Terrified, Nihuang Yu immediately knelt down, her voice trembling as she said, "Disciple knows her mistake, please forgive me, Master..."

Su He snorted coldly and waved his hand, signaling the three of them to leave.

Fang Yixin and Fang Yuan quickly helped Ni Huangyu up, bowed to Su He and Juechenzi, and took their leave.

Watching the three figures disappear into the distance, Juechenzi turned to Suhe and said, "Suhe, the secret realm is extremely dangerous. Remember to act cautiously and don't be reckless."

Su He nodded and said solemnly, "Don't worry, Senior Brother Sect Leader, I will be careful."

Juechenzi sighed, took out a map from his sleeve, and handed it to Suhe.

"This is a map showing the location of the entrance to the secret realm. The entrance is located in the withered forest outside Qingxuan Valley, where it is shrouded in mist all year round, making it very easy to lose one's way."

Once you reach the Deadwood Forest, follow the map; you should be able to find the entrance.

Su He took the map, examined it carefully for a moment, and then solemnly put it into his pocket.

"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother Sect Leader."

Juechenzi gave a few more instructions before watching Suhe leave.

Suhe flew on his sword and soon arrived outside the withered forest.

He landed on the ground and looked around at the scene before him.

The Deadwood Forest truly lived up to its name; the ancient trees in the forest reached for the sky, their branches gnarled and twisted, exuding a sinister atmosphere.

Even more strangely, the forest was shrouded in mist, a vast expanse of white, as if shrouded in a thick white veil.

He took out the map given to him by Juechenzi from his bosom and examined it carefully.

The entrance marked on the map appears to be located in a clearing in the middle of the forest.

Suhe looked up but found that the fog was too thick to see anything in the distance.

Left with no other choice, he had to put away the map and walk step by step into the forest.

After taking only a few steps, Su He felt a chilling aura rushing towards him.

He shivered, a sense of foreboding rising in his heart.

But he was now a Martial Emperor, so he quickly calmed down.

However, the deeper they went into the forest, the thicker the fog became.

In the end, Suhe couldn't even see his own hands anymore.

He could only rely on his senses to grope his way forward through the forest.

Suddenly, the ground slipped from Su He's feet, and he nearly fell.

He quickly steadied himself and looked down, only to find a bottomless ravine.

If he hadn't reacted quickly, he probably would have already fallen.

Suhe secretly rejoiced, carefully skirting the ravine, and continued on his way.

However, an even greater test lies ahead.

Su He realized that he seemed to be going in circles in the forest.

No matter where he went, he always felt that the scenery around him was familiar.

He began to wonder if he was lost.

But I clearly followed the map...

Su He was completely baffled, so he simply stopped, sat down cross-legged, and began to circulate his inner energy, sensing the surrounding environment.

After a long while, he opened his eyes, his brows furrowed.

Something's strange...

Su He muttered to himself, his gaze sweeping through the woods.

He discovered that there seemed to be a strange force in this dead forest, interfering with his senses.

No matter how he sensed it, he couldn't accurately pinpoint his location.

Su He's heart sank, a vague sense of foreboding creeping in.

Could it be that this withered forest itself is a test of the secret realm?

He stood up, took a deep breath, and forced himself to calm down.

Since it's a test, let's face it head-on.

He continued exploring the forest, constantly changing his position, searching for any trace of the entrance.

However, no matter how hard he tried, he seemed to be getting further and further away from his goal.

The fog grew thicker and thicker, the trees grew denser, and even the sky could not be seen.

"A mere withered forest, how could it possibly defeat my Suhe River?"

Su He was searching for the entrance to the secret realm in the forest when he suddenly heard a series of girls' voices.

He stopped and turned around, only to see a familiar figure running towards him.

Su He looked closely and realized it was Qingxin, whom he had saved before.

He was taken aback. How could Qingxin be here?

Qingxin caught up with Suhe, panting, and quickly explained, "Senior, I have already consulted Elder Juechenzi, and he has agreed to let me go to the secret realm with you."

Su He frowned and asked in confusion, "Why are you coming with me to the secret realm?"

That place is extremely dangerous; it's not a place for a young girl like you.

Qingxin said anxiously, "Senior, I heard that there is a kind of spiritual medicine in the secret realm that can cure my father."

I must go and get it; please take me with you!

Su He shook his head helplessly.

This girl is really stubborn.

But seeing Qingxin's pleading eyes, he couldn't bear to refuse her.

"Alright, come with me. But you must follow my instructions and not hold me back, or I won't take care of you."

Qingxin nodded repeatedly, overjoyed.

Carrying such a burden is really troublesome.

He turned and continued searching for the entrance in the forest, with Qingxin following closely behind him.

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew by, and Qingxin shivered, swaying and almost falling.

Seeing this, Su He quickly reached out to support her.

This girl's cultivation level is too low; she can't even withstand this bit of yin wind.

If this continues, it might become a burden for him.

After pondering for a moment, Su He decided to add a layer of protective spiritual power to Qingxin.

He clasped his hands together, and a ball of golden light condensed in his palms.

Qingxin stared in disbelief, wondering what Suhe was about to do.

Su He gently placed his palm on Qingxin's shoulder, and golden light instantly merged into her body.

Qingxin immediately felt a warm current spread throughout her body, and the original chill completely dissipated.

She looked at Su He with surprise and thanked him repeatedly.

Su He waved his hand and said indifferently, "This is nothing to worry about. Remember, no matter what happens later, don't leave my side."

Qingxin nodded vigorously, suddenly realizing what was happening.

It turns out that her senior had already helped her so much behind the scenes...

She secretly vowed to follow her senior's lead and never cause him any trouble.

Seeing Qingxin's serious expression, Suhe felt a little gratified.

He turned and continued walking, with Qingxin following closely behind.

The two walked through the forest, gradually venturing deeper into the mist.

The surroundings grew increasingly eerie, as if countless eyes were watching from the shadows.

Qingxin felt a sudden fear and instinctively moved closer to Suhe.

Su He sensed the movement behind him and turned to look at Qingxin.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here, I won't let anything happen to you."

Hearing this, Qingxin felt a warmth in her heart and quickly nodded.

With her senior's promise, she didn't seem so afraid anymore.

Suhe focused on finding the entrance, his gaze sweeping through the woods.

However, the deeper they went, the thicker the fog became, blurring their vision.

"Senior, why is the fog getting thicker? Could there be a problem?"

Su He pondered for a moment, then shook his head.

"It should be fine. This fog is probably a defensive mechanism of the secret realm, designed to confuse outsiders. We just need to keep moving forward; we'll eventually find the entrance."

Upon hearing this, Qingxin felt somewhat relieved and quickened her pace to catch up.

Suhe and Qingxin searched the withered forest for a long time, but still could not find the entrance to the secret realm.
