Cultivating immortality relies on spatial abilities; defying fate to become the protagonist.

Chapter 211

The crowd looked at each other, and only after confirming that the leader of the Heavenly Yin Sect had escaped did they breathe a sigh of relief.

Gu Shihan looked in the direction where the cult leader disappeared and said, "We need to continue to become stronger, otherwise we will always be on the defensive. This Tianyin Cult Leader must be in the late stage of Mahayana."

“I believed the saying ‘there are heavens beyond heavens, and people beyond people,’ but I never expected that so many of us would still be no match for him, and that he would actually escape. What’s worse, we even fell for his trick. Shi Han, did he seem to be plotting against us today? Has he been watching us all along?” Duan Siqi said weakly.

"Perhaps! Whether he's specifically targeting us is unclear, but his methods are truly unpredictable!"

"Girl, I have a feeling that our being brought here wasn't a coincidence. Our arrival must mean something, we just don't know it yet!" Shi Qinghan said after thinking for a moment.

Mo Yu nodded and said, "Junior brother is right. Isn't it said that there is a cause for every effect? ​​In the Spirit Realm, we were sent to this Heaven in order to open the Tower of Babel. Opening the Tower of Babel inexplicably brought us a lot of merit, which can be considered lucky, but there was also misfortune."

Unfortunately, we are too weak, and survival is difficult; fortunately, we have arrived at the place that all cultivators in the spirit realm yearn for without ascending. Our arrival must have some significance.

Gu Shihan pondered for a moment and said, "Yes, what Senior Brother and Big Brother said is right. We should be mostly lucky. In this place where strength is respected, we were able to survive with the Golden Core cultivation and enter the Nascent Soul stage in just over ten years. Who would believe that?"

After resting, the group continued their journey. The more they saw, the stronger their resolve to become became.

On this day, the nine people arrived at the edge of a forest, a famously dangerous place in the Heavenly Realm, but also the best place for training – the Misty Forest.

As its name suggests, the Misty Forest is shrouded in mysterious mist all year round, and the closer you get to the center, the thicker the mist becomes.

Those who come here for training can basically only operate in the outer and central areas. The further in you go, the higher the level of the mythical beasts, and the more irritable they become—they are not to be trifled with. Another thing is that the fog is poisonous; the thicker it is, the more toxic it is. Anyone who wants to enter the Misty Forest needs to be fully prepared.

Although the Misty Forest is fraught with danger, it is also rich in resources, and many kinds of spiritual herbs are only produced in the Misty Forest, which is why many cultivators have to come here.

Gu Shihan and his group of nine came along the way; they didn't come intentionally, but since they were just nearby, they were bound to go in and explore.

The outer perimeter posed no danger to them. They traveled through the forest and one day came to the foot of a mountain.
The mountains in front of us towered into the clouds, shrouded in mist, giving the impression that they were different from other parts of the Misty Forest. The trees here were tall and strangely shaped, like menacing monsters.

Another point is that the atmosphere here seems to be more refreshing than in other places, making people feel more comfortable.

"This place is a bit strange, everyone be careful," Gu Shihhan said cautiously.

“I understand. I feel the difference too. The long-term oppressive feeling has lessened. Could there be treasure here?” Duan Siqi thought for a moment and said.

Suddenly, a melodious flute tune filled the air. With the sound of the flute, the crowd seemed to be immersed in an endless sea of ​​blood, with countless wronged souls rushing towards them, filling them with fear.

Gu Shihan suppressed her discomfort, circulated her spiritual power to protect her mind, and shouted, "Guard your true self! This is an illusion! Don't be afraid, don't fall into it, the consequences of falling into it are unimaginable."

Mo Yu and the others were all determined people. They were only momentarily distracted by the illusion, but they quickly came to their senses and focused their minds.

At this moment, a woman dressed in white slowly emerged from the thick fog. Her face was exquisitely beautiful, yet she exuded a coldness, and her eyes were clear and unwavering.

"Why have you trespassed into my territory? This is not a place you are allowed to set foot in." The woman's tone was cold, yet gentle. Gu Shihan stepped forward and explained, "Senior, we had no intention of offending you; we were just passing by."

The woman looked them over and after a moment said, "Since you mean no harm, leave quickly."

There is a great danger hidden deep in this forest, one that you are not capable of handling right now.

Meeting is fate. You can go to the Immortal-Seeking Peak, a hundred miles away. There is an opportunity there; whether you can obtain it depends on your luck!

The group exchanged glances, thanked the woman, and then turned to head in the direction she had indicated. Whether it was an opportunity or a trap, they had to go and investigate since they knew about it.

As for the depths of the forest the woman mentioned, we can explore them later; it's the same thing.

It's not that everyone is scared, it's just that life is the most important thing. Knowing there is danger and knowing that one's cultivation is not enough, one should avoid it if possible. A wise person knows when to yield!
The group didn't rush on their way. They walked and stopped frequently in the misty forest, gaining quite a bit along the way.

"Sigh..." A series of soft sighs seemed to echo in their ears. "Shi Han, have you sensed anything unusual?"

"I can feel it. There's a faint sigh lingering in my ears. Doesn't the voice sound a little familiar?"

Xingbai jumped out and said, "Hanhan, this is that female cultivator's sigh. She seems a little melancholy, heartbroken, and sad. She may have a story! But she's right, you are still too weak. Even if you know something, you can't do anything about it."

With doubts in their hearts, the group headed towards Seeking Immortal Peak. The journey was not peaceful, with low-level immortal beasts occasionally appearing, but they were all easily dealt with.

Upon arriving at the foot of Xunxian Peak, one sees only swirling clouds and mist, with the mountain peak appearing and disappearing indistinctly.

As soon as the group stepped onto the mountain path, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed, as if they had entered another space.

As the group was filled with surprise and doubt, a stone door appeared in front of them, covered with ancient runes.

Gu Shihan stepped forward and tried to push it, but the stone door didn't budge. The others didn't stand idly by either, and they all pushed with all their might, but it remained solid and didn't react at all.

Just as everyone was racking their brains, Xingbai suddenly pointed to a small hole on the side of the door and said, "This looks like a place to put things. Hanhan, did you pick up a stone like this?"

Gu Shihan remembered that in the same place where the woman in white had appeared, she had picked up a strange jade stone. Could that be the key to opening this stone door? Gu Shihan took out the stone and examined it. It seemed to resemble the hole in the stone door. She tried inserting it into the hole.

The stone door slowly opened, revealing a dazzling golden light inside, and a suction force pulled the group inside.

Before my eyes was a medicinal field, filled with all kinds of rare herbs and medicines that were tens of thousands of years old. A faint medicinal fragrance wafted over, making one feel much more relaxed.

Gu Shihan reached out to pick it, but the fairy field instantly split in two and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
