Chapter 64

<Previous Chapter<Table of Contents>Next Chapter>

Just now standing outside the secret realm, one could only see the upper-middle part of the Guanzhi Mountain. Therefore, at first glance, Li Fenglan felt that the mountain looked like a huge snow mountain.

However, when he actually arrived here, he knew that at the foot of the Guanzhi Mountain, it was a year-round spring-like scene.

When Li Fenglan realized this, he found himself standing on a grassy field.

The grass grew extremely high and was now gently lying on the ground. Stepping on it was like stepping on a soft and delicate woolen carpet.

Li Fenglan suddenly stood here and almost lost his balance. But before he could fall backward with inertia, the person who had been holding him tightly slowly pulled him forward.

Ling Buyan held Li Fenglan tighter…

“Gu-gu…” The golden bird hidden in Li Fenglan’s hair felt a bit embarrassed and turned its gaze away from the scene.

As for Cheng Huang, who had been held in Li Fenglan’s arms all along, it now felt like a little dumpling that was about to burst.

Li Fenglan and Ling Buyan stood still on the grassy field, and Li Fenglan’s hand lightly rested on Ling Buyan’s shoulder. He was slightly shorter than Ling Buyan, and his gaze fell on the latter’s chin.

Li Fenglan didn’t know what expression Ling Buyan had on his face now, nor did he know what to do with his hand. He could only feel the slight trembling of Ling Buyan’s shoulder under his palm.

Although he couldn’t see Ling Buyan’s expression, it was obvious that his mood was definitely not calm at the moment.

Time passed, and it wasn’t until Cheng Huang, who had been held in Li Fenglan’s embrace, couldn’t hold back any longer that he lightly patted Li Fenglan with its paw.

“Fenglan…um, where are we now?” Cheng Huang’s words finally broke the long-lasting silence. Li Fenglan’s hand quickly fell from Ling Buyan’s shoulder, and he took several steps back.

Li Fenglan’s movement was too fast, and Duan Wannian, who had been hiding on his shoulder, was thrown off, and Cheng Huang also leaped out of his embrace.

“Ah! Cheng Huang is so stupid!” Fortunately, Duan Wannian flapped her wings just in time, otherwise she would have fallen to the ground.

After stabilizing her figure in the air, Duan Wannian turned her head and mocked Cheng Huang.

If this were in the past, Cheng Huang would definitely retort. But now… seeing the expressions of his master and Ling Buyan, Cheng Huang finally felt that he had really done something wrong…

Li Fenglan didn’t dare to look at Ling Buyan.

Ling Buyan seemed to be trying to pretend that nothing had happened, and he turned his gaze towards the grassland.

Li Fenglan didn’t speak. After a few moments, it was Ling Buyan who explained to Cheng Huang, “This is the interior of Guanzhi Mountain.”

“Ah…” Cheng Huang weakly called out, burying his head in the grass.

“Ahem,” Li Fenglan cleared his throat. He pretended to be calm and thought for a moment before saying to Ling Buyan, “I didn’t know that Guanzhi Mountain’s secret realm is so large… where should we go to find Mo Shenyu?”

Unlike other people who came here with the intention of finding some opportunity, Li Fenglan and Ling Buyan came to Guanzhi Mountain to see what Mo Shenyu had in his gourd.

Upon hearing this, Ling Buyan finally turned his gaze back. He thought for a moment and said to Li Fenglan, “Generally speaking, people who have just entered the secret realm are in the dense forest at the foot of the mountain. Although I don’t know the exact location of Mo Shenyu, I can roughly guess it.” After speaking, Ling Buyan smiled.

“How do you guess?” Li Fenglan asked curiously.

He knew that his master had been to Guanzhi Mountain once before and must know more about this secret realm than an ordinary person.

Ling Buyan replied, “The secret realm of Guanzhi Mountain emphasizes the principle of mutual generation and mutual restraint. Generally, all cultivators who enter the secret realm of Guanzhi Mountain will be sent to a place where the aura is just right to restrain them.”

“But the place where we are doesn’t seem to be like that,” Li Fenglan frowned.

The location where Li Fenglan and Ling Buyan were now was too peaceful and normal.

“Yes,” Ling Buyan smiled and said to Li Fenglan, “The location we are currently in is actually at the center of the first level of this secret realm.”

Li Fenglan, Ling Buyan, Duan Wannian, and Cheng Huang all entered the secret realm at the same time. Their auras were completely different and all of them were very powerful, so the secret realm couldn’t make a judgment and had to send them to the very center.

Unlike other places in the secret realm that were dominated by a certain spiritual energy or attribute, this area was in a state of balance.

“I see,” Li Fenglan believed that Ling Buyan did it on purpose. He had already learned about this “attribute” of the Guanzhi Mountain Secret Realm!

