The yandere senior sister pretended to be stupid to trick me, it made me feel numb!

Chapter 948 Entering the Ancient Secret Realm

With the help of a top-tier dual cultivation technique and Zhao Mu's special physique, the two of them had basically recovered from their injuries after staying in the cave for a day and a night.

Xia Ruoxi is not only more beautiful than before, but her hairstyles have also become much more elaborate.

At this moment, Zhao Mu had already put away his bed, dressed himself, and looked energetic.

Xia Ruoxi went to the pool to wash herself thoroughly, and even pulled Zhao Mu in with her, saying that she wanted to clean herself up completely so that Xia Ningzhi wouldn't find out about their relationship.

Sometimes, Zhao Mu couldn't understand the meaning behind Xia Ruoxi's actions.

Deception?

What's the point? Do you really think people can't guess it?

However, if the "green tea" girl wants to play along, he's willing to cooperate, since that sneaky feeling is really quite exciting.

only.....

While I was washing, it started again for no apparent reason.

They lingered in the cave until dusk, when the fiery red sunset slanted into the cave, and Zhao Mu and Xia Ruoxi finally emerged one after the other.

He remains in high spirits.

This is what makes the top-tier dual cultivation technique so precious.

Just like back then, in the Blood Pool, Zhao Mu and Little Phoenix lasted for more than forty years. Not only did they not suffer any losses, but both of them made progress.

With his help, the little phoenix even refined its essence blood ahead of schedule, completed its transformation, and entered the ranks of the seventh tier.

"Let's go back!"

"Ok!"

Zhao Mu stretched and was in a good mood. Although he suffered considerable losses this time, he finally managed to kill Xu Shenghao.

"By the way, since that old geezer Ji Beiwang values ​​Xu Shenghao so much, then what about you...?"

To be honest, the Xuantian Dao Sect is so mysterious that Zhao Mu can't see through it at all, so he's quite worried that Xia Ruoxi will be in danger after returning. As for not returning, that would be like protesting too much, telling Ji Beiwang directly that he killed his disciple.

Therefore, even if he didn't want to go back to the Xuantian Dao Sect, he had no choice but to.

Moreover, since they coveted the fragments of the Demon-Slaying Sword, Xia Ruoxi had to go back and scout ahead to see if the Xuan Tian Dao Sect had actually intercepted them.

"There's no need to worry about that. The Grand Elder doesn't only have Xu Shenghao as a disciple. Moreover, Xu Shenghao seems to be wary of the Grand Elder. Over the years, whenever there's a special operation, he almost always goes out without the Grand Elder's knowledge."

"I'm sure it's the same this time; the Grand Elder has no idea this guy is here."

"Furthermore, didn't you say before that when you used the secret method to kill this guy, you discovered that he had more than thirty backup plans? Who can know which one is the real Xu Shenghao!"

"It's a pity this guy was too ruthless; he didn't leave anything behind. That secret technique is a real shame!"

To be honest, not only Xia Ruoxi, but even Zhao Mu was somewhat tempted by Xu Shenghao's secret technique—a substitution technique that could even allow one to block a deadly attack at the cost of physical shattering.

This is almost equivalent to having an extra life.

No, no, no, it means many more lives.

Because Xu Shenghao didn't have the Purple Spring, but he did.

What a pity, what a real pity!

"Should we go and take a look at that ancient secret realm?"

"Can!"

Zhao Mu nodded slightly. Although he knew the chances were slim, he thought, "What if Xu Shenghao's secret technique really came from the ancient secret realm beneath the small pool? That would be a huge win."

After reaching an agreement, the two immediately turned back.

After about two days, the people who had gathered there had all dispersed.

Because apart from the traces left by the explosion, there was nothing there.

As for the secret of that small pond, no one has been able to discover it.

Because, if Xia Ruoxi hadn't reminded him, even Zhao Mu wouldn't have noticed anything unusual; he just thought it was an ordinary little pond.

"Go, get down!"

Without hesitation, the two jumped.

Exploring secret realms is no problem for Zhao Mu, as long as the "green tea" (a term for a woman who is overly cunning and manipulative) is there. She's not afraid of dying inside. The female lead's luck is no joke. Not only will she not die inside, but she can also squeeze out all the benefits she has.

The pool is a real pool, there is no faking it.

Even after entering, Zhao Mu did not find anything unusual.

However, this small pool may seem unremarkable, but underneath lies a hidden world with a large space.

From the outside, it looks to be at most a dozen or so feet in diameter, but inside, at its widest point, it's more than several thousand feet in diameter, and it's also quite deep.

The further down you go, the weaker the light becomes.

"We haven't found anything. Where exactly is the entrance to this secret realm?"

After searching for a long time, Zhao Mu had no clue whatsoever and could only pin his hopes on the big green tea.

"I haven't found it either. Let's keep going down and take a look!"

"it is good!"

As he continued to descend, the darkness gradually faded away. Zhao Mu discovered that there were luminous minerals scattered around him. They seemed natural, but upon closer inspection, they appeared to be man-made.

"I've got it! It should be just ahead. Let's go!"

After diving for a while, Xia Ruoxi suddenly made a discovery, which delighted Zhao Mu.

Sure enough, there was no chance of failure when following the female lead to find the secret realm.

A moment later, the two arrived at a pile of rubble.

“Zhao Mu, look, the triangular stone in the very center has unusual spatial fluctuations. This is probably the so-called entrance to the ancient secret realm.”

"Should we just go in?"

"That won't do. Let's use this to scout ahead first!"

With a wave of her hand, Xia Ruoxi summoned a small reptile in front of them. It resembled a tortoise but had long limbs and moved very fast.

"puppet?"

"Ok!"

Xia Ruoxi nodded.

After the initial shock, Zhao Mu quickly found it unsurprising.

Since Xia Ruoxi is a highly skilled array master, it's not surprising that she's also involved in puppetry. After all, the most crucial step in puppetry is inscribing various array patterns, which is precisely what Xia Ruoxi excels at.

swoosh~

Almost instantly, a flash of light appeared as the puppet approached the triangular stone, and then it disappeared.

Xia Ruoxi was right; this was the entrance to the secret realm.

However, for now, they still had to wait for feedback from the puppet. The two of them had just entered, after all, it was not a good choice to just randomly enter such an unfamiliar secret realm.

A quarter of an hour passed, then another quarter of an hour.

The puppet still did not appear.

Something's not right!

Xia Ruoxi frowned slightly, and then took out several more puppets.

A new batch of twelve explorer puppets lined up to enter the secret realm.

The two waited again.

This time, there's finally a result.

Of the twelve puppets that entered, only one staggered out, its surface still covered in flames that could not be extinguished by water, and it was frantically devouring the core of the formation.

Click click~

After the puppet transmitted the information to Xia Ruoxi, it was completely burned.

"how?"

Zhao Mu asked out of curiosity.

"It is indeed a bit dangerous, but nothing will happen when you first go in."

Xia Ruoxi suggested, "Let's go in and take a look."

"it is good."

Zhao Mu nodded, and the two held hands. With a flash of light, they immediately disappeared from the spot.

When they opened their eyes, they were already inside the ancient secret realm.

The scene before them left both of them quite shocked.
