About twenty kilometers southeast of where Lu Yuan was, a human team had just entered the secret realm through the entrance.
"Finally in!"
A small team of young men and women entered the secret realm, and upon seeing the scenery before them, they all stared wide-eyed in amazement.
"This secret realm has not yet been discovered by the outside world, so all the good things inside must still be there!"
"That's right! We should take this opportunity to find as many treasures as possible to bring back!"
The group chattered amongst themselves and finally decided that they should not delay and set off to explore immediately.
But.
A disagreement arose when deciding which direction to take.
"Let Brother Jiang decide which way to go!"
One of the boys spoke, his eyes unconsciously drifting towards the other boy behind him.
Before the latter could speak, someone nearby retorted.
"Brother Li is still here! Based on our strength, of course we should follow Brother Li's orders!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze turned to the boy standing at the back of the line.
Jiang Ye also turned his head to look, his eyes filled with an undisguised gloom.
As if sensing Jiang Ye's blatant gaze, Li Xingchi glanced at him lightly, then smiled playfully.
"Don't say that, Young Master Jiang will get angry!"
Li Xingchi's tone was somewhat playful, and the others didn't take it seriously, laughing and teasing him.
"That's not wrong!"
"Among the people here, Brother Li has the highest Beastmaster level and the strongest strength. The others simply cannot compare!"
"That's right! Who cares what others think or do? We can't beat Brother Li anyway!"
The people speaking were all scions of powerful families who wanted to befriend the Li family. As long as they could please Li Xingchi, they didn't care even if it meant putting down Jiang Ye and the others.
But Jiang Ye seems to be arrogant and proud.
His expression turned even uglier after hearing these scions of powerful families making disparaging remarks without regard for others.
Seeing this, the other members of the Jiang family who had sided with the Jiang family hurriedly tried to persuade him in a low voice, but Jiang Ye wouldn't listen at all and stepped forward to argue with Li Xingchi and the others.
Just then.
A loud bang suddenly came from afar.
Rumble—!
Suddenly, the clear sky not far from them changed dramatically.
Countless bolts of lightning tore through the clouds, roaming and flashing across the sky, emitting extremely terrifying roars.
Thick black smoke rose straight up, as if trying to punch a hole in the sky.
"What's going on?!"
What happened over there?
The entire team was startled by the sudden loud noise and looked in the direction of the sound.
"Could it be that the demonic beasts are fighting?"
"Judging by their size, they're probably high-level demonic beasts!"
"Let's go! Let's go take a look!"
The group, who had been debating which direction to take, immediately reached a consensus and rushed toward the source of the sound.
at the same time.
Lu Yuan examined the elixir he had just dug out of the demon beast's body, a pleased smile playing on his lips.
"I never expected to encounter a special monster with light attributes and the ability to use healing skills in this secret realm. It's truly a pleasant surprise!"
Just now.
He and the four little ones worked together seamlessly to kill a light-attribute monster that had reached the eighth level of the Illusion God realm.
The battle was extremely difficult.
The main reason was that this light-attribute monster possessed a very rare healing skill. In addition, the difference in level and combat power between the two sides was huge. They finally managed to break through its defense, but were immediately healed by the healing spell.
So, in this battle, Lu Yuan led the four little ones for nearly half an hour before finally defeating the monster.
but.
The rewards are proportional to the effort.
Monsters with light attributes are rare to begin with, let alone one that can use healing skills. For Xiao Yi, who can only rapidly increase her strength by absorbing crystal energy stones, this guy is undoubtedly the best source of nourishment.
"Little Yi, this guy's corpse and elixir are all yours!"
Lu Yuan handed the elixir to Xiao Yi with his other hand, while pointing to the corpse on the ground.
Even the corpse of an eighth-tier Illusion God-level demon beast should not be wasted.
"Eee!"
Xiao Yi, who was of the same mind as Lu Yuan, naturally understood his meaning and immediately nodded in agreement, directly devouring the monster's corpse and the elixir.
"Hiccup~"
After eating so much in one go, Xiao Yi couldn't help but let out a burp and rubbed her tummy.
Upon seeing this.
Lu Yuan couldn't help but chuckle and patted her head.
"Once you absorb all of this monster's corpse and elixir, your level should increase."
After cleaning up the battlefield, Lu Yuan led the four little ones to continue exploring.
Since there were no other humans in this secret realm besides himself, he led the four little ones to push through.
Any monster that came into view was captured on the spot.
In Lu Yuan's eyes, the entire secret realm had completely transformed into a buffet restaurant.
His only purpose was to let the four little ones eat and drink their fill here, empty the place, and then leave.
But what Lu Yuan didn't know was...
Just as he was swaggering through the secret realm, danger was quietly emerging in the distance.
