Chapter Twenty-Four: One of the Ancient Secret Realms

Chao Huan fainted in pain, and in a daze, he felt a pair of big hands pick him up from the water, and a spiritual power came, evaporating the water vapor on his body.

She was carried on the bed, and the man covered her with the quilt, and she did not move.

She vaguely felt the man's gaze on her, but she didn't wake up for long before she fell into deep darkness.

Only the last thing I heard was a soft sigh.

On the other side, Yan Wuya went all the way north, and with his cultivation, he hurried extremely fast, but he arrived at the location of the Ancient Secret Realm in two days.

The Ancient Secret Realm is different from the ordinary Secret Realm, in addition to being dangerous, more importantly, it is difficult to find. But the sky has its own way, and the jade slip he gave records most of the situation in this secret realm, even some major sects definitely don't have such detailed information.

Unlike ordinary secret realms, the opening time of the ancient secret realm is uncertain, but since the sky is exhausted, Yan Wuyan will come here, naturally because this place will be opened in the near future.

Yan Wuya waited for a day and a half, and sure enough, he felt that something strange was happening, the ancient secret realm was opened in different ways, and when this secret realm was opened, a purple vortex opened in mid-air, sucking everything around it into it.

However, Yan Wuya had already set up an enchantment nearby, and it was difficult for ordinary people and those with low cultivation to find the abnormality here, firstly, to prevent innocent people from being involved, after all, for those people, the Ancient Secret Realm did not represent chance, but death.

The second is to prevent someone from snatching it, although it is not uncommon for people to kill people and seize treasures in the cultivation realm, Yan Wuya still chooses to avoid disputes as much as possible.

At this time, as soon as the secret realm door opened, he flew into it.

Shortly after he left, a man came from afar, stepping on his sword and wrapping his hands around him.

The giant sword under his feet is simple and heavy, and the edge is hidden, and at a glance, he knows that the person who comes is a sword cultivator, and his strength is not bad.

Noticing the strangeness here, he was surprised: "Oh? There is an ancient secret realm opened here. โ€

He stretched out his hand and pinched it a few times, then nodded, "Yes, it's the Ancient Secret Realm." And there is a secret treasure in it that will be of great benefit to my disciples, so I should go and find out. โ€

He flew away with his sword, but he easily crossed Yan Wuya's enchantment.

The enchantment arranged by Yan Wuya is only to prevent some people with low cultivation, and those who are equivalent to him in cultivation can also discover the entrance here if they are interested, even if they prevent it, it will make every sense.

Besides, there are not many people in the world who are comparable in cultivation to him, but most of them will not suddenly appear in such a place.

Soon after Jian Xiu left, the entrance closed, and calm returned to mid-air.

The Ancient Secret Realm is extremely vast, but it is filled with a strange red mist, and the visibility is not high, Yan Wuya advances according to the map given by the day.

Danger lurks in the mist, and from time to time there is the roar of a demon beast, and a vulture hovers in mid-air, a pair of eyes firmly fixed on the person on the ground.

Yan Wuya once again slashed a lizard-tailed wolf that rushed out, he raised his head, and the vultures in mid-air increased.

Yan Wuya ignored it, withdrew his sword, and continued along the road. As soon as he was gone, the hovering vultures landed on the carcass of the lizard-tailed wolf and began to eat in large gulps.

The location where the Lone Lantern Phantom Branch grows is extremely hidden, in the deepest part of the Ancient Secret Realm, if it weren't for the people at the end of the day who accidentally got lost there, probably no one would know that there was such a thing here.

When the subordinate found out, the Lone Lantern Phantom Branch had not yet reached the maturity stage, and there were suspected traces of the existence of high-level demon beasts around it, according to his speculation, the demon beast at least had human Mahayana cultivation.

The subordinate was just refining the void, and he gave priority to his own life more than greedy for natural treasures, so he chose the day of this intelligence report and got a reward for the day and space. As it turned out, the subordinate's choice was extremely correct.

Because this demon beast has already cultivated in the late Mahayana period, and under the influence of the Lone Lantern Phantom Branch, it has already broken through to the Mahayana period, and it is only a thin line away from the tribulation.

That demon beast only needs to wait until the Lone Lamp Phantom Branch matures, and with the spiritual power of the Lone Lantern Phantom Branch, it can break through the Mahayana level in one fell swoop, and achieve the Tribulation Cultivation in one fell swoop!

Now, it is only three days before the lone lamp is ripe.

On the other side, Yan Wuya was still fighting for nearly half an hour, and there were more and more demon beasts attracted by the smell of blood, but most of these demon beasts were average in strength, and they were easily cut down by him.

The corpses at his feet piled up, and gradually the demon beasts also discovered that this human being was not easy to bully, and did not continue to send him to death one after another, but shrank in the fog to observe Yan Wuya, as long as he showed a little fatigue, he would attack him in groups.

Yan Wuya also discovered this, but he was not worried, it was not impossible to destroy these demon beasts with his strength, but it took time not to mention, even he would lose his strength, according to the intelligence of the end of the day, the most powerful demon beasts were guarding the Lone Lamp Phantom Branch, if they wanted to obtain the Lone Lantern Phantom Branch, there must be a vicious battle.

So, after killing chickens and monkeys once, after the demon beasts didn't dare to be impulsive, Yan Wuya achieved his goal, he didn't shoot at will, but just ruthlessly killed those demon beasts that would attack him, showing an absolute strength.

After a few times, some of the demon beasts with a little wisdom were shocked by his fierceness and didn't dare to step forward at will.

Yan Wuya continued to move forward, and he found that these demon beasts didn't seem to have very good eyesight for some reason, and most of them relied on hearing and senses.

