Chapter 1010: Chapter 128: Secret Realm_3

He first used the Leaping Technique and hovered in mid-air, then he used the Spirit Vision Technique to gaze into the distance.

“This secret realm is absurdly vast. My Spirit Vision Technique can spy hundreds of kilometers away, yet I still haven’t seen its edge…”

However, Zhao Yu could understand that, after all, it was a celestial treasure, and it was normal for the secret realm to be a bit large.

Unsure of his location, Zhao Yu dared not act recklessly. He applied several Concealment Talismans to himself and threw an Earth Escape Talisman, burrowing into the soil and temporarily staying underground.

He had been underground for nearly a quarter of an hour when a rainbow light flew past in the distance.

“Who is it?!”

Suddenly, the rainbow light stopped above Zhao Yu, and fiercely slashed a sword down towards the spot where he was hiding.

Are you kidding?!

Zhao Yu was speechless. With a push off his feet, he directly emerged from the ground and then activated his Spiritual Power to block.

“Boom~!”

The clash between the Spiritual Power and the Spirit Sword sent Zhao Yu flying dozens of meters away, while the Spirit Sword, too far from its master, lost its potency and was retrieved by that person.

Zhao Yu, while suspended in mid-air, had already used his Spiritual Sense to scan his attacker.

He had been cautious of others since entering, so naturally, he recognized the identity of his assailant.

“Hao Wenwen, the legitimate daughter of the Hao Family, not a seed, just recently broke through to the latter stage of Foundation Establishment, fond of fighting, hot-tempered…”

Zhao Yu felt a headache coming on knowing this person was not from the Zhou family but was also notoriously difficult to handle.

“You little thief, dare to ambush Miss Hao, looking for a beating!”

After her strike missed, Hao Wenwen flew into a rage, and after a cold shout, she attacked Zhao Yu again.

I ambushed your apple!

Zhao Yu cursed internally a few times, wondering who ambushed whom.

But to avoid escalating the conflict, he could only defend passively.

Hao Wenwen was indeed powerful, exhausting nearly half of Zhao Yu’s talismans in a mere quarter of an hour.

“You guy, why do you have so many talismans?!”

“Sister Hao, my strength is weak, I did not ambush you at all. Just now, hiding underground was also to prevent being ambushed by a phantom beast…”

Seeing Hao Wenwen’s intention to retreat, Zhao Yu quickly added, “I beg Sister Hao to have mercy, spare your fellow disciple this time. Once we leave the secret realm, I surely will reward you generously!”

“Hmph!”

Hao Wenwen snorted coldly, a bit annoyed that she hadn’t taken down Zhao Yu but also didn’t want to waste her real effort on him, needing to reserve her Spiritual Power to fight phantom beasts.

With that thought, she nodded, “Remember your words, seek me out to repay your debt after leaving the secret realm!”

Finishing her words, Hao Wenwen rose into the air and left on her sword.

Watching her retreating figure, Zhao Yu was speechless.

“What kind of person is she, attacking me out of nowhere and still expecting me to repay her…”

“But, these sword cultivators, they really use so little Spiritual Power…”

Zhao Yu reviewed the battle that just took place, in just a quarter of an hour he had exhausted seventy percent of his Spiritual Power.

Yet, Hao Wenwen had only used up ten percent of her Spiritual Power.

Most importantly, he felt that Hao Wenwen hadn’t used her full strength, otherwise he might not have been able to hold on.

“Really not to be underestimated…”

Zhao Yu mused, “Even someone from a family not among the three is this powerful; how strong must Ji Bufan, who’s ranked second, be?”

“Forget it, none of this relates to me. As long as I just keep my head down I’ll consider it a victory if I make it into the top one hundred!”

Zhao Yu looked around the site, already ruined by the battle, making it hard to stay any longer, so he decided to head in a direction opposite from where Hao Wenwen had gone.

After flying low for several dozen li in one direction, Zhao Yu suddenly stopped.

Using the Spirit Vision Technique to look ahead, he saw, a few li away, a huge serpent coiled around a towering tree.

“Is that the phantom beast?”

Zhao Yu sensed from afar, the phantom beast’s imposing presence was very strong, a standout even among those at the later stage of Foundation Establishment.

If he had to confront it personally, he was afraid it would take several rounds of Spiritual Power just to subdue it.

“This serpent phantom beast, if killed, ought to drop at least a purple or orange item, right?!”

After some hesitation, Zhao Yu decided to dig underground again and hid.

This time’s secret realm, after all, opened under the guise of a trial, containing items of great value, otherwise the number one and two seed players wouldn’t participate.

Indeed, according to Ji Gang, the top seed players wanting to advance to the Golden Core Stage was easy; the reason they hadn’t advanced was purely to continue accumulating a deeper foundation.

The goal was to make a sensational advance in the Golden Core Stage and soar to new heights.

After all, the contention among the seeds of the Golden Core Stage was harsher and the corresponding benefits somewhat better.

Zhao Yu crouched underground for about a quarter of an hour when fluctuations of Spiritual Power reached him from afar.

He silently emerged from the ground, hiding behind a tree, and peeked out.

Sure enough, on that side, two cultivators were flying and fighting with the giant serpent.

From the two cultivators’ attire, they were clearly descendants of the Ji Family.

“Lucky for me, it’s people from the Ji Family…”

Zhao Yu breathed a sigh of relief; had it been people from the Zhou family, he would have had to flee.

The two from the Ji Family were formidable, seemingly even stronger than Hao Wenwen.

Even so, it took the two of them combined nearly half an hour to take down the serpent.

“Boom~!”

With the serpent’s death, its body instantly dissipated, accompanied by a burst of green light.

And within that green light, shockingly, lay a weapon radiating powerful Spiritual Power fluctuations.
