He ignored Shen Xuzi, who was reveling in having his freedom.
After exiting the minor realm, Chen Changâan set his course and made his way towards the center of the secret realm.
Usually, the Tai Xuan Secret Realm only opened for two months.
And now, the second month had already begun.
By this point in time, the struggle for the central altar was supposed to begin.
The central altar, divided into the five-colored and seven-colored altars, has always been the significant opportunity in the Tai Xuan Secret Realm.
Under usual circumstances, the challengers from all the major forces would gather there to engage in a battle, contending for the final victor.
The person who emerges victorious would receive the gift from the Tai Xuan Secret Realm.
Although it might not significantly increase their cultivation, it could greatly purify their potential.
Moreover, the person who successfully wins the ownership of the altar would get a Great Dao flower, either five-colored or seven-colored, depending on the altar that they have.
Five-colored flowers would come from the five-colored altar, and seven-colored flowers would come from the seven-colored altar.
However, as far as Chen Changâan knew, the majority of the altars only produced the five-colored Great Dao flower.
Obtaining a seven-colored Great Dao flower was nearly impossible.
Because in the entire Tai Xuan Secret Realm, there were no more than twenty seven-colored altars!
Chen Changâan intended to pay a visit to that place.
After all, his junior sister Mao Ruxue and the others were still there.
Thinking of this, Chen Changâan proceeded forward, with Shen Xuzi, who seemed slightly insane, following closely behind him.
Shen Xuzi was like a deranged old man.
After traveling for several miles, Chen Changâan and Shen Xuzi arrived at a terrifying forest.
All of the trees in this area were uniformly dead-black, appearing eerie and horrifying.
Upon arrival, Chen Changâan halted.
Chen Changâan stopped not due to the creepiness of the forest, but because he heard a voice from within it.
"Benefactor, I wonder where youâre planning to run off to now."
The voice was harsh, with an air of deviance about it.
Upon careful listening, it seemed as if two people were in pursuit.
"Eh, kid, why arenât you moving?"
Seeing Chen Changâan halt, Shen Xuzi came forward confusedly asking,
He hadnât heard any sound throughout the journey, most likely because he had been too thrilled all the way.
Chen Changâan didnât answer this old man. Instead, he grabbed Shen Xuziâs body, the Shen Shen Immortal Herb, and stuffed it into his pocket.
Throughout the journey, he had had enough of this old man.
He was constantly chirping and chattering incessantly,
Even Tang Seng from the âA Chinese Odysseyâ couldnât rival him.
"Damn! Kid, how dare you do this to me, your grand...!"
Chen Changâan didnât give him a chance to speak, his action was swift and decisive.
After stuffing Shen Xuziâs body into his pocket, the old manâs spirit body then disappeared.
All said and done, he was just a piece of grass, where did he get such energy from?
After dealing with Shen Xuzi, Chen Changâan looked at the forest in front of him, hesitating.
He was considering whether to go directly through or take a detour.
If he were to make a detour, it would considerably extend his journey.
He would truly have to walk, rather than fly.
They were already nearing the center of the Tai Xuan Secret Realm, which had extremely strong rules that were capable of restricting even the Heavenly Venerate.
Even flying within the secret realm was strenuous.
Therefore, Chen Changâan didnât wish to make a detour.
However,
If he didnât take a detour, he might get involved in the situation up ahead.
At that time, it would likely lead to a bunch of troublesome matters.
Chen Changâan disliked trouble.
And that was still the case now.
"Old man, letâs take a detour."
After a moment of consideration, Chen Changâan reached a decision.
"Where are you going?"
Just when Chen Changâan was having second thoughts,
Two figures, a man and a woman, suddenly burst out from the forest in front.
The man had sparse hair, and he looked kind of like a monk, yet not entirely. A lewd aura surrounds him suggesting that he might be a disciple of the Happy Buddhism.
The woman, on the other hand, was beautiful, dressed in a pink immortal dress, and had an otherworldly air about her.
However, that wasnât the main point.
The main point is that Chen Changâan seemed to recognize the woman.
It wasnât that he personally knew her, itâs just that he had seen her before.
This woman was none other than one of the female disciples who had accompanied Qin Miaoyi to the meeting at Tianxiang Pavilion.
"Why would someone from Tianxiang Pavilion be here?"
Chen Changâan furrowed his brow. He didnât understand why this female disciple was here.
Whatâs more, it seemed like she was on the run, being chased.
No, it couldnât exactly be described as being chased - rather, it was more like she was being pursued lasciviously.
Chen Changâan could see clearly that the little bald guy chasing the female disciple had a lewd expression on his face.
"Senior."
"Please save me."
Just as Chen Changâan was deep in thought, the female disciple spotted him.
Seeing another human being, she immediately let out a desperate plea for help.
It was purely an act of desperation, like a critically ill patient searching for a cure.
Before Chen Changâan could even open his mouth to speak, Shen Xuzi, in his spatial realm, began to make fun of the situation.
"Oh, kid, youâve got good luck."
"Just stepping out, youâve encountered this classic cliche of a hero saving the damsel in distress. It seriously makes me envious!"
Despite Shen Xuziâs physical body being stuffed into Chen Changâanâs pocket,
As an entity that had existed for countless million years or even longer, briefly leaving his physical form isnât a problem for him.
