[Chapter 063] Secret Realm Opened
[Chapter 063] Secret Realm Opened
Since yesterday, Beihu Lake has been guarded by a large number of imperial guards, and no unauthorized persons are allowed to approach.
Seeing the monks coming, the imperial guards guarding the periphery of North Lake immediately moved to the sides.
Four monks walked in front with high spirits, and behind them were more than forty strong but disheveled martial artists.
Soon everyone reached the North Lake.
Not long after, someone else came.
Among those who came, there were both cultivators and martial artists.
Now the martial artists who arrived first didn't have to guess, because they knew that the purpose of those monks capturing them must be related to that secret realm.
As for the magical medicines that can cure all diseases and the magical fruits that can prolong life, even if they are lucky enough to get them, they will probably not be able to use them.
Nangong Chenyu in the crowd swept across the entire place without leaving a trace.
There were about fifty or sixty cultivators coming from Lingyuan Continent. They all wore robes and had extraordinary temperament. It is easy to distinguish them from the several cultivators in the Mortal Continent.
The several cultivators from the Mortal Continent should be from the National Master's Mansion of the Western Qi State. Their cultivation base is at the sixth, seventh, or eighth level of Qi Refining.
Among the cultivators from Lingyuan Continent, more than twenty of them are at the eighth or ninth level of Qi Refining, and the rest are at the Foundation Establishment stage.
Just when the cultivators of Lingyuan Continent gathered together, a few martial artists who did not realize the situation took the opportunity to jump into the river and planned to escape.
“Thump, thump~”
The sounds of people falling into the water came one after another.
The cultivators from Lingyuan Continent didn't need to say anything, several cultivators from the Xiqi State's National Master's Mansion immediately attacked the person who jumped into the river.
In an instant, waves rolled up on the surface of the lake.
Soon, those people who jumped into the lake were seen floating to the surface from the bottom of the water with injuries on their bodies.
The Xiqi State Master snorted coldly: "You don't know what I'm talking about!"
A man in the Foundation Establishment Stage frowned and said, "Just teach them a lesson. When the secret realm opens, let them go in first."
"Yes." The state teacher of Xiqi State had a flattering look on his face.
After this incident, all the martial artists looked at those monks with fear. No one dared to jump into the lake again.
At three quarters past nine, ripples suddenly appeared on the calm surface of the lake.
The monks who were chatting seemed to sense something and all looked towards the lake. They were calm before, but now they couldn't hide the excitement in their eyes.
At this time, two Jindan-stage cultivators finally arrived.
Everyone made way for them and the two walked quickly to the lake.
After white mist appeared on the lake surface, two Jindan-stage monks immediately input spiritual energy into the lake at the same time. Not long after the spiritual energy fell on the lake, a whirlpool as big as a palm appeared on the lake.
As the two input more and more spiritual energy, the area of the vortex became larger and larger. When most of the spiritual energy in the two people's dantian was gone, a white light gate slowly rose in the center of the vortex.
It was not until the white light gate left the lake that the two Jindan stage cultivators stopped inputting spiritual energy with pale faces.
After the two of them took the tonic pill, a cultivator came forward and asked, "Seniors, can we go in now?"
The two Jindan-stage monks looked at each other, and one of them said, "There is a seal on the portal."
"Then how can we break the seal?"
The Jindan stage monk wearing blue robes did not speak. Instead, it was another Jindan stage monk wearing white robes who gave the answer with a blank expression.
"With the blood of a hundred people as a guide."
The monks who heard his words turned their eyes to the martial artists present.
The martial artists who heard his words all retreated. It turns out that all those magical medicines and fruits are fake. These monks don't take their lives seriously at all.
"There are only eighty-six people in total." Someone among the monks said.
Seeing the retreat of the mortals, the Jindan stage monk in blue robes faced the crowd and spoke majestically: "Everyone line up. It will take three drops of blood from each of you to unlock the portal."
Everyone who thought they were going to drain all the blood from their bodies: "..."
"Master, is it really true that only three drops of blood are needed?" a brave man asked.
"Yes, just three drops of blood."
After getting the guarantee, everyone started lining up.
Because there were not enough people, fourteen people were found from the imperial guards to fill the gap.
After collecting the blood of a hundred people, one of the Jindan stage cultivators splashed the blood on the white light gate.
Everyone looked towards the white light gate.
As soon as the blood touched the white light gate, it was absorbed by the white light gate. Red cracks appeared on the originally transparent barrier.
It looks extremely weird.
