Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

#1445 - Plants suspected to be from a higher cosmic civilization

For Jun Wuxie, the Azure Dragon Gorge Secret Realm was mysterious and unknown.

Passing through the entrance to the Secret Realm led to a desolate, red land.

As far as the eye could see, the land was arid, the mountains fractured, and besides the soil and rocks, there was no vegetation to be seen. It could be said that not a single blade of grass grew.

The sky was somewhat dim, giving the place a feeling of oppression.

"This place must have been swept by a special energy, causing the land to lose all its vitality…"

After observing, he made his judgment and immediately brought Yan Qingcheng and Ling Qingyu out of the Eight-Nine Profound Palace.

"Is this the interior of the Azure Dragon Gorge Secret Realm?"

Yan Qingcheng and Ling Qingyu surveyed their surroundings and also felt somewhat oppressed, shocked by the desolate scene before them.

This place was like a land of extinction. They could not sense any vitality, as if they had entered a realm of death!

They tried to release their divine sense to perceive a wider area, but found that their divine sense perception was greatly limited and weakened, not even as far as they could see with their eyes.

"Don't bother trying. Divine sense is almost useless in this area. There is a special order that restricts divine sense perception. It should have been deliberately set by the strong person who left this Secret Realm to prevent future generations from being consumed by internal strife when they enter this area to hunt for targets."

Jun Wuxie said.

After speaking, he noticed that Yan Qingcheng and Ling Qingyu were both looking at him expectantly.

"Don't look at me like that. I know you can't bear to be separated from me, but if you want to obtain more opportunities, you must act alone."

Jun Wuxie reached out and embraced them, "I hope we can all reach the Saint Ancestor Realm in this Secret Realm."

"Then you have to work hard. Our cultivation levels are higher than yours now."

After Ling Qingyu spoke, she tiptoed and quickly kissed him on the cheek, then instantly flew away without looking back, only her voice drifting back: "Husband, take care, don't worry about Qingyu!"

Jun Wuxie touched the spot on his face where Ling Qingyu had kissed him and couldn't help but smile, "She left so decisively."

"Qingyu is too reserved,"

Yan Qingcheng murmured. Jun Wuxie turned to look at her, but before he could react, Yan Qingcheng wrapped her arms around his neck, and her charming red lips pressed against his.

"Husband is only one person, and there are so many sisters. Being demure and reserved won't do. You have to be passionate and unrestrained!"

After she finished speaking, she giggled, pushed against Jun Wuxie's chest with her fair hand, and used the force to fly backward, "Husband, your little enchantress is leaving. I'll miss you!"

Her voice gradually faded away. Yan Qingcheng's speed was very fast, and in a moment, her figure was only a small dot in Jun Wuxie's sight.

"Yan Enchantress, you're still teasing me here. Wait until we get out of the Secret Realm and see how I deal with you."

Jun Wuxie felt the blood in his body heating up.

He quickly calmed the fire in his body and then brought Mu Ciyin out of the Eight-Nine Profound Palace.

Mu Ciyin looked at the surrounding environment and didn't say anything. She knew that they were now inside the Azure Dragon Gorge Secret Realm.

"Wuxie, which direction should we go now?"

"I don't know either. Let's just pick a direction at random and leave this area where divine sense perception is extremely limited."

After Jun Wuxie finished speaking, he soared into the air and headed straight ahead. He was as bright as the sun, his chaotic golden blood energy blooming, as if carrying a vast ocean, dazzling and radiant.

Mu Ciyin walked alongside him, glancing at him sideways, "Why are you making such a display?"

"Of course, it's to tell those who want my life where I am."

He indicated that the people from the Soul Hunting Hall had probably entered the Azure Dragon Gorge Secret Realm by some special means.

Mu Ciyin was shocked, "The formation at the entrance to the Azure Dragon Gorge Secret Realm is extraordinary. What means could they have?"

She was well aware that even an Eternal Giant could not deceive the formation's perception.

"Master Ciyin, there are dark powerhouses behind the Soul Hunting Sacred Hall, so we can't underestimate them. Perhaps the dark powerhouses behind them won't appear for some reason, but it's not impossible for them to provide some assistance."

Mu Ciyin was silent upon hearing this. She realized that her understanding of the Soul Hunting Sacred Hall was far less than his. Since he said so, it was very likely that such a thing would happen.

A quarter of an hour later, they finally walked out of this barren red land, and the green of vegetation appeared in their sight.

The green mountains were like ink, and the rushing river meandered like a great dragon.

