A daily divination, from family tortoise shells to immortal clans.

Eight days later, Chen Qingmo looked at the pile of talismans in front of him, which had grown into a small hill, and smiled broadly.

There are as many as seven or eight types of first-grade spirit talismans, with a wide range of functions such as trapping enemies, attacking, defending, and escaping.

He took a batch of materials from the treasure pavilion. Because they were for making talismans for the family's cultivators, the Eighth Elder did not charge him any spirit stones.

"We're leaving tomorrow, so we need to have someone distribute the talismans."

With this thought in mind, Chen Qingmo put away the talisman and headed straight for the Hall of Law Enforcement.

Inside the courtroom.

"What? You made all these talismans?"

Fifth Elder Chen Kaixiang's eyes widened in disbelief.

There were two or three hundred talismans laid out in front of him, not to mention the variety of types.

Chen Qingmo scratched his head and smiled shyly:

"I've been refining talismans these past few days, but they're all first-grade."

"Fifth Elder, please have this disciple distribute these talismans to the clansmen who are about to enter the secret realm."

Although Chen Kaixiang was shocked, he was mostly relieved.

Although the family would provide the materials, Chen Qingmo must have put in a lot of hard work to refine so many talismans in just eight days.

"I'll arrange it right away. You've worked hard these past few days, so get some rest and don't get sick after entering the secret realm."

Chen Qingmo agreed and returned to his cave.

The next day.

Upon arriving at the foot of the mountain, Chen Qingmo saw a flying boat, large enough to carry dozens of people, docked.

This is the family's only large flying artifact, which will only be used when traveling to the secret realm.

"Qingmo is here. Uncle Jiu wants to tell you that the flying boat will be controlled by your eleventh uncle, me, and the rest of us in turns."

"Watch us operate it first, and once you're familiar with it, you'll be able to operate it on your own."

"Those whose cultivation level is below the late stage of Qi Refining cannot stabilize this magic weapon, so the other clansmen cannot contribute."

"But you don't need to worry. We mainly use spirit stones as a power source, and we will only use our own spiritual power in case of an accident."

As soon as Chen Qingmo walked over, Chen Mingyi pulled him onto the flying boat.

Before long, all the clansmen had arrived.

Chen Minglu directly controlled the flying boat to hover in the air, and after rising to a hundred meters, it shot out with a "whoosh".

A protective shield of spiritual energy was deployed on the airship, ensuring everyone could rest peacefully aboard.

Two hours later, three hundred miles away from Tai Xuan Mountain, in the territory of Nanwu Mountain.

The Chen family members jumped off the flying boat and saw that several other families had already arrived and settled down.

None of them were from Xiyun Town, and they were not acquainted with each other.

They found a relatively good location to set up camp and quietly waited for the other families.

……

Chen Qingmo was meditating quietly when he suddenly heard a commotion outside the tent.

Upon going outside, they discovered that two families were clashing with a group of men with fierce-looking faces.

"You damaged my carriage, pay me two hundred spirit stones."

The scarred man pointed a knife at a Qi Refining level 5 cultivator from a Qi Refining family.

The cultivator frowned and said:

"I was just passing by you. You were the one who broke the photo. Don't frame others."

He turned to leave, but the scarred man rushed forward and blocked his way.

Suddenly, many cultivators came from both sides, and the atmosphere became tense.

"Liu Qi, keep a close eye on your men, or I won't hesitate to cripple them."

A middle-aged man emerged from the Qi Refining family. He appeared to be older than Chen Minglu and was also at the eighth level of Qi Refining.

"snort!"

Liu Qi snorted coldly. He was still at the seventh level of Qi Refining, which was a gap between him and his opponent.

The Red Dragon Hall provoked this first, and it was discovered by others; otherwise, he wouldn't have let it go.

Although they had a deputy hall master at the eighth level of Qi Refining with them, they dared not provoke the other two families too much due to their power.

Chen Qingmo was somewhat puzzled. Even the Crimson Dragon Hall had come. Could it be that they had offered some treasure to the two Foundation Establishment families?

Logically speaking, the appearance of Tribulation Cultivators should have aroused resentment, but their appearance at this time makes people think deeply.

