Chapter 237 Entering the Secret Realm
Time is like an arrow, and more than half a year has passed quickly.
In the sea of sand, the flying sand is still everywhere.
Yangmei held a jade slip and looked at it with a focused look. Her face shone with a bright luster and shining brightly.
Ten days ago, she successfully built the foundation and used the Santiancao.
Lu Qi was the same, but it was not the only one. The sword light fell, and the sand flew like rain. In the past few months, he no longer refined elixirs and was sincere in the sword. Finally, he realized the sword intent of the rapid rain as he wished, which was different from before.
There are more differences between Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu had reached the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm and had completely recovered the Qi Sea, but the Qi veins were still incomplete, and only 30% of them were recovered.
Zhou Shu was more mature and calm than before, with a bright light in his eyes. Although he was still in the foundation-building realm, his strength was more than five times higher than before. Even a cultivator of the Condensing Realm had enough confidence to fight with him.
The resources, focused attitude, perseverance without fear of hardships, and extremely firm determination, their cultivation has all improved by leaps and bounds.
Zhou Shu glanced at the sand sea around him, "Wait a while, we will leave the sand sea to go to the secret realm."
Lu Qi stood with his sword in his arms, with a serious expression, "I understand, senior brother."
Since Zhou Shu told them about the Hokkien Sect and the Secret Realm, Lu Qi's whole body has changed a little, becoming much more steady, and his playfulness has stopped and his mind has become stronger.
Yangmei didn't say anything, but just smiled and nodded, gently put away the jade slip.
"Short attention, don't be so anxious."
Looking at the slightly thin Yangmei, Zhou Shu felt a little distressed in her eyes. These days, except for practicing and refining alchemy, Yangmei spent the rest of her time reading jade slips. She read almost all the jade slips about refining alchemy in Naxu Ring. Not only did she read them, but she remembered them all, and she memorized them all.
Yang Mei smiled sly, "It's okay, senior brother. There is a rare opportunity like this. I have a lot of things I want to learn, and I must seize the time. Hehe, senior brother, please wait and see in the future."
Zhou Shu shook her head. No wonder she was unable to enter the Sutra Pavilion before, and she had no choice but to see it. Now that she can see it, she seizes every opportunity to see it and refuses to waste it.
In fact, these jade slips have been recorded by Zhou Shu for a long time. In fact, all the information about the jade slips in Naxu Ring was recorded by Zhou Shu in the sea of consciousness. They can be taken out and used at any time when needed.
But such things cannot be told to others.
After packing up the formation, the three of them quickly ran into the sea of sand.
Zhou Shu had already calculated the exit of the Sand Sea Formation, and the three of them had enough cultivation. They walked and stopped and left the formation within a few days.
After experiencing a painful torture, Zhou Shu woke up first.
The secret realm is no different from before. The traces of Zhao Yueru and Cang Yuan fighting last time were still there. After Zhou Shu searched for a while, he set up a formation on the mountain peak at the exit.
The Five-stacked Taiyin Formation can form five overlapping defense barriers, which cannot be directly broken by even the Jindan realm practitioner. The defense is strong enough, but unfortunately the range is a little smaller. It can only protect about a half-mile area.
After setting up the Five-stacked Taiyin Formation and putting up the spirit stones, Zhou Shu added two layers of hidden aura formations outside. With this formation protection, it is not easy to be discovered by monsters. The safety is greatly enhanced.
It took about six hours to do these things without stopping.
Zhou Shu put the two into the formation and sat down safely to restore spiritual consciousness.
After a while, the two woke up one after another and looked around. They all had a lot of joy on their faces. After living in the gray sea of sand for half a year, they finally saw the green. How could they not be happy?
After calming for a while, Yang Mei looked at Zhou Shu in a narrow mind, "Senior Brother, what are we doing now?"
"You are practicing here. I'll go around to see if I can find Elder Zhao."
Zhou Shu's expression was slightly condensed and he said slowly, "If you can find it, we can follow Elder Zhao out. Even in the Yunjian Sect, safety will be guaranteed. Then there is a foundation for rebuilding the Hokkien Sect. This is best; if you can't find it, you can stay here to practice with peace of mind. I will go out and see what the situation is. Before leaving, I will leave the resources of the Hokkien Sect to you."
This idea was the result of his careful consideration.
The two of them were stunned, especially Yangmei, who almost shouted, "Why? Senior brother, you want to go out by yourself? No!"
Looking at Zhou Shu, You Jing said seriously, "Senior Brother, if you want to go out, we will go out together. No matter what happens, we will take responsibility together."
Zhou Shu didn't care, with a faint smile, "There is a lot of spiritual energy here, and the auxiliary elixirs in the Naxu Ring are enough for you to practice to the Golden Pill Realm. Wouldn't it be nice to spend more than ten years and decades when you reach the Golden Pill Realm before going out?"
Yang Mei nodded, thinking that Zhou Shu's words made sense, but she quickly asked, "It's great, what about senior brother, why not get together?"
Zhou Shu shook his head, "I'm not suitable to stay here."
“Why isn’t it suitable?”
Yang Mei asked repeatedly, while Lu Qi frowned, as if he had thought of something, and hesitated, "Senior Brother, is it because of the Qi and meridians..."
Zhou Shuqing sighed, "Yes, you actually know that I have reached the peak at the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. No matter how I continue to practice, I cannot condense my veins, so I have to go out."
It is also helpless. The current environment is good and there are enough resources. Zhou Shu also wants to cultivate to a very high level before going out, and then kill all directions and take revenge perfectly.
But it cannot be done. The damaged qi and meridians limit his cultivation. If he does not repair it intact, it is impossible to condense the meridians. Even the meridians cannot pass through it. It is meaningless to practice here.
"Senior brother, don't go out."
Yang Mei looked at Zhou Shu with a firm look, as if begging, "I know my senior brother's qi and meridians are damaged, but I have been working hard to learn to refine alchemy to help me. I have read so many jade slips, and there are many medicinal materials and treasures here. I can definitely refine good elixirs to help me repair my qi and meridians."
Zhou Shu suddenly realized when he heard the sound. It turned out that Yang Mei had such thoughts to learn alchemy so hard.
He looked at Yangmei and said softly, "I understand, but it is difficult to do it now. You should focus on cultivation. Besides, I don't have to go out. Even if I go out, I won't be able to come in again."
There are several elixirs that can be used to fully restore the qi and meridians, but those elixirs are by no means refined by the current conditions. There is no strange fire, no spiritual objects above the fifth level, and even a genius cannot be refined.
Zhou Shu just persuaded, and Yang Mei just didn't listen. Suddenly, her eyes shone with light, "Senior brother said he wouldn't leave me, you want to go out, I want to go out too..."
Zhou Shu nodded with a cautious expression, "Yangmei, don't you want to stay here to practice?"
Yang Mei looked at Zhou Shu, very stubborn, "Senior brother promised me that he cannot regret it. If you regret it, I will not listen to you. If you are not here, I will not stay."
"Okay, if you can't find Elder Zhao, you can go out with me, and Junior Brother Lu stay here."
Zhou Shu didn't say anything more and made a decision directly.
"Yeah! That's it!"
Yangmei immediately became happy and cheered, as if she could be with her senior brother, the underworld would be willing to go.
Chapter completed!
