Balala the Magic Fairy

Yan Lili and Zhan Tianjiao were traveling rapidly through the depths of the forest. They had been traveling for a long time, but it seemed as if endless energy was flowing through their bodies, and they did not show any signs of fatigue. Since absorbing the power of the Seven-Colored Fairy Orchid, their cultivation had greatly improved, and their bodies had become stronger and more powerful.

"Lily, did you feel it?" Zhan Tianjiao suddenly stopped, listened attentively, and looked solemn.

Yan Lili also stopped immediately, she closed her eyes and felt the movements around her with her whole body and mind. She keenly sensed a familiar breath floating not far away, it was a warm feeling that instantly made her heart tremble.

"Yes, I felt it." Yan Lili opened her eyes, a gleam of surprise flashing across her eyes, "That is... the breath of Sister Huan."

"Sister Huan?" Zhan Tianjiao also showed surprise in his eyes, "She is your friend?"

"Yes, she was my best friend when I was in the underworld... We have to go and see her quickly." Yan Lili's tone was urgent, and her concern for Zhen Huan was evident in her words.

The two of them ran towards the source of the aura with great speed. As the distance between them shortened, the aura became clearer and stronger. Yan Lili's heartbeat became faster and faster, and her inner anticipation and excitement surged like a tide.

Finally, they came to an open meadow. In the middle of the meadow, a familiar figure was sitting quietly, with a guqin placed beside her. The melodious sound of the guqin flowed in the air like water, soft and pleasant to the ear.

"Sister!" Yan Lili couldn't suppress her inner joy. She shouted loudly and ran over like a happy bird.

Zhen Huan heard this familiar voice and slowly raised her head. A look of astonishment first appeared on her face, and then turned into a happy smile: "Lily, why are you here?"

"I..." Yan Lili was about to answer, but her eyes were suddenly attracted by Zhen Huan's guqin. A trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, "How did your guqin... become like this?"

Zhen Huan's guqin, originally plain and unadorned, was now covered with strange runes and emitted a faint and mysterious light, obviously no longer an extraordinary piece.

"This is..." A complex emotion flashed in Zhen Huan's eyes, "This was given to me by a senior. He said that this zither would help me practice."

"Senior?" Yan Lili's eyes were filled with curiosity. "What kind of senior is that?"

Zhen Huan was about to answer, but Zhan Tianjiao suddenly interrupted, "Lily, this place is deep in the forest, and there are dangers everywhere. We should find a safe place first and then talk in detail."

Yan Lili nodded slightly, knowing that what Zhan Tianjiao said made sense. The three of them packed up and headed towards the edge of the forest.

They came to a clear stream, the water was gurgling, and there were exotic flowers and plants beside the stream. The three of them found a flat place by the stream and sat down, and began to talk freely.

"Lily, how did you get here? And who is this person?" Zhen Huan asked curiously.

Yan Lili introduced Zhan Tianjiao to Zhen Huan, and told her all their experiences, from absorbing the power of the Seven-Colored Fairy Orchid to the fierce battle with the Dark Gold Dragon Claw Tiger, every detail.

Zhen Huan listened attentively, with surprise and admiration flashing in her eyes from time to time: "Lili, you are really becoming more and more powerful."

Yan Lili smiled brightly, her eyes falling on Zhen Huan's guqin again: "Sister, you haven't told me who that senior is yet."

Zhen Huan's eyes flashed with hesitation, but she finally said: "That senior... is the Qin Demon."

"The Demon of the Zither?" Yan Lili and Zhan Tianjiao exclaimed in unison, their eyes full of shock.

Qin Mo is a very mysterious figure in the Red Mansion Fairyland. His Qin skills are superb and he is said to have reached the extraordinary realm of using Qin to achieve enlightenment. However, he is aloof and few people can see his true appearance.

