How Was This Any Different from Picking Up Money Off the Ground?
Lu Yang thought for a moment and said, "Aren't you worried that I can't protect you? After all, you are a disciple of the Great Mystery Sword Sect. If you leave the sect, not to mention what Chi Mo will think, the Great Void Sword Sect probably won't tolerate you, right?"
Upon hearing this, Senior Sister Wang fell silent.
She was initially worried and anxious because she was concerned that Junior Brother Yu died mysteriously, and if Patriarch Chi Mo investigated, he might trace it back to her.
Of course, another reason was that she was worried this fellow Daoist would expose the fact that she had killed her Junior Brother Yu.
When the time comes, Patriarch Chi Mo will certainly not let her go.
However, she really hadn't considered the next layer. She had been in the sect for many years and had received a lot of resources and training from the sect. If she were to leave the sect directly, she would already be unable to get past the sect's requirements, let alone anything else.
Although this fellow Daoist is very strong and has Elder Su Jinxuan's backing, even Elder Su Jinxuan probably wouldn't dare to protect her, right?
After all, this is an internal matter of the Great Void Sword Sect.
Thinking of this, Senior Sister Wang hesitated.
She glanced at Lu Yang, then hesitated, as if she wanted to say something.
Seeing Senior Sister Wang's hesitant look, Lu Yang quickly realized what she was worried about.
Lu Yang chuckled lightly and said in a gentle tone, "Fellow Daoist Wang, rest assured. I won't say anything more about your righteous act. If you don't believe me, I'll just make a Heavenly Dao Oath."
Upon hearing this, Senior Sister Wang did not refuse outright. Instead, she hesitated for a moment, then bowed to Lu Yang and said, "Then I'll trouble you to make a vow, fellow Daoist... This matter truly concerns my life."
Lu Yang nodded and chuckled, "I understand."
To be honest, he and this Senior Sister Wang were not related at all, and they were complete strangers.
If it were him, he wouldn't feel at ease either.
Lu Yang immediately Heavenly Dao Oath, stating that he would not reveal that Senior Sister Wang had killed Junior Brother Yu without her permission.
Senior Sister Wang was finally relieved.
She bowed gratefully to Lu Yang and said, "Thank you for your understanding, fellow Daoist!"
She paused for a moment, glanced at the Sword Intent Grass in Lu Yang's hand, then looked away and said, "In that case, I'll take my leave. Fellow Daoist, be careful, my sect's fellow disciples might be wary of you..."
Senior Sister Wang originally intended to ask Lu Yang to pay attention to the disciples of the Great Void Sword Sect, but she stopped halfway through her sentence.
My reminder was completely unnecessary.
What a joke... She still can't figure out how that fellow Daoist managed to erase the Great Void Sword Qi.
As far as she knew, even her master, an elder of the Great Void Sword Sect at the Late Golden Core, could not do this.
She even doubted that even Nascent Soul Realm ancestor might not be able to accomplish such a miraculous feat.
This fellow Daoist is too mysterious, yet incredibly powerful.
Someone of that caliber doesn't need her reminders.
She wanted Lu Yang to show mercy to the disciples of the Great Void Sword Sect, but she didn't have the face to say it out loud.
After all, the conditions offered by Patriarch Chi Mo were too good. Most of his fellow disciples would probably try to kill Lu Yang if they encountered him.
If she were in the same situation as someone who wanted to kill her, she probably wouldn't hold back either.
She said no more, bid farewell to Lu Yang, turned and transformed into a rainbow of light, disappearing into the horizon.
She purchased resource points from several secret realm maps, and this Sword Intent Grass was one of them.
Unfortunately, bad luck struck; he didn't get his hands on the Sword Intent Grass, and almost lost his life here instead.
Hopefully, nothing else goes wrong at the other resource points.
Lu Yang watched Senior Sister Wang's departing figure, then turned and moved in another direction.
Lu Yang's speed wasn't too fast; he mostly moved around the secret realm with a playful attitude.
