It turns out, they were the main characters.

A cultivator at the third level of the Refinement Realm actually managed to eliminate two cultivators at the Refinement Realm who were superior to him at the same time...?

Then, she stared blankly at Mu Zhian: "Why would you help me like this, young master?"

Logically speaking, it was already quite difficult for the other party to secretly send her back to the Xuan Yin Palace. After all, the other party was an ancient power like the Qian Yuan Pavilion in the Eastern Continent. If she were offended, even ordinary cultivators would probably suffer the consequences.

As it turned out, the other party not only saved her, but also took care of Qian Chen, the young master of Qian Yuan Pavilion, and Qian Chen's cousin... Wasn't he afraid of offending Qian Yuan Pavilion?

Mu Zhian gently brushed aside Lin Keyu's stray hairs and smiled, "Do you need a reason to save someone?"

"Besides, she's such a lovely girl like Miss Lin."

Lin Keyu blushed and withdrew her gaze as if she had been electrocuted.

"Little beauties are indeed easier to win over than great sharks..." Mu Zhian thought to himself, and said gently, "After this, I will hand them over to the Xuan Yin Palace and let your father handle them himself."

He paused, then continued, "But before that, I plan to give you a chance at immortality."

"A predestined connection with immortals...?"

Lin Keyu slowly raised her head, looking at the sunny smile on the handsome young man's face. He opened his mouth slightly and whispered something.

……

After seeing Lin Keyu off, Mu Zhian looked at Wei Mengrou, who was silently waiting for him in the main hall, and said with a smile, "Let's go, Sister Mengrou, I'll take you to cut down all the spirit mines."

Wei Mengrou raised an eyebrow and said, "Aren't you planning to leave some for others?"

Last time in the Spirit Dragon's Cave Heaven, Mu Zhi'an at least left two portions of luck for people, but this time he doesn't even intend to leave one, which surprised the maid.

Mu Zhian shook his head: "I don't like to do things so ruthlessly. They should still find the immortal opportunities they are meant to find."

Under Wei Mengrou's questioning gaze, Mu Zhian returned the gaze of the maid in the yellow dress: "However, we need to give it a more careful makeover."

"After all, things that you work hard to get are what bring you happiness."

……

Meanwhile, on the other side...

A group of talented cultivators were walking through the Sword Palace. After the Palace Master told them to find their own immortal opportunities, they dispersed to different parts of the Sword Palace. However, even after so long, they had not found any cultivation techniques or even pills in the Sword Palace.

Nearly an hour later, the cultivators who had been scattered in various places unknowingly met again and were now walking together on a secluded path in the mountains.

“There are too many hidden realms in this place. If we follow the usual methods, we probably won’t gain anything before the Sword Palace disappears.” After a moment of silence, a cultivator finally couldn’t help but speak up.

“There must be some immortal opportunities within the Sword Palace, but whether we can obtain them depends on our luck.” Another cultivator beside him frowned, though his expression was not good either.

Their entry into the Sword Palace was originally a cause for great joy, as it was rumored that a first-grade cultivation technique created by the Sword Emperor himself was hidden within the palace.

Now that the Sword Emperor has been reborn, it's unrealistic to expect her to possess the bronze sword. However... that first-grade cultivation technique is likely still hidden within the Sword Palace.

If we can get it, then this trip will not have been in vain.

But now...

Not to mention top-grade cultivation techniques, not even ordinary pills and medicinal herbs were found.

"Mu Zhian is also missing." Someone suddenly said, noticing that the Liangyi Sect disciple who had been following behind the group had vanished.

"I remember that the daughter of the Xuan Yin Palace Master also seems to have entered the Sword Palace, but I haven't seen her yet..." someone suddenly said.

"If she were here, she might be able to sense some kind of destiny with the immortals."

Lin Keyu had previously undergone a luck test, and her luck was an incomparably enchanting red, which meant that her luck was naturally stronger than that of most cultivators.

