Chapter 431 My butt is split into eight pieces.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the people of the Star Palace, led by Star Daoist and Qinghe Daoist, left this place of trouble without lingering.
They believed that Shen Rugo and Xiao Qiushui were safe and sound, and their top priority was to get away as soon as possible.
If Lingxiao Pavilion comes to its senses and actually listens to Wu Yuanshan's instigation, and seizes on Xiao Qiushui and Shen Rugo, then we'll be in big trouble.
After all, Lingxiao Pavilion has too many Nascent Soul experts. Once the two of them fall into their hands, I'm afraid all the secrets of the Star Palace will be exposed.
After leaving the Burial Immortal Valley for a hundred miles, Daoist Qinghe spared no effort, using his great supernatural powers to sweep up all his disciples and flee towards the Star Palace at lightning speed.
……
The repulsive force of the secret realm is related to one's cultivation level. The higher the realm and the stronger the strength, the greater the repulsive force and the farther one is thrown away.
Xiao Qiushui had just completed her Golden Core and her strength had increased dramatically. She was thrown into a mountain forest 500 miles away, where she landed on her bottom, creating a deep crater.
"Ouch! Damn it, couldn't you have been a little gentler?!"
He crawled out of the pit, covered in dust and dirt, rubbing his backside which had almost been split in eight pieces, and cursing under his breath.
Looking around, all I could see were mountains and forests, and I couldn't tell which way was which at all.
Just as he was scratching his head, a rumbling sound came from afar, and the ground trembled violently.
A large black bear, as big as a small mountain with glossy black fur, was seen running around in a panic.
Xiao Qiushui was overjoyed when he saw it; it was none other than Xiao Hei, the mount he had tamed in the secret realm.
Even with his peak Golden Core cultivation, Xiao Hei was still left more than 500 miles behind.
Born and raised in a secret realm, it was both curious and timid when it first came to the outside world. Upon hearing Xiao Qiushui's voice, it ran over happily, whimpering, and nuzzled Xiao Qiushui with its big head.
"Haha, Little Black! You're out too! That's great!" Xiao Qiushui patted its thick fur. "Let's go find Junior Sister and the people from the sect!"
Xiao Hei nodded repeatedly, but Xiao Qiushui frowned as she looked at its enormous size: "Your size is too conspicuous, can you shrink a bit?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Hei let out two aggrieved growls, but quickly channeled its demonic power.
A flash of light surrounded him, and his enormous body rapidly shrank, eventually becoming about the height of a person. Although still majestic, it was no longer so astonishing.
"That's right!"
Xiao Qiushui nodded in satisfaction.
He had been cultivating in the sect since childhood and rarely went down the mountain. Lacking experience in the martial world, he had no idea which way to go to the Star Palace or which way to go back to the Burial Immortal Valley.
In desperation, he took out a spirit stone, tossed it into the air, and chanted, "Heavenly spirits, earthly spirits, Supreme Lord Laozi, please show yourself and help your disciple find a direction so that the pointed end of the spirit stone will point to where I want to go!"
But after the spirit stone landed, its pointed end stuck directly into the ground.
"Am I supposed to crawl underground? Are my junior sister and the sect members underground?"
"Pah, pah, pah! What bad luck! Why would I say something like that?"
Xiao Qiushui quickly realized what was happening and slapped herself twice in the face.
The black bear watched him mutter to himself, then suddenly slapped himself across the face, his cheek instantly turning red and swollen. Confused, he instinctively took two steps back. His master seemed to have lost his mind lately, acting out of nowhere and killing people without warning.
"Little Black, what kind of look is that?"
Xiao Qiushui glared at him, and Xiao Hei turned and ran away in fright.
"Haha, just follow Little Black!"
Xiao Qiushui didn't care at all and chased after him with a loud laugh, "Xiao Hei is my lucky star, he will definitely be able to lead me to Master and Junior Sister as soon as possible!"
……
Shen Rugo, who was the last to leave the secret realm and endured the most spatial tearing force, encountered an even more perilous situation.
That terrifying force seemed to throw her into a chaotic spatial turbulence. After a long period of turbulence and compression, with a loud "boom," she crashed into the ridge of a remote and deserted mountain like a meteorite from outer space!
