Chapter 306: Sneaking into Su Junqing's Cave Dwelling at Night (1)
“Is there anything unique about this secret realm?” Yun Jiuge asked.
“It is extremely dangerous, and it’s an environment that is most unwelcoming to outsiders. Ferocious beasts lurk around every corner. Furthermore, only cultivators who are at the fifth level of the Qi Refining Stage or below can enter…”
Little Fatty began dramatically, but before he could finish his sentence, Yun Jiuge interrupted him.
“Isn’t Su Junqing’s cultivation level currently at the Foundation Establishment Stage?” she demanded. “How is he able to set foot inside this secret realm?”
“The Yin Corpse Sect has a secret technique to suppress his cultivation and make his level appear lower so that he can enter the secret realm. However, even if the secret technique can mask a cultivator’s true abilities, the number of people who can go into the realm at once remains the same. Normally, they do not select more than five members per team for this mission. Otherwise, the secret realm would fall apart,” Little Fatty explained in detail.
The Human-faced Peaches fed on Spiritual Energy from throughout the entire secret realm. Therefore, the place was volatile, and the mere presence of a high-level cultivator could cause it to collapse.
These Human-faced Peaches were valuable because they contained abundant Yin Qi. They also emanated the same aura as creatures of flesh and blood. The Human-faced Peach was an excellent food source for the Yin Corpses, so the Yin Corpse Sect’s members fed them to their Corpses.
Additionally, the Yin Corpse Sect’s members prepared the Human-faced Peaches as a vital supplement for Yin Corpse during its transformation to make it more powerful. Accordingly, the Yin Corpse Sect sent its less advanced disciples on an expedition to the secret realm every year to gather these Human-faced Peaches.
Although Elder Mo Hua gave Su Junqing preferential treatment over the other disciples, the object of desire would not fall into his lap automatically. He still needed to make an effort to acquire them himself.
