Chapter 16: The Day of the Secret Realm

In the crowd, Monk Yongcheng looked a little absent-minded and slightly depressed, but when he saw Shen Shi, who had reappeared and walked towards him, he suddenly perked up, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Donor, it seems that you and I are really destined. Yongcheng Heten smiled and said with a smile.

Shen Shi rolled his eyes in his heart, and didn't answer his words, and when he came up, he started bargaining with him straightforwardly, but Yongcheng looked like he was young and a monk, but he seemed to attach great importance to this money, although he was smiling, he refused to let go of the price at all, and was forced by Shen Shi in the middle, he even lowered his voice, motioned for Shen Shi to lean over, and then said in a low voice:

"Donor, it really can't be lower, let me tell you the truth, this keel is not an extraordinary product, it was brought out by a senior brother of my sect in the past who was a senior brother of the Divine Artistic Conception from the Secret Realm of Asking Heavens, and then it fell into my hands. If he had to make some preparations for entering the Heavenly Secret Realm this time, the little monk would never have taken it out. ”

Shen Shi sneered and said, "In other words, it seems that this bone has gone through several hands, but you haven't found any benefit, right?"

Yongcheng's face flushed, looking a little impressive, but then he smiled and said: "That's true, the little monk is short-sighted and can't use this treasure, so he has no choice but to take it out and exchange it for some useful spiritual materials or spiritual crystals." However, the little monk is useless, and it may be of great use to the donor, you say.

Shen Shi hesitated for a moment, and secretly glanced at Xiao Hei at his feet out of the corner of his eye, only to see that the little black pig was staring at the stone-like keel from head to tail, as if he couldn't move it at all. He sighed in his heart, nodded, and said, "Okay, I want this keel, but I don't have so many spirit crystals, can you change this thing?"

As he spoke, he reached into the Ruyi bag and took out the star grass and gently placed it on the table.

The next moment, I saw that the eyes of the young monk behind the table lit up suddenly, and he stood up at once, and then flicked his robe, and in a moment he had put away the star grass, and then smiled from ear to ear, saluted, and said:

"Deal!"

※※※

When he walked out of the crowd, Shen Shiwu felt a little itchy feeling between his teeth, and secretly gritted his teeth, thinking that this time he must have been put on a pose by the monk. But when he turned around and saw the little black pig following him, who was holding the broken bone tightly with a haha stupid look at the moment, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Forget it, anyway, the star grass was also produced by Xiao Hei himself, and he blamed himself for being stupid if he was deceived. And thinking that the bargain he had just made was not useless, at least at this moment, he secretly had a few more third- or fourth-grade spirit grasses in his wishful bag, thinking of this, Shen Shi's mood was much better.

Seeing that there were no other good things around, and Xiao Hei followed by him and hugged the bone, no matter how he looked at it, it looked funny and stupid, so Shen Shi took it and walked back. walked all the way to the door of the Lingxiao Courtyard, and suddenly saw a figure walking out of the gate of the courtyard inside, but it was Zhong Qinglu.

"Stone. Zhong Qinglu also saw Shen Shi at a glance, and at the same time she was a little surprised, she also had a hint of a smile, and asked with a smile, "Why did you come back so soon?"

Shen Shi shrugged his shoulders and said, "After looking around, it's almost like that, I didn't want anything in particular, so I came back." ”

Zhong Qinglu nodded and said, "Well, that's what I said." By the way, today is the last day of the fair, and according to the custom, you may enter the Wentian Secret Realm tomorrow, are you ready?" After a pause, her clear eyes glanced at Shen Shi again, and said, "Those pills...... Are you enough?"

Shen Shi nodded and said, "It should be enough." Although there are countless opportunities in the secret realm of asking the sky, it is also unpredictable, and you must be careful yourself starting tomorrow. ”

Zhong Qinglu smiled, then tilted his head slightly, as if he had thought of something, and said with a smile: "I heard that although the world in the secret realm is huge, there are often people who will meet in it in the past. It would be nice if we could meet in a secret place and explore together in search of opportunities, it would be much safer than traveling alone. ”

Shen Shi said with a smile: "That's natural, but this kind of thing is too slim, it depends on chance." ”

Zhong Qinglu smiled and nodded, and after saying hello to Shen Shi again, she walked outside, Shen Shi saw her off, and then walked into the Lingxiao Courtyard, turned into a corridor next to her and walked towards her room, but she naturally thought of another woman surnamed Zhong in her heart. Speaking of coming to Yuanshimen in the past few days, several acquaintances have seen each other a few times on weekdays, but only Zhong Qingzhu seems to have been living in seclusion, as if she has never seen her since arriving at this Yingxiantai, including when she climbed the mountain to see the Wuzhen Rock and the Three Holy Stone Statues that day.

I don't know what happened to her now?

But if you think about it carefully, such a rigorous and diligent cultivation situation is really quite in line with Zhong Qingzhu's usual temperament, but I don't know what kind of encounter will everyone who knows each other well in the end of this trip to the Secret Realm of Wentian, and what kind of opportunities will each of them get?

