85: Secret realm, physical body experience

The Tang Sect Elders, including Elders from other forces, were just about to inquire with the Zhuge family.

Then they saw Zhuge Yuan leading his own bewildered clansmen, following the crowd, and plunging into that spatial rift.

…The scene shifted.

Inside the Hidden Venerable Secret Realm.

The world spun!

Stars shifted!

When Lin Fan opened his eyes again, he found himself in a vast primeval forest.

Ancient trees blocked out the sun.

A faint scent of blood permeated the air.

“This teleportation is still random.” Lin Fan frowned slightly, but he wasn't flustered.

He slowly took out a Jade Slip from hisPregnant, which his Master, Lu Yuchen, had personally refined, and infused his magical power into it.

“Ke'er, Huohuo, Nanny, can you hear me?”

“Using the highest and most prominent mountain Peak in your respective locations as a reference, report your approximate positions, and we will rendezvous as soon as possible!”

Soon, three responses came from within the Jade Slip.

Ling Ke'er was closest to him, only a few tens of miles away.

Xiao Huohuo and Nanny were teleported to another area, but fortunately, they were not far from each other.

Having confirmed their positions, the four no longer hesitated and sped towards their agreed-upon reference points.

With their speed, these mere tens of miles were but a moment's effort.

Lin Fan and Ling Ke'er were the first to meet at the top of a steep mountain Peak.

“Senior Brother!”

“Junior Sister.”

The two smiled at each other, everything unspoken.

However, they hadn't even had time for a few pleasantries.

“Awooo—!”

Suddenly, an earth-shattering roar echoed through the mountains!

Following that, the ground began to shake violently, and countless towering ancient trees were snapped!

A pack of dozens of huge Yao Beasts with green faces and tusks was rushing towards the mountain they were on!

Every Yao Beast exuded a terrifying aura comparable to a Martial Artist at Acquired Perfection!

“Innate Realm Yao Beasts?” Lin Fan raised an eyebrow, his face showing no fear whatsoever.

Ling Ke'er also narrowed her Phoenix eyes, the “Azure Luan Sword” bestowed by her Master already in her hand.

The two of them didn't even bother to go down the mountain, just looking down from above at the tide-like beast horde.

The moment the beast horde rushed to the foot of the mountain!

Lin Fan moved!

He didn't use any flashy Spells, simply leaping down from the mountain Peak!

Then, he threw a punch!

Boom!

The power of one punch seemed to stir the mighty momentum of heaven and earth, and a visible golden fist Qi swept out!

Those Innate Yao Beast groups, which would be a headache for any ordinary small Sect in Qing Province, were as fragile as paper in front of this punch!

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

A series of dull explosions!

The first dozen Yao Beasts, unable to even let out a scream, had their bodies explode into a mist of blood, as if they had been directly hit by a siege hammer!

Ling Ke'er also attacked at the same time.

She didn't even bother to draw her sword.

She simply pointed her fingers like a sword and gently slashed at the beast horde below.

A green Sword Qi, condensed from the Mystic Maiden Heart Sutra's magical power, quietly cut out.

That Sword Qi seemed gentle, but it contained an unyielding sharpness!

“Pfft! Pfft!”

Wherever the Sword Qi passed, another dozen Yao Beasts were instantly cut in half at the waist!

The two moved swiftly, and in just a few breaths, this Innate beast horde, which was enough to annihilate any ordinary small Sect, was completely slaughtered!

Just as the last Yao Beast fell.

An anomaly suddenly occurred!

The bodies of those Yao Beasts, before their eyes, turned into pure energy torrents!

That energy was the True Qi Internal Energy that Martial Artists dreamed of.

The energy surged into Lin Fan and Ling Ke'er's bodies, vying for entry!

“Hmm?” Lin Fan raised an eyebrow.

That Martial Artist's True Qi Internal Energy, as soon as it entered his body, was firmly suppressed by his overwhelmingly domineering wood-attribute magical power!

That True Qi, like a mouse seeing a cat, trembled, not daring to act presumptuously at all, and could only obediently and automatically disperse into his body, beginning to temper his Physical Body!