After all, for him, the fortuitous opportunities in the secret realm weren't particularly rare or precious; it would be good if he had them, but it wouldn't matter if he didn't.
Therefore, he had no particular motivation to search for resources in the secret realm.
He didn't even use the search function.
He planned to use this function when the secret realm's time was almost up to see what the secret realm was really like.
However, even though Lu Yang was mostly exploring the secret realm with a playful attitude, he still encountered quite a few fortuitous opportunities.
For example, he found two Copper-Skin Jujube Trees that can improve Qi and Blood and physical strength. They were covered with Copper-Skin Jujubes, all of which were ripe and numbered in the hundreds, enough to be eaten as ordinary fruit.
For example, two Pill Formulas were found in an abandoned attic, which recorded relatively ancient methods of refining elixirs.
All types of pills are available, from first-tier to fourth-tier pills.
This thing is useless to Lu Yang, but it can be given to Yingying. When Yingying refines top-grade pills, he can use them too.
Lu Yang even occasionally found High-Grade Spirit Stones on the road, adding up to over a hundred of them.
Lu Yang himself was a little confused. What was the difference between this and picking up money on the ground?
And it wasn't just once or twice!
Lu Yang had no idea where these High-Grade Spirit Stones came from. Were they thrown out of those abandoned palaces during the battle?
Or was it formed naturally within a secret realm?
Or was it left behind by cultivators who explored the secret realm before?
Regardless of where these High-Grade Spirit Stones came from, being able to collect hundreds of High-Grade Spirit Stone a day would probably make other disciples who entered the secret realm green with envy.
If hundreds of High-Grade Spirit Stones were exchanged for Low-Grade Spirit Stones commonly used by the Qi Refining Realm and Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators, that would be equivalent to hundreds of billions!
My luck is absolutely outrageous!
Lu Yang had felt something was off before, since he always used the highest multiplier when he used the Rebate Card.
Even the next lower multiplier is rare, let alone others.
He initially thought it was a system benefit.
Now it seems that's not the case?
His luck is so good it's almost unbelievable, he doesn't need to cultivate immortality anymore.
Lu Yang thought for a long time, but still couldn't come up with a solution.
Regardless, good luck is definitely a good thing for Lu Yang.
The secret realm also has day and night.
On the second day after entering the secret realm, on a desolate mountain, Lin Ying wore a light green dress, her black hair simply tied up with a light green wooden hairpin, a gentle smile on her pretty face, her eyes sweeping over the desolate mountain area.
Lin Ying took Lu Yang's instructions very seriously. She immediately went to look up information about the Golden-Thread Lingzhi so that she could find it quickly after entering the secret realm.
Golden-Thread Lingzhi is a rare second-tier spirit medicine used to refine body-tempering pills. This type of lingzhi generally grows in desolate mountains and wilderness where the energy of metal and stone is relatively abundant, and it is best if there is plenty of sunshine.
Lin Ying had previously researched the information and knew that someone had obtained the Golden-Thread Lingzhi in the Ancient Yue Secret Realm, specifically in the desolate mountain area of the secret realm.
Therefore, Lin Ying immediately approached the barren mountain area and began her search.
Just then, a rumbling sound suddenly rang out in the distance, and fluctuations of Spiritual Qi energy spread out from that direction. At the same time, the fierce roars of Demon Beasts also followed.
Lin Ying was still hesitant about whether or not to go and take a look.
After all, as Alchemist, she wasn't particularly skilled in combat, and to be honest, she didn't really want to fight others.
Her goal was singular: to find a Golden-Thread Lingzhi, complete Lu Yang's mission, and then even leaving the secret realm would be worthwhile.
Just as Lin Ying was pondering, two streaks of light suddenly shot towards her at an extremely fast speed from afar.
Behind the two streaks of rainbow light, a dark cloud was also rapidly approaching. The cloud was pitch black, and a huge figure could be vaguely seen inside it.