If she were there, she might be able to obtain some divine favor.

And at that time, they would also be able to get a share of the spoils...

Just then, a graceful figure flew over on a sword not far away. Everyone present was of a high cultivation level, so they naturally noticed the person behind them and couldn't help but turn around to look.

"Miss Lin, where did you go before? I didn't see you." A cultivator who was quite familiar with Lin Keyu's eyes lit up and he immediately greeted her.

Lin Keyu's flowing dress fluttered gently in the wind, exuding a captivating charm. The dress clung to her graceful figure in the breeze.

She lightly leaped down from the flying sword, a reserved smile on her face: "I was accidentally trapped in a cave in the Sword Palace, but fortunately I managed to escape in the end."

"I see..." No one doubted it, and even those who still had some doubts did not ask further.

After all, the Sword Palace's immortal destiny is more important right now.

The group walked along a deep, seemingly bottomless path through the mountains and forests. Under the lush green foliage, they could faintly hear the chirping of insects and birds. Completely different from the winter outside, this place was like another world unto itself.

After nearly half an hour, they emerged from the path and came into view a waterfall. In front of the waterfall, there were spirit ores of various colors scattered everywhere.

There are so many spirit mines here?!

They glanced at each other and couldn't resist. Each of them found a piece of spirit ore of a different shape and planned to cut it open.

However, the moment his palm touched the spirit ore, it was separated by an invisible array, making it impossible to reach it.

"The spirit mines here are also restricted by the formation and cannot be touched." Ye Yu frowned slightly, feeling a bit dissatisfied.

You can't touch this or that, so what kind of immortal destiny is there in this Sword Palace?

At the same time, several young geniuses nearby also encountered setbacks, unable to reach the spirit ore with their hands.

Just as everyone was frowning inwardly, Lin Keyu behind them let out a surprised look. Everyone turned around and saw that the spirit mine that Lin Keyu had just touched had been cut open, and inside the spirit mine was a thin booklet.

The booklet glowed with a mesmerizing red light, and three large characters were printed on it: Three Realms Sword.

Second-grade cultivation technique!

Everyone was immediately agitated, their eyes burning with desire as they stared intently at the second-grade cultivation technique in Lin Keyu's hand.

"Miss Lin, why is it that none of us can access the spirit mine, but you can?" Even Ye Yu couldn't sit still any longer, his gaze fixed on Lin Keyu's charming profile.

Lin Keyu smiled gently and did not hide anything: "By injecting spiritual energy into the spirit ore, the formation can be broken. Each spirit ore needs to be injected with spiritual energy once."

"I've tried before, but I couldn't break this formation. Are there any other tricks? I hope Miss Lin can enlighten me." Someone immediately asked humbly.

Generally speaking, to break a formation, you need to find the core of the formation and then use spiritual energy to dispel it.

However, the formations within the Sword Palace are naturally beyond the capabilities of cultivators at the Refining Spirit Realm.

At this moment, none of them could break the array on the spirit mine, but Lin Keyu did it, which naturally attracted attention...

If Lin Keyu can decipher the array of one spirit ore, wouldn't that mean she can decipher the arrays of all the hundreds of spirit ore arrays here?

However, with so many people present, she probably wouldn't be able to eat all that food by herself.

Lin Keyu was clearly aware of this as well, so she explained, "Our spiritual energy can't break the array's core, but I just thought of another way... If spiritual energy doesn't work, what about spirit stones?"

"Spirit stones...?"

“I’ve heard that some special blessed grottoes cannot be unsealed by a cultivator’s own spiritual energy, but the spiritual energy in spirit stones is naturally formed by heaven and earth, so it is special and can unseal the formation,” a cultivator said, his eyes brightening slightly.

They hadn't even thought of this method at first!

The group exchanged glances, then immediately took out a valuable spirit stone and injected it into the array's core.

