Chapter 239 This is called darkness under the lamp
No one expected the sudden explosion, and the flying boats that had just left not far away stopped moving forward.
Thinking they were under enemy attack, there were many people in the world of cultivation who wanted to gain something for nothing, so they all flew out on their swords, only to see a flying boat torn into pieces not far away.
The flying boat of Xuexuan Sect was also nearby. Thanks to Xue Zun's timely shield technique to isolate the flames outside, their flying boat was not affected. They flew on their swords to rescue the disciples of Shengyin Sect who escaped from the flying boat and brought them to the flying boat of the nearby Yaozong for treatment.
As for Fairy Changle and several disciples who were closest to the explosion point, even though they had stronger physiques than ordinary people, their lives were in danger, and the people from the Medicine Sect were doing their best to rescue them.
"Xue Zun, what's going on?" The eldest sister stepped forward and asked in confusion, "Why did the flying boat of Shengyin Sect suddenly explode?"
"I was careless and caused trouble for everyone in the Holy Sound Sect."
Xue Zun sighed softly. No wonder he always felt something was wrong before. It was because he didn’t notice the black gunpowder made by Chu Youhuang.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard several loud noises coming from the secret realm. The secret realm that had been closed was reopened, and countless flying monsters rushed out of the secret realm.
You Huang stopped and looked back, then shook his head and sighed, "I originally wanted to teach those forces who always wanted to gain something without any effort a lesson, but I didn't expect that it would help the human world. The secret realm cannot be closed, and from now on the human world can also get some spiritual energy."
Looking at the circling birds and beasts, You Huang shuddered: "Let's go... You guys can take your time to clean up the mess."
The escaped birds and beasts have begun to attack the flying boat frantically. Everyone began to fight back, but everyone's cultivation was suppressed to the Qi Refining Stage. They could deal with first- and second-level monsters, but it was very difficult to deal with monsters above third level.
The Sword Sect's flying boat had already finished its flight. Seeing the chaos here, it immediately turned back with its disciples to help.
After killing a demon beast, he shouted to Snow Lord: "Out of the secret realm is the human world. Our cultivation is suppressed and we can't deal with the escaped demon beasts. Do you have a way to close the secret realm again?"
Xue Zun hesitated for a moment and said, "There is a way, but I'm afraid it will be impossible to deal with these escaped monsters above level three in a short period of time."
Wang Ci saw Xue Zun's embarrassment and said after some hesitation, "My wife has already gone after your daughter. Just coax her when she loses her temper. My girl is the type that doesn't care about anything when she loses her temper. Find someone to coax her and she'll change her mind."
My dear!
When Xue Zun suddenly heard this name, he immediately understood.
Xue Zun said coldly: "Chu Youhuang is not my daughter, she is a helper I invited, but ended up doing more harm than good."
"How can you say she's doing a disservice? Without her, the door can't be opened..." Wang Ci felt that compared to his own daughter, Youhuang was much better and couldn't help but defend her.
"Wait..." Wang Ci suddenly stopped and said, "You said the little girl was a hired helper, not your daughter."
"I practice the way of ruthlessness and never get close to women, so how can I have offspring?" Xue Zun explained the matter indifferently.
"We misunderstood." Wang Ci was stunned for a moment and said, "I will explain it to the disciples who are on this mission later and ask them not to spread the news."
Xue Zun looked at the situation in front of him, turned to Wang Ci and said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to hold out for that long. Chu Youhuang is cunning by nature, and Madam Wang may not be able to find her whereabouts. I left a mark of my soul on her, so it will be faster to find her."
"Xue Zun, she is still a child, just coax her."
Wang Ci was afraid that he would do the same thing as before, choking and threatening him, so it would be useless even if he brought the girl over by force.
------------------------------
You Huang no longer has a sword, and relies on his cultivation to ride the wind.
Before leaving the place where the flying boats gathered, he had already used his spiritual sense to explore the nearby sea area. It would take half a day to fly to the reef closest to the secret realm.
It was getting late now and they couldn't fly far over the sea at night. For safety reasons, Youhuang made another choice. He made a circle and returned to the secret place when no one was paying attention.
In special times, dangerous places are places of life.
Who would have thought that she didn't leave, but returned to the same place.
This is called darkness under the lamp.
For such a large secret realm, the things from Youhuang did not cause much damage to it. They only destroyed some spiritual plants and injured some monsters, but most of the land was intact.
Youhuang couldn't help but wonder if the secret realm could not be closed because he had taken too much away.
Thinking of the sea of consciousness where the sky and water were one, You Huang went to the Jade Forest without hesitation. Sure enough, the jade tree that he had dug out returned to its original position.
After finding the largest jade tree, Youhuang set up formations around it to conceal its aura, then sat cross-legged on the ground and meditated into his own sea of consciousness. It was still grey and hazy inside, and he could only vaguely see some outlines.
This time, Youhuang was determined to see her sea of consciousness clearly. Since she couldn't see it in the Xudan stage, she would form a pill in the secret realm.
He practiced his skills and began to absorb spiritual energy in large quantities.
The spiritual energy in the secret realm seemed to be attracted by something and rushed towards the jade forest frantically.
The branches of the jade tree, which were originally drooping downwards, suddenly lifted up gently, and the small white flowers on the branches bloomed simultaneously.
The petals were as white as snow, and the air was filled with a light and elegant fragrance, but Youhuang was unaware of it, and was still trying his best to absorb spiritual energy and condense his own Yuandan.
The Yuandan in the Xudan period is a gas ball formed by the gathering of true essence. What needs to be done now is to refine the gas ball into a solid entity. The true essence is compressed to a point through repeated refinement of spiritual power, but this is not a simple process.
It feels like wringing out the water from a chamois towel. You have to wring out all the water to get a dry chamois towel.
But it becomes more and more difficult as time goes by. Fortunately, Youhuang has experience in forming elixirs when cultivating magic. Although the two take different paths, some processes are very similar, and they can deal with any situation calmly.
As for whether he could still form the Dan in the human world, Youhuang was no longer in the mood to think about it.
If you are weak, you will be controlled by others and have to act according to their wishes. In your previous life, you would rather practice magic than bow your head. Today, you would rather give up your family and become stronger.
Outside the secret realm, Xue Zun's face changed drastically. He was unable to detect Chu Youhuang's location. With her level of cultivation, it was impossible for her to leave the Penglai Sea in a short period of time, unless someone helped her secretly. Could it be that someone from the Demon Realm took her away?
If Chu Youhuang turns to the demon world, it will definitely be a nightmare for the cultivation world.
Just as he was about to try again, a familiar figure descended from the sky and slowly came in front of him.
Seeing that he looked unhappy, Lu Shutong put away his joking mood and said with a smile: "Looking at your expression, it seems that you have encountered something difficult."
"I can't sense the mark left on Chu Youhuang. It seems that something is hiding her breath." Xue Zun stared at the secret realm that could not be closed and the increasing number of flying monsters in the sky above the secret realm and said, "But only she can solve the current situation."
Hearing Chu Youhuang's name, Lu Shutong was startled for a moment and said, "It turns out to be Chu Youhuang. I was wondering where your daughter came from and why you came here specially to see her."
"It's just a misunderstanding."
Xue Zun replied coldly that the priority now was to find the little girl.
