Chapter 76: The Secret Manual of Qing Huang

  The spaceship landed on a desolate land, and as far as the eye could see, there was only barren black soil, not a single blade of grass grew, and it was vast and desolate.

  This is so cool!

  Luoyu sighed, this desolate land has existed for countless tens of thousands of years, and no one knows its origin. Also because the spiritual energy is thin, it does not produce spiritual materials, and even scattered cultivators will not stay here normally.

  "Wang Qi, so it was you who led the team this time!"

  An old man with a white beard flew to the residence of Tianxuan Sect and greeted Wang Qi.

  "Haha, I didn't expect to see you this time, you old rascal." Wang Qi took big strides forward and wrapped his arms around the old man.

  "Our Maple Valley can't compare to the noble sects, there are only a handful of Golden Elixir True People, and everyone else has their own tasks at hand. Except for me, no one else is truly capable of leading a team over here." The old man's face showed a bitter expression.

  "I invited you to follow me to Tianxuan Sect back then, but you refused. Alas, what's the point of coming now!"

  Wang Qi grew up with the old man, but now one is in his prime and the other is old. Alas, it was all caused by the beast tide back then!

  "Alright, let's not mention this anymore. There are still a few hours before the Secret Realm opens, let's go and chat with the other fellow practitioners." As he spoke, he pulled Wang Qi towards the center of the venue, where there were over a dozen Golden Dan True Immortals from various sects in the Eastern Domain.

  The Tianxuan Sect is located in the Eastern Domain of the Xuanhuang Realm, where the spiritual energy is thin and spiritual herbs are scarce. Moreover, it borders the Northern Domain's Demonic Beast Realm, with only Qing Huang separating them. It's not an ideal location for a sect.

  The Eastern Territory only has one second-rate sect, which is the Tianxuan Sect. The rest are all third-rate sects, fourth-rate sects, and some minor sects that don't even count.

  Due to the beast tide that occurs once a century, as the strongest sect in the Eastern Domain, the Tianxuan Sect does not suppress the growth of other sects, and it is also impossible for them to support others. The ten major sects on the Central Continent are very lenient towards the Eastern Domain because they need local sects to restrain the demon beast realm, so this time when the Qinghuang Secret Realm opened, they did not send anyone to take a share of the spoils.

  Of course, this is also because after the Qinghuang Secret Realm was opened for the first time, they learned that it was just a small secret realm, which could be used for Qi training and foundation-building cultivators to practice. The highest level of demonic beasts was only 6th rank, and the highest age of spiritual medicine was only one thousand years old. There were several better secret realms in the Central Continent than this, so they didn't care about the Qinghuang Secret Realm either, taking it for granted as a unique feature of the Eastern Domain.

  However, half a year later, their attitude changed, and the local sect was squeezed out, followed by another struggle and exchange of interests. This is a later story, not to be told for now.

  Luo Yu wore a green robe and had her hair styled in a Daoist bun. At this moment, she was talking to Zi Xi and others.

  "Sister, you really won't team up with us?" Zi Ye frowned.

  "Jade sister, why don't you join our team? With me, Sun Daniu, taking care of you, even if we go to the secret realm, nothing will happen!" Sun Daniu patted his chest, making a loud thumping sound.

  "Hehe, brothers and Sun Da Ge, you don't have to worry, I can take care of myself." Luo Yu said with a smile, "If I still need you to take care of me, then isn't it pointless for me to come here, what's the point of gaining experience?"

  You two are happy, but the other three people in your team don't think so! Haven't you seen the female cultivator behind you giving me a dirty look?

  "Alright," Luo Yu interrupted Zi Xi, "I'm going to the Refining Qi stage team. After entering the secret realm, you all must be extra careful." Luo Yu blinked her eyes.

  Zi Ye nodded in agreement, his sister wanted him to stay away from Huang Luo Yi a bit, and he would do so.

  Luoyu returned to the Qi Refining stage team, sitting alone on the ground with his legs crossed, thinking about what had happened half a month ago.

  On that day, Luo Yu and Zi Xun, Chu Yang did not come up with any results except for avoiding Huang Luo Yi. Luo Yu also didn't have a good countermeasure. She reminded Chu Yang to remind Song Ning and Huang Luo Xue to be vigilant against Huang Luo Yi.