Ye Yu also took out a spirit stone worth five thousand, and as he injected the spirit stone into the array eye, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the array seemed to be much weaker than at the beginning!

"This method really works!" came the excited voice of another cultivator beside him.

If it were just ordinary rough stones, which are available elsewhere, they wouldn't care.

But you should know that Lin Keyu just cut out a second-grade cultivation technique from the spirit mine, and there might even be a first-grade cultivation technique hidden in these spirit mines!

As if afraid that someone else would be the first to obtain the first-grade cultivation technique, the scions of the ancient aristocratic families present immediately took out spirit stones and, after finding the array eye on the spirit mine, injected the spirit stones into it.

According to their estimates, it would take about 50,000 spirit stones to unlock the array of a spirit mine.

This price is quite high; even if they are descendants of ancient noble families, they cannot afford more than a million spirit stones.

But if it's for a top-tier cultivation technique, then any price is worth paying.

Lin Keyu silently took out the second blood droplet stone, which was only the size of a fingernail, and injected it into the array eye of a spirit mine.

Compared to other cultivators who were heartbroken, she actually felt nothing.

It wasn't that she didn't care about spirit stones, but Mu Zhi'an had just promised her something...

"After that, Miss Lin's spirit stones will be returned in full, so you don't need to worry about them at all. Use whatever spirit stones you have. I'll also lend you the one million spirit stones I have here..."

Recalling what Mu Zhian had said to her back then, and his warm smile, Lin Keyu still felt strange.

She didn't know what that person wanted to do, but since he was her savior, he had no reason to harm her.

Thinking of this, Lin Keyu knelt down in front of one of the spirit mines, hugging her knees, and then silently took out another 50,000 spirit stones and poured them into the array's core...

……

In front of a dimly lit hall, Mu Zhian silently counted the spirit stones that kept appearing in front of him, then glanced at Wei Mengrou standing beside him and said, "Sister Mengrou, come and help me count how many spirit stones we can earn this time. I'm not very good at math."

"What did you say to that girl just now?" Wei Mengrou looked at the array in front of Mu Zhian with a strange expression and couldn't help but ask.

From the very beginning, a large number of special spirit stones of all kinds have been continuously appearing in the array in front of Mu Zhian, each of which is conservatively estimated to be worth a full 50,000 spirit stones.

Although it's unclear what exactly happened, it's obvious that our young master must have secretly used the Sword Palace's formation to do something shady.

After all, the authority over the Sword Palace has now been shared with Mu Zhian, and he also has control over the Sword Palace's formations.

"It's just a chance encounter with the immortals... Of course, she also needs to play the role of unlocking the secrets of the Sword Palace Spirit Mine."

Mu Zhian looked at the special spirit stones that kept emerging from the formation, turned his head to look at the graceful figure of the maid in the yellow dress, and smiled, "Didn't I just say that, Sister Mengrou?"

"Everyone loves gambling on jade stones the most."

Chapter 248 The Sword Palace Master Wants to Use Public Vehicles for Private Purposes 8K

Deep within the Sword Palace.

Bai Ruoxi sat on the soft couch with her eyes slightly closed. The hem of her palace dress could not hide her proud and full breasts, which were partially concealed by the curtains.

From an outsider's perspective, she would simply appear to be meditating and cultivating, but in reality, Bai Ruoxi is receiving the 108 Blades of Light from the Sword Palace Master.

Almost every half hour, a golden sword of light surrounding the Sword Palace would transform into golden spiritual energy and enter Bai Ruoxi's chest.

This is the legacy of the Sword Palace.

After all 108 lightsabers were completely transformed into spiritual energy and absorbed into Bai Ruoxi's chest, the inheritance of the Sword Palace was completely completed.

"You seem a little restless, are you thinking about him?" At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the depths of Bai Ruoxi's heart.

Bai Ruoxi slowly opened her eyes. In front of her appeared a woman with a similar figure to herself, but with a more mature and sophisticated air.
