As this fluctuation occurred, all the demons left the inn.

Many demons stared at the water barrier that had appeared out of nowhere in the distance.

Many demons knew that behind that barrier lay the Demon Emperor's secret treasure, which they had long coveted.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Bai Ze, who had concealed his identity, walked out directly.

He took out the key he had obtained at the auction and brought the jade-like key close to the water barrier in front of him.

The jade pendant merged directly into the water barrier and began to tremble violently.

Bai Ze gently extended his finger and pointed.

The water barrier, which was originally designed to cause damage upon contact, instantly solidified and shattered.

An extremely powerful spiritual energy wafted in, instantly energizing all the great demons guarding outside, who couldn't wait to rush in.

However, not a single powerful demon dared to make a move.

Many demons knew that after that mysterious great demon took the key to the Demon Emperor's secret treasure, several powerful demons of considerable strength chased after him.

But all those great demons disappeared.

Today, this mysterious demon has reappeared and produced the key in public, which is enough to prove that all the demons who went to attack him have died at his hands.

This mysterious demon's power should not be underestimated.

Bai Ze naturally sensed the fear that the surrounding demons had towards him.

Perhaps it wasn't just fear of themselves, but also fear of the secret realm before them, as they didn't know what risks lay within it.

After all, the Demon Emperor has been dead for so many years.

This secret realm is a small, independent space. If there are any ancient demons remnants inside, they might be in some danger.

Bai Ze didn't care what other demons thought of him; all he wanted was for everyone to respect him.

Just before entering the secret realm, he still glanced at Xiao Feng.

Just as Bai Ze was about to step into the secret realm, his finger twitched slightly.

A white dot of light, noticed only by Wu Qi, silently landed on the back of Xiao Feng's hand.

Xiao Feng was completely unaware.

Noticing that Wu Qi had turned to look at him, Xiao Feng asked with a puzzled expression, "Senior Wu Qi, is there something wrong with me?"

Wu Qi shook his head and led Xiao Feng directly into the secret realm.

The demons naturally knew Wu Qi's identity. Seeing that Wu Qi had already entered, the other demons no longer hesitated and rushed into the secret realm.

That's an opportunity to ascend to immortality. Even if you can't ascend, you can at least increase your strength. Such a tremendous opportunity is something every demon race would want.

To the surprise of the many demons, after they all rushed into the secret realm, the formation inside randomly teleported them to a different location.

Xiao Feng was very unlucky.

He originally thought that he could stay by Wu Qi's side without worrying about anything, and just see what good things were in the secret realm belonging to the Demon Emperor.

But the moment he entered the secret realm, he sensed the effect of the formation.

He instinctively tried to grab Wu Qi, but it was too late.

The formation activated instantly, and he was thrown into some unknown corner of the secret realm.

The moment Xiao Feng landed, he sensed the impending danger.

Xiao Feng quickly bent down, then opened his eyes. A monster resembling a rhinoceros was right above Xiao Feng's head.

It had just tried to ambush Xiao Feng with its sharp horns, but Xiao Feng crouched down in the process, and its horns pierced directly into the tree trunk behind Xiao Feng.

He killed a poisonous snake that was trying to ambush Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng never expected that his start would be so hellish, with two demonic beasts launching a sneak attack right from the beginning.

Fortunately, Xiao Feng's intuition saved him.

While the rhinoceros monster was unable to pull its horn out of the tree trunk.

Xiao Feng quickly dodged his opponent.

After assessing whether there were any other demonic beasts around, Xiao Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

There are only these two monsters here.

The venomous snake was already dead.

Xiao Feng did not take advantage of the fact that the remaining demon beast was unable to resist him and kill it directly.

Xiao Feng is trying to communicate with it.

"Where is this place?" Xiao Feng asked the rhinoceros demon beast.

The rhinoceros beast shook its body desperately, and even though its single horn was stuck in the tree trunk, it still roared at Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng thought he had gotten too close to it and annoyed it, so he deliberately kept some distance before asking.

What they got in return was the roar of the rhinoceros monster.

Xiao Feng felt something was strange. After releasing his divine sense to sense them, he finally discovered that these demonic beasts were not the same as the ones he had encountered before.

The demons or monsters he encountered before had mostly developed their own intelligence, and he rarely encountered monsters that were dominated by slaughter and brutality.

But the rhinoceros monster in front of them was different.

It couldn't understand what Xiao Feng was saying; all it could see was brutal killing and bloody coldness.

Xiao Feng sighed.

This rhinoceros demon beast is quite powerful; if even it is like this, it seems there's a problem in the Demon Emperor's Secret Realm.

Xiao Feng only hoped that the unique features of this secret realm would only apply to the original demon beasts living in the secret realm, and not to the demon races that entered later.

Otherwise, if those powerful demons were to unleash their power, the entire Demon Emperor's Secret Realm would likely be plunged into chaos and destruction.

Since he couldn't communicate with the monster in front of him, Xiao Feng simply killed it and obtained its demon core, which he then began to study carefully.

"Just as I guessed, the demon cores of these demonic beasts should be similar to the golden cores of humans. Except for some special demonic beasts, their power should be peaceful."

"But the demonic power here is extremely violent, clearly indicating that it has been corrupted and has some impurities that it shouldn't have."

That monster, which looked similar to a rhinoceros, should have had a very peaceful nature.

As long as human cultivators do not disturb their rest, they will not attack human cultivators.

But the other party was clearly different from the ones Xiao Feng had met before.

The spiritual energy in the secret realm is so rich, could it be because there are some things mixed in that can make people or monsters go berserk?

Unable to analyze it himself, Xiao Feng simply threw the demon core directly into the system space, letting the system analyze it for him.

Xiao Feng also transmitted his consciousness into the system space, allowing Zhao Yuwei and Zhao Yun to stay there with peace of mind.

The situation in the Demon Emperor's Secret Realm was different from what he had imagined.

He cannot release the two of them until he is certain that it is absolutely safe or that he has a way to resolve the situation.

After comforting Zhao Yuwei and Zhao Yun, Xiao Feng embarked on his journey to explore the secret realm.

Along the way, Xiao Feng naturally encountered many other ferocious monsters, just like the rhinoceros monster he had encountered before.

Xiao Feng's strength was so great that these demonic beasts, once they fell into his hands, would only be killed and have their demon cores taken by him.

Their flesh is also full of those factors that can make people violent, so Xiao Feng can't cook them.
