"I heard that this secret realm was discovered by Gong Zhongkang."

"If it weren't for the leakage of energy that my Divine Sword Sect sensed, this secret realm would probably have been monopolized by the Blood Fiend Sect!"

Xia Anyu's beautiful eyes flashed with anger, even though she was only at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

However, he was not afraid at all when facing Gong Zhongkang, who was in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

Gong Zhongkang's eyes flashed red as he warily watched Xia Anyu.

The pressure emanating from this junior in the early Nascent Soul stage was no less than that from those in the middle or late Nascent Soul stages.

The tension between the two sides grew increasingly high, to the point where they were practically ready to fight on the spot.

And at that very moment.

There was a loud hum!

The void before everyone's eyes began to tremble.

Immediately afterwards, several golden divine lights burst forth, breaking through the void and forming a brilliant golden void portal!

Strange inscriptions appeared, and surging spiritual power burst forth from the portal, violently sweeping across the entire valley.

The sudden change disrupted the stalemate between the two sides.

"Cough cough cough," Gong Zhongkang coughed a few times and said to Xia Anyu, "The flaw in the Heavenly Secrets Formation only exists for ten breaths."

"If you're willing to drag this out, I'll play along!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Anyu concealed the coldness in her eyes and nodded, signaling the Divine Sword Sect disciples behind her to enter the great formation.

Immediately, numerous disciples of the Divine Sword Sect, led by several true disciples including Leng Chen, Xu Xinrou, and Bai Gaoyang, rushed towards the entrance of the valley.

On the other side, the Blood Fiend Sect disciples were not idle either. Led by Hong Lifu and Kou Yin, they rushed towards the valley first.

Ten breaths later, the golden light vanished instantly.

Only Xia Anyu and Gong Zhongkang remained in the open space.
