To Liang Yi’s surprise, the Cold Moon Temple’s Sword Pool was not located inside the Imperial Palace, nor was it within Qingliang City.
Led by Wu Yangshuo, Liang Yi tucked the little fox at his waist and rode a tunneling light following behind Wu Yangshuo.
"The Taoist Sect’s Escape Skill is quite interesting," Wu Yangshuo noticed the closely following Liang Yi and found his use of the Escape Skill intriguing.
Although he was only a Third Realm cultivator, he could now keep up with a Sixth Realm cultivator.
Even though he had considerably slowed down to accommodate Liang Yi, and Liang Yi was barely keeping up, it still showed the exceptional nature of the Taoist Sect’s Escape Skill. Moreover, insanely, this youngster had used three different types of Escape Skills since the beginning, each appearing to be of high quality.
And here he was, the mighty Commander of the Mystic Bureau, having only learned one type so far.
"Are you that afraid of death?" Wu Yangshuo felt sowhat speechless inside, never having seen a Sword Cultivator learn so many Escape Skills.
"We’re here!"
Following a sweep of Array-induced Spirit Light over the three of them, Wu Yangshuo led Liang Yi down into a dense forest nestled between mountains.
The late autumn forest appeared sowhat bleak, most of the trees’ leaves had already fallen, leaving only bare trunks swaying in the wind.
The ground was covered with piles of fallen leaves, making it feel sowhat soft as Liang Yi and others stepped on them.
"Splat."
Liang Yi released the little fox clamped at his waist, not expecting that the little fox, imrsed in the joy of finally seeing the forest, would pounce directly onto the ground without care.
"Ouch ouch ouch."
The little fox instinctively cried out, wanting to massage the part where it had hurt from the fall.
But the next second, it realized that it had fallen onto a layer of fallen leaves. Surprisingly, it didn’t hurt at all; instead, a fragrant scent of soil lingered around its nose.
anwhile, Liang Yi had already turned his attention to Wu Yangshuo.
Wu Yangshuo took out a Mystic Iron Token from his ring, tossing it towards an empty patch of withered grass.
But before the token could land, the hovering token began to emit streams of clear qi.
The clear qi swirled around, centering on the token, starting to rotate.
By the ti all the clear qi had drifted out of the token, it had already subtly transford into the shape of a doorfra, with the token situated at the center at the top, emitting a faint light.
The door itself was also made of clear qi, making it difficult for Liang Yi and others to see the scenery behind it.
The little fox, curious, ran to the other side of the door for a peek, discovering nothing special.
"This is the entrance to the Secret Realm, accessible only with a specially made token from the Immortal Dynasty. Normally, this place is just an ordinary hill, even used by Qingliang folks in sumr for cooling," Wu Yangshuo pointed at the clear qi door.
"The Secret Realm isn’t very large, just about the size of a mountain. Once inside, you will soon see the Cold Moon Temple’s Sword Pool after walking a distance."
"Take this token, it will automatically form an exit after three days."
"Thank you, Commander Wu."
Taking the token handed by Wu Yangshuo, which looked identical to the previous one, Liang Yi thanked him.
"Hmm, if there’s nothing else, you should head in."
"Alright."
Cautiously conducting an investigation and seeing no dangers, Liang Yi, holding the little fox, finally stepped into the door of clear qi.
As soon as Liang Yi and the little fox completely disappeared behind the door, the door of clear qi trembled, the clear qi dispersed, leaving only a token falling onto the weeds.
"All right, ti to stop slacking off, and back to the Mystic Bureau to deal with that pile of issues," Wu Yangshuo watched as Liang Yi two successfully entered the Secret Realm, picked up the token, patted off the dust on it, and put it back into his ring.
A streak of tunneling light flashed, and Wu Yangshuo disappeared into the hill, leaving only the rustling sound of the wind blowing the fallen leaves.
Inside the Secret Realm, Liang Yi restrained the curious little fox as they observed the forest instantly shifting from day to night.
If they weren’t mistaken, the mountain inside the Secret Realm and the one outside should be exactly the sa.
Releasing Divine Sense for investigation, just as Wu Yangshuo had ntioned, not far ahead there was a pond, but at the sa location outside the Secret Realm, Liang Yi rembered there was just a deep pit.
Looking up, the sky was full of dazzling stars and the Silver Moon was waning.
It seed quite normal, but Liang Yi keenly noticed that the celestial stars seed to be fixed in the Heavenly Vault, showing no sign of movent.
"A constant night?" Liang Yi thought contemplatively, such kind of Secret Realm was actually not uncommon, whether it be constant day or night.
This situation mostly occurred when the Secret Realm was incomplete, the imperfection of the world thus causing the split between day and night.
"Let’s go." Leading the curious little fox who was looking around, Liang Yi walked towards the deep pond.
"Cold Moon Temple Sword Pond, I see."
Liang Yi and Yue Bai walked through the woods, arriving at a broad area.
In front of Liang Yi was a huge and smooth rock wall, on which there was a deep sword mark about three feet long.
At the base of the rock wall, there was a deep pond reflecting the Silver Moon in the sky, appearing as if the Cold Moon was gazing up at the sword mark on the rock wall.
"Master, is this a hot spring?"
The little fox noticed that the surface of the ancient pond in the deep mountain had steam rising from it, shimring in the light.
Liang Yi frowned and tested the water with his hand, finding the temperature indeed resembled that of a hot spring, and it was very comfortable when he dipped his hand in.
This was quite strange; normally such pond water should be bone-chillingly cold.
But when Liang Yi looked up at the sword mark and felt the intense and fiery Sword Intent fluctuating from it, he understood; it was the effect of the sword mark, engraved in the rock wall for who knows how many years.
"The Moonlight of the Cold Moon in the sky and the Sword Intent of a great master of the Sword Dao from the rock wall rged, forming a droplet of pond water." Liang Yi pointed at the moon above and then at the sword mark on the rock wall.
Yue Bai looked up and saw the continuous chilly energy of the Moonlight adhering to the sword mark, turning into small droplets when eting the hot steam, and falling into the pond along the sword mark.
However, only the most essential parts dripped into the pond; most were directly evaporated into vapor and dispersed between heaven and earth.
"Although it accumulates slowly, over ti, it has gradually ford this Cold Moon Temple Sword Pond."
The next second, Yue Bai realized a problem: It’s just a pond, how could she and her master soak together?
Thinking of this, Yue Bai’s fox ears beca nervously erect, her little hands clutching tightly at her clothes, her face blushing, not daring to think further.
"What if master has that kind of thought, should I resist a little or just go along with it? But shouldn’t master’s first ti be with Sister Su?"
Liang Yi didn’t notice the nervous Yue Bai almost steaming from the head behind him.
Standing by the pond and scratching his head in thought, Liang Yi reached out his right hand towards the pond and fiercely grabbed, pulling a massive stream of water directly from the pond towards the sky.
Then a fire dragon appeared from the Void and crashed into the water stream, the extrely high temperature instantly evaporating the pond water, creating nurous vapors!
This was what Liang Yi wanted.
The vapor was fixed into a fog wall by Liang Yi applying a special Daoist Skill, which spanned across the pond, splitting the Cold Moon Temple Sword Pond in half.
"That should do it, now neither side can see the other." Liang Yi clapped his hands, turned around, and looked towards the little fox.
Yue Bai looked at the massive fog wall, unsure if she felt happy or lost.
