191: 【Taoist Snake Sacrifice】

Two weeks later, after a long two-hour drive, Li Wen, sitting on a hard seat, felt as if his backside was about to go numb, the pain unbearable.

He twisted his body, trying to relieve the discomfort, while secretly groaning.

Finally, the bus slowly stopped, and the moment the door opened, Li Wen stood up with a sigh of relief, eager to get off the bus.

The moment his feet touched solid ground, he felt as if he had been liberated; the feeling of his entire body relaxing was truly inexpressible.

As for why he chose to take a bus to this place, the reason was simple — the destination was simply too remote.

It was located in a remote mountainous area with inconvenient transportation, making it difficult for regular means of transport to reach.

Seeing Li Wen's awkward and miserable expression, Lin Bufan, who was beside him, showed foresight and said with a smile.

"Junior Brother, don't curse!"

Hearing this, Li Wen's face became even uglier, looking like someone suffering from severe constipation.

Being so accurately poked in his sore spot by his Senior Brother, he truly felt bad.

After calming down a little, Li Wen remembered another key person for this trip, so he quickly asked.

"Alright, Senior Brother, will Senior Zhu Ling come?"

Lin Bufan heard this, couldn't help but curl his lips, and replied.

"Oh, her? She's much more valued than me! She's already been here when she was in her second year of university."

"It's just a pity that even though she is excellent, she doesn't possess a unique charm like Senior Yi Fei, and ultimately failed to successfully contract a pet beast."

As the two were talking, they had unknowingly walked a certain distance. At this point, Li Wen began to clearly feel that this place was receiving an unusual level of attention.

He saw that the surroundings were filled with dense security forces, roughly estimated to be four or five times the number found in other ordinary secret realms.

Perhaps the reason why the pet beasts existing here are so special is greatly related to their unique attributes.

One must know, just the Serpent Stone Statue alone has truly astonishing related data.

There are even rumors that within this mysterious land, even more unique pet beasts are hidden!

With just a quick glance, Li Wen caught sight of a familiar face.

That squinty-eyed good person was Ruan Yiming from the University Beast Taming Competition, the same person Li Wen had met last time.

From his past performances, it was clear that he should indeed have a place in this secret realm exploration trip.

On normal days, he always kept a low profile, only exerting himself fiercely at critical moments; it was likely no exception this time.

Besides this, another figure caught Li Wen's attention.

It was a male student, whose appearance was quite similar to Senior Zhu Ling. According to a certain Senior Brother, this was Senior Zhu Ling's twin brother.

And regarding this person, the Senior Brother had told Li Wen at the time:

"See him? That's Zhu Ling's twin brother, you absolutely must not provoke him! His temper isn't very good; he always calls me 'Little Blue Hair' and warns me not to provoke his sister!"

Li Wen: Haha, this has nothing to do with me.

He had initially thought it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven to see peers again.

However, fate is always full of surprises and unexpected turns; in an inadvertent moment, he saw someone, Lin Ning!

As for why he would appear here just like himself, it was truly perplexing.

Speaking of Lin Ning, he was quite famous! He was known in the martial world as the "True Body of Fiery Virtue," but his image was vastly different from the legendary Zhu Ling.

Zhu Ling had fiery red hair like burning flames, while Lin Ning had ordinary black hair, looking unremarkable.

It was just unknown whether, when he was in fierce combat, he could truly burst into raging flames all over his body, as the rumors claimed?

Those who came to explore this secret realm were not just the famous students from prestigious schools.

There were also a portion of elites from other institutions, numbering more than twenty when counted carefully.

Once everyone had gathered, the passage to the secret realm naturally opened.

At this moment, someone was heard shouting loudly: "Lord 'Dog', all selected candidates have arrived."

The person called "Dog" nodded with a solemn expression upon hearing this, then said loudly.

"Everyone, since you have arrived, I hope you will not take this mysterious place entirely as a place of blessings."

"You must know that there are numerous hidden dangers within; you must prioritize your own safety."

After speaking, he stepped aside, making way, and gestured for Li Wen and the others to enter first.

After everyone had entered, "Dog" followed behind them, clearly this Zodiac-level figure was the security head for this mission.

Upon first entering the secret realm, Li Wen immediately experienced the difference from usual secret realms.
