Chapter 79 Departure! Re-entering the Secret Realm

"Xi Hong, now that you have a plan in mind, let's not delay any longer. When shall we set off?" Yun Songzi asked.
"The sooner the better!" Meng Xihong said, "However, before we set off, I have one more request."

"explain."

"Please, senior, set up an isolation array to completely seal off Yan An's room. To the outside world, declare that my son is frail and needs to rest quietly, and will not receive any guests." Meng Xihong's expression turned serious.
"Until Yan An recovers, his condition must not be known to a fourth person."

He was referring to a fourth person besides himself, Bai Muyun, and Yun Songzi.

The child's unusual behavior, coupled with the body-strengthening exercises to be promoted, makes it all the more likely to lead to speculation.

He must eliminate all potential risks.

“Of course.” Yun Songzi nodded solemnly. “This matter is of great importance, as I am aware of. I will make the arrangements now. You prepare yourself, and we will depart in an hour.”

"it is good!"

Meng Xihong turned and left, his steps steady and powerful.

Watching his retreating figure, Yun Songzi stroked his beard, a complex smile appearing in his eyes.

"This kid is really a troublemaker. But... I think I'm getting excited too."

He shook his head, gave a self-deprecating smile, and then made a hand seal. Strands of righteous energy flowed from his fingertips, beginning to form an invisible barrier outside Meng Yan'an's room.

……

An hour later, in the backyard of the Meng family.

Meng Xihong was dressed in a smart outfit and looked very energetic.

Yun Songzi also put on a moon-white long robe, looking quite like an immortal.

"Father, Master, where are you going?"

Meng Yanqing and Meng Yanwei, holding Meng Yanning's hands, ran over from the side.

"Are you going to that secret realm in the mountains again?" Meng Yanqing looked up, her eyes full of longing. "Dad, my second brother went last time, take me with you this time too. I'm stronger than before."

As he spoke, he waved his little fist, looking quite fierce.

“Father, Master,” Meng Yanwei said calmly. “This matter concerns the safety of my third brother and is no child’s play. I still have memories of the secret realm and am protected by the Emperor’s Banner. I may be able to share your burden and act as your guide on this trip.”

Looking at his two sons, each more cunning than the last, Meng Xihong felt both annoyed and amused.

"You two little rascals." Yun Songzi walked over with a smile and gave each of them a flick on the forehead. "Last time it was to scout ahead, this time it's to get down to business. Your father is going into seclusion to comprehend the Great Law, so he doesn't have time to take you two burdens with him."

“But…” Meng Yanqing still wanted to try.

"No buts." Meng Xihong's expression turned serious. "Yanqing, you are the eldest brother. With Father away, you must shoulder the responsibilities of a man. Protect Mother, protect your sister, protect your brother. Can you do that?"

Seeing her father's serious expression, Meng Yanqing knew there was no room for negotiation.

He nodded vigorously and answered loudly, "Yes!"

"Yanwei, you too." Meng Xihong then looked at his second son, "Use what you've learned to comfort your mother. Don't let her worry too much, understand?"

Meng Yanwei nodded solemnly: "Father, don't worry, I will."

"Good boy." Meng Xihong smiled with satisfaction and kissed each of his two sons on the forehead. Bai Muyun and Meng Yanning, who were standing nearby, also came over.

Bai Muyun's eyes were still red, but her mental state was much better than last night.

She had already learned the purpose of their trip from Meng Xihong, and although she was worried, she was more supportive and hopeful.

"Husband, Senior Yun Songzi, please be careful." She handed a package to Meng Xihong. "Inside are some dry food and water, and a few changes of clothes."

"Don't worry, my wife." Meng Xihong took the package, put it out of the storage bag, and then hugged his wife tightly. "We'll be back soon."

"Daddy, come back soon!" Seven-year-old Meng Yanning ran over, hugged Meng Xihong's leg, and said reluctantly.

"it is good."

After bidding farewell to their families, Meng Xihong and Yun Songzi did not linger and sped off towards the former site of the Yin Sha Sect.

In order to avoid attracting attention, the two used their agility to move quickly through the mountains and forests.

Yun Songzi was in front, his feet barely touching the ground, his clothes fluttering as if he were strolling leisurely.

Meng Xihong, panting heavily, pushed the "Dragon Steps" technique he had only learned a few days ago to its limit, but could only barely keep up.

"Senior, please slow down... wait for me..."

"Hey kid, with your Qi Refining Level 8 cultivation, how come your stamina is even worse than this old man's bones?" Yun Songzi turned around and said with a mischievous smile.

As Meng Xihong ran, he rolled his eyes. "Are you an old man? You're a Golden Core cultivator!"

However, he dared not say it aloud, but instead took the opportunity to ask, "Senior Yun, what do you think is the core of a cultivation technique? Is it the route of meridian circulation, or the method of transporting qi and blood?"

Why are some martial arts techniques balanced and peaceful, while others are extremely domineering? What are the differences between them?

"If a martial arts technique is incomplete, what is the most crucial element in completing it?"

Seeing that he was tired but his mind was clear, Yun Songzi's eyes showed more approval and she patiently explained.

"The way of cultivation, though ever-changing, never deviates from its fundamental principle. Its core lies in 'reason'. Reason is the ultimate principle of heaven and earth, and the principle of the human body. The circulation routes and methods of movement are merely 'techniques'. Only when technique and reason are combined can it be called 'method'..."

"The difference in temperament between cultivation methods lies in the different attributes of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth they draw upon, and the different directions they develop the human body's potential. Those who are balanced and moderate seek to wear down stone with persistent effort, accumulating strength gradually before unleashing it. Those who are domineering seek an instantaneous burst of power, which often damages their foundation..."

"As for completing the cultivation method, this is a major taboo. The 'principle' of the creator is extremely difficult for later generations to fathom. Forcibly completing it will most likely lead to going astray. At best, the cultivation method will be ruined; at worst, the body will explode and the person will die. Unless... you can fully comprehend its core 'Daoist essence'."

Meng Xihong kept Yun Songzi's words in mind, repeatedly pondering and analyzing them with the concept of "literary spirit and integrity." He felt enlightened and had a greater sense of confidence in what he was about to do.

Two days later, the two finally arrived at the gate of the Yin Sha Sect.

Returning to this familiar place, everything had changed.

The Yin Sha Sect's mountain gate was already dilapidated, but the "separate courtyard" built by the Meng family here was already taking shape. Dozens of carefully selected local militiamen were stationed here, training day and night, and keeping the place in good order.

Without alerting anyone, Yun Songzi and Meng Xihong arrived at the secluded cave in the back mountain and opened the secret realm portal with the Xuan Tie key.

Upon entering the secret realm, a familiar yet rich ancient spiritual energy immediately greets you.
