Chapter 141 Fiery Beast
"Yes, Senior Brother!" the group replied in unison.
They then stepped onto their swords and flew towards the location of the Marrow Cleansing Spring.
Before they entered the Sumeru Secret Realm, the elders gave them a map, and their current location was not far from the location of the Marrow Cleansing Spring.
After flying on their swords for a while, they found a good spot in a tree near the Cleansing Spring and hid there.
Not far away, a fierce battle was raging. A dozen cultivators were locked in a close fight with a powerful demon. It should be noted that there is a threshold to entering the Sumeru Secret Realm; only cultivators below the Golden Core stage can enter.
However, there are no restrictions on the monsters in the secret realm. After all, they are native monsters and naturally deserve special treatment.
"Huh, I didn't expect them to be from Tianyuan Sect and Luohua Academy!"
Yu Ling'er looked at the group of people who were fighting fiercely and recognized who they were. She didn't expect that the two groups would join forces.
As soon as he finished speaking, the great demon roared to the sky, and his body began to change rapidly. Not only did his size increase several times over, but it also became much larger than before.
Its cultivation level jumped directly from the peak of the Golden Core stage to the Nascent Soul stage, and a pair of huge wings even evolved on the back of the beast.
It resembled both a snake and a dragon, looking somewhat like a strange creature, and exuded a strong demonic aura.
Moreover, the power of the Out-of-Body stage caused everyone present to pause in surprise. This higher level of cultivation was a challenge for them.
But if they were two levels higher, it would be like a mountain blocking their way.
The berserk beast roared and its attacks became even more ferocious, its huge tail whipping wildly at the cultivator closest to it.
The cultivator was caught off guard and, after being struck, was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Looking at the person lying under the tree where they were hiding, Yu Ling'er couldn't help but swallow.
Holy crap, this monster is too fierce! How can it be so powerful? Luckily, I didn't rush in recklessly, otherwise I would be the one getting slapped.
"Hey you guys in that tree over there, stop hiding! If we don't get rid of the Flame Beast together, none of us will survive! How about we join forces, kill the Flame Beast first, and then talk about the Marrow Cleansing Spring?"
Ye Yuan from Luohua Academy was a little anxious when he saw his junior being knocked away by the Flame Beast. In fact, when the Flame Beast went berserk, he noticed that there were a few people hiding in the tree over there, who seemed to be trying to take advantage of the situation.
Hmph! How could they possibly let them snatch this bargain so easily? However, this berserk Flame Beast in front of them was indeed beyond their ability to deal with.
The more people there are, the greater the chance of winning. If they don't join forces, they'll probably all die. At that point, forget about the Marrow Cleansing Spring; they'll probably have to go down to the Ghost Prison hand in hand.
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingyun waved his hand and grasped the sword, then called out to his junior brothers and sisters beside him:
"Go! Let's deal with the Flame Beast first!"
After saying that, he rushed forward first. Seeing this, Li Hanzhi and Yu Ling'er also summoned their own Xuan Swords and rushed forward.
The moment the group appeared, Qing Muhan of the Tianyuan Sect couldn't help but burst into a tirade of curses.
"Damn it, it's you guys! You just stood by and watched me die? Are we even brothers anymore? You were just hiding there watching the show, Ye Qingyun, you guys are dogs!"
"Hey! You can't say that. Weren't we dogs? Who knew you guys would be so useless? Not only did you fail to take down the Flame Beast, you even made it go berserk!"
Otherwise, why would we need to help? Humph! Now they're even criticizing us; it seems they don't want our help anymore, huh?
Upon hearing Qing Muhan's words, Yu Ling'er instantly exploded. She knew it! She disliked this guy from Tianyuan Sect the most; he was always talking nonsense and criticizing everyone.
It's only because their sect has a good relationship with each other that they bother with this guy!
She pouted in dissatisfaction, wanting to give this guy a good stab, but the current situation didn't allow it. If they weren't careful, they would all be finished. She decided to settle the score with him later.
"Mu Han, say less and concentrate. This is a Nascent Soul stage Flame Beast. Don't get hit by it."
Yan Cheng was speechless. What kind of time was this? His junior brother still couldn't keep his mouth shut.
If the Imperial Sword Sect comes to help and they get angry and leave, then they'll all be dead. To avoid a mass annihilation, he quickly spoke up to remind them.
Upon hearing this, Qing Muhan pursed his lips and stopped speaking, venting his dissatisfaction on the Yan Beast in front of him. His swordsmanship was fierce, and every move was filled with killing intent.
Seeing Qing Muhan quiet down, Yu Ling'er smiled smugly. "Hmph! You little brat, serves you right for being so talkative!"
While things were getting heated on one side, Gu Xinyan had just sent a letter to Lan Xing, but she would have to wait for Xiao Bai to return before she could retrieve it.
Xiao Bai has gone to fool the spirit of the realm and probably won't be back for a while. As for the second floor, she doesn't plan to set it up yet. After all, she's in the secret realm right now, and even if she sets it up, there won't be any guests. It's not too late to set it up later.
She glanced at the sky outside, which suddenly darkened, and guessed it was going to rain. She walked to the entrance of the store and looked into the distance, where she saw Lu Yunting and his three companions hurrying back.
As the group approached, Gu Xinyan asked curiously:
"You're back! Did you find anything?"
Upon hearing this, Li Chendong excitedly replied, "Hehe, you know what, I actually made a discovery. Just a little further in from this forest, there's an orchard..."
Moreover, deep within the orchard lies a spiritual spring with milky-white water, surrounded by spiritual plants. We don't recognize any of these plants, but they must all be valuable.
"Yes, yes, not only that, the fruit on those trees looks really good. We came back to invite you to come with us."
"It would be perfect to set up the shop there, and we can also pick fruits and spiritual plants while we're at it. If things don't go well with Xiaobai, we can pack them all up and take them with us without wasting anything," Gu Xinya said with a hint of excitement.
Lu Yunting and Yan Xiyun didn't speak, but they both nodded in agreement. They thought the same thing and wanted to provide double protection.
If Xiaobai succeeds, they can take the entire secret realm with them. But if Xiaobai fails, their trip will still be worthwhile.
Every bit helps; after all, nothing in the secret realm is ordinary.