Looking at the green mountains and clear waters from this red land was a peculiar sight.

At the boundary between the two different environments, the sky on this side was dim, while the sky on the other side was filled with clouds and sunshine, clear and sunny, with picturesque scenery.

As soon as they entered the area of green mountains and clear waters, the aura of life rushed towards them, like a surging tide, suddenly stepping from a place of extinct life into a vibrant and beautiful world.

"What rich Saint Spiritual Energy!"

Jun Wuxie breathed in the air between heaven and earth, which contained pure vitality energy, making people feel very comfortable.

The concentration and quality of such Saint Spiritual Energy were no less than that of his imperial dynasty's environment.

"No wonder everyone says that there are countless opportunities inside the Azure Dragon Gorge Secret Realm. In such an environment, over the long years, I don't know how many natural treasures will be born."

Mu Ciyin couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

"There are still restrictions on divine sense perception here. Our divine sense perception range is far less than it was outside. The solidity of the space here is also much stronger than outside. I feel some unusual origin aura, although it is very faint, it is clear!"

Jun Wuxie looked at the surrounding environment and couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise.

He landed on the ground, falling on the green grass, and found that these grasses were surprisingly tough, able to easily bear the weight of his body, without even a slight bend in the tips.

"This…"

Jun Wuxie was even more shocked. The vegetation here was extraordinary.

It should be known that the grass under his feet was just ordinary weeds, not any kind of heavenly spiritual essence, not any kind of holy medicine, but its level of life was obviously different from the grasses he had previously known.

Cultivators can achieve a leap in life and change their level of life through cultivation, and flowers and plants can also do the same!

"This teacher has never heard of ordinary plants having such tenacity…"

Mu Ciyin felt incredible about this. She walked back and forth on the grass, but the tips of the grass were as tough as steel at the moment of force.

When the breeze blew, these grasses rose and fell with the wind.

"Master Ciyin, I have a premonition that we may obtain unimaginable gains in this Azure Dragon Gorge!"

Jun Wuxie told her that, according to what he knew, these lands in the Azure Dragon Gorge Secret Realm definitely did not belong to the Upper Realm, and even the ordinary plants of the Divine Ancient World could not reach this level.

"Wuxie, are you saying that the Azure Dragon Gorge Secret Realm may come from a universe more advanced than the Divine Ancient World?"

Mu Ciyin was shocked in her heart. A world more advanced than the Divine Ancient World, what kind of universe would that be?

"It's possible. Anyway, this has already exceeded my knowledge."

Jun Wuxie could be considered knowledgeable compared to the people of the Upper Realm. He had cultivated to the Supreme God Realm, entered many secret realms and lands of the Divine Ancient World, seen many strange things, and had a deep reserve of cultivation knowledge.

"Come, let's take a look at the others."

He walked towards the nearby trees, trying to break the branches. At first, he used the limit force that ordinary branches outside could withstand, but it didn't move at all. Then he gradually increased the force.

When the branches finally snapped with a crack, both he and Mu Ciyin were shocked.

According to the force he had just used, the limit force that chopsticks-thick branches could withstand must have reached hundreds of millions of pounds.

"There is no special force protecting these plants. I don't know if they inherently possess such resistance to bending, or if they have undergone transformation and strengthening by absorbing special energy in this Azure Dragon Gorge Secret Realm…"

He felt incredible. Such a small branch required a cultivator who had entered the Saint Realm to use most of their strength to break it.

What kind of concept was this?

If it were replaced with the trunk of a big tree, even a Saint King would not be able to do anything about it, requiring the power of a Great Saint!

They continued to go deeper and then discovered that not all plants were like this. Only some had amazing toughness.

After repeated research and analysis, they concluded that it should be that the plants themselves were different.

Because they found that although the structure of these plants was similar to that of ordinary plants, there were also some slight differences. It was these subtle differences that made them exceptionally tough.

"Are these plants really from a higher level of world civilization?"

Jun Wuxie and Mu Ciyin were both very doubtful in their hearts. They had such suspicions and guesses, but they could not draw a conclusion.

As they walked, roars came from the distance. Beasts were fighting, and the sound shook the mountains.

Following the sound, they saw a giant python hundreds of meters long under a cliff of a large mountain. The scales on its body were huge, shimmering with a faint light, and its blood energy was as strong as the sea. It was confronting a group of jackals that were even larger than elephants.

There was a cave under the mountain wall behind the python. The cave was covered with vines, and a three-foot-tall sapling grew near the entrance. Its leaves were sparse, flowing with green light, and bearing a dragon-shaped fruit, as red as blood, exuding a special aura.

