193: The Secret Realm Arrives The Second Wild Beast
One day passed quickly.
In the Eastern Sea Region, a thunderous sound suddenly boomed.
The thunder reverberated, piercing through ten thousand miles of Void Realm, and from the depths of the firmament, a majestic Divine Might permeated from the Void Realm.
At this moment, in the Eastern Sea Region, countless eyes looked towards the Void Realm.
In the depths of the Eastern Sea Region's Void Realm, a phantom resembling a Heavenly Palace could vaguely be seen manifesting.
The Heavenly Palace phantom illuminated thousands of miles of Void Realm.
The thunder echoed through the firmament, and countless Human Race and Yao Race members sensed it simultaneously.
Han Li was no exception.
Rushing out of the desolate island, Han Li revealed his ancient mystic key. At this moment, the ancient mystic key in his hand showed a strong reaction, pointing in a specific direction.
"It's open!"
His gaze fixed on the depths of the sea region's Void Realm, Han Li's eyes lit up.
The Ancient Mystic Realm had descended.
"Whoosh—"
With a flash of his figure, Han Li transformed into a purple lightning bolt, streaking across the Void Realm and disappearing into the firmament.
Traversing endless Void Realm, in a short while, Han Li arrived above a large island in the depths of the Eastern Sea Region.
This island, with a circumference of a thousand miles, was like a continent, situated in the ocean.
Stepping through the Void Realm, Han Li looked up at the sky. In the depths of the firmament, a gigantic Heavenly Palace phantom appeared in his sight.
The Aura was majestic.
The Heavenly Palace phantom emitted boundless Divine Might, and the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was dissipated by the Aura of the Heavenly Palace phantom.
The first moment he looked at the Heavenly Palace phantom, Han Li felt a strong sense of trepidation.
Though seemingly within reach, the Heavenly Palace felt as if it existed in another space-time.
The ancient mystic key on his body vibrated incessantly.
Han Li looked at the illusory Heavenly Palace. The Ancient Mystic Realm had just opened, and space-time was not yet very stable.
Only after it completely stabilized would it be possible to enter the Ancient Mystic Realm.
The Ancient Mystic Realm was a sealed, independent space-time. Though it appeared close, it was not actually right before his eyes.
Without an ancient mystic key, one could not enter it.
Han Li could feel the power of the phantom shrouding the Heavenly Palace phantom, which was the power of Heaven and Earth Law.
The Heaven and Earth Law was so powerful that it made him feel insignificant.
Even if it was merely a space-time opened by a Supreme Paragon, it was still not something he could contend with.
Gazing at the Heavenly Palace, Han Li vaguely seemed to see a towering figure existing deep within it.
However, it was only a fleeting sensation, and this feeling quickly vanished.
The thunderous roars continued, and the Heavenly Palace grew more solid, its space-time channel gradually stabilizing.
And just at this moment, the sound of rushing air suddenly erupted in the distance.
Han Li instantly looked up.
In the depths of the Void Realm, several long rainbows streaked through the air, their light dazzling and brilliant.
In an instant, they traversed an infinite distance and arrived.
The divine light converged, revealing their true forms.
"Bai Qiong!"
Han Li's gaze narrowed as he looked at one of them.
Three Divine Hidden Realm magnates, and one of them was Bai Qiong of the Tianxin Sect.
Han Li did not recognize the other two. Although he had stayed at the Tianxin Sect for three days, Han Li did not know much about the other magnates of the Tianxin Sect.
"Daoist Han!"
Bai Qiong's voice rang out, and with a single step, he arrived directly beside Han Li.
The other two magnates also came forward.
Their Auras could be clearly perceived. One green-robed old man was even a Divine Hidden Realm Perfection existence.
And the other white-robed strong man, like Bai Qiong, had a Divine Treasury Late Stage Cultivation.
"Daoist Bai." Han Li cupped his hands and also nodded to the other two, acknowledging their presence.
Bai Qiong had a smile on his face, but after sensing Han Li's Aura, the smile on his face froze.
"Divine Treasury Middle Stage!"
Looking at Han Li, Bai Qiong's pupils contracted.
His Aura was profound; he could confirm that Han Li's Cultivation had already reached the Divine Treasury Middle Stage.
A month ago, Han Li was still Divine Treasury Early Stage, but now he had reached Divine Treasury Middle Stage.
