174: The strong ones are coming, all for secret treasures

The powerful Honored Ones who came to the Secret Realm were, without exception, renowned veteran Honored Ones. When they first entered the Honored One Realm, almost no one doubted their ability to advance.

For various reasons, they have now become the strongest in their respective Domains, yet even now, they are still unable to achieve godhood.

It is clear how great a price one must pay to achieve godhood.

The pressure released by General Xian Zhen was suppressed by Ye Kong, which not only shocked General Xian Zhen but also made Cloud Immortal and Great Ferrying Buddha cast strange glances at Ye Kong.

General Xian Zhen was very displeased. Looking at Ye Kong's youthful appearance, how could he possess such strength?

Looking at the Young Miss next to him and the strong guards, they were only of Martial Emperor and Martial Saint strength.

General Xian Zhen was very curious. He stared at the Lin family's Young Miss, who was protected by everyone, and asked, "Who are you? State your name!"

Lin Yaer had just been oppressed by General Xian Zhen's pressure, feeling uncomfortable all over, and found it difficult to speak.

A Martial Emperor guard stepped forward and shouted, "How dare you! This is the territory of Jinan City, and this is the City Lord's daughter. Do not be rude!"

General Xian Zhen laughed three times upon hearing this.

"Ridiculous! You should know that on this continent, the strong are respected. Even the City Lord of Jin'an, what can he do to me?"

"Presumably, you also came here knowing that there are treasures hidden here, but I want to tell you, you are not qualified to participate in this treasure hunt at all!"

"If you know what's good for you, scram quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being merciless!"

General Xian Zhen became bolder after learning that these people were from the Lin family of Jinan City.

Because he knew very well that Jinan City, unlike Wuji City, did not have a god presiding over it, and with his cultivation, he had nothing to fear!

The guard was very angry and furiously said, "What? This is the territory of Jinan City. Why aren't we qualified to be here?"

"Are you going to rely on the prestige of you veteran strong ones and act superior to us?"

The veins on General Xian Zhen's forehead bulged, and his brows furrowed. Immediately after, he released an even more powerful pressure!

"Truly ignorant of death!"

The Martial Emperor guard was startled and quickly released True Qi to protect Lin Yaer.

However, how could a Martial Emperor withstand the pressure of an Honored One? Soon, the pressure bore down.

The Martial Saint guard also quickly stepped forward to resist the pressure.

However, even with all three guards together, it was still extremely difficult.

Seeing them resist his pressure, General Xian Zhen glared and released an even more powerful pressure.

For a moment, Killing Intent permeated the air. The guards seemed to see bloody scenes of battle on the battlefield, and General Xian Zhen's might spread.

The several guards struggled greatly, almost unable to resist, and were all bent over by General Xian Zhen's pressure.

Ye Kong couldn't stand it. He glared at General Xian Zhen, released Killing Intent, and instantly pushed General Xian Zhen's Killing Intent back.

"Such a petty trick dares to show off before an expert?"

Ye Kong sneered, followed by an even more powerful Killing Intent pressing towards General Xian Zhen.

General Xian Zhen's eyes widened. He had never expected that the young man in front of him could actually surpass him in Killing Intent!

No, this feeling, could it be Shura?

Just as General Xian Zhen and Ye Kong's Killing Intent were in a standoff, Cloud Immortal placed a hand on General Xian Zhen's shoulder.

From Cloud Immortal's hand, a cloud of mist instantly emerged, dispelling the Killing Intent of both Ye Kong and General Xian Zhen.

Ye Kong's eyes narrowed. This was the first time Ye Kong had seen such a technique.

He can actually dispel my Killing Intent?

General Xian Zhen turned around, looking at Cloud Immortal with great dissatisfaction, and said, "What are you doing? I was about to teach this ignorant brat a lesson. Why are you interfering?"

Cloud Immortal stroked his beard and chuckled.

He said, "The mysterious treasure is extremely dangerous. Since these Fellow Daoists have come, it means they are prepared for death. Why make things difficult for them?"

"Even if you don't bother them, they will eventually be killed by the Divine Artifact."

General Xian Zhen snorted upon hearing this.

Ye Kong's heart stirred. Could this treasure be a Divine Artifact?

Ye Kong directly asked, "This Honored One named Cloud Immortal, how can you be so sure that we will be killed by the Divine Artifact? Or do you know that this treasure is a Divine Artifact?"

Cloud Immortal chuckled, turned his head, and looked at Ye Kong with a condescending attitude.

He said, "Young man, don't be too arrogant. You haven't even done your homework on what this treasure is, and you dare to come here to seek it?"

Cloud Immortal then shook his head and continued, "I will mercifully tell you, the treasure here is called Demon-Sealing Soul-Devouring Slash, it is a Divine Artifact, not something ordinary people can master!"

Upon hearing the name of this blade, Ye Kong immediately felt a regal aura.

"A very good name, I think it suits my temperament!" Ye Kong murmured.

Cloud Immortal also frowned upon hearing this.

"A mere Fellow Daoist, also wanting to steal a Divine Artifact? Don't you know our reputation? If you do, why not leave quickly? Why seek trouble?"

General Xian Zhen also said at this moment, "Hmph, we still don't have the confidence to take down such a Divine Artifact. What are you, to dare speak such nonsense?"

Cloud Immortal then added, "Many Martial Saints have come to this Secret Realm forest. Even if you get the Divine Artifact, can you really get out of here?"