The monks present all felt that this teleportation was a bit like evil. As soon as this thought came to their mind, they saw the barrier shattered and spiritual energy floated out of the light gate.
"It's OK." One of the Jindan stage cultivators reminded: "Hurry up and go in. The portal will close in half a quarter of an hour."
The Xiqi State Master pointed at the people who jumped over the lake and said, "You guys go in first, and the others follow closely behind."
The other people he was referring to were naturally the martial artists.
No matter how reluctant we are, we have to go in.
Just as everyone was entering the secret realm in an orderly manner, someone came flying on a sword from a distance.
When Nangong Chenyu saw one of the people on the flying sword, his pupils couldn't help but shrink.
The people who came were Jun Han and Nangong Suhao.
The person standing behind Nangong Chenyu saw him standing still and pushed him: "Little brother, it's your turn."
Although he didn't know why Nangong Suhao came here with a cultivator, Nangong Chenyu could see that Nangong Suhao came here voluntarily.
Retracting his gaze, Nangong Chenyu entered the portal.
After the world was spinning, I finally felt my feet on solid ground. Nangong Chenyu opened his eyes and saw a ruined palace.
At the same time, the sound of people's discussions rang in my ears.
“Isn’t this the secret place?”
"It must be."
"This palace is so shabby. I feel like it's not as good as outside."
"By the way, are there any magical herbs or fruits in a place like this?"
Everyone looked around, trying to find the elixir or fruit that the monk had mentioned.
People were teleported here one after another. After a while, eighty-six martial artists arrived.
Everyone stayed where they were, waiting for the monk to come in.
But after everyone waited for a quarter of an hour, no monk was teleported here.
Someone couldn't help but ask, "Would those monks not come in?"
This thought has arisen in many people's minds.
"Does any of you know how to get out?"
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you. No one knew how to get out.
Seeing the panic-stricken people, Nangong Chenyu said, "When the secret realm is closed, we will be teleported out."
Someone immediately asked, "When will the secret realm be closed?"
Nangong Chenyu couldn't answer this question either.
Someone else said, "I don't know if there is any food in here. If the secret realm is closed for ten days or half a month, and there is no food, won't we starve to death or die of thirst?"
As soon as this person said this, everyone became uneasy.
Everyone immediately scattered to find food.
However, no one entered the dilapidated palace in front of them.
Soon, Nangong Chenyu was the only one left there, and he walked towards the dilapidated palace.
As soon as he entered the palace, he saw three skeletons. With a quick glance, his eyes fell on the knuckles of three dry bones. Just because everyone wears a space ring on their knuckles.
Nangong Chenyu released his spiritual sense and carefully examined the several dry bones. After a while, he discovered soul fluctuations in the space ring of one of the skeletons.
Regardless of whether the other party wanted to take over his body or not, he put several space rings into his personal space as quickly as possible.
After it was done, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Passing a few dry bones, he continued walking into the palace. Looking at the intact chair, it turned into ashes as soon as his hand touched it. Obviously the furniture has weathered due to the passage of time.
After a tour around the palace, he collected a total of seven space rings.
It was ten minutes later when he walked out of the palace.
And those who went in search of food returned. Everybody sat on the ground, looking as if they had lost their parents.
Nangong Chenyu asked a nearby person: "What's going on, everyone?"
The man sighed and said, "We walked about 200 meters outside, and then we were blocked by an invisible barrier."
The invisible barrier should be a barrier.
Nangong Chenyu plans to go and see for himself.
The palace was surrounded by a grassland, and apart from the eighty-six people who had just entered, there was no living creature. Nangong Chenyu walked forward two hundred meters and bumped into a transparent barrier.
He gathered spiritual energy in his hands and tried to touch the barrier.
The next moment, his hand passed directly through the barrier.
Seeing this, Nangong Chenyu condensed a protective shield around him and then walked towards the barrier.
Just as he thought, he walked out of the barrier easily.
But before he could be happy, a rustling sound came from not far away. Looking closely, he saw ants as big as a baby's fist crawling towards him quickly.
It turned out to be an anteater.
Although they are all at the low level of Qi Refining, their numbers are too large to be surpassed.
Nangong Chenyu chose a direction opposite to the anteater, used his skills, and left quickly.
If he guessed correctly, the reason why the people of the Mortal Continent were teleported to one place was because they all had blood on them. The barrier is a protective shield. As long as everyone does not leave the barrier, they will not encounter the monsters in the secret realm.
The anteater followed closely behind Nangong Chenyu.
Nangong Chenyu ran so fast that he almost ran out of Hot Wheels. He originally thought that he could get rid of the anteater by running for a distance.
