The elders of the Heaven Sect, the Dao Seeking Sect, and the Yaochi Holy Land occupied the north, south, east, and west directions respectively. They formed hand seals and formed arrays outside the secret realm. They acted as pillars and made the secret realm more stable.
“We’ll open up a safe passage for you. In order to prevent any changes in the secret realm, we’ll keep guard here.”
Although Mo Jianming disdained being associated with this group of people, there were also disciples of his Sword Sect among the people who had entered, so he also helped.
With the protection of the seven great sects, it was no doubt an additional layer of protection. Apart from that, they also left a number of people around the secret realm to prevent people with bad intentions from causing trouble.
“But remember, if the jade pendant gets hot, you must come out in time. You must not stay behind in the realm.”
Just as Ye Xuan and the others were about to enter, an old voice came from the side.
“Wait a moment.”
Ye Xuan turned around and met a pair of dirty eyes, which hid countless sharp glints, making him shudder. He felt as if he had been seen through from head to toe.
That person was the great elder of the Dao Seeking Sect. He looked at the unfamiliar young man in front of him. For some reason, he felt a sense of familiarity, as if he had seen him somewhere before.
The people of the Tai Qing Sect were confused.
Ye Xuan, on the other hand, was extremely calm. He was sure that the great elder didn’t recognize him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so calm when he saw Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan asked, “May I ask what’s the matter, Elder?”
The great elder saw that Ye Xuan’s expression was normal and did not see anything unusual. He then slowly closed his eyes and said, “You may go.”
This sudden action confused the people around him, but they didn’t think too much about it. Nothing was more important than the secret realm in front of them.
Ye Xuan’s figure sank into the divine light and was devoured in the blink of an eye. He felt the world spinning, and when he opened his eyes again, there was no one around him. He was wrapped in a thick fog, almost to the point where he couldn’t see his fingers.
He could not help but frown as he called out, “Fifth Elder, Sixth Elder, are you guys there?”
In such a large place, only his echo could be heard, and there was no movement. It seemed that he had been separated from the people of the Tai Qing Sect.
“It’s indeed strange. Could it be that everyone was teleported to random locations?”
Fortunately, before entering the secret realm, Ye Xuan had bought a lot of good things, such as magic treasures, pills, talismans, and so on. He had given them all of these so that even if their cultivation was not high, they could still protect themselves.
The jade pendant in his hand flickered with a faint light, and a disdainful smile appeared on Ye Xuan’s face. He threw it away without thinking. He would not become a tool for the seven great sects.
What Ye Xuan didn’t know was that except for him, everyone from the Tai Qing Sect was together. They landed safely on the ground and did a headcount, only to find that Ye Xuan had disappeared.
On the other side, Ye Xuan was still fumbling forward in the thick fog. Since the scenery around him was exactly the same, he could only follow his gut feeling. ‘Speaking of which, is this place really related to Penglai?’ he thought.
He took out the Penglai Immortal Stone that he had stolen from the Misty Illusory Manor. It was extremely hot on the outside, but it was calm on the inside.
Suddenly, he felt like he was being watched. It was like someone was watching him in the dark. Ye Xuan turned around, but there was nothing behind him except for the white mist. It was like an illusion.
He sent his divine sense out and still didn’t find anything strange or any fluctuations of spiritual power.
Ye Xuan muttered to himself, “Am I really overthinking it?”
He didn’t realize that the white mist behind him was consciously merging together and following behind him sneakily.
This place was like a neverending maze. No matter where he went, it was all white mist. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t get out. He didn’t know if he was affected by the white mist.
Ye Xuan sent a message to the people of the Tai Qing Sect, but it was like a stone thrown into the sea. He couldn’t get in touch with them. His fingertips emitted a hot divine light, trying to disperse the white mist.
“Boom!”
The fiery red dragon charged forward like a meteor, exploding red flowers in the white mist. The path on the ground was also faintly visible. Ye Xuan didn’t have time to be happy for a second before the mist quickly closed again, and the path disappeared.
Almost at the same time, Ye Xuan felt a chill run down his back, and goosebumps rose all over his body. Almost instinctively, he lowered his head and rolled on the ground.
A huge monster stood behind him. Its entire body was wrapped in white mist, and its appearance could not be seen clearly. The giant claw landed exactly where Ye Xuan was.
That was close! The giant claw was so close to squashing him.
Ye Xuan’s expression was grave. When was this monster formed? He didn’t notice it at all, and it approached him without a sound.
Seeing that its attack had missed, the monster charged forward again. Although its body was huge, its movements were extremely mysterious, leaving only an afterimage in the air.
A terrifying pressure immediately spread out. If this monster’s rank was calculated according to cultivators, it was at least sky rank or above!
Ye Xuan mumbled something, and a crack suddenly appeared in the void. The ancient Heaven Flipping Seal fell from the sky, and mysterious runes and patterns circulated. They instantly enlarged countless times and covered the sky.
The number of spirit points in his body was countless times that of ordinary people. With a massive amount of spiritual energy injected into the Heaven Flipping Seal, even an ordinary magic weapon would have extraordinary power, let alone a divine weapon like this.
The monster seemed to have noticed something, and its movements became somewhat slow.
“Suppress!”
With almost no power to fight back, the monster was firmly suppressed by the Heaven Flipping Seal. Countless white veils of mist floated in the air, and Ye Xuan didn’t have time to breathe.
Right in front of his eyes, the white mist slowly gathered and formed a monster that was not much different from before.
“Roar!”
The monster let out an unknown roar, and Ye Xuan suddenly had a bad feeling.
More and more white mist seemed to be summoned by something, gathering around them and condensing into a figure.
One head, two heads, three heads…
