Gu Liyue thought: That’s right, the world of immortal cultivation has its own methods.

She held the parchment scroll in one hand and called upon spiritual power with the other, directing the spiritual power to the parchment scroll.

At first, the parchment scroll did not change at all. It was still an ordinary blank parchment scroll.

So it was thrown aside casually.

Gu Liyue said, "Ignore it for now. Let's see what's recorded in these jade slips."

Just when everyone wanted to check the jade slip, the parchment scroll placed aside emitted a faint light.

Then, the faint light was projected into the air, and the image of a female cultivator appeared in the air.

She was wearing an elaborate and gorgeous palace robe and had a gorgeous face.

The female cultivator glanced at the nine people and a look of joy appeared on her face.

"After so many years, someone finally discovered what I left behind."

Gu Liyue asked curiously, "Excuse me, who is this senior?"

"I am Wang Qingqian, a cultivator in the Qingxuan Continent who is in the Tribulation Crossing Stage. Because I failed in my ascension, perhaps I shouldn't have gone through the Tribulation at that time. I still have attachments in the Qingxuan Continent. I thought I had let them go, but I didn't expect them to still be entangled during my ascension. I feel very unwilling to accept it. Why did I fail in my ascension, while he lived a carefree life?"

Listening to Wu Qingqian's endless chatter, everyone had a question in their mind: Uh... if the ascension failed, would it mean a decline in realm or death?

Seeing everyone's obvious doubts, the image continued, "This lord has ended up dead and his spiritual path has been destroyed. This is a trace of his spiritual consciousness left behind. I would like to ask someone with a predestined relationship to help me complete a task."

She pointed to the jade slips on the ground and said, "These are what I have earned in my life. I will give them to you as a reward."

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. A person who had died and disappeared without a trace of spiritual enlightenment still had unfulfilled wishes. What a big deal! It felt a bit dangerous! I wondered if we could just give up these jade slips and not do this for this person.

Gu Liyue looked at everyone and said, "I wonder what the senior wants me to do?"

"It's not a difficult thing to do."

She waved her left hand, and another jade slip appeared on the ground. This jade slip was different from the others, it was actually red.

"Help me deliver this jade slip to a cultivator. I can sense that he is in a nearby city. His last name is Wen, and he specializes in illusionary attacks."

Illusion attack, how high a level of cultivation is needed to perform it, everyone looked hesitant.

"Most of us are young cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, and we may not be able to help you with this matter. We don't want the jade slips anymore, otherwise you can choose someone else!" said Gu Liyue.

Wang Qingqian's face changed, and he raised his left hand. A powerful pressure swept over, and everyone sat on the ground. The heavy pressure on their shoulders made it almost impossible for them to breathe.

This wisp of spiritual consciousness in the Tribulation Period is so strong that everyone knows that they cannot resist it.

Gu Liyue thought: Isn't it said that a wisp of spiritual consciousness can't last too long? Why can this wisp of spiritual consciousness still emit pressure?

"Senior, please let's talk it over. Since you know that Senior Wen is nearby, why don't you go meet him yourself?"

Wang Qingqian withdrew his imposing aura and didn't respond to Gu Liyue's words. He said arrogantly, "If you don't want to help me, then fine, restore my cave at the bottom of the sea and let me wait for my destined person inside."

Nine people: "..." Looks like we've been forced to buy and sell! She must have seen through our inability to restore the cave!

Gu Liyue: "We are also not sure who the person you are looking for is, and where is he?"

Wang Qingqian: "Since you can find my cave, there must be a destiny in the dark, you will find him."

How could one place such an important matter on the vague providence of God? Gu Liyue felt it was unreliable.

Wang Qingqian's expression changed as he spoke: "To prevent you from regretting it, all of you should swear an inner demon oath! After you do so, the restrictions on the jade slips will be lifted, and you will be able to read the contents."

The friends looked at each other and saw Wang Qingqian raise his right hand, as if releasing pressure again.

Seeing that the situation was stronger than they were, the nine people had no choice but to swear an inner demon oath.

He was not very willing in his heart, and even the hand gestures for pinching the magic formula were not quite right.

"You'd better take the oath seriously. I believe you all know how to deal with the current situation." Wang Qingqian's originally clear voice became gloomy.

Everyone couldn't help but cheer up.

Wang Qingqian looked up at the sky, feeling the muffled thunder coming from the sky, and said with a satisfied expression: "I trust you, and I will leave this matter to you."

After saying this, Wang Qingqian disappeared into the air, and the parchment scroll also dimmed.

"If you just trust us, then you don't have to swear an oath." Xiao Ju's face was full of doubts about life. "Oh! This can't be true, right?"

Qiao Zhiwen: "I'm afraid it's not fake."

Nie Hengzhou's expression also turned grim. "The only solution now is to go find Senior Wen, who's skilled in illusionary attacks. She said she's in a nearby city."

Yun Lizhi asked, "Maybe it's in Xiyun City."

Nie Hengzhou: "If I were in Xiyun City, I could ask the elders of Dingshan Sect."

Xiahou Jingrong: "I have made my inner demon vow, and I have no choice but to complete it."

Everyone put away the jade slips. No one had the energy to check the contents inside, and they discussed what to do in the next few days.

"Since we are here, let's not waste it. Let's go to the sea again tomorrow to see if there is anything good to hunt." Xiahou Jingrong said.

Gu Liyue took out the book introducing Liuli Island and asked everyone to take a look to see if there were any sea beasts they wanted to hunt.

Gu Liyue said, "The book says there's a forest on this Liuli Island called Liuli Forest. It's on the south side of the island. Why don't we go there and take a look? I want to see if there are any spiritual herbs here."

Everyone agreed.

The next morning, everyone packed up and headed south.

Because the monks who come to the island are all here to hunt sea beasts, there are very few monks coming to the Glazed Forest.

When they arrived at the Glazed Forest, Gu Liyue felt that the trees here were tall and the spiritual herbs were growing lushly and strong. As soon as they entered the forest, she and Qiao Zhiwen were busy digging spiritual herbs.

They dug as they went, and others helped.

As soon as Xiaoxuan arrived in the woods, it felt like it was back home. It flew around in the woods and felt that there were not many monsters here, or they were all hiding in the caves and did not come out.

The group walked into the woods while digging spiritual herbs.

Gradually, a mist seemed to rise in the forest. Xiao Xuan flew over and said, "Liyue, I just felt something was wrong. It seemed too quiet around here. I couldn't hear any birds, and I didn't see many demon beasts."

Gu Liyue listened to Xiaoxuan's words and quickly said to her friends, "Something's not right. Everyone, be alert. There might be some powerful monster lurking around."

Everyone summoned their weapons and watched the fog grow thicker. Li Xiuyuan threw out a wind talisman, but the thick fog did not disperse at all. What on earth was this thing that was so powerful!

Xiaoxuan entered the space: "Maybe it's some kind of monster that can create fog, I don't know!"
