Chapter 128: End of the Secret Realm’s Journey
“Friends from Jiangzhou University, how about we deal with this monster together? After we get rid of this monster, we can divide the treasure with you evenly!”
Seeing Ye Xuan’s group arrive from afar, Xu Feng from Wanshan University’s eyes lit up as he shouted towards them.
After arriving at the Tens of Thousands Corpse Lake, he knew that the small yellow flower that rooted itself in the sky was unordinary with just a glance.
However, the Mutated Netherworld Corpse King was too difficult.
In addition to that, the Mutated Netherworld Corpse King was not the only monster in the lake.
He and over a dozen beast tamers had been engaged in an intense battle with the Mutated Netherworld Corpse King for a long time but had yet to take it down.
Not only that, he was feeling it was getting more and more difficult to fight against it.
It was as if the monster’s strength was actually increasing as time went on.
Also, they had tried to pick the small yellow flower beside the Mutated Netherworld Corpse King a few times but had not succeeded.
The Mutated Netherworld Corpse King’s guarding of the small yellow flower could be said to have reached an insane level.
“Work together with us and share the treasure evenly after?
Ye Xuan could not help but chuckle after hearing his suggestion.
Earlier, these people from Wanshan University started to follow them immediately after they stepped into the secret realm.
They had ill intentions.
However, now that they experienced the Netherworld Corpse King’s prowess, they actually started to ask for their help. Ye Xuan could not help but feel amused at that moment.
He could not help to wonder, if he led Lin Zhibai and the others to help join up with the Wanshan University group and defeat the Netherworld Corpse King, would they really evenly share the treasure with them like it was suggested?
“Ye Xuan, what should we do?” Lin Zhibai asked after looking at Ye Xuan.
By then, he was already aware of some of Ye Xuan’s personality traits.
He knew that Ye Xuan would absolutely not work together with Wanshan University.
He wondered whether they should give the Wanshan University group a shove while they were down.
After all, the rivalry between Wanshan and Jiangzhou University had long reached its peak.
Just like how Xu Feng and his group wanted to mess with them immediately after stepping into the secret realm…
The students of each university would clash, and sparks would fly wherever and whenever they met in the secret realm.
In this accidental encounter with Wanshan University, he felt it would not be right if they did not mess them up at least once.
“To push them while they’re down?”
Ye Xuan’s heart rippled a little, but he did not agree nor reject the notion.
After a moment of silence, he said, “You guys don’t have to do anything this time. Observe.”
After that, he looked towards Xu Feng’s group from afar.
That included the Mutated Netherworld Corpse King that Xu Feng’s group was currently fighting.
The next moment, his mind moved, and he shifted his gaze towards one side of the Mutated Netherworld Corpse King.
Whoosh!
After that, Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings appeared at that exact location along with violent and intense crackling electricity.
Hmm?
Upon seeing Heavenly Punishment, Thundercloud Wings suddenly appear beside the Mutated Netherworld Corpse King; the people from Wanshan University were startled.
However, before they could react, the crackling electricity on Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings’ body branched out, and in the blink of an eye, a completely identical body appeared.
Then, as if it was a warrior who treated death as if going home, one of the bodies held the Heavenly Punishment Thunder Spear in its hands and thrust it upward toward the Mutated Netherworld Corpse King as it reacted and was hurling a punch towards it.
The other body’s golden thunder wings transformed into a stream of light and, with a flash, arrived in front of the small yellow flower in the sky.
Then, with a simple swing of the sharp spear in its hands, it easily plucked the small yellow flower in the sky.
The lightning crackling all around the spear did not even put a scratch on the flower.
After picking the small yellow flower, the body transformed back into a thick beam of lightning. With a loud boom, flew behind a megalodon fighting against the Netherworld Corpse King before shooting up into the air towards the Jiangzhou University group.
“Rumble!”
Simultaneously, the clone of Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings crashed into the giant fist swung by the angered Mutated Netherworld Corpse King.
Accompanied by a loud boom, the clone of the Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings was sent flying seven to eight meters away.
However, after being struck by its lightning attack, the Mutated Netherworld Corpse King’s body trembled.
Even though it was two levels higher than Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings, at that moment, the smell of burned and charred meat immediately started to fill the air.
“Roar!”
The Mutated Netherworld Corpse King became even more infuriated.
It raised its head and roared.
The moment it opened its mouth, a tongue made up of several dozen corpses connected flew out of its mouth and headed directly towards the Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings’ clone.
However, after its clone took a blow from the Mutated Netherworld Corpse King, Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings had already made its clone fly away.
It did not even bother staying to fight against the Mutated Netherworld Corpse King.
If the Mutated Netherwolrd Corpse King wanted a playmate, it was better off playing with those from Wanshan University.
“F*ck!”
“Bastards of Jiangzhou University!”
Upon seeing what had happened in front of them – Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings appearing and then instantaneously taking away the small yellow flower they coveted and had been fighting for all the while, Wanshan University’s Xu Feng and the rest were left frustrated and exasperated.
