Chapter 91 - Sister Is Out Of Seclusion!

Ten days later---

The sun peeked out behind the mountains, and the morning light had just broken through the night sky.

As the first bell rang in the Black Star Sect, a loud noise was suddenly heard coming from the direction of the sealed caves.

Near the cave entrance, the three disciples who were supposed to be on duty were awakened by the loud noise.

"What's going on?!"

"What happened?"

"Hey?"

The three shook their heads and hurriedly ran to the three stone walls on the side to check the hundreds of bamboo signs hanging there.

"Section C is fine!!"

"Section B, no problem!"

The third man said with a shaky voice, "Section A... blew up."

The two people who were checking Sections B and C turned pale when they heard this and looked at him in disbelief. "Blew... blew up?! How could it blow up? Could an elder disciple be forming the golden core here?"

"How could that be?!" Another disciple rolled his eyes. "The Core Formation takes place in the Moon Spring Peak caves. The Spirit Gathering Array here can only be used for Qi Refining practice or Foundation Building."

"Then, how did it blow up..."

With a puzzled look, the man rushed to touch the bamboo sign that had fallen from the wall.

However, the moment he touched the fragments of the bamboo sign, he suddenly felt a cold energy spread from his fingertips into his body, causing him to jump three or four feet in pain.

At the same time, a flying sword descended from the sky.

Qin Ruyi looked at the three panicked disciples, and her brows furrowed as she asked, "What happened?"

The disciples looked at each other and said, "Ah... Section A's sign... froze and shattered."

"Froze and shattered?"

Qin Ruyi quickly stepped forward to check the bamboo sign that was broken into countless pieces on the ground. After reaching out and touching it, her eyes widened, and she rushed into the cave without saying another word.

She remembered that this was Pei Lianxue's Spirit Gathering Array for building her foundation.

Although she didn't know what was happening inside yet, it definitely wasn't a good thing if it could make the Spirit Gathering Array turn out like this.

Pei Lianxue was the one she was most pleased with among the disciples of this generation or even several generations back. If there were any accidents that prevented her from continuing her path to immortality, not only would Pei Lianxue cry to death, but she herself would also be depressed for many days.

"You guys, gather your energy to protect your body!"

Qin Ruyi instructed the three disciples who followed her, caressed the surface of her spirit sword with the index and middle fingers of her left hand, and took a deep breath.

"Ha!!"

Boom---

There was a single swing of the sword, but on the stone door in front of them, several sword shadows appeared. In an instant, the door turned into pieces of stone that fell to the ground.

But when the stone door shattered, a large amount of ice-cold energy poured out of the cave.

The spiritual power contained in this ice-cold air was extremely pure. Not to mention Foundation Building stage cultivators, even Core Formation cultivators who did not have water spiritual roots, would more or less cause the spiritual energy to go the wrong way after assimilating it into their bodies.

Qin Ruyi quickly spread her spiritual energy to the three disciples to help them resist the burst of cold air. She then took out a high-quality fire crystal stone from the storage bag and used it to absorb all the cold energy in the cave.

She anxiously wanted to see what was going on in the cave, but the white mist inside was so thick that even though the fire crystal stone was already doing its best to dissipate the cold energy, she could not see anything further than a foot.

After hesitating a little, Qin Ruyi shouted anxiously. "Pei Lianxue!!"

"Yes?"

?

A voice filled with confusion came from inside the cave, taking Qin Ruyi by surprise.

Qin Ruyi still wasn't quite sure what exactly was going on inside, but from Pei Lianxue's voice, it sounded like she was quite at ease.

Quite at ease surrounded by such pure ice-cold energy?

Qin Ruyi raised her eyebrows and waited silently in the corridor. Seeing that Pei Lianxue still hadn't come out, she shouted again. "Pei Lianxue, can't you find the door?"

"Ah... yes!!" Pei Lianxue replied. "The fog is too thick, I can't see..."

Bang--

"Ouch!!"

It sounded like she bumped her head against the wall.

"..."

Qin Ruyi was at a loss for a moment because there were other disciples in the Qi Refining stage building foundations around her, and she didn't dare to let out her spiritual sense to explore. Her Nascent Soul stage consciousness might cause those disciples who were still building their foundations to have their spiritual energy regress and explode into oblivion.

After waiting for a long time, Pei Lianxue finally walked out of the cave.

Looking at Elder Qin and the three early-stage Foundation Building disciples waiting outside, she shrunk her neck and asked, "Am I... in trouble?"

"Phew--"

Seeing that she was all right, Qin Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly took out a fur cloak from her storage bag to wrap her up.

"You're okay, but..."

As she said that, she looked at the scene in the cave again and briefly recalled the information she saw about Pei Lianxue when she got the roster.

Pei Lianxue ranked A in all respects, with the only C being her spiritual root qualification.

---Three spiritual roots of water, wood, and earth.

It couldn't be said that it was good, but looking at the entire world of immortals, it wasn't too bad either.

"What the hell happened here?"

Pei Lianxue froze but then remembered what her brother had told her before coming to build the foundation and quickly replied, "I accidentally broke the Cold Sky Sand."

"Cold Sky Sand? What were you doing with that thing?"

Pei Lianxue thought for a moment and said, "My brother said that it can save your life. If you encounter any crisis, break the Cold Sky Sand into pieces, and no one can get close to you."

Qin Ruyi was speechless and wanted to go straight to Pei Lianxue's brother and give him a scolding.

"Nonsense! After the Cold Sky Sand is broken, no one can get close to you, and you yourself will be dead."

Feeling helpless, she pinched the bridge of her nose, then scolded Pei Lianxue. "You were lucky this time. You have just built the foundation and have too much spiritual power in your body. In addition, you might be more adaptable to the cold, so you were fine. Anyone else would probably have died on the spot."

"Ah... yes." Pei Lianxue nodded shyly. "I understand."

"Whew---it's okay, it's okay now. Are you feeling any pain?"

Pei Lianxue hastily shook her head. "No."

"Then, go back and rest for a few days. I will take care of the damage to the Spirit Gathering Array for you. You can write a review and give it to me tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

"Oh... Okay!!!"

"You are still so energetic after this..."

"Ehehehe... my brother taught me."
