Chapter Seventy-Four: Secret Realm, Dark Room, Deliberation

In Baihualou, a little girl with surprise on her face, mixed with a little anxiety, ran to her landlord in small steps: "Landlord! When the disciples of the Huanggu Town branch inspected today, they found a newly born ownerless natural secret realm! ”

"Where exactly? How big? Did any other monks find out besides ours? Did we find out first? ”

The owner of Baihua Mansion asked quickly and clearly in succession: "Don't worry, speak slowly one by one, and make it clear." ”

"Yes!"

The little girl calmed down a little and answered in turn according to the order of the landlord's questions:

"At the edge of the Huanggu Forest, close to the direction of the Huanggu Town branch, is the area where we have been fighting with the Haoran Sword-Meng family."

"The entrance to the secret realm is blocked by a natural formation, and it is temporarily impossible to enter, so it is difficult to confirm the scale."

"It was found that the disciple came to report that there was someone from the Haoran Sword-Meng family nearby at that time, one step later than her, but he had also discovered the secret realm."

The more the owner of Baihua Mansion listened, his brows furrowed tighter, his left hand supported his face, and his right hand unconsciously bit by little on the table: [With the group of people in the Meng family, it is impossible to monopolize it. However, the scale of the secret realm is unknown, and if too many sects are invited, there may be a situation where resources are not enough...... I hope that the blocking formation is strong enough, and it is best to drag it out until Shui Qing comes out. If not, be prepared to give up. 】

"Xiao Su, you go and inform the disciples of the Huanggu Town branch first, so that they don't act in a hurry and pay attention to guarding against the people of the Meng family. When necessary, it is okay to evacuate from around the secret realm to protect yourself. ”

The owner of Baihua House got up: "I want to think about the next arrangement." ”

"Yes!"

Xiao Su left in a hurry.

The owner of the Baihua Mansion wiped it on the bracelet, took out a palm-sized, jade-like magic weapon, and started: "After half an hour, go to the top floor to discuss the matter, unless you retreat, you must not delay." ”

The artifact flickered for a while and then dimmed.

The owner of Baihua Mansion walked into the inner room, pointed a little on the wall, a formation appeared on the wall, and continued to make a downward stroke with his fingers, a door appeared on the wall, opened to both sides, and inside the door was a dark room.

The Lord of the Hundred Flowers Pavilion entered through the formation, the door behind him closed, and the formation and the wall returned to their original state in the blink of an eye.

The dark room is not large, and there is no light on all six sides, but there are lighting instruments on all four walls, and when the door is closed, the lighting instruments will automatically light up and illuminate the dark room.

In the dark room, on the floor in the center of the room, a flat white "slab brick" is placed, and the surface is engraved with formations of unknown meaning.

The owner of Baihualou walked straight to the side of the brick, squatted down, and directly injected spiritual power into the brick with his hand.

About half a minute later, a nice female voice came out of the bricks: "Peony? It's not up to date yet. Is there an emergency happening on your side? ”

"It's not urgent, but it's important."

Peony, the owner of the Hundred Flowers Building, said respectfully: "Last night, a disciple discovered a natural secret realm......

Peony explained the situation concisely and said: "I can't make a judgment on my own about the current situation, I hope the owner can help me analyze it." ”

"I'm not good at analysis."

The owner's voice came: "However, listening to what you just said, what you are mainly worried about is the 'Haoran Sword Meng Family'?" ”

"Yes."

Peony explained simply: "Baihualou has taken root in the Low Spirit Realm for six hundred and eighty-eight years. Through active friendship with monks and the opening of branches, the intelligence network spreads throughout the entire Low Spirit Realm. But so far, we have not found out the details of the Meng family. I suspect that the Meng family, like our Baihualou, has the support of other stronger sects. ”

"It really should be taken seriously."

The owner's voice became a little heavy: "However, since you don't know anything about them, it's useless to think about more. For now, you'd better focus on the secret realm. ”

"I understand."

