Chapter 313 Am I going to fall to my death in this secret realm?
"Senior Brother Xiao, are you alright? Don't scare us!"
One of the younger disciples looked at Xiao Qiushui with a panicked and worried expression.
An hour or two has passed, and they have evaded several groups of disciples from other sects. Now that they have finally found Senior Brother Xiao, they are really worried that something has happened to him.
"I'm fine, of course I'm fine!"
How could anything be wrong with me?
Xiao Qiushui's expression turned serious.
Although he changed his appearance, his facial expressions remained rich, just like his real face.
"Then why were you talking to yourself and slapping yourself just now?"
The disciple asked timidly.
"I slapped myself? Which eye of yours saw me slap myself?"
It was just a mosquito flying by; I swatted it dead!
Xiao Qiushui said in a very serious tone.
"Mosquitoes? There are mosquitoes in these mountains? I haven't seen any?"
The young disciple looked around and asked with a blank expression.
"You brat, why are you talking so much nonsense? If Senior Brother Xiao says there are mosquitoes, then there are mosquitoes!"
The other two older disciples quickly reprimanded them.
Clearly, Xiao Qiushui was embarrassed because they had discovered her slapping herself, so she made up some excuse.
"These two junior brothers are really good at spotting mosquitoes in the mountains. How could you possibly see them so easily?"
Stop talking nonsense and tell me quickly, did you encounter Junior Sister Shen Rugo after entering the secret realm?
Xiao Qiushui asked hurriedly, her face full of anticipation.
Before entering the secret realm, Daoist Xingchen not only summoned fifty disciples and instructed them to find Xiao Qiushui as soon as they entered the secret realm, but also repeatedly told them to protect Shen Rugo with all their might, at all costs.
They even promised that as long as Shen Rugo was protected in the secret realm and not bullied by other sects, each person would be rewarded with one hundred top-grade spirit stones.
If anyone is willing to risk their life to save Shen Rugo in her time of danger, they will be rewarded with a grand prize of 10,000 top-grade spirit stones.
One hundred top-grade spirit stones may not seem like much, but when converted to low-grade spirit stones, they amount to 100,000, which is an astronomical figure for ordinary disciples. Ten thousand top-grade spirit stones are an even greater fortune.
Therefore, every disciple who entered the secret realm kept Xingchen Daoren's instructions firmly in mind. After entering the secret realm, while searching for Xiao Qiushui, they also kept an eye out for Shen Rugo's whereabouts.
As for why the sect leader was willing to go to such lengths to protect Shen Rugo, they didn't know the reason, but with such a generous reward, everyone was eager to try their best.
"We didn't run into our junior sister!"
Shen Rugo was the youngest among all the disciples who entered the secret realm. Xiao Qiushui called her Junior Sister, and the others followed suit.
"What about the others?"
"I didn't encounter it either!"
It seems like there are only three of us on this half of the mountain!
"Have you searched the entire half of this mountain?"
"We've looked at them all!"
"Then let's look in that direction!"
"Whoever is the first of the three to find Junior Sister will have performed a great service, and these five hundred top-grade spirit stones are theirs!"
Xiao Qiushui took out a bag from her bosom, which was filled with colorful, top-grade spirit stones.
These spirit stones were what he asked Shen Rugo for before entering the secret realm.
Shen Rugo had earned a lot of spirit stones this time, so she naturally wouldn't treat him unfairly. He shamelessly asked for help, and Shen Rugo directly gave him 20,000 top-grade spirit stones.
"Senior Brother Xiao, are you telling the truth?"
The three of them immediately had their eyes light up.
As an ordinary disciple, when had I ever seen so many top-grade spirit stones?
"Of course it's true, would I lie to you?"
Xiao Qiushui raised her face, looking arrogant.
"That's great, let's go now!"
The three of them immediately ran forward and rushed in front of Xiao Qiushui.
The four searched for a while, encountering other people along the way, but after half an hour, there was still no news of Shen Rugo.
"Senior Brother Xiao, why don't the three of us split up and search separately? It's too slow to go together like this!"
An older disciple suggested.
"Yes, let's split up and search!"
The other two nodded in agreement.
"Alright, let's set a one-hour limit. After one hour, regardless of whether we've found it or not, we'll all gather here!"
Xiao Qiushui thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Although he was worried that something might happen to the three of them, the four of them together could only search in one direction, and by spreading out, the search area could be expanded fourfold.
Of course, he didn't expect that the two older disciples had been eyeing the five hundred top-grade spirit stones and had long wanted to find them separately.
After all, if they search together, even if they find Shen Rugo, the spirit stones will be split equally among the three of them. If they search separately, once they find her, all five hundred top-grade spirit stones will be theirs.
However, an hour later, the four reunited and all shook their heads.
"Junior Sister, where are you? How are you now?"
Xiao Qiushui became increasingly anxious.
Four or five hours have passed since we entered the secret realm, almost half a day, and it's almost evening.
As for Shen Rugo, when the secret realm opened, her small hand was tightly held by Xiao Qiushui, and she also grabbed Xiao Qiushui's hand in return.
She really didn't want to be separated from Xiao Qiushui.
After all, this fifth senior brother is simple-minded, hot-tempered, and a battle maniac. If he were to encounter Wu Xuemei, he would definitely fall into her trap and even have his bloodline devoured.
Xiao Qiushui possesses the bloodline of the four divine beasts, Qiongqi, which cannot be hidden from Wu Xuemei and will inevitably become her primary target.
Moreover, Wu Xuemei is not as simple as she appears on the surface. Her true combat strength definitely surpasses the peak of Foundation Establishment, which means that Wu Xuemei's strength is no less than Xiao Qiushui's.
If we were to name the disciple that Shen Rugo was most worried about, it would undoubtedly be Xiao Qiushui; no one else could even catch Wu Xuemei's eye.
Unexpectedly, although the two held hands tightly, a powerful suction force suddenly struck them the moment they entered the black hole.
Shen Rugo suddenly felt dizzy and her body plummeted rapidly as she spun around. She didn't know when, but she let go of Xiao Qiushui's hand.
When she regained consciousness, she hurriedly shouted loudly, but the wind howled and the falling speed increased, and she could not see Xiao Qiushui's figure at all.
"How could this be?"
As she fell, Shen Rugo calmed down and looked around, only to be even more shocked by what she saw.
Fifty people from the Star Palace jumped down almost simultaneously, along with people from other sects. There were at least a hundred people at the time, but now, as far as the eye could see, not a single person could be seen.
She felt as if she were in a lonely world, where she was all alone.
She continued to fall, faster and faster, and Shen Rugo began to panic.
Under the force of gravity, who knows how deep the hole is? If she falls like that, her small body will probably create a huge crater in the ground, and she will be smashed into a pulp.
In his haste, without thinking, he immediately summoned a talisman, a flying talisman.
She wanted to use a flying talisman to control her body.
The Flying Talisman is a high-level rune, and she doesn't refine many of them because refining it consumes too much effort and spirit stones.
But she had tested it before, and the flight talisman allowed her to fly hundreds of meters in the air and control her body freely.
To her surprise, the flight talisman had no effect after she stuck it on her body; her body continued to fall rapidly, let alone fly freely.
"How could this be?"
"Am I going to fall to my death here as soon as I enter the secret realm?"
Shen Rugo was terrified.
