Chapter 110 What to do when you meet an enemy? After the real-life simulation ended, Ruan Xing's consciousness returned to reality. She was still lying in her little nest in the tree house. After sorting out the information she had obtained, Meng Hui did not tell her the Jindan period's cultivation method, and based on current speculation, Qin Taihe would not tell her either. Since Meng Hui said that the peak master would not hinder her cultivation and she just needed to wait patiently, Ruan Xing decided to believe her this time. Another thing is that she has a new enemy, Xu Sirui, and she has to find a way to deal with this. She suddenly became very curious. In those simulations that Elder Wen and the Sect Master did not intend to give to Zhuye, whose peak did she enter after entering the Xuanbing Sect? The peak master in the simulation treated her as a transparent person. He neither valued her nor suppressed her. He just let everything take its course. Could it be the Taoist Qingyuan that Meng Hui mentioned? Why did they take her away and then let her go without any care? But all of this is no longer known. After all, she has already entered Yaoguang Peak and cannot go back to the front to re-simulate. She could only move forward step by step and solve the obstacles in front of her one by one. She closed her eyes and turned on the reality simulation again.
After walking out of the range of Yaoguang Peak, Ruan Xing took out the mask magic weapon and concealed his cultivation level to the initial stage of foundation building. His face also became that of an ordinary and inconspicuous male cultivator. After the modification was completed, he went to the Equipment Refining Peak and found an empty place to sit. When others asked him about it, he replied that he had just entered the inner gate and was interested in learning equipment refining and came to observe. Although she looked unfamiliar, there were several thousand inner sect disciples and not everyone knew each other. Moreover, she said she had just entered the inner sect, which meant she must have just come in from the outer sect, so it was normal that no one knew her. After waiting for a while, they finally saw a familiar female cultivator in yellow, holding the magic sword she had just refined, and performing a set of sword techniques with great enthusiasm, and everyone cheered. Xu Sirui seemed to be in a good mood. He smiled and tilted his head towards the junior brother next to him, "Go on!" She threw the sword over. The junior brother took it, looked it over, and praised, "Sister, you are amazing. You have refined another mid-grade magic sword. These seven or eight days of hard work have paid off. Your success rate in refining mid-grade magic weapons should be 50% now, right?" "That's about right." Xu Sirui nodded reservedly, "I'll give it to you." The junior brother's face lit up immediately, "Thank you, senior sister!" Although he was also a weapon refiner and had no shortage of magic weapons, the magic sword refined by Xu Sirui was a mid-grade magic weapon of good quality. Even if he sold it, he could get seven or eight hundred spirit stones, which could be exchanged for enough materials for him to try to refine a few more mid-grade magic weapons. Xu Sirui stretched his stiff arms and legs, then walked past the others with his head held high and a bit of pride. It looked like they were about to leave the Weapon Refining Peak... Ruan Xinglue waited for a few minutes, then slowly stood up and followed. Xu Sirui's cultivation level is comparable to hers, and the range of his spiritual awareness is probably about the same as hers. Although Xu Sirui is inside the sect and should not be able to use his spiritual awareness to sweep around, it is still better to be cautious, so Ruan Xing still follows her at a distance. But the direction she was walking in looked familiar...it was the road to Yaoguang Peak. Is he going to cause trouble for himself? Ruan Xing didn't know, so he could only follow and see what would happen next. When they arrived at a place on Yaoguang Peak, Ruan Xing discovered that Xu Sirui suddenly became very secretive and moved around very cautiously as if he was afraid of being discovered. The distance was too far, and Ruan Xing didn't dare to use her spiritual sense randomly, for fear of alerting Xu Sirui. After thinking for half a second, she released the sword from the storage bag, let the sword lead her into a hidden state, and walked to the side of Xu Sirui. Following Xu Sirui's gaze, Ruan Xing was stunned for a moment. She saw Qintai He taking a bath. Of course, he was not bathing himself, but bathing the white wolf.