Having witnessed his father and tribesmen being slaughtered by Lu Yuan and his entire tribe being destroyed, Kuang Suo is leading the few remaining minotaurs towards the lizardman tribe.
"Kuangsuo, even if we get to the lizardman tribe, what then? Will they believe us and help us?"
The minotaur following behind Crazy Sole raised a question, his tone somewhat uncertain.
Although the Minotaur tribe and the Lizardman tribe often interacted, their relationship could not be considered very close. At this time, the Minotaur tribe had just been destroyed, and Kuangsuo led them to the Lizardman tribe to seek help. They did not think that the success rate of this method was high.
Upon hearing this...
Kuang Suo glanced casually at the minotaur who had spoken.
His expression was calm, and his tone was extremely indifferent.
"This matter concerns the life and death of all tribes. Do you think that human will stop after slaughtering our tribe?"
Upon hearing this, the other minotaurs exchanged glances and tentatively asked in return.
"So what you mean is?"
"snort!"
Kuang Suo snorted coldly.
"If the lizardman tribe refuses to help us, I will tell that human their exact location. Then, even if the lizardmen don't want to help us take revenge, they will have no choice but to fight against that human!"
Kuang Suo's tone was utterly sinister.
If the lizardman refuses to help them, it will drag the other person down with it and make them die!
After hearing Kuangsuo's seemingly suicidal words, the other minotaurs did not refute him, and even nodded firmly.
In any case, the entire Minotaur tribe has been wiped out. Without a tribe, they would only be barely surviving.
Seeing the resolute expressions of his companions, Kuang Suo breathed a slight sigh of relief.
It didn't actually need to go to the lizardman tribe for help immediately.
After all, the other party is just a human. In this secret realm, there will always be moments of fatigue or drowsiness. If there is enough patience, it can follow in the shadows and wait for an opportunity to deliver a fatal blow.
But it dared not wait.
The main reason is...
They witnessed firsthand how Lu Yuan slaughtered the entire tribe.
The terrifying lightning and flames, with their fiery breath that seemed capable of melting everything in the world, were relentlessly eroding their will.
Driven by extreme fear, Kuang Suo dared not wait any longer.
They could only take advantage of the time when the other minotaurs' minds were occupied by anger and sorrow to immediately seek help to take revenge on Lu Yuan.
otherwise.
It will probably never have another chance to get revenge!
Not long after.
Kuangsuo and the other minotaurs arrived at a wetland.
Looking out, a wall, slightly more sturdy than that of the Minotaur tribe, stands not far away on the wetlands.
As Kuang Suo gazed at the silhouette that was faintly visible in the mist, a great weight was lifted from his heart.
boom--!
Sudden.
A tremendous roar came from behind, and the ground beneath my feet trembled slightly at the sound.
Dark purple lightning fell from the sky, and scorching red flames shot towards the heavens, as if a god had descended, causing the world to change color.
Kuang Suo couldn't help but swallow hard, his expression growing increasingly grim.
After a few seconds of stunned silence, it suddenly came to its senses.
"Run!"
"That human is getting closer and closer to us. We must hurry and explain the situation to the lizardmen. Only with the help of the lizardman wizard will we have a chance to defeat that human!"
After saying that.
Without looking back, Kuangsuo rushed towards the lizardman tribe.
As they approached the lizardman tribe, the guards standing at the gate immediately spotted them.
"stop!"
Upon hearing this, Kuangsuo immediately pulled back the other minotaurs who wanted to continue forcing their way in, and stopped them at the entrance of the lizardman tribe.
"I'm looking for your wizard!"
Kuang Suo spoke first, solemnly stating his purpose.
The lizardman guards looked puzzled after seeing them clearly.
"A minotaur?"
"Didn't we just exchange intelligence a few days ago? Why are you here again!"
The lizardmen and minotaur tribes have maintained contact throughout history.
In the middle of each month, they exchange information they have gathered in order to avoid danger and expand their territory.
The relationship between the two tribes is relatively harmonious.
This is also the main reason why Kuangsuo's first reaction was to seek help from the lizardman tribe.
"Now is not the time for explanations. A human has broken in, and we urgently need the wizard's help!"
"Humans?"
Upon hearing Kuangsuo's words, the lizardman guard burst into laughter as if he had heard a joke.
"Are you kidding me? How could a human possibly be here!"
"Besides, it's just a human being. Is it really worth our wizard wielding power? Look at you all, so scared and pathetic. You're utterly disgraceful!"
Faced with the lizardman guards' mockery, the minotaurs standing behind Madsor's expression instantly turned ugly.
"What did you say?!"
Several minotaurs were about to teach the lizardmen who were mocking them a lesson, but before they could make a move, Kuangsuo stopped them.
"Now is not the time to worry about these things!"