  In the subsequent top ten ranking match, Luo Yu did not participate. As long as she entered the top ten, she would be able to get a spot in the Qing Huang Secret Realm. As for the rewards for the top five and champion, she wasn't particularly interested either - just foundation-building pills, mid-to-high-grade spiritual equipment, and so on. Moreover, the higher her ranking, the more attention she would receive, so it was better for her to keep a low profile.

  After surviving the mysterious and desolate secret realm, they would be taken in by a Golden Elixir True Person. However, by then, Luo Yu might have already found an excuse to explain the changes in her physique.

  The outer gate is compared, and Hou Yong, who has had a battle with Luoyu, wins the championship, holding the black sword to sweep all.

  In the early stage of the foundation, Huang Luo Yi relied on his endless magical treasures to win the championship, while Sun Daniu only got third place, which made him regretful.

  In the mid-term exam of Zhuji, the female lead Luoxue relied on her extraordinary water-based magic and abundant spiritual power to win the championship with an overwhelming advantage.

  After the foundation period trial, Song Ning defeated all his opponents and won the championship, becoming the big brother of the younger generation.

  This time, the door faction's small comparison, Song Ning obtained the title of Jade Young Master, and the female lead Luo Xue obtained the title of Snow Lotus Fairy. However, the female match Luo Yi changed from Water Moon Fairy to Multi-treasure Fairy, and originally did not appear Luo Yu Baozi also rose to fame due to her battle with Duan Qiming, obtaining a flower name, but it's not some elegant flower, but the Bully Flower!

  The Tyrant Flower is a demonic plant with large flowers, red petals dotted with star-like spots, and an appearance that isn't unattractive. However, the flower has a fierce nature like fire, and whenever a demon beast or cultivator approaches it, its branches and leaves will lash out, spewing fireballs from the flower to attack, making it extremely difficult to provoke. If one is careless, they will be dragged into the flower and swallowed into its belly, earning it the alias of "Man-Eating Flower".

  On that day, Chu Yang detailed the habits of the Begonia, using it to tease someone, but saw Luo Yu solemnly say: "This flower is not bad, if you can get its seeds and use them as a carrier for the Thorn Technique, it should have an unexpected effect."

  As she spoke, Luo Yu nodded vigorously, her expression extremely serious.

  This time, Chu Yang was defeated!

  As for Chu Yang's performance in the outer gate trial, oh, he didn't participate in any trials and cleanly obtained the quota for the Qing Huang Secret Book from his uncle.

  Alas, people have different fates! Luo Yu sighed. She almost lost her life for this quota, while he didn't participate in any competition and made a fortune by opening a casino.

  Thinking of the previous bets and wagers, Luo Yu couldn't help but laugh. Chu Yang not only won a large amount of spiritual stones, but also showed himself to be magnanimous and righteous. Even if someone suspected him afterwards, they wouldn't be able to find any reason to blame him.

  For this matter, Chu Yang was also extremely pleased. He had originally prepared a trick, but because of those two 'joyful fathers' and 'no bottom line' gentlemen, he didn't get to use it. The effect, however, was even better than he had imagined, and he thus gained over a thousand top-grade spirit stones, one-fifth of which belonged to Luo Yu, as previously agreed.

  Having obtained over 200 top-grade spirit stones, Luo Yu finally handed the remaining payment for the Golden Hoop Rod to Chu Yang, and still had over 100 top-grade spirit stones left in his hands. It was truly a delightful thing.

  Apart from the top ten outer sect disciples, the other 90 are all in the foundation building stage. This is naturally to maximize the benefits of the sect.

  Fifteen sects plus individual cultivators, a total of 1,600 people. Each person was given a mid-grade storage bag with a capacity of 100 cubic meters. All the spiritual materials they harvested in the Qinghuang Secret Realm had to be put into the storage bags and handed over uniformly. Rewards would then be distributed according to their contribution degree, including Foundation Establishment Pills, Golden Core Pills, magical tools, and spiritual artifacts, among others.

  The allocation of spiritual materials had been discussed and agreed upon by the upper echelons of each sect ten years ago, with the Tianxuan Sect occupying 30%.

  By doing so, it is not only to protect the secret realm from being excessively damaged, but also to reduce the casualties of the disciples in the sect. After all, the last time the secret realm was opened caused tens of thousands of casualties. If this happens a few more times, the Eastern Realm's cultivation world will be severely weakened. When the beast tide arrives, the entire Eastern Realm may be incorporated into the demon beast realm.
