474 All the Treasures Will Come Later
Since ghost cultivators could enter this place, Dong Xi guessed that they could come from both the Beast Realm and the Demon Realm.
With the explanation from Long Wei just now, everyone frowned.
Cui Liu crossed his arms and said, “I haven’t seen any treasures since I came in. There are so many opponents. It’s not interesting at all.”
Tie Zhu smiled and said, “Don’t be anxious. From what we’ve seen before, we can see that this Secret Realm is not an ordinary Secret Realm. The owner of the Secret Realm should be a mighty figure with a very high cultivation base. Perhaps, the treasures will come later.”
“That’s right. Where are we going next?” Cui Liu nodded.
Dong Xi was also prepared. Dong Xi said, “Let’s find a place to stay first. I want to refine pills.”
Everyone said in surprise, “What? You want to… Refine pills?”
Only Tie Zhu was not surprised at all, because he had been surprised a long time ago.
Dong Xi shrugged and said helplessly,” I don’t know how long I’ve been here. You people don’t even bring Fasting Pills when you come out. Now that it’s safe, if I don’t refine more, I’ll have to starve in the future!”
The Fasting Pill was a third-grade pill, so Dong Xi was at least a third-grade alchemist.
This really made them want to curry favor with her.
Dong Xi found a house and took out her pill furnace.
Dong Xi could have stopped borrowing the Earth Fire long ago, but the only drawback was that she could not keep up with the spiritual energy.
Of course, Dong Xi did not think about refining too many pills. Five or six bottles of pills should be enough.
Everyone stayed in the inn and saw that Dong Xi had not come out for three days.
Long Wei leaned against the window and looked at the neighboring room. Not long after, Shangguan Yun’er also opened the window to see if Dong Xi had come out of seclusion.
Long Wei smiled and said, “You two are really polite. You even want to sleep in separate rooms. Fellow Daoist Dong is good in every way, but he doesn’t touch his wife. With such a beautiful wife, why don’t you enjoy yourselves?”
Shangguan Yun’er frowned and said, “None of your business!”
Long Wei was not angry. He said, “It has nothing to do with me, it has nothing to do with me. I’m the most despicable one. Don’t tell Fellow Daoist Dong.”
After all, Long Wei wanted to be friends with Dong Xi.
No, more than friends. They had to be apprenticed to a master. Only a master-disciple relationship could last.
Coincidentally, Dong Xi opened the door at this time. Hearing Long Wei’s words, she said, “What? Don’t tell me what?”
Long Wei coughed lightly and immediately said, “Nothing. I’m just praising you.”
Shangguan Yun’er glanced at Long Wei, but Shangguan Yun’er did not say anything.
Tie Zhu walked out and said, “Junior Brother, you’ve finally come out. If you hadn’t come out, I would’ve called for you. I heard from others that there will be a temple fair in the north of the city tomorrow afternoon.”
“Everyone?” Dong Xi asked in surprise. “What if I don’t go?”
Tie Zhu was stunned when he heard this.
“I don’t know. Those people didn’t say anything.” Tie Zhu came back to his senses.
“Alright, we’ll see tomorrow,” Dong Xi said with a smile.
She had to go. If she did not follow the setting of the Secret Realm, he would gain nothing in this Secret Realm.
Dong Xi did not know what Senior Tie Zhu meant when he said he had to go until noon the next day.
It was just noon, and before anyone had time to think about whether they should go or not, the scene changed instantly.
She stood in front of a tall temple, which had 81 steps.
Dong Xi stood in the crowd and found that she was surrounded by strangers.
Dong Xi felt fine, but she could not find Tie Zhu and the others.
Perhaps not all of these people were cultivators. There should be natives in the city. Everyone looked at the temple with devout expressions.
It was because of this that Dong Xi was able to instantly recognize the locals and outsiders when she looked around.
Just as Dong Xi was about to look for Senior Brother Tie Zhu and the others, she heard someone say, “Line up and offer incense.”
Upon hearing this, Dong Xi and the others were pushed into the queue by the natives.
Every time anyone wanted to leave, they would be pushed back by the natives. The native said, “Don’t run around. That’s disrespectful to the gods.”
Dong Xi did not move. Instead, she took out her communication jade slip and sent a message to Tie Zhu and the others, telling them to line up and meet up after they left.
Shangguan Yun’er and the others were not as nervous as before when they found that they could still contact each other using their communication jade slips.
After all, her cultivation was low, and she was still so passive. Anyone would feel very uneasy.
The line slowly moved forward. The people at the back of the line were already losing their patience.
A person wanted to leave, but was immediately stopped by the natives. This person was instantly furious.
“Can I not offer incense?” the man asked. “If you want to line up, then line up. I don’t want to!”
The native immediately said, “You can’t disrespect the gods!”
