Morning. Before Sunrise. Zhi Rui did not sleep. Her body felt weak and empty. If not because she exercised daily she would be too weak to walk.

She walked out slowly from the tent.

She heard a cracking sound. Zhi Rui turned to look. Xunhue stepped on a dead stick trying to sneak back into her tent. Her robe was loose and stained with sweat. she looked awkwardly disheveled at Zhi Rui. Her face turned red and she entered her tent. Right after Guang Jing got out of his.

Zhi Rui did not need to think much to know what happened and why. But the look on Guan Jings disgusted Zhi Rui. He looked so full of himself.

Right as the twins, woke up. they resumed the journey.

The group focused on the wealth while Zhi Rui sought her own enlightenment.

They traveled for half a day before they found a skeleton wearing white armor, seating on a majestic throne enveloped by grass and flowers. Zhi Rui looked at the thick green flame inside its ribcage. Her Eyes couldn't leave it, soon she was in a complete trance. Not one noise from outside registered in her mind.

Guan Jing and the others did not move as Zhi Rui started glowing, an opaque light shone from her eyes.

Zhi Rui's body floated up and the air started to circulate around her. A vortex of wind and dead leaves surrounded her.

Horrendous screams that sometimes sounded far away and sometimes you could hear them in right beside your ears.

Guan Jing's face crumbled. Zhao Lin and Xunhue were confused.

Slowly, the wind turned weaker and the screams ceased, Zhi Rui floated back to the ground. Her eyes were glowing with a dim white light. She looked at each person in the group. They all felt a chill on their back.

"Enlightenment!?" Han Feng blurted out involuntarily. The girls widened their eyes in surprise.

Zhi Rui did not bother with them, she looked around, a string of green spiritual force spread around. 'they are all connected to the spread undead.' Zhi Rui thought.

The strings all led to a single direction. Zhi Rui jumped on top of a tree and looked where the strings met. With a single look, Zhi Rui's narrowed her eyes. A cold gleam shined through them. She smilingly looked a the people below. "Came and see it."

Han Feng was the first. He climbed up and gasped. Then Zhao Lin did and a smile came over her face. Everybody looked.

A pagoda poked out of the ground, it had four entrances one in each side with ten undead for each entrance. The terrain around seemed to be blown away. fallen trees and dirt. As if the pagoda came from the ground.

They all jumped back down. Han Feng was excited, "The sect will give us an enormous amount of merit points for the discovery. Hell, it might even grant us a wish."

Zhao Lin and Xunhue nodded, they were smiling, already planning what to do with their rewards. Guan Jing abstained from speaking.


Han Fei Frowned.

Zhi Rui observed the undead in front of them seated in the throne. From all the undead until now, It was the showiest. with the biggest green flame. Zhi Rui looked behind him and his connection to the pagoda several times thicker.

Zhi Rui raised her palm and sunk it onto its chest. Taking a small green gem from inside.

Instantly, Guan Jing and the Han brothers looked at her direction.

Zhi Rui sighed at their greediness. She did not put it on her storage pouch merely looked a the seated armored skeleton.

Suddenly the plants enveloping the throne dried up and died. The armored skeleton broke down to ashes. But the green flame still on the throne.

A deep hoarse voice, seemingly from hell spoke aloud.

"The inheritance lay ahead for those who are pure of heart. And absent in the flesh."

They all widened their eyes. Han Feng was jumping in place more excited than ever. "It's an inheritance from an ancient cultivator! Ha! We just gained a tremendous amount of prestige just by discovering it!

Zhi Rui did not want for them to delay too much again so she spoke. "We should enter it."

"What!?" Zhao Lin questioned.

"I Agree with junior sister Zhi Rui" Han Fei nodded firmly.

"What!?"

This time Han Feng was the one to exclaim.

Xunhue. was anxious to vote against it. but she saw the gleam in Guan jing's eyes, and for her future. She nodded and spoke nervously. "I also Agree with Zhi Rui."

Zhi Rui knew well how the talk will go; Han Fei will convince Han Feng. And Xunhue is trying to get benefit out of Guan Jing. So she'll vote in favor.

In the end, Zhao Lin will be in despair as she's the only one against it. and with no way to go back alone.

As they proceeded to talk Zhi Rui focused on her new understanding of spiritism. She looked around, she could see the immaterial, the ethereal. even other people's aura. She looked at Han Feng and saw a slightly yellow agitated aura. 'Fear' Zhi Rui thought. She looked at Han Fei. His aura emitted some dim green aura.

Zhi Rui smiled. Judging by the way he behaved until now, it's probably greed or ambition. Zhi tui thought.

This ability she acquired isn't common, looking inside herself Zhi Rui felt her now slightly red blessing of lust, spread out of the core into her eyes.

It was immature, and there was still too much to study, but it was already strong enough.

Zhi Rui tried to relish on the feeling. but the discussion was getting too loud. She looked coldly to the side. 'kill them...' Zhi Rui thought about her overall plan to console herself when a light went off in her head.

Zhi Rui laughed. The people stopped arguing and looked at her.

Zhi Rui turned and smiled warmly at them. The crystal ball on her storage pouch, The sect leader, the pagoda. All suddenly interlined and a plan formed. Zhi Rui finally felt a weight off her shoulders.

She Spoke

"Guan Jing, you have an emergency sign as the leader of the party, right? Just use it the sect elders will come to this place. From this distance, it'll take them at least a whole day to reach here. While we wait. those who want to participate in the trial can go, those who don't can stay and wait for the elders.

Guan Jing thought, he almost refused it without thinking because it came from Zhi Rui but the chance to get to a treasure mine before anyone is a fat sheep he cannot let go of. He nodded and broke a brown stick in half.

"This stick represents priority issues, not an emergency so around three outer elders will come. we took almost three days, they'll take one and a half. "

Guan Jing then stomped on the ground and a dome-shaped barrier formed keeping the sound from getting out.

"Now those who'll go. let's go." Guan Jing said and walked off.

Han Fei followed.

Zhao Ling did not move from her spot. Xunhue and Han Feng hesitated.

Zhi Rui smiled. Since things got like this, it doesn't matter who stays and who goes.

With the most sincere smiled she gave since the beginning of the expedition Zhi Rui pulled the crystal ball from her storage pouch.

She motioned it to Zhao Lin. "The elders are supposed to come here in a day, the latest two days. it's better for you to use this, it's not bound and can enhance your attribute and store a spell inside.

Zhao Lin was moved. she kept Zhi Rui at an arms distance since the beginning. Yet here is Zhi Rui offering one of her personal weapons as help. Zhao Lin sighed and held it tightly.

"I know how to use it, it can store spells and increase the powers of elements right. Thank you." She bowed sincerely.

With s childlike smile Zhi Rui walked off. Right after, Xunhue hesitantly followed.

Han Feng hesitated a lot but did not move from the place. And stayed with Zhao Lin

Zhi Rui walked carefreely. She would get whatever She could from the trial.

if everything goes right today, the sect of light will give more resources for the disciples, Bianca will have her freedom cut short, and Wang Lei gu, Will watch in rage as her efforts to take over the community center turned out to be in vain.

Thinking about it again, Zhi Rui's blood boiled in excitement.
