Chapter 34 The danger in the secret realm of Qingning
"So, you haven't met Ning Chenhao?"
The task of collecting lotus leaves was given to the alchemy cultivator Yan Xi, and the others began to exchange their experiences during the past few days when they entered the secret realm.
Ming Yiqian shook his head, looking a little worried.
Hua Wanzhao thought about it for a moment. The novel only said that Ning Chenhao obtained the natal sword of the Ten Thousand Years Sword Master in the center of the secret realm. What excuse should he find now to let them go to the center of the secret realm together?
Mu Lin smiled calmly and glanced at Hua Wanzhao, and said: "The monks who enter the Qingning Secret Realm have only two purposes. One is the lotus leaf that cannot be seen in the outside world, and the other is the legendary ten thousand years ago in the center of the secret realm.
The inheritance of the Sword Master."
"Uncle Yushi, what you mean is that Junior Brother Ning went to the center of the secret realm?"
"According to what the young master said, she should have fallen into the desert forest after entering the secret realm, which is a terrain relatively far away from Youlan Valley. Now that the young master has arrived, he has not arrived yet, so I can only think so.
.”
Ming Yiqian didn't want to believe that his junior brother was someone who didn't care about his fellow students.
Hua Wanzhao said: "Maybe he was tripped up by something, or maybe he was involved in it from the beginning and couldn't get out."
Mu Linxiao didn't tell her apart, after all, Hua Wanzhao was still angry with Mu Linxiao.
Suddenly, a not-so-pleasant curse came from not far away: "Which sect's idiot actually pulled out the phantom flower in Youlan Valley!"
"This is bad!"
"Run!"
"It's the illusion of the phantom flower that's coming!"
The surrounding area exploded instantly. React quickly and immediately take out your flying magic weapon or sword and leave.
Hua Wanzhao had never heard of this before and was still confused.
Mu Linxiao's reaction was not slow, but their location was too close to the center of Youlan Valley, and they immediately entered the illusionary range of the Phantom Flower.
A thick fog quickly filled the entire Youlan Valley, and anyone who had no time to escape was pulled into the illusion.
Mu Linxiao grabbed Hua Wanzhao's hand for the first time, but when he looked back, what he was grabbing was Hua Wanzhao!
Cursing secretly, the unknown vine in his hand was instantly burned to ashes.
Hua Wanzhao was pulled into the illusion in a confused state. When she came back to her senses, she saw modern high-rise buildings and busy traffic in front of her eyes.
In an instant, Hua Wanzhao returned to her modern home.
In the living room, my father, whose face is blurred, is watching TV, and in the kitchen, my mother's busy back is seen.
Seeing Hua Wanzhao walking out of the room, "Father" patted the sofa beside him affectionately: "Your mother has cut the watermelon for you, and your favorite variety show will start soon."
"No, that's not right..."
Her parents divorced when she was eight years old, and then they reorganized their families, and she has been living with her grandparents.
Hua Wanzhao backed away and shook his head.
However, the next second, Hua Wanzhao's feet were empty, and her whole body fell rapidly.
There was the sound of strong wind in my ears, and from time to time there would be a black shadow or fragments of unknown objects falling around me.
Was this...the plane crash at that time?
Has she returned to the present day?
No, this is impossible!
If it was a plane crash at that time, why was my consciousness so clear? At such a high altitude, people should suffocate due to lack of oxygen and fall into a coma!
It's a fantasy!
Hua Wanzhao remembers that before the fog started, someone shouted "The Fantasy of Phantom Flowers".
Knowing what was going on, Hua Wanzhao took out her long sword and slashed hard in all directions.
The barrier of the illusion was easier to break than she expected, and it only took one sword to split the illusion.
Now, Hua Wanzhao's sword was being held in Mu Lin's hand with a smile.
"Little Master reacts very quickly."
Hua Wanzhao wanted to withdraw the sword, but Mu Linxiao refused to let go.
Seeing Hua Wanzhao like this, Mu Linxiao took out the pendant and hung it on the blade of the sword: "It's me who is stateless, little master, please don't be angry, okay?"
Hua Wanzhao didn't say anything.