Beside the flowing stream, the white wolf lay on the ground, its wet hair sticking to its body, allowing the Qintai Crane to brush it. The loose hair that was brushed off its body was also picked up and put aside. This is the hair of a Jindan-stage monster. Even if it is naturally shed hair, it still falls into the category of yellow-grade material. Ruan Xing looked at Xu Sirui who was absorbed in thought beside her with complicated eyes. What is this sister doing here? Is he attracted to the white wolf or the white wolf's fur? This shouldn't be the case... Isn't the Xu family a cultivation family? They should be quite wealthy. Qin Taihe was almost done. After combing the white wolf's hair, he used a spell to dry the white wolf's hair. He also used the spell to destroy the loose hair that had been combed off, and then rode away on the white wolf. Xu Sirui also stood up contentedly and prepared to leave in a happy mood. Ruan Xing followed for a while. There were not too many disciples in Yaoguang Peak, and it was rare to meet three or two on the road. Xu Sirui was sneaking around, taking a small path that few people passed by. Seeing that there was no one around, Ruan Xing came out of hiding and called out to Xu Sirui. "Sister, please stay!" She shouted and ran towards Xu Sirui. Xu Sirui was startled, looked at Ruan Xing with vigilance, and asked defensively: "Are you following me?" "No, no!" Ruan Xing quickly shook his head to deny. Xu Sirui seemed to be slightly relieved, but he was not completely relieved yet, and then asked: "What did you see just now?" Ruan Xing was a little confused. "Just now? I saw Senior Sister passing by here, so I... I thought of coming over to say hello." As she spoke, a faint blush appeared on her ordinary face. When Xu Sirui saw this, he suddenly understood that this was a suitor of his, and he couldn't help feeling a little proud. She and Xu Sixi are half-siblings. Her mother gave birth to her when she was in the Foundation Establishment Stage and followed her father. As a result, she gained a lot of resources from Xu's father because of her status as a daughter. She rose all the way to the Golden Core Stage. However, no one expected that when she was thirteen years old and was about to enter the Dao, everyone discovered that she had no spiritual bones at all. Both parents have spiritual bones, but the child born does not have spiritual bones. This is a very small probability event, but she happened to encounter it. No one thought of this possibility, so this matter was not discovered until she was thirteen years old. Her and her mother's status plummeted in an instant, and her father also found other female cultivators with low cultivation to accompany him. Therefore, most people in Xuanbing Sect knew the relationship between her father and mother, but the two of them were not Taoist companions. Fortunately, her father did not give up on her completely. He found her a way to practice martial arts and the Luoqi Pill, which allowed her to miraculously possess spiritual bones. Unfortunately, it was very difficult to cultivate the spiritual bones obtained through the Luoqi Pill to the level of Golden Elixir. She had already completed her foundation but was afraid to form the golden elixir. She had no choice but to become a weapon refiner and get her father's attention through other means. In Xuanbing Sect, others flattered her and fawned on her only because her father was the head of the Law Enforcement Hall and because her surname was Xu and she was a member of the Xu family of the Immortal Cultivation Clan, but never because of her personally. Now seeing a junior brother who would blush when seeing her, Xu Sirui's attitude became surprisingly better, although she simply looked down on this male cultivator with low cultivation level and ordinary appearance. Xu Sirui lifted his hair and asked softly, "What do you want from me, Junior Brother?" The blush on Ruan Xing's face deepened, and she seemed a little embarrassed. She stammered, "I heard of Senior Sister's name when I was in the outer sect before, and I admired her very much... Today, I just entered the inner sect and met Senior Sister not long ago. Isn't this fate sent from heaven? That's why I called Senior Sister boldly. I hope Senior Sister doesn't blame me. By the way, I have a gift here that I have always wanted to give to Senior Sister. I hope Senior Sister won't despise it..." Ruan Xing spoke slowly, reaching his hand into his wide cuffs as if he wanted to take something out, which aroused Xu Sirui's curiosity, and his eyes followed the direction of Ruan Xing's hand. A cold light suddenly appeared. Ruan Xing pulled out a short sword with a broken edge from her sleeve and stabbed it towards Xu Sirui. Xu Sirui was startled and stepped back with her spiritual power. However, a several-inch-long light suddenly shot out from the tip of the sword, disrupting Xu Sirui's dodging rhythm. She could only barely shift her body and let the tip of the sword pierce her shoulder. The next second, blood soaked half of Xu Sirui's clothes. She had summoned her magic sword and swung it hard. Ruan Xing's sword broke into two pieces under her blow, one half in Ruan Xing's hand and the other half on Xu Sirui's shoulder. From childhood to adulthood, when had she ever suffered such an injury? The pain from her shoulder made her sweat. Xu Sirui pinched her fingers to stop the bleeding, and quickly swallowed a healing pill. She looked at Ruan Xing in shock and anger and said, "Who are you? What do you want to do!"
