Upon hearing Zhang Yuhe's words...
The abbot of the Great Desert Academy frowned slightly.
He turned to look at Du Mingjiu behind him and asked with a puzzled expression.
"Mingjiu, how far are we from the location of the secret realm?"
Du Mingjiu took out the map and silently calculated for a while.
Then he responded respectfully.
"Master, is it still about half a day's journey?"
"Half a day..."
"The cultivators of the Mingxuan Realm probably wouldn't put their warning lines this far away, would they?"
The Great Desert Master muttered to himself silently.
Even at the speed of the Chaos Ship, it would still take half a day to fly.
It's clear that we're still quite far from the location of the secret realm.
No matter how vigilant the people of Mingxuan Realm are.
It's impossible to set up such a large-scale cordon.
Thinking about this...
The Great Desert Master turned to look at Zhang Yuhe and asked solemnly.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, are you able to identify the other party?"
Zhang Yuhe shook his head and then slowly responded.
"The distance is too far, and the sensation transmitted back by the wave divine power is not very clear."
"Unable to identify who the other party is."
"However, judging from his aura, he should be an Eternal Realm expert."
The Great Desert Academy Master's heart skipped a beat.
If Zhang Yuhe's perception is correct.
Then they must be cultivators from the Mingxuan Realm.
The reason is simple.
The Chaos River is vast and boundless; the chance of unexpectedly encountering an Eternal Cultivator is practically zero.
In remote places like this.
It shouldn't have happened in the first place; other cultivators shouldn't have appeared.
Moreover, it is the Eternal Realm.
You need to know.
Even in a region as vast as the Three Sacred Heavens, the number of Eternal cultivators is limited.
Not many.
Since Zhang Yuhe sensed the aura of an Eternal cultivator.
Then there is no doubt.
They must be from the Mingxuan Realm.
Thinking about these things.
The Great Desert Academy Master asked with a solemn expression.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, is it possible to avoid the opponent's position?"
"Can."
Zhang Yuhe nodded and responded earnestly.
Immediately following.
He reached out and circled a location on the map.
Then he said it casually.
"The other side is right here; we just need to go around them from a distance."
"good."
The Great Desert Master didn't say a word.
He quickly changed direction and steered the Chaos Ship to the side.
We are still quite a distance from the entrance to the secret realm.
He didn't want to be discovered by the people of Mingxuan Realm so quickly.
Ideally, we should launch a surprise attack and trap the enemy inside the secret realm.
The Chaos Boat sliced through the void and flew swiftly forward.
However, not long after...
Zhang Yuhe frowned slightly and whispered a reminder to the Great Desert Master.
Something seems off.
"That person's location kept moving."
"If we continue forward, we'll probably run into them very soon."
After saying that.
Zhang Yuhe reached out and drew a long arc on the map.
Then he explained.
"This is the other party's movement trajectory. It feels like that person is circling around us."
Looking at the arc drawn by Zhang Yuhe.
The Great Desert Master has not yet spoken.
Du Mingjiu, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"I see."
"The other party is conducting patrols and guarding around the entrance to the secret realm."
After saying that.
He reached out and tapped the center of the arc.
Then he explained to everyone.
"This is the entrance to the secret realm."
"The other party is circling the entrance, clearly keeping watch and worried that someone might approach the secret realm."
After listening to Du Mingjiu's account, everyone fell silent.
What should we do now?
Should we charge straight in and engage, or continue to approach covertly?
Zhang Yuhe looked at the Great Desert Master and slowly asked.
"Master, what do we do now?"
"Why don't we just take care of this Eternal cultivator who's on the outer perimeter first?"
The Great Desert Master was somewhat conflicted.
Of course he knew.
If we can eliminate them beforehand, the opponent will be an Eternal Realm cultivator.
That's definitely a good thing.
I'm afraid it won't be resolved in a short time.
Eternal cultivators are not so easy to kill.
As soon as they make a move.
Other cultivators from the Mingxuan Realm within the secret realm will surely surge out immediately.
This also includes Wan Kongyuan, a top-tier Eternal Emperor.
