After transmigrating into the body of the Jade Rat Spirit, I became Nezha's adopted sister.

Nezha turned his head and glanced at her: "The Xuan Yin Sect has been entrenched for many years and has some resources. Even though the heavenly fire is fierce, it may not be able to burn everything deep within the earth's veins. However..."

He then changed the subject: "There are quite a few demons keeping an eye on them, such as bears, yellow winds, the old dragon in Bibo Pool, and several old monsters further west. They have probably already secretly intervened."

Bai Yeying recognized these names; they were all famous monsters from Journey to the West.

"Then how do we get in?" she asked.

"Wait," Nezha said succinctly, "Wait for them to scout ahead first, wait for them to start fighting. Like the snipe and the clam fighting, understand?"

Bai Yeying nodded. She understood the principle, but...

"What if by the time they're done fighting, all the good stuff is gone?"

"Truly good things are not easy to get."

Nezha scoffed: "If the Xuan Yin Sect can hold onto something with their meager cultivation, how good can it be? The only things worth noting are scraps, which might be of some use to your small frame."

Bai Yeying: "..............."

Okay, you have high standards.

She wisely stopped asking questions, returned to her original spot, and began to sit cross-legged and regulate her breathing.

Although I didn't actually fight today, I was on edge and also suffered from the pressure of the Earth Immortal, so I need to recover.

The night was deep. Only the sound of the wind could be heard on the platform.

After an unknown amount of time, a muffled roar suddenly came from the direction of Black Wind Ridge, followed by several powerful demonic energies soaring into the sky and colliding violently!

It's fighting!

Bai Yeying immediately opened her eyes to watch the spectacle.

In the distance, various lights shone in the night sky, and roars could be faintly heard, indicating that the battle had clearly reached a fever pitch.

Nezha had turned around at some point and was looking in that direction with a calm and unwavering gaze, as if he were watching a firework display that had nothing to do with him.

"That's about enough," he suddenly said, his voice carrying clearly in the night breeze. "Let's go."

Bai Yeying quickly got up, and Huang Wu nervously followed.

Nezha raised his hand, and the Hun Tian Ling (a magical ribbon) extended and stretched on its own, surrounded by red light, gently wrapping around Bai Yeying.

"Don't move." He warned, and the flames of the Wind and Fire Wheels beneath his feet blazed brightly, a crimson light enveloping her as she silently pierced the night sky like an arrow released from a bow, heading straight for the source of the turmoil deep within Black Wind Ridge!

Huang Wu stood there, staring blankly in the direction the two had disappeared. Should he wait there or follow them?

He watched the fighting and shouts below. "Forget it, I'll just wait here!"

The binding force of the Hun Tian Ling was neither too tight nor too loose, enveloping Bai Yeying in a crimson stream of light. She secretly turned her head to look at Nezha beside her.

The boy stared straight ahead, his profile becoming even more defined in the light and shadow created by the fleeting movement, the red mark on his forehead gleaming brightly. He seemed to sense her gaze, but didn't turn his head; only the corner of his lips twitched slightly, as if in a hum, or something else entirely.

"pay close attention."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly swooped down! The speed was so fast that Bai Yeying's heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously closed her eyes.

When they opened their eyes again, they had fallen to earth like shooting stars, silently landing in the shadow of a cliff.

Here, several hundred feet away from the ruined valley below, illuminated by various eerie lights, one can get a panoramic view while remaining sufficiently hidden.

As the Hun Tian Ling loosened, Bai Yeying's legs went weak, but she was immediately supported by a hand that reached out from the side.

"Hold on tight." Nezha's voice was right next to his ear, clear and bright as ever, but extremely low. He immediately released his grip, turning his gaze to the battlefield below, as if what he had just done was merely a casual gesture.

Bai Yeying stopped thinking about anything else, quickly composed herself, and looked in the direction he indicated.

Below is the former core of the Xuan Yin Sect's headquarters, now only a large area of ​​charred ruins remains, with several craters of varying depths blasted into the ground by various spells.

At this moment, General Xiong Pi revealed part of his true form, standing several meters tall with black fur bristling and wielding a spiked club, and was fighting against Huang Feng.

A shadowy figure appeared amidst the yellow wind; it was none other than the Yellow Wind King, who had clearly unleashed his signature move, the Samadhi Divine Wind, causing sand and stones to fly and churn the area into darkness.

On the other side, the Dragon King from the Azure Pool revealed his dragon form, hovering in mid-air, spewing out salty water waves, and fighting with a figure shrouded in mist.

The gray mist figure was unpredictable, sometimes gathering and sometimes dispersing. Each attack carried a chilling, deathly aura, clearly a remnant expert who had escaped or rushed to the scene after the destruction of the Xuan Yin Sect.

Further out, a dozen or so groups of forces were watching from afar, while some impatient little demons began to sneak towards the undestroyed side halls and caves on the edge of the battlefield, trying to pick up any leftovers.

"That's quite a fight," Bai Yeying muttered softly, her eyes sparkling. This was a live monster battle! Much more exciting than watching a movie!

Nezha, arms crossed, leaned against a protruding rock on the edge of the cliff. He glanced at her upon hearing this and said, "Useless." His tone was as disdainful as ever.

"What are they fighting over? The mineral vein?" Bai Yeying asked. She remembered Nezha saying that the Xuan Yin Sect might have some scraps that could be useful to someone as small as her.

"Not only that." Nezha's gaze swept over the craters in the center of the battlefield, pausing for a moment on one deep pit that gleamed with a dark golden light. "Inside, there's a small Gengjin spiritual vein, of decent quality. There are also some scraps looted by the Xuanyin Sect over the years, and..."

He paused, as if sensing something: "Deep down in that pit, there seems to be something else connected, and the aura around it is a bit strange."

He turned to look at Bai Yeying, his beautiful phoenix eyes reflecting the dazzling light of the exploding spell below: "Want to go down and take a look?"

Bai Yeying was taken aback: "Now? They're fighting right now!" If this continues, won't they become the target of everyone's criticism?

"Who told you to leave through the main entrance?" Nezha sneered, casually pointing to a spot below the cliff with his finger. "Over there, see? Those idiots are only busy grabbing the scraps up there; no one has noticed that place yet."

Bai Yeying looked in the direction he pointed and indeed there was a hole. If Nezha hadn't pointed it out, it would have been hard to notice.

"Where do we go in?" she asked, a mix of excitement and worry. "Won't we be discovered?"

"With me here, what are you afraid of?" Nezha said matter-of-factly, his arrogant air of looking down on the world returning. "Hurry up, once they have a general idea of ​​what's going on, they should start to notice the movements underground."

As he spoke, he took the lead. Without any apparent movement, his figure floated down silently like a feather, hovering near the cave entrance, while one end of the Hun Tian Ling (a type of sash) extended towards Bai Ye Ying on the cliff.

Bai Yeying lightly slid down the cliff edge with her toes, guided by the Hun Tian Ling (a magical ribbon). The two of them entered the narrow cave one after the other.

The cave entrance was barely large enough for one person to squeeze through while bending over, and it was filled with a faint smell of burning, clearly caused by the heat from the celestial fire burning above.

Nezha led the way, his body emitting a faint reddish-gold light that was not dazzling but enough to illuminate several feet ahead and dispel the darkness and damp chill.

The passage winds downwards with a very steep slope.

Bai Yeying followed carefully. The further down she went, the more she felt the temperature of the surrounding stone walls gradually decreasing, and the air was filled with an uncomfortable chill.

After walking for about fifteen minutes, the passage began to widen. Nezha stopped and gestured for Bai Yeying to come closer.
