In the Six Realms, powerful secret realms all have their own specific rules.
Different secret realms possess different regulationsâ
much like a thousand faces for a thousand people.
This secret realm, centered around the Peach Blossom Wuxuan Qin as its formation core, enforces the rule of cultivation suppression.
Jiang Jinheâs demon king realm cultivation was suppressed down to early Golden Demon Realm.
This is the power of the realmâs rules.
Under such circumstances, two possibilities arise:
either all demons who enter this secret realm have their cultivation suppressed by at least two major realms,
or all demons without exception are uniformly suppressed to early Golden Demon Realm.
Judging by the demon aura fluctuations emitted from the many demons behind Xi Xingbai,
it was clear they were all early Golden Demon Realm cultivators.
In the demon world, there could not be so many demon kings of that caliber.
Among those following Xi Xingbai, there must be demon lords and Golden Demon Realm cultivators, but now they all shared the same cultivation level.
This naturally proved the second possibility:
cultivation levels were uniformly suppressed to the same baseline.
But if that was the case, how could Xi Xingbaiâs body emit the demon aura fluctuations of a late demon lord realm cultivator?
That was completely illogical!
âYour surprised expression is exactly like when you saw me bloodbath the trial land back then.â
Xi Xingbai raised his hand slightly and slowly clenched his fist.
In an instant, the entire secret realm was enveloped in a blue glow.
Ye Yu raised an eyebrow and immediately recognized this as the way of formation arrays.
It seemed this guy had decided to kill, wanting to completely cut off their thoughts of escape.
Such arrogance!
Xi Xingbai noticed Ye Yuâs gaze shift to him,
and his eyes showed a flicker of doubt.
âLook what I foundâan interesting fellow.
You all go kill Jiang Jinhe and take back the Peach Blossom Wuxuan Qin.
This male demon, Iâll handle personally!â
Upon hearing this, Qu Wenmiao immediately nodded in agreement and led the many demons behind him to advance toward Jiang Jinheâs location.
A faint mocking smile appeared on his slightly aged face.
As a high-ranking member of the Baâan Sea Divine Sea Assembly,
though he was undersea, Qu Wenmiao was well informed of the demon worldâs land affairs.
He knew very well that the female demon before them was the new city lord of Jianyao City, Jiang Jinheâ
a late demon king realm cultivator!
What a mighty presence!
In other places, Qu Wenmiao would surely have fled facing such a strong opponent.
But now, within this secret realm, everyoneâs cultivation was only early Golden Demon Realm.
That made all the difference.
After all, nearly â đđšđŻđđ„đąđ đĄđ â thirty demon cultivators of the same realm stood behind him.
With a united attack, no matter how profound your cultivation techniques, they would be useless.
Slaying a late demon king cultivatorâ
that was enough to brag about for a lifetime!
Meanwhile, Xi Xingbai twirled his fingertips, excitedly saying,
âI sensed a unique aura on you.
So, what exactly is your true form?
Never mind, no need to tell me. Iâll devour you bit by bitâthen Iâll know everything!â
Ye Yuâs face darkened in frustration.
What exactly was this Divine Sea Assembly?
Why did they always want to eat others? Such talk was really rude!
Ye Yu flexed his ten fingers and coldly said,
âAfraid you donât have that ability!â
âThen weâll just have to try!â
Xi Xingbai grinned ferociously and was about to strike.
Suddenly, a melodious qin sound sounded.
The space around them twisted with the rhythm.
The next moment, Xi Xingbaiâs arms exploded apart.
This sudden change left Ye Yu puzzled.
He hadnât figured out what was going on yet when a strong force came from his waist,
lifting him into the air.
Wait, he was being carried?
Looking down, he saw Jiang Jinhe carrying him.
Ye Yu covered his face with one hand, feeling utterly embarrassed.
Such a boyfriend-power-packed move should be done by a man, right?
Youâre a female demon carrying me like thisâ
the image was somewhat off.
Ye Yu felt awkward and quickly said,
âStop, put me down!â
âShut up! This isnât the time for jokes. We must leave here quickly!
Or we really might die!â
Jiang Jinheâs expression was extremely serious.
She wasnât joking.
Although she had just used the Peach Blossom Wuxuan Qin to kill over twenty demons and shattered Xi Xingbaiâs arms,
that strike drained eighty percent of her demon energy.
She had no strength left for a second attack.
Though she didnât know exactly how Xi Xingbai had raised his cultivation to late demon lord realm,
within this secret realm,
having a cultivation strength over a whole major realm higher was enough to sweep all away.
If Ye Yu wanted to fight a demon lord cultivator with his Golden Demon Realm cultivation, it was pure fantasy.
This was why Jiang Jinhe had to carry him away immediately.
The situation was critical; to survive, they had to escape!
Jiang Jinhe carried Ye Yu to the edge of the secret realm.
Facing the blue light barrier ahead, she immediately cast a spell to strike it.
But only ripples appeared; the barrier showed no damage.
âDonât waste your effort. This is the Yin-Yang Qingyao Formation. Early Golden Demon Realm cultivation cannot break it.â
Xi Xingbaiâs voice came from behind.
Jiang Jinhe turned to see him not far away, with the heavily injured Qu Wenmiao behind him.
That qin sound just now hadnât killed the black-robed elderâit was indeed tough!
Jiang Jinhe gritted her teeth, using the opportunity to recover her demon energy while quietly plotting how to kill this bastard Xi Xingbai.
âDonât look at me like that. Iâm the one whoâs hurt now.â
Xi Xingbaiâs voice remained calm as he swung his two empty sleeves.
Then suddenly stomped his foot,
and a blue glow appeared around him.
His two pale arms regrew.
He moved his hands and continued,
âEnough, Jiang Jinhe. Donât try to stall any longer.
This secret realm has problems. Your demon energy canât recover quickly.
Just accept your fate.
By the way, how about putting down the male demon on your shoulder? Arenât you tired carrying him?â
Jiang Jinhe frowned slightly.
As Xi Xingbai said, this secret realm was indeed problematic.
Not only did it suppress cultivation,
but demon energy recovered more than ten times slower than outside.
Damn it!
âActually, I think what he says makes sense. You canât keep carrying me like this forever; itâs a bit inappropriate.â
Ye Yu spoke, agreeing with Xi Xingbai.
Honestly, being carried like this wasnât comfortable.
He didnât want to struggle,
but Jiang Jinheâs strength was considerable, and simple struggling wouldnât free him.
If he used immortal power, he might hurt herâand she was doing this with good intentions after all.
