Ming Fan and Lin Wanshu looked at each other and thought that this change came at a very timely moment.

Sun Qing lowered his eyes and continued, “In the past, at least two-thirds of the ten thousand people who came to this mysterious realm could return.

But I don’t know what has happened in the past thirty years. Out of 10,000 people who go in, it’s considered a lot if only one tenth can come out.”

What's more, the number of people entering the secret realm each time is always more than ten thousand.

"It's a heavy loss, I pity you."

Ming Fan nodded sincerely.

Sun Qing choked and thought to himself that it was useless to just be pitiful.

“So the secret realm is like a flood and a beast to humans right now.”

"So you want us to die for your Sun family?"

Rong Hua covered his mouth and blinked his eyes in surprise, as if to say, "How could you be like this?"

"of course not!"

Sun Qing quickly shook his head, this made them sound like evil bastards.

“We don’t want you fellow immortals to replace our Sun family.

We just want to hire you and try our best to protect the monks of my Sun family.

The difficulty in the secret realm is getting higher and higher. To be honest, our Sun family has been selected by the secret realm for 30 consecutive years..."

If they don’t find a way, their Sun family will be wiped out by this mysterious secret place.

"And it's not just us. Other selected clans and forces should also be recruiting people if nothing unexpected happens."

After all, if one could recruit some powerful cultivators to serve their own clan, then the disciples and clansmen in the clan might have an extra way to survive.

"Since entering the secret realm is so dangerous, why do you still want to go?"

Lin Wanshu looked at Sun Qing: "The secret realm is open, so just don't go."

If you don't go, there will naturally be no losses or casualties.

Sun Qing sighed and found a seat to sit down. If only it were as simple as he said.

"Once the secret realm designates the participating forces, it cannot be changed. If the corresponding number of people are not selected to participate, I'm afraid... I'm afraid the entire family will be destroyed."

It’s not that they haven’t tried to resist before, but the price they paid in the end was even higher than expected.

After hearing what Sun Qing said, Ming Fan looked strange.

Why does she feel that there is no difference between this secret realm and the man-eating monster?

"Are you sure this is a secret place and not the alchemy furnace of Taishang Laojun?"

Put the people in there, and then kill them all at once like making an elixir.

"..."

Sun Qing was speechless for a moment. He didn't know what Ming Fan was talking about.

"So you don't know what happened in the secret realm?"

Ming Fan looked at Xiao Yunyang in surprise. He didn't expect that his usually taciturn fourth brother would be interested in this matter.

Sun Qing nodded and said, "I have asked some of the disciples who managed to survive, but they don't remember anything.

The memories in the secret realm will disappear inexplicably once you leave the secret realm."

“But…” Sun Qing paused and said, “Those who can come out have gained a lot.

There are also rumors that the secret realm is an ancient relic, so there are many ancient magical instruments and rare spiritual plants in it.

There were even some ancient inheritances among them before, and those who were lucky enough could obtain them."

Ming Fan clicked his tongue twice. This might be the only place in this secret realm where there were people.

But it's also true, he is totally inhumane. I'm afraid even if these monks risk their lives, they will not go in to seek death.

Seeing that Ming Fan and the others were silent, Sun Qing looked up and asked eagerly, "So..."

"Not interested in."

Le Shan waved his folding fan and took the lead in expressing his opinion.

"It's boring."

Ming Fan held his chin in his hand and refused just as straightforwardly.

"no idea."

Lin Wanshu shook her head apologetically.

Sun Qing: “…”

Ming Fan: "So can we go now?"

Sun Qing: "Ah? Oh...of course you can."

Ming Fan immediately stood up and said to Lin Wanshu and the others, "Let's go, let's go back."

Lin Wanshu and Leshan happily stood up, and the few of them walked out of the yard.

It was a mysterious place, and there was no reason for them to go there. It was better to have less trouble than more.

Sun Qing watched Ming Fan and the others leave with helpless eyes, feeling a sense of powerlessness rising up in his heart.

Their Sun family has been selected by the mysterious secret realm for three consecutive years. Three thousand people are enough to shake the foundation of the Sun family.

After thinking about it, Sun Qing gritted his teeth and shouted to Ming Fan and others who were about to leave.

"My Sun family has a secret technique. If you are willing to help, the Sun family is willing to share this secret technique with you."

After he finished speaking, Ming Fan and the others stopped in unison.

Compared to the things in the secret realm, they are indeed more interested in the mystical arts.

Ming Fan turned on his toes and walked back towards Sun Qing.

"What secret technique is it? Tell me about it."

Ming Fan smiled intrigued, if it was a secret technique to achieve immortality, she could really reconsider it.

When Sun Qing saw Ming Fan coming back, his eyes lit up.

She is back, which means there is still hope. Compared with the Sun family's foundation, a secret technique is nothing.

After all, if the entire Sun family is gone by then, even if the secret skills are left, there will be no one to inherit them.

