Zhou Shu walked alone in the secret realm, looking for Zhao Yueru.

He was not moving fast and was always alert to his surroundings.

This secret realm is full of fourth-level monsters. When I first came in, I met two of them in a short while. With Zhou Shu’s current cultivation level, it is difficult to deal with and you must be extremely careful.

But it doesn’t mean that you can only wait to die when you encounter a monster. There is a fourth-level magic weapon, rock shield in the Naxu Ring. As long as you input all your spiritual power, you can withstand the attack of the Jindan realm cultivator, and the fourth-level monster can also block it.

The spiritual power required to use fourth-level magic weapons is very large, and only Zhou Shu can use it among the three people. After Zhou Shu repaired the Qihai Sea, his spiritual power reserve was three times that of ordinary late-stage practitioners in the Foundation Establishment Realm, not to mention that he also has a second Qihai that is not weaker than the Condensation Realm, but even so, he can only use it once.

Taking advantage of this time, facing the fourth-level monster, it is also a bit of self-protection.

But flying is absolutely impossible, you can only walk on the ground.

Zhou Shu walked for two hours before he walked fifty miles.

"Strange, why didn't a monster see it?"

Zhou Shuwei was shocked. He was cautious along the way, but he seemed to have done useless work. Not only did he not see the monsters, but he didn't even notice a trace of the monsters' activities. Could it be that all the monsters here were killed by Zhao Yueru?

Is it really possible?

With some suspicion, Zhou Shu turned around and returned, and the return journey was much faster.

In the formation at the exit of the secret realm, Lu Qi was concentrating on practicing.

Yangmei closed her eyes tightly, as if she was practicing and seemed to be dazed.

Last time I used my temperament, but this time I didn't dare to say that I would go explore with Zhou Shu. I was only worried in my heart and my face was full of nervousness.

It was not until she felt Zhou Shu come back that she relaxed and fell with joy, "Senior Brother, have you found Elder Zhao?"

Zhou Shu shook his head, "No."

"No hurry. Senior brother, be careful and look for it slowly."

"Well, change direction tomorrow, this secret realm will be much bigger than I imagined."

Zhou Shu nodded slightly. He thought that the secret realm could be as big as a secret realm, at most it could be completed in dozens of miles, but now it seems that it is not at all. It is a completely small world, and it is similar to the outside world.

After more than ten days of continuous exploration, Zhou Shu had already penetrated the secret realm for 400 miles, but he was surprised that he still did not see any traces of the activities of monsters.

Some of them died, but they have been dead for at least a year. The demon pills and other things have been captured, and only the skins that are not needed.

For example, the corpse of the giant elephant in front of him was eight feet tall, like a mountain, but his head was gone. There was only a thin blue sword mark on his neck.

You can tell at a glance that it was Zhao Yueru's Blue Ning Sword. With just one sword, it completely cut its tough skin three feet thick and reaped its life.

"The original guess was true. All the monsters here were killed by Elder Zhao, but these things happened a year ago, but there was no trace left in this year. So where did Elder Zhao go in this year?"

Zhou Shu thought to himself, with joy and sorrow. "You will know that this secret realm is not even bigger than outside."

Zhou Shu used the Golden Feather Eagle to send messages to the two and walked forward all the way.

After walking through mountains and forests, I walked over hundreds of miles. There was a large open plain in front of me. There was a large lake in the plain, nearly ten miles in radius, with a blue water color and smoke from time to time.

Five miles away from the lake, Zhou Shu stopped with a cautious look.

The water waves on the lake were calm. Although there was nothing to see, the spiritual consciousness he released could clearly feel a huge and vast wave of spiritual energy. This wave rose and fell, like the breathing of a giant beast, and the waves surged during the swallowing and spit, and in an instant, it could drain all the spiritual energy within a large range.

This kind of fluctuation will never come from cultivators, but mostly from some kind of monster hidden in the lake.

"There are fifth-level monsters..."

A terrible thought suddenly came up.

The fifth-level monster is equivalent to a cultivator in the Nascent Soul Realm. The monsters at this stage may transform into shape and become the same as humans.

"There are actually fifth-level monsters in this secret realm. I'm afraid Elder Zhao is in danger... But it seems that this monster seems to be sleeping or dormant, otherwise he should have discovered me long ago."

Zhou Shu looked at the lake from afar, and his thoughts were hard to say. He did not escape immediately, but carefully controlled his spiritual sense and explored around the lake.

"Huh", after a while, he discovered it.

On the right side of the lake, there is a much smaller pool, only a few feet in a radius. There is a spherical object floating in the pool, and something is faintly hidden inside.

Zhou Shu observed for a while and walked towards the small pool.

He didn't worry too much about the monsters in the lake.

Monsters are different from cultivators. No matter how high the realm is, they even become human-shaped, and their essence is still beasts. The nature of sleep and eating will not disappear. They will be habitually carried out regardless of whether they need it or not.

Unless the monster transforms into a form and practices human skills, and then lives with humans for a long time, then they can broaden their wisdom and realize that they have become a higher life form through practice and are no longer beasts, so they can let go of their nature of sleep and eating.

The practitioner is the spirit of all things, so he naturally does not need this. Once he does not need to sleep and eat, he can give up immediately.

The larger the monster, the longer it sleeps. It is common for several years to sleep. And when you sleep, you will generally not wake up unless your life is threatened.

Walking to the edge of the pool, Zhou Shu looked down, and immediately stopped and almost exclaimed.

"Elder Zhao?"

In the pool, a ball of about meter in diameter is suspended in the water two or three meters deep.

The ball is like a big fish bubble, with a slightly pointed end, a round and bulging middle, translucent and blurry, but you can still see some of the situation inside. Zhao Yueru was sitting in the fish bubble with her eyes slightly closed, and her expression was awe-inspiring, as if she was practicing, and as if she was enduring some kind of pain.

She is obviously still alive.

Zhou Shu was a little happy.

"Could Elder Zhao be trapped by this monster and wrapped it with this fish bubble and cannot come out?"

Zhou Shu slowly dived into the water, swam closer to the fish bubbles, looked around and there was no special mechanism, so he used a heavy gold sword to stab the fish bubbles hard.

Bang.

The heavy gold sword bounced back directly.

Zhou Shu's brows tightened, his spiritual power increased a little, and he thought to himself, with my current cultivation level and this third-level mid-grade sword, can't he even pierce a fish bubble?

Bang.

It was obviously not pierced, and the heavy gold sword that bounced back was hitting the face.

Zhou Shu was slapped in the face, but he didn't feel the pain. Instead, he felt a little funny. "Even Elder Zhao's cultivation level is trapped inside. How could my heavy gold sword pierce it?"

I am eager to save people, but I forgot and missed it for a while.

Zhou Shu thought for a while, reached out to hold the fish bubbles and gently took them out of the water.

The water waves in the lake were still calm and there seemed to be no reaction. Zhou Shu didn't hesitate and ran out with great strides.

I ran for more than ten miles before I stopped.

The bumps kept coming, Zhao Yueru, who was in the fish bubble, also opened her eyes. She looked around and looked confused, not knowing what was going on.

No matter how Zhou Shu shouted and moved outside, she did not react at all.

"This fish bubble not only seems to have strong defense, but also block the spiritual consciousness. It is probably dark inside, and you can't see or hear anything."

Zhou Shu felt speechless.
