Mo Zi Chen smiled and said: "Your cultivation is higher than mine, it's just that the timing isn't right yet."

  She saw the envy in Guo Yue's eyes and didn't want to say more, quickly walking back. She clenched her fists, wanting to shout with joy in her heart. Although passing through the Spiritual Tribulation wouldn't let her jump straight to Building Foundation, this was a crucial point for a Qi Refining cultivator. If she couldn't break through this tribulation, then she would have no hope of advancing further in her lifetime. She was lucky, having broken through the Spiritual Tribulation at just the third layer of Qi Refining, and her future cultivation would be much smoother. At least before Building Foundation, she wouldn't need to worry anymore.

  Right, she had heard the disciples around her say that every cultivator who broke through the Spiritual Tribulation would be given a Qingyu Dan by their sect, which was used to replace tendons and bones, and cleanse the marrow. Lin Shuirui should find herself soon.

  For the rest of the days, she either ate a lot or stayed in her room to stabilize her realm. From refining her Qi to the third layer directly to the fifth layer, it seemed unremarkable, but for Mo Zi Chen, it had opened up a whole new world for her. When she cast her spells, she felt that her body was full of spiritual energy, and her spiritual energy was endless. Even the speed at which she absorbed spiritual energy from the spirit stones had increased. However, the spirit stones from the last time she set up the Ling Gathering Array were all shattered. She slowly refined the broken jade, but there still weren't enough spirit stones to use. She thought that when Lin Shi Rui summoned her, she would ask for a few more. But this day did not come.

  These disciples were still required not to go out, and several close disciples did not appear either, which made Mo Zichen feel quite strange.

  About half a month later, someone suddenly came outside to pass on a message, asking everyone to gather outside.

  Mo Zi Chen followed him out, still in a daze. When they arrived outside, he found that the dozens of disciples who lived here were all standing on the empty ground outside, and some people were whispering: "Have you heard? Recently, there have been many incidents outside the mountain. There are monsters eating people outside!"

  "Yes, I've heard that those demonic beasts are very powerful. As ordinary disciples like us, we definitely can't withstand them. They'll eat people and gnaw until not even a bone fragment is left."

  "So that's why Eldest Sister won't let us out. I heard Master Wang is setting up an array, trying to capture these demonic beasts."

  At this time, Du Guanyun had already arrived in front of them. This little girl, with a stern face, was quite majestic. She coughed and the crowd dared not make another sound.

  "Everyone has probably heard that recently, the mountain outside is plagued by evil spirits, and monsters have appeared, injuring innocent people. The senior sister specially issued an order to let all disciples go out of the mountain to eliminate the monsters. They are divided into five teams, each led by one of us. Now, follow me."

  She finished speaking, and then came to Mo Zi Chen's side, putting two things into her hands. "Congratulations on passing the spiritual tribulation, Master Sister is busy with important matters now and can't leave, let me bring you this Qingyu Dan and Yujian, which has our sect's second heavy heart method engraved on it, you should cultivate well."

  She seemed reluctant to talk to Mo Zichen for too long, quickly finishing her words before turning around.

  Mo Zi Chen pouted, the other person had a cold face, why bother to please this cold buttocks, although she didn't know how she offended this little girl.

  Under Du Guanyun's guidance, the crowd lined up in formation, each person was given a spiritual stone and a small banner of the cloth array. Du Guanyun then had them form an array to move forward, without allowing anyone to wander off at will.

  At this time, Mo Zichen suddenly heard someone calling her name in a low voice. She turned her head to look and found that behind a large stone, Ju Er's hat was exposed. She waved at Du Guanyun to signal him, and Du Guanyun gestured for her to step aside. She quickly ran to Ju Er's side and said happily: "You've finally refined the elixir?"

  Ju Er's broad shoulders and slender neck, with a big head that shook back and forth. Upon hearing Mo Zi Chen's words, he shook his head and said: "The elixir was completely destroyed, not even a bit of it was refined successfully. I had been thinking of bringing some for you this time."

  "How could it be?"

  "Sometimes the dosage of some medicines is not enough, I was too hasty. Thought that with my own fire control technique, it would be fine, but ended up wasting a whole furnace of spiritual medicine." He shook his head, "No more about this. Originally wanted to come see you earlier, but Master Sister has been making me refine equipment these days. Only finished today." He took out something from his pocket and stuffed it into her hand, "This, put it on when you go back."

  "This is the Heavenly Wolf Tendril?" she exclaimed in surprise, holding up a thin, almost translucent piece of armor with crimson floral patterns.

  "Ah, this is a treasured armor I refined using the Celestial Wolf Tendril. As you're just starting out, you don't have anything suitable to use yet, so consider this a high-quality spiritual artifact. It can withstand attacks from three-stage and below demonic beasts. In urgent situations, it can also allow for flight in mid-air, though not over long distances."

  Mo Zi Chen stuck out her tongue: "You're really amazing, so many days of wolf fang, and you can refine such a light garment."

  Ju Er took out two strings of small beads, very delicate, and it was clear that he had carefully carved them. "This one you give to Doudou to tie on his leg, also made from Tian Lang Teng, the two can sense each other, if it encounters danger, you can bring it to escape."

  Mo Zi Chen felt a warmth in his heart, and he didn't expect that he still remembered DouDou. "I'll thank you on its behalf!" DouDou jumped out from behind Mo Zi Chen's shoulder, chirped a few times, and then raised its front paws to express gratitude.

  "Ahah, alright, you'd better be careful this time."

  Mo Zi Chen's heart moved, "Those demonic beasts, are they related to your enemy?"

  Ju Er nodded: "It seems to be someone from the Tianyan Sect who came looking for us, I'm not quite sure. This time it's not just about eliminating the demon beast, there are other things to take care of. In short, Shifu thought it through thoroughly, so nothing should go wrong. Just be careful."

  Mo Zi Chen heard his concern and nodded in gratitude, then left to return to her team. However, Ju Er didn't leave immediately. Mo Zi Chen saw that he was still holding a large basket made of woven vines, which seemed very sturdy, with something inside that was swaying back and forth. She wondered why he didn't store it in his storage space, which would have been more convenient.

  At this time, Ju Er walked to Du Guanyun's side and whispered something to her. Seeing his disciples, they all subconsciously held their breath, looked down, and deliberately avoided looking at his head and skin.

  Two people soon finished talking, Du Guanyun took out a rattan basket, seemingly carrying something, and carried it on her back. She also didn't put it in the storage artifact. Then Ju Er picked up the big bucket and left.

  Du Guanyun turned around and shouted: "Get in line, remember not to leave your post, let's move out!"
