I am a full-level celestial master, you let me enter the strange talk of rules?

However, just as she moved—

"Buzz!"

An invisible, solid barrier made of chaotic energy was instantly created, like an inverted bowl, completely sealing off the space within dozens of meters around her!
The barrier shimmered with light, emanating a chilling, binding power.

It was Zhang Yangqing, who was hiding even higher up, who made the move!
The stalker crashed headfirst into the barrier, making a dull thud. He was jolted backward and finally collapsed helplessly to the ground.

The shadow that had enveloped her dissipated, revealing her true appearance.

That's a woman.

A woman whose beauty is breathtaking.

She possessed a face that could launch a thousand ships, and skin as white as snow, so delicate it seemed to break at a touch.

Her eyebrows were like distant mountains shrouded in mist, and her eyes were like autumn waters rippling across the surface. They were a pair of captivating peach blossom eyes, and the way they looked seemed to steal one's heart and soul.

Beneath her pert nose were two full, glossy red lips, like ripe cherries, which were now slightly pursed due to the pain.

Her figure is slender and graceful, with curves in all the right places. Even in a simple gray outfit, her breathtaking curves are still undeniable.

She exudes a unique aura that blends fragility, charm, and mystery, enough to make most men feel pity and lower their guard at first sight.

She collapsed to the ground, raising her tear-filled, peach-blossom eyes to look at the approaching chairman and Zhang Yangqing, who was gracefully descending from the tree. Her voice trembled with just the right amount of grievance as she spoke:

"Please spare my life, brothers. I... I meant no harm. I just saw that this brother seemed to be injured and was alone, so I came to check on him. Maybe I could help and exchange some information along the way."

Her vulnerable appearance evoked pity in me.

This scene instantly divided the audience watching on the big screen into several camps:

I think this woman is quite innocent. She hasn't made a move, so she's probably not lying. She just wanted to exchange information.

You're blind! She hasn't acted because she's not confident! Judging by her stealth and tracking skills, she's definitely a veteran! Once she's confident, the chairman will be in danger!
The people upstairs are all too extreme. I think this might be an opportunity. If Zhang Tianshi could take her in as a follower, it would be both pleasing to the eye and give him another helper. How wonderful!
Exactly! What bad intentions could such a beautiful young lady have? She must be forced to live here.

Beauty equals justice? Have you forgotten rule number 8? Trapped outsiders are in danger!
Within the world of ghost stories, the chairman remained unmoved by her stunning beauty, his tone still icy: "Since you know your current predicament, then be honest and tell us what you know, and perhaps we can consider sparing your life."

Upon hearing this, the beautiful woman with peach blossom eyes nodded quickly, appearing obedient and compliant: "Yes, yes, whatever you two gentlemen want to ask, I will answer to the best of my knowledge."

Her eyes flickered slightly, and she asked, seemingly unintentionally, "Judging from your appearances, you two brothers haven't been here long, have you?"

Zhang Yangqing stood to the side, intending to warn the chairman about the woman's verbal trap, when he saw a cold glint flash in the chairman's eyes. A terrifying pressure, as if it were tangible, suddenly erupted from his body, directly impacting the beautiful woman with peach blossom eyes! "Pfft!"

Caught off guard, the beautiful woman was shaken by the powerful aura, causing her blood to surge and spit out a mouthful of blood. Her face instantly paled, and a look of horror and disbelief flashed in her eyes.

The chairman snorted coldly, his tone filled with undisguised killing intent: "Heh, you're quite something. I haven't even asked you anything, and you're already trying to extract information from me? This is a warning. If you don't behave, the next strike will be your life!"

Seeing the chairman's decisiveness and his complete lack of sway from beauty, Zhang Yangqing nodded inwardly, feeling utterly relieved.

This woman is no saint. Her stunningly beautiful face and figure alone are her most lethal weapons. Countless lecherous men will fall into her trap.

Her survival here was not solely due to luck; her beauty and intelligence (or perhaps cunning) were probably her greatest assets.

The beautiful woman with peach blossom eyes clutched her chest, struggling to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth. In her heart, she had already cursed Zhang Yangqing and the chairman a thousand times, but on the surface, she forced a smile and dared not play any tricks: "Yes, yes, yes, please ask, brother. This little lady will never dare to do it again."

The chairman was satisfied and asked in a deep voice, "Tell me your experience in detail."

This question was so cleverly phrased that even Zhang Yangqing couldn't help but want to applaud the chairman.

If you directly ask, "Where is the Ship of Life and Death?" or "How do I find the Tree of Immortality?", it would be tantamount to exposing your core objective and intelligence gaps. The other party could then use this information to fabricate lies and set traps.

Asking about "experience" puts you in complete control. You can filter and judge useful information from the other person's narrative, while the other person remains clueless about their background and intentions.

This is a battle of wits between masters; every word they utter is a game of strategy.

The beautiful woman with peach blossom eyes was taken aback, seemingly not expecting this question.

She blinked her captivating peach blossom eyes, then began to speak softly and gently, her voice carrying a hint of wistful reminiscence:

"I was originally born in a small plane called 'Black Stone Realm,' a place where resources were scarce and the strong were respected. My family was poor from a young age, and they sold me to survive. I had no choice but to work as a miner in the dark and sunless Xuan Iron Mine, spending my days with the cold ore and the foreman's whip."

She began to tell a long and winding story: how she accidentally discovered a "Star Core Ore" containing strange energy in the mine, how she risked her life to secretly hide it, and how she secretly cultivated with its energy;
How did he get hunted down by the mine owner after his strength was exposed, and how did he escape all the way, experiencing countless life-and-death crises and the pain of separation?
How did he struggle to survive in that dog-eat-dog world, and ultimately, through a combination of luck and ruthlessness, reach the pinnacle of that plane?

Finally, in pursuit of the legendary path to ascension, guided by a secret ancient scroll obtained by chance, and after overcoming countless hardships, they finally found the entrance to the Mountain of Immortality and arrived here.
She spoke with great emotion, rich in detail, and sincere in feeling, as if she were telling an epic tale of struggle.

As Zhang Yangqing and the chairman listened, their expressions gradually changed from serious to surprised, and finally they even started to break down.

Those eyes clearly said: We asked you this?! We asked about your experiences after arriving at the Mountain of Immortality! You're going to start from the beginning of time, right? Your experiences are so dramatic they could fill a million-word novel!

Looking at the speechless expressions of the two men, the beautiful woman with peach blossom eyes pouted aggrievedly. Her peach blossom eyes were misty, as if to say: This older brother made me tell you everything, I've been telling you since birth, and I haven't hidden a single thing. (End of this chapter)
