After cultivating immortality, she devoted herself to becoming an ancestor

Chapter 118 Advancement
Several cultivators who were preparing to reach the Nascent Soul stage suddenly felt their spiritual energy flowing smoothly in their dantian, as if they were about to advance to the next level.

They looked at each other and thought of the saying "no destruction, no construction." Could it really be an unfinished portal pressing down on their fate?

Therefore, we cannot stand idly by and watch the tower rise; "Slay it quickly!"

As the saying goes, destruction is much faster than construction. With the combined efforts of the Nascent Soul cultivators and a variety of other methods, the tower, which could not be rebuilt, crumbled into dust in just a few hours.

Shen Suiren clearly saw that where the chains emerged, a trench a hundred feet deep had been blasted open.

As the endless spiritual energy within surged, it tossed everyone high into the air, then sucked them down, before flinging them out again moments later.

Just as Zhu Kuang Zhenjun steadied herself, she heard Situ Shiyuan's voice transmission from afar. Subconsciously, she reached out and touched the two small spatial chambers at her waist.

He didn't touch anything, his heart skipped a beat, and he flew rapidly down into the ditch.

"What's wrong?" Chongming jumped up with her, which attracted more Nascent Soul cultivators to look down.

It's not that they don't use their divine sense, but rather that this trench, which is twenty zhang wide, one hundred zhang long, and one hundred zhang deep, strictly follows the laws of the cultivation world, suppressing divine sense within one hundred zhang, and even nascent souls are no exception.

Actually, this place can no longer be called a ditch; it should be called a canyon.

However, even after descending to the very bottom, they still couldn't find Sui Chu and the others, including the two small huts.

She didn't have time to answer her senior brother's telepathic message, but quickly sent a message to her two disciples: "Shi Yuan, come here with Lei Dun immediately."

Then he told everyone, "At the beginning of the year, I disappeared along with several Foundation Establishment disciples. Little Fox King and Ao Jian also disappeared at the same time."

So, I want to try and see if I can trigger any teleportation using the same space cabin.

Fellow Daoists, please examine yourselves for any unusual signs.

As it turned out, she and Chongming didn't teleport away after entering the space cabin, and the next batch of Thunder Shields and a seventh-tier demon also failed to arrive.

"Looking for someone in the early Foundation Establishment stage, my little disciple Bai Yu was the first to sign up to find someone." Sect Master Fu Jiang thought to himself, this is the perfect opportunity for Bai Yu to show off.

How could anyone else allow him to steal the spotlight? The current situation is clearly that after the teleportation gate disappeared, a new teleportation channel was opened. The location may not be in another world, but it must contain some kind of secret place.

After all, Shen Dingru's soul lamp reaction was genuine.

As they were discussing, several people's communication talismans rang. When they opened them, they were pleasantly surprised: "Just now, a batch of Breakthrough Pills was successfully refined."

"Judging by the time, it was exactly when the canyon in front of us split open."

"It seems that the half-dead gate should indeed be eliminated."

"Those who should reach the Nascent Soul stage should do so as soon as possible. The Dragon Palace is not giving us much time."

"Good fellow Daoist, issue an arrest warrant. Chu Mo is definitely not a small problem."

"..."

"Thus, fellow Daoists who are preparing to transform into Nascent Souls can come to my sect to prepare, while those who have not yet returned from other sects and are at the Foundation Establishment stage can come here to give it a try."

"How about we name it Sparrow King Canyon for now?" Fu Jiangzong ended the casual conversation.

The Nascent Soul cultivators didn't object; what they were called didn't matter, as long as there were more disciples who could enter the secret realm, it would be good for everyone.

Believe it or not, the Nascent Soul cultivators are quite knowledgeable, and Shen Suiren and the others were actually teleported to a place brimming with spiritual energy.

Unfortunately, only those in the early stages of Foundation Establishment could leave the spatial hut; the Little Fox King and the Little Dragon King were unable to escape.

The latter jumped up and down in the small space cabin, and Cheng Zhishun carefully comforted him.

The former's eyes darted around, and he beckoned Shen Suiren back into the space room, saying, "Let's make another contract so we can share information anytime."

