174: Chapter 204 The Secret Realm Opens

Jiang Ling killed the opponent's Sixth-Rank Experts in succession, finally attracting the attention of their Seventh-tier Grandmaster.

A red-haired beauty from the opposing side descended from the sky and pounced toward Jiang Ling.

Her name was Alicia, a Seventh-tier Grandmaster from the Pretty Nation and a fire-type Ability User.

Alicia was tall and graceful, with long, straight, and powerful legs; every step she took carried a unique rhythm.

She wore a tight-fitting black combat suit that outlined her perfect figure to the fullest.

Her facial features were exquisite, like a painting, and her fair skin was as delicate as mutton-fat jade, exuding a healthy glow.

Those azure eyes were like deep lakes, clear and mysterious; when she stared at you, it felt as if she could see through your thoughts.

Her nose was straight, her lips were as luscious as rose petals, and the slightly upturned corners of her mouth always carried a confident smile.

She manipulated fire skillfully. With a gentle wave of her hands, she summoned raging flames. Under her command, the flames danced like agile performers, sometimes turning into ferocious fire Dragons, other times gathering into scorching fireballs.

Seeing Alicia coming, Jiang Ling didn't hesitate; he turned and fled.

He was completely unable to handle a Seventh-tier Grandmaster.

"Want to leave?"

Alicia snorted, and with a gentle wave of her jade hand, a massive fire Dragon lunged toward Jiang Ling.

This fire Dragon was extremely fast and, locked onto Jiang Ling by Alicia's mental energy, it pursued him relentlessly!

Jiang Ling had now reached the Fifth-Rank and was incredibly fast, covering dozens of miles in the blink of an eye, but he was still caught up by this fire Dragon.

There was no other way; Jiang Ling had to turn around and unleash the Yuqing Divine Thunder!

Rumble...

The purple thunder collided with the giant fire Dragon, erupting into a heaven-shaking explosion.

Jiang Ling was blasted several miles away by the explosion, knocking down a large swath of trees on the ground.

"Damn it!"

"This Grandmaster is too powerful!"

"I'm no match for her!"

Jiang Ling scrambled to his feet, covered in dust and dirt, and continued to run, praying for his side's Grandmasters to come and rescue him quickly.

But at this moment, the battle between the two sides was extremely chaotic, and for the time being, no one could look after his side.

He could only continue to flee.

"Medusa, can you handle her?"

Jiang Ling asked Medusa, who was coiled around his neck.

Medusa shook her head, "I need to improve a bit more before I can defeat her!"

Alicia's entire body burned with raging flames, like a missile jet, chasing after Jiang Ling with a speed far greater than his.

Jiang Ling could only weave back and forth through the forest on the ground to evade Alicia's attacks.

However, Alicia's fire attacks were too violent; a single fireball crashing down caused the sky to collapse and the earth to crack, turning an entire forest to ash.

Jiang Ling was burned and in a sorry state!

With no other choice, Jiang Ling finally fled toward the sea.

Arriving at the seaside, Jiang Ling leaped and plunged directly into the ocean.

In the ocean, her fire-type ability wouldn't be able to exert as much power, right?

However, Jiang Ling still underestimated the Seventh-tier Grandmaster!

Alicia, having brewed her attack for a long time in mid-air, sent a giant fire Dragon diving directly from the sky into the sea.

In an instant, the seawater began to boil.

The fire Dragon was completely unaffected in the water, opening its maw and lunging fiercely at Jiang Ling!

Jiang Ling was almost scared to death!

If this fire Dragon reached him, his life would likely be forfeit!

His entire body flashed with purple Divine Thunder, erupting with its greatest power, and collided with the opponent's fire Dragon.

Boom!

Jiang Ling was blasted deep into the ocean floor by the explosion.

He was covered in injuries from head to toe, feeling excruciating pain.

Since he began to Cultivate, he had never suffered such a severe injury!

The strength of a Seventh-tier Grandmaster was simply too terrifying!

But just at this moment, suddenly, a powerful force erupted from the seabed.

It was a power of Law, seemingly piercing through time and space, arriving in the modern era from the vicissitudes of the ancient past!

Rumble...

He was directly blasted out of the seabed by this powerful underwater force, and along with him, various deep-sea fish were also sent flying out!

In the sky, Jiang Ling saw Alicia standing in the air, her body wreathed in flames; it was as if Jiang Ling had been delivered right to her doorstep.

"Damn it!"

Jiang Ling couldn't help but curse out loud.

What kind of madness was this seabed experiencing!

He had finally managed to sink to the seabed to evade the pursuit of this Seventh-tier Grandmaster, only for the energy of the seabed to wash him right back!

Wasn't this trying to kill him?

Did the seawater know he had just obtained the ability to return from the dead, so it specifically wanted to let him die once?

Seeing Jiang Ling washed out, Alicia, contrary to expectations, did not pay attention to him, but instead looked deeply at the powerful energy on the seabed!

"The Underwater Secret Realm has appeared!"

Alicia muttered in English.

Following her words, an even more powerful energy appeared. Suddenly, a strange light appeared in the sky without warning, looking like a giant crack, emanating a mysterious and ancient aura.

The edges of the crack shimmered with colorful halos, constantly flowing and interweaving, as if they were a tapestry of the Universe.

Within the light, a low and distant rumbling could be faintly heard, as if it were a call from the ancient past.

Under the illumination of the light, the sea surface shimmered with strange colors—blue, green, and purple interweaving to form a magnificent painting.

The surrounding schools of fish were attracted by this strange spectacle, swimming around the light as if performing a mysterious pilgrimage.

Both sides, who had been engaged in battle, now began to cease fire; the massive commotion made everyone look over!

"As expected, it was the Secret Realm you were after!"

On the Great Xia Nation side, a powerhouse snorted coldly.

"However, this belongs to our Great Xia Nation!"

"No one should even think about coveting it!"

...

High in the sky, Jiang Ling watched the suddenly appeared Secret Realm entrance and suddenly turned his body, diving straight in.

Entering the Secret Realm would be relatively easier to escape.

Whoosh!

Jiang Ling passed through the rippling Secret Realm entrance, and the next moment, he instantly appeared in a strange place.

Before him was a vast and boundless forest, with tall and ancient trees, their trunks so thick that it would take several people to encircle them.

The leaves displayed strange colors; some were as emerald green as jade, some as crimson as the sunset glow, and others shone like gold. Sunlight filtered through the dense branches and leaves, forming golden pillars of light, resembling dreamlike stage lights.

In the forest, exotic flowers and rare grasses grew everywhere. The flowers were as large as carriage wheels, their petals shimmering with colorful light when they bloomed, emitting an enchanting fragrance that attracted colorful butterflies and tiny hummingbirds to dance among the flowers.

In the bushes, strange creatures shuttled back and forth from time to time; some resembled unicorns but had transparent wings; others looked like small rabbits but had eyes as brilliant as gemstones.

Jiang Ling looked at the scenery before him and let out sighs of amazement.

This was the most beautiful Secret Realm he had ever seen!