Ye Kong disdainfully curled his lips and said, "Mere Martial Saints, I don't even put them in my eyes. If you gentlemen are here to take the treasure, you can rely on your own abilities. If you want to kill and loot, don't blame me for being merciless!"

Cloud Immortal and General Xian Zhen exchanged a smile.

"Fellow Daoist, you have a big mouth!"

Lin Yaer had recovered at this point. Seeing these veteran strong ones look down on Ye Kong, she stepped forward and said, "Don't look down on people. There's nothing Brother Ye Kong wants that he can't get!"

The three supreme Honored Ones were all stunned.

Ye Kong?

This name sounds familiar, doesn't it?

Cloud Immortal asked in surprise, "Could it be Shura King Ye Kong, who defeated Long Ao in the Ten Thousand Clans Tournament?"

"He is now Asura Venerable!" Lin Yaer corrected.

The veteran strong ones were incomparably shocked.

It's actually Ye Kong!

The veteran strong ones, confident in their martial arts, disdained watching Kyoto TV and had never seen Ye Kong's appearance.

But they had heard of Ye Kong.

After all, he was the first in the Ten Thousand Clans Tournament, who didn't know, who wasn't aware?

That Ye Kong, who possesses powerful Shura power, no wonder my Killing Intent couldn't suppress his!

General Xian Zhen immediately became cautious.

Cloud Immortal was also very vigilant at this moment.

He scrutinized Ye Kong from head to toe, and finally sighed, "I didn't expect Ye Kong, at such a young age, to already be qualified to stand alongside us veteran strong ones!"

Now that the strong ones knew the young man in front of them was Ye Kong, they could no longer prevent Ye Kong from staying here.

General Xian Zhen was a little angry, but he couldn't make a Move against Ye Kong.

They had to conserve their strength and prepare to snatch the treasure; they couldn't waste their power on Ye Kong!

After knowing that the young man in front of them was Ye Kong, the Honored Ones sighed a few times and then fell silent.

Lin Yaer said, "Brother Ye Kong, let's ignore them. Getting the treasure is more important!"

Ye Kong nodded. During his conversation with these Honored Ones, he had already felt countless gazes fixed on their side.

It seems this treasure has attracted many people, and to contend for it, a fierce battle is inevitable.

Everyone waited there. Gradually, the forest became increasingly distorted.

But as soon as someone approached, the trees returned to their original state, as if they had never been distorted.

Ye Kong paid attention to the changes around the forest, while also being wary of other competitors around him who wanted to contend for the treasure.

Soon, one Void Realm wormhole after another appeared.

The dark, cavernous openings in the forest emitted a terrifying glow, as if to draw people in.

Ye Kong observed carefully, but still couldn't see what was inside the holes.

The Void Realm Gate, unless one masters the corresponding Cultivation Technique, or is a god, cannot be understood.

The Honored Ones were all on high alert.

Cloud Immortal held the ethereal power of the Dao, ready for battle.

General Xian Zhen, on the other hand, held a seven-foot spear, concentrating and holding his breath.

Great Ferrying Buddha was sitting on the ground at this moment, muttering incantations.

Although his posture was unclear, the flickering halo above his head seemed to indicate that he was also on guard.

Soon, the Void Realm Gate began to Move, gradually converging in one direction.

Countless Void Realm Gates merged into one, leaving only a single Void Realm Gate!

This Void Realm Gate gradually brightened from darkness, emitting a dazzling light.

Ye Kong knew this must be the entrance to the Secret Realm where the mysterious treasure was located!

Ye Kong immediately turned to Lin Yaer and said, "Your strength is insufficient. Wait here for now. I'll be back!"

"Brother Ye Kong, be careful!"

"Don't worry!"

Ye Kong immediately got up, intending to enter the Void Realm Gate.

Suddenly, countless pressures bore down!

Many strong ones had appeared in the forest at some point, and even foreign races!

Everyone's strength varied, with no lack of Martial Saint strong ones among them!

These strong ones swarmed forward, rushing into the Void Realm Gate, vying for the lead.

Cloud Immortal and other veteran strong ones also instantly flew into the Void Realm Gate at this moment.

Ye Kong stepped on the ground, activated Thousand Mile Swift Travel, and at the last moment, rushed into the Void Realm Gate!

The Void Realm Gate glowed brightly, and after Ye Kong entered, it suddenly disappeared from its original spot.

"Brother Ye Kong!"

Lin Yaer chased a few steps in the direction where Ye Kong disappeared, but the forest had completely returned to calm at this moment, as if no Void Realm Gate had ever appeared.

"Young Miss, it's not advisable to stay here long. Let's leave first!" Several guards stepped forward to request.

As soon as Ye Kong entered the Secret Realm, he immediately saw the vast land beneath his feet, spanning tens of millions of miles.

In the distance, there was also a gloomy place, emitting terrifying Evil Qi.

A layer of dark clouds enveloped the sky, with extremely heavy Yin Qi, sending shivers down one's spine.

Many strong ones all rushed towards that gloomy place at this moment, but then their screams immediately followed.

Several terrifying ripples emanated from the gloomy place, instantly sweeping away the strong ones who had just launched the first wave of attack.

The strong ones hadn't even released any Moves before they were injured by the ripples and suppressed by the mysterious power of this Secret Realm!

Ye Kong was startled. This gloomy place could easily suppress Martial Saint strong ones. This treasure in this terrifying Secret Realm would probably be even more difficult to deal with than the Demon Lotus Sword!