“Okay.” Shen Suiren hurried toward the direction indicated by the soul lamp and made a contract with her without much thought.

After leaving the small space house, she discovered that the Little Fox King had actually come out with her. Even though his cultivation level was suppressed to the fifth rank, he was smiling like a little fox who had stolen a chicken.

Shen Suiren belatedly praised, "Tu Shanluan, you are really smart."

"Hehe, so-so." The little fox king proudly released his divine sense and discovered that the exploration range of a seventh-level being a hundred miles had been suppressed to four or five miles this time.

The secret realm loves to suppress cultivation levels; it's so annoying.

Her consciousness was filled with desolate vegetation, and the faint smell of blood at the tip of her nose made her feel uneasy.

"Everyone should be careful. It's best to wear this 'Thousand Miles Connection' to prevent sudden loss of contact." Luo Ning offered a very practical suggestion and took out several red wristbands, first exchanging spiritual imprints with Sui Chu.

There was no way around it; the smell of blood was indeed strong at times and weak at others. She even saw half-hidden fresh human and demon bones not far away, which clearly showed that this was not a benevolent place.

Nie Chengzhang silently accepted it, and as he turned to call out to Juexing, he discovered that Juexing had gone back into the space cabin.

So he knocked on the door: "What are you doing? Little Dragon King needs to..."

"Shh, I finally managed to get him to sleep." Cheng Zhishun covered the little dragon king with a thin blanket and lit some calming incense so the little guy could sleep a couple more days.

Only after leaving with Juexing and putting away the space house did he say, "Ao Jian has been a bit irritable ever since he fell into this place."

So please bear with him, Little Fox King, and don't upset him.

If you don't mention anything about forming a bond, he probably won't think of it.

"Why don't you make a pact with him?" The little fox king transformed into an even smaller fox once more, jumping onto Sui Chu's shoulder to exchange the "Thousand Miles of Bonds" with everyone.

After a moment of contemplation, Cheng Zhishun said, "The Dragon-Slaying and Soul-Sealing Array is very likely not sealing the soul inside the tower, but rather the dragon soul here."

"The Little Dragon King should stay inside from now on."

"You're really nice to the Little Dragon King." Juexing couldn't help but tease him a bit, then jumped onto the flying carpet at the beginning of the year and asked, "Why didn't you choose the flying boat?"

"I'm worried about another explosion." Shen Suiren didn't know why, but whenever he used the flying boat, it would die young before long.

"Hurry up and move your essential items to the storage chain in case you encounter the Spiritless Abyss."

Not long after, the flying carpet carried them along the path guided by the soul lamp, traversing mountains and rivers.

The places they passed through were more desolate than the last, and although the spiritual energy was even more abundant than in the Taiyuan Realm, they all showed signs of decay.

Moreover, we didn't see any spiritual plants or fruits.

"Stop! I hear the sounds of magic fighting!" The little fox king twitched his ears and pointed in a direction.

And that place is precisely where the flames of the Soul Lamp are guiding us.

The five immediately went into defensive and offensive mode, dismounted from the flying carpet, and each rode their swords.

As they approached the battle location, Shen Suiren's heightened divine sense first revealed several fourth-tier demonic beasts being besieged by a sword formation of over thirty late-stage Qi Refining cultivators.

Further out, there were Qi Refining cultivators holding swords and knives, seemingly ready to provide support at any time.

Meanwhile, several Foundation Establishment cultivators stood on their swords in mid-air, giving pointers to the Qi Refining cultivators on the strength of their sword swings and occasionally assisting them in attacking the demonic beasts.

One of the white-haired Foundation Establishment cultivators, sensing her divine consciousness keenly, turned around and looked over.

Shen Suiren's hand, gripping the soul lamp, trembled involuntarily. Father?! Is it real or fake?
The Little Fox King had long noticed that her consciousness was different from ordinary people, and quietly asked in a telepathic voice, "Sui Chu, did you see something...?"

Before he could finish asking, a fifth-tier Howling Moon Wolf flew in from the side, and in the blink of an eye, a rare fifth-tier Fire Crow also flew over.

