Chapter 268: Chapter 60 Miss Shi Indeed Falls for the Trick
Next, it took roughly a quarter of an hour or so for the Daoist to impart so knowledge about “Five Elents Genesis” to Luo Yan.
Clearly, this Daoist was not his true physical form, but rather an image with mory and intelligence left behind by the master of the secret realm, whose purpose was to guide the cultivators through their trials.
Had it been any other cultivator, they might have felt dejected.
So it seems that in this secret realm, there was not only a lack of treasures and miraculous encounters but just a virtual elder responsible for passing down experiences?
Yet Luo Yan didn’t feel the slightest discomfort. After all, he was used to attending lectures at Yuqing View, and imdiately engaged enthusiastically in the discussion with the Daoist.
Once many of the difficulties had been resolved, Luo Yan once again used the Five Elents Divine Light, and found that many previously obscure aspects were suddenly made clear, which brought him even more joy.
“Thank you, senior,” he sincerely said, “May I ask for your honored na?”
“You may call ‘King of Minor Renown,'” the Daoist nodded in satisfaction and continued, “I have left this image here to impart knowledge of Daoist Magic.”
“Next door, there are precious mories left by the ‘King of Hua Yang Great Thatch’ and ‘King of Hidden Profundity Divine Mandate,’ with the forr teaching swordsmanship and the latter instructing in Art Calculation.”
“If you are interested, you can also visit their residences to learn.”
After finishing, Luo Yan suddenly felt a gust of wind brush past, his feet unable to hold firm, and he was forcibly pushed out the door by the physical strength of the wind.
He then paid visits to the other two pavilions, indeed as the King of Minor Renown had said: one taught swordsmanship, and the other taught Art Calculation.
However, whether it was Daoist Magic, swordsmanship, or Art Calculation, they all seed sowhat mixed and not refined.
They were excellent for providing a foundation for beginners, but for him, only the first round of learning yielded significant gains, with little more to be learned after that.
Luo Yan logically presud that these three individuals were likely Earth Immortals of loose cultivator origins.
Of course, in the star-studded Ancient Era, it wasn’t unusual for loose cultivators to beco immortals through their own efforts.
On the contrary, it is this era where cultivation resources are wholly occupied by the Orthodox Sect and the Demon Cult.
Within the Orthodox Sect, it’s the children of noble families that divide the resources, while the Demon Cult’s Six Paths are entangled in infinite internal strife, and as for loose cultivators… to reach the Nascent Soul would be an imnse blessing.
In summary, this secret realm was basically free of danger and was a “trial-type secret realm” contrived by three bored Earth Immortals, which was perfect for trapping Miss Shi.
And then, through this ans, they lured out Elder Shi Ding, avoiding the event of a hundred thousand gods and demons attacking Penglai.
Perfect!
Luo Yan then returned to the cave, had Ah Jing apply an Illusion Technique to the text at the entrance, and left the Illusion Domain.
Riding his sword, he crossed vast oceans and at last arrived at Yuqing View, where he suddenly acutely noticed that the aura of the Protective Sect Array seed to have changed.
In Formation terminology, this ant that the scanning and defense levels had both been raised.
It seed Elder Shi Ding, though very confident in the Tai Yi Escaping Armor Yin Yang Great Formation, had taken my previous advice and thus raised the alert level.
Luo Yan felt incredibly gratified. He descended his Sword Light on the slopes of Mount Penglai and entered the view on foot.
No sooner had he returned to the Heavenly Craft Workshop than he saw Miss Shi Liuli, angrily storming out:
“Luo Yan! Little Junior Brother Luo, where on earth have you been! Master has repeatedly decreed that no one is allowed to leave the View without approval. How dare you ignore his commands?”
“Sister, I’m sorry.” Luo Yan began with an apology upon eting, and seeing that Miss Shi’s expression had eased sowhat, he then smiled and said, “How co I rember Master saying, ‘Sister, you’re not allowed to leave the View without approval’?”
“How dare you!” Shi Liuli’s anger, which had subsided, suddenly flared up again, “You still talk back!”
With her sleeves rolled up, revealing arms as white as jade lotus roots, she ca over with hands on her hips, pretending to hit Luo Yan.