Taking a deep breath, Bai Qiong recovered and, looking at Han Li, said, "It's only been a month, and Daoist Han has already made a Breakthrough to Divine Treasury Middle Stage. Congratulations!"
"Hmm?"
Hearing this, the other two magnates' gazes narrowed as they looked at Han Li.
"Han had already reached his limit before, it was just a natural progression," Han Li said with a smile.
"Who are these two Fellow Daoists?" Han Li changed the subject, looking at the two beside Bai Qiong.
"Qingfeng, Xu Hong!"
The two spoke simultaneously, announcing their names.
Han Li nodded, acknowledging their greeting.
And just at this moment, the sound of rushing air came from the horizon again.
Several long rainbows descended from a distance.
Han Li's gaze swept over them, and his eyes narrowed.
He had seen the two people who arrived; they were Xing Jiansheng, whom he had met before, and another purple-robed old man.
Divine Treasury Perfection Cultivation.
Their figures, like streaks of light, cut through the Void Realm and quickly arrived not far from the group.
Standing in the Void Realm, their gazes met, and a hint of surprise flashed in Xing Jiansheng's and the purple-robed old man's eyes.
"It's you. Not bad, to be able to safely escape from Lord Tianyin's hands, truly remarkable."
Looking at Han Li, Xing Jiansheng's voice rang out.
And hearing this, Bai Qiong and the other two's expressions suddenly changed. They looked at Han Li, their eyes filled with astonishment.
Escaped from Lord Tianyin's hands?!!
Bai Qiong looked at Han Li, and a tumultuous wave surged in his heart.
A top magnate of the Yuanshen Realm, and a Divine Treasury Early Stage—the gap was not insignificant.
How did he do it?!!
Han Li's gaze was calm, showing no ripples, but a hint of Killing Intent had already arisen in his heart.
Looking at Xing Jiansheng, Han Li remained as still as a mountain, but in his heart, he had already begun to scheme. If there was an Opportunity in the Ancient Mystic Realm, he would definitely not let it go.
These two were also on his list.
If he had a chance to act, he would kill them.
"Daoist Han, do you have a grudge with Lord Tianyin?" Bai Qiong recovered and asked via Dharma power transmission.
"Just a small friction," Han Li replied via transmission.
Hearing this, Bai Qiong's heart skipped a beat.
Looking at Han Li, the tumultuous waves in his heart had still not subsided.
To be able to escape from Lord Tianyin's hands, this strength was not just ordinary powerful.
Yuanshen versus Divine Treasury was a complete crushing situation.
Even a Divine Treasury Perfection could only barely contend a little.
He knew this old ghost very well; once he made a move, he almost never left anyone alive. The "small friction" in Han Li's mouth probably meant a "life-and-death battle"!
"What's your name?"
Xing Jiansheng stepped forward, looking at Han Li, his eyes filled with curiosity.
The purple-robed old man behind him also followed closely, looking at Han Li.
"None of your business!"
Han Li uttered four words, his expression indifferent.
Hearing this, the smile on Xing Jiansheng's face immediately froze.
His handsome face instantly darkened.
Bai Qiong and the others beside him looked at Han Li in astonishment.
These two also had a grudge?!!?
The same thought arose in the hearts of Bai Qiong and the others.
From the looks of it, it was most likely true.
"Very well. When we reach the Ancient Mystic Realm, I hope you can still maintain this attitude." Xing Jiansheng's gaze was cold, his changing expression returned to normal, suppressing the anger in his heart.
Han Li's expression remained unchanged, as if he hadn't heard anything.
Xing Jiansheng glanced at him, then turned and went to the other side.
"Daoist Han, this is Xing Kongtian's son, the future successor of the Spirit God Sect." Watching Xing Jiansheng leave, Bai Qiong reminded him via Dharma power transmission.
"What does the successor of the Spirit God Sect have to do with me?" Han Li said faintly.
Bai Qiong: "..."
Hearing this, he stopped speaking.
Although he didn't know which force Han Li came from, being able to escape from Lord Tianyin's hands gave him enough confidence.
If he wasn't a native of the East Sea, then offending him didn't seem to matter too much.
Although the Spirit God Sect was powerful, it wouldn't easily target a God Realm magnate.
And he was an existence close to a top magnate.
Han Li stood in the Void Realm, his gaze fixed on the Heavenly Palace.
The thunder continued, and the Heavenly Palace channel gradually stabilized.
