Is it too late to start learning Chapter 106 now?
Zhong Hanshang felt a strange, indescribable feeling suddenly well up in his heart.
This was because it was the first time in his life that a girl had ever pulled him along like this.
From the time he could remember, his master kept him by his side, rarely allowing him to have much contact with the outside world, and his heart and mind were only focused on urging him to cultivate.
In those countless days and nights, while other children were still laughing and playing.
He was already immersed in the cultivation techniques and secret manuals, struggling and learning in the mysterious world of spiritual power.
It was precisely because of this extraordinary focus and hard work that he made great strides at the young age of sixteen and successfully broke through to the Nascent Soul stage.
He became a cultivation prodigy, admired and hailed by others for his extraordinary talent.
If it weren't for this time he mustered up his courage, volunteered to his master, and insisted on going out to explore and gain experience.
He is probably still trapped in the small world of the sect, day after day facing the secret manuals and ancient scrolls, repeating the boring and tedious daily routine of cultivation.
Although his cultivation level has become increasingly profound, he is like a bird trapped in a cage, completely unaware of the wonders of the vast world outside.
His master's teachings still echoed in his ears, those words like golden rules, deeply imprinted in his heart since childhood—all things in the world are like dreams and illusions.
It is nothing but fleeting illusion; only the profound and mysterious Great Dao is the ultimate goal that cultivators pursue and explore.
It wasn't until he was deeply mired in this predicament that Zhong Hanshang suddenly realized that although he possessed considerable cultivation, his practical combat experience was pitifully lacking.
He possesses immense spiritual power, yet he doesn't know how to skillfully navigate the unpredictable storms of the martial world or the complexities of human nature.
Otherwise, how could they have been so easily trapped in this dark river and in such a sorry state?
In the end, he had to rely on a female Golden Core cultivator he had only recently met to rescue him.
"Fellow Daoist, why don't we go up?"
Upon receiving Zhong Hanshang's telepathic message again, Gao Huohuo replied somewhat impatiently.
"The matter isn't finished, so I can't go up."
If it weren't for the time wasted rescuing him, she might have already gone up there. The trembling of the spiritual sword above her head was almost unbearable for her.
It felt like someone was holding a hammer and hitting her head repeatedly.
She tried to remove the hairpin that the spirit sword had transformed into, but found that she couldn't remove it at all.
Fortunately, we finally reached the bottom of the river, where a stone door appeared before us.
Gao Huohuo's bright eyes quickly scanned the surroundings, carefully examining the environment.
After confirming that there was no trace of anyone else and that there were no signs of anyone having been on the ground, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank goodness, it seems no one is coming with us for now."
Gao Huohuo secretly rejoiced, and the tension in her heart eased a little.
"Otherwise, what if the treasure hidden behind this stone door happens to be the very one that Su Ruoyun has been searching for?"
It would be so awkward if we ran into each other then; I wouldn't even be able to explain myself.
Thinking of this, Gao Huohuo raised her hand to let go of Zhong Hanshang's sleeve, and made a move to quickly step forward and push open the mysterious stone door.
However, she suddenly felt a force on her wrist. She turned her head and saw that Zhong Hanshang had reached out and grabbed her tightly.
At the same time, he gestured for her to stand back, clearly indicating that he intended to be the first to step forward and push open the door.
"Yo ho!"
A surge of competitive spirit welled up within Gao Huohuo, and he thought to himself.
"They've spotted a hidden gem and are afraid I'll snatch it away first."
So you're rushing to pull me to the back? No way!
He suddenly swung his arm, breaking free from Zhong Hanshang's grasp, and rushed forward with lightning speed.
With both hands exerting all their strength, the stone door creaked open.
"Hmph, you want to snatch my treasure? You don't even know your own strength. When have I ever been afraid of losing?"
"I'm determined to fight this first battle today!"
As Gao Huohuo charged forward, he muttered to himself, and plunged headlong into the stone gate with great momentum.
Zhong Hanshang was worried that there might be dangers behind the stone door, which is why he wanted to push the door open first.
After all, he was already at the Nascent Soul stage, with abundant spiritual power. Even if he encountered danger, he would still have some ability to protect himself.
Unexpectedly, this female cultivator was quite concerned about him, fearing that he might be injured, and she disregarded her own safety and rushed in first.
Once the two entered, the hairpin on Gao Huohuo's head transformed back into the shape of a spirit sword and began absorbing the colorful light orbs inside.
Even Zi Ying stepped down from her hand and began to absorb the five-colored light.
What kind of good stuff is this? Why are they all starting to absorb it?
I wonder if humans can absorb it? Otherwise, she would like to go up and take a sip to see what it tastes like.
"Master, this five-colored light is a good thing, even I need it."
"Little Lingzi? Then hurry up and come out to absorb it too!"
Gao Huohuo was about to take out the Lingyun Stone after speaking when Xiao Lingzi hurriedly stopped him:
"Master, let them absorb first. That way they can protect you too. I'm not in a hurry."
However, you should quickly set up an array or barrier to conceal their aura, otherwise, once they finish absorbing it, it will likely attract a large number of cultivators.
Gao Huohuo's consciousness instantly probed into the storage ring, turning the contents upside down like a whirlwind.
However, in the end, they were still disappointed because there was no array plate that could conceal their aura.
She then turned her attention to the matter of the barrier, but as soon as the thought arose, her spirits waned, and her face was filled with dejection.
"Forget it, with my current cultivation level, I don't think I can successfully create a barrier that will be of any use."
That's pure fantasy, it's simply impossible.
For a moment, Gao Huohuo was like an ant on a hot pan, anxiously pacing around in circles.
Her gaze inadvertently fell upon Zhong Hanshang, who stood silently beside her, and her eyes lit up.
But his expression immediately dimmed again, filled with difficulty and hesitation.
As if sensing Gao Huohuo's urgent gaze, which felt like a thorn in his back, Zhong Hanshang turned slightly to meet her gaze.
Seeing her hesitant expression, he took the initiative to ask:
"Judging from your expression, have you encountered a difficult problem? Is there anything I can help you with?"
"Don't hesitate, just speak your mind."
Upon hearing this, Gao Huohuo cleared her throat and blurted out her request.
"To be honest, I do have a favor to ask right now."
Look, this place is fraught with danger, and we don't know anything about our surroundings. If outsiders discover our presence, it could lead to big trouble.
So I was thinking, could you help me set up a barrier that can not only prevent our aura from leaking out even a little bit?
Ideally, we should be able to hide here so that even if those with ulterior motives try to investigate, they won't be able to detect that we're hiding here. What do you think?
After saying that, she looked at Zhong Hanshang with expectant eyes.
He should agree, right? After all, he just saved his life.
"I haven't learned how to set up a barrier yet, but I brought some related books with me. Wait for me a moment."
Oh? Starting to learn now? Is it too late? Should she join in too?