However, he didn't expect that he had shaken off the crawling anteater, but a flying anteater was chasing him.
The "buzz buzz buzz" sound is like a death warrant.
It’s a pity that he can’t fly with his sword now.
He continued to move forward while launching lightning attacks at the anteater behind him.
Soon, he ran into a forest.
The number of anteaters chasing him dropped from more than two hundred to eighty or ninety. The anteaters stayed outside the woods, as if there was something in the woods that frightened them.
Seeing that the anteater stopped chasing him, Nangong Chenyu breathed a sigh of relief. He found an open space, took out the spirit stone and held it in his hand, recovering the consumed spiritual energy while keeping alert to his surroundings.
After recovering the spiritual energy in his dantian, he stood up and walked into the depths of the woods.
At the same time.
The cultivators who entered the secret realm were distributed throughout the secret realm, while Nangong Suhao and Jun Han were teleported to an iceberg.
For Jun Han, who has ice spiritual roots, staying here is no different from staying anywhere else.
But as soon as Nangong Suhao stood firm, he couldn't help shivering.
He rubbed his arms and said, "It's so cold here."
Originally, Jun Han wanted to see if there were any treasures with ice attributes here. However, after hearing Nangong Suhao's words, he immediately sent out the flying sword.
"Let's find a place with active fire-attributed spiritual energy first, so you can draw the energy into your body."
"good."
Nangong Suhao naturally would not have any objection.
The flying sword flew out with a whoosh.
Half a day later, the two came to a barren land. This place is filled with fire-attributed spiritual energy, which is very suitable for cultivators with fire spiritual roots to practice.
Jun Han found a place with rich fire-attribute spiritual energy and dug a cave.
"I don't have any techniques suitable for cultivators with fire spiritual roots. You can practice with ordinary techniques first, and then change to other techniques later." As he said this, Jun Han took out a jade slip and handed it to Nangong Suhao.
After hesitating for a moment, Nangong Suhao told the truth: "I have a cultivation method."
Jun Han frowned: "The cultivation method is different from the ordinary martial arts method."
"It's not a martial arts technique, it's a technique suitable for the cultivation of fire spirit roots." Nangong Suhao explained: "I got it by accident."
He didn't say that it was given by Nangong Chenyu.
Jun Han put away the jade slip and said, "Then draw the Qi into your body first. If you don't understand, ask me."
Nangong Suhao immediately asked: "How do I induce it to enter my body?"
"Sit cross-legged first." Jun Han explained to Nangong Suhao patiently.
Because Jun Han chose a good place, Nangong Suhao sensed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in just one hour. Because he did not cleanse his essence and marrow first like Ye Yishen and Nangong Chenyu, it took him a full four hours to successfully draw Qi into his body.
After successfully drawing the Qi into his body, Nangong Suhao did not stop practicing. He immersed himself in absorbing the red light spots.
One day later.
Nangong Chenyu dealt with two level 2 red flame tigers and found a low-grade spiritual vein under the red flame tiger cave. Just when he was about to collect the inferior spiritual vein, three cultivators in the late foundation building stage suddenly broke in.
The three of them simply ignored Nangong Chenyu and looked at the spiritual vein with shining eyes.
"Once we bring this spiritual vein back, we will definitely get a reward from the sect."
As he spoke, one of them took out the magic weapon that contained the spiritual vein.
Nangong Chenyu did not disturb the three people's interest. He just stood aside and watched them work together to collect the spiritual veins into the prepared magic weapon.
When the man holding the magic weapon was about to put the spiritual vein into his Qiankun bag, Nangong Chenyu quickly snatched the magic weapon containing the spiritual vein and threw it into his personal space.
"Thank you very much."
The male cultivator whose spiritual vein was robbed shouted angrily: "You are looking for death!"
As he spoke, he sent out a flaming palm wind towards Nangong Chenyu.
Nangong Chenyu raised his sword and slashed down.
"Bang~" the two attacks collided.
The flaming palm wind was dispersed, but the sword energy did not diminish and attacked the male cultivator directly.
Locked by the sword energy, the male cultivator had no way to escape.
"Puff~" The clothes on the chest were cut open, and the male cultivator had a sword wound on his chest so deep that the bone was visible.
Originally, the three of them did not take Nangong Chenyu seriously, only because his revealed cultivation level was only the third level of Qi Refining. But the power of Nangong Chenyu's sword far exceeded his cultivation level, comparable to the sword moves of a sword cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
The three of them looked at each other and attacked Nangong Chenyu at the same time.
