Heaven-defying Phoenix

"If I can't do it, then no one else can."    

Jiu Muli chuckled, then, she seized the time to recover. Four hours later, when her strength had once again recovered to its peak, she made her move.    

When the secret art of invisibility opened, she closed in on the city again without anyone noticing.    

This time, the group of demons became well-behaved, and stayed inside the barrier to the death, not going out. But Jiu Muli knew, if she did not use her time to take action, this balance would be broken very quickly, and the experts of the demons would probably already be on their way.    

She retracted her aura, allowing herself to be completely detached from the outside world. A faint illusory halo began to flow on the surface of her body, transforming into many fragmented rune s that could not be wiped off.    

The defense of the city was still tight, and the barrier that she did not feel previously was emitting an astonishing destructive aura, causing her to tremble in fear.    

"It really is a dragon's lair and a tiger's lair."    

She sighed, and slowly closed in. Finally, she passed through the outer barrier, easily like how she did previously, and started exploring all around, copying the barrier, trying to understand its nodes, to find a way to break it.    

Unfortunately, her understanding of the barrier was limited to just a little bit, and she was unable to understand it at all. In the end, she had no choice but to give up.    

Fortunately, the secret art of invisibility was very powerful and complemented her own cultivation technique, especially in the Zhuang Zhou's Butterfly Astral Soul. The power of her illusions burst forth, adding to that she was the one in charge of the furnace, she easily severed all connections with the outside world. In the end, after a few probing sessions, she discovered, as long as she did not reveal too much of her strength, that terrifying killing barrier was still useless against her.    

Without disturbing the barrier, she relaxed and once again began to wander around boldly and confidently, gathering information in secret. She was especially concerned about the dungeon.    

She remembered that the Evil Demon had mentioned the dungeon before, and there were actually cultivators locked up inside. She felt that Xiao Buyi and the rest were most likely among them.    

However, what made her regret was that after going around in a circle, besides understanding the barrier, she still had not found anything of value in the dungeon. Although this group of demons knew about the dungeon, they had no idea where the dungeon was.    

Half a day later, Jiu Muli finally understood all the barrier in the entire city, and then she did not stay, and decisively left.    

When Yu Bu Jin and the rest saw that Jiu Muli had returned safely, they could not help but heave a sigh of relief.    

However, when they saw Jiu Muli's ugly expression, they could not help but frown: "What, is the matter very thorny?"    

"It's not tricky at all, it's simply like a dragon's lagoon or a tiger's den."    

Jiu Muli sighed, and explained the barrier s inside, then said: "I am not worried about anything else, it is just that the killing barrier is too strong, there is a limit to my cultivation, do you have any way to break through the barrier?"    

After all, she was a highly skilled disciple of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets.    

"I haven't seen it with my own eyes, so I can't guess."    

Last time, he was only observing from the distance and basically didn't have the strength to get close, so he didn't know how to make a move.    

"I've got it!"    

As Jiu Muli spoke, he tapped Yu Bu Jin's forehead and told the other party everything about the barrier.    

This time, she searched very carefully, especially towards those barrier s. She was extremely concerned, so she remembered them very clearly.    

Receiving the memories that Jiu Muli passed over, Yu Bu Jin quickly sank into deep thought. From time to time, he would even draw something on the ground with his hands.    

"Cousin sister, do you have any pill s that can help you increase your cultivation?"    

Seeing that, Da Lin quietly went over to Jiu Muli and asked.    

"For what?" Jiu Muli was surprised.    

"I... My cultivation is not enough, I want to improve myself faster. " On the road, he traveled together with Yu Bu Jin. On the way, although he had trained a lot and grown strong enough, he was still not strong enough, and was still a burden to Yu Bu Jin.    

"Cultivation can only be a step at a time, there's no need to rush."    

Jiu Muli sighed, she had long seen that the talent of Da Lin and the rest were not good, to be able to reach this point, Yu Bu Jin had most likely wasted his mental energy.    

"I know."    

Da Lin Zi silently nodded his head.    

Seeing this, Jiu Muli was also helpless, the road of cultivation was extremely cruel, the higher one went, the more difficult it was, it was to have high requirements for one's talent, disposition, and especially for perception.    

Therefore, she took out two Holy Spirit Fruit and gave them to Da Lin. She said, "You and Feng, each take one and use it. I don't have the ability to refine these pill either, so this should be of great help."    

"Holy Spirit Fruit!"    

Da Lin looked at the fruit in Jiu Muli's hands that was so fragrant that it would make people salivate and exclaimed in shock. He quickly rejected it, "No need, Cousin, this is too precious."    

No matter how foolish Da Lin was, he knew how valuable Holy Spirit Fruit were. They were supreme holy medicine s, and in the entire Three Immortal Heavens, not many sect possessed them.    

"Alright, take it."    

Jiu Muli insisted, thought for a while, then took another pill: "Take this as well, give it to your big brother."    

"Thank you, Cousin."    

Da Lin was extremely grateful, thinking back to when he was just a little Venerability, his talent was limited, he never expected that there would be a day like today.    

"There's no need to be courteous, just focus on your training in the future."    

Jiu Muli said, and thought for a moment, then continued: "Remember, talent is not important, what is important is the dao heart. You must know what you want, what you want to become, and stabilize your dao heart.    

If one's talent was not good, there would be countless pill s. Of course, there was a way to make up for it.    

However, she still felt that there was still a glimmer of hope for Da Lin, Feng and the others. After all, their thoughts were simple enough and pure enough, and such a person without many distractions would easily get close to the main road. However, this kind of thing was very difficult to predict.    

If the group of chosen were to seek the Great Dao, then they could only rely on themselves. After all, their comprehension abilities were insufficient, and it was difficult for them to take the initiative to comprehend the Dao on their own.    

Some things were like math problems. Some people would know what was going on when they saw it, and some people would die without being able to understand it. As for why they thought this way, no one could explain it.    

When Jiu Muli saw this, he did not say much. They were all from Great Emperor, even if Great Lin and Great Gale's perception were not good enough.    

"Cousin, from today onwards, you are my blood cousin."    

Before leaving, he did not forget to give a pill to Jiu Muli and said: "Cousin sister, keep this to yourself."    

"This is?"    

Jiu Muli took a look at it, his expression immediately changed, and said: "Where did you get this?"
