Chapter 1500 The Great Secret Realm
“Let’s go.”
Yun Han smiled in the crowd.
He felt that he would have a good time by following Mengmeng than following other elders.
Just like that, the group of people boarded the aircraft.
They went to the edge of the south coast to gather.
There were many disciples on this trip. All kinds of aircraft had risen into the air and were whistling into the distance.
When Zhang Han and the others arrived, they saw the aircraft going on an expedition.
“How many people are going for the trial? Aren’t there only dozens of teams?” Mengmeng was stunned.
“Who knows? It looks like there are a lot of people.” Yue Xiaonao shook her head slightly.
“There are a lot of people going out to gain experience,” Hun Xuan said with a smile, “and only the elite disciples of our sect have the right to sign up. The other disciples are also led by different protectors or chief supervisors. They will train in the peripheral areas of the secret realm mainly for exploring. The secret realm is vast, and there are always some important places with spirit treasures or other secret realms.”
“Oh, I see.” Mengmeng nodded slightly.
“Haven’t you trained with your sect before?” Heavenly Hound asked curiously.
“If it’s true, isn’t she just a novice? However, I lost so many spiritual treasures to a novice?”
“Call me Elder.” Mengmeng glared at him and said, “You’re so impolite.”
Heavenly Hound noticed Little Hei’s gaze and glanced at the Holy Wind Dog King that was obediently lying on the ground next to him, so he couldn’t help but say in an embarrassed tone, “Yes, Elder.”
“I can’t mess with Zhang Yumeng. Otherwise, my Holy Wind Dog King will be bullied.”
He didn’t know how Mengmeng got the Great Devil, and it was so fierce.
“Shall we set off directly?” Mengmeng asked.
“The place we are going to may not be the same as the other teams. Let’s gather up first. We can also ask First Elder Hanlong,” said Hun Xuan.
“Okay, I’ll ask.”
Mengmeng immediately contacted the elder.
First Elder Hanlong quickly gave her the coordinates and asked them to go there. He also informed them that more than a dozen teams had set off first.
“Then let’s go.”
The spaceship cut through the void. At first, it flew in the same direction as the other aircraft in the air. Later, it gradually deviated from the route of action and flew on its own.
It wasn’t safe to pass through half of the Sixth War Zone. Even the dozen squads needed to move together.
But First Elder Hanlong knew something about the situation of Mengmeng’s team. He couldn’t wait for those with ulterior motives to make trouble for them. In a word, those people would be courting death.
After flying for three and a half days, they finally arrived at their destination.
It was said that the Flying Sand Plains had sunk a lot, but the place could no longer be seen from the outside. There was a thin layer of fog on the plains, and the environment inside was partly hidden and partly visible. It seemed to be a little different from the past.
There was a mountain peak very close to them. Many aircraft were parked on the flat ground nearby.
Some elders and teams of the Sword Sect stood according to different positions and were clearly distinguished.
When Mengmeng and the others came down, they immediately attracted a lot of attention.
“Zhang Yumeng, Yun Han, Heavenly Hound, Hun Shang, Hun Xuan, Jiang Yanlan…”
“Elder Zhang’s team members are all top figures.”
“No wonder she has so few team members. One can’t join her team without qualified strength.”
That remark was what many people thought.
When the sign-up started, many people considered joining Zhang Yumeng’s team.
But soon, some famous people joined in, which also attracted a lot of attention. They wanted to join in, but they felt a little awkward with the sudden addition of them among the top disciples. Besides, the other elders were stronger after all, so they gave up the idea of joining Mengmeng’s team.
“Elder Zhang, you came here on your own?” Elder Blackeye laughed from afar.
“Yes, we flew here on our own. It seems that we need to wait for the other teams for a while,” Mengmeng replied.
She didn’t notice that a few meters behind her, Hun Shang and Hun Xuan were staring at Elder Blackeye without saying a word.
“Is this the peripheral Bounded Domain?”
Heavenly Hound moved and slowly approached the mist of the Bounded Domain.
“Don’t go over.”
Blackeye furrowed his brows slightly and said, “If you accidentally enter it, you will have to leave the Bounded Domain from another place. If you appear in the crowd of the Heavenly Evil Sect, you may die.”
“Damn. Is it so dangerous?”
Heavenly Hound immediately retreated a few meters, observed carefully for a few seconds, and retreated to the front of Mengmeng.
At this time, Zhang Han, Yue Wuwei, Zi Yan, Zhao Feng, and the others did not speak.
Zhang Han and Yue Wuwei looked at each other.
“I sensed a trace of unusual aura,” Yue Wuwei said via Designated Voice-transmitting Technique. “There may be some precious treasures in this big secret realm.”