“Wow…” Even Duan Wannian couldn’t help but exclaim after hearing Ling Buyan’s explanation.

“Mo Shenyu has a fire elemental spirit root, so the secret realm must have sent him to the place with the most water,” Ling Buyan said.

In other words, they just needed to follow the place with the strongest water and they should be able to find Mo Shenyu.

…

The Guanzhi Mountain Secret Realm was much larger than Li Fenglan had imagined, and they couldn’t fly on their swords inside the secret realm. They walked for several hours and still hadn’t seen any signs of people.

As a cultivator, Li Fenglan wouldn’t feel tired from walking in the secret realm, but after several hours, he couldn’t help but say, “I don’t know why, but we’ve been walking in the secret realm for half a day and haven’t encountered a single cultivator, nor have we seen any savage beasts or traps.”

Li Fenglan had never been to the Guanzhi Mountain Secret Realm, but he had been to many other secret realms. In his impression, the secret realm shouldn’t be so calm…

Especially Guanzhi Mountain, which was known as the most dangerous secret realm in the world.

“Gugugu!” After hearing Li Fenglan’s words, Duan Wannian, who had been idly sitting on his shoulder, couldn’t help but nod her head.

“Ahem…” Ling Buyan cleared his throat and said, “I’ve been here once before. Today, I deliberately took you on a safer path.”

Li Fenglan: ???

He knew that his master was powerful, but he never imagined that Ling Buyan had actually memorized all the paths inside this secret realm.

“In fact, we have passed by many dangerous places just now, we just avoided them all. Most of the other cultivators who enter the secret realm are in those places,” Ling Buyan said calmly.

So that’s how it is!

Generally speaking, a secret realm will open twice in a short period of time — once for people to enter, and once for people to exit. If a cultivator enters the secret realm but misses the time to exit, they will be stranded inside until the next time the secret realm opens and they can leave.

Guanzhi Mountain’s secret realm only opens once every hundred years… Thinking of this, Li Fenglan couldn’t help but wonder if Ling Buyan had been here for hundreds of years.

He felt that his speculation was very likely to be true!

Because of the strange atmosphere between Li Fenglan and Ling Buyan after the embrace just now, they didn’t speak for a while. It wasn’t until Li Fenglan brought up the topic of the secret realm that they finally returned to their usual way of interacting.

Cheng Huang, who was being held in Li Fenglan’s arms, couldn’t help but raise its head to look at its master, and then obediently lay on Li Fenglan’s shoulder. As a fierce beast, it didn’t have as many thoughts as a human, but as a several thousand-year-old Cheng Huang, it could still sense that its master was different from before.

In his previous life, when it met Li Fenglan, he was in his most miserable state. At that time, Li Fenglan was always cautious when facing the world. Although he trusted Ning Qingmo before, he was soon betrayed by the latter, and then began to doubt everything around him… Most importantly, Li Fenglan was not happy at all at that time.

But everything had changed after a thousand years.

When facing problems, Li Fenglan remained cautious, but the phrase “cautious and careful” was no longer associated with him.

Most importantly, he wasn’t even aware of how much trust he had in Ling Buyan, to a terrifying extent.

Even in his previous life when he was inexperienced, Li Fenglan had never trusted anyone so much in a secret realm.

Although Cheng Huang, the savage beast, didn’t understand why. In the world of savage beasts, things were simple, just like their predecessors who only remembered fighting and killing. In Cheng Huang’s world, there was only his master and various types of spiritual energy and food.

Despite being in the most dangerous secret realm, Li Fenglan and Ling Buyan walked and chatted inside as if they were on a leisurely outing.

However, this atmosphere didn’t last long. It was interrupted by a giant creature that fell from the sky.

Li Fenglan was chatting with Ling Buyan about the many dangers in the Guanzhi Mountain secret realm. After listening to Ling Buyan’s introduction, Li Fenglan couldn’t help but say, “It’s hard to connect what we’re walking through now with what Master described.”

Just as Li Fenglan finished speaking, there was a loud noise, and a black object suddenly fell from the sky and landed right at his feet.

As a sword cultivator, Li Fenglan’s hand was even faster than his eyes.

The next moment the object landed, a long sword appeared in his hand.

However, Li Fenglan didn’t strike with the sword. He frowned and said, “Is this a person?”

At that moment, the person who had fallen from the sky was lying on the ground, as if he were verifying what Ling Buyan had just said. The black robe on his body was already mostly stained with blood.

Li Fenglan bent down to check his wounds, but before he could act, the person slowly turned around. He coughed up a mouthful of blood and then excitedly grabbed Li Fenglan’s sleeve with his bloodstained hand.

“Master, why are you here!”

That’s right… The person who appeared in front of Li Fenglan with serious injuries is none other than his rebel disciple, Meng Linzhou.

Author’s note: As a disciple, it is natural to frequently prepare some surprises for the master…