Now that she has distanced herself from Ruan Xing, Xu Sirui is not in a hurry to go to her father to complain. This man is only in the initial stage of foundation building, and he was able to hurt her because she was caught off guard. She wants to find out this man's purpose and then torture him to avenge herself! Ruan Xing just watched Xu Sirui complete a series of actions, secretly thinking it was a pity, it seemed that she couldn't kill him with one blow without attracting attention. She tilted her head leisurely and looked at Xu Sirui, smiling slightly, "Do you think I can answer this kind of question?" "What?" Xu Sirui felt it was absurd that the other party was so bold. Who was this person? How could he act like this in the Xuanbing Sect? What did he rely on? She was about to say something else when she suddenly looked down and saw a pale hand on her chest. The hand pierced her chest from behind. She had not yet reached the state of a spirit, so she could not escape with her soul. She did not have a golden elixir, so she could not choose to self-destruct. She could only watch as that hand crushed her heart, and she fell to the ground with her eyes open in death. Ruan Xing watched the scene calmly. Jian Lai nodded to her and disappeared into the air again. She was not in a hurry to end the simulation as the purpose of this simulation had not yet been achieved. The first was to find out Xu Sirui's background and see if there was any gap in strength between himself and her. The second reason was to see if the Xu family had left any secret means on her, and whether they could track down the real murderer who killed her out of thin air. The third thing is to know whether the mountain protection formation of the Zhongzhou Xuanbing Sect can detect the sword, and whether those big guys with high cultivation, such as the True Lord and the Taoist Lord, can see the traces of the hidden sword. Fourthly, she had simulated following Meng Hui to Tianyan Peak last time, from which she learned that the people of Tianyan Peak were extremely good at the art of deduction. She had to see if the people of Tianyan Peak could figure out that she was the real murderer behind the scenes. The second point and the fourth point overlap to some extent, but it is not a big problem. If the murderer that Xuanbing Sect is looking for is the two male cultivators, then it confirms the second point. If the murderer they are looking for is her, then it confirms the fourth point. The results haven't come out yet, and this simulation is bound to take a few more days. Ruan Xing squatted down, pulled out half of the sword from Xu Sirui's shoulder, and then left Yaoguang Peak without any reluctance. Her shapeshifting skill was only at the second level, so she could only transform into the appearance of an adult man for a little over an hour at most, and now the time was almost up. She let Jianlai take her to Xianyuan City quickly and found a deserted place. She removed her disguise and returned to her original appearance. There was some blood on Jianlai's sleeve, which Ruan Xing cleaned off with several dust-collecting techniques. She did not continue to put the sword into the storage bag, but let him wander around to find places where formations might be. As for herself, she started shopping leisurely. Since refining equipment is a very expensive thing, she has to start by checking out the local area. Without contribution points, she had no intention of looking for the sect's treasure house. After all, it was too troublesome to find someone to exchange spirit stones for contribution points. It would be more practical to use the simulator for free. There are more than one market town in Xianyuan City, and almost all of them are open 24 hours a day. It took her a day and a night to look through them all. She first found some shops that specialized in buying and selling elixirs and talisman materials, and then asked several shops about the prices of elixirs. Although the prices were 20% to 30% lower than the market price, they were still within an acceptable range. The earth fire she bought in Yunyang City had a service life of less than two years. It was now an old earth fire and there was a risk of misfiring from time to time. She also planned to buy another strand of earth fire of better quality for her use in alchemy. The spiritual bone aptitude that she originally obtained through the Luoqi Pill was of very poor quality. Even if she took the pill to the maximum extent for seventy or eighty years, it would be difficult to form a pill. What's more, she did not focus on cultivation every time she simulated. After her spiritual bones were transformed by the icy pool water of Hanshan Xuesui, her cultivation speed increased a lot, but it was still not as fast as that of a talented cultivator like Fu Qinghong who was born with a Taoist bone. Moreover, her spiritual power has become a little colder. If there is a chance in the future, she can choose to practice more techniques in this area. But now, Ruan Xing is considering the problem of his new magic sword. The fact that it was cut off by Xu Sirui's sword was not only because the middle-grade magic sword she used was one grade higher than Ruan Xing's, but also proved that this magic sword should indeed be retired. Since Meng Hui was going to refine it for her personally this time, she had to choose one that suits her. Cedar stone, lapis lazuli, cold moss jade and the like are all materials with cold and yin properties. She plans to collect a few more and see which one will be suitable for use when the time comes.
After confirming their quality, quantity, price, and the store they were located in, Ruan Xing decided to go back. Twenty hours have passed, and there is no movement from the sect's jade tablet. If someone died at Yaoguang Peak, all the disciples at Yaoguang Peak would have been summoned back no matter what. Could it be that the body has not been found until now? It shouldn't be the case. Although it was a small path that few people walked on, cultivators had keen senses and could definitely smell the blood from dozens of meters away. She didn't believe that no one would pass by that place within a hundred meters for a whole day and night. Moreover, Xu Sirui has been missing for a day and a night. Is there no one looking for her family and close fellow disciples? Ruan Xing lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then he recalled the sword in his mind link and planned to go back and take a look first. What would happen if no one else found Xu Sirui's body and she was the first to find it?
