Chapter 87 The spring is blocked! An elderly cultivator nearby was furious, "This is outrageous. If it weren't for the accident thirty years ago that caused our Nanzhou Xuanbing Sect to lose many of its core elites, we wouldn't have been mocked by the people of Zhongzhou every time we discussed the Dao on the Golden Platform." "Thirty years ago? What big thing happened in Nanzhou?" Several young monks quickly surrounded him and kept asking. The older monk showed indignation on his face, and briefly talked about the old things, scolding the evil cultivator. The other monks followed suit. Ruan Xing lowered his eyes. According to the normal progress of cultivators, a cultivator who had established his foundation thirty years ago would have just reached the late stage of foundation building if he had worked harder. However, what is missing from the sect is not only the group of late foundation building masters who died, but also the fact that there has not been a single genius joining the sect in the past thirty years. For example, Fu Qinghong, who had dinner with her yesterday, although he didn't know the situation of other inner disciples, he and his senior sister knew it. He was picked up by the master and brought back to the mountain when he was three years old. At that time, his senior sister was thirteen years old and had just started to draw Qi. He was twelve years old and started to draw Qi. Now he is seventeen and is in the late stage of foundation building. His senior sister is also in the late stage of foundation building. There hasn't been a direct disciple with such extraordinary qualifications in Nanzhou in the past thirty years. Ruan Xing looked at the two elders in the air. Even though she and Xie Huai showed such talent, the elders remained indifferent. Did they think that the two had ulterior motives, or did they themselves have selfish motives? But it's okay. She doesn't need a master. With the simulator and spirit stones, her cultivation speed is as fast as riding a rocket. It's too unreasonable. Having a master would be a hindrance. After watching for a while, it was finally Ruan Xing's turn.
The monk opposite saw that the expression on her face was inexplicably nervous and restrained. Ruan Xing took a closer look and saw that the monk was wearing shoes painted with tung oil, and he couldn't help laughing. Is it necessary to be so cautious? She is very weak. Ruan Xing casually made a hand gesture, "Five Directions, Water." A water dragon gushed out, and the cultivator on the opposite side hurriedly used a magic weapon to summon a gust of wind to blow away the water. A hazy mist filled the area around the two of them, and their clothes were all wet with the mist. The cultivator did not dare to be careless, and he extended his spiritual sense to confirm Ruan Xing's position and was about to launch an attack. At this time, another water dragon appeared in the air. The monk looked up and was about to dodge when the tip of the sword pressed against his waist. He was stunned for a moment. The water dragon in the air lost its power and fell on his head. "You care too much about that little magic. I will stop when it's enough and I won't hurt you." Ruan Xing said with a smile, but she was thinking in her heart that if he continued to resist, she would use the sword tassel to pierce his waist. The Five Elements Technique is just a small five-element technique that is inexpensive and of good quality in the Treasure Pavilion. It may have some lethality against the Qi training stage, but it is not very effective against the foundation-building stage. The monk said dejectedly, "I lost." In fact, there was no need for him to worry so much. He was only in the initial stage of foundation building and had no special skills to rely on. Ruan Xing would definitely not waste a thunder and fire talisman on him. However, compared with the injuries of other cultivators, being burned to charcoal was indeed too tragic, so he had to be afraid. After waiting for his name on the water curtain to jump to the second to last line, Ruan Xing jumped off the stage. By winning this first game, I have already stepped half a foot into the top 30, because the other 30 people who lost will need to go through a loser group competition to decide the ten people who will participate in the second round tomorrow. This is also the reason why Ruan Xing did not hurt him. It would be so inhumane to let him participate in the afternoon competition while injured. She is so kind. For tomorrow's competition, Ruan Xing only needs to win one game and lose one to securely enter the top 30. If he wins two games, he will need to play the third and fourth games to determine the top three. She asked herself if she had the confidence to win the first place breakthrough pill, and she would have to fight a tough battle after entering the secret realm, so it would be best not to waste too much energy in the competition. Ruan Xing thought that since there was no intensity given to her in today's competition, there would probably be no need for Xu Sixi to give her any arrangements tomorrow. She should be able to pass the test safely. She could go back tonight and prepare for the simulation. She had just sold a foundation-building pill and now had sufficient funds, so it was a good time for simulation. If she could make a fortune in the secret realm through simulation, she would simply admit defeat in the two games tomorrow and not go in and get involved with Xie Huai. She thought happily and had no intention of watching the rest of the competition. She hurried back to her residence to prepare for the simulation. [Simulating]
