Bring a scumbag girl to bully me, and you are afraid of using modern weapons.

"In that case, let's go now." Zhong Lixiao said as he stood up. "As for Yuan'er, he will stay here to practice for a while. When the ancient realm opens, he will also go there."

"I understand!" Xie Jinglan followed him out of the room and closed the door.

Since they came to the Nangong family, none of the people who originally stayed in the space came out, and the people in the Nangong family were unaware of their existence.

Now they are leaving, and it is just the master and the disciple alone.

Zhongli Xiao seemed to have already said goodbye to the Nangong family and went straight out the gate with Xie Jinglan.

After leaving the Nangong residence, Xie Jinglan couldn't help but ask curiously, "Master, your grandmother is still alive, so why haven't you met the Nangong family's parents?"

With the strength of the Nangong family, if nothing unexpected happens, they will have no problem living for one or two thousand years if they practice well.

"They have all gone into seclusion to practice. The ultimate goal of people in the Middle World is to cultivate and become immortals. As long as it is not related to the survival of the family, they generally will not show up, just like the elders in the sect." Zhong Lixiao told her.

"So that's how it is!" Xie Jinglan thought of the old men in Xuan Ji Sect. They usually hid themselves to practice and only came out when Linggun Mountain was almost destroyed.

It turns out that the process of cultivating immortality is so lonely and long. Years of seclusion and practice, isolated from the world, may lead to longevity.

But she thought, what's the point of living like this?

If one could finally ascend to immortality, it would be worth it. But what if one couldn't? Wouldn't one simply die in that hidden cave?

Her thoughts involuntarily drifted back to the mysterious forbidden area behind Linggun Mountain, and the thousands of corpses neatly arranged in the ice cave, like ancient sculptures that had been sleeping for thousands of years.

She doesn't want to live such a meaningless life.

After I find my mother, if I can't stay here anymore, I will go back to Guangyuan Continent to live, spend time with my family, get married and have children, and live a meaningful life.

********

Central Continent.

Today is the day when the ancient realm of Biluo Valley is opened. Led by several great elders, a group of disciples of Taixu Sect came to a deserted valley with a radius of a thousand miles.

The entrance to the secret realm was already crowded with people and noisy. There were also people flying in the sky, as if all the cultivators in the world had gathered here.

Xie Jinglan opened her magical eyes and searched for Beitang Yuan in the crowd.

Before coming, they had already used the voice stone to video chat and agreed to meet here.

"The secret realm will be opened in half a quarter of an hour. After you go in, don't separate to avoid danger or having your things stolen by others." The elder reminded them again.

"We understand!" the disciples responded one after another.

The Great Elder's gaze fell on Xie Jinglan, with a hint of worry in his eyes. "Girl Lan, you have a magic sword on you, so you must be on guard against those with ill intentions."

"Don't worry, Great Elder. I will be careful." Xie Jinglan said.

"We will protect our junior sister." Liang Yang and other disciples also reassured him.

"Yes." The Great Elder nodded with relief.

More and more people gathered in the valley, and there were bursts of discussions in my ears. Some were guessing what kind of peerless treasures and secrets were hidden in this secret realm, while others were sharing their own cultivation experiences.

The atmosphere was extremely warm and everyone was filled with anticipation and excitement.

"Lan'er, I'm late." A figure flew in front of her.

Beitang Yuan is here.

Today he was wearing a black robe with gold edges, his long hair like a waterfall was half tied up, and he wore a silver and emerald hair crown on his head. Coupled with his enchantingly handsome face, he exuded an elegant and aloof aura.

"Yes, he looks more and more like the young master." Xie Jinglan said with a smile.

"Lan'er, stop laughing at me." Beitang Yuan naturally took her hand.

"Everyone, look up at the sky, what is that?" someone suddenly shouted.

Hearing this, the two of them looked up and saw that in the boundless sky, like calm water being gently blown by a breeze, there were layers of endless ripples.

"That means the door to the secret realm is about to open."

The crowd's exclamations became louder.

At this moment, suddenly a huge and majestic stone gate appeared in the sky as if it had fallen from the sky!

The stone gate exuded a mysterious and ancient atmosphere, as if carrying the vicissitudes and weight of endless years. One could also clearly see various strange patterns and runes carved on it, which seemed to contain some kind of mysterious power and secrets.

Everyone on the ground was staring at the stone door, ready to fly up as soon as it opened.

Because this stone door can only be opened for half a quarter of an hour, it can only be reopened after the three-day trial is over.

If you miss this moment, you will have to wait fifty years!

"Boom..." With a heavy sound, the stone door opened, revealing a deep passage.

"Get in quickly!"

The people on the ground flew towards the stone gate one after another, like flashes of light.

"Let's go up too, everyone follow closely!" Liang Yang said to the disciples, then flashed away.

Beitang Yuan and Xie Jinglan looked at each other, and at the same time, they disappeared in a flash.

Just as they entered the stone door, they suddenly felt a powerful force emerging.

This force was like an invisible vortex, generating a huge suction force, as if an invisible giant hand pulled them in.

"Be careful..." Beitang Yuan's expression changed and he quickly held Xie Jinglan's hand tightly.

Fortunately, the suction quickly disappeared, and the two men fell to the ground, staggering for several steps before they could stand firm.

The two looked up and around, and saw towering ancient trees all around, blocking out the sun, as if they were in a mysterious and ancient primeval forest.

There are thick rotten leaves and mosses under your feet, giving off a damp and decayed smell. In the distance, there is fog, which vaguely outlines the contours of the mountains, giving people a dreamlike feeling.

"Be careful!" Beitang Yuan drew out the sword in his hand, and a cold light flashed.

"Snapped."

Xie Jinglan looked at the ground and found that it was a fiery red poisonous snake that had attacked them. After its head was chopped off by a sword, it actually opened its bloody mouth at them, revealing several hideous fangs, and venom slowly flowed out from the fangs.

"What a strong snake venom."

She originally wanted to let Zhu Yichen and her grandfather out, but seeing that there were unknowns and dangers everywhere in here, it was better not to let them out for the time being!

"We have separated from Liang Yang and the others." Xie Jinglan spread out her spiritual sense and observed the surrounding situation.

At this moment, a green grass with a faint glow came into their sight.

"It's the Tiangang Immortal Grass!" Xie Jinglan was delighted.

Tiangang Immortal Grass can enhance one's magic power and true energy, and can achieve twice the result with half the effort during the practice process. It is best to let grandpa take it.
