Chapter 220 Cultivation World 9
As for the sword intent left at the summit, Si Lingle comprehended some of it over five days.

She didn't dare linger. There were still Nascent Soul stage demonic beasts in this Foundation Establishment Secret Realm. She didn't know if the Qingxuan Sect was deliberately raising them.

After flying for half a day, Si Lingle finally stopped and discovered a fifth-tier spiritual plant.

After using her Heavenly Eye to investigate and confirming that there were no guardian monsters, Si Lingle collected the fifth-tier spiritual plant. After collecting it, Si Lingle continued on her way.

After a while, Si Lingle heard a sound.

"Hand over the Golden Scale Flower!"

"I discovered it first; you three fellow Daoists, do not attempt to seize it by force."

Si Lingle scanned the area with her divine sense and found a ghost cultivator confronting three disciples of the Corpse Yin Sect.

The disciples of the Corpse Yin Sect specialize in refining and controlling corpses, stealing the remains of powerful individuals to create zombies, and even turning living people into walking corpses called "corpse puppets."

Of the three disciples of the Corpse Yin Sect, two were at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage and one was at the late-Foundation Establishment stage, but all three were accompanied by Golden Core stage zombies.

As for the ghost cultivator, his cultivation level was at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment.

Si Lingle didn't want to meddle in other people's business; she couldn't afford to offend three Golden Core stage zombies!

Si Lingle quickly left this place of trouble. Just a few minutes after Si Lingle left, three men and two women appeared.

The woman leading the group was accompanied by a small purple beast, which was none other than Cang!

Cang was severely injured by his clansmen who came down from the Immortal Realm. He escaped with his life and later encountered Yu Ziyi, who was undergoing training at the Qingxuan Sect, and was rescued by her.

Yu Ziyi was born into a family of cultivators. Her ancestor was a Venerable of the Great Ascension stage of the Qingxuan Sect, her father was the Peak Master of Danfeng with the cultivation of the Nascent Soul stage, and her mother was a late-stage Nascent Soul stage cultivator.

She has powerful backing, and her parents dote on her because she's their only child.

Yu Ziyi possesses countless magical treasures, spiritual artifacts, and top-grade pills.

So although Cang was seriously injured, he was saved by Yu Ziyi.

Although he was saved, Cang's soul was severely injured, and he lost his memory.

He has now become Yu Ziyi's contracted pet.

The Yu family is indeed a family with a long and distinguished lineage. Yu Ziyi's ancestor, Yang, recognized Cang as a wind and thunder divine beast and had Yu Ziyi form a contract with Cang.

At the same time, he also used a secret technique to allow Cang to share his lifespan with Yu Ziyi, and that if Yu Ziyi was injured, the lifespan would be transferred to Cang.

The three men and one woman accompanying Yu Ziyi were there to protect her; all of them were at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment cultivation.

These four people are disciples of Yu Ziyi's parents.

As soon as Yu Ziyi and her group appeared, the three disciples of the Corpse Yin Sect left unwillingly.

Although they have a zombie at the Golden Core stage, they can't afford to offend Yu Ziyi's powerful backer.

If they kill Yu Ziyi, they will face pursuit by a Mahayana Venerable.

Anyway, there's still plenty of time. We can find that ghost cultivator again later and get the Golden Scale Flower.

"Many thanks to the fellow Daoists of Qingxuan Sect for their help," Huang Tianxiang said, bowing with his hands clasped in gratitude.

"No need to be polite." Yu Ziyi asked curiously, "Why are these Corpse Yin Sect disciples ganging up on us?"

"They saw I was alone and wanted to ambush and kill me." Huang Tianxiang would never tell you that he had obtained a sixth-tier Golden Scale Flower.

He was afraid of these five people, who threatened him to hand over the Golden Scale Flower.

He also wanted to give this golden unicorn flower to his master, who had suffered a cultivation mishap, resulting in a qi deviation and a decline in his cultivation level.

Only if his master is well can he, as a disciple, have a good life in the Black Soul Sect. If his master dies, his life will probably be difficult.

Yu Ziyi's eyes flickered slightly, "Why did I hear about the Golden Scale Flower? Did you obtain the Golden Scale Flower, fellow Daoist?"

Yu Ziyi also really wanted this Golden Scale Flower. She had a single fire spiritual root, and although her cultivation level was built up through pills, she was quite skilled at refining pills and could now refine high-grade fourth-level pills.

"Fellow Daoists, you must have misheard. I did not obtain any Golden Scale Flower." Before he finished speaking, Huang Tianxiang used his movement technique to escape.

Huang Tianxiang ran very fast and soon disappeared from sight.

When Huang Tianxiang left, Yu Ziyi released a tracking insect to follow him.

Yu Ziyi's tracking spirit insect is a fifth-order spirit insect, capable of becoming invisible, making it difficult for cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage to detect.

"Chase after him, and snatch the Golden Scale Flower!" Yu Ziyi and her group of five chased after Huang Tianxiang.

