Oh no, I accidentally cultivated three spiritual roots and became an empress!

Chapter 368 Goodbye, I, Old Green Ox, will be back.

She knew she had entered the Wumeng Secret Realm.

She was finally truly free.

Even if it's only a hundred years of freedom, it's still freedom.

Upon gaining her freedom, Zhong Lingxin immediately went to see her friends.

She missed her friends terribly after not seeing them for over ten years.

As soon as she focused her mind on the Nine-Story Pagoda, Zhong Chun urged her to quickly find a safe place, as her friends were about to advance in rank.

It turns out that Zhong Lingxin was targeted by Emperor Yiren as soon as she boarded the ship, which greatly excited her friends.

One by one, they all hated their low cultivation level and inability to help, and they all entered the time array to cultivate in resentment.

A time array with a flow rate of one hundred years.

What is thirteen years outside is equivalent to thirteen hundred years inside the formation.

Those who were determined to train hard have unknowingly reached the sixth level.

Unfortunately, they couldn't undergo tribulation inside the Nine-Story Pagoda, so they had no choice but to wait patiently.

Zhong Lingxin knew the matter was serious. Luckily, she found an opportunity to enter the secret realm, otherwise her friends would have really suffocated.

Around her, figures were falling one after another like dumplings being dropped into a pot.

She knew they were immortals who had entered the Wumeng Secret Realm.

Without a second thought, Zhong Lingxin took the invisibility talisman handed to her by Zhong Chun, and instantly soared into the clouds, speeding away into the distance.

After traveling at high speed for half a month, she arrived at a valley.

The valley entrance was wide open, with gentle mountains behind it. Two fourth-tier immortal camels were watching Zhong Lingxin warily as she landed on the ground.

This is a good place for promotion.

Zhong Lingxin first released Zhong Chun, allowing him to be promoted.

Inside the Nine-Story Pagoda, Zhong Chun had already prepared the necessary pills, array plates, and magic robes for all his companions to advance.

Therefore, the promotions of my colleagues went extremely smoothly.

This time, no one argued about who went first or last. As soon as they advanced, they were all busy consolidating their cultivation.

Before Zhong Lingxin could say anything more, they consciously split into three teams and walked away.

Huanhuan and Yueyue each took a few friends, while Lele led the Ice Flame group alone.

Zhong Qiu, accompanied by Zhong Yongfu, stayed by Zhong Lingxin's side, who had transformed into a male cultivator.

In this Wumeng Secret Realm, Zhong Qiu, at the seventh level, already possessed a high level of cultivation, enough to protect Zhong Lingxin's safety.

Zhong Chun returned to the Nine-Story Pagoda, stabilized his cultivation, and continued to prepare pills, talismans, artifacts, and arrays for his companions.

However, he also told Zhong Lingxin that he had only mastered the Danfu Array to the seventh grade, and Zhong Lingxin would have to prepare the higher grades for her friends herself.

Of course, if you can advance to the seventh rank in this Wumeng Secret Realm, he can still be of help.

Zhong Lingxin nodded, indicating that she understood.

She was very busy, busy challenging the mythical beasts in the secret realm, so she headed straight for the inner perimeter of the secret realm.

After entering the Wumeng Secret Realm, she unleashed her absorption of immortal essence and fought a fifth-tier immortal beast, gaining many insights. Her cultivation had reached the late-stage Great Perfection of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and she was only one opportunity away from advancing to the Nine Heavens Mystic Immortal realm.

On the edge of the inner perimeter, there was a sixth-tier old green ox, which was her ideal training beast.

The old green ox dislikes fighting, so it really hates the immortal who comes in once every thousand years.

Now that it's time for the immortals to come in again, the old green ox has decided to leave its territory and find a quiet place to hide away in peace.

So it filled in the fairy spring in its territory, and put all the fairy fruits, trees, herbs and minerals, big and small, into its inner space. It then transformed into a small blue rhinoceros bird, flapping its little wings and flying slowly towards the outer perimeter.

