If the Divine Beast fell in the central area, it can be inferred that there is likely a third or fourth stage beyond this, indicating how vast this forbidden zone truly is.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Actually, most people are trapped at the first stage. If it weren't for singing the love song, I probably wouldn't have found the key so easily.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The real danger in these ten thousand ancient mines is hidden in those mine shafts!\" Shen Hanyi remarked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing remained silent, merely observing quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seems that, if one day I reach the Celestial Fate Sacred Dynasty, this level five Cultivation Country, exploring this forbidden zone should not be difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We can't fly too high; some mine shafts have no-fly zones above them. Nor can we go too fast, or tear through space to move, even though it looks peaceful ahead, it's full of traps...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Hanyi continued to brief Zhou Qing on the various precautions she had gathered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing nodded slightly, secretly relieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had been worried that Shen Hanyi's speed would be too fast, exposing his true cultivation not being at the Spirit Severing Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the two cautiously ventured forward through the ancient mines ahead...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, in a misty rear mountain area, there was a small pitch-black hut, entirely surrounded by a vague Restriction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Runes on the Restriction flickered, faintly glowing with four-color light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, a few inconspicuous stones quietly rolled on the ground, pausing abruptly after moving a certain distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, the stones surprisingly split open with cracks, revealing pairs of green eyes, cautiously watching the surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they approached the small black hut, the stones piled on top of each other, forming a stone monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It opened its mouth, extending a long, stone-patterned arm from within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The front of the arm held a black disc imbued with an ancient air, inscribed with Restriction Runes similar to those outside the small black hut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To open or not to open, that is a question worth pondering!\" The stone monster contemplated with the key in hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, Big Smart, what are you doing? While my sister's not here, hurry up and let me out!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after, an urgent young voice came from within the small black hut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stone monster, called Big Smart, looked up at the hut, hesitated briefly, then swallowed the key again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My Lord, perhaps we shouldn't. If the young lady finds out, she'll surely destroy me,\" the stone monster grumbled in a muffled voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young voice answered again, \"I'm already healed now, I must repay this debt of gratitude.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's enough that you're not causing trouble!\" The stone monster couldn't help raising its voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Big Smart, when have I caused trouble? Do you know what my sister went through for these two Divinity Transformation Spirit Medicines?\" The young man said emotionally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stone monster trembled slightly and said, \"I know, when the young lady finally brought back that Crimson Flame Golden Vine, she was severely injured but still holding on. Even I felt heartbroken seeing it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, I must repay this favor on her behalf. The forbidden zone won't allow me; then I will go to that level four Cultivation Country she mentioned. That's permissible, right?\" The young man's voice was resolute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stone monster, filled with doubt, asked, \"What are you going to do there?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"While she was talking to Father, I overheard things in a daze. There's someone named Zhou Qing there who helped her get this Crimson Flame Golden Vine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But at that time, she was grievously wounded, and her Magical Treasures and pills were depleted. She left with just a word of thanks.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man's voice rose, continuing, \"How is that right? Our Shen Family has always repaid kindness, especially when that Divine Medicine saved my life, so this debt I must personally repay. Big Smart, don't you agree!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stone monster hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That reasoning seemed sound, yet something felt off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're not going to cause trouble again, are you? The young lady is still at home!\" the stone monster asked worriedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course not, do I look like that kind of person? Besides, I want to continue refining my Realm and quickly break through to Divinity Transformation Perfection and advance to Spirit Severing Realm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Being locked in a small black hut all the time is no long-term solution, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man's voice rang out confidently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But—\" the stone monster remained indecisive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man's voice drifted out leisurely, \"I happen to have an Imaging Stone here, capturing a certain someone's antics after getting drunk...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'll open, I'll open! But I have a condition; you must knock me out!\" Before the young man finished speaking, the stone monster, as if its tail was stepped on, urgently interrupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man smiled triumphantly and responded crisply, \"No problem!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",939,"2026-06-09T06:34:13.701Z",1,"novelbin.me","795f720e29a47245ccf988b730bc60ac2accc2ed55228d2c8061f66e54c8739e","the-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-chapter-790","the-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-chapter-788",1176,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-cover.jpg"]