"That fruit is of a very high grade. Special energy surrounds it, and the fruit is constantly absorbing that energy. If I'm not mistaken, the python is nourishing the fruit. Now that the fruit is about to mature, the python has also become weak due to long-term nourishment of the fruit. These jackals are taking the opportunity to attack. It seems they are old rivals."

Jun Wuxie observed with his talismanic pupils and saw the clues.

"That python is still in the Saint Ancestor Realm, as are those jackals. That fruit should be able to help the python break through."

After Mu Ciyin finished speaking, she was about to take the fruit from the air, but Jun Wuxie grabbed her fair wrist.

"Forget it."

He shook his head at Mu Ciyin, indicating that the fruit was special but of little use to human cultivators. Perhaps some alchemists might find a unique purpose for it, but even that was uncertain.

"The environment of the Azure Dragon Gorge Secret Realm is clearly different from previous years. My father-in-law told me about the situation inside the Azure Dragon Gorge, based on information brought out by those who had entered the Secret Realm in the past. But it wasn't like this in previous years. It seems that the great era is the reason. The good things in the Azure Dragon Gorge Secret Realm will be beyond imagination. Let's continue searching for other things."

Mu Ciyin was a little surprised, astonished that he would give up so easily. Just as she was about to say something, a cold light bloomed in her ice-snow-like, clear and delicate eyes.

"Someone's coming."

She looked to the south. There was nothing there at first, but soon several black shadows appeared in her line of sight. Even with the restrictions of the Secret Realm's order, their speed was extremely fast, like black streamers cutting through the sky.

"Where is he?"

Three black-robed men came to this area, hovering in the sky above the mountains, their ink-black eyes, devoid of any white, coldly scanning the surroundings.

"We clearly saw the blood energy light suspected to be Jun Wuxie's tracking us here, how could we suddenly lose all traces of his aura?"

They hovered in the air, communicating, holding black Soul-Reaping Scythes. The aura of the Saint Ancestor realm was released, alarming the confronting jackal pack and python.

The jackal pack all looked at the three uninvited guests in the distance with cold eyes. The python was the same, its snake eyes were icy, and runes of light lit up on its body.

"Hmm? I didn't expect there to be an exotic fruit here!"

A Saint Ancestor powerhouse from the Soul Hunting Temple let out a cold laugh and said, "Jun Wuxie, come out, don't hide, you can't hide."

"You want to seize this exotic fruit, so you're hiding in this area. I have to say, your concealment technique is remarkable, we can't even sense your location. However, if you think you can escape our hunt like this, you're daydreaming. Unless you remain completely still forever, otherwise, as long as you make the slightest movement, you will be exposed!"

"Well, come out, we will let you die more quickly. You were invincible in the Lower Realm, destroying my Lower Realm Soul Hunting Temple, thinking you were great, but you don't know you're on a path to death! In this Secret Realm, without the means of a silver-haired符師, crushing you is no different from crushing an ant."

The three Saint Ancestor powerhouses of the Soul Hunting Temple were high above, with an air of control over life and death.

"You guys are a little slow."

Jun Wuxie and Mu Ciyin suddenly walked out of the shadows, not very far from the three Saint Ancestors of the Soul Hunting Temple.

This made the pupils of the three Saint Ancestor powerhouses of the Soul Hunting Temple shrink slightly.

They were sure that Jun Wuxie must be hiding here, but they didn't expect him to be hiding so close, yet they didn't sense any fluctuations from him.

This Jun Wuxie even has a woman by his side!

Who is this woman? Is there such a person among the young talents of the Ling family of the demon race?

"Tell me, how do you want to die?"

They didn't take Jun Wuxie's words, "You guys are a little slow," to heart.

A Saint Emperor is nothing in front of a Saint Ancestor once he is separated from the protection of the 符師. No matter how heaven-defying his secret techniques and growth are, they are useless!

"You treat me as prey, have you ever thought that you are the prey?"

Jun Wuxie walked towards the three Soul Hunting powerhouses, his words indifferent.

"What a joke! You dare to speak wildly when death is imminent!"

A Saint Ancestor realm Soul Hunter, surrounded by black light, directly covered him with his palm, wanting to suppress him.

At this moment, Jun Wuxie gently snapped his fingers, and runes appeared all over the sky, directly imprisoning the palm in the air.

The Soul Hunter who made the move was shocked, and found that his hand could not move. He wanted to break free, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't, and a look of horror appeared in his eyes.
