All Realms and Worlds: The Lost Home

Three breaths later.

Four afterimages arrived one after another, landing steadily on the crimson rock layer outside the teleportation portal.

The four first-tier Breakthrough Realm experts remained expressionless, their empty eyes fixed on the ancient teleportation portal before them.

The leader, a first-stage Transcending Realm expert, stepped forward slightly, sensing the restless spatial power within the teleportation portal. His cold voice rang out:

"Target has entered the secret realm portal; external presence cannot be detected."

The other three first-level Breakthrough Realm cultivators focused their gazes on the teleportation gate and remained silent for a moment.

"The leader has given the order that the target must be captured, regardless of life or death."

"The target has now hidden in a secret realm; we must go in and search for them."

The leader, a first-level cultivator who had broken through to the next realm, nodded slightly and spoke indifferently:

"The three of you stay outside the door, keep watch over the surroundings, and seal off the portal exit."

"I'll first enter the secret realm to scout the situation. Once I find any trace of the target, I'll immediately send a signal."

"If I encounter danger, you must enter the secret realm to provide support immediately."

The three first-stage Breakthrough Realm cultivators nodded expressionlessly and replied, "Understood."

Having received a reply from his companion, the leader of the black-robed assassins said no more. He activated an energy barrier around himself, took a step forward, and plunged straight into the dark portal to the secret realm.

Om-!

The spatial ripples trembled slightly, and the next second, his figure completely disappeared into the canyon.

……

the other side.

Inside the ancient, secret realm.

Compared to the scorching, desolate, blood-red wilderness outside, the environment of this secluded secret realm is completely different.

The entire secret realm was shrouded in a dark, emerald-green mist. Towering ancient trees rose from the ground, vines entwined the old trees, and the ground was covered with damp, dark brown soil. The air was filled with a rich scent of vegetation and decay.

The secret realm was deathly still and eerily quiet; not even the chirping of insects or the roar of beasts could be heard. The deathly silence sent chills down one's spine.

The moment he landed, he immediately activated his senses, scanning the surrounding dark and dense forest, preparing to search for Junyi's whereabouts.

But just as he gained his footing—

Boom!!!

A deafening roar suddenly erupted in the dark, dense forest overhead!

The once calm, dark green mist instantly erupted into chaos, with raging, primal energy gathering and taking shape high in the sky.

A giant battle axe, spanning hundreds of meters, with an ancient and dark body covered in ancient and barbaric patterns, materialized out of thin air!

The axe exuded overwhelming power, its savage aura crushing the entire secret realm. Its primitive and domineering killing power locked onto the black-robed assassins below!

A lazy yet chillingly murderous laugh emanated slowly from the misty sky above:

"Thank you all for following me for so long."

"Since you're so eager to capture me, I'll be kind and send you on your way."

"Take this—the Heaven-Opening Strike."

The words had barely left his mouth!

The giant, savage battle axe, carrying a world-destroying power, slashed down from above like a meteor from the heavens, with extreme brutality!

The speed was so fast that the black-robed assassins had no time to react at all!

His pupils contracted sharply, an unprecedented sense of crisis surged in his heart, and the hairs on his body stood on end!

He never expected that the fleeing target would not only fail to escape the secret realm, but would instead conceal his whereabouts in advance and ambush above the teleportation portal's landing point, waiting for him to come to him on his own!

"Arrogant!!"

The assassin roared, not having time to think, and unleashed his first-level Breakthrough Origin without reservation!

With his hands moving rapidly, golden energy surged from his body, condensing into a massive, heavy golden palm print that blotted out the sky.

Heavenly Palm!

"A mere junior who has just broken through to the next level dares to launch a sneak attack on me?"

The black-robed assassin's eyes were full of mockery. He was certain that the opponent's attack could not break through his Heavenly Palm defense.

The next moment!

The giant battle axe and the golden palm print collided with a deafening roar!

The anticipated stalemate and confrontation did not materialize.

Sizzle—!

A piercing cracking sound echoed throughout the entire dark and mysterious realm!

Faced with the Heaven-Opening Strike, which contained the most supreme primal origin, the seemingly indestructible Heaven-Ascending Palm Print was as fragile as a piece of paper.

The golden palm print was like hot butter meeting a sharp blade, easily torn apart, crushed, and annihilated by the battle axe!

Brute force crushed them, no doubt about it!

The battle axe remained undiminished in its power, unstoppable, and cleaved straight into the body of the black-robed assassin!

Pfft—!

Blood splattered everywhere!

This top-tier expert from the Savage Hunting Group, a true first-level Breakthrough Realm expert, didn't even have time to scream before his body was cleaved in two by the giant axe.

Blood and flesh fragments were scattered all over the ground; in an instant, the secret realm of death was destroyed!

puff-

Warm, scalding blood slowly slid down the ancient, dark axe blade, dripping onto the damp, muddy, dark brown soil.

The stench of blood mingled with the stench of decaying vegetation, slowly spreading through the dark and tranquil secret realm.

On the ground, the black-robed assassin, who had been cleaved in two by the Heaven-Opening Strike, lay frozen and stiff, his black robe stained with crimson blood, a horrifying sight.

Within the desolate, dense forest, a gentle breeze rustled the branches and leaves of the towering ancient trees.

rustle--

The soft rustling of leaves broke the brief silence.

High in the sky, Junyi slowly put away the Savage Battle Axe that had been floating in mid-air.

The vast and violent primal energy flowed back into his limbs and bones like a tide along the battle axe.

The boy's figure was hidden in layers of dark green mist, half of his body obscured by a thick, ancient tree, appearing and disappearing intermittently.

He lazily stretched his aching wrists, gently turned his neck, and heard the bones cracking. A trace of lingering murderous intent remained in his eyes.

call--

After a long while, Junyi exhaled a long, turbid breath, his chest heaving violently, and his tense muscles slowly relaxed.

The wild ferocity that was originally poised to strike and ready to engage in a second round of fighting has also subsided considerably.

He had originally prepared himself to fight it for dozens of rounds and even be forced to consume a large amount of his own essence.

However, the entire battle lasted less than three breaths from beginning to end.

Completely crushed, without a ripple.

"I never expected this..."

Jun Yi lowered his eyes, glanced at the mangled corpse on the ground, a playful smile playing on his lips, and murmured to himself:

"This first-level Breakthrough Realm cultivator is far too weak."

To be honest, he was somewhat wary before the war started.

The assassins trained by the extraterritorial hunting group are highly coordinated, ruthless, and have rich combat experience, far surpassing ordinary cultivators of the same level.

Furthermore, with the opponent's orthodox first-level breakthrough realm as a bonus, in a one-on-one situation, he is definitely a tough nut to crack.

Who could have predicted that the opponent's prized defensive technique, the Heavenly Palm, would be as fragile as a piece of paper that could be torn with a single puncture in the face of his own Savage Heaven-Opening Strike?

He didn't even have a chance to make a second move before being instantly killed by an axe.

"It seems that the 'Wilderness Devouring Heaven Technique' I'm cultivating is far more outrageous than I anticipated."

Junyi raised her hand, gently rubbing her palm, a hint of realization and ecstasy flashing in her eyes.
