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

Although Xiang Ning said this, he knew he couldn't blame Chu Yuan.

The fact that the Blood Sea Soul Locking Formation could slightly restrain Tong Han is enough to demonstrate its astonishing power!

After all, even when he used the protective talisman bestowed upon him by his family elders, he only managed to injure Tong Han... The tip of the spear in Xiang Ning's hand originally contained the full power of a sixth-realm martial artist! It was also one of his trump cards.

That's all... there really isn't any more.

A sixth-realm expert is not valuable to the Xiang family; what is valuable is how to seal martial arts techniques into artifacts without diminishing their power.

The manpower and resources consumed were staggering, making the cost-effectiveness extremely low...

"You family scions are all more cunning than the last." A figure burst out of the blood cocoon and flew out of the formation in an instant!

Several chains chased after it, trying to entangle it, but ultimately missed.

Tong Han looked rather disheveled at this moment, his clothes were tattered and he was covered in blood;

But his eyes were frighteningly bright!

His wounds were rapidly healing, and granulation tissue and bone fragments were regenerating at a rapid pace at his severed right leg!

The attack from the large formation, as well as the sneak attack from Xiang Ning and the other person, still caused him some injuries.

After thinking it over for a moment, Tong Han smiled and said, "Chu Yuan, you are indeed quite good."

We will meet again.

I originally just came to see if I could subdue Chu Yuan, but it seems that it won't be possible to resolve this in a short time.

He had more important tasks to complete and couldn't afford to waste too much time with Chu Yuan!

Who knows if Xiang Ning, or anyone else, has stored any treasures that can be used to attack powerful opponents?

His revenge was already waiting for him...

Tong Han stretched his chest and clenched his right fist, then slammed it down!

The sky seemed to darken, and a huge blood-red fist imprint obscured the sky above the stone platform!

Chu Yuan's pupils contracted, and he instantly activated the great formation with all his might!

Layer upon layer of secret patterns appeared, and crimson chains crisscrossed to form a giant net that stretched upwards!

The people on the stone platform felt a sudden chill, and the next moment they felt a strong tremor, causing them to lose their balance and fall to the ground.

There was an even stronger sense of falling, as if they were rapidly plummeting towards an abyss...

And this is not an illusion;

As all the strange phenomena subsided, Tong Han and Li Hong's figures disappeared into the horizon.

Chu Yuan looked up and saw that the secret passage that was once so close was now just a small dot hanging in mid-air.

They were currently in a large pit, surrounded by swirling dust and smoke.

Tong Han's punch... directly shattered the mountain that formed the foundation of the stone platform?

"What is he doing? Showing off his strength?" Mao Rui swallowed, his tone feigning disdain.

"Idiot! Of course, we don't want people to leave!" Xiang Ning sighed. "Can you even jump up to that height?"

Mao Rui stared blankly at the tiny dot in mid-air: "Uh..."

It's true that you can't jump in, but what's the point?

If the anomalies of the secret realm are discovered by the outside world, naturally a powerful figure will lead them out;

If the outside world doesn't discover this, once Tong Hanteng makes his move, he can easily crush them...

Chu Yuan silently repaired the Blood Sea Soul Locking Array; of course, the array was not so easy to break.

Just like back at Chenyang No. 1 Middle School, the captain of the Zhenwu Bureau directly destroyed the teaching building, but the Blood-Sucking Array was still not broken.

Once it's running, whether there's a physical carrier or not is irrelevant...

However, some of the array patterns were damaged by Tong Han's previous attacks. Although they were not rendered unusable, their power was affected.

Tong Han has left for now, but we don't know when he will come back;

And... the blood beasts that were originally surrounding them haven't left yet!

Xiang Ning asked疑惑地问道, "Just who is this guy? How did he recognize me as a member of the Xiang family so quickly?"

"His surname is Tong... I think I know who he is."

"Liu Yun, have you heard of him?"

A fair-skinned, pretty girl approached and said to Chu Yuan, "Chu Yuan, thank you."

Chu Yuan nodded: "Do you know his background?"

"I've never heard of him, but I know about the Tong family."

Xiang Ning frowned and thought for a moment: "The Tong family of the Southwest? Wasn't it wiped out more than a hundred years ago?"

"Perhaps that's why he orchestrated this incident."

Xiang Ning seemed thoughtful, and seeing Chu Yuan's somewhat blank expression, he took the initiative to explain: "The Tong family in the Southwest was once a powerful martial arts family! The founder of the family was already a seventh-realm martial artist at that time..."

However, they were later executed by the authorities, and most of the Tong family members were subsequently tortured, while a small number escaped.

Why?

"Because they've taken over the Seventh Secret Realm..." Xiang Ning thought for a moment and added, "The Great Qin Dynasty doesn't allow any family to take over a secret realm;

Although our martial arts family is prominent and has many businesses.

However... in reality, the empty fame gained outweighs the actual benefits!

Occupying a secret realm is different. For example, if the Tong family were to control Secret Realm No. 7... then the related martial arts resources would be incredibly valuable! Ordinary people might not even be able to afford a single Qi and Blood Pill.

"So, Tong Han is here for revenge?"

"Then I don't know... but the remnants of the Tong family certainly wouldn't dare to provoke the Great Qin."

Chu Yuan thought to himself, after all this time, he still still doesn't know who Tong Han is working for...

The power of the Blood Sea Soul Locking Array was insufficient to deal with Tong Han, let alone the giant beast that had not yet shown itself!

He must improve his strength as soon as possible, even if... there will be some troubles in the future!

......

"Why are you only arriving now... You're injured!?" Qiu growled, a hint of schadenfreude in his voice.

"It's alright, let's begin." Tong Han waved his hand and activated a fiery red crystal in his hand;

Secret patterns flowed across the surface, and as the flow accelerated, a tiny spatial rift appeared before the man and the beast.

Qiu hurriedly bit through the hoof and claw, controlling the gushing blood to disappear into the void;

Tong Han reached forward and sent the crystal into the spatial rift. After Qiu bled for a while, the spatial rift slowly closed...

Qiu breathed a sigh of relief. Every time he saw this fiery red crystal, he felt a sense of dread.

He could sense that the tiny crystal contained world-destroying energy!

At the very least, if one of those exploded in front of him... he would have no way to resist.

"Let's go, next place."

"How much longer until we can go and kill those humans?"

"Don't rush, it'll be soon..."

......

"Aren't you afraid of alienating all martial artists by doing this?!" Outside the Seventh Secret Realm, in an ordinary military camp, an old man with white hair and beard angrily rebuked.

The director of the Zhenwu Bureau said calmly, "Martial artists in the world? The Great Qin has not seen a new ninth realm cultivator for nearly three hundred years, and has not seen a new eighth realm cultivator for nearly fifty years!"

Even the number of people at the seventh realm is decreasing... Aren't those useless people afraid of discouraging us?!

"Do they really want the front lines to collapse, reliving the chaos of the Martial Arts Era, before they'll fight?!"

"But the trash you called trash have become the backbone of the legion!"

"Thousands upon thousands of so-called pillars of strength are no match for one true strongman!"

Change...begins today!
