After being reborn, the villain comes with a spoiler tag.

Hua Yu was slightly startled, and her hand paused. The place Huo Yu was looking at had already crossed the boundary that the jade talisman's light could protect.

Because of the ceaseless gale in this place, whether it is a Nascent Soul cultivator or a powerful being in the Divine Transformation stage, once their divine sense extends beyond the light of the jade talisman, they will be instantly torn apart by this eerie wind.

Although she didn't know how Huo Yu had sensed the anomaly when his divine sense couldn't reach it, Hua Yu didn't say much. She simply put away the jade talisman in her hand and waited quietly for the situation to develop.

Not long after, a figure appeared out of nowhere from where Huo Yu was looking.

Before the person could fully reveal themselves, a voice carrying a hint of amusement and apology rang out first:

"I was delayed by some trivial matters, and I apologize for keeping Fellow Daoist Huo and Fellow Daoist Long waiting."

The visitor was none other than Dongxuzi. He was dressed in a blue robe, holding a folding fan, and wearing a gentle smile on his face, as if he were a long-lost friend, completely unaware of his uninvited arrival.

However, his appearance made Hua Yushi's heart skip a beat - this person appeared silently, without the slightest fluctuation of the teleportation array, and was able to move freely in this world where divine sense was limited.

Even among powerful cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage, very few can achieve this. Without needing to use her divine sense, Hua Yushi already knew the other party's identity.

When Dong Xuzi seemed to only then notice Hua Yu standing with Huo Yu and Long Yucheng, a mischievous smile immediately appeared on his lips:

"All I've seen on my journey have been rough and tough men, yet you two have only been apart for a short while and have already gotten to know this young lady. Ah, I truly envy you."

His tone was relaxed and casual, as if he were simply catching up with a friend.

However, before he could finish speaking, Dongxuzi remained motionless, but in the next instant, he quietly appeared behind Huayushi.

After examining him closely, his smile deepened.

"So you are a fairy from the Chang Le He Huan Sect. What a coincidence! I was just wondering how to get into this place. Now that a fairy is here, there is no need to look for another way."

The flower language was completely unaware of how this person had appeared silently behind them until they got close enough to notice the other person's presence.

Her spiritual energy surged instantly. She took a few steps back and stood behind Huo Yu, her eyes filled with a hint of vigilance and wariness. She did not reply.

Huo Yu merely glanced at Dong Xuzi, his expression remaining calm and his tone indifferent:

"Since you're here, let's come together."

Upon hearing this, Dongxuzi's face immediately lit up with a smile, and his gaze shifted from Hua Yushi back to Huo Yu:

"Fellow Daoist Huo is indeed a straightforward person. In that case, please, fairy, open the entrance."

Hua Yu looked at Huo Yu and saw him nod slightly in acknowledgment. Only then did she take out the jade talisman again and concentrate on activating her spiritual power.

The light emanating from the jade talisman gradually became dazzling, like a small sun slowly rising in her palm. The surrounding air seemed to tremble along with it, emitting a series of low hums.

Dongxuzi stood to one side, his gaze fixed on the jade talisman in Huayushi's hand, nodding and shaking his head as he muttered incantations.

After observing carefully for a moment, Dongxuzi withdrew his gaze and suddenly sighed:

"So this is the Spirit Sealing Restriction of the Chang Le He Huan Sect. First it was the Dragon Abyss Hall and the Lingxiao Palace, then the Qiankun Dao Sect and the Chang Le He Huan Sect. The various entrances here have probably been thoroughly studied by the major sects. Sigh, it's still good to have a sect's foundation."

Dongxuzi shook his head, his tone tinged with self-mockery and helplessness.

"For a free spirit like me, without any sect or school, even if I were lucky enough to find this place, it would still take a lot of effort to get in. By the time I do that, Dan Chen and Wu Ji would probably have already finished their fight inside."

At this point, Dongxuzi seemed to remember something, turned to look at Huo Yu and Long Yucheng, and changed the subject, asking politely:

"I forgot to ask earlier, may I ask which schools Fellow Daoist Huo and Fellow Daoist Long studied under?"

Huo Yu stared at the jade talisman in Hua Yu's palm, and at the annotation above her head that had gradually turned into "Scarce Hope," without replying.

Long Yucheng kept his eyes down, subtly observing his surroundings. He had already sensed that his senior brother clearly didn't want to chat much with the overly familiar Dongxuzi, so he replied:

"No sect or school."

Upon hearing this, Dongxuzi's gaze lingered on Long Yucheng for a moment, then he gently closed his folding fan and said with a smile:

"So you two fellow cultivators are also rogue cultivators. In that case, it is quite a rare fate that we meet in this ancient immortal realm today."

His tone was relaxed and casual, but Long Yucheng dared not let his guard down for a moment.

The pressure he felt from Dongxuzi was far greater than that from the Qingluo Sect woman, whose cultivation level was unknown.

Although he seemed to have no ill intentions, the pressure that unconsciously emanated from that one glance sent a chill down Long Yucheng's spine, as if he were being watched by some powerful predator.

However, Long Yucheng did not forget his persona as a superior person, and maintained his indifferent and detached expression, only nodding slightly in response.

Fortunately, the flower language did not give Dongxuzi too much time for idle chatter.

Just as Dongxuzi finished speaking, the jade talisman in her palm suddenly burst forth with dazzling light, like a blazing sun, coating the surrounding yellow sand with a dazzling golden hue.

The ground began to tremble slightly, as if something was awakening. Then, an ancient rune slowly emerged from the yellow earth, echoing and resonating with the jade talisman in Hua Yushi's hand.

The runes were complex and mysterious, each stroke and line seemingly containing some kind of rule. Their light gradually spread, eventually condensing into a pillar of light that shot straight into the sky.

A moment later, the light faded, and a dark cave entrance appeared before the three of them.

Faint traces of runes can be seen at the edge of the cave entrance, indicating that it has always been here, but was previously sealed by some kind of restriction, and has only now been able to see the light of day again.

After witnessing this scene, Dongxuzi's tone revealed a rare hint of sincerity as he sighed:

"As expected of the Spirit Sealing Restriction, which is said to originate from the Immortal Restriction, it is extremely mysterious. I wonder if Wuji could discern anything from it if he were here."

After speaking, his gaze swept over Huo Yu and Long Yucheng, and he gestured for them to proceed, saying:

"Fellow Daoists, please."

Huo Yu remained calm and leaped into the cave entrance, with Long Yucheng following closely behind without hesitation.

Hua Yu put away the jade talisman and followed, never once glancing at Dong Xuzi.

Dongxuzi continued to stroll leisurely at the back, fanning himself with his folding fan, as if this trip was nothing more than a spring outing.

After the four people stepped into the cave, the runes around the entrance flickered for a moment, and then the entrance disappeared again, returning to a flat area no different from the rest of the place.

The wind continued to howl, and yellow sand filled the sky, as if the four people and the cave entrance had never existed.