At the age of seven, you participated in the sect’s Golden Platform Forum and successfully ranked among the top thirty, gaining the qualification to enter the Golden Platform Secret Realm. After entering the secret realm, you immediately rode your flying sword westward. Two days later, you found a spiritual grass in a valley. However, the grass was guarded by monsters. You fought with the monsters for half a day and narrowly won after being seriously injured. You had to heal your wounds on the spot. On the third day, Xu Xi and his fellow apprentices found you, and you were dead. [End of simulation] Ruan Xing looked at the first line of words in surprise. She was seven years old? When? She didn't know what month the original owner was born in. No one mentioned this when she was in the mortal world. She probably thought that ordinary families didn't have so many requirements, and Ruan's father didn't care about the girl, so she just didn't care about her birthday. But...yesterday was Chinese New Year, so does the simulator measure age based on the date of the Chinese New Year each year? More useless bits of knowledge have been added. She shook her head and continued to read the few remaining lines before choosing a random item and getting a healing pill. It seems okay... A bottle of healing pills can be sold for fifteen spirit stones. There are six pills in a bottle, and one pill is equivalent to about spirit stones. She got back a quarter of the original copy, but unfortunately she didn't get the Cave Spirit Grass randomly. She really wanted to know what this thing looked like. Wang Zhi used this thing to deceive her in the Hanshan Secret Realm. After putting the healing pill into the porcelain bottle, Ruan Xing began to think about how to avoid Xu Sixi's disaster. Can I make use of the monster that is guarding the soul grass in the cave? Ruan Xing began to simulate the attempt. After a while, a bloody little finger appeared on his hand. Ruan Xing wanted to destroy it with some disgust, but suddenly stopped. The strength of that Foundation Establishment monster was slightly lower than hers, so it was like a piece of paper when dealing with Xu Sixi. It was at a disadvantage after just a few moves. She hid aside and took the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, which injured Xu Sixi. She cut off his little finger with a sword, which was rewarded to her by the simulator as a random item. She has Xu Sixi's flesh and blood. Although she doesn't know her birth date, is it possible for her to use the curse technique in the "Ghost Records of the Underworld"? The book does not say that those with high levels of cultivation are immune to this spell. It only says that the effect of the curse is determined by the cultivation level of the caster and the one who is cursed. Although Xu Sixi's cultivation is higher than hers, as long as she can have an impact on him and weaken his strength, it will not be a waste of effort. This is a heavenly level skill, would you like to give it a try? Ruan Xing opened the text simulation. [Simulating] At the age of seven, you participated in the sect’s Golden Platform Forum and successfully ranked among the top thirty, gaining the qualification to enter the Golden Platform Secret Realm. After entering the secret realm, you used the curse spell to curse Xu Xi, and then rode the flying sword towards the west. Two days later, you found a spiritual grass in a valley, but there were monsters guarding the spiritual grass, so you hid aside and waited patiently. On the third day, Xu Xi and his fellow apprentices came here and started fighting with the monster. Xu Xi didn't seem to be in good condition and he didn't participate in the battle. You found an opportunity and suddenly attacked Xu Xi. After you cut off half of Xu Xi's palm with a sword, he raised his magic weapon to resist. Others had already killed the monster and came to help, and you died. [Simulation ends] This time, Ruan Xing chose memory. After carefully observing the memory, Ruan Xing concluded that the curse was indeed effective. Xu Sixi's condition deteriorated a lot, and his dodging speed even slowed down a bit, which allowed Ruan Xing to change the amount of cutting off a finger to half a palm. Unfortunately, the monster was not very useful and died after just a few seconds. She had to change a monster. A monster in the late foundation-building stage might be enough. It would be even better if there was a monster in the golden elixir stage. However, the Jintai Secret Realm only allows cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage to enter. Could there be Jindan Stage monsters in there? Ruan Xing didn't know, but she could only try. This time, she didn't stay at the spirit grass in the cave, but continued to move west. Foundation-building cultivators do not need to eat, drink, or sleep. When they are tired, they just take elixirs. They almost never stop for a moment. For seven whole days, Ruan Xing did not encounter any suitable monsters in the late foundation-building stage or golden elixir stage, nor was he caught up by Xu Sixi.
