Murong Xue felt a little surprised. It was the first time she saw Shangguan Lin dress like this. It was not that it looked strange. On the contrary, it looked so great on him. She wasn't sure if it was her illusion that she felt Shangguan Lin was different from that time when she met him at the Stone Gambling Assembly. It seemed that something had changed in him. However, she couldn't figure it out from his face, and even his purple eyes were still sparkling and dazzling.
"Get in the car! Let's go!" Shangguan Lin said to Murong Xue.
"Go where?" Murong Xue asked as she got into the car.
Shangguan Lin replied as he drove, "You'll know when we arrive. Plus, my master said he wanted to see you. Cultivators don't allow the scorn of others. You just need to mind your attitude."
"What kind of person is your master?" Murong Xue asked.
"Master is very cool, but his level is extraordinarily high, and he is the pillar of our Liuyun Sect. He has already reached the realm of purple-level, and now he is pursuing the way of immortal ascension. He had already indicated that he didn't want to recruit any more disciples, but when I mentioned to him whether he could get you tested to enter the sect, he suddenly said he wanted to see you, which made me feel a little puzzled." Shangguan Lin explained lightly. His master was rarely interested in other things, and he even rarely instructed him and his senior apprentice-brother. However, when he mentioned Murong Xue that day, he clearly sensed the change in his master's emotions.
"What's purple-level?" Murong Xue asked in confusion.
Shangguan Lin turned his head to look at Murong Xue. This look made him realize that she had already reached the orange-level. When he saw her before, she clearly didn't have a cultivation level yet. How could she reach the orange-level after a period of time? He hadn't paid attention to her cultivation level just now.
The car let out a squeaking noise, and Shangguan Lin directly parked the car in the parking lot by the side of the road and then asked in shock, "Xue, when did you reach the orange-level?"
Murong Xue was stunned for a moment, and then she asked vaguely, "Orange-level?"
"You don't know about the cultivation levels? Then how did you cultivate it? Do you already have a master?" Cultivation was very difficult to get started without an initial education.
"I don't have a master, and I really don't know about the cultivation levels. Is that strange?" Murong Xue asked. What made her feel more of a crisis was that Shangguan Lin could see her cultivation level. Could other people also see it? She had misjudged the power of the world of ascension.
"Then how did you reach the orange-level? Don't tell me you cultivated on your own. Do you have a cultivation method?" Shangguan Lin stared at Murong Xue, not missing a single expression from her.
Murong Xue panicked a little and then started to play dumb. She couldn't admit that she had a cultivation method and the Space. "I don't know what you're talking about. You said I'm at the orange-level, but I don't even know what the orange-level is. I haven't even figured out what cultivation is yet." Murong Xue pretended to be even more puzzled and asked back. Her big eyes blinked and blinked, which made her look innocent.
Shangguan Lin looked at her for a long time, then reached out, and grabbed her palm. Murong Xue was startled and instantly tried to shake him off, but she found that she couldn't move. It was the strength gap between cultivation levels. Shangguan Lin had already reached the green-level while Murong Xue was at the orange-level. She certainly couldn't resist, not to mention that she was two levels below him. Even if she was only one level lower, she was a far cry from him.
Murong Xue's face turned pale as she realized the horror of the cultivators. She could feel a surge of spiritual power entering her body, and she tried to dodge into the Space in an instant, only to find that she couldn't enter. Her eyes widened as it was the first time she was unable to enter the Space. It was because Shangguan Lin had bound her with his spiritual power.
"Don't move. I won't hurt you. I just want to see what's going on." Shangguan Lin said with a serious look.
Murong Xue was furious. No matter what the reason was, using spiritual power to enter her system without her permission was simply too much! But at the same time, it also made her realize how powerful cultivators were. If she had run into such an opponent, she would have been dead by now. Her idea that the Space was all-powerful had vanished in an instant.
For the first time, she felt that cultivation was so important.
After a while, Shangguan Lin let go of her, and he said with some displeasure, "You lied to me."
Murong Xue rubbed her sore hand, and she didn't speak. Her lie had been nailed, and she didn't want to explain. For a moment, there was silence in the car. Murong Xue thought about whether she should flash into the Space right at the moment, but it was too dangerous to enter the Space in Shangguan Lin's car.
