102: My Godly Father (Chapter 33)

As the words of the Jiang Family Old Ancestor fell, the massive portal shimmering with starlight fully stabilized.

An ancient, vast Aura emanated from within, connecting to a forgotten, primordial starry sky.

The Meteorite Plain Mystic Realm had opened.

Quan Yun blended into the crowd and stepped through the portal at the last possible moment.

Space shifted, and the stars moved.

In the next moment, he found himself in a bizarre and fantastical world.

There was no solid ground, only meteorites of varying sizes floating in the air; the large ones were like mountains, while the small ones could only fit a single person.

Countless beams of starlight fell from the unknown depths of the Void Realm, illuminating this space like a dream.

The moment he set foot there, Quan Yun felt a slight throb from the simple, ancient small tower lying dormant deep within his Sea of Consciousness.

His heart skipped a beat.

The movement of the small tower shocked him; there was something else in this Secret Realm attracting it.

Not only that, but Quan Yun had practiced the Revelation Chapter of the Sword Scripture, and he could indeed feel the Aura of the Sword Scripture within this Secret Realm.

The Jiang Family had not lied.

But this only made him more vigilant.

Without the slightest hesitation, while other prodigies were still marveling at the wondrous sight before them, his figure had already quietly vanished into the shadow of a massive meteorite, merging with the surrounding environment.

His experience from seven cycles of Reincarnation told him that this setup was aimed directly at him.

However, he was not afraid.

Within the Secret Realm, where prodigies competed for supremacy, he was confident he feared no one.

Outside the Secret Realm, he had his father, Quan Batian, to protect his path... A few days passed in a flash.

This Secret Realm truly lived up to its reputation as a treasure land jointly controlled by several ancient clans, containing countless opportunities.

In the core of a meteorite, Quan Yun found a 'Star Marrow Grass,' a plant long extinct in the outside world, which was enough to further refine his spiritual power cultivation.

Conflict was inevitable.

A Genius from a powerful orthodoxy had also set their sights on this Spiritual Plant.

Quan Yun wasted no words.

The struggle for Great Dao opportunities was inherently a life-and-death matter.

He only struck once with his sword.

After one strike, a bloody mark appeared on that Genius's forehead, and they fell unwillingly into the endless abyss below.

Having dealt with his opponent, Quan Yun collected the Star Marrow Grass and prepared to leave.

Suddenly, a sense of fatal crisis struck from behind.

Without thinking, he relied on instinct to drift several yards to the side.

Boom!

The meteorite he had been standing on was blasted to pieces by a powerful, earthy-yellow divine light.

Debris scattered everywhere.

A tall figure appeared not far away.

The newcomer had a powerful Aura, clearly a powerhouse of the Heavenly Spirit Realm, radiating a heavy pressure.

A Divine Body.

Quan Yun recognized him as a Divine Body Genius of the Jiang Family who had appeared at the previous grand gathering; his strength was quite impressive.

However, he had no grievances or enmity with this person, so why would the other party make such a lethal move?

"Your reactions are quite fast."

That Jiang Family Divine Body looked at Quan Yun indifferently, his eyes cold.

"Hand over the Sword Scripture you carry, and I can give you a quick death."

Quan Yun's heart sank.

As expected, they were after the Sword Scripture.

He thought no more, and the long sword in his hand slowly left its scabbard.

"If you want it, come and take it yourself."

"You're looking for death!"

The Jiang Family Divine Body shouted angrily, and the pressure of the Heavenly Spirit Realm exploded fully. With one step forward, even the void beneath his feet trembled.

He threw a punch, and the earthy-yellow divine light condensed again, transforming into a massive rock giant that roared as it moved to crush Quan Yun.

Quan Yun's cultivation was a whole major Realm weaker than his opponent's, but his expression remained unchanged.

The sword in his hand moved.

Thrust.

Slash.

They were still the two most basic forms from the General Outline of the Sword Scripture.

But in his hands, they turned the mundane into the miraculous.

The sword light was fine and dense, precisely cutting into every weak node where the rock giant's power circulated.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

A series of dense collision sounds rang out. Under Quan Yun's sword, that imposing rock giant was actually peeled away layer by layer until it finally disintegrated with a crash.

Relying on his profound sword path cultivation, Quan Yun managed to fight a Heavenly Spirit Realm Divine Body to a standstill.

The two were locked in a fierce struggle.

Just as Quan Yun found a flaw in his opponent and was about to counterattack, another even sharper killing intent struck from a tricky angle!

It was an arrow!

A golden arrow condensed from pure spiritual power, moving extremely fast!

Quan Yun's pupils shrank suddenly.

What incredible speed!

He forcibly retracted his move, twisting his body at a strange angle, narrowly dodging the heart-piercing arrow.

The golden arrow grazed his shoulder, drawing a trail of blood.

Intense pain shot through him.

Quan Yun's figure retreated a hundred yards. He clutched his shoulder, his face turning grim.

The hidden attacker revealed themselves.

It was another Heavenly Spirit Realm Divine Body, holding a massive golden bow—also a member of the Jiang Family!

Two Heavenly Spirit Realm Divine Bodies!

Quan Yun's heart skipped a beat.

He finally understood that this was a carefully planned ambush!

He couldn't worry about why the Jiang Family wanted him dead anymore.

One person was already difficult enough to handle; with two working together, he had absolutely no chance of winning.

Furthermore, who knew if there was a third or fourth waiting in the shadows?

The foundation of the ancient Jiang Family was far beyond what ordinary Grotto-Heaven Blessed Lands could compare to.

Quan Yun felt a sense of impending doom.

He had to leave immediately!

Without hesitation, he bit the tip of his tongue and his hands instantly formed a profound hand seal.

This was a life-saving secret technique his father, Quan Batian, had taught him before his departure.

This technique had no other effect except for one.

To boost speed!

"Trying to run? Too late!"

The two Jiang Family Divine Bodies clearly saw through Quan Yun's intention and simultaneously launched their strongest attacks. Two powerful forces came from the left and right, completely sealing off all of Quan Yun's escape routes.

However, Quan Yun's secret technique was already complete.

The spiritual power within his body burned at an incredible rate, and a piercing pain spread throughout his entire body.

This was his first time using this secret technique, and the price was not small.

But the effect was so great that even Quan Yun himself was shocked.

Buzz—!

His figure became blurred and faded on the spot, about to merge into the space.

In the next instant, just a fraction of a second before the two attacks landed on him, his figure completely vanished.

Boom!

The two forces collided, triggering a violent explosion that instantly annihilated a massive meteorite.

When the dust settled, there was no sign of Quan Yun.

The two Jiang Family Divine Bodies looked grim.

"He got away!"

"What eerie speed! After him!"

Meanwhile, in another meteorite belt thousands of miles away, Quan Yun's figure tumbled out in a wretched state. He spat out a mouthful of blood, his face deathly pale.

He didn't dare to linger. Enduring his injuries and the backlash of the secret technique, he moved again, fleeing deeper into the Secret Realm.