But, we can't just run away like this, right? Then why come into the secret realm and waste points? As Ruan Xing continued to move forward, he began to collect items and materials worth more than ten spirit stones. During this time, he also encountered spiritual trees that contained spiritual energy. He cut down two of them and stuffed them into the storage bag. If the storage bag had been full of space, Ruan Xing would have simply wanted to put all the trees in the entire forest back. Although the value of this spiritual wood is not particularly high, it is abundant in quantity. After being split, the materials cut from one tree can be used to make hundreds of wooden talismans. The talismans made from the wood core will be even more effective. Some of the edges and corners can be cut off to make wooden boxes for storing spiritual herbs, which is also quite profitable. On the eighth day, Ruan Xing was flying in the sky when suddenly his spiritual power went out of control and both he and his flying sword fell down. Fortunately, after she built her foundation, her skin became thick and tough, so falling from a height of dozens of meters only caused her superficial injuries. She quickly looked around alertly. Was she suddenly attacked by someone or a monster? How could her spiritual power be out of control? She clenched her palms and felt the spiritual power flowing through her meridians. She felt as if two worlds were torn apart. It wasn't like they were attacked by anyone, it was more like... the space was unstable. This was very similar to the space-time turbulence she had encountered when the Hanshan Secret Realm collapsed before. You damn Xie Huai, you really are going to collapse wherever you go, right? The surrounding scenes appeared distorted in her eyes. Some images looked like three-dimensional images that were transformed into two-dimensional maps, but when she touched them, she felt the real touch. She blinked and it took her a long time to adapt. This is different from an illusion, but... there is a bug in the code of the secret space. I don’t know how Xie Huai did it. But this was not the question she wanted to explore now. She took out the sect's jade token and tried to come out of the secret realm, but found that the jade token had no response. She sighed and threw the jade token aside. After several chases, she already knew that Xu Sixi found her every time because of the sect's jade token on her body, but she still needed the jade token to leave the secret realm and could not lose it. Even if she could find a place to hide the jade token and Xu Sixi caught up with her and took it away, he wouldn't be able to do anything to her. Although she couldn't leave the secret realm, it didn't matter because this was a simulation. But her purpose is not just to gain some benefits in the secret realm. She negotiated with the other party. Since Xu Sixi wanted to kill her, she simulated it a few more times to find a way to make the dead person become Xu Sixi. Ruan Xing carefully raised his flying sword, and after confirming that his spiritual power was temporarily fine, he continued to fly westward. This secret realm seems boundless. If it were in reality, one could cross the entire Nanzhou in half a month. But after a while, Ruan Xing's jade card lit up again, and on it was a message from the team leader. The apparent leader of this trip to the Jintai Secret Realm was a cultivator from Zhongzhou, Fu Qinghong's senior sister Fu Yu. Both of them took their master's surname. Although the cultivators from South Province were the hosts, there were more people from Central Province, and there was no cultivator from South Province who was powerful and prestigious enough to convince the crowd, so he could only lose the title of leader. The leader's jade token can be used to contact sect disciples without adding friends. Fu Yu sent a group message, saying that space turbulence suddenly appeared in the secret realm, affecting the stability of the teleportation formation. Now the sect elders outside have temporarily maintained the teleportation formation, and asked all cultivators to hurry out during this time. Although Ruan Xing felt that something was wrong, there was no point in staying in the secret realm. There had been no new developments in the west direction for eight days. It would be better to go out and take a look at the situation and try a different direction in the next simulation. This time, the use of the jade token to leave the secret realm was successful. It’s just that the environment outside is a little unfamiliar. Strange, didn’t they enter the Jintai Secret Realm through the teleportation array in the sect’s back mountain?
The disciples who came out were all bewildered and looked around. Just when they were confused, one disciple said in shock: "Senior Brother!" Ruan Xing looked in the direction of the voice and saw the disciple holding a corpse on the ground, looking extremely sad. The blood on the corpse was very fresh and his eyes were wide open in fear, as if he had been dead for no more than a quarter of an hour. "Everyone is here." A hoarse voice suddenly reached everyone's ears. An old man in a gray robe stood there as if he had no sense of existence. Before he spoke, no one noticed that there was a outsider here who was not wearing a disciple's uniform! Ruan Xing looked at the other person in surprise. This grey-robed old man seems to be a demon cultivator... The old man chuckled twice and waved his hand lightly. Magic power surged and black gas swirled, gushing out from the palm of his hand. Ruan Xing lost consciousness before he even had time to escape. The simulation ends. After Ruan Xing selected the memory, he quickly turned to the end to check. It is true that the old man is a demon cultivator. Ruan Xing couldn't see through his cultivation level, but it was at least above the Golden Core level. Shit, such a powerful demon cultivator is actually blocking the resurrection point! Not cool at all. Ruan Xing cursed the other person inwardly, continued to look through his memories, and discovered something strange. The old man said, everyone is here. However, among those cultivators who came out, she identified them frame by frame through her memory, but did not see Fu Qinghong, Fu Yu, and Xie Huai. Why did they change places as soon as they left the secret realm? Was the message sent by Fu Yu really sent by her? If so, doesn't that mean she has also betrayed the sect?
