Within the Heaven-Gazing Secret Realm, fortuitous opportunity abound, but it is also extremely dangerous.
Quite some time has passed since the opening of the Heaven-Gazing Secret Realm.
Many cultivators were either focused on their journey or vying for treasures.
Within the secret realm, streaks of light flashed from time to time, streaking across the clouds above and piercing the rainbows. Powerful auras permeated the entire area, rivaling even those of the Saint Realm.
As a result, cultivators with weaker cultivation levels became even more cautious.
They were afraid that they might accidentally offend someone they couldn't afford to offend.
That's the mindset of the Fang Household.
As members of Azure Wave City, the Qin Household and Zhang Household have already entered the Heaven-Gazing Secret Realm, so how could the Fang Household miss this opportunity?
However, after entering the secret realm, most of the members were scattered.
The secret realm has limited area.
Beyond a certain range, even the most advanced communication Law Artifact cannot make contact.
Therefore, like Purple Firmament Palace, only a few disciples gathered together.
The disciples of Ximu Peak of the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect were less fortunate; only a group of new disciples and one old disciple successfully reunited.
Qin Meier was considered lucky; she managed to meet with the fourth elder of the Qin Household, preventing her from having a too miserable time in the secret realm.
The Fang Household, however, can be considered extremely lucky.
Fang Xing, Fang Yuan, Fang Zhenyu, Fang Yu, and their group were quite lucky. When they entered the Heaven-Gazing Secret Realm, they landed in roughly the same locations, successfully contacted each other, and gathered together.
After they entered the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect, they were all taken in by the same elder, so naturally they were on the same peak. As fellow disciples of the Fang Household, regardless of their previous relationship, they didn't have any major conflicts.
Moreover, the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect is not like Azure Wave City. No matter who you are, you must restrain your past arrogance and act cautiously here, lest you die without even knowing how.
In Azure Wave City, they might be considered geniuses.
But within the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect, they could only say they were nothing.
Even among them, Fang Xing, who has the best talent, wouldn't be considered outstanding within the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect.
Needless to say, the others are even less likely to be included.
Now that they have entered the Heaven-Gazing Secret Realm, they are lucky to have gathered together. Compared to others, they are all from the Fang Household, so they naturally have some trust in each other, but they are still walking cautiously.
"Are we still unable to contact the rest of the Fang Household, or anyone else within the sect?"
The surrounding area was a desolate wasteland with black soil, and withered old trees and skeletons appeared from time to time. The concentration of Spiritual Qi in the area was also extremely low, which made Fang Xing frown.
He asked Fang Liqiu beside him, his gaze falling on the valley not far away.
The valley was the only hill in their vicinity, nestled between two mountains, with a valley path running in front of them in the direction they were traveling.
Besides that, there was nothing nearby.
These two mountains are not small.
If we were to go around it, it would probably take quite a bit of time.
Within the Heaven-Gazing Secret Realm, the exploration time is inherently short.
Before long, the time wasted was almost equal to the time available for exploration.
only...
Looking at the valley from afar, Fang Xing was somewhat unsure of what to do.
His level of understanding, relatively speaking, is not very high.
Within the Heaven-Gazing Secret Realm, there were still restrictions everywhere. Even though he was a cultivator, he couldn't see clearly what was inside the valley from his vantage point, as his Divine Sense was completely blocked outside the valley.
This also added a touch of worry to his heart.
This worry stemmed not only from his unease about the current situation, but also from the fact that he had gradually accumulated this feeling after coming to the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect and interacting with other disciples within the sect.
Elder Gong stayed in Azure Wave City for a period of time.
Before the opening of the Heaven-Gazing Secret Realm, he led this group of Fang Household disciples back to the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect.
Fang Xing didn't spend much time interacting with other sect disciples.
But even in that short time, it was enough for him to realize that his talent was simply not enough within the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect.
Let alone becoming True Disciple, even becoming Direct Disciple is a long road ahead.
Here, among the entire Fang Household, he is the only one who can be considered outstanding.
Unfortunately, it's still far from enough.
It should be understood that even among the most outstanding talents, there are differences.
During this trip to the secret realm, after entering the Heaven-Gazing Secret Realm, he contacted the people around him. However, they were all disciples, and all of them were young. Their strength was naturally questionable and there was no guarantee of anything. Naturally, he hoped that he could contact other people in the sect or other elders of the Fang Household.
Unfortunately...
Fang Liqiu gently shook her head.
"No."
"The distance is too far, we can't get in touch with them at all."
The girl who once argued fiercely with Qin Meier was now completely subdued within the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect.
Her attire was as simple and aloof as ever, with a hint of anxiety in her eyes. She took a deep breath and looked at the other members of her tribe around her, feeling even more agitated.
What can just a few of them do?
Even if you find some incredible fortuitous opportunity, it's useless; you can't protect it at all.
This is really bad...
Speaking of which...
I wonder how Qin Meier is doing.
In a moment of distraction, Fang Liqiu subconsciously thought of his old rival, which brought him a sense of comfort in this uneasy moment.
After all, she had entered the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect, a top-tier sect, not just a so-called first-rate sect.
At least, she won this round.
Even though she doesn't have much of a temper within the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect, that's only in the eyes of the people from the four major sects. To outsiders, whether it's her or the others here, she's still considered an extraordinary prodigy.
In fact, it could be said that her status was now far more noble than before.
As the eldest daughter of the Fang Household family, she and her younger brother Fang Yuan both entered the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect. Her fiancé is also Direct Disciple of a peak in the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect.
It could be said that Fang Liqiu considered herself a complete winner in life.
Now, everything is going according to her wishes, and their lineage's status in the Fang Household has risen even higher. There couldn't be anything better.
In contrast, Qin Meier...
Thinking of his old rival, Fang Liqiu's lips relaxed slightly, and a smile appeared on his face.
She inquired about Qin Meier's current situation.
Fengyang Sect.
A mere first-rate sect cannot compare to a top-tier sect like the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect, one of the four major sects.
Moreover, Fengyang Sect only has one Great Saint.
It was a breakthrough achieved in recent years.
What about the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect?
Five in total!
There's absolutely no comparison...
Recalling these events, Fang Liqiu's gaze fell on Fang Xing in white, and almost unconsciously, she remembered what happened at the Qin Household pavilion that day.
Speaking of which...
I wonder where that Rogue Cultivator is now.
Could it be that he really became Qin Meier's son-in-law?
laugh...
This was the first time Fang Liqiu, the young lady of the Fang family, had been rejected like this.
hateful.
I wonder if he would still have that arrogant attitude if he knew that I had now joined the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect.
Oh!
