The whole family went mad, but the junior sister turned the tables and her luck soared.

In the blink of an eye, it was the seventh day since the disciples of various sects entered the secret realm.

Every day, disciples are eliminated and teleported out, and without exception, they are met with the stern faces of their elders.

However, when they stammered and ran to their elders to apologize, they were all impatiently waved away.

Lin Jin managed to stay until the seventh day before she came out, and before she did, she had countless questions in her mind.

As a disciple of the Nanhua Sect, she was naturally most concerned about the situation of her own family.

For example, Yun Yici and two others who were originally far ahead in the rankings have fallen and their names have never been seen again.

It doesn't seem like she was eliminated; she watched as the rankings of the three of them slipped down.

Furthermore, Lin Jin had great confidence in the strength of Yun Yici and her two siblings.

After coming out, Lin Jin's first thing to do was look in the direction of their Nanhua Sect. Behind Wen Fuyue and the others, he only saw Baili, Xiong Biao, and Liu Wan.

She paused for a moment, noticing the intense gazes of the other sect elders around her, but looked away after seeing her face clearly.

Meanwhile, a large crowd had gathered around the Weapon Sect's location, and no one knew what they were doing.

Lin Jin, filled with questions, quickly returned to his master's side.

Lin Qinyin looked her up and down, and only felt relieved when she saw that she looked radiant. She said, "You've worked hard."

Lin Jin said embarrassedly, "Master, I'm sorry, I've embarrassed you."

Lin Qinyin reached out and touched her apprentice's face, saying with a hint of pity, "How could this be?"

In fact, Lin Jin had already climbed to sixth place in points before being eliminated, but unfortunately he encountered Lu Yiguang and another cultivator from the Wuji Dao Sect.

Lin Jin was worried that he was no match for the two and that all his points would be taken by the Wuji Dao Sect, so he simply chose to perish together with them.

After a near-fatal one-for-one exchange, she successfully killed the weaker cultivator who was following Lu Yiguang, and then crashed headlong into the lair of the monsters in her plane.

If she dies at the hands of a demonic beast, she can preserve her points and pass them on.

If she dies at Lu Yiguang's hands, not only will her points be completely plundered, but she will also ultimately be eliminated.

After careful consideration, Lin Jin chose the first option, which, although less dignified, would maximize the benefits and reduce the pressure on his fellow disciples to the greatest extent.

Lin Jin asked curiously, "Master, where are Junior Sister Yun and the others?"

Of the ten members of the Nanhua Sect, four have already been eliminated.

Of the remaining six, Xie Qianjue, Liu Qingyue, and Rong Xuan are on the list.

Yun Yici and her two siblings were not eliminated, nor were they found in the top ten.

Lin Qinyin said, "They seemed to have found the Lingwei Sect's inheritance the next day, but after they went in, we couldn't contact them anymore."

These past few days, everyone outside has been frantic with worry.

I thought it was just a temporary loss of contact with Yun Yici and the other two, but I never imagined it would be a final farewell.

I can't get in touch with them, I simply can't get in touch with them.

Even Wen Fuyue couldn't sit still. She asked several times to confirm that there was no problem with the secret realm, and then privately asked Feng Nian to help her with a divination.

The result was a glimmer of hope after a period of despair.

If the members of the Nanhua Sect could patiently wait until the secret realm ended...

The elders from other sects were eager to find out whether the Lingwei Sect leader in this secret realm was dead or alive, and what kind of inheritance was in the secret realm.

If it weren't for the fact that the secret realm could only be reopened after all the disciples had come out, it would be impossible to reopen it.

They need to reorganize the Foundation Establishment disciples to once again enter the secret realm to search for the Lingwei Sect's inheritance.

Since those outside couldn't contact those inside, it was naturally because Shen Fengzhi had severed all the tentacles that were trying to infiltrate the Lingwei Sect.

After Yun Yici received Ning Tinglan and Mu Yunjian, Jiuying indeed kept his promise and gave his life essence to Mu Yunjian.

Mu Yunjian was no child either. As he climbed the cloud ladder, his thoughts gradually cleared, and he never mentioned again that he wanted to destroy Jiuying's essence and blood to deliberately take revenge on Jiuying.

Ning Tinglan, however, knew the whole story and was worried that Mu Yunjian would be embarrassed, so she secretly explained the situation to Yun Yici and asked her to prepare a way out for Mu Yunjian.

There was no way around it; their second senior brother was just too awkward and needed to be coaxed.

Without providing a way out, Mu Yunjian wouldn't be able to get past that hurdle in his heart, and who knows when he'd finally be able to refine the Nine-Headed Serpent's essence blood.

While marveling at the immense power of the plot, Yun Yici was also somewhat worried that after Mu Yunjian obtained the essence of the Nine-Headed Serpent, he would be influenced by its demonic blood and gravitate towards the lawless villains in the story.

Nevertheless, she still took Mu Yunjian to ask Shen Fengzhi about the precautions for refining the Nine-Headed Serpent's essence blood.

They were shocked when they asked.

It turns out that the Nine-Headed Serpent is an ancient ferocious beast with a huge original form and immense demonic power. Ordinary demon cultivators who want to refine its essence and blood will explode and die if they are not careful.

Moreover, even if they survive the initial pain, they will gradually be controlled by the Nine-Headed Serpent's demonic blood, easily losing their minds, and even dying suddenly when they cannot withstand the Nine-Headed Serpent's demonic power when using their own.

This is also why Jiuying instinctively refused when she heard that Muyunjian's prototype was Eyao.

In fact, the original body of the Nine-Headed Serpent's life essence was about the size of a fist, which is about the same as the original form of the Twilight Clouds.

This single drop almost completely replaced all the blood in his body, akin to a complete transformation and physical regeneration. How could he possibly survive?

The process of refining the essence of the Nine-Headed Serpent in Muyunjian two hundred years later in the story is fraught with peril and near death.

Fortunately, in reality he was rightfully recognized by Jiuying, and Shen Fengzhi also agreed to help him.

So, even though Mu Yunjian was unwilling, he had no choice but to take this opportunity to refine the Nine-Headed Serpent's essence blood.

The refining process was carried out in a medicinal pool of the Lingwei Sect.

Mu Yunjian transformed into his original form, with Jiuying assisting him from the side, embedding his essence and blood into his brow.

The palm-sized baby rabbit has pure white and shiny fur, but a tuft of blood-red fur between its eyebrows is particularly eye-catching.

Jiuying had already transformed into human form to guard Muyunjian from the side.

The human form that Jiuying transformed into was a young man in his twenties or thirties.

He wore a wide, black robe with sleeves resembling animal scales, his black hair was tied up high, his face was fair, his eyebrows were slanted upwards, and his eyes were filled with blood-red pupils, with not a single extra white showing.

Jiuying pursed his thin lips; he did not smile.

As Jiuying watched the rabbit, about to be thrown into the medicinal pool, it tried its best not to show any disgust.

Such a small demon body wouldn't even be enough to fill a tooth gap.

He said with a blank face, "These next few days you can refine my essence and blood. The medicinal pool can enhance the strength of your demon body. I will guard the medicinal pool to suppress my essence and blood and help you refine it."

"If you cannot fully refine it in the next few days, that's alright. I will brand my demon seal on you to suppress my remaining essence blood. Once your cultivation level improves, you can slowly unlock my demon seal to refine it."

The little rabbit said, "Thank you, Senior Nine Infants!"

Yun Yici and Ning Tinglan watched as the little rabbit dumpling gradually sank to the bottom of the water, while Jiuying sat cross-legged by the medicinal pool, attentively watching over it. Only then did they leave with peace of mind.
