Chapter 457 Ancient Behemoth

Qiao Qingyu and the others from Feixing Academy instantly widened their eyes, "Senior Brother..."

Qiu Ye's voice echoed in the empty valley. Luo Li's eyes were as calm as autumn water. She waited quietly for his next words.

Qiu Ye took a deep breath, as if making up his mind. He looked up at Luo Li, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes. "I believe Miss Luo Li has also noticed the difference in this secret realm. Besides, forming an alliance will only benefit both of us, not harm us."

He looked at Luo Li and said, "We'll split the points 50-50."

Luo Li crossed her arms and curled her lips, but did not speak.

Bei Mingyu on the side chuckled, "Fifty-fifty? Perhaps you don't know that if you join our team, I'm afraid you won't be of much help to us."

Yue Hanchuan's face was indifferent, holding the beloved long sword given to him by Luo Li, "But we can also form an alliance, 30% and 70% respectively, 7 for us and 3 for you."

Qiu Ye's face froze, and he gritted his teeth and said, "30% to 70% is a bit too..."

He looked at Yue Hanchuan, "How about 46 points, Miss Luo Li, this is our bottom line."

Luo Li raised an eyebrow, "Why do you want to cooperate with us? If you want to cooperate, Skjaer Imperial College and Zesili Imperial College should be better choices than our Tianyuan College."

Yue Hanchuan smiled slightly, but there was no warmth in that smile. He gently stroked the blade of the long sword in his hand. The sword seemed to sense the owner's emotions and trembled slightly.

He looked up at Qiu Ye, his eyes as cold as a star. "Yes, as far as I know, in the last college competition, your Feixing College formed an alliance with the Zesili Empire College and ended up taking third place, am I remembering correctly?"

Akino gave a bitter laugh. "Indeed, but there's a story behind this. Last time, my senior led the team to participate in the academy competition, we formed an alliance at Zesili's request. But Zesili turned against us in the end and took some of our points for himself, which resulted in us finishing third."

Lan Xiaoxiao crossed her arms and narrowed her eyes. "So, you chose 'honest people' like us this time because you suffered a loss at Zesili's hands last time, right?"

Akino hurriedly explained in a panic, "Of course not!"

He scratched his head a bit embarrassedly. "Actually, our instructor told us not to form an alliance with anyone this time. However, I've heard of Miss Luo Li's name for a long time, and I've noticed something strange about this secret realm, so I started thinking about forming an alliance."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yichen looked at Luo Li and asked, "Junior Sister A Li, what do you think?"

Luo Li curled her lips, "Okay, the points are 46."

Akino was overjoyed, "That's great!"

Qiao Qingyu and the others looked at each other behind Qiu Ye and had no objection to this decision. After all, the captain of the team this time was Senior Brother Qiu Ye.

Qiu Ye's eyes sparkled with excitement, and he quickly stretched out his hand, ready to high-five Luo Li as a pledge of peace.

"I'll do it." But Yue Hanchuan on the side stopped him. He curled his lips slightly, and his palm collided with Qiu Ye's palm, making a crisp sound.

Akino laughed, "Then from now on we are allies!"

Luo Li stood aside, her eyes moving. She nodded slightly, tacitly agreeing to the alliance.

She looked up at the sky and said, "We can't stay here any longer. Let's leave first."

Akino immediately turned around and said, "Okay!" without any objection.

Luo Li nodded, turned around, and walked towards the route she had just sensed.

Ye Yichen and Mo Yizhou caught up with Luo Li in a few steps and explained the situation to her in detail. "We should have only walked one-fifth of the way, so there's no danger. But we're not sure if there will be monsters blocking the way in the second half."

Luo Li nodded and pondered, "Because of the laws of heaven and earth, even though this is an ancient secret realm, at most only God King-level monsters will appear here. With Qingqing here, there won't be any major problems."

A cool breeze blew by, and Luo Li and the other two stepped onto the solid ground, stepping into the road step by step.

The surrounding stone walls are tall and steep, like a natural barrier, isolating it from everything outside.

The sunlight shines through the treetops on the stone wall, casting mottled light and shadows, adding a bit of mystery.

Three hours later, dusk had arrived and the last rays of sunlight from the horizon shone over the mountains, casting the steep peaks in a light golden hue.

In the middle of the slightly narrow stone path, Luo Li extended his consciousness forward, and said with a slight curl of his lips, "We'll be out of this mountain range in a quarter of an hour at most."

Mu Ze stretched and said, "Finally, I'm almost out!"

Luo Li also turned her wrist and glanced at the sky. "Let's go. Let's try to get out before dark."

After all, apart from picking some spiritual plants along the way, they did not encounter any danger.

Even if we encountered any, they were all magical beasts at the divine beast level, and we didn't encounter any super divine beasts at all.

As Luo Li finished speaking, everyone quickened their pace. The road ahead was getting narrower and narrower, but a brighter light shone through the cracks in the stone wall, indicating that the exit was approaching.

Mu Ze's steps became more and more brisk, and his curiosity about the unknown reached its peak. "Great, great, I can finally see other parts of this secret place!"

Suddenly, a low roar came from the front, shaking the broken stones on the stone wall to fall.

Luo Li's expression froze, and the spear in her hand trembled slightly, as if she had sensed an unusual presence ahead. The others also stopped in their tracks, looking warily in the direction of the sound.

As the roar echoed, the light ahead seemed to be gradually swallowed by an invisible darkness.

The darkness was like a giant beast emerging from the abyss, opening its ferocious mouth, ready to devour any living creature that dared to approach.

The air around seemed to freeze, with only the roar echoing.

Everyone's breathing became heavy, their eyes fixed on the light that was about to be completely swallowed by the darkness.

Luo Li raised her hand, narrowed her eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Be alert!"

Everyone immediately summoned their own spiritual weapons and stared at the exit, "Yes!"

Suddenly, a huge beast leaped out from the darkness and crossed the valley in an instant.

It was a massive beast, nearly obscuring the entire sky, its body covered in black scales. Its eyes gleamed with ferocity, its fangs bared, and its roar shook the earth, as if threatening to shake the entire secret realm.

Luo Li's hands suddenly tightened, "God King!"

She had never seen such a big monster before. Even the current Xiaoliu's body might not be as big as this God King monster.

She waved her hand, and Lan Qingqing instantly appeared there.

Lan Qingqing stopped and scratched her ear in confusion, "What's going on..."

Before she could finish her words, she suddenly sensed a very familiar breath. She twitched her nose and suddenly raised her eyes. After seeing the giant beast hanging in the air, her pupils trembled violently, "Mo Qilin?!"
