Chapter 2848: Adapting to the Heavy Pressure

Zhu Que and the Hunting Falcon's test flight attracted a nearby wolf pack. Though these wolves' realms are low, they are numerous—over fifty—and have already adapted to the pressure here, running at very high speed.

Ye Liuyun immediately released the many women from the Duplicate Space World, letting them also adapt to the heavy pressure here, treating it as body refining.

The people in his Space World have recently been strengthening their Divine Soul and Physical Body, so when the women emerged, although some were surprised and flustered, none were crushed by the heavy pressure.

Magic Vine, Heishan, Heihu and Liao Tianyang—four Unified Realm strongmen—were also released by him and his duplicate, letting them adapt to the environment here, lest they be at a disadvantage when confronting Unified Realm opponents.

Their Divine Senses were strong, and they quickly noticed the wolves surrounding them, all ready for battle.

"These wolves have low realms, roughly at the Dominating First and Second Realm level, perfect for us to practice," Ye Liuyun warned everyone. "Don't get careless!"

In fact, no one needed his words; they wouldn't be careless, because each wolf's size was enormous, already surpassing that of their Monster Beasts.

Shi Yuan let out a roar, first revealing his true form—three heads, six arms, brandishing six weapons—and charged forward. His body turned to stone, making him indifferent to the heavy pressure. Moreover, his stature of over a hundred zhang matched the size of the local ferocious beasts.

Other Monster Beasts also revealed their true forms and surged forward, including Heishan and Magic Vine. Long Nv's Bloodline Pressure caused the wolves to hesitate even before she got close, making them wonder if they had provoked the wrong person.

But seeing the true dragon's tiny size, they couldn't resist the lure and kept charging.

Ye Liuyun, his duplicate, and Liao Tianyang protected the women in the middle, bearing the heavy pressure as they charged forward to deal with the lower‑realm wolves.

Shi Yuan, a primitive ancient strain, thrived here like a fish in water, completely unaffected; with a few booming strikes, he used a Bluetooth rod to smash several of the leading big wolves.

Lei Ming and Long Nv fought hard against several big wolves. Their Physical Bodies were robust, so they need not worry about injury, even if

their bodies were not agile and got hit, they still would not be injured.

Nine-Head Demon Dragon, Zhu Que and the Hunting Falcon attacked from above, slaying a wolf, then flew to block the wolves' retreat, preventing their escape.

Heihu and Bai Hu both relied on their Physical Bodies to clash head‑on with two big wolves. Xiao Lan Bing used Ice Power to freeze one, while Chi Lian first absorbed a wolf's Bloodline Power to test it, found the local ferocious beasts' Bloodline Power very strong, and couldn't stop, sucking one after another…

Then all the Monster Beasts turned and encircled the wolves, preventing their escape, allowing Chi Lian to absorb as much Bloodline Power as possible, then distribute it to them.

Magic Vine's strength was completely unaffected here, so it disdainfully refrained from striking these low‑realm ferocious beasts, staying aside to watch them practice.

The wolves tasked with attacking Ye Liuyun's group paid no heed to the humans, lunging at them as food.

Although the women were hindered in movement, they still tried to strike and contend with the wolves. Ye Liuyun and his duplicate punched the wolves. Those wolves, though low‑realm, were still sizable due to their weight and innate strength. They couldn't defeat Ye Liuyun, yet they weren't battered severely by his blows.

A Xing, Piao Yun, Qing Yan and Lin Feier had to pair up two by two to fight a wolf; otherwise they would be unable to block the wolves' onslaught.

After a burst of booming sounds, the wolves that engaged Ye Liuyun's group were nearly all severely wounded, lying scattered. Chi Lian immediately came over and harvested their Bloodline Power. Zhu Que helped the ferocious beasts devour their Divine Soul Power. Then the beasts excavated the Yuan Dan, reserving it as cultivation material.

After this battle, Ye Liuyun's party had adapted considerably to the heavy pressure here. The women, who had previously moved laboriously, now unleashed their potential in danger, and after a hard‑fought clash their movements became much smoother. However, they could only use Spirit Stones or Primordial Power to cultivate and restore True Essence.

Ye Liuyun waited a while, letting them recover some True Essence, then led everyone onward to continue exploring the surroundings. Chi Lian also distributed the Bloodline Power she had absorbed to the ferocious beasts.

At that moment she only absorbed a little.

So as not to raise her realm too quickly and cause instability. Zhu Que only helped the Monster Beasts boost their Divine Soul Power, not absorbing it herself.

Nine-Head Demon Dragon, Zhu Que and the Hunting Falcon all assumed human form to conserve energy, forgoing aerial flight and avoiding being targeted by the stronger ferocious beasts here.

Ye Liuyun's group swept around the entrance area, using Golden Pupil to locate many ferocious beasts, giving everyone a chance to practice and increasingly adapting to the heavy pressure.

Ye Liuyun not only let the Ten Thousand Gods Command and Yuan Dan absorb the ambient mystic energy, but his and his duplicate's Space World also drew this mystic energy inward.

The other Monster Beasts did the same, siphoning this power into their Space Worlds for later use. Only Liang Xue and the other women could not absorb mystic energy, so they did not draw it into the Space World.

Ye Liuyun led everyone to clear some Monster Beasts, occupying their territory, then had the Hunting Falcon lift him into the sky, using Golden Pupil to survey the Secret Realm.

After observing for a while, Ye Liuyun finally discovered the Martial Cultivators who had previously fled in.

They gathered, seized a hilltop and claimed it as their domain, evidently too fearful to leave. Yet their True Essence was abundant, suggesting they brought sufficient cultivation resources.

Their numbers were modest—just over fifty—comprising ten Unified Realm Martial Cultivators and more than forty Dominating Ninefold Martial Cultivators.

However, their location was not deep within the Secret Realm. Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil saw, far off, a black pond at the core, but he saw no ferocious beasts inside.

Other spots were similar; his Golden Pupil was obstructed, likely by a Formation.

He also saw ferocious beasts deep in the Secret Realm, including Dominating Ninefold beasts; the farther in, the stronger the beasts.

Ye Liuyun got the gist, then ordered the Hunting Falcon to descend. They now could only fly within their own territories, daring not to cross other beasts' airspace. If they encountered a powerful flying creature, the Hunting Falcon and other Monster Beasts would likely be at a disadvantage.

The ferocious beasts here can absorb mystic energy to replenish True Essence at any time, whereas Zhu Que and the Hunting Falcon's consumption is high and they are not yet adapted to absorbing mystic energy, so they cannot yet engage in direct combat.
