Void Breaking Pill in Hand, the Immortal Falling Secret Realm Was Polluted Again!

[In the ninth year, this was also the third year of your agreement with Gu Xinyue.]

[Ever since you had used up all the spirit stones seized from the Azure Cloud Sect two years ago, your cultivation speed had visibly slowed.]

[Two years later, your cultivation had become stuck at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.]

[That day, Gu Xinyue came to find you and told you that you could head to the Pill Sect to prepare to steal the Void Breaking Pill.]

[She had received news that the Pill Sect had harvested that Spiritual Herb three days ago.]

[The next day, you and Gu Xinyue arrived at the Pill Sect.]

[This was your first time visiting the Pill Sect. It was unlike their Sword Pavilion, and unlike the other sects as well.]

[The Pill Sect was built atop a towering pagoda, divided into nine floors from top to bottom.]

[Gu Xinyue told you that your destination this time was the sect master's pill-refining chamber on the ninth floor.]

[You did not immediately bring her into the Pill Sect, instead asking the doubt in your heart.]

["Senior Sister! Are we really just going straight in?"]

[Gu Xinyue answered without a second thought.]

["Of course! Otherwise, how would we know when that old bastard finishes refining the Void Breaking Pill!"]

["But won't we be easily discovered if we just go in like this?"]

[Gu Xinyue understood your concern and taught you a Concealment Technique.]

[She told you that under normal circumstances, as long as the other party was not deliberately sensing for you, they would be unable to discover you.]

["Don't worry! That old fellow on the ninth floor is refining pills, so all his attention is on the pill refinement. Besides him, there is basically no one else!"]

[With Gu Xinyue putting it that way, your heart immediately settled considerably.]

[The next second, you used the Great Void Technique to bring her into the ninth floor of the pill tower.]

[The ninth floor was larger than you had imagined. After entering, you first arrived in a vast, empty hall.]

[You looked at Gu Xinyue, signaling for her to tell you what to do next.]

[Gu Xinyue closed her eyes. Before long, she pointed toward a corridor on the left.]

[You and Gu Xinyue used the Concealment Technique, entering a disguised state. From the outside, you looked as though you were air.]

[Not long after, you reached the end of the corridor.]

[You saw a massive bronze door standing at the end, waves of pressure emanating from it.]

["Is this an array?"]

[Gu Xinyue nodded, saying that this low-level array was utterly useless against your Great Void Technique.]

[You then waited outside this secret chamber for a full ten days.]

[On the tenth day, you and Gu Xinyue sensed a burst of pill fragrance wafting from within.]

[You and Gu Xinyue exchanged a glance, knowing that the time had come.]

[In an instant, you used the Great Void Technique to bring Gu Xinyue into the secret chamber.]

[The moment you entered, the Pill Sect's sect master sensed your presence as well.]

["Who is it?"]

[Just as the Pill Sect's sect master turned to look at you, Gu Xinyue signaled to you with her eyes.]

[You immediately understood her meaning from her gaze.]

[Use the Great Void Technique to teleport above the pill furnace and take the several Void Breaking Pills suspended over it!]

["Old bastard, thank you for refining these pills for me!"]

[The moment Gu Xinyue finished speaking, she struck at him with her sword. Seeing this, the Pill Sect's sect master answered with a palm strike.]

[Gu Xinyue borrowed his force against him and arrived directly at your side. Without the slightest hesitation, you repeatedly used the Great Void Technique to take her and flee the Pill Sect.]

[After leaving the Pill Sect, you restored your original appearances!]

["Senior Sister, where are we going next? Back to the Sword Pavilion?"]

[Gu Xinyue frowned in thought, then looked toward the Sky Abyss and said.]

["Not back to the Sword Pavilion! We're going straight to the Immortal Falling Secret Realm. I will break through to the Void Refining Realm there!"]

[Hearing this, you did not ask further. You used the Great Void Technique at full power and headed for the Immortal Falling Secret Realm.]

[You knew that the Void Breaking Pill was the key to the Pill Sect master's breakthrough into the Void Refining Realm. He would never let this go so easily.]

[Even while fleeing at full speed, you could still sense several auras pursuing you from far behind.]

[Half a month later, you successfully reached the Sky Abyss, then leaped down.]

[You and Gu Xinyue entered the Immortal Falling Secret Realm, and only then did you finally breathe a sigh of relief.]

[There was an array within the Immortal Falling Secret Realm. You were not afraid of the Pill Sect people charging in. As long as Gu Xinyue broke through to the Void Refining Realm, you would no longer fear the Pill Sect.]

[Just when you thought you were safe, you suddenly saw a familiar figure fighting someone.]

["Wan Yemo? Who is he fighting?"]

["Something isn't right!"]

[Gu Xinyue did not pay attention to the two people fighting in the distance. Instead, she furrowed her brows tightly and closed her eyes.]

["What's wrong, Senior Sister?"]

[You looked at Gu Xinyue in confusion, unable to understand what had happened to make her expression so grim.]

["Something has gone wrong with the Immortal Falling Secret Realm!"] Gu Xinyue looked around with a grave expression.

[Upon hearing this, your heart trembled violently.]

[At that moment, you suddenly remembered something. In one of the previous simulations, the Immortal Falling Secret Realm had also changed. Back then, the array had been broken and the spiritual energy had been polluted.]

[Thinking of this, you abruptly closed your eyes and sensed the spiritual energy within the secret realm.]

[After a long while, you opened your eyes in disbelief.]

[You discovered a fact: the Immortal Falling Secret Realm had been polluted once again. Although the pollution had not yet reached the level of the outside world, it was only a matter of time.]

[But this time, you had not come to the Immortal Falling Secret Realm at all. When you returned three years ago, the Immortal Falling Secret Realm had still been perfectly fine.]

[Thus, you suspected that the Immortal Falling Secret Realm must have changed during the three years after you returned to the Sword Pavilion.]

[Combined with the previous time, when the change occurred after you came to the Immortal Falling Secret Realm and entered the Bronze Divine Hall, you ruled out the possibility that you were the cause.]

[You recalled that last time, aside from you, only Ye Chuxue and Lin Qi had entered the Immortal Falling Secret Realm.]

[Therefore, you suspected that the problem must lie with Ye Chuxue and Lin Qi.]

[Of course, before confirming that the problem lay with them, you first had to confirm whether they had come to the Immortal Falling Secret Realm during these three years.]

[But returning to Desolate Village now was basically impossible. Pill Sect people were guarding outside.]

[Even with the Great Void Technique, you could not guarantee that they did not have arrays or other methods specifically targeting you.]

[The only thing you could count on now was Gu Xinyue breaking through to the Void Refining Realm.]

["Senior Sister! Is there still a chance to break through to the Void Refining Realm?"]

[You still held onto a sliver of hope. You believed that as long as the spiritual energy was not severely polluted, there should still be a chance.]

[But Gu Xinyue's answer chilled your heart.]

["It's useless. Once spiritual energy is polluted, whether the pollution is severe or slight, breaking through is no different from doing so in the outside world."]

[At this moment, the sounds of the distant battle grew louder and louder.]

["Wan Yemo, you traitor! I never thought you would actually be parasitized just like that!"]