According to the original plan of the Great Desert Master.
That was his original plan.
The enemy is trapped inside the secret realm, and then slowly killed.
That's the same.
Not only can they wipe out all the cultivators from Mingxuan Realm who came out this time.
Moreover, it can also keep the secret of the mineral vein.
Otherwise...
If even a few cultivators from the Mingxuan Realm escape, they will surely spread the word far and wide.
They probably can forget about peacefully mining the Crimson Gold Divine Sand in the secret realm.
But now the other side has set up such a long cordon.
And this is only what Zhang Yuhe discovered.
maybe.
The other party may have other hidden security measures.
It seems impossible for them to continue stealthily approaching the entrance to the secret realm.
Thinking about these things.
The Great Desert Master no longer hesitated.
He spoke decisively.
"Never mind, let's take out the one guarding the perimeter first."
Since we can't avoid it, we can only try our best to kill the opponent first.
The Great Desert Master looked at Zhang Yuhe and slowly began to speak.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, please show me the way."
"We'll slowly make our way up, hoping to arrive before Wan Kongyuan arrives."
"Let's deal with this Eternal Realm opponent first."
Zhang Yuhe nodded, and he didn't say anything more.
He can now clearly sense the aura of that Eternal cultivator.
In his view.
This person's strength isn't that great.
Compared to Lu Yuan back then, they were far inferior.
Zhang Yuhe estimated.
If we launch a surprise attack.
He didn't need to activate the Primordial Unity Divine Power or use the Divine Demon Slaying Heaven Sword.
That way, we can get rid of this person.
...
Liu Jingming circled the entrance to the secret realm, flying back and forth in a patrol.
At the same time, they cautiously surveyed their surroundings.
Although in his opinion.
In such a secluded place, the chances of encountering other cultivators are slim.
But he kept in mind Emperor Kongyuan's instructions.
Liu Jingming dared not be careless in the slightest.
They continued their patrols diligently.
He didn't know.
At this moment, the Great Desert Master and Zhang Yuhe had already locked onto his figure.
As they prepared to launch a thunderous strike.
The Chaos Ship was hidden in the void.
The Great Desert Master looked at Zhang Yuhe and spoke solemnly.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, it's up to you this time."
Zhang Yuhe responded calmly.
"Don't worry, he can't get away."
After saying that.
Zhang Yuhe leaped off the Chaos Boat and quietly crept towards Liu Jingming in the distance.
The Great Desert Master followed closely behind.
According to the tactics they just discussed.
After Zhang Yuhe quietly deployed his sword formation and trapped his opponent...
The two of them attacked together again.
Try to crush the opponent in one fell swoop, giving Emperor Kongyuan no chance to come to their aid.
Ideally, this should happen before Emperor Kongyuan realizes what's happening.
They can then deal with this Eternal Monk.
Then, all the other cultivators from the Mingxuan Realm were trapped inside the secret realm.
Liu Jingming flew around the entrance to the secret realm.
At that very moment.
He suddenly stopped in his tracks.
A massive screen of sword energy rapidly rose in the distance.
The light curtain enveloped all around, completely enclosing him within it.
"not good."
Seeing this situation.
Liu Jingming took out the token and quickly cast a spell.
He shouted loudly at the same time.
"Lord of the Realm, someone has launched a sneak attack."
Before he could finish speaking...
An endless stream of sword energy swept in rapidly.
The terrifying sword energy, carrying immense pressure, made Liu Jingming feel suffocated.
at the same time.
A massive, illusory image of a millstone quietly appeared in the void.
The millstone's divine power enveloped all directions, almost imprisoning him in place.
Liu Jingming quickly summoned a three-legged cauldron.
As the hand seals were formed.
The three-legged cauldron quickly floated overhead, casting a faint glow.
They blocked all the invisible sword energy sweeping in from the outside.
However, before he could even breathe a sigh of relief...
A vast figure swiftly passed through the sword energy barrier and rushed straight towards them.
Seeing this situation.
Liu Jingming couldn't help but exclaim loudly.
"Nangong Damo, is that you?"
...
