There were no more accidents along the way.

Although he had met a few disciples from other sects, Shangguan Xiaoyue and Tie Lang, the two of them in the distance, did not come forward. Of course, they were afraid of Shangguan Xiaoyue, who was already famous throughout Jincheng City.

They had also heard rumors of Tie Lang killing Qin Ke on the streets of Jincheng and getting the title of god of death. However, they had never seen it with their own eyes, so how could these proud young elites believe it? Thus, their attitude regarding this matter was practically one that scoffed disdainfully at, and they didn't even take it to heart. He thought it was just a rumor.

After all, the realm of the Iron Wolf True Martial Saint was there, and he did not even have the ability to release zhen qi outwards. How could he defeat a Spirit Master who could attack the opponent from more than two zhang away?

It was no wonder why these disciples were here. The gap between the two realms was as wide as the heaven and earth. Even a Genuine Force Warrior at the peak of the Genuine Force would find it extremely difficult to survive under the hands of a Spirit Martial Disciple, much less win in battle. It was not as if they had never experienced such things in the past, but since they had never personally experienced it, how could they believe that such a thing would happen to the Iron Wolf with its broken Dantian?

Someone did try.

Three of these people were already dead, while the other three were still upset, disappointed, jealous, and sighing …

Iron Wolf and Ji Hao had already left the prairie, running for about thirty to forty miles along a bare, black mountain range. The mountain range meandered and twisted, looking like a ten-stone prehistoric python lying on the ground.

Soon, a gray line as thick as a person's finger had appeared in the middle of the mountain ridge. It was as if someone had cut the entire valley in half with a sharp knife, causing the entire mountain ridge to split into two.

"We're right in front! Tie Lang, be careful. The closer you are, the more likely it is that someone will attack you and take your place! " Shangguan Xiaoyue said with a serious face.

"I know!"

The two figures, one golden and one black, swiftly dashed towards the gray line like flowing clouds and flowing water.

A neat and narrow valley began to clearly appear in front of the two of them. Tie Lang knew that this was the goal of this expedition — Secret Realm Valley.

At this moment, there were already many people gathered at the entrance of the valley, standing or sitting. Of course, most of the Iron Wolves knew each other.

"Haha!" Tie Lang, you're really lucky to actually have a light jade key! " From afar, Zhan Chen's laughter could be heard.

Swish!

However, a figure stood up abruptly from the ground, and with a movement of his body, he closed in on Tie Lang and Shangguan Xiaoyue. Before Tie Lang could clearly see the man's face, he had already prepared his life for this attack, and viciously swung his right fist at the incoming person …

In his imagination, those who rushed over at this moment were obviously the people who stole the keys.

"Iron Wolf!" "Don't..." Before Shangguan Xiaoyue could say anything, Tie Lang's fist had already struck out.

At such a close distance, it was already too late for the person to dodge. In a flash, he quickly stretched out his right hand. A golden light blossomed into a large hand. With lightning speed, it struck out with a palm, imprinting itself onto the iron wolf's giant crimson fist!

Boom! *

Tie Lang felt as if his fist had hit a steel wall. Nearly thirty percent of the force he sent out was repelled by a tyrannical force. At the same time, he also felt the force of his opponent's punch colliding with his right fist. With a bang, Iron Wolf was pushed back five steps. He looked at the newcomer with fear!

"Could it be Haotian?" Tie Lang could not help but be shocked.

This was definitely the strongest young opponent he had ever faced! He had been forced to retreat in a hurry. Under normal circumstances, he would not be a match for the opponent if he were to use his full strength.

"Bang!" "Bang!" The person was also knocked back three steps before he managed to stand firm! It was only then that Iron Wolf saw who it was …

"Senior brother Long Yue!" "You …" Shangguan Xiaoyue said.

Long Yue's face was also full of shock! Tie Lang's strength had also shocked his heart. When Tie Lang attacked, he was especially shocked by his valiant and indomitable spirit.

He hadn't thought that Tie Lang and Long Yue would actually exchange a hand like this. Both sides now had a deeper understanding of each other.

Long Yue already knew that Tie Lang was very strong, but it was only now that he realized how strong Tie Lang was. If it wasn't for the fact that his palm technique was profound, Tie Lang would have already sent him flying.

He couldn't help but value Tie Lang more, but he remained calm as he said, "Your strength is really heavy."

Long Yue looked at the golden river dots above Tie'er and Shangguan Xiaoyue's heads, his face finally changing into an incomparably excited expression as he continued, "Adding you two to the Light Jade Keys, a total of seven of your keys have been found and have come here, we only have one more!" But this time, our Nine Dragon Sect actually acquired three of them! What a pleasant surprise! "

Only now did Tie Lang notice that there was also a shiny golden dot a foot above Long Yue's head. It was obvious that he had obtained a glowing jade key.