"My Sun family has a magic called the Circulation Technique." Sun Qing looked at Ming Fan's expression and continued, "It is said that when it is fully developed, it can transcend the laws of space and circulate in three thousand interfaces."

This time it was Mingfan who opened his eyes wide.

The art of reincarnation? If what Sun Qing said was true, did it mean that if she practiced this art to perfection, she could go back?

Ming Fan's heart, which had been dead for a long time, suddenly began to beat again.

The reason why she was content with her current situation here was because she knew the hope of returning was slim, but Sun Qing's words gave her hope again.

Although it is still slim, this slimness is different from before.

Ming Fan said nothing, and Sun Qing thought she didn't believe it.

Then Sun Qing raised his hand, and something appeared in his hand, it was a book.

Ming Fan looked in the direction of his movements and saw three big words written on the book - The Art of Circulation.

"This is the first volume of the Cycle Technique. This technique is profound. The second volume... If you can lend a helping hand to the Sun family, I am willing to offer this secret technique to you."

Ming Fan stared at the thing in Sun Qing's hand. She had triggered the law of space before, and now a secret technique of circulation appeared.

Is there any connection between the two?

Ming Fan looked at Lin Wanshu and the others, and at this time Lin Wanshu and Le Shan were also looking at her.

"..."

Ming Fan looked at Sun Qing: "Okay, I can try."

Sun Qing won the bet. The temptation of this secret technique was indeed great enough for her to take risks for it.

Ming Fan finished speaking and waved to Sun Qing: "You can send a message to the Soul Palace to find me for the details. I'm leaving."

Without waiting for Lin Wanshu and the others to react, Ming Fan forcibly pulled them away.

Ming Fan let them go only after they left the yard.

It was her business to promise Sun Qing, but she didn't want to take the risk with Lin Wanshu and the others.

After all, according to Sun Qing, the mysterious secret realm is like a mad dog. Once you enter it, you might get bitten and lose arms and legs.

"Junior sister, did you just agree to him?"

Rong Hua walked up to Ming Fan and waved his hand in front of her.

Normally, Junior Sister is not such an impulsive person. What happened to her today? She was actually fooled by just a few words from others.

Lin Wanshu and Le Shan did not expect Mingfan to suddenly change his mind.

"You..." Lin Wanshu frowned and hesitated to speak.

Le Shan directly took over Lin Wanshu's words and said to Ming Fan: "If you want to learn any secret techniques, we in Qingyang Sect do have them, but those high-level secret techniques have been hidden by Master Lei.

Junior Sister, if you really want to learn, I can sneak into Uncle Lei's bed at night and steal it for you."

There is no need to go on adventure to some mysterious secret place, Le Shan added in his heart.

"Does Fourth Senior Brother think so too?"

Ming Fan looked at Xiao Yunyang, who had been holding the sword in silence.

Xiao Yunyang pondered for a while and nodded.

Although he also wanted to support Ming Fan, judging from what Sun Qing said, that place was definitely not a good place.

Even though there are countless treasures there, you should not go there rashly.

Ming Fan suddenly smiled and punched Le Shan and the others in the chest.

“If one’s life were the same every day, it would be boring.

So, I'll go and scout the way for you guys first...if it's good inside, we can go play together next time."

Ming Fan said it easily, but he was actually not sure about it.

But in the final analysis, this was her own business, and she didn't want her senior brothers to take risks with her.

Since she still has a glimmer of hope, she will have to pay for it.

The atmosphere became solemn for a moment.

Le Shan suddenly laughed and returned to his usual shrewd appearance.

"In this case, I feel that the secret realm suddenly has some interest."

Lin Wanshu smiled warmly: "What Fourth Junior Brother said is exactly what I was thinking."

Rong Hua sniffed and said, "It seems that this time, we have to have some fun without telling He Mu."

Xiao Yunyang: "Together."

So, they all expressed their opinions and looked at Ming Fan.

Ming Fan looked back at the four people in front of him quietly. Just as he was about to speak, Rong Hua grabbed his shoulder.

“Okay, that’s settled.

Let’s go, we finally came to Xiaoyao City, so of course we have to have fun.”

Le Shan: "I heard that the wine from Ze Dui Continent is much better than Qi Ling, so I'll try it today."

Lin Wanshu: "Bring some for He Mu as well. With his personality, he will definitely like it."

Xiao Yunyang: "Hmm..."

……

After Ming Fan and his companions left, Sun Qing stood in the yard for a long time.

“Will they really agree to this?”

A young man of about eighteen or nineteen came out from the darkness, stood beside Sun Qing and asked.

Sun Qing looked at the pavilion where Ming Fan and the others had just sat, and smiled for a long while.

"Will do."

Sun Mo scratched his head: "Master, how can you be so sure that they will agree?"

Ming Fan and his companions don't look like easy-to-talk-to people.

When people interact with each other, there is always something called bond that cannot be severed. As long as the bond exists, things will not be difficult.

