Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

Chapter 805 World 353

!!!

Shen Ruyin's eyes widened slightly, but her heart was filled with shock and regret.

She was lying in an ice coffin, and the coffin lid was moved before she came out. She was still wearing so much jewelry. How could she not have noticed such a big commotion?

Even with the sound of running water outside, it wasn't enough to raise her guard; Shen Ruyin felt she had no way to argue.

Shen Ruyin gripped the talisman given to her by Chen Ling tightly in her palm; she could break it with just a little more force.

"Who...who are you? Are you alive or a zombie?"

The woman seriously considered it: "Well, I guess I should be considered alive."

"If we're talking about resurrection, maybe that counts?"

Shen Ruyin took two steps back: "What do you mean by 'counting' or 'not counting'? You don't even know if you're still alive?"

“Yes,” the woman waved her hand, and a solid ice wall suddenly rose up behind Shen Ruyin, blocking her retreat.

Shen Ruyin was startled. Although she couldn't tell how powerful this person's cultivation was, it was definitely stronger than her, a mere Qi Refining stage cultivator.

Shen Ruyin gave up any hope and immediately snapped the amulet in her hand, but to her surprise, there was no reaction at all.

Shen Ruyin looked at what she was holding.

Master, you can't give me a counterfeit or substandard product!

"You want to run away? Why?" The woman appeared in front of Shen Ruyin in the blink of an eye.

She looked curiously at the amulet that was broken in two in Shen Ruyin's hand: "Was it made for you by a Nascent Soul cultivator? And his sword intent was sealed inside?"

Good heavens, Shen Ruyin understood. It wasn't that her master had given her a fake; rather, the beauty in front of her was so extraordinary that she had forcibly rendered the talisman ineffective.

Shen Ruyin felt that if there were a next time, she would never believe in such a thing as having a premonition again.

No, it means I will never again be greedy because I think I have something to rely on.

How could she have lost her most important sense of caution because of the treasure?

Seeing Shen Ruyin's annoyed expression, the woman asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Shen Ruyin knew that this person had a high level of cultivation, so she spoke the truth: "I regret my greed."

The woman raised an eyebrow and glanced at the various treasures in the cave: "I should be greedy. I wouldn't let these things go if I saw them."

The woman waved her hand, scattering a pile of things near Shen Ruyin: "Put these away. I'll ask you some questions. If you answer truthfully, I'll let you leave safely."

Such a good thing? Shen Ruyin's eyes lit up. It turned out that her premonition about the benefits was right!

Whether this person would keep their word or not, Shen Ruyin accepted the things without any hesitation: "Go ahead and ask."

The woman was pleased with her obedience, so she brought over a chair and sat down herself: "What year is it now? What are some famous sects in the cultivation world?"

Hearing her question, Shen Ruyin thought for a moment and replied, "It is now the 2823rd year of the Purple Yuan Era. The more famous sects in the cultivation world are the Supreme Sect, the Azure Cloud Palace, and the Blazing Sun Palace..."

The woman did not interrupt Shen Ruyin as she rattled off the names of these sects like a menu, but waited until she finished before asking, "Is the Supreme Sect still one of the twelve peaks?"

Shen Ruyin nodded, wanting to find out if she had any connection with the Supreme Sect, but worried that she might suddenly change her temper, so she simply didn't bring it up.

The trembling of the woman's eyelids indicated the extreme turmoil in her heart.

After a long silence, she finally asked, "Where does the Breaking Mind Peak rank among the current main peaks of the Supreme Sect?"

Does the Supreme Sect have a system of ranking the main peak?

The thought flashed through Shen Ruyin's mind, and she suddenly remembered where she had seen those words written on gold-flecked red paper.

Isn't it in their ancestral study at Po Nian Peak?

Shen Ruyin glanced at the woman and answered her question first: "As far as I know, the Supreme Sect does not seem to have a ranking system for the main peak."

"So much has changed," the woman murmured, as if she wanted to say something more, but then gave up and waved her hand to remove the ice wall behind Shen Ruyin.

Shen Ruyin knew she could leave, but after a moment's hesitation, she asked, "Does Your Excellency have any prior connection with the Supreme Sect?"

"I told you to leave, yet you're still so long-winded," the woman glanced at Shen Ruyin, "Don't you want to leave?"

"Of course not," Shen Ruyin pursed her lips and asked cautiously, "Was the passage on the red paper instructing future generations written by Your Excellency?"

"So what if it is?" The woman was about to wave Shen Ruyin out when she heard her say another sentence.

"Is Your Excellency now in a state of being both in a state of being and without being in a state of being?"

"Ouch!" Shen Ruyin was halfway thrown away by the woman's sleeve, but was pulled back by her.

But this time, Shen Ruyin was not as scared as before.

Sure enough, heaven was still on her side. If she was not mistaken, the person in front of her should be her senior from Breaking Through the Peak—the kind who failed to ascend.

"how do you……"

Before the woman could finish speaking, Shen Ruyin said, "Xingluo, a disciple of Po Nian Peak, pays respects to the Ancestor."

"You're a disciple of Po Nian Peak!" The woman was both surprised and unknowingly timid. Now, looking at Shen Ruyin, her eyes showed obvious affection. "Who is your master?"

Shen Ruyin, fearing that she might not know, mentioned Chen Ling's name and also the names of her ancestors two or three generations back.

The woman seemed to realize something: "You're Junior Brother's disciple? How did you guess I was here?"

Shen Ruyin said, "Originally, I only thought you were a senior of my Supreme Sect because I saw that the Ancestor cared about the Supreme Sect. But after hearing you mention Broken Mind Peak and your courtesy name, I dared to acknowledge you."

"Words?" the woman asked curiously.

Shen Ruyin took out a notebook from the study through the jade ring and respectfully handed it to the woman: "This disciple is fortunate to have read the Ancestor's notes."

The woman flipped through it and confirmed that it was indeed written by her. At the end of the notebook, there was a special mark she had made for herself.

“Lan Yue,” the woman said, “I am Lan Yue, and I am probably your…master’s master’s master’s senior sister.”

Shen Ruyin is now very good at using this opportunity: "Our ancestor is called Lan Yue? Then we are really destined. My name is Xing Luo."

After exchanging names, Shen Ruyin timidly approached and asked, "Master said that this secret realm is only open to cultivators below the Golden Core stage. Ancestor, you are so powerful, why are you in seclusion in this secret realm?"

"Below the Golden Core stage?" Lan Yue pondered for a moment. "Has this secret realm fallen to such a state?"
