The rolling snow waves covered vast expanses of greenery.

Some of the leaves, imbued with spirituality, emitted a bluish-green glow beneath the snow.

A figure in a white Daoist robe took out a compass and stood silently before the snowy mountains.

At this moment, there wasn't the slightest shadow on the compass. His brow furrowed deeply, while his other hand tightly clenched the Spirit Diagram without realizing it.

Then, as if he thought of something, he directed the compass toward the distant wilderness.

However, the two streams of spiritual light on the compass continued to leave no trace.

All traces of the spiritual light had been destroyed by the self-exploding array. Even if it hadn't been destroyed, the spiritual might from the avalanche had spread out, making it impossible to find anything.

His body stepped back into the flying ship once again.

Just as he was about to randomly choose a direction to pursue, an image appeared in his hand, which only had two lines of text:

"Quickly come to the Spirit Medicine Garden, demons appear!"

…

In a cerulean wilderness, a white spiritual ship slowly descended toward a valley.

On the spiritual ship, two graceful figures held a spirit diagram, surveying their surroundings.

These two were precisely Ye Xingliu and Ye Jingcheng.

The spirit diagram was the treasure map Ye Jingcheng obtained from the Mad Corpse Fiends, and it matched this secret realm. Naturally, both were extremely interested, as there was no chance the spirit diagram was fabricated.

Ye Xingliu transformed into an older Daoist nun's appearance, while Ye Jingcheng assumed the guise of a lively and cute young girl.

Both of them appeared perfectly at ease with each other. Initially, Ye Xingliu was worried that Ye Jingcheng might not be accustomed, but soon felt reassured.

Along the way, they encountered quite a few cultivators.

However, in usual times, Cyan Cloud Nunnery in Taichang Commandery prioritizes harmony, so few dared to cause trouble.

Only a few Foundation Establishment cultivators from Taiqing Commandery, seeing them alone and with many storage bags and spirit beast bags at their waists, initiated flirtation and even proposed they act together.

Ye Jingcheng immediately took out a jade sword and began attacking, clearly perturbed by their mockery, and Ye Xingliu also took out a duster.

The two utterly demonstrated the phrase "act without speaking."

This startled those Foundation Establishment cultivators, making them feel as if they were the ones being teased.

After all, engaging in magical combat without treasures in a secret realm rich with treasures is extremely foolish.

Yet, after a few exchanges, what puzzled the cultivators was that Ye Jingcheng and Ye Xingliu's magic seemed rather unfamiliar, eventually causing them to run away directly.

This left a few people exchanging glances, but they didn't pursue, though filled with curiosity.

"Master Jingxin, our spiritual energy is lacking, let's rest for a while!" Ye Jingcheng, now named Su Xin, happened to be a small genius of Cyan Cloud Nunnery, having reached Foundation Establishment at the tender age of fifty-two, and looked exceptionally endearing. Ye Jingcheng had seen her not only in the jade talisman description but also at the Ye Family's Purple Mansion grand ceremony.

"Alright, let's settle in this valley!" Ye Xingliu, transformed into an older Daoist nun, quickly descended.

Subsequently, they began setting up an array.

Once the array was set, Ye Xingliu exhaled deeply, simultaneously spitting out a mouthful of dark blood.

This scene instantly made Ye Jingcheng somewhat nervous.

"It's nothing serious, got a backlash from the array. Maybe next time you should control the array," Ye Xingliu half-joked.

Following that, she took a spirit pill and then brought out injured spirit beasts like Lizard Lord and the Jade-eyed Golden-eyed Tiger for Ye Jingcheng to heal.

Ye Jingcheng had not realized before, but upon viewing them now, he suddenly noticed that both the Li Fire Cyan Ox and the Red Golden Roc were quite seriously injured.

It was enough to see how indeed formidable the strength of the late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator Kong Wanling was.

Additionally, there were his Golden Scale Beast and the Three-Colored Cloud Deer.

Both had been injured by the Ancient Monk Bell talisman treasure.

Ye Jingcheng also took out treasure lights to commence healing one by one.

After handling these, Ye Jingcheng also consumed a spirit pill himself. Of course, it wasn't that he wanted to pretend to recover his spiritual power, but because he had indeed spent quite a bit of spiritual power during the prior big battle.

Seeing this, Ye Xingliu nodded and surprisingly spoke up:

"This time, I thought that Yun Jianzi would conduct an interrogation, but it seems spared. I suppose a great treasure appeared in the entire secret realm."

"So, it is perfectly fine for us to head toward the location of this secret treasure according to our direction," Ye Xingliu simply analyzed, and Ye Jingcheng nodded while listening.

They deliberately provoked and found trouble precisely to prove that the Ye Family cultivator didn't appear nearby; it was the two female cultivators from Cyan Cloud Nunnery who showed up.

Of course, this would damage the sect of Cyan Cloud Nunnery.

A trace of guilt also flashed through Ye Jingcheng, but since Ye Xingliu suggested posing as Cyan Cloud Nunnery female cultivators, he had no choice.

He guessed these Cyan Cloud Nunnery female cultivators might have other reasons too.

After all, he discovered that the ones who provoked them were only the Foundation Establishment clans from Taiqing Commandery, while the cultivation clans of Taichang Commandery and the Purple Mansion clans above Taiqing Commandery wouldn't do anything to Cyan Cloud Nunnery.

"You should now refine a furnace of Bone Transformation Pill, and I'll cover for you!" Ye Xingliu, having recovered her spiritual energy, also spoke.

Now that they had obtained the Gold Condensing Fruit Tree, as well as the Spiritual Eye Spring and many spirit medicines, there was no hurry.

If the secret realm's treasures were too hotly contested, they might give up altogether.

As for the treasures Yun Jianzi retracted from, they had no interest in the slightest.

The treasures in the Cultivation Realm are countless, and even Nascent Soul True Monarchs cannot possess them all. As of now, the Ye Family just needed to keep a low profile.

In the following two days, Ye Jingcheng and Ye Xingliu stayed hidden within the valley.

Within the valley, there were also some Red Stone Grass.

This type of spirit grass belonged to Tier One High-Grade fire attribute spirit grass and was not much use to Ye Jingcheng or Ye Xingliu.

But Ye Xingliu also took advantage of Ye Jingcheng's alchemy time to harvest all the mature spirit medicines.

She even deliberately collected some soil for Ye Jingcheng from places with good soil.

A day quickly passed, and Ye Jingcheng once again successfully refined; this time, he got four Bone Transformation Pills.

The two of them immediately consumed the Bone Transformation Pills, transforming their physical bodies and returning to their original appearances.

After all, having entered the secret realm previously, it would be too suspicious not to have appeared at all.

It would more easily arouse suspicion.

After changing their appearances, the two proceeded for half a day and reached a new valley.

This time the descent to the valley was not for other reasons, but the two intended to inspect the storage bags of the Kong Family cultivators to find some treasures they could use next.

As for whether using the treasures would cause trouble.

The two didn't care, for at that time survival and silencing witnesses would be most important.

Ye Jingcheng was also the first to pull out a spirit talisman.

It was precisely the Ancient Monk Bell talisman treasure.

The power of this talisman treasure delighted him greatly.

The Divine Sense Sound Wave Attack Talisman treasure happened to make up for his current inability to use the Profound Cyan Tower Talisman Treasure.

Although the Profound Cold Seal was formidable, its usage was limited.
