Chapter 2029: Exploring the Secret Realm

Ye Liuyun feels his Soul is too strong; acting directly might cause considerable loss, somewhat uneconomical.

Unless he can use his Soul to actively surge into Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness.

Letting a clone directly erase his Soul, Ye Liuyun still fears exposing himself, so he can only evade him for now.

Elder Ku Rong at this moment releases moisture from his body outward and begins absorbing surrounding spiritual energy; his desiccated skin is gradually returning to normal.

The formation platform beneath Ye Liuyun's feet also begins to activate.

He estimates this platform will soon teleport him away, and when Elder Ku Rong fully revives, he should no longer be visible.

"Elder Ku Rong's cultivation method is also far too dangerous.

If I had just used Yi Dao earlier, wouldn't I have cleaved him to death?

Or perhaps while he cultivates like this, he's impervious to blades and spears, not worrying about ambushes at all?"

Ye Liuyun continues to ponder this question in his mind.

With his Golden Pupil, he cannot see that Elder Ku Rong's desiccated dead skin could resist any attack.

The Formation quickly activates, and Ye Liuyun is teleported to the testing field.

Elder Ku Rong takes a moment before regaining his human form and opening his eyes.

He senses the spatial fluctuation of the opposite formation platform, smiles faintly, and murmurs, "Seems like a very special disciple!"

Saying that, he immediately rises and rushes toward the Sect's Grand Hall.

At this moment, inside the Grand Hall, Sect Leader Yao Dong Lai, accompanied by several Elders and the newly returned Mao Hongyin, are gathered around a massive crystal sphere, watching.

"It's coming in, it's coming in!"

Jin Qing Song calls out.

The crystal sphere they are watching displays the entire situation inside the Secret Realm.

Ye Liuyun's performance can be seen here clearly and distinctly.

After a short while, Elder Ku Rong also walks in.

Yao Dong Lai and the others immediately rise to pay their respects to him.

Though Elder Ku Rong is not the Sect Leader, his seniority and strength are great, and Yao Dong Lai dares not boast before him.

Elder Ku Rong nods and asks Yao Dong Lai, "Sect Leader, what is the situation with this disciple?"

Yao Dong Lai promptly replies, "Bloodline test white grade, Physical Body endures eighth-level Gravity Formation, combat test killed over three thousand members of the Foreign Tribe, Soul test emerged in less than half a minute."

At this time, many Elders speculate whether Elder Ku Rong also wishes to recruit a disciple.

So Jin Qing Song hurriedly adds, "He is still a Fifth Rank Alchemist!"

He worries Elder Ku Rong might compete with him for disciples.

Wu Kun also says, "He even understands Formation!"

Elder Ku Rong nods and tells them, "He can see through my cultivation state.

It's just a pity I haven't seen how he does it!"

Everyone hearing this is even more astonished.

Because when Elder Ku Rong cultivates, they cannot tell whether he is dead or alive.

At this moment, Ye Liuyun has already cast Elder Ku Rong aside in his mind.

He is teleported to the edge of a lake in the testing field.

With his Golden Pupil he can see clearly that the lake bottom holds treasure, but a giant python of Seventh Realm guards it.

Around the lake shore, Mi Lin surrounds it, and there are many ferocious beasts inside.

Moreover, the realms are almost between mid Sixth Layer and early Eighth Tier, most of which disciples cannot handle.

Presumably they were specially selected for testing.

He releases his Divine Sense and finds danger truly pervasive here.

Even beneath his feet, hundreds of sand mice fixate on him, gathering toward him.

The lake's giant python and the ferocious beasts in Mi Lin also stare at him, seeking a chance to strike.

"Seems this place is truly dangerous for ordinary people!"

Yet there are plenty of good things here.

Ye Liuyun briefly uses his Divine Sense to probe and already discovers several resource-rich locations.

"First, let's assess the overall situation of the Secret Realm!"

Ye Liuyun, thinking this, immediately takes out his pair of treasure wings, puts them on, rockets skyward, using Sky-walking Boots and the wings' combined speed, sprinting with all force toward the highest peak inside the Secret Realm.

Along the way he encounters flying birds, but none are as fast as Ye Liuyun, failing to catch him.

Occasionally ground beasts leap to devour him, yet Ye Liuyun deftly evades them.

Yet just as Ye Liuyun reaches the peak, a golden eagle swoops down from the summit.

This golden eagle is not only large in size but also high in realm, having reached early Eighth Tier.

Ye Liuyun immediately turns and darts toward the Mi Lin below.

Upon entering Mi Lin, he employs the shadow concealment technique, hiding behind a large tree.

Though the golden eagle is of Eighth Tier, its Divine Soul Power is not as strong as Ye Liuyun's.

It flies over Ye Liuyun's head without noticing his presence.

Ye Liuyun, just relieved to have evaded that golden eagle's attack, suddenly notices several carnivorous flowers surrounding him.

They hunt by scent; even though Ye Liuyun concealed his form, they can still locate his position.

The carnivorous flowers' realm is not high, but their vines are extremely resilient; once entangled, they are hard to break free.

Moreover, there are so many of them.

The entire Mi Lin is filled with such things.

Ye Liuyun now has a golden eagle searching overhead and man‑eating flowers attacking below; he can't run even if he tries.

He immediately gathers the treasure wing and wraps himself in it.

That wing is made of metal, so the man‑eating flowers definitely can't bite through it.

Moreover, the man‑eating flowers are of a low realm, so they shouldn't be able to affect this treasure.

When Ye Liuyun moves, the golden eagle instantly spots him, swoops down, and claws at him.

The golden eagle's huge talons even crush the big tree behind Ye Liuyun.

In a flash of wit, Ye Liuyun uses Space Translocation to shift those man‑eating flowers to the air above him, so the golden eagle gets tangled in them first.

Then Ye Liuyun keeps translocating the incoming man‑eating flowers, hurling them onto the golden eagle's legs and wings.

Those man‑eating flowers aren't afraid, and their roots and stems are surprisingly long.

Not only can they bite the golden eagle, the vines also begin to coil upward.

So Ye Liuyun continuously shifts the man‑eating flowers upward, throwing them onto the golden eagle.

But at this moment the golden eagle's claws have already descended, and it still snatches Ye Liuyun with a swift grab.

It too gets wrapped by the man‑eating flowers; realizing the danger, it immediately flaps its wings to fly away.

Yet its wings are entangled by the man‑eating flowers, making the flapping clumsy and unable to lift.

Moreover, more man‑eating flowers climb up along the vines of the others toward it.

Adding to that, its own massive size causes it to quickly fall into the Mi Lin.

Boom— the massive body of the golden eagle crashes down, flattening a swath of the Mi Lin.

As it drops, all the man‑eating flowers instantly pounce on it.

The golden eagle lets out a mournful, piercing screech while struggling.

Though its realm is high, its only weapons are its sharp beak and talons, or its wing beats.

But now its wings are bound, and in some places it simply cannot peck.

And the man‑eating flowers swarm over it densely; it cannot clear them, and they bury it within themselves.