Kuang Suo turned to look at the lizardman guard in front of him, his expression gloomy.
"Go immediately and report to your wizard that humans have invaded and our minotaur tribe has been wiped out. If they don't want the lizardman tribe to be slaughtered as well, they'd better come to see me right away!"
Seeing Kuang Suo's serious expression, the lizardman guard also stopped joking.
After hesitating for a moment, it gave Kuang Suo a deep look.
"Wait here for a moment, I'll go and inform them for you!"
After saying that.
It quickly turned around and ran into the lizardman tribe.
A few minutes later.
The lizardman guards rushed out without stopping, their previous disdainful expressions completely gone, and hurriedly invited Kuang Suo and the other minotaurs into the tribe.
Entering the lizardman tribe.
The minotaurs, including Kuangsuo, noticed the gazes of the lizardmen coming from all directions.
Just a short distance ahead, a lizardman who looked extremely weathered was standing in front of a tent made of animal skins.
"You are the son of the minotaur chieftain, Crazy?"
The other party immediately revealed Kuang Suo's identity, and Kuang Suo nodded and responded with a slight bow of his head.
"My Lord Wizard."
This was clearly not the first time the two sides had met.
The lizardman wizard looked Kuangsuo up and down a few times, then led them into the tent.
The lizardman wizard spoke first as soon as he sat down on the ground.
"I've already heard from the guards why you're here. Has the Minotaur tribe really been wiped out by humans?"
Faced with the wizard's question, Kuang Suo clenched his fists and bowed his head deeply in response.
"……yes!"
“I watched with my own eyes as my father and the rest of my people bled to death under the clutches of that human. Not a single one of them survived.”
hiss!
Upon hearing Kuang Suo's answer, all the lizardmen present gasped in shock.
The Minotaur tribe was quite large, and its leader, who led many Minotaurs, was exceptionally powerful; otherwise, they wouldn't have chosen to join forces with the Minotaur tribe for development.
But what are they hearing right now?
The entire Minotaur tribe was destroyed by a single human?
Even the minotaur leader was killed!
It's simply unbelievable to them!
Only the lizardman wizard remained relatively calm.
Unlike the minotaurs who rely on brute force, it is the only shaman in the lizardman tribe and has a more acute sense of the spiritual energy around it.
Even before the arrival of the minotaurs, Kuangsuo and the others, it had vaguely sensed that the spiritual energy in the surrounding environment had become extremely turbulent.
This phenomenon has never occurred before.
So it guessed that something might have happened.
Nevertheless, it never imagined that the Minotaur tribe would be wiped out.
The atmosphere became somewhat tense.
The entire tent was plunged into a deathly silence.
final.
It was Kuang Suo who broke the silence.
“That human was incredibly powerful. My father was killed before he could even fight back, and he’s heading towards your tribe right now!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the lizardmen present were thrown into panic.
The humans who wiped out the Minotaur tribe are heading towards their tribe.
Faced with an enemy that even the minotaur leader could not resist, could they defeat that human?
Bang!
Just then.
The lizardman wizard slammed his staff heavily on the ground, making a dull thud that snapped the panicked lizardman back to his senses.
"What are you afraid of?!"
The lizardman wizard's expression was gloomy and cold.
"The opponent is just a human. Even if we defeat the minotaur chieftain and wipe out the minotaur tribe, what then?"
Upon hearing the wizard's low shout, the group of lizardmen trembled, their faces showing fear.
Seeing that the lizardmen had calmed down, the lizardman wizard then spoke.
"As long as I'm here, he won't be able to threaten a single blade of grass or tree in the tribe!"
Upon hearing this...
The expressions of all the lizardmen present suddenly turned fierce.
"That's right!"
"As long as the wizard is here, no matter how strong that human is, they will only meet their end in death!"
"We swear to serve the Wizard to the death! To annihilate humanity!"
"Exterminate humanity!"
"..."
Seeing the resolute expressions on the faces of the lizardmen around him, the lizardman wizard smiled.
Then.
It waved its hand and said to the other lizardmen:
"Battle is imminent. Go immediately and inform the other tribesmen to prepare!"
"yes!"
After all the lizardmen had left, Kuangsuo turned to look at the lizardman wizard.
"Wizard, if you need our help, we can assist you as well."
Upon hearing this, the lizardman wizard looked at Kuangsuo with a scrutinizing gaze.
"Kid, don't think I don't know what you're up to. It's just that with a strong enemy in front of me, I can't be bothered to argue with you."
"However, I advise you not to have any bad intentions!"
After saying that.
The lizardman wizard stopped looking at Mad Thor and the other minotaurs, closed his eyes, and waved at them.
Go!
"Go find your place. If you perform well, I may consider giving you a place to stay after the war."
