Gu Qingqing, who is she? The only personal disciple of the Human Immortal Gu Ziying, and the current Saintess of the Mysterious Maiden Peak, one of the six major sects.

And who is Xiao Lin? The senior disciple of the seventh sect among the six major sects, the Flowing Cloud Sect, and the top disciple of Leng Youxue, a dominant figure in the cultivation world... What? What's a dominant figure? Ah, it's actually a nickname given to Leng Youxue by the cultivation world. However, Leng Youxue doesn't like this title, so up until now, besides Gu Ziying, no one dares to mention it in public, as no one can be sure if this dominant figure will come knocking...

Ahem, let's not digress. In summary, this battle is a spar between the chief disciples of two top sects, how could it not excite those who enjoy watching the fun in the cultivation world?

Especially since Gu Qingqing just broke into the Core Formation Realm six months ago, her current combat strength is a mystery. Meanwhile, Xiao Lin, although having entered the Core Formation Realm two and a half years ago, hasn't shown himself in the cultivation world for a long time, making his combat strength equally mysterious.

This undoubtedly makes those who enjoy watching the fun even more excited, even the other five sects among the six major sects have started to pay attention to this event—after all, regardless of the entertainment, the strength of the chief disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Mysterious Maiden Peak is already quite important intelligence.

In short, the entire cultivation world is discussing this matter.

However, when everyone learned that the battle venue was set at the Flowing Cloud Sect, they were all greatly disappointed.

The Flowing Cloud Sect, how should I put it, lacks the etiquette a major sect should have. They've more than once directly thrown out visiting guests, including the sect leaders of the six major sects... Yes, personally thrown out by Leng Youxue.

According to Leng Youxue's public statement, if the Flowing Cloud Sect invites you, you can come, but if they haven't invited you and you insist on coming, if she's in a good mood, that's fine, but if she's in a bad mood, it's as if you're openly challenging the Flowing Cloud Sect, wanting to spar with her.

And unfortunately, the Flowing Cloud Sect's public relations representative, Zhang Xinzhu, directly announced that during the sparring, any uninvited guests would not be welcomed.

With this announcement, aside from a few reckless ones, the vast majority of cultivators who initially wanted to join the fun gave up on the idea.

Disperse, disperse, life is more important.

However, even though they couldn't witness the process, everyone was still closely following the event, as at least the outcome would be known—even if the Flowing Cloud Sect, which usually doesn't like to publicize these matters, doesn't announce the result, if Gu Qingqing wins, the Mysterious Maiden Peak will definitely make a big deal out of it, and if the Mysterious Maiden Peak remains silent after the sparring, it's likely that Gu Qingqing lost.

Flowing Cloud Sect, Green Lotus Peak.

Inside that rather simple hut.

Yu Qiaoxi sat at the table, sipping hot beast milk while looking at her little notebook.

She, Yu Qiaoxi, lives around the Green Lotus Peak of the Flowing Cloud Sect, single, and apart from cultivating, she is devoted to various research, which she is very passionate about. She doesn't read novels, only sips spirit wine, goes to bed at midnight, sleeps for three hours every day, and before sleeping, she always drinks a cup of hot beast milk, reads her research notes for half an incense stick's time, and falls asleep immediately upon lying down, sleeping until dawn, never carrying fatigue and stress into the next day. Even the Senior Brother of Green Lotus Peak says she's very normal.

...Well, that last statement is now questionable.

In short, due to the progress of a new research project, Yu Qiaoxi decided to spend the night in the small hut tonight.

"Hmm... still feels like something's off, but I can't figure it out..." Yu Qiaoxi placed the empty cup aside, frowning at her little notebook, looking quite troubled.

She was naturally alluring, and at this moment, her slight frown was even more captivating, full of charm.

However, no one was there to appreciate this scene.

"Let's wait for tomorrow's experiment results..." Yu Qiaoxi glanced at the alchemy cauldron beside her, which was glowing with multicolored light, pondering silently.

...Poor He Yun, the master of Fragrant Pill Peak, would probably be heartbroken if she knew that the Earth Rank alchemy cauldron she gifted to Yu Qiaoxi had never been used to refine even a single pill.

"Chirp chirp."

A blob of sticky substance suddenly jumped onto the table, extending two tentacles from its round body, wrapping around Yu Qiaoxi... well, not Yu Qiaoxi, but the cup, and then pulling it into its body.

With its slight wriggling, when the cup was taken out again, it was as good as new.

The slime born from the Spirit Gathering and Manifestation Array, Xiaohong, makes its appearance again!

Perhaps many have forgotten this little divine beast that attracted the Fivefold Tribulation Lightning? Anyway, the author just remembered...

But that's not important.

"Xiaohong, where did you go to play today?" Yu Qiaoxi raised her hand to pet Xiaohong, asking casually.

"Chirp chirp." Xiaohong's round eyes flashed, making an unintelligible sound.

"Oh, I see." Yu Qiaoxi nodded, not understanding at all.

"Chirp chirp." Xiaohong, happy to receive a response, jumped into Yu Qiaoxi's arms.

"Hmm, you seem to have gotten a bit stronger?" Yu Qiaoxi looked down at Xiaohong, raising an eyebrow slightly.

If it were a while ago, she might have wanted to study Xiaohong immediately, but now, she no longer has that thought—because on the day she brought Xiaohong home, she conducted a detailed and comprehensive study on it... and came to no conclusions.

The only thing she could confirm was that Xiaohong and the slimes from her original world were not the same species, at least their physical composition was different.

But more specifically, she really couldn't figure it out, including the phenomena of Xiaohong being able to make sounds, becoming smarter, and its aura gradually strengthening, she conducted a series of studies, yet still made no progress.

It seems she still doesn't have a comprehensive understanding of some knowledge in this world...

Looking at Xiaohong, who was starting to doze off in her arms, Yu Qiaoxi's thoughts drifted back to her companions from her original world.

The Frost Dragon, Gran.

As the image of that dragon appeared in her mind, Yu Qiaoxi's alluring eyes showed obvious sadness.

Back then, they, one person and one dragon, laughed together, fought together, and traveled across the continent together.

If it weren't for saving her, Gran wouldn't have fallen...

The pain, it's too painful!

That's why she willingly passed through the Gate of the Dark Realm, to gamble on the possibility of becoming a Grand Archmage, and use a Forbidden Technique to resurrect Gran.

But now, it seems that returning to her original world might still take a long time...

Yu Qiaoxi turned to look at the moonlight streaming in from the window, sighing softly.

Her cultivation level can't fall behind, the research on Forbidden Techniques can't fall behind, and the study of the knowledge systems of the two worlds can't fall behind either, just thinking about it gives her a headache... studying Senior Brother is still simpler.
