Chapter 30: The Trial of the Secret Realm Arrives
Having escaped the predicament of the Gale Eagle, Long Mingyue's current situation is also not good.
After she stepped into the cave, she felt like she was falling down. Who the hell carved this cave? How could it be empty as soon as you step in!
All Long Mingyue wanted to do right now was curse!
She didn't know how long she had been falling before she finally landed on the ground with a thud. Luckily, she had put a cushioning talisman on herself, but even so, she still felt that the breath she had just adjusted was shattered by the fall.
She decided to get up and catch her breath first, ignoring the wounds from the wind blades for the time being.
Lin Liuyi and the others waited for two days but Long Mingyue still didn't join the group. Everyone thought that there might be a difference between immortals and mortals, and it was normal for immortals not to want to pay attention to them.
"Sigh, I still want to show the immortal the glass I just fired!" Liu Mingyue's glass workshop has finally opened successfully.
Although Lin Liuyi's recipe was available, the tools and capabilities of ancient times were limited, so very little colorless and transparent glass could be produced; most of the glass produced was still colored glass.
Liu Mingyue actually preferred this kind of colored glass; it was colorful and had a certain transparency, making it extremely beautiful.
She has already sent a batch to her uncle, the emperor, and the princess's residence; of course, she cannot forget the marquis's residence either.
The feedback she received was that everyone liked it. Her uncle, the emperor, even personally inscribed a message for her shop. The princess's residence also sent her a lot of fabric, and her husband, Liu, and his two brothers from the Marquis's residence collected many strange and unusual items for her, probably because they knew she was inquiring about foreign merchants.
Liu Mingyue genuinely felt that things were fine as they were; it was enough for them to not bother each other and to show occasional concern.
It had been some time since the family reunion, and she had come to understand that the princess's mother couldn't bear to part with her daughter. As for her daughter, it couldn't be said that she was bad to her; there were people from the princess's residence who kept an eye on her daily needs, but Liu Mingyue didn't receive the kind of care and concern that family members wanted.
But that's alright, at least they didn't restrict her contact with the Marquis's mansion. Her father and two brothers would occasionally come to the Princess's mansion to see her, and she felt that was enough.
Long Mingyue finally rested enough, and the wounds cut by the wind blades began to ache faintly. She quickly put medicine in her mouth.
After tending to her wounds, she looked at her clothes, which were torn by the wind blades. If she went out, she would be mistaken for a beggar.
After finishing all that, she didn't rush to explore. Anyway, she was sitting in front of a room, so there was no hurry.
Before exploring, she needed to take stock of the assets in her storage ring and make preparations.
Talismans: I've used one Gale Talisman and one Concealing Breath Talisman, but I still have a stack left. No rush.
Hehe, it's great to have an ancestor who can draw talismans!
As for the pills, we're short one bottle of Bigu Pills, and we've also taken some Rejuvenation Pills, so we still have quite a few left. There's no rush.
As for the robes, well, let them be torn. Long Mingyue decided not to change them at all.
Gale Fruit! This is arguably her most important find from this trip!
As soon as she ran into the cave, she saw the Gale Fruit growing next to the eagle's nest, and immediately picked three of them. There was no other use picking the others since they weren't ripe yet.
Those two Gale Eagles must be furious by now! "Serves you right for attacking me!"
Long Mingyue was right. The two eagles only discovered later that three Gale Fruits were missing, and they howled in anger again.
The monsters in the valley dared not speak out in anger; who had provoked those two irritable beasts this time?
It's not that there aren't any beings capable of defeating two eagles; there are seventh and eighth-tier demonic beasts. However, they generally stay in their own territories, and these are, after all, two sixth-tier demonic beasts. There's no deep-seated hatred between them, and the demonic beasts don't want to fight to the death.
Having cultivated to the fifth level, the demonic beasts have all gained intelligence, and everyone now values cultivation even more.
After packing her things, Long Mingyue finally had time to pay attention to the strange message she had received.
However, before that, she discovered that the book had been updated.
She decided to read the contents first, and the subsequent content was indeed a description of a secret realm.
"This Long Aotian is really lucky! I wonder which family he belongs to in my Long family!" Long Mingyue was envious. Look at the immortal-grade cultivation technique, top-grade pills, and high-grade magic weapon he obtained. He's a person with great fortune! Absolutely a person with great fortune!
