All People: I Slay Gods with Martial Arts

29: Chapter 28 Secret RealmAs the space rippled, the two of them had already exited the Kunlun Heaven and Earth and returned to the main world.

However, the black-haired monsters behind them had no intention of letting them go. They pursued them out as well, like a dark cloud covering the sky, continuing to chase after the two.

”Damn it, run!”

Ye Xiu blasted a [Pride of the World] toward the rear. The thousand-meter-long blood-colored shockwave caused the dark cloud formed by the monsters to pause for an instant.

Utilizing the force of the recoil, Ye Xiu pulled An Qingyi along and put a significant distance between them and the endless horde of monsters.

Even so, the monsters behind them remained like a shadow, following them from afar, determined to devour them.

”General, you go first. I will cover the rear.”

The spiritual power in An Qingyi’s body was already nearly exhausted. The continuous battles and traveling had brought her to her limit.

”...Stop talking nonsense.”

Ye Xiu reprimanded her. This woman had a screw loose. Although his Life Qi was currently somewhat insufficient, it would not be easy for these monsters to catch up to him.

If it weren’t for the fact that the Nine Heavens Taoist Sect had been wiped out for the sake of Yunzhong City, he wouldn’t even bother with the life or death of this woman.

An Qingyi had never been reprimanded like this before, and she instinctively wanted to retort. But when the words reached her lips, she held them back.

The martial cultivator before her was very strong. Perhaps there was a chance of survival.

The dark cloud formed by the monsters covered the sky. Even with Ye Xiu fleeing at full speed, the distance between the two sides was still being rapidly closed.

Fortunately, the flying Yao Beasts they occasionally encountered attracted the attention of many monsters, causing the original dark cloud area to shrink significantly.

As they encountered more and more Yao Beasts along the way, the sky-covering dark cloud formed by the monsters became smaller and smaller. Seeing this, Ye Xiu’s spirits lifted significantly. He forced himself to burst forth with his Life Qi and continued to flee at full speed.

Three days later, the terrifying dark cloud formed by the monsters finally disappeared completely.

”What kind of ghosts are these...”

Ye Xiu descended from the sky and casually dropped the exhausted An Qingyi onto the ground.

”I need some time to heal my wounds. Please, General, act as my Protector.” An Qingyi did not feel any anger, despite being treated violently.

Ye Xiu nodded and sat down to heal himself as well. Over the past three days, his consumption had been significant. His body, already lacking in Life Qi, had even begun to show signs of Life Qi decay after such a long journey.

It was just like the Dragon King who had been hunted down a few days ago. With Life Qi decaying, less than one-tenth of his combat power remained.

The two of them spent a week in peace, and their injuries finally recovered.

”General, I recently discovered something strange.” An Qingyi picked some wild fruits from the mountains and ate them on her own.

Ye Xiu remained sitting cross-legged on the ground. After his Life Qi recovered, he was surprised to find that his cultivation, originally at the seventh grade of the Sky-Soaring Realm, actually showed signs of breaking through to the eighth grade. This must be the miraculous nature of the [Heaven-Breaking Martial Body].

Seeing that Ye Xiu ignored her, An Qingyi did not mind and continued on her own: ”Over there, there is a group of the Yao Race with average strength. Between the mountains where they are located, there is an extremely miraculous place.”

After speaking, she paused and looked at Ye Xiu’s reaction. Seeing that Ye Xiu remained motionless, sitting cross-legged on the ground, she couldn’t help but sigh softly: ”That place seems to be a Secret Realm. If we go in, it might be of some help to our cultivation.”

A Secret Realm? Ye Xiu was naturally interested, but he was currently at a critical juncture of his Breakthrough, so he would naturally not give up on his Cultivation.

As time passed, amidst a roaring sound, Ye Xiu achieved a Breakthrough. 320 Dragon power, eighth grade of the Sky-Soaring Realm.

”Tell me about it in detail.”

”What?” An Qingyi was a bit stunned. At this moment, with the Breakthrough in his Realm, Ye Xiu emitted an unusually masculine Qi, which caused her, having cultivated for twenty years, to blush slightly.

”How much do you know about the Secret Realm?” Ye Xiu asked.

”I’m not too sure, but I can observe that after the Yao Race enters, their strength has indeed improved quite a bit.”

”Let’s go and take a look.” An Qingyi nodded and took Ye Xiu flying toward that mountain range.

After crossing several large mountains, the two soon arrived at a place guarded by many humanoid Yao Race members.

”It’s that spatial ripple. It seems to be like the Kunlun Heaven and Earth, not in this main world.” An Qingyi pointed to the dozen or so Yao Race members in the distance who had not yet discovered them and said.

Ye Xiu nodded: ”Be quick. Don’t make too much of a commotion. Leave a few alive for questioning.”

After speaking, he took the lead and made his move. The dozen or so Yao Race members were instantly killed by his powerful force before they even realized anything was wrong. Only two lucky ones were left behind.

”Do you understand human speech?” Ye Xiu asked indifferently, gripping the humanoid Yao Race member.

”This is the territory of the Six Monkey King. Do you want to die...” Before the Yao Race member could finish speaking, its neck was snapped directly.

Ye Xiu reached out and grabbed the Yao Race member that An Qingyi had controlled, continuing his interrogation: ”Do you want to die or live?”

”L... Lord, I don’t want to die...”

”Very good. A wise man submits to circumstances. I will ask you a few questions. Answer honestly, and perhaps I can spare your life.”

”Lord, please speak. I will answer truthfully.” The little Yao looked pale and was trembling all over; it was clearly terrified.

”What is the situation here?” Ye Xiu said, pointing to the spatial ripple not far ahead.

”This is a trial Secret Realm. Those who pass through the Secret Realm can receive the Secret Realm’s blessing. Only powerful Yao Race members are qualified to enter for the trial.”

”Very good. How many Yao Kings are there here?”

”Three. The Monkey King, the Peng King, and the Golden Snake King.”

”Not bad, you are quite honest. Then I’ll let you die quickly.” Ye Xiu said indifferently, and his palm exerted force instantly. Before the little Yao could feel any pain, everything went black before its eyes, and it croaked.

Seeing this, An Qingyi frowned slightly: ”If you were going to kill it, why give it hope?”

”Tell me, when Yao Beasts eat people, do they feel pity?” Ye Xiu calmly tossed the corpse in his hand aside and slowly walked toward the Secret Realm.

An Qingyi sighed in her heart. This was the biggest difference between the Daoist school and the Military school. The Daoist school emphasized conforming to the Heavenly Dao and believing in Karma, while the Military school only cared about success or failure, emphasizing that there is no deception in war.

As the space rippled slightly, the two of them successfully entered the Secret Realm.