“I don’t know if there are precious treasures, but this secret realm is quite interesting,” Zhang Han replied with the Designated Voice-transmitting Technique. “It’s unusual. We should be careful.”
When Yue Wuwei heard this, his eyes became a little more serious. “The situation last time won’t happen, will it?”
Yue Wuwei was really upset that their men had been transmitted. He hated those irresistible things.
Zhang Han’s eyes lit up, and he kept sensing with his sense. He could see some clues from the outside. He shook his head slightly and said, “The secret realm is just a secret realm. It’s not that terrifying. What happened last time was because of the means beyond the Cultivation World.”
“Alas!”
Speaking of this, Yue Wuwei sighed softly and said, “Sir Mysterious took action back then after all, and it caused a great impact.”
Zhang Han did not say anything more.
Elder Blackeye also reminded the others.
“Everyone, wait here patiently. All the teams have arrived. We’ll wait for half a day. When the entrance show signs of weakening, we can enter.”
In another direction.
In the east of the Flying Sand Plains, there were many teams of the Authentic Martial Arts Sect.
Their talents also had their own teams. Some leading elders were chatting with each other.
“During this trial, the competition between the talents of the Heavenly Evil Sect and the Ling Sea Sword Sect will be fierce.”
“Of course, the talents from both sides are wanted.”
“Our sect doesn’t have to worry about that. All of you, listen carefully. You can participate in the trial and seize the treasures. But if you meet someone stupid, just kill them. The Authentic Martial Arts Sect is fearless.”
“…”
Within a team, Leng Yue and the others were gathered together.
“We can meet all our people from Mount New Moon in the secret realm, right?”
“I checked the lists. In addition to the little princess, Jiang Yanlan is the only one on the list of the Sword Sect.” Ah Hu said with a chuckle, “Brother Feng and Brother Qing don’t have any influence over there.”
“That’s good.” Yun Feiyang said rationally, “It’s easy to trick others while pretending to be weak.”
“We have to be careful.” Leng Yue reminded them, “Although we have a lot of defensive means and spirit treasures, our cultivation is only in the middle level among the people who enter this time. There are many disciples and elders at the stage of the Void-refining Realm.”
“Oh, right. Elders in charge usually don’t take action, right? Is that an unwritten rule of the Four Great Sects?” Jiang Bing asked curiously. “If that’s the case, then our little princess can’t take action as well. She’s an elder of the Sword Sect now.”
“Who said it’s a rule?” Ah Hu shook his head and said, “Just now, Elder Xi said that only the leading elders and some famous elders would not take action. The others may not be the case. Moreover, there may be a war between the Heavenly Evil Sect and the Ling Sea Sword Sect.”
“Let’s just focus on the trial and try to defeat some talented disciples.”
“…”
They were chatting.
On the side of the Heavenly Evil Sect, there was also a small team. Mu Xue, Instructor Liu, and Xu Yong were gathered together.
“I’m at the God Transformation Realm Peak Stage. I’m not afraid of this trial,” Mu Xue said flatly.
“You make it sound as if we are not at the Peak Stage. You broke through a few days earlier than us,” Instructor Liu said arrogantly. “Back then, I was just a minion. You are Mu Xue the female demon. I didn’t expect that my cultivation level would catch up with yours now.”
“Liu, don’t show off in front of me. Otherwise, if you hook up with the junior sister, I’ll tell Yanlan.” Mu Xue snorted.
“What do you mean by hooking up? Don’t talk nonsense.” Instructor Liu’s face darkened. “She had some questions, and I just answered perfunctorily.”
“I doubt if you were perfunctory or active,” Xu Yong joked.
“Hahaha.”
Instructor Liu snorted.
“I didn’t expect that the people of our sect attached so much importance to Mengmeng.” Mu Xue’s expression suddenly became more serious. “She ranks first on the list, and the reward is ten times more than that of Heavenly Hound. Many talents are tempted to kill her.”
“How dare they go to Mengmeng? They will be courting death.” Instructor Liu’s eyes were slightly cold. “If I meet those people, I’ll kill a few first.”
“Don’t rush it. Let’s play it by ear. She has Master and Elder Yue with her, so there won’t be any problem.” Mu Xue nodded slightly.
It could be said that they were from the Heavenly Evil Sect, but that was just on the surface.
In fact, they only regarded themselves as members of Mount New Moon.
“However, I’m a little curious. Xu Xiaoqiang from the sect is going to fight with our little princess. I think they’re well-matched in strength,” Instructor Liu said.
