"What should we do now?"
Extreme Fire asked.
Su Zimo said in a deep voice, "We can't continue like this. We have to find a safe and secluded place to cultivate for a few days."
They had been wandering around Kunlun Ruins and fighting the entire time. Although they had accumulated a lot of insights, there was no end to them.
They did not have the chance or time to consolidate their insights either.
Furthermore, Nien Qi was severely injured and could not move too much.
Even with his Protoss bloodline and powerful regeneration ability, Nien Qi would have to recuperate for ten days to half a month for his injuries.
"I know a place where no malevolent spirits or malicious ghosts will barge in."
Extreme Fire said in a deep voice, "It's the secret realm that I entered 5,000 years ago! I obtained the Night Spirit and Candlelight Sword Formation from that secret realm. "
"Alright, let's go there to recuperate and cultivate for a while."
Su Zimo made his decision.
Firstly, Nien Qi could recuperate in peace.
Secondly, they had gained quite a bit of insight after fighting for the past few days. If they seized the opportunity to cultivate and consolidate it, their cultivation and combat strength would increase by quite a bit.
As for Su Zimo, he could also make use of this opportunity to refine the large chunk of Worriless Wood in his storage bag!
At that time, the three of them would have a breakthrough in their combat strength and it would be safer for them to explore Kunlun Ruins again.
Extreme Fire took out a map from his storage bag and compared it. "It's not far from here. Follow me."
Extreme Fire said and led the way.
Su Zimo carried Nien Qi on his back and followed closely behind.
Every step in Kunlun Ruins was dangerous.
The three of them did not walk quickly and only arrived at their destination after nearly half a day.
Before them was a mountain that towered into the clouds.
The mountain peak was filled with strange rocks and not a single blade of grass grew on it. There was no sign of life.
Extreme Fire brought the two of them into a cave at the foot of the mountain.
The cave was full of twists and turns and there were countless caves. At a glance, it was impossible to determine the direction.
"Follow closely. Don't get lost."
Extreme Fire instructed. Following the map in his hands, he walked along a karst cave.
There were many forks in this cave.
As Extreme Fire walked, he would often change his direction and walk towards one of the forked paths.
Sometimes it would turn left, sometimes it would turn right. There was no pattern at all.
After a long while, Extreme Fire finally stopped.
Su Zimo looked over.
In front of them was another extremely long tunnel. They couldn't see the end of it. Inside the tunnel, there were many corpses lying everywhere. Weapons were scattered all over the ground.
Su Zimo glanced around.
Through the Dharmic weapons on the ground, it could be deduced that most of the owners of the corpses were at the Dharma Characteristic realm. There were also some Conjoint Body Mighty Figures and even Half-Martial Ancestor experts!
It was unknown how long these experts had been dead for. Their bodies were covered in dust.
Even Conjoint Body Mighty Figures and Half-Martial Ancestor experts whose bodies did not decay were left with tattered skeletons with empty clothes on them.
Some of these corpses were humanoid, while others were ferocious beasts. There were all kinds of them.
However, each corpse was tied with a purple-gold ribbon.
"Kunlun Clan?"
Su Zimo murmured softly. He had a vague guess but did not dare to confirm it.
This tunnel, including the extremely complicated karst cave outside, was clearly dug by someone. Without a method, one would not be able to enter or leave!
He wondered who the owner of this mystic realm was.
What was their motive?
He did not know what happened back then for so many people to die here.
"Master, was this where you were poisoned back then?"
Su Zimo asked.
After he entered this place, he had already released his spirit consciousness and scanned the surroundings. However, he did not discover any other living beings or dangers.
Extreme Fire nodded and looked at the storage bag beside one of the corpses, sighing softly. "Back when I came here, I was naturally tempted when I saw so many treasures on the ground. “
One could imagine how excited Extreme Fire was when he was still the Dharma Daojun back then. When he saw so many Dharmic weapons and storage bags left behind by Mighty Figures, he was naturally agitated.
Extreme Fire pointed at the corpse. "When I saw that there was no danger around, I went forward to take a look at the storage bag."
"To think that a Gu worm would run out the moment the storage bag was opened and bite me!"
"Because of that, I nearly died here!"
Su Zimo's gaze shifted and he discovered the corpse of a Gu worm not far away.
There was no need for Extreme Fire to return for revenge. Without the care of its master, the Gu worm was long dead.
Extreme Fire revealed a reminiscing expression and still had lingering fear. "At that time, I felt a wave of dizziness and did not have time to think. I crushed the Teleportation Talisman in my hands hurriedly."
"At the same time, I flicked my sleeves and swept up the items that fell out of the storage bag. Thereafter, I fell into the spatial tunnel and sent it to Cang Lang Mountain Range of the North Region."
Thereafter, Extreme Fire used his remnant consciousness to create a cave abode there and fought against the poison for 5,000 years before meeting Su Zimo and surviving in the end!
Everything could only be described as a freak combination of factors in retrospect.
Extreme Fire still lamented when he recalled the past.
"In that case, Night Spirit, the Illumination Stone and the Illumination Sword Formation all dropped from that storage bag?" Su Zimo asked.
"No."
Extreme Fire shook his head. "Indeed, many things dropped when I opened that storage bag. There was the Illumination Stone and the Illumination Sword Formation. However, there was no egg of Night Spirit."
At the mention of this, Extreme Fire seemed to be immersed in his memories as he frowned.
"At that time, my vision was already blurry. I felt like the egg of Night Spirit rolled over from the other side of the tunnel and jumped into the spatial rift formed by the Teleportation Talisman, teleporting out with me."
"Eh?"
Su Zimo's heart skipped a beat.
If Extreme Fire was not wrong, he was not the one who brought Night Spirit out. Instead, Night Spirit possessed sentience and chose Extreme Fire to leave Kunlun Ruins with his help!
That was not impossible.
Back then, in the depths of Beiming Town, the Kun Peng egg nurtured in the primordial divine spring possessed intelligence that was not inferior to an adult and had many complicated emotions.
That Kun Peng egg could even sense how terrifying Wu Dao's true body was!
Back then, Night Spirit was only an egg. How could it be in this mystic realm?
Why would Night Spirit choose Extreme Fire and leave Kunlun Ruins?
Su Zimo had a feeling that if he explored this mystic realm, there was a high chance he would obtain the answer he wanted!
Right then, Nien Qi let out a sleeptalk on Su Zimo's back.
"There's no rush to explore this mystic realm."
Su Zimo said in a deep voice, "Let's cultivate here first. It won't be too late to explore this mystic realm after we break through."
"Alright!"
Extreme Fire nodded in agreement.
There were many secret rooms on both sides of the tunnel.
Su Zimo and the other two arrived at the nearest secret room and entered to cultivate in seclusion!