The sound of the zither echoed in the forest, just like the clear stream in the mountains, and like the gentle night breeze blowing through the treetops. Zhen Huan sat by the stream, her jade fingers gently touching the strings of the zither, and every note seemed to carry her thousands of thoughts, floating slowly into the hearts of Yan Lili and Zhan Tianjiao.

"This piano sound..." Yan Lili gently closed her eyes, immersed in the artistic conception created by the piano sound. She could truly feel that Zhen Huan's piano skills were more advanced than before, and every note seemed to reach the depths of her soul.

Zhan Tianjiao also listened quietly, his face full of admiration: "The power contained in this piano music seems to echo with the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, making people intoxicated."

Zhen Huan smiled slightly, with a hint of pride in her eyes: "This zither was given to me by Senior Zither Demon. He once said that the sound of the zither can communicate with heaven and earth, harmonize yin and yang, and is a wonderful way to cultivate the state of mind."

Yan Lili nodded slightly, and became more and more curious about Qin Mo's origins: "Why would this Qin Mo senior give you such a precious magic weapon?"

Zhen Huan's eyes became deep and far-reaching, and she said softly: "He once said that the sound of the zither needs to be passed on by someone with a heart, and my character is quite compatible with his. He hopes that I can inherit his legacy and carry forward the art of the zither."

Zhan Tianjiao nodded thoughtfully: "Senior Qin Mo has a unique vision. Zhen Huan, your piano skills are indeed extraordinary."

The three of them chatted by the stream until the sun set and the clouds in the sky were dyed a gorgeous golden red. Zhen Huan's piano music also gradually died down with the afterglow of the sunset.

"Lily, Tianjiao, what are your plans next?" Zhen Huan put away the guqin, her eyes full of anticipation.

Yan Lili thought for a moment and said, "We plan to continue exploring this forest and look for more opportunities."

Zhen Huan nodded in agreement: "I also hope to find an opportunity to improve my piano skills here."

Zhan Tianjiao stood up and looked firmly into the depths of the forest: "There are many secrets hidden in this forest. Perhaps we can find some key clues from it."

Yan Lili also stood up and tightly grasped the Chaos Sword. The sword made a crisp sound, as if responding to her determination: "We are ready. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, we will move forward."

The three of them walked side by side, their steps firm and powerful, leaving deep footprints on the ground with every step. They passed through the dense jungle, crossed the clear stream, and finally arrived at a mysterious valley.

In the valley, a light mist permeates, and the surrounding mountain walls are covered with moss and vines, creating a quiet and mysterious atmosphere. In the center of the valley, there is a clear lake like a mirror. The lake water is quiet and reflects the clouds in the sky and the surrounding mountains.

"Here..." Yan Lili looked around and clearly felt that the spiritual energy here was much richer than other places, as if there was an invisible attraction pulling her.

Zhan Tianjiao also showed surprise in his eyes: "The spiritual energy here is extremely abundant, it must be hiding some unknown secrets."

Zhen Huan walked to the lakeside and gently touched the water with her jade finger. The lake immediately rippled: "This lake water... seems to contain a special power."

Yan Lili and Zhan Tianjiao also came to the lake and truly felt the pure spiritual energy in the lake. Yan Lili took a deep breath and suddenly felt a strong desire in her heart, eager to practice here and absorb the spiritual energy here.

"Let's practice here." Yan Lili suggested.

Zhan Tianjiao and Zhen Huan nodded, both thinking that this was a great place to practice. The three of them sat cross-legged by the lake and began to circulate their spiritual energy.

As they practiced, the spiritual energy around them began to slowly gather, forming visible air currents that swirled around them. Yan Lili's Chaos Sword glowed with a faint light, and the runes on the sword flickered, as if greedily absorbing the spiritual energy around it.

Zhan Tianjiao's body also radiated a soft light, his strength continued to grow, and his mind became more calm and resolute. Zhen Huan's guqin was suspended in the air, and the runes on the guqin were shining, resonating with the surrounding spiritual energy, and making a subtle humming sound.

