“So now, should we still go looking for her?” Xiaoqing, however, couldn’t be bothered to think so much and asked very directly.
“Since Li Zhixuan doesn’t want us to go over there, let’s not.” Da Qing pondered for a while and finally made up his mind, saying, “The gateway to the Secret Realm has been opened; let’s just leave.”
This hadn’t been his original plan, but for some reason, just as the words were about to leave his mouth, an intense unease surfaced in his heart, as if a great disaster was about to befall them.
‘If we go looking for Li Zhixuan, will we encounter fatal danger?!’ With this thought, a flicker of worry appeared in the depths of Da Qing’s eyes.

But whether it’s considered selfishness or cowardice, he couldn’t possibly bring Jiang Fengwu, Li Chenghuo, and Xiaoqing into danger.
In fact, considering the incident where Li Zhixuan destroyed the positioning device, she must be aware of the likely outcome.
But since she made her choice without looking back, they could only respect Li Zhixuan’s decision and hope that she would return safely.
“Let’s go!” Da Qing, ignoring the hesitant expressions of Jiang Fengwu and Li Chenghuo, simply commanded and took control of the Spirit Boat, flying straight towards the exit.
Xiaoqing glanced at Da Qing, seemingly deep in thought but did not say anything. Instead, he silently conjured a Spirit Wind, empowering the Spirit Boat, making it fly even faster.
“Why would there be a sandstorm in the Secret Realm?” Li Chenghuo stood at the stern, staring vacantly into the distance when suddenly, an eye-catching streak of yellow appeared amid the ordinary mountains and rivers.
“Xiaoqing, go and check it out.”
Although Xiaoqing had not cultivated Pupil Skill, his Eagle Eyes were a racial talent, allowing him to see farther and clearer than Li Chenghuo.
Xiaoqing walked over silently, gazing intently at the distance. After a moment, he said with a somewhat grave voice, “That’s not a sandstorm, but the dust kicked up by a large number of Devil Beasts running.”
“What?!” Li Chenghuo exclaimed in shock, “This sky-darkening yellow sand… how many Devil Beasts does it take to create this effect?!”
“At least tens of thousands.” Xiaoqing shook his head, advising without further comment to focus on controlling the Spirit Wind and accelerating the Spirit Boat’s speed once more.
“Stop looking! Everyone, help control the Spirit Boat!” Da Qing shouted urgently, “We must reach the exit before the Devil Beasts do, or if they block us, we won’t be able to get out!”
“But what about Lady Xuan…”
Although Li Chenghuo wasn’t that close to Li Zhixuan, she was after all his elder, and he couldn’t just watch her walk to her death without caring.
“Forget about Li Zhixuan! If she dared to stay behind, then she surely has a way to save her own life!”
Da Qing said with a tense expression, “What we need to do now is to leave the Secret Realm as quickly as possible, inform Zhirui about what’s happening inside, and have him prepare defensively!”
He was very worried now; the Devil Race might not only have schemes within the Secret Realm but might have also set traps in the outside world. If that were the case, then Li Zhirui would be in danger!
After a flurry of wind that was swift as lightning, Jiang Fengwu could already see the exit of the Secret Realm from afar.
Before long, the four of them arrived in front of the exit and then completely vanished.
It must be said that the luck of Jiang Fengwu and his companions was good. There had first been Li Zhixuan’s warning, followed by noticing the movements of the running Devil Beasts, and they had decided to leave the Secret Realm early.
But other Cultivators and the Devil Beasts of Great Snow Mountain, some of whom were reluctant to give up and some who viewed others as prey, remained within the Secret Realm.
Those Cultivators who had left early like Jiang Fengwu were very few.
Many had not realized that within the Secret Realm, a terrifying torrent was sweeping in all directions, set to crush all objects blocking its path!
By the time many did notice, they had no escape!
Because the exit was blocked by Devil Beasts!
Several third-order Devil Beasts, hundreds, even thousands of lower-order ones, had completely barricaded the surroundings of the exit. Want to leave the Secret Realm? You could only break through by force.
And now, in the Secret Realm, there wasn’t a single cultivator who could accomplish this on their own.
It was only after the Devil Beasts had cleared the area that Li Zhixuan confirmed it was safe before emerging from the crevice where she was hiding.
Despite the absence of Devil Beasts in her vicinity, Li Zhixuan was extremely careful and cautious as she entered the valley.
“Eh? How did you find this place?” Suddenly, the space rippled like flowing water, and a fox emerged from it.
Li Zhixuan’s heart skipped a beat, she had considered the possibility of Devil Beasts guarding the Spiritual Medicine in the valley, but she never expected that the Spirit Void Fox, which should have been leading the Devil Race army to cleanse the Secret Realm, was actually in the valley at this moment!
“Since you don’t want to answer, let’s forget it, but from now on, you might as well keep your mouth shut too!” No sooner had the words left its mouth than the Spirit Void Fox once again slipped into the fabric of space, disappearing without a trace.
Li Zhixuan, holding her Life-Token Magic Sword, remained vigilantly on guard, but she didn’t stop moving her feet, inconspicuously heading deeper into the valley, facilitating her collection of Spiritual Objects later on.
“Buzz——”
Suddenly, an almost imperceptible buzzing sound arose, and the Spirit Void Fox appeared abruptly to the right of Li Zhixuan, but before it could do anything, it was forced back into hiding by a burst of Sword Qi.
Although the Spirit Void Fox was at the late stage of third order, its combat strength wasn’t very formidable, mainly relying on its innate abilities to catch the opponent off guard.
However, facing Li Zhixuan, who was prickly in every sense, it found itself at a loss for where to start.
The Spirit Void Fox, hidden in the spatial rift, looked extremely displeased; it hadn’t expected this cultivator to have such a high combat proficiency!
At even the slightest movement, Li Zhixuan could quickly react, counterattacking with a sword, forcing it to retreat.
As the fight went back and forth, Li Zhixuan had figured out its combat style and instantly felt a sense of relief. She couldn’t believe that a late third-order Devil Beast had such poor fighting capabilities.
After some thought, she released the three Mountain Guardian Spirit Beasts from her Spirit Beast Bag, and instructed, “Go and collect all the precious Spiritual Objects in the valley, be very careful not to harm their roots to avoid failure during transplanting.”
Watching this scene, the Spirit Void Fox’s eyes were instantly filled with rage—it couldn’t believe it was being humiliated in such a way!
But then it violently realized that it seemed truly incapable of dealing with her!
Unless it was willing to use its life-saving trump card, it was simply no match for Li Zhixuan.
Yet using that trump card would be an overkill, a waste of resources.
Thus, the Spirit Void Fox found itself stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Li Zhixuan, for her part, didn’t care about that much. She remained alert while sealing away the Spiritual Objects unearthed by the Mountain Guardian Spirit Beasts.

“Why have only you come out? Where is Zhixuan?” Li Zhirui scanned the Spirit Boat and frowned as he spoke.
While questioning, he also took out and checked his Life Token.
Da Qing didn’t speak but shook its head, indicating this wasn’t the place to talk.
