I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong

"In our Goddess Sect, many have practiced the Great Thousand Skill to the Divine Skill level, so you have nothing to be proud of."

Mei Xianfu admired him in her heart, but refused to openly praise Tian Lin.

One should know, she used to belittle Tian Lin quite often. Now, to change her tune and praise Tian Lin was even harder than killing her.

"I truly have nothing to be proud of! However, witnessing Miss Mei break through the Golden Core Realm is truly delightful and congratulatory."

Tian Lin's congratulations were sincere.

Mei Xianfu's breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm was highly beneficial to him; besides ensuring his safety, she could also help him obtain the Divine Maiden Fruit.

Tian Lin entered the secret realm this time primarily to acquire the Divine Maiden Fruit.

"It's just the Golden Core; it's no harder for you to break through than it was for me."

Mei Xianfu said arrogantly, then looked around, frowning: "What have you been doing in this wooden hut while I cultivated?"

The wooden hut now looked vastly different from when she had started her meditation.

Before her meditation, though the wooden hut was old, the ground was flat and smooth.

Now, as she woke from meditation, the wooden hut was intact, but the ground seemed to have been plowed through completely.

Tian Lin explained helplessly: "It's all the Divine Lady Tree's mischief. I wanted to absorb it into my body, but it rooted underground and refused to leave, resulting in the damage to the ground due to the struggle."

"This too is because you advanced too quickly!"

Mei Xianfu said: "In the past, our Goddess Sect members would slowly advance under the Divine Lady Tree by learning from each other while practicing the Great Thousand Skill.

You advanced too quickly and spent too little time with the Divine Lady Tree, so you cannot yet control it as you please."

After saying this, Mei Xianfu raised her hand and instantly restored the turned soil, burying all of the exposed earth back underground.

This display of Divine Skills greatly impressed Tian Lin, who asked: "What is this Divine Skill?"

"It's not a Divine Skill; it's a technique in my practice of the 'Earth' way. Once you've reached the Golden Core Realm, you no longer need to practice Divine Skills. Every move is a form of Divine Skill!"

Mei Xianfu said arrogantly, then raised her hand to remove the arrays she had set, retrieving the engraving array stones she had buried earlier.

While she was busy collecting the engraving array stones, Tian Lin's eyes were drawn to the leather paper half-buried in the ground.

He approached the leather paper and pulled it out from the ground.

The leather paper was somewhat damp but had no signs of insect damage, so it was relatively intact.

Mei Xianfu noticed Tian Lin's actions as well, and she approached him to look at the leather paper, saying: "Is this an inventory from long ago left here by someone?"

Tian Lin nodded and said: "It seems to be an inventory list from a Hua Hualang team during a supply check. This list includes not only the supplies but also the names of their owners."

"Rascals, old men, third leader, fourth leader, second leader, official? What nonsense names are these."

Mei Xianfu glanced briefly at the supply list and lost interest.

When she looked away, she heard Tian Lin say: "In that world, I and Listening Rain True Person were referred to as rascal and old man."

Only then did Mei Xianfu show interest, looking at Tian Lin and asking: "So this inventory list was left by your Hua Hualang team?"

Tian Lin shook his head and said: "Back then, people typically didn't leave their real names, so names like rascal and old man were common; they are mere nicknames.

Other than the name of the official, which I have not seen in other Hua Hualang teams, the other nicknames are overlapping across all Hua Hualang teams, so we cannot confirm that this is our Hua Hualang team's supply list."

Tian Lin continued: "Moreover, this is a secret realm, so why would the Hua Hualang team's inventory list appear here?"

Mei Xianfu made no comments and only asked Tian Lin: "What do you plan to do next?"

She entered the secret realm with the goal of breaking through Golden Core cultivation.

Now that her Golden Core cultivation has broken through, she is not in a hurry to further refine the Divine Lady Tree.

"I want to continue exploring to see if the villages below resemble what I experienced in the Heavenly Gate realm!"

"That works! If we encounter decomposing meat of the Day Patrol Deity level, we can consider this journey a complete success."

After Mei Xianfu spoke, she waited for Tian Lin to remove the array he had set and collect all the engraving array stones before they left this location in Beixi Village.

With her Golden Core cultivation, Mei Xianfu no longer acted as cautiously.

She rose into the air ahead of Tian Lin, observing the surroundings from above. Landing, she gestured toward a distant location and said: "Several miles south, there's another village, let's go there directly!"

Although they were nominally master and servant, Mei Xianfu's cultivation surpassed Tian Lin, and Mei Xianfu never considered herself as just a sword holder.

Hence, Tian Lin had no objection, following Mei Xianfu in the direction she pointed, towards the distant mountain.

But as they reached the mountain peak, they paused, for countless vines resembling thousands of long snakes reached out towards them in an attempt to entangle them.

Mei Xianfu sneered, grasping a handful of petals in her right hand. These petals were transformed by True Qi but held damaging power comparable to ordinary Magical Treasures.

With a move called 'Heavenly Maiden Scattering Flowers', she hurled countless petals at the attacking vines, followed by the sound of explosions.

Numerous vines broke apart midair, and those that retracted burned with unextinguishable flames.

These flames could not be put out, so as the vines pulled back, they carried the fire into the forest, setting the entire woods ablaze.

"So many Demon Trees, but unfortunately their quality is too low to enhance my Divine Lady Tree."

Indifferent to 'setting the mountain ablaze,' Mei Xianfu led Tian Lin directly over Demon Mountain to Nanxi Village.

Nanxi Village sits south while Beixi Village is in the north, and under the glow of the flames, Nanxi Village glowed red throughout.

Upon reaching the village entrance, whispered conversations emerged from within.

Mei Xianfu did not enter the huts but instead directly planted the Divine Lady Tree in the threshing ground at the village center.

The Divine Lady Tree, upon landing, quickly grew into a towering tree of seven or eight zhang high.

The towering tree sprouted roots as thick as barrels, lifting houses effortlessly.

Countless pieces of decomposing meat were instantly consumed by the roots of the Divine Lady Tree, which then sprouted leaves with a cold fragrance.

The cold fragrance leaves emitted a scent, possibly because the Divine Lady Tree imbibed too much decomposing meat. Some cold fragrance leaves fell from the tree beautifully.

Meanwhile, Tian Lin saw Mei Xianfu soar into the air, passing through the drifting cold fragrance leaves, weaving between the branches several times before landing in front of Tian Lin.

By this time, she held three fairly small fruits midair, which were, in fact, the Divine Maiden Fruits produced by the Divine Lady Tree.

"In this village, there were two decomposing meats of the Day Patrol Deity level— the excess Divine Maiden Fruits are because the Divine Lady Tree absorbed so much meat that it bore them itself. You gave me two Dao Seeds to help me advance to the Golden Core Realm, so now I return you twenty Divine Maiden Fruits."

Divine Maiden Fruits are rare, and Mei Xianfu's method of exchanging didn't actually exploit Tian Lin.

After all, Mei Xianfu also needed Divine Maiden Fruits critically to enhance the quality of her Divine Soul.
