Chapter 249: Eye of Fortune

Upon hearing this, Wu Li was stunned where he stood. He had not expected that despite saying the name Li Feiyu so many times, no one else had noticed, yet this girl he was meeting for the first time had seen through it?

This inevitably made Wu Li suspicious. He proceeded to use several more fake names, but without exception, the other party saw through them all.

Seeing this, Wu Li could only sigh.

"You certainly have some skill, Miss. Since that is the case, I will no longer hide it. I shall not change my name or surname: I am Wu Li."

Hearing this, Nangong Wan finally nodded.

"Not bad, that is your name after all."

Just then, a spatial vibration came from the distance, causing both Wu Li and Nangong Wan to look toward the entrance of the Azure Lightning Secret Realm.

They saw the spatial Dao chains above the Azure Lightning Secret Realm completely dissipate, and the surrounding Cultivators, seeing this, swarmed into the Azure Lightning Secret Realm in a rush.

Wu Li and Nangong Wan exchanged a glance and, without any hesitation, charged directly toward the Azure Lightning Secret Realm.

"Fellow Daoist Wu, take my hand. The Azure Lightning Secret Realm is a random teleportation Secret Realm. If we enter separately, we will be sent to different areas."

Nangong Wan turned to say to Wu Li.

Hearing this, Wu Li nodded and immediately grabbed Nangong Wan's hand. At the moment of contact, Wu Li could very clearly feel her body tremble, but now was not the time to worry about that.

As Nangong Wan and Wu Li entered the Azure Lightning Secret Realm, the next second, both were teleported into the depths of the Azure Lightning Secret Realm.

Outside, Wu Hao also appeared, his expression looking somewhat solemn as he watched Nangong Wan's back.

"Did I see wrong? But I rarely misjudge things. This woman is extraordinary."

From the moment Nangong Wan and Wu Li made contact, Wu Hao had sensed it and rushed over, but he did not speak to stop them. He could tell that Nangong Wan harbored no malice toward Wu Li, so there was no need to intervene.

Although Wu Hao could enter the Azure Lightning Secret Realm at will, there was no need to do so, so after Nangong Wan and Wu Li disappeared, Wu Hao also left.

Meanwhile, inside the Azure Lightning Secret Realm, Wu Li and Nangong Wan entered one after another.

"Is this the Azure Lightning Secret Realm? It is indeed extraordinary."

Feeling the faint aura of thunder permeating the air, Wu Li's expression became extremely solemn. The sky of the Azure Lightning Secret Realm was a gray, hazy scene, with bolts of lightning up to half a kilometer in diameter erupting from time to time, looking extremely terrifying.

"Correct. That is precisely why the Azure Lightning Secret Realm is called the Azure Lightning Secret Realm. Especially for Immortals who Cultivate thunder-type Cultivation Techniques or Immortal arts, merely entering the Azure Lightning Secret Realm can be considered a great Opportunity."

Nangong Wan, who was beside him, chimed in as well.

Wu Li nodded, but the next second, Nangong Wan continued.

"So, Fellow Daoist Wu, can you let go of my hand now?"

Wu Li only then realized what was happening. He coughed, let go of Nangong Wan's hand, and said somewhat embarrassedly.

"Apologies, Fellow Daoist Nangong, I forgot for a moment."

After releasing Nangong Wan's hand, Wu Li noticed that her cheeks were flushed, but they returned to normal in an instant, making Wu Li doubt if he had seen correctly at all.

Shaking his head to cast the thought from his mind, Wu Li spoke up.

"Alright, Fellow Daoist Nangong, it is time to take out your map now, right?"

Hearing this, Nangong Wan nodded and extended her hand. The next second, an extremely ancient-looking map slowly emerged from her palm.

Feeling the aura on it, just as Wu Li was about to ask, Nangong Wan spoke up proactively.

"I obtained this map by chance. I have confirmed that it is indeed a map of the Azure Lightning Secret Realm."

As she spoke, Nangong Wan opened the map. After opening it, a small red dot could be seen in the lower-left corner of the map, clearly marking their current location.

"According to the map, there are quite a few places worth visiting in the entire Azure Lightning Secret Realm."

Nangong Wan looked at the contents of the Azure Lightning Secret Realm, her expression serious.

Wu Li remained silent, staring at the map to search for areas where the gold lightning wood he needed might appear, and he found it very quickly.

"Since that is the case, let us go here first."

Wu Li pointed to the north of the map and looked at Nangong Wan to ask.

Nangong Wan naturally had no objections to Wu Li's suggestion and nodded in agreement.

This surprised Wu Li, and he couldn't help but ask.

"Are you not afraid that I might take you to a very dangerous place?"

"No, you won't. I can tell."

Nangong Wan looked at Wu Li, a golden light flashing through her eyes, and said with great firmness.

Hearing this, Wu Li found it difficult to say anything more. He turned and flew toward the north, and seeing this, Nangong Wan followed at a leisurely pace.

After all, she was a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, while Wu Li was at the Golden Immortal Initial Stage; catching up to Wu Li was not difficult.

Nangong Wan had a secret in her heart regarding her eyes: she could see other people's Luck.

When Nangong Wan began to Cultivate at the age of eight, her eyes could perceive the Luck of other things, ranging from low to high: black, white, green, blue, orange, red, purple, gold, and five-colored.

Nangong Wan had once seen a Grand Unity Golden Immortal Cultivator with black Luck die at the hands of an old enemy within three days, and she had also seen a Mortal with originally white Luck whose Luck increased from white to orange after obtaining a purple supreme treasure, thereby stepping onto the path of Immortality and achieving Ascension.

Regarding her eyes, Nangong Wan had never found any information in any historical records, so she eventually named them the Eye of Fortune.

Relying on the Eye of Fortune, Nangong Wan's own Luck had upgraded from its original green to red within a mere ten thousand years, and she had also achieved a Breakthrough to Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

Obtaining the map of the Azure Lightning Secret Realm was precisely because of the help of the Eye of Fortune, which allowed Nangong Wan to see the value of this map. As for discovering Wu Li, it was truly an unexpected joy.

This was the first time Nangong Wan had seen someone whose Luck reached the five-colored level; that terrifying radiance almost blinded her.

Therefore, after recovering, Nangong Wan knew that she absolutely had to befriend Wu Li, because her own Luck was only red, and being able to Cultivate to Grand Unity Golden Immortal in such a short time was already quite good.

If she could ascend to purple, or even gold, perhaps becoming an Immortal Emperor would not be a difficult task.

Nangong Wan's ambition was not great; she would be satisfied just becoming an Immortal Emperor. As for anything beyond an Immortal Emperor, that was not something she needed to consider right now.
