Not Eating, Just Playing

"That's quite a coincidence."

Lu Changzhi said softly.

While he was thinking about Luo Zhen, Zhou Xun unexpectedly discovered news about Luo Zhen.

At that moment, Lu Changzhi focused his mind on examining the scene that Zhou Xun had observed.

Judging from Zhou Xun's appearance, he was probably keeping his distance.

In its field of vision, there was a spirit beast of considerable size, covered in fur, which looked somewhat like a cat. It was now assuming a hunting posture, looking into the distance.

Brush.

Seemingly having found its target, the spirit beast immediately darted away.

At the same time, Zhou Xun also flashed to the group of corpses next to him.

The scattered corpses bore traces of being torn apart by spirit beasts, and blood was everywhere.

Among these corpses, Zhou Xun raised his hand, grabbed a body, and pulled it out directly, then quickly retreated to the side.

"As expected of someone who works in the shadows."

Lu Changzhi secretly praised this.

He wasn't even sure if it was Luo Zhen, because he was stained with blood and had a hideous face, making him difficult to identify.

Zhou Xun simply grabbed him and pulled him out.

At that moment, Lu Changzhi looked at Luo Zhen.

Since it wasn't a matter of thought, it was impossible to sense Luo Zhen's aura and state.

However, judging from the situation, it was really bad. He had several gruesome wounds on his body, and a huge wound on his chest, where broken ribs could be clearly seen.

On one side of the scalp, a long gash was also rubbed open, and the reddish-white skull could be vaguely seen.

However, despite the dire situation, Lu Changzhi still noticed that Luo Zhen's chest was rising and falling slightly.

At this moment, Lu Changzhi, or rather Zhou Xun, heard the screams and turned to look.

Then they saw the same spirit beast carrying a person back, and the scream came from the person in the beast's mouth.

After the spirit beast stopped, it put the person down on the ground and gently patted them with its paw.

Seeing that the person had moved a little distance, the spirit beast bit and picked them up again.

This time, there were no screams.

The spirit beast placed it on the ground again, patted it with its paw, and seeing that it no longer moved much, carried it to the pile of corpses.

I don't eat, I just play.

Zhou Xun did not continue looking at the rest.

Lu Changzhi withdrew his thoughts and used the system to check Luo Zhen's information about his opportunities.

As someone who's being exploited by others, allowing them to view personal information without restrictions is quite considerate.

There was no red light flashing, so there was no problem with his life.

"But..."

Lu Changzhi pondered for a moment and asked the system:

"Do you think Luo Zhen will perish if he goes to the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty?"

If he hadn't stopped him, Zhou Xun would obviously have taken Luo Zhen back to the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty, since this was something he had specifically instructed them to do in the secret realm.

As soon as Lu Changzhi finished speaking, the system said:

"Of course not, Master. He has been enhanced by you."

Lu Changzhi nodded. "In that case, let Zhou Xun take him back."

If such a separate explanation is completed, it can be considered a merit, and it can also increase the level of trust one can gain.

As for the cost...

Luo Zhen should know.

Of course, besides these, there is another consideration.

If Qin Jiuxiao goes back, given what happened before, things might fall apart between them.

Qin Jiuxiao's current rate of strength improvement is significantly faster. If he were to stay in the Cloud Heaven Holy Land, who knows what kind of trouble he might cause.

Putting his mind aside, Lu Changzhi stopped thinking about Luo Zhen.

The system marked the locations of Qin Jiuxiao and Qin Han; they were currently not far from the exit.

Leaving shouldn't be a big problem.

Next, barring any unforeseen circumstances, we just need to wait for Qin Li to complete her trial mission.

"To be honest, it's not as easy as I imagined."

After thinking it over carefully, Lu Changzhi gently shook his head.

This void rift appeared far too late; if it had appeared from the beginning, it would probably have been completed by now.

"If we leave like this, we'll completely lose the top spot in this secret realm."

Inside the city, Wujie frowned as he looked at the spirit beasts and crowds outside.

Originally, he had a plan for this secret realm.

However, things didn't go smoothly at all afterward.

While they were out arresting the eager young man, someone unexpectedly came to cause trouble in the city, causing most of his followers to leave.

Despite being a little slow in attempting to climb the Nine-Story Tower, he was violently thrown off the tower, and the light he used to climb it wouldn't even fade away.

Originally, he could have finished off the others in the secret realm.

With the power of Buddhist Order, it wouldn't be difficult to do these things, and in that way, they could also collect a large amount of light.

However, this sudden beast tide disrupted everything once again.

Now, everyone is leaving.

Even as a Buddhist disciple, Wu Jie's Wujie was far from at peace at this moment.

Just then, a huge spirit beast suddenly appeared in the distance, gradually approaching.

Even though they were dozens of miles apart, the terrifying aura emanating from this spirit beast was already drawing near.

Upon sensing this, Wujie's expression immediately changed.

The aura of this spirit beast is excessively strong. With his current abilities, he might be able to escape, but fighting it or killing it would be difficult!

At this moment, the spirit beast seemed to notice him and suddenly turned around.

Roar!

The terrifying force was earth-shattering, causing the ground to tremble.

"Walk!"

Seeing this, Wujie no longer hesitated and decisively set off, with a group of Buddhist Order disciples following closely behind.

In the distance, there was the enormous and imposing spirit beast.

"As expected of a young Buddhist Order monk, he has quite the composure."

After saying that, the old man shook his head, closed his eyes to sense something, and then relaxed.

"Alright, I've finished dealing with this area. I can go and rest now."

As soon as the voice faded, the spirit beast's figure vanished in a flash.

The younger generation of various factions poured out from the entrance to the secret realm.

This sudden turn of events caught many forces remaining near Heaven's Chosen City off guard.

They haven't been seen for days, but when they do, there's a whole bunch of them.

After some inquiries, all parties finally understood the situation.

An unexpected incident occurred within the secret realm, with a large number of powerful spirit beasts surging in, forcing all parties to leave.

As for why they didn't come out earlier, it's because they simply couldn't find the entrance.

All parties were relieved by this.

If it weren't for this unexpected incident with the spirit beast, and if the secret realm had ended normally and people couldn't leave early, that would probably have been the most dangerous time for most cultivators.

After all, even if a person no longer radiates light, they still become light after death.

Fortunately, due to the impact of the beast tide, this trial in the secret realm is showing signs of ending ahead of schedule.
