Villain: I am not good at fighting.

The abundant spiritual energy penetrated the pores of the skin and poured into every acupoint in the body, cleansing the hair and marrow over and over again. Liu Muqing's spiritual platform gradually solidified and sublimated.

Then the soul and will become one, slowly building a foundation within the body, forming the source of the flow of spiritual power into the acupoints.

After an unknown amount of time, she was suddenly able to see what was happening outside. It was not a sense of déjà vu brought by her eyes, but a mysterious feeling.

It seemed as if there were no blind spots in his vision, and he could clearly see Zhou Tonghao and other cultivators outside from all sides in an instant.

He could even detect their emotional changes, the direction of spiritual energy flow, and determine their next move.

“Is this the divine consciousness born from the combination of soul and will?”

Liu Muqing only felt that her whole body was filled with strength, and the spiritual energy in her body was no longer a wandering passerby. A sense of superiority that surpassed the heavens and the earth arose in her heart.

But soon, a strong rejection came, and the surrounding world seemed extremely weak, as if it wanted to spit out her, a hard bone.

Liu Muqing has the ability to resist now, but she doesn't, and she doesn't dare to do so, because of the might of lightning, if she dares to break through this weak space.

Then she would face the merciless coverage of the might of lightning. She was not yet strong enough to deal with the might of heaven and earth, so she could only allow herself to be teleported away like other cultivators who had broken through the foundation.

"There seems to be something hidden under the Earth Spirit Spring. These lightning bolts are not meant to protect the cultivators from building their foundations, but more like some kind of seal."

The space changed, and the next moment Liu Muqing appeared outside the Kunshan Secret Realm. His foundation-building consciousness subconsciously spread out, and he took in all the movements within a radius of ten miles.

"Not bad, not bad, I finally succeeded in building my foundation, and it's worth it for my cultivation."

Hongqiu appeared beside Liu Muqing. She had been waiting in the exit area for many days.

"Master, don't forget what you promised your disciple."

Liu Muqing's consciousness observed Hongqiu before her eyes.

"Okay, okay, where's your senior sister?"

Hongqiu reached out and took Liu Muqing's pulse, with a smug smile on her face.

Liu Muqing was confused by her action. She forced herself to suppress the doubts in her heart and said an excuse she had prepared long ago.

"The eldest sister is entangled with Zhou Qi from the Holy Beast Mountain. The other party is also a foundation-building cultivator."

"Zhou Qi...what's going on?"

"Zhou Tonghao, the Qi-refining disciple who traveled with Zhou Qi in the Holy Beast Mountain, coveted the beauty of my disciple and kept pestering her. Senior Sister..."

Liu Muqing deliberately left the question blank and did not continue, leaving the rest to Hongqiu to imagine on her own, which could lead her in the wrong direction.

Poor Zhou Tonghao, he was framed just because he met Liu Muqing once. I wonder how he will feel when he gets out.

"My dear disciple, you are really a disaster caused by beauty..."

Hongqiu did not continue to ask, but took Liu Muqing back to the flying boat where the Hongluan Sect was located, letting her stabilize her realm first, and then wait for other disciples to come back one after another.

Having just broken through the foundation-building stage, he really needed to consolidate his realm now. Liu Muqing didn't hesitate to light two sound-isolating talismans and sat cross-legged in meditation beside Hongqiu.

Liu Muqing was back in control again, and Hongqiu was no longer anxious. She did not go to the exit area to wait for Hongdie, but instead sent a message to Elder Guanping of the Hehuan Sect, seemingly reporting something.

Guan Ping's spiritual sense swept over Liu Muqing. Liu Muqing felt sick as if she was being stared at by a poisonous snake. Fortunately, the other party knew that she needed to stabilize her realm now, so he did not scan her frequently.

As for the other monks' glances, they were blocked by Hongqiu, preventing others from spying.

In this situation, Liu Muqing had no way to switch to practicing the "Yijian Lingxiao Jue" obtained in the secret realm and could only continue to practice the "Jiusha Cuanyin Jue".

But after practicing the technique several times, she suddenly felt a chill running through her body, and her whole body became stiff as if she had lost the temperature. Even Xuan Yin was not immune to it.

"The technique... there's something wrong with the technique!"

Hongdie's last words before her death flashed through Liu Muqing's mind. She was not unprepared. She planned to switch to practicing other skills after building her foundation to avoid Hongqiu's plan.

Unexpectedly, Hongqiu was so cruel and planned to make moves when her foundation was not yet solid. You must know that building the spiritual foundation is the basis of cultivating immortals.

Once something goes wrong, it would be easy for her foundation to be destroyed and she would become a useless person, which was inconsistent with Hongqiu's purpose of sending her to the Hehuan Sect to be a jade maiden.

The more solid the Jade Girl's spiritual foundation is, the more Yin Yuan she will have available for replenishment in the future, so Liu Muqing judged that problems would arise in the subsequent exercises.

At this moment, Hongqiu turned around with a smile, came to Liu Muqing, raised her hand to pry open her lips, and stuffed a fiery red pill into her.

Jie Yang Pill, Liu Muqing was familiar with this kind of pill. When she was still at the first level of Qi Refining, Hong Qi gave her this kind of pill. However, the medicinal power of the Jie Yang Pill at that time was much smaller than this one.

"It turns out that she has been doing something since I started to practice Qi."

The scalding hot medicinal power dissolved in her body, and Liu Muqing felt that the stiffness in her body had regained a bit of warmth. She quickly mobilized her spiritual power to suppress the coldness in her body and stopped practicing the "Nine Evils Yin Sutra".

“No need to go through so much trouble. The Nine Evils Cumulative Yin Technique will only backfire once a month at most, and the Jieyang Pill made from the Jieyang Jade Marrow of a Hundred Years can resolve it.

This kind of medicine is not particularly rare except that it is a bit expensive. From now on, as long as you are obedient, someone will make medicine for you."

Hong Qi patted her cheek lightly, leaned close to her ear, and sneered softly:

"You know, when your spiritual consciousness faces an enemy stronger than itself, it will reveal a lot of information, such as the hatred and murderous intent you have hidden towards your master."

Can spiritual consciousness reveal emotions?

It's impossible. The spiritual consciousness is like the third eye of a cultivator, an invisible eye. The sense of déjà vu from the scanning feedback may make people notice it and feel uncomfortable.

But it definitely wouldn't be as emotional as Hongqiu said. Hongqiu was lying to her.

What is her purpose in saying this?

"Master, I may be a little dissatisfied with you, but it is not to the extent of being rebellious."

Liu Muqing found that her words were trembling, and it seemed that her body was still cold, but under the influence of the Xuanyin body, she could not feel it.

"Why hasn't Die come out yet?"

Hongqiu didn't believe Liu Muqing's excuses at all. She put away the medicine bottle and asked coldly.

"Master, why don't you go ask the people at Holy Beast Mountain..."

Liu Muqing felt that there was something wrong with Hongqiu since then. When would she care about the life and death of others?

It is true that Hongdie is her direct bloodline, but marrying Hongdie to her own brother is something that no human being can do.

There are so many castles in the air on Xiaoyun Peak that she sent several generations of disciples to the Hehuan Sect and sold them like livestock in exchange for cultivation resources.

To say that she has a conscience is simply an insult to her conscience!

"Oh~ I want to ask the Holy Beast Mountain. Could it be that you are a traitor and seduced the disciples of the Holy Beast Mountain to frame Die'er?"

Hongqiu seemed to be certain that Hongdie was dead. She reached out and took off Liu Muqing's storage bag, motioning her to open it and cooperate with the inspection.
