The difficult path of cultivation for a grassroots female practitioner

Shocked, Xiao Han forgot that his superior was beside him, and excitedly piloted his flying sword towards Ye Qi and Qiu Yinong in the distance.

Over the years, Xiao Han had always believed deep down in his heart that these two good friends must have died long ago.

Otherwise, it would be impossible that there has been no news for more than 30 years.

After all, they are just independent cultivators who have just successfully established their foundation. When they go out, the risk of dying is actually very high.

Whenever I think of it, I can’t help but feel sad and sigh.

I never thought that after so many years, the two good friends would actually appear from the misty forest.

"Ye Qi, Yi Nong."

Xiao Han shouted at the two of them in surprise and flew towards them on his sword.

Two monks flew out of the misty forest below, and this movement had already attracted the attention of high-level monks.

At this moment, Xiao Han moved again and shouted loudly. All the cultivators who were originally looking at the vortex in the sky turned their eyes to these three people.

However, at this moment, the three of them were all immersed in the joy of reuniting with their friends and completely ignored the gazes of those high-level monks.

As for Ye Qi and Qiu Yinong, after they fell into the Misty Forest, they initially thought of making marks and slowly finding their way out. However, there were still many high-level monsters in the Misty Forest.

After they finally escaped from a sixth-level monster, they didn't dare to rush around anymore.

Later, he simply found a suitable cave to stay in for a long time, and planned to try to find a way out when he reached the late stage of foundation building.

However, while the concentration of spiritual energy in the Misty Forest was decent, it was nothing compared to the spiritual energy in the cave Xiao Han had previously rented, which cost 20,000 spirit stones a month. Therefore, over the years, the two of them had only just reached the middle stage of foundation building.

The days in the misty forest were hard to endure, but fortunately the two of them stayed together the whole time, could talk to relieve boredom, and encourage each other, so they were able to persevere.

At first, the two were completely unaware of the strange phenomenon in the misty forest. It was not until they noticed that the fog around them began to thin out, allowing their vision and spiritual sense to perceive farther, that they realized something serious had happened.

At first, the two did not dare to move around. It was not until the fog became thinner and they could vaguely see a huge vortex in the sky that they could no longer hold back and flew up.

Neither of them had expected that after they had just flown high into the sky and discovered a large number of high-level cultivators with terrifying spiritual pressure, they would suddenly see an old acquaintance.

"Xiao Han!"

"Xiao Han."

The three of them gathered together, feeling very excited. For a moment, they didn't know what to ask each other first.

It was Xiao Han who asked first, "Have you two been in the Misty Forest all these years?"

Ye Qi and Qiu Yinong had never heard of the name Misty Forest before, but when they heard it this time, they immediately understood it.

Ye Qi said, "The fog in this forest hinders spiritual consciousness. Entering it is like entering a maze. We two accidentally entered this place after leaving Xinyue City and have been trapped here ever since."

Qiu Yinong asked, "Xiao Han, why are you here? And what's going on with that strange phenomenon in the sky?"

Xiao Han briefly explained the matter of the Loose Cultivator Alliance, and then said, "Let's go over there. The Alliance Leader and the Elders are over there. You two will follow us later."

Secret realms have always been places for finding good things and obtaining opportunities. Since the two friends have been trapped here for many years, perhaps this secret realm is their opportunity.

Ye Qi and Qiu Yinong naturally had no objection and flew over with Xiao Han.

When he arrived in front of Xie Yi and Mi Rui, Xiao Han told them their identities and how they had been trapped in the misty forest for many years and had only just escaped today.

Then the two of them performed the junior’s respect to a Nascent Soul cultivator and a Golden Core cultivator.

Xie Yi nodded slightly, and Mi Rui smiled and told the two of them not to be polite.

At this time, disciples from the Juxian Sect continued to arrive, and several foundation-building managers from the Loose Cultivator Alliance also came.

While these people went to see the leader and the elders, Xiao Han quietly led the two of them back a little, then cast a soundproofing shield and started talking again.

The two learned about the benefits of joining the Loose Cultivator Alliance. In addition, Xiao Han seemed to have a high status in the alliance, so they both said that they would also join the Loose Cultivator Alliance after returning from here.

So many years have passed, and Qiu Yinong no longer has any hope of finding out the truth behind her cousin He Yanling's disappearance.

In the long journey of immortality, countless cultivators have died early, and this is also something that cannot be helped.

Xiao Han suddenly thought of something. The two of them had been trapped in the misty forest for many years and they certainly had nothing to defend themselves with. She wondered if this secret realm would be very dangerous.

Recalling the contents of his storage bag, he took out a stack of talismans and said, "I don't know what will happen in this secret realm later. You two can share these talismans. They will be useful at least."

Ye Qi didn't refuse. He took it and gave half to Qiu Yinong, saying with a smile, "Over the years, we have also collected some refining materials and spiritual herbs from monsters. After we return to Xinyue City and sell them, we will return them to you."

Qiu Yinong also nodded in agreement.

Xiao Han also joked, "There's no need to wait until we get back to sell the monster materials. Maybe you'll get lucky in the secret realm and get a lot of good stuff. Then maybe I can get some of that too."

As he spoke, he took out a few bottles of commonly used pills and distributed them to the two of them.

The magic weapons on her were all what she needed, and there were no extra ones, so I could only give her some talismans and pills.

Ye Qi and Qiu Yinong also accepted it. This was something they urgently needed, so why bother being so hypocritical? They could just pay it back double later anyway.

Come to think of it, there's really nothing decent about them.

The only magic weapon they had was their respective flying swords. They had not prepared much other auxiliary items, and they had all been used up over the years.

Actually, venturing into an unfamiliar secret realm was a very dangerous thing. But seeing that the secret realm was about to open, the two of them were extremely reluctant to leave at this time.

However, the three of them did not expect that the strange phenomenon in the sky would last for three days and remain the same.

At this time, there were already a huge crowd of monks surrounding the secret realm.

The main reason was that the spread of this strange scene was too fast. Not only did many Foundation Establishment cultivators and high-level cultivators above the Foundation Establishment level from the nearby Xingyao City come, but also some well-informed cultivators from other immortal cities came using the teleportation array.

Then some Qi-cultivating monks from Crescent Moon City also came to join in the fun.

As a result, there were monks everywhere in the sky and on the earth.

Xie Yi and the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Juxian Sect went to check out the vortex after a while, but no one knew when the entrance to this secret realm would be stabilized.

Another two days passed, and more monks came to watch after hearing the news.

Some people simply found an open space in the forest below and started setting up stalls to sell things or to exchange what they had with others.

Seeing this, Ye Qi and Qiu Yinong naturally went over and used the monster materials they had accumulated to exchange for some things they needed.

Then it wasn't until the tenth day that the vortex in the sky finally turned into a stable black hole.

Those high-level monks who had been looking forward to it immediately began to test what kind of secret realm this was.
