Chapter 61

Chen Chang'an's spiritual senses spread out as he paid attention to his surroundings while quickly passing through the coffin of the god of death to absorb everyone's spiritual energy.

Soon, his cultivation soared again, like a volcano erupting within him, finally reaching the Fifth Level of the Heavenly King Realm!

"Fifth Level of the Heavenly King Realm, I now have the confidence to slay those three Tenth Level Heavenly King Realm old men again!"

Chen Chang'an's eyes gleamed as he glanced in the direction of the Great Zhou Kingdom's prodigy camp. After confirming there were no abnormalities, he quickly left.

His goal was very clear: the remaining dozens of people from the other three major forces!

"Hmph, since you are so ruthless and want to kill all the prodigies of the Great Zhou Kingdom, this young master doesn't mind burying all of you here!"

Chen Chang'an whispered softly, like a ghost hidden in the forest.

——

Dong Lianxing and the others had no intention of leaving so soon.

After all, the spiritual energy here was dense, making it a holy land for cultivation. If they left after just half a month, it would be a huge waste.

So they gathered together, set up a camp, and strengthened their defenses.

"Hmph, Chen Chang'an, you despicable scoundrel, this palace will grind your bones to dust!"

In the camp, Dong Lianxing roared in anger.

Nan Hong and Zhao Ziyang's faces were also extremely grim.

They had been confident in burying the Great Zhou Kingdom's prodigies here, but unexpectedly, they were betrayed by Chen Chang'an!

Especially for the people of Nanming Kingdom, most of their prodigies were dead!

Only Nan Hong, the crown prince, and his family's guardian elder remained.

"Currently, we need to send someone out to inform your kings and my father about the situation here."

In the field, only Zhao Ziyang remained calm, quickly proposing a solution.

After all, the array formation here was special, and ordinary sound transmission stones could not be used.

"Right, let my father send more people in! We must kill that Chen Chang'an!"

Dong Lianxing gritted his teeth, his gaze sweeping over the prodigies present.

Instantly, the prodigies shrank back, lowering their heads.

None of them wanted to leave the secret realm at this moment, as leaving would make it hard to return.

Moreover, who could guarantee that Chen Chang'an wouldn't intercept and kill them on the way out?

"Sending them out would just be sending them to their deaths."

Zhao Ziyang continued, his sharp gaze sweeping over the crowd, finally landing on the guardian elder of the Nanming Kingdom.

Nan Hong was taken aback, "Zhao Ziyang, what do you mean?"

"Let your guardian elder go out to send the message." Zhao Ziyang said calmly, "I know that your elder specializes in speed. It was evident when he carried you to escape earlier."

Dong Lianxing also nodded quickly, "Brother Nan, you don't want us all to die here, do you?

If we send those prodigies out, who can stand up to Chen Chang'an?

Only your elder, with his speed, can definitely get out quickly!"

As he spoke, he also looked at the guardian elder of the Nanming Kingdom.

The elder was a thin, wiry figure with a sharp gaze, and faint lightning flickered around him as he moved.

Nan Hong was taken aback, but he quickly agreed, as this was indeed the only solution.

So he looked at the elder.

The elder also nodded and disappeared on the spot.

......

At the entrance of the secret realm.

Although the spiritual energy here was not as dense as inside the secret realm, the spiritual energy overflowing from the transmission vortex still made it more concentrated than any other place in Dongzhou.

Apart from the five major forces, countless people were sitting in meditation here to cultivate.

Buzz!

At this moment, someone noticed a rumble coming from the transmission vortex, as if someone was about to come out.

"What's going on? Someone is coming out?"

"It's only been half a month, did something major happen inside?"

"Impossible, those are the strongest prodigies of the entire Dongzhou, what could have happened?"

......

People in the field were discussing heatedly.

But Dong Yinglai, Nan Zhan, and Zhao Tianwei exchanged glances, a hint of barely noticeable joy flashing in their eyes.

They thought that Chen Chang'an and the others had probably already perished inside the secret realm.

The Great Zhou Kingdom, led by Ji Wentian, Ji Xuangu, and Duanmu Cang, looked at the entrance vortex with puzzled expressions.

Buzz—

At this moment, a figure in a gray robe, with half his face covered, appeared.

As soon as he appeared, he immediately went to Nan Zhan and whispered something to him.

"What... what?"

In an instant, Nan Zhan's face turned as ugly as if he had eaten shit.

This commotion made everyone look at them, confused.

Dong Yinglai narrowed his eyes, slightly frowning.

Nan Zhan looked at him, then turned and walked into the spaceship.

Seeing this, Dong Yinglai and Zhao Tianwei exchanged glances and quickly flew over, entering the other party's cabin.

Soon, angry fluctuations could be heard from inside.

Not long after, the three of them came out together.

They all bowed respectfully to Mo Hai, who was sitting in meditation on the deck of another spaceship.

Dong Yinglai, with a grim face, said loudly,

"Lord Swordmaster, the prodigies of our three forces encountered a nest of King-level spirit beasts inside the secret realm. The prodigies were ambushed and suffered heavy casualties!

So we request permission to enter and bring out the injured."

Nan Hong also looked anxious, "We humbly request Lord Swordmaster's approval!"

"Lord Swordmaster, we know that entering like this violates the rules!

But, these are the future prodigies of our human race, an incalculable loss!"

Zhao Tianwei also spoke anxiously.

Rustle—

As their words spread, the crowd was immediately in an uproar.

King-level spirit beasts?

An ambush?

That's too terrifying!

There is already a physical gap between humans and spirit beasts. A Tenth Level Heavenly King Realm expert might not be a match for a Tenth Level Heavenly King Realm spirit beast!

Moreover... from their words, it seems to be a nest, not just one!

No wonder they are so anxious!

Mo Hai opened his eyes and exchanged a deep look with Zhao Tianwei.

He and this person were old friends, how could he not know that the other was trying to pull a fast one?

However... he also didn't like Chen Chang'an, so he decided to turn a blind eye.

"Alright, we must do our best to ensure the safety of our human race's prodigies!

Moreover, after entering, you must quickly bring out the injured for treatment."

After some thought, Mo Hai still agreed.

But he also warned them not to go too far.

"Wait a moment!"

At this moment, the Great Zhou Kingdom felt something was amiss.

But before Ji Wentian could continue, Dong Yinglai interrupted him, "Lord Swordmaster, for fairness, I suggest the Great Zhou Kingdom also send someone in. If the Great Zhou Kingdom's ruler wants to enter, I have no objections."

This statement completely blocked Ji Wentian's objections.

"Great Zhou Kingdom's ruler, do you have any objections?" Mo Hai looked at Ji Wentian and asked calmly.

"I have no objections."

Ji Wentian said.

Thus, the four forces, accompanied by their rulers, ancestors, and ten Tenth Level Heavenly King Realm guardian elders, entered the secret realm.

Dong Yinglai, Nan Hong, and Zhao Tianwei exchanged glances, and their eyes all burst with intense killing intent.