After leaving, Huang Tianxiang felt uneasy. He thought for a while, took out the jade box containing the Golden Scale Flower, as well as important talismans and soul artifacts, and placed them in another storage bag. Then he affixed the talismans, activated his soul power, and knocked the storage bag under a tree, after which he marked it with his soul.

He can then find this place based on the guidance of his soul power.

As for the tracking spirit insect on Huang Tianxiang's body, it was a low-level spirit insect. Although it was ranked fifth, it had no intelligence.

This spirit insect will only follow Huang Tianxiang, not the Golden Scale Flower.

After Yu Ziyi and her group caught up with Huang Tianxiang, they intercepted him. Once they stopped him, Yu Ziyi forced Huang Tianxiang to hand over the Golden Scale Flower.

Huang Tianxiang: Fortunately, he had foresight.

Huang Tianxiang then showed the storage bag to Yu Ziyi. After examining Huang Tianxiang's storage bag, Yu Ziyi discovered that this ghost cultivator was extremely poor.

Unable to find the golden unicorn flower she wanted, Yu Ziyi left unhappily.

Before leaving, he even had his senior brothers and sisters beat up Huang Tianxiang.

After the fight, Huang Tianxiang's storage bag was also taken away, leaving him without any medicine to treat his injuries.

After the others left, Huang Tianxiang forced himself to walk towards where he had placed his storage bag.

Unfortunately, he was too badly injured and his progress was very slow. He also had to be wary of the appearance of other cultivators and demonic beasts.

More than an hour later, Si Lingle was moving forward quickly when she discovered Huang Tianxiang, whose soul was dim.

Hey, isn't this the unlucky guy who got robbed by the Yin Corpse Sect? He's still alive.

Si Lingle had already gone in another direction, so in theory she shouldn't have run into Huang Tianxiang.

However, Si Lingle was unlucky; she encountered two Nascent Soul stage demonic beasts fighting for territory. To avoid these two demonic beasts, Si Lingle returned.

Therefore, she encountered Huang Tianxiang, who was seriously injured.

Si Lingle pondered for a moment, then descended from the sky.

They gave Huang Tianxiang a Soul-Replenishing Pill and helped him catalyze its effects.

After waiting for a while, Huang Tianxiang woke up.

"Thank you for saving my life, fellow Daoist."

“I saved you for a reason,” Si Lingle said bluntly. “Since you are a ghost cultivator, do you have a cultivation technique for cultivating the soul? I want a copy.”

The soul cultivation techniques of ghost cultivators are definitely better than those of humans.

Because ghost cultivators specialize in the cultivation of the soul.

Huang Tianxiang: "."

He hadn't expected this person to be so blunt, actually saying that he had an ulterior motive for saving him.

"Fellow Daoist, save me! I am willing to give you a cultivation technique for the soul."

“However, could you please wait for me for an hour? I need to meditate for a while before I can write down the cultivation technique for you,” Huang Tianxiang said. “Sure, no problem,” Si Lingle nodded.

Huang Tianxiang meditated and regulated his breathing for an hour. After that, he took the blank jade slip given to him by Si Lingle and silently wrote down the Divine Soul Cultivation Technique. This technique was one he had obtained; it was a Xuan-level technique that could be cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage.

"Fellow Daoist, this is a Xuan-level cultivation technique that can be cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage."

Si Lingle hadn't expected that the ghost cultivator would give her such a good cultivation technique; she had thought that getting a high-grade technique would be good enough.

Since this ghost cultivator was so generous, Si Lingle decided to be generous in return, because she discovered that the ghost cultivator's storage bag was missing, which must have been stolen by the Corpse Yin Sect.

Si Lingle took out a storage bag containing some commonly used pills and talismans, and handed it to Huang Tianxiang, saying, "Fellow Daoist, I noticed you don't have a storage bag left, so I'm giving you these things to tide you over."

"Thank you, fellow Daoist." Huang Tianxiang accepted the storage bag without ceremony.

His storage bag contained some important magical artifacts and elixirs, but everything else was stolen by the disciples of the Qingxuan Sect.

"My name is Huang Tianxiang, a disciple of the Black Soul Sect."

"Si Lingle, a disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sect." Si Lingle said, "Fellow Daoist, then we shall part ways here."

Si Lingle put away the array plate and then left.

Huang Tianxiang also went to where he hid his storage bag and took it out.

After that, we found a place to continue the recovery.

His injuries were quite serious and he hadn't fully recovered. He needed to fully recover before he could continue exploring the secret realm.

However, he had already obtained the Golden Scale Flower that his master needed, so he was not in a hurry to search for treasure. It would be better for him to quietly go into seclusion to recuperate.

This Foundation Establishment Secret Realm is open for three years, and only a few days have passed so far, so the time is still quite long.

Time passed day by day, and half a year went by just like that.

In the past six months, Si Lingle has found many high-grade spiritual plants and fruits.

She encountered many high-level demonic beasts, including those at the Golden Core stage. Si Lingle would fight them, and if they couldn't defeat her, she would run away.

Just yesterday, she was engaged in a fierce battle with a demonic beast at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm. During the battle, a demonic cultivator disciple launched a sneak attack.

Si Lingle escaped using a teleportation talisman.

