Chapter 112 Jade Palace
This section of the Qiaoyin Mountain range is just a small hill a few hundred meters high, and there are not many cave entrances that can accommodate people.
Based solely on the mountain path and human traces, Luo Sifan and his companion quickly located the so-called Zhitian Cave.
Stepping through the small, smooth opening, worn smooth by the footsteps and hands of those who had walked before, Uncle Qiao bravely led the way, venturing forward into the dimly lit cave passage.
Luo Sifan carefully investigated and followed closely behind.
A winding cave passage, barely wide enough for one person, took the two of them nearly fifteen minutes to traverse, leading deep into the mountainside. Even the temperature inside the cave was so low that a chill permeated the air.
Within the chilly air, there was a mysterious atmosphere that was familiar to Luo Sifan.
"Realm!"
Losfan's complex memories of his two lifetimes made him acutely aware of this cold and dangerous atmosphere.
The cave was much emptier now, and wisps of light flickered and disappeared in the darkness.
The echoes reverberated, and Luo Sifan's outburst startled Uncle Qiao, who was on high alert ahead.
"Realm?"
Uncle Qiao heard it clearly and naturally understood what Luo Sifan meant. He unconsciously repeated it to himself.
Even though he had cultivated to the Golden Core stage, this was still the first time he had ever seen a realm. Before, he had only seen this thing located at the extreme of heaven and earth in lectures and books.
The power of realms is both extremely strong and extremely soft, formless yet incredibly powerful, capable of contending with the power of heaven and earth.
Uncle Qiao dared not be careless, and even his footwork became extra cautious.
As a fragmented corner of the Xuan Tian Continent, Fangyuan City was naturally enveloped by the power of the realm; otherwise, it would probably have been devoured by the rules of heaven and earth of Yunzhou long ago.
The great upheaval caused by the clash between the two realms created many voids in the rules. Over the past eight hundred years, the rules of the two realms have become entangled, resulting in the peculiar phenomenon of Fangyuan City resembling a ghost realm.
"Uncle Qiao! Look at those elusive glows! Those are the light of annihilation; touch them and you'll die! Be careful!"
Luo Sifan quickly stepped forward and told Uncle Qiao what he had remembered.
Uncle Qiao was stunned upon hearing this. Several feet away in the darkness, various colored lights flickered like snakes, disappearing and reappearing without any pattern. How could he possibly get there?
"Let's observe first."
Luo Sifan and Uncle Qiao stood side by side, concentrating on their observation. Within the spiritual realm, the light of annihilation flickered and appeared, gradually sketching out a vast picture.
Uncle Qiao followed suit and obediently observed the situation in the cave with his spiritual power.
"The most intense conflict between the two realms occurs at the boundary passage, Uncle Qiao. Just find that place!"
Luo Sifan gave Uncle Qiao a few pointers in a low voice. The light of annihilation flickered thousands of times in the cave, and he gradually sketched out the shape of the interface between the two worlds.
Uncle Qiao understood immediately, and in no time he exclaimed with great joy:
"Go straight for ten zhang to the right and one zhang to the left, and there is indeed a disc-shaped cavity. Here, the frequency of the annihilation light appears is frighteningly high."
Luo Sifan nodded silently:
"As I observed, the diameter of this disc is nearly ten feet, which is indeed the shape of a boundary passage suitable for our passage!"
Suppressing their excitement, the two held their breath and strode towards the cluster of luminous snakes.
The fleeting streaks of strange light were now bright enough to make their faces look ghastly and eerily pale.
The closest beam of light was only a foot away from them, yet the power of the domain had not even touched them before it stunned their souls.
Both of them held firm, showing no fear whatsoever, afraid of making the other laugh at their own internal weakness.
It's unclear who created this boundary passage in Fangyuan City, but it certainly tests one's insight and composure.
Luo Sifan found it hard to believe that this was a natural phenomenon inherent to Fangyuan City. Naturally, he thought of the mischievous white-clad beauty and cursed her incessantly, which actually helped to dispel much of his fear.
The light curtain bent, squeezing out a dark void about ten feet in size, with a single point of light constantly positioned in the center. Luo Sifan and the other person stood there, staring at it for a long while.
The point of light was extremely small, yet extremely bright. Luo Sifan stared at it for a long time, and his vision blurred. He actually saw a clear and bright world through the point of light.
After Losfan's initial surprise, the world vanished as if a bubble had burst, leaving behind only a point of light in the deep black hole.
Uncle Qiao's face showed the same surprise as Luo Sifan's, it seems that the two had the same opinion.
"Young Master Lin, please allow me to proceed!"
Turning his head to glance at Luo Sifan, Uncle Qiao strode inside with a righteous and fearless air.
The black hole remained completely still, as if Uncle Joe were weightless, and swallowed him whole in the blink of an eye.
Luo Sifan followed suit, stubbornly pushing his way in. He squinted, his legs went weak, and he realized he was still alive and his limbs were intact.
Reflexively pushing off the ground, Luo Sifan felt a solid touch and almost flew into the air. He steadied himself in a flustered manner, and when he opened his eyes in a needle-like light, he was stunned by the scene before him for several breaths.
The soft, melodious voices of the nightingales suddenly filled his ears, and Luo Sifan found himself surrounded by a group of beautiful women who were scrutinizing him from head to toe without any politeness. They were all talking in a soft, flirtatious tone, but their words were so suggestive that they made Luo Sifan frown.
Beneath Luo Sifan's feet was a circular plaza paved with jade stones, with various colors of jade stones faintly engraved in an array, and the halo was fading away.
Five or six zhang away, the women in flowing, brightly colored dresses were clearly cultivators. Some were sitting, some were standing, and most of them had a small table in front of them with some strange trinkets on it. At first glance, it looked like a hastily put-together market.
Luo Sifan attracted the attention of the women like an outsider who had suddenly wandered into the market.
Losfan instinctively sensed a naked ill intent in the expressions of the women.
Straightening his clothes, Luo Sifan bowed once around the group, silently reminding himself of the danger, and then addressed the women in a loud voice:
"Lin Xiaozhi from Yuanzhou has come unexpectedly and has disturbed all the fairies."
Looking around, apart from the graceful figure and the faint fragrance, there was no trace of Uncle Qiao's presence anywhere in the room.
"Turns out she's still a virgin!"
Seeing his actions, the women's pretty faces showed surprise, and one of them even shouted rudely, quite excited.
The women were stirred up, and a wave of chatter swept through them. Luo Sifan vaguely understood some of it; most of it was about his appearance and physique, and the bolder ones were even more direct in speculating about his abilities…
Luo Sifan's face fell, as if he understood where he had ended up.
This place appears to be a sect that primarily cultivates female cultivators, but it's unclear which path they specialize in. If it involves dual cultivation and energy extraction, Luo Sifan might find it difficult to escape.
The women were all quite talkative, seemingly beginner cultivators in the sect, and had many reservations.
A few breaths later, a beautiful young woman in a red dress and colorful skirt, with a white silk shawl around her shoulders, stepped out from the crowd and walked towards Luo Sifan with a smile.
Judging from his demeanor, appearance, and level of understanding, he seems to be the king of the field.
"Young Master Lin, please don't be frightened by my sisters. They just haven't seen a man as outstanding as you for a long time, and they're a little flustered. This is the Jade Mystic Palace, a proper cultivation sect. My surname is Yao, and my given name is Yao. I am the outer sect leader of the Jade Mystic Palace here."
Yao Yao's face was subtle, with a half-smile. She approached Luo Sifan and politely bowed, then introduced herself to him clearly, like pearls falling onto a jade plate.