Nie Chengzhang immediately swung his sword, but Shen Suiren unexpectedly drew her blade to block him. With two clangs, she said, "Don't make a move." The others were still wondering when they saw a Qi Refining stage cultivator running towards them from afar. "May I ask if you seniors are disciples of the Taiyi Sect or independent cultivators?"

Before Juexing could speak, Cheng Zhishun had already started to boast: "We are disciples from various sects in the Taiyuan Realm. We just happened to open up this place and came here to take a look."

"Are there any Taiyi disciples?" The Qi Refining cultivators were persistent and showed no fear in the face of five Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Shen Suiren raised his hand to stop his teammates from speaking and secretly protected the Soul Lamp: "Please go and inform them that Shen Dingru's daughter from the Taiyi Sect has come to find her father."

"The daughter of Immortal Master Shen?" The Qi Refiners exchanged glances, quite surprised, and quickly sent messages via flying swords.

Suddenly, the Howling Moon Wolf on the side let out a long howl. The Fire Crow wanted to fly closer to examine her, but after a glance from the Little Fox King, it did not approach.

Shen Suiren thought for a moment, then jumped off the flying sword. "You've seen me before?"

The fire crow tilted its head to look again, then hesitated before nodding and whistling away.

The next moment, in Shen Suiren's consciousness, he saw the white-haired cultivator who had opened the flying sword message looking in this direction. But strangely, as his flying sword turned and flew away, he was pulled back by something.

As the fire crow spread its wings to rescue, other Foundation Establishment cultivators in mid-air were also pulled into disarray, startling a group of Qi Refining cultivators who were surrounding the demon with a sword formation.

As a result, the fourth-tier demonic beasts took the opportunity to break out of the encirclement. The Howling Moon Wolf turned back to defend, but it could only stop one of them from escaping.

The Qi Refining cultivators on this side also hurriedly returned, but their lightness techniques were not as fast as Shen Suiren's shout of "Follow me to kill demons!"

Five flying swords instantly blocked the path of several running fourth-tier beasts, unleashing spells and sword energy of varying spiritual power at them.

Amidst the clanging sounds, those demonic beasts were actually able to withstand the sword energy.

The five of them each used their unique skills, employing ice seal talismans, fireball talismans, and immobilization talismans in unison.

"No matter how thick-skinned you are, you can't escape!" Nie Chengzhang added more fire spiritual power to the sword. When he stabbed down one of them, he found that Juexing had already used a fire talisman to knock down another one with a single blow.

He wanted to help his teammates, but then he noticed that Sui Chu's knife had cleanly severed the head of a frozen beast. Luo Ning used the same technique, but with a sword.

Only Cheng Zhishun, without his magic sword, unleashed one spell after another, aiming specifically at the eyes of the demonic beasts.

"Stop playing around." Shen Suiren turned and flew away, flicking out a Foundation Establishment stage ice-sealing talisman.

The demon froze instantly, still in a menacing pose as it flipped over, and Cheng Zhishun swiftly severed its head with a spiritual energy blade.

The battle ended too quickly; by the time the Qi Refining cultivators who had been chasing them arrived, there were no living demons left.

Oh no, there are two more: the Howling Moon Wolf that bit off the neck of a demon beast, and the Little Fox King standing on Shen Suiren's shoulder.

"What are you all standing there for? Quickly take away the demon corpse."

"This is a gift for our first meeting." Her words stunned the Qi Refiners once again.

"A demon? Can a demon speak human language?"

"Awooo!" The Howling Moon Wolf roared at them in dissatisfaction, then walked up to Shen Suiren and gestured for her to follow it.

The group of five ignored the bewildered Qi Refining cultivator and followed the Howling Moon Wolf in the direction where Shen Dingru and the others had disappeared.

After walking for about a hundred feet, they came to a clump of grass taller than a person. Although the drag marks were obvious, their divine sense could not penetrate the grass, and they did not know the depth of the grass.

Shen Suiren transmitted her voice to her teammates: "You guys wait outside, I'll go in first."

As a result, she stepped into the bushes, and the others followed. Cheng Zhishun even said, "Let's hurry up, we also want to see who those people are."

"Seniors, please wait a moment." Two Qi Refining cultivators rushed over and called out to the group.

