In the deepest reaches of the dark seabed.
Dugu Qing slowly closed her eyes once more.
Standing beside her, Ji Yuan watched with curiosity. Whenever Dugu Qing performed a divination, she closed her eyes. Could she not use her ability with them open?
A moment later, Dugu Qing opened her eyes, doubt in her expression. "Are you certain there's a Secret Realm here?" Ji Yuan's heart sank halfway at her words.
He already knew the result.
Dugu Qing had not found the entrance either.
During her previous divinations, she had usually announced the result before even opening her eyes. This time was different.
"We're certain."
Dong Qian nodded firmly.
"Then I'll try again."
Dugu Qing closed her eyes once more. The instant she did, her brow furrowed.
This time, even Ji Yuan sensed a strange ripple spreading through the seabed. It was not spiritual power or Divine Soul energy. It seemed more like... a Law?

Even Void Refinement Realm experts who specialize in the Divination Dao can't wield the power of Laws this casually. Ji Yuan had countless questions, but this concerned her secrets. He could hardly ask.

Dong Qian quickly reached out to steady her. "What happened? Are you all right?"
"I'm fine."

"Junior Dugu Qing greets Senior."
"This..."
Ji Yuan stared at her strange behavior in shock.