Not knowing what she could obtain in this secret realm, Long Mingyue believed that she had also stumbled into a secret realm.
I finished reading the article, and then I heard that message notification.
"The author invites you to join the Multiverse Readers Group. Do you agree?" Long Mingyue looked at the message, pondering something.
"Multiverses? Is it really true?" After much deliberation, she decided to join and give it a try.
As for other worlds, she knew that more than just their world existed. After all, the immortals who had ascended to heaven should not be in the same world as them. But this author could connect to all worlds; what kind of great power must he be!
After agreeing, she decided to explore this secret realm.
She carefully pushed open the door. From the outside, it looked like an ordinary house, but the inside was a completely different story.
Instead of going in, she left, closed the door, and pushed it open again. Hmm? Why does the view look different now?
Undeterred, she continued to close and open the door, and sure enough, the scene changed again.
After several trials, she discovered that her location seemed to be a transit station, with three places accessible by opening the door: the weapon refining hall, the pill workshop, and the cultivation method hall.
She decided to go to the Cultivation Technique Hall first, hoping to find a celestial-grade cultivation technique like Long Aotian did.
She walked nervously into the cultivation hall, where countless books and jade slips were neatly arranged. She wanted to reach out and take a look at a jade slip, but it seemed as if there was a barrier preventing her from doing so.
It's so frustrating to have so much skill right in front of her but not be able to get it.
She dared not force her way in. Since there was a barrier, there must be some kind of restriction. But what could she do if she couldn't get the cultivation technique?
Undeterred, Long Mingyue continued her search in the Cultivation Techniques Hall and finally found a solution.
"Copy three cultivation manuals?" What kind of requirement is this! Cultivators have divine sense; they can simply transfer the information onto jade slips. Who bothers copying books all the time?
She had been wondering why there were so many books here, and now she understood.
What could she do? The brush, paper, and ink were all prepared, so Long Mingyue had no choice but to obediently start copying the book. Fortunately, she had learned how to copy books in her clan.
Sure enough, after she placed the three copied cultivation manuals on the bookshelf, there was no hindrance when she went to get the jade slip.
With so many jade slips, how long would it take her to find them? Thinking of this, she released her spiritual root and slowly sensed them.
Soon a glowing jade slip flew toward her. She reached out, caught it, and placed it on her forehead. It read: "The Myriad Laws Transform into Wind Technique!"
Not bad, it's actually a Heavenly Grade cultivation technique! It can't compare to Long Aotian's Immortal Grade technique, but it's still quite good. Long Mingyue was very satisfied. This "Myriad Laws Transform into Wind Technique" is very suitable for her mutated wind spirit root.
After mastering the cultivation technique, she went to the pill shop first. Sure enough, there was a test there too: to memorize one hundred pill formulas!
She's not an alchemist, to be precise, she hasn't even decided which path she should cultivate yet!
What's going on with this sect?
Yes, Long Mingyue is now certain that this place should be the remains of some ancient sect. Look at those cultivation techniques and the pill formulas she was asked to memorize. These are all treasures that weigh heavily on one's heart!
Long Mingyue, amidst both pain and joy, repeatedly memorized and wrote down the pill formulas. After successfully passing the test, she unexpectedly received three kinds of pills: the Longevity Pill, the Youthful Appearance Pill, and the Barrier-Breaking Pill.
Wow, these are all great pills! The Longevity Pill can extend one's life by a hundred years, the Rejuvenation Pill is highly sought after by women, and the Barrier Breaking Pill is a good thing for advancing to the Nascent Soul stage and dealing with inner demons.
Long Mingyue now felt no pain in her wrists from reciting the text. Even without top-grade pills, these pills were still worth it!
She's now even more excited about what's in the weapon-refining hall.
Upon entering the weapon-refining hall, the good news was that she no longer needed to copy or memorize things; the bad news was that she had to start forging!
This sect is really something else! She has to fight with a hundred different weapons to pass the test! Who made this rule?!
Soon, something else happened that made Long Mingyue grit her teeth: no one had told her that she needed to know the materials before she could forge them!
In order to refine a hundred kinds of weapons, she actually needed to know tens of thousands of materials. Even her ancestor probably couldn't know that many!
That being said, she was still reluctant to give up the reward after success, since the pill shop offered really generous rewards. This was even more difficult than the pill shop, so wouldn't the reward be even better?