After a while, Shangguan Lin restarted the car and said, "Forget it. Don't talk about it if you don't want to." Just after that, Shangguan Lin didn't say a word anymore, and they remained silent in the car.
Murong Xue bit her lip. It wasn't that she wanted to lie, but the Space was too important. Besides, she didn't know Shangguan Lin very well yet. She had only gone with him to see a sea of flowers. She didn't even know what his character was like, so how could she dare to submit everything to him?
She looked at Shangguan Lin, who was sullen, and whispered, "I'm sorry..."
Shangguan Lin's hands on the steering wheel tightened, but the sullen look on his face eased a little.
When he used his spiritual power to check Murong Xue's system just now, he found that a lot of spiritual qi had already condensed in her pubic region, which was not something that someone without cultivation would have. It was obvious that she was lying to him. Realizing this, he had a hint of displeasure.
But then he thought about it, and it was understandable.
Hearing her apology, his last trace of anger dissipated. To be honest, they were really not that close.
Murong Xue didn't feel surprised as the car drove further away from the urban area. A cultivation sect like this couldn't be built in the urban area.
The car drove up to a high mountain, which was rocky. There was no other way.
Shangguan Lin stopped the car and then said to Murong Xue, "Get off!"
Murong Xue was stunned and then followed him out of the car. She couldn't help but ask, "Is this the place?" But there was nothing here.
"Of course not. Come with me. There is a teleportation formation of the cultivation sect here. We need to use that to get to the master." Shangguan Lin walked towards the cliff as he spoke.
Murong Xue followed him with her luggage.
"Give me your luggage!" Shangguan Lin stretched out his hand as he spoke to Murong Xue.
Murong Xue was at a loss as she handed over the luggage. After Shangguan Lin took it, he instantly put it inside a palm-sized cloth bag.
Her eyes suddenly widened in some disbelief as she asked, "What's this?"
Shangguan Lin wasn't surprised by Murong Xue's shocked expression. In fact, he also had this kind of look when he first saw it. "This is a spatial bag that forms its own space inside, which is about one thousand cubic meters. It was made by an alchemist. Alchemists are also classified as cultivators." He shook the spatial bag in his hand and explained.
"Are you saying that everyone in the world of ascension has his Space?" Murong Xue asked. She thought that she was the only one who possessed the Space, but she had never expected to see something similar in Shangguan Lin's hand. She was really too ignorant before. She didn't expect that something as magical as Space could actually be made in the world of ascension.
What kind of magical world was the world of ascension? She was getting more and more curious.
"How is it possible that everyone has it? Regardless of how hard it is to find materials to make it, alchemists have also fallen into decline. There are probably not many alchemists left nowadays. Besides, alchemists generally set the bar too high! If it's not the greatest treasure, they will never make it. Even if they do, there is no guarantee that they will succeed in making it. That's why there aren't many people who have Space." Shangguan Lin explained.
"I see." But at least, it proved that she wasn't the only one who had the Space, and she understood that.
However, what Murong Xue didn't know was that Shangguan Lin's spatial bag was different from hers. The spatial bag couldn't contain living things, which would die instantly as soon as they were put into it, whereas Murong Xue's bracelet of the Space was able to keep living things alive.
"Give me your hand." Shangguan Lin said.
Murong Xue asked in confusion, "Why?"
"We're going down." Shangguan Lin pointed down the cliff.
Murong Xue was surprised and asked, "Going down? Can we be alive?" She even couldn't see the bottom of the cliff at a glance. If people went down from here, their bones could probably be shattered into dregs.
Shangguan Lin laughed and said, "Don't worry. We won't die! Would I risk my life with this?"
Murong Xue glanced at him to make sure he wasn't committing suicide before carefully placing her hand in his.
Shangguan Lin held her hand tightly and then said softly, "Let's go."
The two of them instantly jumped down the cliff. Murong Xue was so shocked that she couldn't help but scream out in horror. "Ah!"
"Stop screaming and open your eyes. We're safe." After a while, Shangguan Lin's voice sounded in her ears.
Murong Xue didn't seem to feel the initial weightlessness. She opened her eyes slightly, only to find that the two of them were actually floating in the air, and there seemed to be a transparent barrier around them to block the falling airflow.