"The three of us must always stay together, just in case something happens. When I was on my way here, I met a few waves of people who tried to rob me, and I defeated them all. Although the rules stated that they were no longer allowed to attack here, they had no choice but to be on their guard. As long as the three of us are together, we should be able to deal with any problems! Other than that, I wonder if you guys have met the two Junior Brothers, Yu Qian and Liu Tianzi? I never saw them. I wonder how they are? The protective array formation of the mystic realm valley was slowly beginning to show itself … There's not much time left, let's go! "

Tie Lang and Shangguan Xiaoyue followed behind Long Yue, quickly arriving at the gathering point of the crowd. In this place, besides the Cool Breeze Faction, the other five factions had all gathered together. The tigers were guarding each other.

Tie Lang's gaze swept across them and clearly saw the ownership of the other four keys. Hao Tian of the Black Wood Stronghold, Qin Meijuan of the Tiger Fang Gang, Zhan Chen of the City Lord's Mansion, and Ling Yunzi of the Jade Cloud Pavilion.

There were two other Jade Cloud Pavilion disciples standing beside Ling Yunzi, protecting him with nervous expressions on their faces. Seeing Tie Lang, Ling Yunzi smiled and nodded, as a form of greeting.

On the Blackwood Stronghold's side, two people were Haotian and Da Xuan. Including Qin Meijuan, two other disciples of the Tiger Fang Gang also arrived. Qin Meijuan sat by herself with her legs crossed and her sword held at an angle. On the City Lord's Mansion's side, the Zhan Clan's siblings and another disciple had arrived. Zhan Wanting obviously didn't get the key. However, from her face, he didn't notice much loss.

"Tie Lang, thank you for saving Da Xuan. "However, I, Haotian, have always been at odds with you. I will naturally find an opportunity to repay you for the kindness I owe you. However, the enmity between you and I must be settled!" Haotian's eyes shined brightly as he looked at Tie Lang. However, the hostility in his eyes had lessened.

Tie Lang calmly nodded his head and didn't say anything. He turned around and looked toward the entrance of the valley.

In front of him was a straight canyon that was about a hundred meters wide. It cut the mountain ridge into two halves horizontally. The canyon constantly emitted grey rays of light, obstructing Tie Lang's line of sight.

The place where they were standing was a flat and open valley entrance area. A hundred feet in front of them was an octagonal shaped stone platform that was about a hundred feet in radius. It was level with the ground. In the center of the stone platform, there was a circular area with a carved eight petal golden lotus. The petals were in a fully bloomed state, the golden lines were vivid, lively, and shiny. The front of each of the eight petals had a rune drawn on them, leading to the eight directions of the stone platform.

Around the stone platform, there were eight vivid and lifelike carvings. They were also golden lines, shaped like eight animals.

Butterflies, canaries, dragons, snakes, tigers, cicadas, turtles, and wasps! All eight animals had their heads pointed at the center of the lotus.

At this time, four patterns of eight animal forms had already flashed with Yu Yu's golden light. Under the golden light, a faint shadow of an animal emerged from the opposite side of the battle stage, swimming back and forth where it belonged as if it was alive.

A faint golden fog had already started to rise from the other four directions, and the outline of some animal patterns had started to become even brighter.

Everyone who had obtained the key looked around anxiously, constantly directing their gazes towards the platform and the two sides of the mountain!

Tie Lang immediately understood. This stone platform with the golden Nine Palace Eight Trigram Diagram must be where the array formation to open the mystic realm canyon was located. Every key they obtained had a fixed location. Only when the eight keys are simultaneously used can the array be opened. But now, everyone could only see the seven bright jade keys. If the last one still didn't appear at the last moment, then they would have entered in vain this time.

As a result, everyone could not help but feel somewhat anxious.

"One more!" If it wasn't in the hands of that Cang Huang, or if it was obtained by Dongfang Haoyu, then the chances of the other disciples getting it weren't high. "But where did these two guys go? Why haven't they appeared yet?" Haotian frowned and said.

"Damn it!" Could it be that these two fellows are deliberately not showing up and are playing with us? " Zhan Chen cursed in anger.

"Perhaps the eighth light jade key never appeared?" Ling Yunzi said worriedly.

"This... It can't be? Didn't it say that only by being tamed would there be a change in the corresponding beast diagrams? Right now, all eight of the beast maps have changed. In other words, not only has the eighth key appeared, it has already been subdued! " Shangguan Xiaoyue analyzed.

"Junior Sister Xiao Yue is right!" But where was the key? I estimate that it will take at most another hour for this formation to open. If the eighth key does not arrive here in time, then our adventure will have been wasted! " Long Yue added.

Qin Meijuan, who sat alone at the side, also opened her eyes, revealing a terrified expression.

"Is that what you're all talking about?" Tie Lang, who had been silent all this time, calmly spoke. He slowly raised his right hand, and a dazzling golden key suddenly appeared in it …

Another golden dot of light suddenly appeared above Iron Wolf's head …
