talismans!"
"You actually cultivated multiple skills!" The man's eyes were filled with disbelief. He had thought that at this moment, the spellcaster could easily kill a mere sword cultivator who only knew how to fight.
Unexpectedly, the other party was not just a sword cultivator.
Based on the rune collision just now, he even suspected that the opponent's rune master level was not much lower than his own.
"Wei Qinghe, you're too good at hiding your true feelings."
