Chapter 890: Chapter 429: Updating...

"Exactly, exactly, Tianfu is absolutely right. He’s still young and only at the Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer; standing out isn’t necessarily a good thing."

Celestial Soul hurriedly chimed in.

He must eliminate any potential threats that could expose the true situation of Tianfu.

Tianxiu immediately sank into deep thought, gazing intently at the Yellow Spirit Bamboo before nodding and responding, "I was just too excited earlier, because its appearance might possibly change the centuries-long struggle between us and the evil anomalies."

For thousands of years, the sudden emergence of the evil anomalies has left cultivators in the Celestial Net State helpless, forced to let it appear, massacre, and devour at will.

Cultivators attempting to analyze, understand, and expel it are countless, but none have truly succeeded.

Thus, the value of the Yellow Spirit Bamboo speaks for itself.

Tianfu then spoke up, "Aunt, when you leave the sect, you can come anytime to take it away."

"Alright!"

Tianxiu nodded.

She then rushed forward to give Tianfu a fragrant hug.

"I didn’t spoil you for nothing, kid!"

Tianfu: Ugh...

...

The next day.

Tianxiu returned to Tianfu’s cave dwelling, taking away the entire two-foot-tall Yellow Spirit Bamboo and informing Tianfu of her departure from the sect.

Early tomorrow morning.

Accompanying her would be seven cultivators of Foundation Establishment Perfection.

Much to Tianfu’s surprise, this aunt made a promise before leaving, swearing never to reveal the source of the Yellow Spirit Bamboo, even unto death.

To this, Tianfu just wanted to say it was really unnecessary.

He had never doubted his aunt’s promise.

After Tianxiu left, Tianfu took out a newly purchased Yellow Spirit Bamboo seed and planted it.

Seeing this, Da Mao hurriedly came over to dig the soil.

Digging with great enthusiasm.

While Tianfu was back at the cave dwelling having a drink, Da Mao fetched Ermao from the pool and dropped it into the soil pit.

"You really are a dog!"

Tianfu quickly ran over to retrieve Ermao and threw it back into the pool.

Just then, Qinghuan arrived, holding a circular token.

"Sister Qinghuan."

Qinghuan glanced at Da Mao and Ermao, and helplessly said, "Kid, you still have the leisure to raise such worldly things in your room; if you shut yourself away randomly, they’ll just starve."

"Once starved, it’ll be feasting time."

Tianfu grinned, glancing at Da Mao who was running circles around Ermao outside the cave dwelling.

Qinghuan was left speechless.

"Enough of your mischievous talk. This token was sent by people from the Law Enforcement Hall, with it you can enter the sect’s Biyou Secret Realm about to open in a month for a year of cultivation. I just asked Master, she said it’s a gift from the Elder Master."

With that, Qinghuan handed over the silver circular token.

Tianfu took it and hurriedly asked, "Biyou Secret Realm?"

Qinghuan answered, "No one knows the origin of the Biyou Secret Realm, but it opens every three years, and cultivating inside it for one year is equivalent to ten years of cultivation in the Wuji Sect Outer Disciples. Usually, only disciples in Qi Cultivation Perfection who hope to break through to Foundation Establishment get this opportunity."

"Then why me?"

"Master fought for it for you, to help you grow faster." At this, a hint of sadness flashed in Qinghuan’s eyes.

The next moment, that sadness was forcefully suppressed by a sentence.

"Can I refuse?"

Tianfu hurriedly handed the token back.

Qinghuan raised her eyebrows, puzzled, "Don’t worry, it’s given by the Elder Master, who is the Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall. It’s an authoritative matter; outsiders wouldn’t dare comment. You can go confidently, without any concern."

"No, it’s just that I..." Tianfu casually came up with an excuse, "I think it’s more suitable for you, Sister. Maybe you’ll be able to charge into the Foundation Establishment Realm after returning from the Secret Realm. If I go, at most, I’ll reach the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer, but what’s the use of that?"

Qinghuan was immediately at a loss.

This kid is indeed loyal and righteous.

What a pity.

I can’t take it.

This is the last thing Master managed to secure for you.

"No way!" With that, Qinghuan forcibly pressed Tianfu’s hand back and then left without looking back.

Seeing this, Tianfu stood there dumbfounded.

"This..."

This is useless to me.

I can’t even enter the state of cultivation, and I only want to be a lazy fish.

Forget it.

I’ll give it to that girl Tian Yue at that time.

...

Three days later.

Tianxiu and her party arrived at the Silver Shell Mountain Range, Yongkang City, three thousand miles from the Wuji Sect.

Just one or two months ago, this Yongkang City was the most prosperous large city within five hundred miles, with a cultivator population exceeding one million.

Now, it was enveloped by pitch-black fog, reduced to a place of deathly silence.

"This anomaly has already spread nearly three hundred miles, according to past records, such an evil anomaly should be able to devour at most late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators; we should have no problem entering briefly." The black-clad elder leading the nine people said, staring sternly at the anomaly in the distance.

This person is the leader of the Wuji Sect for this expedition.

Vice Hall Master of the Inspection Hall—Situ Kuiseng.

He is also recognized as the third strongest among the Inner Sect Foundation Establishment Perfection cultivators of the Wuji Sect.

Soon, Situ Kuiseng withdrew his gaze and instead focused on Tianxiu and another early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.

He’s the same early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator who survived with Tianxiu initially.

"Once inside the anomaly, we’ll protect you; you don’t need to worry about anything, just lead us to the epicenter of the anomaly outbreak." Situ Kuiseng spoke gravely, then immediately took out a bell-shaped magical artifact from his storage bag.

"Let’s go!"

With these words, Sikong Kuiseng led the way towards the anomaly.

Tianxiu and the others followed closely; upon stepping into the anomaly, the black fog spread as if it had eyes and approached them.