Only after it was completely stable could one use the ancient mystic key to enter the Ancient Mystic Realm.
And as time passed, more and more magnates and Supreme beings gathered around the island's Void Realm.
In addition to the Human Race, there were also Yao Race magnates.
The situation in the East Sea was different from the North Sea. Although there were conflicts between the Yao Race and the Human Race, it had not reached the point of outright killing upon meeting.
The East Sea Yao Race, although not a single entity, had very powerful divided forces, even surpassing the three top forces of the East Sea Human Race.
There were dozens of Yao Sovereigns who came.
They stood separately in a corner of the Void Realm.
Han Li's gaze swept over them, also remembering these Yao Sovereigns in his heart.
Looking at these Yao Sovereigns, a bold idea sprouted in his mind.
Perhaps he could kill all these Yao Sovereigns in the Ancient Mystic Realm.
If he wiped them all out, his strength would greatly increase, perhaps even allowing him to easily achieve the seventh stage of the True Devil Body.
Ninety percent of these Yao Sovereigns were Divine Hidden Realm Yao Sovereigns.
There were more than twenty Divine Treasury Perfection Yao Sovereigns.
If he could deal with them, then relying on the blood and essence of the Yao Sovereigns, his Ten Thousand Tribulations True Devil Art would also advance by leaps and bounds.
The Ancient Mystic Realm was the best battlefield; it wasn't impossible for them to die here.
In a Supreme Secret Realm, no one could guarantee that no accidents would occur.
However, although he thought so in his heart, everything still had to be decided according to the actual situation.
If these Yao Sovereigns joined forces, he wouldn't be able to withstand them.
To kill them individually, he would also have to ensure that no one was left alive. If he made even a small mistake, he might repeat the escape from the North Sea... The Heavenly Palace's space-time channel became increasingly stable, and more and more Yao Race magnates arrived, as did many Human Race magnates.
The scene of them surrounding the island's Void Realm was spectacular.
However, so far, Han Li had not seen any top magnates of the Yuanshen Realm appear.
There were more than two hundred Human Race and Yao Race magnates combined, but not a single top magnate of the Yuanshen Realm had appeared.
This made him feel strange.
The Ancient Mystic Realm did not have a rule restricting Yuanshen Realm cultivators from entering.
But so far, not a single one had appeared.
"Whoosh—!!"
From the depths of the firmament, a faint light, like lightning, streaked across the Void Realm and descended.
A majestic Divine Might spread, revealing its true form.
Looking at this figure, Han Li's heart trembled.
This person was none other than Lord Tianyin.
He was also the first top magnate to arrive.
"Lord Tianyin!"
Seeing Lord Tianyin's figure, the expressions of many Human Race and Yao Race magnates changed.
Around the Void Realm where he stood, a blank area automatically appeared.
A Yuanshen magnate, his strength surpassed theirs by more than just a little.
Many Yao Race and Human Race magnates' eyes showed strong apprehension.
When Han Li's gaze swept over, Lord Tianyin seemed to sense it too, and his cloudy eyes also looked at him.
However, in front of many magnates, Lord Tianyin did not make a move, only smiled.
But within Lord Tianyin's smile, Han Li could feel the Killing Intent hidden beneath it.
Lord Tianyin had already developed Killing Intent towards him.
It was just that with so many magnates present, it was inconvenient to act.
If they encountered each other in the Ancient Mystic Realm, that would be a different story.
"Kid, I hope we can still meet in the Ancient Mystic Realm." At this moment, Lord Tianyin's voice reached Han Li's ears.
Hearing this, Han Li's heart tensed, but he remained outwardly calm.
After opening the second Divine Treasury and achieving the Divine Treasury Middle Stage, his Kun Peng Transformation Art had also become even more powerful.
Even if he couldn't defeat Lord Tianyin, escaping would still be an easy matter for him.
"Daoist Han, you still need to be extra careful. Lord Tianyin is a vengeful person; if he targets you, it will be very troublesome."
Bai Qiong's voice transmitted to his ear.
"Thank you for the reminder, Fellow Daoist. Han will be careful." Han Li nodded slightly and transmitted a reply.
Seeing Han Li's composed demeanor, Bai Qiong said no more, shifting his gaze towards the Heavenly Palace... "Rumble—!!!"
