Chapter 591: Chapter 577: Destruction of the Secret Realm, The Dignitary’s Rage!_1

In the ancient mine, under the leadership of the master of Yuanling Temple, Yuanxue, the venerable Yuan Hong and his companion had already delved three hundred zhangs below the surface. The mine veins were filled with a faint waste gas that made people extremely uncomfortable.

"Where on earth did Elder Stone go? For such an important secret, instead of you personally guarding it, you actually let two outsiders monitor it."

Of the three Zhong Lou Realm Martial Artists who knew about the situation, two were already killed. The remaining Elder Stone, who was originally guarding the Stone City outside, had surprisingly entered the mines for some unknown reason and had been inside for two days. This made Yuan Hong Venerable feel quite suspicious.

This was too coincidental. The mine veins were not only filled with endless waste gas, but they also contained poisonous gases. Even he, a revered figure, was required to close all the pores of his body upon entry. It was not that this poison could harm the body, but after inhaling a large amount of it, one would have to spend time to expel it from the body, which was not worth the loss.

According to the deceased martial artist of the second layer of the Towering Realm, Elder Stone had been in the mine for two days. But being at the third layer of the Towering Realm, he couldn’t possibly remain in this wild waste gas permeated mine cave for two days to cultivate. The only explanation was that it had something to do with the secret realm.

"It’s my oversight. I had just recently passed the Thunderfire Tribulation, and the entire Yuanling Mountain Range was filled with poisonous gases, which was extremely unfavorable for consolidating my cultivation. Therefore, I entrusted the duty to two martial artists of the Towering Realm to guard here, I was never informed about Elder Stone entering the mine."

At this moment, Yuanxue also couldn’t help but suspect, this abandoned ancient mine, even though it produced crystal shards, but the most crucial part was that secret realm. Elder Stone entering the mine vein for two days for no reason, this was indeed suspicious.

"All right, just an ordinary Third Layer Martial Artist, as long as he is in the mine, even if he harbors ulterior motives, he is not a threat, let’s go!"

Although he was saying this, Yuan Hong Venerable shouted for Yuanxue to speed up.

"Elder Stone!"

In the dim mines, a figure appeared at the end of the cave, and immediately came into view. Yuanxue involuntarily shouted in a low voice.

However, Elder Stone seemed not to have heard it and was rushing straight at the two of them.

"Not good!"

All of a sudden, Yuan Hong Venerable was shocked. He felt that Elder Stone’s Circulating Heaven Qi Sea within his body was in a violent state. It was a clear sign that he was about to self-destruct his Martial Arts Tower.

Although his spiritual will had always been sweeping across the mine veins, because the mine cave was winding and twisted, with rocks and thick soil all over, running into several dozen or even hundreds of zhangs of rocks and soil greatly reduced his spiritual sensation. Otherwise, he would have detected the anomaly of Elder Stone already.

"Seal!"

Despite that, Xiao Chen underestimated the Venerable’s mighty perception. Yuan Hong Venerable’s eyes burst into a dazzling light, he pointed his two hands together like a sword, several invisible sword energies converged in his hand, formed a sword seal, and printed towards the location of Elder Stone’s Qi Sea.

"Explode!"

Just at the moment when Yuan Hong Venerable’s sword seal pierced through the void and arrived, a sparkle exploded in Elder Stone’s eyes, and a harsh voice roared in his Soul Sea, resounding like a loud bell.

Hum Hum Hum!

In an instant, the sword seal crossed a hundred zhangs, and at this moment, Elder Stone’s Circulating Heaven Qi Sea was on the verge of exploding.

Freeze!

The sword seal entered the Circulating Heaven Qi Sea, and Elder Stone, whose Qi Sea was surging like a storm, suddenly had an illusory sword seal materializing above his Martial Arts Tower, pressing towards his raging Qi Sea.

He managed to suppress Elder Stone, who was on the verge of self-destruction and whose Qi Sea was turning over and over. This was something Xiao Chen hadn’t expected. Elder Stone’s spirit had long been scattered by Xiao Chen, leaving only the instinctive state. Therefore, the idea left by Xiao Chen in his mind experienced a moment of hesitation when executed.

Even this moment of hesitation was enough for a Venerable. Although he had suppressed Elder Stone’s Qi Sea, there was still violent Combat Qi surging inside Elder Stone’s body.

Boom!

Blood and bones splattered. In the depths of the mine, rolling smoke and dust arose. Although the explosion was suppressed, the remaining Combat Qi exploded Elder Stone’s body completely.

"Damn it!"

In an instant, the ancient mine slightly trembled, and tons of rubble fell down, accumulated into a small mountain at the spot where Elder Stone exploded, blocking the mine cave.

"Yuanling Sword Art!"

The Venerable Yuan Hong immediately became furious. The iron sword on his back instantly unsheathed, transformed into several sword lights, and cut towards the collapsing rubble. The sword light several zhangs long, turned countless falling rubble into powder.

Elder Stone, who had been in the mine for two days, once he saw them, immediately planned to self-destruct. Even a fool could think that a major event must have happened!

And the only thing in the ancient mine is the secret realm!

"Senior Elder, what on earth is going on?"

The master of Yuanling Temple, Yuanxue, couldn’t help but feel a chill, if anything really happened to the secret realm, he would definitely be severely punished.

