Chapter 590: The Deepest Obsession
In the Divine Wind Hall, in front of the Water Mirror.
The Duan Clan's Grand Elder frowned as he stared at the scene reflected in the water mirror—Ye Fei stood motionless with her eyes closed for quite some time.
If I'm not mistaken, the secret realm she was teleported to was the most terrifying of the eight secret realms, the Mystic Night Secret Realm.
This secret realm can reflect the deepest obsessions of those who enter, forming an illusion that gradually traps them within it. If the obsession is too deep, they will become deeply entrenched and unable to extricate themselves.
Most of the cultivators who came to participate in the Cangzhou Grand Gathering before were trapped in the Mystic Realm of Night, constantly falling into an endless cycle of painful memories in the illusion, eventually losing their minds, suffering unbearable pain, and choosing to end their own lives.
The girl in the water mirror only showed a mixture of joy and pain for a moment at the very beginning, but after that... her emotions had completely calmed down.
"Hey! Look! The leaderboard has been updated again!"
One of the team leaders called out, and everyone turned their attention to the leaderboard on the water mirror. At the top of the leaderboard was Yu Muhan!
"Yu Muhan? Which college is he a student from?"
"The Yu family? I don't think I've ever heard of this family... They probably aren't a very famous family."
Amidst the murmurs around him, the Dean, standing in the center of the crowd, calmly looked up at the rankings on the leaderboard, appearing as if he had accomplished his task and was about to leave, concealing his identity and fame.
Only he knew that he was actually overjoyed, but he didn't want to be too excited and frighten others.
Unexpectedly, Yu Muhan, who seemed to be the most vulnerable member of the team, was able to compete for the top spot!
Of course, his excitement lasted only a short while. The next second, he turned his worried gaze to the water mirror and stared intently at the girl standing in the mysterious night realm.
The illusion of the Mystic Realm was so realistic that he almost fell into it last time he was there.
Xiao Fei was just a naive girl in her early teens, and her temperament was naturally incomparable to his at that time.
Will her deepest obsession affect her?
...
The Secret Realm of the Sky and Sun.
Tang Qian struck a fire bat flying towards her with her whip, knocking it to the ground with a clang, and her crystal token gained another hundred points.
"I didn't expect the spirit beasts in this Qiong Ri Secret Realm to be so valuable. We've killed countless spirit beasts along the way and gained quite a few points." Tang Qian said casually, and then decisively dug out the beast core from the Flame Bat and threw it into her storage ring.
Yu Muhan brushed the dust off his sleeves and said calmly, "I heard some passing cultivators say that the Qiong Ri Secret Realm is the best secret realm for farming points—of course, provided that you don't get bitten to death by these spirit beasts."
Tang Qian looked Yu Muhan up and down, then smiled: "However, I didn't expect that someone who looks so gentle and weak could be so ruthless when killing spirit beasts..."
Yu Muhan paused, slowly sheathed the lightsaber in his hand, and murmured, "If I weren't ruthless, I might have already died at the summit of Panlong."
Tang Qian was sorting through the beast cores in her storage ring and didn't hear what Yu Muhan said carefully: "Huh? What were you saying just now?"
"It's nothing." Yu Muhan shook his head, not repeating what he had just said.
She looked at the teleportation array that appeared not far away: "The teleportation array has appeared, let's go."
Tang Qian raised an eyebrow: "We've been killing spirit beasts all along, and we've already passed through the Qiong Ri Secret Realm?"
Yu Muhan thought for a moment and calmly replied, "It should be that you have to kill a sufficient number of spirit beasts to pass."
