The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

Qinghua was well prepared for Lu Yao's questioning.

"Fellow Daoist may not know that there are quite a few Core Formation cultivators in Tianxing City, but most of them are from the Star Palace. If the news of this secret realm were given to the Star Palace, we might not have this opportunity."

“I know all the Core Formation cultivators in Tianxing City by name, but I am quite unfamiliar with you, fellow Daoist. I suppose you are not a cultivator from the Star Palace.”

Qinghua smiled calmly. Since Lu Yao could come to Wanbaolou to buy these things, he must not be a member of the Star Palace.

Otherwise, these things are already in the Star Palace Treasury. As a Core Formation cultivator in the Star Palace, how could you not obtain them? Why bother buying them from the Myriad Treasures Pavilion?

"Fellow Daoist has discerning eyes. In that case, I agree."

Lu Yao nodded. Although he was somewhat skeptical, he wasn't afraid of Qinghua making any underhanded moves. With his strength, dealing with a few Core Formation cultivators was no problem for him.

"Haha, with fellow Daoists joining us, we will surely be able to break into that secret realm."

"Because we still need to find a fellow Daoist, the time is set for two months from now. This is a communication jade talisman. Please keep it safe so that we can send out the message."

Qinghua smiled, took out a jade slip, and handed it to Lu Yao.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lu Yao left Wanbaolou.

After renting a cave dwelling in Tianxing City, Lu Yao took out the Black Mystic Furnace, intending to refine some pills.

Since we're going to hunt monsters in the open sea, we naturally need something to attract them.

Although there are many monsters in the outer sea, finding them is quite troublesome. It would be quicker and easier to lure them over.

There are many spiritual items that can attract high-level demonic beasts, the most famous being the Rainbow Grass and the Companion Grass, which can attract demonic beasts below level eight.

Of course, there are many monsters in the outer sea, but not many are above level eight, so the chance of encountering one is not high.

It will most likely still attract monsters below level seven.

Lu Yao naturally didn't have these two kinds of spiritual herbs. Wanbaolou should have them, but Lu Yao didn't buy them, so he must have a plan.

Lu Yao took out a pill formula, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Item: Demon-Attracting Pill

Grade: Initial grade of Xuan rank

Ingredients: Bewitching Fruit, Heavenly Demon Flower...

Effect: It can emit an extremely rich fragrance, which is very attractive to monsters.

This elixir is based on an ancient formula that Lu Yao had collected before. The ingredients for it can be found in the Chaotic Star Sea, and Lu Yao bought quite a lot of them.

A few days later, Lu Yao put away his alchemy furnace. He had already refined enough Demon-Attracting Pills, enough to last him for a long time.

Suddenly, Lu Yao's expression changed slightly, and he took out a communication jade slip.

This communication jade slip is not from Qinghua, but belongs to Fan Jingmei.

……

Above the sea near Tianxing City, a purple figure flew swiftly away, followed by two other figures.

"Junior Sister Fan, why are you so confused? Elder Meng is a Core Formation cultivator. Being noticed by him is an immense opportunity. Don't be so stubborn."

A middle-aged woman with a captivating figure and alluring charm spoke with a smile.

"Hmph! Elder Meng hasn't given me the time I need yet, why are you taking me back?"

A look of panic flashed in Fan Jingmei's eyes, and she turned around angrily and said.

"Elder Meng has given you time to consider, but that doesn't stop us from taking you back. Junior Sister Fan, you're not thinking of running away, are you?"

The alluring woman's lips curled slightly as she thoughtfully watched the figure flying away ahead.

"Why is Senior Sister wasting so much time talking to her? The elders told us to take her back. If she escapes and upsets the elders, we'll be in trouble."

The male cultivator beside the alluring woman frowned, clearly having no desire to waste any more time with Fan Jingmei.

They originally came out to take Fan Jingmei back to Miaoyin Sect, but Fan Jingmei ran away as soon as she saw them, and they've been chasing her all the way.

One of them was in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, and the other was in the late stage of Foundation Establishment. It was naturally easy for them to control Fan Jingmei, who was in the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

However, it was unclear what kind of teleportation technique Fan Jingmei had cultivated, but she was extremely fast, which is why it took them quite a while to catch up.

"Hehehe~ Junior brother, don't worry. Her escape technique won't last much longer. Why rush? If you hurt her, it won't be easy to explain to the elders."

The alluring woman covered her mouth and smiled, clearly unaware that Fan Jingmei had escaped.

"Damn it, my magic power is almost gone, what should I do? Will he come?"

Fan Jingmei was somewhat anxious. If she were caught up after her magic power was almost depleted, her only option would be to return to Miaoyin Sect.

Once we go back, we'll likely find ourselves trapped in Elder Meng's clutches.

In fact, becoming Elder Meng's concubine is not without its advantages. At least one can obtain a large amount of cultivation resources and a period of protection. All that is required is one's own body.

But Fan Jingmei was unwilling; she didn't want to give her virginity to an old man no matter what.

That's when the resistance arose. Normally, if this matter were reported to the sect leader, Elder Meng wouldn't have gone too far.

However, for some reason, the sect leader of Miaoyin Sect was not in the sect during this period, and the other elders did not want to pay attention to these trivial matters, which allowed Elder Meng to act with impunity.

After all, Elder Meng only wanted to take a few concubines, and the other elders would still give him that much face.

However, Fan Jingmei's escape speed slowed down after a short while.

"Let's go, junior brother, take Junior Sister Fan back with us."

The alluring woman chuckled softly, her speed suddenly increasing as she intercepted Fan Jingmei.

"Junior Sister Fan, let's go. I'm just being gentle and considerate, so I don't want to hurt you or damage our friendship as fellow disciples."

The alluring woman smiled, and a pipa (a type of lute) appeared in her hand.

The middle-aged man behind Fan Jingmei also took out a jade flute, a magical artifact.

The Miaoyin Sect cultivates its Dao through sound arts. All its disciples are skilled in sound arts, and many even know sound cultivation techniques. The sect is quite well-known in the Chaotic Star Sea.

Seeing that there was no hope of escaping, Fan Jingmei felt a pang of bitterness in her heart.

"What? Junior sister is still stubbornly clinging to her delusions? Then don't blame your senior brother."

Seeing that Fan Jingmei did not move, the middle-aged man became displeased and immediately activated a talisman, which transformed into a green vine and wrapped around Fan Jingmei.

He could see Fan Jingmei's resistance, but she had no choice in the matter.

Although Fan Jingmei knew she couldn't escape, she still showed a stubborn side and wanted to resist.

A pale blue pearl appeared, and a light barrier enveloped it, blocking the green vines activated by the middle-aged man.

This is her magical artifact, the Wonderful Pearl, a magical artifact that is both offensive and defensive.

However, due to the depletion of magical power, the light of the Mystic Pearl was very dim, and it only held out for a few breaths before it began to sway precariously.

"boom!"

The light barrier shattered, and the green vines immediately surrounded Fan Jingmei, attempting to bind her.

"call out!"

Just then, a flash of light disappeared, and the green vines surrounding Fan Jingmei turned into spiritual light and vanished inch by inch.

Fan Jingmei, who had already resigned herself to her fate, suddenly had an idea and her eyes lit up.
