　　Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping smiled helplessly and said：
　　“Abbot Xuanzhi, this trip is not a good thing. Why use this merit to exchange？”
　　Then, he immediately said seriously：
　　“Since that’s the case, then Abbot Xuanzhi, you can also go with us.”
In his opinion, with Abbot Xuanzhi around, it would be better for him and Dongfang Yuejian to have a response.
　　And in fact, with the cultivation and combat power of Xuanzhi and Dongfang Yuejian, not only would they not hold Xu Taiping back, they were very likely to be a great help to him.
　　Xu Taiping didn’t want the two of them to go together, just didn’t want to implicate them.
　　But now it seems that the karma of this trip has long been determined. Even if he forcibly refuses, the two of them will definitely go to the barbaric wilderness by themselves.
　　Since that’s the case, it’s better for the three of them to go together.
　　Seeing that Xu Taiping finally let go and agreed, Abbot Xuanzhi immediately showed joy on his face and chanted a Buddhist name with his hands together.
　　Beside him, Dongfang Yuejian, seeing that Abbot Xuanzhi could also go, also had a happy face.
　　Over the years, in order to help Xu Taiping guard the Dragon-Slaying Monument, the two of them have stayed in the Dry Stone Sea to practice together and cooperate very well with each other.
　　If it weren’t for this, the two of them couldn’t have dragged those three people in the Ferocious Grotto for so long before.
　　“Boom！”
　　At this time, Xu Taiping put away the Dragon-Slaying Monument.
　　As the master of the Dragon Imprisonment Tower, he could directly take the Dragon-Slaying Tablet into the Dragon Imprisonment Tower.
　　After putting away the Dragon-Slaying Tablet, Xu Taiping’s gaze once again looked at this white bodhi tree. Then, he placed his hand on the trunk of the white bodhi tree and said without looking back at the two people behind him：
　　“Master Xuanzhi, Miss Dongfang, before going to the entrance of the Barbaric Lands, I still have one thing to do. Please help me guard for a while.”
　　Upon hearing this, both Dongfang Yuejian and Master Xuanzhi looked at Xu Taiping with curiosity on their faces.
　　At this time, a faint golden halo was emerging around Xu Taiping’s body, and a powerful fluctuation of aura was spreading out like a strong wind, wave after wave, towards the west and the perimeter.
　　At the same time, an extremely powerful true essence and qi and blood were surging into the white bodhi tree in front of him along Xu Taiping’s palm.
　　Seeing this situation, Dongfang Yuejian was first stunned, and then said in great surprise：
　　“Daoist Taiping, you, you, you couldn’t be, couldn’t be refining the secret realm behind this white bodhi tree？！”
　　Dongfang Yuejian also knew about the cave heaven within the Golden Court.
　　So when she saw Xu Taiping’s actions at this moment, the words “refining the secret realm” immediately emerged in her mind.
　　Xu Taiping, who had originally been thinking about how to explain this to the two of them, was extremely surprised in his heart after hearing this and said, “This Miss Dongfang is truly erudite. She actually saw at a glance that I was refining a secret realm.”
　　In an instant, he suddenly felt that bringing this Dongfang Yuejian on this trip might be a good decision.
　　Then, he nodded and said：
　　”Miss Dongfang, you’re not wrong. I indeed want to refine the secret realm behind this White Bodhi Tree.”
　　Regarding the matter of refining this secret realm, it was actually the idea of the Green Pupil Evil Monarch Li Daoyan.
　　When they parted ways in the Scroll of Time, the Green Pupil Evil Monarch gave him three great gifts, one of which was this method of refining a secret realm.
　　After all, one of the things that was most widely circulated about the Green Pupil Evil Monarch back then was that he refined a secret realm in the Dry Stone Sea.
　　After getting Xu Taiping’s confirmation, Dongfang Yuejian looked at Xu Taiping in great surprise and said：
　　”I didn’t expect that there is really a way to refine the secret realm of the Dry Stone Sea in this world.”
The Mysterious Knowledge Monk beside him was a little puzzled and said:
“Miss Dongfang, it doesn’t say that only after a cultivator breaks through to the Harmony with the Dao Realm and to win a semi-immortal seat can they refine a secret realm?