"Is it true that only you and the three elders knew about the secret realm!" With a livid face, Venerable Yuan Hong coldly asked.

"I dare not deceive the Venerable, let alone deceive the clan leader. Only I and the three elders of the hall knew about this secret realm. Moreover, the mining slaves who were present at the time were all slaughtered, no one was left alive. Even I did not know why Elder Stone would act like this. Please take note of this, Senior Elder!"

Feeling the chill radiating from Yuan Hong Venerable, Yuanxue hurriedly knelt down and explained.

"Rise," the Lord Yuan Hong spoke to Yuanxue, who was kneeling at his feet. He held great trust in his tribespeople.

"It seems someone may have beaten us to it!" After a moment, Lord Yuan Hong spoke in a solemn tone.

What!

"How can that possibly be? Has the news leaked from the elders in the temple?" Yuanxue was shocked.

"Yes and no, Elder Shi’s mind was already under someone else’s control. If that’s the case, all his secrets have undoubtedly been discovered by that person."

What!

"Could there be other lords who have arrived?"

To subdue other’s mind and perceive their thoughts, only a powerful lord could possess such strength.

"Such is also my conjecture. But if someone truly made it first, my Yuan Feng Marquis Division isn’t easy to trample over!" A murderous intent flashed across Yuan Hong’s eyes.

A secret realm, such a lucky chance, might contain the martial arts heritage of a powerful being. Retracted a step to say, solely the secret realm itself is also a great opportunity for the entire marquis division. If it has indeed been claimed by others first, it would be a relentless fight to the death.

"Let’s go!"

"First, we go to the mine where the secret realm is. Elder Shi has only been controlled for two days, and the War Soldier guarding the ancient mine said that no one has entered other than Elder Shi. So, perhaps the lord only wanted to use Shi’s hand to explore and verify the secret realm. He happened to return along our way and had no choice but to control Elder Shi to self-destruct in order to destroy all traces."

Two figures turned into streaks of light and swept towards the depths of the mine vein. They were eager to explore the secret realm, but they didn’t notice that in the pile of discarded mining slag they passed by, a bit of starlight sparkled, extraordinarily eye-catching in the dim mine.

Inside the Mountain and River Seal World, Xiao Chen was sensing what was happening in the outer world with furrowed brows. Facing this formidable lord, with his current abilities, escaping wasn’t going to be easy.

Perhaps the moment he steps out of the Mountain and River Seal Space, he will be detected by this lord. But the most dangerous place often becomes the safest. Since it’s like this, he might as well stay in this mine for a few more days.

"How could this be!"

In front of the surging Blazing Magma, the lord of Yuanling Temple became somewhat mad. The black Crystal Stone where the node of the secret realm was located was actually full of tiny cracks, similar to a spider web.

It was a clear sign of the secret realm’s impending destruction!

"Damn, who is it!"

Could it be that after finding it impossible to open the secret realm, they decided to completely destroy it to prevent his Yuan Feng Marquis Division from exploiting it?

"Could it be Elder Shi?"

"Not him. With the strength of the Heavy Tower Realm’s third level, it’s impossible to shatter the node of this secret realm."

After pondering for a moment, Lord Yuan Hong said, "I will personally enter the secret realm and see who exactly has the audacity to snatch the food from the tiger’s mouth!"

"Elder Supreme, the node of the secret realm is so badly destroyed that it’s unrecognizable. The inside of the secret realm has probably collapsed, and rashly entering could result in being lost in the space turbulence."

"Hmph!"

The next moment, a dark light flashed in Lord Yuan Hong’s hand, and a Jade Talisman emitting a grayish aura appeared.

"This is one of our tribe’s treasures, the Void Charm. With it, it can isolate space turbulence within a radius of several feet."

Following that, the Void Charm’s dark light intensified, fell on the Crystal Stone node, and the ancient road appeared again. Lord Yuan Hong’s figure flashed and entered the secret realm.

Barely a short moment later, the Crystal Stone’s light radiated immensely, and Lord Yuan Hong’s figure reappeared, bearing a hint of his disheveled look.

"Such a ruthless heart, to actually destroy the Primordial Stone of the secret realm and plunge the secret realm back into chaos!"

His eyes turned blood-red, and Lord Yuan Hong’s face twisted hideously.

"I will certainly find you!"

The sky vault in the secret realm had already collapsed, revealing a dark, ink-like Void. Endless turbulence swept across, and all the ancient mountains and trees on the original ground turned to dust, floating towards the depths of the Void.

Unlike the madness of Yuan Hong and another, Xiao Chen, currently in the Mountain and River Seal Space, was not idle. He was seizing the time to enhance his own strength.

In the secret realm, he had collected a large amount of Bones from various dragon-seed Exotic Beasts. These Bones, after being worn over countless years, were from none other than powerful dragons-- albeit most of their essences had dissipated, but for Xiao Chen, these Bones still had a great use.

At this moment, Xiao Chen sat on the hillside, almost turned into a Black Hole. The essence that remained in one set of beast Bones that were as vast as fifty feet, had been entirely devoured by him in a brief moment, reducing the Bones to dust.

To advance from the fifth level of the Golden Battle Body to the sixth level, where one begins to derive the Mysterious Art of Blood Rebirth, it takes an enormous amount of energy. One set of Beast Bones after another was refined by him into nothingness, and the grayish-white impurities spilled.