A deafening thunderclap exploded from within the Heavenly Palace, and with this colossal thunderous sound, the illusory Heavenly Palace completely solidified, and a massive space-time tunnel appeared before everyone's eyes.
"It's ready."
A Human Race magnate spoke, his expression joyful. The next second, he moved, directly heading towards the space-time tunnel.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, the moment this Human Race magnate touched the space-time tunnel, a brilliant golden light immediately erupted – the light of the ancient mystic key.
Wrapped in golden light, this Human Race magnate disappeared into the space-time tunnel in an instant.
The other magnates recovered and flew towards the space-time tunnel simultaneously.
The ancient mystic key radiated light, and one by one, the magnates' figures successively entered and disappeared into the space-time tunnel.
"Sizzle—!"
Han Li's figure moved, instantly transforming into a flash of lightning, directly disappearing into the Void Realm. The next moment, he also arrived before the space-time tunnel. The ancient mystic key vibrated, emitting a strong golden light that enveloped his entire body. His body instantly plunged into the dark space-time tunnel, vanishing from sight.
The other magnates also recovered and rushed towards the Ancient Mystic Realm's space-time tunnel.
They entered the Ancient Mystic Realm under the protection of the ancient mystic key.
Without the ancient mystic key, it would be impossible to withstand the pervasive terrifying Law power.
Even a Yuanshen magnate couldn't do it.
Nearly two hundred magnates entered the Ancient Mystic Realm's space-time tunnel in almost an instant.
And this was just the beginning; even more people possessing ancient mystic keys were continuously rushing towards this place.
The Ancient Mystic Realm lasts for a month. As long as one enters within this duration, there will be no problem... Lightning flashed, and thunder rumbled.
Deafening thunderclaps continuously echoed. This place seemed like an area where lightning crisscrossed.
The swamps on the ground were covered in lightning, like Hell.
In the air, visible lightning exploded, yet the trees in the lightning zone were completely unaffected, as if they were one with the lightning.
In the gloomy Void Realm, a figure fell from the Void Realm, plunging into the damp ground swamp. As lightning streaked through, a figure in a green robe rose from the lightning-covered swamp.
It was Han Li.
Having passed through the space-time tunnel, Han Li officially entered the Ancient Mystic Realm.
Looking around, this place was filled with lightning, like a lightning domain.
The electric light in the clouds seemed endless, continuously releasing destructive currents.
However, his Physical Body could easily withstand these currents, so it wasn't a big problem.
Scanning the surrounding environment, Han Li stepped out of the damp swamp and stood on a patch of dry land.
The trees here were all a hundred zhang tall, towering ancient trees that blocked out the sun.
"The gravity here is indeed very strong, at least a hundred times that of the outside."
Standing on the dry land of the swamp, Han Li could feel the change in Heaven and Earth gravity.
A hundredfold gravity amplification.
The powerful gravity could crush an Innate Early Stage Martial Artist alive.
The Heaven and Earth gravity was exceptionally strong.
Even his Physical Body felt very uncomfortable.
Han Li estimated that with the Heaven and Earth gravity here, even the Peak of the Acquired Realm would be unable to fly in the air; only the God Realm could fly.
Moreover, the speed would be vastly different compared to the outside.
However, Han Li had already known about this situation in advance, so he was prepared and not too surprised.
The Ancient Mystic Realm is a Secret Realm space-time created by an extremely ancient star.
Therefore, the Heaven and Earth gravity here is completely different from the outside.
The scope is vast.
It's practically impossible to fully explore the Ancient Mystic Realm in a month.
Entering the Ancient Mystic Realm is also completely random. Besides the remaining Restrictions, the greatest danger is the desolate beasts.
According to the information he had, desolate beasts are powerful and difficult to kill.
And desolate beasts are not Vicious Beasts or Yao Beasts; it's a general term.
There are humanoid desolate beasts and desolate beasts that maintain their beast form. Inside desolate beasts, there are desolate seeds. Desolate beasts are not only powerful, but the desolate seeds within them can assimilate other Human Race and Yao Race members into desolate beasts.
Injecting a portion of the desolate seed within them completes the assimilation. Once assimilated, one can never hope to leave the Ancient Mystic Realm, becoming completely a guardian of the Ancient Mystic Realm, a monster that only knows slaughter.
This is the terror of desolate beasts.
Even God Realm magnates must be careful; otherwise, if they encounter an extremely powerful desolate beast, even a God Realm magnate cannot escape the fate of being assimilated.