Time passed quietly, and the three of them were immersed in their cultivation, completely forgetting themselves. Their cultivation was constantly improving, and their bodies were like dry land, absorbing the nourishment of spiritual energy to their heart's content.

Yan Lili felt that every cell in her body was jumping for joy, and every flow of spiritual energy made her experience unprecedented fulfillment and power.

Zhan Tianjiao is also undergoing a transformation, his strength is growing, and his mind is becoming more calm and resolute. Zhen Huan's piano skills are constantly improving, and the sound she plays is becoming more melodious and graceful, full of spiritual beauty.

As time went by, the auras of the three people gradually merged with the spiritual energy of the valley, as if they had become a part of the valley. Their bodies became stronger and stronger under the nourishment of the spiritual energy, and their minds became purer and clearer.

Finally, when the bright moonlight filled the valley, the three slowly opened their eyes. Their eyes were shining with light like bright stars, and their cultivation had improved significantly.

"Lily, do you feel it?" Zhan Tianjiao's voice sounded particularly gentle under the watery moonlight.

Yan Lili nodded. She could clearly feel the power in her body surging like a raging river. "I feel it. This power... is stronger than I could imagine."

Zhen Huan showed a satisfied smile: "The spiritual energy here is really helpful for cultivation."

The moonlight sprinkled like silver yarn in the quiet valley, and the lake sparkled like thousands of stars falling into the mortal world. Yan Lili, Zhan Tianjiao and Zhen Huan sat cross-legged by the lake, surrounded by spiritual energy, like three ancient gods, bathing in this mysterious spiritual light.

Although Zhen Huan's zither music has stopped, a more magnificent movement is quietly playing in her heart. Her heart gradually merges and sublimates with the teachings of the Qin Demon, the spiritual energy in the valley, and the runes on the zither.

An unprecedented power was quietly surging in her body. It was the threshold to the supreme realm, the realm that countless practitioners dreamed of. Her mind was immersed in the resonance of the piano music and spiritual energy, and her soul seemed to be purified and sublimated at this moment.

Zhan Tianjiao and Yan Lili also keenly noticed the changes in Zhen Huan. They stopped practicing, their eyes full of surprise and expectation, and they quietly guarded by her side.

Time seemed to freeze, and only the energy in Zhen Huan's body continued to accumulate and expand. Her skin began to emit a faint glow, which became more and more dazzling, until finally, she was like a bright moon, illuminating the entire valley.

"boom!"

A loud bang exploded in Zhen Huan's body. Her cultivation had made a breakthrough at this moment and she successfully entered the Supreme Realm. Her body slowly floated in the air, and the spiritual energy around her formed a huge vortex, spinning rapidly around her.

"Lily, Tianjiao, I succeeded!" Zhen Huan's voice was filled with irrepressible excitement and joy.

Yan Lili and Zhan Tianjiao smiled at each other, their eyes full of blessings and relief.

"Congratulations, sister." Yan Lili stood up, walked quickly to Zhen Huan's side, and gently held her hand.

"Your piano skills and cultivation have made a qualitative leap, which is truly cause for celebration." Zhan Tianjiao also walked forward with a sincere smile on his face.

Just as the three of them were immersed in the joy of their breakthrough, a brilliant stream of light streaked across the night sky, like a bright meteor, falling into the valley. The light dissipated, and a middle-aged man in a green robe appeared in front of them.

"My three friends, I am the envoy of the Great Qing Sect. I have come here on the orders of the Sect Master to invite you to join our sect." The middle-aged man's voice was gentle but powerful. His eyes swept over the three people one by one, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Yan Lili and Zhan Tianjiao looked at each other, with a complicated look in their eyes. After all, they had just fought with Nian Shilan of the Great Qing Sect not long ago.

Zhen Huan frowned slightly. She had never been interested in the affairs of the sect and longed for a free and easy life of cultivation.