“Roar!”
However, just as they were feeling great exasperation, the Mutated Netherworld Corpse King, after seeing the treasure that it had been guarding snatched away, roared in anger and directed all its anger towards the people from Wanshan University.
It charged at them in a frenzy.
Which made it impossible for them to pursue Ye Xuan’s group even if they wanted to.
Rumble, rumble, rumble!
The Mutated Netherworld Corpse King took a step forward. Just like a frenzied sea monster, it concentrated all its force into its fist before swinging it into a beast in front of it.
“Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!”
Seeing this, the Wanshan University students grimaced.
The treasure that they wanted had been snatched away by the people from Jiangzhou University.
Staying there and fighting against the Mutated Netherworld Corpse King no longer had any meaning.
If they were strong enough to defeat this Mutated Netherworld Corpse King and bring it back to campus, they might have still been able to earn a huge profit.
However, with the Mutated Netherworld Corpse King getting stronger as time progressed, they did not have an opportunity to do that.
“Let’s go.”
At the same time, after Ye Xuan made his move, he led Lin Zhibai and the others to leave the Tens of Thousands Corpse Lake.
“Sh*t, Ye Xuan, isn’t this ability of yours too awesome?”
“Yeah, man, I feel like even if we weren’t here on this trip, Ye Xuan, you yourself would’ve still been able to do better than everyone.”
As they were leaving, Lin Zhibai and the others could not help but admire Ye Xuan when they thought of what had just occurred.
An ability that allowed a person to directly summon his or her beast to a location a few hundred meters away… It was really an enviable ability.
Moreover, throughout the journey, Ye Xuan had done this more than once.
While they were at the Wanfen Mountains, Ye Xuan used the same method to deal with most of the monsters they encountered. He would directly summon and instruct Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings to snatch away the hidden treasures the monsters were guarding.
During this time, many monsters guarded their treasures and lost their treasures to Ye Xuan before they could even wrap their heads around what had been going on.
To the point where, even though the other members of Ye Xuan’s group knew they were there to assist Ye Xuan, in reality, they had become a group of tourists who were following Ye Xuan around after they entered the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm.
“If it weren’t for you guys, my Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings might not have advanced to the bronze level yet.”
Facing Lin Zhibai and the others’ admiration, Ye Xuan answered with a chuckle.
“I wonder what kind of treasure is this small yellow flower.”
After that, his gaze focused on the peculiar-looking tiny flower that Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings had just plucked for him.
Ye Xuan looked at the peculiar-looking small yellow flower; he briefly examined it and did not dare touch it with his hands. Instead, he placed it inside his beast ring, just as he would with his other beasts.
He decided to hand it over to Lin Shiru or the other teachers at Jiangzhou University and ask for their help in appraising the item after returning.
Actually, his personal combat watch had marked multiple treasures in the realm. However, none of them matched the small yellow flower.
“Rumble, rumble, rumble!”
Suddenly, just as Ye Xuan placed the small yellow flower into his beast ring, he felt a jab in his mind as if he had suddenly sensed something.
In response, he quickly raised his head and looked afar.
Simultaneously, Lin Zhibai and the others around him had also raised their head suddenly to look somewhere far away.
“Rumble, rumble, rumble.
Just as they raised their heads, they saw, at the horizon, numerous white skeletons had gathered together and formed a vast ocean of white skeletons, and they were heading towards them.
“Holy sh*t!”
“White Bone Plains?
“Don’t tell me the White Bone Plains extends to this place?”
Seeing the ocean of white skeletons, Ye Xuan and the others could not help but feel a chill at the bottom of their hearts.
They were currently located close to the Tens of Thousands Corpse Lake.
Between the Tens of Thousands Corpse Lake and the White Bone Plains was the Wanfen Mountains.
Where had the Wanfen Mountains, where they spent many hours wandering around, gone?
Had it been completely submerged by these white skeletons?
In an instant, great fear filled their hearts.
If the mutation that spread across the entire secret realm were to affect them, would they be able to resist it?
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In an instant, while feeling horrified, most of them increased the flying altitude of their beasts.
“Hurry! Hurry!”
“The mutation of the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm is most certainly caused by the world crack of the other side. We need to hurry up and send the students back!”
Outside the secret realm, Jiangzhou University’s Ren Ya and the teachers of the other universities were, at that moment, releasing their mind energy quickly to connect to the portal of the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm.
While they were outside the secret realm, they could immediately sense the secret realm’s situation through this portal.
They could even sense it if students inside the realm were to bring a beast that did not belong to themselves along, as long as they summoned the beast out inside the realm.
They could directly use the black portal to snap images in the secret realm.
And at that moment, it was through this black portal that they detected a huge anomaly inside the entire Mini Netherworld Secret Realm.
Upon feeling the anomaly, everyone instantly began to take action.
“What is going on?”
Almost immediately after Ren Ya and the other teachers started taking action, the students of each respective university within the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm noticed the sudden appearance of a spatial vortex beside them.
