He began his journey to becoming a true immortal by causing others to fail their tribulations.

Facing the menacing Scorpion-tailed Tiger, Xiao Meng charged ahead and blocked its attack.

Xun Yan, who was behind, was not idle either. He raised his hand and summoned a series of flying swords wrapped in lightning, which went straight for the weak point of the Scorpion-tailed Tiger.

The two already had excellent teamwork, which made Scorpion Tiger very uncomfortable, and this time Xun Yan also had Mu Qingrou on his side.

Her Azure Phoenix Spirit Fire transformed into a blue firebird, swooping down from above and engulfing the Scorpion-Tailed Tiger in flames.

The three worked together to completely subdue the scorpion-tailed tiger.

Not only did they not give the scorpion-tailed tiger the upper hand, they didn't even give it any chance to escape.

The other inner disciples couldn't help but admire it upon seeing it.

"We had the numerical advantage before, but we were still overwhelmed by this Scorpion-tailed Tiger. Now look at those three, are they really at the Foundation Establishment stage like us?"

"Junior Sister Mu is Peak Master Jiang's personal disciple, and Senior Sister Xiao is Peak Master Qin's nominal disciple. I can understand why they are so powerful."

"That Junior Brother Xun is also quite strong, and he has only recently come to the inner sect from the outer sect, so he has had much less time to cultivate than us."

"Could Junior Brother Xun also be a prodigy? But if he is, why hasn't anyone taken him on as a personal disciple?"

"I feel that Junior Brother Xun is qualified enough to be the Peak Master's personal disciple."

Hearing the praise from others, Huang Tao felt even more uncomfortable.

Despite having taken healing pills, his complexion remained alternating between dark and pale, as if the pills had no effect.

He charged ahead, only to be instantly killed by the Scorpion-tailed Tiger.

If it weren't for the timely rescue by others, he would probably have become food for the scorpion-tailed tiger.

He was already in a bad mood because he was seriously injured and lost face, but after seeing Xun Yan's fighting power, his bad mood intensified.

Although the Scorpion-tailed Tiger is fierce, it has indeed comprehended the power of the third tier.

However, while it was still capable of dealing with ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators, it became increasingly powerless against the combined attack of Xun Yan and the other two.

Moreover, it wasn't at its peak, and it still had injuries that hadn't healed.

As Xiao Meng's spear pierced the scorpion-tailed tiger's throat, the ferocious beast's eyes became increasingly unfocused.

But before it died, its ferocity was fully unleashed, and with its last bit of strength, it used its venomous tail to stab Xiao Meng in the face.

The stab was so fast and ruthless that even Xiao Meng didn't have time to react.

If she dodges, Xun Yan and Mu Qingrou behind her are likely to be seriously injured, so she decides to take the hit.

Anyway, her special constitution allows her to detoxify, so as long as she has a breath left, she can recover.

At most, it just takes a long time to recover.

clang--

With a clanging sound of metal, several flying swords blocked the scorpion-tailed tiger's dying counterattack.

Although these flying swords had cracks on their blades and were corroded by the venom of the Scorpion-tailed Tiger.

But compared to Xiao Meng, these flying swords can be said to have "died for a reason".

Seeing that its final attack had failed, the Scorpion-tailed Tiger let out a resentful roar before its massive body collapsed, becoming a gradually cooling corpse.

Xun Yan raised his hand, and several flying swords, using up their last bit of strength, pierced into the heart, head, and other parts of the Scorpion-tailed Tiger.

If this finishing blow still doesn't kill the Scorpion-Tailed Tiger completely, Xun Yan will have no choice but to accept it.

After delivering the finishing blow, Xun Yan took two steps back. "Senior Sister Xiao, Junior Sister Mu, are you alright?"

Mu Qingrou spoke first, "Senior Brother Xun Yan, I'm fine. Luckily, Senior Sister Xiao is there to support me, which makes it easier for me to perform."

After saying that, Mu Qingrou asked again, "Senior Sister Xiao, are you alright?"

Xiao Meng smiled and said, "It's okay, it was really fun to play, just a little tiring."

After saying this, she took out a pill and swallowed it, and her condition improved considerably.

Just as the other inner disciples were preparing to gather around, a deafening roar came from the rift in the secret realm.

Immediately afterwards, the crack in the secret realm began to expand, growing to tens of meters high and more than ten meters wide in a short time.

Sensing a terrifying aura approaching, Xun Yan immediately shouted, "Danger is approaching! Everyone, teleport back immediately!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xun Yan and the others had already taken out their teleportation jade tokens.

But at that moment, a colorless ripple spread out from the crack in the secret realm, encircling an area of ​​about a hundred miles in radius.

"Oh no! The teleportation jade token has malfunctioned!"

Someone tried to crush the teleportation jade token, only to find that the once brittle token had become incredibly hard.

Even with all his strength, he still couldn't crush the teleportation jade tablet.

There is only one explanation for this situation: there is a problem with the space in this area.

This prevents the jade token from functioning as intended.

The fact that it cannot even be crushed is enough to prove that the space in this area has been sealed off.

"Then let's retreat! We'll go back through the crack we came from!"

Xun Yan was about to turn and leave when he realized that he couldn't even fly on his sword.

"Damn it! Are you trying to wipe them all out?"

As Xun Yan cursed inwardly, a new situation arose in the rift of the secret realm.

A massive black shadow, even larger than the scorpion-tailed tiger, slowly emerged from within, resembling a small, moving mountain.

The sky was covered with thunderclouds, and lightning flashed incessantly. By the light of the lightning, everyone was able to see the other party's true face.

It was a huge black sheep; judging from the sharp horns on its head, it should be a goat.

Its body is covered in thick fur, from which hang many black vines.

The vines appear to be swaying in the wind, but it is clear that they are actually moving.

And when they move, you can see blood-red eyes growing under their fur.

This enormous black sheep exuded an ominous aura of savagery, barbarity, and bloodlust.

Just looking at it a couple of times gives me a headache.

Roar--

When the black sheep bleated, although it wasn't as deafening as before, it was still accompanied by countless babbling sounds that made people's ears ring.

"Something's not right with this thing; it's blocking out your hearing." Xun Yan transmitted this message to everyone and immediately used his spiritual power to seal their ears.

He also had a guess that this should be the Blackwood Sheep that the system had mentioned before.

Because of the dual impact on Heimu Sheep's vision and hearing, the others could only think of enduring it for a while.

After being reminded by Xun Yan, they quickly sealed off their hearing. Although they couldn't completely eliminate the effect, at least it wouldn't be as uncomfortable as before.

boom--

Seemingly disturbed by the Blackwood Sheep, a bolt of lightning struck down from the clouds, hitting the Blackwood Sheep directly.

The lightning that struck down was just ordinary lightning, and it did not cause any damage to the huge Blackwood Sheep.

However, taking advantage of this opportunity, Xun Yan and the others decisively slipped away.

Without even trying, they all knew that this thing was definitely not easy to deal with, or rather, it was beyond their current capabilities.

The most urgent task is to leave the Thunderous Secret Realm as soon as possible and let the sect's high-end combat forces handle it.

But after a quick glance, Heimu Yang's sinister eyes landed on Xun Yan, and he charged at him like a landslide.