※※※

This day passed peacefully in the bustle, the trade fair of ordinary disciples was grand and exciting, and the trade fair of the senior elders was mysterious and atmospheric, the details of which were not yet known, but this qiē did not prevent everyone from looking forward to the next, because what was coming soon was the most important trip to the Heavenly Secret Realm at this Sizheng Conference.

As Zhong Qinglu said to Shen Shi, on the second day after the end of the fair, it is generally the time when the secret realm of Wentian is opened, and according to the practice of the previous Four Righteous Conferences, the Yuan Shimen will arrange a powerful/magic circle on the Yingxian Terrace, and invite the treasure "Manggu Mirage" inherited from the generation of the ancestor of the Creation School, and then the heads of the four factions will jointly activate the magic weapon and open up the secret realm channel.

There are two secret realm passages, one large and one small, the big one is for a large number of Ning Yuan Realm disciples to enter, and the small one is for the disciples of the Divine Realm, but the number of people is more restrictive, and only about twenty people can enter at a time.

In short, the most critical and important moment is finally coming, and on this night, many young disciples on Yingxiantai are full of excitement and longing and fall asleep, and even some people who are overly excited can't even sleep. However, as a monk, his natural body is much stronger than that of ordinary people, and it is not too much of a problem to not sleep for a few days.

Shen Shi is also looking forward to the arrival of tomorrow, but finally his mood is quite calm, so he can sleep peacefully in his room, but he has some things that make him cry and laugh, the little black pig looks much more excited than him, lying on the bed all night, tightly holding the stone bone that is said to be the keel in his arms, from time to time he sniffs and sniffs and even sticks out his tongue to lick it, and then he looks like he is smirking and laughing, which makes people a little unbearable.

Shen Shi was also a little helpless about this, and then thought of the fact that when he entered the Wentian Secret Realm tomorrow, Xiao Hei didn't know if he could go in with him, and he was also a little worried. Although he himself has tried his best to make sufficient preparations for this trip to the Secret Realm of Wentian so far, almost all the magic spells that should be cultivated and the elixir talismans that can be prepared have been brought with him, but in his long cultivation career, in countless battles and tempering, he has almost always fought side by side with Xiao Hei.

If Xiao Hei couldn't follow him into the Wentian Secret Realm, it would indeed be a big loss for Shen Shi, but if that was the case, he would naturally not be able to say anything as a small Ning Yuan Realm cultivator, so he could only follow the rules.

In fact, before this, he had tried to inquire about whether he could bring his pet into the secret realm of Wentian, but the answer he got was not very consistent, some people seemed to have never paid attention to it, and some people thought about it for a long time after being surprised, and then the answer was also ambiguous and uncertain. In the end, Shen Shi summed it up by himself, but came to the conclusion that there really didn't seem to be a definite rule in this matter.

Judging from past examples, there are indeed many people who want to bring their pets into the Wentian Secret Realm, and the elders of the Four Righteous Sects also seem to have an attitude of letting this matter go, after all, if there is a tame pet with strong combat power to follow him, it will definitely be of great help to the risky trip to the Wentian Secret Realm. But among them, some people have successfully brought their pets into the secret realm, and some people's pets have been blocked out by the secret realm, but no one has ever been able to say what the reason is.

In short, in the end, it comes down to one sentence, the secret realm of Wentian that has been handed down from the hands of the saints of the past is too magical and mysterious, and the descendants of the future generations will follow the fate.

The night passed in a blink of an eye, and for some calm people, it was just a time to close their eyes and sleep, but for others who were full of excitement, this night was particularly tormenting and sad. However, when the light of day dawned and the newborn sunlight fell on Yingxiantai, everyone still breathed a sigh of relief.

The day has finally arrived.

Shen Shi was the same, when he woke up in the morning, when he opened his eyes and saw the little bit of light coming in from the window, he was also a little excited, but he soon calmed down. It's just that when he turned his head to look, he was still stunned, Xiao Hei, who was very excited last night, actually fell asleep again at this moment, it seems that no matter what, the pig's nature of sleeping can't be reversed, but the keel that was tightly hugged by it yesterday suddenly disappeared at this moment, and I don't know where it went.

Shen Shi shrugged, and didn't bother to meddle in things, thinking that if Xiao Hei couldn't follow him into the Wentian Secret Realm, then let it stay in this room and wait, but for now, of course, he still had to try.

So he quickly stood up, stretched his waist, and then woke up the sleepy-eyed and unwilling little black pig, and then rested in the room for a while, and when it was almost dark, he took Xiao Hei out of the courtyard and walked towards the outside of Lingxiao's courtyard.

Just walked to the Yingxian Terrace, Shen Shi felt that something was not quite right, and there was a commotion and discussion in the distance outside, which seemed to be mixed with many shocking and surprised sounds.

He subconsciously quickened his pace, and as soon as he walked out of the gate, he saw that the Yingxian platform outside was already full of people.

Many of the disciples of the Four Great Sects were standing here, discussing among themselves.

Shen Shi's gaze swept over, and he was quickly stunned for a moment, and found that something was wrong.

On the wide and flat Yingsendai, there are people everywhere.

But there are only people, and the legendary magical magic circle that should have been there on this day did not appear. I1292
