Indeed, at this moment, still within this unique space, the Lei Yan King felt that this Secret Realm must be seized by him!
With the elevation of his realm, his combat power naturally became even more extraordinary.
Previously, even when Gles and Mu Qingyan joined forces, they might not be able to rival him, and those two are true peerless geniuses, genuine cultivators defying heaven.
Even such individuals were almost on par with his former self, and now, with the Lei Yan King’s power advancing further, he can naturally overpower these cultivators.
The Lei Yan King was not worried; relying on his abilities and his growing familiarity with the Time-Space Soul-locking Tower, he gradually discovered the Core Land of this realm.
This realm is a Secret Realm.
Since it’s a Secret Realm, naturally, there are some extraordinary things within it.
After gaining a deeper understanding of the Time-Space Soul-locking Tower, Lei Yan King gradually gleaned a bit of information about the Secret Realm from the insights he realized.
Indeed, with this little information, the Lei Yan King passed through a node in the basic Void and entered an Alternate Space, dim and infused with a pungent aroma.
It was a twisted world, not vast in scope, but within this world, there were distorted rays of light filling the sky.
These twisted rays contained extremely strong killing intent, which, if released, would be unimaginable.
The presence of halos was chaotic and furious; once erupted, even at the peak realm of the Nine Heavens Sword Venerate, it would be exceedingly perilous.
In this situation, even for the Lei Yan King, there was no room for any carelessness in response.
Yet upon seeing such a realm, the Lei Yan King instead felt a formless instinctual familiarity.
In this sense of familiarity, the Lei Yan King chose to trust his instincts. To confirm that these inexplicable ’familiar feelings’ are indeed of great benefit to him, he began to follow his instincts to endure the dangers of this twisted space.
This, one might say, was extraordinarily bold, for if a mistake were made, the worst outcome could be the dispersal of his soul and annihilation.
But the Lei Yan King didn’t hesitate and went ahead.
He shuttled through continuously, and amidst extreme peril, appeared as if he were taking a leisurely stroll, very peculiar.
Such a figure drew the attention of some cultivators from various other places.
Among these cultivators were Gles and Mu Qingyan.
Gles was far from the Lei Yan King, but amidst the twisted luster, it was not difficult to spot the Lei Yan King.
On the other hand, Mu Qingyan was only a few hundred meters away from the Lei Yan King, and this distance wasn’t at the side of Lei Yan King, but ahead of his path. Though not directly straight, based on the Lei Yan King’s mysterious walking pattern, it was very likely they would meet.
Seeing this scene, Gles felt extremely displeased but dared not lose focus, thereby merely glaring at Lei Yan King to express his anger.
In contrast, Mu Qingyan’s eyes slightly flickered with a complicated meaning upon realizing Lei Yan King’s arrival, clearly having some thoughts.
The Lei Yan King didn’t mind these things. While shuttling repeatedly, moving with his instincts in this exceedingly dangerous environment, he also quickly perceived the situations of a series of cultivators around him and thus gained a new understanding of the current situation.
The Lei Yan King’s speed was swift, and shortly thereafter, he found himself not far from Mu Qingyan.
At that moment, Mu Qingyan cast a cold glance at the Lei Yan King, showing no regard, displaying no favorable attitude whatsoever.
Evidently, some of the Lei Yan King’s previous actions left Mu Qingyan with much dissatisfaction.
Upon Lei Yan King’s arrival, Mu Qingyan was about to continue forward, but at that moment, the Lei Yan King took the initiative to speak again, reminding Mu Qingyan to be cautious.
"If you take that step, it will surely provoke the destructive killing intent of the Primordial Magnetic Pole Light. The intensity of the killing intent here is beyond imagination. Even at your realm, if not fatal, it would likely cause severe harm!"
Indeed, after the Lei Yan King softly spoke these words, everyone present was taken aback.
Soon after, cultivators like Gles cast extremely peculiar looks at Lei Yan King, as if mocking his foolishness.
But how could the Lei Yan King care about these?
When the true crisis unfolds, those questioning, sneering, and ridiculing gazes will completely change!
Lei Yan King’s words, besides eliciting boos and sneers, also drew attention from Mu Qingyan.
Even in this situation where friends and foes were hard to discern, Mu Qingyan actually acknowledged Lei Yan King’s statement. Although her judgment wasn’t as precise as Lei Yan King’s, she also had a very unique perspective on this matter.
Lei Yan King’s assertion was much more convenient and reasonable compared to her considerations and arrangements.
In reality, when faced with the infinite killing intent here, after everyone previously experienced its terrifying attack power, Mu Qingyan had been calculating and analyzing at other times. The reason she chose to hesitate now was indeed due to encountering a challenging decision.
Thus, upon hearing Lei Yan King’s analytical words, Mu Qingyan felt shocked and extremely surprised, not knowing what the Lei Yan King intended.
"Thank you."
Mu Qingyan indeed didn’t take that step.
That situation eased Lei Yan King’s expression considerably.
Lei Yan King glanced at the many distant cultivators, and through the endless twisting light, those he observed seemed completely distorted, their figures as if shattered.
This appearance seemed like an omen, a presage, indicating that this group of people would be ’shattered’.
A sudden thought emerged, as if he could glimpse the future, but the Lei Yan King didn’t dwell on this too much.
Apart from Mu Qingyan, he realized that these people weren’t worth his attention.
Moreover, when there was previous danger, he had already issued a warning, but it merely invited boos in return.
"No need, though entering this place puts you in a competitive relation with me, I stated I will obtain this Secret Realm, so I don’t care about the number of people you bring."
"Of course, I will take you inside and into the Core Land, but who can control the Secret Realm, claiming and refining it, depends on one’s own ability."
Lei Yan King thought for a moment and spoke calmly.
Mu Qingyan remained silent, without speaking.
At this time, not only Mu Qingyan, even Gles could see that Lei Yan King’s realm was no longer at the Earth Spirit Sky Sword Venerable level, but had crossed over a realm to become the Heavenly Spirit Sword Venerate.
Even a breakthrough in realm shouldn’t concern Gles.
However, the one breaking through was Lei Yan King, a person whose combat power was heaven-defyingly intimidating to the point of causing shivers, so after his breakthrough, Gles knew he was no longer a match for Lei Yan King.
Thus, seeing Lei Yan King voluntarily giving Mu Qingyan an entry opportunity, Gles couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh.
Judging by this situation, it was evident they had already lost.
Gles wasn’t foolish; understanding the current situation, he knew he indeed lost.
Acquiring the Secret Realm’s core control was almost an impossible prospect for him.
Indeed, as Gles was pondering this, Lei Yan King had already appeared not far in front of Mu Qingyan and, without saying much, took Mu Qingyan along, traversing through the twisted light.
The place originally of extreme danger posed no threat amidst Lei Yan King’s passage.
This vividly showcased the expressions of some, not aware of Lei Yan King’s ferocity, who were prepared to watch the spectacle.
And at this point, the Lei Yan King once more passed through an area of space where the brilliance was distorted, and suddenly saw rows of ancient Stone Gates ahead.
The Stone Gates resembled space portals formed by rings of light, allowing entry and exit at any moment, very mysterious.
Around the Stone Gates grew the ancient Life Ancient Trees.
Beside the Life Ancient Trees, traces of dampness were blood-red, resembling a small lake formed by boundless bloodwater.
