After changing her master, she turned to the ruthless way, and the whole sect knelt down

Xie Mingzhu knew many places where treasures were hidden, but she didn't dare to speak out now. After the previous experience in the cave, she had clearly realized that the strength of her group was not enough for her to move freely in the secret realm.

It was also at this time that Xie Mingzhu finally remembered that Princess Luo in her previous life had entered the secret realm with a dozen guards in the Foundation Establishment stage.

Second, Xie Mingzhu had been humiliated by Xie Liuyin and others, so she was unwilling to let these people gain any benefits.

She would wait until Si Yu came to find those opportunities, and then she would take him to look for them.

At that time, Xie Mingzhu can also use this opportunity to declare that she has extraordinary luck, so that Si Yu will value her more.

Xie Mingzhu's thoughts turned, but she didn't show any of her thoughts on her face and continued to follow the main force forward.

Fortunately, Xie Liuyin and others' luck was not that bad. This time they entered a valley and successfully found several jade dew grasses there.

Taking advantage of the Jade Dew Grass, Jiang Shan suggested that everyone should act together and not separate in the secret realm for the time being.

This proposal was unanimously agreed upon by Qiu Yu, Xu You and others. After all, their team was now demoralized, and Tong Wenkang was still seriously injured and had not recovered.

If they really separated from Jiang Shan and his five companions, they didn't know what they would experience next. Even for their own lives, they couldn't separate from Jiang Shan's team.

Xiao Chi had some complaints about this, but no one else paid any attention to what he said.

Only Xie Mingzhu felt more and more annoyed as she listened to his complaints.

"Since we've decided to act together, we need to establish this rule first. If we come across something good in the future, we should grab it first. After we leave the secret realm, we can discuss how to distribute it."

Jiang Shan patiently repeated their team's previous plan, and the others nodded. As for Xiao Chi and Xie Mingzhu's opinions, no one cared.

After this matter was settled, Qiu Yu temporarily collected those not-so-precious Jade Dew Grass plants.

After being in the Juelan Secret Realm for so long, they finally gained some results. Everyone's spirits were lifted, and they immediately followed the direction of the spiritual energy and headed towards the next destination.

They crossed the valley and, guided by spiritual energy, found an icy spring emitting a chilling cold air.

The spring water was a deep icy blue, and a thin layer of mist enveloped the entire spring. A brilliant display of ice crystals formed on the surrounding shores, looking both beautiful and dangerous.

Xie Liuyin immediately noticed the beautiful crimson lotus in the center of the ice spring. After all, the red color was too conspicuous among the ice blue.

"Hiss! Rootless ice spring, red fire lotus. I think that lotus should be the fire lotus recorded in the "Hundred Medicinal Books"!" Jiang Shan couldn't help but shouted.

The thing that could make Jiang Shan so excited must be the elixir that is not inferior to the Rotten Bone Stone Orchid.

Fire Lotus is the main ingredient in refining the Soul Cleansing Pill. This pill is specially used for cultivators who do not have a single spiritual root. It is said that by taking a Soul Cleansing Pill, there is a chance to cleanse away impure spiritual roots.

There was once a cultivator who was lucky enough to obtain a Spirit Cleansing Pill and was able to go from having three spiritual roots to having only one. However, it was also said that some people had all their spiritual roots cleansed away, ultimately becoming mortals unable to cultivate.

But no matter what the rumors outside are, Fire Lotus is an extremely expensive medicinal material in the eyes of alchemists.

After seeing the fire lotus clearly, Xie Mingzhu could hardly control the greed and excitement in his eyes.

She remembered that this fire lotus was obtained by Yan Xiujun of the Sword Holding Sect in her previous life. After they met, Yan Xiujun gave the fire lotus to her, allowing Xie Mingzhu to cleanse one of her spiritual roots and become a genius with two spiritual roots.

Thinking of this, Xie Mingzhu subconsciously looked around, but did not see the familiar figure.

Could it be that Yan Xiujun in this life hasn't had time to find this place yet?

Xie Mingzhu frowned, she was a little worried.

If the Fire Lotus was obtained by someone else, would she still have a chance to wash away one of her spiritual roots?

No one present knew what Xie Mingzhu was thinking. They were now discussing how to get the fire lotus.

"There were monsters guarding the area around the Rotten Bone Stone Orchid before, so it won't be easy to pick the Fire Lotus." Qiu Yu frowned and said worriedly.

In the secret realm, whenever there is a precious treasure, there will be monsters guarding nearby. This is common knowledge in the world of cultivation.

Thinking of the terrifying monsters in the cave before, several people are still frightened.

But the fire lotus before them was so tempting that Xie Liuyin and the others were unwilling to give up.

Xie Liuyin thought about it and offered, "How about this? I'll be the bait and try to pick the fire lotus. If there really is a monster under the ice spring, the moment it appears, we'll all attack together to attract its attention. Once I pick the fire lotus, we'll retreat immediately and not fight to the death."

"No!" Jiang Shan was the first to object. "How can we let you, Junior Master, take such a big risk?"

Xie Liuyin said with reason, "You all know my strength. If a monster attacks, and even I can't escape, then you certainly can't escape either."

This is very true and sharp.

Qiu Yu and Jiang Shan, who were saved by their junior uncle who had lower cultivation than them, looked at each other and saw embarrassment in each other's eyes.

"Besides, I have learned agile body movements and footwork. When it comes to escaping, you are no match for me." Xie Liuyin continued to explain.

She made this decision after careful consideration.

Qiu Yu is not the type to take risks, so Xie Liuyin is really worried about letting her be the bait.

However, Jiang Shan's movements were not flexible enough and his speed was not as fast as his own.

Xie Liuyin had discovered this as early as yesterday in the cave.

Xie Liuyin had said so much, Qiu Yu and Jiang Shan really couldn't find an excuse to refuse, and they really wanted the Fire Lotus.

However, before Xie Liuyin could take action, Qiu Yu stopped her and gave her the soft armor that Tong Wenkang had previously lent her.

"Master Junior, be careful!" Qiu Yu gave a final reminder.

Xie Liuyin nodded at her, then put on soft armor, drew out the Mo Que sword, casually performed a light body technique, and flew towards the red lotus in the center of the ice spring.

The ice spring was not big, and in just a few breaths, Xie Liuyin had already flown above the fire lotus.

Just as she was about to reach out to pick the lotus, a powerful and murderous aura suddenly attacked from under Xie Liuyin.

At that moment, alarm bells rang in Xie Liuyin's mind. She didn't care about the lotus at all. "Ghost Tracking" and "Wind Without Trace" started running instantly, allowing Xie Liuyin to change positions quickly.

The next second, several icicles flew out, brushing past Xie Liuyin's toes.

At the same time, the originally calm ice spring suddenly boiled, and an ice-blue monster slowly poked its head out.