If she hadn't already established her foundation in the Heavenly Dao, causing a qualitative change in both her physical body and spiritual power, and hadn't reacted swiftly enough to instantly spread her spiritual energy around her body to form a protective divine light before the impact, this blow would have been enough to turn her into a bloody pulp!
Even so, the enormous impact still caused her blood to surge and her vision to go black.
The unfortunate hill fared even worse; its upper half exploded upon impact, sending countless rocks flying.
Shen Rugo's petite figure pierced through the mountain rocks and was deeply embedded in the mountain's belly, buried by the collapsed rocks.
……
Meanwhile, outside the Burial Immortal Valley, Lingxiao Pavilion spent an entire day interrogating everyone, but still failed to find the true culprit who killed Shangguan Ling'er. Lingxiaozi was furious.
What frustrated him even more was that he couldn't even find Wu Xuemei.
Just as everyone in Lingxiao Pavilion was feeling heavy-hearted, and everyone from other sects was trembling with fear, a disciple suddenly pointed into the distance and shouted, "Look! Someone's coming over there!"
The crowd looked in the direction of the sound and saw a girl with tattered clothes and a staggering figure walking towards them from a distance.
Her face was pale, a trace of blood clung to the corner of her mouth, and her eyes were filled with terror and exhaustion.
Who else could it be but Wu Xuemei?
"Mei'er!!"
"Junior Sister Xuemei!!"
Wu Yuanshan and Shi Potian shouted at the same time and rushed forward in ecstasy.
The people from Lingxiao Pavilion breathed a sigh of relief and gathered around.
However, when the divine senses of several Nascent Soul elders swept over Wu Xuemei, everyone's expression changed, revealing disbelief:
"Golden Core?! And at the peak of the early Golden Core stage, capable of breaking through to the middle Golden Core stage at any moment?"
"How is this possible?! She was clearly only at the Foundation Establishment stage before entering the secret realm!"
"A Golden Core cultivator under fourteen?! This...this talent..."
Exclamations of surprise rose and fell, everyone was shocked by Wu Xuemei's cultivation level.
Even the severely injured Ling Xiaozhi's eyes lit up with surprise.
Wu Xuemei sneered inwardly, but on the surface she pretended to be terrified and pitiful.
She had already activated her demonic arts, completely concealing her pure demonic energy and simulating the fluctuations of ordinary Golden Core spiritual power.
She was confident that unless there was a targeted investigation, even a Nascent Soul cultivator wouldn't be able to spot the flaws.
She wasn't afraid of being exposed. She had already infiltrated the area and knew that Shen Rugo and Xiao Qiushui were not present, and that the people from the Star Palace had also left. No one knew the truth about the secret realm.
Following her prepared story, Wu Xuemei began to recount, her voice choked with emotion, how she struggled to survive in the secret realm, how she unexpectedly broke through to the Golden Core stage, and how she was injured and thrown far away in the spatial turbulence...
Her words were seven parts truth and three parts falsehood, obscuring the process of obtaining the opportunity and emphasizing her luck and extraordinary talent.
The crowd listened with a mixture of amazement and sighs, nodding in agreement.
Sensing the aura emanating from her, the gazes of everyone from Lingxiao Pavilion toward her grew even more intense. Wu Xuemei's talent was probably even greater than Shangguan Ling'er's!
Ling Xiaozhi took a deep breath and asked gently, "Child, you've broken through to the Golden Core stage at such a young age; your future is limitless. What are your plans for the future?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Xuemei's eyes reddened, and she looked at Wu Yuanshan with tears welling up in her eyes: "All the disciples of my Qingyuan Sect have perished this time. When we return, Master will certainly lose his position as sect leader and will be severely punished by the Supreme Elder through confinement..."
In that case, I'm afraid there will be no place for me in the entire Qingyuan Sect..."
Wu Yuanshan had already discussed with Wu Xuemei that they would use this opportunity to get her into Lingxiao Pavilion in order to achieve their goal.
This was the perfect opportunity, and he immediately put on a show of grief and helplessness, sighing repeatedly.
