Chapter 854: Not 1 inside or outside
One day later, in the lush jungle of a certain fragment of a secret realm.
Yanlan, Zhao Mu, and Jia Zheng concealed their presence and aura, hiding in the treetops. Not far away, three people were approaching with hearty laughter; it was Cang Lin and his companions.
The three of them never expected to be so lucky, running into Cang Lin so easily.
It's important to know that there are hundreds of fragments of the secret realm, large and small, making it quite difficult to encounter them.
I originally thought it would take a long time to find it, but to my surprise, I found it smoothly after going through only a few fragments.
Due to the spatial turbulence, Cang Lin and the others were also unable to use their divine sense. In addition, they had not cultivated any pupil techniques, so in front of Zhao Mu, they were practically blind. At this moment, they had no idea that they were being watched.
"This realm within a realm is truly unexpected!"
"Indeed, although the energy of heaven and earth will frantically give birth to a batch of high-quality natural treasures in the final moments of the shattering of the secret realm, it is rare to find such a large quantity."
"Yes, it's only been a few days. We've only searched for three fragments, but we've already harvested more than a hundred spirit herbs and plants of grade eight or above. That's many times more than what we've found in other places combined."
"What's so special about the eighth grade? Those five earth-grade spiritual herbs are the real treasures. We've struck it rich!"
"We've reaped such a great harvest, and others must have as much as we have. Should we grab a share?"
"Let's not get into these thoughts. Provoking public anger is not a wise choice. Killing Zhao Mu this time is enough."
"With Cang Li around, that guy is doomed."
"Hmm, that's strange. It's been quite a few days, and Cang Li hasn't sent back any news. Could it be...?"
"What are you thinking? Cang Li, that cautious guy, has gathered a full sixty people. With so many people, how could anything go wrong? I reckon they're currently immersed in the excitement of collecting rare and precious materials."
"That makes sense!"
"But then again, Cang Lin, Cang Yue, don't you think this secret realm is very similar to the legendary secret realm?"
"To draw upon the power of an entire world to cultivate a great medicine?"
"good."
"..."
As Cang Lin and the others were talking, they suddenly sensed a fluctuation of spiritual energy. They immediately looked around warily and saw a layer of transparent ripples suddenly rise up around them and quickly envelop them.
The faint sound of a dragon's roar could still be heard.
"Which reckless bastard dared to ambush and kill members of my Cang family!"
Although Cang Yue was the only woman among the three, she had the most volatile temper. As soon as the Dragon Trapping Formation was activated, she immediately began to shout and curse.
hum~
However, she had barely finished cursing when a streak of light came from not far away, carrying the force of thunder, and went straight for Cang Yue's chest. It was so fast that there was no way to dodge it, and she could only raise her hand to use her magical weapon to defend herself.
thump~
buzz~
The immense power sent Cang Yue flying as she hastily defended herself. After landing, her legs plowed the ground for over ten feet before finally coming to a stop.
As the light faded, its true form was revealed: a heavy, long spear.
The eighth-grade spirit sword in Cang Yue's hand seemed to be overwhelmed and about to break, emitting a constant buzzing sound, like a mournful cry.
At this moment, Cang Yue's aura was fluctuating, but she was not injured by it. Instead, she became even angrier.
"Those cowards who hide their heads and tails, dare to show yourselves and fight!"
"Humph~"
An echo reverberated from the surrounding void: "As you wish."
Tsk la la~
Zhao Mu, his body wreathed in arcs of lightning, vanished from the treetop and instantly appeared atop Cang Yue's head. His lightning-laden figure plummeted down, intending to smash her arrogant, foul mouth.
"It's you! You're still alive!"
Cang Yue recognized Zhao Mu at a glance. While dealing with him, she asked with some confusion, "Didn't Cang Li go to kill you? How are you still alive?"
"How foolish! I'm still alive, so isn't it obvious what will become of Cang Li?"
"impossible!"
Cang Yue, who was being called stupid, was so angry that her chest heaved. She said with disbelief, "Cang Li brought a full sixty men. How could you possibly be a match for him?"
"Haha~"
Zhao Mu had anticipated the other party's disbelief and said with a faint smile, "Who said it was just me? That self-righteous fellow even brought the people from the Amorous Sword Sect here. Now that they've undergone the Six Paths of Reincarnation, they might have already been reborn as pigs and are eating shit right now!"
"you....."
Zhao Mu's foul mouth made Cang Yue's face turn extremely ugly, but she still said with disbelief, "Even if the people from the Amorous Sword Sect are here, so what? They are not as strong or as numerous as you. How can you be a match for Cang Li?"
"You dare to deceive me here? Die!"
Cang Yue, who had already broken through to the fourth level of the realm, was not much weaker than Cang Lin in terms of cultivation and strength. Although she looked disheveled, she was actually not injured at all.
"To be honest, nobody believes me!"
Zhao Mu shook his head helplessly and said calmly, "In that case, I have no choice but to send you to see them!"
The longsword flew through the air, reaching Zhao Mu's brow, but he calmly withdrew his heavy spear. With a flick of the spear, the tip of the sword exploded with a dazzling light, and the two were evenly matched.
"This little wench is really strong, even stronger than Cang Li. It's just that she's too ugly, which makes her unappetizing. Otherwise, I would definitely have some fun with her later."
Cang Yue is not ugly at all; Zhao Mu's words were merely a deliberate attempt to humiliate her.
To kill someone is to destroy their spirit; this is the essence of the matter.
This woman's temper is like her breasts—large and bulging. This kind of humiliation can bring considerable benefits.
"How dare you call me ugly!"
As expected, Cang Yue's temper flared up instantly, and her attacks became increasingly fierce. However, Zhao Mu, who was fighting her, could clearly feel that her moves had become chaotic and were developing in a direction that was completely disordered.
"Cang Yue, calm down, don't let his words affect you."
Cang Lin reminded them from the side that he and Cang Lin had no qualms about ganging up on the weak. When Zhao Mu jumped out, they immediately surrounded and attacked him.
However, just as they made their move, a broadsword descended from the sky, blocking their path.
Jia Zheng stood on one leg on the hilt of his sword, arms crossed, looking down at his opponent with a contemptuous smile: "You two should just stay put. Little Sword King, who do you choose?"
Upon hearing this, Cang Lin and Cang Lin glanced sideways and happened to see Yan Lan standing proudly on the treetop.
"Yanlan, you're asking for death!"
"They dare to ambush us with just three people. They are incredibly audacious."
Although Cang Lin and Cang Lin verbally expressed their disdain, they secretly communicated and remained vigilant. Despite their arrogance, they would never disregard Yan Lan, as they had heard of the Little Sword King.
Moreover, Yanlan is the young sect master of the Amorous Sword Sect.
At the very least, they must be geniuses of the same level as them; otherwise, how could they be worthy of the title of Young Sect Master?
