118: Chapter 118 Heading to the Azure Sky Secret Realm
The next day, a ray of early morning sunlight shone directly into the courtyard next to the small pavilion.
"Knock, knock, knock—"
"Senior Brother, wake up!"
At the entrance of the courtyard, Little Moon was frowning slightly, tapping the small wooden door in front of her with her little hand.
"Hm? That's not right. He should be here."
Little Moon pushed hard and walked inside. She searched several rooms but found that Ye Xuan was not there.
If Little Moon knew that her Pretty Boy Senior Brother was being forcibly kept in Lin Qingzhu's boudoir, she would surely be overcome with jealousy.
"Hmph, we agreed he would take me to Cangjian Peak, and now he still hasn't returned."
Little Moon immediately realized the severity of the situation. Lin Qingzhu was the disciple of her Holy Master sister, Holy Lord Xu Yan. There was only one possibility: Senior Brother must still be with her. That bad niece Lin Qingzhu must be up to no good again; otherwise, Senior Brother wouldn't have stayed away all night.
Thinking of this, Little Moon grew anxious. She immediately used spirit stones to activate the defensive Mystic Power artifact on her body and rushed toward the Immortal Peak where her Holy Master sister resided.
Lin Qingzhu's cave dwelling was located less than a hundred meters from Holy Masters Immortal Peak.
"Right, Qingzhu, do you know about the Cangqiong Secret Realm?" Ye Xuan suddenly remembered that he still had a treasure map for the azure dragon undying herb. If he could obtain this undying herb, that would be for the best.
After pondering for a moment, Lin Qingzhu explained, "The Cangqiong Secret Realm exists within an ancient battlefield. The Elders Hall holds the spatial formation required to travel there."
"Over the years, a portion of disciples have been sent to the Cangqiong Secret Realm. Although it is very dangerous, the opportunities inside are also abundant. The last time I went, I obtained a Nine Profound Spirit Flower and a Tianxuan Heart left behind by a Heaven Profound Realm expert when they passed away."
"However, I was unable to obtain the Glazed Heart that I wanted."
"Oh? A Glazed Heart? Is it for your Ice Heart Glazed Physique?"
Ye Xuan reacted without hesitation. He knew that this rare, ancient physique required the appropriate divine medicine to reach its full potential.
"Yes. Master once told me that to quickly cultivate the Ice Heart Glazed Physique to perfection, one must have a Glazed Heart as the main ingredient to refine an Ice Profound Glazed Pill. After consuming and refining it, one can achieve perfection."
Lin Qingzhu lay in Ye Xuan's arms and explained slowly, "Only in this way, even after losing my virginity in the future, the remaining Nine Profound Exquisite Physique will no longer be a burden. I will be able to cultivate it to perfection bit by bit, without it affecting my cultivation."
"A Glazed Heart? No problem. If the Cangqiong Secret Realm opens this time, I will definitely find a Glazed Heart inside for you."
Ye Xuan's solemn promise made Lin Qingzhu even happier. "Really? Junior Martial Uncle Ye Xuan, Qingzhu loves you so much."
"I just don't know if you will go to the Cangqiong Secret Realm with me this time?"
"Of course. If Junior Martial Uncle Ye Xuan goes, Qingzhu will certainly go too."
The opportunities within the Cangqiong Secret Realm were quite significant. The first was the light profound power seed. If he obtained it, Ye Xuan might have a chance to condense the Evil God Physique.
The second was the azure dragon undying herb inside the Cangqiong Secret Realm.
The third was the supreme Mystic Power artifact—the nine heavens god-slaying spear. He would need to wait for Master Shen Xi to return before he could retrieve it; with Ye Xuan's current strength, he could not descend to the depths of the Mystic Ice Purgatory.
Moreover, the light profound power seed seemed to have some connection to Master Shen Xi, so Ye Xuan naturally did not want to miss this opportunity.
"Bang—" The door was kicked open, and a chilling voice followed.
"Hmph, I knew it. Senior Brother has been here with you the whole time."
Little Moon pouted her plain little face, and a wave of jealousy mixed with anger swept through the entire boudoir.
She had originally wanted to wait for Ye Xuan and Lin Qingzhu to come out, but who knew they would keep talking without any intention of leaving, and were instead flirting with each other.
"Lin Qingzhu, hurry up and let go of my Senior Brother!"
That was why Little Moon couldn't help herself; she kicked the door open, stormed in, walked right between the two, and pulled Ye Xuan out.
"Hehehe, Junior Martial Uncle Little Moon, we have already done everything we were supposed to do."
Lin Qingzhu said this deliberately. She did not stop Little Moon from pulling Ye Xuan away; instead, her expression was very charming.
"Hmph! Bad woman!"
Little Moon was speechless and felt incredibly aggrieved. Senior Brother should have belonged to her. If she had known this would happen, she never would have brought Lin Qingzhu to Sword Immortal Peak. This was simply inviting a wolf into the house.
"Wuu... Senior Brother..."
"Alright, Qingzhu, what are you saying?"
Ye Xuan had no choice but to act as a mediator to ease the tension between the two. Otherwise, Little Moon might start fighting with Lin Qingzhu. Although it would be a beautiful sight, it was not the outcome Ye Xuan wanted to see.
"Right, Little Moon, did you come to find Senior Brother to go to Cangjian Peak?" Ye Xuan suddenly remembered the promise he had made to his little Little Moon, and he asked with some embarrassment.
"Hmph, it's all that bad woman's fault. Senior Brother, you clearly remembered, yet you still ask me."
Little Moon was slightly unhappy. She went to Cangjian Peak every day, and for the past few days, Senior Brother had taken the initiative to take her there. But now that there was this bad niece Lin Qingzhu, everything had changed.
"Senior Brother, I don't care. You have to carry me to Sword Immortal Peak. I still need to practice the Sword Dao."
Ye Xuan said dotingly, "Oh, practicing the Sword Dao all the time is so boring. How about we go to the Cangqiong Secret Realm together today? Senior Brother will take you to have some fun."
...
Cangqiong Secret Realm. This place was filled with terrifying gales, making it almost impossible to move.
The sky was cyan, and the earth was covered in cracks.
Ye Xuan carried Little Moon and walked forward, trembling. Not to mention Little Moon in his arms, he had to constantly protect her with his Mystic Power; otherwise, the terrifying gales could blow her away in an instant.
Fortunately, Ye Xuan had plenty of spirit stones and medicinal pills on him, which were enough to compensate for this consumption. To ensure absolute safety, the protective Mystic Power artifact on Little Moon was also kept activated.
"Qingzhu, didn't you say the Cangqiong Secret Realm was very safe? Can this be called safe?" Ye Xuan was speechless.
Hearing this, Lin Qingzhu said awkwardly, "Well... Junior Martial Uncle, you didn't say you were bringing Junior Martial Uncle Little Moon in with you."
For cultivators, the Cangqiong Secret Realm could not only strengthen the physical body but also temper the divine soul—it had multiple benefits. But for ordinary people without cultivation, it was almost no different from hell.
Therefore, this time, they had to spend at least half of their energy protecting Little Moon.
"If I remember correctly, we still need to walk about a thousand miles."
Because Lin Qingzhu had been here before, she understood the Cangqiong Secret Realm somewhat well. After looking at the location on the map for the azure dragon undying herb and studying it, she explained.
"Sigh, it will take at least three hours to reach the destination."
"Once the divine sense in one's divine soul probes outward, it gets swept up by these gales, causing excruciating pain like being cut by knives. If one were just here for no reason, this would indeed be a sacred place for cultivating divine sense."
Ye Xuan deduced this, then spoke.
