17: The mysterious man in black from the Ten Thousand Demons Sect!

Seven days later, you completely suppressed the Demonic Insects within your body, but you also suffered a certain backlash.

Fortunately, you Cultivated the Azure Emperor Longevity Art, and your vitality and recovery energy are top-notch.

Even without Cultivating, your body is automatically repairing itself every moment.

You stood up and began to look around this Secret Realm. All the information about the Fallen Immortal Secret Realm was heard from Ye Chuxue.

You only know that the place you are currently in is the outer area of the Secret Realm, but you do not know the deeper parts.

However, the incident where you were killed by a powerful being with a single palm strike in the Secret Realm during the last simulation is still vivid in your mind.

You secretly held a grudge in your heart; for a gentleman, revenge is never too late.

Regardless of the other party's reasons, you are both on the side of humanity, but the other party disregarded this and attacked to kill you, so you have no need for mercy.

You temporarily left the Fallen Immortal Secret Realm and returned to Huang Village.

When you returned to the small courtyard, you found that Ye Chuxue was not there.

You initially thought she might have just gone out to Cultivate, or gone hunting for the nearby villagers.

It wasn't until you saw a letter left on the table that you confirmed Ye Chuxue had left Huang Village.

You opened the letter and read its contents.

Ye Chuxue said that Cultivators similar to Awakened Ones had appeared in Qin State, and she needed to go confirm and bring them back.

After reading the entire letter, you naturally knew who Ye Chuxue was referring to—Lin Qi!

After burning the letter, you immediately rushed towards Qin State.

You knew that because you had previously killed the Foundation Establishment Disciples of the various Sects, certain changes would definitely occur.

It definitely wouldn't be like before, where a Foundation Establishment Completion Stage Disciple led a group of Qi Cultivation Disciples to encircle them.

This time, it is very likely that Core Formation Cultivators will come.

Thinking of this, you dared not delay any time and rushed with all your might towards the capital of Qin State!

Ten days later, you finally arrived at the capital of Qin State.

As soon as you entered the capital, preparing to go to the residence in your memory, you suddenly heard commotion coming from the direction of the residence.

You knew that Ye Chuxue had already started fighting the enemy.

A moment later, you arrived at the residence.

At this time, Lin Qi lay in a pool of blood, his aura faint, as if he would die the next second.

On the other side, Ye Chuxue was not much better, surrounded by two Core Formation Cultivators.

Upon seeing this scene, you directly used the incomplete form of the Great Desolation Imprisoning Sky Finger, and a heaven-reaching finger slowly descended from the sky.

The two Core Formation Cultivators who were fighting Ye Chuxue, seeing that they were locked on, quickly used their strongest Divine Ability to resist.

However, their strength was insufficient; they could not resist your Great Desolation Imprisoning Sky Finger at all and were directly turned into ashes under the Great Desolation Imprisoning Sky Finger.

The other ten Foundation Establishment Completion Stage Cultivators who were besieging Lin Qi were so frightened by this scene that they immediately turned and ran.

However, you did not give them a chance to escape. With one finger, everyone turned into blood and vanished before your eyes.

"Su Ming? You broke through to Core Formation so quickly?"

Ye Chuxue's face showed both surprise and joy when she saw that it was you.

She didn't expect that you had successfully broken through to Core Formation in just one year, and it seemed that the backlash injuries from the Breakthrough were not very severe.

You didn't explain much. You walked over to Lin Qi's side, found that he was still breathing, then carried Lin Qi and took Ye Chuxue to escape Qin State directly.

Soon after you left Qin State, you were blocked by a figure.

You could not perceive the other party's cultivation, and you knew that their Realm was definitely above yours, and by more than just a little.

To your surprise, the other party did not make things difficult for you.

"Don't worry, I am also an Awakened One. The Core Formation Cultivators of the Three Great Sects, Wanmo Sect, Fenglei Sect, and Azure Cloud Sect, are still constantly coming towards Qin State."

"You all go ahead, I will help you temporarily block them."

You looked at the black-clothed man in front of you, feeling somewhat disbelieving.

You asked him why he was helping you, and if he wasn't afraid of his identity being exposed.

The black-clothed man replied that he was helping you simply to see what kind of Awakened One could stir up such a big storm in Qingzhou.

As for the issue of exposure, the black-clothed man assured you that he had his own methods and would not be exposed.

Before leaving, you asked the black-clothed man which Sect he belonged to, and he told you he was from the Wanmo Sect.

With the help of the black-clothed man, you did not encounter any pursuit on your way back to Huang Village.

A month later, you successfully returned to Huang Village.

Lin Qi's injuries slowly recovered along the way, and he can now walk normally.

This day, Ye Chuxue found you.

"Su Ming, that black-clothed man cannot be fully trusted."

You looked at her in confusion and asked why, and Ye Chuxue began to explain.

"Although our Awakened Ones' goal is to overthrow the rule of the Demonic Insects and reshape the entire Canglan Realm."

"In ancient times, we Awakened Ones were very united, but now, due to different ideals among many people, there are also struggles among Awakened Ones."

"So, before knowing the true purpose of that black-clothed man, one cannot fully believe what he says."

Upon hearing these words, you suddenly recalled the scene from the last time in the Fallen Immortal Secret Realm where you were smashed into a pulp by a palm.

Indeed, your guess was correct; there are internal struggles even among the Demonic Insects, and there are also struggles among human Cultivators.

You told Ye Chuxue that you would be careful and asked her to Cultivate well.

In the seventh year, your cultivation broke through to the Middle Stage of Core Formation. Ye Chuxue's cultivation had also reached a Bottleneck, and she told you that she was about to go to Tianyuan to Breakthrough.

Lin Qi spoke up and asked Ye Chuxue to take him along, while you originally did not plan to go this time.

However, Ye Chuxue told you that there is a Secret Realm in the Canglan Realm that opens once every ten years, and the next opening is precisely next year.

This Secret Realm only allows Cultivators below the Nascent Soul Realm to enter. Ye Chuxue had originally intended to tell you after she broke through to Core Formation.

But seeing that you were unwilling to go to Tianyuan, she told you in advance and invited you to go together after her Breakthrough.

Upon hearing this, you agreed to go to Tianyuan with Ye Chuxue. This time, you could take the opportunity to thoroughly explore the Fallen Immortal Secret Realm.

A month later, the three of you arrived at Tianyuan together. You and Ye Chuxue jumped down without hesitation, and Lin Qi hesitated for a moment before following and jumping down as well.

After entering the Fallen Immortal Secret Realm, Ye Chuxue found a place and began her Breakthrough.

At this time, Lin Qi left, citing a desire to look around, and you didn't think much of it.

You began to wander around the Secret Realm, slowly walking towards the deeper parts of the Secret Realm.