Shen Suiren took a step back and asked, "Is there something you need?"

"The sword-shaped grass is particularly dangerous to one's spiritual sense; once released, it will be severed."

Moreover, when people walk among them, they cannot generate any protective aura and can only let the grass and leaves cut them.

Normally, Master Shen rarely allows us to come and go. As they spoke, the two took out animal hides from their respective bags and handed them over.

This was also their return gift: "This is an animal garment made from the hide of an armored bear; wearing it will protect you from cuts."

The quantity is too small; there are only these two new sets available.

"Thank you." Shen Suiren stepped forward and accepted it. She was wearing a monastic robe, but she couldn't refuse the other person's kindness.

He then took two more bottles of Qi-gathering pills and gave them to the two men: "Why did my father and the others suddenly fall into the bushes?"

They had heard that the elixirs outside were very good, but the two cultivators were too embarrassed to open the bottles on the spot, and only said, "They are bound by long ropes and cannot be untied."

The seniors can ask them themselves; we don't know much more than that.

But you must finish walking through the grass before the dew falls, otherwise it will swallow you up and feed on you.

"Is the sword-foot grass really that dangerous? Is it a mutated one?" Upon hearing this, Juexing couldn't help but slash at the grass in front of him with his spiritual power.

Unexpectedly, the leaves continued to sway in the wind without breaking in the slightest. Instead, his hand was cut and bleeding, and he couldn't stop the bleeding with his spiritual power. "It felt like a sword was cutting my hand."

The hemostatic powder that Nie Chengzhang applied to him had no effect whatsoever.

"Do you have any special hemostatic medicine?" Shen Suiren quickly rummaged through her healing medicine. Seeing that the two Qi Refining cultivators shook their heads, she simply flicked a Small Rejuvenation Pill into Juexing's mouth.

The Howling Moon Wolf impatiently swung its tail on the side, and even when the Little Fox King glared at it, it continued to swung its tail.

"It still won't work. We've been cut all the way here. How long will we bleed?" Shen Suiren considered taking her teammates into the spatial cabin.

One of the practitioners said, "There is cattail grass in the innermost part. Burn it to ashes and apply it to the wound, and it will heal immediately. No other medicine will work."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Master Shen's daughter put the little fox into the spirit beast bracelet, and then push the little monk and the cultivator bandaging him next to him, and the two disappeared into thin air.

So, naively, he asked, "Can a person enter the spirit beast bracelet?"

“The spatial magic room, I’ll let you try it out when you have the chance.” Shen Suiren was about to push Luo Ning and Cheng Zhishun inside again, but the two had already taken their magic robes and stepped into the bushes before her.

“At the beginning of the year, we weren’t so delicate.” The two of them covered their heads and faces with their robes in perfect unison.

Juexing and Nie Chengzhang, who were inside the space room, also wanted to jump out, but Shen Suiren also entered the bushes, and they couldn't get out without her permission.

The grass was so tall and dense that anyone who entered would be instantly engulfed by it.

Even if the face is covered by a robe, the blade of grass can still cut through the robe. Although the blade of grass does not touch the face or hands, the force of its movement is as if sword energy is hitting the body from a distance.

Trying to circulate spiritual energy to temper one's body while walking, the sword leaf could pierce into the body with the fluctuations of spiritual energy, causing excruciating pain.

Shen Suiren couldn't help but admire the Howling Moon Wolf leading the way, which didn't stop for a moment even as the grass scratched its fur.

When the three of them emerged from the bushes, a vast, grayish-brown dragon skeleton appeared before them in the middle of a flat field.

Its body was bound by several chains, and in the breeze, its skeleton seemed about to collapse.

"As expected, the dragon's soul was cleaved and sealed, leaving not even a trace of its dragon might." Cheng Zhishun frowned and approached.

Shen Suiren, on the other hand, turned his attention to the neatly cultivated medicinal fields around the dragon bone.

This was because several male and female cultivators dressed in tattered animal skin robes were lying beside the medicinal field.

They had just been dragged back and were in so much pain that they didn't want to move. They could only scan the young people with their divine sense. Someone shouted, "Fellow Daoist Shen, wake up! See which one is your daughter."