And the terrifying point is that becoming a desolate beast means being transformed. Without external factors to kill them, their lifespan is far greater than outside.
A Divine Aperture Realm desolate beast can live for over a thousand years.
And the price for this is being transformed by the desolate seed, becoming a desolate beast.
"The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi here is indeed very powerful..."
With each breath, besides feeling the powerful gravity here, Han Li also felt the terrifying Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
The entire Ancient Mystic Realm is a superb Cultivate Holy Land.
But to Cultivate here, one must become a desolate beast. However, this price is probably something no one is willing to pay.
After all, becoming a desolate beast means becoming a slave to slaughter.
Looking around, Han Li calmed his mind and focused, his Divine Sense probing the surroundings. Besides the powerful Heaven and Earth gravity, the suppression of Divine Sense here was also very terrifying.
Even his Divine Sense could only probe a hundred-mile radius.
The suppression was also very severe.
However, the impact wasn't that great; a hundred-mile range was sufficient for probing.
Even with the powerful Heaven and Earth gravity suppression, his Kun Peng Transformation Art was enough to easily defeat all Divine Treasury magnates.
After probing the surroundings, Han Li pondered for a moment and then headed towards the depths of the towering ancient trees.
He stepped into the sky, flying directly into the air.
The purpose of entering the Ancient Mystic Realm was, firstly, to seek Treasure Trove, which depended on Opportunity. Secondly, he also aimed to hunt desolate beasts.
Only the Qi of slaughter could allow his strength to rapidly ascend.
As long as he killed enough and accumulated enough Qi and vital blood, his strength could be greatly improved.
Flying through the air, Han Li looked at the endless, sprawling forest, which seemed to have no end.
Lightning exploded and streaked through the air, but these bolts of lightning, upon approaching him, were directly devoured by the Tribulation Marks within his body.
Not only did they not injure him, but due to continuous absorption, they slowly strengthened his Physical Body.
Though slow, every little bit helps.
In a short while, Han Li traversed a thousand li, yet still hadn't left this lightning-filled area.
Towering ancient trees grew, blocking out the sun. Han Li continued forward, while also probing the situation within the forest.
"Roar—!!"
Suddenly, a roar erupted from the lightning forest, a terrifying Aura burst forth, the Void Realm trembled, and a black light shot out from the lightning forest, directly towards Han Li.
"Buzz—!"
The moment the black light approached, golden light erupted around Han Li, blocking the attack.
Then, a figure shot out from the lightning forest, appearing before Han Li.
It was a woman.
But she was disheveled, with blood-red eyes, radiating Killing Intent, completely devoid of reason.
She exuded the Aura of the Human Race, yet a unique Aura coexisted.
"Desolate beast!"
Looking at the woman, Han Li instantly perceived that she had been assimilated, becoming a desolate beast monster.
She radiated Killing Intent, her eyes long devoid of sentience, her gaze like that of a wild beast.
She had become a monster that only knew slaughter.
"Divine Aperture Early Stage..."
Sensing the Aura, Han Li could clearly perceive the cultivation of this "desolate beast" before him.
A majestic God Realm magnate, yet now an assimilated member of the desolate beasts. Han Li had to admit the perversity of this Supreme Paragon.
A mere ruin created by him could turn a God Realm magnate into a killing machine.
A Supreme Paragon, a God among men, this was definitely not an empty title.
"Ho ho..."
The woman let out a strange growl. The next second, her hands moved, blood-colored Divine Light bloomed, transforming into a terrifying blood claw that directly attacked Han Li.
Completely fearless of death.
And just as the blood claw approached Han Li, a dazzling sword light erupted, directly obliterating the blood claw.
"Boom!!"
With a flash, Han Li landed a punch on the woman's chest, directly exploding her chest, and her body crashed into the forest like a meteor.
The ground shook.
However, the next second, the desolate beast woman, whose chest was pierced by Han Li's punch, flew into the air directly. Blood-colored Divine Light bloomed, condensing a terrifying beast shadow that attacked.
"This vitality is indeed abnormally tenacious." Han Li clicked his tongue, looking at the attacking beast shadow Divine Ability. The next second, sword light flashed, a Divine Sword manifested, and a single sword strike obliterated the beast shadow Divine Ability, tearing through the Void Realm and directly severing the desolate beast woman's head.
