Li Xuanxiao opened his eyes.
He sensed that his true body had already entered the secret realm.
Li Xuanxiao poked his head out from underground and secretly watched Feng Liuli and Zhao Lu as they headed away.
Still worried, he had deliberately sent out a clone to watch over them.
There was nothing too perilous about the Qi Refining Stage.
Because Lu Ziyin, who had originally been meant to lead the group, had met with an accident, Eleventh Senior Brother was leading them this time.
He was honest and dependable by nature.
The journey had been unusually smooth at the start, but a minor mishap occurred during the latter half.
They encountered a Beast Tide.
A Beast Tide was a large-scale rampage of ferocious beasts.
Fortunately, Feng Liuli and Zhao Lu both carried the poison Li Xuanxiao had prepared for them.
"Get behind me!"
Eleventh Senior Brother shouted.
But Feng Liuli and Zhao Lu had already each taken out a small bottle of poison powder.
The moment they scattered the powder, the ferocious beasts fell one after another.
Eleventh Senior Brother shot the two of them a surprised glance, but he had no time to dwell on it.
He led them in a frantic escape.
Fortunately, they escaped without real danger, though Feng Liuli and Zhao Lu became separated from Eleventh Senior Brother.
Feng Liuli walked alone along a mountain path, following it onward.
Even she had no idea where she had ended up.
At that moment, a full moon hung in the sky.
Firelight suddenly appeared in the small village ahead, and it seemed quite lively.
So Feng Liuli walked over.
There, she saw many villagers prostrating themselves around someone, continuously knocking their heads against the ground.
Feng Liuli's gaze was immediately drawn to the person at the center.