When the immortals enter the inner circle, it goes to the outer circle, perfectly avoiding the annoying immortals.

that's nice!

The old ox couldn't help but praise its own cleverness.

As it flew over the junction of the inner and outer perimeter, the old green ox glanced back at its home and silently said in its heart: Goodbye, I, the old green ox, will come back.

Just as it turned back to continue flying, it nearly crashed into a cloud.

The old green ox cried out in alarm; it had bumped into an immortal who had just entered.

Zhong Lingxin cheerfully blocked the blue hornbill from flying away, and pointed out its identity without hesitation: "Old blue ox, where are you going?"

The old green ox couldn't keep up the act any longer and had no choice but to revert to its original form, standing atop a cloud. Looking at Zhong Lingxin opposite him, it said in a deep voice, "Little immortal, excuse me!"

Zhong Lingxin chuckled and brandished the Soul-Slaying Sword in her hand, saying, "Excuse me, no problem. As long as you can defeat the sword in my hand, I'll let you pass."

The old green ox was furious. After all, it was a sixth-order immortal beast that had cultivated for ten thousand years. Being blocked by a Grand Luo Golden Immortal and forced to fight was a loss of face for it, as it had always wanted to avoid the battle.

Old Green Ox, his face grim, coldly shouted, "Make way!"

Zhong Lingxin didn't recognize the old green ox at first, but Zhong Qiu was beside her. As a fellow celestial beast, Zhong Qiu sensed the aura of a sixth-tier celestial beast as soon as the old green ox flew over the mountain.

He looked closely and saw a rather incongruous blue hornbill about to brush past them.

Zhong Lingxin immediately knew it was Old Green Ox.

Because the old green ox is notoriously averse to fighting, it will let any immortal who enters the secret realm pass by paying a toll as long as they don't intentionally harm it.

Sometimes, the immortals are too troublesome. The annoyed old ox is so lazy that it doesn't even bother to ask for a toll and simply kicks the immortal far away with one hoof.

This also allowed the immortals who entered the secret realm to gradually understand the old green ox's temperament, always getting into trouble with it and saving them a lot of tolls.

In fact, some immortals also wanted to kill the old green ox or make a pact with it.

Although the old green ox was a sixth-order immortal beast, its defense was extremely high. The immortals' swords, fire, and even poison could not bring down the old green ox, and it even angered the ox into committing several killings.

This time, Old Green Ox plans to ask for nothing, just some peace and quiet.

Unfortunately, tranquility was hard to find, and as soon as it stepped out, it ran into Zhong Lingxin, who was eager to practice its skills on it.

Without further ado, Zhong Lingxin brandished the Soul-Slaying Sword and unleashed a move called "Heart-Shaking and Divine Shaking," aiming the sword directly at the old green ox's brow.

The old green ox shook its head, its horns grew out of control, forcing back Zhong Lingxin's Soul-Slaying Sword. With a stomp of its hoof, mountains on the ground suddenly grew wildly, and countless sharp blades shot up from the mountains, trying to impale Zhong Lingxin on their tips.

With a flick of her left hand, Zhong Lingxin sent out countless green vines that burrowed into the ground, causing the sharp blades to fall in droves.

The old green ox let out a "moo," and its horns grew out again, piercing straight into Zhong Lingxin's dantian.

Zhong Lingxin shouted sharply, "Hey!"

The Soul-Slaying Sword flew out of his hand and attacked the old green ox's eyes on its own.

Zhong Lingxin herself swung her fists and smashed them down on the old green ox's horns.

The old ox sneered, "When it comes to strength, it has nothing but inexhaustible strength."

Ignoring Zhong Lingxin's fist, the old ox transformed its long horns into two sharp javelins, thrusting them forward with all its might.

Zhong Lingxin swung her fist and punched the old ox's horns dozens of times in one go.