She is not an unreasonable person. This person robbed her things for no reason. Even if he comes back now, there is no guarantee that he has some bad intentions secretly.
Because of system tasks, she also knew not to make too much trouble.
"This thick fog is formed by the root system that remains underground after the Phantom Flower is uprooted. It is not difficult to get rid of, but people who are trapped in the illusion of the fog can only get out of the illusion on their own."
"Oh," Hua Wanzhao said calmly, "It seems you have a way to dispel it."
Mu Lin asked with a smile: "I have a way, but if I don't do it right, the Youlan Valley where the lotus leaves grow will be destroyed. It's best to find someone with wood spirit roots to do it."
Hua Wanzhao:……
Putting aside Hua Wanzhao's personal opinions on Mu Linxiao, if what Mu Linxiao said is true, then the risk of doing so is indeed very high. The first thing to face is the blame of hundreds of immortal families for the destruction of Youlan Valley.
But now, where are they going to find a Mulinggen monk?
"Hokutosha's brother and sister were also involved in the fog."
"You mean, Li Muhan's sister who was born with a wood spirit body?"
This is indeed a good idea.
The two began to search in the thick fog.
Walking through thick fog with visibility less than three meters is really not a good experience. Although her spiritual consciousness can be used, it is greatly restricted. To be fair, if Mu Linxiao hadn't been by her side, she would probably have walked in circles.
In the process of searching for people, they found Yan Xi who was still trapped in the illusion, Gong Linglong who was frustrated by the illusion, and several unknown disciples of small sects.
These people followed behind and formed a string of little tails. Even the unconscious Yan Xi was left to them to carry on Mu Linxiao's back.
Seeing the black shadow not far away, someone said happily: "There is someone in front again!"
As he got closer, Hua Wanzhao saw that he was an acquaintance.
"Li Muhan."
Then, the one next to him looks exactly like him, but the one who is softer should be Li Munuan.
She held her forehead with her hand, her eyes were a little hazy, and she looked like she had just escaped from the illusion.
"Flower...fellow Taoist."
Thinking of Hua Wanzhao's body, Li Muhan is still a little confused.
"The details are like this..."
Hua Wanzhao and Li Muhan explained the cause of the phantom illusion and the current situation that requires Li Munuan's help to break it.
"I understand, Ah Nuan, can it be done?" Li Muhan asked.
Li Munuan nodded: "I'll try."
Unlike Li Muhan, who is cold and cold, Li Munuan lives up to his name, and his voice is soft and gentle.
The two of them followed Mu Linxiao to the place where the phantom flower originally grew. They encountered several spiritual beasts along the way, but they were all killed by Mu Linxiao.
"Didn't you say that Qingning Secret Realm is very safe?" Hua Wanzhao asked.
Mu Linxiao wiped the blood off the sword with a handkerchief, and pointedly said: "Safety is only a relative term. What's more, something happened when entering the secret realm this time. There is no guarantee that no unknown changes will occur in the secret realm."
Li Mu Nuan also said: "As soon as I entered the secret realm, I felt that the spiritual plants here were a little irritable, as if they were afraid of something and dared not speak out when they were angry."
Looking at the fist-sized pit under her feet, Hua Wanzhao asked, "What should we do now?"
"Just leave it to Master Li's nephew."
Li Munuan squatted down, touched the ground with one hand, and slowly penetrated the spiritual power into the ground.
After a while, Hua Wanzhao felt that the ground beneath her feet seemed to be slowly shaking, and thin threads poked out from the ground.
Hua Wanzhao asked: "Is this the root system of the Phantom Flower left underground?"
Mu Lin smiled and said casually: "The little master has finally calmed down?"
Hua Wanzhao sneered: "I will find Master when I return to the sect."
Mu Lin smiled and raised his eyebrows, but what he said was another matter: "This fog covers a large area, and it will probably take a long time to clean it up."
With that said, Mu Linxiao took out a few top-quality spiritual stones and set up a spirit gathering array around Li Munuan to help Li Munuan recover her spiritual power.
Li Muhan said respectfully: "Thank you so much, Zhenjun."