Then they discovered the ancient cave dwelling.

Si Lingle stood before the ancient cave, which was surrounded by a barrier of dark golden runes.

Si Lingle intently observed the mottled patterns on the stone tablet, and suddenly stopped as she followed the inscription—three incomplete star charts were subtly echoing the sunlight shining through the cave ceiling.

Si Lingle activated his divine sense and injected it into the depression in the stone tablet. Instantly, the earth trembled, and nine bronze chains broke out of the ground, with tadpole-shaped ancient runes appearing on the chain links.

"It's the lost Nine Palaces Returning to Origin Restriction!" Si Lingyue exclaimed.

Si Lingle was able to recognize this restriction because she saw it in the library developed by the Qingxuan Sect.

Otherwise, Si Lingle wouldn't have been able to recognize this restriction.

One hundred and twenty-eight jade counting rods shot out from Si Lingle's sleeve, hovering in mid-air. As spiritual energy was poured in, the counting rods rearranged into a yin-yang fish array in the void, colliding with the chain inscriptions and creating dazzling sparks.

As sweat soaked his back, ripples suddenly appeared at a certain point in the northwest corner of the formation—a weak node created by millennia of geological changes.

Just as Si Lingle was urging the Qingchu Sword to attack the array's core, the backlash from the restriction transformed into a blood-red gale.

Si Lingle flipped his hand and produced a compass. The compass needle spun wildly and then stopped at the "Kan" position. The gale was drawn to the stone tortoise sculpture three zhang to the left.

The Bixi's eyes flashed with a blue light, and the jade bead in its mouth shattered instantly, causing the barrier of light to crack like a spiderweb.

A short while later, an entrance appeared before Si Lingle.

Si Lingle set up an array outside the cave to prevent other cultivators from discovering it, and at the same time released her Heavenly Eye to investigate first.

Through the Heavenly Eye, Si Lingle saw what was behind the passage.

It wasn't a cave dwelling, but an underground palace.

The underground palace covers a very large area, but it must be quite dangerous, because she saw many forbidden traps.

These restrictions are placed on the soul or spiritual energy fluctuations of living beings.

The Heavenly Eye has no life, no soul, and no spiritual energy, so it can easily pass through these restrictions.

Si Lingle thought for a moment, then grabbed a spirit beast from the nano-garden bag and put it inside the miniature house. Afterward, she had the flying vehicle carry the miniature house into the passage.

However, the restriction was triggered because the presence of a soul was sensed.

This restriction is quite powerful.

Suddenly, Si Lingle thought of something and took out a lifelike robot from the nanobag.

Si Lingle bought five of these lifelike robots. When she was making mechs, these five lifelike robots would assist her.

After Si Lingle explained the situation, five lifelike robots, carrying the nanocapsules given to them by Si Lingle, entered the underground palace.

Upon entering the underground palace, there is a pool with a five-colored golden lotus in it.

A lifelike robot entered the pool and, following Si Lingle's orders, collected the five-colored golden lotus and placed it into a jade box. Then it began digging in the pool and, sure enough, dug out sections of white jade lotus root, which was also put away.

As for the water in the pool, it wasn't spared either; the android collected it into its nano-garden pouch.

The other four lifelike robots went to other parts of the underground palace and looted treasures.

The owner of this underground palace probably never expected that something like a robot would appear, and that the restrictions could intercept sentient beings, puppets, and the like.

Several hours later, the underground palace was completely ransacked by Si Lingle. After the ransacking, Si Lingle put away the robot and left.

After flying for more than an hour, Si Lingle found a place to rest. After setting up a defensive array, she began to take stock of the things the robots had helped scavenge from the underground palace.

Various magical artifacts and treasures, as well as spirit stones and rare natural materials.

The spirit stones are embedded in the floor of the underground palace and on the stone pillars.

Si Lingle had the machines dig it all up.

Although some of these spirit stones were damaged after being dug out, the spiritual energy within them remained unaffected.

These spirit stones are still usable for cultivation or something.

There were also various pills, and Si Lingle wondered if they had expired.

Whether they could be eaten was still a question. Si Lingle took out these pills and fed them to the spirit beast in the Nano Garden Bag.

Si Lingle only kept these pills if these spirit beasts were still alive.

There is also a strange fire sealed in the jade box; this strange fire is the Nine Netherworld Strange Fire.

The Nine Netherworld Flame ranks tenth on the Flame Ranking.

The Nine Netherworld Flame is born in the endless abyss of the most yin land, taking shape where the yin winds and qi are most intense. The flame is accompanied by strange wind sounds that can disturb the mind and cause emotional fluctuations.

The flames are dark gold in color and possess both wind and fire attributes, creating a destructive force. The yin wind energy can corrode the opponent's meridians.

The fiery energy is violent and can corrode the enemy's body, weakening their combat power;

It can burn souls and ghosts, while also nourishing them, similar to the nourishing effect of the "Yellow Springs".

This is a wonderful treasure, but she can't form a contract with this strange fire now. She can do so after leaving the secret realm and returning to Thousand Layer Peak. After forming the contract, she can take the opportunity to break through her limits.
