When the power from the Eight Desolate Spirit Realm Bamboo enveloped Liang Yi, he realized that this power was completely controlled by Feng Yuyou.

"Is this bamboo offspring given to Feng Yuyou by the Bamboo Elder?"

Liang Yi perceived Feng Yuyou's control over this particular bamboo offspring, silently contemplating in his heart.

The Eight Desolate Spirit Realm Bamboo itself is already an Innate Divine Object. Normally, its offspring can only reach the peak level of Acquired Spiritual Objects, yet the one from Medicine Valley and this one here are both exceedingly rare, having reached the standard of Innate Spiritual Plants.

Owning such an Innate-level bamboo, which can also draw upon the parent's power, Feng Yuyou's true strength can be considered no weaker than an average Seventh Realm Cultivator.

And once Feng Yuyou reaches the Seventh Realm and starts to harness the Power of Laws, this bamboo is bound to exert even greater power in his hands.

The power that wrapped around Liang Yi's body was extremely gentle, almost imperceptibly transferring him and the White Tiger from the room just now to a Secret Realm Floating Island shrouded in mist.

Only when his feet once again touched the soft, muddy ground did Liang Yi begin to survey the environment around him.

The mist around the Floating Island was extremely thick, and Liang Yi could only faintly discern that the island seemed to be floating in the sky.

A glimmering green radiance burst forth from the center of the Floating Island overhead, forming a mysterious Great Formation covering the entire island, gathering the surrounding Spiritual Power from the Void, creating a man-made Cave Heaven Blessed Land.

The mist surrounding the Floating Island was not only dense but also of a unique nature. Even with Liang Yi's vision, he felt a clear resistance, preventing him from seeing the scenery far beyond the island.

"This is an area created within the Eight Desolate Spirit Realm Bamboo, specifically for the cultivators of Abyss Battle City to retreat and cultivate in secrecy. Each Floating Island is exclusive to one cultivator, and the mists of concealment are placed around in the Void to prevent mutual interference."

Feng Yuyou noticed Liang Yi's curiosity about the peculiar Illusion Realm around them and thus spoke up to explain.

"I see..."

Liang Yi nodded in sudden realization; indeed, this was an excellent place for cultivators to go on retreat.

The White Tiger stretched out its paw, amusing itself by repeatedly swatting at the cluster of mist before it, scattering it and then opening its mouth wide to inhale the clouds, evidently enjoying itself immensely.

"Su Youyi's cave mansion for retreat is just ahead, right beneath the green pines and bamboo stones. Ji Ningqiao is also there, waiting for Su Youyi to finish her retreat."

Feng Yuyou smiled slightly and tenderly pointed with her delicate finger toward the green, crystalline gemstone high in the sky.

"May I ask who this Ji person is?"

Walking beside Feng Yuyou, Liang Yi finally took the opportunity to voice the question in his mind.

"You don't know?"

Feng Yuyou showed a surprised expression, seemingly astonished that Liang Yi did not recognize Ji Ningqiao.

"Should I?"

Liang Yi looked baffled; he wasn't one to take the initiative to make friends and chat with others.

"Ji Ningqiao is the granddaughter of Gu Qingniu, the Elder of Medicine Valley, and also the Direct Disciple of Gu Sheng, the Elder. She is essentially the Chief True Inheritor of Medicine Valley."

After watching Liang Yi's eyes for a moment and seeing his genuinely confused expression, Feng Yuyou slowly began to explain.

"Elder Gu Qingniu's granddaughter?"

Liang Yi recalled the Elder Gu Qingniu he had previously met in Qingliang City, who had also given him a considerable amount of help.

Normally, elders tend to greatly dote on their grandchildren. Now feeling rather embarrassed to not even know the name of Elder Gu's granddaughter.

"Ji is a long-time friend of mine. When Su Youyi was injured, it was a mere coincidence she was also here, so I had her examine Su Youyi's condition."

As they walked, Feng Yuyou recounted the incident where they accidentally encountered a Banished Immortal seeking someone from Medicine Valley to heal Su Youyi, and since Ji Ningqiao was by her side, she took on the task.

Having heard this, Liang Yi felt even more embarrassed. After all, her grandfather once saved his junior sister, and now the granddaughter has saved her again; the debt of gratitude was quite substantial.

In just a few words, Liang Yi, led by Feng Yuyou, had already arrived below the green pine and bamboo stones, witnessing a magnificent cave mansion enveloped by an Array.

Above the cave mansion, an Emperor's Crown phantom slowly rotated, while countless streaks of pure Sword Intent swam through the Void like fishes.

To Liang Yi, however, these swimming Sword Intents revealed something else – they appeared to be forming a formation!

Some in groups of twos and threes, and some in hundreds or thousands, the Sword Intents constantly composed various intricate Sword Arrays under the draw of a peculiar attraction.

As soon as an Array was formed, it would collapse, and the disoriented Sword Intents would form new Sword Arrays once more.

In just the short span of a few breaths, Liang Yi witnessed the grouping of Sword Intents forming hundreds upon thousands of entirely different Sword Arrays, with potency hundreds of times stronger than that of individual Sword Intents fighting alone!

Collapse, reform! Collapse, reform!

Such cycles repeated endlessly, as the tormented Sword Intents, under the refinement of the Sword Arrays, visibly sharpened and shone with greater intensity!

Liang Yi could tell that his junior sister must have had some insight while healing; she was now at a critical juncture, and once it concluded, it would be time to come out of retreat.