The Ancient Secret Realm has existed for a very long time, although it has existed since ancient times as its name suggests, but it is definitely tens of thousands of years old. It can be said that another ecosystem has been formed here, and in this foggy environment, these monsters that have lived here since their time have degraded their eyesight.

It is also the deterioration of eyesight that makes these demon beasts' sense of hearing and smell extremely keen, and even if Yan Wuya is hidden in the mist, he will be discovered because of the smell of blood, coupled with his cold fragrance that is different from this, it makes him as conspicuous as a light in the dark.

Maybe these demon beasts won't attack suddenly now, but as more and more demon beasts come together, the demon beasts that have the advantage in numbers will be ready to move again, and then there will be another fierce battle.

Yan Wuya reined in his aura, he sped up, and decided to get the Lone Lantern Phantom Branch and leave before more demon beasts gathered.

After a day of walking, he had gradually become accustomed to the fog and the smell of blood, but at this moment, the tip of his nose smelled another smell different from that in the secret realm.

This taste is... Something immediately appeared in Yan Wuya's mind.

Barbecue.

In fact, Yan Wuya doesn't eat much earthly food, his appetite is not strong, and after cultivating, he is even more alone, and he rarely has contact with mortals. I will remember this smell, or when I first entered the cultivation, it was a night meeting on a snowy night.

"Brother, try my craft."

He withdrew from his memories and followed the taste, the smell of barbecue became stronger and stronger, and as he got closer, the fog in front of him dissipated.

If someone really made a fire here to barbecue meat, the wood made a crackling sound, a smooth wooden stick skewered a large piece of meat on the fire and roasted it, and the man even took the spices he carried with him and sprinkled them on the barbecue, the fat was mixed with the aroma of spices, and people couldn't help but want to swallow their saliva.

One person sat by the fire, watching the barbecue rub his hands excitedly, turning it from time to time, looking very expectant.

At this time, Yan Wuya suddenly appeared, the man was obviously stunned, paused, and said, "Do you want to eat?" โ€

Yan Wuya: "ยทยทยทยทยทยท"

Yan Wuya shook his head, he glanced at the man, a man in his thirties, at a cursory glance, he only thought it was an ordinary man, but Yan Wuya was keenly aware of the calloused right hand of the other party.

The long sword beside the man also shows his identity as a sword cultivator, the long sword is as simple and unpretentious as a man, but Yan Wuya himself is a sword cultivator, so he naturally understands what a good sword is. The long sword looks unremarkable, but it is hidden and sharp, and if it comes to the moment when it is unsheathed, it must be unstoppable.

In this way, Yan Wuya did not despise the other party, after all, the cultivation realm is so big, and it is not strange that there are a few strange people who like to barbecue meat in the secret realm.

He bowed slightly, said hello, and prepared to turn and leave.

"Fellow Daoists, stay." The man shouted first, he patted his ass and stood up, and pretended to salute, "It's down there... Eh, Xu Xiao, I haven't consulted the name of the Taoist friend yet. โ€

Yan Wuya didn't want to hide his identity, so he said, "Yan Wuya." โ€

"Feast... Yan Wuyi. The man looked puzzled and muttered, "Why is this name so familiar?"

Yan Wuya didn't explain, his reputation was not obvious, and it was not strange not to know him, if he recognized him at once, it would seem a little strange.

The man didn't dwell on it for too long, looked at Yan Wuya and said, "Yan Daoyou, but you're here to look for the lonely lamp phantom branch?" โ€

When Yan Wuya saw Xu Xiao, he knew that the other party's purpose should be similar to his own, Xu Xiao's cultivation was on par with him, and there were not many things that people in this cultivation realm were looking for when they came here.

It's just that he didn't have the heart to kill people and grab treasures, so he was ready to leave, since the purpose was the same, the big deal was to rely on their own abilities, but Yan Wuya was determined to find an antidote for Chaohuan, even if he tried his best, he had to get the Lone Lamp Phantom Branch.

At this moment, Xu Xiao broke through, and Yan Wuya stopped and looked back at him.

Xu Xiao smiled and said good-naturedly: "I also came to look for the Lone Lamp Phantom Branch, yesterday I had found the traces of the Lone Lamp Phantom Branch, but after a search, I found that there was a demon beast that was cultivated in the late Mahayana period, and the demon beast was only separated by a line, compared to the day when the Lone Lantern Phantom Branch matured, it could also achieve the tribulation." โ€

Yan Wuya frowned, and the information at the end of the day clearly said that the demon beasts only had Mahayana, and the horizontal and vertical were in the middle stage, but he didn't think that it was already about to reach the tribulation period.

If it is in the middle of Mahayana, even if it is a vicious battle, it will not necessarily lose, and in the later stage, it can barely fight with the top combat power of sword cultivation, but if it is allowed to break through to the tribulation, I am afraid that it will be difficult to take away the Lone Lantern Phantom Branch from its hands.

Xu Xiao obviously knew this truth, and he stopped Yan Wuya, because he took a fancy to his cultivation in the middle of Mahayana, thinking that the two could join forces.

Xu Xiao bluntly said that he was in the early stage of Mahayana, and it was difficult to fight the demon beast alone, if the two joined forces, the two top sword cultivators would be enough to make up for the gap in cultivation and fight with the demon beast.

"I have to take the lone lamp branch." Yan Wuya said.

Xu Xiao naturally thought of a solution, "The Lone Lamp Phantom Branch is of great benefit to my disciple, but he only needs a part, and the two of us work together, and this Lone Lamp Phantom Branch is naturally divided equally." โ€

Yan Wuya hesitated for a moment, he didn't know how many lonely lamp phantom branches he needed to use Chao Huan to detoxify, but compared to taking a risk and betting, it was best to get half of the results safely.

He nodded in response, "So be it." โ€
