Master, when can I become your wife?

Seven days have passed since then.

Luo Yunxi lay on the grass, yawning boredly, calculating the time in her mind.

Ling Xue, who was beside him, was still somewhat reserved.

She dared not overreact, for fear of angering Luo Yunxi and losing her greatest support.

He would glance at the distant secret realm every now and then.

I eagerly await its opening.

hum-

Suddenly, the secret realm trembled, and the originally faint glow became exceptionally dazzling!

Even from a hundred miles away, the glow of the sunset can be clearly seen here.

The secret realm has opened!

The magnificent palace was still partially obscured, but the previously tightly closed doors were slowly opening.

Within it is a deep, swirling entrance.

"Senior, the secret realm has opened."

Ling Xue was thrilled and quickly whispered a reminder.

"Yes, I saw it."

Luo Yunxi looked at the entrance to the secret realm that had already been opened, but did not set off immediately. Instead, she prepared to let the others explore the way first.

Some people choose to wait and see, while others can't wait.

After all, going in first means being able to obtain the treasure first.

Soon, the first cultivator rushed towards the secret realm.

He is a powerful cultivator in the early stages of Foundation Establishment.

But just as they rushed to the edge of the secret realm, before they could even enter, they were attacked by other people.

The time has come to seize the key to the secret realm.

The battles of Foundation Establishment stage cultivators are already quite spectacular, and they can use various basic Dao techniques with ease.

Flames, water, ice, and storms danced across the sky.

Ling Xue couldn't help but swallow hard.

That's terrifying.

If she were to go up there, she probably wouldn't survive more than a few breaths.

In the midst of the chaos, some people took advantage of the situation.

A cultivator at the late stage of Qi Refining, taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to him, directly swept through the crowd and rushed into the vortex of the secret realm. Then, in full view of everyone, he was shredded into dust all over the ground.

"Fool, you dare to go in without the key to the secret realm?"

Some people couldn't help but sneer. "To enter the secret realm, you must have the secret realm key. Don't you even know such a simple principle?"

Just then, the spatial ring of the man who had been shredded and fell to the ground was also shattered by the vortex.

All the resources within were subsequently destroyed.

Only one Secret Realm Key fell to the ground.

Clearly, the material of this secret realm key must be extraordinary.

whoosh-

A figure with quick eyes and hands rushed to the front of the secret realm, picked up the unclaimed secret realm key, and rushed into the secret realm.

"hateful!"

Everyone cursed themselves for being a beat too slow, but since things had come to this, they should hurry up and grab the secret realm keys from the others.

"Someone went in, let's go in too."

Luo Yunxi stood up and led Ling Xue toward the secret realm, revealing her peak Foundation Establishment cultivation.

No one would be foolish enough to compete with a Foundation Establishment Peak cultivator for the Secret Realm Key when they have other options.

If he does, he certainly won't live past today.

Luo Yunxi, carrying Ling Xue on her sword, entered the secret realm without any hindrance, holding the secret realm key that emitted golden light.

"Damn it, so what if you have high cultivation level!"

Those outside the secret realm only began to curse after Luo Yunxi and Ling Xue had completely disappeared.

"High cultivation level...that's truly remarkable."

Upon hearing this, the nearby cultivators couldn't help but tell the truth.

"..."

After a moment of silence, the melee resumed.

This time the fighting was even fiercer.

Someone has already gone in. If we continue to delay, the treasures in the secret realm will probably all be taken.

……

At the same time, Luo Yunxi and Ling Xue, who had just entered the secret realm, were attacked by the person who had entered first.

"Um?"

Luo Yunxi frowned, and swiftly swung her Water Cloud Sword, directly severing the longsword that the attacker was wielding, and in the process, cutting off the attacker's arm.

Compared to top-grade spiritual artifacts, the weapons of these low-level cultivators can only be described as scrap metal.

"Senior! I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you. Please, have mercy and spare my life."

The cultivator whose arm had been severed knelt on the ground, kowtowing and begging for mercy.

He originally intended to take advantage of being the first to enter, to launch a sneak attack in the secret realm, and kill all those who entered after him.

In this way, he can enjoy all the resources of the secret realm by himself.

Unexpectedly, the second person to enter was Luo Yunxi.

Moreover, while being ambushed, the opponent severed his weapon and arm with a single sword strike.

This disparity in strength terrified him.

"Let you go? Ridiculous!"

Luo Yunxi sneered, swung her Water Cloud Sword, and directly beheaded the other party.

In an instant, blood stained the palace floor red.

Luo Yunxi sheathed her long sword and silently looked at the furnishings in the palace.

Don't be fooled by how decisive she was just now.

But this was actually her first time killing someone, and even though she had prepared herself mentally, she was still somewhat unaccustomed to it.

However, she still had to maintain her seniority and couldn't let Ling Xue see through her.

Let's see if there are any cultivation resources here.

Luo Yunxi stepped over the bloodstains on the ground and began to survey the situation inside the palace.

Ling Xue swallowed hard as she looked at the corpse lying on the ground, then quickly followed Luo Yunxi.

As long as she doesn't do anything wrong, Luo Yunxi won't harm her.

Ling Xue firmly believed it.

But to their surprise, the palace, which looked magnificent, was in fact only magnificent.

Everywhere there were furnishings made of gold, as well as luminous pearls and other treasures that would be worth a fortune in the mortal world.

But there wasn't a single cultivation resource available.

"Perhaps it's not in this room?"

Luo Yunxi raised an eyebrow, recalling various records about such man-made secret realms, and a bad feeling crept into her heart.

Ling Xue didn't have any particular thoughts on this; she just felt that since this was a main hall, it was normal not to have any cultivation resources.

Cultivation resources should all be kept in a special place for storing treasures.

Or perhaps it's in a room where a powerful figure left behind their legacy.

Before heading to the next room, Luo Yunxi looked at Ling Xue behind her and said, "You don't have a spatial ring yet, do you? Go and get that person's spatial ring."

Ling Xue was taken aback upon hearing this, but after realizing what was happening, she immediately took off her spatial ring and gave it to Luo Yunxi.

"What are you going to do for me?"

Luo Yunxi was speechless. Had she not explained herself clearly?

"There should still be his cultivation resources inside. I'll just need the spatial ring."

Ling Xue pursed her lips and explained.

"..."

Luo Yunxi couldn't help but laugh when she saw Ling Xue's timid demeanor. "Keep it. I don't need it."

Although she knew the other party was afraid of her strength, her obedient demeanor really pleased her.

Ling Xue was pleasantly surprised upon hearing this and thanked him repeatedly, "Thank you, senior!"

After infusing spiritual energy, Ling Xue saw the resources inside.

Although these low-level cultivators were all very poor to Luo Yunxi, and there was nothing of value in their spatial rings.

But for Ling Xue, they were all invaluable treasures.

In Ling Xue's opinion, being able to obtain the legacy of a Foundation Establishment cultivator was already a worthwhile trip.

"Let's go check out the next one."
