In her previous life, Han Wei painstakingly cultivated to the Tribulation Transcendence stage, only to die under the celestial thunder meant for ascending to immortality. When she opened her eyes a...
Chapter 121 Escape
When Master Dongyang saw that Han Wei, a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, did not kneel down in the face of his deliberately released pressure, he was quite surprised.
“Little girl, still being stubborn. My disciple’s magic weapon is in your hands now. If you really didn’t kill him, hand over the storage bracelet. I will check it. If you don’t have it, I won’t make things difficult for you. Do you dare?” said Master Dongyang.
Han Wei looked up despite his imposing presence:
"Why wouldn't I dare? Senior, you caught it!"
Han Wei said she was about to take off her storage bracelet and throw it over, but what she actually threw was not the storage bracelet, but a gold brick.
After being thrown, the gold brick struck Master Dongyang on the forehead with incredible speed. Master Dongyang was startled by the sight of the gold brick.
Celestial artifact!
She actually possessed a celestial artifact at the mid-stage of the Integration Realm.
Even cultivators at the Tribulation Transcending stage wouldn't dare to directly catch the flying gold brick; True Person Dongyang dodged it.
The gold brick missed its target and immediately flew back into Han Wei's hand. Han Wei had already donned the Thunder King Armor and leaped onto the Thunder Chariot the moment she threw the brick, fleeing at breakneck speed.
Master Dongyang recognized her as having a Wood Spirit Body, so whether she killed Li Chong or not was irrelevant. He would definitely not let her go; he would either capture her and use her as a furnace to refine medicine, or throw her into his furnace. Since the Mirror of Reflection couldn't deal with him, Han Wei could only throw the gold bricks out to create an opportunity to escape.
Seeing Han Wei fleeing in her thunder chariot, Master Dongyang chuckled sinisterly. Did she really think a mere Nascent Soul cultivator could escape from a Tribulation Transcending cultivator?
He wasn't in a hurry to chase after them; he felt incredibly lucky. He had actually stumbled upon a top-tier furnace like the Wood Spirit Body, and even a celestial artifact.
He already considered Han Wei, along with her magic weapon, as his own.
He moved swiftly and chased after Han Wei.

In the sky, a battlefield chariot roared past, crackling with arcs of electricity. Behind it, the clouds burned like flames, turning the sky into a sea of fire that surged forward like a tsunami, almost catching up with the speeding thunder chariot.
"Little girl, where do you think you're going to run off to?"
The voice of Master Dongyang rang out from all directions, and Han Wei felt the temperature rising higher and higher, and her body getting hotter and hotter.
Her divine sense saw the sea of fire behind her suddenly shrink, contracting into a gigantic fireball that hurtled towards her. Han Wei was struck by the sun-like fireball and plummeted from the sky along with her car. Fortunately, she realized she had arrived at the area filled with stone statues.
Han Wei put away the Thunder Chariot and rapidly formed hand seals as she fell.
The towering stone statues were covered with dense, mysterious runes. As Han Wei descended from the sky and got closer to them, more and more of the stone statues appeared with these mysterious characters.
Then, these stone statues suddenly opened their eyes, their eyes emitting golden light, and they all looked up at the Dongyang Zhenren high in the sky.
Han Wei landed on the shoulder of one of the stone statues, and Dongyang Zhenren chased after her from the sky. He was still a thousand feet away from Han Wei when he was attacked by the stone statue. A third eye appeared between the brows of hundreds of stone statues, each a hundred feet tall, and a beam of red light shot out from the third eye.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
A series of red beams of light pierced large holes in the sky, leaving Master Dongyang in astonishment.
But then the stone statues seemed to come alive, each wielding its own weapon and attacking him. Some of the life-sized statues even leaped into the air, golden chains shooting out from their palms like pythons as they pounced on him.
Master Dongyang snorted coldly, and a blinding red light erupted from his body, crushing all the chains into powder. With a deafening roar, thousands upon thousands of stone statues were destroyed. Amidst the billowing dust, Han Wei transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the ground, skimming along the surface as she sped toward the center where the stone statues were gathered.
There are as many as a million stone statues here. As Han Wei flew, she formed hand seals and awakened all the stone statues.
At first, Master Dongyang didn't take the stone statues here seriously, but the stone statues awakened by Han Wei became stronger and stronger. In the end, a stone statue with the cultivation of the Tribulation Transcending stage even woke up and trapped Master Dongyang.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Han Wei summoned the Thunder Chariot again and drove it away without hesitation.
With her current level of enchantment, she knew these stone statues could trap Master Dongyang, but killing him was impossible. Given her current cultivation level, the probability of her killing him with a sneak attack using gold bricks was also very small. Therefore, after weighing the options, Han Wei chose to flee.

Two weeks later.
This was a sea area, and at the place where the sea and sky met, a bolt of lightning streaked across the sky. The lightning suddenly stopped, and a stunningly beautiful girl in silver-blue armor stood in the air above the sea, driving a chariot pulled by a thunder beast.
She is Han Wei.
Han Wei looked around and spread her divine sense. Seeing that there was no one around, she put away the chariot and landed on a small island.
She thought of the Dongyang Master and wondered: I've been running for half a month, have I shaken him off?
Han Wei wasn't sure, she only hoped the stone statue could trap him for three to five years, or at least seriously injure him. She feared things wouldn't go as planned and it would catch up quickly. Regardless, there was no use in speculating now; she could only take it one step at a time.
Han Wei sat cross-legged on a rock and took out a map from her storage bracelet.
A map of the secret realm floated before her, displaying illusory images of mountains, forests, grasslands, palace ruins, and more. She used the map to determine her location; she was currently in the southern archipelago of the Mi Sea. The island she was on wasn't recorded, only that it was part of the southern archipelago of the Mi Sea.
After the Xuan Tian Secret Realm opens, the only way to leave is to go to the central continent at the center of the realm. It is said that once you reach the Black Stone Palace on the central continent, you can use the Xuan Tian Token to open the gate to the outside world.
They've only been in this secret realm for less than two months, and they've already been targeted by a monster in the Tribulation Transcending stage.
What terrible luck!
Han Wei had no intention of seeking opportunities elsewhere, and headed directly towards the Central Continent.
Whatever opportunities she encounters along the way, that's fine. Ah Heng is still waiting for her. If she can reach the Black Stone Palace smoothly and quickly, she will use the Xuan Tian Token to open the door and leave without lingering any longer.
Having made up her mind, Han Wei, after a short rest, once again took out the Thunder Chariot. She piloted the chariot, flying towards the Central Continent while searching for opportunities.
Several days later, Han Wei arrived at Mount Luna.
The Moon God Mountain was located on her only route to the Central Continent, a place teeming with dangerous demonic beasts. Taking a detour would add at least a year to her journey. Han Wei didn't want to delay, so she put away the Thunder Chariot and carefully concealed her presence as she moved stealthily.
