This was truly the first time Ye Li had ever experienced a high-level Secret Realm.
Mountains rise high, and the wilderness stretches far and wide.
This is the scene that comes into view; there's nothing particularly strange about it, but if I had to describe it, there's a strange sense of oppression.
There are quite a few rare and precious Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, but most of them are not very valuable.
Furthermore, even the most basic outer perimeter is teeming with Mutant Beast at the Heavenly Gate Realm level.
Just a few of them could easily cause most Secret Realm adventure groups to suffer heavy losses.
But these are clearly no challenge for any Martial Dao Grandmaster.
Feeling the inexplicable connection between the golden vine in his palm.
Holding the Ye Li Divine Spear, Ye Li's blood energy surged like a sea. He effortlessly cut through the outer horde of Mutant Beast and rushed towards the direction Jin Teng sensed at an extremely fast speed.
The vast landscape swept past beneath his feet, covering a distance of at least five hundred miles.
Wherever it passed, it left behind a series of shocking and enormous trajectories.
The Mutant Beast in the Secret Realm scattered and fled. Having begun to develop intelligence, they couldn't understand why such ferocious transformed Mutant Beast didn't stay in those Blessed Land, but instead ran to this desolate area to wreak havoc.
Fortunately, in the direction the opponent was heading, there was a powerful and ferocious Earth Vein True Dragon.
Even within the entire domain, they can be considered among the top-tier beings, possessing the ability to transform.
The two are clearly destined to clash, and a truly earth-shattering battle is bound to erupt.
We need to escape quickly.
"Call--"
With the full support of a speed comparable to that of Land Immortal, a journey of tens of thousands of miles is merely the time it takes to brew a cup of tea.
Ye Li out a soft breath and gradually slowed down.
After stopping, I looked up and gazed ahead.
Several majestic mountains came into view, covered in lush greenery, and the aura of the [Realm-Breaking Golden Vine] emanated from the summit of the highest peak, Zhongyue.
There's no need to use Divine Consciousness sense anymore; I can see our destination simply with my eyes.
Golden vines coiled and twined around the stone pillars on the mountaintop, shimmering in the sunlight.
At first glance, it's nowhere near a size that can be measured in inches.
It can be measured in feet at least.
That felt great...
Ye Li suppressed the turmoil in his heart, lowered his eyes, and looked down at the vast land below.
Silently, powerful true energy surged and roared within his body.
The Spiritual Energy within a radius of a hundred miles is extremely abundant, more than ten times higher than that of ordinary treasure lands on Blue Star.
Furthermore, within hundreds of miles of this place, there are almost no traces of Mutant Beast. If one had to name one, there are only a few dragons playing in the water, but their strength is far from sufficient to occupy such a prime location.
It seems that the owner of this place is someone else.
It's perfectly normal for such Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to be guarded by ferocious Mutant Beast.
But before getting their belongings back, they had to deal with the thief first.
As for those few frolicking Martial Infant Realm dragons, they are most likely its wives and concubines.
In Ye Li's perception.
Within the majestic Central Mountain lies a massive underground palace, from which a profound aura, comparable to that of the Divine Dao Sect, emanates, emanating serenely.
Within the mountains, inside the underground palace.
A middle-aged man dressed in a red robe sat cross-legged, breathing steadily, his extremely long red eyebrows constantly moving.
It is the incarnation of an eighth-tier earth dragon, the ruler of this place.
With its powerful beastly body, it was able to forcibly devour the [Realm-Breaking Golden Vine] atop Mount Zhongyue to enhance its own strength.
Although the medicine is so potent that it can only consume a very small amount at a time, it still requires a considerable amount of time to digest and heal afterwards.
However, through accumulated experience, he has also reached the level of the Hegemony Realm.
In another thousand years, the Earth Dragon might even be able to use the remaining [Realm-Breaking Golden Vine] to advance to the mid-stage of the Hegemony Realm.
At that time, even that arrogant peacock with its Supreme Treasure will be on equal footing with it!
However, the next moment, the earth dragon suddenly opened its eyes, and an uncontrollable panic surged in its heart.
Something's not right! There's...
Before the words were even finished, a vast and unfamiliar aura suddenly erupted from the outside world, soaring into the sky!
The earth dragon suddenly turned its head.
A sound like a mountain collapsing suddenly rang out, and then a figure in Baiyi forcefully charged into the underground palace!
The sheer volume of blood and energy was almost the greatest the earth dragon had ever witnessed in its life.
"What is that?!"
The earth dragon was terrified, but it didn't lose its composure. Its hand transformed into a crimson dragon claw like an iron hook, and it fiercely grabbed at the head of the newcomer.
The next moment, a sound of metal shattering rang out.
Its crimson dragon claws then exploded.
Ye Lijin's eyes were icy cold, and his fist was filled with terrifying force. With one punch, he sent its entire body flying!
The mountain collapsed, and soil and rocks rolled down.
As the earth dragon flew backward, it revealed its true form: with deer antlers on its head and covered in red armor, it was a colossal dragon with a body length exceeding a thousand feet!
"Heh... heh..."
With a sudden crash, the Thousand-Zhang Earth Dragon smashed through the forest, creating a huge ravine. It gripped the ground with its three claws, barely managing to steady itself, and a human-like look of horror appeared in its eyes.
Where did this strange thing come from? It punched me so hard I lost my balance.
What came into view was a White-robed Youth standing in mid-air, his arms bulging with muscles and blood gushing out, holding a strange Golden Great Bow!
The bow is drawn as full as a moon.
The next moment, a vast golden light arrived from afar and suddenly exploded on its body!
The Thousand-Zhang Earth Dragon was slammed into the ground by this ferocious blow, causing the mountains to tremble. Intense pain surged from its back, and unprecedented injuries appeared on its body.
A penetrating wound hundreds of feet long appeared on its back, and its throbbing, disgusting internal organs were clearly visible.
They dared not linger for even the slightest moment.
The Thousand-Zhang Earth Dragon struggled to its feet, pulling its body out of the earth and letting out an angry roar to the sky!
In an instant, the earth shook and mountains trembled. An immense pressure descended upon the area, and countless wildly spinning stone spikes emerged from the ground, hurtling towards the figure in Baiyi like an inverted rain curtain!
At this moment, the earth dragon's eyes widened in anger, but it could only see the other party's indifferent, icy, and condescending Golden Eyes.
Immediately afterwards, all the spiked stones disappeared without a trace.
A pitch-black hand, seemingly capable of blotting out the sky, descended, occupying the entire field of vision of the Thousand-Zhang Earth Dragon.
The threat of death suddenly gripped my mind.
The thousand-foot-long dragon felt as if the entire world here was sealed off by a viscous substance, making it difficult to mobilize its own power. Its three remaining dragon claws were almost unable to support its weight.
"Hold head high!"
It roared to the sky, but this time it was filled with a more obvious sense of despair than the first time.
The Thousand-Zhang Earth Dragon unleashed a vast amount of energy, but the indestructible stone pillar, barely formed, was instantly crushed by the pitch-black palm that stretched over ten thousand feet, causing the surrounding mountains to tremble and collapse.
[Slayed Earth Vein True Dragon at the early stage of the Hegemony Realm, Malice Points +!]
This terrifying Mutant Beast is comparable to the early stage of the Hegemony Realm.
In the hands of a White-robed Youth who had just arrived, it was so fragile that it couldn't even last two minutes.
