"Hmph! Don't even think about escaping."
Although the opponent seems to be at a perfect level, how could the consumption of Divine Skill be as much as that of ordinary martial arts? If this battle continues, the two goddesses will undoubtedly be defeated.
Clang! Puff puff...
Jiang Xueqiao's longsword was incredibly sharp; even though the ghost warriors were protected by battle formations, she still managed to kill dozens of them.
However, it's not a big problem, because these ghost warriors all have soul seeds left in Chen Mu's inner world. As long as it takes time, Chen Mu can help them recover.
The chaotic battle lasted for more than half an hour. During this time, Han Zishu and Jiang Xueqiao were surrounded several times. Helpless, they could only use powerful Divine Skill to escape, and their auras grew weaker and weaker.
"This bastard is despicable; we can't fight him to the death. Let's go!"
Although Jiang Xueqiao was taciturn, she was exceptionally calm in battle. Seeing that Chen Mu showed no signs of fatigue, she decisively decided to escape.
Pfft...!
The secret realm is incredibly mysterious. As long as you think about moving forward and take a step, it will open spatial tunnels to enter various grottoes. However, if you think about leaving, it will create a passage to leave the Kunlun Secret Realm.
"Good!"
Seeing that Han Zishu Jiang Xueqiao about to escape, Han Zishu dared not stay there alone and quickly opened a spatial tunnel, trying to escape from here.
However, at that moment, a woman's figure made a move right behind Han Zishu.
" Divine Skill, Nine Nether Nether King Stab!"
Han Zishu felt a chill run down her spine, her mind seemed to go blank, and she stood there frozen in place.
Bang! Sizzle...!
Fortunately, she was protected by the lotus magic treasure. Even if it wasn't a divine artifact, it was still at the level of Huai God. Mingye's attack was blocked by the lotus magic treasure. Although it hit her, it didn't kill her immediately. She only took a few steps back and coughed up blood.
"What a terrifying method of invisibility!"
Han Zishu had been on guard against Mingye's sneak attack, but Mingye's hiding skills were too superb. The afterimage left by Mingye was still hundreds of meters away, but her real body had already attacked her.
Clang! Thud...!
Jiang Xueqiao, on the other hand, was much luckier. She easily blocked Chen Mu's attack, and leaving the Kunlun Secret Realm seemed much more stable than entering the spatial tunnel of the Cave Heaven.
After repelling Chen Mu, she darted into the spatial tunnel and disappeared completely.
"Sister Xueqiao, save me!"
Han Zishu's expression immediately changed. As the saying goes, fortunes change. Just now, she and Jiang Xueqiao were having a great time attacking Mingye, but in the blink of an eye, she was caught in the crossfire of Chen Mu and Mingye.
Whoosh... Boom!
She dared not hold back any longer, urging the Star Core and Chen Mu Mingye to fight desperately, intending to find another opportunity to escape.
But she had clearly miscalculated. Chen Mu excelled at close combat and aggressive attacks, while Mingye was responsible for sneak attacks and exploiting weaknesses. The two worked together seamlessly, and even if she used all her trump cards, she still couldn't turn the tide.
She held out for over an hour thanks to her own strength, but ultimately died by Mingye's dagger.
"Great stuff! Haha, it's mine now."
After Han Zishu died, Chen Mu immediately set his sights on her round pebble and laughed heartily.
Although this pebble is small, it weighs over 10,000 tons. Chen Mu has never seen a substance with such a high density before. If it can be thoroughly studied, it can be used as the core of an interstellar warship.
Besides these, Han Zishu had many other valuable items in her storage ring, which Chen Mu Muquan took out and shared some with Mingye.
The lotus-shaped magic weapon had been completely refined by Han Zishu. It kept flashing its light, trying to escape, but Chen Mu suppressed it.
"There's no use keeping such a stubborn spirit around!"
Chen Kingdom is not short of magical treasures. Chen Mu directly destroyed the spirit of the lotus magical treasure with a single palm strike, then put it into his storage ring, intending to take it back to the Chen Kingdom and reforge it.
"Oh right! I haven't checked the storage ring of that divine son in the True Body Grotto-Heaven yet."
After dealing with Han Zishu, Chen Mu remembered that Ximen Zhanpeng's storage ring was still on his hand, so he opened it to check it.
Storage rings are also magical artifacts, and their materials are incredibly sturdy. However, they generally do not develop a spirit, so after their owner dies, they become ownerless and anyone can open them at will.
"Not bad! There's even a small piece of Divine Source Stone. They really are a bunch of rich kids!"
Chen Mu found more good things in Ximen Zhanpeng's storage ring than Han Zishu, which suggests that Ximen Zhanpeng's background is indeed stronger than Han Zishu's. It's possible that what Han Zishu said when she begged for mercy wasn't entirely a lie.
" Mingye, let's absorb all these sacred pills and medicines first! Let's increase our strength."
To avoid encountering danger later.
The nine grotto-heavens of the Kunlun Secret Realm are all for honing a cultivator's abilities in a specific area, but they are not suitable for improving overall cultivation. Chen Mu and Mingye's cultivation has hardly improved in the past six months.
Taking advantage of the large quantity of sacred medicine they had seized, they simply sat cross-legged on the spot and began to improve their cultivation.
And so, they stayed there for more than a month.
Mingye's cultivation level broke through to the Saint Level Late Stage, while Chen Mu's cultivation level was almost at the Saint Level Peak. Both of them had become much more profound.
" Mingye, let's go!"
As we planned, you will go to the True Body Grotto-Heaven, while I will go to the Reincarnation Grotto-Heaven.
Now, only two Heavenly Court Princes remain in the entire Kunlun Secret Realm. Chen Mu learned through the image-recording runes that Ye Beihen had already left the First Grotto-Heaven and then went to the Fourth Grotto-Heaven.
The other divine child has not yet emerged from the Eighth Grotto-Heaven.
Chen Mu had originally considered whether to enter the Fourth Grotto-Heaven with Mingye to first surround and kill Ye Beihen, thus eliminating this biggest threat.
However, they are unaware of the situation in the Fourth Grotto-Heaven. If they are not in a favorable position during the trials, they might be killed by Ye Beihen.
On the other hand, the Kunlun Secret Realm has been open for nearly a year, and Chen Mu estimates that the Heavenly Court cannot keep it a secret forever; perhaps others will enter soon.
At this point, instead of fighting with the Heavenly Court, it would be better to quickly enter the cave and gain benefits. After all, the enemies of the Chen Kingdom are not only the Heavenly Court, but also other powerful alien races.
Mingye had been to the Seventh Grotto-Heaven, ' Reincarnation Grotto-Heaven,' while Chen Mu had been to the Fifth Grotto-Heaven, ' True Body Grotto-Heaven.' They were very familiar with the trials in these two grotto-heavens.
After assessing the situation, they all knew they could easily pass the trial, which is why Chen Mu made this decision.
"Okay, then let's set a six-month limit."
Regardless of whether we complete the trial ahead of schedule, we will emerge precisely at this time six months from now.
Mingye spoke up, confirming with Chen Mu.
This timeframe was determined jointly by Chen Mu and Mingye. They were both confident that they could pass the test within six months, and if they came out at the same time, they could help each other if they encountered other powerful individuals.
