C8 [the Birth of a Spirit in the Secret Realm]

Ji Qing's eyes lit up.

The Queen Mother thought that he didn't believe her and repeated her words again. She was so serious that she could swear with three fingers raised.

Ji Qing's mouth unconsciously curved up.

Cultivators were most afraid of karmic ties. Once they made a promise, they would definitely do it. Otherwise, when they were transcending the tribulation, it would be reflected in their bodies. Therefore, Ji Qing was not afraid that the Queen Mother would go back on her word.

And this time, he could get the Peaches of Immortality and get closer to the Queen Mother.

It could be said that he had gained two things at once.

This was not even including the fact that he would meet with a crisis in the future and come to him.

This business was worth it.

Ji Qing immediately said, "In that case, I will accept the favor of the Queen Mother."

"Of course." The Queen Mother nodded.

She looked at the Mount Buzhou and then retracted her gaze, planning to bid farewell to Ji Qing. "There are many precious things on Mount Buzhou. Fellow Daoist, you have a way to recover your spiritual energy. You can take a walk there again. However, I will be leaving first."

The Queen Mother did not have a way to recover her spiritual energy. That was why Ji Qing had met her earlier.

Although Ji Qing had transferred some spiritual energy to her, he had used up all of it when he was collecting the Peaches of Immortality.

Now that she had no strength to support herself, it was useless for her to stay here.

It was better for her to leave the mountain first and recuperate, so that she would not be attacked by the Chaos and leave behind any hidden dangers.

Ji Qing nodded and watched the Queen Mother leave the mountain.

Seeing the Queen Mother's figure quickly disappear in front of his eyes, Ji Qing's excited mood also calmed down.

No wonder the Heavenly Dao had been urging him to go up the mountain.

It was all for the sake of repaying the kindness of the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother's future achievements would be extraordinary. If he could be on good terms with her, it would definitely be of great benefit to the human race, and it would be a good thing.

Ji Qing turned his head and looked at Mount Buzhou again.

He slowly walked up the mountain.

Even if he didn't have any other opportunities, he might be able to find some other treasures.

With this thought in mind, Ji Qing walked up the mountain casually.

Just as he took two steps, a bright light flashed in front of Ji Qing's eyes.

"Hmm?"

When he looked over, he saw nothing.

However, Ji Qing knew very well that he must have seen something just now. There were very few cultivators who could see things with their eyes, unless there was an illusion.

There was an illusion here?

It shouldn't be possible.

If there was an illusion when the Queen Mother took the Peach Tree, she would have activated it long ago. She would have waited for him to come.

Ji Qing pondered for a moment and took half a step back.

As soon as he moved, the light appeared in front of him again.

Ji Qing raised his eyebrows in understanding.

"As expected."

He turned around and walked towards the light.

It was a restriction, located under a stone platform. Beside the stone platform was the place where the Queen Mother had taken the Peach Tree.

"Could this be my opportunity?"

As soon as Ji Qing finished speaking, a strange feeling rose in his heart, as if it was acknowledging his words.

Ji Qing's heart surged.

The Heavenly Dao was giving him a reply.

The strength of the karmic luck within the opportunity that could make the Heavenly Dao respond could be imagined.

At this moment, the sky changed color, the sun and moon rotated in the blink of an eye, and the day and night alternated in the blink of an eye. Everything happened in a split second. Before Ji Qing could react, he had already disappeared from Mount Buzhou.

When he came back to his senses, the scenery around Ji Qing had already changed.

He looked around and saw that everything around him was filled with surging gas-like things. The white gas around him spread out in all directions, and the further it went, the darker the color became, and the surging gas became even more violent, as if one could faintly hear the rolling sound of golden thunder.

Ji Qing's soul shook.

He looked over in surprise and saw that the surging gas was even more violent, like a wave, surging towards him.

Ji Qing subconsciously wanted to dodge.

As his thoughts moved, he realized that his body seemed to be restrained by something, and he was completely unable to move.

The gas was like a sharp sword, stabbing towards his heart and forehead.

Its momentum was like tens of thousands of horses galloping, full of killing intent.

Cold sweat began to appear on Ji Qing's forehead.

He almost subconsciously activated the Kongtong Seal and activated the magic treasure to support him on top of his head.

The Kongtong Seal let out a soft cry and released tens of thousands of golden lights, protecting Ji Qing in the middle.

Only then did Ji Qing slightly heave a sigh of relief.

He looked at the gas that was close to him, and his wild beating heart was like a drum.

Ji Qing had never thought that there would actually be so many chaotic things here. Could it be that the Queen Mother had been entangled by the chaotic things before? It must be related to this place.

Fortunately, he had the Kongtong Seal, which could protect him.

Otherwise, he would definitely be devoured by the Chaos.

He had no one to help him here, so he could only wait for his death.

Just as this thought came to his mind, Ji Qing was shocked to find that the Chaos instantly ignored the defense of the Kongtong Seal and rushed towards him.

Ji Qing was shocked and quickly put away the Kongtong Seal. He put it in front of his chest and sent a stream of Spiritual Energy into it. The Kongtong Seal shook and a sharp golden light shot out from it.

Ji Qing originally thought that even if he couldn't dispel the Chaos, he would at least be able to block it for a while.

Who knew that the golden light shot out from the Kongtong Seal would not encounter any resistance at all and directly shoot into the void.

The Chaos did not slow down and directly pounced towards Ji Qing.

Ji Qing let out a strange cry.

When he came back to his senses, he found that the Chaos had directly passed him and was quickly rushing behind him.

And he was fine?

"What's going on?"

Ji Qing felt around his body with a puzzled expression.

In the blink of an eye, Ji Qing understood.

"It's an illusion array."

Although he understood, Ji Qing's face turned black.

He had been here for so long, but he didn't realize that this was an illusion array.

If this array didn't have any malicious intent towards him, he would have been dead by now.

Since it was an illusion array, there was naturally a way to break it.

Ji Qing circulated his Spiritual Energy and looked around for a long time, but he couldn't see any flaws.

Ji Qing was speechless for a while.

As expected of a secret realm that could be sensed by the Heavenly Dao, it was not to be underestimated.

Today, he was afraid that he would be trapped here.

However, he was not worried. Since the Heavenly Dao had guided him here, there must be other mysteries here. He would not die so easily.

He would stay here and see what mysteries there were.

Ji Qing was relieved and put away the Kongtong Seal. He stood there and silently looked around.

In the array, the chaos was surging and roaring like an ocean.

Although it did not make any sound, Ji Qing could clearly feel the vibration in his soul.

Fortunately, his soul was protected by the Heavenly Dao. Although it was a little shaken, it was not a big deal.

There was no time in the array. Ji Qing also could not feel the passage of time.

He stood there as if he had fused with the world.

The chaos surged even more violently. In this endless sea of chaos, there were actually living beings.

Ji Qing looked at it in surprise.

One...

Two...

One hundred...

One thousand...

Three thousand...

...

The speed at which the living beings evolved was getting faster and faster. In the blink of an eye, there were thousands of living beings living and evolving in this sea of chaos.