　　Dongfang Yuejian shook her head and said：
　　”Master Mysterious Knowledge, you don’t know.”
　　As she spoke, she looked up at the broken sky curtain of this Jinting Mansion, and then continued：
　　“The thirty-six secret realms in the Dead Stone Sea are different from the secret realms nurtured by the ordinary world. They were originally refined by the Dragon Clan with thirty-six precious pearls.”
　　“Also known as the pearls left in the sea.”
　　“These thirty-six secret realms seem to claim to be independent worlds, but in essence, they are just one treasure.”
　　“However, after the extinction of the Dragon Clan, these thirty-six precious pearls became ownerless.”
　　“And because the method of refining was lost, they have been placed in the Dead Stone Sea and no one has taken them away.”
　　When saying this, Dongfang Yuejian’s eyes once again looked at Xu Taiping, and then asked：
　　“Daoist Taiping, I heard that when you were in the Jinting Inner Cave Heaven before, you joined hands with the Green Pupil Evil Monarch Li Daoyan to fight against that Yuanzhu. Could it be that the method you used to refine this secret realm of the Dead Stone Sea was obtained from the Green Pupil Evil Monarch？”
　　It has to be said that Dongfang Yue has grown a lot compared to when Xu Taiping first met her.
　　Her mind is delicate and meticulous, and sometimes she is no worse than some “old monsters”.
　　It seems that the experiences of these years have not made her suffer less.
　　Xu Taiping immediately nodded and said：
　　“That’s right, it was indeed passed down from Senior Li Daoyan.”
　　Upon hearing this, Dongfang Yuejian immediately let out a sigh of relief and said：
　　“Then　I’m　relieved.”
　　After seeing the confused look in Xu Taiping’s eyes, she immediately explained again：
　　“It is said that when refining these thirty-six pearls, if the method is not correct, it is very likely to be severely injured by the backlash of the secret realm.”
　　And what Dongfang Yuejian said, Xu Taiping also felt at this moment.
　　Because when he was refining the cave within the Jinting Mansion according to the method left by Li Daoyan, he could clearly feel that there was an invisible force trying to enter his body and tear his body apart.
　　But every time this force appeared, as long as he circulated his true essence and qi and blood according to the method left by Li Daoyan, this force would be resolved.
　　After the refining process lasted for almost ten full hours, Xu Taiping finally let out a long sigh of relief and said, “It’s done.”
　　Immediately, in the surprised and delighted eyes of Dongfang Yuejian and Master Xuanzhi, the white bodhi tree had already turned into a white bead in Xu Taiping’s palm.
And within this white bead, a white bodhi tree could be faintly seen growing inside.
　　Dongfang Yuejian stared at the white pearl in Xu Taiping’s palm, and said with a curious face：
The dragon in ancient times were really powerful. They could actually hide a piece of heaven and earth in this small clam pearl.”
　　Seeing that she was so curious, Xu Taiping simply handed the clam pearl to her hand and then said lightly：
　　“If Miss Dongfang is interested, she can study it slowly.”
　　Dongfang Yuejian was not polite either, but said with a look of surprise：
　　”Thank you, Daoist Taiping！”
　　Xu Taiping waved his hand and said：
　　”There’s no need to be so polite.”
　　As he spoke, he had already taken out the Kunlong Pagoda from the Inner Cave of the Golden Court.
　　Previously, because he was worried that he wouldn’t be able to return to the Inner Cave of the Golden Court, he had always kept the Kunlong Pagoda there. Even when he was sneak-attacked by Luo Hong of the Three Corpse Cave, he endured and didn’t take it out.
　　At this time, Master Xuanzhi walked to the side of Xu Taiping and said：
　　”Brother Taiping, the entrance in the Dry Sea that leads to the Barbarian Wilderness is under the Fulu Slope outside the Old Dragon Court.”
　　”There is no sandstorm only on the first day or the fifteenth day of each month when the moon is full. If we want to go to the Barbarian Wilderness as soon as possible, we should set off now.”
