I Reloaded the Save File! [Transmigration] - Chapter 64

Dealing with Xuan Min was neither too difficult nor too simple.

In Mo Xiao’s view, as long as Xuan Min left the Dao Seeking Sect, and she chose an opportune moment, she was confident in joining forces with Zuo Wuyi to take care of Xuan Min.

Of course, the most urgent matter now was to find a way to leave this Secret Realm and solidify their respective cultivation and strength.

“I think the key to leaving the Secret Realm lies in this black palace,” With Mo Xiao’s help, Zuo Wuyi’s body was recovering quickly.

“And, if I’m not mistaken, the inheritance of this Secret Realm originally belonged to this person,” Zuo Wuyi said, unceremoniously kicking the nearby corpse. “His precious son is the one who will cause trouble for Eldest Senior Sister in the future. Once we get out, we’ll take care of his son too.”

Mo Xiao nodded. “Should we just leave this corpse here?”

“I’m sure he’s dead beyond dead,” Zuo Wuyi said. “It’s snowing heavily here; he will be buried soon. There’s no need to waste time and spiritual energy on him.”

“Alright, let’s go then,” Mo Xiao said, taking the lead and pushing open the heavy door.

She quickly scanned the surroundings. After confirming there was no danger, Mo Xiao took two steps forward, yielding the passage. “No danger for now. Come in.”

Zuo Wuyi scoffed lightly in dissatisfaction, immediately stepped forward, and clasped Mo Xiao’s hand. “I am a Nascent Soul-stage demonic cultivator now. I’m not much weaker than you.”

Mo Xiao nodded, cooperatively replying, “Okay, I remember.”

Zuo Wuyi raised an eyebrow. “Why does your tone sound so perfunctory to me?”

“Probably because my answer was indeed casual,” Mo Xiao said. “Your cultivation is indeed at the Nascent Soul stage, but in this environment, your recovery speed lags far behind mine.”

If Mo Xiao runs out of spiritual energy, she can directly draw from the surrounding rich spiritual energy. Zuo Wuyi is different. She must first draw out a portion of her demonic energy to devour the spiritual energy and then slowly assimilate the spiritual energy.

“Fine,” Mo Xiao spoke the truth, and Zuo Wuyi had no way to refute it.

The black palace was massive but extremely empty inside. Its structure was similar to the first palace. After searching inside, Mo Xiao and Zuo Wuyi found nothing.

“Is it turning the pillar again this time?” Zuo Wuyi said, starting to examine the patterns on the pillar with her hands.

Mo Xiao didn’t move but looked up. “Wuyi, look up. Does the pattern in the center look familiar?”

“Up there?” Zuo Wuyi looked up. “Isn’t that the pattern from the previous pillars?”

No sooner had Zuo Wuyi finished speaking than the pattern on the ceiling began to spin by itself.

“Be careful!” Mo Xiao quickly pulled Zuo Wuyi toward her. The originally smooth ground instantly turned into a bottomless black hole.

Zuo Wuyi wrapped her arm around Mo Xiao’s waist, looking over curiously. “Should we go in there?”

Mo Xiao tentatively threw a low-grade spirit stone inside, but the passage had no reaction. “It seems so. Barring any accidents, this should be the key to leaving the Secret Realm.”

At this point, there was no need to discuss who should go in first or last. The two exchanged a look, each activating their protective barrier, and plunged into the hole.

This passage was much deeper than the previous one. The completely dark environment kept both of them on high alert. After an unknown amount of time, a sliver of light appeared ahead.

“Hold on tight,” Mo Xiao said, simultaneously slowing down and layering multiple spiritual energy shields onto both of them, to prevent falling into any dangerous area.

The actual situation was much better than Mo Xiao had anticipated. Apart from the momentary glare of light, the two landed smoothly on a patch of grass.

“Could this be some kind of trap?” Zuo Wuyi looked around very vigilantly. Having been tricked a few times, she had become much more cautious.

Mo Xiao released her spiritual sense to investigate. “It shouldn’t be. The tree demon didn’t completely lie to me. This should be the place where the inheritance can be obtained.”

Although the environment was pleasant, Mo Xiao walked around casually and found a transparent barrier surrounding them, trapping them within a circle with a radius of fifty meters.

“I tried. With my current cultivation, I can’t break this barrier,” Mo Xiao withdrew her sword.

“Then let’s ignore it for now. There’s no danger nearby, and the spiritual energy is sufficient. Let’s cultivate first,” Zuo Wuyi said.

She felt no suppression in this place, and the spiritual energy here was exceptionally compliant, making transformation very convenient, as if this place was specifically designed for them to cultivate.

Seeing Zuo Wuyi sit down cross-legged, Mo Xiao also sat down nearby, frantically absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy.

One could not relax for a moment in the Secret Realm, so Mo Xiao remained vigilant even while cultivating, covering the surroundings with her spiritual sense.

After cultivating for three days, Mo Xiao had a small breakthrough. At the same time, she also noticed that the barrier, originally with a fifty-meter radius, had increased to fifty-one meters.

“Mo Xiao, the size of this barrier seems to be related to our cultivation,” Zuo Wuyi, also cultivating, spoke up. “I have a feeling that as long as one of us breaks through to the Spirit Transformation stage, this barrier will disappear.”

“Spirit Transformation stage?” Mo Xiao felt the spiritual energy in her meridians. “Given the current spiritual energy concentration and my cultivation speed, it will take at least ten years.”

Zuo Wuyi nodded. “Although the demonic cultivation method is overbearing, restricted by the environment, even if I cheated, it would still take about ten years to reach the Spirit Transformation stage.”

“That works out perfectly. We will each cultivate for ten years. Then we’ll deal with the Secret Realm and return to the Dao Seeking Sect to kill Xuan Min,” Mo Xiao said, quickly drawing up her ten-year plan.

Just as Mo Xiao was about to re-enter meditation, Zuo Wuyi suddenly got up and sat down right next to her shoulder.

“Mo Xiao, you know, the demonic race actually has a fast track cultivation method,” Zuo Wuyi said, scratching her face self-consciously. “How about we try it?”

“Huh?” Mo Xiao raised an eyebrow and asked in confusion, “Can I cultivate a demonic method too?”

“Ah, this particular method is special. It requires two people to cultivate. If used properly, it can double the cultivation speed for both parties,” Zuo Wuyi carefully chose her words. “Do you understand what I mean?”
