Gao Wu: Others practice martial arts, but you cultivate immortality?

"Chief, the passage to Secret Realm Seven has been disrupted..."

"Understood." The middle-aged man's face remained expressionless as he rubbed something that resembled a Rubik's Cube in his hand.

Ripples spread continuously from the Rubik's Cube and disappeared into the surrounding void.

"Maintain the status quo and don't alert the enemy."

"yes......"

......

Chu Yuan was speechless at Xiang Ning's gritted teeth, but he didn't have time to waste any more words with him.

He simply pretended that the other person didn't exist and began to read the "Golden Yuan Technique" in his hand.

This technique is indeed of high quality. While reading it, he even sensed a faint spiritual will within the book.

Although it's not powerful and doesn't have any other effects, it seems to help practitioners get started more easily...

Fortunately, after Chu Yuan began cultivating immortality, his soul was strengthened time and time again. Even though the Golden Yuan Technique contained a great deal of material, he was able to memorize it after reading it once.

He closed his eyes, mobilized the spiritual energy within his body, and tried to circulate it according to the route of the Golden Yuan Technique.

Actually, the stone platform is not a suitable place for cultivation, especially with Li Ji and Qi Ying still here.

But the outside world may be even more dangerous!

Anyway, Chu Yuan wasn't going into deep seclusion for cultivation; he just wanted to get the basics of the Golden Yuan Technique.

The system will naturally handle all subsequent issues...

When Xiang Ning saw that Chu Yuan really meant it, he narrowed his eyes slightly.

But he didn't leave. He sat to the side, his hands supporting him on the ground, quietly watching the stone platform.

He knew from the beginning that Chu Yuan was extraordinary!

What I said before was half true and half false. This trial is indeed because of the Martial God's Talisman... but since it has been offered as a trial reward, it's hard to say who will end up in its hands!

Now that things are out in the open, everything must be done according to the rules!

The important figure who initiated the trial was himself a maintainer of the rules; otherwise, even if he directly gave the Martial God Scroll to his descendant, who could say a word against it?

Therefore, Xiang Ning also came for this martial arts manual created by the former director of the Zhenwu Bureau!

Before entering the secret realm, he had already gathered information on the genius teenagers of various prefectures with the help of his family.

The main targets are the major martial arts families!

But Chu Yuan was not among them...

It wasn't because someone had blocked Chu Yuan's information, but because Xiang Ning had never paid attention to a small city like Chenyang City in the first place.

When he first met Chu Yuan, he discovered that Chu Yuan was extremely fast, even faster than him!

Just now, he easily dismissed Qi Ying...

If that's all there is to it, it might just mean that Chu Yuan has extremely high martial arts talent.

But then he produced Blood Pills and Spirit Nourishing Pills, pills that even he had never seen before... So there's no doubt that Chu Yuan also has a mysterious background!

Therefore, he vaguely guessed that perhaps... Chu Yuan was that pile of 'vinegar'?

"Xiang Ning, come here." Mao Rui waved from afar;

Xiang Ning shook his head and did not get up.

So Mao Rui ran over...

"What's he doing here? Is this guy... cultivating?" Mao Rui looked at Xiang Ning, then at Chu Yuan, and immediately felt a deep respect.

"hold head high."

"Alright... Xiang Ning, there are Inner Breath Realm trial participants from various states holding a meeting over there. Want to go join the fun?"

"I find it quite lively watching them here," Xiang Ning said lazily. "Fatty, don't hang out with them."

"No, there are a few girls with pretty good figures there, and we're just killing time anyway..." Mao Rui said somewhat reluctantly, "Really not going?"

"I'm not going."

"What are you doing here? Are you going to protect this guy?"

Xiang Ning couldn't help but laugh and said, "Protect him my ass! He just finished reading the Golden Yuan Technique and can't enter a deep cultivation state."

"Don't believe me? Punch him and see if he jumps up and kills you."

"...Golden Yuan Technique? How come it's the same as the technique you prepared? What's this guy's background?"

"If it's not the same cultivation technique I prepared... then it's mine!"

"Ah, this..." Mao Rui was stunned for a moment, a complicated expression on his face: "You gave him the Golden Yuan Technique that your family prepared for you?"

I was wondering why you seemed to dislike girls; now I know...

Xiang Ning, you're sick!

If your grandfather finds out, won't he break your legs?

Xiang Ning took a deep breath, his voice becoming magnetic: "Fatty, you've finally figured it out... Now you know why, out of so many people at school, you're the best friend of mine?"

"Someone like you... is a loli in my eyes."

"No, no, no, I never accepted your Golden Yuan Technique." Mao Rui waved his hands repeatedly. "You should stick with this guy... By the way, what is she to you? A mature woman?"

Xiang Ning laughed and cursed, "Go to hell! They traded something with me, it's not like I gave it to them for free."

He's listening, watch out, he might get you later.

"So what if I listened..." Mao Rui said dismissively, then sighed, "What a pity, those guys were planning to team up and act together."

Even if I don't get many points, it's good to go out and explore!

"It's so boring staying here..."

"You still dare to go out? Aren't you afraid of dying...?" Xiang Ning said with some admiration.

"Who told you to say before that there were high-level martial artists in the secret realm as a backup? They thought that if they were careful, nothing would go wrong..."

"Fatty, stop talking nonsense. This isn't some kind of secret. Do you think I'm the only one who knows it?"

Even if I don't say anything, they'll still go out to their deaths.

"That's true." Mao Rui nodded, paused for a moment, and then suddenly said, "Cui Qi hasn't returned yet..."

Xiang Ning was taken aback. Cui Qi was the other one of the three from their school.

Shenwu Affiliated High School is a high school directly under Shendu Martial Arts University. As an outstanding student, Cui Qi is naturally no less capable and has already reached the peak of the Unfailing Realm!

But now, most people have returned to Shitai;

Those who didn't return were either fools who couldn't see the situation clearly, or they were already...

"Perhaps he's found a place to hide."

......

Time passed quickly, and night fell.

There is no moon, no stars, and certainly no sun in the Seventh Secret Realm.

But there is also a distinction between day and night;

The way to distinguish them is that the brighter light indicates daytime;

The light was dim...it was nighttime.

As for where the light source came from... the trial participants really didn't know, and the information provided by the military didn't mention it either.

Some people have already come down from the stone platform to search for food and water nearby;

Chu Yuan was still cultivating with his eyes closed, and his body remained motionless.

A small figure carrying several backpacks walked over and stopped not far from Chu Yuan, hesitating for a few steps.

Xiang Ning recognized her as the girl who had been winking at Chu Yuan earlier.

He asked in a harsh voice, "What?"

"I...I need to speak with Chu Yuan..."