“Xu Xiaoqiang…” Mu Xue’s expression became serious. “He is very strong.”
“He’s also a funny guy,” Xu Yong said. “It’s said that he had fought with Heavenly Hound more than a dozen times and had the upper hand. However, eight of his spirit treasures were robbed, and Heavenly Hound was injured six times.”
“I don’t know where Xu Xiaoqiang comes from. He is a mysterious man,” Mu Xue said hesitantly. “No one knows which force he belongs to, but First Elder values him very much. He has a lot of spirit treasures, so he doesn’t mind having a few of them taken away. Heavenly Hound on the south coast of the Sword Sect is no match for him, and Mengmeng has also defeated Heavenly Hound. I still think Mengmeng will be more powerful, and no one can defeat her with their trump cards.”
“I don’t think so. Xu Xiaoqiang is at the Void-refining Realm Middle Stage, and he can often fight with the elders at the Last Stage. The little princess is only at the God Transformation Realm Middle Stage.” Xu Yong said with a wry smile, “Did you forget that? You thought the little princess was at the Void-refining Realm Middle Stage.”
Mu Xue patted her forehead and said, “Yeah. Mengmeng is only in the God Transformation Realm, but her combat capability is too terrifying. Like father, like daughter. It’s understandable.”
“…”
Three of the Four Great Sects had people from Mount New Moon, and only the Crimson Sunglow Sect didn’t.
In fact, the Crimson Sunglow Sect should have recruited the most valued little princess of Mount New Moon, but things went contrary to their wishes. There was even some resentment between Mengmeng and the sect’s Third Elder, Taoist Heavenlight.
“The energy at the entrance is beginning to weaken.
“Wait a moment.”
First Elder Hanlong said, “I’ll open the entrance. You’ll enter one after another and search separately. If you find the Place of Inheritance, inform the sect as soon as possible.”
The Place of Inheritance was what the various sects fought over with all their might in the secret realm.
The spirit treasure can improve one’s physique, but the inheritance can improve the foundation of the sect.
“We’re going in.” Heavenly Hound narrowed his eyes slightly.
“We’ll do as First Elder Hanlong said. You can feel my coordinates after entering. Don’t stay too far away from me, or I can’t save you if something happens.” Mengmeng said very responsibly, “You need to send me a message at a fixed time every day besides encountering accidents.”
“It’s too troublesome to send a message every day. I’ll send it every three days,” Heavenly Hound said.
“What about the rest of you?” Mengmeng asked.
Yun Han replied, “That’s okay for me.”
The others nodded as well.
“Then you’ll send me a message every three days,” Mengmeng said.
When they were about to enter, Heavenly Hound rubbed his hands and said excitedly, “I must grab more spirit treasures from Xu Xiaoqiang this time.”
“Xu Xiaoqiang…” The corners of Yun Han’s mouth trembled slightly. “You lose to him every time, so why are you always looking for him?”
“Haha, who said I’m not a match for him? I was just showing my weakness for the sake of snatching the treasures.” Heavenly Hound snorted.
“You are really confident.” Yun Han shook his head, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes. “Xu Xiaoqiang’s spear skills are so powerful that I almost couldn’t escape.”
“Who is Xu Xiaoqiang?” Mengmeng asked curiously when she saw that everyone looked serious.
Hun Xuan explained beside her, “Xu Xiaoqiang is an outstanding talent of the younger generation of the Heavenly Evil Sect. He has a lot of merits and is very strong. He has a red tassel spear, which is said to be a seventh-tier spirit treasure. His spear skills are extremely strong and he is not an easy opponent. Similarly, he also likes to cheat people. However, he is not so bloodthirsty.
“With your strength, you need not be too nervous when you see Xu Xiaoqiang. He merely won against Heavenly Hound by a little. I believe that you also possess a powerful trump card.” Hun Xuan smiled.
“I see.”
Mengmeng nodded slightly.
“If anyone dares to provoke Mengmeng, we’ll crush them all,” Yue Xiaonao muttered.
Seeing this, Yue Wuwei couldn’t help teasing, “Don’t say anything if you’re just watching the fun.”
“Elder Yue, you must have grown a beard again recently,” Yue Xiaonao said discontentedly.
Yue Wuwei immediately fell silent.
He looked at her with a smile.
Elder Hanlong shouted, “Enter the secret realm!”
A wooden tripod appeared in his hand, from which suddenly shot out a stream of light.
It entered the weak point of the Bounded Domain and directly bombarded a gap.
Now everyone could finally see the scene inside.
Mountains rose and fell, trees grew, and hundreds of plants flourished.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Team after team flashed into it.
They were the vanguards in the secret realm.