Thinking of this, Sun Qing raised his hand and gave Sun Mo a slap.

"I told you to learn more, but you just like feeding pigs!"

Sun Mo covered his head and ran around the yard.

"What's wrong with pigs? Master, don't underestimate pigs, pigs..."

"I'll let you say it again!"

"Master, please stop hitting me!"

Lin Wanshu and the others returned to the Soul Palace, and Ming Fan went to the Pharmacist Palace again.

Since she has decided to go to the mysterious secret realm, she must at least say hello to Elder Wang Ting.

Along the way, many eyes were still on her, but Ming Fan was no longer surprised by this.

After all, with the bounty on her head, she might not be a human being in the eyes of these cultivators, but a pile of walking spirit stones.

However, the bounty has now been withdrawn by the Futu Sect, so even if they see her again, they will not come to kill her.

Ming Fan stepped into the Pharmacist Hall and happened to meet the maid with apricot face and rosy cheeks from last time.

Ming Fan smiled at her as a greeting.

The maid didn't recognize Mingfan when he took off his black robe, but she remembered Mingfan's eyes that day.

Seeing that it was her again, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he went to meet her.

"Sir," the maid bowed, her tone respectful.

After all, she saw the elder of the royal court personally escort Ming Fan away last time.

There are probably no more than two people in the entire Pharmacist Hall who can make the arrogant Elder Wang Ting do this.

"Well, I'm here to find the elder." Ming Fan nodded and walked straight inside.

The maid hurriedly followed and led the way for Ming Fan: "The elder has instructed that if you come to look for him, go directly to the Seventh Floor Cloud Pavilion."

Ming Fan raised his eyebrows calmly. He actually predicted that he would come?

The Pharmacist Hall has a total of eighty-eight floors. In addition to the collection of elixir recipes and various spiritual plants, there are also captive spiritual beasts and some places for entertainment.

Each layer has an elegant name.

Ming Fan was naturally not interested in that kind of fun.

From the moment Ming Fan stepped into the Pharmacist Hall, the guards of the royal court became tense. Ming Fan couldn't help laughing when he saw this and casually called over a servant.

"Go to the seventh floor and tell the elders if there's anything you need."

Compared to that kind of elegance, she prefers to call out numbers directly.

The servant looked at Ming Fan in shock, then changed his expression and pretended nothing had happened. He turned around and hurried upstairs to report.

Ming Fan, the plague god, is here again!

He had to tell others quickly!

After all, the last time Ming Fan came, all of their servants stayed up for two days to restore the place to its original state. And it’s only been two days, and he comes again!

Ming Fan had no idea what they were thinking, so he just picked a seat at random, crossed his legs and took a nap on the table.

After a cup of tea, Elder Wang Ting hurried down from upstairs, saw Ming Fan, and walked straight towards him.

"Friend Mingfan." Elder Wang Ting said with a smile, sitting down on the other side of Mingfan, "I have something to discuss with you."

Ming Fan opened her eyes and was slightly stunned. She didn't expect that Elder Wang Ting would come to her for something.

"Please speak, Elder." Ming Fan moved his body, still leaning lazily in the chair.

Seeing that she seemed unaware, Elder Wang Ting was stunned and asked tentatively: "Young friend, did you not receive the message from me?"

"Ah?" Ming Fan shook his head.

No wonder he expected her to come. It turned out he had come to see her specifically.

"I haven't been in the Soul Palace these two days." Ming Fan explained.

Wang Ting understood. This made sense. He had sent a message to the Soul Palace. Since Ming Fan was not there, it was normal that he didn't receive it.

"Oh, it's nothing important. I just gave some things to you, little friend, and I think you might be able to use them.

In addition, regarding the matter of the sect, I have thought of some other matters, and would like to share them with you, my friend."

God knows how much he fears Ming Fan will change his mind at the last minute, but he will just let it happen subtly, starting from now on.

Ming Fan: "..."

The feeling was given as a gift. No, to be more precise, it was through giving gifts that he constantly reminded her of Wang Tingzongxue's affairs.

How afraid he was that she would stand him up?

"Thank you, Elder." Ming Fan kept smiling. Although he didn't know what it was, it would always be right to agree to it first.

Elder Wang Ting nodded kindly and looked at Ming Fan with a smile: "What is the matter with you, young man?"

He finally realized that Ming Fan came here specially even though he didn't receive his message, so he must have something to tell him.

Ming Fan stood up and said, "During this time, I will go to a mysterious secret place."

Elder Wang Ting: “?”

Seeing that he seemed not to have heard it, Ming Fan repeated it again.

"In the next few months, I will go to a mysterious secret place. This time, I came here specifically to say goodbye to the elders."

Elder Wang Ting: “???”

What did she say? She was going to a secret place?

Still a mysterious secret place!!!

The old man in the royal court stood up and let out a sharp roar: "What did you say?!"
