111: Chapter 111 is exactly the same.

Xiang Tian sank his body and quickly dove toward the bottom of the lake.

Not long after.

A deep, dark crevice appeared in his field of vision at the bottom of the lake.

"Master, it's right here!" Little Frog pointed at the crevice and shouted excitedly.

"I find it strange. How are you able to dive to the bottom of this lake?" Xiang Tian glanced at Little Frog with suspicion.

Little Frog was choked by the question and was suddenly at a loss for words: "I..." It didn't understand itself why it could be at the bottom of this lake.

"Little guy, your identity is far too suspicious." Xiang Tian's brows furrowed tightly.

"Master, I really appeared here for no reason, and was swept to the surface of the lake for no reason!" Little Frog shook its head repeatedly, anxious.

"Forget it if you don't know." Xiang Tian waved his hand.

"Anyway, you have already signed a contract with me, so you can't run away."

After saying that, he casually put Little Frog into the System space.

With a flash of his figure, he dove into that crevice.

"Hmm? This place..."

Just as he stepped into the crevice, Xiang Tian was startled by the scene before him.

He was just about to remark on how the Secret Realm was shrouded in Spiritual Qi and had a secluded and elegant scenery.

However, his gaze was suddenly drawn to a drenched figure.

"Ouyang Miaomiao?"

That's right, the woman lying unconscious on the ground was none other than Ouyang Miaomiao.

Presumably, she was the person the Ouyang Family had been looking for earlier.

Xiang Tian walked over quickly and examined her carefully.

He checked her breath and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, she's still breathing."

He waved his hand, and a wave of Spiritual Qi swept over. Ouyang Miaomiao's soaked clothes instantly became dry.

But the next second, he noticed that Ouyang Miaomiao was shivering uncontrollably.

"Is she freezing?" Xiang Tian picked her up, puzzled.

As soon as he held her, he realized something was wrong.

There was a wound on her abdomen!

"This woman actually suffered such a serious injury!" Xiang Tian was shocked and gasped.

Looking at the amount of blood from the wound.

If she wasn't treated in time, Ouyang Miaomiao would likely perish.

"System, come out! Is there a way to save her?"

"Host, you heartless person, it took you so long to remember this System?"

It immediately transformed into the phantom of a young girl and floated beside Ouyang Miaomiao to examine her carefully.

"Less talk, get down to business!" Xiang Tian had black lines on his forehead.

The System was still throwing a tantrum at a time like this.

"She can still be saved."

The System's tone finally became a bit more serious.

"Then tell me the method quickly!" Xiang Tian said anxiously.

"Host, are you willing to spend 10,000 face-slapping points to exchange for a Great Recovery Pill?"

"Damn it! You're taking advantage of the situation, aren't you?"

"Save her, or not?"

The System crossed its arms and stared at him calmly.

Xiang Tian looked down at the pale Ouyang Miaomiao in his arms.

He glanced at the point balance on the System panel—there were 20,620 points left.

He gritted his teeth: "Save her! If the points are gone, I can earn them back, but if the person is gone, she's truly gone."

As soon as he finished speaking, the System's notification sounded.

"Ding! Host consumed 10,000 face-slapping points and successfully exchanged for a Great Recovery Pill."

A jade-green Medicinal Pill appeared in the System's hand.

The System casually fed the Medicinal Pill into Ouyang Miaomiao's mouth.

Once the Medicinal Pill entered her stomach, its effect took hold instantly.

The wound on Ouyang Miaomiao's abdomen healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just a few breaths, the originally bloody and mangled wound had completely healed.

Her skin returned to being fair and smooth, without even a single scar left behind.

"System, this Medicinal Pill of yours is too awesome!" Xiang Tian exclaimed in amazement.

"That goes without saying, products from the System are always of high quality!"

The System proudly lifted its chin, and after saying that, it transformed into a ray of light and disappeared.

As the medicinal effect circulated, Ouyang Miaomiao's body stopped shivering.

She slowly opened her eyes, and a familiar face appeared in her blurred vision.

"Xiang Tian?" Her voice was weak, and tears instantly slid from the corners of her eyes.

"Heaven has not treated me poorly... To be able to see you again before I die..."

"You aren't dying yet." Xiang Tian's brows furrowed, and he asked in a deep voice.

"Tell me, what exactly happened to you?"

"Hmm? My wound..." Ouyang Miaomiao subconsciously touched her abdomen.

When she touched the smooth skin, her face was full of shock.

"The wound is gone?"

"With me, the Young Master, taking action, your injuries are naturally no problem." Xiang Tian said indifferently, then asked again.

"What exactly happened?"

Ouyang Miaomiao composed herself and recalled her previous encounter.

"It was a Man in black! He wanted to do something improper to me, and with just one move, he severely injured me... I used my last bit of strength to jump into the lake, and I don't know anything about what happened after that." She shook her head.

Xiang Tian was silent, thinking to himself.