After entering, they split up into different groups. Each group gradually split up to explore their surroundings and advance forward.
Mengmeng only had her friends around her.
Zhao Feng, Chen Changqing, and Jiang Yanlan were not in a hurry to leave.
“Something’s not right.
Yue Wuwei sensed for a moment and suddenly took out a treasure. It was a black ball, which was constantly rotating and absorbing the surrounding energy.
He suddenly said, “The secret realm has existed for a long time, but there are many new auras. Is this a combination of a new and an old secret realm?”
“Why would you even have such a treasure?” Zhang Han asked in confusion.
“Ahem, did you feel anything?” Yue Wuwei changed the subject.
The others all looked at the two of them. It seemed that the secret realm was a little unusual.
“I don’t find anything unusual. This is the periphery of the secret realm.” Zhang Han said, “But as you said, there are new changes in the old secret realm. I think the changes are external. Let’s go inside and see what’s going on.”
Everyone was curious about what would be in the secret realm.
They moved forward slowly.
Apart from the mountains and lush forests, there was nothing else.
Chen Changqing looked around and said, “There doesn’t seem to be an animal here.”
As soon as he finished speaking.
“Ow!”
Little Hei’s nose twitched, and it suddenly stared at the right side with vigilance.
“Let’s go over.”
Zhang Han’s expression changed slightly.
The group of people quickly flew to the right.
Five minutes later, they finally saw something.
“It’s the skeleton of an Exotic Beast.”
“It belongs to an Iron-bone Crocodile.” Yue Wuwei said, “This Exotic Beast is famous for its tough bones. Judging from its bone aura, it should have been dead for some years.”
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he needed to eat his words.
Little Hei sniffed and said in a low voice, “Master, it hasn’t been long since it died, and there’s still the smell of blood on its bones. The further in we go, the hotter the air becomes.”
“Hmm? Did I make a mistake?”
Yue Wuwei was stunned. After careful observation, he found a clue.
“There are a lot of places nearby that are filled with the smell of blood,” Little Hei added. “I can smell the blood, but I can’t sense anything else. Nor can I find any spirit treasures. It’s as if this land has been destroyed and the mountains and trees have been reborn.”
“In this case, it may be an unknown energy storm or an occult art performed by someone with extraordinary cultivation. If this is happening only nearby,” Zhang Han said.
“It seems that it’s not easy to make an Iron-bone Crocodile like this,” Yue Wuwei said. “I guess we’ll find the reason if we go deeper.”
Seeing this, Mengmeng thought for a moment and took out a jade slip, which was a spirit treasure for contacting the team.
She reminded her team members, “All of you, be careful. This secret realm is quite unusual.”
She didn’t tell Elder Hanlong about this. After all, they hadn’t figured out anything yet. Her team should be the fastest. They should be at the forefront. It wouldn’t be too late to talk about it after they figured out the situation.
Zhang Han and the others continued to move forward.
There were mountains, rivers, lakes, glaciers, and volcanoes.
One could see that the Flying Sand Plains didn’t look the same as before.
Especially those who had been here, they were quite vigilant when they saw this.
The Flying Sand Plains were similar to a desert, with fine sand everywhere, as well as oases and plants, but the place didn’t use to have the variety it did now.
On the first day, the second day, and the third day, the group seemed to be still on the periphery.
They continued to move forward at a moderate speed.
They still didn’t see any creatures, only lush green plants.
It was the sixth day.
Whoosh!
Mengmeng’s jade slip suddenly buzzed.
She sensed it and heard Heavenly Hound’s roar.
“Damn it. Elder, bring the guys to save me!”
Hearing this, Mengmeng was stunned and immediately said, “Dad, there’s a problem. Heavenly Hound needs help.”
“Lead the way.”
Zhang Han’s eyes narrowed slightly.
They flew toward the target at a high speed. Mengmeng kept sensing the seal. Heavenly Hound was very far away from them. He was at the very front, constantly running toward her as if something was ceaselessly chasing after him from behind.
“Ow!”
When they were about to approach him, Little Hei’s eyes became sharp and it roared in a low voice.
“Come and save me now! This thing is too terrifying!”
Heavenly Hound screamed in the distance.
Behind him was a crystal-white skeleton in the shape of a giant lizard.
Its bones reflected light, sparkling and holy.
Heavenly Hound cursed angrily, “It keeps absorbing my Qi and blood. I can’t stop it. What a dark thing!”
“It absorbs Qi and blood.”
Zhang Han looked over and looked a little confused.
This thing had the appearance of a darkness-type creature, but in reality, it wasn’t all that. It had a holy aura, which was a bit strange.
