"It's... that cultivator surnamed Ye!"
As they got closer, Bai Kun recognized Lu Li and Ye Chenfeng.
His expression immediately turned cold.
Before he entered, his Lineage elders had given him instructions: killing was not an option within the secret realm.
The rivalry among fellow disciples goes unnoticed by outsiders, hence the numerous instances of infighting.
At this moment, Ye Chenfeng had another person beside him. If a conflict broke out while he was alone, things would naturally go badly.
As he paused, he noticed that the handsome, green-robed cultivator beside Ye Chenfeng looked vaguely familiar.
"That is..."
"Why do I feel like I've seen him somewhere before... Wait! It's... it's that outer disciple of the General Affairs Hall!"
"That's right, it was him! Those two were the ones who caused trouble with me that day!"
Recalling Lu Li's face, Bai Kun was slightly startled.
He hadn't expected that Lu Li would also advance to the outer sect and participate in the conference.
Now that it was the two of them that day, and we've run into each other again today, my heart skipped a beat.
Without lingering, he turned and quickly left.
"Both of them are at the Foundation Establishment, and that guy surnamed Ye came down from Supreme Azure Peak."
"Two against one is not good for me. I'll retreat for now and deal with these two one by one after I seize the fortuitous opportunity and leave the tournament!"
Thoughts raced through his mind, and Bai Kun moved even faster.
But before they had gone far, a whooshing sound suddenly came from behind them.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh whoosh!!"
"Leave? Do you think you can just walk away!"
Ye Chenfeng's gaze turned cold.
With a wave of his hand, four mid-tier second-level flying swords shot out.
His entire being exuded a murderous aura; when he summoned his sword, he was completely unlike any other person.
Its aura was incredibly sharp, carrying a strong killing intent.
He had no major grudges or resentments towards Bai Kun.
There's no need to explain; he practices Sword Dao, focuses on killing, and seeks only a clear and enlightened mind.
At first glance, it is so glaring and unsettling that only drawing a sword can bring relief.
not to mention...
"How dare you use the name of the True Lord to intimidate me and Junior Brother Lu!"
"For that reason alone, you deserve to die nine times over!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Chenfeng took a step forward.
With a few quick steps, his Movement Method suddenly became fluid and powerful.
"Whoosh!"
His body instantly turned into a blur and disappeared from the spot.
"Not good!"
"He's caught up!"
Ye Chenfeng, causing Bai Kun's expression to change.
Although he was a direct descendant of the Bai Household and had successfully Foundation Establishment, he wasn't so extravagant as to casually throw out four mid-level second-tier flying swords.
The moment he saw Ye Chenfeng pull out his flying sword, he knew something terrible was about to happen.
This Master True Person is probably not so easy to deal with.
Immediately, he retreated rapidly, fleeing in the other direction.
Seeing this, Lu Li silent.
They were simply surprised by Ye Chenfeng's change.
I used to think this 'protagonist' had a slightly childish personality.
Seeing the murderous intent emanating from his every move, one realizes that being the "protagonist" is not something anyone can do.
As Bai Kun retreated rapidly, he used his personal Law Artifact and talismans to try and stop Ye Chenfeng.
But his methods seemed so pale and powerless in the face of so many sharp flying swords.
"Break!"
"Break"
"Break! Break it...!"
With a series of low shouts, Ye Chenfeng pierced through the opponent's Law Artifact with a single sword strike.
With another sword strike, he pierced through layers of talismans.
Another sword strike shattered Bai Kun's protective Spiritual Power.
The final sword strike pulled out his flesh, organs, and all.
With a cry of agony, Bai Kun cried out "Pain is unbearable!" and died on the spot.
The direct descendant of Upper White Peak, the most promising Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Bai Household, perished in the secret realm.
He didn't even last the time it takes for an incense stick to burn before he died abruptly.
As the Sword Qi surged, even the soul was completely pulverized...
"Hmph, you chickens and dogs dare to talk to me?"
Ye Chenfeng killed Bai Kun with a single sword strike without even blinking.
He reached out and took the other person's Storage Bag, then returned to Lu Li's side.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
Lu Li a finger from beginning to end.
" Junior Brother Lu, would you like to take a look at this Storage Bag?"
Ye Chenfeng tossed the Storage Bag aside, his expression calm and casual, as if he had just killed a chicken with a single sword stroke.
Instead of being a direct descendant of some elite prodigy from Upper White Peak...
"Senior brother, you should dispose of the spoils yourself."
"Junior brother won't participate."
Lu Li waved his hand, not looking at the Storage Bag.
He looked at the place where Bai Kun had died with a puzzled expression.
All that could be seen were his bones lying across the land of the secret realm, and the remaining blood dried up and disappeared at an extremely rapid pace.
Even their physical bodies seemed to be twisted and absorbed by the blood-red soil.
It sank into the ground little by little.
"This secret realm... is truly bizarre."
"It feels like this corpse was used as nourishment..."
His eyes flashed, Lu Li was about to go up and take a closer look.
Out of the corner of his eye, he was drawn to a bright red light.
I looked up for a moment, only to see the distant horizon.
A five-colored auspicious cloud floated beneath the blood-red sky.
The auspicious clouds and rosy glow could be felt even from afar.
It was as if a supreme treasure had suddenly appeared within!
"This is... Secret Realm Dao Fruit?"
"That's it! It must be that miraculous Dao Fruit that has appeared!"
Lu Li's expression changed, he hesitated slightly, and then sped towards the direction of the rosy light.
Seeing this, Ye Chenfeng put away his Storage Bag and followed.
The two flew across the land, one after the other.
Sweeping across the sky.
We are getting closer and closer to the auspicious five-colored clouds.
The number of people I encountered also increased.
Clearly, this colorful glow had attracted the attention of all Foundation Establishment within the secret realm.
Lu Li even spotted a familiar figure in the crowd in the distance.
It was Wu Changgeng.
There were also some bloodstains on the other person.
It seems he got into a conflict with someone as soon as he came in.
Not only him, but as the crowd drew closer, almost everyone was covered in blood.
There was clearly a lot of fighting.
" Junior Brother Lu! Come quick!"
" The Secret Realm Dao Fruit is about to emerge. How about we join forces to compete for it?"
Wu Changgeng also saw Lu Li, and spoke excitedly.
Hearing his words, Lu Li did not rush to agree, and moved closer with Ye Chenfeng.
"Senior Brother Wu, do you know how many Secret Realm Dao Fruit?"
"With so many people, if there are only a few... wouldn't that lead to a fierce battle?"
"There probably aren't many."
Wu Changgeng clearly realized what was happening as well.
At this moment, hundreds of Foundation Establishment have gathered beneath the auspicious five-colored clouds.
Almost all the Four Peak True Person have gathered here; with so many people, it's bound to cause a commotion if they all try to grab it.
Those Foundation Establishment Great Perfection must feel a chill down their spines.
As expected, after realizing what was happening, the crowd quickly split into small groups.
Fellow Daoists seek fellow Daoists, those of the same kind meet those of the same kind, and hundreds of True Person transform into dozens of groups.
They confronted each other fiercely, their faces menacing.
When fortuitous opportunity intervenes, what need is there for camaraderie among fellow disciples?
They were all like jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards.
However, that's not entirely the case.
Several Foundation Establishment True Person, who were noticeably older, all wore hesitant and fearful expressions.
He stood apart from the crowd, lost in thought.
Seeing this, Lu Li scanned the area, quickly analyzed the situation, and hesitated before speaking.
"Those people must be participating in the Immortal Ascension Grand Assembly before, right?"
"But why... do they seem more afraid?"
