The Myriad Devil Sect's Mysterious Black-robed Man!

[Seven days later, you had completely suppressed the Sinister Worm within your body, but correspondingly, you also suffered a certain degree of backlash.]

[Fortunately, you cultivated the Azure Emperor Longevity Art, making your vitality and recovery energy top-tier.]

[Even without actively cultivating, your body was constantly repairing itself every moment.]

[You stood up and began to survey this secret realm. All your information about the Immortal Falling Secret Realm came from what Ye Chuxue had told you.]

[You only knew that your current location was the outer perimeter of the secret realm; you had no knowledge of the deeper areas.]

[But you still vividly remembered how, in the last simulation, you were killed with a single palm strike by a powerful figure in the secret realm.]

[You silently noted this grudge in your heart. A gentleman's revenge is never too late, ten years is not too long.]

[Regardless of the other party's reasons, you were both on the side of humanity. Yet they disregarded this and struck to kill you, so you had no need for mercy.]

[You temporarily left the Immortal Falling Secret Realm and returned to Desolate Village.]

[When you arrived back at the Courtyard, you found that Ye Chuxue was actually not there.]

[At first, you thought she might have gone out to cultivate or was hunting for the nearby villagers.]

[It wasn't until you saw a letter left on the table that you confirmed Ye Chuxue had left Desolate Village.]

[You opened the letter and read its contents.]

[Ye Chuxue said that a cultivator resembling an Awakened One had been discovered in Qin, and she needed to go confirm it and bring them back.]

[After reading the entire letter, you naturally knew who Ye Chuxue was talking about—Lin Qi!]

[You burned the letter and immediately sprinted toward Qin.]

[You knew that because you had killed the Foundation Establishment disciples of the various sects ahead of time, certain changes were bound to occur.]

[It would absolutely not be like before, where a group of Qi Refining disciples led by a Foundation Establishment Great Perfection disciple came to besiege them.]

[This time, it was very likely that Core Formation Cultivators would come.]

[Thinking of this, you dared not waste any time and charged with all your might toward the Qin Capital!]

[Ten days later, you finally arrived at the Qin Capital.]

[Just as you entered the capital and were about to head toward the residence you remembered, you suddenly heard sounds of commotion coming from that direction.]

[You knew that Ye Chuxue had already started fighting the enemy.]

[A moment later, you arrived at the residence.]

[At that moment, Lin Qi lay in a pool of blood, his aura faint and fleeting, as if he would die in the next second.]

[On the other side, Ye Chuxue was not much better off, surrounded by two Core Formation Cultivators.]

[Seeing this scene, you directly unleashed the Great Desolate Prison Heaven Finger Remnant Style. A colossal finger descended slowly from the sky.]

[The two Core Formation Cultivators fighting Ye Chuxue, realizing they were locked on, hurriedly used their strongest divine abilities to resist.]

[But their strength was insufficient; they could not withstand your Great Desolate Prison Heaven Finger at all and were directly reduced to ashes beneath it.]

[The remaining ten Foundation Establishment Great Perfection disciples who had been besieging Lin Qi, terrified by the sight, immediately turned and fled.]

[However, you did not give them a chance to escape. With one finger, all of them turned into blood and vanished before your eyes.]

["Su Ming? You broke through to Core Formation this quickly?"]

[When Ye Chuxue saw that it was you, her expression shifted between surprise and joy.]

[She hadn't expected you to successfully break through to Core Formation in just one year, and it seemed the backlash from the breakthrough wasn't very severe either.]

[If you find this book good, to avoid losing it next time, please remember to add it to your bookshelf.]

[You didn't explain much. Walking over to Lin Qi, you found he still had breath, so you hoisted him onto your shoulder and, leading Ye Chuxue, directly fled Qin.]

[Not long after you left Qin, a figure blocked your path.]

[You couldn't sense the other party's cultivation level, and you knew their realm was definitely above yours—and by no small margin.]

[To your surprise, however, the other party did not make things difficult for you.]

["Don't worry, I'm also an Awakened One. Core Formation Cultivators from the Myriad Devil Sect, Wind Thunder Sect, and Qingyun Sect—the three great sects—are still continuously heading toward Qin."]

["You go ahead safely. I'll hold them off for you temporarily."]

[You looked at the Black-Clad Man before you, finding it hard to believe.]

[You asked him why he was helping you, and whether he wasn't afraid of exposing his identity.]

[The Black-Clad Man replied that he was helping you simply because he wanted to see what the Awakened One who had stirred up such a storm in Qingzhou looked like.]

[As for the issue of exposure, the Black-Clad Man told you not to worry, as he had his own methods to avoid being discovered.]

[Before leaving, you asked which sect the Black-Clad Man belonged to. He told you he was from the Myriad Devil Sect.]

[With the Black-Clad Man's help, you encountered no pursuit on the way back to Desolate Village.]

[A month later, you successfully returned to Desolate Village.]

[Along the way, Lin Qi's injuries gradually healed, and he could now walk normally.]

[One day, Ye Chuxue came to find you.]

"Su Ming, you can't fully trust that black-robed man."

You looked at her with confusion and asked why. Ye Chuxue began to explain.

"Although the goal of us Awakened Ones is to overthrow the rule of the Sinister Worms and reshape the entire Canglan Realm..."

"In ancient times, we Awakened Ones were still quite united. But now, due to differing ideals among many, there are also conflicts within the Awakened Ones."

"So, before we know the black-robed man's true purpose, we can't completely believe what he says."

After hearing these words, you suddenly recalled the scene from last time in the Immortal Falling Secret Realm, where you were crushed into a pulp by a single palm.

Sure enough, just as you had guessed, there were internal struggles among the Sinister Worms, and there were also struggles among human cultivators.

You told Ye Chuxue that you would be careful and asked her to cultivate well.

In the seventh year, your cultivation broke through to Core Formation Middle Stage. Ye Chuxue's cultivation had also reached a bottleneck, and she told you she was about to head to the Sky Abyss to break through.

Lin Qi spoke up, asking Ye Chuxue to take him along, and this time you originally didn't plan to go.

But Ye Chuxue told you that there was a secret realm in the Canglan Realm that opened once every ten years, and the next opening would be next year.

This secret realm only allowed cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage to enter. Ye Chuxue had originally planned to wait until she broke through to Core Formation before telling you.

But seeing that you were unwilling to go to the Sky Abyss, she told you in advance and invited you to go together after she broke through.

Upon hearing this, you agreed to go to the Sky Abyss with Ye Chuxue. This time, you could take the opportunity to thoroughly explore the Immortal Falling Secret Realm.

A month later, the three of you arrived at the Sky Abyss. You and Ye Chuxue jumped down without any hesitation. Lin Qi hesitated for a moment before following suit.

After entering the Immortal Falling Secret Realm, Ye Chuxue found a place and began to break through.

At this moment, Lin Qi excused himself by saying he wanted to look around and left. You didn't think much of it.

You began to wander around the secret realm, slowly walking toward its depths.

If you can't find the book title, try searching by the author—maybe it's just been renamed!