But Chen Qingmo couldn't care less about that; as long as the Crimson Dragon Hall didn't provoke him, that was fine.

Although they had been attacked by Liu Qi and his men before, their clansmen are still alive now, so they cannot seek revenge indiscriminately.

Just as Chen Qingmo was pondering, the two Foundation Establishment families and the Iron Sword True Man arrived.

He intended to pay his respects to his master, but stopped when he heard the voice of Master Tiejian.

"There's no need to come over. If they find out you're my disciple, you might be targeted."

Afterwards, Master Tiejian and two other Foundation Establishment cultivators entered the main tent.

Nothing was said that night; everyone waited for the secret realm to open.

The next day, the cultivators looked with great interest at the three Foundation Establishment cultivators who stood in mid-air above them.

Chen Qingmo looked around and saw that there were many more rogue cultivators. It must have been because Master Tiejian had contributed to opening the secret realm that the two major families allowed some rogue cultivators to enter.

The three people in the sky each took out a broken jade plate and poured spiritual power into it.

Half an hour later, the jade plate shone brightly, merged into one, and flew towards the mountain wall in front.

"The secret realm will last for five days. If you cannot leave after five days, you will have to wait ten years."

"Don't think about staying inside on purpose. After the secret realm closes, mist beasts will be generated inside, some of which have the cultivation level of the Great Perfection of Qi Refining. If you are confident that you can survive, you don't have to come out."

An ancestor who had achieved Foundation Establishment spoke up to offer a reminder.

Chen Qingmo stared intently at the mountain wall until a spatial portal appeared on it.

"Walk!"

The Foundation Establishment family set off first, followed by the rest of the group.

Chen Qingmo entered with fellow cultivators of his clan, only to find a few people around him after landing.

He wasn't alarmed; the clan leader had already explained the situation in the secret realm, so this was a normal phenomenon.

With several of his clansmen following closely behind, Chen Qingmo took out a talisman and began to sense the locations of the others.

This talisman can sense people within a three-mile radius who possess the same talisman, but at this moment there was no reaction.

"It's too far away."

Chen Qingmo thought to himself, not fixated on finding the person. The Hundred Spirits Secret Realm was vast, and they needed to gather spiritual herbs first.

Not long after they left, two Spirit Gathering Flowers appeared in front of them; these were spiritual herbs used to refine Spirit Gathering Pills.

"Wow, a great start! We've already encountered the Spirit Gathering Flower."

A fellow cultivator, sounding excited, stepped forward to pick some.

Chen Qingmo observed his surroundings, but no one appeared until the Spirit Gathering Flower was picked.

Am I overthinking it?

Elders who had entered the secret realm before said that one should be extra careful when picking the fruit to prevent someone from attacking.

Perhaps it's because there aren't many people in their current location that things are going so smoothly.

"Qingmo, you can have it."

The clansman handed the Spirit Gathering Flower to Chen Qingmo, who was the strongest among them and it was safest for him to hold the flower.

Although the rules prohibit directly stealing herbs that others have already picked, there are still those with ill intentions within the unsupervised secret realm.

Especially since the Crimson Dragon Hall has also arrived, these robber cultivators won't follow the rules. If they get robbed and there's no one to vouch for them, they'll just have to swallow their anger.

Chen Qingmo put the Spirit Gathering Flower into his storage bag and led the others deeper into the area.

A day passed quickly.

Although Chen Qingmo and his group did not find any other clansmen, they did find a number of medicinal herbs.

We have collected more than a dozen plants of the Spirit Gathering Flower, and dozens of some lower-grade spiritual herbs.

They came to a small valley, where a rich aroma wafted from.

"This fragrance is so invigorating that it must contain many medicinal herbs."

Seeing the excitement of the people behind him, Chen Qingmo smiled and said:

"This is truly a treasure trove; we've gotten a great deal."

"But we still cannot be careless; caution is paramount."

After warning his people, Chen Qingmo led them into the valley.

Upon entering, Chen Qingmo discovered that there was already a group of people inside, who appeared to be from other Qi Refining families.

"Fellow Daoist, since we're here, we don't want to fight. How about we each gather our fruits and leave each other alone?"

Before he could speak, the leading cultivator stepped forward.
