Qin Lang's side.

Qin Lang's followers joined forces to hold back a Dharma Aspect Third Layer demonic beast.

The demonic beast resembled a lion, but bone-piercing chill radiated from its entire body, as though it had walked out of an ice cellar.

Faced with the followers' obstruction, the demonic beast grew furious as well.

It charged left and right as though no one stood in its way, knocking several followers sprawling in all directions.

Watching his followers being ravaged by the demonic beast, Qin Lang was extremely anxious.

As Nine Clear Dragon Roars rang out, Qin Lang's body was instantly enveloped in powerful spiritual energy.

In his hand, a Nine-Dragon Patterned Spear condensed.

"Nine Dragon Piercing Kill Spear!"

With a furious shout, Qin Lang twisted his body and viciously hurled the spear in his hand.

Wrapped in astonishing spiritual energy, the spear seemed to have eyes as it blasted toward the Fierce Beast wreaking havoc nearby.

This Fierce Beast possessed considerable intelligence as well. Knowing how terrifying this move was, it darted left and right, trying to evade the fatal strike.

The followers also knew that Qin Lang had not easily condensed this move. Gritting their teeth, they desperately held back the Fierce Beast trying to flee.

"Whoosh!"

After a piercing shriek through the air, the spiritual-energy spear struck the demonic beast squarely in the spine, directly pinning its massive body to the ground!

"Beast, let's see if you die now!"

Qin Lang was highly pleased with himself.

Just then, Qin Lang suddenly sensed demonic beast auras spreading all around them, instantly permeating the entire world.

In the distance, the mountains and forests churned, while the roars of demonic beasts rose and fell one after another.

Qin Lang and his followers were struck dumb with shock. They all stopped moving and stared blankly toward the distance.

Herds of demonic beasts could be seen racing in a certain direction as though they had received an order!

Among these demonic beasts were fated natural enemies, as well as predators and prey.

Yet now, these demonic beasts seemed to have forgotten their past grudges, caring only about running forward.

The followers had never seen such a sight before and were instantly left gaping in astonishment.

"Don't worry about anything else for now—move aside!"

Only then did Qin Lang's followers snap out of it at his shout.

They happened to be standing in the path of the beast horde. If they did not move aside quickly, they would likely be trampled into pulp by hundreds or thousands of demonic beasts!

The Dharma Aspect Third Layer demonic beast Qin Lang had pinned to the ground disregarded its injuries, broke free of its restraints, joined the beast horde, and raced away.

Pale blue blood spilled across the ground.

The other demonic beasts seemed not to notice Qin Lang and his followers at all, focused only on running without pause.

Watching the rampaging beast horde, everyone was utterly bewildered and began discussing it all at once.

"What is going on?"

"Have these demonic beasts... all gone mad?"

"What is this...?"

"This has never happened before!"

As he watched the direction in which the demonic beasts had gone, Qin Lang's eyes flickered continuously.

This Secret Realm was the Qin Family's inherited Secret Realm. Apart from demonic beasts, it also contained countless Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

With the demonic beasts acting so abnormally, it was highly likely that some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures had emerged.

If you can't find it by searching the book title, try searching for the author instead—it may simply have been renamed!

And any Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures capable of driving so many demonic beasts into a frenzy had to be extraordinary!

At this thought, Qin Lang immediately shouted, "Brothers, these demonic beasts are behaving so abnormally. There are probably Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures ahead of them!"

"Moreover, judging from the situation, the grade of those Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures shouldn't be low! Follow them!"

At his words, greed immediately surfaced in the followers' eyes.

Though their strength was inferior to Qin Lang and the other Five Great Sequences, they were still outstanding talents among the Qin Family's younger generation.

In a family like the Qin Family, strength was the sole source of authority.

Though they knew that even if they were lucky enough to obtain the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, they would certainly belong to Qin Lang, they still hoped to get a share of the spoils!

Qin Lang took the lead, his followers close behind as they followed the beast horde.

Before they had gone far, they ran head-on into several of the other Great Sequences.

"Qin Lang, what are you doing? We just saw Fierce Beasts running in that direction like they had gone mad. Suspecting there were Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, we came over to take a look!"

"Don't tell me you're thinking the same thing?"

Facing the questioning from the other major Sequences, Qin Lang looked at Qin Qing'er, the Third Sequence, standing not far away, a cold smile curling across his lips.

"You'd all be better off thinking about killing a few more Fierce Beasts. This young master has already claimed these Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures."

Qin Qing'er, the Third Sequence, was a woman.

She was tall, with long legs, and the fitted soft armor she wore traced every alluring curve of her body.

Faced with Qin Lang's overbearing declaration, Qin Qing'er curled her lips in disdain. "Qin Lang, I know you're strong, but there are three of us on this side!"

"Though the three of us are each weaker than you, with our followers added in, it's still uncertain who will be the deer and who the hunter!"

Then, as if something had occurred to her, Qin Qing'er looked around. "Why haven't I seen Qin Jiuge? Where did he run off to?"

"With such a huge commotion, there's no way he didn't see it... With his showboating nature, how could he possibly resist coming over?"

Hearing Qin Qing'er's doubts, Qin Feng, the Fifth Sequence, threw back his head and laughed loudly.

"Qin Jiuge? That kid has probably run off without a trace already!"

"These demon beasts are acting like lunatics. With such a massive formation, even we need to avoid their edge for now. He didn't even bring a single follower—how could he dare stay here for long?"

Qin Yu, the Fifth Sequence, hurriedly chimed in as well.

"Exactly! Qin Jiuge showed off to his heart's content when he entered the Secret Realm. Let's see what he does now!"

"He doesn't even have a follower. This time, the order of the Five Great Sequences may well have to change!"

Qin Yu had always been stuck at the bottom, so resentment naturally lingered in his heart. Now that Qin Jiuge had no followers, he would surely find himself beset on all sides and unable to cope.

He was even thinking of using this chance to raise his own ranking.

Just then, Qin Lang, who was closest to the demon beast horde, suddenly stopped and raised his right hand in a gesture for everyone to halt.

Though the other major Sequences were deeply displeased by Qin Lang's arrogance, his strength was the real deal, and they did not dare act too presumptuously.

"Qin Lang, why did you suddenly stop?"

Qin Feng moved closer to Qin Lang and asked in a low voice.

"Shh!"

Qin Lang placed his right index finger before his lips in a gesture for silence, then raised his hand and pointed toward the demon beast horde.

The demon beasts that had been running for their lives were now gradually slowing down.

Some of the beasts in the rear even crashed into those ahead of them.

There was no shortage among them of savage and violent Fierce Beasts, yet at this moment, these demon beasts seemed to have changed their nature. Paying no heed to anything else, they merely stared blankly ahead.

The four major Sequences, Qin Lang among them, felt their hearts turn cold at the sight.

This was... the place already!