This Man in black was most likely from the Dayue Kingdom.

Given his current strength, wanting to take revenge was still far from enough.

"Xiang Tian, we are truly fated." Ouyang Miaomiao leaned into Xiang Tian's arms, her eyes gentle.

"Tell me, are we destined for each other?"

"Don't overthink it." Xiang Tian put her down calmly.

"Since this is an independent Secret Realm, it must hide treasures. Let's explore it together first."

"Mm-hmm! I'll listen to you." Ouyang Miaomiao nodded obediently and leaned her head affectionately on Xiang Tian's shoulder.

"Any treasures found here, I will give them all to you."

Xiang Tian ignored her advances and scanned the Secret Realm.

The Spiritual Qi here was dense, and the flowers, plants, and trees grew exceptionally lush.

But at a glance, he couldn't see anything special.

"System, come out and detect what treasures are here?"

"Host, in the center of this Secret Realm, there is an extremely powerful energy reaction. A word of warning: that thing is not something you can provoke right now."

"How strong?" Xiang Tian's heart tightened.

"The intensity of that energy is no less than an Emperor-level powerhouse."

"Damn!" Xiang Tian was shocked and turned to leave.

"Then I'd better slip away quickly!"

He knew his own limitations; an Emperor-level existence could crush him with a single finger.

"Host, can you have some ambition? Being so cowardly, can we still cooperate happily?"

The System appeared again, hands on its hips, looking at him with disappointment.

"Sorry, life is the most important." Xiang Tian didn't stop walking.

"What's the rush! That energy is contained by a Seal, it won't break out in the short term, why the hell are you worried about safety!"

The System rolled its eyes.

"Contained by a Seal?" Xiang Tian paused, stroking his chin, a glint flashing in his eyes.

"That makes it worth doing!"

Something that could Seal an Emperor-level existence must be a supreme treasure!

Even if he couldn't get the core treasure, picking up some scraps would be enough for his current stage.

Realizing this.

Xiang Tian turned without hesitation and walked quickly toward the center of the Secret Realm.

"Shameless!"

The System sneered disdainfully and disappeared again.

"Xiang Tian, wait for me!" Ouyang Miaomiao hurried to catch up.

Half a day later.

The two finally arrived at the center of the Secret Realm.

"This is..."

Directly in front of Xiang Tian, a huge black light barrier floated in the air, with runes flowing over it.

It radiated a chilling pressure, causing his pupils to constrict involuntarily.

"This seems to be a Seal Formation!" Ouyang Miaomiao looked at the huge black light barrier, her eyebrows furrowed tightly.

"Mm, inside this, there should be an Emperor-level powerhouse Sealed." Xiang Tian said with a straight face.

"How do you know?" Ouyang Miaomiao looked at him, full of confusion.

"Haha! This Young Master knows astronomy above and geography below; a mere Seal Formation cannot stump me!"

Xiang Tian laughed loudly, and just as he was getting carried away.

The corner of his eye caught a glimpse of a black silhouette standing quietly inside the light barrier, eyes staring straight at him!

The moment he saw that figure, Xiang Tian's laughter stopped abruptly.

His expression changed drastically: "Sen... Senior, why are you here?"

How could he not be shocked?

Because the woman inside the light barrier looked exactly like You Lingqing!

"Kid, you know me?" The woman's voice came from inside the light barrier, hoarse and cold.

Xiang Tian's brows furrowed immediately.

This voice was clearly not You Lingqing's!

"Senior, who exactly are you? Why do you look exactly like Senior You Lingqing?"

He asked in a deep voice, staring vigilantly at the woman inside the light barrier.

"You must be Xiang Tian!" The woman didn't answer his question; instead, the corners of her mouth curled up.

"Unexpectedly, I ran right into her pawn."

Xiang Tian subconsciously took a step back, alarm bells ringing in his heart.

This woman not only knew You Lingqing, but judging by her tone, their relationship seemed quite hostile.

Fortunately, the other party was Sealed within the light barrier and couldn't come out for the time being.

"Senior is joking; I am not anyone's pawn, just a traveler passing through this place."

Xiang Tian cupped his hands, "Since Senior is cultivating here, this Junior will not disturb you, goodbye!"

After saying that, he turned around and wanted to take Ouyang Miaomiao to leave.

"You want to leave?" The woman's voice suddenly became even colder.

As soon as the words fell, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Xiang Tian and Ouyang Miaomiao, blocking their path.

Xiang Tian's pupils constricted, and his expression sank completely.

The person who arrived was none other than Senior Brother Liu Jian!

So, the one controlling Senior Brother Liu Jian was this woman inside the light barrier!

"Xiang Tian, we meet again." The long sword in Senior Brother Liu Jian's hand pointed straight at Xiang Tian, his eyes cold and filled with Killing Intent.

Xiang Tian's brows furrowed.

He carefully sensed Senior Brother Liu Jian's aura, and thought to himself that it was bad.

This guy's strength had actually increased by another notch!