Peony thought for a while and said: "Master, there are very few secret realms that are naturally born in the low spirit realm, I have succeeded the landlord for more than two hundred years, and it is the first time I have encountered it, can you tell me some information about the natural secret realm?" ”

"Of course you can, in fact, the only thing I can help you analyze is the secret realm."

The owner paused for a moment and said, "First of all, you should know that the birth of a secret realm is often closely related to the surroundings, and this is especially true of the natural secret realm. For example, in a secret realm born near the water, the environment in the secret realm is likely to have rivers and lakes, but there will be no fire. ”

"According to the disciple, the place where that secret realm was born is in the forest."

Peony recalled carefully: "That is, there will also be forests in the secret territory?" ”

"The odds are high."

The owner affirmed: "Besides, you said that the entrance to the secret realm is obstructed by a formation? ”

"Yes."

Peony remembers this very clearly: "Listening to what she said, the formation that hinders seems to be quite powerful." ”

"The entrance to the secret realm can reflect the 'structure' of the inner part of the secret realm to a large extent. Since there are formations at the entrance that hinder entry, there must be more and more dangerous formations inside. ”

The owner advised: "When you go to explore the secret realm, remember to bring a formation master with enough ability, preferably a formation cultivator. In addition......"

Peony has been communicating with the owner in the dark room, and it took more than 40 minutes to end this emergency contact, and he let go of his hanging heart.

As soon as he got out of the dark room, Peony rushed to the top floor of the main store of Baihualou - where the high-level officials of Baihualou discussed, discussed, and studied problems.

When I arrived at the place, there was a disciple standing at the door.

"Joy! Why are you here? ”

When Peony saw this disciple, he was shocked: "Could it be that something happened to Shui Qing's retreat?" ”

"The deputy owner of the building broke through and got out."

Lingyue said respectfully: "I happened to receive your transmission jade slip, so he brought me over." ”

"Great!"

Peony suddenly smiled: "There is a sunny water, maybe you can catch something good this time!" ”

Walking into the room, the two elders and the deputy door master Shui Qing were already seated.

"Last night, a disciple of the Huanggu Town branch discovered a natural secret realm."

Peony sat down and went straight to the point: "Unfortunately, the group of people from the Meng family found out. Now that neither side dares to act rashly, what do you think? ”

Elder (A): "The Meng family's Haoran Sword is extremely powerful, if we fight head-on, we are inferior to them. Moreover, if there is a conflict with them, the existence of the secret realm will soon be known to everyone. When the time comes, the other surrounding sects will definitely want to come and get a piece of the pie. ”

Peony: "I'm sure everyone here can think of this, the key is the solution. ”

Elder (B): "If we go toe-to-toe with the Meng family, we are likely to lose both. When other sects discover the secret realm, they may even blame us. Therefore, we might as well take the initiative to inform other sects of the news of the secret realm and invite them to develop the secret realm with us. With the support of other sects, we can not only confront the Meng family head-on, but also gain fame by taking advantage of the situation. As long as we invite those sects that value face, it should also allow us to obtain a little more resources. ”

"I support Elder Mu Tao (Elder B)."

Shui Qing continued: "Then doing it will also help maintain the friendly relationship between us and other sects. ”

"Elder Kim Hibiscus (Elder A),"

Peony reminded another elder, "Do you have any other ideas?" ”

"Nope."

Jin Hibiscus shook his head and said, "I'm just thinking about which sects I should tell about specifically. ”

"I have one more piece of information on that."

Peony said the secret realm information he learned from the owner: "Only Shui Qing is a formation cultivator in our Baihualou, and we can't even find a formation master. Just in case, I want to at least find another formation master or formation cultivator who is about the same level as Shui Qing to cooperate. ”

The two elders, Mu Tao and Jin Hibiscus, were silent for a moment.

"If you can trust me, I can try to invite you to meet the Taoist."

Shui Qing naturally thought of An Wenjian: "I think that at the beginning, I just studied and discussed the formation with Wenjian Daoist for half a month before I found an opportunity to break through. Now in the blink of an eye, twenty years have passed, and I can see that the progress of Daoist friends will not be smaller than mine. ”