Luo Yan imdiately took to flight: fighting back was out of the question, and being pinched on the ear by Miss Shi would be too embarrassing, so fleeing was the only option.
Miss Shi seed delicate, but unexpectedly, her stamina was surprisingly good. Running around the entire Heavenly Craft Workshop chasing Luo Yan, she shouted:
“Senior Sister is forbidden from going out, so you think you can just go out and have fun, right? Who exactly is the Senior Brother here, you or ?”
“No, this has nothing to do with seniority, right?” Luo Yan yelled back.
“I’m the Senior Sister, and I’ve been grounded, so you should consciously stay in the View and keep company!” Shi Liuli yelled indignantly.
“Where did this rule co from!” Luo Yan cried out in grievance, hoping a master or fellow senior brothers and sisters would co and restrain Miss Shi.
However, when the senior brothers and sisters ca out upon hearing the commotion, they just stood aside and watched, laughing and chatting as if they were shippers delighting in a love story.
Luo Yan was chased to the point where he had no choice but to hide behind his senior brothers and sisters, enraging Miss Shi so much that she scread and yelled.
“Alright, little Junior Sister,” the eldest Senior Brother, Linghu Chu, spoke, “Don’t bully him anymore.”
Shi Liuli stopped in her tracks, rely glaring at Luo Yan with a huff.
“Disperse, disperse!” Linghu Chu waved his hand to send the onlooking junior brothers and sisters away and then advised Shi Liuli, “Getting angry with your Junior Brother is pointless because it was Master’s idea to ground you. It’s better to wait for Master to return, and I’ll plead with the old man on your behalf, at least to let you go to the market.”
“Thank you, Elder Senior Brother!” Shi Liuli imdiately switched from anger to joy, “Elder Senior Brother is the best!”
Luo Yan felt a bit disappointed: I’ve been waiting on you for so long, yet I’ve never heard you say “Junior Brother is the best.” Elder Senior Brother says a word on your behalf, and you butter him up?
Linghu Chu, on the other hand, didn’t take it to heart, knowing that his little Junior Sister’s praise was as good as a fart, spontaneously given, and he waved his hand and left.
He had been cultivating in the Obscure Weave Rank of the Golden Core Realm for a long ti, just half a step away from forming a Nascent Infant, and he also had to start preparing recently.
After all the senior brothers and sisters had left, Miss Shi put her hands on her hips and glared once more.
But Luo Yan knew her too well and knew that the Miss’s anger had dissipated by now; she was only continuing to maintain a “angry” expression as not to let Luo Yan think she was easy to appease.
“Senior Sister, calm down,” Luo Yan said in an ingratiating tone, “I didn’t go out just for fun this ti, but to seek out a secret realm.”
“Oh, a secret realm?” Shi Liuli’s eyes imdiately brightened.
She loved those unknown secret realms that could be explored, but it was a pity that finding such realms usually depended on sifting through the vast collection of scriptures in the Daozang Pavilion, sothing she hated most was sitting still and reading…
“Ahem.” She “reluctantly” let go of her anger and said seriously, “Tell in detail, and I’ll decide whether or not to forgive you.”
“Here’s how it is, Senior Sister,” Luo Yan recounted the legend of the sheep sages, ntioning that he had followed the route to find Ruan Lang Pavilion, but could not break the restrictions at the entrance.
“Anyway, there must be an entrance hidden there!” he avowed.
“Indeed.” Shi Liuli found it hard not to support him.
As for whether she truly believed there was a secret realm there or just wanted an excuse to go out and play, that remained unknown.
“I’ve decided!” She swung her fist, “Miss is going to find this secret realm!”
“Senior Sister, you’re still grounded,” Luo Yan reminded her half-heartedly, “Anyway, we should wait for Master to lift your confinent before seeking that secret realm, right? That’s just in another twenty or thirty years…”
The Kunlun Mirror listened indifferently to his antics with language, too lazy to even report the increase in Synchronization Value.
Sure enough, the mont she heard “another twenty or thirty years,” Shi Liuli was almost ready to jump:
“What grounding? You must rember incorrectly! Father just said I should try to go out less, he didn’t say I couldn’t go out!”
She feigned innocence with righteous indignation and walked out the door, with Luo Yan hastily following her:
“But what if Master asks afterward…”
“Just say you tried to stop , but couldn’t!”