“There's such a good thing?!” Lin Fan felt a surge of comfort throughout his body, and his already incredibly powerful Ancient Desolate Body actually improved by a tiny bit more!

Although faint, it had indeed become stronger!

Ling Ke'er, beside him, was also the same!

Her usually cool face now showed an undisguised look of surprise!

They cultivated the Immortal Dao, which inherently lacked in tempering the Physical Body.

But this Secret Realm could transform the slaughtered Yao Beasts into energy for tempering the Physical Body!

This was simply a “Beginner's Welfare Gift Pack” tailor-made for them!

“Huohuo! Nanny!”

Without thinking, Lin Fan immediately informed the other two of this astonishing discovery via the Jade Slip.

…On the other side.

Xiao Huohuo and Nanny had already met up.

When he heard Lin Fan's message, Xiao Huohuo's eyes, which always sparkled with brilliance, instantly lit up!

“Free Physical Body strength?!”

“This deal is a huge profit!”

He glanced at Nanny, who was boredly playing with small stones and hitting birds, and chuckled.

“Nanny Senior Sister, let's go, Junior Brother will take you to a fun place, there are many, many 'experience packs' that move by themselves there!”

“Is there food?” Nanny asked expectantly.

“Yes! As much as you want!”

And so.

The entire Hidden Venerable Secret Realm was completely ravaged.

Two groups, four fiends, began their brutal… “map clearing” journey.

…One day later.

Xiao Huohuo and Nanny encountered a group of people in a valley.

Leading them was Zhuge Qing, the Young Lord of the Zhuge family, who had successfully entered the Secret Realm and miraculously survived.

At this moment, he and several of his guards were surrounded by a group of Martial Artists with fierce auras.

“Zhuge Qing, if you know what's good for you, hand over the 'Thunder Essence Profound Wood Heart' you just obtained! Otherwise, today will be your death day!” A burly man holding a ghost-head saber snarled.

“Never!” Zhuge Qing's face was pale, but he still held on, desperately shielding the glowing piece of wood behind him.

This was a supreme treasure that could help a Great Grandmaster at Peak Breakthrough to the Heavenly Human Realm!

Their Zhuge family would rather fight to the last man than hand it over!

“You refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit! Brothers, attack! Kill the men, and the women…” The burly man's words were cut short.

“Cough, cough.” A light cough suddenly sounded.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, only to see two figures slowly walking in from the valley entrance.

One in black and red brocade, the other exquisitely delicate.

It was Xiao Huohuo and Lu Nuannuan.

“Who are you? How dare you meddle in our affairs?!” The burly man frowned and shouted sternly.

But no sooner had he spoken than some of the Martial Artists beside him, upon seeing who had arrived, especially when they saw Lin Fan, their faces instantly turned white!

“It's… it's them! It's those immortals!”

“Run!”

Some of the quicker ones, without thinking, turned and ran.

But there were also some stubborn ones who had never witnessed the god-like house-building methods outside Falling Star Valley.

“Why run?!”

“What kind of damn immortals! I think they're just putting on a show!”

A Martial Artist with a pointed mouth and monkey-like cheeks shouted loudly: “The fact that Lin Fan can enter this Secret Realm means his cultivation is at most that of a Great Grandmaster! There's nothing to be afraid of! They must have used some special treasure to create houses out of thin air!”

“Right! Big Brother is right!”

Those Martial Artists who had initially retreated, hearing these words, found them very reasonable, and one by one they stopped, their faces showing greed.

In their eyes, Lin Fan and the other three were four walking fat sheep!

Xiao Huohuo watched this dramatic scene, his eyelids twitching.

He couldn't even be bothered to move.

Nanny, beside him, pouted her small mouth, her small face filled with “unhappiness.”

“You're so noisy,” she said in a childish voice, and then her tiny figure instantly disappeared from its original spot.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

A series of dull explosions, accompanied by the crisp sound of bones breaking, and… pig-like wails, played a different kind of symphony in the valley.
